Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

The person who knows you best is always yourself.

Because a person can deceive anyone, but he cannot deceive himself.

Under normal circumstances, special circumstances do not count.

Of course Zhao Kuangyin knew about Xiao Jiujiu in Zhao Da's heart. Once he saw the prosperity of Kaibao years, he might have thoughts that he shouldn't have.

You see, we all have the name Zhao Kuangyin, we look the same, and have the same blood flowing in our veins. There is no reason why I can't be the emperor.

The monk can touch it, but I can't?
Zhao Kuangyin is also afraid of this situation. You want to eat hot pot and sing a song, but suddenly you are notified that the country has changed hands and another Zhao Kuangyin has usurped power?
It’s broken, I’m a substitute!

As long as he is not stupid, he will definitely not let this happen.

Li Qing thought for a while, took out a flashlight from his pocket, and handed it to Zhao Kuangyin.

"Just take this flashlight and hit Zhao Da." Li Qing introduced.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin touched the flashlight and pointed it at Zhao Da's head like a hammer.

This time, Zhao Da was beaten until his head was buzzing...

"What are you doing?!" Zhao Da finally regained his composure, and when he saw that the person who beat him was actually "himself", he couldn't help asking in fear.

"No, Old Zhao, come back." Li Qing almost died of laughter from Zhao Kuangyin: "I asked you to use this flashlight and shake it at Zhao Da, not to hit him."

Lao Zhao had some personal grudges just now.

"Oh, you should have said it earlier." Zhao Kuangyin showed no regrets at all, and even had some unfinished thoughts: "Brother, I didn't mean it just now - you don't hold grudges against me, do you?"

Zhao Da covered his head, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Don't dare, don't dare..."

The situation is stronger than the person, so what if he dares?
"This Old Zhao..." Li Shimin couldn't help laughing. When he met Xiao Erlang, he didn't say he was so suspicious of him.

It's true that Li Shimin also thinks that he is a good boy who has no intention of causing trouble, so he is not much wary of Li Xiaoer. In addition, he is the kind of person who is persecuted by his eldest brother and his third brother, and his father is still trying to sidestep him, which makes him somewhat sympathetic to the same problem.

Zhao Da: It’s so difficult for me!
Zhao Kuangyin, who had learned how to use it correctly, turned on the flashlight and pointed it at Zhao Da, and a beam of light enveloped him.

Then, six extremely conspicuous and shining large characters appeared on the top of Zhao Da's head.

He wrote, "I am not Zhao Kuangyin."

"This is a good idea." Li Shimin looked at the six big characters and said happily: "I'm not Zhao Kuangyin? You really have a way, brother Xian. In this case, even if Zhao Da pretends to be Old Zhao, it's unlikely..."

"Who says it's not?" Liu Bang was so happy that his teeth were exposed. He looked at the flashlight in Zhao Kuangyin's hand and wondered whether he should do the same to Xiang Yu.

"I'm not Xiang Yu", it's a bit fun to think about it.

Xiang Yu clearly saw that Liu Bang had evil intentions, so he stretched out his arm and tucked Liu Bang under his arm.

As a military commander, I know everything. Armpit beauty and armpit fragrance are synonymous with them. As a military commander among military commanders, Xiang Yu's masculinity is also top-notch. Liu Bang rolled his eyes at the smell and became out of breath.

"If you hang your skin, Bang Zi will be smoked to death by you." Ying Zheng reminded him kindly.

Only then did Xiang Yu let Liu Bang go. Old Liu, who had escaped alive, was panting heavily, feeling like he was surviving a disaster.

"You haven't showered in several days!" Liu Bang retched and scolded Xiang Yu: "Big man, you are committing murder!"

"Fumigating you to death does not count as murder." Xiang Yu chuckled.

What you said makes sense, but I am speechless...

These two people have been in love and killed each other for more than a day or two.

"I asked you to put this thing away..." Zhao Da looked at Zhao Kuangyin helplessly: "Are you so small-minded? Can't even trust yourself?"

"Just because you are me, I won't trust you." Zhao Kuangyin sneered repeatedly, "We are all thousand-year-old foxes, don't play Liao Zhai with me here, as soon as you stick your tail out, I know how many dung balls you are going to poop!"

Zhao Da was anxious: "Why are you so petty? You must be suspicious of your subjects!"

"You guessed it right, I can do anything to release my military power over a glass of wine, let alone mark you, a bastard!" Zhao Kuangyin said with a sneer, not noticing his slip of the tongue at all.

Then Zhao Da is a bastard, isn't he Zhao Kuangyin also a bastard? The two of them are one person.

Lao Zhao didn't understand what was going on, or maybe he forgot about it in a hurry.

"Release military power over a glass of wine?" Zhao Da was stunned and didn't understand what was going on.

