"Despicable is the passport of the despicable, and the noble is the epitaph of the noble." - North Island
Throughout the history of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, there will always be some heroic figures, who are the great heroes of the heroes and the true heroes of the country and the people. They are great heroes who cherish the world and fight for righteousness and wealth. At the same time, there are also some people who contrast with heroes, who are not only not heroes, but even beasts.
In the Song Dynasty, which was developing rapidly in culture and economy, it was also named the most cowardly dynasty in ancient China. In the centuries of this dynasty's existence, there have been many stories that cannot be looked back. In particular, some people with clear character images and obvious personality characteristics became representative figures of the history of the Song Dynasty.
Once upon a time, we liked to talk about heroes, but today, the one we are talking about is a "scum" in stark contrast to the hero. He is Kong Yanzhou, a rebel general of the Southern Song Dynasty and a loyal dog of the Jin people, who threw his wife into the military camp in order to dominate his beautiful daughter.
However, there is a story about Kong Yanzhou, which must start from before he started.
First, the bandits were born and joined the army speculatively
It is said that Kong Yanzhou and the national hero Yue Fei during the Southern Song Dynasty were fellow countrymen, and they were not only people of the same period, but also Xiangzhou people. However, Kong Yanzhou does not have Yue Fei's feelings of worrying about the country and the people, in Yue Fei's body, it is an inspirational story of reading poetry and books and determined to serve the country, while Kong Yanzhou is a story of climbing and rolling and opportunistic. From the origin and original intention of the two people, there is a great difference.
There are very few records about Kong Yanzhou's origin, especially the family background of Kong Yanzhou, which is almost not recorded. Consult all the "History of Jin", there are not many records about Kong Yanzhou, that is, the rogue asshole. It is said that Kong Yanzhou came from a humble background, was idle all day, and did not produce, and after doing murder, he completely became a thief.
Later, Kong Yanzhou felt that the bandits had a bad life, so he chose to join the army and rose all the way to the jingdongxi road terracotta army, so it seems that the life of a soldier is still quite suitable for him.
However, Kong Yanzhou is selfish and cruel, greedy and suspicious, and often fishes the common people. In the place where Kong Yanzhou lived, the people's lives were very unsatisfactory, especially Kong Yanzhou's oppression of them, so that Kong Yanzhou did not have a good reputation. However, although the local people hated Kong Yanzhou, no one dared to speak out. Perhaps, this is what we often call daring to be angry and not daring to speak.
It is said that when the Jin army attacked Shandong, Kong Yanzhou saw that things were not good, and it was very possible that he could not fight, so he quickly ran away with his soldiers. At the same time, Kong Yanzhou not only left the people to the Jin people, but he himself also went all the way south, burning and looting the people. It can be said that at that time, Kong Yanzhou's behavior was the same as that of bandits. But the Southern Song Court did nothing about what Kong Yanzhou and others did.
Subsequently, the imperial court did not say a word about the unrestrained soldiers led by Kong Yanzhou, but instead issued edicts to them and sent them to suppress the Zhong Xiang rebellion. According to legend, Kong Yanzhou suppressed his compatriots very brutally at that time, and all the rebels he caught cut off their hands and fingers, and wanted to insert insulting slogans on their heads.
Although Kong Yanzhou's team had average combat effectiveness, Kong Yanzhou's scheming was different from that of ordinary bandits. Even if he could not defeat the rebel army, Kong Yanzhou could use the counter-plot to kill Zhong Xiang. Due to his merits in quelling the rebel army, Kong Yanzhou was promoted by the imperial court to the position of envoy to the town of Puhuang.
Second, betray the Great Song and turn to the Jin people
Because Kong Yanzhou was born as a bandit and had a lazy personality, he did not work long in the position of the assistant envoy of Puhuang Town, and he could not stand the military discipline of the Southern Song Dynasty. According to the Records of the Lineage Since Jianyan, Kong Yanzhou led his troops to raid Liu Chao's troops, who were passing through Gwangju at that time, and not only took away all the grain and grass of Liu Chao's troops, but also beat Liu Chao's troops to pieces.
What is certain is that at this moment, Kong Yanzhou already has the intention of rebellion, and has already considered a way out. After inquiring, he learned of the recruitment policy of the puppet Qi Liu Yu regime supported by the Jin people. Therefore, in 1132 AD, Kong Yanzhou killed the family of Wang Jiu, a staff member who had been persuading him, and chose the path of defection to the enemy.
