4. Wen Tianxiang was the top scholar in Southern Song Dynasty. Song Rui, born in Wenshan, 1236, was born into a landlord family in Futian Village, Chunhua Township, Luling, Jiangxi Province (now Ji 'an South, Jiangxi Province). 18 years old, Wen Tianxiang won the first place in Luling Township School Examination.

He was praised by the examiner as "loyal to the monarch and patriotic as a stone", and was personally rated as the top scholar in 60 1 Jinshi by Emperor Li Zong. Four days later, his father died unfortunately, and Wen Tianxiang went home to mourn for three years.
Floating and sinking in the official ocean
Later, the Mongolian army attacked the Song Dynasty in two ways, and Meng Ge led the west road into Sichuan to attack Chengdu. Kublai Khan led the East Route Army, crossed the Yangtze River, and encircled Ezhou (now Wuchang) with another Mongolian army from Tanzhou (now Changsha) in northern Yunnan. Nanjing was shocked by the ruling and opposition parties. The eunuch Dong told him to avoid soldiers and move the capital to Siming (now Ningbo) so as to escape to the sea at any time. To this. As a scholar, Wen Tianxiang boldly wrote: "Your Majesty is the Lord of China, so you should protect China;" If you are the parents of the people, you should defend them. "Please cut dong to caress the people. Later, due to the death of Mongo, Kublai Khan wanted to go back to the north to compete for the position of Khan, and only let Jia Sidao, the right prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, secretly surrender to pay tribute and then withdraw his troops.
Instead, Jia Sidao lied to the imperial court: "All parties won a great victory" and was named as defending the country and monopolizing power. Then acceded to the throne, indulge in debauchery, Jia Sidao deceives his superiors and deludes his subordinates, which is beneficial to the country. Wen Tianxiang played hydrophobic ignored, only was sent to a sinecure.
After more than ten years, Wen Tianxiang intermittently served as the director of Ruizhou, Jiangxi and Shangshu Zuo Silang, or more than half a year. Later, he was dismissed for mocking Jia Sidao.
Seeing the minister's loyalty in the face of national disaster
After Kublai Khan proclaimed himself emperor, he changed his title to Yuan, and in A.D. 1274, he sent 200,000 troops to Lin 'an by land and water. The regime of the Southern Song Dynasty was in chaos and perished. The 4-year-old acceded to the throne as Emperor Gong. Queen Xie came to the DPRK and asked all localities to recruit soldiers to serve the king.
The following year, Wen Tianxiang, who was appointed as the magistrate of Ganzhou (now Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province), devoted all his resources to recruiting troops and organized 30,000 rebels within a few months, saying, "Justice is in me and I can do anything; With the confidence and courage to win by number, he began his military career. When the rebels arrived in Jizhou, Wen Tianxiang was appointed assistant minister of the Ministry of War and was ordered to stand by and stay in Longxing (now Nanchang, Jiangxi). After many twists and turns, he was admitted to Wei 'an. Soon he became the magistrate of Pingjiang (now Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province) and was ordered to help Changzhou. In Changzhou, the rebels fought hard, but the generals led by General Zhang Quan of Huai watched the fire from the other side first, and then ran away, resulting in the heroic sacrifice of all 500 rebel soldiers except four. In the winter of this year, Wen Tianxiang was ordered to rush to reinforce the chief customs of Lin 'an portal. Three days after leaving Pingjiang, he collapsed in Pingjiang. Before reaching the destination, Guan has fallen. I hurried back to Lin 'an, ready to fight to the death, only to see the civil and military officials of the Qing Dynasty abandon their posts and flee, leaving only six officials of the Wen class.
