Li De'an's head was taken by Di Qing to be made of lime nitrate, packed in a wooden box, and brought back to Tokyo when he was ready for the Western Army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As for the corpses of the dead soldiers of the Jiaozhi Army, they were ordered by Di Qing to be built into a "Jingguan".

The so-called Jingguan refers to the high mound made by gathering enemy corpses and sealing soil in order to show off martial arts. The fortress can not only show off your own military exploits, but also deter the enemy.

The earliest record of Jingguan was found in the Spring and Autumn Period in the "Zuo Chuan? The Twelfth Year of Xuan Gong "The Battle of Chu, Jin and Yi". It is recorded in the "Zuo Biography" that the Jin army was defeated in this battle, and the general of the Chu army, Pan Dang, asked to collect the Jin corpse and build it as the 'Jingguan' to show his martial arts in the eternal world.

In the Warring States period, in the famous Battle of Changping between Qin and Zhao, Bai Qi ordered the slaughter of 400,000 Zhao troops who laid down their arms, and then piled up their bones and built them as a high platform to boast of their martial arts. ——阬 and pit have the same sound, so it is often written as pit killing in later generations, but it does not mean to be buried alive, in fact, it is also made into a Jingguan. Because of the construction of the fortress of Jingguan, some generals will choose to use the enemy's first base to build, as for the corpses of the enemy, they are often buried in the big pit under the Jingguan. So this killing should also mean so.

Old Tang Book? The Biography of Dongyi Lie also has a record of Jingguan: "In the second year of Zhenguan, he broke the Turkic Jieli Khan, sent an envoy to congratulate him, and sealed the map. In the fifth year, the emperor's edict was issued to the commander of the Sima of Guangzhou, and the grandson of the Sui warrior was killed, destroying the Jingguan established by Goryeo. ”

Of course, in addition to showing off the military exploits and deterring the enemy, Jingguan also has a very important role, which is to use this Jingguan as a place to hide corpses, bury and clean up those corpses, in order to prevent the plague. The ancients killed the enemy, fought the corpse, and built a Beijing view, thinking that it was a place to hide the corpse.

After a big battle, tens of thousands of corpses are left on the battlefield, and if they are not treated, they can easily cause plague. Therefore, in ancient times, the conquest often used the method of building a fortress to dispose of the corpse. This can not only show off the combat exploits, deter the enemy, but also dispose of the corpses on the battlefield, which is a better method.

Originally, Di Qing didn't want to build the Beijing Temple at first, but after thinking about it, he decided to build the Beijing Temple.

In the Great Song Dynasty, it was not the same as the previous historical dynasties.

In the dynasties before the Great Song Dynasty, the status of military generals was very high, and there was no dynasty like the Great Song Dynasty, where the literati completely controlled the government. It can be said that the martial arts of all dynasties before the Great Song Dynasty were much more prosperous than those of the Great Song Dynasty.

If it was a dynasty before the Great Song Dynasty, after the great victory, the enemy corpse was used to build the Beijing Temple, and it is estimated that there would be no problems. It will only make the prestige of this general more prominent, and there will not be too many negative voices.

However, if you build a Jingguan in the Great Song Dynasty, you may need to think about it more. Those great Song scholars who advertise "benevolence and filial piety to govern the country" always like to "convince people with virtue" and like to "forgiveness"! Even if someone else calls, they always like to reason with someone first. For such a thing as the construction of Jingguan, those civil officials will definitely be indispensable to nag. If the Jingguan was built, Di Qing estimated that in the mouths of those civil officials and doctors, the act of building the Jingguan would definitely be said to be a cruel and brutal act.

Those civil officials don't care whether you built this Jingguan to show off your military exploits, whether it is to deter the enemy, or whether it is to dispose of corpses, anyway, your move to build this Jingguan seems too brutal, and it does not match our civil official's concept of "benevolence and filial piety to rule the world", we will spray you!

Because of this, Di Qing felt that if he built this Jingguan, he was afraid that he would inevitably be sprayed as a brutal person by the civil officials.

Di Qing knew that this time he was appointed as the Xuanfu envoy with full responsibility for the two lakes and two Guangzhous, and he was in charge of the counterinsurgency alone, without the restraint of civilian officials, which had already made those civil officials very dissatisfied with him.

And this time to the south, the Western Army successively won two great victories against Nong Zhigao's army and the Jiaozhi army, and his Di Qing's merits are even more extraordinary, I am afraid that those civilian officials will be more suspicious and protective of him.

If he builds Jingguan again, I am afraid that it will give those civil officials a reason to attack him.

However, Di Qing immediately thought that this Jingguan was still very effective in deterring the surrounding young people. In addition, the dampness and heat of this Lingnan land are abnormal, and if the corpses on these battlefields are not handled well, it can easily cause a plague. In a hot and humid place like Lingnan, there is a much greater chance of a plague outbreak than in a bitter cold place like the northwest.

