In the past, the two behemoths that occupied a dominant position in the Demon Gate have long since declined, and the Mo family has gradually lost its influence among the people, its strength has declined, and even the inheritance has gradually become incomplete, and after falling into darkness, it has gradually acted in an extreme way, and its internal divisions have occurred many times, and the final result is that the inheritance of the Mo family has not only lost the most precious core ideas of its doctrine: "love" and "non-attack", but also the huge and valuable craftsman knowledge accumulated over hundreds of years. It was also lost because it was unconsciously slighted.

The decline of the Mo family has become a foregone conclusion at this time.

Of course, in the three hundred years from the deposition of Confucianism by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to the eve of the collapse of the Han Empire, in fact, the Mo family has never stopped looking for opportunities to break through in the real predicament, and among them, an action directly led by the Mo family inheritance and shook the empire is undoubtedly the Red Eyebrow Righteous Army directly formed when Wang Mang usurped the throne! is such a strong peasant army, and even once captured Chang'an, the capital of the Han Empire, and there was a faint tendency to annex the world in Guanzhong.

At that time, the only force that had the ability to compete with the Red Eyebrow Army was the Green Forest Army where Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was later, but the Green Forest Army was in disarray at that time, and the Emperor Shi Geng and Liu Xiu's brothers turned against each other, and the internal fighting was fierce, so that the persecuted Liu Xiu had to ride into Hanoi alone, and started from scratch in Shandong by himself, and created his own foundation!

Therefore, the prestige of the Red Eyebrow Army at that time was no longer within the reach of any force, even if it unified the whole country later, it already had a great chance of winning, and Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor at that time, was just a small force in Shandong!

However, the glory of the Red Eyebrow Army can only end here. Because after killing Emperor Shigen and attacking Chang'an, because most of the members of the Red Mei Army themselves were born from the peasant bottom masses, and the backbone was because they were suppressed by the ruling class, so they hated the Mohist disciples of the ruling class. When they occupied Guanzhong, Chang'an, the original center of the empire, the original sin that was originally hidden under the simplicity and kindness in people's hearts was lured out because of this, which caused extremely bad consequences to the Guanzhong region and the Red Eyebrow Army itself.

Guanzhong has experienced repeated wars, and its population and food have been exhausted to the extreme. Although the Red Eyebrow Army invaded Chang'an, it was facing the problem of food shortage, but at this time, because of the blindness brought about by the victory, the Red Eyebrow Army did not find this extremely serious problem, but they were immersed in the prosperity on the surface of the imperial capital, and their fighting spirit was consumed, and at the same time. Because of the hatred for the imperial nobles in their hearts, the Red Eyebrow Army, who were born in poverty, wantonly destroyed everything they could see that symbolized the status and wealth of the imperial nobles. As a result, not only the landlords in Guanzhong, but also the slaves who were attached to the landlords became the targets of oppression and extortion by the Red Mei Army, and the graves of the rich families that can be seen everywhere on the land of Guanzhong have also become the targets of the Red Mei Army to vent their hatred!

The biggest tomb robbery and excavation operation ever carried out by the Red Mei Army was the digging of the mausoleum of a generation of famous Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. According to some wild historical records, the wealth obtained by the Red Mei Army was not fully transported for three months, so that two hundred years later, when Dong Zhuo, the destroyer of the Han Empire, once again stole and excavated the tomb of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The harvest is also quite rich!

At that time, the nominal leader of the Red Eyebrow Army was Liu Penzi, a descendant of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, however, this so-called leader was actually just a puppet pushed out by the high-level of the Red Eyebrow Army, and he did not have the slightest influence on the Red Eyebrow Army, so he naturally did not have any organizational ability for the perverse actions of the Red Eyebrow Army!

The Red Eyebrow Army has created a catastrophe because of this! It must be known that as early as the beginning of a very long time, the Chinese nation attaches great importance to the burial of their ancestors and a series of sacrificial activities, and the act of digging the graves of their ancestors is tantamount to rebellion against the entire Chinese civilization!

Although a lot of wealth has been obtained because of tomb robbery, but because of this move, the situation of the Red Mei Army in Guanzhong is becoming more and more sinister, the landlords and powerful have formed an alliance to confront the Red Mei Army, and the Red Mei Army has rapidly become corrupt and degenerate due to the wealth obtained suddenly, so that when the crisis of large-scale food shortage finally broke out in Guanzhong, the Red Mei Army that suddenly woke up from Fugui Township suddenly discovered a grim fact: at this time, they were already surrounded by strong enemies!

From Shandong to the Central Plains, Liu Xiu relied on his strong military and political ability, coupled with the support of a series of forces of the Demon Gate represented by Yin Lihua behind him, and his strength was extremely inflated in a short period of time, so that when the Red Eyebrow Army finally discovered the predicament it fell into, Liu Xiu's forces had basically controlled most of the areas east of Tongguan, and the whole country was in a melee at that time, Liu Xiu's forces, He has become the strongest at that time!

However, because of its own perverse behavior, the Red Eyebrow Army caused a joint confrontation of powerful landlords in the Guanzhong region! Because Liu Xiu is a royal family surnamed Liu, and known as benevolence and righteousness, at this time he has become the strongest separatist force in the country, so the powerful armed forces in Guanzhong simply surrendered to Liu Xiu, and the condition is that in exchange for Liu Xiu to lead his troops to the west to attack the Chimei army separatist forces that occupy the area of Guanzhong!!

