Drunk to pick up the lamp to see the sword, daydream to blow the pipe back to the camp, eight hundred miles of military flag urgent, fifty strings, autumn soldiers on the battlefield. The horse is as swift as a big bow, and the bowstring is like lightning. Settle the affairs of the world for the king, and win a lifetime of fame for the king. Pity me for the white head!"This poem "Breaking the Array" is a famous work by the Southern Song Dynasty poet Xin Qiji, which is popular among the people and has been praised for thousands of years, and it is written about the suffering of soldiers on the battlefield. During the Song and Song dynasties, wars raged one after another, and countless soldiers sacrificed their lives for the country, some of them went down in history, and some of them were unknown.
As Taizu of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin started as a military general, but after the Chenqiao Mutiny, he and his army broke the ban and seized the kingdom. After Zhao Kuangyin came to power, he cut down the military important place - the checkpoint, and at the same time famous"A glass of wine releases the military power"Restoration of military power. He also obtained a series of means to separate the right of association from the right to mobilize the army, and implemented a series of measures to suppress the generals, which was conducive to maintaining political stability, but also promoted the development of the military power of the Song Dynasty, which greatly weakened the military power of the Song Dynasty. Although this situation helped to maintain political stability, it also caused certain constraints on the development of the military power of the Song Dynasty. Despite this, the constant wars of the Song and Song dynasties produced a number of famous generals, the most famous of which were the Yang generals and the Yue family.
The stories of the loyalty of these two families have been widely circulated in "The Biography of the Yang Family", "The Biography of Yue Fei" and other ** and commentaries, and have almost become one of the representatives of Song Dynasty culture. When it comes to the military generals of the Song Dynasty, the first thing that comes to people's minds is the Yang generals and the Yue family's army. However, what is less known is that the really powerful military generals of the Song Dynasty were the Zhejia and the Seed Family. These two families of military generals are rarely mentioned, but they were famous all over the world during the Song Dynasty.
According to the "History of the Song Dynasty", the Song Dynasty folded the family for eight generations in the army, and it was actually a Jiangmen family with a lineage of more than 200 years;The five generations of the breeder have served in the army and made countless meritorious contributions to the Song Dynasty against foreign enemies. Especially in the Northern Song Dynasty, the family raised countless benefactors: generals such as Chong Shiheng, Chong Ping, Chong Diao, Chong Diao, Chong You, Chong Pu, Chong Shidao, and Chong Shizhong, who led soldiers to kill countless enemies and defend the country.
The early history of the Zhejiajun can be traced back to the Five Dynasties period, and its founder was the descendant of the Xianbei tribe, Zhe Congruan. The Zhejia Army originated in Datong, Shanxi, and is known for its high martial arts. The Zhejia army was stationed in Fuzhou and fought against the Khitan. During the Zhou Shizong period, Nguyen Sicong and his son Nguyen Thi Duc served as defense ministers, which was worthy of the name"Battlefield father and son"。
The representatives of the second generation of the Zhe family army are the two brothers Zhi De Ran, the son of Zhi Cong Ruan, and the Zhi De Seal brothers. In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the two brothers jointly resisted the foreign enemies in Fuzhou and defeated the Khitan army many times. Zhe Deqiu's daughter later married Yang Ye, a famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty, and was jokingly called"Folded Taijun"。
The representative of the third generation of the Zhe family army is the son of Zhe Deyan and the brothers Zhe Yuqing. After the death of Zhe Deran, Zhe Yuqing was appointed as the envoy of the Yong'an Army Festival in the fifth year of Chunhua (994 AD), and was hated by the Khitans for beheading 5,000 Khitans on the battlefield. Soon, Han Dewei, a Khitan, learned that Zhi Yanqing was seriously ill and seized the opportunity to take revenge.
His mother was worried about him and wrote to him not to go to war. In the flyer of Epic - The Biography of Yu Qing, Yu Qing's flyer replied as follows:"The minister has been pardoned by the state, and the border troubles have not been eliminated, and he is also ashamed of Yu Qing's crimes. Now the enemy is gone, and the soldiers want to do it, but they can't. Death in the army is his share, don't read me as a white lady, loyalty and filial piety can't be both!"In the end, he died on the battlefield. The leaders of the Zhejia Army are the three brothers of the Zhe family: the three brothers are loyal to the country and sacrifice their lives for the country. The main generals of the fifth generation of the Zhejia Army were Zhe Jisi, Zhe Jizu and Zhe Jimin, all of whom were famous generals who fought against Western Xia.
The most famous general of the sixth generation of Ejib was Zu Kexing, whose main achievement was to resist the invasion of Western Xia. The seventh generation of Zu Kexing was also a general of the Song Dynasty, and participated in the suppression of Fangla and Songjiang uprisings on the orders of the imperial court.
The founder of the Seed Army was the nephew of the Great Confucian Seed Fang, Chong Shiheng, who proposed to the Northern Song court to build a new city on the border, and in a very short time built a barrier against the Tanguts on the northwest border. The people loved him, and Fan Zhongyan, who was the general army in the northwest at the time, also respected him very much. Chong Shiheng had eight sons, all of whom served in the army, and each son prepared to become a military general from an early age.
Among them,"Old Breed Military Division"The Dao of the Seed Master is often mentioned in "Water Margin", and the blue-faced beast Yang Zhi, the leader of the forbidden army Wang Jin, and the nine-patterned dragon Shi Jin all respect him very much. After the planting, the third generation of the family army was established"Little third son"Seed Master Dao, Seed Division, and Seed Pu Leadership, they continue to lead the seed army to fight bloody battles and sacrifice their lives for the country.
During the Song dynasty, frequent wars and social unrest made the general's family serve the state. In addition to the more well-known Yang Jiajiang, this article also involves the Zhejia, Yuejia and Yao families in Shanxi. Due to the bad luck of the Yue family and the Yang family, coupled with the ** of traitorous ministers and courtiers, there are only two generations left, which is regrettable.
The superposition of the family, the vein of several generations fighting against foreign enemies, and the blood of countless soldiers soaked in the yellow sand. After the Jingkang Change, the Southern Song Dynasty became increasingly corrupt and weakened, the people moved south, and the descendants of the broken family and the family gradually left the northwest where they had defended the country for generations, and gradually disappeared from the stage of history. Although these two families are not as famous as the Yang family generals and the Yue family army, their contributions to the country cannot be forgotten.
