Ran Min is a national hero? Please, please stop patting his face.

When it comes to national heroes, what names do you think of? If it is not modern, the first names that come to my mind are Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang, Qi Jiguang and Zheng Chenggong. Of course, China has a long history of thousands of years. Whenever a big era opens, countless outstanding people emerge as the times require, and then make contributions and leave great names in history. Such a figure can of course be called a hero, but it is more than one order of magnitude more difficult to add the prefix "nation" in front of the hero.

So what is a national hero? Modern Chinese Dictionary is defined as follows:

Therefore, many heroes we are familiar with cannot be associated with national heroes.

For example, among the four famous soldiers in the Warring States Period, only Li Mu is worthy of the title of national hero, because he made great contributions in the fight against the invasion of Xiongnu. Wang Jian, Tian Lei and Lian Po, even though their military achievements are much higher than Li Mu's, have all fought civil wars between the same nation, so they can be called heroes, but they are doomed to be out of touch with national heroes.

Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Chen Tang, Dou Gu, Dou Xian, Ma Yuan and Ban Chao in the Han Dynasty, and Li Jing, Li Ji, Su, Gao Xianzhi and Geshuhan in the Tang Dynasty all met the selection criteria. But in fact, when we talk about national heroes, we seldom think of them. Why? Because these fierce people in the Han and Tang Dynasties "bravely and tenaciously resisted the invasion of foreign enemies" and then went to their old nest to tear down their homes ... It is said that the national heroes in our impression are not just heroes, but often tragedies, and the endings are generally tragic. But the above deeds of these brave brothers usually make us applaud, wishing we could not drink two pounds of good wine to entertain. What kind of tragedy is it?

Therefore, the national heroes we are familiar with generally appeared in the unlucky dynasties of Song Like, Ming Dynasty and Late Qing Dynasty. Of course, the virtues of the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties are not much better, but most people are not very familiar with or interested in the history of that era, but we should not forget the following names-

Zu Ti, Xie Xuan, Tan Daoji, Wei Rui, Chen Qingzhi and Emperor Wu of Song. ...

However, no matter how we relax the standard of the concept of national hero, there is no reason to include Ran Min, because that would be a great shame to the above sages and heroes.

Now people often flatter him on the internet. But ignore them, because these people are either stupid or bad.

Ran Min, born in Neihuang, Wei County (now Neihuang, Henan Province), is a spiny slave. His ancestors were Han generals, and he served as a tooth guard in Wei Jin. After Yongjia Rebellion, Ran Liang, the father of Ran Min, followed the beggar Chen Wu to the banks of the Yellow River. In the sixth year of Yongjia (AD 3 12), Schleswig defeated Chen Wu in Guan Peng (now south of Kaifeng, Henan) and captured Ran Liang alive. Then a strange thing happened-Schleswig, who always hated the Han people and was inferior to pigs and dogs, took a fancy to Ran Liang at a glance, and not only made his nephew Shi Hu accept him as his adopted son and change his name to Shi Zhan, but also treated him better than his grandson.

Is it because Ran Liang, who is only 12 years old, looks too cute, or looks like an old friend, or one of his actions hit Schleswig's soft spot? We don't know why Ran Liang was treated well, but what we can know is that Ran Min's father changed from a rebel soldier who resisted foreign tyranny to an accomplice of Schleswig-Holstein and Shi Hu, a murderous maniac, and made efforts for him:

Ran Liang was the post-Zhao, probably between the sixth year of Yongjia and the third year of Xianhe (AD 328), which was the most intense period for Schleswig and Liu Yao to compete for control of the north, and also the most ruthless time for innocent Han people to be slaughtered. Ran Liang at this time, even if his hands were not stained with the blood of a Han Chinese, could not be innocent.

In modern times, we call such people puppet troops or Japanese devils.

After RanLiang died, Ran Min took over, and he was still trusted. "(Stone) Tiger loves it more than all his grandchildren", so he was appointed General Jianjie and changed to Hou. And Ran Min didn't live up to Shi Hu's high hopes. In the battle of Changli in the fourth year of Xiankang (AD 338), all the troops of the latter Zhao were defeated, and only one of Ran Min's troops escaped unscathed, which made him famous.

