Speaking of Di Qing, what is left to people is the image of wearing a shawl, wearing a copper tool, taking the lead, and galloping on the battlefield. As a military general, it is rare to be able to serve as a privy councilor in the Northern Song Dynasty, a dynasty with heavy literature and suppressing martial arts, and it is rare to hold such a position of military power, although in the end he was excluded and demoted and depressed, but he gave the military general a breath.
When it comes to Di Qing, it is inevitable to talk about his military career. Di Qing is an authentic cold disciple, from childhood to enlist, half life on the battlefield, this is very normal, in such a dynasty, some people cold window hard reading for decades, naturally some people fight horses for half a life, maybe just to be able to live. Di Qing was still famous in the battle against Western Xia, and every time he was a pioneer and fought Xiao Yong, he was recommended to Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi by the judge Yin Su. Perhaps it was rare for such a brave man to appear in such an era of civil officials, Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi both appreciated him, and Fan Zhongyan also gave him a copy of "Zuo Shi Chunqiu" and instructed him to study it carefully. Subsequently, he continued to accumulate battle achievements, and commanded the envoys from the officer to the deputy capital of the Ma Army.
Speaking of Di Qing's battle achievements, the most famous thing is to quell the rebellion of Nong Zhigao. Zhao Zhen ordered Chen Shu and Yang Qi to lead the army to requisition, but returned without success. Yu Jing was then appointed as a pacification envoy in Guangxi, and Sun Huan was appointed as a pacification envoy in Guangnan, and he went to conquest one after another, but he was still defeated repeatedly, and Di Qing volunteered to fight against the nong zhigao rebels. It has to be said that Di Qing still has a set of fighting, as soon as he arrives at the front line, he beheads Thirty-two generals who have seriously violated military orders, such as Chen Shu, and the majesty of military law has been established, raiding Kunlun Pass, defeating the rebels in one fell swoop, which shows that he has courage and strategy.
