Chapter 0032: Which is Right and Which Is Wrong
At this time, Liu Hong didn't know anything about what happened in Shaofu.
After waking up around noon, Liu Hong put on a leather armor with the assistance of Qin Mu, wore a bronze helmet on his head, tied the white snake sword around his waist, and went out of the palace with the imperial chariot carried by Qin Mu.
When traveling in military uniform, you have to go to the barracks; But it's not the Northern Army camp outside the Hengmen, but...
The camp of the Southern Army outside Anmen!
If Liu Hong remembers correctly, among the northern and southern armies of Chang'an, it was the southern army that was originally in charge of the palace guards.
This is also the origin of the name of the southern and northern armies: with a line to divide Chang'an City into two halves of the north and south, it can be found that the south of the city is almost all occupied by the two palaces of Changle and Weiyang, as well as the Jiuqing Yamen and Gaomiao between the two palaces.
It is precisely because the two palaces are located in the south of the city that the army responsible for the palace guards is called the southern army by the people of Chang'an; The army responsible for the twelve gates of Chang'an and the maintenance of law and order in the north of the city is called the Northern Army.
Over time, the term "Northern and Southern Armies" was handed down and became the official names of the two armies.
From this point of view, the southern army should be more elite than the northern army and more worthy of the trust of the old Liu family - otherwise Liu Bang would not have ordered the southern army to guard the palace, but let the northern army act as the city gatekeeper.
But this unit, which Liu Bang trusted most during his lifetime, suffered a huge blow in the rebellion of the previous time, and gradually disappeared in the subsequent history.
The reason for this is because the Southern Army stood on the wrong side in the Zhulu Rebellion.
In other words, from the perspective of the group of princes and ministers headed by Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others, the southern army was on the wrong side.
Before Empress Lü died, he handed over the southern army to Lü Chan, and the northern army to Lü Lu, intending to ensure that after his death, Lü could still control the situation
The ideal is very happy, but the reality is quite tragic.
Zhou Bo put Qu Zhou Hou Li Shang under house arrest, forced Li Shang's son and Lu Lu's best friend Li Ji, and deceived Lu Lu into obtaining the Northern Army Soldier Talisman (1) in Lu Lu's hand for him, and then entered the Northern Army camp and rebelled against the Northern Army by relying on his 'personal charm'!
Then, he drove the northern army to fight with the southern army in the hands of Lü Chan, and finally completely swept away the Lü power.
In this way, the southern army that helped Lu Chan fight against Zhou Bo naturally faced the fate of being retaliated, smeared and even liquidated - just like Liu Hong's original owner, if Liu Hong hadn't crossed over, poor Liu Ying would have been smeared by Zhou Bo as infertile!
However, in Liu Hong's view, the question of who is right and who is wrong between the northern and southern armies is like the question of 'the chicken or the egg in the world', which is not clear at all.
Out of loyalty to the Liu family, the northern army attacked the Lu family on the left, is this wrong?
As a palace guard, when the Southern Army found out that someone was intending to attack the palace, they desperately guarded the palace, what was the crime?
In Liu Hong's view, the Southern Army is even more worthy of respect than the Northern Army - as a later generation, Liu Hong subconsciously recognizes the army with strong discipline and obedience to orders.
Like the Northern Army, an army that was yelled at by others and roared to attack the palace, Liu Hong actually despised it quite in his heart.
In the original history, the reason why the Northern Army was politically correct was because Liu Heng ascended the throne - if there was no Northern Army, Zhou Bo would not be able to enter the palace, let alone force Emperor Hou Shao to be killed under the pretext of 'not Emperor Hui', and Emperor Wen would not be able to talk about his accession to the throne.
Therefore, it is not so much that the Northern Army in history is the arm of the Liu family, but that it is the minister of Emperor Wen Liu Heng.
- The ass decides the head, and that's exactly what it is.
For the same reason, after the emperor changed from Liu Heng to Liu Hong in history, the nature of the northern army's first 'Liu's left favor' changed: what was the intention of helping the courtiers attack the palace?
In the original history, the Southern Army, which was classified as the Lu Party because of its 'stubbornness', became a loyal minister who swore to guard the palace to the death, threw his head for Liu Hong, and spilled his blood!