Whether it is to seize the world more easily, or as a Han royal family, he can attack Guanzhong and occupy Chang'an, of course Liu Xiu can't ask for this, and therefore, Liu Xiu quickly accepted the surrender of the local powerful forces, and quickly sent multiple armies to launch an extremely fierce offensive against the Red Mei Army entrenched in Guanzhong!!

However, after all, the Red Mei Army is an army composed of oppressed poor people, and the descendants of the Mo family are the backbone of the force, so the strength of combat effectiveness is undoubted, although the tiger falls in Pingyang in a predicament, but it is not a soft persimmon that allows Liu Xiu to pinch round and flatten, after the road to return to Shandong was completely blocked by Liu Xiu's army because of the food exhaustion, the Red Mei Army once broke out with amazing combat effectiveness, and repeatedly hit Liu Xiu's army, and the capital of the empire, Chang'an, also changed hands for a time, which shows the intensity of the battle at that time!

However, the Red Mei Army, which fought in a foreign land and could not be replenished with soldiers and materials, was finally gradually exhausted in the fierce battle, while Liu Xiu became stronger and stronger because of the continuous replenishment behind him, and therefore, when the war lasted until the second year, the Red Mei Army, which was once glorious, had completely fallen into a state of decline! Sitting in the isolated city of Chang'an has completely brought about its own destruction, so the top leaders at that time were forced to decide to break through to the east at any cost, until they returned to the former hometown of the Red Mei Army in Shandong!

You must know that when the Red Eyebrow Army entered the Guanzhong, the number of the Red Eyebrow Army was enough to be one million, but after entering the Guanzhong, with the fierce war between the Red Eyebrow Army and many heroes and Liu Xiu in Guanzhong one after another, but in just two years, the military strength of the Red Eyebrow Army plummeted, and there were only more than 200,000 people left, and due to the serious consequences of food shortage, the combat effectiveness of the Red Eyebrow Army soldiers generally showed a downward trend!

However, even so, the strength of this army is still not to be underestimated, and even, because of the fact that it has fallen into a near-death state, the momentum of the death is even more indomitable! Therefore, even though Liu Xiu had already laid down layers of heavy troops on the way back from the Red Mei Army's return home, the Red Mei Army still relied on its indomitable momentum to fight all the way and fight a bloody road!

At this time, no one can stop such an army, and neither can Liu Xiu, unless he is stupid and will spare all his strength to fight with this red-eyed army that is desperate to survive, but in that case, Liu Xiu's strength will inevitably suffer a serious blow because of this, and in such a chaotic era where the whole world is still rising together and attacking each other, it is definitely a great bad thing for Liu Xiu that his own strength is greatly weakened!

Therefore, even though he knew that letting the Red Mei Army return to the east was tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, Liu Xiu still had to open the way to the East for the Red Mei Army to avoid that the army under his command would suffer major losses due to the bloody battle with the Red Mei Army!

And the Red Eyebrow Army is almost on the verge of escaping because of this!

Yes, just ...... It's just a little bit worse......

In addition to saying that he is benevolent and loves the people, and uses soldiers like gods to govern the country, etc., the history books of the world in later generations evaluate Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, in addition to saying that he is benevolent and loves the people, and uses soldiers such as gods and judo to govern the country, etc., they often add some titles such as the chosen one, the son of luck, and the people of heaven, etc., and these strange titles, even if they are gifted with divine power, and the emperors who are engaged in the divine right of the monarch, are also extremely rare, however, these titles of Liu Xiu are not made up by unscrupulous historians in order to please the emperor, but they really have a magical factual basis!

For example, the Kunyang Battle that made Liu Xiu famous! Thousands of troops are no matter how can not be used to defeat Wang Mang's 400,000 army in the city, however, when Liu Xiu arrived at the battlefield and was ready to launch a decisive charge, history clearly recorded: the wind was strong, a comet fell in Wang Mang's army, Wang Mang's army fell into collapse in an instant, in this God-given opportunity, Liu Xiu bravely led the army into the army, so he took advantage of the chaos to completely defeat Wang Mang's counterinsurgency army, and destroyed the foundation of Wang Mang's new dynasty in a battle, and Liu Xiu also moved the world because of this battle!!

And a few years later, when the embarrassed Red Eyebrow Army once again broke through many obstacles and was about to enter the sea, forming a major obstacle for Liu Xiu in the future conquest of the world, the smile of the goddess of fate once again favored the future Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu!

Historical records: In that year, the climate in the Guanzhong area was abnormal, and when the Red Mei Army was about to break out of the encirclement, the sky and the earth suddenly fell heavy snow, and the power of heaven and earth was not something that human power could resist after all! The Red Eyebrow Army, which was already in a predicament due to lack of food and clothing, was forced by the sudden cold, and countless soldiers starved to death and froze to death! Liu Xiu immediately seized the favorable opportunity to send troops to pursue, and finally, at the mouth of the Yellow River's tributaries, the remnants of the Red Mei Army were besieged!!
