Everything is like a repetition of history, but a new group of people are performing on the stage of history.

Relying on internal pressure, the empire got a chance to attack first, and invested six legions with a long history and outstanding achievements, plus more than 4,000 cannons and 600,000 troops, to kill the eastern part of Jiaozhou. Just when the Southern Army and the volunteers in various places were being defeated and retreated, the Beiyang Fleet, after a long battle, suddenly announced the establishment of the Japan-Korea alliance and no longer accepted Luoyang's guidance.

The sailors were tired of the endless battles, and they fought bloodily on the front lines, but many of their wives and children were starved to death. Led by a middle-ranking officer named Liu Hong, a part of the fleet and sailors launched an uprising, seized Korea and Japan, and no longer obeyed Luoyang's orders.

Liu Hong claimed to be a descendant of the emperor and empress, and he did show many miraculous places. As for why Chen Cheng's descendants have the surname Liu, this is another question. After Liu Hong seized Japan and Korea, he fought several battles with the imperial army in northern Korea, and the two sides were evenly matched.

After the remnants of the Beiyang Fleet also joined the rebellion, Liu Hong retreated the troops on the front line back three hundred miles, luring the imperial army deeper. Subsequently, under the cover of the Beiyang Fleet, Liu Hong personally landed at Inchon with the marines and surrounded the 200,000 imperial army.

A month later, the Imperial Army, which had run out of ammunition and food, chose to surrender. The defeat on the Korean battlefield shocked the government and the opposition, and Chen Tao had to withdraw hundreds of thousands of troops from the south, preparing to concentrate on recapturing Korea first. But Liu Hong had already built a fortress in the mountains to the north, on which the imperial army had smashed their heads and bled without gaining anything.

Even if the railgun was dragged to the front line and the mountain peaks were flattened by several meters, it still failed to force Liu Hong to submit. Even during the battle, many Liaodong people brought their own dry food to join Liu Hongjun's side. After two years of confrontation, Chen Tao set off another unprecedented flood, raised an army of more than 600,000 people, mobilized 5,000 cannons, and prepared to smash the rebels' fortresses in one fell swoop, but a large-scale anti-hunger march broke out in China.

Nearly 300,000 people in Luoyang City also participated in the parade, and almost all the young people in Luoyang City participated. Chen Tao shouted in the palace: "I plan for the world, how can I pity the small people!" These people marched illegally, and their crimes are unforgivable, and they should be suppressed immediately! ”

He urgently sent his troops into the city and suppressed the marching populace with heavy machine guns and artillery. Subsequently, the Shinrikyo priest, who had secretly infiltrated, mobilized the people of the city, built barricades on the streets and alleys of Luoyang, and fought street battles with the imperial army. Workers in the arsenal outside the city killed the officials above their heads, pushed cannons, and joined the ranks of the uprising with rifles on their shoulders.

The melee lasted for two months, and the city of Elysium, once the world's number one, was devastated by artillery fire. The Tower of Babel, which was originally used for banquets for officials and high-ranking people of all ranks, was also turned into a military fortress. The Imperial army erected sandbags in the floors of the building, dragged the cannons up, and opened fire on the city.

When Chen Cheng was still alive, the population of the empire had increased seven or eight times because of the promotion of high-yield crops such as potatoes and the improvement of medical standards. When Chen Sheng was emperor, the population increased several times. By the time of the Great Rebellion, the population of the empire itself exceeded 60 million. Of these many people, at least eighty percent are struggling to make ends meet.

The seeds of rebellion have been planted long ago, and now is the time to bear fruit. At the time of the Battle of Luoyang, turmoil broke out in various places. Luoyang is the most prosperous place in the empire, not to mention that it has been fought for so long, and more than 100,000 people have been killed and wounded. Even if it was just a shot here, it would be a political event.

At the instigation of those fanatical Shinrikyo priests, the officers and men of the army also defected, and even the Xiliang Dragoon Headquarters stationed near Yinchuan also fell to the side of Shinrikyo. Because of tradition, this order was already filled with a large number of emperor worshippers, and many people believed that they were blessed by the emperor and could have a secret connection with the emperor.

The Grand Master of the Order announced that he had received an edict from the Emperor in his dream, and that Chen Tao was no longer the legitimate successor of the Emperor, so the Order had relieved its allegiance to the Son of Heaven in Luoyang and had instead become the Guardian Order under the command of the Cult of Truth. They held aloft the emperor's quotations, and as soon as they raised their arms, several legions and more than 100,000 soldiers of Xiliang County joined the rebellion.

After so many years of development, Xiliang Dragoon has perfected the training and advancement methods of knights. Compared to their predecessors, they are much larger, have higher strength and agility, and are proficient in using a variety of weapons. When they charged with bombs, heavy machine guns and artillery, even the elite troops from Luoyang could not resist.

The heavy machine gun that has just been installed for a few years has more than 50 pounds, which was originally used in defensive battles, but this group of brothers and nobles can hold and charge alone, who can stop this? The original Xiliang dragoon wore heavy plate armor of more than fifty catties, and fought with weapons such as horizontal knives, spears, shields, and maces. The current Xiliang Dragoons no longer wear heavy armor, but carry heavy machine guns and infantry guns to launch an assault.

They also did not abandon the ancient craft, the skill of "throwing" was carried forward, throwing grenades and explosives bags that called a skill. The Xiliang Dragoons who have successfully advanced can accurately throw a three-kilogram grenade into a basket 80 meters away, and when they are not carrying heavy machine guns and artillery, they can carry heavy machine guns, carry grenades and explosives bags, and run dozens of miles at a speed of six seconds per 100 meters, which is simply livestock.

