Revisiting Future Path

420th Drive History Reversing

When Wei Dongsheng regrets, the inferior product tomorrow ring suddenly brings surprises: the tenth rebirth is a continuous rebirth, and the second life will still experience in the same world. In other words, after the preparation period of the 18th day in the real world, Wei Dongsheng will once again come to another world in 1348+18=1366 to witness the evolution of the Xia Yuan Revolution after his death.

Unfortunately, the inferior product Tomorrow Ring also has a new restriction: Wei Dongsheng is forbidden to use the first world heritage to speculate.

The so-called first-life heritage includes but is not limited to resources such as potential contacts and invisible property.

In short, the political and economic resources accumulated in the first life belong to the first life experience, and Wei Dongsheng cannot use the first life results to speculate and reduce the difficulty of the second life experience. For example, Wei Dongsheng left a treasure of ten thousand liang of gold in a certain place in the first life, secretly took it out in the second life, and instantly became a rich man. For another example, the first generation of Wei Dongsheng was familiar with the personalities of many civil servants and generals and the privacy of the court. If you use this private knowledge to suit him, he will definitely rise in a short time. All these opportunistic tricks violated the purpose of the tenth reincarnation course, and Wei Dongsheng must strictly discipline himself.

The first life is the first life, and the second life is the second life.

Even with such restrictions, continuous experience in the same world will have a different taste. At least Wei Dongsheng can appreciate what the first generation did from a second perspective.

The preparation period passed quickly on the 18th, and the second life experience slowly kicked off.

...

The perspective returns to another world.

On August 8, 1348, Wei Hansheng (Wei Dongsheng) died of illness in Bianliang, and the northern expedition to Yuan Dadu's strategic decisive battle fell into vain.

The next month, Wei Dongsheng’s son Wei Antang rushed to the front line of Bianliang and became emperor under the support of a group of civil servants and generals. In the next month, Wei Anhao, the fourth son of Wei Dongsheng, ascended to the throne in Java and rebuked Wei Antang for rebelling against Wei Hansheng (Wei Dongsheng)’s successor. The bill calls on all people in the world to discuss it.

In other words, in order to avoid frequent encounters between heirs, Wei Dongsheng formulated a strict law of succession to the throne in the form of ancestral training: there are virtuous and virtuous, and there is no virtuous.

Wei Dongsheng and Yang Nian'an have four children and five daughters, and they have a total of nine children. The Heir Act stipulates that the fourth son Wei Anhao ranks the first heir on the grounds of "goodness", and the eldest son Wei Antang ranks the second heir on the basis of "the eldest son", the second son ranks the third heir, and the third son ranks the fourth heir. If Wei Anhao's heir based on "sage" or his eldest son is twenty-four years old when Wei Anhao passes away, Wei Anhao's heir will pass Wei Antang and obtain the status of the first heir of Wei Dongsheng's estate; if Wei Anhao passes away, his heir Under the age of twenty-four, the eldest son Wei Antang passed Wei Anhao's heir and became the first heir of Wei Dongsheng's estate.

The successor bill considers various accidents, and the provisions are quite cumbersome, so there is no need to go into details here.

In short, the fourth son Wei Anhao is the heir that Wei Dongsheng truly recognizes.

During the Northern Expedition of the Central Plains, Wei Dongsheng ordered Wei Anhao to supervise the Nanyang Islands with his prince, and his rule in Nanyang was quite stable. However, perhaps because more and more conflicts between the native heroes of the Central Plains and the Nanyang and Southern Song survivors groups have bred, the front-line civil servants and generals abruptly ignored the successor bill enacted by Wei Dongsheng, as if Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao mutiny, and supported the eldest son Wei Antang as the second Wei Xia Dynasty. emperor. As a result, the Wei-Xia dynasty split into two parts. The Mainland faction represented by the Chinese military officials declared allegiance to Wei Antang, and the Haitian faction represented by the Nanyang civil servants declared their allegiance to Wei Anhao. This is known as the War of Succession to the Wei Xia Throne.

From 1348 to 1355, the mainland faction was victorious, and even the Ryukyu advance military base that Wei Dongsheng spent more than ten years in building was successfully removed. Wei Anhao, the theoretically orthodox heir of the Wei Xia dynasty, could only shrink the Nanyang islands and relied on the ocean sky to stop Wei Anhao's pursuit.

