Chapter 256 Paralympic General, Li Guang... (for subscription)
If you just look at the history of a country alone, there may be many things that you cannot prove.

For example, is there such a country as Da Yuezhi?

but.

If you pass through some other countries, perhaps the answer becomes clear.

The original Guishuang Empire was one of the four great empires in Asia and Europe.

His former territory spanned Central Asia and South Asia.

In places such as Central Asia and South Asia, there will inevitably be countless materials about the Guishuang Empire.

"I think the Guishuang Empire is the descendant of the Great Yuezhi."

"Da Yuezhi was originally in the Western Regions. For the Central Asians, they came from the East. At the same time, their fighting methods are also very special, some of them are like the Huns. In addition, they have rich combat experience, so when they appear Defeated the Great Xia Kingdom, and went all the way south, conquering a series of areas around the Ganges River."

"From the printed book "The Century of Kings", many of the descriptions of the life of the Guishuang Empire are the same as those of the Da Yuezhi."

"Let's take a look at many of the equipment unearthed during the rule of the Guishuang Empire. Many of them are the same as the weapons used by the Eastern Han Dynasty."

of course.

Not just Tianzhu on this side of South Asia.

Uzi country.

stan country.

In Bangladesh, some historians have also spoken out.

And as these historians from various countries continue to send out their research.

In an instant, Wen Zhimin's Weibo was attacked.

"Professor Wen, come, come and see the views of this historian of Tianzhu Kingdom."

"By the way, there are also those from Uz, Stan, and Bangladesh..."

"I believe you agree very much with what foreigners say, come and comment?"

"Don't ask him to evaluate it. At this level, he is still a professor of the History Department of Western University."

"It is recommended that Western University carefully examine the academic level of this Professor Wen. It is not good to mislead his disciples."

……

Naturally, it wasn't Chen Fan who called them up to beat Wen Zhimin.

But Chen Fan didn't need to speak out, all the fans had already gone up by coincidence.

In fact, they have been displeased with Wen Zhimin for a long time.

In many previous matchups, ordinary netizens could not take advantage of too much.

no way.

Ordinary netizens are just ordinary people, at most they are history buffs, and they don't have much research on history.

On the overall level, it is not as good as Wen Zhimin.

So many times, when discussing historical issues, even though they don't like Wen Zhimin, they can't say no to Wen Zhimin.

At least in terms of professionalism, they can't be said.

but now.

With Chen Fan's joining, the whole situation changed drastically.

With the release of a series of information, Wen Zhimin was not only ridiculed by many netizens on Weibo.

even.

He was in school, and some students began to have a different view of him.

"Professor, I think there is definitely a country called Da Yuezhi in the Western Regions."

"Dayue clan, the clan name here is pronounced zi, which is very similar to the pronunciation of Yuzhi in Tianzhu country."

"Professor, in addition, from the perspective of the origin of Buddhism, there is also a great relationship with the Da Yuezhi. Because the Da Yuezhi expanded to the south and hit the Ganges River. Therefore, Buddhism has also spread to China from that time. "

"Yes, professor. Judging from this speculation, the route they took should be from Tianzhu to the Western Regions, and then from the Western Regions to the Han Dynasty."

The appearance of these students challenged Wen Zhimin's authority time and time again.

Besides.

After these studies continued to appear, a number of other domestic history scholars also gave more interpretations.

"First of all, let me talk about whether there is a Silk Road. It does exist. However, it may not be called the Silk Road at that time, or there is no such title. The Silk Road is just a name given by Mr. Chen Fan. You can disagree with what he chose. name, but this trade route must exist."

"We can take another evidence. The route Tang Xuanzang took is actually exactly the same as the Silk Road. He first set off from Chang'an, then passed through the Western Regions, then went to the Central Asian countries, and then arrived at Tianzhu in South Asia. Why did he take this route? Road, why didn’t he go from the side of Yun Province? It’s very simple, it’s because the side of Yun Province seems to be very close to Tianzhu, but the south hadn’t been opened up at that time, and there were fierce beasts and poisonous insects everywhere. The ancient technology, It is difficult for you to cross at all. On the contrary, it is the Silk Road, because it has been used since the Han Dynasty, and there are countless merchants, the road is not only easy to travel, but also more convenient.”

