Ma Huiwen's words are also very reasonable, and he was suddenly ashamed and angry, the Great Song Dynasty is known as the country of the Heavenly Empire, to be precise, it is also self-righteous, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is also a sinister and cunning character, to be precise, it is suspicious, fortunately he is a Wenchen, otherwise it is not a good thing for himself.

Song Taizong Zhao Jiong was born in the fourth year of Tianfu in the Later Jin Dynasty (939 AD), formerly known as Zhao Guangyi, the son of Zhao Hongyin, a general of the Later Tang Dynasty, and the younger brother of Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty. The second emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, he succeeded his brother Zhi to complete the great cause of unifying the Central Plains, the Northern Expedition to the Khitan to block the invasion of the Liao State, organize the internal affairs, and contribute to the stable development of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Guangyi was called the emperor at the age of 38, he first completed his brother's unfinished unification of the great cause, when the south had been pacified, but Wu Yue and Min two secession regimes still retained the country name, Taizong forced the two lords to lower their country name, completely unified the southern places, and then Taizong threw the main forces to the north of the Northern Han and Liao, Taiping Xingguo four years (AD 979) Taizong personally led the army to attack the Northern Han, the Northern Han lord Liu Jiyuan surrendered, the Northern Han Dynasty to 979 years of destruction. The continuous division of five dynasties and ten kingdoms has finally come to an end.

Destroyed the Northern Han Song Taizong confidence doubled, he planned to recover the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures ceded to the Khitan by the Later Jin Dynasty, Taiping Xingguo four years (AD 979) June, the Song army destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty in the case of no correction directly crusaded against the Liao State, the Song army's attack was the stubborn resistance of the defender Yelu Xuegu, when the two sides could not hold each other, the Liao general Yelu Xianzhen and Yelu Xiuge led the reinforcements to arrive, Song Liao launched a major battle in the Gaoliang River, the Song army was caught by the Liao army before and after, Taizong was almost captured by Yelu Xiuge, and fled to Zhuozhou in a hurry.

Taiping Xingguo seven years (982 AD), Liao Jingzong Yelu Xian died, his 12-year-old son Yelu Longxu succeeded to the throne, that is, Liao Shengzong, the emperor was young, by the Huang Empress Dowager Xiao Xuan regent, Song Taizong thought that the orphans and widows were a good time to cut Liao, the last time the pro-expedition was defeated, so far there are palpitations, so decided to sit in the capital division, sent Yang Ye, Mi Xin, Pan Mei, Tian Chongjin, Cao Bin and other 300,000 troops to attack Liao in three ways. Song Taizong was stubborn and self-serving, he was in Beijing but firmly grasped the command in his own hands, soon the Song army appeared improper command, the military order was not timely and lacked cooperation, the Song army was killed, the Song army turned to attack and defended, the Liao State stabilized the internal affairs of the Song Dynasty for many years, Song Taizong hesitated, did not know the battle and the peace, lost the initiative, the Song army generals were also at a loss, the Song army was difficult to confront the Liao army, the combat effectiveness became weaker and weaker, and the two defeats Song Taizong was afraid of the Liao people like a tiger and lost his sharpness and turned to heavy literature and light force, This serious consequence could not be resolved, and could only bring hidden dangers to the Song Dynasty. As an emperor who doesn't trust his generals so much, he only thinks about holding power in his hands, and the final result can only be failure.

Zhao Guangyi attaches great importance to chaos, and is very jealous of the generals, even Cao Bin, the first good general of the Song Dynasty, is not at ease, and he is also deposed, because the suspicion between the monarch and the minister can only bring disaster to the country, so the army of the Song Dynasty can only become weaker.

In terms of treating the prince, he was even more worried about Song Taizu's two sons, Dezhao and Defang. In the first battle of the Song Liao Gaoliang River, Zhao Guangyi and the main force of the Song army were separated, and the soldiers thought that Taizong was killed, so they discussed supporting Taizu's son Dezhao as emperor. I didn't expect Taizong to be alive, this matter came to Taizong, violated Taizong's suspicion, and finally forced his nephew Dezhao to death, Defang also died inexplicably, Taizong's younger brother Zhao Guangmei was cautious, and changed his name to Zhao Yanmei in order to avoid suspicion, and he was also suspicious, and was forced to die of depression by Taizong. Taizong's meanness and unkindness are undoubtedly revealed.

