Mondo History Updated on 2024-02-12

In 1279, 20,000 Mongol elite soldiers forced 100,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people of the Southern Song Dynasty into a corner of Guangdong, and the two sides had to carry out the ultimate decisive battle of national fortune in Yashan, Guangdong.

In this battle, the Great Song army and civilians commanded by Zhang Shijie collided head-on with the Mongolian iron cavalry led by Zhang Hongfan, and in the end, the Great Song Dynasty was completely defeated. Prime Minister Lu Xiufu carried the 8-year-old little emperor Song Gong Emperor Zhao Yu to jump into the sea Mingzhi, and 100,000 Song soldiers and civilians would rather die than surrender, and all of them jumped into the sea to martyrdom.

In this battle, the traitor Zhang Hongfan was in the limelight, and he won the victory as the commander of the Yuan army. After the war, he made people carve stones on Yashan - Zhang Hongfan, the general of Zhenguo, destroyed the Song Dynasty here.

This stone was later named the Gong Sin Stone, and it is now found on a large reef in the sea near Yashan in Xinhui District, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province.

In the Ming Dynasty, someone added a big "Song" character in front of Zhang Hongfan's stone carving, which became "Zhang Hongfan, the general of the Song Zhenguo, destroyed the Song Dynasty here", which vividly expressed the hatred of the Chinese children for traitors.

Zhang Hongfan, the family of the Han people of Heshuo, is an authentic Han person. Since the Tang Dynasty, the ancestors of the Zhang family have all been farming for a living. The place where he lived was the northern frontier of the Great Song Dynasty, which belonged to the junction of the Song, Jin and Liao, and the household registration of the Zhang family switched back and forth between the three kingdoms of Song, Jin and Liao.

Zhang Hongfan's father, Zhang Rou, originally also made a living as a farmer. Because at the junction of the three countries, there are not only armies fighting each other, but also bandits and bandits from time to time. In order to protect the food that she had worked so hard to plant, Zhang Rou organized a group of young and strong young people in the countryside to fight bandits and robbers.

Zhang Rou trained the militia very well, not only was he disciplined and able to fight well, but he also specialized in fighting bandits and thieves without harming his neighbors. After a long time, Zhang Rou's militia actually made the thieves frightened, and soon the reputation spread all over the eight villages, and even Miao Daorun, the envoy of the Jin State Economic Strategy, also boasted and praised.

The Mongols slowly gained power and began to throw their fists at Kim. Jin Xuanzong was forced to flee from Beijing to Kaifeng, where he encouraged local armed counterattacks as he ran. Miao Daorun thus recommended Zhang Rou as the Dingxing Order, and later promoted him to the defense envoy of Qingzhou many times.

At the critical moment when the Mongol army moved south, the troops led by Zhang Rou repeatedly made meritorious achievements, effectively delaying the progress of the Mongol army in bulldozing the Jin State, and were repeatedly rewarded and trusted by Miao Daorun and Jin Xuanzong.

Zhang Rou carefully planned to resist Mongolia, and Jia Yu suddenly took out his boss Miao Daorun. This angered Zhang Rou and vowed to avenge Lao Miao.

Just as Zhang Rou led his troops to slaughter Jia Yu on the way, he killed Cheng Biting Jin halfway and bumped into the Mongol army heading south at Langya Ridge.

The Mongols don't care what your troops are from, as long as they are not Mongols, they will all do it. As soon as the battle began, Zhang Rouma lost his front hooves and was captured alive, and he hurriedly asked the soldiers to put down the ** and surrender into the formation.

The Mongols, who drank the blood of Ru Mao, actually opened their minds this time, they accepted Zhang Rou's surrender, and allowed Zhang Rou to continue to lead the original team, but they had to turn their guns and attack the Jin Kingdom.

As long as you don't kill your head, as long as you still let you do it, then work hard. For Zhang Rou, who regards the festival as urine, what is a renegade seller, and if you have milk, you are a mother. Zhang Rou quickly changed her role and began to become a sharp blade for the Mongols to attack gold, conquering four prefectures and counties one after another. chased to the foot of Kong Mountain and split Jia Yu alive, and dug his heart to worship Miao Daorun.

Zhang Rougan's intentions, the Mongolians also treat Zhang Rou well.

In the twentieth year of Yuan Taizu (1225), Mongolia appointed Zhang Rou as the marshal of the march of a thousand households, Baozhou (now Baoding, Hebei) and other places.

In the tenth year of Yuan Taizong (1238), when Zhang Rou was 49 years old, his ninth son Zhang Hongfan was born.

There is a father who must have a son, and there is a father who does not pay attention to discipline and loyalty, Zhang Hongfan is naturally a good example. Under Zhang Rou's training, Zhang Hongfan soon emerged in the Yuan army and became a very important general of Kublai Khan.

Appreciated by his master, the traitor should be more and more courageous.

In the battle of Xiangyang when the Mongols attacked the Song Dynasty, Zhang Hongfan showed his life. not only offered plans to attack bridges, break Fancheng, and trap Xiangyang, but also led troops to fight after he was wounded. Finally, Fancheng was breached, and Niu Fu, the general of the Song army, was defeated. Then, the Mongol cavalry besieged Xiangyang, and the city was cut off from food and grass, and Lü Wenhuan was forced to surrender.

After that, the traitor Zhang Hongfan led his troops to participate in the Battle of Dingjiazhou and the Battle of Jiaoshan, both of which were victorious.

Due to Zhang Thief's outstanding achievements, the Yuan court awarded him the title of "Baturu". Faced with the reward of the imperial court, this traitor said from the bottom of his heart: "Let me lead the Mongols with a Han Chinese!" ”

In 1275, the Haidu of the Ögedai Khanate sent troops to the Western Regions and Mobei, but suffered successive defeats. At this time, the Yuan army encountered another plague in the south of the Yangtze River, which was very large. Kublai Khan wanted to withdraw his troops and accept the Southern Song Dynasty's peace proposal.