/kloc-in the first month of 0/276, Queen Xie insisted on surrendering. Yuan was appointed as the Prime Minister to go out of the city to discuss, and the Prime Minister Chen fled overnight. Wen Tianxiang was appointed as the right Prime Minister and Tang Dynasty envoy to make peace. In the negotiations, Wen Tianxiang was not afraid of the force of the Yuan Army, and publicly accused Bo Yan. He generously said that he wanted to resist Japan to the end, so he was detained and went to the north by boat. Wen Tianxiang went on a hunger strike at first, and then escaped from danger in Zhenjiang. Because the Yuan Army played a trick on me, it lied that Wen Tianxiang had fallen to the capital and returned to the south to earn cities and land for the Yuan Army. Wen Tianxiang was repeatedly suspected and displaced. He died for two months and went to Wenzhou. At this time, the court had surrendered, Emperor Gong was taken to Dadu (now Beijing), and seven people, including Lu Xiufu, acceded to the throne in the 30th year of Fu. Wen Tianxiang was called to Fuzhou as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, he commanded various armies, set up a government office in Nanjian Prefecture (now Nanping, Fujian Province), sent people to various places to recruit soldiers and raise salaries, and called on all places to arise and kill the enemy. In autumn, the Yuan army invaded Fujian, and Duanzong was forced to flee to the sea and drift in Guangdong by boat.
From 65438 to 0277, Wen Tianxiang led the troops to Longyan and Meizhou (Meixian, Guangdong) and advanced into Jiangxi. Defeated the Yuan Army in Du Fu (now in the south of Jiangxi), captured Xingguo, and recovered Ganzhou 10 and Jizhou 4 counties. People's hearts were greatly boosted, and all parts of Jiangxi responded in succession. The national anti-Yuan struggle resumed, and Wen Tianxiang's order reached the Jianghuai area, which was the most favorable situation since he insisted on anti-Yuan. The main force of the Yuan Army began to attack Xingguo State-owned enterprises in Wen Tianxiang. Wen Tianxiang was outnumbered and led the army to withdraw from the north. He was defeated by Luling and Hezhou (now Changting, Fujian) and suffered heavy losses. His wife and children were also taken away by the Yuan Army.
Be defeated and captured
1278 In the late spring, Duanzong died of illness. Lu Xiufu and others established a 6-year-old emperor, and the court moved to a tiny place on the sea more than 50 miles away from Xinhui County, Guangdong Province, and sealed Wen Tianxiang's letter. In winter, Wen Tianxiang led the troops to Chaoyang County, Chaozhou, hoping to recruit soldiers and find new opportunities by relying on the risks of mountains and seas. However, the Yuan army made a fierce advance on land and water and launched a fierce attack.
At the end of the year, Wen Tianxiang was suddenly attacked by the Yuan Army in Wupoling, Haifeng North. He was defeated and captured, and immediately committed suicide with borneol, but failed. Zhang Hongfan, who surrendered to Yuan, was rebuffed. Wen Tianxiang once wrote "Crossing the Ocean" and made it very clear: "Once hard work comes, the stars will fall in all directions. The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is floating, and life experiences are ups and downs. The beach of fear says fear, and there is a sigh in the ocean. Since ancient times, no one has died in life, leaving a glowing heart. "
Wen Tianxiang was forced to witness Lu Xiufu throw himself into the sea, and Zhang Shijie was swallowed up by the bad waves of the typhoon. The surviving small court of the Southern Song Dynasty perished. Zhang Hongfan, the general of the Yuan Dynasty, toasted Wen Tianxiang at the celebration banquet, saying, "The Song Dynasty is dead, and your loyalty and filial piety are over. If the prime minister can do things for the Yuan Dynasty, won't you become the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty? " Wen Tianxiang said; "The death of the country cannot be saved, and the death of the minister deserves it. Can you still be afraid of death and betray the motherland? "
Who can blame for this hatred?
