In the dark 135 years of Chinese history, four super-first-class military geniuses were born
People always say that heroes in troubled times, if you count the troubled times in Chinese history, it must be the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms. Several princes of the Sima family fought for the throne, and"Five nonsense".It can be said that the whole of China is already in chaos.
But it was at such times that four famous military geniuses emerged, and their presence added a touch of color to this dark period, let's see who they really are!
The first is one of the most dramatic figures in the Sixteen Kingdoms periodSchleHe went from a slave to the throne of the emperor step by step, and even today it seems that he cannot help but sigh for his life.
The founding monarch of Shile Houzhao, but who would have thought that in the beginning, Shile was nothing more than a slave who was trafficked. Shi Le was not a Han but a Qian, and it was normal to sell Hu people at that timeSo Shi Le was bought by the Western Jin Dynasty at that time in exchange for money and **.
Fortunately, Shile's master saw that Shile was not like a mortal and decided to let Shile go, and it was at this time that Shile realized the first noble person in his lifeJisangand thus began to participate in the chaotic war.
Shile also began to expand his power at this time, and soon after he raised an army with Jisang, but the power in the hands of the two was still too weak. So the two went to the Gongshi Domain. In the ensuing war, the Gongshi clan was killed, and the two had no choice but to change again.
After that, he could only come to Liu Yuan's command, and in order to get Liu Yuan's reuse, Shi Le helped him solve Zhang Fulidu, who seemed to be a hot potato all along.
It was precisely because of his actions that Liu Yuan believed in him even more, and made great contributions to the destruction of the Western Jin Dynasty in the future. He became the most important general under Liu Yuan at that time.
With Liu Yuan's ascension to the throne as emperor, Shi Le was named a general, and for a time Shi Le became a powerful minister in the court. But soon after Liu Yuan's death, the whole situation changed again.
After Liu Cong succeeded to the throne, although he was afraid of Shi Le, he was also courteous because of his power. But this was not the case after Liu Yao ascended the throne, he wanted to make a move against Shi Le, and at this time, the two sides turned against each other.
With the help of the advisers around him, Shile ascended the throne and became the most powerful force in Jiangbei in one fell swoop.
The second person to talk about is Murong Ke, as a famous general of Qianyan, he has been doing his best for Qianyan's country all his life. His life has gone through three masters, assisting the young emperor for seven years. Whether it is for the minister or for the general, Murong Ke's life has been done to the extreme.
It is unimaginable that Murong Ke had already begun to manage the army when he was fifteen years old, and when he was seventeen years old, he had already fought back and forth with the Later Zhao army on the battlefield.
Murong Ke and Shi Hu are from the same era, and Shi Hu is Shi Le's nephewAfter Shi Le's death, the emperor of Later Zhao。In fact, when Murong Ke was young, he was just a child who was not valued by his father.
In the royal family, it is actually obvious that the mother is more important than the son, Murong Ke is an example, because his mother is not favored, and even with him is not valued, but Murong Ke's ability impresses Emperor Wenming.
Murong Ke is not only very tall, but also has his own views when facing the affairs of the DPRK and China. Especially in the army, he has a different talent, so after that, Emperor Wenming decisively handed over the army to this son.
When he was twenty years old, he followed his father in the crusade against Goryeo, and Hou Yan was still very tricky in defending Liaodong. After Murong Ren's death, the entire Houyan could not find a single person to garrison Liaodong.
The end of being unmanned is to make Goryeo ready to moveMurong Ke was extremely brave and won many battles against Goryeo. Goryeo was beaten to the point that he could no longer fight back. But Hou Yan's ambitions at this time are not only this, they have also been premeditated for a long time for the Central Plains.
In the battle of the Central Plains, Murong Ke made immortal achievements. Although the battle achievements are great, and the blood of the royal family is also flowing on the body,But Murong Ke has never done anything contrary to his duty as a minister in his life. has been silently being a courtier.
He is not only a famous general of Qianyan, but also the pillar of Qianyan, after his death, the entire Qianyan began to decline.
The third one to talk about is Wang Meng, a relationship between him and Fu Jian is comparable to that of Li Shimin and Wei Zheng of Tang Taizong in later generations.
Wang Meng's background is also very badEspecially at that time, there was a Hu regime everywhere, and Wang Meng, as a Han person, was difficult to be taken seriously even if he entered the office。What has to be said here is that he chose a good monarch, which gave him the merits of half of his life.
History compares his achievements with Mr. Zhuge in history, which shows the recognition of his ability by later generations.
Although Wang Meng is from a bad background, he is full of poetry and books and is also very proficient in the art of war
It was also at this time that there were new changes in the north, and Fu Jian died and was succeeded by his son Fu Sheng. But Fu Sheng is a notoriously tyrant who kills whenever something doesn't go his way. Whether it is the minister or the palace maids around him, everyone is in danger.
Seeing that fate could take refuge in the monarch, Wang Meng chose to continue to wait, and at this time Fu Jian came to the door. The two can be said to be familiar at first sight, and after the first meeting, Wang Meng agreed to go out of the mountain to help Fu Jian.
Later, with the help of Wang Meng, Fu Jian launched a coup d'état to seize power and ascended the throne as emperor. Fu Jian can be said to have 100% trust in Wang Mengand Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei. It is precisely because of this that Wang Meng has the opportunity to perform.
Whether it is governing the country or fighting foreign wars, there is the shadow of Wang Meng, so the former Qin reached an unprecedented prosperous position for a while. The reason why later generations said that Fu Jian was the most promising for reunification was because of Wang Meng's efforts.
The last one is Murong Chui, who is Murong Ke's elder brother and the founding emperor of Houyan. His life was also extremely brilliant, unlike Murong Ke, Murong Chui began to follow his father when he was thirteen years old.
Most of the ethnic minorities are brave and good at fighting, and it can be seen even more in Murong Chui. When he was thirteen years old, he had already made military achievements, and then he accompanied the army to fight in the north and south many timesOf course, it was precisely because of this that he received his father's attention, which caused the son of the world to be dissatisfied.
This also brought about not being reused, even Murong Ke's repeated admonitions when he was dying did not let the court reuse him. In fact, it's not that you don't use it, but you don't dare to use He has been leading troops to fight since he was thirteen years old, and his reputation in the army is incomparable.
Not only did he not get important people, but he also wanted to harm him, so he had no choice but to drag his family to Fu Jian. As we all know, in the situation at that time, Fu Jian was the only one who did not discriminate against ethnic groups, and he has been trying his best to promote ethnic integration.
After the Battle of Weishui, Murong Chui covered Fu Jian's journey north to return to Luoyang. It can only be said that although the Murong family is not good in politics, it really has nothing to say in terms of personality. Even at this time, Murong Chui had already moved the idea of wanting to restore the country, but he did not make a move against Fu Jian.
In the following year, Murong Chui established the Houyan regime and officially ascended the throne as emperor.
Looking at these heroes, none of them are truly unified, but their lives are enough for future generations to commemorate and sigh, and they have created remarkable legends during the Sixteen Kingdoms period.
In the context of the convergence of various ethnic groups at that time, it was very rare to be able to achieve achievements, and their courage is still worth learning from today.
