Chapter Sixteen Man Jianghong

"I am so angry that I lean on the railing, and the mist of rain stops. I look up, look up to the sky and roar, my heart is strong. Thirty years of fame and dust, eight thousand miles of clouds and moon. Don't wait for a while, your young head will turn gray, and you will feel empty and sad. Jingkang is ashamed,

It has not yet snowed; the hatred of the ministers, when will it be extinguished? The long chariots trampled it, and the Helan Mountains were missing. The ambitious people were hungry and ate the meat of the Huns, and laughed and drank the blood of the Huns. Let’s start from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky!"

Everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yang actually started reading "Man Jiang Hong" on the blackboard. Zhang Yang's voice was slightly hoarse, very masculine, and full of penetrating power. Even the old professor kept nodding.

, if we just judge from the recitation, this child is undoubtedly very good, expressing the excitement and momentum in Yue Fei's words.

"Teacher, from the perspective of lyrics, Yue Fei's "Man Jiang Hong" is worthy of being an eternal term. However, from an ideological point of view, "Man Jiang Hong" still has great limitations..."

Zhang Yang's expression suddenly changed and he started talking calmly. Everyone was stunned for a moment.

"how do I say this?"

The professor's expression suddenly became solemn. He suddenly felt that this child who had sneaked in with a wretched look had changed. His eyes were shining with wisdom and confidence. The old professor had only seen it twice in his life, and recently

He had seen it several times in a row over the past few days, and coincidentally, he was also sitting in Zhang Yang's position the other time.

"It is undeniable that this is a famous patriotic poem that has been praised through the ages. It is certain that among the vast number of poems in our country, no poem has such a profound social impact as this poem, and there has never been as exciting a poem as this poem.

, the power to inspire people to kill the enemy and go to the battlefield. This word expresses Yue Fei's sincere heart to serve the imperial court. It is very moving and touching. Moreover, the whole word is like a river flowing straight, twisting and reverberating, and the inspiration is like gold and stone..."

"Well, continue!"

The old professor nodded, and the other students were also stunned. They didn't expect that Zhang Yang, who didn't like "Man Jiang Hong", would praise this poem so much. Now, they are all looking forward to seeing why Zhang Yang doesn't like this eternal noun.

.

"Actually... I like this term. What I like most is Yue Fei's heroic spirit and his unworldly spirit of riding a horse on the Huns. However, the term Yue Fei has great limitations. First of all, he only encourages fighting, but does not

With the courage to open up frontiers and split the land, he only wanted to drive the foreigners out of the picturesque mountains and rivers of the Song Dynasty, and never thought of incorporating the foreigners' territories into the territory of the Song Dynasty. One of the sentences, "Purch up the old mountains and rivers" explains his thoughts,

Of course, this is just one of them..."

"What about the second one?"

The old professor nodded and stared closely at Zhang Yang. It must be said that Zhang Yang pointed out the limitations of Yue Fei's thinking. At that time, Yue Fei just wanted to stabilize the Song Dynasty and never thought about expanding the territory of the Song Dynasty. In fact,

, both the Xiongnu and other races that invaded the Song Dynasty at that time became the Chinese nation.

"Second, Yue Fei was right to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic under the circumstances at the time. However, this also caused his ignorant character. When faced with a choice between loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, he chose loyalty to the emperor. In his eyes, loyalty to the emperor

More important than patriotism, "Jingkang's shame has not yet been resolved; the hatred of the ministers, when will it be destroyed?" This place illustrates General Yue's thoughts. Of course, this was caused by the environment at the time. After all, the emperor at that time was the symbol of the country.

, Loyalty to the emperor means loyalty to the country..."

"I don't know, when all students face this choice, will you be loyal to the emperor or to the country?" Zhang Yang paused and looked around.

Everyone was silent for a while. Although they had thought about this issue, they had never overturned Yue Fei's patriotic thoughts from this point of view. From the perspective of modern people, there is no doubt that Zhang Yang's statement is more rational. When the country is in danger,

There is no need to consider whether to devote oneself to a certain political party or to the country. Everyone will choose the country. A regime can collapse, but a country cannot be destroyed. Everyone knows this truth.

"This classmate, do you think there are any famous generals in the Northern Song Dynasty who can compare with Yue Fei?" the old professor nodded and asked.

"There are too many famous generals in the Northern Song Dynasty who can be compared with Yue Fei..." Zhang Yang suddenly felt that countless Northern Song Dynasty figures were pouring out of his head.

"Well, tell me." The old professor smiled.

