035 Chess reveals why a Han Chinese in Han Derang can be buried in the imperial tomb of Qidan.

When the Northern Song Dynasty confronted the Liao country, Xiao, the "ambassador of Bei Tang" and "Prime Minister of the North" of the Liao country, had three daughters, the youngest of whom was nicknamed "the cleverest and most beautiful".

My father visited their boudoir one day and found that the boudoir in Xiao Chuo was the cleanest, with clean windows and everything in good order. Nomads in the north are uninhibited, and household items are usually put away when they are used. Xiaowen suddenly saw her little daughter's room so clean and tidy, and couldn't help getting excited. She predicted on the spot that one day she would become a great device.

In ancient China, both the Han nationality and the surrounding ethnic minorities always preferred sons to daughters. When girls grow up, more than 90% will find a husband to marry and have children, raise children, do housework and live a lifetime.

Wen predicted that her daughter would become a great weapon. What kind of great weapon can she be?

Xiaowen is engaged to Xiaoyan, a minor. Xiao Yanyan's husband Han Derang is not married. He is the son of Han Kuangsi and lives in Nanjing, Liao country.

Han's father, Han Zhigu, was originally a minister of the Northern Han Dynasty in the Central Plains, and was later brought to Liao by Lu Ye Deguang, the founding emperor of Liao. He is a passive immigrant.

Although Han Kuang-si has a great position, he is a Han Chinese after all, and there is still a gap between him and Liao people. His son's future may not be very good.

Xiaoyan's later life is like a pool of clear and bright water. However, Xiao's prediction seems to be valid. Han Derang, the future son-in-law, has grown up, and she is somewhat "outstanding".

In the first year of Ganheng in Liao Dynasty, Zhao Guangyi and Song Taizong made a large-scale northern expedition. Song Jun was ferocious, swept along the road, and suddenly came to Youdu Building.

This Yudufu is now Beijing, which was designated as Nanjing by Liao State at that time. Han Derang's father, Han Kuangsi, is the biggest immortal in Nanjing Youzhou, Liao country.

Gates' enemies, Song Jun and Han Derang, are not afraid at all. They led the troops out of the city to meet the enemy, made meritorious military service, and were awarded "Liaoning Province".

From then on, in the eyes of Emperor Yeluxian, the official position became bigger and bigger, reaching the level of "the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty". It has entered the management of the Liao court and was named "Dechang" by the emperor Ye Luxian.

Han Derang became the most powerful official in Liao Dynasty. The son-in-law has ambition, and the daughter enjoys happiness! However, Xiaoman Yanyan did not marry Han Derang.

Xiaoyan's marriage is more promising than Han Derang's. -That man is Yeluxian, the supreme leader of Liao, and the emperor.

Before they got married, Xiao Yanyan and Han Derang were chosen as concubines by Emperor Yeluxian of Jing Zong and soon became queens.

In the third year of his reign, he overwhelmed everyone and gave birth to a son named Hexian.

Needless to say, Xiao Yanyan's position in the heart of Emperor Yeluxian of Jing Zong is more important.

In Historical Records, Ye even told historians that the word "I" or "Yu" should be used to write the queen's words.

Don't look at this order. The meaning behind this order is that Xiao Yanyan can exercise power on behalf of the emperor.

In 982 AD, the Liao Dynasty worked for four years, and the seriously ill emperor Ye died at the age of 35.

At the age of 30, Xiao Yanyan was promoted from the empress dowager to the empress dowager. Only his 12-year-old son, Xu, succeeded to the throne.

The arrogance of the Liao royal family seriously threatened the security of the imperial court.

Xiaoyan was so scared that she cried in the palace and said, "The mother is weak, the family is strong, and the border defense is not perfect. How do we spend this day? "

At this point, I have been in Liao's senior position. Knowing the queen mother's worry, he patted his chest and replied, "As long as you are willing to trust me and listen to me, everything will be fine."

When she saw the brave man who almost became her husband stand up and speak, she was very happy and asked the manager to stay in the hospital to ensure the safety of herself and her son Lu Xu.

Later, Han Derang was allowed to participate in military and political affairs and make decisions.

In the third year of Luye Longxu in Liao Dynasty, Han Derang became the most influential figure in the decision-making level of Liao Dynasty.

Han Derang is really great. He personally led the army and defeated the Northern Expedition in the Northern Song Dynasty. He was called "King Chu" and was immediately called "King Chu".

