During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there were two particularly outstanding military generals, one was Hailancha and the other was Urden. Both of them were of similar age, and both performed particularly well in the Battle of Jinchuan. Later, after the victory of the war, they returned to the capital, and Qianlong was very happy to reward them.
When Qianlong asked them what reward they wanted, Highlander replied that he wanted beauty, while Urden replied that he wanted to lead the troops for the emperor to pacify the four sides. Highlander's answer made Qianlong very satisfied, but Urden's answer suddenly made Qianlong suspicious. Later, the two men suffered defeats on the battlefield one after another, and Qianlong chose to demote hailancha to an official position, but cut off Urden's head.
During the period of China's feudal society, there were also frequent wars between countries and countries. In particular, the larger countries are surrounded by small countries, and they are constantly invading the borders of large countries. In ancient China, weapons were mainly cold weapons, so the success or failure of the war mainly depended on the number of people, and then the command ability of the generals.
Therefore, in ancient China, every dynasty had some highly capable warriors, and the Qing Dynasty was no exception. There were two famous warriors of the Qing Dynasty, one named Hailancha and the other named Urden. Highlander has experienced many wars of all sizes in his life, and in the course of these wars, he has accumulated more and more combat experience and his own set of strategies.
He was only a small soldier in the army in the early days, but he was very fond of studying the art of war from that time on. So his success in the future does not only come from his talent, but also from his efforts. He was a brave and resourceful general who, in his 30s, twice fought against the invasion of burmese troops.
In the process of these two battles, they made a great contribution, so there was also a certain promotion in the military camp. Later, after another four or five years, he traveled through Yunnan to Sichuan to participate in the famous Battle of Jinchuan. The campaign lasted a long time, a total of five years.
In the beginning, the Battle of Jinchuan occurred because two local ethnic minorities, who were conflicted by the division of territory, began to fight. The Qing Dynasty, as the central government at that time, decided to send troops to mediate the war between the two sides, but in fact, it was to control and control the area of Jinchuan.
In the course of these five years, Highlander has accumulated remarkable achievements. After the end of the war, the banshi returned to the dynasty, and Highlander was rewarded by Qianlong. Qianlong said that Highlander had made great contributions to the country and asked him what kind of reward he wanted. Highlander responded that it was his duty to serve the country as a subject.
He had no other extravagant things to ask for, and if the emperor had to reward him with something, he might as well give him a few. This remark made Qianlong's heart blossom, not only giving him many beauties to his palace, but also promoting him to an official position.
In fact, those who contributed to the Battle of Jinchuan were not only Highlander but also Urden. Urden was also a very good warrior and had a great set of combat commands. The difference between Urden and Highlander is that Highlander's family situation is relatively ordinary. Highlander went through his own experience from the lowest level in the barracks before he slowly climbed up step by step.
But Urden had a very good family background, so when he was very young, he read a lot of military books, learned a lot of martial arts, and had teachers teach him. At that time, in the course of the Battle of Jinchuan, Hailancha first went to Jinchuan and became the main commander of the battle. But later, I did not expect that in the process of mediation, several parties fell into a scuffle.
He was seriously injured and had to retire from the front line to recuperate. At such a juncture, another outstanding general was needed to continue to command the campaign, so the imperial court sent Urden again. Although Both Urden and Highlander were in charge of the Battle of Jinchuan, there was no case of mutual credit between the two men, but they cooperated very well.
Later, after returning to the imperial court, Qianlong also wanted to reward Urden, so he asked Urden what reward he wanted. Urden was born in a family of officials and eunuchs since he was a child, and from the day he first entered the DPRK as an official, he thought in his heart to serve the country and stabilize the four sides.
Therefore, after asking him, he immediately replied that he wanted to command the military power for the emperor and threaten the four sides. This may not seem wrong with Urden's own answer, but it makes Qianlong unhappy at once, but he, as the head of a country, did not directly reveal his emotions.
Since ancient times, military power has been regarded as very important in the eyes of the emperor, because only by completely taking the military power in his own hands does it mean having complete dominance and control over the country. Therefore, when it was mentioned that he wanted to have a higher official position, it immediately made Qianlong suspicious of his thoughts.
In ancient China, the princes had the opportunity to ascend to the throne through particularly cruel hook-and-heart fights and open and secret struggles. For Qianlong, it is also like this. So he is also a very suspicious person. Of course, he also gave Walden a reward, but that was not the military power Walden wanted.
In the system of Chinese feudal society, the status of the emperor was transcendent. Therefore, those who lived around him, especially the court ministers who worked for him, needed to try to guess and grasp the emperor's heart. Because only by making the emperor happy can the courtiers survive and receive some rewards.
Compared with these two military generals during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, it is clear that Highlander understands more clearly what he is thinking. Therefore, Highlander deliberately said that he liked beauty and did not touch Qianlong's brow. But Urden, because he unabashedly revealed his ambitions, made Qianlong begin to be jealous of him.
Later, both Highlander and Urden suffered defeats on the battlefield, while Qianlong's personal treatment of the two of them was very different. The Qianlong Emperor only demoted his official position but cut off Urden's head.
Both Hiranta and Urden were very good at leading soldiers in battle, and both had their own highlight moments in their careers as officials. But what I didn't expect was that the ending of the last two people was completely different. Ur Deng and Hailancha were worse than those who did not consider the problem from the perspective of the Qianlong Emperor.
Once Urden stood in Qianlong's perspective, he would find that the loyalty he had in mind to serve the country might actually be a great hidden danger and threat in Qianlong's eyes. Urden was not reused because of this matter, which was also a kind of burial for him.
