(Sun Bing)
Sun Bing was a famous military figure in history, a descendant of Sun Wu, who wrote "The Art of War of Sun Zhi", "Taste and Learn the Art of War with Pang Juan", and their teacher was Ghost Guzi.
King Hui of Wei recruited talents, and Pang Juan came to the state of Wei and was reused as a general by King Hui of Wei. Pang Juan knew that Sun Zhi's talent was above himself, and he was afraid that he would come alone to vote for King Hui of Wei and be reused, "Nai Yin envoy summoned Sun Zhi", looking for an excuse, and punished Sun Zhi with a legal punishment, "cutting off his feet and deposing him", so that Sun Zhen became a "prisoner".
At that time, "gentlemen do not approach the criminals, and the criminals are not human", and they were regarded as lowly slaves.
When the emissaries of the State of Qi came to the State of Wei, Sun Bin secretly asked to see the emissaries of the State of Qi as a "prisoner". He briefed the emissaries of the State of Qi on what had happened to him, stated his position, and offered to leave the State of Wei. After hearing this, the emissary was very surprised, and felt that Sun Zhen was a talent and was of great use to the State of Qi, so he secretly took him back to the State of Qi by car and recommended him to the general Tian Ji.
Tian Ji was very sympathetic to his plight and left Sun Bin at home, taking good care of him. The two often talked about state and military issues together, and Tian Ji often took him to watch horse racing and archery.
During the Warring States period, cavalry was just emerging, which could not only cooperate with vehicles and infantry, but also had super mobility flexibility, which was valued by all countries.
The rulers of the State of Qi attached great importance to cavalry, and often organized horse racing entertainment, which was divided into three games, two wins and one loss were wins.
Tian Ji and King Qi Wei lost the game, and after Sun Bin watched it, he saw that this horse race was divided into upper, middle and lower grades, so he said to Tian Ji: The next time the horse race is bet on "Qianjin", during the race, the inferior horse of the jun and the superior horse of the king, the superior horse of the king and the middle horse of the king, the middle horse of the king and the inferior horse of the king. Tian Ji won two wins and one loss according to Sun Zhen's words, and won thousands of gold.
Afterwards, King Wei asked Tian Ji, and he recommended Sun Zhi to King Wei, and from then on he stepped onto the political stage of the State of Qi, serving as a military master, creating several classic examples of warfare in history, such as "encircling Wei to save Zhao" and "Ma Ling Dao beheading Pang Juan", and later living in seclusion in the Jiazi Mountains of Shandong.
Sun Bing stressed the need to govern the army with "righteousness," "benevolence," "morality," "faith," and "wisdom," strict rewards and punishments, paying attention to the selection and training of soldiers, emphasizing the military quality of generals, flexibly applying tactics, and still more importantly winning with surprise. "Shape in response to shape, positive also; Invisible and shaped, odd also. Odd positive infinity, points also. ”
Zhuge Liang, a famous military figure during the Three Kingdoms period, regarded Sun Zhen's method of helping Tian Ji to win the horse race as a method of war, saying: "Soldiers cannot be sharp, horses cannot be good, equipment cannot be strong, and it is enough to deal with it." Soldiers have upper, middle, and lower levels, and soldiers have three powers. Sun Zhi had a saying: "Take the king down and ride with him; Take the king's donkey, and the other's donkey; Take the king in the middle, and the donkey with the other. This soldier said also, not the horse said also. ”
During the Southern Song Dynasty, the famous anti-Jin general Wu Xuan and Song Gaozong discussed the "art of defeating the enemy." When Wu Xuan proposed that "the weak must go to war and the strong follow," Song Gaozong immediately pointed out: "This method of Sun Zhen's three donkeys is one defeat and two victories."
Sun Bangzuo, is the descendant of Sun Bing, living in Tai'an, grew a disc face at an early age, his eyes were shining, and he had a bit of an awe-inspiring and inviolable look in his fortitude, and he entered the juvenile, tall and majestic, heroic, and proficient in riding and shooting.
