Pingxia city building
All the history books praise Zeng Bu for being right, Song Zhezong for doing the right, Zhang Dian is too cruel, too vicious, too villainous, and he doesn't even let go of the dead, it's too much!
We analyze it with our own eyes. It is indeed not elegant to dig a grave, but it is necessary to divide the object! In view of the situation at that time and with reference to later developments, it proved that the old party was harmful to the Northern Song Dynasty and the Han nation. In the Northern Song Dynasty, they undermined the absolute superiority of the New Party over foreign races during its rule, and by the Southern Song Dynasty, the old party ideology became the only official norm of the Song Dynasty, and these guidelines led to the first time in the history of the Han nation!
Tracing back to the roots, the old bastard has a huge impact! But even in modern times, he still shines brightly in his image. What is it for? First, it was the official recognition of him in the Song Dynasty. Second, it is a book of "General Guide to Information Governance", which has a huge role. The Chinese firmly respect the thinking of the literati, believing that great writers must be sages, and great writers will never be bastards?
Actually, where is it! Countless examples have proved that in ancient and modern times, people with talent and no virtue are everywhere! If we want to prevent trouble before it happens and completely destroy the old party, the aura of the old bastard must be wiped out, and he must be erased in all directions from personality to resume, from official to private!
History will prove that everything Zhang Dian did was selfless and far-sighted, and compared with the later disasters of the Song Dynasty, it will be found that everything he did before that seemed vicious and murderous was for the good of the Song Dynasty! If I listened to him earlier, I could pack a ticket: there will never be the difficulty of Jingkang and the misery of Nandu!
Unfortunately, the truth is often in the hands of a few, and what is even more sad is that it is a luxury to want the majority to understand, especially at the time of the incident...
On the 28th, Zhang Dian officially reported a list of 35 people! Yuanyou party members: Lv Dafang, Liu Zhi, Su Zhe, Liang Tao, Fan Chunren, Liu Fengshi, Han Wei, Lv Tao, Lv Xichun, Jia Yi, Cheng Yi, Zhu Guangting, Yang Wei... All 35 were demoted and exiled. And treat debasement as a game. Su Shi's words? Okay, go to Danzhou! What is the word Su Zhe? Check the map without the state? Find a near-form word, from being close to Tian, degrading him to Leizhou! Liu Zhi's character Xin Lao, Xin, Xin homonym, degraded him to Xinzhou!
Leap February 17. Under the strong appointment of Zhangdun, the superstructure of the Great Song Dynasty made major adjustments: the prime minister was still Zhangdun. The Zhongshu Shilang was served by the original Shangshu Zuo Cheng Xu Jiang, the Shangshu Zuo Cheng was served by the original Shangshu Right Cheng Cai Bian, and the Shangshu Right Cheng was promoted to the former Shangshu Huang Lu of the Ministry of Officials. Tongzhi Privy Council member Zeng Bu was regularized, and Tongzhi Privy Council member promoted Lin Xi, the former Hanlin scholar, to the position. There are no other people, the main thing is that Zhang Dian inserted 2 cronies Huang Lu and Lin Xi into the east and west respectively. It also shows their distrust of Xu Jiang, Zeng Bu and others. But what Zhang Dian never expected was that Lin Xi was actually seduced by Zeng Bu and betrayed him...
On April 16, 71-year-old Lu Dafang, a former prime minister, fell ill on his way to his penal colony, Xunzhou, and died on the way. On the 18th, the two giants of the old party: Lu Gongzhu was posthumously demoted to the Changhua Military Division to join the army, and Sima Guang was posthumously demoted to the Zhuya Military Division to join the army.
In the Northwest Battlefield, Zhang Qi didn't rush to take revenge after he came back, but still quietly engaged in his own small movements, which looked like some light things. For example, a lot of money is spent on people who are idle and uncertain. These people are wandering around, and no one knows their exact location. From time to time, he sent many small forces to wander around the border, and from time to time rushed into the Western Xia side, killing a few people and immediately rushing back. Then there are many small fortresses, which extend to the northwest and quietly cross the Song-Xia border... It's true that they are all small actions, but when the northwest comes to do it together, the movement is too big. Just talking about crossing the border to kill people, at this time. The Tanguts were cut down a total of 11,650, which is about the same number of casualties in a super battle...
These made the Xixia people very troubled, but they didn't know what Zhang Kai really wanted to do. He is a person who combines the tricks of famous generals in the more than 100 years of the Song and Xia Wars! Studying the war in the northwest, several of the most painful defeats continued to rise and fall in his heart. He had an unprecedentedly bold idea - to dig the pit with the greatest loss in the history of the Song army to the Tangut people!
