Chapter 88: The city is full of golden armor

Facing the eye-catching red arrows on the light curtain map, the faces of the people in the Manna Hall were heavy for a while.

Although this is more than 200 years later, they still feel a sense of powerlessness when they see such a force that can be called a disease of scabies in the early days, rushing to escape again and again, and finally turning back and killing.

"These counterinsurgency envoys, who accept bribes to support their own dignity, should be killed!"

Li Shiyun's words were full of murderous energy, and at the same time, he also showed his attitude.

This kind of thing is too taboo, and Li Shiyun doesn't want to bury a nail in His Majesty's heart because of the behavior of these wine bags and rice bags in later generations.

At the same time, Li Shiyun muttered in his heart, this feeling is too strange.

I am worried that I will be affected by the chaotic party more than 200 years later, and I believe it is the first time in history.

Waving his hand to signal Li Shiyun to sit back, Li Shimin sighed, but he didn't quite understand:

"This Yellow Nest was originally defeated twice, why was it suddenly able to enter the land of Gyeonggi?"

In this regard, Wei Zheng sighed and said:

"Because this yellow nest wants to kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials."

"It's as simple as that?" Li Shimin asked rhetorically.

Wei Zheng paid a big salute to Li Shimin, and at the same time said:

"Your Majesty, do you know that there is still a Dou Wang Temple in Hebei?"

Li Shimin was silent, of course he remembered this opponent who "wanted to calm the people to determine the world".

Wei Zheng replied: "The ministers in Hebei have heard many people talking about their people, and the punishment is corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the people still remember their virtues. ”

Li Shimin was silent, and at this time, he remembered the statue of "water can carry a boat and overturn a boat" in Chang'an that never sleeps.

Huang Chao has this slogan in order to win the hearts of the people, but looking at it in another direction, I am afraid that there are countless people under Huang Chao who have been victimized by corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

A pain in his calf interrupted Li Shimin's reverie, and looking at the eldest grandson, Li Shimin realized that Wei Zheng was still kneeling on the ground.

So Li Shimin hurriedly helped him up:

"Xuancheng deserves to be my dressing mirror!"

[880 A.D., this year is crucial for Huang Chao.

After escaping by the second fraudulent bribe, Kexuanzhou was at the end of June.

In July, he crossed the Yangtze River to the north, and in September he went to Kesizhou; In October, Liankeshen Prefecture, Yingzhou, Songzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou.

At this time, in the territory of the Tang Empire, there was no one to stop Huang Chao, so he officially began to march towards Kyoto.

When autumn comes on September 8, I will kill a hundred flowers after the flowers bloom!

In mid-November, Huangchao conquered Luoyang, which belonged to Tokyo in the Tang Dynasty at this time, and there was also a set of imperial court teams left behind, and they greeted Huangchao under the leadership of Liu Yunzhang, who stayed in Tokyo.

Huang Chao did not stay too long in the bustling Luoyang, he seemed to know the truth of the speed of the soldiers, and after a short supply and rest, he set off to the west again.

On the first day of December, Huangchao marched into Tongguan, and in two days, Chang'an was already under Huangchao's troops.

On the third day of December, Huangchao led the army into Huazhou, which is now near Huashan, and the next day, the envoy of Xizong came to the Huangchao military camp and brought the conditions of Xizong:

Feng Huangchao is the envoy of the Tianping Army.

At this time, Huang Chao did not accept this appointment, but he did not embarrass the messenger and let him go, and the face of the sect who knew the news was like ashes.

On the fifth day of the twelfth month, after the end of the court meeting, Xizong took his four sons and several concubines, under the protection of 500 Shence troops led by the eunuch Tian Lingzi, from the back gate of the palace, Jinguangmen.

It can be said that fate played a humorous joke, in the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty, Sima Yue and Wang Yan faced the Xiongnu Liu and chose to leave Emperor Huai of Jin in the capital to wait for death, and ran away by themselves.

More than five hundred years later, it was the emperor's turn to sneak away.

Of course, it is impossible to hide the news of Xi Zong's escape for too long, this news has brought a wave of chaos, some people choose to flee, but more Shi clan gate lords choose to stop and watch.

In the evening of the same day, Zhang Zhifang, the general of Jin Wuwei, came to Bashang with hundreds of civil and military officials to greet their loyal Yellow King.

The heavenly incense array penetrates Chang'an, and the city is full of golden armor.

After arriving in Chang'an, Huang Chao began to plan to be called the emperor, and after asking the auspicious day, he stayed in the Hanyuan Palace, arrogated the throne of the emperor, the country name Daqi, and the founding year number was Jintong.

At that time, Huang Chao still had ambitions, such as making the soldiers proclaim:

The Yellow King is a living being, not like the Li family who is not sympathetic to your generation, but each has a home.

And the "Old Tang Book" also records the Huang Chao and the rebel army giving money and goods to the poor.

After Xizong escaped from Chang'an, he ordered all the soldiers and horses to recover the Beijing division, and the envoys who got the power and made a profit made a dead effort, and soon recovered Xianyang, crossed the Weishui, and Huangchao felt invincible and withdrew from Chang'an.

The things that followed were relatively simple, but for the people of Chang'an, it was one disaster after another.

After the officers and soldiers entered Chang'an, they began to loot money and children, and the scoundrels in the city also pretended to be soldiers to take advantage of the chaos to loot.

After Huang Chao detected this situation, he sent elite soldiers to sneak attack overnight, and almost everyone in the official army at this time was carrying goods, so it was defeated, and Chang'an City changed hands again.

Huang Chao, who entered the city again, was angry that the people of Chang'an welcomed Wang Shi, and connived at his subordinates to kill and wash the city, and Chang'an was full of blood.

