Yuan Hao Proclaims Emperor

The Dangxiang people firmly positioned themselves as their ministers since Tuoba Sigong. Even if the Tang Dynasty fell to just a grass in Zhu Wen's hand, they humbly claimed that my surname was "Li". Once the Han people were revived, they immediately sent envoys to pay tribute and surrender to Zhao Kuangyin. This sense of surrender for generations did not disappear until the rise of the Dangxiang hero Li Jiqian, and Li Deming dared not go beyond the thunder pool... He was actually an emperor but did not dare to be called the emperor!

But Li Yuanhao did not. With the help of Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao, Li Yuanhao completed the last practical thing before the founding of the country: improve the official system: Wei Ming Shouquan, Zhang Zhi, Yang Kuo, Xu Minzong, Zhang Wenxian is the main subject of discussion; Zhong Dingchen Dian Documents; Cheng Puke, Cheng Sheng Capital is the main commander of military and horses; Ye Li Ren Rong is the main commander of Fan Xue (except Wei Ming and Ye Li are the two Dangxiang people, the rest are Han people)

Another 18 Military Supervisor Office was established: from Hebei to Woloniang Mountain, 70,000 people were prepared for the Khitan. Henan Hongzhou, Baibao, Anyanzhou, Luoluo, Tiandu, and only Jingshan was 50,000 people to prepare for the Huanqing, Zhenrong and Yuanzhou. On the left, 50,000 people were prepared for the Yuzhou Road, 30,000 people were prepared for the Fuyan, Lin, and Mansion. On the right, Ganzhou Road, 30,000 people were stationed in the Western Fan, Uighurs, Helan stationed 50,000 troops, Lingzhou, and 70,000 people were guarding the county. The total was more than 500,000. He fought hard in Yishan E. Shane, the Qiang of Hengshan. The Xia soldiers were soft and crisp, and they were not as good as the ones. He selected 5,000 people to be arched and horses, and was named Six Banzhi, giving 2 stones of rice a month. The iron cavalry was 3,000, and divided into 10 units. He sent troops to summon chiefs with silver medals, and was constrained on the face. The 16th department was founded in Xingzhou to generalize public affairs.

Li Yuanhao's cunning and fierceness have been elevated to the level of talented and powerful strategy...

On March 1, 1038, Han Yi, Shi Zhongli, Wang Sui and Chen Yaozuo, who were from the Old Man Gang, were dismissed together. In the new list, Song Renzong was still arbitrary and did not use any of the people Han Qi said. Prime Minister: Zhang Shixun, Zhang Dexiang; Political Affairs Officer: Cheng Lin, Wang Jiao, Li Ruogu; Privy Councillor: Wang Deyong, Sheng Du; Privy Councillor: Chen Zhizhong, Wang Bowen; Sansi Envoy: Xia Shu.

"The dragon map and the two tears fell in front of the king" Wang Bowen was finally ranked among the two palaces and became the chief minister. But the good days were too short. Just 36 days later, on April 7, this person died in the Privy Council. "I will die and I will no longer be able to look at the gates of the two palaces." It was so amazing. Was this person's original pain predicted? On the 9th, his position was succeeded by Zhang Guan.

On April 3, due to Princess Xingping's death, Emperor Xingzong of Liao sent Yelu Shucheng to question her son-in-law, King Xia Li Yuanhao. But in fact, the couple's relationship has always been in a bad mood. Li Yuanhao never took this Khitan princess to heart, and now he is planning the great cause of becoming an emperor and establishing a country, so he perfunctorily sent Yelu Shucheng. This also laid the foreshadowing of the evil between Liao and Xia...

On September 16, on the eve of Li Yuanhao's proclaiming himself emperor and founding the country, his uncle Wei Mingshan suddenly surrendered to the Song Dynasty. The uncle was both wise and brave, loyal, and was always Li Yuanhao's right-hand man. However, helping him in war was different from helping him in founding the country. Wei Mingshan was seriously unsure. So he had a loyal attack and kept admonishing: Don't rebel. Li Yuanhao did not turn against him, but said a few words to his other uncle Wei Mingweixu, asking him to falsely accuse Wei Mingshan of rebellion, so that there would be a more formal reason to behead him.

Wei Mingshan got the news first, and brought the whole family and a large number of treasures, as well as the more important news of Li Yuanhao's rebellion. In theory, this person must be saved and sent to the capital immediately. At least this is a living map, and all the information of the Western Xia army was in his mind, a priceless treasure!

