What is the Son of the Plane?
The Son of the Face refers to a person who is particularly lucky, who is fierce in the event of a crime, and who is favored by Heaven, and who is on his side and helps him. In Chinese history, the only "son of the plane" is Liu Xiu.
So how did he become the son of the plane? It starts with a bat, no, it starts with a meteorite.
According to the Book of Later Han, in May of the fourth year (23 AD) of the new Mangdi Emperor, Wang Yi led an army of 420,000 to attack Kunyang. Liu Xiu took thirteen people out of the city to find rescue soldiers, and as for how he got out of the siege of 420,000 people, only Liu Xiu knew.
Liu Xiu turned around and found tens of thousands of horses to return, but these troops were simply not enough to resist the 420,000 troops. Despite the small numbers, Liu Xiu was the only one who could do it, and he rushed into Wang Mang's army with three thousand elite soldiers.
When Liu Xiu rushed in, at this time, the storm was fierce, flying sand and stones, and what was even more terrifying was that a meteorite fell from the sky and directly hit the big tent of the Chinese army.
In an instant, Wang Mang's army collapsed, and later the rescuers in Kunyang City arrived and defeated Wang Mang's army and won the war.
After understanding the whole process, posterity called Liu Xiu the "Son of the Plane", the "Great Magician", and also "Meteorite Summoning", directly summoning meteorites to fight.
The war between Liu Xiu and Wang Mang was called the "Son of the Face vs. the Crosser", and although the Crosser was very powerful, he was defeated by the Chosen Son.
After all, man is invincible!
A thousand years later, Daming appeared a "son of the wind", he is Zhu Di, when Zhu Di encounters danger, there will always be a gust of wind, turning the situation around, so that Zhu Di will turn defeat into victory.
In the second year of Ming Jianwen (1400 AD), Zhu Di and Li Jinglong's 600,000-strong army fought at the Baigou River, and Zhu Di's lone army went deep, and as a result, he was wrapped in dumplings and almost died.
Zhu Di was also disheartened and waiting to die, but at this time, suddenly the sky blew a strong wind, and this blow did not matter, and as a result, Li Jinglong's flag was hung.
In ancient times, the flag was very important, it was the spiritual pillar of an army, people could die, but the flag could not fall.
Now that the flag had fallen, the pillars of the Ming army had also fallen, and when the Ming army saw that the banner had fallen, it thought that Li Jinglong had lost, so it fled for its life in all directions, and the army collapsed. Zhu Di closed his eyes and was waiting for death, but he had not moved, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the Ming army had run away, and he didn't know what was happening.
At this time, Zhu Di reorganized his troops and horses and counterattacked, and as a result, he defeated the Ming army and won the war. In this way, Zhu Di relied on a gust of wind to save a life and win a battle.
This was only the first time, and later when Zhu Di was fighting, the sky blew again, and this wind blew directly on the Ming army, blowing so that they could not see anything, and Zhu Di killed them with a bang, just like cutting cabbage.
In short, when Zhu Di was fighting, he would always encounter strong winds, and the strong winds were all for him, helping him to win victories again and again. Therefore, Zhu Di is known as the "Son of the Wind", and his luck is really too good.
In the fourth year of Ming Jianwen (1402 AD), Zhu Di attacked Nanjing, ascended the throne and became emperor, and the history was called Ming Chengzu.
