About sending slaves

The Jin Dynasty, like the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, had many glory, but it was still the eternal pain in the hearts of the Chinese people. These dynasties established the most powerful country in the world at that time, but after only a few generations, they faced the invasion of the Northern Hus, and even finally on the verge of subjugation. The small court in the south of the Yangtze River, which did not know the hatred of the subjugation of the country and still sang after the river, was first founded in the Jin Dynasty.

The reason why Xin Qiji of the Song Dynasty chanted the famous sentence "Thinking of those years, the golden iron horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger" in Beijing is not only the great achievements of the protagonist Ji Nu (Liu Yu) of this novel, but also expressing the long-cherished wish of the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, expel the Hus and restore China. Who would have thought that such a historical wish would continue from the Jin Dynasty to the Yue Fei era 600 years later, and to the * era 800 years later.

In the era of cold weapons, among the many generals and politicians of the Northern Expedition, only Liu Yu made the greatest achievements, and only Liu Yu truly became the object of Hu's fear. When Liu Yu fell into a state of war and faced the threat of the army of the State of Qin in the crusade against the State of Yan, he said proudly to the envoys of the State of Qin: "Yu Ru Yao Xing: After defeating Yan, I have been resting my troops for three years, and I will be unfollowed. If you can deliver it yourself now, you can come quickly!" Go back and tell Yao Xing (the king of the State of Qin) that after destroying the State of Yan, I planned to take the State of Qin after three years of truce. Your State of Qin is coming to die today, so come quickly.)

The political and military glory has made Liu Yu's opponents have incomparable respect for it.

Yao Xing, the king of the State of Qin,'s evaluation of Liu Yu is: "Liu Yu pulls up the details and can kill Huan Xuan, restore the Jin Dynasty, govern internally, and repair the territory outside."

(It is indeed an extraordinary talent for an ordinary person to establish such a meritorious service)

Tuoba Si, the emperor of the State of Wei, asked Cui Hao, "How is Yucai like Murong Chui?"

Cui Hao's evaluation is: "Shengzhi. With the capital of his father and brother, he repaired the old business, and the Chinese people returned to it. If the night insect is on fire, it is easy to make contributions. Liu Yu rose up coldly, did not rank a foot of soil, and destroyed Huan Xuan, and restored the Jin Dynasty. The northern bird Murong Chao and the southern owl Lu Xun were unprevious. He was not the best of his talent. He was safe and safe!"

(Although Murong Chui is a peerless talent, Liu Yu is no less than him. Murong Chui's achievements depend on his qualifications, while Liu Yu's Jin, which pays attention to the door valve, is just an unpopular people)

Han Fan, the minister of the State of Yan, commented on Liu Yu: "Liu Yu raised his clothes, destroyed Huan Xuan, and restored the Jin Dynasty. Today, he attacked Yan and collapsed. This is almost a gift from heaven, and it is not manpower. If Yan dies, Qin will be the second, and I can't humiliate him anymore.

(Liu Yuqi destroyed the powerful minister Huan Xuan from his clothes, restored the rivers and mountains of the Jin Dynasty, and fought hundreds of battles against the State of Yan. This is not done by manpower, but with the help of God.)

When I read Zizhi Tongjian, Liu Yu fought against thousands of people alone as soon as he appeared on the stage. At that time, he only thought he was a fierce general. Later, I read that he led the righteous army to defeat the powerful minister Huan Xuan and preserved the country of the Jin Dynasty. At that time, I only thought that he was a hot-blooded loyal minister. Then I read that he led the army to pacify the State of Yan and the State of Qin with great momentum, and took it. When Luoyang and Chang'an were the capitals of the Qin, Han and Wei dynasties, he was not only a hero, but also an extraordinary politician, military strategist and patriot in my mind.

Admittedly, due to the limitations of history, Liu Yu left a large army to guard Chang'an before he felt that his life was coming to an end, but he returned to the south to seize the imperial power and established the Song Dynasty surnamed Liu, resulting in the final failure of the unification cause to be completed. This is also the reason why the so-called "always make heroes fall full of scarves" makes future generations full of patriotism and unite the Northern Expedition and unify the Central Plains Yue Fei, Xin Qiji, Lu You and so on.

However, whether it is gained or lost, Liu Jinu is a rare hero in Chinese history. Such a hero deserves to be remembered.

(In addition: When the novel was written more than 100,000 words two years ago, I made a special trip to Zhenjiang (ancient Jingkou) to Huaigu. Unfortunately, at that time, Beigu Mountain was being repaired and could not go to Beiguting to express my feelings. But I saw the "sun grass trees" and "ordinary alleys" in Jingkou. It's not in vain!)