On April 22nd, Wen Tianxiang was taken to Dadu, where he was "weathered the storm and lost his life". When passing by his hometown in Wen Tianxiang, he was afraid that some folks would rob the boat, so he locked his neck and feet in the boat. Wen Tianxiang fasted for eight days, because he heard that the ship was going to dock at Jiankang, which aroused the hope of escape and restored his diet. In terms of health, Wen Tianxiang, who was strictly isolated and imprisoned, wrote: "Chun Qing, a bronze sparrow, shed tears in autumn. Who can blame for this snow? " ? Open firm but gentle, bullfighting empty recognition Qi Jie ".
/kloc-at the beginning of 0/0, he was transferred to Wanli and sent to Dadu by Wen Tianxiang. He was taken to the "Huitong Pavilion" to receive the surrenders and placed in a noble room with delicious food and wine. The first person to surrender was Liu, who, together with Wen Tianxiang, was the top scholar and prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty. When Lin 'an was in danger, he abandoned his official position and fled. After being relegated to the Yuan Dynasty, he became the minister of rites in the Yuan Dynasty. Wen Tianxiang sharply reprimanded Liu as soon as he saw him, so Liu had to step down awkwardly. Then, Zhao Ji, the 9-year-old monarch of the Southern Song Dynasty, came again. Wen Tianxiang kept silent after repeatedly saying "Please go back to Shengjia".
Later, Ahema, the overbearing prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty, came and asked Wen Tianxiang, "Why didn't you kneel when you saw the prime minister?" Wen Tianxiang said, "Why did the Prime Minister of the Southern Dynasty kneel when he saw the Prime Minister of the Northern Dynasty?" When Ahema saw that Wen Tianxiang was mighty and unyielding, he sarcastically said, "Then why are you here?" Wen Tianxiang replied sternly: "If the Southern Dynasties had used me as prime minister earlier, northerners would not have reached the South, and South Renye Fang would not have come to the North." . Ama was speechless, looked around with a bully is always coward, and said; This man's life or death is up to me. Wen Tianxiang immediately interrupted him and roared, "People who have perished want to punish them. Not what you can say! " .
Occasionally, I have no conscience.
A month later, Wen Tianxiang was taken to the Privy Council, where he met Kyle Polo, the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty. Wen Tianxiang stood poised, and immediately an official shouted, "Get down on your knees!" Wen Tianxiang refused to kneel down, and Ba Luoling sent his officers to kneel down according to Wen Tianxiang. Despite the combination of a group of pawns, Wen Tianxiang sat down on the ground in despair after being dragged, and never gave in. The translator sent a message: "What do you have to say?" Wen Tianxiang replied: "I am loyal to the Song Dynasty, so I am today. Please deal with it quickly! " Kyle Poirot added, "You have lost the king (Evonne). Two kings were established successively. What is a loyal minister? " Wen Tianxiang replied: "The country is important and the monarch is light." Kyle Poirot asked again, "What have you achieved?" Wen Tianxiang replied: "Do your duty as a courtier for a day and reward your merits!" He said, "Now only one person has died, so please stop talking!" Kyle Poirot shouted, "If you die, I won't let you die. I want to lock you up! " Wen Tianxiang replied in awe: "I am not afraid to die for my country, but I am also afraid of being detained!"
The ruler of the Yuan Dynasty put him in an evil prison and tortured him for three years, which made him read the letters of his captured wife and daughter who worked as a maid in the Yuan Palace and made his demoted brother visit him in the prison. However, driven by all kinds of torture, inducements and affection, Wen Tianxiang was totally unmoved. He wrote the Song of Benevolence and Righteousness with awe, praising the immortal achievements of historical figures, and expressed his ambition of "being heavy and corrupt, being heavy and immortal, and being a theory of life and death".
One day, Kublai Khan personally persuaded him to surrender, saying, "If you can treat me like you did in the Song Dynasty, I will make you Prime Minister at once." Although Wen Tianxiang was injured in the kneecap by the guards with a golden hoop, he stood upright as cool as a cucumber and replied, "There is no other way but to die." The next day, Wen Tianxiang was killed at the age of 47.