During this period, Wei Antang died in 1350, and his eldest son Wei Xiuwen succeeded him as the third emperor of the Wei Xia Dynasty. Because the mainland faction represented the collective interests of the local civil servants and generals in the Central Plains, the inheritance from Wei Antang to Wei Xiuwen was unacceptable, and even because of Wei Xiuwen's weak personality, these civil and military generals were often able to act more conveniently.

In 1355, the War of Succession to the Throne suddenly ushered in a turning point.

However, after seven years of recuperation, the remnant forces of the Mongolian Yuan stunned the Yellow River defense line of Wei Xia, and the two provinces of Henan and Shandong fell one after another. After the defeat of the Yellow River defense line, the people were boiling, and they accused Wei Anhao and Wei Xiuwen's uncle and nephew of ignoring the death of the first emperor and only fighting for power. And because Wei Anhao is truly the legitimate heir recognized by Wei Dongsheng, both Wei Xiuwen and the mainland officials are facing heavy pressure from public opinion. Thousands of grassroots soldiers have become war-weary. They are unwilling to continue to fight Wei Anhao regardless of the fall of Henan and Shandong. .

Fortunately, the fall of the Yellow River defense line did not destroy the Wei Xia regime.

Since Wei Dongsheng competed in the Central Plains, disasters have occurred frequently in China, especially Henan. The mainland faction and the ocean faction are busy in the war of succession to the throne. They would rather invest their limited supplies in the battle to attack Ryukyu than to rescue the refugees in Henan and Shandong, because the two provinces have already had hidden dangers. After the fall of the Yellow River Defense Line, Meng Yuan naturally refused to embezzle military resources for disaster relief. The economic crisis and military crisis led to instant hungry and thieves in Henan and Shandong provinces, effectively delaying Meng Yuan’s further south invasion.

However, does Wei Anhao care about the loss of the Yellow River defense line?

At the moment when the Central Plains may replay the distress of Shenzhou Lu Shen, Wei Anhao resolutely "pained for the loved ones, quick for the enemies" and led an elite navy to raid the coastal provinces. In 1357, Wei Anhao defeated Wei Xiuwen's counterattack in Ningbo Mansion and effectively ruled Guangdong, Guangdong, Fujian and parts of Zhejiang.

At the same time, Wei Xiuwen made a fatal mistake.

Wei Xiuwen hated the two major taints of the fall of the Yellow River defense line and the fiasco of the Ningbo government. He believed that the reason why Wei Anhao could dominate Thailand and half of China was because the civil servants and military generals were almost warlord. They regarded the succession war as an opportunity for growth. Unwilling to help Wei Xiuwen completely defeat Wei Anhao. In order to improve administrative efficiency and condense the military power of various regions, Wei Xiuwen decided to strengthen the centralization of power, or directly or indirectly ousted the real power warlords in various regions, at the suggestion of his ministers.

Faced with Wei Xiuwen's arbitrary policy of cutting the vassal, the real power soldiers will almost immediately switch to Wei Anhao.

Unlike Wei Xiuwen's assumed centralization of power, Wei Anhao knew that warlords from various regions had grown in the war of succession to the throne, and the difficulty of gradually attacking warlords from various regions was simply higher than Wei Dongsheng's expulsion of the Tartar. In the absence of the power to eliminate warlords from all over the world and centralize power, not only will it be difficult for Wei Anhao to realize his dream in his life, but the Wei Xia dynasty will quickly collapse and separate.

After several months of deliberation, Wei Anhao resolutely joined the warlords in Hangzhou and signed the famous "Covenant to Respect the King and Eliminate the Barbarians."

The Hangzhou Zunwang Covenant stipulates:

Article 1: The ancestral precepts of Emperor Gaozu (Wei Dongsheng) are sacred and inviolable. All inheritance of titles must abide by the successor bill, and the arrogant titles of Wei Antang and Wei Xiuwen shall be removed.

Article 2: Stop all civil wars, make concerted efforts to expel Meng Yuan, and realize the expulsion of the death of the Emperor Gaozu.

Article 3: The ancestral training is sacred, and the title is sacred. Unless the vassals really raise troops to rebel, the emperor has no right to depose all titles.

...

and many more.

