Chapter 290: Sang Weihan
Sang Weihan looked at Li Fengyun seriously, and said slowly: "As a military general, what is the most important thing, General Li, do you know?"
Li Fengyun was stunned for a moment and replied: "Naturally, he is brave and good at fighting!"
"That's not right!" Sang Weihan shook his head and said, "China has a population of hundreds of millions, and there has never been a shortage of brave and good generals, but there is a lack of good generals who are selfless and loyal to the saints. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Li Fengyun was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: "Didn't the Shi family also rely on their fists to get bigger, and now they have seized the throne, but they started to say this, why did they go in the first place?"
Sang Weihan sighed: "Born in troubled times, etiquette and music collapsed, you were born in the wilderness, and you have received few teachings from Lu Guogong, so it is not strange that the old man does not understand these truths." Who in the world is selfless, and how many loyal ministers and good generals are there who are loyal to the king and serve the country?
General Li, have you ever thought that I was in the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, and dominated the world, but why is it that today, I have been forced into a desperate situation by a mere Khitan?
Li Fengyun bowed his head and was silent.
If it weren't for Shi Jingjiao, for his own selfish interests, he betrayed the country to seek glory and ceded the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun to the Khitans, so that the land of Hebei would no longer have any natural dangers to defend, and the vast world would have been opened to the Khitans, and the Khitans would have come and gone as they said, how could the situation have become so cramped?
However, in this case, it is okay to talk to the crazy monk, Bai Futong and others, and it is okay to talk to Yan Wushuang, Wild Fox Zen, and Drunken Daoist, but he does not say it to Sang Weihan, unless Li Fengyun does not plan to lead his troops to fight again, and just wants to be a hero who has fallen into the rivers and lakes like Yan Wushuang.
You must know that they are as strong as crazy monks, Bai Futong and others, and don't they have to rely on Li Fengyun in order to fulfill their long-cherished wish to serve the country and protect the people?
Seeing people talking about people and talking about ghosts has always been Li Fengyun's strong point, Li Fengyun's eyes widened, and he pretended to be surprised: "What is the reason?"
"Woe to the warriors!" Sang Weihan sighed.
"The scourge of the martial arts, Lord Sang, why do you say this?" Li Fengyun was greatly surprised.
Li Fengyun heard this statement for the first time, and it is no wonder that the people he came into contact with were either heroes in the rivers and lakes, or generals in the army, and they didn't get along with Feng Dao and Kuzhu Weng for a few days, so how do you know what these people think about the current situation.
"During the Tang Tianbao period, Tang Xuanzong neglected his government, and Yang Guozhong abused power, which led to the Anshi Rebellion, and the Tang Dynasty was prosperous, which went into decline. After quelling the Anshi Rebellion, military power gradually fell into the hands of military generals. After the Huangchao Rebellion, this situation became even more intense, and the feudal towns in various places were divided, and the imperial court was uncontrollable and powerless. β
The big turban is like this, I like to adjust the book bag for a few words, Sang Weihan's words, some Li Fengyun knows, and some Li Fengyun doesn't know at all, such as the Huangchao Rebellion, Li Fengyun knows, but what "During the Tang Tianbao period, Tang Xuanzong neglected the government, Yang Guozhong abused power, which led to the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty was prosperous, and it went into decline", what to say, Li Fengyun didn't know at all.
"In the last years of the Tang Dynasty, after Zhu Wen usurped the throne, the thin veil that was originally on the face of the warrior was completely torn. The princes who were divided from all over the country suddenly found that they could still do this.
In the eyes of the martial artists, the true son of heaven suddenly fell from the altar, and it turned out that as long as the strength in his hands was strong enough, anyone could be the emperor. In this case, how many people in the world are willing to be Guo Ziyi?
In this case, the princes called themselves kings and emperors, and the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty were torn apart. So in the past few decades, there have been Southern Wu, Nanping, Southern Chu, Qianshu, Southern Han, Wuyue, and Fujian. β
Sang Weihan dipped his tea and casually drew a picture of the situation on the table.
"Why is there no Nantang?" Li Fengyun asked a little strangely. He has been to Nantang several times, and he can be said to be very familiar with Nantang.
Sang Weihan said with a smile: "The Southern Tang Dynasty is the Southern Wu in the past, it is a later thing, and the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty is not surnamed Li, but surnamed Xu, and falsely claimed to be a descendant of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, and changed his surname to Li." The founding lord of the country was called Xu Zhihe, who was once an important general and minister of Southern Wu, and later usurped the throne and established himself as the emperor, and Southern Wu became Southern Tang.
In fact, these separatist regimes are not stable, and what is gained by force will also be lost by force.
The princes who split off at the beginning are now several gone. Southern Wu was one of them, which was replaced by Southern Tang. Nanping and Former Shu were destroyed by Zhuangzong Li Cunqiao of the Later Tang Dynasty, but in the last years of the Later Tang Dynasty, Meng Zhixiang (Note 1) once again seized Shu and re-established the Shu State, which was called Later Shu.
Now the Southern Tang Dynasty took advantage of the Khitan to provoke the war again and launched an offensive against the southern Fujian State, and it is estimated that it is only afraid that it will be lost. The Southern Tang Dynasty was quite ambitious, secretly colluded with the Khitan, and also looked at Southern Chu, and the Fujian State was destroyed, and I am afraid that Southern Chu would not be able to survive for a few years.
In order to protect himself, Wu Yue has always been friendly with the Central Plains court. Nantang is afraid of angering my Great Jin, and it is unlikely that he will make a big move against Wu Yue for the time being. β
Li Fengyun was stunned, the form of this world, after Sang Weihan's explanation, he had a general impression. Although he had heard others talk about it before, he had not said it as clearly as Sang Weihan.
"Doesn't that mean that now in addition to the Khitan and the Ben Dynasty in the north, there are also Southern Tang, Wu Yue, Later Han and the dying Min State and the Southern Chu that is still breathing?"
Sang Weihan nodded: "The biggest threat to my Great Jin in the south is the Southern Tang. However, although the Southern Tang Dynasty is prosperous and rich, it is difficult to produce male soldiers, and no matter how weak the Central Plains is, the Southern Tang Dynasty is not the opponent of my Great Jin. As long as I slow down, it will only be a matter of time before I clean up Nantang. β
Li Fengyun said secretly in his heart: "Looking at the current situation, there are many contradictions within the Central Plains, and there may be when someone will pull the flag and rebel, and if you want to slow down, God knows when." β
Sang Weihan said: "However, there is Khitan in the north and Southern Tang in the south, and it is not an easy thing for me to slow down in the Great Jin."
Originally, this victory in Yangcheng was an opportunity, and it was not impossible to seize this opportunity to severely damage the Khitan muscles and bones, and even kill the thief chief Yelu Deguang.
If Yelu Deguang can really be killed, the Khitan country will definitely be in chaos, and take advantage of the opportunity of the big victory to take back the sixteen states of Yanyun. At that time, there was Xiongguan in the north to resist the Khitan, and my Great Jin Dynasty was able to let go of the small countries of Southern Tang and Houshu and unify the United States.
It's a pity that General Du was too conservative and sought stability, and let the thief chief return to the north calmly, so that I missed this great opportunity. β
Speaking of this, Sang Weihan let out a long sigh, and there was a faint worry on his face.
Li Fengyun knew what Sang Weihan was worried about, and even he could see it, there was no reason why the old fox in front of him couldn't see it. Sang Weihan is also a figure who has experienced strong winds and waves, and Gongsun Wuwu spoke highly of him at the beginning.
