Chapter 256 Thorn on the body

Ru Gao Huan was the emperor and often said to the Xianbei people under his command: "The Han people are your slaves, husbands are farming for you, and women weave for you, and they will give you grain and silk to give you food and clothing. Why do you want to be favored?" Turning around and saying to the Han people under his control: "The Xianbei people are your guest. I got you a bucket of millet and a piece of silk to attack the thief for you and make you peaceful. Why do you be jealous of them?"

This passage vividly illustrates the rule of military groups parasitic on the country and the nature of the guest.

After more than a hundred years of melee fighting, the Hu military group that poured into the Han area began to form a political pattern since the Yongjia Rebellion, which was inundated with the Han area after more than a hundred years of melee. It was from the Northern Wei that such a political pattern began to be formed. That is, the country had a special military group, and as a permanent military force, people outside this group were responsible for raising them. However, before the Sui Dynasty, this military group was a distinctive Hu people and Hu Hua Han people, and the Han people were responsible for raising them.

Later unified dynasties, whether it was the Han Dynasty or the Hu Dynasty, maintained this pattern. The Sui and Tang Dynasties were originally in line with the dynasties passed down from the Northern Wei Dynasty. The so-called Guanlong nobles, no matter how their descendants beautify them, were representatives of the Hu military group passed down. By the founding of the Song Dynasty, the Hu people in this military group had been completely sinicized, and the Hu people who had participated in this group had become Han people again. Whether it was real Han people or fake Han people, in short, this military group had become Han people as the main body, and the conflict between the main ethnic group and the Hu Han people of this military group was covered up.

When we were young, we were beaten by others outside. If we couldn’t beat each other, we would say harshly: “Wait, I’ll go back and find someone!” Those who are more powerful would say: “Remember, I will definitely call you back in a few days!”

The child's thinking is still at the time when I was bullied this time, and I will bully it back next time. When I grow up, naturally there are still people who are as handsome as they were when they were young, but it is normal that they know that beating people is wrong. It is best to put this guy in prison and let him change this problem from then on. From the conflict between Hu and Han after the Five Barbarians invasion of China to the establishment of the Song Dynasty, the Han people in the Central Plains dynasty were still at the time when I wanted to bully it back.

In the past, the Hu people regarded us Han people as slaves, men farm for them, and women weave them for them. The representative of oppressing the Han people in this way was the Hu military group. Well, now we have turned over and replaced the people in it with Han people, and we have revenged our hatred. Of course, when the Song Dynasty was established, the Han people had not yet turned over and could not do this. It was just that the Hu people in this military group were sinicized, and the Hu people who were sinicized had their original colors and restored their Han family.

At this time, people still didn't realize that such a military group should not exist. No matter whether the regime was wary or not, the Central Plains dynasty before the fall of the Han Dynasty would not raise this special group independent of society. It was like a thorn inserted into the body. Over time, it grew into the flesh, so that they had forgotten that it should not be something on their own. Occasionally, they thought of pulling it out, but it couldn't pull it out, and it hurts very much, as if they couldn't feel it normally, so they just grew there. However, the meat around this thorn will rot, rot year by year, and eventually take their own life.

In the East and the West, they have actually experienced such a process. However, Rome was destroyed by barbarians. The barbarians of Rome from time to time will show the glory of Rome to the people around them. The Han people are too tenacious and will last for two thousand years. However, if they are tenacious, if the dynasty is replaced by a Han family, the Han people's culture, traditions, politics, etc. will not be resurrected in full blood.

This thorn has been firmly inserted into the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains. Whenever a foreign race enters the Central Plains, it will pull out the thorn and wipe it brightly again, demonstrate to the Han people, and penetrate it to a more important place.

This tradition is so unimaginable that when the Han people were oppressed to the point of destruction, they finally rose up, and the thorns naturally dissipated without pulling them. Some people think that this is the tradition of the Han regime. Some people have always missed the time when this thorns were present, saying that it was the most glorious time in China. When all races came to pay tribute, you see, even foreign races were integrated into us.

It is normal for ethnic exchanges and integration, but such a thorn from alien culture cannot make the body feel comfortable.

The thorn has the opportunity to pull out, and it is when the Yue family army marches all the way and marchs towards the restoration of the Central Plains. The Yue family army formed by Yue Fei was of course not his private army. It was the most private court army from the beginning. It was just a habit of calling the Yue family army at that time. Other generals also called it like this. Before that, the Yang family generals and the Zhong family generals were called happily.

The Yue Family Army is different from other large armies in all aspects, from the source of troops to the system of troops, and the most regular army. In particular, the Yue Family Army absorbed a large number of rebels, and the rebels came from the Baojia troops in the late Song Dynasty. In terms of military culture, the Baojia troops were exactly the thorns of the three imperial guards on their bodies, and followed the Qin and Han traditions from military culture. In addition to Yue Fei's personal charm, this army was different from all the armies of that era and showed a different temperament.

