These frustrated men valued reality over nominal names, and were representatives of five generations of political figures. In the economic aspect, it attached great importance to the development of agriculture and made efforts to reduce taxes, and it was very strict with the army, and when the general was killed in battle, all the soldiers under his command were beheaded, which was called the beheading of the troops.

However, Zhu Quanzhong was absurd in his later years, and even disregarded ethics, often calling the wives of his sons into the palace to accompany him. In terms of diplomacy, at the beginning of the founding of the Later Liang Dynasty, almost all countries and feudal towns expressed their submission, and only Jin, Qi, Former Shu and Wu were hostile to the Later Liang and still served the era name of the Tang Dynasty.

Among them, Li Keyong of the Jin State is the sworn enemy of Zhu Quanzhong, the Taizu of the Later Liang, since the founding of the country, Liang has made a northern expedition to the Jin State, and Li Keyong has a stalemate in Luzhou, which is known as the Battle of Luzhou in history. After Li Keyong died of grief, his son Li Cunqiao won the victory with the assistance of Li Kening and Zhang Chengye. Zhu Quanzhong suspected that the Chengde army was in close agreement with the Jin and led the army to attack, forcing the Chengde army Wang Rong and the Yiwu army Wang to fall straight to Li Cunqing, Li Cunqiao led the army to defeat the Houliang army in Baixiang, and successfully rescued the Chengde army, and the Liang army was greatly injured, which is known as the Battle of Baixiang in history.

Li Keyong, the king of Jin, was a famous general in the late Tang Dynasty, a member of the Shatuo tribe, who was nicknamed Li Ya'er in the early days, and later called the one-eyed dragon because of his blindness. The father name of Li Keyong, the king of Jin, was Li Guochang, and he followed his father to fight in his early years, often charging ahead, and everyone called him Feihuzi.

Leek was very brave when he was a teenager, and was good at archery, someone pointed to two eagles in the air and said, "Can you shoot down the two eagles with one arrow?"

Li Keyong, the king of Jin, was born in the north of what is now Xiyanmen, and his eldest son, Li Cunqiao, established the Later Tang Dynasty, and he was revered as the Later Tang Taizu. Li Keyong has many sons in his life, including eleven of his own children and nine righteous sons. Li Ke was brave and impatient by nature, and once suppressed the rebel army of Pang Xun and Huang Chao.

Li Keyong, the king of the Jin Dynasty, occupied Hedong, which can be said to be famous, and later the Huainan warlord Yang Xingmi wanted to see Li Keyong's appearance, so he found a very famous painter to steal Li Keyong's portrait. Unexpectedly, this news was known to the Hedong soldiers in advance, and Li Keyong, the king of Jin, was very angry. He said to the people around him, "I have one less eye now, and I want to see what he painted me."

As soon as the painter arrived, Li Keyong shouted angrily at him: "Yang Xingmi wants you to paint my appearance, you must be a master, if you don't paint well, then don't think about going back." ”

The painter began to paint very scared, it happened to be summer, and King Li Ke of Jin held a fan in his hand. The painter just let one corner of the fan cover the blind eye that Li Ke used, and Li Keyong was very angry after seeing it and asked him to repaint. So the painter painted another one, the painting of Li Ke using archery, one eye squinting as if aiming at the target, this time Li Ke was very happy, rewarded the painter and sent him back.

Li Keyong has a total of twelve righteous sons, and a biological son named Li Cunqiao, collectively known as the Thirteen Taibao. Among the thirteen Taibao, all of them are very talented, it can be said that they are dominant, Li Keyong led the thirteen sons, with outstanding military achievements and a great reputation. But as time passed, the sons gradually intrigued and became suspicious of each other.

Li Keyong has many sons, only Li Cunxiao does not remember personal gains and losses, Li Cunxiao is Li Keyong's righteous son, he is sincere, but good people only attract more rumors and frames. Li Keyong thought that as long as he was fair and selfless and treated everyone equally, they would be submissive to him, but he didn't expect that people's hearts were unpredictable, even if they were flesh and blood, once they were in front of interests, they would all have their own ghosts.

Li Keyong and Li Cunmiao were both famous generals in the late Tang Dynasty, Li Keyong was Li Cunmiao's father, and Li Cunmiao was the founder of the Later Tang Dynasty. Although the two of them are father and son who lived in the same era, there are many differences between the two. From the point of view of the time of birth, Li Keyong and Li Cunmiao are a full twenty-nine years apart, which means that Li Keyong gave birth to Li Cunmiao at the age of twenty-nine.