For this ending, the verbal description is a little pale, so let's use "Qin Women's Yin" as the end. 】

"Maiko singers donate all their secrets, and babies and girls are all abandoned"

Li Shimin read the verses he saw, and his voice was rougher than ever, as if something was stuck in his throat.

But he didn't care, and continued to look at the poem that slowly glided on the light curtain, insisting on continuing to read it.

"There are Jurchen fairies in the west...... Pink balsam knife to death. ”

"There is a woman in the south who does not remember her surname...... The body is fragmented in Russia. ”

"The smoke shouted for help, and the corpses hanging on the beams were ashes."

In troubled times, it is always a woman who suffers first, Li Shimin thought to himself.

He always felt that his heart was like an iron stone before, and he had seen a lot of troubled times, but now he didn't see any images, but this poem was like a word of blood, hitting his heart.

These women who are ignorant of the world, although they have spanned three hundred years, are still the people of the Tang Dynasty and his people.

They have spent more than ten years in Datang under the protection of their father and brother at home, and they may also listen to their parents or grandfathers talk about the strong Tang Dynasty before going to bed, and imagine the day when Datang can regain the rule of officials and make everyone laugh.

But that day will never come, and their lives and fate, along with their father and brother, will come to an abrupt end on this day.

Who should be scolded? Who should I hate?

Li Shimin only felt that he was about to vomit blood, and there seemed to be some sweet taste in his throat.

"Huaxuan's embroidered hubs are all dissolved, and there is no half of the Jiadi Zhumen"

This sentence was pronounced in a strange voice, and Li Shimin even had a hint of happiness in his heart.

This is the Datang that your Shi clan gate valve wants? This is a big surname created by the minister?

I did not rely on the benefits of the Tang Dynasty, but we received the benefits of the people and entered the Zhumen.

The color of your Zhumen should be painted because of your stinky blood!

"The inner library is burned to splendid ashes, and the heavenly street is full of the bones of the minister!"

As soon as this sentence came out, Li Shimin felt a little empty in his heart.

The Tang Dynasty, which rose up from his army in Jinyang, drew an end to these fourteen words.

During the Zhenguan period, the treasury was exhausted, or for disaster relief or military expenses to fight against foreign races, and finally turned into a handful of black ashes when he died.

Countless heroes and heroes worked with him, or trampled on horseback, or reformed the system and corrected the government, but in the end, the wine bags and rice bags that used all kinds of means to go up were finally trampled into the dust.

Sitting on the couch, looking at the dome of the Manna Hall that he had seen many times, Li Shimin was silent.

"If Your Majesty is tired, go and rest first." This is the voice of the eldest grandson empress.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui nodded together and said:

"Your Majesty, the ministers will copy it, and it will not be too late for Your Majesty to read it later."

Shaking his head, Li Shimin said in a low voice:

"I'm still going to stand it."

Facing the suspicious eyes of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin wanted to smile reluctantly, but for the first time, he felt that the corners of his mouth were hooked so hard, and finally just shook his head and said:

"Looking at the troubled times of their generation, I only feel that the emperor is unreasonable, and the officials are greedy for ink, so they should die early."

"But now that I see the future generations of my Tang Zimin in trouble, I always want to eliminate some disasters and use more means."

"Even if this prosperous era can be extended for five years and ten years, will the peaceful time that these daughters' families can enjoy be longer?"

Empress Eldest Sun didn't speak, but just put Li Shimin's palm into her hands, so that it seemed to have the strength to pass over.

Thanksgiving, he closed his other hand and rubbed it, got up and went to the bookcase, he planned to directly transcribe this poem now, and then hang it in the Manna Hall as his own wake-up.

[As for the ending of Huangchao, it was relatively lackluster, and after the Emperor completely ceded his rights, it led to the rapid expansion of the feudal town, and finally opened the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

In the face of the serious Jiedu envoy, Huang Chao was not an opponent, and after being driven out of Chang'an again, he fled all the way east and was defeated, and finally left a record of cannibalism.

But in fact, looking back, with the talent of Huang Chao, he can still travel all over the world and enter Chang'an, which in itself can show how big the problem is in the late Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, the essence of feudal society is to eat people, although Huangchao is recorded in the history books to eat people, but the feudal era of the gate valve family has eaten the lives of the people.

Regarding the record of Huangchao's cannibalism, there is a subtle deviation between the "Old Tang Book" and the "New Tang Book".

In the "Old Tang Book" written by the Later Jin Dynasty, the description of the Huangchao rebel army in the early stage is mostly about fighting against the Tang army and conquering the city, and there are few atrocities.

It wasn't until Huang Chao took the initiative to withdraw from Chang'an for the first time that the "Old Tang Book" recorded that "thieves began to be cruel".

The "New Tang Dynasty Book" repaired by the people of the Song Dynasty is more interesting, and the Huangchao recorded is basically burning, killing and looting all the way from the beginning of the army.

And the record that Huang Chao began to rob soon after entering Chang'an for the first time is also from the "New Tang Dynasty Book".

What's even more interesting is that the sixteen states of Yanyun were ceded out by the Later Jin Dynasty, so the Song Dynasty's records of the Later Jin Dynasty have always been extremely derogatory.

At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, historians and ministers sharply commented on the last emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty, Shi Chonggui, saying that "the ugliness of the country since ancient times is not as bad as the emperor."

However, I don't know what everyone in the Song Dynasty will say when they see the shame of Jingkang. 】

Needless to say, the detailed cannibalism should not be said, one is that the scale is a bit large, and the other is that the record has been verified by many people and should be fabricated, and the person who wrote it knows neither soldiers nor farm work.