While the fledgling Ran Min showed great ambition and the characteristics of many lean characters, such as paranoia and biting:

This Pu Hong was a hermit, later renamed Fu Hong, and he had a son named Fu Jian and a grandson named Fu Jian-so this fellow was actually the founder of the former Qin Empire, which later unified the north. This shows that Ran Min's eyes are really good, but his ideas are really bad. If Shi Hu listens to his nonsense, he is out of his mind.

Because although Hong Huang was a general, he also made great contributions to the post-Zhao, and he also stabilized the Guanzhong by his own efforts, especially among hundreds of thousands of Miao and Qiang people. On the premise of others' failure, if Shi Hu cut down Fu Hong just because of doubt, will the less peaceful Empress Zhao suddenly be exposed to smoke and disaster?

This incident also reflects Ran Min's consistent style-he has enough brains and is good at seizing opportunities, but his methods are always so simple and rude and always so reckless. He never takes other people's lives seriously except his own.

Even if such a figure can be on a whim, he is doomed to accomplish nothing, which can be said to be more destructive than Schleswig-Holstein and Shi Hu.

For example, on the issue of his relationship with the Buddha.

In the fifth year of Yonghe (AD 349), Shi Hu died of illness, and his youngest son, Shi, who was only 10 years old, succeeded to the throne, which was followed by chaos in Zhao.

Because in that troubled times, only the strong and the cruel can deter people everywhere. Even an adult with good skills but insufficient prestige may not be able to clean up this mess, let alone a baby who is wet behind the ears. So before anyone could react, many adult sons of Shi Hu began to stir.

Then why did Shi Hu leave many adult sons and let the youngest stone lion be his heir? The reason is also wonderful-because Shi Hu is too violent and abnormal, even his son can't stand it. When my wings are hard, I wonder how to kill my own Lao Tzu all day. Therefore, Shi Hu did not hesitate to kill the two princes (Shi Jia, the eldest son, and Xuan Shi, the second son) he had personally established. Later, he didn't even trust his son, so he simply chose the youngest and most cute charity.

In the face of such a cute little emperor's younger brother, if the older brothers don't resist, they will probably be embarrassed to say that they are Shi Hu's children in the future (Shi Hu's throne was stolen from his cousin Shi Hong). But the problem is that Shi Hu was still alive at that time, with nearly 10 sons. Which one was chosen?

Ran Min's vision made another contribution-he chose the Wang Pengcheng Buddha.

So Ran Min took the initiative to take refuge and took the lead in persuading Jin, and was also a pioneer in the subsequent battle for the position of the Buddha, with outstanding achievements. When the Buddha proclaimed himself emperor, he paid tribute to the hero. Ran Min was worshipped as the commander-in-chief of Chinese and foreign military affairs, assisted the generals and recorded the affairs of ministers.

But Shi Zun soon regretted it, because after Ran Min came to power, he bought morale, rejected dissidents and made no secret of his ambitions. So Shi Zun asked his third brother Shi Jian to kill Ran Min. As a result, Shi Jian, in turn, sold his brother at a good price. And Ran Min also you're welcome, he immediately sent his troops to kill Shi Zun and changed Shi Jian to emperor.

Why not say that the emperor is not normal? Before becoming emperor, Shi Jian could betray his brother for Ran Min. When he became emperor, the first thing he planned was to kill Ran Min. And in the face of this familiar scene, Ran Min didn't even think about it, and directly sent troops desperately. First, they killed all the Jie people in Yecheng (now Linzhang, Hebei Province), then killed Shi Jian, and killed the descendants of Shi Hu. Finally, he simply proclaimed himself, and changed his name to Yongxing, and his name was Dawei, who was called Wei Ran in history.

After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Wei Ran was besieged by Hou Zhao and Yan Qian. In addition, Ran Min, who only dared to govern the country, was always suspicious, killing heroes such as Li Nong, Wang Mo, Wang Yan and Yan Zhen, as well as him and his main assistants. With his own courage, failure is only a matter of time.

