The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 316 There is a loyal lone person in the northwest!
On the canopy.

The territory of the Tang Dynasty once again hung in the balance.

Looking at the territory which was almost the same size as that in the early Tang Dynasty, the emperors all sighed.

……

Great Qin.

"It's hard to conquer the world...and it's even harder to keep it..."

I simply can't help thinking about those two rebellious sons.

One is silly and the other is stupid.

Our ancestors of all generations have worked hard and after five hundred years, they have achieved the hegemony of the Holy King!

The last fourteen years are gone...

Ying Zheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

I don't want to marry and borrow luck...

But this world cannot perish in the second generation.

The great cause of our ancestors cannot be ended in such a hasty manner!

His eyes opened wide and a gleam of light flashed!
"Bring another 500 kilograms of memorials!"

……

Big man.

"It is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to keep it..."

Liu Bang looked at the territory of the Tang Dynasty in the sky and lamented how difficult it was to be an emperor.

"The Han Dynasty had many wise rulers, but it only lasted four hundred years."

"It's so difficult!"

Lying quietly in his arms, Lu Zhi couldn't help but roll her eyes.

……

On the canopy.

The territory of the Tang Dynasty was transformed into a map hanging on the red wall.

In front of it,
The figures of several emperors disappeared one by one.

But every figure will eventually caress the Hehuang land on the territory and can't help but sigh.

……

【After the An-Shi Rebellion broke out. 】

……

Li Longji:!!!

Gao Lishi: Your Majesty said please don’t mention this matter anymore.

Yang Yuhuan: Oh.

……

[The troops stationed in Hexi and Longyou were transferred eastward to suppress the rebellion, and Tubo took the opportunity to occupy the Hehuang area, which lasted for nearly a hundred years.]

[During the reign of Emperor Daizong of Tang, Prime Minister Yuan Zai had planned to recover Hehuang, but the plan had not yet been implemented and Yuan Zai was executed, and the recovery plan came to nothing.]

[During the reign of Emperor Xianzong of Tang, he had always wanted to wait until the Hebei vassal states were pacified before sending troops to Hehuang, but he suddenly passed away in the 15th year of Yuanhe.]

【Emperors Mu and Jing enjoyed themselves, but Emperor Wen was powerless. 】

[In this way, Hehuang was lost for nearly a hundred years.]

[During the reign of Emperor Wuzong of Tang, the last Tibetan king, Langdarma, was assassinated, after which a large-scale civil war broke out and the country's power declined rapidly.]

[After Wuzong learned of this, he began to prepare his troops and horses to recover Hehuang.]

【But he died suddenly the following year.】

[The matter of recovering Hehuang has never been resolved.]

……

On the canopy.

The Hexi area, which was originally occupied by Tubo, suddenly lit up with a bright red.

The inconspicuous scarlet color quickly expanded in the blink of an eye!
The areas of Hexi and Longyou were all recovered!

And in the vermilion, three large characters sparkled brightly.

『Zhang Yichao』

……

[In February 849 AD, the three prefectures of Qinzhou, Yuanzhou, and Anlezhou, which were originally controlled by Tubo, and seven other fortresses such as Shimen, rose up in rebellion and returned to the Tang Dynasty.]

【Tang Xuanzong ordered troops from Jingyuan and other places to be dispatched to support them, and they successfully took over these territories.】

[On the eighth day of the eighth month, more than a thousand elders from the three states came to Chang'an to pay homage to the emperor, and Emperor Xuanzong personally went up to the Yanxi Gate to meet them.]

[The people on the border cheered and danced, took off their Hu clothes, put on their hats and belts, and the spectators all shouted "Long live the king".]

[At the same time, an imperial decree was issued: recruiting common people to reclaim land in the three states and seven passes, and exempting them from rent and tax for five years.

"The officials of the four provinces who are able to cultivate the land in the garrison areas shall be provided with cattle and grain by the government. The profits from the salt in Wenchi can be used to support the frontier areas, and the Ministry of Revenue shall be responsible for its management.

The soldiers stationed in the three states and seven passes were all given double the amount of food and clothing, and the supply was repeated every two years.

Forts and barriers were built on the roads to allow merchants to travel and trade, and the children of soldiers on garrison duty to pass on family messages, so that no one at the checkpoints could detain them.

If there are any counties and prefectures lost in the Shannan and Jiannan borders, they should also be recovered according to their ability.”]

[In October, Tang sent troops to capture Weizhou (now northwest of Wenchuan, Sichuan)]

[In December, troops were dispatched to recapture Fuzhou (now north of Nanping, Sichuan)]

[In February 851 AD, a man who claimed to be the acting governor of Shazhou (located in present-day Dunhuang City, Gansu Province) sent envoys to request surrender.]

[He brought a piece of news that shocked the Tang Dynasty.]

