794 Liu Zhang was proclaimed emperor
As a member of the Han family, he didn't even resist the last resistance, so what kind of face did he have to meet the previous emperors of the Han Empire after he died?
Not to mention being forced to go to Luoyang to surrender with his family and surrender table.
Clear-eyed people know that this is a conspiracy, whether they can come back this time is two, the whole family will fall into the hands of Guo Peng, when the time comes, people will be swords, I will be fish and meat, pinch flat and pinch round, or Guo Peng has the final say?
His own dignified ancestral bloodline, how can he be reduced to this point?
Liu Biao can't accept it, can't accept it at all.
When someone suggested that surrender might not be a way out, they were scolded by Liu Biao.
Liu Biao insisted on calling the emperor the Northern Expedition to show that he and Guo Peng were incompatible.
But in this way, where do you put Jingzhou Haoqiang and the Shi clan?
They don't want their family business to be ruined, and if their family business is ruined, what if it does?
Who wants to do such a thing with you, a soil emperor?
The powerful Wei regime in the north has been formally established, we are doing this with you, in Guo Peng's eyes, everyone is rebellious, and it is difficult to say how Guo Peng will treat us rebels at that time.
Therefore, to sum up, it is absolutely impossible for them to let Liu Biao be the emperor, and the only one who is willing to help Liu Biao speak is Huang Zu.
"Could it be that watching Guo Zifeng usurp the Han dynasty and sit firmly on the throne of this emperor? Isn't the clan of the Ming Dynasty and the Han family more suitable to be the emperor than Guo Zifeng? ”
Huang Zu was very indignant and worked very hard to speak for Liu Biao.
However, apart from Huang Zu, there are very few people who are willing to speak for him, and everyone seems to have a tacit understanding to play the non-violent non-cooperation movement.
Liu Biao was even more sad and indignant in his heart, and slapped the table.
"Why don't you tie me up and give it to Guo Zifeng! Isn't that a good thing for you?! ”
After saying that, he coughed a few times, covered his mouth and staggered out of the chamber, his back was slightly desolate.
Things froze like this, but everyone didn't expect that it was Liu Zhang who broke the deadlock.
Liu Zhang's side knew the news of Guo Peng's proclamation as emperor a little later than Liu Biao's side, and met Guo Peng's envoy a little later.
Guo Peng's requirements for Liu Zhang are the same, take his family and the surrender table to Luoyang to surrender, and personally present the surrender table, then he can still do the history of Yizhou Thorn, and the officials at all levels in Yizhou are in different places, and each has its own reward.
For such a thing, Yizhou was naturally shaken in all directions, and even Wu Ban and Wu Yi, who were commanding the army to plunder resources on the Nanzhong front, hurried back.
A group of Dongzhou courtiers and a group of Yizhou local courtiers quarreled over Guo Peng's order.
Guo Peng said that the emperor was naturally a big thing that broke the earth, and the people of Yizhou were shocked by it and felt a little uncomfortable, but soon, the locals of Yizhou got used to it.
Not only did they adapt quickly, but they also quickly realized that if it were not for Liu Zhang, the emperor of the soil, their lives would be much better than they are now, and there would be no Dongzhou people to snatch their cakes.
So they went to the table again and again, persuading Liu Zhang not to use his mantis arm as a car, so that Liu Zhang could see the reality clearly, realize the huge gap between himself and Guo Peng, surrender quickly, and stop continuing to harm our locals and so on.
Liu Zhang's side is having no master of the six gods, and even has a vague tendency to surrender Guo Peng.
Then the people of Dongzhou are a little unhappy, if Liu Zhang is gone, then those of them who have fought against Guo Wei in the Northern Expedition with Liu Zhang will really die without a place to be buried, okay?
Especially the two brothers of the Wu family, they fought with Guo Peng in person, and they fought for Hanzhong unrelentingly, if this fell into the hands of Guo Peng, would it still be good?
If they don't keep Shuzhong alive, they really don't know how to die.
For them, Shuzhong is the only way out.
So they resolutely disagreed with Liu Zhang's actions, saying that Liu Zhang's doing this is suicide, and when the time comes, people will be swords, I will be fish and meat, Guo Peng will kill him or not is a matter of one sentence, and there are still tens of thousands of troops who can protect him if they stay in Shu.
