Among the chinese emperors, the best luck is Liu Xiu, who has also been jokingly called "the son of the face" by many netizens.
Here first explain what is called the "Son of the Plane".
The son of the plane is actually a science fiction saying, probably the life born of this plane (independent universe) given a special meaning, and the luck of this plane is born.
Compared with ordinary beings conceived, the face is more favored by the supreme mind body or the Creator, and everyone can understand it as the "Chosen Son".
Looking at Liu Xiu's family history, he is indeed worthy of the title of "Son of the Face", especially the famous Kunyang War in Chinese history with few victories, it is simply that even the heavens helped him! What a proper "child of destiny"!
The Battle of Kunyang was a strategic decisive battle fought between the two armies of the New Han Dynasty at Kunyang (present-day Ye County, Henan Province) in the last year of the New Dynasty, so it was called the Battle of Kunyang. The Battle of Kunyang is one of the famous examples of victory over more with less in Chinese history, which determined the demise of Xinmang and the rise of Liu Xiu, and was a strategic decisive battle with far-reaching influence in Chinese history.
In the Battle of Kunyang, Liu Xiu, as a general of the Han army, was famous in the world for his great achievements, laying the foundation for the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty in the future, and also sounded the death knell of Wang Mang's new dynasty. Gu Yanwu, a great thinker of the Ming Dynasty, praised Liu Xiu in the Battle of Kunyang: "Destroying the great enemy in the First World War, he Yuping was immediately made."
In the fourth year (17th year) of the new Mang Tianfeng, Wang Mang sent Wang Yi the Great Sikong and Wang Xun to mobilize more than 400,000 soldiers from various prefectures and counties, claiming to be a million troops to attack the Gengshi regime in an attempt to extinguish the Han army in one fell swoop.
At that time, the Kunyang Han army was only 9,000 people, and all the generals wanted to retreat to avoid the enemy's attack, so Liu Xiu persuaded the generals to hold Kunyang on the grounds that "the combined forces can still win and the dispersion is difficult to preserve". While persuading the generals to defend the city, Liu Xiu rushed to the field to mobilize 17,000 elite reinforcements to rescue him.
If you look at the comparison between the two sides, Wang Mangjun is 400,000 and Liu Xiujun is less than 30,000, which cannot be won at all, unless Liu Xiujun is both Gundam.
But because Liu Xiu was the "son of the face", he got the help of the heavens, so he won more with less and defeated Wang Mangjun!
Liu Xiu's victory in the Battle of Kunyang, in addition to his personal bravery, faith and strategy, also had a lot to do with the celestial phenomenon.
Before the decisive battle, visions arose frequently, which greatly demoralized Wang Mang's army. The ancients were very superstitious, and when they saw this vision, they were naturally very afraid and thought it was an ominous omen.
The Book of The Later Han Dynasty Astronomical Chronicle: "Mang has the change of defeat. There are clouds like bad mountains during the day, and the fallen army is tired of the soldiers, and the so-called camp head star is also. Zhan Yue: 'Where the head of the camp falls, the army under it is overthrown, and it bleeds for three thousand miles.' ’”
"Later Han Shu Guangwu Emperor Chronicle": "At night there are meteors falling into the camp, and there are clouds like bad mountains during the day, and when the camp falls, it is scattered without reaching the ground, and the officials are tired of it, and the so-called star of the camp head is also." ”。
Translation: In the night a meteor fell into the barracks, and during the day there were clouds like collapsing mountains that fell toward the camp, but less than a foot above the ground scattered, and the officials and soldiers were frightened and fell to the ground.
In the battle, it was even more stormy to help Liu Xiu fight.
The Zizhi Tongjian records that "Guangwu Nai and three thousand people who dared to die rushed to the core from the water west of the city, searching for and destroying Chen Chaos, taking advantage of the sharp collapse, and then killing Wang Xun." The city also roared out, the Chinese and foreign forces, shaking the heavens and the earth, the reckless soldiers collapsed, and the people who walked together rushed to more than a hundred miles. There will be thunder and wind, the roof tiles will fly, the rain will fall like a note, the rivers will overflow, the tigers and leopards will fight, the soldiers will rush to the battlefield, the drowning will be tens of thousands, and the water will not flow. ”。
The Book of Yuan Shan Song says: "Strange stars travel by day, the name is yingtou, and the line zhen is also a great curse." "It was the time when thousands of soldiers went to the rescue of Kunyang, rushed to attack the second public soldier, and vigorously fired, the trumpets moved the heavens and the earth, and the tiger and leopard were terrified and defeated. It will be windy, flying roof tiles, rain like water. The two soldiers were defeated and committed thieves, and tens of thousands of people died. Racing to the water, the deceased is entrusted, and the water does not flow. Kill Situ Wang Xun. The troops scattered and returned to the county. Wang Yi was still in Chang'an, recklessly defeated, and killed. The change of the camp head, the bloodshed of the overthrown army.
Judging from the weather before and during the war, the heavens helped him, which is enough to show that Liu Xiu is a well-deserved "son of the face" and "son of heavenly choice".
The two ancient dicks married the goddess they admired and embarked on the peak of their lives
But the question is, why does heaven favor Liu Xiu?
