When Guo Ziyi set off, his third son Guo Xi tightly grabbed his father's reins, "The Hui people are like wolves and tigers, and my father is a dignified marshal, how can I send him to the door as a prisoner?" ”，

Guo Ziyi told her son, "Now the enemy is strong and I am weak, if we fight hard, our father and son will die in battle, and Jiangshan Sheji will be in danger." If you can negotiate with the Hui and persuade them to defect,

That is the blessing of the people of Limin, turning the tide of the war, in one move", he pushed his son away and rode away towards the Hui military camp. When Yao Geluo heard that Guo Ziyi was coming, he was suspicious, and he was afraid of fraud, so he ordered someone to bend his bow and arrows, and wait for him.

Guo Ziyi took off his helmet, took off his armor, put down his weapon, and walked slowly. When he came to Yaoge Luo, the Hui chieftains bowed down together and expressed their sincere welcome.

Guo Ziyi repliced Yao Geluo, "In the past, the Hui army traveled thousands of miles to help us recover the two capitals, and the Tang Dynasty was very good to you."

What a foolish move it is for you to break the Old Testament and aid the traitors today. Fugu Huai'en betrayed the court and abandoned his mother, what good would such a person do to Hui? Yao Geluo was very ashamed, and immediately made his position clear to Guo Ziyi,

"We were deceived by Fugu Huai'en, he said that the Heavenly Khan had died, Guo Linggong had died, and there was no owner in the Central Plains.

We have only raised troops to come here, and now we know that the Heavenly Khan is still in Chang'an City, Guo Linggong is here again, and Fugu Huaien was killed by God, how can we go against the Tang Dynasty again? ”，

Guo Ziyi saw Yao Geluo's attitude, and took the opportunity to encourage him, "Tubo and the Tang Dynasty are originally the countries of nephews and uncles,

If you join forces with the Tang army and fight back, you can not only get the property stolen by the Tibetans, but also continue to be friendly with the Tang Dynasty, which is a godsend. You can't miss it."

Yao Ge Rome agreed, "We have been deceived here by Fugu Huai'en, we have been ashamed of Ling Gong, and we are willing to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions." Redeem the merit for the guilt".

The two sides made a plan to jointly attack Tubo, and the Tubo army was in great trouble, and in the west of Lingtai (now west of Lingtai County, Gansu), the Tang Dynasty and the Hui alliance army attacked with thunder and beheaded 50,000 people. More than 10,000 people were captured, more than 4,000 craftsmen and women were captured by Tibet, and tens of thousands of cattle, alpacas and horses were seized.

The attacking Tang armies from all walks of life were terrified and fled. Guo Ziyi rode alone and retreated, and since then he has been famous for thousands of years and has been passed down as a good story.

During the reign of Emperor Zong of the Tang Dynasty, Guo Ziyi was stationed in Hezhong (now Yongjixi, Shanxi) and Pizhou as a deputy marshal, repelling the Tibetan invasion of Kou several times, guarding the peace of the Tang Empire.

In the fourteenth year of the Great Calendar (779 AD), Tang Dynasty Zong died. Tang Dezong Li Shi succeeded to the throne, summoned Guo Ziyi to return to the court, entered the title of Taiwei and Zhongshu Order, gave the title of Shangfu, and removed the post of deputy marshal and jiedu envoy.

Let the old general go home and enjoy it. In the second year of Jianyuan (781 AD), the eighty-five-year-old Guo Ziyi died, and was buried in Jianling (the tomb of Li Heng of Tang Suzong, now Liquan County, Shaanxi), and Tang Dezong went to Anfumen to cry.

According to the etiquette system, Guo Ziyi's tomb should be eight feet high, and the imperial court deliberately increased the tomb by another ten feet. In order to highlight Guo Ziyi's world-class exploits.

Throughout Guo Ziyi's life, he has been in danger of the world for nearly 30 years, "the power is not taboo in the world, there is no doubt about the merits of the world, and those who want to discuss the extravagant poor are not degraded", it is not easy for others to get one of them. Guo Ziyi has everything, which is really an outlier in Chinese history.

As a boss, he is lenient and simple, good at cultivating and discovering talents, and dozens of his subordinates are famous for their merits.

As a courtier, he is loyal to the sun and the moon, and his heart is the same. As a father, he and Mrs. Wang strictly taught their children, and their sons and daughters were of good character and outstanding talents, and none of them went on the slope.

His third son Guo Xi was stationed in Pizhou, assisting Bai Xiaode to defend Tubo and Hui, Guo Xi had more than a dozen soldiers drunk and made trouble, and also pulled out a knife and stabbed the owner of the hotel.

It caused a great shock in Guo Xi's barracks, and the sergeants were ready to slaughter this bold old man. Duan Xiushi taught Guo Xi a lesson in person,

"Guo Linggong's merits are world-renowned, and everyone admires you, as his son, but you connive at the soldiers to run rampant and do misdeeds, if this continues, can the Guo family's reputation still be preserved", Guo Xi was very ashamed and sincerely thanked Duan Xiushi,

Thinking that this was his care and love for himself, he did not allow the sergeant to embarrass Duan Xiushi, Duan Xiushi spent the night in Guo Xi's barracks, and Guo Xi personally stood guard for him to prevent evildoers from harming him.

