Friends who know history should know that Li Shimin made a Ling Yan Pavilion twenty-four heroes, those who can enter here are all amazing big people, the ability needless to say is certainly not low, one of them is a little different from other people selected, different from where, different in that he really has no background, is really relying on his own ability to climb up, to know that the other heroes are basically famous after the door, but he is not, not only is he not before because he has been arrested many times for stealing horses, so who is this person? This person is the general Liu Hongji.
Liu Hongji was very poor when he was young, in our words today, it was a typical poor dick, it was also a chaotic world at that time, because the Sui Emperor was fighting everywhere, so the pressure of the Sui Dynasty was very large, the war was to ask for money, these must be apportioned to the people, and the Sui Emperor also liked to enjoy, so this made the people even more unable to live, Liu Hongji's life at that time was also very difficult, he wanted to change his life, he wanted to think better, he saw that joining the army could eat enough food and money, He felt very good, so he wanted to be a soldier, but then he encountered a problem, and when he was a soldier, he had to go to the barracks.
At that time he was very far from the military camp, so to join the army must have a road fare, but he is poor, where is the money as a road fee, this thought about it did not think of a way to get money, just when he turned his head at that time saw a cow not far away, at this time he thought of a way, he actually killed other people's cattle to sell meat for money, to know that ancient cattle are not casually killed, everyone in watching ancient TV dramas is not often seen people eating beef in restaurants, that is impossible in reality, it is impossible to happen, Unless it is a shop opened by bandits, ancient cattle are used for farming, to know that ancient agriculture is inseparable from cattle, no cattle land can not be cultivated, so basically all dynasties and generations are explicitly forbidden to kill cattle, once anyone dares to commit suicide cattle, they will be arrested immediately.
At that time, Liu Hongji killed the cattle of others, this is a felony, so the person immediately went to report to the official, the government did not say a word directly sent someone to arrest Liu Hongji and put him in the cell, this locked liu Hongji regretted ah, but after a few days he did not regret it, why not regret it, because the cell management ah, although there is no freedom, but you can not be hungry, so he feels that it is quite good, after a long period of time Liu Hongji was released, At this time, Liu Hongji naturally did not dare to fight the idea of cultivating cattle anymore, and it was estimated that his life would not be guaranteed, at that time the world was already beginning to be chaotic, and there were many forces revolting in various places, so the war thing happened frequently, and the war was naturally going to kill people, at this time Liu Hongji saw the business opportunity.
At this time, Liu Hongji began to steal these horses that were not taken away, and after stealing the horses, they took them to sell, because this also made a lot of money, and then Li Yuan also started to fight, at this time Liu Hongji came to join Li Yuan's army, and then he joined Li Yuan's army, and Liu Hongji came into contact with Li Shimin at that time, and he felt that Li Shimin was very unusual, and he would definitely have great achievements in the future, so he had a good relationship with Li Shimin. At that time, Li Shimin saw that Liu Hongji's ability was very strong, his brain was also very bright, and his martial arts were not low, the key was that he would also buy horses, and fighting horses was an important military material, which could not be less, so Li Shimin was very important to Liu Hongji, so he let Liu Hongji be responsible for recruiting troops and buying horses, Liu Hongji was naturally very comfortable doing this, so after a short period of time, he recruited thousands of people, so that Li Yuan and Li Shimin appreciated Liu Hongji even more.
At this time, Liu Hongji became a general and followed Li Shimin around the battlefield, when fighting, Liu Hongji was very heroic, almost every time he rushed to the front, when he fought against the Sui Dynasty general Song Laosheng, he was victorious, it can be seen how powerful he was, and when Li Yuan attacked the capital of the Sui Dynasty, the Sui Emperor was forced to abdicate by Li Yuan, so he let the little prince take over, and it was not long before Li Yuan directly let the little prince step down, he directly became the emperor, and after becoming emperor, Li Yuan naturally wanted to reuse Liu Hongji At this time, Liu Hongji became a general in the DPRK, and also got a gold medal to avoid death, when the Tang Dynasty was just established, the situation was very unstable, and there were many forces around it, so the Tang Dynasty had to get rid of these forces, Liu Hongji was sent to continue the conquest at that time, Liu Hongji did not live up to the expectations of Li Yuan and Li Shimin, he had made outstanding military achievements when he conquered these forces, and made a very great contribution to the stability of the Tang Dynasty, so Later Li Shimin would pay so much attention to him.