Li Keyong and Li Cunmiao still have some similarities between the two fathers and sons in some aspects, and both of them have relatively brave personalities. Li Cunmiao has been good at horseback riding and archery since he was a child, and he is very courageous, and he is the most like Li Keyong among his many sons. Li Keyong has always been very fond of Li Cunmiao, when he was a teenager, he took Li Cunmiao to go on the expedition, Li Cunmiao went to the imperial court with his father when he was eleven years old, and was not only praised by the emperor, but also rewarded.

Li Keyong and Li Cunmiao, father and son, can be said to be both civil and military, and the two were already famous when they were young. When Li Keyong was thirteen years old, he saw two eagles in the air, so he shot two of them with an arrow, and everyone present was stunned. And Li Cunmiao has also been good at archery since he was a child, and it can be said that he has obtained the true biography of Li Keyong.

When Li Cunqiao became an adult, he not only looked outstanding, but also open-minded and synonymous, and was brave and good at fighting. And Li Keyong was very brave when he was young, and he often charged ahead when he went out in the army, and people in the army called him Feihuzi. Li Keyong laid a solid foundation for the establishment of the Later Tang Dynasty during his lifetime, and Li Cunqiao was the founder of the Later Tang Dynasty after Li Keyong, and the two can be said to complement each other in terms of achievements.

Li Keyong has been very heroic since he was a child, and he was known as Li Ya'er when he was a teenager. When Li Keyong was fifteen years old, he followed his father to the army to fight against Pang Xun, he has been charging ahead, when the generals and soldiers in the army called him Feihuzi, after Pang Xun was pacified, he was named the general of the clouds.

Li Keyong has a total of twenty sons, eleven biological sons, and nine so-called righteous sons. Li Ke used so many sons, among which the most famous and accomplished was the eldest son Li Cunqiao. Li Cunmiao is one of Li Keyong's sons who has achieved great success, he is the son of Li Keyong and Empress Cao Zhenjian. Li Cunmiao has been good at riding horses and archery since he was a child, and he is the most favored son of Li Keyong. He fought with his father when he was a teenager, and when he was a teenager, he and Li Keyong reported to the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor at that time also praised Li Cunqiao.

When Li Cunqiao became an adult, he was not only handsome and strong, but also proficient in "Spring and Autumn". Li Cunmiao was brave and good at fighting, familiar with strategic directions, and his father Li Keyong was besieged by Zhu Quanzhong and was very distressed. Li Cunqiao persuaded his father, saying that Zhu Quanzhong wanted to seize the throne, but he was simply killing himself. He advised his father not to be discouraged, and Li Keyong was very happy to hear it at that time, and cheered up to fight against the enemy, so Li Cunqiao can be said to be a person who is both civil and military.

Li Cunxiao, his mother originally named him An Jingsi. It happened that Li Keyong, the king of Jin, was expanding his territory in the north, and met him by chance, seeing that he was brave and martial, his parents died not long ago, so he left him under the tent, accepted him as a righteous son, and named him Li Cunxiao. Li Cunxiao often follows the king of Jin, and with his martial arts, no one can stand out in the limelight.

Li Keyong often defeated his old opponent Zhu Wen of the Later Liang Dynasty, and several battles were won because of the tacit cooperation of Li Keyong and Li Cunxiao. Li Keyong and Li Cunxiao became more and more intimate, such a relationship caused the jealousy of Li Keyong's other righteous sons, Li Cunxin is Li Cunxiao's brother-in-law, he instigated Li Cunxiao to rebel, and then went to his father-in-law to complain, Li Cunxiao was fooled, and really planned to rebel, and finally in a battle with King Jin, surrounded by King Jin's team.

Li Cunxiao was captured alive in front of Li Keyong, weeping in pain, crying that Li Cunxin framed him, because there was no evidence, King Jin did not pursue Li Cunxin. Li Cunxiao's factual evidence is conclusive, although the King of Jin was furious in his heart, he actually didn't want to kill him, but in the end, he couldn't come to the stage because he didn't have the general's intercession, so he could only sentence his most valued son Che Split to death.

Li Keyong, who lost Li Cunxiao, gradually declined, while his opponent Zhu Wen became stronger and stronger. Li Ke used courage and no strategy, committed a taboo in soldiers, and almost lost his army. But his eldest son was indeed a good fighter, and with Li Keyong's foresight, the Jin army gradually gained a firm foothold on the battlefield in the north, capable of both attacking and defending.
