Li Zicheng killed Li Yan by mistake, why was Liu Zongmin, the first fierce general under him, furiou

The two are both capable generals under Li Zicheng, and they can be called two heroes, brothers who work hard in the world togetherBut the main thing is that Liu Zongmin thinks that Li Zicheng has changed, and the wrongful killing of Li Yan is just a symbol, and he is very dissatisfied with Li Zicheng.

Li Yan is very important to the country and the country, and he is an important person, kill him, and find a Li Yan who is so powerful, scheming and can fight? Therefore, Liu Zongmin, the first fierce general under his command, was furious, and anyone should be angry, after all, the rare help was killed in vain. Exasperating.

Li Zicheng has two generals, Li Yan and Liu Zongmin.

We all know that Li Zicheng's success is inseparable from the credit of the two generals, that is, Li Yan and Liu Zongmin, if it were not for them, it is estimated that Li Zicheng would not have succeeded so easily. To put it simply, Li Zicheng wanted to attack Beijing, and it was Li Yan's plan to tell Li Zicheng to get the people's will first, so that the people would believe in Li Zicheng, thus laying the foundation for the attack on Beijing.

But Li Zicheng failed in the end, also because he killed Li Yan, and no one gave him advice, so naturally he couldn't do it, it can be said that Li Zicheng is also Li Yan's defeat and Li Yan'sBecause Li Zicheng killed Li Yan, one was that he lost the morale of the army, and the army became a plate of scattered sand, and more importantly, Li Zicheng cut off his arm.

Mismanagement of the army.

Li Yan killed Li Zicheng by mistake in this way, it can be said that the most angry is the general Liu Zongmin, Li Yan's death brought a series of problems, first of all, the army's morale is in turmoil, everyone thinks that they are not with the wrong person, Li Yan is such a brainy and far-sighted person, he is still loyal to Li Zicheng, and he is still unjustly killed.

The people in the army have ideas, and everyone doesn't have to worry about fightingLi Zicheng had not yet discovered the problem, and it did not take long for Li Zicheng to fail because of improper management of the army.

Li Yan's death annoyed Liu Zongmin, the first fierce general under Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin was furious when he heard that Li Yan was killed, and said, Niu Jinxing and others have no size and dare to kill our two generals without permission, I must get rid of him.

"Ming Ji Beiluo" recorded: Jin Xing said: Li Yan will not return if he goes, his rebellion has already been revealed, it is better to punish him.

He believed his words, and made Venus set up a wine to lure him and kill him. Song Xiance was good at Li Yan, and then went to see Liu Zongmin and provoked him. Zong Min said angrily:

He has no arrow skills, and if he dares to kill the two generals, he must be punished.

Although Liu Zongmin is a martial artist and is very reckless, even he understands that Li Yan is a very important person, and killing Li Yan is a self-inflicted injury, how can a smart person do this?

After Li Yan was killed, Li Zicheng's army was in turmoil, it can be said that Li Zicheng made a wrong move, killing Li Yan was self-destructing the Great Wall, Li Yan was the most brainy and far-sighted person in Li Zicheng's peasant rebel army, but unfortunately, he was unjustly killed.

Because Li Yan and Liu Zongmin were good brothers who were born and died, they were the most powerful strategists and generals under Li Zicheng, how could Li Zicheng mistakenly kill Li Yan, the strategist who gave him advice, in Liu Zongmin's opinion, the King Li Chuang they followed had already changed, so he was very angry.

Li Zicheng killed Li Yan by mistakeLiu, the first fierce general under his command.

Zong Min was furious because Liu Zongmin thought that Li Yan was an important person and had a rare help to the Jiangshan Society, so killing Li Yan was tantamount to self-destruction of the country, and the person who killed Li Yan had no eloquence and military merits, so Liu Zongmin was furious.

Li Zicheng's success was partly due to the fact that he was surrounded by two generals, Li Yan and Liu Zongmin, who contributed a lot of strength to Li Zicheng's invasion of Beijing. Li Zicheng used Li Yan's strategy to win the hearts of the people, which allowed Li Zicheng to gain a foothold among the people, but Li Zicheng's failure also had a lot to do with killing Li Yan. Li Zicheng unjustly killed his "think tank" Li Yan, not only losing an arm, but also causing the army to lose its military spirit and cohesion.

After Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, because Niu Jinxing and others were jealous of Li Yan's talent, they slandered in front of Li Zicheng to frame Li Yan, saying that Li Yan was not a person who could work under Li Zicheng for a long time, and sooner or later he would rebel and set up another door, and he must be eliminated, and the arrogant Li Zicheng listened to Niu Jinxing's slander and agreed to kill Li Yan, so Niu Jinxing deceived Li Yan and his younger brother into drinking in the military tent in the name of Li Zicheng, and took the opportunity to kill Li Yan and his brother at the banquet.

After Li Yan was killed, the army was in turmoil, so Li Zicheng should not have killed Li Yan, he was destroying the Great WallLi Yan was the most intelligent and far-sighted person in Li Zicheng's peasant rebel army, which was obvious to everyone, but he was unjustly killed.

