The westbound chapter
Because thieves from Chen, Bo and other states on Nanjing Road rose, the Jin Xuanzong ordered the Privy Council to send troops to conquer the enemy on the other day.
When Yu Long Jiechi's battle report came, Genghis Khan was furious and sent someone to send an order: Everything is listened to Ogedei! Those who do not follow will be killed immediately!
Yu Long Jiechi's fate was determined! The Mongolian army almost attacked the city on the same day, and the subsequent battles began in every street and alley in Yu Long Jiechi City, and even women and children participated in the battle bravely! The Khwarezmians finally proved their courage in the Battle of Yu Long Jiechi, so that future generations of history can face up to this once extremely powerful Central Asian power!
This is glory! It's just a terrible price! Yulong Jiechi's destruction is more thorough than Samaerhan! All the population disappeared, except for a few children, girls, and craftsmen, all were killed! The city was flooded with water from the river and disappeared into a vast ocean... Yulong Jiechi was removed from the history books since then!
The Mongolian army after the war was also split here! The chilling discrimination made Genghis Khan's eldest son Shuchi completely desperate! Is it meaningful to stay in the Mongolian army and declare his loyalty? He is the eldest son, but he cannot get the friendship of his brothers, and he will never be able to get the recognition of his father! Look at the order sent by his father: the commander of the entire army is the third brother Ogedei, and this is his status!
Shu Chi took all the wealth in the city and led his troops to the north of the Sir River! He headed west, north, and far and unknown areas! He wanted to build his own country! Even if he was still a Mongol in name, he must be free and respected in essence!
History testifies: He did it all!
Shu Chi traveled far away, Chagatai, and Ogedei did not stop him, and even watched his brother take away all the property of Yu Longjiechi. They were not narrow-minded people! Not only Ogedei, even Chagatai, known for his cruelty and ruthlessness, also had his strict side! He was the most prestigious ruling in the Mongolian army. He was always fair in every dispute, and he decided...
Unfortunately, Shu Chi’s problem has nothing to do with justice! Bloodline is always the most basic and powerful side of human beings! Who made such a thing happen back then? For many years, the three brothers Chagatai, Ogedei and Tolei hugged their elder brother and felt the warmth of their compatriots, but on the other side, they would definitely curse in their hearts: This damn beggar man!
But I wonder if all of them had thought of such a thing: their grandmother, the Madame Yuelun, the Madame Mother in the hearts of all Mongolians, was also a beggar... In other words, even if there was no robbery that happened to their mother Borte, even if there was no Shu Chi, their body, the great Genghis Khan, were still covered with the blood of the beggars!
Shu Chi left far away, Chagatai, and Ogedei returned to Genghis Khan. They joined forces and marched along the Amu River towards Khorasan and Gejinning. It was the last piece of land in Khwarezm! But at the same time, Genghis Khan was still waiting for a very important person!
Genghis Khan had already left Mongolia at this time and had a broad vision. He knew that some people in the world were beyond life and death! Such people appeared frequently among all ethnic groups, and with his current status, they should also have to contact them! If they can live forever, they can truly stand on the top of the world!
So far, the land experienced by the Mongols is Mongolian, the northern part of the Central Plains and Khwarezm. The three have their own advantages. But when it comes to civilization, the Han people are undoubtedly the best! Immortality and religion are one of the civilizations!
When Genghis Khan thought of this question, the only person who could answer it was from the Central Plains! In terms of specificity, there is of course only one best choice: Quanzhen Sect, Qiu Chuji!
Quanzhen Sect was founded in 1159 by the Chongyang Zhenren Wang, in Zhongnan Mountain, Shaanxi. Its name is "Quanzhen" which means not advocating talismans and not practicing yellow and white techniques. That is, not drawing talismans to drive away ghosts, and not refining elixirs to seek immortality. This is one of the main reasons for the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty - believing in Taoist priests, pretending to be gods and ghosts, and even the outer city gate of Kaifeng has opened and drawn a clear line!
In terms of doctrine, Quanzhen Buddhism advocates the unity of the three religions. It claims that the three religions are of the same origin and are originally a family. With the Taoist "Tao Te Ching", the Buddhist "Poroporamus Heart Sutra", and the Confucian "Filial Piety" as the main classics. In terms of behavior, Wang Tak and his disciples saved the people and resisted foreign races. It is said in history that "the Chongyang religion uses inaction to save the world by doing nothing." This quickly gained the faith of the people in the north, and Quanzhen Buddhism was famous all over the world!
Wang Wu chants seven disciples: Ma Yu, Tan Chuduan, Liu Chuxuan, Qiu Chuji, Wang Chuyi, Hao Datong, and Sun Buer respectively created seven major branches, including the Yuxian Sect, the Namo Sect, the Suishan Sect, the Longmen Sect, the Yushan Sect, the Huashan Sect, and the Qingjing Sect. When Genghis Khan started looking for gods in Khwarezm last year, the representative figure of the Quanzhen Sect was Qiu Chuji, the fourth ranked.