In ancient times, between Baishan and Heishui in the northeast of China, there lived a nationality-Jurchen, who lived by fishing, hunting and animal husbandry. During the Liao Dynasty, Jurchen was ruled by the Liao Dynasty. In the middle and late Liao Dynasty, the Jurchen nationality represented by Wanyanbu gradually rose and became increasingly powerful. Later, under the leadership of leader Hong Yan Akuta, he rose up, overthrew the cruel rule of Liao Dynasty and established Daikin regime.
Akuta Wanyan (1068— 1 123), also known as Min, is a man and the founder of the State of Jin. He loved riding and shooting since childhood, with great strength, generous personality and considerable organizational and leadership skills. At the age of 23, he began to go into battle and command the army, showing outstanding political and military talents. Liao Tianqing took over from his brother Wu Wei Du Boleji (leader of tribal alliance) for three years (113) and began to "grow crops and train horses", expanding the army and enhancing the military strength of Jurchen. The following year, he was awarded Our Times by Liao. Gradually unify the neighboring tribes and gradually expand their power. At the same time, build a castle, repair equipment, and prepare to fight Liao. In September of the fourth year of Tianqing (1 1 14), akuta led his troops to rise up and began a national war against Liao. Because this war was a revolt against slavery and oppression in Liao, it was supported by the people of all ethnic groups and the Song Dynasty. In order to strengthen military strength, it is stipulated that 300 households count as one gram, and 10 gram counts as a fierce security guard. Make the tribal alliance organization more militarized. Many times, we win more with less, and win stronger with weakness. In less than a year, it occupied several important towns and strongholds of Liao Dynasty in Heijiliao area of Northeast China. In the fifth year of Tianqing (1 1 15), on the first day of the first month, Aguda proclaimed himself emperor in Huining (now Acheng South Baicheng, Heilongjiang Province), with the title of Daikin and the title of country.
After Akuta ascended the throne, he revised the system internally, reorganized the army externally, and actively prepared for the destruction of Liao country. In September of the same year, he captured Huanglong Fucheng (now Nong 'an, Jilin). In December, 20,000 soldiers and 700,000 Liao troops were defeated. Capture western Liaoning the following year. In the fourth year of Jin Tianfu (1 120), Huanglinfu (now Bahrain Zuoqinan, Inner Mongolia) was captured. In six years, take Liaozhongjing (now Ningchengxi, Inner Mongolia). At the end of the same year, he captured Yanjing (now Beijing). In August of seven years, he died on his way back to Beijing (now near Acheng, Heilongjiang Province).
Aguda galloped through the battlefield all his life, completing two major events, the founding of the People's Republic of China and the elimination of Liao, and establishing immortal feats for the unity and development of Jurchen. After the establishment of the Jin regime, it also reformed the tribal alliance organization based on clan blood, and eliminated backward customs such as intermarriage with the same surname. At the same time, we pay attention to the development of production. He also ordered Wan Yan and Yin Xi to "imitate Chinese characters, because of the Khitan writing system, and combine with the national language" to create Jurchen characters, so that Jurchen ended the backward state of wood carving. It greatly promoted the political, economic and cultural development of Jurchen.
6. Battle of Gaoping
In the first year of Xiande in the Later Zhou Dynasty (954, the seventh year of Ganyou in the Northern Han Dynasty), the army of the Later Zhou Dynasty defeated the Northern Han army in Gaoping (now Shanxi).
In the first month of the first year of Xiande, Emperor Guo Wei died at the weekend, and his adopted son Chai Rong succeeded to the throne (Sejong). Liu Chong, the commander of the Northern Han Dynasty, set up a new company in Chai Rong, begging for teachers in Liao, in an attempt to unite Liao to destroy Zhou. In February, Liu Chong led an army of 30,000, and deployed Bai Conghui as the marching commander and Zhang as the pioneer. In addition, when Liao Wuding made Yang Fei ride more than 10,000 people, he went south in Jinyang (now Jinyuan Town, Taiyuan South), passed through Tuanbai (now southeast of Qixian County, Shanxi Province), settled the grain in Houyi (now northwest of Qinxian County), defeated Zhou Jun in Taiping Post (now xiang yuan) and took Luzhou (directly).