"As for whether there is such a person as Zhang Qian, for the time being, there is no history book, but there is an emissary from the East recorded in the history books of Stan. This emissary should be Zhang Qian. However, even if there is no Zhang Qian, there are others. There is a person who opened his eyes to the Western Regions. Otherwise, in the past many years, it would have been difficult for the Chinese nation to deal with countries in the Western Regions, let alone deal with the Xiongnu. Or even if they could deal with them, they would not fight many times, let alone Needless to say, go deep into the Western Regions to fight. After all, if you are not familiar with the place, who knows what the situation in the Western Regions is. Many times when you leave Yumen Pass, there is not a single ghost there."

However, through Zhang Qian, this allowed the Han Dynasty to recognize the existing conditions of the countries in the Western Regions, and also realized the relationship between the countries in the Western Regions and the Huns.In the end, the Han Dynasty incorporated the Western Regions into the territory of the Han Dynasty through its own force and strategy. "

If you connect these.

Then, you can understand many things about the Han Dynasty.

……

"Professor Wen, go online and answer."

"do not want to answer."

"I heard that you are at Western University, and half of the students don't want to take your class."

"rumor."

"What are the rumors? I'm a student of Western University, so I don't want to take your class."

"What's your name, don't pass my class."

"Who cares about taking your class, even if I don't, I won't take your class."

……

"Brother Fan, mighty."

"Brother Fan, awesome."

"Brother Fan..."

Live again.

As soon as it went online, countless subtitles were continuously posted.

Chen Fan waved his hand to keep everyone from getting excited, and said, "These are basic operations."

A group of fans naturally raised their middle fingers, and replied again: "We are still good friends without pretending."

Pretending to be forced is naturally necessary.

How can you live without pretending?

Chen Fan set up his mobile phone, and then said: "Let's continue."

"Brother Fan, continue to talk about the Western Regions?"

"Although the Western Regions are wonderful, in fact, the Western Regions mentioned earlier was just to draw out the Han Dynasty. What I want to talk about is the Han Dynasty. As the first person in China to open his eyes to see the world, Zhang Qian has made great contributions. However, if there are no such The general who defended the country, no matter how powerful the Han Dynasty was, the 36 countries in the Western Regions could not be included in the territory of the Han Dynasty. Today, I want to tell you about a very famous general Li Guang during the Han Dynasty."

"Who is Li Guang?"

"I mentioned Li Guang a little before. Wang Bo mentioned in his Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion that Feng Tangyi was old, and Li Guang was hard to seal. Li Guang here is hard to seal. It is said that Li Guang fought all his life. The Han Dynasty has made outstanding contributions, but it has not been granted the title of marquis. In addition, this is also in Wang Changling's poem, but the Dragon City Flying General is kept, and Huma is not taught to go to Yinshan... The Dragon City Flying General here is Li Guang, also known as the parachutist."

Before, Chen Fan simply explained Li Guang.

But speaking of Li Guang, he was a legend all his life.

"Pilot General, Li Guang... Tsk tsk, this title is awesome."

"On the one hand, there is the Flying General of Dragon City, and on the other hand, Li Guang Nanfeng... It seems very contradictory, Brother Fan, what's going on?"

For Li Guang.

Many people remembered.

but.

When Chen Fan said that, everyone felt a little strange about Li Guang.

Since this flying general is so awesome, he should have been granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister long ago.

But if he is not awesome, how could he have the title of parachutist, and how could so many poets of the Tang Dynasty write about him?

Regarding this, Chen Fan was unhurried, and said, "Li Guang, he is the descendant of Li Xin of Qin. He has been proficient in archery since he was a child. Once when Li Guang was hunting, he saw a stone in the grass and thought it was a tiger. , opened the bow and shot, and shot the whole arrow into the stone. After walking over and looking carefully, it turned out to be a stone. If you shoot again later, you can't shoot it into the stone.

During the period of Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty, Li Guang joined the army as a child of a good family.Because he was proficient in horseback riding and archery, he beheaded many Xiongnu heads, so he was appointed Hanzhong Lang.Li Guang followed the emperor to hunt and kill beasts several times. Emperor Han Wen said: "It's a pity, you didn't meet the opportunity. If you were born in the emperor's generation, it would be no problem to be a ten thousand householder!"

