This experience eventually evolved into a legend of "entering the enemy camp on a snowy night", and as it gradually spread, this legendary story was interpreted into multiple versions.
In the upright and awe-inspiring version, the governor of Yingzhou is the embodiment of justice. He faces tens of thousands of Khitan barbarians without changing his expression, and directly denounces them based on reason. The Khitan barbarians are speechless and have no choice but to bow down." "Please search Gone with the Wind" Astronomy, novels are better and updated faster! .
In the version of "Pity for Heaven and Mercy for Humanity", the governor of Yingzhou is the savior of the world. He looked at the Khitan military camp at night and was moved by its plight. So he felt compassion and entered the camp to pardon his sins, and brought a beautiful and happy life to the Khitan people.
In the violent version of martial arts, the governor of Yingzhou is an unparalleled hero with super full force value. He and his eleven warriors rush into the enemy camp and defeat hundreds of top Khitan masters. They can only kill until the sky is dark, the sun and the moon are dark, and the Khitan is finally reborn. yield.
Of course, there is also the Sword Fairy version, where Shime’s flying swords are flying all over the sky, and magic spells are shaking the earth and the mountains...
There are also erotic versions, such as the story that the governor of the Tang Dynasty and the Khitan princess had to tell, or the story of a muscular man who conquered hundreds of women so that the Khitan men were ashamed...
No matter how the story spreads and how unreliable the content, there is no doubt that when the news came out that the Khitan people had given up resistance, and when Li Chengzhong came out of the Khitan camp calmly, the tens of thousands of soldiers waiting outside immediately cheered. The ground was shaken, and passionate shouts erupted in the sky above Western Liaoze.
"Captain Wansheng!..."
"Yingzhou is victorious!..."
"The Tang Dynasty is victorious!..."
This night, Li Chengzhong's prestige reached its peak!
Once Li Chengzhong got rid of his inner thoughts, all negotiations became faster and faster.
Li Chengzhong decided to preserve the Khitan ethnic group and give the Khitan people a way to continue to live. However, he could not give up and allow this nation to have a viable second rise.
Li Chengzhong's first sword swung at Die Labu.
Through painstaking research and analysis of the Khitan people in the past few years, combined with the understanding of later generations, Li Chengzhong gradually had a clear idea of the rise of the Khitan people. Of course, this idea only existed in his heart and belonged to This is an absolutely personal opinion, because the incredible experience of traveling through time cannot be explained clearly to others.
Li Chengzhong believes that the reason why the Khitan was able to establish the Liao Dynasty in later generations was based on several main reasons.
The first of course is the disintegration of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, just speaking of the current situation, even if there are many vassal towns in the Tang Dynasty, endless wars in the Central Plains, fighting in the court, and the majesty of the emperor, the military front of the Tang Dynasty is still not something that the Khitan can contend with. .Even if it is just the two towns of Lulong and Hedong, which border the Khitan control area, just take one of them, and for the Khitan people, it is like looking up at the mountains and sighing.
Li Chengzhong's understanding was actually confirmed in the official history of that time and space. In the early stages of the rise of the Khitans, their main targets were all ethnic groups in the grassland, and the battle at the Lulong border had been a small one. In this state, to put it bluntly, he took advantage of the situation and robbed him, and then fled quickly. He never dared to take advantage of Lu Longhu's beard, let alone the powerful town of Hedong. The loss of Yingzhou outside Guan was due to factors such as Lulong's army being unbearable, and The reason why Lu Longjun himself was too busy fighting in Hebei to take care of others.
Historical facts prove that when Liu Shouguang seized the position of Jiedu and surrendered to Xuanwu, for more than ten years after Lu Long got a chance to breathe, the Khitan people were driven back to their original shape by Liu Shouguang, and they donated large amounts of property to Lu Long every year.
Therefore, the rise of the Khitans actually relied on the disintegration after the fall of the Tang Dynasty. It was in the middle and late Five Dynasties that they really set their sights on the Central Plains.
The second reason for the rise of the Khitans was that they captured Bohai and Silla at the perfect opportunity when the Tang Dynasty was unable to travel north. Especially Bohai, a country that had been established for two hundred years without war, provided the Khitans with huge amounts of money.
With their wealth and huge manpower, the Khitan people also obtained the civilization and craftsmanship from the Bohai people that were in the same line as the Tang Dynasty. As a result, the Khitan people exploded overnight, laying a solid foundation for the later Liao Dynasty.
By the end of the Five Dynasties and the beginning of the Song Dynasty, during the period when the civilization of the Central Plains was at its lowest, the Liao Dynasty had always stood proudly in the world as the successor of the civilization of the Tang Dynasty. Although many scholars from the Central Plains were attached to guānxi, its civilization
The foundation of the inheritance irrefutably comes from the Bohai Sea.
There is another important reason for the prosperity of the Khitans, which can be traced back to the rise of the Diela tribe among the eight tribes. If we really talk about the later Daliao, it actually originated from the Diela tribe. It was based on the Diela tribe.
With great strength, two generations of Jieshulu and Abaoji could quickly gather the entire Khitan alliance and unify the grasslands outside the pass. This was the initial reason for tracing the origin of Shuo. Such a powerful tribe was obviously not in line with Li Chengzhong's interests, let alone Yingzhou's interests.
The first sword must be swung towards the stabbing part.
