At the beginning, Liu Xiu only saw the horror of the civil official group, but he didn't expect that when the imperial power was in the most danger, the scholar civil official group was the lifesaver of the imperial power! The entire history of the Western Han Dynasty can prove this. The attempt of www.biquge.info the Lu clan to usurp power was settled by civil officials Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others; When Liu Xun was the emperor, he was the driving force behind the civil official Wei Zuo, killing Huo's relatives and regaining imperial power!

Liu Xiu's mistake was to kick the scholar and civil official group away and lose the qualification to escort the imperial power. Just like that, they could only watch the Deng family's relatives support the baby emperor, but they were helpless...

Civil officials are within the system, but far away from political power, which is one of the sources of political tragedy in the early Eastern Han Dynasty!

On the 4th, Liu Hu issued an edict: transfer the rented rice of the 5 counties of Yangzhou to help Jiyin, Dong, Chenliu, Liang, Chen, Xiapi, Shanyang and other counties. On the 13th, he ordered the servant and the Shaofu to reduce the Yellow Gate to advocate to make up for the Yu Linshi. The stables that are not the emperor's horses are all eaten in half. All works that are not for the purpose of the Jongmyo cemetery shall be stopped. On the 17th, criminals who were sentenced to death were allowed to pay money to atone for their crimes.

On the 21st, Taifu Zhang Yu was appointed as a lieutenant, and Taichang Zhou Zhang was promoted to Sikong.

In October, the Japanese king was promoted and sent 160 envoys to sacrifice their lives.

Since the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Taifu Deng Yu took the initiative to be a good child, and later his fellow ancestor Deng Biao also became a Taifu and was also a good child. The Taifu Zhang Yu in front of him was also very well-behaved. But there is one exception: the commonplace!

If Yuan An and Ren Kui were the spokespersons of the Eastern Han Dynasty civil officials, then Zhou Zhang will be the third successor! When his cousin Dou Xian was very arrogant, Zhou Zhang followed Taishou to work. Taishou said that he was going to visit Dou Xian, but Zhou Zhang stopped him and shouted, "Don't go, Dou can't last many years" Under Zhou Zhang's obstruction, Taishou didn't go to see Dou Xian. Because of this, Zhou Zhang saved this Taishou's life...

When Dou Xian was so good, Zhou Zhang was not well-behaved. Now that he has become one of the three princes, he is even more unwell-behaved. In order to show his courage, Zhou Zhang secretly gathered a group of civil officials and prepared to single out Deng's relatives! If this is successful, the political structure of the Eastern Han Dynasty will undergo fundamental changes!

In the Han Dynasty where Empress Dowager Deng covered the sky with one hand, everyone said that Empress Dowager Deng was good, but Zhou Zhang said that Empress Dowager Deng was a big traitor! Because Zhou Zhang discovered: When Empress Dowager Deng supported Liu Long to ascend the throne, she once said that it was because Liu Zhao's eldest son Liu Sheng suffered from a chronic illness and could not be the emperor...

But in fact, that's not the case at all! Liu Sheng, the king of the plains, is very good! How can there be any incurable disease that Empress Dowager Deng said? And after Liu Long's death, Empress Dowager Deng did not support Liu Sheng, but instead pushed Liu Hu to the emperor's throne, and continued to listen to politics in the court... It's a conspiracy!

Deng Sui has a conspiracy, and I have a counter-conspiracy in Zhou Zhang! However, when Zhou Zhang was about to act, he found that this was not a heads-up at all. If you really do it, it's a 1:2 fight. Because behind the power of Empress Dowager Deng's relatives, there is an even more evil sect: the eunuchs who have been lurking in the palace for a long time! There are two heads today: Da Changqiu Zheng Zhong and Zhongchang Cai Lun!

It has been years since the scholars made their mark on the political stage. In the face of these two powerful sects, will Zhou Zhang be their opponent? Seriously, Zhou Zhang wasn't much sure. But even so, Zhou Zhang has no way out! Only by moving forward can we fight a bloody way for the scholar and civil official clique! If you are obedient to this, you will always be a character who sits in the audience and watches the play and applauds others. To say goodbye to this role, you have to rise up and have no choice!

Who says small people can't do big things? As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Zhang's blood couldn't stop boiling! Maybe Zhou Zhang will think that he is doing things from a moral standpoint, and it is impossible for God to be blind and not let himself succeed.

