Chapter 17 1. The stool with three legs is the most stable

After the mid-Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the emperors ascended the throne at a young age. Starting from Han Hedi, there were eight successive emperors. The oldest was 8 years old, and the youngest was only 100 days old.There is also the one who died at the age of two—that is, Emperor Shang of the Han Dynasty. In the posthumous law, the short-term death cannot be called Yue Shang, and if he lived for less than two years, of course the short-term death cannot be completed.This phenomenon of low imperial power formed a situation in which relatives and eunuchs took turns to control the government, and politics was in a dark state.

Eunuchs have been called eunuchs since the Ming Dynasty. People who have been sentenced to death have incomplete six senses. They see normal people marrying wives and having children.Therefore, relatives and eunuchs are the two darkest forces in the ruling group.When the emperor was young, the queen mother usually presided over the government.In ancient times, a woman's lack of talent was a virtue. A widow in her twenties, with long hair and short knowledge, could only rely on her father and brother to deal with the affairs of state. The little emperor looked at his grandfather and uncle's winks since he was a child, and he was naturally unwilling when he grew up. Grandpa and uncle.

But the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were all promoted by grandparents and uncles, so they had no choice but to rely on the eunuchs around them.Therefore, such a characteristic is formed: the emperor is young, and his relatives are in power.When the emperor grew up, he relied on eunuchs to kill his relatives, and the eunuchs came to power.In a few years, the emperor has been rattled. Once the little emperor came to the throne, his relatives took power again. When the little emperor grew up, the eunuch took power again.And so on and on.In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, land annexation was serious.The rule is corrupt, the emperor builds a large palace, selects beauties widely, and spends millions of dollars in the harem every day.During the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, officials were publicly sold, 10 million for the public and 5 million for the Qing.Local officials are vacancies, and the price is high. The governor of the state and county is 20 million, and he can also pay in installments.A person who paid such a high price for an official position would pull himself into his arms like a red-eyed wolf as soon as he took office, and he had to get his money back.The common people fall into the hands of these people. If they don't want to blow the lamp and pull out the wax, they can only fight with them.

The common people couldn't survive and were forced to take risks, so the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out in 184 AD.Using the five buckets of rice road, a group of farmers were incited by these gods and ghosts, and it was overwhelming.This scene was repeated in the later Chinese history. The most popular one was Hong Xiuquan, the so-called "Heavenly King" of the Qing Dynasty, who had not graduated from elementary school.The imperial court of the Eastern Han Dynasty finally suppressed the Yellow Turban Uprising with great effort, but the imperial court itself also entered the coffin with one leg.

The governor of the Eastern Han Dynasty became the highest governor of the state and had all the power, which laid the foundation for the division of the regime.In the process of pacifying the Yellow Turban, the governors of the prefectures and the local tyrants expanded their armed forces and accumulated strength to attack and kill each other.Today, Zhang Dashuai beats Li Dashuai, and tomorrow Li Dashuai fights Wang Dashuai, killing and killing, forming some powerful warlords such as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.In 200 AD, the two sides had a decisive battle in Guandu. They only owned one state. After that, Cao Cao eliminated some warlords one after another, basically unified the north, and then actively prepared for the unification of the whole country.

During the Battle of Guandu, Liu Bei defected to Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou. In order to seek supremacy, he formed an army and recruited talents.Liu Bei once visited the thatched cottage three times and invited Zhuge Liang, the most powerful farmer in history, from Longzhong.As a result, the power has grown rapidly and developed into an important force in the competition among heroes. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Quan inherited his father and brother's foundation, based in Jiangdong, and tried to expand to the south of the Yangtze River, occupying most of today's Guangdong, Fujian and Hunan.

In 208, Cao Cao marched south.At the beginning, he successfully occupied some places in Jingzhou, but in the crucial Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao was scored by the opponent before the final whistle sounded. Sun and Liu allied forces and retreated to the north. The Battle of Chibi is a well-known example in the history of our country in which the less wins the more, and it contributed to the initial formation of the three kingdoms.For more than ten years after the war, Cao Cao expanded his ruling area to the northwest; Liu Bei sent troops to Shu, occupied Yizhou, and controlled some areas in the southwest; Sun Quan occupied Lingnan and expanded his ruling area in the southeast. In 220, Cao Pi abolished his brother-in-law Han Xiandi, proclaimed himself emperor in Luoyang and established Wei, and the Eastern Han Dynasty perished.After that, Liu Bei and Sun Quan proclaimed themselves emperors and became kings successively, and the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu officially came into being.