Wu Yi met Liu Zhang in person, and he poured out his heart and lungs for Liu Zhang, and tore off the face of the local bureaucrats in Yizhou.
"They surrendered, they can continue to be officials, and they can continue to stay in the local area to live their own lives, Guo Zifeng needs them and will not hurt them, but if you lose Yizhou, what else is there? The best estimate is that the end is the same as the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, a bird in a cage! ”
Liu Zhang was startled, and suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.
But he was still terrified.
"We had so many troops before, and we were all vulnerable in the face of Guo Zifeng, didn't the general also fight Guo Zifeng head-on? We still can't do anything, once Guo Zifeng's army comes to Shuzhong, what else can we do? ”
Wu Yi shook his head again and again.
"That's Pang Xi's collaboration with the enemy, directly giving up the Qinling Mountains, making us very passive, if the Qinling Mountains are in hand, Guo Zifeng's 100,000 troops will not want to come to Hanzhong! The situation is different now than it was then.
Although we have lost Hanzhong, we can still defend Baishui Pass, Baishui Pass is not guaranteed, and there is also the Sword Pavilion Heavenly Danger, one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open, holding such a strong pass, but still have to surrender, is this the situation that the king wants to see? ”
Liu Zhang's heart was up and down.
"What does the general mean is that if Guo Zifeng wants to fight, we can win?"
"Don't say whether you can win or not, at least you can drag down his logistics, as long as his food and grass are not enough, you must retreat, as long as he retreats, we will win, defend the natural danger in Shuzhong, and never let any Wei soldiers enter Shuzhong!"
Wu Yi resolutely asked for his life.
"General...... The general has such pride, and Lone is very pleased. ”
Liu Zhang's heart was a little calm.
As a result, Wu Yi's next words made him raise his heart to his throat again.
"Now that the Han Emperor has been abolished by Guo Zifeng, the Han family is in danger, so that the monarch is the clan of the Han family, the blood of the ancestors, why not take the throne as the emperor, inherit the Han unification, and call on the people of insight in the world to attack Guo Weiqun in the name of the Han Emperor?"
"Weigh...... Emperor? ”
Liu Zhang was frightened: "How can I be the emperor?" ”
"Why can't the king be the emperor? Guo Zifeng Yijie rebelled and usurped the throne and called the emperor, usurped the mountains and rivers of the Han family, and the king was a relative of the Han family, why couldn't he be called the emperor to inherit the orthodoxy of the Han family? The king is not called the emperor, who else in the world can be called the emperor, and who else can inherit the mountains and rivers of the Han Dynasty? ”
Wu Yi said loudly: "Minister, I respectfully ask the king to take the throne to inherit the Han heir, and call on the people of the world who have the Han family in their hearts to attack Guo Wei and restore the mountains and rivers of the Han family!" In this way, the Han dynasty will inevitably recover! ”
Liu Zhang was so frightened for a long time that he couldn't react.
Wu Yi did not persecute Liu Zhang at that time, but then he pressed step by step.
In order to make Liu Zhang more "at ease" to claim the emperor, Wu Yi brought a large group of outstanding Dongzhou generals who had been trained in the war in Nanzhong to the palace of the king of Shu, and asked Liu Zhang to "speak to his face", asking Liu Zhang to take the safety of the world as his own responsibility, abandon his personal worries, and proclaim himself emperor in heaven.
Wu Yi said don't worry, even if you don't have a throne, we can make one for you.
Liu Zhang was forced to be helpless, and there was really no way, so he had to announce that he was the emperor in February of the first year of Yande.
Compared with Guo someone, Liu Zhang really didn't want to do it, and he didn't dare to do it, but he was forced to do it.
The name of the country is still Han, and it is not changed, and in order to show the legitimacy of this regime to the people of the world, the name of the era is directly set as orthodox.
Because the preparations were in a hurry, even the emperor's crown dress was not fully prepared, Liu Zhang's clothes didn't even fit very well, and his shoes felt a little big, but he didn't have time to change them.
In order to make this founding ceremony look lively, the generals directly used military coercion to force local officials to participate in the founding ceremony, forcing them to recognize Liu Zhang's Shu Han regime.
The founding ceremony ended in a relatively lively situation.