"Let me tell you this, Xiao Zhao." Li Shimin came up, coughed twice and began to educate Zhao: "In the second year of Jianlong... that is, on the ninth day of July next year, in order to prevent history from repeating itself, Zhao Kuangyin adopted Zhao Pu At a banquet, he coerced and induced Shi Shouxin and other generals to hand over their military power and go home to retire, thereby taking back the general's military power. "

"After removing the military power of generals such as Shi Shouxin, Zhao Kuangyin selected some easy-to-control people to serve as generals of the Imperial Army. After the incident of releasing military power over a glass of wine, Zhao Kuangyin's sworn brothers who were in charge of the military were all relieved of their Imperial Army positions and no longer granted them others."

When Shi Shouxin and others heard this, they looked at Zhao Pu with evil eyes.

Damn it, I don’t dare to deal with the boss Zhao Kuangyin, why can’t I deal with you?

Murong Yanzhao shouted, and the two brothers looked at each other and punched Zhao Pu in the eye, knocking out one of his front teeth. "You... you..." Zhao Pu stopped: "The injustice has its origin, and the debt has its owner. Why don't you go and check it out?"

"He is doing inspection, so we can't take action." Shi Shouxin geared up: "Old Zhao, you are not our leader. If this hatred is not brought against you, who else can we turn to?"

"Aren't you bullying honest people?" Zhao Pu was on the verge of crying.

"Hey, hey, brothers, he said he is an honest man?" Murong Yanzhao wiped his fists and laughed at Zhao Pu's words: "Among us, you, old Zhao, have the most clever ideas, now you say you Are you an honest man? Can you please stop making us laugh?”

"That's right, it's okay to lie to your buddies, don't lie to yourself." Li Xiaosan added at the side.

"What evil do you think I have done!" Zhao Pu stamped his feet and said: "Isn't this for you? If you change to a jealous emperor, let alone military power, whether you can save your life is a matter of two questions!"

"He's right, he's right." Zhao Kuangyin said immediately: "Lao Shi, it's not that I'm unreasonable, I'll introduce you to someone... Yes, hey, Lao Zhu, don't hide, you are the protagonist... "

With that said, Zhao Kuangyin poured beans out of a bamboo tube and popularized Zhu Yuanzhang's glorious deeds to the generals.

After hearing this, all the generals knelt on the ground and thanked Zhao Kuangyin for not killing him.

Just like after a certain incident, the roommates all knelt down to thank each other for not doing anything to them.

There is a living example right in front of you. It’s impossible not to be afraid.

It has to be said that the emperors are all CPU masters, which also proves a question from the front - is this CPU... a required course for the emperor?
However, there is also a glorified saying, which is called the art of the emperor's mind, and good children should not learn it.

After the Chenqiao mutiny was dealt with in the following week, Chai Rong insisted on going to the Song Dynasty to see how the old Zhao family was embarrassed.

This is so embarrassing... The Song Dynasty has a lot of them. The first time it came to light was the incident of catching shrimp farmers in the Donkey Cart Rally around the Gaoliang River during the Taiping and Xingguo years. The second time it was humiliating was Yongxi's Northern Expedition. The third time was the Chanyuan Alliance. The fourth time was when Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty was granted Zen status. The fifth time it was The Battle of Haoshuichuan...

The ancients said it well, victory and defeat are common things for military officers. Please try again, heroes... But you, Song Dynasty, are a bit too much. It is not victory and defeat that is common for military officers - but defeat and defeat.

You see, people led the Tang Dynasty. Although they lost a person when the country was founded and were blocked on the Wei River - of course, if this happened to the Song Dynasty, they would feel very glorious, but Li Shimin felt very shameful - but the Tang Dynasty was only four years later. In the fourth year of Zhenguan, the organizers were captured back to Chang'an and allowed to dance their youth in the Tai Chi Hall.

If we really want to talk about shame, we have to start with Wu Zhou.

Even the Ming Dynasty, although it failed once or twice in the Northern Expedition, generally speaking, it still won, and the first time the Ming Dynasty was embarrassed was the Tumu Fort many years after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

In contrast, the Song Dynasty fell into a deadlock as soon as Zhao Kuangyin died. And the succeeding kings, starting from Zhao Kuangyin, are like weasels laying mice, one litter is worse than the other.

Zhao Kuangyin originally wanted to ask Li Shimin to train future monarchs of the Song Dynasty, but Lao Li refused with a look of horror.

Li Qing felt sorry for his brother Li, so he angrily scolded Zhao Kuangyin.

"You talk about the emperor, how many emperors of the Song Dynasty have been replaced in one term? Can you change it? Change the soup without changing the medicine! Brother Li also has a reason to say, who am I leading? I am leading the officials of Zhenguan. Shining generals. Who are you people? You want me to lead you? What level are you, the kings and ministers of the Song Dynasty? With just a few of them, even Fan Yongna can become the governor to resist Xixia. Can he resist? ? Can't resist, you know he doesn't have the ability?"

