Chapter 180 Really, Don’t Waste Money Subscribing These Chapters

No.14, a famous general of the Northern Song Dynasty against Xia, Yang Wenguang, the third generation of Yang family generals, whose four dimensions are 97 in force, 96 in command, 81 in intelligence, and 80 in politics.

Many interpretations describe Yang Wenguang as the fourth generation of the Yang family, the grandson of Yang Yanzhao, and the son of Yang Zongbao. In fact, this is not the case. Both Yang Zongbao and Mu Guiying in "The Romance of the General of the Yang Family" written by Xiong Damu in the Ming Dynasty are fictional and real. There is no such person in history. The son of Yang Liulang and Yang Yanzhao is actually Yang Wenguang.

Sanmao himself is a genuine descendant of the Yang family, as evidenced by the "Yang Family Tree". Sanmao once went to the family ancestral hall to look for the old grandpa who was in charge of the care.

Yang Wenguang was born in the second year of Xianping (999) and died in the seventh year of Xining (1074). Yang Yesun, a general who resisted the Liao Dynasty in the early Song Dynasty, Bai Shouyi believed that he was the third son of Yang Yanzhao (Zeng Gong's "Longping Collection" said: "The biography of his son was recorded There are differences between Yong, Dezheng, and Wenguang."), Yang Wenguang took his father's shadow as an official.

In the third year of Emperor Renzong of Song Dynasty (1043), Zhang Hai led an uprising of hungry people in southern Shaanxi, and moved to southern Shaanxi, western Henan, and northwestern Hubei. Yang Wenguang went out with the army according to the order of officials Therefore, Yang Wenguang's official position at that time may be a small official position such as the Imperial Army.After returning from this expedition, Yang Wenguang was promoted to Dianzhi, a military officer with a lower rank than the enshrined officer, with his military merits.In four years (1044), Fan Zhongyan, who promoted the "New Deal", was appointed as the Xuanfu envoy of Shaanxi and Hedong Road.In the first month of the following year, Fan Zhongyan dismissed his prime minister and took up the post of magistrate of Binzhou (now Binxian County, Shaanxi Province) and comfort envoy of Shaanxi Fourth Road.During this period, Fan Zhongyan had a conversation with Yang Wenguang, and was amazed by his military talent, so he placed him under his command.

However, one year before this year (1044), the Song Dynasty and Xixia had successfully negotiated peace, and the Song Dynasty paid more than [-] "year-old coins" silver, tea, and silk for "peace".Yang Wenguang also lost the opportunity to kill the enemy and serve the country.

In the fourth year of Emperor Renzong Zhao Zhenhuangyou (1052), Di Qing, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council who was born in the army, used the identity of Xuanfu Envoy of Jinghu South and North Roads, and promoted Guangnan East and West Roads to control thieves and thieves. The rebellion of the barbarian leader Nong Zhigao in present-day Nanning City, Guangxi.Di Qing selected Shaanxi soldiers and horses to go to Guangnan to assist in the battle. At that time, Yang Wenguang, the magistrate of the Deshun Army (now Longde County, Ningxia) (the state official is the magistrate, the government official is the magistrate, and the officer is the magistrate) was transferred to Guangxi Qianju ( That is, the commander of the Guangxi Temporary Theater).

Later, he moved to Zuozangkushi and brought imperial equipment—this is also the honorary rank of a military officer, and he has no actual position. Such as "Beijing envoy" is slightly higher.

During the Zhiping period (1064-1067) after Song Yingzong Zhao Shu succeeded to the throne, the imperial court appraised generals from all over the country. Zhao Shu said: "Wen Guang, after a famous general, has meritorious service." The commander of the four chambers of the Dragon Guard—this is the commander of the infantry cavalry of the Guards Division of the Imperial Guard of the Imperial Army. It used to be a relatively important military officer position, leading more than 1 troops. However, during Yingzong's time, it was already a general.

Later, Yang Wenguang was promoted to the defense envoy of Xingzhou (now Lueyang, Shaanxi) and the deputy governor of Qinfeng Road (the jurisdiction is equivalent to today's western Shaanxi, southern Ningxia, and central and southern Gansu).In the first year of Song Shenzong Zhao Xuxining (1068), Han Qizuo, the envoy of Shaanxi Economic Strategy, asked to build a castle to protect the residents on the northwest border of Qinzhou and prevent the invasion of Xixia party members, and the imperial court approved it.

