At first glance, the meanings are similar, but the second half of An Chongrong's self-questioning and answering sentences directly changes the pattern from the vast universe to a narrow fruit core, from the thirty-third heaven to the deep ditch of the ruins.
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang shouted out the "Internationale" with great momentum, showing that men have nothing to do with their appearance, but men should strive for self-improvement. This cry aroused the awakening of the people at the bottom and called on the oppressed and exploited slaves to stand up and use force to fight for their legitimate rights and interests. It has epoch-making progressive significance.
An Chongrong's words screamed out the bandit temperament of "stealing money, food, and women" and were full of bandit logic.
Even if this was the case, he dared to shout it out publicly and mentioned it to people around him more than once, without the slightest worry that it would reach Shi Jingtang's ears.
Therefore, Shi Jingtang easily discovered An Chongrong's evil intentions, and then when dividing Wei Bo, he weakened An Chongrong's strength, delimited a state from the Chengde Army under his rule, and then divided his Huangfu, a neighbor of his in-laws, was transferred away.
Right in front of An Chongrong's office building, there is a flagpole dozens of feet high, with a dragon head decoration on the top. One day, An Chongrong held his bow and arrow and said to the people around him: "If I can be the emperor, let me shoot the dragon's head with one arrow." After that, he shot the arrow and hit the dragon's head.
Reminiscent of the story of Shi Jingtang becoming emperor and himself being the governor, An Chongrong became more and more convinced that he could also be emperor. So he became even more domineering.
When he first went to Zhenzhou, it was Mi Qiong who launched a mutiny in Zhenzhou and massacred Dong Wenqi's family, the former Jiedushi envoy. After claiming to stay, Shi Jingtang appointed An Chongrong as Zhenzhou Jiedu envoy and Mi Qiong as Qizhou defense envoy. make.
Before leaving, Shi Jingtang gave many instructions and said to An Chongrong: "If Mi Qiong refuses to accept the imperial edict, you must not take it by force. I will arrange another military town for you."
This kind of compromise, weakness and appeasement is the strategy of governing the country that Shi Jingtang had to adopt due to internal and external pressure. It is the correct attitude and posture of a weak leader.
However, An Chongrong understood it as Shi Jingtang's natural cowardice and timidity, and sneered at it. He proudly said to the people around him: "Mi Qiong is just an insignificant little character. Shi Jingtang is afraid of being like that. It's really You are as timid as a mouse! Look at me, I am a general and a prime minister, and I have a lot of troops in my hands. I scare Shi Jingtang to death!"
To conspire, you need to recruit troops, gather grass and gather grain, build walls and dig trenches, and a series of basic operations. He Zong Lian Heng is already an advanced version. The weak An Chongrong found a unique way and found a magic weapon that could defeat Shi Jingtang. ——Nationalism, patriotism.
Shi Jingtang served the Khitan wholeheartedly. In response, An Chongrong accused him of being a traitor. He held high the banner of nationalism, portrayed himself as a staunch and patriotic general, and tried his best to incite ethnic opposition.
To this day, in a certain character entry, the evaluation of An Chongrong is still: "Among the civil servants and generals of the later Jin Dynasty, only An Chongrong relied on his loyalty and clearly opposed Shi Jingtang's servile surrender policy, and denounced his traitorous behavior of drinking poison to quench his thirst. His patriotism and national integrity in resisting foreign aggression are worthy of praise from future generations."
Sigh... the saying "The benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom" has become a fig leaf for many people who lead the way.
An Chongrong has sinister intentions and has never truly established his ideals and beliefs. His political ambitions are extremely inflated, his political quality is extremely bad, and his views on power and political performance are extremely distorted. He deviates from major political principles, creates and spreads political rumors, violates the rule of law, and deceives superiors and subordinates. Gaining political capital; using any means to achieve personal political goals and manipulating power; being arrogant and acting recklessly...
An Chongrong used foreign relations as an excuse, accused Shi Jingtang of treason, criticized the later Jin government for losing power and humiliating the country, etc., and did not investigate whether it was appropriate. Even if the later Jin regime was a traitor group, An Chongrong's true colors could not be changed. "Shi Jingtang is a bad guy" and "An Chongrong is a bad guy" are two different things. Judging Shi Jingtang as a bad guy does not affect the judgment of An Chongrong as a bad guy.
Those who hold high nationalism and patriotism are not necessarily good people. If the thief calls for "catch the thief," you are still a thief.
Whenever Khitan envoys used Zhenzhou to go to Bianzhou and Luoyang, An Chongrong would humiliate them in every possible way, and even kill the envoys, deliberately causing diplomatic accidents for Shi Jingtang, which made Shi Jingtang tired of dealing with it, so he paid a large amount of financial compensation and returned the envoys. You should bow down and apologize to others.
Zhenzhou is located at the junction of the two countries. In addition to being an important road for north-south transportation, Zhenzhou also has a special ethnic situation. Han and Han people live together. The Tang Dynasty implemented a policy of restraint and softness, which caused various ethnic minorities to live dispersedly here, and wars and famines intensified. In addition to its mobility, the ethnic composition of this region is extremely complex, and the relationships between them are also intricate. Clearly, this became an ideal breeding ground for separatists.
One of the Tuyuhun tribes happened to be within the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun during the "Hedong War". Following Shi Jingtang's land cession clause, they were reduced to second-class citizens of the Khitan people. Khitan has always discriminated against the people in conquered areas, often brutally exploiting and oppressing them.
An Chongrong sent someone to secretly contact the leaders of the Tuyuhun tribe, luring them south and returning to the Later Jin Dynasty. As a result, more than a thousand tents of this Tuyuhun tribe went south and entered the territory of the Later Jin Dynasty from the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun.
The Khitan was furious and sent envoys to accuse Shi Jingtang of violating the treaty and inviting surrender and rebellion.
Shi Jingtang is a mute who eats Coptis chinensis and cannot express his sufferings; Zhu Bajie looks in the mirror and is not human inside and out. He offered generous gifts and apology, and sent troops to search and arrest these illegal immigrants in the mountains and deep valleys of Taiyuan, Zhenzhou, Xinzhou, Daizhou, etc., and then handed them over to the Khitan.
At this time, An Chongrong took advantage of the topic and publicized: Look, this traitorous traitor and pseudo-emperor!
Subsequently, An Chongrong increased the dosage: he detained the Khitan envoys and sent troops to plunder the southern area of Youzhou. Huan Shangshu claimed that the leaders of Tuyuhun, Tujue, Qibi, Shatuo and other tribes had accused the Khitans of oppressing them and expressed their desire to return to the Central Plains. Moreover, the Khitans had begun military mobilization. It was said that they were preparing to go south to invade the Central Plains, and we Then he was ready to be a national hero and would rather die with the barbarian invaders.
At that time, a mutiny broke out in Shuozhou within the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun. Zhao Chong, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, expelled Yelu Huali, the envoy of Jiedu, and the Khitan quickly sent troops to besiege.
An Chongrong used the topic to hype up the story, saying that Zhao Chong was a righteous man who wanted to return to the Central Plains. He hoped that the later Jin Dynasty could send troops to comply with God's will and the people's will, fight against the Khitan, take back the Sixteen States of Youyun, and bring back the senior generals who were trapped in the barbarians. Save it.
This article contains thousands of eloquent words, and he also writes letters to various ministers in the DPRK and the local vassal towns. The main idea is to force Shi Jingtang to fall out with the Khitan and provoke a war with the Khitan.