"If we continue, we will lose to Annan. After we lose Annan, we will lose to Dali. After we lose Dali, we will lose to the natives. Then there will be no more losses."

"On the other hand, in fact, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were not weak in terms of cultural level, especially Zhao Ji..." Lao Zhu stood aside and Chai Rong looked at Li Qingming who was complaining and felt angry.

"Oh, thank God..." Li Qing hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "You are a monarch and minister like this. You have not laid a good foundation. You are partial to science and emphasize culture and military affairs. Can you guarantee me that you will defend the battle in Haoshuichuan or Bianliang?" , can he win such a crucial war? To be pragmatic, I advise you Zhao Song to reattach the broken leg and understand the concept of relaxation of civil and military ways. Xiao Li (Li Gang of Tokyo) ) is pretty good, why did you replace him? You were completely defeated in Bianliang, and even the concubines in the harem were arrested and imprisoned. How can you explain it to me?"

"Stop talking, stop talking..." Zhao Kuangyin covered his face, ashamed.

The shame of Jingkang was always painful in his heart. Even if Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan were not his descendants, they were still surnamed Zhao after all, so they couldn't escape at all.

"Let's pause for a moment about the Jingkang period..." Zhao Kuangyin sighed: "My troops are at Brother Chai..."

As soon as the word "Brother Chai" came out of his mouth, he was punched by Chai Rong.

"Fuck your mother, my surname is Guo!" Chai Rong cursed angrily.

"Brother Guo... help him fight at Brother Guo's place..." Zhao Kuangyin said helplessly: "I am temporarily too busy to take care of him, so why not go to another place, such as going to Yingzong or Shenzong."

"There is nothing good to see in Zhao Shu," Li Qingrui commented on Song Yingzong: "He died four years after taking the throne. He had no merit and no fault. Of course, he may have died before he had time to show his mediocrity..."

Li Qing was not lying. Since Zhao Shu came to the throne, he could be regarded as Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, and continued to appoint Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu, Fu Bi and others who were reformist ministers during Renzong. In view of the bad governance since Renzong, Zhao Shu raised the issue of redressing the long-standing malpractices to the ruling ministers and solicited the opinions of the ministers. He also issued an edict to extend the transfer period of officials at all levels, which to a certain extent alleviated the "redundant officialdom" "The phenomenon put pressure on the imperial government's finances. In order to recruit talents and select talents for the country, Zhao Shu ordered the ministers to recommend talented people to fill the posts. However, during the Yingzong Dynasty, the economic situation did not ease, and making ends meet became the norm for the Yingzong Dynasty.

As for Song Shenzong Zhao Xu, there was a more critical node - in the fourth year of Yuanfeng, Xixia Huizong Li Bingchang wanted to cede territory to negotiate peace with Song Dynasty, but was imprisoned by the Empress Dowager Liang. Zhao Xu believed that the opportunity to capture Xixia had arrived, and took advantage of this perfect opportunity to launch a five-pronged campaign against Xia.

At the end of November, Song general Liu Changzuo attacked Lingzhou City. Just when he was about to enter the city, the commander-in-chief Gao Zunyu was jealous of his achievements and sent envoys on flying horses to stop him. As a result, the opportunity was delayed and the attack was unable to be captured for a long time. Being flooded by the Xixia Jue River, the Song army was forced to retreat.

Li Xian led the Song army on Xihe Road to capture Lanzhou on the second day of September and built a city there. Zhao Xu adopted Li Xian's suggestion and changed Xihe Road to Xihe Lanhui Road in the first month of the following year.

In this battle, the Song army only occupied the Yin, Shi, Xia, and You states and some military key points on the north side of Hengshan Mountain, leaving Xixia unable to cultivate more than 200 miles along the Hengshan Mountain. But compared to the original intention of annihilating Xixia, the results were indeed average. But for the Song Dynasty, a country that had been unable to win foreign wars all year round, it was already a shot in the arm.

Later, Zhao Xu's ambition to destroy Xia became even stronger. He adopted Xu Xi's suggestion, built Yongle City, and stationed troops there, hoping to trap the Xixia army in Xingzhou. Unexpectedly, Xixia dispatched more than 300,000 troops to besiege the city, and Yongle City fell. The Song army suffered more than 200 casualties among its generals and more than 200,000 civilians and craftsmen. The battle report reached Bianjing, and Shenzong mourned before the court.

From then on, Zhao Xu also lost his fighting spirit and continued to maintain the original tribute peace agreement with Xixia.

Li Qing felt that it would be better to go to the northwest region where Yuanfeng was four years old. After all, it was actually possible to complete the five-pronged expedition to Xia in one battle.

Besides, there were not only wars during the Yuanfeng period, but also "Huaimin did not sleep".
