In the feudal period of war and frequent wars, dynastic changes were common. The rise and fall of each dynasty is inseparable from the patriotic generals who are brave and good at war, who fight on the battlefield, and who have been fighting horses all their lives, and these patriotic generals are not afraid of sacrifice, are upright, and have made outstanding military achievements by their own strength.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, it seemed that the surface of guotai min'an contained unknown waves, and the peace it advocated was always frequently disrupted by the sudden attacks of the Jin people.
Xiang Xiang died in the first place, and who knows the truth or falsity of his life? Liu Que mistakenly believed that his subordinates had lost completely
In the face of national difficulties, the Southern Song Dynasty emerged Yue Fei, Liu Kun and other famous generals, everyone is familiar with Yue Fei's deeds of loyalty to the country, in all kinds of propaganda, his heroic deeds are known to women and children, Yue Fei is resourceful, courtesy corporal, led the Yue family army against the Jin army famous, won the praise of future generations, after his death was posthumously awarded the title of Wu Mu.
Compared with Yue Fei's great fame, Liu Kun's fame was slightly inferior, and Liu Kun and Yue Fei were anti-Jin generals in the same period. The two were not inferior in ability, they were both great generals who were dedicated to the country, why did Liu Kun not die on the battlefield but died in grief?
For the generals who love the country and the people, their mission is to defend the country and suppress the chaos in Annei, Liu Kun has been determined since childhood, full of enthusiasm, and ambition, he wants to drive out the Jin army, make a name for himself, and ensure the peace of the Southern Song Dynasty through real talent and practical learning, but finally fell into the tragedy of tragic death. Combined with the background of the times at that time, there are three main reasons.
First: Betrayed and unfavorable
Liu Kun was born as a general, familiar with military books since childhood, and under the influence of his father, he had a lot of experience in marching and fighting and arranging troops. In the military environment, a set of military theories of its own has gradually formed. Tiger father has no dogs, Liu Kun's father made great military achievements before his death, and Liu Kun is not inferior. The son inherited his father's business, and Qing was better than blue out of blue, and when he was young, he often caught the Jin army by surprise, collapsed, and fled everywhere.
Liu Kun fought bravely and tactically peculiarly, and his unusual formation often made the Jin army invincible. In the eyes of the Jin Army, Liu Kun was an invincible and invincible general. Liu Kun worked hard and made great achievements in battle, and the Western Xia army was discouraged and did not dare to despise it. People walk by the river, where there are shoes that are not wet, even if Liu Kun is experienced in hundreds of battles and experienced, it is impossible to be foolproof.
In the Battle of Fuping, Liu Kui led an army to garrison the Deshun army, and according to the past practice, he had a great possibility of turning defeat into victory. However, the reason for his defeat was the rebellion of his subordinates, and due to internal rebellion, Weizhou was lost.
Li Yanqi's subordinates, whom he had always trusted, surrendered for various reasons, Liu Kun was surrounded by the Yuan army, Weizhou was surrendered, and Liu Kun, who had always been proud, was greatly hit!
Kun Ben turned his heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shone in the ditch, and Liu Kun was framed for the country
Second: the official arena is dirty and frequently framed
After Fuping's defeat, he was demoted and punished, from Jingyuan Jing to Zhijin Prefecture and Yanbian'an, Liu Kun's frustration came not only from the defeat, but also from the reflection of his subordinates' failure to understand the defeat. He imagined a thousand ways to deal with the Jin Army, but ignored the unity of thought for his subordinates.
Liu Kun was a corporal on a weekday, and he would never have thought that Li Yanqi would betray him under any circumstances. The misfortune was not alone, he was also demoted and demoted, and the defeat on the battlefield and the frustration in the official field made Liu Kun begin to feel dissatisfied.
After experiencing this incident, Liu Kun was even more determined to make meritorious achievements and atone for his sins, he himself had a high military talent, coupled with the lessons of failure, Liu Kun's military talents were used in a pure fire. After three years in Shaoxing, the situation was turbulent, and the ruler reinstated him as an official and ordered him to guard Shaanxi and Sichuan.
This time, Liu Kai absorbed the lessons of the army's scattered hearts, divided the cavalry into six parts, each general led a team, the responsibility was to the people, the division of labor was clear, and the generals supervised and restrained each other. This elite field army is not only well-trained and well-fought, but also does not appear to be a scene where a single person surrenders and the whole army is destroyed.
In addition, Liu Kun would also increase the interaction with his subordinates, keep abreast of the dynamics of his subordinates, when the Jin army attacked the Southern Song Dynasty, Liu Kun and his generals fought against the enemy and swore to defend the city gate to the death, and through strategy, Liu Kun skillfully won the Battle of Shunchang. This should have been his battle for the pinnacle, the battle for fame, but it became his battle for being killed!