Xiaoyan was very grateful to this once nominal "husband" and said to him privately, "In the end, you and I both left each other behind. The first emperor died. I am engaged to you as a wife, but now I am willing to start over. In this way, the emperor today is your son.

Han Derang took it with a smile and went in and out of Xiao Yan's tent without fear.

Han Xiao eats at the same table, sleeps in the same bed and loves each other.

Xu also promised his half-father.

In the 12th year of reunification, Han Derang was appointed as "Prime Minister of Beiyang Government" and "Special Envoy of Tang Tang". Soon, he was named "Tang Dynasty North Ambassador", worshipped as "Prime Minister" and was named "King of Qi".

At this point, he led the Privy Council of the North and South Houses and integrated the military and political power of the Liao Dynasty and the Han Dynasty.

The rapid development of this relationship is not only the power of love, but also because Xiao Yanyan firmly believes that this man named Han Derang can not only fight, but also has absolute dependence in all aspects.

Although the events between them are swaggering, the nomadic people in Liao country are more enlightened, and people with vision are not without them. There was a lot of talk outside the palace, and many ministers were very angry. They all want to make trouble for this Han Xiaozi.

Even in the village, when it comes to delivering water to widows, many of them are still taboo. In the face of other people's provocation, most people avoid it. But this Han Derang is really not an ordinary person. Everyone followed his predecessor with an unusually high profile. Not only do they often declare themselves with great fanfare, but they also dare to find another project. They are also blocked by water, and they firmly reserve the right to defend themselves and fight back.

It is particularly worth mentioning that Hu in Luye is also a famous minister in Liao Dynasty and belongs to the young diligent school of the royal family. Therefore, Han Derang and I have discussed our work and talked about the private life between Han Derang and Xiao Taihou. As a result, he flew into a rage on the spot, grabbed a big iron frame and smashed the pillars of the Liao royal family into brains.

What is the nature of this matter in Liao country? Let's imagine boldly: What would it be like if Zeng Guofan in the Cixi era suddenly flew into a rage in the court one day and hit Prince Gong on the head?

At that time, in Liao country, the pot naturally exploded, but Xiao Taihou was able to suppress it, so it was suppressed reasonably. In other words, the victim was buried. The mood of the royal family in Liao Dynasty is said to be very "stable".

Naturally, the stable royal compatriots don't want to let go. Seeing this fellow Han Derang is too hard, he found that one-on-one hit is eighty percent. Then let's play wolf tactics together. Once the royal family played polo, several generals cooperated closely and fouled maliciously. Han Derang was thrown to the ground by a horse on the spot, and his face was black and blue: There are no bones here, but someone attacked me.

This Han Derang is also a person, one by one, one by one. Roll up your sleeves and fight with these bad boys at once. Finally, a famous player is a big player. He called several times but was not blown by the wind.

However, Xiao Taihou's mood is completely unstable. He flew into a rage on the spot and decisively sent guards to stop the fight. Then he dragged the man who knocked down Han Derang out and cut off his head on the spot. Fans of the Qing Palace Opera can automatically compensate for the explosion of this incident: What would happen if Cixi suddenly pulled Zai Feng out and chopped her up?

After these two events, the impact may be great. From then on, wherever Han Derang went, he always got flowers, applause and friendly smiling faces. Everyone in Luye's family knows that this Han Chinese is the first person in Liao country.

Of course, it is superficial to say that these royal families quarrel because of love. What they really care about is supreme power. Because of this, Han Derang showed extraordinary toughness in this matter. And Xiao Yanyan echoed at a distance, and finally rose to the position of the golden couple in Liao politics, desperately trampling on this group of opponents.

But this is actually a good thing, let Han Derang open his eyes and solve these royal members. What he really wants to help Xiao Yan solve is an old problem of Liao: Song Liao War.

When Emperor Yeluxian of Jing Zong died, didn't Xiao Yanyan cry and say "the border is not peaceful" in his palace?

Why is the "frontier defense" always not "quiet"? The reason is that Liao broke away from Shi Jingtang in the late Jin Dynasty, and the Northern Song Dynasty never forgot to recover sixteen states and launched two large-scale northern expeditions.

