Why didn't Zhao Guangyi of the Song Dynasty convene the military generals of the Song Dynasty this time, it was because of this important diplomatic matter, first of all, we had to consider Wenchen, why if a military general was allowed to go instead of him, it was likely to cause turmoil, after all, the Song Dynasty system emphasized literature and light military force, which can also explain the sorrow of the Great Song Dynasty, these things also started from the time of his brother Zhao Kuangyin, after all, he himself was born as a military general. Knowing that most of the generals have rebelled since the five dynasties, so the precautions against the generals are not strong, which can also show that the emperor of the Song Dynasty is more suspicious of the generals than the Wenchen. This is why there is the previous sentence that a military general is still much more dangerous than Wenchen.

In the three hundred years of the Great Song Dynasty, it was difficult for Hu Lu to overcome. It is difficult to stretch the ambition of the star, how can the civil officials guard the family?

At the end of the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that the only people who can be called the famous generals of the previous generation are Di Qing of the Northern Song Dynasty and Yue Fei of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Yue Fei, who was born at the moment when the country was ruined and the family was ruined, the invasion of foreign enemies, and the life and death of the nation, was even more famous, and there were more opportunities to display his talents.

Majestic bullfighting,

Vows to take revenge on the king.

Kill the stubbornness and return to the car,

Don't ask the Marquis of the Ten Thousand Households.

What a majestic oath, going north to the Central Plains, leading the army to smash the Huanglong Mansion, recovering the lost territory, winning back the two saints, washing away the shame and shame of Jingkang, how heroic and sassy it is to return to the day when he wins the day, it will be a great feat that will be remembered in history and passed down through the ages. However, all this is just imagination, if Yue Fei was not born in this dynasty that emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, if Gaozong did not obtain the throne in this way, if Yue Fei's political mind was more superb, then everything is possible, only sigh that all possible factors are not available, a generation of talents will have to end up miserable, and the time will also die!

There is no dynasty in Chinese history like the Song Dynasty, which guarded the internal and external aspects, strengthened the cadres and weak branches, and emphasized literature and suppressed the military. The Song Dynasty was a strange figure in Chinese history, with a highly developed economy, a GDP that could reach 80 percent of the world at that time, a high degree of social development, a high degree of cultural prosperity, and a high degree of political democratization. In our subjective impression, when the country's economic strength is strong, its military war capability will inevitably be strong, and this is not the case with the Han and Tang dynasties.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the emperor advocated ruling the world with scholars, so that the political atmosphere of the government and the opposition was quite enlightened. Song Taizu once boasted that he did not kill people with his speech, thus forming the basic principle of the "scholarly democratic system" and establishing a civil official system of "respecting literature and suppressing martial arts". The establishment of the civil official system in the Song Dynasty made the traditional aristocratic politics and martial arts politics basically withdraw from the historical stage of feudal China." From the Northern Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, the status of military generals can be said to be getting lower and lower, in the Northern Song Dynasty, as a privy envoy, the general Cao Bin walked on the street, saw the civil official's carriage arrived, no matter what grade the other party would choose to avoid. According to the rules, this should never be, and the low-grade give way to the high-grade to make way since ancient times, but the civil officials in the Song Dynasty counterattacked.

Di Qing, a famous general in the middle of the Song Dynasty, can be said to have been shot while lying down. Di Qing first conquered the northwest, and then put down the rebellion in the south and made great achievements. Because of his military exploits, he was promoted to the rank of deputy privy councilor, why is he deputy? Because the main position is for civilian officials, the military generals can do at most to the deputy position. One night, a servant of Di Qing's family burned paper in the courtyard to commemorate his ancestors, and the fire may have been a little big, and he was accused of saying that Di Qing's house was glowing with gold. These frightened the civil officials, because according to historical records, Yang Jian's house was also golden before he became emperor. Di Qing, who didn't know anything, wore beige clothes to Xiangguo Temple the next day to offer incense, and then was said to be bright yellow, and then the civil officials were able to confirm that Di Qing was indeed going to rebel. Because Song Renzong was seriously ill and in a coma at this time, the civil officials dismissed Di Qing to Chenzhou out of the principle of "rather remiss mistakes than let go". The innocent Di Qing went to Wen Yanbo, the boss of the prime ministers, to reason with him and ask for the reason, but Wen Yanbo only said, "There is nothing else, that is, we suspect you, how about it?" Di Qing was so angry that he trembled all over, but there was nothing he could do.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, because the Southern Song Dynasty had just been established, it had to rely on those military generals, so the status of military generals improved a little in the early Southern Song Dynasty. However, after Song Gaozong sat firmly in the country, he began to slash the power of military generals, such as Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and others. The Jin State in the north would not let go of such an opportunity, and the Jin Emperor Wan Yan Liang commanded an army of 600,000 to go south to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty in one go. The Jin army soon approached the Yangtze River, and the Song Dynasty's defenders on the south bank of the Yangtze River were only a few thousand men, and they could not stop the Jin offensive at all. At this time, Yu Yunwen, a Zhongshu scholar who came to comfort the army, happened to arrive at the front line, and he saw that the defense line of the Song army was about to collapse, so he immediately grabbed the general in charge of commanding the Song army and told him, "The battle is won, you are my godson!" Yes, it's the son. It stands to reason that this should be the biggest insult to people, and Yu Yunwen's official position is lower than him, but the military general was not angry but was very happy, and began to counterattack the Jin army. Because although Yu Yunwen's official position is not high, he is an official next to the emperor, and he can say a few more good words in front of His Majesty the emperor for himself. It is precisely because Yu Yunwen is a person close to the emperor that he may develop at any time and even become the prime minister. Being the godson of the Prime Minister is something that cannot be desired, because this military general will work so hard. At this time, the status of the generals has fallen to this point, and the generals are still complacent, which is the biggest misfortune for a dynasty.

Fighting a war can be ordered by the military generals at will, a person who does not know how to fight, and does not even want to go to the front line to be the boss, if he wins, he will lose, and if he loses, can the military general not be a tragedy? And under this system of emphasizing literature over military force, the military generals want to kneel when they see the ministers, hey, who is it to protect the family and defend the country, can the enemy be scared away if the writing is good? What's even more tragic is that the more famous generals of the Song Dynasty did not get a good death, Di Qing was xenophobic and died of grief and anger, Yue Fei's unwarranted was framed, if it was Wenchen who could be exonerated from the crime, the military generals could not make mistakes, and a mistake was enough to be fatal.

The Song Dynasty was an era of great luck for the literati and unfortunate for the warriors. Yue Fei is a military wizard, assuming that he lived in any dynasty other than the Song Dynasty, his exploits and achievements will surely become a person through the ages, and he is incomparable to Wei Qing, Huo Quzhi, Li Jing, Xue Rengui and other famous generals. It's a pity that history can't be assumed, the Si people have passed away, leaving only a song that has been recited through the ages - "Man Jianghong". The Song Dynasty is also because of institutional problems, otherwise Yelu Longxu would not have taken advantage of this situation one after another to take a large part of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and now the Song Dynasty still has places such as Chang'an and Luoyang in Hebei, what will happen to the next situation in the Song Dynasty? I'm afraid that only they clearly understand how to arrange people, and a dispatch operation will gradually start, and the good show is still to come!