In the eighth year of Yonghe (AD 352), Ran Min was defeated in the battle of the paddock, captured by former Yanjing Murong Mu, and immediately executed. Wei Ran died three years after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The biggest reason why many people are willing to tout Ran Min as a national hero now is the so-called "killing Hu Ling":

So Ran Min did give these three orders, but "killing Hu Ling" didn't exist, but it was just the result summed up by later generations. The reason why Ran Min issued such an order had little to do with upholding justice and saving his kin, let alone the country's sense of honor, and it was purely for personal gain.

I think the biggest reason why Ran Min chose to invest in Buddha is that they reached an interest exchange agreement:

That is to say, Shi Zun promised to make his nephew Ran Min a prince, but in the end he made a nephew Shi Yan. This aroused Ran Min's dissatisfaction, and he began to buy off the morale of the army to do things, which also aroused Shi Zun's vigilance, so Ran Min did not hesitate to kill his dry uncle.

And Shi Jian is willing to sell his brother to Ran Min, and there must be a deal behind it. And Ran Min set up a mirror, it must be to reward the latter, so as soon as the goods acceded to the throne, they had to quickly worship Ran Min as the general and seal King Wude.

Ran Min is now more of a high town owner. Does the master care nothing about what he is afraid of?

As a result, Shi Jian soon embarked on the old road that Shi Zun had traveled in the past, and then he was attacked by himself. However, in a very short period of time, Ran Min killed and abolished an emperor by extremely rude means (Shi Jian was imprisoned until he proclaimed himself emperor), which caused an uproar.

You should know that the post-Zhao Dynasty was a rebellious regime. From the founding of Xerox to Shi Hong, Shi Hu, Shishi, Shi Zun and Shi Jian, all the emperors were Jie people, and most of the civil servants and military commanders in the Qing Dynasty were Jie people. Ran Min's success in the post-Zhao period was not due to his ability, but because he was the grandson of Shi Hu.

Now that boss Shi has recognized his grandson, those Jie people have to hold their noses and recognize Ran Min, but the premise is that they can't be named Ran, but they must be called "".

Because he is only half a valerian, Shi Hu has never considered Ran Min, a talented and beloved grandchild, even if he has a yellow-mouthed child as an heir. Therefore, even if the Buddha was forced by the situation to make a promise to make Ran a prince, he had to take great risks and go back on his word afterwards. Even Shi Jian, a coward, regretted naming Ran Min queen.

Among the five lakes, the non-Jie people who do the most evil and kill the most are called orcs. And Ran Min, because of his bloodline, can only be regarded as an orc. He is a different kind of imperial family in the post-Zhao dynasty-he can be rewarded, but it is impossible to make him the leader of the Jie people.

The only reason is that Ran Min's Han descent, which can't be washed away anyway, can't convince Jie people anyway.

So, as soon as Ran Min killed Shi Zun, (No.Shi Hudi 1 1) made an alliance with Yao (the founder of the late Qin Dynasty) and Fu Hong to win over Ran Min, and Shi Cheng,, and other royal families ran around planning to destroy Ran, while Sun, and other Jie will simply have Qi.

All this made Ran Min realize that even if he sold himself to take refuge, Jie people could not completely trust themselves, let alone accept themselves. Therefore, if you want to realize your ambition, you can only rely on the strength of the Han people.

However, since the Yongjia Rebellion, the Han people have become "two-legged sheep" slaughtered by the Hu people, while Ran Min, who grew up among the Jie people, takes pleasure in bullying these people. So even when he had no choice, he didn't trust the Han people, let alone bet on them. What's more, there were hundreds of thousands of Jie people in Yecheng at that time, and Ran Min had enough reason to think that Han people, who had always been regarded as weak as cattle and sheep, could not compete with them.

But Ran Min had no choice. After all, most of his troops are Jie people. So, after careful consideration, Ran Min issued three orders summarized by later generations as "killing Hu Ling"-this is actually a step-by-step serial plan.

