First, explain something about the title of the previous section.

Ji Chou, guarding the Yellow River volunteers Wan Hu Tian Feng rebelled, trapped Jining Road,

……

Shi Tian Feng and Pu led the crowd to Kou and shot him away.

……

Zhao Huainan Zhixing Privy Council affairs took off and led the troops to fight Huainan. The edict was issued to Li Bingyi, Tian Feng and others in Jining, ordering them to surrender and reinstate their duties.

……

Feng fell, the east was flat, and Ling Feng was the vanguard, and he asked for it from the east of the army. Yu Bao of Dizhou, Wang Shicheng of Dongping, Yang Cheng of Dongchang and others all surrendered, and Lu Di was determined. Entering Jinan, Liu Jue surrendered, and then besieged Yidu.

……

In May, Quanzhou Saifuding was based on Fuzhou Road, and Pingzhang Yan, Fujian Province, was defeated by nothing, and the rest of the navigation was also based on Quanzhou. Fujian Provincial Governor Chen Youding Futingzhou Road. Wuzi, the comet's light swept up. Tian Feng and Wang Shicheng assassinated Chakhan Timur, and then entered the city of Yidu, and the people recommended Chakhan Timur's son Kuangku Timur as the chief military officer and restored the siege of Yidu.

……

Yi Si, expanded Timur Fuyidu, Tian Feng and other Fu Xu.

……

The above article is quoted from "History of the Yuan", although Tian Feng is not qualified to set up a biography in this book, he can be regarded as clearly leaving his footprints.

The Yuan Dynasty, from the middle to late periods, or, more specifically, after the death of Kublai Khan, can be classified as one of the darkest periods of Chinese politics. There is no political ethics that can be recognized at all, and no matter what you want, you always use a knife to speak.

In Dadu, ten emperors have been changed in the past 30 years, and the imperial wars are fought almost every day, and the generals and strong soldiers of the whole country have to participate in it, express their positions, or end up fighting, and use swords and swords to determine the position of the emperor and important ministers. The rules of the political game in the Yuan Dynasty were still as rough as the grasslands, and when they wanted to replace an important minister, the solution was often to lure him out of the palace and then hack him to death, and when they wanted to decide who would be the emperor, the solution was usually to bring their own military horses and fight in Hebei, Liaoning, Shanxi and Henan, until one of the forces was completely annihilated.

At the grassroots level, officials, officials and local tycoons, like the rulers of the capital, did not hesitate to use swords and swords to protect or expand their property, it was an era when life was extremely low, it was an era when desire flowed nakedly, and it was difficult to imagine a more miserable world for those who had no fists and no bravery.

That world, today we can get a glimpse of it from "Water Margin": even those characters who are portrayed as positive characters, Shi Jin, because he has no money, he goes to the pine forest to "beg for some entanglement" with a knife. Yan Qing, when she was hungry in her stomach, she thought "why don't you knock down two with two punches and take the package", Dong Ping, after earning the city, the first thing is to "take this daughter", and take the whole family that killed "this daughter", Chao Gai, and Song Jiang sat idle, while cutting meat from Huang Wenbing's body and roasting it, while talking and laughing happily...... All this is the world that Mr. Shi and Mr. Luo have witnessed with their own eyes, the world at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

In such a turbulent era, the resistance will naturally not be broken, and the situation at that time was that the people were swarming and the smoke and dust were all over the ground. The policy of the Yuan Dynasty was to mobilize the central army to suppress it on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also acquiesced in the suppression by local forces.

These teams that copy their own soldiers, if they can fight enough and have a record, they will be sealed. For them, there is a special title, called volunteers, Tian Feng, is such a volunteer soldier.

