Chapter 60 Big ears scratching you
Needless to say, Wen Tianxiang is loyal and wise forever.
"Since ancient times, no one has died, but he will leave his loyalty to shine in history." This is an example of many loyal martyrs in later generations, and a portrayal of the character of the Han people.
His literary attainments are at present, and he can be the leader of the literary world, and his integrity and integrity are praised by the people.
The appeal among the people is incomparable to the descendants of the royal family such as Zhao Wei.
As for the other, Zhang Jue and Zhang Junyu, although their reputation was not as high as Wen Tianxiang in later generations, they were not as high as Wen Tianxiang, but their prestige in the army, especially in Bashu, was beyond the reach of anyone.
Although Zhang Shijie was the supreme emperor of the Grand Marshal and was in charge of the military power of the Song Dynasty, he was not even a scumbag compared with Zhang Jue.
Zhang Jue can be said to be the last character like a war god in the last dynasty of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Let me put it this way, when the Northern Song Dynasty retreated south during the Song and Jin Dynasties, in order to resist the Jin Dynasty's advance south, the Song army dug a large hole in the Yellow River, which artificially caused the largest divert in history, to borrow the Huai River into the sea.
In other words, the Yellow River, which originally entered the sea from Shandong, flowed southward and almost merged into the Yangtze River.
This largest divert has overwhelmed the lower reaches of the Huaihe River, forming a nido yellow flood zone that stretches thousands of miles across, and has become the most important natural defense line for the Southern Song Dynasty in the Jianghuai region.
The silt in the Jianghuai River not only blocked the Jin people, but also blocked the later Mongolian Yuan.
So much so that when the Mongolian Yuan attacked the Song Dynasty, he could not move south from the most convenient Jianghuai, but could only choose two other breakthroughs.
One is Xiangfan, that is, Xiangyang and Fancheng.
This later novel, the four battles often mentioned in TV series, was intersected by the Dabie Mountains, the Daba Mountains and the Qinling Mountains, which was the only way for the Mongolian army to go south. The Yuan army fought for six years and finally ended with the defender Lu Wenhuan who threw himself into the Yuan Dynasty.
The other is Sichuan.
Entering Sichuan and exiting the Yangtze River from the Three Gorges, you can also go east along the Yangtze River and directly attack Huanglong.
There are three most important places for dispute in Sichuan:
One place is Chongqing Prefecture, which is Chongqing in later generations. This is the gateway of the Three Gorges. If it is lost, the gateway of the Three Gorges will be wide open, and it is easy for the Mongolian Yuan to leave the Sichuan River.
The second place is Shenbing City located in Luzhou, which guards the Yangtze River and is the western gate of Chongqing. If it is lost here, the Yuan army along the upper reaches of the Yangtze River can directly reach the city of Chongqing.
The third place is Diaoyu City located in Hechuan, which guards the banks of the Jialing River. The Yuan army from Gansu and Shaanxi entered Sichuan, crossed the Qinling Road, passed through the Lizhou and Bazhou, and went southward along the Jialing River. If there is any loss, Chongqing will be in danger.
In fact, the first territory of the Southern Song Dynasty occupied by the Yuan army was Sichuan, and the last one was also Sichuan.
Nearly half a century ago, in the era of the Great Mongol Empire, Mongke Da Khan took a two-pronged approach to Bashu.
On the one hand, he sent troops from Gansu and Shaanxi to attack the south from the Qinling Road; on the other hand, he conquered the Western Xia, Tubo, and Dali Kingdoms, detoured the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and attacked from the southwest of the Bashu Basin.
After more than ten years of hard work in Mengge's Khan, he finally occupied the entire territory of Bashu forty years ago, leaving only Chongqing, Shen'er and Fishing City without being included.
It can be said that the unstoppable Mongolian army could have declared destruction as long as it captured the three cities and occupied the Three Gorges Gate.
However, Mengge did not expect that he, the immortal Khan, who swept across Europe and Asia, would fail in a Diaoyu City that he had never heard of.
His successor Kublai Khan even unexpectedly, the last door block that stood in front of the Southern Song Dynasty trapped him for thirty-six years.
It was these three lonely cities that formed the last line of defense of the Southern Song Dynasty. Until the demise of the Zhao Song Dynasty, no Yuan soldiers were left to enter the Three Gorges Waterway.
In the more than 40 years since the Mongolian army entered Sichuan, almost all of them were in the shadow of Zhang Jue. Even in the last twenty years, Zhang Jue was the only one to support the overall situation.
In the eyes of the soldiers and civilians of Bashu, Zhang Junyu's name is Dinghai Shen Needle, and he is even more like a god.
Even in the eyes of the Yuan army soldiers, he was a godlike existence.