But it's a pity: although God has long eyes, he doesn't keep his eyes open twenty-four hours a day, and occasionally he dozes off. Zhou Zhang actually challenged the Empress Dowager Deng when God was dozing off!

Zhou Zhang's plan of action was as follows: first, close the palace gate and kill Deng Qiu's brothers, Zheng Zhong, Cai Lun and others; secondly, threatened Shangshu to issue an edict, depose Empress Dowager Deng, and imprison her in Nangong; In the end, the puppet emperor Liu Hu was ousted and Liu Sheng was supported to ascend the throne...

Puppets are also people, if the faction of Emperor Liu Hu of the Han Dynasty is included, Zhou Zhang will not be one to two, but one to three... To win this unprecedented coup d'état to seize power, it is really hanging!

However, while we were all clutching our hearts and waiting to see the big show, the conspiracy was revealed! How did the message get through? Nobody knows. On November 19, Zhou Zhang committed suicide. It's like a farce, and it ends in such a vain ending...

It was destined to be an eventful one. For Empress Dowager Deng, Zhou Zhang's attempt to rebel was not the end of her life's troubles, but the beginning of the prelude!

On the 20th, Liu Hu issued an edict to the Lieutenant of Sili, Ji, and Erzhou Assassins, ordering them to lead officials to tell the displaced people and let them return to their counties. Those who really don't want to return can't be strong.

On December 18, Yingchuan Taishou Zhang Min was promoted to Sikong.

This month, Deng Qiu and Ren Shang led the five battalions of the Northern Army, a strong force of the Han Dynasty, to set out, gathered the soldiers of the counties, and sent a total of 50,000 people to Hanyang County to prepare to quell the Qiang rebellion.

This year, 18 counties were flooded, 41 counties were flooded, and 28 counties were windy, rain and hail.

This year, Yan Liyang, the lord of Xianbei, wants to come to Luoyang to pay tribute. Empress Dowager Deng gave Wang Yinshou, red cars, and drivers, and asked Yan Liyang to go to Ning County, Shanggu County, where Captain Wuhuan is located, without going to Luoyang. Empress Dowager Deng also allowed the mutual market to build two quality museums in the north and south. The 120 Xianbei tribes each sent hostages into the Han Dynasty.

In January of the 2nd year of Yongchu (108), Deng Qiu arrived in Zhiji County, Hanyang County, where he wanted to complete the assembly of the army and prepare for action. However, plans have not kept up with the changes. Thousands of people from the Zhongqiang tribe attacked the Han army with lightning speed, greatly taught Deng Qiu a lesson, and killed more than 1,000 people.

Deng Qiu was nervous. This was the first battle in his life, and he brought the elite of the Northern Army. But before he could gain a foothold, everything was disrupted... Just when Deng Xiao was frightened, Empress Dowager Deng sent him a fierce man: Liang Qing, who had just been welcomed back from the Western Regions!

Liang Qing had just entered Dunhuang County when he received an order to rush to the front line to participate in the battle. Liang Qing came in time, he fought with a Qiang army of more than 10,000 people in Zhangye County, and won a big victory, two or three out of ten escaped, and the rest were all cut down by Liang Qing.

Then, Liang Qing came to Wuwei County to govern Guzang County. Here, more than 300 Qiang chieftains came to surrender to him. Liang Qing was very kind and sent them all back. Say that as long as you live your life well, you will be safe... The Qiang people are safe, but Deng Qiu is very depressed!

In January, Empress Dowager Deng issued an edict to help the poor in Henan, Xiapi, Donglai, Hanoi and other counties. In the imperial history, Cheng Fan Zhun Shangshu suggested immigration policy. It is said that the relief is not enough, and the victims should be relocated to Jing and Yangshu counties. Empress Dowager Deng immediately approved. He also issued an edict to lend public land to the poor, and promoted Fan Zhun and Yilang Lu Cang to Guanglu doctors. On February 29, Fan Zhun was sent to Jizhou and Lucang to Yanzhou to help the people.

On April 19, a fire broke out in the city of Hanyang, killing 3,570 people. In May, there was a severe drought. On the 1st, Empress Dowager Deng came to Luoyang Temple and ordered that the prisoners in Ruolu Prison be brought in and interrogated by herself. One of them was charged with homicide, but in fact he was beaten into a confession. Empress Dowager Deng found out the truth, ordered her release on the spot, and sent Luoyang to prison to confess her guilt. Then he was ready to return to the palace, and on the way, he rained down. The ministers shouted long live. The edict was given to Henan Yin, Tingwei, Qing and the following officials.