Di Qing felt that even if he didn't build this Jingguan anyway, those civil officials would have to make trouble for themselves. Rather than letting them find fault with themselves, it is better to deliberately sell them a flaw and let them concentrate their firepower on the act of building Jingguan by themselves.

Di Qing felt that the construction of the Jingguan Temple had been a means to announce great military exploits and deter the enemy since ancient times. If those civil officials concentrate their fire on themselves, they may provoke the disgust of the officials.

In fact, Di Qing can feel that there is also the kind of desire in the hearts of today's officials, like Han Wu and Tang Zong, who hope to expand their territory and build great martial arts.

And the civil official wants him to become the kind of official who only requires peace in the world and civil governance, and does not need great martial arts, this concept is very contradictory to the psychology of the official.

Di Qing felt that what he did was precisely to declare the martial arts of the Great Song Dynasty for the official family, and in the annals of history in the future, he would definitely leave a mark: during the reign of Huangyou, Di Qing broke the thief army of 50,000 under Kunlun Pass, and broke the army of Jiaozhi State in front of Daguling 50,000, killed countless enemies, and built Jingguan to declare martial arts and deter the masses. Di Qing felt that today's officials would also think like this, after all, it was completed under his rule, and this was also an honor in martial arts during his reign, and I am afraid that it will be recorded in his own history in the future.

Another is that this construction of the Jingguan from the corpses of enemy soldiers of foreign countries has been the right of those famous generals since ancient times. Since ancient times, the things that the people have talked about have also been things that have given their country a big face. Di Qing felt that if he let people build a Jingguan, he was afraid that soon there would be many legends, commentaries and scripts about this matter among the people.

The common people will not be like those civil officials, and they will certainly hope that their country will be "merciful" towards the enemy. In many cases, they are the direct victims of the destruction caused by the enemy to their own country. The more ruthless those civil officials spray themselves, the more sympathetic they are among the people.

Di Qing felt that anyway, as a military general, once his military achievements were prominent, he would definitely become the object of suspicion and prevention by civilian officials, and become a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh. Since he can't be a member of the road with them no matter what, it is better to win the support of the officials and the people for him.

At that moment, Di Qing ordered the corpses of the Jiaozhi people to be collected, and built a Jingguan on the side of the avenue not far to the east of Taguling. This road is the only way from Yongzhou to Lang Son Zhennan Pass to Jiaozhi country. If the Jingguan is built, the people who go to Yongzhou Jiaozhi in the future will definitely be able to see this Jingguan often, which will definitely make them psychologically shocked, and they will no longer dare to provoke the Great Song Dynasty easily.

Since the corpses of these tens of thousands of Jiaozhi soldiers have built Jingguan, the corpses of the tens of thousands of soldiers who were killed by Nong Zhigao's army naturally need to be disposed of, otherwise in this hot and humid place in Lingnan, it is very easy to cause plague, Di Qing feels that since this is the case, it will also be built into Jingguan. Anyway, one is built, and two are built. At that moment, Di Qing ordered that in front of Kunlun Pass, use the corpses of Nong Zhigao who died in battle to build a Jingguan.

The construction of Jingguan here in Taguling is to deter those countries in the southern neighbors of the Great Song Dynasty, in addition to Jiaozhi abroad, but also to let the people of Zhenla, Dali and other countries know the methods of the Great Song Dynasty, and the determination to resolutely fight against the invasion of foreign enemies, so that they can think about it before their strange thoughts.

As for the Jingguan built in front of Kunlun Pass, it was naturally to deter the leaders and clansmen of ethnic minorities like Nong Zhigao in the country, let them know the heavy price of rebellion, and let these Yi people, barbarians and bureaucrats in the southwest know that they should not easily fight the idea of the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty will teach them how to behave in minutes. Once the Great Song Dynasty is provoked, the consequences must be very serious.

Since it has been decided to build this fortress to build the Jingguan, it must be done quickly, otherwise these numerous corpses of the army will easily cause plague and other troubles. The corpses of the Jiaozhi army just died today, and they are still a little short, especially the corpses of Nong Zhigaojun, which have been dead for several days, and they are already very dangerous in a damp, hot and barbaric place like Lingnan.

Of course, even if it is more dangerous, it will not be of much interest to the Western Army for the time being. Because there are a large number of captives, they don't need to do anything at all, they just need to supervise the work next to them.

