Chapter Eighty-Eight: Five Generations of Famous Generals
When everyone heard Chunting say this, they suddenly realized what happened back then.
From this point of view, Zhu Wen is just a poor person.
As a general, Zhu Wen is already a great honor to be a great minister, but he couldn't stand the temptation and chose to end the Li Tang Dynasty with his own hands, and since then, he has actually doomed his own ultimate fate.
And speaking of which, the identity of the person behind Zhu Wen is actually extremely obvious, and he only needs to think about one question seriously, and the truth hidden behind him will be revealed.
The question is, the fall of the Li Tang Dynasty is the most beneficial to which force?
And the answer is undoubtedly behind the end of the Li Tang Dynasty, its ultimate beneficiary must be the weak water who is bent on making the world rise again.
Because as long as Li Tang does not die one day, Shenzhou will not come to the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms one day, and for weak water, this is definitely not the situation they want to see.
At the same time, the weak water that has been inherited for thousands of years is naturally clear, as the so-called hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, even if the Li Tang Dynasty looks like this, it is by no means something that anyone can subvert, if there is no destiny of the Son of Heaven, the subversion of the dynasty will have to suffer the retribution of cause and effect.
Therefore, they finally chose Zhu Wen, ostensibly to help him establish himself as emperor, but in fact, it was to make him bear the price after the termination of Li Tang.
In the end, Li Tang was destroyed, Zhu Wen died, and Shenzhou entered the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms, but there was no loss of weak water.
From this point of view, Weak Water's plan is really a deal that will not suffer losses no matter what, and it is under their plan that Shenzhou has entered that period of war and chaos.
However, it is obvious that at the same time, the Emperor Xudu and the King of Yama, who were aware of the problem, did not sit on the sidelines, and these two entered the Shenzhou under pseudonyms and participated in this multi-party game.
This big drama is slowly starting to get interesting.
"The establishment of the Later Liang stemmed from the demise of Li Tang, and because Zhu Wen did not have the destiny of the Son of Heaven, even if there was a weak water behind him, the Later Liang could not become a long-term dynasty, and only sixteen years later, this short-lived regime came to an end."
I don't know when, Chunting spoke again, and his words were leisurely, as if he had traveled through the long river of time.
"And the one who finally destroyed Houliang was Li Cunqing, who was known as the first fierce general of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms."
Hearing the three words Li Cunqiao, an extremely contradictory image suddenly appeared in my mind.
Li Cunmiao is the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty after the Five Dynasties period, the son of Li Keyong, the king of Jin, if it is according to the generation, it seems that he should also call Li Cunxiao a brother.
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Li Cunqiao had already been placed in the history of Jinzhou Thorn, and then attacked his father's position, the official worship of the Hedong Jiedu envoy, into the Jin king, this person is brave and good at fighting, long in strategy, during the reign of the south of the Liang, the north of the Khitan, the east of Hebei, the west and the river, so that the Jin State gradually became stronger, the Tang Dynasty hegemony.
In the first year of Tongguang, Li Cunqiao was proclaimed emperor in Weizhou, the country was named Tang, known as the Later Tang Dynasty, and in the same year, he destroyed Houliang, took Henan, Shandong and other places, and set the capital in Luoyang, and the world admired his bravery and extraordinary.
And the so-called contradiction in my mouth has not yet begun at this time. Ambiguous 43
Later generations recorded that in the early period of Li Cunqiao's reign, he was majestic and heroic, and the scenery was unparalleled for a while, leading his subordinates to merge the Qi country, destroying the former Shu, and obtaining the land of Fengxiang, Hanzhong and Liangchuan, shaking the southern and dividing countries, and the descendants even claimed that "the realm of the five dynasties, there is no one who is prosperous here".
But in the later period, he suddenly indulged in lust, not only lacked the skills to govern the country, but also had no way to employ people, and even connived at the queen's interference in politics, reused servants and eunuchs, and expropriated tyranny but spared money, so that the people were poor, the feudal towns were resentful, and the soldiers were separated.
With such a complex and contradictory character like this, I don't know what kind of story will there be in Chunting's mouth?
And contrary to what I thought, after hearing the name of the so-called No. 1 Fierce General and Li Cunmiao, Shen Lang's eyes couldn't help but glow, and he looked at Chunting and asked impatiently.
"Brother Ting, who is this Li Cunxiao, does this person have anything to do with my ancestor Li Cunxiao? Didn't they all say that my ancestor was the first general of the five generations, how did you become Li Cunqiao in your mouth? ”
"Li Cunmiao, Li Cunxiao, although the names of the two are extremely close, they are not half related to each other."
At such a moment of popularizing knowledge, Chun Ting naturally did not have the slightest interest, so Ling Xuan pulled Shen Lang aside and explained to him the relationship between the two.
"However, although there is no blood relationship between the two, there is indeed a connection between the two, because Li Cunxiao is the son of Li Keyong, the king of Jin, and Li Cunxiao is the righteous son of Li Keyong, the king of Jin."
"As for the so-called first fierce general of the five generations, it is not exclusive to Li Cunxiao, and later generations generally believe that if it comes to single bravery, Li Cunxiao can indeed dominate in the five generations, but if it comes to leading troops to fight and marching and arranging, then Li Cunxiao is the first in the world."
"I see."
Ling Xuan's simple and easy-to-understand explanation easily made Shen Lang figure out what was going on, and after a brief combing, Shen Lang said confidently.
"Master, do you mean that personal force, the master and ancestor are unparalleled in the world, and the method of leading troops to fight and battle formations, this Li Cunqiao is invincible in the world?"
Hearing Shen Lang's understanding, Ling Xuan nodded, and it was not difficult to see his satisfaction in his expression.
"Everyone already knows that the so-called Li Cunxiao is the pseudonym used by the leader at the beginning, and the leader ended the uprising of the Yellow Nest in this capacity, and after Li Keyong finished casting the underground palace for him to store the statue, he retired and died in seclusion."
Seeing that Shen Lang had no more doubts, Chun Ting continued to speak, with a faint hint of admiration in his words.
"This Li Cunmiao is not a simple character, although the history books record that he is Li Keyong's own son, but in fact it is not the case, Li Ke is an ordinary man, how can it be possible to give birth to a character like Li Cunmiao?"
The meaning of Chunting's words was extremely obvious, but I was still worried that I would misunderstand his words, so I patiently asked him carefully.
"Chunting, do you mean that this Li Cunmiao, like Li Cunxiao, is not very human, but someone has a pseudonym?"
"People in the world often say that there is no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the same is true of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, during this period, the world is full of smoke and chaos, since Li Cunmiao can be recognized as the first fierce general in this period, it is enough to prove how extraordinary this person is."
Chunting nodded at me, then looked at Juekong, as if he didn't want to say too much about it.
"As for the true identity of this person, you might as well ask Juekong, he should know much more about Li Cunqiao than I do."
