When it comes to the most prosperous ancient capital in ancient China, either Chang'an or Beijing, Jinling and Luoyang are also full of flowers, but in fact, the most prosperous capital is Bianliang. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But as the capital, the geographical conditions of Bianliang are less than ideal. It has no risk to rely on, unlike Chang'an, which has the Yellow River and the Qinling Mountains as a natural barrier, and even Luoyang, which has Hangu in the west and Tiger Prison in the east.

Kaifeng is also known as the Great Liang, Bianliang, Dongdu, Tokyo, Bianjing, the Wei State during the Warring States Period, also known as the Liang State, the Later Liang, the Later Jin, the Later Han, the Later Zhou and the Northern Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty during the Five Dynasties period have successively established the capital in Kaifeng, so it is called the "Ancient Capital of the Seven Dynasties".

Kaifeng by virtue of the rivers and lakes, mild climate, convenient transportation conditions, a group of prosperous, its city wall is grand, the culture is splendid, the ancients had "Qishu Mingxia Wufeng Tower, Yimen since ancient times the imperial state" verse.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, Kaifeng, as the capital city of Tokyo, was the political, economic, military, scientific and technological and cultural center of China, and it was also the most prosperous metropolis in the world at that time. Its grand city wall is divided into an outer city, an inner city, an imperial city, a triple city wall, and three moats. The traffic in the city is compatible with land and water, and the Bianhe River is unimpeded. In terms of layout, the closed fang system was broken, and it was replaced by a street open to commercial and residential buildings, and the integration of the square and the market was implemented, and the citizen class was expanded, so that its population reached one million.

Zhao Kuangyin realized that there was no basis to defend the risk, and more than once had the idea of moving the capital, he wanted to move to Luoyang first, and then to Chang'an. But Zhao Guangyi disagreed, and retorted: "An Tianxia is in virtue but not in danger, Qin is in Guanzhong, harsh and abused the people, and died in the second generation." This sentence made Zhao Kuangyin speechless on the spot, and afterwards he said to the left and right: "The words of the King of Jin are good, but within a hundred years, the people of the world are strong!" ”

As a result, the proposal to move the capital was shelved. Later, in order to defend the capital, the Song Dynasty had to focus on building a forbidden army with strong combat effectiveness, which was concentrated in Gyeonggi and key places, and the huge military expenditure brought unbearable burdens to the people.

On this day, Gu Xiao walked along the Bianhe River and entered the city at the Tongjin Gate of the new city.

After paying the city gate tax, Gu Xiao officially entered Bianliang City. Look at the endless bustling streets on both sides. Countless shops are full of customers and shops. Seventy-two stores in Kaifeng are also flybridge railings, which are connected by light and dark. Beaded curtains are embroidered, lamps and candles are flickering, and hundreds of little girls sit in the main corridor, waiting for drinkers to be greeted. At night, Kaifeng is different from the one hundred and eight squares of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. But it's open day and night. In the streets and alleys and in the teahouses, miscellaneous plays, cappella singing, puppetry, storytelling, acrobatics, shadow puppetry, sumo wrestling, and various art forms in the tile city began to sprout.

It's a prosperous scene, but who can know that in just a few decades, the prosperity of Bianliang City will be completely destroyed by the barbarians! Looking at everything in front of him, Gu Xiao sighed in his heart.

To be honest, in his opinion, Jingkang's shame is not much worse than that of Wuhu Chaohua.

Who would have imagined that after the Jin soldiers came to the city, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, the two precious emperors. The ridiculous father and son are not thinking about how to defeat the Jin soldiers outside the city, but how to find ways to negotiate peace with the Jin soldiers. In fact, this is also a deformed psychology that the Zhao Song Dynasty has cultivated since Zhao Kuangyin.

In the eyes of this group of idiots, generals who can fight will always be more disgusting to them than foreign criminals. Many people say that the victory rate of the Zhao and Song dynasties against the war is higher than that of the Han and Tang dynasties, but in the Han and Tang dynasties, which emperor dared to send the so-called "New Year's coin" to foreign countries at every turn?

What's more, during the Han and Tang dynasties, the Han people have always lived with great dignity. Where is it like two songs. Pay compensation to foreign invaders at every turn? That kind of victory, it's simply an insult!

In fact, Gu Xiao has always believed that the Zhao and Song dynasties are the most poisonous dynasty in the Central Plains. It even surpassed "I Daqing". You must know that before the Song Dynasty, the Central Plains Dynasty always attached equal importance to civil and military affairs, and even emphasized military and light literature.

