Yuchi Chifan talked with Liu Caiyun at the Immortal House, talking about Liang Shi, and Yuwen Wen held a "paper discussion meeting" with his sons in the side hall of the palace, and also talking about Liang Shi.

A paper is a topical paper with only one title. Princes, including the prince, must write a "paper" with this title and then discuss it.

The title is very simple, but a few words: on how Hou Jing used eight hundred remaining soldiers to chaotic beams.

The people who wrote the papers include Prince Yuwen Weicheng and Yan Wang Yuwen Weihan. The two are in their thirties and their children are becoming naughty.

There was the governor of the West Road of Hebei, King Yu Wen Weixing of Wu. He was in his early twenties and got married for a year. Because the princess Changsun was pregnant, Yu Wen Weixing was about to become Aye.

Yuwen Weimin, who had just returned from "observing the morale of the army", was not yet married.

Princes of the three age groups have different levels of experience, and the depth of their writing is naturally different.

Yuwen Weimin and Yuwen Weili, who belong to the age group of "under twenty", basically come from the "Shu Liang Shu", and their arguments are in line with the rules and regulations, and do not deviate from the "Shistor's Sayings" in "Shu Liang Shu" (the compiler's summary of biographical characters and events).

Yuwen Weimin and Yuwen Weili believed that the reason why the Taiqing difficulty (the subsequent chaos of Liang) occurred was that the ministers were unfaithful and the son was unfilial, and the conflicts in the Liang State gave Hou Jing an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Yuwen Weixing, who has been a local official, has a lot of content in his papers. In addition to being taken from "Book of Liang", his arguments are also taken from some other unofficial historical materials and manuscripts (published after the publisher bought the copyright).

His arguments have more of their own opinions, or rather, they are not copying the "historical ministers" in "Book of Liang", and have more summary.

Yuwen Weixing believed that the unfaithful ministers and the unfilial sons were just superficial. The deep-seated reason was that the domestic conflicts in Liang State intensified and Hou Jing's rebellion was just a detonation of domestic conflicts in Liang State.

He inferred that even without Hou Jing, the old Liang Emperor Xiao Yan would inevitably have a civil war in the Liang State.

The prince Yuwen Weicheng, who belongs to the "thirty-year-old age group", and the content of his papers is much richer than that of King Yuwen Weixing of Wu, and less than half of the arguments from "Book of Liang".

The arguments between the two were also further than those of Yuwen Weixing: Hou Jing was because only 800 remaining soldiers could succeed. If this person had 8000 soldiers in his hands, he would not be able to make any trouble.

Why?

Yuwen Weimin and Yuwen Weili were full of doubts about this. Yuwen Weixing was thinking about it, so Yuwen Wen asked the prince to speak first.

After twenty years of state training, Yuwen Weicheng walked onto the "pool" and began to express his views.

Hou Jing fled to Liang State with 800 remnants, what does this mean to all forces in Liang State?

It means that Hou Jing will be a very useful murder weapon.

In the early years of the Taiqing Dynasty, the Liang Kingdom had domestic gentry and common people, central and local tyrants, noble and humble conflicts within the royal family had intensified. It can be said that the Liang Kingdom was like a pressure cooker at this time, with the pressure in the pot approaching the limit, and Emperor Liang Xiao Yan was the only pressure reducing valve.

Xiao Yan is there, and the pressure cooker can barely be maintained. Once he is away, the pressure cooker will explode.

When Hou Jing fled south with 800 remaining soldiers, all forces saw an excellent murder weapon.

Hou Jing had no foundation in the Southern Dynasty, but only 800 remaining soldiers were weapons that could be thrown away after use. Moreover, the reputation of killing people could be borne by Hou Jing in the end.

The local tyrants tried to speculate and rebelled with Hou Jing, just as the tyrants in Yongzhou (Jingzhou area) followed Xiao Yan to great events. As a result, Hou Jing's troops changed from 800 to 8,000 when they revived.

There were more and more powerful armed forces participating in the rebellion, and many oppressed people and slaves of Liang State hated the powerful and the court, so they followed the rebels one after another. Of course, a large number of people were also enslaved by the rebels.

So, the rebels arrived outside Jiankang City with more than 100,000 troops.

Xiao Zhengde, a royal clan who was in charge of military affairs in the capital, was once the heir of Xiao Yan. With the birth of Xiao Tong (the prince Zhaoming), he became a nephew and had no chance of being with the throne since then.

He had a sharp hatred in his heart and increased dramatically, so he wanted to use Hou Jing as a weapon to kill the emperor and the crown prince, become the emperor himself, and then kill Hou Jing, who had no foundation in Jiangnan, and all his sins were pushed on Hou Jing.

