Chapter 69: Attack on Tongguan
In the first month of the first year of Qianyou of the Han Dynasty, Liu Zhiyuan, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was already terminally ill, summoned Guo Wei, Wang Zhang, Shi Hongzhao, Yang Wei, and Su Fengji, and entrusted his second son Liu Chengyou to these iron buddies. ใLatest chapter reading. At the same time, before he died, he repeatedly told one thing: Du Chongwei must be given Du Chongwei Du Chongwei surrendered in December last year.
In the second half of this month, Han Gaozu, who had only been emperor for ten months, died of illness. Among the founding emperors of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, only Meng Zhixiang, the ancestor of Later Shu, can be compared with him, and Meng Zhixiang is even more powerful, and this little emperor who only enjoyed the life of an emperor for five months collapsed.
After the death of Han Gaozu, Guo Wei and others hurriedly dragged Du Chongwei out of his home and wiped his neck with a knife in accordance with the last order of Emperor Daxing. Then in early February, Liu Chengyou was officially proclaimed to inherit the throne.
Liu Zhiyuan has only been the emperor for ten months, and he has not had time to spread his grace widely, and the only people he can believe are those ministers who follow him all the year round, such as Guo Wei and Shi Hongzhao. These five people can indeed be regarded as the loyalty of the old Liu family. It's a pity that there are internal contradictions among these people, Guo Wei, Shi Hongzhao, Wang Zhang, Yang Wei These four people are a group, Guo Wei is introverted, Taoguang is obscure, and Shi Hongzhao, Wang Zhang, Yang Wei is arrogant and domineering, and he can't look at those scholars in life or death, take Wang Zhang as an example, he is the third envoy, the household department is still in charge, and he is in charge of the treasury, and most of the officials under him are reading people, but he calls these people "bookkeepers". At this time, the entire Shilin had some opinions about Wang Zhang. Shi Hongzhao and Yang Wei are even more disagreeable, these two people are extremely greedy for money and often do some power-for-money transactions. This Su Fengji is a reader, but this reader is not as good as those big bosses, this guy is still in the Ministry of Officials, and he has also been in the Criminal Department for a while, often arresting a thief, trying cases, and formulating some laws and regulations, but unfortunately, this guy is not good at reading, and he always likes to take things for granted, and he is also ruthless, reversing black and white, and carelessly disregarding people's lives. For example, when Liu Zhiyuan was still the king of Taiyuan, he once inadvertently asked Su Fengji: "I heard that there are too many prisoners in our Taiyuan prison, you go back and deal with it." "This probably means that Su Fengji will let some people go. But Su Fengji received the will, didn't ask, arrested all those prisoners, and cut them all in one go. Then, happily ran back to report to Liu Zhiyuan, and said, "King, there is no one in there now." Liu Zhiyuan thought that Su Fengji had let everyone go, and he was quite happy in his heart.
The rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty fell into the hands of these five people, is that okay? The news of Liu Zhiyuan's death reached Hezhong Prefecture in present-day Yongjixi, Shanxi, and Li Shouzhen, the protector of the country, immediately proclaimed himself the king of Qin and raised the banner of rebellion. This Li Shouzhen can also be regarded as a strong general, he led his soldiers and horses to Tongguan, preparing to defeat Tongguan and then enter Bianjing.
There are many reasons for Li Shouzhen's rebellion, first, as a former important minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, he always felt that he was not energetic in the Han Dynasty, and he was not an official when he was not in the Great Jin Dynasty; second, Du Chongwei's death made Li Shouzhen feel more or less sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, he was afraid that Guo Wei's group would hack him; Third, he felt that Liu Zhiyuan's death was too inopportune, the new Han Dynasty was established, and the founding emperor was hanged, leaving a little doll Liu Chengyou, who was a fart; Fourth, the monks in his house always said that he had an image, and implied that he could be the emperor.
There are four reasons for this, Li Shouzhen's heart is a little lively. Ten years ago, An Chongrong said: "Only those who are strong and strong can be deserved!" "Now, Liu Zhiyuan is dead, Du Chongwei is dead, who is he afraid of? Don't forget, he used to be the capital of the North Road camp of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty were all his subordinates except those in Taiyuan. Moreover, Li Shouzhen also faintly remembered the fortune told him by Chen Chuan of Huashan the year before last, when he heard that Chen Chuanyun traveled to his jurisdiction, he quickly invited this master in, and entertained him with good wine and food, and finally, Chen Legend: "Let your family stand up and let me see." Li Shouzhen hurriedly let his family come out and stood in a row, Chen Chuan looked at it a few times, pointed to his daughter-in-law and said, "This person is the mother of the world!" โ
In other words, my daughter-in-law wants to be the queen, my daughter-in-law is the queen, isn't my son the emperor? This is what the master said, thinking of this, Li Shouzhen's confidence is even stronger. Riding on the horse was even more happy, and he urged the army to march towards Tongguan. It's a pity that he didn't expect that this daughter-in-law, after all, is different from his son, this daughter-in-law will indeed become a queen in the future, but Ke'er died early. Chen Chuan's words did not mean that their family would be prosperous, but that this daughter-in-law would be prosperous in the future.
This Tongguan is the surface of the mountains and rivers, and the steep can't be in a steep place. But there is no way, rebellion, what I was doing was a desperate job, even if it was a sea of swords and fires, I had to break through. After arriving at Tongguan, Li Shouzhen immediately commanded the army to launch an offensive against Tongguan, and Li Shouzhen was quite generous to the soldiers, and was also quite supported by the soldiers. At that moment, these sergeants were not afraid of death, holding shields, or placing bows and arrows, or firing stone throwers, shouting and killing like thunder. It's a pity that the battle is not bigger than the loud voice, and the rebels below shouted quite vigorously, losing a few hundred people, before rushing under the city walls. Set up the ladder, just half of the fear, the city tower rolling stones and trees fell down one after another, smashed these people, there is no way to avoid it, it doesn't take much effort, and hundreds of soldiers and horses are broken.
"Seventh brother, it's been half a day, why haven't you sent a signal yet? Are they too nervous and forget? In a canyon near Tongguan, Zhao Kuangyin with 3,000 white-clothed cavalry was waiting for the signal from Tongguan. As early as ten days ago, Guo Rong finally got an appointment from Guo Wei to guard Tongguan. Li Shouzhen's actions have long been clear to them. At that moment, Wang Pu set up this offensive and defensive plan. Defend Tongguan with infantry, ambush Tongguan with cavalry, and wait for Li Shouzhen's army to attack the city and be exhausted, the cavalry stands out and defeats Li Shouzhen in one fell swoop. Don't forget, this Li Shouzhen came from Shanxi, whether it is Henan or Guanzhong, it is all in the hands of the Han Dynasty. Taking advantage of Li Shouzhen's low morale, he highlighted the surprise soldiers, making Li Shouzhen think that the rescuers from Guanzhong were coming, so that under the panic, the possibility of Li Shouzhen's defeat was extremely high.
But for Shi Shouxin, watching others fight here, his heart is inevitably itchy, and he keeps standing up and looking, for fear of missing the signal sent by Tongguan. In the end, he couldn't help but say such a sentence to Zhao Kuangyin.
Zhao Kuangyin smiled, pointed to the left and said, "That's not a signal." Rectify the team, it's time for Li Shouzhen to taste the power of our white-clothed army! โ