In order to prevent the resistance of those captives from being too strong, Di Qing specially ordered those prisoners of the Jiaozhi army to go to Kunlun Pass to build the Jingguan of the Nongzhi Gao army, and let the prisoners of the Nong Zhigao army come to Daguling to build the Jingguan of the Jiaozhi army. After all, if he used the corpses of his comrades to build the Jingguan with his own hands, the spiritual impact on those captives would be too great, and Di Qing was afraid that if their resistance was too strong, it would cause unnecessary trouble. Therefore, the two groups of captives were specially exchanged to build a view of Beijing.

…………

Li De'an, the commander of the Jiaozhi Army who vainly attempted to invade the Great Song Dynasty, has been awarded the head, but the rebel chieftain Nong Zhigao, who established himself as the emperor of the Great Southern Kingdom, is still on the run.

Although Nong Zhigao can't be caught, it doesn't hurt, but since the army has arrived here, it is not far from Guangyuan Prefecture, so it is also excellent to take this opportunity to go to Guangyuan Prefecture to arrest Nong Zhigao, and it is also excellent to sweep by the way. It is said that there are a lot of gold mines in Guangyuan Prefecture!

And according to those captured Li De'an's personal soldiers, Nong Zhigao also buried a lot of treasures in Guangyuan Prefecture, and the reason why Li De'an let Nong Zhigao go was because Nong Zhigao exchanged those treasures.

The Western Army is bitter, it's really bitter, it's all tears when you talk too much! is also a forbidden army, the forbidden army in Beijing is standing guard all day long, bullying and bullying the common people, but they eat and drink spicy food all day long, and the weapons and equipment are also selected for them first, and the food and salary are much higher. However, the Western Army has to be stationed in the bitter cold land of the northwest all the year round, and it has to fight hard with those party members all day long, but this weapon and equipment cannot be compared with the Beijing Forbidden Army, and the food and salary are much lower, which is really unbalanced.

Finally, this time I sent troops to release the horses, and I had a chance to make a fortune, so I naturally wanted to make a little money. It's good to go back and improve your equipment and improve your life. Now that he has finished beating Nong Zhigao and finished Jiaozhi people, it is the time for the Western Army to make a fortune.

When the Western Army entered Yongzhou City, Nong Zhigao only had time to take away a few of the countless treasures that were soft and light, and most of the rest were left in Yongzhou City. Although his Nong soldiers burned a lot of treasures when they set fire to his "palace", the Western army still found a lot of treasures in other parts of Yongzhou City outside his "palace".

The soft and light treasures that Nong Zhigao carried away were all taken by Li De'an. Now, of course, it naturally fell into the pockets of the Western Army. In addition to the soft treasures brought by Nong Zhigao, the Western Army also found a lot of treasures and valuable things from the Jiaozhi barracks, and the trip was really fruitful.

Of course, according to the rules, these seized things must be handed over to the imperial court. However, after these things were handed over to the imperial court, the imperial court would generally give most of the rewards to the Western Army.

Of course, when most of these treasures are rewarded to the Western Army, I am afraid that they will be scraped layer by layer by the officials who handle them, and there will be much less.

Therefore, Di Qing generally simply let his subordinates secretly keep most of them, and as for the very small part handed over to the imperial court, it is enough to have a reasonable explanation to the imperial court. After all, they came to quell the rebellion as the key, not to seize the treasure. At that time, he said that his subordinates were focused on killing the enemy, and they didn't care too much about the captured booty, and no one could find fault with it.

The military discipline of the Western Army is very strict, very strict, but anyone who does not obey the order will be severely beaten and beheaded. But only for the private possession of war booty, officers at all levels will turn a blind eye, will release some water, and will not be too strict with their subordinates.

Officers at all levels also know that most of the soldiers of the Western Army under their command are men from Guanzhong, and most of them are from poor families. These soldiers in the Western army often did not live to be thirty years old, because the enemies they faced were too vicious, and they fought too many battles and were too bitter.

These men of the Western Army under their command are all generous and heroic men, they may not care about their life and death, but they are not without feelings. Western army men often can't fulfill filial piety at home, can't give their children father's love, and can't give their mother-in-law an arm to rely on at home. What I can do for them is to try to give them some financial help, hoping that the life of my relatives will be better. Most of the Western Army men who secretly hid the spoils of war probably thought so.

The food and salary of the Western Army is not high, and they have been working hard all day long, and these things are all obtained by them desperately and defeating the enemy, even if they hide some privately, officers at all levels really can't bear to let them hand it over. In the final analysis, the Western Army is having a hard time!

The Western Army had a hard time, and it was rare to have a chance to get rich, so since there was a chance to get rich, Di Qing felt that he couldn't let it go.

So Di Qing left the Western Army infantry to supervise the prisoners of the Jiaozhi Army and the Nong Army to build a Jingguan, and he personally took the Western Army cavalry to Guangyuan Prefecture to hunt down the thief leader Nong Zhigao.