Qiu Chuji was born in 1148, with the name Changchunzi and also named Qiu Chuji. The reason why he changed his surname was said to avoid Confucius' taboo. This is not surprising, Confucianism is also included in the category of saints of Quanzhen Sect.
Qiu Chuji received many high-end prosecutors throughout his life. The emperors of the Jin and Song Dynasties would invite him to have tea and chat, but he didn't agree! This made him add a lot of awesomeness and even national supremacy to his secular reputation.
But is this true? Not necessarily! For example, the "Little Yao and Shun" Jin Shizong Wanyan Yong, Qiu Chuji was invited to host a huge Qing Dynasty... For example, last year, he received a call from Genghis Khan, and despite his age, he set off immediately and rushed to the distant West!
In the autumn of 10 years, Qiu Chu's chance to leave from Laizhou, pass Yihua, cross the country Huling, and northeast to ******* to enter the Mongolian grassland. Then follow the Chilurian River to the west, cross the Mongolian Plateau, climb the Altai Mountain, enter the northern part of Xinjiang, pass Alimali, cross the Tashi River, and cross the Selan to Khwarezm. Then he had to cross the Sir River again, cross Samahan City, Yulongjiechi City, cross the Amu River, and follow every area of the Mongolian Western Expedition Army to fight, and finally meet Genghis Khan in Daxue Mountain (now the Xingdu Kush Mountain in Afghanistan).
On the New Year of January 1, 15th year of Jiading (1), Song Ningzong accepted the treasure of destiny in Daqing Hall, celebrated the gift of the destiny, and pardoned the world. However, in this atmosphere of national celebration, there was a less harmonious voice. Jia She wrote to Shi Miyuan, "The will of heaven is hidden and difficult to understand, and the human affairs are easy to see. We should think about today's human affairs, but there is no one who can answer the will of heaven. The past troubles were only more than gold. Today's troubles were also Shandong Zhongyi and the north."
On the 9th of the month, a mutiny occurred in Hengzhou, Jin Dynasty, and more than ten people including Wanhu Yanqiu killed and burned the house in the city.
On the 0th, Emperor Xuanzong of Jin was ineffective in invading Song, and the annual monies were gone, and the country was empty, so he was really unwilling to accept it. So he ordered Wanyan Eke, and Shi Quan and the other two were restraining the three armies of Ma Nan again!
On the 19th of the month, Jia Tianan, Yang Yunyi and others submitted memorials to stop the southern expedition, but Jin Xuanzong refused to listen.
On the 4th, Li Shilin led the Jin army to defeat the Xixia army at Yongmuling.
In April, Qiu Chuji finally met Genghis Khan on Daxue Mountain!
In the past two years, the long journey, wind, frost, rain and snow, the Yellow River and desert, Qiu Chuji's trip to the Western Regions is not inferior to Xuanzang, the famous monk in the Tang Dynasty! The significance of this trip is not only the fundamental purpose of promoting religion, but also the more complicated than Xuanzang in the past. Xuanzang was exploring, and Qiu Chuji was exploring, but also had to deal with the most powerful and cruel people in the world, or even exchange them!
Genghis Khan wants to live long. Information shows that he must live eternal life first. After being clearly told that it is impossible, it will be reduced to an increase of a hundred years and decades. He is confident that as long as there are more than ten years, he can expand the territory of Mongolia to the end of the world!
What responded to him was Qiu Chuji's snow-white head shaking gently... Qiu Chuji only gave this world overlord two sentences: "Respect the heaven and love the people first, and be clear about the heart and few desires are the key." If you can do these two points, your lifespan will naturally increase and your mood will also improve...
Of course, such an answer cannot be satisfied! You can imagine how disappointed Genghis Khan would be! But please never underestimate the IQ of this generation of genius! Comparing the performance of the emperors of all generations of China in pursuing immortality: for example, Qin Shihuang was deceived by alchemists, constantly looking for immortals, sending people to sea, etc., it can clearly reflect the extraordinaryness of Temujin, a Mongolian emperor who is both transformed, wild, and illiterate!
He calmed down on the spot when he learned the answer and expressed his satisfaction with what Qiu Chuji said. He believed that it was honest and kind. He then rewarded Quanzhen Sect and Qiu Chuji himself! Qiu Chuji was respected as a "god" and returned to the east and was ordered to take charge of the world's Taoist sect in Taiji Palace in Yanjing. After his death, his remains were buried in Baiyun Temple (now Xuanwu District, Beijing). Quanzhen Sect also benefited from it and had a high status in the Yuan Dynasty. Even if he took the initiative to provoke a dispute with Buddhism twice in a row and failed, it was still officially recognized...
Qiu Chuji's trip to the west was written by his disciple Li Zhichang. Well. For some reason, if you want to become an amazing legendary practitioner in China, you have to travel to the west for a trip?
The book "Changchun Real People Journey to the West" not only records a Taoist event as simple as it is, but also uses it to prove the supreme and uniqueness of Taoism in later generations! This book is used to support the legend of "Lao Tzu's journey to the west and transform into Hu" in Taoism, claiming that Chinese Taoism is the founder of Indian Buddhism!
