The cliff mountain incident itself is a disaster that has no conscience?

Why is the Yashan incident itself a morally bankrupt disaster?

1206, Temujin, Mongolia unified the ministries of Mobei and established Great Mongolia. Mongolia destroyed Xixia on 1227, Xiliao on 12 18, and gold on 1234.

After six years of Khan in Wokuotai, Mongolia, Song took advantage of the opportunity of the withdrawal of Mongolian troops from Henan and Hebei to send troops to recover the original Song Xijing, Tokyo and Nanjing, and was defeated by the Mongolian army. In the summer of that year, Wokuotai and the kings agreed to concentrate some troops and attack the Song Dynasty in the south while marching westward to Qincha and Wolong Temple and eastward to Korea, thus opening the prelude to the Mongolian (Yuan) Song War.

In February of the 16th year of Zhiyuan (A.D. 1279), Mengyuan completely subverted the Southern Song Dynasty and drove the imperial clan of the Song Dynasty to Yashan. At this time, considering that it is difficult to escape, Lu Xiufu drove his wife and children into the sea, carrying Wang Wei into the sea and died. At that time, he was only 44 years old. After the Yashan incident: "I was thrown into the sea, and most of the harem ministers went with the dead. On the seventh day, 100,000 people floated out of the sea. "

This terrible scene comes from the history of Song Dynasty, which is also the historical basis of the argument that there is no China after the cliff. But we don't know whether this100000 people were martyred or coerced, because the old records are unknown.

From the Biography of Lu Xiufu, we can see the plot of Lu Xiufu's "driving his wife into the sea with sticks and swords", that is, forcing his wife and son to death before carrying their son into the sea. Lu Xiufu's action shocked the whole world, even people in the Yuan Dynasty were surprised by his behavior. Thus, Lu Xiufu was included in the legend of loyalty and righteousness.

Even if Lu Xiufu didn't coerce 100,000 people to pay for the collapse of the Great Song Dynasty, these people volunteered, which caused a great spiritual impact on the Han people in other regions. "Whether you surrender to the Mongols or not, the result is always the same. Mongols burn, kill and plunder, and do all kinds of evil. It is better to kill yourself now. "

This mentality is like a murderer who kills his wife and children before committing a crime. No matter how just he is about killing people, such a denial is always chilling.

The so-called war is nothing more than violence caused by conflicts of interest, and it is also the most intuitive and effective way to solve contradictions. True justice is to end the war as soon as possible, or to minimize the harm of the war. If we want to prove the "righteousness" and "righteousness" by means of war, then the significance of the existence of these heroes is very intriguing.

In the tragic cliff mountain incident, Song history seems to have forgotten to show a detail, that is, how many "eunuch ministers" came out of the "100,000 people"?

This detail will directly affect the judgment of future generations on this historical event.

It is conceivable that even if the minister of the Qing Dynasty, like Lu Xiufu, coerced the whole family to be buried with the Song Dynasty, the number of bodies at sea was far from "100,000". What's more, when the little emperor was on the run, there were inevitably not many harem wives. It is worth noting that after this incident, a large number of officials such as Su Zhen and Zhai Guoxiu surrendered to Meng Yuan. Obviously, this 10 million people can't all be harem wives, princes and their families.

So, there is a saying that these 100 thousand people are ordinary people.

First, Lu Xiufu coerced his relatives to jump into the sea and die. This behavior was noticed by officials and harem wives, and it spread rapidly, affecting everyone present. So at that time, everyone had the idea that "I would rather die than die in the hands of Mongols", which affected the refugees.

Secondly, whether these 100,000 people really want to die or were driven out of the sea by Lu Xiufu and other generals is unclear. It was a bit shocking that soldiers threatened people to commit suicide by jumping into the sea, but this situation still existed in the background at that time.

As we all know, the high-level officials (royalty and bureaucrats) in the Southern Song Dynasty never treated the people as human beings, and the status of the people at the bottom was very low. Therefore, it is not impossible to drive people into the sea and die for their country and themselves. After all, the system of martyrdom ran through the whole feudal era, even in the late Ming Dynasty. No one can guarantee that these 100,000 people are not victims of bureaucrats and royalty in the Southern Song Dynasty.

If so, it is not just a joke that there is no China behind the cliff. The cliff incident itself is a tragic disaster.

Let's look at Zhang Shijie, another Song general who was included in the legend of loyalty and righteousness. After the Yashan Incident, he tried to establish a new regime in Zhancheng. However, the gentry who survived the Yashan incident immediately took coercive measures to stop Zhang's behavior and expelled him from the Yashan area.

The original text of this record is as follows: "Shijie gradually occupied the city, and the local tyrants returned to Guangdong, which was Nan' en Hailing Mountain, and they scattered and collapsed." After this incident, Zhang Shijie mobilized all his strength and went to Guangdong by sea and land, but an accident happened during the voyage and the shipwreck was fatal. I have to say that the local tyrants who "strongly returned to Guangdong" may have done a very popular good thing.

Because, no one can guarantee, desperate Zhang Shijie after the establishment of the exile regime, will create a tragedy like Lu Xiufu's "more than 10,000 people floating on the sea", so that more plebeians will be buried with Dasong. But today, there are still some history lovers who attack the harm of Zhu Cheng's Neo-Confucianism and praise the loyalty of Song people.

It can be said that the "Yashan incident" is the sorrow of an era, and this kind of thinking is undoubtedly making this ignorant sorrow continue to this day.
