Wei Qing experienced the Jianyuan Spring in his early years. Wei Qing's half-sister, Wei Zifu, was loved by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. She stopped by Princess Pingyang's house and brought it back to the palace. Wei Qing, who once rode a slave in Princess Pingyang (as a slave as a cavalry attendant), went to Zhang Jian Palace.
Soon, Wei Qing was secretly arrested and someone tried to kill him. Poor Wei Qing, who has just seen the dignity and splendor of the royal family, is going to be killed. Wei Qing was in danger, and the dawn suddenly appeared in the gloomy prison. It turned out to be his good friend Gongsun 'ao. Gongsun 'ao is the riding lang of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Wei Qing entered the palace, two people of similar age, and have a common language, go close. Maybe I couldn't find Wei Qing on horseback, or maybe my brothers who visited the palace found the clue. Without hesitation, Gongsun Aoyi led several strong men to the prison room and rescued Wei Qing.
Wei Qing is just an ordinary attendant of Zhang Jian Palace. He is honest. Who can he offend? Who dares to kill the younger brother of the Emperor's beloved Princess Wei Zifu? If Wei Qing is killed, who will suffer the most? His own sister Wei Zifu, of course! So, who wants Wei Zifu to suffer the most? Of course, there is Queen Chen Ajiao who competes with Wei Zifu, and Chen Ajiao's domineering mother Liu Pu princess royal!
Wei Qing was unconsciously involved in a harem dispute: Wei Zifu entered the palace, was favored, and was pregnant, which made Queen Chen Ajiao jealous, but she couldn't start. If it is in Princess Pingyang's house, princess royal may not be blatant; Wei Qing is now in princess royal Palace, so he can use his fists. (The imperial concubine heard of Wei Zifu's luck and was jealous of it, which made people catch green. When I was young, I built a chapter for things and was unknown. Princess royal is a prisoner and wants to kill him.
Strangely, after being imprisoned, Wei Qing showed superhuman tolerance and generosity. Even after the official worship the general, Wei Qing won't say anything. It's a matter of life and death, but it's natural for Wei Qing to adopt a "cold treatment". Why is this? Is it "revenge of a gentleman, ten years is not too late", or is it pure cowardly peace? In fact, Wei Qing does not want to retaliate against each other, nor is it a frightened bird; Everything comes from my own helplessness and inferiority.
A person's personality is greatly influenced by his childhood environment. For example, although Liu Bang became emperor, he still couldn't get rid of the habit of being a hooligan in his early years and called names when he spoke. What kind of life background did Wei Qing have, which influenced his attitude towards life?
Wei Qing comes first, asshole. Wei Qing was born in Zhongqing, Pingyang (now Linfen, Shanxi). It turns out that his surname is not Wei, but his father is a local county magistrate. When he was sent to work at the home of Emperor Wu's sister Pingyang Hou, he had an affair with Pingyang Hou's maid. This handmaid is said to be "the concubine" in Biography of General Wei in Historical Records and "the wife of Wei, a boy" in Biography of Han Weiqing and Huo Qubing. "Hou concubine" and "home boy" have the same meaning, that is, they are servants of Princess Pingyang's family.
Wei Qing is the illegitimate child of He and should have been surnamed Zheng. Because the half-sister Wei Zifu was favored by the emperor, Wei Qing changed her father's "Zheng" to her mother's "Wei" (and her sister Wei Zifu was blessed from Princess Pingyang's house, so she changed her surname to Wei. )。 Wei Yan has six children: the eldest daughter Wei Junru, the second daughter Wei Xiaoer, the third daughter Wei Zifu, the eldest son Wei Changjun, the second son Wei Qing and one Wei Buguang. In the early years, the Wei family was too poor to open a pot. Helpless, I had to send Wei Qing to his biological father Ji Zheng's home. Of course, Ji Zheng's legally married wife has a bad opinion of Wei Qing. It was Ji Zheng who derailed himself first. Knowing that he was indefensible, he had to let his doll go up the mountain to herd sheep. Wei Qing's brothers and sisters also looked down on him, bossing him around and bullying him in every way. Mom can't afford it, but dad doesn't love it. Wei Qing, an illegitimate child, was strong and precocious from then on, and developed a character of modesty and forbearance.
Second, ride a slave.