Subsequently, Kong Yanzhou transformed into a pseudo-Qi lackey and killed a Hui horse gun of the Southern Song Dynasty court. According to legend, at that time, Kong Yanzhou used his own experience as an envoy to puhuang town to frantically attack the weak places of Puzhou's troops, and could not resist him without drawing troops. After the puppet Qi was destroyed by Jin, Kong Yanzhou went to serve under Jin Wushu and was given the title of King of Guangping Commandery (廣平郡王) for Jin Lian's several important places in the Southern Song Dynasty.
It can be said that Kong Yanzhou's behavior at that time was spurned by people, and as a general of the Southern Song Dynasty court, he threw himself into the arms of the Jin State and became a pawn of the Jin State in attacking the Song Dynasty. It can be seen from this that in Kong Yanzhou's heart, there is no concept of loyalty and patriotism at all. Not only that, in Kong Yanzhou's view, everything is less important than the interests he pursues.
However, what is unexpected is that behind Kong Yanzhou's lack of the concept of monarchy, he is even more of a beast that is contrary to human morality.
Third, the occupation of the daughter
According to the "History of Jin", "Yanzhou is desolate, and there are animals and beasts. The concubine gave birth to a daughter, Zi Li, and Yan Zhou abused her mother bitterly, so that Chen Chen was not his own daughter, so he became a concubine. His officials are responsible for official money, and their wives and coupons are private. However, when Hao Prefecture was broken, all the armies were killed, and Yan Zhou ordered that thousands of people should not be killed, and people called it this. However, from childhood to old age, he has often been in the army, practicing military affairs, and knowing the sharpness and bluntness. Hailing wanted to think that he was the general of the Southern Expedition, Zhenglong for five years, except for Nanjing. ”
In other words, Kong Yanzhou can be described as a person who has done many evils, caused public indignation, and caused immeasurable harm to the local people in many areas where Kong Yanzhou arrived. However, for such a Kong Yanzhou, the world can only express helplessness. After all, at that time, Kong Yanzhou held military power and had the support of Jin Guo, so Kong Yanzhou was difficult to shake.
From ancient times to the present, Kong Yanzhou did not have a good reputation, and even the Jin Guo he served did not give him a good title. In the eyes of the Jin people, Kong Yanzhou was just a capable person, not a hero.
In ancient times, the requirements for human ethics were very strict, but in the ideology of ethnic minorities such as the Jin people, such a concept was very lacking. However, compared with the Jin people, Kong Yanzhou's behavior is more contrary to human morality.
It is said that Kong Yanzhou is very, as long as he sees beautiful women, he will try to dominate them as much as possible. No matter what kind of identity this beautiful woman has and what kind of background she has, Kong Yanzhou will do whatever it takes to get her. Those who were defeated by Kong Yanzhou and those who were oppressed by Kong Yanzhou, their wives and daughters were all occupied by Kong Yanzhou.
Incredibly, Kong Yanzhou did not even spare his own daughter. He had a concubine who looked like a heavenly immortal, and Kong Yanzhou was very fond of her. However, the reason why Kong Yanzhou pampered the concubine was not only because the concubine was beautiful, but because the concubine's daughter fell into the country.
In order to occupy his own daughter, Kong Yanzhou wrote and directed a good play by himself, and he locked up his concubines in the military camp and humiliated and scolded her in various ways. At the same time, Kong Yanzhou also highly publicized that the daughter born to the concubine was not his own child, but was born of adultery with the soldiers of the military camp.
In this way, Kong Yanzhou can justifiably occupy his own daughter. However, Kong Yanzhou's behavior has long been known to the world, and no matter how he tries to cover it up, he is just deceiving himself.
epilogue:
People like Kong Yanzhou, they will eventually be nailed to the pillar of shame. From a larger point of view, he has no concept of loyalty and patriotism, and from a smaller point of view, he has no ethical guidelines. That is to say, Kong Yanzhou did everything that was contrary to human morality, and the only thing that awaited him was the infamy of ten thousand years.
Taking the matter of Kong Yanzhou's occupation of his own daughter, in ancient and modern China and abroad, perhaps only Kong Yanzhou is alone. Even those faint and incompetent emperors were not like Kong Yanzhou. Therefore, Kong Yanzhou is a dressed beast without ethics and morality.
