Yue Fei, whose name is Ju Peng, was one of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty. I believe all Chinese sons and daughters are already very familiar with this hero, and their deeds need not be said. For thousands of years, historians have different opinions about the real cause of death of Yue Fei. Most people think that Qin Gui was captured by Jurchen before, surrendered to the State of Jin, and was later put back to the State of Song as a spy, and advocated peace and suppressed domestic hawkish forces during his tenure as Prime Minister of the Southern Song Dynasty. Yue Fei was a representative figure of hawks, so he was persecuted by the traitor Qin Gui, and the emperor was incompetent, which eventually destroyed this excellent general. Qin Gui was the first bad person to kill Yue Fei.
Whether Qin Gui was really an insider of the State of Jin, with the intention of destroying the Southern Song Dynasty, is impossible to prove. However, in any dynasty in China history, if Xiang's power failed to grasp the military power, its influence on the emperor was limited, and the key was the emperor's intention.
Peter said that Song Gaozong himself was not a genius master, but he was by no means a bad king. After the change of Jingkang, Xu Jin went south again, hoping to eliminate the Southern Song Dynasty after the founding of New China. At this point, Song Gaozong fled south with only one thousand Qin Bing. Just after the fall of Bianjing, the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Northern Expedition of the Second Emperor, the fall of the Central Plains, low morale, the early construction of the Southern Song Dynasty and the pursuit of nomads from all walks of life, Song Gaozong mobilized loyal opponents from all walks of life to defend the Jianghuai front in a very short time, and stabilized the situation in the Southern Song Dynasty. Did a bad king do this?
However, just as Yue Fei and others launched a massive counterattack to recover the lost land in the Central Plains, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou won the 12 gold medal and ordered the transfer of troops. Yue Fei sighed. Ten years' work was in vain? . I had to send Li back. However, things are far from over. After the troops from all walks of life return to the DPRK one after another, ZTE IV will be deprived of military power one by one. Why Yue Fei? No need? Accused of rebellion, he died tragically in Fengbo Pavilion.
Why did Song Gaozong deliberately kill Zhongliang because he didn't want to recover the Central Plains? I'm here to talk about some of my views.
At the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, Emperor Gaozong had to rely on various military forces to fight against the Jin Army and the puppet regime. When the situation was slightly stable, some generals gradually developed and strengthened in the struggle against gold, which directly threatened the dominant position of the Southern Song Dynasty. After the Jingkang Revolution and the inauguration ceremony of the second emperor in the north, Zhao established the Southern Song regime. At that time, in the eyes of many people, he was not the only thrill and was not widely expected. The real adventure is still being captured in the camp, but this is a national disaster, so he has to recommend Zhao's descendants to win the hearts of the people. His prestige may be far less than that of some generals with heavy weapons. In addition, after the mutiny of Miao and Liu, I know the danger brought by the excessive power of military commanders. So the first step is to cut off the military power and gradually take back the control of all kinds of military horses, so that soldiers will not know what to do in the future, and they will not know what to do once and for all. But Yue Fei, an ever-victorious general who can share weal and woe with the army, has won the love of soldiers and people. Even if he lost his military power, he could re-recruit his old troops and make a comeback, posing a greater threat to imperial power. In its heyday, the population of Yue Jiajun was 65,438+10,000. The head coach Yue Fei is proficient in all kinds of weapons and can bow 300 Jin, which is the highest record among soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty. There are famous soldiers such as Yang Zaixing, Yue Yun and Zhang Xi 'an (Yang Zaixing died early, Yue Yun and Zhang Xian were executed together with Yue Fei, which shows the degree of fear of the court for the key members of Yue Jiajun). This army is extremely elite, the strongest of all anti-Jin Dajun, even the most elite cavalry combination of Jurchen? Iron float map? And then what? Kidnapping horses? Hearing the news, everyone turned pale. 8 gold j issue? It's easy to shake the mountain, but difficult to shake the Yuegujun? Wailing. As the supreme commander of such an army, even if Yue Fei is loyal to his country, it is inevitable that there will be a Ministry to add his yellow robe in the future. As the saying goes, Zhao Kuangyin, the ancestor of Emperor Gaozong, seized power in this way. Taking history as a mirror, Zhao Gou had to kill Yue Fei, which could eliminate the future trouble forever and deter other generals with the army. It was a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
Secondly, since ancient times, the unification of China has been from north to south, at least before the Southern Song Dynasty. There are many cavalry in the north and many water troops in the south. The fighting capacity of the southern army on land is far less than that of the northern cavalry. The strength of the nomadic regime in the north has always been very strong. It took 1 1 year for the Jurchen state to destroy Liao (the Jurchen nationality had fewer troops at the beginning), and it took only two years to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty, which shows its strong combat effectiveness. Even if military talents such as Yue Fei, Wu Jie, Han Shizhong and others appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty, the victory on the local battlefield would not change the situation that Jin was strong and Song was weak. The Central Plains has a large population and is rich and prosperous. Is it comparable to Jiangnan? Moreover, the northeast region is a place where Jurchen thrives, with fierce folk customs and high martial arts, which continuously transports tigers and wolves to the state of Jin. It can be said that before the rise of Mongolia, the Jurchen nationality was an absolute power in Asia. As the saying goes, one careless move will lose the game, and Song Gaozong is very aware of the strength comparison between the two sides. For an emperor with knowledge but no ambition, talent and no virtue, it is absolutely impossible to gamble on such a big gamble. Therefore, Emperor Gaozong had no intention of recovering the Central Plains from the Northern Expedition, but just wanted to settle down and make peace with the State of Jin to protect himself. In foreign strategy, we should adhere to the policy of defending the north and expanding the south, and in internal strategy, we should adhere to the top-down strategy. However, Yue Fei always insisted on the military action of the Northern Expedition, which obviously violated the sacred will. The Northern Expedition needs a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, which is unbearable for a weak country that has just experienced the pain of national subjugation and has just been established. Therefore, we had to seize the military power of Yue first, and then murder it, so as to dispel the idea of the Northern Expedition of other main battle generals.
