In April in Chang'an, the city is bathed in the spring breeze, the people are happy and the wild fields are green.
Chang'an is a noun and an adjective. Yes, it is an adjective describing prosperity, wealth and strength.
As the largest capital city in the world with a population of one million, Chang'an City cannot be seen from the south of the city to the north, and from the west of the city cannot be seen from the east. The passers-by have different skins, pedestrians have different clothes, and the lanes have different voices. Pavilions, pavilions, mountains, rivers and ponds are arranged among them. Even the Great Qin Xiongcheng Tianlang City, which is far away in the north, is inferior to Chang'an City.
Every time the word "Chang'an" is mentioned in all countries in the world, the words on their faces are full of reverence and admiration.
Long live the Qianqiu period, and may there be everlasting joy!
Today in Chang'an City, among the six palaces of Han Dynasty: Jiaole, Jianzhang, Weiyang, Tongguang, Changqiu, and Ganquan, Weiyang Palace is the most lively. Even the concubines in the harem gathered together to talk about the family's shortcomings, but nothing like Weiyang Palace today. The front hall of the palace was noisy and cheerful.
The gilt-decorated front hall door shone brightly in the sunlight. In the front hall, Prince Liu Huai stood majestically motionless. The various heroes of the empire, princes, generals and other military officers sat in the west of the front hall and sat facing east to pay homage; the civil servants from the prime minister on down sat in the east and paid homage to the west.
At this moment, except for Prime Minister Lu Zheng and General Tao Kan who were still seated, all the civil and military courtiers on both sides of the hall had left their seats. They were quarreling with their mouths as swords. As they quarreled, the huge front hall , just like a vegetable market.
Liu Yan, who was on the throne, was graceful and elegant in his dragon robe and jade belt. He was watching everything happening in the field calmly and calmly. His face was expressionless and he did not react to anyone's speech. He was silent and as cold as ice.
Lu Zheng looked at Manchaowen
Wu continued to argue, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Ever since I took over the post of prime minister, the court of Nuo Da has been as divided as it is today for many years!
General Tao Kan, on the other hand, was sitting there motionless like an old Buddha.
It turned out that just an hour ago, Liu Huai, who had never heard anything about the political affairs of the court, handed over the first memorial in his life, called "Memorial to Goguryeo". Of course, this memorial gathered the entire East Palace. The power to help everyone is so wonderfully written.
In the memorial, Liu Huai made a profound analysis of the geographical location of Goguryeo and its dynamics in recent years. At the end of the article, he concluded that "if Goguryeo is not eliminated, the eastern border will be uneasy. One day, Qin in the north and Pyueyue in the south will join forces with Goguryeo to attack from three sides." , the big man is in danger.
As soon as this performance came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
Although the Guan Dan in the memorial is somewhat exaggerated, it is by no means alarmist.
Anyone in the DPRK who has served as a military counselor has a very clear understanding of Goguryeo's strategic position and role.
Goguryeo was a small country, its land area was not as large as one county of the Han Empire, and it posed no threat to the security of the empire.
However, the geographical location of Goguryeo is very terrible.
Its country is surrounded by the sea on three sides. If Goguryeo surrenders to Great Qin, Great Qin can use the waterway to garrison Goguryeo from the Southern Zhudao of Great Qin. Once he moves towards the end of the war, Great Qin can use the waterway to garrison Goguryeo and attack the two Liaos to the northeast. At the same time, The Qin army marched south from the Great Qinnan Zhudao, forming a two-sided attack on Bozhou.
From Goguryeo to the southeast, you can easily grab troops in any of the four counties of Huaxing, Fanggu, Linzi, and Huai'an in Quzhou.
Landing on a beach is simply impossible to guard against. Quzhou is also the center of the Han Empire. When the time comes, the Qin tigers and wolves will burn, kill, loot, block grain routes, or behead people with cavalry. The hinterland of the Central Plains will be in chaos before there is a war. Isn't this a disaster for the world and a disaster for the empire?
The officials in the court are not unaware of Goguryeo's sneaky actions in recent years, especially the military generals who are loyal to the emperor Liu Yan. They have long wanted to serve the country on the battlefield, but the policy of first pacifying the country and then fighting against the outside world has been decided by the emperor Liu Yan. Who dares to do so? What about offending Long Yan?
And today, Prince Liu Huai, one of the few people in the world who dares to disobey the Sacred Heart, is the first to speak!
No one knows why Liu Huai, who has always been dedicated to cultivating his moral character, suddenly made such a bold move.
However, this move greatly satisfied the wishes of the military generals in the DPRK and China.
, those ambitious ministers who were not willing to let go of such a God-given opportunity, all agreed.
But those old-fashioned and unprofitable ministers opposed it one after another.
So, the courtiers in the room were all quarreling, you pouting at me and I staring at you.
At first, this group of people were quite law-abiding, and each of them looked like a dog. They used some honorific titles such as "Master", "Zhonglang", and "Captain" in their speech. Later, they changed to calling them by their first names. As the quarrels continued, The situation worsened, and eventually even parents and relatives were brought out, which was really degrading to the gentlemen.
And here, the prince's party are definitely the best fighters among the cocks. From the initial arguments, they gradually turned into shrews and scolds. Ran Min, who was the first to propose the conquest of Goguryeo, even almost took action.
In the front hall, all the courtiers had been fussing about for nearly two hours. Even Liu Yan, Lu Zheng, and Tao Kan
The three theatergoers were all a little tired. Liu Yan simply winked at Tao Kan. The leader of the military generals who rarely appeared in public coughed hard and shouted, "Shut your mouths, everyone." , you say something, I say something, some say it, some don’t say it, noisy! Are you really treating the court as a vegetable market?"
