Chapter 370 Even if people like Yue Fei and Xin Qiji were given to you, you wouldn't know how t
[The story of the Yang Family Generals became widely popular among the people starting from the Southern Song Dynasty. It is speculated that it is related to the Jin people, the biggest enemy of the Southern Song Dynasty at that time.
Compared with the generals such as Zhe family, Zhong family, Yao family, Di Qing, who fought against Western Xia for a long time, the common people will miss the important figures of the anti-Liao period more.
Perhaps he was hoping that God would send him another heroic general to resist the Jin people in the north!
The story of the Yang Family Generals spread to the Ming Dynasty. We all know that throughout the Ming Dynasty, their biggest enemies were the Oirat and Mongolia in the north. The northern forces always loomed over the heads of the Ming people. Therefore, they would have a good impression of the heroic generals who also fought against the northern ethnic minorities. 】
＜You have it but don't cherish it. Look at what happened to Yue Fei? You still want a hero to fight against the Jin Dynasty. How many generals were wrongly accused during the Southern Song Dynasty?＞
＜So, it’s not that the Southern Song and Ming dynasties didn’t have heroes who fought against the Jin people and the northern Mongolians, but they didn’t cherish them! In the end, they regretted and reminisced about the past.＞
＜What does the emperor do have to do with the people? Did the people wrong them? What can the people do? If the emperor wants someone to die, can the people stop him? It is precisely because the people miss them that they leave many folk legends for future generations to remember.＞
＜Yes, didn’t Yue Fei become more well-known through folk novels and operas?＞
＜Anyway, I don’t like reading all novels of this type written in the Song Dynasty, because well… they are too depressing!!!＞
[Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin: Future generations are incompetent! Useless emperors! Even mentally retarded people can become emperors! All future emperors who are obsessed with the art of gods and ghosts are not allowed to be emperors!!!]
[Ming Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang: Yes! I agree with what Zhao Da said! Emperors who are obsessed with cultivating immortals and alchemy will no longer be allowed to be emperors!!!]
[Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin: Old Zhu is right! ]
[Ming Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao: @Ming Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houcong cousin?!]
[Emperor Jiajing of Ming Dynasty Zhu Houcong: @Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty Zhu Houzhao, you are a ruthless and incompetent ruler obsessed with women, please stop caring about others! ]
[Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao: Eh? Is it because I am too obsessed with women that I have no offspring?]
……
Song Dynasty, the second year of Chunxi
"No one is allowed to touch General Yue! If anyone touches General Yue, we will fight him to the death!!!"
The people in the city roared in anger, and soon the others followed suit.
"General Yue is a gift from God to us! No one can take him away!"
"We only trust Marshal Yue!"
...
An official asked Zhao Ding: "Now the common people only know Yue Fei, but not the government. As time goes by..."
"Shut up!" Zhao Ding interrupted his subordinate before he finished speaking. "How can you comment on Yue Fei's character?"
"He is loyal to me, Song, and that is enough."
If they had to say it, the most important thing at the moment is to drive out the Jin people and return to their homeland.
As for what will happen to Yue Fei in the future, what can the government think...
Zhao Ding can only do his best now to make the emperor accept Yue Fei. The emperor is still a child and can still handle it, but the eunuchs and other people around him must be carefully interrogated and they must not be allowed to say bad things about Yue Fei to the emperor.

[In fact, the Southern Song Dynasty's attitude towards the Han people in the Jin-occupied areas in the north was mainly to win them over, and they had always encouraged them to migrate south. They also promised to give them fields, oxen, etc.
The most famous person who returned from the north is Xin Qiji. He was born in Shandong, which was occupied by the Jin Dynasty. Later, he attacked the Jin camp at night, defeated 50,000 people with 50 men, and successfully returned to the south.
The people of the Southern Song Dynasty probably thought that Yang Ye originally belonged to the Northern Han Dynasty, and later joined the Northern Song Dynasty after the Northern Han Dynasty surrendered, so he could be considered a northerner.
Yang Ye's anti-Liao attributes were maximized, and coupled with Yang Ye's own tragic character, after being framed, he refused to surrender and died of starvation, which made it easier for the people to have a good impression of him.