The right and wrong of religion cannot be defined by ordinary people. Back to Genghis Khan, how could he be smart and ask Qiu Chuji alone?
He found the ********* and asked the same question. The tutor's answer was very formal. He held the "Koran" in his hand, and quoted everything from the scriptures without any personal opinion...
Genghis Khan was stunned! It is conceivable: Even if you have not read the Koran, you can know that it will never say how to live forever... Okay! Genghis Khan was disappointed again! He laughed and said: I agree with all the doctrines in the scriptures, but I don’t agree with the pilgrimage to Mecca! I’ll ask the gods are everywhere, why do you have to go to a place to pray?
The dream of immortality of a generation of geniuses was shattered, but his Mongolian Empire was finally taken!
On April, Jin Xuanzong ordered the establishment of the Grand Secretary Agricultural Department. Yiqing, Shaoqing, Cheng and other supervisors, and set up the office department on the third roads of Jingdong, Jingxi and Jingnan, and also interviewed the matters.
On the 4th, Mongolian soldiers attacked Lingzhou County, Jinguo.
This month, Wanyan Eke, Shi Quan crossed the Huai River in Yingzhou and Shouzhou, defeated the Song army in Gaotang City of Anfeng Army on the west road of Huainan Road, and then attacked Gushi County, Guangzhou, and defeated the Song army led by Luzhou general Jiao Sizhong. On the 9th, they won the victory to Emperor Xuanzong of Jin. However, they concealed Shi Quan's nephew Shi Qing, who is now ordered by the Southern Song Dynasty, is resisting Shi Quan's Jin soldiers.
Then, Wanyan Eke decided to return north. When he walked to a place 0 miles away from the Huaihe River, the deputy general Shi Quan suddenly sent a secret edict and ordered the entire army to stay for three days to harvest the newly mature wheat in Huainan. Wanyan Eke disagreed with "The water of the Huaihe River is shallow now, so you should cross quickly. What if it surges, what should we do? Besides, we must beware of the sneak attack of the Song army. It would be fine if the wheat is not cut." But Shi Quan was determined to cut the wheat. Unexpectedly, it was raining heavily that night and the Huaihe River surged. Of course, Shi Quan didn't care about cutting the wheat, and immediately fled north by a light boat! As the commander, Wanyan Eke had to command the construction of a floating bridge to retreat. At this time, the Song army came from behind and the Jin soldiers were defeated... After returning to the country, Wanyan Eke blamed Shi Quan. Emperor Xuanzong of Jin immediately ordered Shi Quan to be behead Shi Quan!
Although the final peace talks will be completed by Jin Aizong, the son of Jin Xuanzong, after the New Year, from 117 to May of this year, the war of "lost to the north and gained to the south" initiated by the Jin Kingdom for more than five years should be considered to be over. Afterwards, it was found that not only did not take advantage of the Southern Song Dynasty as planned, but the military expenditure was huge, and the national treasury was wiped out. Even the army itself was "destroyed, and one out of ten" was exhausted, and the loss was really huge! And the hatred with the Southern Song Dynasty became increasingly severe, laying the groundwork for the Mongolian and Song Dynasty to join forces to destroy the Jin Dynasty in the near future!
At the end of the war, both Jin and Song dynasties were in tears. They were either active, passive, mentally disabled or forced. Anyway, they were greatly damaged and their military strength was greatly damaged. However, the national defense could not be left behind, and they had to be stronger!
On May 10, the prince Zhao Rong was granted the title of Duke of Jiguo. At the same time, as Shi Miyuan's killer weapon, it was used to replace Zhao Rong. Zhao Guicheng, the heir of King Hui of Yijing, was also appointed as the Shaozhou Defensive Envoy.
Some ministers also noticed Shi Miyuan's conspiracy to depose and establish. Zhen Dexiu, who was also a palace teacher, once advised Zhao Sheng in this way, "Prince, as long as you can be filial to your adoptive parents and respect your ministers, you will be destined to be the will of heaven, otherwise it will be hard to say." Unfortunately, Zhao Sheng no longer listened to these unpleasant words, and was still intoxicated in the arms of a beauty, making his dream of emperor...
Shi Miyuan stepped up his conspiracy. He used the excuse of seeking good fortune for his deceased father Shi Hao, and invited Zheng Qingzhi to climb Huiri Pavilion at Jingci Temple and rejected everyone. "Zhao Rong is not really the source of being the emperor, and Zhao Guicheng is really good. I want to invite you to be his teacher. After the matter is completed, I will give you the position of prime minister. However, this matter is very important, and it comes from Miyuan's mouth to the king. Once it leaks, you and I will not escape the disaster of extermination of the clan." Zheng Qingzhi agreed and carefully taught Zhao Guicheng, which made his academic progress by leaps and bounds. Shi Miyuan kept defaming Zhao Rong and praising Zhao Guicheng in front of Song Ningzong.
