Chapter 24: Capture the thief and capture the king

In March 339 AD, the monarchs and ministers of the Jin Dynasty saw the internal fighting of the Cheng and Han dynasties, and from time to time the border guards of the Cheng and Han Dynasty rebelled and returned to Jianye, and then ordered the expedition to the west

General Yu Liang sent Li Song to lead his troops to attack Cheng Han.

In April, when Li Shou heard the news, he sent Li Hong, the assassin of Jingzhou, to lead the army to meet him, but after several years of infighting, Cheng Han was unstable and Li Hong was unstable

After being defeated and captured, Yu Liang escorted him to Jianye. Li Shou had to order Li Yi of the clan to be the general again, and concurrently served as the assassin of Jingzhou, leading the troops to meet the attack

Jin Army.

Unfortunately, Li Shou was sick at this time, and the ministers were afraid that the Jin army would be strong, and they were afraid that Li Shou would be seriously ill, and there would be chaos in the court again, so they immediately invited the ministers

Obey the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but Li Shou resolutely refused, and executed the head minister,

In December, Li Yi, a general of the Cheng Han Dynasty, defeated the Jin army and regained lost territory. The situation in Chenghan is slightly stable.

In February 340 AD, Sima Yan, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, convened his ministers to discuss the matter of destroying the Han Dynasty. The great general Huan of the garrison in the field

Wen said: "Wang Jun has just retreated, Chengdu is stable, it is not easy to enter, Li Shou is weak, you can sit and watch its changes." ”

All the ministers thought it was, and asked to return the captured Li Hong and others, and made peace with Cheng Han, and the emperor immediately allowed it to play.

Emperor Li Shou of the Cheng Han Dynasty was frail and sickly, and since the ministers were demoted to Jin, he felt powerless, so he entrusted all the government to Tai

At this time, Li Hong, the captured former assassin of Jingzhou, made a detour to Yecheng and returned to Chengdu. Li Shou was immediately called

Seeing Li Hong, he asked him what he had seen and heard in Jianye and Yecheng, and Li Hong praised Jianye and Yecheng for their prosperity and the majesty of the palace in order to cover up his defeat

Wei, the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Later Zhao State were powerful, and Li Shou was envious. So it was decided to overhaul the palace room and play with a wide range of utensils to maintain the dignity of the imperial system

, enact strict punishment laws, increase labor labor, and strengthen the national strength. Minister Cai Xing advised: "The first lord built the country with diligence and thrift, but His Majesty did

On the contrary, the people of Shu are now tired of servitude and complaining, and I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the country. ”

And Li Shou disagreed, and said: "Time has passed, what Qing Zhi said is not out of place, how can I imitate the technique of Jin and Zhao to strengthen the country."

If it is not good for the country, the secretary does not know what to do, so don't talk nonsense and retreat quickly. ”

Cai Xing had to retreat, and when the ministers saw this, they did not advise, and the national government of the Han Dynasty has been declining since then.

In 343 AD, Li Shou died of illness, and the crown prince Li Shi succeeded to the throne, continuing to follow his father's government, and the people were even more miserable.

In October 346 AD, Li Yi, a general of the Cheng Han Dynasty, saw that Li Qi was still doing his own thing, and advised the ministers to be punished, so that the government was in power

In the chaos, the people's grievances were boiling, so they sent Huan Wen to surrender to him in order to ask for reinforcements, and raised troops to surround Chengdu.

Seeing this, Emperor Li Shi of the Cheng Han Dynasty came to the head of the city in person and poured all the troops and horses of the city to meet the battle. When Li Yi's soldiers saw the emperor coming to the city gate, they didn't dare

Disobedient, no one charged, Li Yi had to single-handedly lead the siege of the city, but was shot under the city gate, and the soldiers saw it, and then collapsed

Scatter.