Sejong Chai Rong heard that the Northern Han Army was attacking the south, tried his best to overcome the opposition and decided to personally expedition. Life Tianxiong our Fu Yanqing and other departments from Cizhou, Guzhen (now Cixian, Wu 'an, Hebei Province) to the west, after the Northern Han Army; We ordered Wang Yanchao and others to attack the Northern Han Army from the northeast of Jinzhou (now Linfen, Shanxi); Ma Jun was ordered to command Fan Aineng and Bu Jun to command He Hui as the pioneer and go to Zezhou (now Jincheng) first. From Kaifeng (now Henan) to Huaizhou (now Qinyang) to the north, he led a great army to meet the northern Han army from the front. On March 18th, Chai Rong led the army to Zezhou.
Liu Chong didn't know about Chai Rong's personal expedition, and he won the first battle, so he underestimated his enemy and rushed forward, breaking through Luzhou and invading the south. 19, in Gaopingnan, he met the vanguard troops of the Hou Zhou Dynasty, lost in fierce fighting, and retreated to the original array of Bagong in Gaopingnan. Liu Chong led the army in the center, Zhang in the east, and Liao led the Yang cavalry in the west to fight a decisive battle. Before the Zhou Houjun arrived, Chai Rong fought against the Northern Han Army with three arrays: Bai Chongzan and others unified the left army in the west; Fan Aineng, He Huitong right army in the east; Xiang Xun, Shi Yanchao and other unified fine riders are in the middle; At the same time, he sent his troops to Jiangzhuling (now southwest of Zhangzi County, Shanxi Province) to break the retreat of the Northern Han Army.
Liu Chong despised the serenade of the later Zhou Dynasty and was proud of all the people. He claimed that he could win without the help of the Liao army. Looking forward on horseback, Yang Wei saw that Zhou Jun's lineup was neat and advised him not to travel light. Liu Chong insisted on the decisive battle and did not listen to dissuasion, so that Zhang led the cavalry to attack the right wing of Zhou Jun. After a few days of fighting, Fan Aineng and He Hui led the cavalry to escape first, and more than a thousand soldiers were killed. Chai Rong saw that the situation was critical, so he led Qin Bing to battle. Su Weiling and each led two thousand troops and attacked from the left and right wings. Zuo Jun Bai Zhongzan and others also led the troops out, and quickly formed a potential attack on the Northern Han army. In order to boost morale, Liu Chong praised the veteran Zhang for winning the first battle and asked him to lead the army to fight again. Zhang re-entered Hou's army, but was killed by a horse. When the south wind was in full swing, Zhou Jun took advantage of the situation and rushed left and right, fighting more and more bravely. Liao defeated Yang, fled in fear of war, and the northern Han army was defeated. Liu Chongju's flag was unstoppable, and more than 10,000 troops were forced to retreat. That night, Liu Ci, the rear army of Chai Rong, arrived, joined the armies, beheaded Wang Tingsi, the messenger of the Northern Han and Tang Dynasties, and pursued Gao Ping. The northern Han army was wiped out, with heavy casualties, abandoned trench and countless equipment. Liu Chong only led 100 more pro-riders to escape from Diaoanling (now northwest of Gaoping) to Jinyang.
In this battle, Liu Chong misjudged the situation and rushed to send troops. A small victory is arrogant, and a decisive battle does not look at the actual situation. It was wiped out by the whole army several times. Chai Rong command decisive, happeneth first, win in one fell swoop.