Third, during the Southern Song Dynasty, Yue Fei was good at attacking, while others were good at defending. As an emperor with normal thinking, Emperor Gaozong could not want to recover the Central Plains, so he expanded his territory and his national strength was limited. At the beginning, Yue Fei was only used to resist the State of Jin, and there was no intention of the Northern Expedition. However, the idea of Yue Fei's death is: recover the Central Plains, go straight to Huanglong and welcome the return of Shuangsheng! With this alone, he will die. Why? The emperor didn't get much support in the eyes of the people, and even got one? The fugitive emperor? With this nickname, more and more people still miss Emperor Qin Hui who suffered in Guo Xu. Nomads from the siege of Tokyo, Song Qinzong just ordered Zhao Gou, Kang Wang to Xu Jinguo for peace, but no real power. After the change of Jingkang, Qin Hui was exiled, and Zhao Gou was appointed as the marshal of Hebei military forces without the authorization of the emperor. Besides, he is not Chu Jun, so there is no reason to directly claim that the Emperor is the enemy of Xu Jinguo. This obviously belongs to a special usurper and should be beheaded according to the law. Those who resolutely resisted the gold in the early stage put the second emperor in a more dangerous situation, which has made the brothers and sisters who are hostages gnash their teeth. If Yue Fei can really completely defeat Xu Jin, recover the Central Plains, and welcome back the Double Sage, can the throne of Gao Canzong still be preserved? Losing the throne of the emperor is a trivial matter, and losing your head is probably a major event. Perhaps this is what Zhao Gou really thought. He got rid of the second emperor by Xu Jinguo's hand and became the emperor himself. Yue Fei is brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, but he doesn't know how to cater to the imperial edict politically. This is the common fault of most warrior generals in ancient China, and it is also an important reason for his murder.
Fourth, Yue Fei has achieved some success on the battlefield, gained the initial trust of Emperor Gaozong, and may be a little proud in his heart. He even suggested that Emperor Gaozong should do a great thing for the prince. According to the rules formulated by North Korea, military commanders should not interfere in state affairs. In the view of Emperor Gaozong, this is a disloyal idea. In addition, Emperor Gaozong had only one son, who died in his early years. He was so scared that he lost his fertility on his way to the south. This is a secret, and being asked about the pain by Yue Fei will certainly not make Yue Fei feel better. The establishment of the national treasury is an important event for the emperor's old son, which has been extremely difficult to deal with since ancient times. Otherwise, there will be a tragic scene of swords and swords and rivers of blood. Unless the emperor intends to let ministers discuss this matter openly, he should make plans early. Otherwise, any foreign minister general who asks the emperor privately about this matter will arouse the emperor's deep suspicion. I'm afraid this is not what Yue Fei can think of. Of course, this is not to say that Yue Fei is stupid, but that he lacks political sensitivity. A brave general thinks most about how to win on the battlefield, and an emperor thinks more about how to keep the throne, how to keep the country and how to continue his blood. This is the most concerned issue for a senior politician. Yue Fei actually died of political murder.
