In the winter of the first year of the Southern Song Dynasty (1126), a middle-aged man stood on the head of today's Cangzhou City. This gentleman wears a gold helmet, gold armor, a suluo robe, and the front and back goggles are shining coldly. Foot boots, sword hanging from the waist. This person has a square face, thick eyebrows, a high nose and a wide mouth. An image of a benevolent person. However, his mouth was a surprise.
"Did all those Yandi people (that is, people in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region north of Baoding) be killed?" His tone was very gentle and calm, and he could not see any uneasiness about it. Beside him stood a general, silent.
General Du smiled coldly, "In extraordinary times, when you perform extraordinary orders, you would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one person go." If among the Yan people there are Jin people who commit adultery, my Cangzhou City will be lost. In order to protect my great Song Dynasty, I Du Mou is willing to bear this ancient infamy. ”
The general next to him said, "Those children can't always be traitors, please think twice!" Those are all ordinary people! ”
"The benevolence of the woman, the strong enemy is coming, and it must be done for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty!"
He continued, "We must know that the cities and pools of our Great Song Dynasty must not become enemy territory, and this is what every of our Great Song people must sacrifice for. I will also have a martyr's day! All those who swallow the land, men, women, young and old, are to be killed. These Yan people can only be wronged. When they arrive at the Yin Cao Mansion, don't complain about me, if they want to complain, they will complain about the Jin people, and if they want to complain, they will complain about being born in this chaotic world! ”
Saying that, this person really shed a few tears.
The following year, the General Du was transferred to the prefect of the Zhenshou Daimyo Mansion, and after taking office, the Great General Zhengyi said awe-inspiringly, "A handsome minister must not sit in a curtain, but should do things like risking the stone."
What do you mean? As a great general, instead of sitting in the back and "strategizing", he should brave the rain of arrows and thunderstones to fight with the enemy and wrap the body of Ma Ge. When the generals and officers heard this, many people were shocked, and they had not seen such a great general with such a sense of justice for a long time! That's great.
However, in the meantime, a young general smiled coldly, "Ambitious and talented, empty words to save the country, no ability to save the country!" The scourge of the world. ”
Sure enough, the little general's prophecy was right.
Not long after, Yan Zonghan (the eldest son of The Minister of State) led the Western Route Army, and Completed Yan Zongwang (the second son of Ah Kuan) led the Eastern Route Army to attack the Song Dynasty. The attack on Baoding was Completed Yan Zongwang, and the news that Yan Zongwang had led a large army made the generals of the Daimyo Mansion ask for battle to meet the enemy.
At this time, Du Chong was frightened like an earth color, and said in his heart, "Oh, how is this good?" After Yan Zong hoped to be able to conquer the world's unparalleled battles, how could this be dealt with? Well, I'll run! ”
Thinking of this, he said to the general next to him, "The thief is fierce, our army is invincible, withdraw from the Daimyo Province, we go to protect Tokyo, defend the emperor!" You should think that Tokyo is empty now, and I should go to the rescue. The emperor is our root, the loss of a city and a pool, how can there be a foundation important! "The multitude will hear the commandments and go away.
Just as this Jun was retreating, after running to the place of Sanlixu south of Shadianji in the southwest of Huaxian County, he was suddenly shocked. "If I flee in this way, the people of the world will laugh at me in shame." Moreover, the Golden Man is good at riding, and he will chase me fast. Rather, I dug the waters of the Yellow River to stop the enemy. ”
Thinking of this, this guy and his sergeants broke the levee of the Yellow River and sent the water of the Yellow River to block the Golden Soldiers.
The general, surnamed Du, was named Du Chong (?) –1141), courtesy name Gongmei, was a native of Xiangzhou (相州, in modern Anyang, Henan). The general, surnamed Du, was named Du Chong (?) –1141), courtesy name Gongmei, was a native of Xiangzhou (相州, in modern Anyang, Henan). In the third year of Jianyan (1129), after losing the territory of Jiangbei, Zhao Zhuo, instead of blaming him, made him a right chancellor. After Yue Fei was killed, Du Chong, who had surrendered to the Jin State for more than a decade, died unscathed.
History is really unfair, and such a person has a good death.
After Jing Kang's disgrace, this man succeeded the deceased Zong Ze as the remainer of Kaifeng in Tokyo. He terminated Zong Ze's Northern Expedition deployment and cut off contact and support for the northern civilian anti-Jin forces.
Shiren compared him with Zong Ze, saying, "If Zong Ze is there, then thieves can be used as soldiers, and when Du Chong uses them, then the soldiers are thieves." When Zong Ze was there, the bandits all submitted to the official army to fight for the sake of not being a slave to the country, but what about Du Chong? But all the soldiers became bandits, robbing the people and doing no evil.
Under his exclusion of dissidents, Zhang Yong, Wang Shan, and others defected one after another, and Yue Fei and others under the tent bitterly advised them not to use troops, but if they were leaders, Yue Fei would eventually have no way to repel dozens of rebels who were dozens of times larger than himself with a thousand people.
Later, he also transferred Yue Fei to Nanjing. In November of the third year of Jianyan (1129), the Jin army successfully crossed Majiadu in the south, and Du Chong fled to Zhenzhou with 3,000 men and horses. After that, he surrendered to jinguo.
In the above case, Du Chong was a traitor. He killed tens of thousands of innocent people, men, women and children. Another vicious strategy was used to dig the Yellow River to block the enemy's pursuit, thus creating a problem that has plagued Chinese for hundreds of years since then: the Yellow River has taken Huaihuai into the sea.
His order changed the direction of the Yellow River's water flow after passing through Li Gudu, and the Yellow River changed from the north into the Bohai Sea to the south into the Yellow Sea. After the Yellow River breaks its mouth, it flows into Surabaya, and then from Surabaya into the Huai River.
In terms of water potential, the Huai River is not as good as the Yellow River, so the two banks of the Huai River will inevitably break the embankment. What is more serious is that the Yellow River has a large amount of sediment, and after the sediment flow, the waterway is raised, and the original embankment facilities are invisibly lowered. Therefore, as long as the Yellow River is large, a major flood will occur in the Huaibei Plain.
As a result, disasters were caused for more than 900 years.
Remember this person's name: his name is Du Chong. This guy surrendered to Jinguo half a year later.
Since this day, dozens of counties in Henan, Anhui, Shandong, and Jiangsu provinces have become a zeal country, with the direct death toll reaching more than 200,000 and millions of people homeless. More seriously, the people of the region will endure 661 years of torture. It was not until the Ming Dynasty that the Yellow River flooded slightly better.
