Chapter 305: Makino Meditation
Under the guidance of Yan Yu Yi's gourd, Liu Chan and his entourage entered the Tiger Prison without any suspense. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Witnessing this scene, Liu Chan cried and laughed helplessly. In the fierce and gentle offensive of money and sugar-coated shells, even the most impregnable city will soon crumble, and even the mighty army will unwittingly disarm and surrender. It seems that it is necessary to build an iron army that treats money as dung, so that military generals are not afraid of death, and civil officials are not greedy for money.
At this point, it was 10 p.m. Liu Chan, who was reluctant to give up, decided to spend one night in the Tiger Prison.
After having dinner at the Wanchang Restaurant, the highest in Tiger Prison Pass, Liu Chan and others went up to the top floor with great interest in exploring the secluded and looking for the ancients.
At this time, the sky was already full of sunset, and the sun that had fallen into the horizon of the source of the Yellow River presented a huge and blood-red circle. The Yellow River, which flows upstreams upstreams from the eastern sky, is a slightly dim river surface with a layer of red and orange colors at this time. There is quite a bit of artistic conception of "the mountains are like the sea, and the remnant sun is like blood".
Under the enthusiastic rendering of the setting sun, the whole sky is divided into fragmented fire clouds, like brightly colored islands on the map, and like golden or red waves tumbling and jumping on the overflowing Yellow River. At this time, the sun and the Yellow River, the clouds and the river, and even the sky and the earth are all infinitely close to each other, and it is impossible to distinguish between you and me.
The mountains, forests, castles, and cottages on both sides of the Yellow River, the fishing boats in the river, the birds that occasionally fly by from time to time, and countless flying insects add a touch of vivid pictures to this beautiful huge static picture, which makes people feel refreshed and fascinated.
This situation and this scene made Liu Chan finally appreciate the empty and vast artistic conception of "the sun is at the end of the mountain, and the Yellow River flows into the sea", as well as the vast and majestic realm similar to "the desert is lonely and the smoke is straight, and the sun sets on the long river".
However, no matter how magnificent the scenery is, after all, it is "the sunset is infinitely good, but it is just near dusk". Just like the Han Dynasty, which once reigned for hundreds of years, it could not jump out of the domination of the cycle rate of rise and fall of "its rise is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden", and it cannot avoid the historical law that prosperity must decline, and decline must prosper, repeating the mistake of "people die and politics rest".
How can we achieve long-term peace and stability and avoid the law of rise and fall for hundreds of years. This is a strategic event that Liu Chan needs to focus on thinking, brainstorming, and solving after he wins the world.
The once turbulent Yellow River obviously cannot answer this insoluble question, and now it can only roar heavily, gurgling silently to the east, and the golden river surface faintly echoes the shocking shouts of killing on the ancient battlefield of Tiger Prison.
Pillowing the tiger prison and listening to the sound of the waves sung by the Yellow River through the ages, Liu Chan slept very soundly and sweetly that night.
The next day, after the usual routine, we crossed the Yellow River by boat at Yumen Gudu and continued north.
A few hours to Hanoi.
Zhao Yun introduced that Hanoi, as the name suggests, is the name of the north of the Yellow River within the Yellow River. During the Warring States period, Hanoi was the territory of Wei, and Sima Mao, the ancestor of Sima Yi at the end of Qin, was named King Yin by Xiang Yu, and the capital was in Hanoi. When Han Gaozu ascended the throne, he set up the Yin State, and the following year it was renamed Hanoi County, located in the southeast of Taihang Mountain and north of the Yellow River. Sixteen counties including Shanyang, Chaoge, and Wenxian are led. Sima Yi's family is the big family of Wen County, and in the sixth year of Jian'an, Sima Yi was made the head of Hanoi County.
Make a short stop in Hanoi after lunch. Liu Chan and the others began to hurry again, and a few hours later, they came to the boundary of Muye County.
Makino is a famous place name in the history of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The princes of the Shang Dynasty, the Taishi, the loyal ministers of the ages, the ancestor of the Lin surname, and the Western Zhou Dynasty national teacher Jiang Shang were all born here.