In addition, they can all vaguely perceive the existence of enemies around them, even if they are injured, as long as they are not killed on the spot, even if they are rotten in their intestines, they can quickly heal from their injuries. Even after someone has their hands and feet blown off, it takes a while to grow.

After the advancement of weapons, the absolute dominance of the Xiliang Dragoons on the battlefield has decreased a lot, but after they are equipped with new weapons, they have become more dangerous. The only problem is that the number of Xiliang Dragoons is too small, because they can only select talents from the good families of the six counties, and the official members of the knights have never exceeded 1,000.

Shinrikyo saw this and helped the Order continue to grow, allowing them to select reserve members in the Indian subcontinent and Europe in exchange for the Western Ragoons joining the rebels.

With the existence of so many unreasonable brothers and nobles, there are so many people who firmly believe that the emperor has returned to the sky and become a true god. In addition to these highly trained knights, there are people in the world who can do the same; The descendants of those emperors are more or less supernatural.

As soon as Chen Tao suppressed the rebellion in Luoyang, he received the news that the Xiliang Dragoons had captured Chang'an and marched to Tongguan. Standing at the top of the Tower of Babel, Chen Tao looked in the northwest direction and sighed: "Back then, the Duke of Liang Guo said that if China was strong, Liangzhou would be the seat of Zhang China. But once China weakens, it is a source of trouble. ”

He complained to Chen Cheng and said, "Why did Taizu leave such a scourge as the Xiliang Dragoon and the Shinrikyo? ”

Of course, Chen Cheng couldn't answer his question, and all that responded to him was the roaring cannons in Luoyang City. The battle was still going on, and the Imperial Army had already gained the upper hand, but as soon as the matter of the Xiliang Dragoon came out, many troops began to wait and see. Now the situation is unclear, so everyone naturally has to look at the limelight first.

There is no disobedience on the surface, but isn't it simple to make excuses? You can just make up a reason.

You must know that Chen Tao is the son of Chen Sheng and Zhao Yun's granddaughter, and the Xiliang Dragon Riding was founded by Chen Cheng and then trained by Zhao Yun. Now that even the Xiliang Dragoon has joined the rebel side, is it true that today's son is no longer favored by the emperor?

Then things began to go in another direction, and many people claimed that he was the one who inherited the emperor's divinity and had the right to claim Luoyang and Chang'an. When the princes and lords of various places were proclaimed emperors, the princes of India discussed together, thinking that we could also do this thing.

Sun Wen, a direct descendant of Sun Wu, was pushed out and became the president of the Tianzhu Republic, vowing to fulfill the emperor's ideals and establish a society where "the world is peaceful and land rights are equal". However, after he was sworn in, he didn't do anything, so he patronized and married a teenage girl as his wife.

He successively married Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei's descendants, and they all started when the other party was a teenager. Later, the Shinrikyo priests couldn't stand it anymore and helped him build a military academy in Ceylon to train junior officers. I heard that this side was opened, and the Xiliang Dragoon in Yinchuan also sent people to establish a branch, preparing to absorb people to join the knights.

However, it will take a long time for these to be effective, and before that, the Xiliang army, united under the name of the emperor's son, has already attacked the city of Luoyang. The self-proclaimed "son of the emperor" was Chen Cheng's youngest son, named Wang Hu, the last boy born to Chen Cheng and Wang Lin.

He did not follow his father's surname, but his mother's surname Wang Lin. He is already in his seventies, and he has served as the Grand Master of the Xiliang Dragoon for twenty years. Wang Hu didn't want to come out to make trouble, but Chen Tao's actions completely angered him, so he was angry and raised troops.

When Jiaozhou in the south launched a rebellion, some people made it known that they were descendants of the emperor and queen. After Chen Tao learned about it, he ordered the ban on all writings and records about the emperor, and this is not the end. Han Sui's great-grandson Han Gang keenly discovered the intentions of today's son, so he dedicated a strange book.

The title of this strange book is called "The Chronicle of the Western Liang War", which was written by Han Sui in his later years in order to vent his anger, and the book said that "the Battle of Chencang, the Battle of Huangbei Mountain, the Battle of Guanzhong and other key battles in the early stage of the Western Liang Army were actually commanded by me," "In fact, at that time, the Yongle Emperor also listened to my command, because I was the oldest and had the most combat experience", "The establishment of the empire, I Han Sui is the biggest hero!" ”

What else is "after the middle and ordinary years, the crop output increased greatly because of my efforts", "It's a pity that the general didn't allow me to conduct any more research in this area, otherwise, the yield per mu would not be 10,000 catties!" ”

This book was full of all kinds of strange things, after Han Sui's death, Han Li originally wanted to burn this thing, but he remembered that it was written by his deceased father one by one, and he couldn't bear to do it, so he collected it. Later, Han Li died, and I don't know how this book was turned out, and then dedicated to Chen Tao.

After Chen Tao got the book, he ordered the Ministry of Industry to print hundreds of thousands of copies, and then distributed them all over the world. Wang Hu is seventy years old, although his body is still strong and he can eat five catties of beef in one meal, but he may suddenly decay at some point, and then die quickly. He has already written a suicide note, explained all kinds of things clearly, and waited for the day when he took his last breath.

But Chen Tao's approach was too outrageous, and the old man Wang was so angry after seeing the book "Xiliang War Chronicles", so he led his troops to fight all the way to Luoyang City.