Therefore, during that period, there had never been a land sinking in the land of Shenzhou. Even if there are five nonsense flowers. But the Han people still firmly held on to half of the south.

However, it is precisely because the Zhao Kuangyin brothers adopted the so-called strategy of controlling the military with literature in order to protect the stolen country of the two brothers, and the suppressed generals have no place at all. Many generals are not afraid of losing the battle by themselves, but only of winning the battle by themselves.

Because if you lose the battle, you can still spend money to save your life, but if you win the battle, let the bullshit civil officials in the court pay for their merits, most of them will have to go to prison!

In the end of the two Song dynasties, the Zhao and Song dynasties never lacked generals who could fight, and the Northern Song Dynasty had the famous Hujia generals, Yang generals, Di Qing, the Taoist of the planters, and the middle of the masters; In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were Yue Jiajun, Han Shizhong, Meng Gong, Lu Wende and others, all of whom were famous generals.

It's just that it is precisely because of the existence of the policy of using literature to control the military that these people cannot display their abilities, and finally end up with a cliff and a mountain death!

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, it was also because of the policy of using literature to control the military that the Ming Dynasty finally perished at the hands of the Jurchens!

In Gu Xiao's view, all of this, the land of Shenzhou has sunk twice, and in the final analysis, the biggest sinners are all the Zhao Song Dynasty and the Zhao Kuangyin brothers. Mo said that he is no longer interested in messing around in officialdom, in fact, if it weren't for the fact that the emperor was tired of being the emperor, he wouldn't mind rebelling and becoming the emperor!

Thinking about it a thousand times, although Gu Xiao despised the Zhao Song Dynasty in his heart, he was silent on his face.

He followed the flow of people and walked towards the most prosperous place in front of him.

Now that the season is already early spring, Gu Xiao has set off for the south since he promised Li Canghai that day to help her find Jintai and compete with Jintai's apprentices, and after staying in the valley for a month.

The valley is full of spring all year round, and due to its unique topography, it is very mild all year round, and there is no major meteorological change. After Gu Xiao left the valley, he found that it was now the New Year. He went all the way south, and as he walked, he also searched for the whereabouts of Jintai on the rivers and lakes.

It's just that on the rivers and lakes, he can be regarded as visiting a lot of elderly martial arts people, but no one knows the whereabouts of Jintai, and not many people have even heard of this name.

Therefore, after never finding the whereabouts of Jintai on the rivers and lakes, Gu Xiao put all his hopes in Bianliang City. Because if he remembers correctly, Jintai's apprentice, Zhou Dong and Zhou Ruhai, who were famous in later generations, had stayed in Bianliang City for a long time, and perhaps through him, he could find out Jintai's whereabouts.

After wandering around Bianliang City for a long time, feeling a little hungry in his stomach, Gu Xiao turned around and walked into a still prosperous restaurant.

"Little Er, come with a pound of rice, five or six specialty side dishes." After Gu Xiao entered the door, he found a table and sat down, and greeted loudly.

"Yes, guest officer, wait a minute." A clever shopkeeper agreed, and then opened up.

At this time, it was the time of dinner, and after Gu Xiao entered the door, he saw that the restaurant was full of bustling guests, and there were several people with knives and swords, who were talking about some things on the rivers and lakes very vulgarly. Obviously, they can be regarded as people in the rivers and lakes.

Places like restaurants and inns have always been well-informed places.

Gu Xiao didn't wait long, and the shopkeeper brought his food.

"Little Er, wait, I'll ask you something." Gu Xiao threw Xiao Er a piece of broken silver and said.

Xiao Er took the broken silver and immediately said enthusiastically: "Guest officer, you might as well ask if you have anything, the villain must tell you everything he knows." ”

Gu Xiao asked while picking up the rice: "Xiao Er, let me ask you, have you ever heard of a person named Zhou Dong?" ”

When Xiao Er heard Zhou Dong's name, he immediately said enthusiastically: "Zhou Tong Zhou Jiaotou, of course this villain has heard of it, he is the head of the 800,000 forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is said that even the emperor has heard of his prestige." ”

Gu Xiao was overjoyed and asked, "Do you know where he lives?" ”

Xiao Er said: "This villain also knows that he lives in ......"

"Okay, you go down!" After Gu Xiao learned the news that he was interested in, he let Xiao Er go down.

Yue Fei's father-in-law and master, and the mentor of Lu Junyi, the No. 1 martial artist in Liangshan, I really want to see your skills! A ray of essence light flashed in Gu Xiao's eyes, and the Qing Ying Sword he had placed on the table had already begun to buzz, as if it couldn't wait! (To be continued.) )
