Many peasant uprisings in history have brought heavy blows to the rulers, such as the famous Chen Sheng Wu Guangzexiang Uprising, the Shuipo Liangshan Songjiang Uprising, the Li Zicheng Uprising, and so on.
But these uprisings always seem to be mostly failures, and many of the stories in them have elements of later interpretation and exaggeration, such as the most famous story of Shui Po Liang Shan, in real history, it is actually a small riot on the scale of 36 bandits.
In the uprisings with greater influence and more deductive components in later generations, in addition to the story of Shuipo Liangshan, it belongs to the story of Wagangzhai, but the story of Shuipo Liangshan is mostly false, but the story of Wagangzhai is so mysterious in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, in fact, he is indeed very powerful, and most of the characters are real.
Wagangzhai claims to have 64 heroes and good men, which everyone is more familiar with, mainly some people who later belonged to the Tang Dynasty, such as Wei Zheng, Qin Qiong, Xu Maogong, Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji, Zhang Liang and others, Wenchen Wu will be said to be famous, the above six in addition to Hou Junji, are selected as the twenty-four heroes of Lingyange.
It shows how many heroes and good men were sniped in Wagangzhai at that time, and they were all real people who could fight good battles and have both wisdom and courage, but why did the Wagang heroes with such a luxurious lineup finally fail in the chaos of the last years of the Sui Dynasty?
This brings us to a person, a soul figure who did not say it just now but is The soul of Wagangzhai, Li Mi, in the real history, he single-handedly created the glory of Wagangzhai, but in the end, because of his personal reasons, led to the failure of Wagangzhai.
The train ran fast, all by the headband, Wagang could become the largest anti-Sui rebel army at that time, Li Mi's credit was the greatest, but in fact, Li Mi was not the founder of Wagang Village.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" > is set for life at a glance</h1>
We now use love at first sight to describe between men and women, just by looking at it, there is an incurable liking, this feeling is very suspenseful, very wonderful, but it does exist, and a large number of facts have proved that love at first sight will happen.
Love is beautiful, reality is cruel, there is love at first sight in the beautiful, there is also a look in the cruelty that is very annoying, if this person is an ordinary person, then it does not matter, but if the person who looks at you is the emperor, then this eye is like five thunderbolts.
Li Mi is such a very sad person, he is also a proper aristocratic origin, the ancestors were one of the eight pillar states of Western Wei at that time, and then slowly declined a little, plus his father died a little early, but after all, it was Li Mi who washed the title, and his life was still very good.
And because of the shadow of the ancestors, he did the emperor's guard, thousands of cattle, although this is for the emperor to stand guard, but it is a very promising profession, you can become the emperor to stand guard, that must be the emperor's trusted person, Li Yuan has also done a thousand cattle preparation, Li Yuan's son-in-law Chai Shao is also from this position, and even this kind of guard itself is tailor-made for these meritorious children.
But Li Mi, the person, did not know what was going on, once the Sui Emperor passed by him and took a look at Li Mi, which was not a glance of love at first sight, but a fatal glance.
Back in the palace, he told his close minister Yuwen that the eyes of the black-faced child in the guard just now were very abnormal, and he should not be allowed to stand guard here in the future.
This is called fate, the emperor took a look at you, immediately did not like you, a very promising career has since been broken, Li Mi has since returned home and liked to read, in short, it is a creation of people, Li Mi's wisdom and diligence, are all looked at by a big bull man at that time, he is the most powerful Yang Su in the dynasty.
Yang Su was a founding hero and a staunch supporter of the Succession of Yang Guang, the Sui Emperor, who at that time could be said to be a powerful figure in the imperial court, Yang Su admired Li Mi very much, and often praised Li Mi in front of his children, and this Li Mi became good friends with Yang Su's son Yang Xuangan.
If there were not so many things later, yang Su appreciated this matter, perhaps it would become a new starting point for Li Mishi's journey, but in the end, a series of actions by the Sui Emperor made the Sui Empire crumbling, and Yang Xuangan was a person who could not hold his breath, he took the lead in attacking and rebelled, at this time Yang Su had already mourned and prepared to die.
At this point, Yang Xuangan was not as good as Li Yuan, Li Yuan could endure, but Yang Xuangan had to be the head bird, Yang Xuangan's rebellion must pull Li Mi, but Li Mi gave the advice Yang Xuangan did not listen, one of the strategies was to take Chang'an directly, but Yang Xuangan insisted on attacking the eastern capital Luoyang, and finally from the uprising to the defeat, only two months, Li Mi deeply felt that Yang Xuangan was a fool.