"After Emperor Han Jing ascended the throne, the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu broke out in the Han Dynasty. At this time, Li Guang served as the captain of Xiaoqi, and followed the Taiwei Zhou Yafu to fight back against the Wu and Chu rebels. Under the city of Changyi, he captured the rebels' flag and made a great contribution to his reputation. At that time, the king of Liang valued Li Guang very much, so he gave Li Guang the general seal. After returning to the teacher, the court learned that Li Guang had accepted the general seal of the king of Liang, and then did not reward Li Guang."

At this time.

Some fans asked: "Brother Fan, there are some people who don't understand why Li Guang received the general seal of King Liang, and the court didn't reward him. Didn't he make military exploits?"

"Indeed."

Chen Fan nodded: "Li Guang did make famous military exploits during the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, but King Liang had conflicts with Emperor Jing at that time. King Liang really wanted to replace Emperor Jing, so he wanted to pull the cage during the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion. Li Guang. It’s a pity that the current emperor is Emperor Han Jing. Li Guang accepted Liang Wang’s general seal privately. This actually shows that Li Guang intends to stand in line with Liang Wang. Under such circumstances, even if Li Guang made great contributions, They will not be rewarded by the imperial court."

This said, everyone understood.

This is a question of standing.

At that time, Li Guang was on the wrong team.

Then, Chen Fan continued: "Later Li Guang was transferred to the prefect of Shanggu, and basically dealt with the Huns every day. As for Li Guang, although he was a general, he ate and lived with the soldiers. It is even stricter for soldiers. For example, when he sees a source of water while marching, he will let the soldiers drink the water before he will continue to drink. When eating, he will let the soldiers finish eating before he will eat .Because Li Guang is very compassionate to the soldiers, the soldiers all like to follow Li Guang."

"Not only the soldiers liked Li Guang, because Li Guang was very good at leading troops in battles, so the Huns were often afraid of him. After Emperor Wu of the Han came to the throne, because of Li Guang's great reputation, Emperor Wu of the Han trusted Li Guang very much, and sent He guarded You Beiping, the prefect of Youbeiping. The Huns knew that Li Guang was guarding this place, and they called Li Guang a parachutist. They avoided Li Guang a lot of the time. For a few years, the Huns did not dare to invade."

"But despite this, Li Guang fought many battles with the Huns, and he made a lot of contributions and killed many Huns. But what made Li Guang very sad was that he had not been enshrined as a marquis all this time. On the contrary, that Those who were much younger than him were all enshrined as marquises and prime ministers. This is what Wang Bo said, Li Guang was hard to be conferred. Even when he died, Li Guang was not enshrined as a marquis."

This is also the most tragic thing for Li Guang.

He also asked a series of people about this matter, but they couldn't give any results.

Even now, when Chen Fan mentioned Li Guang, everyone couldn't help asking: "Brother Fan, why hasn't Li Guang been named a Marquis? He has made such great contributions and is so famous, so he should be named a Marquis."

"Actually, Emperor Hanwen said that the reason why Li Guang was not granted the title of Marquis is because he did not have a good opportunity."

"Didn't you meet a good opportunity?"

Some people do not understand.

Chen Fan explained again: "During the period of Emperor Wenwen and Emperor Han Jing, their strategy against the Xiongnu was basically defensive. Therefore, Li Guang's defense against the Xiongnu was more of a defensive war. Although this defense was well done Very good, but in terms of military merit, it is nothing. He is a bit like a goalkeeper. When the football is shot, you defend it. .”

"But later, during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, because Zhang Qian was on a mission to the Western Regions, he obtained a series of information about the Western Regions. This allowed Emperor Wu of the Han to understand the situation in the Western Regions. After that, Emperor Wu of the Han also adjusted his original strategy. They started from The original defense was transformed into an offense. And it is precisely because of this change that when Li Guang, who has always been good at defensive warfare, asked him to take the initiative to attack the Huns, Li Guang suffered defeats one after another."

This said.

Everyone understood something.

This is the end.

It was also because Emperor Wu of the Han adjusted his strategy against the Huns.

From the original defense to the active offense, Li Guang then ushered in a series of defeats.

During the Battle of Dragon City, Emperor Wu of Han personally dispatched four groups to attack the Xiongnu.

As a result, among the four, only the road went smoothly.

Among the other three routes, one returned without success, and the remaining two routes, that is, Li Guang and Gongsun Ao, returned in complete defeat.

The worst was Li Guang, whose army was almost wiped out, and even himself was arrested.