Wei Qing returned to Princess Pingyang as an adult and became a slave of Princess Pingyang. He is still a slave. However, Wei Qing's status as a slave rider also brought him opportunities: First, his necessary martial arts and superb riding skills enabled him to serve as a general in the future. Second, Princess Pingyang knew him so well that she chose Wei Qing when she remarried.
Of course, what really changed the fate of Wei Qing's life was that her sister Wei Zifu was elected to the palace by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Teenagers are bumpy and opportunities are bumpy. Besides, he is a child who has known high and low since he was a child. In his heart, there is always a sincere and fearful gratitude-thank God, thank the emperor.
Wei Qing's achievements: He went straight to Liuzhou and killed 700 Huns (he won the first prize in Liuzhou, 700). This is the first achievement! Killing the enemy is not much, but it is of great significance.
First, shock. Wei Qing's record is not brilliant; But it was a great shock to the Huns. Although there were conflicts between Han and Hungary before, they all fought on the border of the Han Dynasty, and the Han army never went deep into the hinterland of Xiongnu. This time, Wei Qing went to Longcheng to attack the court of Xiongnu. This is a very disturbing signal to the Xiongnu: the hinterland of Xiongnu, which was originally safe, may also be frequented by the Han army in the future-the entire territory of Xiongnu is no longer safe.
Second, anger. Longcheng is the Wang Ting where the Huns worship the ancestors of heaven and earth and meet the tribes. It is also a political center and a religious shrine. So Wei Qing shocked the Huns and made them extremely angry. The expansion of the war is inevitable.
Third, revenge. That autumn, the Huns invaded the border county several times in order to humiliate Xuelong City. Han Anguo, a veteran of the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was urgently transferred to the General of Materials and was stationed in Yuyang County. In the second year (BC 128, the first year of yuanshuo), Wei Zifu gave birth to Herry Liu, the eldest son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and Wei Zifu was promoted to queen. In the autumn of that year, Wei Qing rode a chariot as a general and led 30,000 cavalry from Yanmen to the Great Wall. General Li Xi went to the Great Wall from generation to generation to attack the Huns. Wei Qing killed thousands of people. (General Wei Qing rode thirty thousand out of the Wild Goose Gate, and General Li Xi rode out; Green beheaded thousands of people. ) History is called "The Battle of Wild Goose Gate". It is worth noting that this time Emperor Wu only sent Wei Qing and Li Xi; Old generals like Li Guang are useless. In the Battle of Dragon City, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used Wei Qing for the first time, but he still had doubts about his talents. In the allocation of troops to Wei Qing, Li Guang, Gongsun Ao and Gongsun He, Liang Wudi is 10,000 each. In the Battle of Wild Goose Gate, Emperor Wu only sent Wei Qing and Li Xi to the war; Moreover, the army led by Wei Qing increased from 10,000 in that year to 30,000; Li Xi is just Wei Qing's lieutenant. This change shows that Emperor Wu's trust in Wei Qing has greatly improved!
The Battle of Wild Goose Gate attracted even greater revenge from Huns. Xiongnu invaded on a large scale and killed the western Liaoning satrap; In Yanmen, thousands of people were killed and captured. Just over a month, Xiongnu invaded Shanggu and Yuyang again.
Wei Qing was born as a slave owner, had little education and read many art books. He worked with the famous soldiers of the older generation, Han Anguo and Li Guang, and the young generals of his peers, Gongsun He and Gong. Why does Wei Qing always win when others fail one after another?
On foresight and strategizing, Wei Qing is inferior to Han Anguo; On the battlefield, Wei Qing is not as experienced as Li Guang. However, Han Anguo died of depression, Li Guang came back from the dead and was redeemed as a civilian, and only the young Wei Qing got good news frequently. There are three reasons: first, talent. Wei Qing itself has the talent of a general, and he can make contributions to every attack. Then Sima Guang concluded: The world is served by known people. Second, the times. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the strategy of the Han Dynasty to Hungary changed from passive defense since the founding of the People's Republic of China to active attack in thousands of miles, and turned into mobile operations of large-scale cavalry regiments. Under the personal deployment of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing became proficient in the new combat mode. This is an era that needs heroes, and Wei Qingsheng is at the right time. Third, luck. Wei Qing's greatest luck is to get a "token" to lead troops to fight. Wei Qing has never been to the battlefield, but because of her sister's love, she is taken special care of. Without Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing had no chance to become a famous anti-Hungarian.
