Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Fall of the Beam
Born in troubled times, wolf smoke is everywhere, displaced, but there are many heroes.
During the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the princes became self-reliant, which was naturally regarded as a troubled era in China, so naturally there would be no shortage of famous generals who would remain in history during this period.
Li Cunxiao, who is known as "the king is not enough, and the general is not Li", Wang Yanzhang, the iron spear Wang Yanzhang, who is "the only one in the Jin Dynasty", Li Siyuan, who is "not under the city, and the thief is not even", Gao Siji, the white horse and silver spear, Ge Congzhou, the doppelganger, and Li Cunxian, who broke the cavalry with infantry, ......
It was with these famous generals that that made up that wonderful period.
And among these many famous generals, Li Cunqiao is undoubtedly the brightest star among them.
There is no doubt that during the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the strongest personal force must be Li Cunxiao, who is known as "hating the sky without a hand, hating the earth without a ring", and even Wang Yanzhang, who is known as the second iron gun in the world, can't go a few rounds under him.
And when it comes to the victory rate against the enemy, there is no doubt that the general with the highest victory rate is Li Keyong's other adopted son, Li Cunxian, who has experienced more than 150 battles in his life, never defeated, and even has the super god record of the infantry breaking the Khitan cavalry, and everyone at the time was amazed.
But if you look at it comprehensively, these two people can't afford to be called the first general of the five dynasties and ten countries.
Although his personal bravery is inferior to Li Cunxiao's, and his victory rate against the enemy is not as good as Li Cunxian's, but not to mention his personal bravery, regardless of the tactical level, after comprehensive consideration, when it comes to how to integrate the military ability of strategic deployment and tactical execution, Li Cunmiao is definitely the strongest military strategist in the Five Dynasties period.
According to legend, when Li Keyong was dying, he handed Li Cunqiao three arrows and told him that Zhu Wen was the enemy of the Jin Kingdom, Liu Rengong, the king of Yan, was established by himself, and Yelu Abaoji of Khitan was about to be a brother with him, but these three people betrayed Li Keyong and switched to Zhu Wen.
In his lifetime, Li Keyong failed to destroy the three thieves, so he died with hatred, so Li Keyong handed Li Cunmiao these three arrows and told Li Cunmiao to destroy these three enemies in the future to comfort his spirit in the sky.
Li Cunmiao enshrined these three arrows in the family temple, every time he went out to fight, he had to sacrifice to the young prison, invited the arrows out, put them in the bag, carried them into battle, and then sent them back to the temple after victory.
Although the legend may not be true, but this alone makes it not difficult to see the bravery of Li Cunqiao and his people in leading troops to fight.
And now, it is not difficult for us to hear from Chunting's words that this Li Cunqiao's identity seems to be extraordinary, far from being as simple as what we see in the history books.
However, it was clear that Chunting didn't seem to want to explain to us personally, but shifted the problem to Juekong, so everyone had to turn their eyes to Juekong, waiting for him to explain for us.
Seeing Chunting's reaction, Juekong's face was faintly helpless.
"Amitabha, why do you bother with the Spring Pavilion donor, since you already know it, why do you need a poor monk to explain it to you."
However, this is just a complaint, and Juekong naturally knows that no one can force what Chunting doesn't want to do, so after complaining, he turned pale and explained to us seriously.
"What the Spring Pavilion donor said is good, although the life of Li Keyong, the king of Jin, is far beyond ordinary people, but it is not the life of the Son of Heaven, in his life, there should not be such a brave child, and the reason why Li Cunqiao will show such an amazing military talent is indeed strange."
"Guan Shankui's head is kind-hearted, the reason why he chose to assist Li Ke to exterminate the Yellow Nest was because of Li Ke's special life, although this person's life is not enough to become the Son of Heaven, Long Deng's Ninth Five, but it is enough to bear the consequences of exterminating the Yellow Nest."
"And the later Li Cunmiao also came to Li Keyong's side for this reason, but unlike Guan Shan's leader, this Li Cunmiao did not let Li Keyong know his identity, but used the means of exchanging the tanuki for the prince."
The tanuki's means of exchanging the prince?
As we all know, only a dead person can keep a secret completely, and since this person has used the method of exchanging a tanuki for a prince, in order to prevent his identity from being leaked just in case, will he secretly kill the real Li Cunqiao?
And looking at our slowly frowning brows, Juekong suddenly understood what we were thinking, so he immediately explained to us.
"Of course, this person is also a kind-hearted person, naturally he will not kill innocents indiscriminately, the real Li Cunqiao has already been sent to a paradise away from the war, although he failed to conquer the world, but he can live a safe and smooth life, it may not be a good result."
Hearing this, our hanging hearts finally let go.
Juekong is right, only by being born in troubled times can we truly understand what peace is a blessing, and if the real Li Cunqiao can live his life safely and smoothly, it will not be a perfect result.
After all, it is better to be a peaceful dog than a troubled world.
At this point, the most curious thing we are about is that there is only one question left.
What is this so-called Li Cunmiao, who is sacred?
"Guan Shan exterminated Huang Chao and tried to maintain Li Tang's weak national ancestry, while Weak Water took the opportunity to subvert Li Tang in the name of Zhu Wen and opened the chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, although this has long been a conspiracy of Weak Water, but it is undeniable that it is mixed with the impact of the Netherworld Aura on Shenzhou."
Seeing our inquisitive eyes, Juekong no longer hesitated, and finally got to the point of the matter.
"In this regard, Emperor Xudu naturally will not sit on the sidelines and watch, although Emperor Xudu needs to suppress his cultivation at all times, but because his cultivation has already reached an unimaginable point, and even comes into contact with the mysteries of the heavenly machine, even if he does not use cultivation, he can feel the original context of things in the dark."
"Therefore, Emperor Xudu resolutely chose to be born, and chose Li Ke, who has a special personality, as the object of his attachment, and replaced the real Li Cunqiao with the way of exchanging the tanuki for the prince, the purpose of which is to destroy the back beam supported by weak water and restore the original context of things."
"In the end, Emperor Xudu succeeded in destroying Houliang as Li Cunxuan and ending the conspiracy of weak water, but because of Yama's proximity, this ghostly aura has never been truly contained, even if Emperor Xudu destroyed Houliang, but this special period still cannot really end."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened, and they were a little surprised for a while.
But on second thought, it seems to be a reasonable thing to do.
