Chapter 694: Aftermath (15)
Does Strategist Matter? Of course, it is extremely important. However, the real historical strategists are not as prominent as they are in the romance of the novel, and their role is not as high as imagined, and they are basically the role of staff officers who fill in the gaps.
Looking at history, how many famous strategists are there? Don't talk about Zhuge Liang, it's just a mythologized character in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the real history of Zhuge Liang actually started as the main book, and later got mixed up with the position of the prime minister of Shu Han because of his good logistics ability.
In real history, each famous general is a general with strategic talent, such as Wei Qing in the Western Han Dynasty, Zhou Yu in the Three Kingdoms period, Hengwen in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Northern Expedition, and so on.
After Confucianism came to power, the Chinese ruling class had a problem, that is, they particularly looked down on pure military generals, and all literate military generals who did something commendable would be given the title of "Confucian general". Then since Sima Qian was stabbed, there is no pure historian in Huaxia, who has done something admirable will exaggerate at least a hundred times and record it in history, and especially like to press Zhang San's things on Li Si's head, and that Li Si is definitely a member of Confucianism, it's just ahhhhhhhhhhh
"How does history record Lonely?" Lu Zhe laughed dumbly.
History is a little, not to mention that Lu Zhe only did something that he noticed that there might be a plague siege in Linzi but did not attack, he just brutally slaughtered so many places, and then chose a region to kill for a year and a half, waiting for him to really unify the world and sit on the country, and the Lu family will sit on the country for hundreds of years, so even if his generation is truthfully recorded in history, his descendants will beautify history, and in the record of history, Lu Zhe, as the founding emperor, will definitely be a great, bright and correct ancestor or something.
Misunderstand. In the history of China, as long as the local ethnic groups in China are in power, except for those few hypocritical guys, otherwise what the emperor did is recorded, no matter how much the emperor doesn't like it, he doesn't have the face to tamper with, only when a foreign race rules China, he will do that kind of shameless thing.
So there is a basis for saying that, for example, Liu Bang did not tamper with his background as a gangster, and in the "My Qing Dynasty" period, he burned books to make four libraries of books, engaged in literary prisons, and made out all the old people. The huge gap is laid out.
Under the reminder of his uncle and grandson, Lu Zhe understood that the historian who still existed would truthfully record the "historical events" that happened, and it seemed that Lu Zhe wanted to change a word recorded by the historian, unless the historian was killed, otherwise the historian could not compromise.
It really seems to be like this, the bones of the historians have been very hard until before the Wuhu Chaohua, it is the orthodox Chinese ethnic group of the Wuhu Chaohua that is about to be slaughtered by foreign races, and the bloodline of the historians who have been inherited for thousands of years is interrupted, and those historians behind them are no longer orthodox historical historians. Aren't they two different things?
"......" Lu Zhe hurriedly thought about what he had done, and was relieved when he thought about it, he didn't seem to have done anything too hurtful? Of course, except that he was about to kill all the tribes in Baiyue. But those martial arts that can only be regarded as contributing to the absolute brilliance of the race, right?
Linzi was besieged, and the order given by LΓΌ Zhe was that no matter the soldiers and civilians fled, the Han army would carry out absolute isolation and sanitary cleaning. Wait for the end of the one-month quarantine period to confirm that they are not sick before deciding whether to lock up or release them according to their status.
The king of Qi is the orthodox force of the Qi country. They seem to have made up their minds to resist to the end? Lu Zhe sent several waves of envoys to persuade him to surrender, and he could still be sent out of the city as a gift, and the last time was when the field volunteered to persuade him to surrender, and the people brought by the field came back alive, and the head of the field was back but the body was left in the palace of Linzi.
On the thirty-third day of the siege that LΓΌ Zhe personally led his people, the final battle report was sent from the Jishui line, and the battle there ended with the complete destruction of the Donghu people and the surrender of a part of the Yan army and most of the Chen Sheng army.
In this month, not a single counterattack on Linzi City occurred, which confirmed the uniqueness of the oath of King Danwo of Qi to die with the city in the city.
As the ruler of Qi, Wang Dan did not lead the army to counterattack, but the people who escaped from Linzi City were a little terrifying, and the number of people who were currently isolated in the camp outside the city has exceeded 170,000. Among the 170,000 people, only about 10,000 were in the position of Qian, and the rest were all officers in the Qi army sequence, and among the 160,000 or so Qi army officers, there were more than 3,000 officers above the rank of military marquis, and these people had as many as 2,000 Chinese officers.
"Qi Wangdan is going to self-immolate." Zhang Liang said to Lu Zhe with great certainty.
Of course, Zhang Liang didn't arrange any spies in the city, who would dare to enter Linzi City, which was smelly and really broke out? Even the spies sent by Lu Zhe withdrew. He drew some details from some officials who had surrendered out of the city and were quarantined, and only then did he guess the judgment that Qi Wang Dan was going to self-immolate.