In the end, he was clever, and Li Guang escaped while being escorted.

But because of this, Li Guang was abolished as a commoner.

later.

Because of the continuous invasion of the Huns, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Li Guang again.

Originally, Li Guang and Zhang Qian led troops to attack the Huns, but later Zhang Qian was late, so that Li Guang almost finished the whole army.

The most tragic one was the Battle of Mobei.

When it comes to this battle, Chen Fan is gratified and also has some emotions.

It is gratifying that this battle made a certain general a god, but the tragedy is that Li Guang lost his way in this battle.

After sorting out his thoughts, Chen Fan said: "In 119 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty launched the Battle of Mobei. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing each led [-] cavalry from Dingxiang and Daijun to attack the Xiongnu headquarters across the desert. Li Guang asked several times Along with him, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty initially refused because he was old, but later he could not stand Li Guang’s request and agreed to him as a former general. But although he agreed to send troops, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very familiar with Li Guang. He felt that Li Guang’s defense should be no problem , If you fight this kind of proactive attack, it is basically useless.

Moreover, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was more superstitious. He believed that Li Guang had followed Emperor Wen since he was a child, followed Emperor Jing later, and finally followed himself. He was a veteran of the three dynasties.He felt that Li Guang's luck was a little bit bad, and his fate was not good, so he didn't want him to be the main force.He then told Wei Qing that he hoped that Wei Qing would not let Li Guang take the initiative to attack. "

"In fact, Wei Qing has always followed the requirements of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He did not let Li Guang be the main force, but let Li Guang go around the east road. Li Guang said to Wei Qing, my position is a former general, but the general Order me to send troops from the east, besides, I have been fighting against the Xiongnu since I was young, and I have only had one chance to fight against the Xiongnu until now, I would like to be the vanguard and fight the Shanyu first."

At this time, a fan asked: "Li Guang wants to take this opportunity to kill the Xiongnu and make military achievements to make him a marquis?"

"Yes."

Chen Fan nodded: "At this time Li Guang is very old, he knows that if he doesn't seize this opportunity, he may never have another chance. But Wei Qing still didn't agree."

"This……"

The fans didn't know what to say at this time.

They had a good impression of Li Guang that Chen Fan mentioned.

after all.

Among the previous poems, many poets spoke very highly of Li Guang.

But so that the Dragon City Feijiang will be there, he will not teach Huma Du Yinshan.

Such a high evaluation also makes everyone think that Li Guang is a very talented general.

They really hope that Li Guang can have a good result.

but.

They know it too.

Li Guang is old now.

And how can it be so messy to lead troops to fight.

Li Guang wanted to make meritorious service and become a marquis, but his strength was really weak in the area of ​​active attack.

In this regard.

Chen Fan didn't want to make too many comments, he only stated the facts at the time: "In a fit of anger, Li Guang didn't say goodbye to Wei Qing, and set off with his troops ahead of time. As a result, Wei Qing fought with the Xiongnu Shanyu and beat the Xiongnu to pieces. , was going to capture the Xiongnu Shanyu alive, but because of insufficient manpower, Shanyu finally escaped. And where did Li Guang go? It turned out that Li Guang, who left with a large army, lost his way after entering Mobei. When Wei Qing came back after withdrawing his troops, he ran into Li Guang who was still behind..."

Sometimes reality is like this.

You thought it was your last chance and wanted to take advantage of it.

result.

Although the last opportunity was a chance, he still didn't grasp it.

"After seeing Li Guang who was lost, Wei Qing gave Li Guang dry food and wine. By the way, he asked Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi about the lost situation. Wei Qing wanted to write a letter to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to report the military situation. Li Guang did not answer. Wei Qing ordered Li Guang's shogunate staff Go to be tried and confronted. Li Guang said, the captains are innocent, I lost my way, and I will go to the general's shogunate in person to be tried and confronted. When I arrived at the general's shogunate, Li Guang said to Wei Qing's subordinates, I have been with the Huns since I was young. I have fought more than 70 times, and now I have the honor to go out with the general to fight against Shanyu's army, but the general sent my troops to take a roundabout way, and I got lost. Isn't it God's will? Besides, I am over 60 years old, and I can no longer suffer from those wars. I was insulted by the knife and pen official, so I drew my knife and killed myself..."

Close your eyes.

Chen Fan could see that extremely lonely scene.