The Wei established by Cao Pi was called Cao Wei in history.Cao Wei continued Cao Cao's ruling policy. A few years after the founding of the country, Cao Wei's national power entered its heyday.Later, Cao's power fell, and three generations of Sima's grandparents came to power one after another. In 221, Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor in Chengdu, the country was named Han, and was known as "Shu Han" or "Shu" in history.In the TV series, on the flag raised by Zhuge Liang's army, the word "Shu" is written in a big way, which is too messy.It's like the Japanese holding up a flag with "wa" written on it.Who printed the things that others scolded themselves on the military flag, you have a big heart!Liu Bei's posthumous title is Emperor Zhaolie of Han, not Emperor Zhaolie of Shu.

After Liu Bei's death, his son Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, and his prime minister Zhuge Liang assisted him.Because Liu Chan was bored by Zhao Yun in Changbanpo when he was a child, and was flopped by Liu Bei, which affected his brain development. When he grew up, he would do whatever was wrong. Now it has almost become a curse word, and it has become the endorsement of a fool. .In fact, after the establishment of the Shu Kingdom, Zhuge Liang only lived for nine years, while the Shu Kingdom existed for more than forty years.When Zhuge Liang was alive, he sent troops to the Northern Expedition year after year. It is also said in the "Dispatch of the Teachers", "Three points will be made today, and Yizhou will be exhausted." Military expenses can only be relied on selling cloth.Fighting is fighting for money. Before soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first. Those who have no money can’t do what the rich do. People throw atomic bombs, and you throw grenades.

Zhuge Liang went out to Qishan six times, and Jiang Boyue’s nine expeditions to the Central Plains all ended in failure. The key is that the logistics can’t keep up. How much in and out?With Zhuge Liang's great talent, why do you force yourself to do it knowing that you can't do it?There is a sentence in his "Teacher List": "The Han and the thieves are not independent, the king's industry is not partial, and the king's industry will die if he does not attack the thieves." Liu Bei established the Han, and the Han should be in Luoyang, not in Chengdu. If we do not attack Cao Wei , the Shu Han has no need to survive.This is the same as when Chiang Kai-shek yelled to counterattack the mainland. The president of the "Republic of China" can't just stay in Taiwan, and he is not the owner of the island. He will become Huang Rong's father.

Said that Zhuge Liang was able to destroy Wei several times in one go, but was called back twice by Liu Chan, a mentally handicapped child, saying that I missed Xiangfu, and specially summoned Xiangfu to come back to have a look.Zhuge Liang was not a summoned beast, he just walked away as soon as he said it, so the war ran aground, Zhuge Liang vomited two mouthfuls of blood when he was angry, and died in Wuzhangyuan on the way to the Northern Expedition within a few days.Although there are fictions, it is always true that Zhuge Liang's bad luck in wars, lost street pavilions, and misused military rations are all God's unhelpful.When Zhuge Liang died, the five tiger generals were all dead, and Jiang Wei was unable to support himself alone, so the eunuchs monopolized power, and the country gradually weakened. In 263, the Kingdom of Shu was destroyed by Cao Wei. Sun Quan proclaimed himself king in 222, proclaimed himself emperor a few years later, and established his capital and industry. It is worth mentioning that in 230, Sun Quan sent generals Wei Wen and Zhuge to float to Yizhou, which strengthened the economic and cultural ties between Taiwan and the mainland.This is the earliest record in ancient documents about the large-scale arrival of mainlanders to Taiwan.After arriving in Taiwan at that time, the aborigines drank blood, cut off their hair and tattoos, stabbed their faces and chiseled their teeth.The pattern carved on the face may be to scare the wild beasts, and it is a bit weird to chisel out the front teeth.Why eat raw meat!The funniest restaurant sign in mainland China - authentic Taiwanese beef ramen, wow!This is authentic Lanzhou people who went to Taiwan to make ramen.The authentic flavor of Taiwan should be that the animal is chopped off with a knife and divided into two halves to drink blood.History proves that as long as the food is cooked, it must have the authentic flavor of the mainland, and they all immigrated there. Chen Shui-bian and his family immigrated there in the Qing Dynasty. After Sun Quan's death, Sun Wu's civil strife continued for years and gradually declined.
