Guo Ziyi is 80 years old and still has many wives and concubines, and is a good drinker, and scholars warn: Otherwise, the Guo family will be exterminated.
Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to give your ministers a few peerless beauties. After hearing this, Qin Shi Huang asked with some surprise: "Aiqing, you are eighty years old this year, right?""Back to the emperor, the old minister is indeed eighty this year, but his body is very healthy, and he can still eat several bowls of rice in one meal!
Qin Shi Huang laughed and waved his hand: "Come on, choose six peerless beauties and send them to the general's mansion, so that the general can enjoy them." "In 215 B.C., Meng Tian made a meritorious conquest.
Qin Shi Huang wanted to be rewarded, but he really didn't know what to reward for this veteran who had great military exploits. "The general has worked hard in the war, and there is nothing else to reward, how about giving you the title of prime minister?
When Meng Tian heard this, he bent down slightly and clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't dare to be a minister." Besides, it is the duty of the old minister to pacify the war, and he really dare not ask for reward. "The general is too modest, since he doesn't want to be sealed, what do you want for other rewards!."
Speak up and listen. Meng Tian was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said with some embarrassment, "If the emperor really wants to reward him, it is better to give it to his ministers a few peerless beauties!"
And this general who dares to ask the emperor for a woman is one of the few people in history who can still die a good death at the age of 85.
In 697 A.D., in Layue, Guo Fu of Zheng County gave birth to a son, who cried incessantly, and his weight did not lose but rose, and he was regarded as a genius by everyone. Guo Ziyi was influenced by her mother since she was a child and became a humble gentleman who treated people generously.
He has outstanding literary talents, strong martial arts, and won the first place in the first time he participated in the martial arts, although he was only awarded a petty official of the ninth grade, but he officially entered the officialdom.
2. The ups and downs of Guo Ziyi's life: from officialdom frustration to the pacification of the Anshi Rebellion Guo Ziyi was full of ambition when she was young, but she couldn't find a place to show her in officialdom. After many years of crawling in the barracks, he did not achieve anything until he was over half a hundred years old.
In 754 BC, Guo's mother died of illness, and he resigned from his official position and returned home to observe filial piety and live a leisurely life. However, in 755 AD, the Anshi Rebellion broke out, and the counties north of the Yellow River were almost completely wiped out and thrown into the camp of the rebels.
Guo Ziyi was carving a wooden sword for her grandson at home, and when she heard the news, she immediately turned around and went back to the house to get her armor out, "What's wrong with the saint?"The person who came to report the news replied respectfully, "The Holy One is well at present, and I hope that you can lead the army to calm the war!"
Guo Ziyi's hanging heart relaxed after hearing this. Although Tang Xuanzong was fleeing in a hurry with his beloved woman at this time, Guo Ziyi was thinking about how to protect his country.
Several emperors of the Tang Dynasty, except for Tang Taizong, who fought everywhere when he fought the world, were strong and strong, and the rest of the emperor, that is, when they were vying for the throne, they met each other, but there were very few who really went to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Especially in the later period of the reign of Tang Xuanzong, the politics were corrupt, and he only knew how to be greedy for pleasure every day, so it is conceivable that there were a few generals at this time who could be pulled to the battlefield. In this situation where there were no generals available, Tang Xuanzong enabled Guo Ziyi, who was nearly sixty years old to guard filial piety at home, and he led the army to quell the Anshi Rebellion and became an important hero of the Tang Dynasty.
Guo Ziyi put on his armor and got on the horse, and was about to go to the battlefield, when his wife Wang rushed to see him off. "General, you're going to **?Wang looked at Guo Ziyi's majestic appearance and was worried.
The emperor has ordered me to go and quell the rebellion, you don't have to worry, I will be back soon. After speaking, Guo Ziyi didn't wait for Wang's response, so he rode on a war horse, took his personal servant, and rode away with a whip.
This battle was very difficult for Guo Ziyi, not only was there not enough food and grass for soldiers and horses, but also he had to deal with the emperor's suspicions and temptations. In 758 AD, Guo Ziyi united nine jiedu envoys to encircle and annihilate An Qingxu, beheading more than 70,000 rebels.
After An Qingxu was defeated, he fled into Xiangzhou City and was besieged by Guo Ziyi and others. After Guo Ziyi learned that there was a cannibalism situation in Xiangzhou City, he ordered the army to divert water. Hundreds of thousands of troops diverted water to irrigate the city of Xiangzhou, and the city was about to be breached.
At this time, Shi Siming came to the rescue with an army of 300,000, and the two sides launched a fierce battle outside Xiangzhou City. Although Shi Siming's army was numerous, the Tang army had more men and horses.
Due to the light enemy, Shi Siming was soon at a disadvantage. Guo Ziyi personally went into battle and killed the enemy troops attacking him. When the deputy general saw Guo Ziyi's performance, he despised Shi Siming in his heart, but he was blown off his horse by a sudden gale, and a sword was cut off his arm.
He shouted, "Little rabbit, dare to hurt your grandfather", and the big knife in his hand was swung in a burst, and the surrounding enemy troops were all killed. The deputy general couldn't find Guo Ziyi's position, so he could only move forward by feeling.
Guo Ziyi ordered a retreat, and the Tang troops around him surrounded him. Guo Ziyi said: "If the sky wants to save him, we can only take advantage of the situation and withdraw the troops from Mingjin!."So, the Tang army retreated and returned to Heyang.