【Hehuang has been recovered! 】

【The acting governor of Shazhou was Zhang Yichao.】

……

{Zhang Yichao is here! Guiyi Army!}
{There was a loyal man in the northwest, who, through three generations, restored more than 4,000 miles of territory to the Tang Dynasty!}
{Li Chen: Zhang Yichao and I scored 82 points together! (dog head)}

{Liu Chan: You can’t do that. I’m still one step ahead of Zhao Yun (dog head)}
……

Ji Han.

Everyone looked at Zhao Yun and then at Liu Chan.

"Adou is so brave!"

Everyone who had been trying to hold back their laughter was now amused and burst into laughter.

Only Liu Chan looked embarrassed and at a loss.

……

Datang.

Li Shimin glanced at the sky and said to his ministers:

"Do you have any silk scarves?"

All the ministers shook their heads in response.

"Someone, prepare a silk scarf!"

"There is a lonely loyal person in the northwest... I'm afraid I'll cry again."

……

On the canopy.

The ancient city was surprisingly dark, cold and quiet.

suddenly,

A middle-aged warrior in bronze helmet and iron armor led hundreds of brave men holding torches and swords and spears, galloping on horseback on the street leading to the provincial capital, shouting as they ran:
"Revolt and return to Tang! Revolt and return to Tang!"

Doors in all the streets and alleys were opened one after another.

Countless men and women rushed out, waving all kinds of weapons.

The Shazhou garrison commander was frightened by this situation and fled into the vast Gobi desert on horseback.

Yellow sand fills the sky.

The warrior in armor looked back at the city wall.

The word "Shazhou" is written on the city wall.

The Sanchen flag is fluttering in the wind.

……

【Zhang Yichao, a native of Shazhou, whose ancestral home is Nanyang.】

[The ancestors were generals of the Tang Dynasty and served as ministers of the Ministry of Works of the Tang Dynasty. They moved to Hexi because of their posts, and the family became a wealthy family in Shazhou, Hexi.]

[Shazhou, with its seat in Dunhuang, Gansu, was under the jurisdiction of Hexi Military Town.]

[After the An-Shi Rebellion, Tubo successively captured Liangzhou, Ganzhou, and Suzhou. In order to gain strategic control, the Tang Dynasty moved the Hexi military garrison from Liangzhou to Shazhou.]

……

On the canopy.

The isolated city of Shazhou was surrounded by the Tibetan army.

And within the provincial capital within the city.

A soldier in armor strangled the official sitting at the top.

"From now on, I will be in charge of state affairs!" The generals, officers, and staff looked at the scene indifferently.

Hearing this, they all knelt down and said with their hands folded:
"Here!"

……

[During the reign of Emperor Daizong of Tang, Li Yu, Shazhou was surrounded by the Tubo army. Shazhou Governor Zhou Ding decided to burn down the city walls and flee eastward to the Tang Dynasty, but was opposed by his people.]

[The soldiers’ reason was simple: Shazhou was their hometown, and they would not give it up even if they had to fight to the death.]

[And if we give up Shazhou, there will be no barrier west of Chang'an, and Tubo will become even more rampant. ]

【Zhou Ding insisted on his own way, and Shazhou's military commander Yan Chao climbed a high place and led the crowd to strangle Zhou Ding to death. He then took charge of the state affairs and announced that Shazhou would continue to resist Tubo to the end.】

[At that time, the most lacking thing in Shazhou was food. Yan Chao took out money from the treasury and asked the people to exchange food for one piece of silk for one bushel of wheat. In this way, he held the city for two years.]

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
"Wherever the heart goes, the blade will protect it."

Liu Che patted the brocade couch beside him and spoke earnestly.

"Since ancient times, there has never been a shortage of loyal ministers and good generals."

"It all depends on whether the superiors can recognize and employ people."

"The world's talented people are like crucian carp swimming across the river, and it is inevitable that some will be missed."

"This Yan Chao is also a loyal and courageous person."

Seeing the officials who were willing to kill their superiors to defend the isolated city, Wei Qing could not help but sigh:
"When the world is at peace, these loyal and righteous men are not well-known."

"After the world is in chaos, we have to rely on these righteous people to demonstrate benevolence and righteousness."

"The Tang Dynasty is fortunate, but I am unfortunate."

"If there is a choice, I'm afraid Zhang Xun, Guo Xin and others would not want to be loyal in times of crisis."

These words silenced Liu Che.

Loyal minister, loyal minister...

Every emperor loves loyal ministers.

But when will the true loyal ministers emerge?

Only when the country is destroyed and the family is ruined...

……

[In 781 AD, the second year of Emperor Dezong's Jianzhong reign, Shazhou, which had a population of only to but had fought foreign wars for more than ten years, finally reached the end of its rope.]

[In order to protect the people of Shazhou, Yan Chao made an agreement with the Tubo commander Shang Qixiner that he would surrender on the condition that the people of Shazhou could not be relocated.]