7. Fang La, a native of Qingxi, Zhejiang Province (now Chun 'an County), was the leader of the peasant uprising in the late Northern Song Dynasty. He used humanism to mobilize and organize the masses and clearly put forward the slogan of "equality". In the second year of Xuanhe, Song Huizong (A.D. 1 120), Fang La launched an uprising in Qingxituan Village, and the uprising team quickly grew to several hundred thousand people, controlling the vast areas in Zhejiang, Anhui and southern Jiangsu. Fang La Uprising lasted for nearly a year, and finally failed, and Fang La died heroically.
8, short and dark, its ugly, known as "timely rain", is really "the sea is immeasurable."
It's not martial arts, it's the leader who occupied the water margin. The original rebellion was to win over.
Song Jiang: Leader of Liangshan Uprising, one of the main characters in the novel Water Margin. The escort of the former yamen (the clerk in charge of documents) was named "Timely Rain" because he was generous and helpful. He is good at making friends, uniting different people and employing people. After the death of Classical, the leader of Dan Liang, he was recognized as the stockade master, and led the rebel army to repeatedly break the officers and men. Later, he strongly advocated accepting the court's appeal, and was ordered to crack down on other peasant rebels after the appeal. Finally, the court sentenced him to death with pigeon wine.
9. Li Gang was born in Yuanfeng, North Song Shenzong for six years (A.D. 1083) and died in Shaoxing, Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty for ten years (A.D. 1 140). My ancestral home is Shaowu, Fujian, and my ancestors moved to Wuxi. Song Huizong was a scholar in the political period. He has served as the censor and assistant to the censor of Quandian. When he was in Song Qinzong, he served as Shangshu Youcheng (Deputy Minister) and stayed in Tokyo, where he was a university student in the hall of senior ministers. Song Gaozong was the right servant of Shangshu and assistant minister of Zhongshu at that time, and worshipped him as the right minister, and the left servant and assistant minister of Jinshangshu (prime minister).
In A.D. 1 126, Jin Bing advanced on Bianjing, while Li Bangxiu and Bai Si advocated moving the capital, which was severely refuted by Li Gang. Li Gang persisted in resisting the enemy and opposed moving the capital. He was appointed as a personal envoy and was ordered to lead the army to defend the capital. Nomads from the siege, Li Gang personally bid, killing more than ten enemy leaders and thousands of foot soldiers. Nomads from the army had to retreat to far away places. Later, Li Gang organized troops to kill the enemy bravely, and the nomads from the army was forced to return to the north.
In A.D. 1 127, after Li Gang became the first prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, he immediately put forward ten suggestions, demanding that traitors such as Zhang Bangchang, who took refuge in the nomads from the army, be severely punished, attach importance to civil administration, resolutely guard against the enemy, actively reorganize the army and deploy combat readiness. He changed the military law, clarified rewards and punishments, purged military discipline, increased cavalry, recruited water army, prepared chariots, and enhanced the combat effectiveness of the army. In order to mobilize the national army and civilians to resist gold, Li Gang selected talents in many ways. Zhang Suo, Fu Liang, Zong Ze and other courageous and resourceful talents have been promoted and reused one after another, which greatly boosted the morale of the military and civilians.
Li Gang actively prepared for the war, which caused panic among Huang Qian Shan, Wang Boyan and others. They spoke ill of Li Gang in front of the emperor many times, shaking the emperor's determination to resist gold. In August of the first year of Jianyan (A.D. 1 127), Li Gang was dismissed after only 70 days in office. Li Gang, as always, worried about the country and the people, repeatedly wrote to insist on resisting gold and put forward the general plan of offensive and defensive warfare, but it was not adopted by Gao Zong because of the fear and suppression of powerful people. In the first month of the tenth year of Shaoxing (A.D. 1 140), Li Gang finally died of depression at the age of 58. Forced to dedicate it to Shao Shi, and posthumous title as a loyal minister. There are masterpieces handed down from generation to generation, such as Liang Ji, Yi Zhuan, Analects of Confucius, Biography of Jingkang, and Collection of Advice.
It's really informative to answer your question, hehe, but it's just a little tired! I hope it works!