In June, Luoyang and 40 counties in Beijing were flooded, windy, and hail. In July, Taibai entered Beidou. Emperor Liu Hu of the Han Dynasty issued an edict begging for bluntness.

On the 10th day of the leap month, Liu Changbao, the king of Guangchuan, died. and the kingdom was destroyed because he had no children.

On August 20, Shu County was subordinate to Qiang Nashi.

On October 28, relief was given to the poor people in Jiyin, Shanyang and Xuansu counties.

In October, Deng Qiu's troops were assembled, and the Yunnan Lingqiang people were also in place. The two sides make an appointment about the time and place, and get ready to fight! The location is Pyeongxiang County, Hanyang County, and tens of thousands of people are sent from each side.

Just when Deng Qiu was about to take revenge, he made a mistake! There is no problem with the army, there is no problem with time and place, Deng Qiu's biggest mistake is to use the wrong person: Ren Shang! This is an evil man. This general, who has seen big scenes with Deng Xun and Dou Xian, has a great temper, but his military talent is not ordinarily poor!

This time, Deng Qiu handed over the elite to Ren Shang and Sima Jun, and whether he could win back his previous face was all up to him! But the result was: Ren Shang had a melee with the Qiang people, rushed up with tens of thousands of people, came back a few people, and killed more than 8,000 people!

After the great victory, the Qiang people became even more courageous. Their momentum is beyond Deng Qiu's imagination!

Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon, looking forward to going to the battlefield. This is what we are looking forward to. If time can be turned back, will Deng Qiu still choose to go to this unfortunate battlefield? But it's all here, I can't beat people, and I have no excuse to leave, what should I do? As soon as he thought of this, Deng Qiu's head was big!

There is another thing that makes Deng Qiu even more important: at this time, the front line cannot be saved, and the rear cannot be held. If it drags on any longer, there may be a big mess!

War is about the economy, and the concrete expression lies in the logistics on the battlefield. In those days, there were no planes, no trains, a large amount of war materials had to be transported to the front, and logistical personnel were needed, by no means less than the front line!

The war was lost at the front, and the people in the counties in Huangzhong in the rear were panicked, and prices rose sharply, reaching the level of '10,000 yuan per stone'. The people are starving to death, and logistical food cannot be sent to the front line!

At this time, an urgent telegram rescued Deng Qiu's predicament and made him see the dawn of hope in the darkness! The person who came to save Deng Qiu was called Pang Shen, who was originally a Zuo school order, but was later demoted to Ruolu's prison work for breaking the law.

When you come out to mix, the opportunity is important, and the nobles are even more indispensable. When Pang Shen first debuted, when he was working in the county, no one in the world knew his name. Later, the top boss Henan Taishou chatted with him and thought that he was a genius in the world, that is, he worshiped him as the left school commander. But soon, because of work, Pang Shen was accused of breaking the law and was sent to prison.

Heaven doesn't save everyone! Pang Shenren stayed in the cell, but he was very well-informed. He immediately asked his son Pang Jun to send a letter of his performance to Luoyang City and hand it over to the Empress Dowager Deng.

Pang Shen proposed a safe route for Deng Qiu's professional retreat as a non-professional: the northwest was in chaos, the military disasters and natural disasters were in a hurry, and the grain road was difficult to continue, rather than fighting with the Qiang people there, it was better to retreat first, summon Deng Qiu back to Beijing, and let Ren Shangtun guard Liangzhou. Stop leviing taxes and levy troops and give the peasants time to cultivate their fields. In a few years, when the vitality of the Han army is restored and the vitality of the Qiang people is greatly damaged, they can quickly attack and destroy the Qiang people!

Regardless of whether there are loopholes in this suggestion, but a discerning person will know that this is beneficial to Deng Qiu! Leaving the danger to Ren Shang and the safety to herself, Empress Dowager Deng seriously agreed with Pang Shen's opinion. At the same time, Fan Zhun returned from a tour to help the people, and also recommended Pang Shen in a book.

Empress Dowager Deng immediately ordered Pang Shen to be transferred out of prison and worshipped as a confessor. He was ordered to set off immediately to the front line to supervise the three armies. With Pang Shen's recital as a theoretical argument, on November 29, Empress Dowager Deng issued another edict ordering Deng Qiu to return to Beijing. Ren Shang garrisoned Hanyang County, and the armies were tempered.
