Red sheep robbery?

"Red sheep robbery" is a historical prophecy. During the Southern Song Dynasty in Li Nian, Chai Wang, a fortune teller, attracted the attention of the imperial court with a book called "A Guide to Turtles": every year in the afternoon and the year of the year, there would be disasters in the country. The heavenly stems "C", "D" and the earthly branches "V" are all fires in the five elements of yin and yang, and the earthly branches "Wei" are sheep in the zodiac. Once every 60 years, it is called "Red Sheep Robbery". The most painful memory of Song people, "the shame of Jingkang", happened in Bingwu year (1 126). According to its statistics, from Bingwu in the 52nd year of Qin Xiang (255 BC) to Tianfu in the 12th year of the Five Dynasties (947 AD), * * experienced 2 1 time Bingwu, and both experienced turmoil or natural disasters. Although the modern Taiping Rebellion did not take place in these two years, it was also called "Red Sheep Robbery" because of the surname relationship between the flag bearer Hong Xiuquan and Yang (Hong and Yang). The year when the Cultural Revolution was launched (A.D. 1966) coincided with the third afternoon of the summer calendar, which was also considered as "Red Sheep Robbery". Jiang Yang has a chronicle of Wu Bing Ding Wei dedicated to it.

The saying of "Red Sheep Robbery" has existed since ancient times. It means that the country will encounter great turmoil and catastrophe every three days and in the fourth year. Later generations regarded Bing Ding as a fire, red in color and unworthy of sheep, hence the name "Red Sheep Robbery". It is reported that during the Li Zongnian period in Song Taizu, Chai Wang said in his book "Bing Ding Gui Jian": "Wu Bing is not dead, and his year is the year of famine and war in China." According to the historical statistics from the Warring States to the Five Dynasties, it is considered that the year of "Red Sheep" is a disaster year in China. From the fifty-second year of Qin Xiang (Bingwu, 255 BC) to the twelfth year of Tianfu in the Five Dynasties (Ding Wei, 947 AD), there were 1260 years, and Bingwu and each 2 1 year were turbulent years in China. More than a thousand years have passed since the Five Dynasties, and there have been several "red sheep robberies" in history. Have there been any disturbances in these years? I haven't done statistics. Last century, China experienced two years. At the beginning of the 20th century, the period of the Reform Movement of 1898 and Ding Wei (1906-1907) was on the eve of the outbreak of the Revolution of 1911, and there were different opinions about whether it was a disaster. My generation was born late, and I have never met more "red sheep", but I still remember the only Ding Wei (1967) deeply. This is a typical, globally recognized and conclusive "catastrophe of the Chinese nation"!

The last Red Sheep robbery was in 1906 and 2007 (thirty-two and thirty-three years of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty). The ancients always thought that the old man robbed by the red sheep could be reversed the day after tomorrow to minimize the damage. In the year before the Red Sheep robbery, the Qing court sent five ministers, Zai Ze, Zai Hongci, Duan Fang, Shang Jiheng and Li Duo, to study foreign politics and prepare for constitutionalism. Unfortunately, after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1898, the Reform Movement of 1898 and the Battle of Eight-Nation Alliance in 1900, Empress Dowager Cixi in that country was old. She had neither the courage to promote reform nor the fear of environmental change. The Red Sheep Robbery missed the opportunity of constitutionalism, which was followed by the collapse of the Qing Dynasty and the endless civil war in the Republic of China for decades.

Chai Wang is reviewing the Three Kingdoms period. Transcribe the records of the Three Kingdoms in large sections. In the year of Bingwu in 226 AD, several important events were copied, such as killing Bao Xun, exempting Cao Hong and Cao Pi from the death penalty, and making a decision to guard against Dongwu attack in Cao Rui. In 227, the only important thing in Chai Wang's transcription was that Zhuge Liang went out to Hanzhong.

Chai Wang's comments on Ding Bing's death time mainly focus on Sima Yi who died in Wendi. He believed that his death was the beginning of Sima's usurpation of Cao.

The author believes that this time, in addition to the domestic political turmoil in Wei, the significance of Zhuge Liang's northern expedition can not be ignored. After that, Zhuge Liang went to the North for seven years in a row, which had a considerable military, political and economic impact on Wei until Zhuge Liang died of illness. What is particularly interesting here is how the ups and downs of Zhuge Liang's personal destiny are related to the ups and downs of his country's destiny. Among many problems to be studied, one bright spot is Zhuge Liang's birthday. He was born in Guichou Day and had an indissoluble bond with Ding Weinian's main branch.

Zhuge Liang, born on a disgraceful day, played the role of a playful athlete in Ding's turbulent turning point. His extraordinary life quickly went to the final passion and extinction with the turbulent wave of Bing Ding 'e.