If the first person Kublai Khan wanted to capture the most was Wen Tianxiang, then the second was Zhang Jue.
Although Zhang Jue was only a small commander of Sichuan and Shaanxi until he was captured and the governor of Chongqing, this person was above the vast majority of Song ministers in terms of talent and fame, and should not be ignored.
With Wen Tianxiang, one with Wen Tianxiang and one with military affairs, they are not only two loyal and righteous ministers, but more importantly, these two people represent the hearts of the people of the old Song Dynasty.
Yes, although Zhao Wei is unwilling to admit it, the Zhao family's stupidity has defeated all the virtues accumulated by their ancestors! If you want a plural dynasty to regain the country, it is far from enough to have advanced weapons from America. More importantly, the people's will rather than want Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue, it is better to say that what Zhao Song needs is the heart of the people.
However, the problem arises. Zhang Jue, like Wen Tianxiang, was unfortunately captured.
Senior war criminals of this level are all locked in Dadu, that is, Beijing in later generations. Kublai Khan calls him from time to time to chat, hoping to surrender early.
For example, Wen Tianxiang, in the original history, Wen Tianxiang was captured to killed for four or five years. Kublai Khan persuaded him to surrender on his left and the right, and he was reluctant to give up, so he almost let him be released as a Taoist priest.
Emperor Yuan attaches so much importance to it, let alone saving people, it is impossible to meet each other. How can I save you? Is it a fool?
Anyway, Ma Xiaoyi can't understand it.
But then again, why don’t Zhao Wei know that it is unlikely to save him?
But there is no way. If it were other times, Zhao Wei, a time traveler, could slowly accumulate fame and arouse the aspirations of the people.
But this was the reciprocity of the Song and Yuan dynasties, and after the Yashan Seafall, how could Zhao Wei go step by step?
Apart from these two people, no one in Dasong has the ability or confidence.
"Precisely because it is difficult to save it, Zhao Wei saw that Ma Erma still refused to give up, so he had to tell the truth, "That's why he went to find your father!"
"My father?" Ma Erye was stunned, "Can my father help you save people?"
Zhao Weiyile, "Your father can't help me save people, but your father can help me go to Dadu."
Mr. Ma was confused and didn't understand even more, "Why did my father help you?"
"Hehe." Zhao Wei smiled even more slutty, "Your father can surrender the Yuan Dynasty."
"puff!!!"
Mr. Ma was angry, "You asked my father to surrender the Yuan Dynasty?"
Well, this fourth brother is cheating everyone. If he wants his father to surrender the Yuan Dynasty, it would be better to kill the old man.
As mentioned before, Ma Xiaoyi's father was named Ma Nanbao, and the Ma family is also a scholarly family in Xinhui and has a commercial property.
It has nothing to do with the great cause of the country, and it is impossible to leave a blank space in history. However, such an unknown young man is the benefactor of the Zhao royal family. Even the Song court can reach this day, thanks to Ma Nanbao.
The story started in the second year of Song Jingyan.
At that time, the official family was Zhao Bing's brother Duanzong. He escaped from the Yuan army and fled to Xiangshan, Xinhui. Ma Nanbao, a local tycoon, offered thousands of stones of grain to serve as military resources.
Later, Song Ting continued to flee and returned to Ma Nanbao's house. Ma Nanbao took the risk and hid Duan Zong and his party at home, and was temporarily in charge.
It was at that time that Zhao Wei and Ma Xiaoyi had a similar stinking taste and became brothers.
Later, Duanzong fled again and died of illness from the sea.
The Song court fled to the Song Dynasty and had no ability to bury Duanzong. It was Ma Nanbao who buried the fake coffin. He also hired people to make five suspicious tombs in Shouxingtang to cover up the truth. Duanzong's body was buried in Yongfu Tomb, Yashan.
Old Master Ma is sincere to the Song Dynasty, and the world is understandable, and he has long been prepared to share life and death with the Song court.
The eldest son died early, so he sent his only son Ma Xiaoyi to the front of the army, and he also planned to wander with the army.
Unfortunately, luck made people feel bad. Before the Battle of Yashan, Ma Nanbao was seriously ill and could not afford to go with him, so he missed his later trip to America.
In the original history, the Song Dynasty was destroyed in Yashan. When Ma Nanbao learned about it, he vomited blood and cried, and soon he followed the emperor.
Just such a loyal scholar, who is a scholar, would you let him surrender to the Yuan Dynasty?
Ma Xiaoyi looked at Zhao Wei and laughed dryly, "Haha, do you believe my father is slapping you with a big ear?"
Zhao Wei was stunned and subconsciously touched his cheek, "Let's go!".
This chapter is a bit miserable, it's all explained by characters, I'm sorry.
But it is very necessary, after all, they are all important roles.