The first step is to distinguish between the enemy and me. I guess Ran Min was a little scared when he ordered "Six Yi people inside and outside dare to weigh the staff and cut it". Because valerian people are martial, almost everyone is armed, even women and children wear swords and bows. If these guys leave him alone, they will cut him with a knife. Even if Ran Min is brave enough to win the championship, he will be chopped to pieces.

Ran Min, who has been hanging out with them since childhood, knows better that this group of Jie people (Jie people are a branch of Xiongnu), who were hung out in the grassland desert by their ancestors, were fierce and abnormal when they took advantage of the fish in troubled waters, and were in a mess when the disaster struck. So, of course, there are radicals like Shicheng and Sun among them, but most of them are still waiting to see, or waiting for the overall situation to come out regularly to take advantage.

So Ran Min must scare them before this, or at least stabilize them. More importantly, he needs to determine who is determined to fight with him to the death, and who is the melon-eating masses who are purely selling melons. ...

The result may be beyond Ran Min's expectation. People who are fierce on weekdays are cowards in the face of life and death exams. "There are countless people who stop or leave the city." However, Ran Min, who has always regarded himself as an outstanding person, seems unable to accept this reality for a while, so he took the second test.

So he gave the second order: "Those who are the same as the official heart live, and those who are different from the official heart live." This is not only to prove that my eyes are not blind, but also to divide and disintegrate a large number of Jie people in Yecheng-Ran Min should still lack confidence in his own strength and the strength of the Han people he wants to borrow, and intends to further divide and disintegrate Jie people in order to help the gangs.

Of course, maybe he still has illusions about Jie people, at least in part, hoping that they can stay in Yecheng and help themselves. After all, in order to expand his influence, he did not spend less money to buy people's hearts. Can't waste it all?

And the result also don't know whether to satisfy or disappoint Ran Min-Yecheng's outstanding people all ran away, but the Han people in the countryside in the fields came to the city to express their support for him.

At this point, Ran Min was helpless, and finally ordered to kill Hu, and first changed his surname from Shi to Li, and then restored the surname of Ran, and finally realized his dream of proclaimed himself emperor and founded the country.

Therefore, if Shihu made Ran Min as the storage, or Shi Zun fulfilled his promise, or Shi Jian was willing to make him a prince, and even until the end, there were enough Jie people willing to accept and support him as emperor, then Ran Min would always be Shi Min and An Jie.

Then there will never be an order to kill Hu.

Choosing to restore the identity of Ran Shi and Han nationality is only his last choice in desperation. Killing Hu Ling has nothing to do with national justice and resistance to aggression and oppression. It is entirely out of Ran Min's own self-interest.

Such a figure is not only unworthy of the title of national hero, but also a disgrace to this glorious title.

After Ran Min proclaimed himself emperor, he was almost strangled by all the forces around him. This history book, including some authoritative materials now, explains that the birth of the only Han regime in the northern region at that time was hated and feared by many Hu separatist forces, especially the stimulation of being killed, and desperately wanted to kill him.

This statement has some truth, but it doesn't make sense in many places.

After all, the most orthodox Han regime at that time was the Eastern Jin Dynasty. However, even if the Eastern Jin Dynasty launched the Northern Expedition endlessly, clamoring for the recovery of the Central Plains and the expulsion of Tatars all day long, the northern nationalities were generally not interested in it. Of course, if you are beaten, you have to copy the guy to fight, but that's all. Except for the vigorous armed parade held in Fujian later, the northern strongmen of past dynasties had little enthusiasm for copying the Han people's lair in the south. On the contrary, they are more keen on involution.

Besides, Wei Ran is not the only Han regime in the north. Don't forget another one that used to be cool. In addition, although Liang Qian lives in the northwest, it is the base camp of the Han people in the north. At the same time, all the cool kings from Zhang Chonghua are bent on helping the Kim family, and the northern overlords such as Zhao, Hou Zhao and Qian Qin will never die. But even so, I have never seen those fierce conference semifinals join hands to kill Lao Zhang's family.

Even if you say that "Hu was ordered to be killed", it actually doesn't make sense. After all, everyone knows that the "Hu" that Ran Min wants to kill actually refers to the Jie people who became enemies with him. As for the Xianbei, Miao and Qiang nationalities, Ran Min didn't even bother them.