In fact, if you look closely at the various books produced after the Southern Song Dynasty, such as the secondary literature derived from Yang's Generals, Yang's Women Generals, or the book operas such as Hu's Generals, you will find that it was precisely because the Southern Song Dynasty, which people were in at the time, was not very good in military affairs compared to all the feudal dynasties, that they chose to create a group of powerful generals in the novel. 】
＜Why do I remember that the Southern Song Dynasty seemed to look down on the Han people in the north……＞
＜You didn’t use Xin Qiji among the people who returned from the north. His military talent was not fully utilized.＞
＜Xin Qiji reached the peak of his career as soon as he debuted. When he returned to the Southern Song Dynasty, the official position he was given was idle. He finally waited until the Northern Expedition was launched, but the court did not listen to his advice. In the end, the Northern Expedition failed and the pro-war faction in the court was demoted again. Alas……＞
＜Xin Qiji gives people a feeling that he was born at the wrong time.＞
＜The Southern Song Dynasty owes too many people. Xin Qiji is really very upset. He was so famous in his youth but ended up going back home to farm. [Sigh]＞
＜Yeah, what's the point of the Southern Song welfare?! Hoping they would move south but not re-employ them is all bullshit!＞
＜The only real female general in the Song Dynasty was Han Shizhong’s wife Liang Hongyu.＞
＜When I was little, I actually always thought Hua Mulan and Mu Guiying were the same person [covering face]＞
＜There are quite a lot of famous generals in the Northern Song Dynasty, first of all, Li Jilong (Zhao Er's brother-in-law) and Cao Wei (Cao Bin's fourth son) during the reign of Taizu and Taizong, Liu Fa in the late Northern Song Dynasty (there is a saying that "Liu Fa must be the first among the famous generals of the time", but his achievements were erased because his son Liu Zhengyan launched the "Miao Liu Rebellion"), and the brothers Wu Lin and Wu Jie at the turn of the two Song Dynasties...＞
＜First of all, we should make it clear that the Song Dynasty never lacks military generals, especially famous generals. To be honest, the Song, Liao, Jin, and Xixia were all weaklings fighting each other, with excellent matching mechanisms. Therefore, after more than a hundred years of fighting, the Song Dynasty always had great talents at critical moments, although their endings were not good. I remember that at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, a group of generals were forced to rebel. [Eating melon]＞
[Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin: You still despise me? What ability do you have, Southern Song? You have talented people but you don’t use them? You are only happy when you force them to rebel? Zhao Guangyi, you are really capable!!!]
[Kublai Khan: Southern Song... Aren't they descendants of your Zhao Da? [Eating melon] Don't worry, your little emperor still has some backbone. It's much better than when the Northern Song Dynasty fell. I treated the Song people very well and didn't do those dirty things to the Jin people [thumbs-up] ]
……
Song Dynasty, Kaibao Year 3
Zhao Guangyi laughed out loud, "Yes, aren't all the Southern Song Dynasty descendants yours? We are both equally matched..."
After being glared at and slapped by Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Guangyi was speechless.
Zhao Pu was sitting next to him, and now he really couldn't understand what this person was doing. Why do you have to make the emperor angry? The emperor has already spared your life because of our long-term brotherhood and the queen mother.
……
Cao Bin stood up in surprise, looked around, and laughed wildly: "Hahahaha, it's my son! This kid looks like me!"
I thought the Cao family had declined and would not produce any talented generals, but it seems his offspring is still useful.
Zhao Dezhao congratulated him and asked hurriedly, "How old is your son Cao Wei?"
Cao Bin stopped laughing and fell silent.
"Your Highness, I only have three sons now... the eldest son Cao Can, the second son
Cao Wei, the third son Cao Xuan, and the fourth son Cao Wei, ah. "
"It's okay. It will probably only last for a few years." The deputy general beside him said.
……
Song Dynasty, the ninth year of Yuanyou
Song Zhezong Zhao Xu closed his eyes and thought, "Liu Fa was the one who killed and captured more than 500 people, burned 12,000 tribesmen's tents, and captured 13,000 livestock and weapons in Saimen Village six years ago?"
When Zhang Dun heard the emperor mention this, he also thought of the battle with Xixia six years ago. At that time, General Mi Yun was killed and the morale was low, but Liu Fa led his troops to attack Xixia Hongzhou fiercely, turning the tide of the battle in one fell swoop.
"Yes, after the war, Liu Fa became the third commander."
Zhao Xu remembered very clearly that at that time he felt that Liu Fa was a brave and resourceful man, and it seemed to be true.
"When discussing famous generals, Liu Fa must be ranked first."
Liu Fa was worried. Although he didn't have a son yet, his son might be guilty of treason in the future.
I had heard about the "Miao Liu Mutiny" on the screen before, but I didn't think much about it at that time. But now...
"General, don't worry. This official is not the one who only wants to escape. We all think that this official has the talent of Taizu..."