But scolding, Li Mi because of his participation in the rebellion, can be regarded as a complete escapee of the Sui Dynasty, many years later he made the same mistake as Yang Xuangan, then maybe he can also feel the strength of fate.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="24" > Li Mi is not Song Jiang</h1>
Li Mi, who was on the run, finally felt what it was to call people cold and warm, and he had been to many places, there were cold and enthusiastic, and even worked as a rural teacher, but in the end because of his identity as a fugitive, he could not last long.
He had also been to an anti-Sui force, but he was not willing, and later Li Mi finally understood that for a ship without direction, the wind in any direction was a headwind, so after careful consideration, he set his sights on a place called Wagangzhai.
Absorbing the past experience, Li Mi did not spend a single soldier in Wagangzhai and acquired several small cottages around him, which was a big gift to zhai, the boss of the cottage at that time, so Li Mi quickly entered the decision-making level of the cottage and smoothly became the second boss.
Don't look at the wagangzhai hero Haojieduo, but when it comes to wisdom and strategy, everyone can't add up to Li Mi, it may be that Li Mi is really superior in intelligence, and such a person is destined to be restless, especially in the chaotic world.
However, soon after becoming the second boss, he soon discovered that Zhai Rang was a person who did not want to make progress, and Li Mi repeatedly proposed plans to Zhai Rang to seize the world, but Zhai Rang refused.
Zhai Rang's meaning is very clear, I just want to be a small rich and peaceful cottage leader, in this chaotic world, I have no worries about food and clothing, as for taking over the world, I am not interested.
Li Mi saw that this was really not OK, this still had to be the boss himself, in the story of the Water Margin, it was the boss Chao Gai who died, and Song Jiang only became the boss, but Zhai Let's eyes were very hard and he couldn't die.
So Li Mi gave full play to the characteristics of superstition at that time, hiring people to make up all kinds of proverbs and ballads, that means that Li Mi will take over the world.
Or find some trust, pretend to be from a big place far away to defect to Li Mi, saying that Li Mi's prestige has spread far and wide, with Li Mi's self-packaging, plus Li Mi is very smart, very good at fighting, occupying the two major granaries of the Sui Dynasty, Xingluo Warehouse and Hui Luocang, relying on two large granaries, Wagangzhai rapid expansion, soon became the largest anti-Sui force at that time, of course, at this time Li Yuan was still dormant.
Seeing that the time was ripe, the original brothers of Wagangzhai were also almost compiled by Li Mi, and Zhai Rang also felt that his ability was limited, so he gave up his position as the boss along the water, and since then Li Mi has become the big boss of WagangZhai and opened the glorious years of Wagangzhai.
At its peak, many rebels in the world had nominally returned to Wagangzhai, and even when Li Yuan first started his army, he had to write a letter to Li Mi, praising him as the co-lord of the world, etc. Rainbow Fart was really fragrant.
If this continues, Li Mi may really seize the world, but Li Mi has made two mistakes, which may be helpless, but mistakes are mistakes, and it is these two mistakes that led to the final demise of Wagangzhai.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="39" > two major mistakes</h1>
Li Mi's first mistake was to kill Zhai Rang, which made many brothers in Wagangzhai chill and loosen the foundation of Li Mi's rule.
To tell the truth, killing Zhai Ran is a last resort, just like in the movie "Letter of Submission", Jet Li said, there can only be one head in an army, and only one person can listen to the orders.
But you a former leader of Wagangzhai poking there, if the cottage develops well, but this is after all a war, where there is always a reason for victory, after encountering some failures and setbacks, there are always people who miss the previous days, although the previous days were not necessarily good, but people will still miss, this is the general psychology of people, until now it is still the case.
No matter what Zhai Rang really thinks, as long as he lives, there will always be people who make a fuss about his identity, which is also a very helpless thing for Zhai Rang.
In the end, in order to be able to ban the ban and to unify the cottage, Li Mi killed Zhai Rang, but this moment, Li Mi was charged with unkindness and injustice, although there was nothing on the surface, but privately the brothers still discussed each other, which also increased the inducement for his strategic decision-making mistakes.
At that time, the Sui Dynasty, the Sui Emperor was like an ostrich, hiding in Jiangdu, there were rebellions everywhere, but there were only a few important towns in the world, especially the capital cities of Chang'an and Luoyang at that time, were still in the hands of the Sui Dynasty, who could occupy these two capital cities, the energy that commanded the world would be much greater.