So when the current Emperor Murong Mu of Yanjing Zhao, the Xianbei people, sent his troops to attack, Ran Min was simply a face of question marks and sent messengers to ask-I didn't provoke you when I didn't recruit you. Did you drink too much or take the wrong medicine? Why did you hit me?

Murong Mu's answer to this question may be the truth that Wei Ran is under siege:

Of course, it can also be said that Murong Miao is brazenly making excuses for himself to fish in troubled waters, but what he said is not all against his will.

In the troubled times after the Yongjia Rebellion, almost all the people who can become the hegemon are villains who deny killing people. When it comes to virtue, they are birds of a feather, and no one is necessarily better than anyone else.

But realistically speaking, there are really not many people who can compare with Ran Min in character:

Anyone familiar with history knows that Liu Cong, Shi Hu and Fu Sheng were the three killers of that era. What kind of good birds can be ranked by notoriety? And Ran Min is not only on it, but also the only Han nationality.

And to some extent, Ran Min is even the worst.

First of all, Shi Hu and the Stone Family are notorious, but even if there is only one person in the world who has never been sorry, that is Ran Min. Because he is the only benefactor of Shi, he never suffers-when the northern Han people were slaughtered and humiliated by Jie people, only Ran Liang and Ran Min were favored by Shi Hu, even more than their own children and grandchildren. So Ran Min has a happy childhood and a healthy growing environment. When you grow up, you can be an official and lead troops. If he makes achievements, he will not hesitate to be awarded a high honor. Who else is so kind to a history full of evil? Don't forget the Shi family, but even the father and son said they would kill them, and they didn't even blink.

Just because Shi refused to make Ran Min a prince, he "killed thirty-eight people of Ji Longsun and tried his best to kill Shi", but what obligation did Shi have to make Ran Min? He is not his own.

Even if he fell out with the historian, in fact, several outstanding people tried to kill him. However, under the "killing" of Ran Min, no matter how old or young, strong or weak, even other conference semifinals who look like the Jie people, even Han people, were all killed. What's the difference between such evil deeds and Shi Hu and others?

Therefore, it is not only the Jie people who have a blood feud with him, but also Xianbei people, such as Murong Mu, Yao Qiang Zhong Yi and Hong Yan. They all came to Ran Min because of the same disease or simply can't stand their eyes. Ran Min carry not to live, all in the name of kin to the eastern jin dynasty for help:

In fact, the Eastern Jin not only "didn't answer", but also took advantage of the fish in troubled waters-Yuan Zhen, the satrap of Lujiang, was sent to attack the territory belonging to Wei Ran and robbed all the people in Hefei.

Many people have been criticized for this, but it is unreasonable. Because as old rivals who often deal with each other, people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty are too familiar with Ran Min's virtue. If you talk to him, you are crazy.

Ran Min's hands are not only stained with the blood of Jie people in the north and Han people, but also have a blood feud with the people of the Eastern Jin army.

In the fifth year of Xiankang (AD 339), Ran Min was ordered by Shi Hu to attack Zhucheng (now Wuhan, Hubei Province) and won a great victory, killing more than 6,000 Jin soldiers. Of course, there is nothing to say about this. When the two countries are contending, 8 Jin Jun can only blame himself for his incompetence. However, after the outcome was decided and the strategic goal was achieved, Ran Min still spared the defeated troops of the 8 Jin Army who fled for their lives, launched a cavalry siege, and then forced them into the river to drown alive, enjoying it.

At that time, I didn't talk about the feelings of my own people. How dare you ask my kin for help at this time?

Today there is a so-called American-born China man with yellow skin and white heart, but at least he has a white heart. When Jie people can bring benefits to themselves, Ran Min is Han's confidant; When the Han people can save lives, Ran Min is the darling of the Han people; Betrayed others, Ran Min didn't show his true colors-only a Chinese skin, never a heart.

Such a figure is also worthy of being called a national hero?

Ran Min is definitely not a national hero, just a hero. But even in the disaster he personally provoked, there are still many heroes, such as those Zhao people mentioned in the previous quotation.