Looking at the stone tablet with "Muye" written on it, Liu Chan smiled and said, "Fourth uncle, where does the name of Makino come from?" ”
Zhao Yun thought for a while and said: "Muyeyuan is not a proper noun, and it is relative to Yindu Chaoge here. From the inside to the outside of the song city, it is called the city, Guo, suburbs, herding, and wilderness. "Erya" cloud: The suburbs are called the suburbs, the suburbs are called the pasture, the pasture is called the wilderness, and the wilderness is called the forest. It means that the suburbs around a city or town are called the suburbs, where people farm; The outskirts of the suburbs are called pastures, which are places for grazing; The outer part of the herd is called the wilderness, and it is a place where wild beasts infest. The correct explanation is that the pasture itself is a settlement, and the so-called pastoral field refers to the wide field outside the settlement. ”
It is a magnificent scene of the sunset again, the ancient mottled city wall, the historic sites, the Bigan Temple, and the Jiang Taigong Temple are all bathed in the golden sunset, which looks more solemn and solemn, and makes people awe-inspiring.
Standing under the historical sky full of colorful clouds, Liu Chan traced the past and cherished the present, felt the rich and majestic and long-standing civilization of China, exuded eternal meditation, and was full of emotion.
The reason why Makino is famous is because in the last years of the Yin Shang Dynasty, the battle of Makino in which 800 princes would ally and help Zhou to fight against Zhou took place here.
Xu Shen's "Shuo Wen Jie Zi" said: Muyi is seventy miles south of Chaoge, and King Wu of Zhou fought with Mu Ye. This battle enabled Zhou to succeed in acting as a merchant on behalf of the merchants, which was the second revolution in Chinese history.
The ancient meaning of revolution is the mandate of change, which was first seen in "Zhou Yi? Hexagram? Biography": Heaven and earth revolution and four o'clock, Tang Wu revolution, according to the sky and people.
Revolution is an act of achieving justice and restoring order, which means changing the dynasty. Shang Tang's overthrow of the Xia Dynasty became known as the "Tang Wu Revolution". And the king of Zhou Wu who has a way to defeat the king of Shang who has no way is a revolution.
The Battle of Muye of the Shang and Zhou dynasties was a famous ancient war in Chinese history, marking the end of the 555-year history of the Yin and Shang dynasties. This battle made an indelible contribution to the enrichment of the treasure trove of the Chinese language, leaving behind a long list of idioms or palms. For example, being cautious, a match made in heaven, Huang Yue and Bai Xuan, white fish into the boat, red bird flowing house, knocking on the horse to block the admonition, not eating Zhou Su, loving the house and Wu, helping the gang to abuse, centurion to the teacher, the former disciple defected, the blood flow and pestle, the knife and gun into the warehouse, the horse put into the Nanshan Mountain, and so on.
Liu Chan realized a universal truth from this, that is, the unrighteous have little help, and the righteous have more help. At the same time, it is necessary to "schem" and "smash relations" tactics to win the hearts and minds of the people, tie the enemy's wings, paralyze the opponent, and establish a united front. Choose the right strategic timing. The decisive battle should be used in a combination of odd and positive. It is necessary to learn the lessons of the rapid defeat of the Shang kings, to be politically clear, and to combine the rule of law with moral politics.
On the morning of the next day, Liu Chan asked Yan Yu and others to prepare some offerings, and went to Jiang Taigong Temple and Bigan Temple to worship Jiang Taigong and Bigan Gong respectively.
Jiang Shang Jiang Taigong is an influential and outstanding strategist, strategist, military strategist and politician, who is respected as the "Hundred Masters of Schools" by Confucianism, Taoism, Law, Soldiers, and Vertical and Horizontal Schools. In particular, the military theory masterpiece "Liutao" has established his supreme historical position as a military master, a strategist, a military saint, and a martial ancestor.
Liu Chan pretended to be accepted as an apprentice by Jiang Taigong in a dream, intending to cover up his mysterious origin and pretend to be stupid to protect himself. The most fundamental purpose of worshipping Jiang Taigong is to advertise that Liu Chan and Confucianism, Taoism, Law, Soldiers, and Zongheng are one family, so as to lay a good foundation for subduing the hundreds of schools of thought in the future.
Bi Gan Gong is not only the ancestor of Liu Chan in the later generations of the Lin family, but also a loyal minister through the ages who is loyal to the liver and courage, and a model and example of loyalty and patriotism. Worshipping Bigangong is to imperceptibly educate his subordinates, requiring them to take Bigangong as an example and be a loyal minister and good general who is loyal to the liver and courage, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and left a name in history.