The next day, he and Duan Xiushi went to Bai Xiaode to apologize, Guo Xi should really owe this to Guo Ziyi and his wife's good teaching and loyalty.

Guo Ziyi's daughter is also a talented woman, once, two famous painters for Guo Ziyi's son-in-law Zhao Zong's portrait, after the painting, everyone thinks that the two portraits are inferior, Guo Ziyi's daughter is amazing, and has been unanimously recognized by everyone, she said that the painter surnamed Han "has the appearance of Zhao Lang",

The painter surnamed Zhou "also moved his spirit, and got Zhao Lang's temperament and smile", if he didn't have a profound cultural accomplishment, how could he say such an incisive comment.

Guo Xi and the concubine Guo Hua are both the sons-in-law of Mrs. Wang, who lived and died with Tang Dezong in the disaster of Fengtian, fought bloodily, and inherited Guo Ziyi's loyal and martyred family style.

The emperor relied on the Guo family, Guo Hua and the daughter of Princess Shengping married his cousin Li Chun, that is, the later Tang Xianzong, Guo Hua and Princess Shengping's son Guo Jun married his cousin Princess Hanyang, Guo Jun is seven feet (2.1 meters) long, dignified appearance, if it is not for outstanding character, how can the royal family be so keen on "kissing and kissing".

Guo Ziyi's blessings lasted for a long time, and during the reign of Renzong of the Song Dynasty, the emperor also visited his civilian descendants and gave him an official position to show that loyal and righteous people would shield future generations.

As a colleague, Guo Ziyi has insight into the world, and the palace of Fenyang County has always been open, and the peddlers and pawns can enter and exit. Once, one of Guo Ziyi's generals went to serve in the field,

Go to the palace of Fenyang County to resign. In the palace, he saw the dignified king of Fenyang County working as a slave for his wife and daughter, carrying washing water and a hand towel. Guo Ziyi's son felt that his face was gloomy, and persuaded his father together, hoping that his father would be self-respecting and not let outsiders laugh at him.

"My horses eat 500 of the public fodder, and my slaves eat more than 1,000 of the official food, if I build a high wall. does not interact with the outside, as long as someone has an enmity with the Guo family, and people who are jealous of the Guo family fan the flames.

The Guo clan is likely to invite the disaster of extermination. Now I open the door of the house and let people come and go, even if someone tries to frame me, they can't find an excuse", the sons suddenly realized. They all admired their father's foresight.

When Guo Ziyi was nursing at home in her later years, the prince and general came to visit, and Guo Ziyi's concubine never had to avoid it.

When Tang Dezong's favorite minister Lu Qi came to visit, Guo Ziyi hurriedly asked the concubines to retreat, and she sat down to receive the "ghost-looking blue" minister of the dynasty.

After Lu Qi left, the family asked the reason, and Guo Ziyi said, "Lu Qi is an ugly person. is sinister, if the concubine sees him, she will definitely laugh out loud, Lu Qi will definitely hold a grudge, in the future, he will be in power, reminiscing about the past suspicions, my Guo family will be in trouble."

Later, Lu Qi became the prime minister, "I am jealous of myself, and I will not die more than once", which completely fulfilled Guo Ziyi's statement. A catastrophe was eliminated by Guo Ziyi without a trace.

To be an enemy, in addition to the heroic tiger courage who retreated from the enemy alone, the fierce generals of the feudal town also bowed to Guo Ziyi like a ritual, and Tian Chenghei, who has always been unruly, said. "I haven't knelt on my knees for a long time, and today I kneel for Guo Linggong."

Guo Ziyi's life has gone through seven dynasties of Wu Zetian, Tang Zhongzong, Tang Ruizong, Tang Xuanzong, Tang Suzong, Tang Dynasty Sect, and Tang Dezong.

It can really be called a model of people and ministers, and a model of soldiers. He married a good woman from a family with five surnames, if he got a wife, what more could he ask for? At this point in life, what are the regrets?

Li Jing

"Although our society has generally departed from the old way of parental matchmaking, young men and women do not understand the true meaning of free love in the West, and Western girls will quickly have the courage to love the person she wants to love, readily agree to his date, and accept his ** enthusiastically.

But our Chinese ladies are not like this, she wants to take a big shelf first, she wants to take a sincerity exam first, and use the method of 'hard work and hard work' to hang her boyfriend's appetite,

Again and again, again and again, her patient test is like a sieve, sifting later, the essence is sifted away, only the dross is left, the man with bones is sifted away, and the old thick-skinned mediocrity becomes a husband! This is Mr. Li Ao's classic quotation, although mean, but it is the truth, but,

The Chinese ancestors were not like this, in the past, when the four sides were shocked, the Han people were heroic, broad and open, and later they were bullied by foreign races so that they lost their temper, so they took a magnifying glass all day long to test the chastity of women and appreciate women's small feet.

