Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Li Shimin is still thinking about ways to make money.

Du Ruhui has already figured it out:

"Zhao Gou's ability to prosper to this extent... is probably inseparable from the exorbitant taxes."

Fang Xuanling also understood and said clearly:

"Three reforms in the Northern Song Dynasty brought prosperity and taxes increased twice, but the country was destroyed without any reduction."

"At the founding of the Southern Song Dynasty, new taxes were added in the name of fighting against the Jin Dynasty, but Xiaozong did not disobey Gaozong..."

Speaking of this, Fang Xuanling suddenly remembered that there was also Emperor Gaozong in the Tang Dynasty. He hesitated and changed his words:

"There is no ability to disobey Zhao Gou. From this, we know that after the Longxing peace negotiation, the Lin'an small court was more able to exploit than before."

"In this way, those who promoted business in Lin'an in the Southern Song Dynasty either used the name of Deshou Palace to tax Zhao Gou, or waited quietly for exploitation by hundreds of officials. No wonder..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Changsun Wuji agree:

"No wonder later generations called these two Song Dynasties prosperous."

"The harsh punishments suffered by merchants, workers, traders, and foot soldiers were several times greater than those in the Tang Dynasty. If you don't work hard to survive, it is tantamount to waiting for death."

"Zhao Gou of the Southern Song Dynasty did not do anything to benefit the world. However, the people of the Southern Song Dynasty all became those who tried to benefit the world by putting their own feet aside."

"It's a shame?"

This... Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other without laughing or crying, does it seem to make sense?

They themselves understood the profound meaning of the Yang Zhu School's saying that "you should be reborn without losing a single hair."

But at the moment, it is Mencius's evaluation of Yang Zhuzhi's words, which is more suitable as an evaluation of the Southern Song Dynasty Emperor.

And from another perspective, it is also quite rare for later generations to say that there is no one who can outdo someone who is selfish.

"If an ordinary man is selfish, his neighbors will be evil; if the emperor is selfish, he will bring disaster to all the people."

Wei Zheng shook his head, his face full of sadness and sigh, and he obviously didn't want to comment any more.

…

"If Xuanzong dies early, he can keep his reputation as a wise king."

"If Zhao Gou can die early, it will really benefit the world without causing any harm."

Zhang Fei now only hates that this light curtain can only be seen, otherwise he will be directly stabbed to death, thinking about it, it will also make the other party feel a lot more relaxed.

Xuan even Daqi:

"What does this shit bully mean?"

Liu Bei suddenly felt helpless. He had also discovered that the more military advisors there were around his third brother, the less he liked to think.

How does this dung tyrant live? Isn’t it clear to future generations?

But a bucket of "domestic sewage" can beg money from big households and extract money from ordinary people.

And it is conceivable that in the Southern Song Dynasty, when there were many people, little land, and high taxes, how much food could be grown on one acre of land to support his wife, children, and children?

In this case, the importance of field fertilizer is self-evident.

So in the end Liu Bei sighed:

"How difficult it is for the people!"

Zhang Fei touched his head:?

Kong Ming and Lu Su also worked on it themselves, so they quickly understood what later generations said.

"This dung tyrant is nothing more than a thief in the city, but he can run rampant in the countryside."

"If the officials are healed and healed, the thieves and thieves will retreat, and the people will be more peaceful."

"I only praise the prosperity of the capital, but ignore the accumulated disadvantages of the countryside. Calling it a management loophole is appropriate."

Lu Su whispered:

"To be able to maintain dominance for a thousand years is no different than what you can see by looking at the sky or measuring the sea."

"I'm afraid there are Chai Ba, Mountain Ba, Road Ba and the like in places we haven't heard of."

Kong Ming and Liu Bei nodded and kept this in mind.

For them, Yizhou, Hanzhong, and Guanzhong were all conquered by leading troops. People from all over the country have seen with their own eyes how powerful the army is. Many of the people's children and grandchildren are even still in Xuande Gong's army. It has only been pacified for two or three years now, and there has never been such a situation. Waiting for the thieves to settle down.

But what about another three to five years, another ten or twenty years?

Kong Ming felt that preventing problems before they occur is also an important task of government management.

[So, here we go again.

Jin Emperor Zhao Liang showed his loyalty to the Southern Song Dynasty, and Song Emperor Wan Yangou showed his filial piety to the Jin Kingdom.