[Afterwards, officials and civilians in the city changed to wearing Tibetan clothing, but every time they worshipped their ancestors, they would change into Han clothing to show their loyalty to the Tang Dynasty.]

[After Shazhou fell, the people were brutally suppressed by the Tibetan army.]

[“The able-bodied men were reduced to slaves, farming and herding, while the frail and old were killed, or their hands and eyes were cut off and their bodies were gouged out, and then abandoned.”]

[If Han people walked on the street, they had to bow their heads and bend their backs and could not look directly at Tibetans, let alone sit on equal terms with them.]

[Yan Chao, the governor of Shazhou, was eventually assassinated by the Tubo tribe by "putting poison in his boots" because of his stubborn attitude.]

[From then on, the towns in the Western Regions fell for decades.]

[As time passed, no one remembered that the Tang Dynasty once owned this land, and no one remembered that there were still Tang Dynasty survivors on this land.]

[Those abandoned children of the Tang Dynasty were subjected to high-pressure rule. They were not allowed to wear Tang clothing or speak Tang language. The old and weak had their hands cut off and their eyes gouged out, and were abandoned in the wild.]

[Only during festivals would these survivors dare to wear Tang clothing and worship in the direction of Chang'an.]

[In 836 AD, Emperor Wenzong sent an envoy to the Western Regions, passing through Gan, Liang, Gua, and Sha states]

[When these survivors saw the Tang envoys passing by, they all lined the streets to welcome them, crying and asking, "Does the emperor still care about the lives of the trapped barbarians?"]

……

Datang.

"I am still kind-hearted..."

Li Shimin slowly stood up, put his hands behind his back and looked at the sky.

"I still want fame."

The ministers in the hall slowly lowered their heads, and a chill came from the upper seats.

Li Chengqian took a half step back, and little Li Zhi huddled into Empress Changsun's arms.

"Does the Emperor still care about the lives of the barbarians?"

"These are my sins..."

"Your Majesty..."

Li Shimin looked at his ministers calmly.

Word by word:

"I will destroy Tibet."

Sighing secretly, Wei Zheng stepped forward and said bluntly:
"Your Majesty... your master has no legitimate reason..."

Looking up at the sky, Li Shimin said calmly:
"Find."

"Estrangement."

"incite defection."

"Instigation."

"Secret bribe."

"There are plenty of ways."

"I just want results."

……

Tang Dezong Period
"woo woo woo woo!"

……

Tang Wenzong Period
"woo woo woo woo."

……

Tang Dynasty - Wuzong Period
"woo woo woo woo!"

"What are you whining about!"

Li Yan interrupted Li Deyu's sobbing impatiently.

"How is the border defense preparation going?"

"According to what is said on the sky curtain, Tufan is about to kill himself!"

Li Deyu wiped his tears and said with a slightly nasal tone:

"Shazhou has always been in contact with us. They are just waiting for your Majesty to issue an edict, and then they will rise up."

Li Yan stood up with his hands on his knees and paced to a standstill.

"Okay, let the spies in Tufan get ready."

"I want to take advantage of his illness to kill him!"

……

Ming dynasty.

"Does the Emperor still care about the lives of the barbarians?"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at this sentence for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.

"Alas... the Northern Song Dynasty's Chanyuan Alliance completely gave up the idea of ​​Youyun Liaodong."

"Gansu, western Liaoning, and eastern Liaoning have changed hands for so many years, and the Song Dynasty has given them up."

"After the Five Dynasties, there are the Song Dynasty... and then the Yuan Dynasty..."

"It's easy to say when the upper lip touches the lower lip."

"How many piles of bones have been shed during this period..."

……

[Gradually, the tone of the words spoken by the people of Hexi has changed, and only the Tang clothing they wear declares that they are still the people of Tang. ]

[The emperor and his court officials of the Tang Dynasty forgot that their border fortress had retreated from the Yinshan Mountains thousands of miles away to Yuanzhou, right at their doorstep, only 500 miles away from Chang'an.]

[Forget Liangzhou, this is the Silk Road of the Tang Dynasty. ]

【I forgot that Li Bai came from here to write peerless poems. 】

[I forgot that Gao Shi picked up the bold and rough style of the frontier from here. ]

[Forget the gorgeous Hu Jijing here and go to Chang'an to perform...]

【Chang'an has forgotten, but Shazhou has not.】

[Zhang Yichao, who grew up on the sandbar, has not forgotten it either.]

[“He discussed military tactics and swordplay, and studied the martial arts classics. He gained the essence of Sun Wu and Bai Qi, and saw the essence of military tactics.”]

[“Knowing that Tubo’s fate was over, I vowed to return home with no doubt in my mind.”]

[This is Zhang Yichao’s ambition since childhood. ]

【And this ambition took more than 40 years to achieve.】

……

　Fortunately, Zhang Yichao was a person from the Tang Dynasty. If he was born in the Song Dynasty,

　　Huh... probably even worse than Di Qing!