"Although Zhao Kuangyin was the founder of the Northern Song Dynasty and was regarded as a noble person, he was a general of the Later Zhou Dynasty in the Five Dynasties. He was inspected before being promoted to the palace for his military exploits and commanded the imperial army. Chen Qiao rebelled and seized the power of the Later Zhou Dynasty and founded the Song Dynasty. He named it Song

It took three years to quell the internal opposition forces, and then carried out military operations to unify the country. It adopted the strategic approach of moving from south to north, first easy and then difficult, and fought for more than ten years to pacify the separatist regimes in Jingnan, Houshu, Southern Han and other places. At the same time,

, took a series of measures to reform the military, political, financial, imperial examination and other systems to strengthen centralization. During his seventeenth year in office, his temple was named Taizu, and his reign was named Jianlong, Qiande, and Kaibao. During his reign, basically

He ended the split and separatism of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and played a positive role in the recovery and development of the social economy... Although he is the king of a country, I have to say that he is also an outstanding general!"

"Continue!" The old professor's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that Zhang Yang had such a thorough understanding of the founding emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty. What was rare was that he could even remember the time clearly. At this time, he was originally dissatisfied with Zhang Yang.

The students' eyes were also full of disbelief. Many people even wanted Zhang Yang to continue talking. Of course, many people also wanted Zhang Yang to make a fool of himself.

"Cao Bin, whose courtesy name was Guohua, was a native of Zhending Lingshou. In the Later Zhou Dynasty, his relatives in the imperial palace served as the military and horse supervisors of Jinzhou. After the establishment of the Northern Song Dynasty, he moved to the provincial envoys and privy ministers to accept the decree. From the second year of Qiande,

He participated in the battle to destroy Shu in Guizhou and was praised by Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin for not killing and looting indiscriminately. He was awarded the title of envoy of the Southern Academy of Xuanhui and the envoy of the Yicheng Army. In the seventh year of Kaibao, he was ordered to lead the army to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty and restrain the

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were not allowed to kill and plunder wantonly, so that Jiangning Mansion, the capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty, was protected from destruction. Soon after returning to the army, he was appointed as the privy envoy. Song Taizong Zhao □ came to the throne, added Tongping Zhangshi, and granted the title of Duke of Lu, which gained Yongxi's trust.

In the third year, Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty divided his troops into three groups to attack the Liao Dynasty. Cao Bin took charge of the Youzhou Daoxing camp and deployed the troops on horseback and land and water. He led the main force of the Song army from Xiongzhou to Zhuozhou. Due to his incompetent command, he was unable to restrain his generals, resulting in the Qigou Pass War.

The disastrous defeat of the battle forced the other two armies to retreat. Therefore, he was appointed as General Youxiaowei. The following year, he was appointed as the Minister of Attendance and the Military Envoy of Wuning Army. After Song Zhenzong ascended the throne, Zhao Heng summoned him to pay homage.

Privy Councilor died of illness in the second year of Xianping at the age of sixty-nine."

"If Cao Bin had not suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Qigou Pass, then he would have been regarded as an unparalleled general. It's a pity..." Zhang Yang sighed.

"Yang Yanzhao, whose real name is Yanlang, followed Yang Ye in the expedition when he was young. In the Northern Expedition in the third year of Yongxi's reign, Yang Ye led his army to attack Ying, Shuo and other prefectures. Yanzhao was the vanguard. At the age of ten and twenty-nine, he fought under the city of Shuo Prefecture, and a stray arrow pierced his arm.

, fought more bravely, and finally captured Shuozhou. After his father's death, he took on the important task of resisting the Liao in Yanbian, Hebei. After Yongxi's Northern Expedition, Yanzhao resisted the Liao invasion in Jingzhou, Baozhou and other places. Yang Yanzhao was like his father

Yang Ye was wise, brave and good at fighting. He could share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. He would take the lead when encountering the enemy without taking any credit. He was deeply loved by the soldiers. He guarded the border for many years. His reputation was also feared by the Khitan people. He was called "Yang Liulang" by the Khitan people.

After his death, many people in Heshuo looked at the coffin and cried, and even the enemy Khitan people mourned and paid tribute. He had three sons: Chuanyong, Dezheng, and Wenguang."

"He and his father Yang Ye are both Northern Song generals that people have to respect!" Zhang Yang commented.

"continue."

The eyes of the old professor and the students in the classroom were full of shock. Zhang Yang described the reign of the Northern Song Dynasty and the military positions of the generals clearly. Even the old professor himself could not guarantee that he could be so clear.

Express the detailed history of these generals.

"Di Qing, courtesy name Hanchen, was born in Xihe, Fenzhou. He was born in a peasant family. After joining the army, he was selected to serve as Ban Zhi, the emperor's bodyguard. In the early years of Emperor Renzong's reign in the Song Dynasty, he served as the commander of Yanzhou and was famous for his bravery in the defensive war against Xixia.

, has repeatedly achieved military exploits... He has a high reputation among the soldiers, but he was not tolerated by the court in the Song Dynasty, which always took strict precautions against generals. He only served in the Privy Council for four years and was squeezed out of the court in order to make the prime minister come out to judge Chen.