And Li Zicheng also has a general next to Liu ZongminAfter he knew that Li Yan was unjustly killed, he was very angry, thinking that Niu Jinxing and other merits and resourcefulness had no merit, but because he killed Li Yan's death because of jealousy, he was furious and must get rid of Niu Jinxing.

Later, due to improper management, Li Zicheng's army lost the people's hearts and weakened its combat effectiveness, and finally gradually went to extinction.

After Li Zicheng mistakenly killed Li Yan, Liu Zongmin, the first fierce general under his command, was furious, because Li Yan was a very famous general at that time, his martial arts were very high, and he was also very strategic, so after Li Zicheng mistakenly killed Li Yan, Liu Zongmin was furious.

Li Zicheng listened to Niu Jinxing's slander and agreed to kill Li Yan, so Niu Jinxing invited Li Yan to drink in the military tent in the name of Li Zicheng, and killed Li Yan and his brother at the banquet. After Liu Zongmin heard that Li Yan was killed, he was furious and said, Niu Jinxing and the others have no size and dare to kill our two generals without authorization, I must get rid of him.

This is because Li Yan was a very famous general at that time, and his martial arts were very high, his resourcefulness was also very good, and he was very powerful.

For Li Zicheng, what is wrongful killing? Whoever threatens his position is not wrongfully killed.

There is no such person as Li Yan in history, what else to talk about Liu Zongmin was furious, heh, you must make history clear before asking questions.

That's because he thought Li Yan was very capable, and then killed him by mistake.

The peasant uprising was not Li Zicheng alone, and he didn't discuss it with Liu Zongmin no matter how big it was to kill Li Yan. It shows that Liu Zongmin is in danger of being marginalized, and he will be cut at night.

Maybe Li Yan is just a fictional character, and there is no such person at all. Many records about Li Yan (Yan) are Li Ziben himself, including the one who was killed by Cheng Jiubo. Genealogy and the like are unreliable.

Before the cunning rabbit died, he started squirting away dogs, which is stupid.

Because Liu Zongmin is afraid of becoming the second Li Yan.

The peasant army should have a policy choice, one is to fight steadily and steadily, first to manage the captured areas well and then plot the country, and the other is to march into Beijing in a hurry, and Li Yan and his class should be the main force to attack Beijing. After entering Beijing, there was no logistical support, and the million-strong army was embarrassed, so who would kill him if he didn't kill him!! Later, the battle against the Manchu Qing was vulnerable!

This is like playing a copy of the game, the captain is a knight, he can resist as well as a warrior, he can milk as much as a priest, and he can output as a mage. Now the captain has kicked the good mage or priest of his old partner in the team, and the warrior is angry: Damn, you sand coins!

The output (plus blood plus status) depends on you?

The first to kill Li Yan, the second can kill him Liu Zongmin. Can he not be angry.

There is no such person in the history of the Manchu Qing records, but the history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty will be liquidated sooner or later, and the records of the West and surrounding countries do not involve Li Yan, so they can only be restored according to folk records and logic.

The fierce general ran into the Manchu Qing and became a tofu general,

Li Zicheng killed Li Yan by mistake in order to serve the public!

To put it bluntly, Li Yan's death was actually determined by the class contradictions between him and Li Zicheng, or rather due to their different political aspirations. Li Zicheng was a robber at best, burning and plundering in the name of an uprising, and he was only limited to personal pleasure, without the means and courage to rule the world. Li Yan hated the corruption of the Ming Dynasty and hoped to establish a new dynasty of peace after overthrowing the Ming Dynasty.

Li Yan made a plan and made great contributions to Li Zicheng's overthrow of the Ming Dynasty. But when Li Zicheng became the emperor of the soil, the banditry was even more exposed, tortured hundreds of officials, and burned and killed the people, which was even better than that of the Ming Dynasty. These behaviors made Li Yan disappointed in Li Zicheng.

In addition, Li Yan's personality is upright, and he dares to speak outright in front of Li Zicheng, and offends villains such as Niu Jinxing. And Li Zicheng will not tolerate a person who once helped him overthrow the Ming Dynasty and knows himself very well, but has different ideas from him, to continue to stay by his side, let alone let Li Yan be used by the enemy. So as long as someone fanned the flames, it would not be strange for Li Zicheng to kill Li Yan, the above is a personal analysis.

There are different opinions, but I prefer to follow this one:

According to the official history, Li Yan's original name was Li Xin, a native of Qixian County, Henan, and the son of Li Jingbai, the secretary of the Ming Dynasty's military department. Because he strongly persuaded the local government to stop collecting harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and took out the food stored at home to help the victims, he offended the local ** and the gentry, and ** was imprisoned. When Li Zicheng's troops broke through Qixian, he was rescued from prison, so he surrendered to Li Zicheng, and was later named a general for his merits.

Judging from historical records, Li Yan was born in a prominent family, and he was originally from a different class from the peasant rebel army. At first, he may have been appreciated by Li Zicheng because of his talent, but Li Zicheng was born as a peasant after all, and he had his class conservatism. Later, the more Li Yan showed his talent, the more unhappy he became, and even suspected that one day Li Yan would replace him, so he started to kill.