The Southern Song Dynasty was ruled by civilians, and most of the civilian officials advocated peace, not military warfare.
The army led by Liu Kun had a great chance of victory, but under the strong persuasion of the civil officials of the imperial court, Liu Kun was forced to make a truce, and Liu Kun was defeated and angry. Looking at the favorable war situation that he had painstakingly managed, he was afraid of death and fell short because of the greed of the civil officials of the imperial court.
However, after the king's world affairs and won the posthumous name, Liu Kun was not alone, vomiting blood and dying
The third: the defection of subordinates and the framing of colleagues
Liu Kun has the country in mind and hopes to drive out the intruders as soon as possible and restore peace to the country. After yan liang, the ruler of the Jin army, heard of Liu Kun's might, he was determined to compete with him, so he led his army to compete with him. The soldiers came to block and the water came to cover the ground, and Liu Kun saw through Yan Liang's strategy one by one, and the Jin army was defeated and retreated.
At a critical moment, the general of the imperial power dispatched by Liu Kun was intimidated by the Jin army, fled from the battlefield, and did not listen to the dispatch, resulting in Liu Kun's plan being chaotic in an instant. At the time of retreat, the sudden change caught Liu Kun off guard. At this moment, he is unfortunately seriously ill, and if he is not treated in time, I am afraid that his life will soon be over!
Liu Kun had to leave temporarily, and soon after leaving, the iron army he had painstakingly built was completely destroyed, and the imperial court not only did not give him corresponding care, but let him wait for the fall and be punished. Liu Kun looked back on his life of sword and light sword shadow, up and down in the official arena, really tired and tired, if someone in the Great Song Dynasty could support Liu Kun, he would definitely be the same as before, liver and brain.
Due to the obstruction of the Lord and the faction, the rebellion of his subordinates, the war that he could have won was lost again and again! A few days later, Liu Kun vomited blood and died, and poor patriots ended up like this!
Liu Kun was a resourceful and martial arts general, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time, living in the spineless Southern Song Dynasty, he and Yue Fei fought against the Jin army and made indispensable contributions, but in the end, they were jealous and persecuted by Yu Chen because of their hard work.
When the rulers of the dynasty were incompetent, had no decision-making ability, were difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, and had no bottom line, liu kun hated jiuquan, the official field and the battlefield were completely different, the battlefield was changing rapidly, and it required enough courage to deal with it. Qin Jun's ministers were afraid that these military generals would rely on military merit and power to fall to the opposition, so they used various ways to hinder their war situation!
The development of a country not only needs the support of cultural soft power, but also the protection of hard power of force, blindly seeking peace will only accelerate the demise of the Southern Dynasty, and soon after the deaths of Liu Kai and Yue Fei, the Southern Song Dynasty is also in danger, and those who blindly seek peace will eventually end up as slaves of the country.
The rulers were faint and incompetent, and the ministers of the DPRK ignored jiangshan sheji
If Liu Kui lived in the domineering and mighty Han Dynasty or Tang Dynasty, he would have been able to make meritorious achievements and go down in history, and he would not have left in various embarrassments. The general environment led to Liu Kai's unjust death, and not only was the leadership class timid and afraid of things, but even the generals who went to battle to kill the enemy were greedy and afraid of death. From Li Yanqi to Wang Quan, we can see that they have no sense of responsibility, and they can ignore the overall situation for their own selfish interests, if it were not for the troublemaking of these people, how could Liu Kun be defeated?
What made Liu Kun extremely discouraged was the incomprehension of the imperial court, and every time the army was defeated, it had to be demoted, which made the soldiers in the blood-stained battlefield feel that their conquest was meaningless, but what they exchanged for their lives was the ruler's incomprehension, even if they fought in blood, the Southern Song Dynasty was in danger and difficult to save.
The main peace faction and the main war faction have always disagreed with each other, and they are not convinced of each other, and the main peace faction cannot see the hidden dangers brought about by the border, so they only want to have a good time, and the quiet years require the military generals to move forward with heavy loads in front of them and lead the army to fight.
What these civilian officials think of as "fighting wars, laboring the people, hurting the people, and consuming time and exerting effort" is actually a blind eye for their own selfishness. However, they ignored a substantive problem: there is no peace in weak countries, the peace they aspire to needs to pay a price, Liu Kun sees it very thoroughly, he wants to conquer the battlefield without scruples, but the king's life is difficult to violate, he has to withdraw from the battlefield many times, and gives some areas to people, so that his heart is tormented, and he also makes hidden dangers for the accumulation of labor and diseases in the future!
