Chapter 256: Empire Twins, Wei Qing ...... (Ask for subscription)

Li Guang is difficult to seal.

It's really hard to seal.

When Chen Fan said that Li Guang finally drew his sword and killed himself in order not to be insulted by those historians...... Like Chen Fan, all the fans sighed incomparably.

"I now understand why Li Guang is difficult to seal."

"Well, when I was young, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing didn't like to fight, and they always took defense as the mainstay, although Li Guang was awesome, it was useless. But when he met Emperor Wu, who liked to fight, Li Guang was old on the one hand, and on the other hand, he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of strategic adjustments. ”

What's even more depressing is that when he finally had the opportunity to fight Shan Yu, he got lost...... Is this providential? ”

Many people thought about what Li Guang said at the end, but they didn't know what to say all of a sudden.

Sometimes.

Such is the fate of man.

It's not that you have talent, you have the ability, you can get a good reuse.

It's just that.

Just as everyone sighed, many fans said: "No, Brother Fan." ”

"What's wrong?"

"The general you just mentioned, Li Guang is indeed very capable, but his fate is too bad. It's okay to let him defend the city, but let him take the initiative to fight, then there is not much chance of winning. In this case, who brought down this part of the Western Regions? ”

"Hehe, I have to mention another general here, Wei Qing."

Yes.

If Li Guang did not encounter the right opportunity.

So.

Wei Qing is a person who is good at seizing opportunities.

When the opportunity came to him, he seized it.

not only grasped it, but also took this opportunity to create his legend.

"Wei Qing, is that the general Wei Qing?"

"It's him."

"This Wei Qing is much younger than Li Guang, and it is precisely because of his existence that the Han Dynasty can expand its territory again and again."

"Good boy, it's really a general. Brother Fan, hurry up, we have to listen to Wei Qing. ”

Li Guang's story is legendary.

But there are some tragedies.

At this time, when it came to this general who opened up territory and expanded the territory for the Han Dynasty, everyone was already looking forward to it.

"However, when it comes to Wei Qing, I must talk about Wei Qing's sister, Wei Zifu."

"Wei Zifu?"

"Yes."

Chen Fan nodded.

"Who is Wei Zifu?"

"You may not be familiar with Wei Zifu, but she is the second empress of the Han Wu Emperor period."

"Queen Si?"

"It's her."

The world's record of Wei Zifu is not particularly detailed.

As for the reason.

lies in the identity of Wei Zifu.

After thinking about it, Chen Fan said: "Wei Zifu's mother is called Wei Yuan, this Wei Yuan is the meaning of the old lady of the Wei family, as for who Wei Yuan's husband is, this is not very clear. Wei Yuan gave birth to a total of many children, namely Wei Qing, Wei Zifu, and Wei Shao'er...... Wait a minute. Because of the low status of Wei Yuan, and the father doesn't know who it is, the status of the children born is even lower. ”

When Wei Zifu was young, he was sent to Pingyang Hou to learn singing and dancing, and later became Pingyang Hou's singer. In the second year of the founding of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, that is, in 139 BC, Liu Che went to worship his ancestors, and when he came back, he went to visit his eldest sister Princess Pingyang. Because Princess Pingyang knew that Liu Che had been married for many years, but had no children, Princess Pingyang found some children from good families and wanted to dedicate them to Liu Che. ”

But after Princess Pingyang found these children of good families, Liu Che didn't take a fancy to any of them. At this time, the singers of the Hou Mansion sang in the hall, and Wei Zifu was among them, and Emperor Wu took a fancy to Wei Zifu at a glance. Then, Emperor Wu got up to change his clothes, and Wei Zifu went to wait, and got the first luck in Shangyi's Xuan car. Emperor Wu was very happy when he returned to the banquet and gave Princess Pingyang a golden daughter. Princess Pingyang therefore asked her husband to be sent to the palace, and Emperor Wu readily agreed. When parting and getting into the car, Princess Pingyang kissed Wei Zifu's back and said, let's go, eat well in the palace, work hard, if you are rich in the future, don't forget my recommendation. ”

Wei Zifu: This is just the beginning of the lecture.

It's just that when it comes to Xuanche, a group of fans keep asking with their brains open: "Brother Fan, Brother Fan, what does Xuanche mean at the beginning." ”

"I'm going to ......"

Chen Fan burst into tears: "You think for yourself, I don't know." ”

"Did you mean the car shock?"

"Don't be so nasty, okay."

Chen Fan raised his middle finger towards everyone.