Yue Fei's death was actually simple and clear. The Jin Kingdom didn't want to fight anymore, so Song surrendered. Zhao Gou couldn't help but Qin Hui, who thought he could do this, had a chance. In order to weaken Song's military strength and to prove that Zhao Gou's court really convinced him, the Jin Kingdom asked Song to kill a general. Qin Hui, who had colluded with Jin, wanted to attack Han Shizhong, but various reasons were replaced by Yue Fei. As the enemy country, Jin was the person who proposed this matter. The mastermind of cooperation with the enemy country was Zhao Gou, the host was Qin Hui, and the accomplice was Zhang Jun.

Later generations could not understand how the monarch and ministers of the Song Dynasty would do such a thing as a vengeful person. The relatives destroyed the Great Wall and tried to dig out the truth behind it. What is the truth? The one who falsely accused Yue Fei was his general Wang Jun. The one who first framed Zhang Jun, the one who was imprisoned was Qin Hui and his accomplices, and the one who was imprisoned Yue Fei was Yang Yizhong.

The main culprits and accomplices of this case are actually very clear, but they just have to understand each other and try hard to dig out the story behind it. Some people have verified that Zhao Gou is perverted, some people have verified that Yue Fei has taken his own life, and some people have ignored the fact that Yue Fei is too capable and threatened the status of civil servants. The civil servant group wants to kill him. Yue Fei is the commander-in-chief with the best relationship with the civil servant group. He was implicated afterwards, and was mainly the war-first faction and temporary peace talks of the civil servant group.

What later generations do not want to admit is that Yue Fei was a great general who transcended the times and could bring about major political and cultural changes. He himself was different from most military generals of that era, and his Yue family army was different from other armies. Of course, later generations must also regard Yue Fei and other generals as one, and do not want to admit the disgraceful role played by military forces in Yue Fei's death.

Yue Fei's death started from the frame-up of Wang Jun, the first person to kill Zhang Jun, and then the one who took over was a traitor group among civil servants composed of Qin Hui and his accomplices. The last person ordered the killing of Yue Fei was Zhao Gou, and the other general Yang Yizhong, who was in charge. These people, together with the hostile Jin Kingdom, were the murderers who killed Yue Fei.

Later generations have a myth that always believes that as a military general, Yue Fei's military power stands on Yue Fei's side. Even if we put aside the important generals who directly participated, after Yue Fei's death, the national military power remained silent, which itself illustrates the problem.

Zhao Gou was afraid of the Jin soldiers, but the Jin soldiers did not put the knife on his neck. He ran fast enough. However, the military forces around him took the knife to him several times, and he slapped his hand. Just like he was afraid of the Jin soldiers, he should also be afraid that the military forces around him have different positions from him. If the Jin soldiers came to kill him, they had to pass the Yue Fei's level. It would be much more convenient for the military forces around him to attack him again. At this moment, as long as these generals expressed their opposition to kill Yue Fei and expressed their opposition to discuss peace, shamelessly, if the emotions in the army were like this, how dare Zhao Gou take action? This is not to say that those generals forced Zhao Gou to kill Yue Fei, or they suggested that Zhao Gou kill Yue Fei. They were very likely to have done nothing, but they did not express their opposition.

What does it mean to not express opposition? The enemy is facing a great enemy, the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, and the lives are in trouble. The military forces that should have gone to battle to kill the enemy and defend the country have acquiesced to the court's surrender, and have acquiesced to kill the best generals, without saying a word.

Don’t use these military forces because they obey the emperor and do not express opposition as excuses. The Song Dynasty did not have such loyal army, except for the Yue family army. For the army around Zhao Gou at that time, it was common for rebellion with a knife. Before and after, they were scolded and ate poorly, and even caused a rebellion just because they were in a bad mood.

The Northern Song Dynasty established a country with its army, and for more than a hundred years it would save the world's wealth to support its army. Even a dog has been raised for so many years, and it would scream when someone kicked the door. However, these hundreds of thousands of troops were silent when the court surrendered and killed the general.

Who were implicated and cleansed behind Yue Fei? The pro-war faction in the court temporarily negotiated peace-making civil servants, which was the main force to stop Zhao Gou's surrender, was eliminated. The crowd of Yue Fei's army that was incompatible with the previous military traditions was also eliminated. There was also a crowd, part of the military force, the rebel system.

After Yue Fei's death, the rebel system in the military power was greatly purged. Some people left and returned to the occupied areas to continue to fight against Jin. Some people stayed and died in depression. They raised their flags to fight against Jin, and went south to hope to join the imperial army to return to the former place of the Central Plains and save their fellow villagers. It was a waste. The military power of the Song Dynasty returned to its original track again.

Why was Xu Ping suddenly so scared? Because he had not thought about these things clearly before, but his experience and situation he was facing made him vaguely feel something about it. As soon as Tiandu Mountain won, the ministers in the court suddenly wanted to completely clear the old historical accounts, and Yu pointed directly at the imperial guards and pushed Xu Ping to the forefront.