It is true that at a time when Chen Ping and Zhou Bo are both classified as the 'pillars of the country', the righteousness of the Northern Army is 'beyond doubt', but Liu Hong cannot sit idly by and watch the Southern Army being classified as the Lu Party.
- Again, the Northern Army is such an 'assertive' army, Liu Hong doesn't want it!
Although Liu Hong led the Northern Army to stage the second 'Liu's Left Favor', to a certain extent, it proved that this army was really bewitched by Zhou Bo, but just from the fact that Zhou Bo had the ability to plot against the Northern Army in history, it can be seen that Zhou Bo has a very high prestige in the hearts of the soldiers of the Northern Army!
Because at that time, Zhou Bo only had a military talisman in his hand, but there was no emperor's edict!
Emperor Gaozu system: All troop movements of more than 50 people must be confirmed by the Tiger Talisman and the Emperor's edict, otherwise it will be punished as a conspiracy!
Zhou Bo successfully rebelled against the Northern Army with only one piece of military talisman, which means that the Northern Army still followed Zhou Bo to attack Weiyang Palace on the premise of knowing that this matter was treacherous!
At least the high-ranking officers who were responsible for checking the talismans and edicts knew that they were plotting rebellion!
In other words, as long as Zhou Bo is willing, he can use the 'Liu family' as a tiger skin for the second time, the third time, and even the countless times to incite the Northern Army to rebel!
In later generations, a great man once said: Loyalty is not absolute, it is absolutely disloyal!
Liu Hong thought so.
The Southern Army was different, according to historical records, the Southern Army did only one thing in the whole incident - to guard the imperial palace.
If you remove the part of Taishi Gong as the Venerable and the second creation, the situation will be obvious: the Southern Army is very likely to have been on the side of the Later Young Emperor from beginning to end!
As for the statement that the southern army was ordered to guard the palace because Lü Chan was in the palace, it is undoubtedly full of loopholes: according to what Zhou Bo and Chen Ping said when they were in tandem with the princes and ministers, Lü Chan was about to rebel, so why did he order the southern army to guard the palace?
Wouldn't it be better to just let the Southern Army fence off their mansions, or run away with the Southern Army?
Thinking about it this way, there is undoubtedly another possibility: although Lu Chan has the right to mobilize the southern army, he can't let the southern army leave the young emperor behind him and follow him!
Therefore, knowing that it was impossible for the southern army to leave the wall of Weiyang Palace, Lu Chancai ran into the palace and tried to protect himself under the protection of the southern army by the light of the Later Young Emperor.
And this is also the reason why Liu Hong went to the camp of the Southern Army today: to cheer for his true loyal ministers and correct his name!
As for why Liu Hong went to the camp of the Northern Army instead of going directly to the Southern Army when he escaped from the palace...
The scene that Liu Hong saw in his vision was the reason why Liu Hong chose the Northern Army at that time.
- The Southern Army Camp is already a huge prisoner camp at the moment...

PS: 1. According to historical records,
That's easy to understand, right?
The political correctness of the Northern Army in history is because of its merits in Liu Heng's ascension to the throne; Now that history has changed, in the eyes of Emperor Hou Shao, the Northern Army is naturally wrong, or not worthy of complete trust.
I'm sorry.,Yesterday because of my lack of a change.,Just,It's a very strange feeling.:The more I write, the more annoyed I become.,I feel that the bullshit I wrote isn't.,It's completely incomparable with the front.,I'm afraid of disappointing everyone.,And then the more irritable the worse the writing.,The worse the writing is, the more irritable it is...
The night before yesterday, the problem began.,The manuscript was changed to 4 o'clock in the morning.,I somehow entered that anxious state.,And then I deleted and rewrote.,The bullshit written is not.,Go to gnaw on Emperor Wen's book.,Come back and see.,How can the previous chapters be written so disgusting...
Fortunately, the editor in charge Qingzhou helped me a lot, so I realized that this is not a problem with the article, but a problem with my mentality: about 17 chapters have been wasted, and anxiety has affected my mentality.
Yesterday, I adjusted a day, and it took me 14 hours to write 31 chapters, and I couldn't hold it anymore, so I went outside and pulled out a fire cup, which was better.
Yesterday's missing chapter is made up today, and today there are three more.
I'm really sorry, but I hope you will be tolerant and understanding.