Then he said: "It's just that although Wei Zifu was lucky, Wei Zifu who received the palace was not fortunate again for a year." In the second year, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty chose to release the elderly and frail palace people in the palace from the palace, and Wei Zifu saw the Son of Heaven and cried and begged Emperor Wu to release her from the palace and go home. Emperor Wu took pity on Wei Zifu and once again blessed her, and Wei Zifu became pregnant because of this. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also favored her day by day. ”

It's just that Wei Zifu was favored, but it caused Queen Chen's jealousy. Because since entering the palace, Queen Chen has not given birth. Empress Chen, who couldn't ask for a son, used the magic of witchcraft to curse Wei Zifu and didn't want to be discovered. In the end, Empress Chen was deposed. The following year, Wei Zifu gave birth to Liu Che's first prince. Liu Che was very happy, and in the spring of the first year of Yuanshuo, he officially canonized Wei Zifu as the empress, that is, Empress Si. ”

Wei Zifu's story is slightly told.

Everyone also understood why Wei Lifu didn't have much historical information related to her.

Even if there is.

is also some of the content after becoming a queen.

In fact.

It is precisely because Wei Zifu came from a humble background that he didn't have to write at all before.

Even if it was written, it would add scandal to Wei Zifu.

Rather than that, it's better not to write.

"Brother Fan, in other words, Wei Qing is Wei Zifu's younger brother?"

"Yes."

Chen Fan nodded: "Wei Qing is Wei Zifu's younger brother, however, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu are only the younger brothers of the same mother, and they are not the same father." ”

"Who is Wei Qing's father?"

"Wei Qing's father is called Zheng Ji."

"Why is it Zheng Ji?"

"Don't ask so much about adult matters."

Chen Fan rolled his eyes, but still explained: "It turned out that when Wei Yuan was working in the Hou family in Pingyang, she had an affair with a person named Zheng Ji, and then gave birth to Wei Qing. In other words, Wei Qing is actually an illegitimate child. But because Wei Yuan's status is very low, she can't support so many children at all, so Wei Qing when she was a child was sent to her biological father Zheng Ji. ”

But Zheng Ji doesn't attach much importance to Wei Qing, and some of Zheng Ji's sons don't regard Wei Qing as their brother at all. Even, not only did he not regard him as a brother, but he also called Wei Qing as a slave. When Wei Qingqing was a little older, Wei Qing returned to his mother Wei Yuan's side. But at this time, Wei Zifu had not yet been favored by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so the status of everyone in the Wei family was very low at this time. For this reason, Wei Qing became the riding slave of Princess Pingyang. ”

It wasn't until Wei Zifu was fortunate by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and gave birth to a child to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that Wei Qing's identity changed. Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty favored Wei Zifu very much, Emperor Wuhan also promoted Wei Qing and appointed him as the Taizhong doctor. Although Wei Qing entered the court through the relationship of his sister Wei Zifu. But Wei Qing is very talented, and in the 10 years he served as a doctor in Taizhong, Wei Qing was deeply trusted by Emperor Wu. ”

Historically, the power of a foreign relative has not ended well for the entire imperial court.

But.

There are exceptions.

For example, Wei Qing.

Wei Qing is a relative.

But Wei Qing knows this very well, and in the ten years since he was appointed as a doctor in Taizhong, Wei Qing has been very low-key.

"After the rule of Wenjing, the strength of the entire Han Dynasty has been greatly improved. After Zhang Qian returned from his mission to the Western Regions, he suddenly opened the horizons of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He no longer wanted to follow the previous defensive strategy of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, and he began to want to take the initiative to attack the Xiongnu. In 130 BC, the Xiongnu invaded Shanggu. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty personally stepped into the army, divided the four armies, and prepared to attack the Xiongnu. Among them, Wei Qing was appointed as the general of the chariot cavalry. Together with Wei Qing, there are also Li Guang, Gongsun He, and Gongsun Ao. Each of these four roads led 10,000 light cavalry. As a result, Gongsun He returned in vain. Gongsun Ao and Li Guang were defeated. Especially Li Guang, the whole army was directly annihilated, and even Li Guang was caught and finally fled. But in this battle, Wei Qing returned with a big victory. ”

"This battle is also called the Battle of Dragon City. Although the other three roads did not make much contribution to the battle of Dragon City, and even the two roads were defeated very badly, it was not cost-effective overall. But the battle of Wei Qing was the first victory over the Xiongnu since the beginning of the Han Dynasty. In recognition of Wei Qing's first victory, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty named Wei Qing the Marquis of Guannei in the Battle of Longcheng. So far, Wei Qing has become famous. ”

Compare it with Li Guang.

If you want to talk about luck, Wei Qing is really good.

Li Guang has never been a marquis in his life.

And Wei Qing was a marquis in World War I.

Arguably.