Then was there no emperor who could be considered a normal person at that time?

Of course! But when it comes to this king who was contemporary with Wanyan Gou, we might as well turn our perspective back a bit. 】

Li Shimin straightened his back.

For some reason, he vaguely felt that what the younger generation said next might have something to do with Tang.

And then I watched the map of East Asia on the light screen begin to change rapidly:

The scattered small country was reunited into a weakened empire.

The weakened empire began to expand again.

Immediately, Li Shimin looked at the shrinking numbers in the upper right corner and vaguely understood what had happened.

The final time was fixed in 682.

[When we talked about the famous generals of the early Tang Dynasty before, the famous general used at the end was Pei Xingjian, who unfortunately died of illness.

In 682 AD, Ashina Chebo, the pseudo-khanate of ten surnames of the Western Turks, rebelled with his troops and intended to restore the Turkic Khanate.

Gaozong - Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty ordered Pei Xingjian to be the general manager of Jinya Road and take charge of the quelling the rebellion. However, in the end, Pei Xingjian died of illness before the army was launched.

At that time, Emperor Gaozong was seriously ill, so the counter-rebellion was still pending. In the end, Wang Fangyi, who was stationed in Tingzhou (one hundred kilometers northeast of present-day Urumqi), led an army to attack boldly and rushed to the aid of Gongyue City.

Wang Fangyi was Pei Xingjian's old partner before. His most famous achievement was building a city in the Western Regions called Suiye City. Well, it was the Suiye City that was said to be the birthplace of Li Bai.

But it is difficult for Wang Fangyi himself to realize how much his career has changed world history.

After rushing to the rescue of Gongyue City, Wang Fangyi won a great victory. Seeing that the situation was not good, Ashina fled westward. The two sides finally faced off at Rehai (now Issyk-Kul Lake in Kyrgyzstan).

Rehai is located in Central Asia. It is the base of the Western Turks. The surrounding nomadic tribes have had inextricable ties with the Western Turks for two hundred years.

Relying on the influence of his ancestors, Ashina Chebo quickly gathered 100,000 people from the surrounding areas.

After Wang Fangyi failed to break the formation for the first time when he chased here, Ashina Chebo began to try to use his surname of "Golden Family" to incite the Turks under Wang Fangyi.

This behavior was not very successful. Wang Fangyi and his Turks took advantage of the situation and finally successfully raided Ashina Chebo's king's tent, defeated the Turkish coalition, and finally chased all the way to Chuhe. Seeing that time was beginning to enter winter and the river was frozen, Wang Fangyi chose to retreat.

This battle had a far-reaching impact. First of all, Ashina Chebo's defeat was tantamount to the current Pope being beaten up in the Vatican. He lost all his prestige and could no longer command the Turkic tribes. The Turkic Khanate was swept into the garbage dump of history.

The Turkic general Chishi Hongfu, who was loyal to Wang Fangyi, was promoted to guerrilla general, and was promoted all the way, and finally became the general Jiashangzhuguo. He then used his influence to integrate the Turkic tribes loyal to the Tang Dynasty. The three surnames of Karluk came onto the historical stage and were an important force in the Western Regions and Central Asia until the Yuan Dynasty.

The Turkic rebels who escaped Wang Fangyi's pursuit crossed the Chu River and wandered westward under the leadership of a leader named Wugu. At that time, the Mukanna uprising broke out in the Abbasid Dynasty of Arabia, and this Turkic people joined.

Although they were defeated quickly, they also successfully crossed the territory of the Abbasid Dynasty and entered the Khwarazm region. After intermarrying with the local ethnic groups, this Turkic people established the Oghuz Yabhu Kingdom and called themselves the Oghuz people.

In the mid-tenth century, the Seljuk tribe, which belonged to the four major tribes of the Oghuz Yabhu Kingdom, became independent under the leadership of the leader.

From the 1140s, the independent Seljuk Turks successively conquered the entire Persian territory, marched into Baghdad, and reversely controlled the Abbasid Dynasty of the Arab Empire. In the subsequent war, led by Sultan Arsalan, they defeated the Byzantine Empire head-on and captured its emperor Romanus IV. At this point, the Seljuk Empire reached its peak.

But the good fortune of the Turkish Seljuk Empire did not last long. Fifty years later, the eliminated of the East Asian monster room joined the Central Asian battlefield. 】
