Volume 16 Han Ji VIII (3)
So he worshiped Yuan Ying as too often. After more than ten days, the emperor made the prime minister Tao Qing, the lieutenant Jia, and the court lieutenant Zhang Ou, impeached Chao for not calling the lord the letter of virtue, and was going to alienate the ministers and the people, and to give the city to the state of Wu. Parents and wives have the same birth, no one is young, and they all abandon the market. The emperor said, "Yes." ”
Chao Cuo didn't know, Renzi, the emperor summoned the lieutenant Chao Cuo. tricked him into getting into the car and carrying him in the city. Chao was wearing court clothes and was beheaded in Dongshi.
The emperor sent Yuan Ying and Liu Tong, a disciple of King Wu, to envoy Wu to the state of Wu. The servant shot Deng Gong as a captain, and said that the military would see the emperor.
The emperor asked: "When you came back from the army and heard that Chao Cuo was dead, would they be willing to quit the army?" ”
Deng Gong said: "Wu has been preparing to rebel for more than ten years, and he is angry and cuts the land, in the name of punishing Chao Wrong, his original intention is not to be wrong. And the ministers are afraid that from now on, the ministers will not dare to speak again. ”
The emperor said, "Why? ”
Deng Gong said: "Chao is wrong and the princes are strong and uncontrollable, so please cut them down to respect the Beijing master, which is the benefit of eternity." As soon as the plan was implemented, it was slaughtered. The mouth of the loyal ministers of Neidu, and the revenge of the princes outside. Ministers steal for His Majesty not to take. ”
So the emperor sighed and said, "Sir is right. I also kind of regret it. ”
Yuan Ying and Liu Tong went to Wu, and Wu Chu's soldiers had attacked the military wall of Liang. Because Zong Zheng is a relative, he has a preconceived view. The edict ordered King Wu to bow and receive the edict. When King Wu heard that Yuan Ying was coming, he knew that he was going to come as a lobbyist, so he replied with a smile: "Now that I am the emperor of the East, who else do I want to worship?" "I don't want to see Yuan Ying. and left him in the army, wanting to kidnap him as a general. Yuan Yingde escaped and returned,
Taiwei Zhou Yafu said to the emperor: "The Chu soldiers are fierce, and it is difficult to compete. It's better to give up saving Liang and cut off his esophagus, and then he can control the enemy. ”
The emperor agreed with him.
So Zhou Yafu took the six-by-six pass, and he was going to meet Xingyang. When he arrived at the overlord, Zhao Shi stopped Zhou Yafu and said: "King Wu has always been rich and noble, and he has been a dead soldier for a long time, and he knows that the general will be able to do it, and he will definitely place assassins in the dangerous and narrow place." Moreover, the military wants to be confidential. Why don't the general go to the right from here, go to Lantian, go out of Wuguan, and arrive at Luoyang, but it's only a matter of one or two days. Then he went straight into the arsenal and beat the drums, and when the princes heard about it, they would have thought that the general had fallen from the sky. ”
The captain listened to his strategy and went to Luoyang. Daxi said: "The Seven Kingdoms are opposed, I have passed here, and I didn't expect to be able to arrive safely." That's it. Now that I occupy Xingyang, there is no need to worry about the east of Xingyang. "Sent military officials to search between the corpses, and sure enough, they found Wu Chu's ambush. So he asked Zhao Shi to be the protector, and Taiwei led the troops to the northeast to Changyi.
Wu's attack on Liang was very urgent. Liang sent envoys to ask for help from Tiaohou many times, but Tiaohou did not allow it. He also sent an envoy to the emperor to complain to the marquis. The emperor sent an envoy to tell the Marquis to send troops to rescue Liang. The Father does not obey the edict. The wall does not come out. And the Gong Gaohou and others will ride out of the Huaisi estuary and cut off the Wu Chu grain road.
Liang envoy Han Anguo, the middle doctor, and Zhang Yu, the younger brother of Chu Prime Minister Zhang Shang, were generals. The Wu soldiers wanted to go west, but the city of Liang was tightly guarded, and they did not dare to go west, so they went to the Tiaohou army. Rendezvous in Haeup. If you want to fight, you can't get out. Wu Jun's food was desperate and hungry, and he challenged many times, but the Marquis should not fight.
The Marquis army was in the middle of the night terrors, and the internal phase attacked. Disturbed to the tent, Yafjian was bedridden. After a long time, it was calmed down again. The Wu army ran to the southeast corner of the army wall, and Yafu made the army guard in the northwest, and soon the elite soldiers of the Wu army really ran to the northwest. No entry. Wu Chu's soldiers died of hunger and rebelled, so they led their troops away.
In February, Yafu sent elite troops in pursuit and broke the rebels. Liu Biao, the king of Wu, abandoned his army and fled with thousands of strong men at night. Liu Wu, the king of Chu, committed suicide. When King Wu first attacked, Wu Chen Tian Lubo was a general, and Tian Lubo said: "The soldiers are hoarding and there is no other strange way in the west, and it is difficult to make meritorious contributions." The minister is willing to get 50,000 people, don't follow the Jianghuai, collect Huainan, Changsha, enter Wuguan, and join the king. This is also a strange way. ”
The prince of Wu admonished: "The king is in the name of rebellion, and it is difficult for this soldier to pretend to be others. What should I do if others turn against the king again? It's just a loss of one's own strength. ”
King Wu did not agree to Tian Lubo.
Major General Wu Huan said to King Wu: "Wu has many infantry. Infantry at risk. Hando rode the car, and the car rode on the flat ground. I hope that the city that the king has passed through will not be in a hurry to take it, and go west as soon as possible, occupy the Luoyang arsenal, eat the millet of Aocang, and block the danger of mountains and rivers to order the princes, although they have not entered the customs, the world will be basically decided. ”
King Wu asked the veterans, and the veterans all said: "This man is young, so it's okay for him to charge, how do you know the safety plan?" ”
So King Wu didn't need to plan with General Huan. Bring the GIs together and be the generals yourself. The soldiers have not yet crossed the Huai River, and all the guests have to serve as generals and captains, and only Zhou Qiu is not reused.
Zhou Qiu is a native of Xiapi. Desperate Wu country, good wine is not good. King Wu despised him as a person, so he didn't reuse him. Zhou Qiu said to the king of Wu: "The minister has nothing to do, and he must not wait for the crime, and the minister does not dare to ask for a general, but he is willing to get a Han charm, and I will have to repay the king." ”
The king of Wu gave him a Han dynasty verse symbol.
Zhou Qiu had a festival and galloped into Xiapi City overnight. At that time, when the city heard that King Wu had rebelled, they hurriedly completed the city guard, and Zhouqiu went to the house, summoned the guard order to enter, and made the servants behead the order. Then he summoned Kundi and the officials who had been friends with him in the past and told him: "The counter-army of Wu is coming, and the slaughter of Xia Pi is not enough to eat, if you surrender first today, the family can be preserved." At the same time, those who are able can be crowned marquis. When the people went out, they ran to tell each other, so they got down. Zhouqiu got 30,000 people in one night. The envoy also reported to the king of Wu, and then sent his troops to the north of the city. By the time they arrived in Yangcheng, there were already more than 100,000 soldiers, and the army of the lieutenant of Breaking Yangcheng was broken. Hearing that King Wu was defeated and left, no one could succeed with him, that is, he led his troops back to Xiapi. Before he arrived, he died of gangrene.
