V/arc be on the throne of Tang Mingzong of the Later Tang Dynasty when, his at hand has two high-ranking officers, one is his son Li Congke, a husband stone that is him respects Tang. Battle of be apt to of brave of two people Douxiao, but each other is ill-affected. Arrived Li Congke became emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty (it is Tang Mo emperor) later, two people make open cracked room for action eventually.
Li Congke sent tens of thousands of forces to assault the Jin Yang city that Shi Jingtang is in. Shi Jingtang is not kept out, an adviser mulberry dimension writings brush he gives an idea, want him to denounce reinforcements to Qidan person.
Await in those days, ye law A is protected machine is already gone, light of his heart of son Ye law replaced Qidan country advocate seat. Sang Weihan helped Shi Jingtang draft a letter of ask for help to give Ye law De Guang, express to be willing to do obeisance to Qidan country advocate become father, and agree be in beat back after Tang Jun, close wild goose door the Yan Yun with north 16 cities (call deep and remote cloud 16 cities again, point to 16 cities such as secret administrative division, cloud city, be in today Heibei, Shanxi two provinces are northern) land gives Qidan.
Of Shi Jingtang surrender the activity suffers ministry general people object. The department says Liu Zhiyuan: "Ask for help of red of your Xiang Qi, say I return justifiable, do obeisance to him to become father egregious rather; Besides, promise them a few treasures still never mind, ought not to alienation land. Ought not to alienation land..
Shi Jingtang of one mind wants to protect his interest, sent Sang Weihan to take conditions of these betray one's country to see Ye law heart is smooth hastily.
Light of Ye law heart thinks land of Xiang Na dilate originally, hear so favourable condition, expedite 50 thousand picked cavalry to save Jin Yang immediately.
Shi Jingtang dispatchs troops from advance in relief city converging attack, hit Tang Jun defeat utterly.
Light of Ye law heart comes to Jin Yang, shi Jingtang gives a city to receive personally, grovel smaller than him light of Ye law heart says to become father.
Light of Ye law heart says to Shi Jingtang: "I rush about 3000 lis, will save you, have a results at long last. I see your appearance and bearing, must go up quite the host that does a Central Plains, I seal you to become an emperor! I seal you to become an emperor!!
Shi Jingtang hypocritically ground declined to be accepted gladly. Qidan country advocate announce Shi Jingtang is an emperor formally. After Shi Jingtang weighs the Supreme Being, immediately according to the condition that agrees so, yan Yun 16 cities alienation Qidan.
Shi Jingtang relies on the support of Qidan, capture Luoyang, destroyed the Later Tang Dynasty, became the emperor of Central Plains formally, dynasty title makes advance, another name for Kaifeng of found a capital. It is great-great-grandfather of the later han dynasty.
Shi Jingtang is right Qidan country advocate feel deeply grateful of Ye law Deguang, to the memorial to the throne on Qidan, qidan country advocate say to do " father emperor " , oneself say " puppet emperor " . Besides silks every year to Qidan pay intribute 300 thousand outside, on holidays, country of red of Xiang Qi of the emissary that return a clique advocate, give sb a present of chancellery of mother of an emperor, noble. Those people one dissatisfactory, with respect to the clique the person blames Shi Jingtang, shi Jingtang always is respectfully, apologize admit one's error and ask for punishment. Advance day emissary arrived Qidan, qidan official is arrogant, said a lot of contumelious words. Emissary got air, return Beijing of another name for Kaifeng, conducted these affairs leave. The Xiadoujiao on the imperial court must lose face, have Shi Jingtang not care a hoot only. Shi Jingtang relies on the protection of Qidan, the die in one's bed after becoming 7 years of disgraceful puppet emperor.
Shi Jingtang is one of the most notorious characters on Chinese history, coming 100000 is all the time " puppet emperor " and " quisling " optimal figure spokesman.
The main reason of Shi Jingtang go down in history as a symbol of infamy depends on him alienation deep and remote cloud of 16 cities lift, honest to the influence of later ages too big, in after this the destiny that Central Plains dynasty changed at least 400 years directly in time, be forgotten not easily naturally by later generations.
16 cities included north of today's Tianjin, Beijing, Heibei, Shanxi north from Dong Xiangxi, basically distributing in the Great Wall inside (south) side, also namely the Great Wall the strategic strong point of backside of line of defence of this important military affairs, sea among them, Mo Erzhou already went to Heibei deep hinterland counts a hunderd li. Lost the area with arduous situation of this one hill, the whole north of Central Plains dynasty lost a check " Hu Ren cavalries " protective screen of natural military affairs, naxiaqianli is not had again can defend nearly, till Yellow River bank is a wide expanse of flat land entirely, central Plains from now on the door is big.
After northward political power is in the ground that gained Yanyun, mastered the martial advantage that drives straight in to Central Plains on one hand, on the other hand, to swallow cloud area farming the nomad economy of agrarian economy and northland was formed benign and complementary, also promoted the social development with whole northland greatly, also more the formidable adversary that becomes Central Plains dynasty.
After this 400 years, to dynasty of each Central Plains, recover deep and remote cloud 16 cities are a the most important dream from beginning to end. Build Shi Youyun till Ming Dynasty the domain that 16 cities just return Central Plains country afresh again.