Wei Qing was crowned the marquis in the first battle, which immediately stimulated everyone.

"The First World War is too awesome."

"No way, on the one hand, the ability is strong, and on the other hand, the luck is too good."

"Well, this is the first victory of the Han Dynasty over the Xiongnu, not to mention a big victory, even a small victory is extremely exciting for the Han Dynasty."

It's like playing football.

When the national football team encounters Japanese and South Korean football, it is normal not to win, and it is very normal to lose.

But if you win......

His meow can be said to be celebrated by the whole world, an incredible existence.

"In fact, Wang Changling wrote but made Longcheng Fei general, and did not teach Hu Ma to Yinshan...... The Dragon City Flying General here refers to Li Guang on the one hand, and Wei Qing on the other hand. In other words, in this poem, Wei Qing and Li Guang are combined. ”

As for why this is said.

Because of the Battle of Longcheng, Li Guang's underwear is gone, and if you talk about Li Guang's military exploits when it comes to Longcheng, then there is really nothing to say.

But even so.

Wei Qing is young after all, even if he won his first victory in the Battle of Dragon City, his reputation is still not as good as that of the flying general Li Guang.

Therefore, Wang Changling's poem should refer to Wei Qing and Li Guang, not just Li Guang alone.

"But if Wei Qing only has the record of being a marquis in one battle, then he is not Wei Qing."

Chen Fan continued: "In the second year of Yuan Shuo, the Xiongnu invaded Shanggu and Yuyang, first broke through Liaoxi, killed Liaoxi Taishou, and then defeated Han Anguo, the defender of Yuyang, plundering more than 2,000 people. Emperor Wu sent Wei Qing to lead a large army to attack Henan, where the Xiongnu were entrenched, and adopted the tactic of "roundabout flank attack", went west to the rear of the Xiongnu army, quickly captured Gaoque, and cut off the connection between the Xiongnu Aries King and Lou Fu King and Shan Yu Wang who were stationed in Henan.

Then, Wei Qing led the elite cavalry and the flying soldiers to the south, entering the west of Longxian, forming a siege of the Aries King and the Loufu King. The Han army captured thousands of Xiongnu alive, captured millions of livestock, and took control of the Hetao region. In view of the fertile water and grass in this area and the dangerous situation, Emperor Wu built Shuofang City here, set up Shuofang County and Wuyuan County, migrated 100,000 people from the interior to settle in the two places, and repaired the border fortresses and fortifications along the river built by Meng Tian in the Qin period. The merits of this battle are too great, not only Wei Qing was once again made a marquis, but also Wei Qing's subordinates, Su Jian and Zhang Cigong, were also named Marquis of Pingling and Marquis of Antou. ”

It's just that the fans here are a little puzzled: "Brother Fan, is this battle really so great?" ”

In the First World War, three people were made marquises, which was simply unprecedented during the Han Dynasty.

Then you have to think about Li Guang again, then you will be even more depressed.

Li Guang will not be able to obtain the title of marquis for the rest of his life.

Outcome.

Now look at Nima.

Wei Qing in the first war and the first war were not to say that he was the marquis, and he fought again later, and he also brought a group of friends to the marquis.

This compares.

No wonder Li Guangwei was not made a marquis, it would become a pain in his life.

I can't afford to lose this man.

"Of course it's big."

Chen Fan nodded and said: "This kind of thing is not something that can be sealed if you want to be sealed, although Li Guang was very famous before, he also had a meritorious role in defending the city. But in the end, he didn't really kill many Huns, so even if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to give Li Guang a marquis, he couldn't seal it because he didn't have military merits. If it is forcibly blocked, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among other generals in the interior. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would not give Li Guang the title of marquis. However, the status of the Hetao area recovered by Wei Qing in this battle is too important and too important. ”

While explaining, Chen Fan took out the map: "The Hetao area is the area near the Yellow River, which is the area of the Yellow River. To the north of the Hetao area, that is the world of nomads, and to the south of the Hetao area, that is the agricultural civilization. In fact, the Han Dynasty's battle against the Xiongnu was the agrarian civilization versus the nomadic civilization. During the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty sent an army of 300,000 to drive the Xiongnu out of the Hetao. But later, the Qin Dynasty collapsed, the world was in turmoil, and the Hetao was occupied by the Huns. And once the Huns occupied this place, then he could completely rely on the Hetao to threaten the entire Chang'an. ”

Then, Chen Fan talked about the characteristics of the Hetao area.

The terrain is flat and crops are abundant.

Once this place was occupied, it was equivalent to setting up a granary for the Huns.

Originally, the Huns fought fiercely, and now they give him food?

Which court can stand it.

