Everyone knows that Wang Gui, Zhang Xian and the slightly less famous Tang Huai are all Yue Fei's standard rural brothers. They were born in Tangyin and grew up together since childhood.
It is said that Yue Fei was a tenant of the Meihua Han family in those days, and his family conditions were the worst. But some people are the chosen ones, and they have the aura of being the protagonist. It was obvious that his two brothers died in infancy, but when he arrived, he was born with supernatural powers, as if some gods were helping him, and he learned martial arts.
He was making great strides with each passing day, and the delighted teacher Zhou Tong declared that this son would become a great weapon. After joining the army, he soon became the most brave soldier in the three armies, and he could not be said to be the only brave general in the world.
Not only that, he obviously studied martial arts. When he was young, he had to do some farm work from time to time. He could only find time to read and read occasionally, but it was like Nuwa had given him a cheating device when she created him. He could give him a child at the age of twenty-four.
What is the level of an official who has written a thousand-word book? Not to mention that he can still write "Ping Jin Ce" a few years later! In the words of an officer in the brother army, King Yue Wei was a born cultural man.
So it stands to reason that Wang Gui and others have been accustomed to following his lead since they were young, which is to say that they recognized the eldest brother in the legend. What makes Wang Gui admire even more is that Yue Fei also has shortcomings, but when facing the broken mountains and rivers,
Self-examination and rapid growth. For example, when he was young, his character was much more irritable and stubborn than now. But now, who wouldn't say that Marshal Yue has extraordinary personal virtues and a humble character?
At least five years ago, Wang Gui thought that he was the most trusted and relied upon by his brothers. Not to mention Yan Ling's rescue and Li Cheng's achievements in destroying the puppet Qi, at the beginning, Zhang Xian and the others were still young, and Wang Gui followed him.
Together with Yue Fei, he enlisted in the brave warriors designed to conquer the Liao Dynasty and served as a soldier under the famous minister Liu Kai (the father of Liu Ziyu, the ambassador to Kansai). Later, he was driven out several times with him and rejoined the army.
It can be said that since they were young, they learned the martial arts of riding and shooting from their mentor Zhou Tong. When they grew up, they started as local archers and moved around. The brothers have always supported each other and never left each other.
Today, when Lu Dayou mentioned that he had fallen out with Wang Yan, it reminded Wang Gui even more of what Yue Fei said when he decided to return to Henan to fight against the Jin Dynasty, "At this time, I have to go back to my hometown for three to five days, March and May, and I have to go back to my hometown for three to five days."
Being driven out by the Jin people like chickens and dogs, and then dragging down the fellow villagers and being massacred by the Jin people, is not really going home. But if you want to really go home, there is only one way, and that is to drive the Jin people out completely, even to the point of having to
In turn, attack them at home! But if you really want to drive the Jin people away, as you have seen and heard, you must have a regular king master who can force an army of 100,000 or 200,000 people like the Jin people.
!”
"And if you want to have such a large army, the Song Dynasty must not fall, and the government must be in peace! Otherwise, we can't even find ordnance! So if we want to go home at this time, we can only go south! That is others
I don’t understand, but you must understand no matter what, otherwise I, Yue Fei, will be really armless!” (These two paragraphs are quoted from the original text, with slight changes)
Wang Gui didn't even remember what he said at that time. He just felt that he could not live up to his brother's sole trust. Also, when he went south the next day, Zhang Xian, who was just throwing a tantrum, was indifferent to him.
Tang Huai was tied to a horse and held down on the ferry with his own hands. He was really a bastard at that time.
When Wang Gui remembered it, the lonely moon outside was like frost. He drank a cup alone, but the corner of his mouth smiled unconsciously. Since when did this impatient and even a little squeamish little brother start to impress people? It should be from Yue Fei's uncle Yao
Wang wanted to assassinate his nephew and was discovered in time. From then on, he raided back to Tokyo, the Battle of Yaoshan, and the suppression of bandits in Hunan. Everyone could see Zhang Xian's growth, and Wang Gui gradually realized that Zhang Xian was the
The thing closest to your elder brother is your ability to learn and improve yourself or your moral character.