Influenced by his family's studies, he read the book of soldiers at an early age, and loved the scrolls such as Sun Wuzi, the Art of War of Sun Zhi and the Ghost Valley Zi, and concentrated on studying them and mastering their implications. He is also quite literate, proficient in Chinese and Jurchen languages, good at thinking, often has his own unique insights, and is called "the wizard of the world" by the township.
In the event of great chaos in the world, Sun Bangzuo also organized his father and fellow villagers to form a society to protect himself, and was pushed to be the leader. Based on the Lingyan Temple in Changqing, using flexible and mobile guerrilla tactics, the sound of the east attacking the west, and the Jin soldiers, Zhang Ruyi led his red jacket army to fight here, the two armies met, jointly dealt with the Jin soldiers, sometimes made gains, effectively killed and wounded the Jin soldiers.
Jin Ting's Shaanxi Road Unified Army made Yan Bi transfer to Zhidongping Prefecture and Deputy Envoy of Shandong Road Xuanfu. This Completed Yan Bi was not only good at Ma Qi, "nothing good in his life, but he liked to read, and he had leisure time to introduce Confucians, and sang songs to throw pots as usual", and this Completed Yan Cheng, Tuoman Hu Tumen, and Qishi Lieya Wuta were all his protégés, and they all "made meritorious contributions" and were mainly appeased after taking office, at this time Sun Bangzuo and Zhang Ruyu jointly protected Jinan Qinzi and other cottages, and he heard that this Sun Bangzuo was a descendant of the Spring and Autumn military master Sun Zhen.
After Yan Bi finished, he sent people to persuade him to surrender, sun Bangzuo judged the situation, consulted with Zhang Ruyi, and thought that it was the best policy to surrender temporarily, because a large number of ordinary people were gathered in the cottage, and as soon as the war broke out, the people of Li Min were deeply affected, so he wrote to Yan Bi: "My generation has made many military achievements since the army, and the lord will be jealous, framed by plots, and ambushed in the mountains and forests, so that to this day, he is really afraid of death. If washed, the bento should be released from danger, and the remaining thieves who have not surrendered will be protected. ”
Sun Bangzuo's words were actually to protect the common people from being killed.
After Yan Bi received the letter, he reported it to the imperial court, got permission, and issued an edict: "Sun Bangzuo and others were recruited and moved to five posts each."
Therefore, Sun Bangzuo and Zhang Ruyi led their troops to surrender, and then came forward to recruit the scattered Red Jacket Army Liang Jukuan and other rebels in the surrounding areas, Jin Ting initially appointed Sun Bangzuo as the remote teaching of Weizhou Assassin History, Mingwei General (Zhang Ruyu Remote Teaching Zizhou Assassin History, Mingwei General), soon, because of his meritorious recruitment, Jia Sun Bangzuo Yaozhi Tongzhi Zhiyi Capital, became the commander of Yan Bi's soldiers and horses, vigorously advocated the resistance to the Mongol soldiers and horses, united the Han people in the territory, and gave pacification to the Red Jacket "thieves" advocating not to suppress by force, giving appeasement, these people are also an important force in the fight against the Mongols and horses.
When the territory of Dongping Province was initially settled, Zhang Ruyi came to him and prepared to re-raise the banner of righteousness, and Sun Bangzuo judged the situation and said that it was not an opportunity to raise things now, and that it should be secretly prepared, waiting for the opportunity, acting cautiously, and not acting rashly, but Zhang Ruyi refused to listen and decided to oppose Jin.
Sun Bangzuo couldn't sleep all night, thinking about it, for the sake of long-term planning, he endured humiliation and burden, and told his superior Guanyan Bi about Zhang Ruyi's rebellion.