Li Shi was victorious, became more and more arrogant, did not care about the people's feelings, favored the ministers and eunuchs, and even slandered and advanced, punished harshly, and centrifuged both inside and outside

。

In November, Huan Wen knew that Li Yi had rebelled, and immediately asked the imperial court to destroy Cheng Han, which was approved.

In February 347, Huan Wen personally led a large army into Chengdu. Li Shiming's generals Li Fu, Li Quan, and Zan Jian led a large army to Heshui (today

Pengshan Shuangjiang Town) to block the enemy. The generals wanted to set up an ambush in the Muma Mountains to wait for the Jin army, but Zan Jian did not listen and led the army to Qianwei to block the Jin

Army.

Huan Wen found out about the situation of the Cheng Han army, and then summoned the generals and said: "Now the thief army wants to stop me from Qianwei, and our army can just avoid Qian

For, take the small road and go straight to the south of Chengdu, Chengdu will inevitably be unprepared, break through Chengdu, seize Li Shi, and the counties and counties of Shu will look to the wind

Descend, Shu can be determined. ”

All the generals said: "The general's clever plan is the Meridian Valley conspiracy of the world!" ”

In March of the same year, Huan Wen captured Pengmo, and ordered Sun Sheng and others to lead the troops to stay behind, and put the army's grain and grass here. Huan Wen

He personally led the army lightly into Chengdu. Li Fu and Li Quan knew that the Jin army went straight to Chengdu and immediately returned to the army, and Li Fu led the troops to attack Peng Mo.

Blocked by Sun Sheng, he had to retreat, Li Quan led the army to catch up with Huan Wen, but the soldiers and horses were exhausted, three battles and three defeats, and retreated to Chengdu. Zan Jiantong

The army did not meet the Jin army in Qianwei, and when he was thinking about it, he reported that Huan Wen had attacked the southern suburbs of Chengdu, and Zan Jian was shocked and had to hurry

Rescue back.

At this time, Li Shi, the emperor of the Cheng Han Dynasty, had to personally lead the defenders of the city to defend against Huan Wen at the Chengdu Bridge again. The two armies fought fiercely, and became a Han sergeant

Knowing that this battle is related to the danger of the country, all the bravery, the Huan Wen army was frustrated, the general Gong Hu was killed, and the Huan Wen mount was hit by several arrows, and the public

Will hurriedly protect Huan Wen, persuade him to retreat, the next day to fight again, Huan Wen immediately waved to the drummer, signaling the drum to retreat, but this battle

Fierce, the drummer mistakenly believed that the general intended to enter the army, and then sounded the marching drum, and the Jin soldiers heard the drum and thought that the reinforcements were coming, and they were demoralized

Da Zhen, shouting and killing shook the sky, Yuan Qiao, the general of the Huan Wen Department, responded improvised, and shouted: "Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming, catch Li Qi, seal."

Hou Wanhu. ”

The soldiers of the Jin army, scrambling, went straight to Li Shi, who was heavily guarded, Li Shi was terrified and fled back to the palace, and the Cheng Han army was defeated.

In the evening, the Jin army chased to the palace by victory, burned the palace gate, and Li Shi had to flee to Jiamengguan (now Guangyuan, Sichuan) overnight and sent an envoy to Xiang

Please lower the temperature. Before Zan Jian arrived in Chengdu, he heard that the city of Chengdu was broken, and its soldiers scattered by themselves, and the counties and counties of Shu were as expected by Huan Wen

The above tables have been surrendered.

Huan Wen immediately sent soldiers to escort Li Shi and more than ten members of the clan to Jianye, and set up officials in Shudi, and soon returned to the court.

Since then, Cheng Han perished, from Li Xiong to the surrender of Li Shi, Cheng Han enjoyed the country for 43 years.

At this time, the land of the Central Plains still belongs to Zhao Shihu's Zhao State, if you know that after Huan Wen destroyed the Han Dynasty, whether he would enter the army after Zhao and Hou

After Zhao usurped the throne by Shihu, what is the national strength, and look at the next chapter.