But Guo Guan, the governor of Yanzhou in the Song Dynasty, was not uncommon for Li Wei to be under the jurisdiction of Fuyan Lujin, so he actually sent Wei Mingshan back to his country and returned to Li Yuanhao. As a result, the whole family was shot and killed on the border of Songxia, allowing the Dangxiang people to see the fate of the traitor and the cowardice of the Song Dynasty.

On November 12, Feng Shenji quelled the barbarian rebellion in Anhua, Guangxi.

On November 18, the grandest suburban ceremony of the Renzong Dynasty began. This included too many officials' efforts and the emperor's own experience in the job of the Chinese emperor, that is, the importance of etiquette.

Etiquette is actually a pomp, that is, what kind of people use a list of pomp. The ancient Chinese believe that as long as the pomp, the order will be established and the legal system will be established, from top to bottom, from superior to low, and whoever listens to whom will be in charge will be clear. Only by relying on this to manage can the masses avoid or even eliminate the rebellion by force, and the following make mistakes that are neither big nor small. Therefore, the country of etiquette always declares that "weapons are ominous things, and saints do not have to do it themselves." Unlike the barbaric Western society, their religions are aimed at power and call on their own believers to invade other countries as a means to plunder wealth, such as the Crusades.

Such a profound understanding will be truly detailed and detailed in the works of Master Sima in the future, and summarized them into a collection to educate the emperors of all ages. What is the most important thing? That is, the emperor can have no army, no economy, and no everything. As long as there is etiquette, he will have no worries about everything. "Therefore, the position of the emperor is greater than etiquette" - The opening words of the first volume of "Zizhi Tongjian"

After a lot of hardships, the ceremony was held as scheduled, it was brilliant and grand, and it was very successful. An exciting decision was also issued at the conference. The emperor decided to change the era name: Baoyuan.

The etiquette was so great that guests from all over the world were in court, and the arrogant Dangxiang Li Yuanhao also wrote a congratulatory statement from thousands of miles away. The king and minister of the Song Dynasty read it carefully, and their mood changed with the words:

"My ancestors originally had emperors, and they were the last fortune of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and created the first foundation of the Later Wei Dynasty." This is the beginning. What are you doing? Li Yuanhao emphasized that he has the emperor's bloodline? From the Northern Wei Dynasty?

"The distant ancestor Sigong, when Tang Ji led his troops to save the disaster, he was granted a surname. Zu Jiqian launched a large number of righteous flags and surrendered to various tribes, captured five towns in Linhe, and was in the seven states along the way. His father Deming followed the world's foundation and forced to follow the court orders. But the minister occasionally planned to write Kuangfei, and made small-bank writings and changed the clothes and clothes of the Han Dynasty. After the clothes and clothes, the words were in line, the rituals and music were in full swing, and the utensils were prepared, and the utensils were prepared. Tubo, Tatar, Zhangye, Jiaohe, all of them followed the utensils." Hum? Zhao Zhen and others were even more dizzy. Li Yuanhao was also engaged in etiquette? Clothes, words, rituals and music, and the utensils were very authentic? So many races surrendered to him?

"If you are the king, you are not happy, but the emperor of the court followed. After many reunions, the mountains were called together. I hope to build a country with a land of ten thousand chariots... So on October 11, the suburbs were prepared for the rituals of the suburbs, and the Emperor Ren and Xiao were established for the text of the Emperor of the Emperor, and the reign of the Emperor of Heaven and the title of Heaven was the emperor. "What? Li Yuanhao rebelled? He was the emperor? He was the emperor before the Song Dynasty ceremony in November? Is this a joke? Or is it too failed to carry out etiquette and was taken over by others?

"I hope that His Majesty the Emperor, wisdom and wise men, be kind and kind, and promised to be the king of the west suburbs, and be the king of the south. I dare to exhaust my stupidity and be happy and always be happy. Fish and geese come and go, and I can pass on the voice of neighboring countries. The land will last forever, and I will always keep the border guards. I sincerely and willingly, and wait for Emperor Yu." This is actually true. What is the law of nature? What is moral etiquette? We are doing our best to organize etiquette, and the show has been played thousands of people, but why are there still rebellions? Zhou Gongdan, Confucius! Isn't the method of unwavering forever taught?

