1754年,美国之父华盛顿还是一名血气方刚的上校军官。那时,他正率部于亚历山大市驻防,应该算得上当地的军事首脑吧。时年,弗吉尼亚州的议员选举战正打得硝烟弥漫,华盛顿也很狂热地投入了选举战,为他所支持的候选人助威。有个叫威廉·佩恩的人,是华盛顿的坚决反对派,到处发表演讲,批评华盛顿支持的候选人,为此,华盛顿很生气。某一日,华盛顿与佩恩两个冤家聚头了,并且唇枪舌剑一番激战。情急之中,华盛顿说了一些过头话冒犯了佩恩,佩恩火冒三丈,冲过去一拳将华盛顿击倒在地。当然,华盛顿也不是好惹的,他的部下马上围了过来,要教训佩恩,为他们尊敬的上司雪耻。而佩恩当胸一拳却把华盛顿打醒了。他忍痛站起来,命令摩拳擦掌的部下们跟他返回营地,眼看一场流血冲突就这样烟消云散了。
In 1754, Washington, the father of the United States, was still a fierce colonel officer. At that time, he was stationed in Alexandria and should be considered a local military leader. At that time, the election of Virginia’s legislators was filled with smoke and Washington was enthusiastically campaigning for the support of the candidates he supported. Washington was so angry that a man named William Payne, a determined opposition in Washington, gave a speech everywhere and criticized the Washington-backed candidates. One day, Washington and Payne two enemies gathered, and some fierce fighting. In desperation, Washington said some excesses offended Payne, Payne furious, rushed past to knock Washington down. Of course, Washington is not too provocative. His men immediately came around, teaching Penn and shame on their respected superiors. And Payne pounded Washington on his chest. He stood up with reluctance and ordered his gearing officials to return to camp with him, seeing a bloody conflict vanished.
