Chapter 1001 : The Enemy Will Fall

When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, Liu Bowen was shocked. He read a lot on weekdays, so he naturally knew the weight of this sentence. The ancient ID cards were very rich in styles: tiger talisman, rabbit talisman, fish talisman, turtle talisman, dragon talisman, Linfu, tooth talisman, waist talisman, etc., all belong to level ID cards, which is the so-called "to clarify the noble and humble, and to respond to the call." Among this type of ID cards, fish talisman is the most typical and popular, and it was used for a long time. Later, when Wu Zetian was in power, the fish talisman was once abolished as a turtle talisman. Although the form changed, the function of the ID card was the same and did not change.

Fish Talisman, the official use of this kind of ID card was in the Tang Dynasty, and was an invention by Li Yuan, the Emperor Gaozu of Tang. After Li Yuan entered Chang'an, he abolished the old ID card system of the Sui Dynasty, changed the "bamboo talisman" used by the Sui Dynasty to "silver rabbit talisman", and then changed it to "copper fish talisman", which included two types of fish talisman and fish patrol talisman. The fish talisman was divided into left and right, and the method of use was to place the left and right talisman "***" (inner court) as the "bottom root"; the right talisman was carried by the holder as a proof of identity. The number of left and right talismans is not necessarily equal, and the amount is determined based on the number of users and actual needs. Its first function was not to indicate identity, but a "power certificate", which could be used to mobilize the army and appoint and remove officials.

In the Tang Dynasty, the promotion of the ID card system was particularly important. Even the envoys of the foreign countries such as Goguryeo and Annan all sent different styles of talismans. The foreign countries were divided into male and female talismans, and the male talismans were left in the court, and the female talismans (as many as 12 yuan) were handed over to the foreign countries to take them back. If there were ministers, the identity was proved by the combination of male and female talismans. The crown prince also had an ID card, but it was not a talisman, but a jade-like ID card, which was called the so-called "jade confiscation". If the emperor went out to fight in person, or had other things not in Beijing, the crown prince was the "acting president" (the governor), and the ID card was different, and the "dragon talisman" was used; if the prince or minister stayed behind, the identity card was issued to the "Linfu".

The most famous talisman is the "tiger talisman", which is generally used by military generals. Why didn't the tiger-shaped talisman be used when the Tang Dynasty implemented the ID card system? It turned out that this was to avoid the "tiger" of his ancestor Li Hu. Later, when Wu Zetian changed his dynasty to the Great Zhou Dynasty, why did he not use tigers but to use turtles? Maybe it was because turtles are more precious and respected than fish. Although the turtle talisman disappeared soon after, it left behind a very popular word in the past - the golden turtle son-in-law. The golden turtle son-in-law is the best

Think about it, my daughter found a man with an ID card called "golden beetle" as her husband, and at least a third-rank official. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty poet Li Shangyin left a famous poem "For You": "For You, the cloud screen is infinitely beautiful, the phoenix city is cold and afraid of spring night. I marry the golden beetle son-in-law for no reason, and I let down the morning court. At this time, I heard that the golden waist sign is engraved with the official position of the General of Jinwu. Anyone who sees such waist signs will look surprised.

Xu Da looked at the three of them in surprise, smiled proudly, and said, "My lord has a good vision, what he said is not bad?"

"It's really a Jinwu general's waist card? Where did you get it? Could it be that the Tartars came to attack..." Zhu Yuanzhang's face changed drastically.

Chang Yuchun and Liu Bowen also looked nervous, and the two looked at Xu Da one after another.

Xu Da said: "My lord, please relax. This waist card is indeed from the Tartar court, but now it is not?"

Seeing everyone's faces showing a puzzled look, Xu Da didn't dare to keep it in secret and hurriedly said, "Did the last general's camp take two people this morning?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes narrowed, a trace of doubt flashed through his eyes, and he asked in a cold tone: "Who is it?"

Xu Da said: "Chen Youliang's command of Jinwu, Liu Fang, and Hu Bo!"

The three of them were secretly surprised to hear that they fought with Chen Youliang many times, half of each victory or defeat. After the Battle of Longwan and Jiangzhou, many Han troops came to surrender, but most of them were small envoys, Qianhu, and generals. General Xiang Jinwu could not even think about it, because it was not a last resort, as a general, who would be willing to surrender to the enemy? Liu Fang and Hu Bo were originally unknown, and few people in the Zhu army could hear the names of these two people. However, in the Battle of Hongdu, the two men in the hands of Poyang Lake, and everyone fought bravely to kill the enemy. These two men were even more brave and extremely powerful. Their reputation had been spread throughout the Zhu army camp. Even Zhu Yuanzhang heard the lives of the two men many times. He did not expect that the two men would come to join him. This shocking news really surprised him.

As soon as Xu Da's words came to an end, they immediately shocked Chang Yuchun and Liu Ji. The enemy's first-class surrendered to the future. If the situation in the enemy was not irreversible, would they be so? The two were happy and did not care about Zhu Yuanzhang's presence. They whispered with each other with their arms around each other, as if they did not take Zhu Yuanzhang seriously. Zhu Yuanzhang was also extremely happy about such happy things and did not care about their rude behavior.

Zhu Yuanzhang put his waist card in his hand and weighed it, then threw it to Xu Da, saying, "The enemy will surrender before the war has begun. This is a good thing. However, Huang Gai burned Cao's army's 800,000 troops, which is also a fact. Now that the war is imminent, we must be cautious!"

Xu Da bowed and said, "The Lord is right! But the general has carefully investigated it. Doesn't it seem like there is a false view of the two of them coming to surrender this time?"

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang said oh, glanced at Xu Da, and asked, "How can I see it?"

Xu Da bowed and said, "The last general has questioned the two of them carefully. From the two, he learned that Chen Youliang's original plan was to take advantage of the war to kill the lord, to make our army's morale chaos, and then take the opportunity to slap our army, and then slid down from Poyang Lake and seize Jinling City. After repairing, he sent troops to Hongdu City! Unfortunately, Chen Youliang's wishful thinking was destroyed by Brother Xiao! When he learned that the lord was not dead, Chen Youliang was angry and despite the lack of food and grass in the army, he insisted on fighting with the general to the death tomorrow!"

"Fight to the death!" Liu Bowen was shocked and whispered, "It's coming so fast?" After saying that, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and saw that his face was calm, he didn't care at all. He couldn't help but point a little, and thought to himself, "It turns out that he has the courage to fall in front of Mount Tai and remain unchanged! Chen Youliang is sure to lose this battle!"

Xu Da continued: "After learning this news, I asked someone to sneak into the Han army camp overnight. After some investigation, Chen Youliang issued an order for tomorrow's decisive battle as the two generals said! And the last general also found out that there was a strange thing about Chen Youliang's angrily killing the old man in the army in the Han army camp circulating in the Han army camp? "