What is Zhao? In the post-Zhao Dynasty, only the Jie people were considered as China people. In order to distinguish them, Han people are called Zhao people.

Being a foreigner and becoming a "Zhao person" is tantamount to great luck for the Northern Han people of that era.

After the Yongjia Rebellion, five evils started from Shanxi and Hebei, and went all the way south, and the banks of the Yellow River became a scorched earth. Those Plutocratic family can protect their children's relatives, partial tenants, or "the gentry went north" (that is, the Han people in Guanzhong and Kansai States moved to Liangzhou under the protection of Zhang Gui), but what can the vast majority of helpless ordinary people do?

There is no way, and the result is that tens of millions of Han people have been slaughtered.

However, when Ran Min ordered Hu to be killed in Yecheng, the situation had greatly improved. On the one hand, killers like Liu Cong, Liu Yao, Schleswig-Holstein and Shi Hu have all died, the situation in the north has generally calmed down a lot, and the mass slaughter has come to an end; On the other hand, even the bloodthirsty Shi family gradually realized the importance of population and taxes to a regime. However, the population size of the Jie nationality is too small. The reason why Shi longs for long-term stability and arrogance is inseparable from the contribution and support of the Han people. Therefore, they also took some measures to ease contradictions, such as wooing and giving preferential treatment to the gentry and slightly limiting the atrocities of the Jie people. Therefore, although the "Zhao people" at this time will still be bullied or even slaughtered from time to time, most of them can still survive-even if they survive, it has been an unattainable hope in the past few decades!

Moreover, the Eastern Jin regime at that time was so weak that there was no hope of recovering lost ground in the north. The barbarians in the north are rampant, and the strength of the Han people is negligible. Even though he jumped out of Ran Min, he was still surrounded by foreign regimes such as Qian Qin, Yan Qian, Dai Guo and Duan Qirui, and suffered a fierce siege. They died less than three years after their existence. In fact, the people of the Northern Han Dynasty still need to suffer for more than 200 years, and they can't be really proud until the rise of the great Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty.

Most of those Zhao people who don't even know many important people don't have this knowledge, but their despair and anger are real. Because Jie people killed their fathers and brothers, insulted their wives and daughters, and will continue to enslave their children and grandchildren ... Historians may disdain to waste pen and ink for their resistance, and their possible resistance is like a joke to the powerful Jie people, but when Ran Min ignored his own intentions, he did not hesitate to raise his sword and gun.

Killing Hu was pleasant for a while, but bloody revenge soon came-Yan people besieged Yecheng eight years ago (AD 352), and Zhao people refused to give in even under the desperate situation that "people were hungry in Yecheng, and imperial secretary was hungry in Geelong (Shi Hu)". In the end, except for Ranzhi and other princes and ministers, there was only a dead city left.

They would rather die than lay down their swords and guns and be slaughtered again.

However, Zhao people did not die, and their descendants still live in that homeland. However, the Jie people who caused the most disasters in the Wuhu Uprising did not have such luck and gradually disappeared from the historical stage. However, the last armed force they left behind was not tolerated by the Northern Dynasties after 200 years, but was accepted by ZSZSZSZ, the Emperor of A Liang in the Southern Dynasties. This is another story of Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf. This Jie people's army soon launched a rebellion, which not only killed the rich and prosperous Jiangnan, but also made it "thousands of miles away, bones gathered like a mountain dragon" ("Southern History, Volume 80, Biography 70").

This is the Hou Jing rebellion. I wonder how Zhao Ren Jiuquan, who killed Hu Jie in Yecheng, would feel if he knew.

However, the undeniable fact is that it is not Ran Min who avenges Hu wholeheartedly, but the "Zhao people" in the Jie population. Although it caused more disasters, at least they fought with their own lives.

Therefore, they are the real heroes, and it may not be an exaggeration to call them national heroes.

Ran Min, on the other hand, is just a selfish villain who "would rather teach me to be negative than negative". To put it mildly, he is just a lean man, not even a hero.

Not to mention a national hero?
