Why did Song Taizong destroy Taiyuan City? Is it to destroy the "eternal dragon city" of Long Mai?

When the Song Dynasty was just established, the rulers of the Northern Song Dynasty not only promoted many new policies and guidelines internally, but also wanted to end the long-term separatist regime of the Five Dynasties and Ten Countries. So when Song Taizong heard that Jinyang had many monarchs and was a "Dragon City through the ages", he personally led troops to attack Taiyuan City. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Taiyuan City was also burned with water. ...

Speaking of Taiyuan City, it was called Jinyang in ancient times. The geographical position is superior, with Weng Mountain in the west and Linfen River in the east. Moreover, the city of Jinyang City is also very strong, and many warlords regard it as a fortress for hegemony, and even many people stand on their own feet as emperors. Jinyang experienced many dynasties, such as the late Tang Dynasty, the late Jin Dynasty, the late Han Dynasty and the Northern Han Dynasty. Until 979, Song Taizong personally led the army and attacked Taiyuan City. But Jinyang City is very strong, so Song Jun suffered heavy losses.

But at that time, the Song Dynasty had unified the Central Plains and pacified the south, so there was no worries, so it tried its best to attack Jinyang. Jinyang was finally captured. Since then, the ten northern Han States have been completely unified. As for Song Taizong's intention to destroy Taiyuan City, there is a reason. On the one hand, when attacking Jinyang City, Song Jun suffered heavy losses, and Song Taizong was very angry and wanted to completely destroy Jinyang City to vent his anger.

Another reason is that many people say that Jinyang has the spirit of a king, which happens to be the most taboo in Song Taizong. In addition, when Song Taizong ascended the throne, many Taoist priests helped him. According to the astronomical phenomena attached to Taoism, the place where the Song Dynasty rose belongs to the "area of business prosperity", but Taiyuan belongs to the "area of business prosperity". However, since ancient times, businessmen have never met. Therefore, Song Taizong will destroy Taiyuan City.