In July, Han Qi sent Yang Wenguang, deputy chief of Qinfeng Road, to build a city about 180 five miles northwest of Qinzhou (now Tianshui City, Gansu).Because the Song army built the castle before, the Xixia party members would send troops to destroy the project.So Yang Wenguang adopted the strategy of attacking the west, threatening to go to a certain place to build the Penzhu City, and the Xixia army went to destroy it.筚篥.

However, seeing that the Song army was heavily defended and unable to advance, he had to retreat. However, he left a letter claiming to go back and request tens of thousands of cavalry to drive away the Song city-building troops. This was a rogue threat. Yang Wenguang immediately sent troops to hunt down Xixia party Xiang. Army, the Xixia soldiers were defeated, and the Song army killed many people.Someone asked him why he wanted to pursue the enemy. Yang Wenguang said: "The ancestors had the spirit of seizing others. This must be fought for. If the enemy knows it and takes advantage of it, it will not be possible."

After this blow, the party members did not dare to make trouble again.In September of that year, the three castles of Gangu and Qiaozhen were built, and they were praised by the imperial edict of Song Shenzong Zhao Xu, and the city of Qizhen was named Tongwei Castle (now [-] miles northeast of Longxi, Gansu).Since then, Yang Wenguang has successively served as the magistrate of Jingzhou (now Beiqili, Jingchuan County, Gansu) and the magistrate of Zhenrong Army (now Guyuan County, Ningxia).

In December of the third year of Xining (1070), Yang Wenguang was changed to be the governor of Quanzhou (now Fuxian County, Shaanxi Province) -- acting magistrate.Later, he moved from the northwest frontier defense to the Hebei frontier defense, served as the deputy chief of the capital of Dingzhou Road (where the government is located in Ding County, Hebei Province), and was promoted to the capital of the guard infantry - and returned to the place where his grandfather and father served.In March of the seventh year of Xining (1074), there was a silence of about 30 years. The Liao-Song border and its disputes—as early as the second year of Song Renzong Zhaozhen Qingli (1042), Liao Xingzong Yeluzong Zhen saw that the Song Dynasty was repeatedly defeated by Xixia , took the opportunity to threaten, and demanded that the Song Dynasty cede Jinyang and ten counties to the south of Waqiaoguan—this Jinyang is not where Taiyuan City in Shanxi is today, because if it is indeed the place, Waqiaoguan is in Xiongxian County, Hebei today. The distance between them is more than a thousand miles, so how can they be more than ten counties?

However, "Song History" and "Continued Zizhi Tongjian" both say: "Jinyang and ten counties south of Waqiao", it is suspected that "Jinyang" should be "Gaoyang", and Gaoyang is five or six south of Xiongxian County, Hebei today. Shili is the location of Hebei Bianguan. Nearby are Xiongzhou, Gaoyang, Mozhou, Boye, Baozhou, Rongcheng, Baodingjun, Ansu, Wangdu, Suicheng, and Bazhou, with a radius of about [-] square kilometers. It is estimated that The land claimed by the Liao Dynasty should be this land.

Renzong Zhao Zhen urgently ordered Minister Fu Bi to negotiate, and added 20 "year-old coins" (30 silver, 75 silk), and finally got another [-] years of "peace".Today, the Liao Dynasty sent envoys to the Song Dynasty to fight for the boundary of the River East.The deputy governor of Dingzhou Road, Yang Wenguang, presented the formation map and the strategy to seize the Youyan area. The imperial court had not had time to approve and reply. In November of that year, Yang Wenguang died of illness.At the age of [-].After his death, the imperial court posthumously served as the observation envoy of Tongzhou.

No. 15 people, Meng Liang, the second generation of Yang family general Yang Yanzhao in the Northern Song Dynasty, was subordinate to Meng Liang. His four dimensions were force 85, commander 71, intelligence 72, and politics 69; Meng Liang was originally the king of the banana mountain, but the king of the mountain was not Not just two of them, but four of them. The big king, Huadao Yue Sheng, is skilled in martial arts and has the talent to lead soldiers. Meng Liang is the second child. , Jiao Zan is the third child and the earliest king of the mountain. When he went down the mountain, he met Meng Liang and admired his martial arts. It was no match for him, so Yue Sheng became the king.