This plan was carefully considered by him and approved by the upper echelons of the Song Dynasty. In order to cooperate with him, the emperor transferred him back to Weizhou, the capital of Jingyuan Road, instead of Gyeongju on Huanqing Road when he was guarding the border. The terrain of Jingyuan Road is more dangerous, and there are unique conditions. The Tanguts wanted to invade. There is only one best way to do this – Wuyan Gorge. In this vicinity, Zhang Qi wants to build a super military city, which is used to "bring Xingling in the east and Tiandu in the west." On the verge of the Hulu River"
Does this argument and behavior look familiar? In an instant, it reminds people of Yongle City... The Song army was defeated unprecedentedly, and Emperor Shenzong was completely sleepless and died young. What a tragic memory this is, how dare Zhang Qi repeat the mistakes of the past?
That's the embodiment of the level! The first condition for daring to do what others don't dare to do is to see what others can't! Zhang Ji has a brain that can think independently, and he sees a huge potential opportunity for victory hidden in the defeat of Yongle City. In fact, Yongle City is not just a nightmare for the Song army, it should be a dead hole for the coexistence of both enemies and us! Just see who can do what then! Whoever does it well will be able to make the opponent bleed first in the city or outside the city!
It's a risky idea, you have to be brave enough to think of it, you have to be even more bold to carry it out! In this regard, Zhang Qi is lucky, his fellow disciple and fellow countryman Zhang Dian is the most courageous and ruthless prime minister in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, it can be said that this idea is simply tailor-made for Zhang Dan, that is, to get up in the place where he fell, and use the proudest tactics of the Tangut people to kill the Tangut people! Paying back the old debts is like settling old accounts with the old party...
In order to build this city smoothly, Zhang Kai made two preparations. 1 He asked all roads in the northwest to start work collectively and overhaul the fortress in addition to my Jingyuan Road, Yanyan, Huanqing, Qinfeng, and Xihe roads. Divert the attention of the Tangut people. After-the-fact statistics: more than 50 walled forts were built in the northwest during this period, pressing on the Western Xia step by step, almost squeezing out the opponent's living space; 2. Dispatch elite soldiers from all walks of life: 30,000 Xihe Army, 10,000 Qin Feng Army, 10,000 Huanqing Army, plus Jingyuan Army Main Road, a total of 80,000, under his unified command to ensure the smooth completion of this super military city...
80,000 horses, Zhang Qi did not pile it up next to the construction site for simple defense, to make an offensive posture, suppress the Tangut people outside the border, let them be vigilant, tremble, and always on guard, and when they came back, the city had already been covered...
At the military meeting, Zhang Kai repeatedly emphasized the highest and only criterion for action - not more than 100 miles before the breakthrough! That is, the scope of the attack must be controlled. On this point, Wang Wenzhen, the commander-in-chief of the whole army and the governor of Jingyuan Lujin, has no opinion, and the leaders will do whatever they say. But a fierce man felt very unhappy. His army is special, 100 miles is too small for him to walk in! The Xihe Army is the best at interspersing and rushing troops in the Northwest Army, starting from the first generation of commander Wang Shao, it is known for its faster speed and larger transfer range than the aliens. It's not just a cover for intimidation, is it? Lord Zhang, why don't we attack first and then repair the city?
Zhang Qi was very serious: Repair the city first, there is no discussion!
… Good! Obey! Miao Zhu repeated the order: It's a hundred miles away, right? No problem!
Zhang Qi is more serious, he plays with his brain. In an instant, I heard the true meaning of Miao Zhu, "According to what you said, is Lingzhou City also a hundred miles away?" Tiandu Mountain and Xingqing Mansion are also bars, "less sloppy... Miao Zhu was completely speechless, so he had to listen to orders...
The 80,000-strong army went out of the border fortress, and on the way, every general was boiling in the powerful army array. Get out of the border and spot the enemy attack! Western Xia urgently dispatched about 80,000 soldiers and horses, led by Wei Ming A Bury and Mei Le Du, to catch up!
Miao Zhu approached the coach Wang Wenzhen and asked in a low voice: Dashuai. What are we going to do?
Wang Wenzhen looked around, and the looks of the generals told him the same heart-to fight!
Looking at the resumes of the high-ranking officials of the Western Army of the Northern Song Dynasty, almost everyone has blood stains on their account books, and no one is a good person. As the coach, Wang Wenzhen is especially so, seeing the state of his subordinates, he has no second choice at all - fight!
The specific style of play reflects his qualities as a manager. Please keep the most intense Miao Zhu first, after all, the Xihe army is not familiar with this terrain. The vanguard he sent was Zhang Ji's direct descendant. The Zhejia army is brave and good at fighting, born and raised, and it is most suitable to take the lead!