The surprise quickly turned into anger. This was the natural way of thinking that the Han-centered thoughts lasted for more than 2,000 years. I am the biggest and dominant. As long as I dare to compete for my position, I will not only die, but also die with the most vicious infamy! Defeat Li Yuanhao and destroy the Dangxiang people! Everyone is united. But the whole nation should pay attention to it and never say the word "Daxia". This is the country name that Li Yuanhao gave himself. From then on, the Xixia Kingdom officially appeared in Chinese history, lasting for a full 190 years. Finally, under the will of Genghis Khan, the Mongolian cavalry wanted to avenge their Khan. The Xixia Kingdom was completely destroyed, leaving only a few Western Xia royal tombs in the vast Gobi Desert, known as the "Oriental Pyramid" for future generations to pay tribute to the future generations... In the year when Li Yuanhao became emperor, the Song Dynasty had been founded 78 years, and the Great Khitan had been founded 131 years, and a full 56 years had passed since Li Jiqian rebelled against Song and became independent...

I am the country above China, and I am only worthy of being a "Western Xia person" in a small land in the west

On December 9, the deputy Huanqing Road was appointed Liu Ping as the deputy capital of Fuyan Road. On the 11th, Xia Xu was appointed as the governor of Fengning and the governor of Yongxing Army. Fan Yong was appointed as the governor of Zhenwu Jiedu and Yanzhou, and was preparing to attack Xixia. On the 15th, he ordered the search for spies sent by Li Yuanhao into the territory of the Song Dynasty, and he was arrested for a reward of 100,000 yuan for one person. On the 23rd, he was appointed as the governor of Baoshun Army and the chief of Miaochuan. He was awarded a thousand pieces of silk, a thousand kilograms of tea and 1,500 kilograms of loose tea, and only one thing was to restrain Li Yuanhao.

In January 2nd year of Baoyuan (1039), someone found a detail amid the condemnation and scolding. That is, although Li Yuanhao was rebellious and called himself emperor, he still maintained the claim of a minister in the letter of the country, which was quite polite. So would the country of etiquette fight directly in our country of China?

No! The barbarians need to educate them and give them a chance! So as before, they sent various rewards and gifts to the Western Xia envoy who sent the letter to the country. But they didn't expect that the envoy was extremely arrogant. He closed the door and left the rewards he sent outside the door. I don't care about your things at all!

I was so angry that the Privy Councilor Wang Deyong and Deputy Commissioner Chen Zhizhong were about to pull the man out on the spot and cut him directly! But the Privy Councilor Sheng Du and Deputy Commissioner Zhang Guan opposed it.

Wang Deyeng instantly recovered to the state when he was fighting Dangxiang 42 years ago and drove Grandpa Li Yuanhao out of the Qingbaichi nest: Your Majesty, the old minister asked for a fight, and was willing to lead the central army to the desert, and wipe out an ugly traitor like Li Yuanhao!

His Majesty Renzong was hesitating... The veteran general was ambitious, but... he discussed again...

After discussing again, he fell into the quagmire. On the 23rd, Guo Guan, the governor of Yanzhou, was demoted to Li Wei, who was under the jurisdiction of Fuyan Lujin, because he did not observe the enemy situation.

At the critical moment, the Tubo people had an old problem again. The nightmare that happened more than a hundred years ago reappeared, and Tubo once again split inside. And this time the split level was fatal, and Zanpu, who no one dared to offend, was betrayed by his own son!

The eldest son born to the wife of Ye Sila, the first wife of the original wife, fled from Qingtang City, each with his own troops and respected the plateau, and was not controlled by his father since then. They chose to show kindness to their father's enemies, and the second son did the best. With his consent, his chief adviser, Yu Long, betrothed his daughter to Li Yuanhao's son, and turned into a close relative of flesh and blood.

He was timid and revenge, and treason for the enemy! Unexpectedly, a hero born such a scum in his life, and Ye Silu had no choice but to face division. He chose to retreat, moved his royal city from Qingtang City to Lijing City, and gave up the initiative in the war. The Song Dynasty had no choice but to unite all the forces that could be united, on April 3, he granted the wife of Ye Siluo as his wife and his two sons as the envoys of the Tuanzheng Army.

The Tubo people were in chaos without fighting, which was an unparalleled opportunity for the rise of Dangxiang people. The God of Destiny smiled at Li Yuanhao. He could not fail. The son of Yan Sila, Zhao Zhen and his ministers were all adding fuel to the fire, bringing Li Yuanhao to the forefront of history...

As a result of the further discussion, on May 22, Wang Deyong was dismissed from the Privy Councilor and replaced him with Xia Shouyun.