Speaking of this matter, future generations who don't know the truth always like to step on the Song Dynasty. They always like to talk about how weak Dasong is. They were defeated by Liao in various ways, so they were beaten to nothing in the Northern Expedition. Just like the powerful Liao country restored the Great Song Dynasty, this is often a neat thing.

In real history, the Song-Liao War can be said to be the bloodiest and cruelest border war experienced by the Central Plains Dynasty. It is no exaggeration to say that the technical level and cruelty of this war have far exceeded the conflict between Han and Tang Dynasties and Xiongnu and Turks.

Why do you say that? The key is that the opponent is different. Han and Tang dynasties faced Huns and Turks, both pure nomadic peoples. Rao is brave and good at fighting, but his economic foundation is poor, his population is sparse and his scientific and technological level is extremely backward. A sudden attack hit him so hard that he bled to death.

However, the situation in Liao is just the opposite. Although he was born outside the nomadic people, his farming economy was also very developed, especially after the sixteen states of Youyun, his support for the war soared and the level of military science and technology reached a strong level. In addition, the nomadic people's own powerful war mobilization ability can also be seen from the terrorist fighting capacity. If Huns and Turks are like wolves on the grassland, Liao is an upgraded version of Wolverine. This is a powerful opponent that the Central Plains Dynasty has never met.

Compared with Han and Tang Dynasties, Dasong lost sixteen states because of congenital deficiency. Without losing geographical advantages or traditional horse farms, the strength of cavalry is greatly reduced. However, due to the strong economic and technological progress, in all previous commercial wars after the founding of the People's Republic of China, although Liao defeated Gaolianghe and Yongxibei Expedition twice, it also won the battles of Mancheng, Tanghe and Jingsai Army. In particular, Xiao Yan suffered a heavy blow, that is, in the military meeting held in Xianping, Song Zhenzong in four years, Lin Tiejun, the ace cavalry of Liao country, was completely annihilated, and the beheading record was as high as 20,000. This was given to Liao by the young emperor.

In the Song and Liao wars, there were countless such casualties. In the Liao Dynasty, more than ten thousand people were beheaded. In the past 25 years, the total number of beheadings of both sides recorded in historical materials alone has exceeded 65438+ 10,000. Such frequent and heavy war losses were impossible in the past Sino-Hungarian War and even the Turkic War in the Tang Dynasty. This is the disastrous torture experienced by the Song and Liao empires.

As for the attitude towards the prospect of war, it was an extremely headache in the Song Dynasty, but in the Liao Dynasty, Xiao Yanyan was extremely afraid.

Although Liao had stronger war support than Xiongnu, the huge war investment and losses still brought Liao close to the critical point of connecting the past with the future. The most fatal problem is that this war can only make the Liao nobles expand their armaments and gain the benefits of looting, but it is difficult to bring practical benefits to the Liao central government.

In a word, if Song and Liao continue to fight like this, it's hard to say who lives or dies, but it must be the ZSZSZSZ family who dies first.

So, it's time to end.

But how can we end this war? Not only should we stop with dignity, but we should also ensure the best interests? Xiao Yanyan negotiated with Han Derang and prepared to fight for peace.

In the twenty-second year of Liao Dynasty, in September, ZSZSZSZ attacked the Song Dynasty on a large scale in the name of conquering the south.

The invasion, Xiao Yan suffered heavy losses, 200,000 combat troops, including reserves and logistical support, * * * exceeded 500,000. Almost everyone thinks this woman is difficult to get along with.

The battle process is more like madness: Liao suffered a little setback at first, but soon broke through in a violent way, constantly breaking through Sui City, Deqing Army and other places, all the way south. The Song Dynasty immediately shocked the whole country, even in front of Wang Qinruo, Chen Yaomao and other ministers, repeatedly demanding that Song Zhenzong immediately move the capital to avoid the sharp edge of the Liao army.

In fact, even if you don't know soldiers, just look at the map and you will know that these ministers are really nervous: the Liao army went straight to the jurisdiction, but basically they used cavalry to besiege a unilateral city like Song Jun. Even after conquering all the strongholds in Song Jun, the Liao army did not show the advantage of fighting capacity. Before the Song Dynasty, several cities were occupied by fierce battles, which caused great casualties. What is particularly thrilling is that Song Chaojing's army can even launch a counterattack. In Peiping, Pan suddenly attacked the Liao army and almost captured Xiao Yanyan's precious son Liao Shengzong alive. Xiao Yanyan and he both broke out in a cold sweat.