That is, if the Huns had not been driven out of the Hetao, then the Han Dynasty would have been in danger for a day. Because Chang'an is under the Hetao Plain, as long as the Huns rush, they can immediately hit Chang'an. Not only that, but if the Xiongnu had not been driven out of the Hetao, then it would have been impossible for the Han Dynasty to incorporate the Western Regions into its territory for a day. ”

The reason is simple.

Your own nest is unstable, can you still run to fight others?

The reason why Wei Qing's contribution to this battle is great, that is, with this battle, the Han Dynasty was no longer threatened by the Xiongnu. Not only was it not threatened by him, but on the contrary, the Han Dynasty could launch an attack on the Xiongnu at any time. It is precisely because of the great merit of this battle that not only Wei Qing was made a marquis again, but his subordinates were also marquised. Of course, there is also an element of his sister Wei Zifu in this. But most importantly, this battle was fought so beautifully. Even if Wei Qing has a sister who is active next to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in the face of such military exploits, others dare not say a word.

You have the ability, you can do it like Wei Qing.

"But it's not over yet."

Wei Qing's merits, for the entire Han Dynasty, there are basically few that can be compared.

The only one who can compare is his nephew.

Of course.

For Wei Qing's nephew, Chen Fan naturally won't talk about it now.

Now I'm still talking about Wei Qing.

It was precisely because Wei Qing recovered the Hetao region that three years later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took the initiative to launch an attack on the Xiongnu. Wei Qing led 30,000 cavalry and attacked here in Gaoque. Although the Xiongnu Youxian King knew that the Han Dynasty had launched a campaign against him, the Youxian King believed that it was impossible for the Han army to reach where they were. As for the reasons, I have already talked about them. As soon as you get out of Yumen Pass, as soon as you get out of the Hetao area, it is the vast grassland. And the Xiongnu were nomads, their military camps were not fixed and they would leave at any time. Even if the Han army can send troops, it may not be able to find them. Of course, before the Han Dynasty, the same was true of all dynasties. Even if it was the Qin Dynasty, after driving the Xiongnu out of the Hetao, they would not go north. If you continue north, you will not only not be able to win, but you will lose your way. Yes, why did Li Guang get lost...... It's because I'm so unfamiliar with it. ”

But this time, Emperor Wu of Han made up his mind, while Wei Qing adopted the method of using Hu to control Hu. He let the Hu people be his guide and rode all the way. When King Youxian was still asleep, Wei Qing had already killed with his troops. The panicked King Youxian took a concubine and left his troops and fled in panic. In this battle, the Han army beheaded more than 10,000 people, captured 15,000 prisoners, captured more than 10 Xiongnu kings, more than 160 other nobles, and millions of livestock, which was the first time in the history of the Han-Hungarian War that the Xiongnu army collapsed in the battle of the large corps. ”

When it came to this, all the fans were already boiling.

"The whole army of the Huns collapsed, fuck, this is too powerful."

"There are few times in history that the Han army has been able to win against the Xiongnu, and this time, even the Right Xian King was almost destroyed."

"This is the majestic style of the Han Dynasty, mighty."

To say force.

Among the previous dynasties, the Han Dynasty ranked second, so no one ranked first.

Although during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the various princes were also very powerful.

But this, in fact, did not really fight with the Huns.

In other words, they did not really defeat the Huns.

At most, it was to drive the Xiongnu out of the loop.

Then the Xiongnu fled, and the princes of the Warring States period could not catch up.

Not only can't catch up.

Instead.

Later, he was afraid that the Xiongnu would come again, and he also built a series of defensive measures such as the Great Wall in the Hetao area.

This can basically be said.

If you really want to fight, it will be difficult for the Han people to defeat the Xiongnu.

But now.

Wei Qing not only drove the Huns out of the Hetao area, but also went north to go one step further and annihilated the troops of King Youxian in one fell swoop.

This credit can be said to be eternal, and no Han people can do it since ancient times.

"So this battle is also the biggest commendation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

Chen Fan also nodded and said: "The surprise attack of Gaoque shocked the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he never thought that Wei Qing would be able to achieve such great feats. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty never thought that we Han people could still beat the Xiongnu to the point of urine. Of course, this battle also caused a sensation in the whole country. In the midst of the great joy, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made Wei Qing a general. And that's not all, because this one victory is so significant. For this reason, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also made Wei Qing's three sons also liehous. In addition, Gongsun Ao, Han Shuo, Gongsun He, Li Cai, Li Shuo, Zhao Buyu, Gongsun Rongnu, Li Fu, Li Xi, and Dou Ruyi, who fought with Wei Qing...... All of them were marquis!! ”