When Yang Xuangan rebelled, Li Mi suggested that he take Chang'an so that he could take the world, but Yang Xuangan did not listen and had to attack Luoyang, and now it was Li Mi's turn to choose strategy, but he did not expect that Li Mi also chose to capture Luoyang.
Luoyang was the official capital of the Sui Dynasty at that time, the Sui Dynasty was originally the capital of Chang'an, but the Sui Emperor forcibly moved the capital to Luoyang, in fact, there were two capitals, Chang'an and Luoyang, but most of the active officials were in Luoyang, and the roots of the Guanlong clique were in Chang'an.
The reason why Li Mi did not attack Chang'an was also his bitterness, the Wagangzhai and his coalition army he was leading now looked like a famous general, with a large number of people, but they were all shandong disciples, they had no great interest in Chang'an, they cared more about Luoyang, and there were two large granaries nearby, and there was everything if there was grain.
More importantly, Li Mi did not dare to lead some of his men and horses to attack Chang'an, he was afraid that once he left this place, he would not be able to control these soldiers and horses, after all, they were essentially bandits, a group of outlaws.
Strategically, Li Mi had been trying to capture Luoyang, and hundreds of thousands of troops besieged Luoyang, but they could not be attacked for a long time, and the armies of Wagangzhai and Sui Dynasty had their own victories and losses.
But the ostrich also has a day of awakening, the Sui Emperor can watch many places lost, but Luoyang he can not ignore it, so the Sui Emperor finally put the elite troops he can mobilize, all to rush to the aid of Luoyang, such a strategy, has doomed Li Mi's defeat, victory or defeat is not in the victory or defeat of several battles, Luoyang is not able to attack for a long time, coupled with the sui Dynasty's fresh forces to join, Luoyang is doomed to be unable to fight.
Here, the Sui Emperor ordered that all the troops that rushed to his aid were dispatched by Wang Shichong, and this famous sui general eventually declared himself emperor in Luoyang after the death of the Sui Emperor and became Li Tang's greatest enemy.
When Li Mi and Wang Shichong were dead, Li Yuan picked up the leak and had already captured Chang'an, while Luoyang could not be attacked for a long time, and with the arrival of Sui Dynasty reinforcements, Li Mi's defeat was inevitable.
In the end, Li Mi still lost everything, Wang Shichong relied on Luoyang, took the initiative to attack and finally defeated Li Mi, and Li Mi, who had nowhere to go, finally chose to defect to Li Yuan.
I don't know what the Sui Emperor saw in Li Mi's eyes, but it turned out that Li Mi was really not a person who had lived under the people for a long time, and after he defected to Li Yuan, although he was given idle posts.
Li Yuan has his own team, it is impossible for Li Mi to entrust him with a heavy responsibility as soon as he comes, this is a bandit leader, but Li Yuan is not stupid, knows the value of Li Mi, in order to win over Li Mi, he also married his cousin Du Gushi to Li Mi.
In fact, with Li Mi's talents, as long as you wait patiently, there will definitely be a time to show your grand plans, and look at his subordinates who later surrendered, you know that in the turbulent years, as long as you have the ability and will fight, there will always be a chance.
Moreover, at that time, the Tang Dynasty had just been established, it was the time to employ people, after the unification of China, there were many opportunities to continue to fight the surrounding areas, but Li Mi was too anxious, and finally could not wait for Li Yuan to reuse him, under the banner of recovering the old department, anti-Tang.
At this time, the hearts of the people in the world have long changed, you descended to Tang and then opposed Tang, but it is different from the gathering of people who echoed in Wagangzhai, and finally Li Mi was killed by the Tang general Sheng Yanshi and passed to Chang'an.
This result also led to the demotion of Xu Maogong, another heavyweight in Wagangzhai, and after obtaining Li Yuan's permission, Xu Maogong, who remembered his old feelings, buried Li Mi five miles southwest of Liyang Mountain, with a grave height of seven yuan, when Li Mi was thirty-seven years old, and his brilliant and short life ended.
Li Mi died, the story of the hero of Wagang continues, how far-reaching the influence of Wagang on the Tang Dynasty, let's say this Xu Maogong, he has another name called Xu Shijie.
It was he who later supported Li Zhi on behalf of the army in the matter that Li Zhi wanted to make Wu Zetian empress, and as a result, Wu Zetian became empress, and then became the only female emperor in China, and the influence of Wagangzhai could be as far-reaching as it was, I am afraid that Li Mi did not expect it at that time.
About Li Mi, what do you want to say, welcome to leave a message to communicate.