In fact, it is not the heavens that favor Liu Xiu, it is Sun Wukong who helped Liu Xiu.
Let's look at the time when Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the sky.
In "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong did not mention the specific time when he made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, but later Tang Monk took the scriptures and met Liu Boqin, a hunter on the border of the Tang Dynasty, and borrowed the mouth of Liu Hunter to say the time when Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the sky.
In the 14th episode of "Journey to the West", "The Heart Ape Returns to Righteousness, the Six Thieves Disappear Without a Trace", Liu Boqin said: "In the previous years, I heard the old man say: When Wang Mang usurped Han, the sky descended on this mountain, and there was a god monkey under the pressure, who was not afraid of cold and heat, did not eat food, and had his own earth god in custody, teaching him to eat iron pills and drink copper juice. ”
After Sun Wukong was rescued by Tang Monk in the film and television drama "Journey to the West", he once spent the night in an old man's home, and Sun Wukong knew the old man in the family, because when the old man was still herding cows, he once picked peaches for Sun Wukong to eat.
The old man and the Tang monk said: When Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, a divine monkey descended from the sky and was crushed under the mountain. The old man also said: This is what my grandfather said.
It can be seen that the time when Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace was when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty and established a new dynasty.
Wang Mang's usurpation of Han was in 9 AD, and the new dynasty he established lasted for 15 years until 23 AD, when it was overthrown.
The time of "Wang Mang's usurpation of Han" does not refer to the year when Wang Mang first usurped the throne, but refers to the period during which Wang Mang usurped Han, that is, the 15 years of the entire new dynasty.
This leads to a bug in Journey to the West: even from 23 AD onwards, when the Tang monks went to learn the scriptures in the 3rd year of Tang Taizong's Zhenguan (629), Sun Wukong was suppressed for 606 years, not 500 years.
For a specific explanation, please see my other article: "Journey to the West" two big bugs: Sun Wukong was suppressed for 600 years, Tang Monk took the scripture twice"
Those who have seen "Journey to the West" all know that Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and fought a battle of 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals in the Ling Xiao Treasure Palace, making a lot of noise, especially when it mentioned the Bagua Furnace, it caused a difficulty for the later Western Heavens to learn the scriptures: the Flame Mountain.
In the sixtieth "Journey to the West", "The Bull Demon King Strikes and Goes to The Feast, Sun Xinger's Second Tune Banana Fan" writes: "(Flame Mountain) Land Road: 'There was no such mountain here, because when the Great Sage was making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago, he was captured by the Xiansheng, pressed to Lao jun, put the Great Sage in the Bagua Furnace, and after refining, he opened the ding, and you stomped down the Dan Furnace, dropped a few bricks, and there was an ember in it, and it turned into a mountain of flames here. I was originally a Daoist who guarded the furnace in the Tushi Palace, and when I was blamed by Lao Jun for losing my guard, I descended here, and I made the Flame Mountain Land. ’”
It can be seen that Sun Wukong was making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, did not do anything good in the upper realm, and also caused a lot of trouble for the netherworld, let the furnace bricks in the Bagua furnace fall down and form a mountain of flames, blocked the traffic between the Tang And Tianzhu, cut off the Silk Road, seriously affected Sino-foreign exchanges, and made it more difficult for the Tang monks to learn the scriptures.
Not only that, but it also involved the Tu rate palace keepers who were demoted to the nether realm as a small land, and this monkey monkey was really harmful to others and to himself!
However, it did help Liu Xiu win the Battle of Kunyang, sounded the death knell of the demise of the new dynasty, and changed the course of Chinese history.
It was during Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty that Sun Wukong kicked down the Bagua furnace, and several bricks fell to form a mountain of flames, while the other bricks were torn apart by Sun Wukong and the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, and several of them fell into the nether realm and turned into meteor meteorites, falling into the military camp of Wang Mang's army outside Kunyang City.
Several complete bricks turned into flaming mountains, while several broken bricks turned into meteorites.
A few bricks of the Upper Realm fell into the Nether and turned into a continuous mountain of flames, while several broken bricks turned into meteor meteorites, killing countless Wang Mang soldiers.
As for "there are clouds like bad mountains during the day, when the camp falls, it is not as far as the ground is scattered", that is, during the day there are clouds like collapsing mountains, which are the swirling fire gas of the Bagua furnace, falling into the mortal world, and encountering the intensification of cold air to form a huge cloud like a collapsing mountain.
As for "there will be great thunder and wind, the roof tiles will fly, the rain will fall like a note, and the river will overflow", it is the huge sound and impact of the broken bricks when they fall into the mortal world, just like the roar of thunder, forming a hurricane; after some of the fire gas falls into the mortal world, it meets the cold air and becomes a sudden rain.
This catastrophe seriously affected the battle situation of the Battle of Kunyang, allowing Liu Xiujun to win a complete victory, and ultimately changing the direction of Chinese history.
Therefore, it is not so much that Liu Xiu is the "son of the plane" as it is "the son of Sun Wukong".
Although Sun Wukong is a "Taiyi Scattered Immortal", he has boundless mana, he can make a big fuss in the sky, and if he does it casually in the celestial realm, he can change the historical trend of the nether realm and the fate of countless people!
It's a trisolaran, a dark forest!
Think about it!