The Hangzhou King's Covenant to Eliminate Barbarians is an undoubted historical retrogression. The concept of centralization and unification that has been continuously developed since the Tang and Song dynasties has been ruthlessly trampled on by Wei Anhao. The Wei Xia dynasty suddenly became like the Ji Zhou royal family of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period or Liu before the Tweet Order. Han Dynasty.

The Great Unification retreated to the enfeoffment system.

In 1358, Wei Anhao successfully marched into Nanzhili and abolished the arrogant titles of Wei Antang and Wei Xiuwen and became the only and true second-generation emperor of the Wei Xia Dynasty. In order to restrict Wei Anhao, the soldiers with real power will not allow Wei Anhao to kill Wei Anhao's line of Tang. When Wei Anhao compromised with the powerful soldiers, he was afraid that Wei Xiuwen would become the benchmark flag for the powerful soldiers to oppose him. He simply moved Wei Xiuwen to the real-world island of Sumatra, using the name "Three Buddhas Qi Kingdom" and named Wei Xiuwen. "King Foqi".

Subsequently, Wei Anhao implemented a strategy of driving away tigers and wolves, releasing a few duke bait to lure the powerful soldiers to crusade against Meng Yuan.

Perhaps it was the deliberate interference of the inferior Tomorrow Ring, or the resurgence of the general trend of history. Wei Dongsheng saw many famous people in the real world.

Taking Ming Taizu Zhu Chongba as an example, he became one of the powerful generals in the Wei Xia dynasty, and united with the township parties such as Xu Da and Chang Yuchun. After Wei Anhao moved the title of Wei Xiuwen, Zhu Chongba made great achievements during the Northern Expedition when he held the banner of the king to fight against the barbarian. He was cited as a foreign aid by Wei Anhao because of his low-key personality. In 1361, Zhu Chongba attacked Goryeo and was promoted to the title of Goryeo National Duke. Zhu Chongba disliked the name of Goryeo and wanted to change the name of Goryeo to North Korea. Based on certain considerations, Wei Anhao vetoed Zhu Chongba's request to North Korea, and instead used the name of Lelang County during the Han Dynasty, and changed the Goryeo Kingdom to Lelang Kingdom.

Another example is Ming Yuzhen, who also held aloft the banner of Zun Wang and Zhu Yi and led his army into Sichuan. Ming Yuzhen won Sichuan, and immediately treated Sichuan as his foundation business. During this period, instead of cooperating with the Wei Xia Dynasty's national policy of crusade against Mongolia, he secretly communicated with certain Mongolian and Yuan forces. Wei Anhao didn't hesitate to regard Ming Yuzhen as a model, to induce other powerful soldiers to enter Sichuan, and Ming Yuzhen retreated steadily. From then on, Ming Yuzhen respected the court, and Wei Anhao simply sealed Yunnan to Ming Yuzhen in order to prevent other foreign surnames from entrusting the country. Ming Yuzhen immediately used her surname as her surname, and her name was Ming Guo Gong.

Another example is Chen Youliang and Wei Anhao relying on him to persuade Ming Yuzhen. Although unwilling, Wei Anhao had no choice but to seal Sichuan to the seemingly respectful Chen Youliang. Chen Youliang immediately referred to Han as his family, and his name was Han Guo Gong.

Another example is Mao Gui, a well-known general of the Red Scarf Army in the real world, who also held high the banner of the king and threw the barbarian and was ordered to march north and successfully destroyed the upper capital of Mengyuan. According to local conditions, Wei Anhao entrusted the real world Inner Mongolia to Mao Gui. Mao Guiyan has never forgotten the grace of Emperor Gaozu and Wei Anhao from generation to generation, so he named Wei as his family and called Wei Guogong.

Another example is Li Siqi, who is loyal to Chahan Timur in the real world history, and in this world he also fought for Meng Yuan against Wei Xia Bingfeng. However, Li Siqi knew the current situation best. Seeing that the Wei Xia dynasty swept the world was set, he immediately sent an envoy to Xia. Wei Anhao considered that Gansu was already beyond his reach. Even if he sent troops to attack Li Siqi, he would have to enclose Gansu and other places to other powerful soldiers, and simply accepted Li Siqi with tolerance. Li Siqi called himself a descendant of Li and Tang, and Tang was his family, and his name was Tang Guogong.