Therefore, Xiao Zhengde, who had a crackling plan, opened the Jiankang city gate and led the rebels into the city.

Taicheng was surrounded, and more and more slaves and the people defected to the rebels. They had no long-term ideas, just to avenge the powerful and oppressed themselves, or to change their destiny and be the best.

Many cold tribes were looking forward to the fall of Taicheng, waiting for Hou Jing to massacre all the gentry officials from high families, and then they drove away Hou Jing, who had no foundation.

The princes who were out of town also thought of one thing: if Hou Jing kills his father and the prince's brother, he will have a chance.

Hou Jing had no foundation in the Southern Dynasties, so he would not be able to take all the crimes afterwards.

Therefore, the princes who were waiting for their father and brother to die would remain in the town, keep their troops and preserve their strength. At the same time, they were also wary of being cut off by other brothers once they led their troops to Jiankang.

At the same time, the two sons of Prince Zhaoming, who were still alive, and the grandson of Emperor Liang Xiao Yan, were also waiting for the emperor. The prince died and waited for the emperor's uncle to fight, so that he could gain the benefit of the fisherman.

Everyone held a weapon called "Hou Jing" and took the lives of the emperor, the prince and his enemies. After the matter, they threw the weapon into the toilet and took on all the bad reputations.

As a result, Hou Jing used his energy to turn against him, so the difficulty of Taiqing happened.

When Hou Jing killed Jiangnan and blood flowed into a river, the emperor and the prince were finished, and the Gaomen gentry represented by Kings and Xie were finished, local tyrants took advantage of the situation, and the internal strife of the royal family decided the winner - Xiao Yi, who was in charge of Jingzhou, ascended the throne and became emperor, and Hou Jing's doomsday came.

Why can Hou Jing rely on eight hundred remaining soldiers and chaos?

It is because he only had 800 remaining soldiers, had no foundation in the Southern Dynasties and seemed easy to control, that he became an excellent weapon in the eyes of all forces in the Liang State.

If Hou Jing had 80,000 soldiers, all forces in Liang State would not have thought about him at all, and would not regard him as a good dog to control, but as a tiger or wolf to prevent him strictly. At that time, Hou Jing would only be rejected by Liang State and be attacked by the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and be defeated and killed.

It can be said that it was not the eight hundred remaining soldiers who helped Hou Jing succeed, but the intensified contradictions in Liang State. If we argue from a military perspective, it would be impossible to explain why such an incredible thing happened.

Hearing this, the young Yuwen Weimin and Yuwen Weixing suddenly realized that Yuwen Weixing was a little annoyed, annoyed that he could not think more deeply, and the Yan King Yuwen Weihan's views were the same as those of the prince.

The sons' good knowledge made Yuwen very happy, especially the eldest son of the illegitimate son, who performed well. He concluded: "If a person is weak, even if he catches a cold, he will kill him, and the same is true for the country."

"Hou Jing's eight hundred remaining soldiers, but only a cold and Liang State's terminal illness was the reason for the Taiqing crisis. Even if Hou Jing did not cause trouble, when Xiao Yan died, civil war in the royal family would inevitably break out, which would also be a major disaster."

"Using history as a lesson, you can know the rise and fall. Although the Book of Liang is good, the content is limited. Therefore, if you want to learn from history as a lesson, you have to collect more other historical materials to understand why historical events occur."

"If you just read the Book of Liang, can you know how many contradictions in Liang State can intensify?"

"When Hou Jing fled south, eight hundred soldiers, eight thousand soldiers rebelled against Liang, and attacked 100,000 soldiers outside Jiankang City. Just reading the "Book of Liang", can you really figure out what's going on?"

"So, it is not enough to just read official historical books. You need to collect more other historical materials, then think more about it yourself, read books with questions, so that you can gain more and discover the "inside" through the "expression".

Seeing his sons nodding, Yuwen Wen asked Yuwen Weihan: "What else can King Yan add to it?"

Yuwen Weihan replied: "The baby has no supplement."

Yuwen Wen wanted to say something when he heard this, but he still didn't say it.

With my son's knowledge, we can see that all forces in Liang State used Hou Jing as a knife back then, so we should not be unable to see another problem.

So, there should be some additional additions, but I just dare not say it.

Others probably saw it, and dared not say it or mention it in their papers.

The problem is that Xiao Yan has lived too long and is old and stupid, which has led to the rebirth of domestic ills and intensification of contradictions.

It is not a good thing for the emperor to live a short lifespan. If there is one of Cao Pi and Cao Rui and his son who can live for twenty years, there will be no Sima Yi and his son.

But if the emperor lives too long, it is not a good thing, Xiao Yan is an example.

Looking at the sons who are young and strong and are about to be young and strong, Yuwen Wen was a little dazed.