Fifth, in the seventh year of Shaoxing, Emperor Gaozong relieved Liu Guangshi, one of ZTE's four generals, and wanted to put Huaixi's army under Yue Fei's command. Yue Fei was overjoyed and immediately proposed the Northern Expedition, which made the emperor taboo. Emperor Gaozong temporarily changed his mind and refused to fulfill his promise. In a rage, Yue Fei angrily left Ezhou, where our army was stationed, thinking that mother's filial piety originated from Lushan Mountain. This behavior is obviously threatening the monarch. As a general with a unified army, it is a capital crime to go AWOL during the war. At that time, the threat of Xu Jin was still there. Once 8 jin j south again, the consequence is unimaginable. The emperor had to issue three more imperial edicts to urge him to go down the mountain. In June, Yue Fei returned to the emperor to confess his sins, and the emperor took Mao as his successor. The only person who broke my law was Jianer? Words are precepts, but words are hidden dangers. In the first month of the 11th year of Shao Dynasty, Xu Jin General Wu Shu led more than 654.38 million people to make a comeback, and ordered Yue Fei to lead an army to reinforce Huaixi. However, before Yue Fei's reinforcements arrived at the battlefield, the Huaixi army had already defeated the nomads from the army. Zhang Jun, the commander in chief, wanted to keep the victory for himself, so he sent Yue Fei back to the army. Unexpectedly, 8 jin j captured Bozhou again, hitting Yang Cunzhong and Wang Dejun hard. When Yue Fei led the army again, 8 Jin Army had safely crossed Huaibei. Yue is famous for his good use of troops. These two aid actions to Huaixi were slow and delayed the fighter plane, which was a military mistake and needed to be convicted according to law. Among them, Yue Fei must be dissatisfied with Emperor Gaozong's refusal to command the troops in Huaixi and obstruct the Northern Expedition. This incident caused Zhang Jun's extreme dissatisfaction with Yue Fei, making Zhang Jun one of the masterminds who framed Yue Fei in the future (by the way, Zhang Jun, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and Liu Guangshi are also called the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, and they have considerable real power and great voice in front of the Emperor and Qin Gui).
From this point of view, it was not the emperor who was fatuous and treacherous at that time, but the real power was firmly in the hands of Emperor Gaozong. In fact, Yue Fei doesn't know how to cater to the above meaning, and a short trip will make a lasting regret. The feudal society was hierarchical, and the emperor's will was the law. As courtiers, only obedience, not resistance. Even if this will is obviously wrong, we must resolutely carry it out.
Yue Fei had 65,438+Wan Yuejia Changsheng Jun, a warrior like a cloud, and fought abroad all the year round. If you want to rebel, it's a piece of cake. How to control the weak Southern Song Dynasty? However, after winning the 12 gold medal, knowing that the trip was full of dangers, Yue Fei decided to dispatch troops without hesitation, which shows that he had no intention to run counter to it. Hearing this, the people stopped in front of the horse and advised Yue Fei not to go back to the south. So fierce, the so-called will be outside, and your life will not be affected. Besides, with Yue Fei gone, the Central Plains has recovered its homeland and will fall into the enemy's hands again. In the future, the people will be madly retaliated by the nomads from the army for subsidizing Yue Jun.. Yue Fei was impatient and showed the people the imperial edict, so he cried and shook the world. Yue Fei was concerned about the people and decided to stay in the army for five days and let the people move south. He deliberately said that he would cross the Yellow River to attack Xu Jin the next day. Wu Shu, the head coach of 8 Jin Army, was shocked by this news, so he led his troops back to the north. At this point, a scholar of * * * galloped to catch up with Wu Shu and told him that Yue Feijun had retreated and Wu Shu had gone south again. The land recovered by Yue Fei in the Central Plains fell back into the hands of Jin people. On the way back, Yue Fei kept looking at his native land in the north, and his feelings of impatience, loss and resentment were deeply engraved on his face. It's a lyric in "Loyalty to the Country": Horseshoe goes south, people look north! When Yue Fei heard the news of defeat from Song Jun in the Central Plains, he could only sigh: all the counties he acquired will be closed once and for all! Jiangshan country is difficult to revive! Gankun world, there is no reason to reply!
After the generals returned to Lin 'an, Emperor Gaozong immediately deprived Yue Fei, Zhang Jun and Han Shizhong of their military power, and the army under the jurisdiction of the three generals only obeyed the emperor from now on. Soon, Emperor Gaozong instructed Zhang Jun, Wan Sixie and others to impeach Yue Fei, caught him absent without leave, and went to Lushan Mountain privately, making a scene in Huaixi and failing to reinforce him in time, and coerced Yue Fei to falsely accuse Yue Fei of rebellion and put him into Dali Temple for trial. In the suggestion, Cheng interrogated many times, but found no evidence of Yue Fei's rebellion. Loyal to the country? In two words, he knew that he was innocent, argued with reason, and told him that the matter was sacred and inviolable. He was angry and refused to retry the case from now on. Qin Gui invited the emperor to change his best friend, Wan Sixie, to serve as an imperial adviser and forge unjust imprisonment. Yue Fei was tortured in prison and wrote painfully? It's dawn! It's dawn! ? Eight big characters.
1 142, Yue Fei was strangled by the jailer in Dali Temple Prison at the age of 39. This is the end of the poor generation of great stars. His merits and demerits have been commented by later generations, so there is no need to say more here.
Twenty years later, Xiao Zong acceded to the throne, wrote to Yue Fei, chased the king of Hubei and killed Wu Mu! And set up a temple in Wuchang, Hubei Province, which is known for its loyalty and courage.
100 years later, when Lu Xiufu and Zhao Min, the last little emperor in the Southern Song Dynasty, jumped into the sea together, he was still thinking about Yue Fei, a national hero in the early Southern Song Dynasty.

More than 800 years later, a scholar named Meng Xing cried uncontrollably at his computer desk, for Betty Wong, for this passionate man who cares about his motherland!