After hearing the news, Zhang Hongfan hurried to Dadu and urged Kublai Khan: "The Southern Song Dynasty is at the end of its rope, and it should first pacify Jiangnan, and then move north to fight a decisive battle with Haidu." ”

After Zhang Hongfan's hard persuasion, Kublai Khan immediately changed his mind and decided to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty first, seize the important financial and tax land in the south of the Yangtze River, store enough grain and grass, and then carry out the great cause of the westward expedition.

In 1276, Empress Dowager Xie and Emperor Gong of Song were desperate and surrendered out of the city, and the Southern Song Dynasty existed in name only. Only Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Shijie continued to resist in Jiangxi and Fujian, supporting the young emperor.

The traitor Zhang Hongfan took the initiative to ask Kublai Khan for help, hoping to command the army to go south, clear the rest of the Southern Song Dynasty, and achieve the goal of Mongolia pacifying China.

Kublai Khan summed up and let the traitors lead the troops to attack the Great Song Dynasty, which could save a lot of Mengyuan soldiers, and the traitors had a much better chance of winning than the grass tartars with developed limbs and simple brains, so he decisively agreed to Zhang Hongfan's request.

Zhang Thief thus commanded the Yuan soldiers, and launched the Battle of Yashan in 1279, burning the military camp, breaking the Song army, and the Southern Song Dynasty was completely destroyed.

The tragedy of the battle of Yashan is really tragic, the battlefield is full of corpses, blood flowed into rivers, and the sea around Yashan actually has "100,000 floating corpses"! The vast majority of them are the ** people of the Southern Song Dynasty who are unwilling to be slaves to the country. They committed suicide by throwing themselves into the sea in a tragic way to be martyred for the perishing Southern Song Dynasty. This kind of unyielding national spirit moves the heavens and the earth, and is a powerful spiritual pillar and the core of national cohesion in China.

The Battle of Yashan caused extremely serious damage to the Chinese nation.

After that, Meng Yuan not only entrenched in China for 98 years, but also carried out cruel ** and enslavement of the Chinese nation. Wherever the Yuan soldiers arrived, they must first slaughter the city and the village, carry out deterrence, and suppress the resistance of the Han people with bloody killings. In 1122, the country's population was 93.47 million, and by the beginning of 1274, the population had plummeted to 8.87 million, with a loss rate of 91%.

Meng Yuan implemented the third-class Jiujia, and made the Han nationality clear as a third-class class, which was lower than the rank of the foreign Semu people, and the Han people suffered humiliation and oppression. In addition, the nomadic people were born ignorant and barbaric, and they were incapable of developing the economy and culture at all, which caused a great regression of Chinese civilization for more than 300 years.

What's more serious is that after the Battle of Yashan, Meng Yuan fully entered the Central Plains, which gave a great reminder and encouragement to the Japanese slaves: Meng Yuan can enter China, the Manchu Qing can enter China, and we Japanese ghosts can naturally enter China. This is also where the spiritual momentum of the Japanese slaves later went all out to advocate that "there is no China after Yashan" and dared to take the risk of launching a war of aggression against China.

In the process of destroying Song Tuhua, the traitor Zhang Hongfan played a vital role. With his familiarity and understanding of the Han nationality, he is willing to act as a loyal dog of the alien race to slaughter China, and he is a traitor and thief who can never be absent in the history of Chinese crime.

Although the traitor Zhang Hongfan was loyal to his master, the master did not give this eagle dog too much grace, but gave his descendants the reward of slaughtering the family and destroying the sect.

After the death of Emperor Taiding of Yuan, the brothers of Yuan Mingzong and Yuan Wenzong competed with Emperor Tianshun for the throne, and the supporters of the two factions fought. Zhang Hongfan's grandson, Zhang Jingwu, led his militia to kill hundreds of soldiers who robbed and plundered the capital when they retreated.

If this battle was won by the Shangdu faction, Zhang Jingwu would have been rewarded for leading the crowd to kill the Dadu soldiers, who knew that in the end it was the Dadu kings faction who won the victory.

When the prince Esente led a large army to pass through Baoding, he learned that Zhang Jingwu led the crowd to kill hundreds of capital soldiers. In a fit of rage, Zhang Hongfan's five grandsons, including Zhang Jingwu, were tortured and executed, all the female dependents in the family were handed over to the Yuan army for rape and death, and all the family property was robbed. The only living mouth left by the Zhang family is Zhang Hongfan, a beautiful granddaughter, who was personally undressed and taken as a concubine after being raped in public.

Zhang Rou, Zhang Hongfan, and Zhang Qi's ancestors and grandchildren were traitors of three generations, who were born and died for Meng Yuan, but their descendants were slaughtered all over the house, which can be regarded as evil retribution.

After Emperor Yuan Shun succeeded to the throne, in order to win over the Han army "Shihou", he rehabilitated the five brothers of Zhang Jingwu and returned the family property.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved the banner of "driving out the Tartars and restoring China", and after establishing the Ming Dynasty, his anger against the traitor Zhang Hongfan to destroy Song Tuhua has not stopped. Ming Taizu once again ordered the search for Zhang Hongfan's descendants, and all those who were related to the blood of Zhang Thief were all executed, and the Zhang Thief family was completely cut and rooted.

Since then, the bloodline of the traitor Zhang Hongfan has been completely cleansed, and there is no Zhang Hongfan's genes in the world, and what Zhang Thief left behind is only the evil deeds of being a traitor and a thief in the history books.