But a more exciting reality soon appeared: Song Jun's defense was very flexible, and after a fierce attack, it quickly began to gather. A large number of elite troops gathered in Zhuozhou to confront the Liao army. Li Jilong, the god of war who defeated Yelvxiuge twice, replaced Song Jun as commander in chief. The real decisive battle is about to begin.

However, the situation in Liaoning at this time has completely deteriorated. The front is Song Jun's powerful cities and armed groups, and the rear supply line is even more unstable, which is in danger of cutting off the rear road at any time. If we can't defeat Song Jun soon, the consequences will be unimaginable. The real reversal happened soon. Marshal Xiao Landa of Liao was shot dead by Song Jun's crossbow at the city gate. Ye Xiuge, the first star in Liao, unexpectedly ended his battlefield career.

It turned out that the man who killed Song dealt a great blow: the young man, led by Prime Minister Kou Zhun, personally came to the gate of Langya. Song Jun's morale was high and he cheered like thunder. The soldiers are gearing up and eager to pounce on the Liao army and tear it to pieces.

However, at this critical moment, Xiao Yan was hot-headed and made a mistake: he sent thousands of elites to provoke Song Jun and tried to defeat him, only to bring him meat. He was defeated by Song Jun, who was eager to perform, and killed most people on the spot.

Thanks to this critical moment, Han Derang once again assumed the responsibility of a man. In fact, the whole invasion of South China is not so much a war as a diplomatic offensive. He took an aggressive stance first. During this period, diplomatic mediation continued and diplomatic envoys from both sides came and went. After Xiaolanda was killed, Han Derang's repeated persuasion finally calmed Xiaoyan down: he was so happy that he almost forgot what he was doing here.

Facts have proved that Han Derang is truly accurate and is the mentality of the Song Dynasty. Although he has an advantage on the battlefield, Dasong doesn't want to fight this battle. If there is a proper way to end the war, they are willing.

In fact, as Han Derang expected, Song Zhenzong sent special envoy Cao Liyong to the Liao barracks for negotiations. The bottom line of the pre-departure negotiation is to give up the territory and give 6.5438+0 million pounds. When Kou Zhun, the Prime Minister, learned of this incident, he flew into a rage and threatened Cao Liyong: "If you pay more than 300,000 yuan, I will cut your head off." Cao Liyong racked his brains and finally reduced the price to 300,000 yuan.

And this result, for both sides, is particularly satisfactory. Liao people can get a gift from the Song Dynasty every year, and this expenditure is only a dime of the rich in the Song Dynasty, which is only equivalent to the income of three counties. In Song Zhenzong's view, it is worthwhile to exchange the money for ending the war and saving lives. When Song Zhenzong knew that the amount mentioned by Cao Liyong was 300,000 pounds, he went crazy and rewarded Cao Liyong on the spot.

Of course, I am happier. Naturally, it is Liao country. First of all, the Song Dynasty was no longer entangled in the sovereignty of the sixteen cloud countries. More importantly, it can get money from the Song Dynasty every year. This is a good thing, which greatly enhanced Xiao Yan's prestige in Liao country. Many people warmly welcomed this agreement, and even the royal family of Liao was the most opposed to their love.

This win-win agreement was a single-source alliance at that time.

Liao concluded the "Khan Alliance". Since then, the two countries have repaired 100 years, and

On the day of the alliance, the envoys of the Song Dynasty saw Xiao Yanyan and Han Derang sitting side by side on the camel car, laughing.

In December of the 27th year of Liao Dynasty, the 57-year-old Queen Mother Xiao Yanyan died.

Han Derang advocates love and justice. He can't stand the blow and won't get sick.

Tirush, Queen of Sagrada Familia, prepared a decoction and dared not leave the hospital for a moment. As a dutiful son, they even surpassed a dutiful son.

However, Han Derang, who loved her deeply, dragged on for several months before her death, followed Xiao Yanyan to the ground and never looked back.

Lu Ye, Emperor of Liao Dynasty, posthumously presented Han Derang's Shangshuling and posthumous title's Wenzhong, personally held a state funeral for Han Derang, and buried Han Derang next to the tomb of Xiao Chuo, Queen Mother of Wanli.

In the history of Liao Dynasty, Han Derang was the only Han Chinese and courtier buried in the imperial tomb of Qidan.