Zhi Keshi rushed out of the city with the Zhi family army and traveled all the way. Go straight to Wuyan Gorge. This is a place where both sides must fight, he didn't think that he could arrive first, he just thought that the natural danger was shared by both sides, and a fair decisive battle was fought! As he wished, Song Xia's vanguard encountered in Wuyan Gorge, and without much words, he directly started fighting. From morning to noon, the Zhejia army repelled the Tangut people, chased them out for more than 40 miles, and came back with more than 100 heads...
Wang Wenzhen was very satisfied, as an old northwestern, he knew very well what the Zhejiajun had just done. The vanguard duel, with the glue of the Tangut people, can win the battle, drive the enemy out of the main battlefield, and win it neatly and very beautifully. It's a pity that not everyone thinks so, Xihe Army Miao Zhu has always pouted: I was busy working for a long time, I ran away and sweated, and I only brought back more than 100 heads, is your Zhejia Army better than my Xihe Army? Hey... He didn't discuss with anyone, and quietly sent more than 2,000 Xihe troops to rush to the Wuyan Gorge in front of him, hiding from his boss Wang Wenzhen, and believed that huge results would soon be passed back! Especially when the Tangut people had just been defeated and could not form an army...
With such a plan, Miao Zhu was determined to surprise everyone, so he kept pressing this super hole card and didn't let anyone know. As the minutes passed, the whole army moved forward slowly, but the news he wanted never came. By the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late...
The Xihe Army is indeed the elite of the Northwest Army, and the elite soldiers sent by Miao are even more selective, with 2,000 people all cavalry. This belongings alone is not all available in the army such as Huanqing and Jingyuan!
This cavalry approached the Tanguts quickly and covertly, and as long as it could maintain its suddenness, the force of the blow would be devastating. And run away after the fight, the enemy can't chase after him...
But Miao Zhu underestimated Wei Ming's burial, the royal generals of Western Xia had a very traditional tradition of Li Yuanhao, and they were full of treachery when fighting, setting one trap after another. What did Zhe Keshi do just now, only chase out of Lu for more than 40 miles, and immediately rush back? I'm afraid of suddenly encountering an ambush!
And the Zhejia army hid, and the Xihe army just collided!
The Xihe army in the frenzy was cut into two sections, and the end could not take care of each other, and the situation was suddenly critical, but the elite Xihe army soldiers of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty did not panic at all, and immediately chose to fight separately, especially the cavalry in the first half of the split, they took advantage of the situation and attacked the Xixia people! What about an ambush? Split all the enemies, they have it!
It's a pity that they have a congenital disadvantage at this time - the terrain is unknown! The area around Wuyan Gorge, as the name suggests, has both cliffs and smoke. At this time, thousands of war horses galloped across the battlefield, and the smoke and dust rolled up covered the sky and the sun, and the Xihe army, whose eyes were full of enemies, could not see anything else, and did not care about anything outside the battle, not knowing at all that the Xixia people were leading them to a Jedi! A hidden cliff... The feet of more than 1,000 cavalrymen suddenly emptied, and they all fell ...
The elite of the elite was wiped out in such a nest, and when the news came back, the whole army was so annoyed that they wanted to kill. The commander in the rear, Zhang Ji, was especially angry, his order was discounted, and he clearly wanted you to control the range and limit it to within 100 miles!
Zhang Kai in anger always kept his senses, he knew what was the most important thing - building a city! This city must be built according to the plan, and then a series of arrangements can be gradually implemented...
The troops at the front retreated and protected the construction site, a total of 22 days before and after, and on April 21, two new cities appeared on the northwest front. One is the main city, formerly known as Shimen, and Song Zhezong personally gave the name Pingxia City. A smaller one, formerly known as Haoshui Village, Song Zhezong personally gave the name Lingping Village (Pingxia?) Pacify Western Xia! Lingping? Pingding Lingzhou)
Pingxia City, the day this city was built and the day of Pingxia City's great victory, it was the time when Xiaoliang himself was killed and the fortunes of the Western Xia country were turned upside down!
This is a later story, before the home-guest transposition, the exchange of advantages and disadvantages, Xiaoliang Hou does not understand what regret is. At this time, she only felt angry and funny, why was the people of the Song Dynasty so boring? The most intelligent, wisest, and most cultured race in the legend is like a tenacious idiot, always crawling in and out of the same pit? Have they forgotten how Yongle City became a collective cemetery for more than 200,000 Han people? I had no choice but to let them reminisce...
On the fifth day after the completion of Pingxia City, Western Xia launched an offensive. Led by Wei Ming Ah Bury and Mei Le Dukui, a total of more than 100,000 people, fully armed and practical, rushed to the Song army's position! These plug-ins are all targeted, each Western Xia soldier has a knife in his right hand, a shovel in his left hand, and a large bundle of hay behind his back, ready to kill, fill ditches, and demolish cities at any time.