Zhou. He died in Chenzhou in the second year of Jiayou. Speaking of him, he was even more frustrated than Yue Fei and died in depression in his later years..."

"Here, we also need to remember an almost forgotten name, Pan Mei, which is the 'Pan Renmei' mentioned in the novel. A general in the Northern Song Dynasty. Named Zhongxun. A famous person. He first served in the Zhou Dynasty and became an envoy to the Hakka Province.

.Pan Mei and Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin Suhou were highly regarded in the Northern Song Dynasty and after the Zhou Dynasty...Pan Mei fought in the south and the north, and played an active role in the elimination of the ten kingdoms in the Northern Song Dynasty. In the third year of Yongxi's reign, Song soldiers made three expeditions to the north of the Liao Dynasty.

At that time, Pan Meiweiyun, Ying, Shuo and other prefectures deployed their camps. Yang Ye was his deputy and led the West Route Army out of Yanmen to defeat the enemy. Soon, the East Route Army led by Cao Bin was defeated at Qigou Pass.

, Pan Mei and others were also ordered to withdraw their troops and provide cover for Yun, in response to the inward migration of the people from the four states. During the withdrawal process, Pan Mei and Wang □ and others forced Yang Ye to take risks to meet the enemy, putting him in a position of defeat, and then saw his death.

Without rescue, Yang Ye's entire army was wiped out and he was captured and died. For this reason, Pan Mei was cut off from three positions and demoted to the school inspector. The next year, he returned to the old official position. In the second year of Chunhua, he was added to Tongping Zhangshi and died a few months later.

…”

"If he had not been defeated at Qigou Pass and forced Yang Ye to die in battle, then he would not have been forgotten by history!"

"Of course, there were many famous generals in the Song Dynasty. It would take several days and nights to talk about them one by one. In fact, reading the history of the Song Dynasty basically feels the same as the history of the Ming Dynasty. A sense of desolation arises spontaneously. From 'emphasis on literature over military'

From the "Xining Reform" to the later "Yuanyou Reform", the Song Dynasty, which was already poor and weak, became even more chaotic. In the end,

I failed the assessment of 'Wenhuangwuxi'... It's sad, it's sad, it's pitiful..."



Zhang Yang talked eloquently, his voice was heavy, and most of the Northern Song Dynasty generals he talked about were unsuccessful. There was a depressing atmosphere in the classroom, and the expressions of some students looking at Zhang Yang were different from the beginning. From what Zhang Yang could do just now,

From the clear description of most of the famous generals of the Northern Song Dynasty and the final finishing comment, it can be seen that Zhang Yang is definitely not a dabbler.

"Where's my wallet?"

Seeing that everyone was thinking blankly, Zhang Yang quickly lowered his head and asked.

"...It's not on me..." The girl was stunned for a moment, and Zhang Yang's face, which had a heavy and forlorn expression just now, was filled with the kind of wretchedness that disgusted her.

"Ah! That's terrible..." Zhang Yang cried sadly.

"What's wrong?" the girl couldn't help but asked curiously.

"I've been eating bread for four days."

"..."

"Teacher, can I come in?"

As soon as Zhang Yang sat down, a young man stood at the door of the classroom, holding a few books in his hands and looking very honest. When the old professor saw this young man, his eyes actually lit up, and he nodded happily.

I thought this young man wouldn't come.

"I'm sorry, this is my seat." The young man walked straight to Zhang Yang, looking at Zhang Yang with a pair of eyes that were calm but full of determination, and his honest face suddenly became demonic.

"Ah...oh...I let you..." Zhang Yang quickly stood up and said to the old professor: "Teacher, I need to go to the toilet."

"Go and do it." The old professor turned his back to the classroom and wrote something on the blackboard.

In fact, where is Zhang Yang going to the toilet? Since his wallet is not here, there is no point in staying here. He has no interest in literature.

"Do you have any money on you?" Zhang Yang stood up and suddenly put his mouth to the girl's ear and asked.

"...Yes..." The girl's face suddenly turned red again as the hot air blew to her ears.

"Lend me ten dollars, and you can just deduct ten dollars when I get my wallet."

"oh."

"Thanks……"

Zhang Yang took the money from the girl's hand and ran out of the classroom in a hurry. He didn't think about anything now but just wanted to eat, even if it was just a box lunch.

After devouring a box lunch, Zhang Yang finished it in less than three minutes. After eating, he wiped his mouth with a look of unfulfilled satisfaction. After eating bread for several days, the rice tasted particularly good.

After finishing the meal, Zhang Yang suddenly found that he had nothing to do. It was a bit too early to go back to the dormitory. It was impossible to stay in the dormitory for another day. Besides, Zhang Yang had tortured the book for more than four days in a row. There was nothing worth reading anymore, so he went out to read it.

Do you have any money on you...

Finally, I decided to go to the library. That book could no longer satisfy Zhang Yang’s thirst for knowledge.;