More importantly, the officials also valued Zhang Xian more.
What Yue Fei always wanted was to return the country to me. For this reason, he was not afraid of his own death. He had no love for wealth, silk, and beauty. He even made a move that was equivalent to political suicide by abandoning Tokyo. Wang Gui said that if it were any emperor who replaced Qin Shihuang, he would
At the very least, Yue Fei had to be demoted and sent out. But the eldest brother was lucky enough to meet today's official family, and he wholeheartedly protected him. He even made it clear that from now on, the imperial camp front army would serve as the nation's mobile elite force, and the Song Dynasty would be in his hands.
ace, so what Yue Fei has to do now is to train his troops based on this decision.
He, Wang Gui, could say that he was not afraid of death, but he could not guarantee that he would be completely unselfish. So gradually, Yue Fei relied more on Zhang Xian, who was close to his own thinking. In fact, the Jurchen information was somewhat inaccurate, and there was indeed something between him and Yue Fei
It's not pleasant at all, but it can't be said to be a quarrel. After the Western Xia Dynasty was destroyed, Yue Fei enjoyed the treatment of a county king as the coach. The number of people under them increased, and a nephew of Wang Gui got rich and used his name to cheat, and ended up falling into the hands of Qi Wang Zhang Jun.
Fortunately, he did not join the army and the amount of money was not large, otherwise he would not have to wait for Wang Gui to fish for people. Yue Fei really knew how to deal with military law.
Although Wang Gui was later punished and driven away, he obviously knew that his brother was unhappy. He only tolerated him because of his status and did not want the former army to be in turmoil. In fact, he was more willing to make mistakes like he did back then.
After being scolded and kicked a few times, we are still good brothers.
But after all, they are all different. Even if they remain unchanged, the times will force them to change. What is very realistic at present is that no matter what, Yue Fei has offended the Tokyo nobles too hard, and it is no longer easy for the government to protect it. So once
When the restructuring is completed next year, there is a 90% chance that he will step down from the post of commander of the former military capital of the imperial camp and become a deputy privy envoy like King Han Qin.
Regardless of whether it was for public or selfish reasons, for power or to serve the country, why didn't Wang Gui want to take over the real power control? After the Battle of Huolu, the officials didn't know what to think. Neither he nor Zhang Xian were among the eighteen kings, but for reward
For meritorious service, each was awarded the title of military envoy. Wang Gui was the military envoy of the Wuwei Army, and Zhang Xian was the military envoy of the Chengde Army.
In the Song Dynasty before Jingkang, this was the lifelong pursuit of almost all warriors, but now as the imperial army of the official family has repeatedly won battles and regained the country, no one knows that the true top military commander is the commander-in-chief.
Wang Gui got up and walked around again, but the stove on his desk was really warm, but the smell was suffocating. He thought that it was all over, because the secret system established by the officials was running well, making the originally chaotic high-level military system of the Song Dynasty
, the class divisions are clear, and the level of the commander clearly stands out, forming a stable hierarchy between the commander and the commander. Even the illiterate peddlers and pawns on the roadside know that the commander of the imperial camp is a real high official.
.
This is also the institutional basis for Zhang Xian's direct promotion to the capital as a commander. The question now is, what does Zhang Xian think? Does he want to surpass himself and become the youngest commander?
Wang Gui kept thinking about this all night, and waited until about three o'clock before blowing off the lamp and going to sleep. Deep in his heart, he did not think that pursuing this unification was a betrayal of Yue Fei. Many things in the army were invisible.
Yes, if there is really a need one day, although Yue Fei can come back and directly lead the Imperial Army, no one would dare to say anything?