There are no more than 10,000 living people in Linzi City, and most of the Qi troops who left the city were ordered by the ruling class to surrender out of the city, Lu Zhe agreed with Zhang Liang's guess, even if the Qi Wang Dan knew that the situation was irreversible and did not intend to surrender, so as the last dignity of the king must always choose a decent way to die.
The king's self-immolation and death is a dignified and dignified way to say goodbye, there was a martyred king of Shang in the past, this has happened, and there is also a late Tang Emperor Li Congke who has not happened.
is also because of the relationship between romance and historical falsification, the Shang Dynasty Emperor Xin, who is not bad, was distorted into a good-for-nothing king, and then the Xia Ke of the Ji Zhou Dynasty was covered, and even the stain of the rebellion of the person who decided to rebel despite his father's imprisonment was also infinitely reduced and covered; Later Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Congke......
When a thick black smoke rose in the direction of the palace in the city, Lu Zhe, who had been reported, came out of the military tent, and for a moment he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
A ruler who is determined to die for his country, no matter how unbearable he was in his lifetime, has the courage to accompany his country to its demise with his own life, which is an admirable thing. It's better than a nation perishing and a king trying to survive like a dog, isn't it?
And it seems that whether it is in this historical version of Lu Zhe or the original historical version, Tian Dan, the king of Qi, is the kind of king with backbone. In the history of the original, Tian Dan, the king of Qi, died in the battle with Zhang Han.
"Wang, Tian Shi, Tian Heng, Tian Guang...... When the twenty-three clans were out of the city," the uncle ran back panting, "and there are three thousand and seven people including them who ask for surrender. β
Tian Heng didn't choose to die with Tian Dan, the king of Qi?
Tian Shi seems to be the prince of Qi State?
Lu Zhe looked at the thick black smoke rising from Linzi City with some distraction: "Send someone to confirm whether the black smoke is coming out of the (Qi) Palace." Then, he turned his head to look at his uncle and asked, "What else is going on?" β
Uncle Sun Tong said: "Tian Shi carries the seal of the Qi royal family, the map of the country, and the roster of 100 officials......
According to reason, as long as a certain royal family presents a seal, map, and official list, it is just that the king of the victorious side is not there, and if the king of the victorious side is present, it should be accepted by the king of the victorious side himself.
Lu Zhe saw Shusun Tong stop in the middle of speaking, and looked at him with that expectant gaze, he nodded: "Arrange it, pay special attention to whether those sects carry weapons or hide daggers or anything." β
No one laughed at Lu Zhe's caution, whether on the surface or in his heart, no one laughed at him. As a king, you must know how to protect yourself, especially under the premise that the Qi State is finished and the main force of the Yan State is either surrendered or trapped in the Qin land, the Han State is about to occupy the territory except for the Qin State and the Zhao State, and the unification of the world will be completed immediately, no matter how careful you are, it is not wrong.
Ordering the guards and armor, Lu Zhe called a group of civil and military officials, and the group of people waited for the mighty and went to the west gate of Linzi.
Outside the west gate of Linzi, a group of Qi civil and military officers or soldiers led by Tian Shi stood in a small phalanx, surrounded by densely watched Han soldiers.
From a distance, what Lu Zhe saw was a large white figure, he rode on the war horse and twisted his body slightly, and said to Ji Bu, who was also riding a war horse and following behind: "It seems that King Dan of Qi really burned himself and died for the country." β
Ji Bu kept nodding: "What the king said," he paused and sighed: "After the restoration of the Qi State, the King of Qi swore that there would never be another thing of surrendering without a fight, and if the country was not protected, he would inevitably be martyred, he ...... It really did. β
"Martyrdom as a king, this kind of thing doesn't happen much even in history," Shusun Tong had a strange face: "During the period when Qin ruled the world, there were martyrs in China, but there was no king martyrdom, we ......" He cautiously glanced at Lu Zhe's back: "King Qi was martyred, I hope it will not be rumored that my king and my army are brutal, otherwise it will ......"
Lu Zhe glanced at Shusun Tong, and it was clear that Shusun Tong was reminding that it was best to be graceful during the surrender ceremony, and he also reminded that he could give good treatment after the surrender of the Qi clan, so that the brutal remarks could not stand.
Among the people who followed Lu Zhe to surrender were Tian An, Tian Jiao and other Qi clansmen, as well as people from Wei and Han such as Wei Qi, King of Wei, and Han Cheng, King of Han.
Lu Zhe likes to ride horses, but Wei Wangji and Han Wangcheng can't withstand this kind of toss, their cars are relatively close, and they are still talking at the beginning of the way, and when they see the group of people who finally went out of the city and surrendered in Qi, they calmed down in white plain clothes, although they still had a smile on their faces, but no matter how they looked at it, they didn't smile so naturally......