After Li Zicheng was stationed in Beijing, he gradually alienated Li Yan, and military discipline began to be scattered.

According to me, there are only a few things I know: 1. Li Yan's ability is too strong;

2. Li Yan has a Li Jiazhuang army of his own, and it is quite strong;

3. In Li Zicheng's army, he has quite high prestige and appeal;

4. The military merit is very great, and the merit is high and shocks the Lord.

History has always been like this, just Zhuge Liang and Liu Waibei were surprised!

"King Chuang" Li Zicheng killed Li Yan mainly for these reasons, first of all, the two have different backgrounds, Li Yan was from a prominent background, his father was the governor of Shandong, and Li Zicheng was indeed from the peasant class, and the two were not all the way. At the beginning, Li Zicheng did appreciate the talented Li Yan very much, but as Li Yan's status in the army became higher and higher, and he was appreciated by more and more people, Li Zicheng began to worry about him, and gradually alienated Li Yan, and finally led to listening to slander and killing Li Yan.

The second reason is that Niu Jinxing, who was also Li Zicheng's adviser at that time, added fuel to the fire. At the beginning, Niu Jinxing was recommended to Li Zicheng by Li Yan, and Niu Jinxing did have some talent, but later Niu Jinxing was arrogant, greedy for power, jealous of Li Yan's status, and even wanted to get rid of Li Yan and replace him.

Indeed, Niu Jinxing later found an opportunity to slander Li Yan, and Li Zicheng just found a suitable excuse, but unfortunately Li Yan finally got Li Zicheng's cup of poisonous wine. At that time, it can be said that Li Yan also had the heart to die, with his prestige and status in the army, if he wanted to leave, it was not impossible, but because he had long been disappointed in Li Zicheng, he knew that he had already become a thorn in Li Zicheng's side, and Li Yan, who had the world in mind, calmly accepted this cup of poisonous wine.

Li Yan is also a rare talent, all-round talent in civil and military affairs, very upright conduct, likes to fight grievances, has a righteous heart, and his reputation and prestige in the military camp at that time were very good, which made Li Zicheng have concerns about him. But if Li Zicheng didn't have so many worries at that time and didn't have Niu Jinxing's help, then Li Yan would be Li Zicheng's most powerful assistant, and the final outcome would be very different.

The main reason why Li Zicheng killed Li Yan, a strategist who was bent on plotting for him, in addition to Niu Jinxing's frame-up, was that Li Zicheng was too narrow-minded and narrow-minded.

Li Zicheng was one of the leaders of the peasant rebel army at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and was once a person who was favored by luck and fate, and was the first person to break through the capital and end the Ming Dynasty.

It's a pity that Li Zicheng can't get rid of the consciousness of small farmers in the end, and he is always fascinated by the little bit of small profits in front of him, and he has only entered the capital not long ago, and he has put most of his energy on how to make money.

But as long as he has a little pattern, the most important thing to do at that time is to stabilize the situation, and then send an article, while winning people's hearts, while announcing various problems of the Zhu family, so that he can occupy a dominant position in righteousness, so as to justifiably replace the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Li Zicheng not only has no pattern, but he also has no ability to control the rabble under his hands.

Li Yan has been committed to assisting Li Zicheng to lead the rabble army to regularization, get rid of the rogue nature of the rebel army, and become an army that can really be used to fight the country, and has formulated a relatively complete and feasible plan for Li Zicheng.

But it is precisely because of this that Li Yan offended many people.

Why did Li Yan's approach be obviously right, but he offended so many people? Because once the army is regularized, once there is a system, then everything has to be done according to the system, then the generals under Li Zicheng will not be able to reap the benefits as they like.

The key is that Li Zicheng himself also feels troublesome, he is fighting to grab money and food, but Li Yan jumped out and told him, King Chuang, you must not do this, you have to take out money and food to send to the people, so that the people will belong to you!

What would Li Zicheng think? If I don't rob money or food, what else should I be king? It's no taste to be alive.

Li Yan has offended many people, but if Li Zicheng can support Li Yan, his prestige in the army may not be able to suppress most of the opposition and let Li Yan carry out his plan.

Although Li Yan has been imperceptibly "transforming" Li Zicheng, some people's patterns are born and cannot be changed at all, and Li Zicheng is such a person.

Therefore, Li Yan seems to be very highly regarded by Li Zicheng, but in fact he does not receive Li Zicheng's wholehearted support.

Li Zicheng just treats Li Yan as a night pot, when he can use him, Mr. Li is longer than Mr. Li, and when he is not needed, he is directly stuffed under the bed.

At this time, Niu Jinxing, who wanted to replace Li Yan as the first strategist under Li Zicheng, jumped out at the right time, provoked the relationship between Li Zicheng and Li Yan, and said a few words about Li Yan's plot against him.

The reason why Li Zicheng was provoked so easily was that his vision was too small, second, he didn't know how to recognize and employ people, third, he was narrow-minded, and fourth, because he never really trusted Li Yan.