Han Shizhong, who had not seen Yanjing, found Wang Sheng, the deputy commander of the imperial camp's left army, as soon as he entered the city. Without saying a word, he was beaten with a military stick and cursed with two cups of tea. He was escorted to Shizhou on the same day.
Go and apologize to some scholar who was bullied by him.
The current commander-in-chief of the left army in the imperial camp, Xie Yuan, watched from the side without any comments. He also asked King Qin to inspect the old troops.
Little did he know that on the same day, King Han Qin got up early to avoid Xianggong Hu Yin and Hu Xianggong, who was angry due to insufficient construction funds. He found a free office with Yue Fei who was passing by here on business and began to work as an official.
He "invented" military chess, and when he was about to lose, he actually acted rogue and deliberately disturbed Yue Fei's thoughts, "Let me tell you, Xiaoyue, who will your position be given to in the future? Will it be Wang Gui or that Zhang Xian? There are speculations in the army."
Yeah! I’ve only been here for a short time, and I’ve heard a lot of people gossiping about me.”
Yue Fei's hand paused for a moment, then fell steadily, and said: "This is not something that ministers should think about. Officials have their own sages." Then he drank a cup of tea, played another chess move, and said with a smile: "Han Wu
Brother, I gave in, and I won."
Han Shizhong was stunned for a moment, and then became angry and said: "You are so blind, but you don't know how to let me, my old brother, make people say that you are modest and polite and not like a warrior!"
It's so nice of you, Brother Yue, to be so anxious. It's a shame that others can't beat him with this temper, otherwise he wouldn't be where he is today.
Yue Fei wasn't angry either. He and Han Shizhong didn't have a close relationship to begin with, but sometimes you can really admire someone and be the same as before. Not to mention Han Shizhong, if he really recognized you, there would be nothing to say about being a friend.
, without seeing Hu Yin's righteousness, he has been manipulated by him ever since. Hu Yin is like this, let alone Yue Fei who truly believes that "civilians do not love money, military officers do not hesitate to die"? It's strange that they don't look at each other. At the moment, they have to call each other brothers.
. Besides, Yue Fei knew that the big brother in the army liked to show off, so he let it be, but this was an exception. He said lightly: "Since the official family gave the name military chess and learned it from actual combat, as a member of the military,
How can I give in a little bit?”

A short sword unearthed in Changge City was confirmed to belong to the famous Song Dynasty general Han Shizhong
Recently, Mr. Wang, a citizen of Ge City, a high-ranking hen official, found a short knife in the demolished family's old house. After contacting archaeologists from the Institute of Archeology of the Academy of Social Sciences, professionals said that its appearance was very similar to that of the early Northern Song Dynasty, but it was already rusty.
Further identification is required.
After expert restoration, it can be confirmed through the above text and historical records that this sword was owned by Han Shizhong, the founding hero of the Northern Song Dynasty.
According to an associate researcher at the Institute of Archeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the knife was probably made of arrowheads. After chemical decomposition, the four characters "jinwushu" can be seen on it. The craftsmanship itself is not superb, so it is difficult to preserve.
Song history records that in the second year of Jianyan in the Northern Song Dynasty, Han Shizhong was ordered to assist Zongze from Huaixi to stay in Tokyo (today's Bianliang). When passing through Changge, he encountered an ambush by Jin Wushu. Due to the lack of cavalry, he had to bravely break through and enter Changshe City to defend.
After a fierce battle, the military doctor removed more than fifty Jurchen arrowheads from his body. Therefore, Han Shizhong ordered people to make them into short knives, and he promised to cut Jin Wushu with a bayonet sooner or later. Perhaps because of this, the casting was rough. But later the gold
Wu Shu was killed by Song Shizu.
According to Mr. Wang, his ancestor was a soldier of Han Shizhong, and it was probably given to him as a gift. His ancestors kept it as a treasure, and hid it for fear of being melted during the war. Experts are currently examining whether this knife can be regarded as a cultural relic. (Guangming Daily, Guangming Daily,