After Yan Bi ordered Sun Bangzuo to set up a "Hongmen Banquet" and asked Zhang Ruyi to discuss the matter of raising troops, Zhang Ruyi did not expect that Sun Bangzuo had betrayed him, gladly went to the banquet, drank three rounds, suddenly the bell rang, before Zhang Ruyi understood, ambushed the troops, Zhang Ruyi was chopped to death by a knife, Zhang Ruyi's entourage was killed, and it is said that more than 10,000 people under Zhang Ruyi were subsequently purged and killed.
Sun Bangzuo had prevented Yan Bi from killing innocents, but he was powerless, and Sun Bangzuo deeply repented for betraying Zhang Ruyi, which was also the pain of his life, the stain and crime that could not be washed away in his life.
Jin Ting was in Shandong, and since the death of Yan Bi, relying on Yidu Tianzhuo, Dongping Mongol Gang and Yan Ning of ShoutianshengZhai to support him bitterly, "relying on each other as auxiliary vehicles", along with "Yidu Zhang Lin chasing TianZhuo, and then (Yan) Ning (battle) died," TianshengZhai needed a general who was on his own, knowing that Dongping Province was a Mongolian gang, and strongly recommended Sun Bangzuo to take up a big post, and wrote: "(Yan) Ning's Tiansheng Village is a dangerous place for Yidu. (Yan) Ning tasted to recruit the group of thieves Hu Qi, Hu Ba, used as a dental school, entrusted with the heart, the group of thieves have the will to return. And (Yan) would rather die, and look forward to it, and Hu Qi, Hu Ba, is also uneasy. The subject took charge of Sun Bangzuo's residence in Tai'an, and the hearts of the people belonged, so they set up envoys. In order to raise control of Huang Huanwu is also the general leader, vice-head. This should be the first to play, and considering the situation to be dangerous, it is given to it. Therefore, Jin Ting appointed Sun Bangzuo as an envoy for Xuan, an envoy for the Taiding army, and a defender of Tiansheng Village.
When the Mongol king Muhuali began to fully manage Shandong, most of the prefectures and counties fell, Jin Ting was unable to resist, abandoned Dongping, the Mongol gang "internal migration", led the province of Pizhou, Sun Bangzuo was alone, and attached to Li Quan, who was then the commander of the Song Jingdong loyal rebel army, and was later squeezed by Li Quan and surrendered to Jin Ting.
According to the "History of Jin", in September of the second year of Yuan Guang, "Sun Bangzuo, a descendant, returned from Li Quanjun and was remotely entrusted with the knowledge of Dongping Province and the commander-in-chief of the Terracotta Army of The Eastern and Western Roads of Shandong", which was nothing more than to use Sun Bangzuo's prestige and ability in Shandong to support the shandong situation. For Sun Bangzuo's final fate, we cannot find an accurate record from the historical data.
Some people say that Sun Bangzuo is Sun Youbang in Shandong's "Taishan Sun Clan Genealogy Book", the character Liangfu, because Sun Bangzuo's demotion of gold is a stain on his life, and because of the Zhang Ruyi incident, nearly 10,000 former Red Jacket Army generals were killed, and there were many enemies, so when revising the score, he avoided changing it to "Sun Youbang"; Some people also say that later Sun Bangzuo returned to song, changed his name to Sun Yu, and was given the title of Chengxinlang, stationed in Tai'an Weishengzhai.
The truth of history is so confusing that we can't get a glimpse of what really happened in those years. However, the author believes that Sun Bangzuo, a boy with great ambitions in his heart, endures humiliation and burdens, thinks of the lives of the world, and later generations of corrupt Confucians criticize Sun Bangzuo, and the shallow view that he is "out of control" in politics, betraying Zhang Ruyi is unjust, and it is unfaithful to wander between the Jin and Song regimes.
Qing Shi Haohan, when Sun Bangzuo was justified, he was a person with feelings of family and country, how could he be greedy for life and afraid of death, pursuing wealth and glory.