In March of the third year of Taizong Zhidao (997 AD), he died of illness at the age of 59. He laid the foundation for the Song Dynasty to govern the country with culture, and his stubbornness and hesitation in foreign and military policies led to the formation of a situation of "poverty and weakness" in the Song Dynasty, which affected the end of the Southern Song Dynasty. Zhao Guangyi did nothing except capture the Northern Han Dynasty, although he pacified the southern secession regime, but the situation in the south was still unstable, and the rebellion of the generals was surrendered, and the uprisings of Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun all occurred during this period. In short, Zhao Guangyi is a mediocre person who is unkind and unkind, ambitious and talented.

Everyone may also know that the Song Dynasty also attached great importance to literature and military suppression, and it was precisely because of this that there was a big incident.

The Song Dynasty has been popular in history for more than 300 years, but the emperor was too influenced by the previous dynasty and has been studying how to prevent the generals from rebelling. In the end, a military general was deserted, and no one was available to fight, and the Song Dynasty also went into decline. Why is it so guarded against military generals? In fact, the biggest reason is that Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, did not ascend the throne by legitimate means. Zhao Kuangyin was originally a small person in the Zhou Dynasty, but later, relying on his martial arts, he launched a mutiny and became the emperor. It is precisely because he did not rely on legitimate means to ascend to the throne, and he was afraid that others would follow his example and take away his throne, so he formulated a policy of emphasizing literature over force.

Since ancient times, there have been civilian officials who want to transform into military attachés, but they can't be transformed, and they want to go to the battlefield to establish military merits, so the Northern Song Dynasty provided these people with a channel for civilian to military positions. They are also equivalent to military advisors, although they do not have martial arts, they can give advice and set up troops. In this way, civil officials can control military generals, and military generals can also suppress civil ministers, which can be described as a good way to kill two birds with one stone. This method of transformation is actually of great benefit to Wenchen, which can quickly help them become officials and knights, of course, provided that you have good talent and can give full play to your talents on the battlefield. For example, Fan Zhongyan, who we are most familiar with. Even if Wen can turn to Wuwu, he can naturally transfer to Wen, but the chance of success is very small, such as Di Qing.

As a commander-in-chief, to be honest, a civilian or civilian-born military general is indeed more suitable for commanding on the battlefield than a person who is only a military general. Most generals only know how to use their fists, but they can't be both wise and brave, and they can also give advice, and people like Di Qing are very rare. Therefore, the commander-in-chief is not only for military generals, and Wenchen may be more suitable than them.

We all know the fame of the Song-Xia War. All kinds of battles of wits and courage make future generations feel very cool, and it is not only a competition of force. Although there are many Wenchen who will abuse the number, and the emperor is still very suspicious of military attachés, there are not a few who have military talents, and it has to be said that it is a very correct choice to let Wenchen command the battle and open up the territory for the generals. Many of the scholars shone in the war and left their own legends in history.

This was the case in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty also continued the practice of the Northern Song Dynasty, and did the same, but the light military force of the Southern Song Dynasty was a bit excessive, and it was no wonder that capable people like Yue Fei and Han Shizhong were guarded against, so it is no wonder that they embarked on the road of destruction early. In general, the emperors of the Song Dynasty were not at ease with the generals, and they were all kinds of suspicions. The Song Dynasty can be said to be hell for military generals, but it is also equally terrible for Wenchen, in fact, it is impossible to say that he does not hate the Great Song Emperor, and for the Great Song Emperor Zhao Guangyi, Wenchen is smart, if he does not have military power, it is impossible to turn the sky upside down. If the same generals do not have the help of literati, they are also very afraid, Liao State implements a state system of both civil and military use, coexistence with each other, which is why Liao State is so strong, the same reason if they are in Liao State may be able to use it, but unfortunately things in the world are not so simple, and the good show is still to come?