In June, Jasoni Luo led 45,000 troops to attack Li Yuanhao's Xiliang Prefecture. Because the other party was prepared, he could not go out and could only withdraw his troops. But no matter what, Jasoni Luo had sent troops to attack the enemy. What are you doing in the army of the Song Dynasty? Only the "re-discussion" in the court proposed to bribe Jasoni Luo heavily. He gave it to him with land, and only wanted Jasoni Luo to destroy Li Yuanhao for the Song Dynasty. However, Cheng Lin, the assistant minister, firmly opposed "If Peter land, he would go to Yiyuanhao and give birth to Yiyuanhao. It would be better to use the room to make both sides disagree. This is China's benefit."

On the 12th, Shi Shouxin, the founding hero of the Song Dynasty, and Shi Yuansun, the capital of Yuhou in front of the palace, was appointed as the deputy capital of Fuyan Road.

On the 13th, Zhao Zongshi, who was originally sent to the palace as a prince and raised by Empress Cao, was temporarily sent back to the palace to his father Zhao Yunrang's palace because Zhao Yunrang was about to be born.

On the 23rd, Li Yuanhao was seized from all his official positions in the Song Dynasty, but his surname was still retained. In the history of the Song Dynasty, he was called "Zhao Yuanhao" from beginning to end, and firmly nailed him to his status as a retainer. At the same time, Shaanxi was immediately closed, and the trade between Hedong and Xixia was not traded with the Dangxiang people. In addition, he offered a reward to capture Li Yuanhao. Someone who offered the position of Yuanhao was appointed as the governor of Dingnan Army on the spot.

On the 27th, the head of Hedong Road communicated with the Great Khitan. He informed Zhao Yuanhao that he had rebelled and the Great Song Dynasty was alert to the border areas, so that friendly countries should not be surprised.

On July 28, Yelu Zongzhen personally went to pay tribute to his father, Emperor Liao Shengzong. Previously, he had some insights when he heard the monks teach him the "Sutra for Repaying Gratitude", so he went back to his imprisoned biological mother Xiao Nojin. However, there was no affection between the mother and son.

On the 29th, Xia Sheng, the governor of Yongxing Army, was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou, and also served as the governor of Jingyuan and Qinfeng 2nd Routes. Fan Yong, the governor of Yanzhou, also served as the governor of Fuyan and Huanqing 2nd Routes. The two became the highest military commanders on the northwest border, strengthened the military force on the border, and were ready to enter a state of war at any time.

Let me introduce the regional division of the northwestern border during the Northern Song Dynasty. The official system of the Song Dynasty should be the most complex in Chinese history. Local first-level administrative divisions are called "roads", but there are four types of roads: the highest commander in charge of military and political affairs is called the comfort envoy (Shuai Si Road), the highest commander in charge of financial responsibilities is called the Transport Envoy (Cao Si Road), the highest commander in charge of judicial rituals is called the Tidian Zhengzhu (Xian Si Road), the highest commander in charge of disaster relief is called the Tiju Changping (Cangsi Road). The various roads are divided into different ways to achieve mutual restraint.

The economic foundation determines the superstructure. So the road we usually refer to Caosi Road, which was originally defined as 15th in 997 and 17th in 1001. There are now 18th in the world, 21th in 1072, 22th in 1073, 23th in 1074, and 24th in 1105. Specifically in the northwest border, it is now Shaanxi Road. After 1072, it will be divided into two routes: Qinfeng Road and Yongxingjun Road.

Qinfeng Road "Permanence 1: Fengxiang.zhou 12: Qin, Jing, Xi, Long, Cheng, Feng, Min, Wei, Yuan, Jie, He, Lan. Army 3: Zhenrong, Deshun, Tongyuan. County 38" Yongxing Army Road "Permanence 2: Jingzhao, Hezhong.zhou 15: Shaanxi, Yan, Tong, Hua, Yao, Bin, Fu, Jie, Qing, Guo, Shang, Ning, Fang, Dan, Huan. Army 1: Baoan. County 83"

But now we are going to investigate military affairs, war! So look at Shuaisi Road: There are 27 routes in the world. Yongxing Army is divided into three: Yongxing Army Road, Fuyan Road, Huanqing Road. Qinfeng Road is divided into two: Jingyuan Road and Qinfeng Road (after Xihe is opened, there will be another Xihe Road in Qinfeng Road. The last 28 routes in the world in the Northern Song Dynasty)