Above the court hall, there was complete silence!
The power of a great general cannot be disobeyed!
As a famous general who existed at the same time as the military god Zu Ti and the current court captain Liu Zun, Tao Kan has his own merits.
Tao Kan was born into a poor family. He first served as a county official when he was young. Because of his ability, he gradually served as the governor of Jingxiang and Lianghuai regions. After the Qin-Han War broke out, Zu Ti, the governor of the Southern Conquest, led his army to conquer the five Qiang and Yue Kingdoms in the southwest. Emperor Shenwu As the emperor drove the Qin Dynasty to the north, the Han Dynasty was extremely empty. The kings gathered their troops and took advantage of the opportunity to rebel. The bandits took advantage of the opportunity to burn and kill, and the smoke and beacons were burning everywhere.
At that time, Tao Kan, who was still the prefect, resolutely gave up his writing and joined the army. He mobilized more than a thousand young men and, with his extraordinary courage and wisdom, quelled all the bandits in the Jingxiang area. Later, Tao Kan was entrusted with an important task by Emperor Shenwu. He led his troops to fight in the north and south of the Yangtze River, intimidating both sides of the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers, and fought with all his strength to destroy the female gangsters. Those grass bandits who were rebelling or trying to rebel did not dare to confront him when they heard his name. The enemies looked at the wind and descended one after another. With his own efforts, he ensured the stability of people's hearts in Jingxiang and Lianghuai. It can be said that the king is diligent and the royal family is at peace.
After the war, Tao Kan, who was both wise and brave in the Shenwu Emperor's team, greatly praised and rewarded him. However, Tao Kan, who knew the way of advance and retreat, only accepted the position of a frontier general after the war. All the rewards and titles were returned to the treasury, and He wrote to Emperor Shenwu and said: The country is in trouble now, and everything is in ruins waiting to be revitalized.
Money and material goods should benefit the people, and personal prosperity is not enough for the Tao.
Tao Kan's speech not only avoided the struggle for power at the end of the troubled times and the beginning of the prosperous times, but also earned himself a virtuous name. In order to avoid trouble in the court, Tao Kan even chose the most remote place to become a general and leave the capital. Before leaving, there was a fortune-teller who observed his fortune and told him that he would be able to discern the secrets of public affairs as far away as Wugong. At that time, Tao Kan just smiled and found a dark and windy night. Amidst the lights of thousands of houses, he left Chang'an City quietly.
In the next twenty years, the world was settled, and Tao Kan remained unknown in the position of a frontier general for nearly twenty years. Even some old people thought that he would remain in the position of a frontier general and die in obscurity. At that time, the new emperor Liu Yan ascended the throne. Within a few years, the world's noble families gathered in Chang'an and began to suffer from cholera in the capital. The Guju people in Western Xinjiang took the opportunity to cause chaos, and the Western Territory was in danger.
It was this incident that gave Tao Kan a second spring.
At that time, Liu Yan, who had just ascended the throne, had only a group of young men under his command. Among his close followers, no general could be found who could lead thousands of armies. In addition to the internal strife in the empire, the emperor was not sure about letting people from aristocratic families such as Jiang Cang lead the army.
At the moment when Liu Yan was in a dilemma, under the strong recommendation of Lu Zheng, Tao Kan, who was nearly 60 years old, went into battle again, commanding two frontier armies, one arm of the armed forces, and the entire Hu Weiwei army, and rolled up the banner of the Han family. He sent an army of one hundred thousand men to kill all the way to the west.
Tao Kan rarely used cunning tactics, but was thoughtful and thoughtful. He fought steadily and fought step by step in every battle. He led his army all the way to the west in triumph, and almost wiped out the Guju people and their species.
From then on, Tao Kan returned to the eyes of the world, and the world recognized him again.
After getting to know Tao Kan, those who had been a good friend of him checked his resume and couldn't help but be shocked. From the year 296 of the Han calendar, when Tao Kan started to defend the country, he continued to show off his power in the Western Regions in his sixtieth year. He went through thousands of battles, large and small, without losing a single one. This achievement far surpassed that of the military god Ancestor Ti, and was comparable to the current god of war.
So, before tea and after dinner, Tao Kan had a new name, Tao Qiansheng.
Tao Kan has a fierce temper. After winning the battle and being worshiped as a general, he became more vigorous and unambiguous in his actions. In his eyes, one is one, two is two, and he never rubs the sand.
Therefore, when people in the court were having tea and drinking in private, they all laughed and said: If you offend Lu Zheng, you will be stabbed with a knife later; if you offend Tao Kan, you will be stabbed on the spot.
At this time, Tao Kan yelled on behalf of Liu Yan, and the entire court and opposition, no matter whether they were relatives of the emperor or relatives, no matter whether they were from the Aizhou party or the princelings, all returned to their original positions, bowed their heads and kept silent.
After Tao Kan finished his roar, he stopped talking and lowered his head like an old monk in meditation.
At this time, the courtiers who knew something better began to see the rules of the matter. It turned out that from beginning to end, they were the "little soldiers and crab generals" who were constantly quarreling. The emperor Liu Yan, the prime minister Lu Zheng and the emperor who could really control the structure of the temple General Tao Kan has still not expressed his stance until now.
Those who could make it to the capital of the empire were at least monkey spirits. Wanting to understand this relationship, they began to arrange their clothes one by one, and then knelt down on their desks, waiting for the emperor to speak.
Liu Yanjiong narrowed his eyes and looked at the nearby stairs. The emperor's uncle Liu Qian who was sitting on the middle step was already empty. Now, except for himself on the top, only the ministers were left on the bottom.
, there is no one who can’t get up and get down.
From now on, I am the only one in the world, even if the gods come down to earth, they will give me seven points!