Guo Ziyi's eunuch Yu Chaoen was jealous of his talent, reported to Tang Suzong secretly, said bad things about Guo Ziyi, and blamed Guo Ziyi for the defeat of Xiangzhou.
Tang Suzong listened to the slander, issued an edict to seize Guo Ziyi's military power, and ordered him to return to Beijing.
When Guo Ziyi was living in Beijing, the rebels captured Luoyang, and Tang Suzong was forced to recall him. After Guo Ziyi successfully recovered Hedong, Tang Dynasty Zong succeeded to the throne. Fearing that the veteran would be difficult to manage, Tang Dynasty Zong ordered Guo Ziyi to be recalled and sent him to build a mausoleum.
In the first year of the reign of Emperor Zong of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo invaded, and Guo Ziyi was once again appointed as the deputy marshal of Guannei. However, Cheng Yuanzhen's obstruction led to the loss of the best opportunity, and the Tubo attacked Chang'an.
Tang Dynasty Zong realized the importance of Guo Ziyi and appointed him to sit in Hezhong Province to defend against Tibet.
1.Guo Ziyi: 77-year-old to kill the enemy, rare courage and wisdom Guo Ziyi is a 77-year-old man, but in ancient times, when the general age could not pass the age of 40, he still insisted on going into battle to kill the enemy.
His bravery and wisdom allowed him to make great achievements after Tang Xuanzong recovered in the filial piety period. However, his success also attracted the envy and framing of some people, especially Yu Chaoen, who was beside Tang Suzong.
When Yu Chaoen was Guo Ziyi's defense against Tibet, in order to vent his personal anger, he sent someone to dig up Guo Ziyi's father's grave. When Guo Ziyi won the battle and returned to the dynasty, Tang Dynasty Zong told him about it as a joke.
After Guo Ziyi heard this, she knelt on the ground and cried, grief-stricken and said: "I have been fighting outside for so many years, and my soldiers have dug up people's ancestral graves
2.Guo Ziyi: Tolerance with generosity, strict governance of the family and the army Guo Ziyi's generosity and wisdom are not only reflected in his military talents, but also in his conduct in the world.
He was generous to outsiders, but he was very strict in governing his family and army. His sixth son, Guo Xuan, married Princess Shengping, who was the most favored by Tang Dynasty Sect. The princess has a noble status, no matter in **, she always holds a shelf, and she looks high, even Guo Ziyi's birthday is unwilling to participate.
Guo Hua was young and vigorous, and he couldn't see it, so he quarreled with the princess. However, Guo Ziyi was not angry because of this, he resolved this family dispute with a generous and tolerant attitude, and won the respect and admiration of his family.
Do you think you're great if you're a princess?" "It's amazing, what can you do with me?"Princess Shengping was so angry that she pinched her waist with her hands and said angrily. "You're always talking about your father, you know?
If it weren't for my father's unwillingness to be the emperor, how could the Li family have your current position. " "You ......You ......"Princess Shengping was so angry that she had nothing to say, and ran back to the palace in a rage.
The news of the couple's quarrel reached Guo Ziyi. As soon as he heard that his son had said such a thing, he immediately ordered him to be locked up, changed into clothes, and rushed to the palace to plead guilty.
Fortunately, Daizong did not blame him, and Guo Ziyi personally took the cane after returning home and beat Guo Yu dozens of boards mercilessly, in order to show his loyalty to the Li Tang Dynasty.
Kwok's wisdom is reflected not only in his years of combat experience, but also in his keen insight and interpersonal skills. Guo Ziyi, who retired at home in her later years, likes to hold banquets and gather with her wife and concubines.
Only when Lu Qi came to visit, he would let his wife and concubine avoid him. When the guests leave, everyone will return to the lobby to continue their happy time.
In the past, the lord never shied away from meeting our sisters, why is he so angry today?"A concubine asked. "Lu Qi is a talented man, but he is a little narrow-minded.
And he is ugly, you women like to laugh, if you see him laughing, you may be hated by him. Our children and grandchildren may have trouble in the future.
Soon after, Lu Qi was appointed prime minister, and those who had looked down on him and ridiculed him were killed by him on various charges. Only the Guo family was safe and sound, did not receive any **, and was even taken care of by Prime Minister Lu Qi.
There are many outstanding generals in history, such as Yue Fei, who served the country loyally, Han Xin, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty, and Meng Tian, who made great contributions to the unification of the Qin State, but without exception, they all died unexpectedly, and none of them enjoyed their old age in peace.
Therefore, the generals who command the side must not only have the ability to fight bravely and well, but also have an open-minded heart and the courage to humiliate themselves. Guo Ziyi knows this very well, and every time he is deprived of military power, he will hand over to the next one in detail and dutifully, and will never cause trouble to the other party because of dissatisfaction.
In order to appease the emperor's suspicious heart, Guo Ziyi began to build a large number of buildings at home and hold banquets, which made the family complain. But Tang Dynasty Sect was very satisfied with this, and he was much less wary of Guo Ziyi.
Guo Ziyi's wisdom has made the Guo family prosperous for generations.
Kwok Chi-yi's resourcefulness is worth learning from, even in a fierce environment, hard work will only put us in trouble. Only through careful observation and deep thinking can we accurately grasp the timing and become the final winner.