The last regime that encouraged the county to copy soldiers to suppress the peasant army was called the Han Dynasty, and the local tycoons who suppressed the Taiping Yellow Turbans also ended the 400-year national fortune of the Han Dynasty. Soon, the government of the Yuan Dynasty deeply understood the meaning of a sentence and knew what it meant to "mourn for future generations but not learn from it, and also make future generations mourn for future generations." ”

When the first batch of peasant armies were suppressed, these "loyal ministers" who did not have enough to eat were transformed into new rebels.

…… Tian Feng is such a person.

He started by suppressing the peasant army, and then rebelled, and when his power was at its greatest, it was enough to radiate to the whole of Shandong.

Then, after Chahan Timur led the elite troops of the Yuan Court from the north to the south, and easily defeated many resistance forces in Shandong and Huaihai regions, he considered that Tian Feng "Feng has been in Shandong for a long time, and the army and the people obey it, so he sent a letter to rebel against the reason." Subsequently, Tian Feng surrendered and served as the front army, defeating almost all the resistance forces for him. Only a lonely city was left in Yidu, which was guarded and not surrendered.

…… Then, it was the most shocking moment.

All provinces are peaceful, the army is besieging the city, and the situation is completely hopeless. Then, under such circumstances, Tian Feng assassinated Chakhan Timur and rushed into the city, where he and his former comrades continued to defend this lonely city. In the end, the city was broken by the son of Chakhan Timur, and Tian Feng was caught and died by digging out his heart.

Naturally, there are many explanations for Tian Feng's actions: for example, he sensed the suspicion and hostility of the imperial court towards his status, for example, from the beginning he was just waiting for a valley city...... But none of this can be explained.

Tian Feng, he, was at the most desperate moment of the Shandong Resistance Army, and changed his front.

Black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it...... This is probably not enough to describe the situation at that time, and within May, Chahan was like a violent wind, which swept away the resistance of the whole Shandong, and Yidu was the last remaining spark, which at that time seemed to be able to be extinguished in one breath.

Would anyone have defected from the Yuan army in March 1272, broken through the defensive line, and defected to Lü Wenhuan, who was trapped in Xiangyang?

Would anyone have defected from the Qing army in August 1641, fought through the siege, and defected to Hong Chengchou, who was besieged on Songshan?

……

But Tian Feng, he did so.

Yidu can not be defended, a successful assassination, can not change the huge gap from organization to command to armor and soldiers, etc., the city finally fell, the commander is the son of Chahan, Tian Feng was captured, digging out the heart of the sacrifice.

……

No matter from the perspective of the values of that era, Tian Feng was certainly not a good person, and the blood of innocents on his hands was thousands, but when he made up his mind to kill Timur and enter the place of death, and stay with his past comrades, at least, in my heart, this character completed a sublimation.

And the character of Ma Daokong was created based on Tian Feng, so I must let him ask such a sentence, no matter how abrupt and blunt it seems, because this was originally my original intention.

The description of Yuan Dang's subordinates standing at the head of the city to die is because I want more people to know that there was such a loyal and fierce general in the Kui Huan army, and to describe Ma Daokong's sudden launch in front of the two armies after ten years of humiliation, because I want more people to know that there was such a leader of the rebel army in Shandong at the end of the Yuan Dynasty...... These stories don't belong to me, I don't create any stories, these are the stories they wrote with their lives, I'm just a porter of history.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In addition, some people probably noticed that in the month when Tian Feng assassinated Chahan, there was another record, called "May Yi Sishuo, Quanzhou Saifu Ding according to Fuzhou Road." ”

…… That's right, it was him, the Yisi Pa Xi Army's Righteous Army Wanhu, who grew up with the support of Quanzhou Yishang as a Semu from the Middle East, and eventually became the leader of the local armed forces, and in fact* the person who ruled half of Fujian, the Righteous Army Wanhu, Saifuding.

The story of the Flying Light Chapter was originally based on this event in history, and the ins and outs of the entire event, when the Flying Light Chapter is over, a separate chapter will be opened to introduce it in detail.

…… Next, let's continue to read the story of the three brothers of the Zhang family!