Li Chengzhong decided to split the Diela tribe, separate the Yelu clan and the Shulu clan, and establish their own new tribes. The Diela tribe occupies half of the entire Khitan alliance, while the Yelv clan and the Shulu clan occupy half of the Diela tribe.
Two-thirds, it is absolutely impossible not to split it up. After the split, the Diera section is divided into three tribes, and the strength of each tribe is similar to that of other tribes in the alliance. In this way, Li Chengzhong can sit back and relax.
Strictly speaking, the Khitan people still had surnames at this time, and each tribe and each family was actually called by the name of the place where they lived. The Yelv family was named because the place where this family lived was called Shili.
The transliteration in Khitan is "Yelü". The word "Shulu" of Shulu family is the same as this.
After the split, Li Chengzhong planned to name the Yelu clan and Shulu clan "Yelü clan" and "Shulv clan". Such a split made the two clans burst into tears because they did not have to face the humiliation that would soon come after returning to the Diela clan.
The sharp conflicts with the Brother Hua brothers and other families in the tribe completely robbed these two families of the courage to return to Buyeo City and face each other directly.
The Brother Hua brothers were obviously quite dissatisfied, but the situation was stronger than the situation. Since they had chosen to defect to Yingzhou at that time, they had to be prepared to accept Yingzhou's decision now. Li Chengzhong directly chose to ignore the dissatisfaction of the Brother Hua brothers.
Of course, Li Chengzhong will not completely ignore the interests of the pro-Tang faction in Fuyu City. He will give some sweeteners to Brother Hua and others to alleviate the pain caused by the division of the tribe.
Regarding this, Abaoji and Aping both had mixed emotions. Together with their respective tribesmen, they suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling, wondering whether they should be hostile or grateful towards the governor of Yingzhou.
After solving this urgent matter, Li Chengzhong proposed a plan to rebuild the Khitan system. He did not intend to destroy the long-distance tribal alliance system that had lasted for more than two hundred years, because this system could ensure that the nation would be passed on in a traditional way.
And it poses a great threat to the Central Plains. Such an eight-ministry alliance system has now become a ten-ministry alliance. It has a typical primitive democratic meaning, low efficiency, and mutual checks and balances, making it impossible for this grassland nation to form a real joint force.
Combining the understanding of this time and space with the history of later generations, Li Chengzhong discovered that it was precisely because of the complete destruction of the Yiti system by Shilu and Abaoji, two heroes who had shined successively in the history of Khitan development, that the Khitan ethnic groups were finally integrated into
Together, they created the peak era of the Khitan people. Ruguoméi seduced these two people, and the alliance of eight tribes of Ruguo has been continued. The Liao Dynasty that dominated the north of East Asia in future generations will never appear.
Therefore, what Li Chengzhong has to do is to continue to follow this yiti system, but of course he has to make some small changes.
The weak B-room tribe should rely on its precious blood to continue to play the role of the alliance leader Khan and continue to perform the duties of the supreme leader in the weak position. It is necessary to strengthen the respect of each tribe for the Khan and spare no effort to restore the leadership of the Khan.
Various Khitan folk customs and etiquette include the most important firewood ceremony for the Khitan people, making this important ceremony with the nature of personnel appointment and dismissal even more authoritative.
Once this plan is realized, what Li Chengzhong has to do will be relatively simple. It is just to strengthen the system construction, such as radically refining the procedures and rituals of the Chai Ceremony, just like the golden urn drawing system implemented in Tibet in later generations.
.
The position of Greater Yue created by Shilu does not need to be abolished. Instead, it can be fixed in the name of Datang. This position is very important. In the final analysis, the reason why this war to determine the ownership of the grassland broke out is very important.
A direct factor is the competition for the official position of Yue Yue.
Now the grassland has decided that Yingzhou’s previous promise to the Brother Hua brothers must also be fulfilled. This is the character that those in high positions should possess, and it is also the obligation that the government, a political institution, must fulfill if it wants to strengthen deterrence and credibility. According to
Over the past year, brother Hua and his brothers have spared no effort in supporting Yingzhou, so it is only natural that they should be given an official position greater than that of Yue.
In addition, Li Chengzhong did not want to sit back and watch Yili Jin's position go to waste. In the old Khitan system, the Diela tribe was the most powerful tribe, and its tribe was appointed as Yili Jin as usual, which was the Khitan Alliance.
The reason why such a custom was formed for military chiefs is because the military strength of the Daila tribe is superior to that of other tribes. Later, Shulu stepped on the shoulders of this Yili Jinwei and took over the military command.
Yue in Khitan means "general knowledge of military and state affairs", so Yili Jin became an empty position, enjoying only honor but no real power.
However, Li Chengzhong planned to make full use of and restore this authority, stripping off the military functions of Yue Yue and relocating them under the name of Yili Jin, but Yili Jin must accept the command of Yingzhou.
At the same time, due to the existence of the Huaiyue and Yuhou Joint Headquarters, the Khitan standing troops and the most elite military elite will be absorbed into the Huaiyue Allied Forces, so the actual military function of Yili Jin will be greatly weakened. More
The main focus is on difāng defense, and the appearance of recruiting and transporting young men to the Huaiyue Allied Forces appears in the eyes of the world, similar to the difāng "Minister of Arms" in later generations. (To be continued.)