If there is no historical record and legendary rendering, it is almost difficult for us to believe that our ancestors of the Tang Dynasty have the bearing and mind that are not inferior to Western men.

Li Jing, the most prosperous martial arts in the early Tang Dynasty, is the legendary immortal hero, in "The Legend of the Bearded Guest", the beautiful Tang Dynasty woman has extraordinary courage and discerning insight, and the prime minister Yang Su's housekeeper took a fancy to Li Jing's extraordinary bearing, and ran late at night.

In harmony with Li Jing, this virtuous couple met a bearded man with great ambitions, and the three of them crisscrossed the rivers and lakes, acting chivalrous and righteous, and they were called the "Three Heroes of Wind and Dust".

Li Jing in the history books is not a cloth cloth, he is a son of a family with both civil and military skills, in the hunting banner of the early Tang Dynasty, he conquered the south and the north, invincible, and made immortal contributions to the Tang Dynasty. Collect Guanshan fifty states. Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis? ”

Li Jing's martial arts have a family history, which starts with his life experience. Li Jing's ancestral home is Yongzhou Sanyuan (now the northeast of Sanyuan County, Shaanxi), belongs to the Li family of Longxi, his grandfather Li Chongyi once served as the assassin of Yinzhou in the Western Wei Dynasty, and was named the Duke of Yongkang, and his father Li Quan was the county guard of Zhao County in the Sui Dynasty, Li Jing received a good education since he was a child, and he cultivated both civil and military.

He has a world-famous uncle, that is, Han Baohu, who captured the queen of Chen, this famous general of the Sui Dynasty is full of praise for his nephew, "The only person who can discuss the art of war with Sun and Wu is Li Jing."

Han Baohu decided that his nephew had a great future, and conducted extremely strict training on his nephew, forcing his nephew to practice archery and horses diligently. He said to Li Jing, "Give you three months to practice well, and after three months, I will stand on the school ground, with a small iron ring hanging on each ear and a copper coin on my bald head."

You come on horseback, pick off the hoop with your gun, and make another move back to the carbine, and pick out the copper coins from my head, and if you don't shoot correctly, you may well kill me." Of course, Li Jing did not dare to slack off, and practiced day and night in order to pass the exam.

After three months of hard practice, Li Jing fully met his uncle's requirements, he operated a gun and jumped on the horse, and picked off the iron ring on his uncle's ear in two moves, and picked off the copper coin with a shot back to the horse, several times and three times, none of them missed, so that Han Baohu was very satisfied, the son can be taught, and there are successors, what can be more gratifying than this.

Li Jing was portrayed by his relatives as a good son with both civil and military skills, and was soon praised by the ministers of the Sui Dynasty.

Niu Hong, the secretary of the ministry, praised Li Jing, "This person has the talent of Wang Zuo", and the prime minister Yang Su pointed to his seat and told Li Jing, "Your Excellency will definitely be able to sit in this seat in the future", Li Jing did it, but he did not do it as the prime minister of the Great Sui Empire, but the left servant of the Shangshu of the Tang Empire.

Li Jing started out as a minor official such as Gong Cao of Chang'an County and a member of the Driving Department of the Military Department, and in the twelfth year of Emperor Yang of Sui, he became the county commander of Mayi (now Shuo County, Shanxi) and became the subordinate of Li Yuan left behind in Taiyuan.

Li Yuan was plotting to rebel at that time, and Li Jing was of course aware of it, and he planned to go to Jiangdu to report it to Emperor Yang of Sui.

For unknown reasons, he later changed his mind and returned to Chang'an, and soon after, Li Yuan's father and son captured Chang'an, and Li Jing became Li Yuan's prisoner.

Li Yuan paid a heavy price for raising troops, his fifth son Li Zhiyun was brutally killed, his ancestral grave was dug up, and his anger was vented on these Sui Dynasty officials, and Li Jing was sentenced to beheading.

When he was about to be executed, his expression remained unchanged and calm, and he shouted loudly to Li Yuan, "You, Li Yuan, raised an army, originally to cut off the riots for the world and achieve great causes, why did you behead strong men because of personal grudges?" ”

Li Shimin was also present at the time, he tried his best to intercede for Li Jing, Li Yuan had to push the boat down the river and pardoned Li Zhuangshi, at that time, he may not have thought that he left this life, is to leave infinite vitality for his country, Li Jing has to meet a famous master, the future is a thousand miles, he is about to show an incomparably brilliant brilliance.

In the second year of Wude (619 AD), Tang Gaozu Li Yuan transferred Li Jing from Li Shimin's side and asked Li Jing to go to conquer Ran Zhaoze, the leader of the ethnic minorities, who was gathering tens of thousands of horses to attack Kuizhou.

Li Jing encountered Xiao Miao's army on the road, was blocked in Xiazhou, and failed to arrive in time, and Li Xiaogong, the king of Zhao County stationed in Kuizhou, lost the first battle.

Xiao Mo is a descendant of the royal family of the Liang Dynasty, taking advantage of the chaos in the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty, he controlled a large area of land in the Yangtze River Valley, with 400,000 armor, and his reputation spread far and wide. (To be continued.) )
