Liu Xuan debuted
In October, Yan You and Chen Mao defeated the Xiajiang soldiers. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Cheng Dan, Wang Chang, Zhang Wei and others could only lead thousands of remnants to flee into the city. Waged guerrilla warfare between Zhongshan and Longshan in Suixian County, Nanyang County, and recovered its vitality. After the power was restored, he defeated Jingzhou Mu in Shangtang Township.
According to the original plan, it was planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the Nanyang County magistrate to review the militia on the day of the beginning of autumn and kill the soldiers. It's a pity that the plan failed. But this plan made two people angry: Nanyang County Doctor Zhen Fu and Zhengliang Qiuci!
If it weren't for their intelligence work, they would have died long ago. So when the rebels came at them this time, they were like two big bad wolves, squatting in the night, flashing green eyes, quietly waiting for the appearance of their prey...
In November, the battle began in Xiaochang'anju, between Jianyang County and Wan County. To be precise: it was the Chung Ling army that was ambushed in Xiaochang'anju. Zhen Fu and Liang Qiuci defeated the Chung Ling army that entered the ambush circle, and almost all the troops were wiped out!
The result of this is not how awesome the new DPRK government army is, but a fog! The rebels were on someone else's territory, like a school of fish hitting a net, and cattle and sheep fell into a swamp, unable to distinguish the direction. So the government army chased the rebel army, like a wolf chasing a flock, across the flock... Look, how important the weather forecast is for war!
Liu Xiu was defeated, and Liu Xiu fled alone. Thinking about the battle of Pengcheng that year, Gaozu Liu Bang was chased and killed by Xiang Yu's subordinates all the way, he got into the carriage and let Xiahou Ying increase his horsepower to run. As he ran, he suddenly met his children on the road, and he pulled into the carriage. Seeing that the pursuers were approaching, Liu Bang kicked the two children out of the carriage with one kick...
Liu Xiu is not as lacking in virtue as his ancestors. He was running on the road on horseback, and when he saw his sister Liu Boji, he pulled her on the horse and continued to run. Running and running, I met my second sister Liu Yuan again, and I also took my three daughters...
Liu Xiu said, "Sister, come up quickly." Let's run away together," but Liu Yuan refused. It's not that she doesn't want to escape, it's obvious: Liu Xiu is riding a horse, not a car. Can a horse run with three adults and three children? So Liu Yuan told Liu Xiu, "You hurry up and run away with your third sister, if you can escape, one counts as one" Liu Xiu had to take his sister and go wildly...
Liu Xiu fled in a hurry, and the government cavalry also chased after him. Soon they caught up with Liu Yuan and her three daughters. In this battle, Liu Xiu lost her second sister Liu Yuan and three nieces, as well as her second brother Liu Zhong!
The dead rest in peace, and the living continue to try! Liu Xuan regrouped the scattered rebel army and retreated to Jianyang to recuperate and prepare for another battle. But the opponent couldn't wait, they left all their baggage in Lanxiang in Biyang County, and then led 100,000 elite soldiers, like hungry wolves, to pounce towards Jianyang County!
It was an absolutely devastating blow! 100,000 New Korean government troops quickly crossed the Huangchun River and approached the shore of the river. At the same time, Zhen Fu also ordered: all the bridges on the Huangchun River will be destroyed, cutting off the retreat of the government army itself! 230 years ago, a man named Xiang Yu invented this tactic, and his scientific name is - Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat!
Theoretically, the rebels were barefoot and did not fear those fierce men in shoes. But now it seems that these shoes are not only fierce, but also not afraid of death. No one is afraid of death, so it depends on who can survive to the end... The first ones who can't hold it are not those government troops wearing shoes, but the barefoot Pinglin and Xinshi soldiers!
On the issue of whether it was fair for them to divide the meat before, they already had a pimple with the Chungling Army. Now seeing Zhen Fu and Liang Qiuci coming with such momentum, they decided that Liu Jiu couldn't hold it anymore, and it was time for them to make some plans for themselves...
At this time, Liu Xuan had already sniffed out the pessimism that permeated the army, and he was in a hurry. It's useless to rush, you have to find a way! At this moment, a piece of good news was like a spring breeze and rain, bringing hope to Liu Xuan!
This brought hope to Liu Xuan was the 5,000 Xiajiang soldiers led by Wang Chang, who were gathering in Yiqiu, more than 40 kilometers southeast of Jianyang County. Liu Xuan immediately decided to meet Wang Chang. He took two people and went to Wang Chang's place to lobby: Liu Xiu and Li Tong.
When Liu Xuan saw Wang Chang, he showed his opinion straight to the point: "Now the enemy is strong and I am weak, and we must fight together." If everyone still only cares about the interests of each family and fights their own guerrillas, it will be difficult to achieve great things in the end" Wang Changruo has an enlightened and authentic saying: "Wang Mang usurped the Han, people and gods are indignant, and now the Liu family is revived, you are Allah!" I am willing to help you, Zuo Cheng is a great success" Liu Xuan smiled and said, "Since everyone goes to grab things together, they must be shared by everyone when they are snatched back, and I will never share them exclusively."
After Liu Xuan and Wang Chang made an appointment with each other, they went back to Jianyang with Liu Xiu and Li Tong, and Wang Chang immediately called a meeting of his brothers. Unexpectedly, Cheng Dan and Zhang Wei had great opinions on this: "Why can't we stand on our own?" But with Liu Xuan's words, it will be merged into his banner? It's a breath that's hard to swallow."
Wang Chang understands the feelings of his brothers, but he analyzes it this way: "If you want to achieve great causes, you must obey the will of heaven and the will of the people." Wang Mang usurped the Han, the world hung upside down, and the people's thoughts were not for a day. If we from the grassroots, to respond to the uprising and rebellion in the world, we will definitely not have as much influence as Liu's troops. Even if we are brave and win this world, we will lose it again. Just like that Qin Shi Huang and Xiang Yu. And Liu Xuan is a descendant of the Han family, and I think both of them are heroes, if we can raise their banner, the probability of a successful rebellion will be far greater than the chance of our own rebellion."
After Wang Chang's flickering, Xia Jiangbing finally decided: defect to Liu Xuan!
With the arrival of the Xiajiang soldiers, the Xinshi and Pinglin soldiers also decided not to run away and stay and continue to fight! Liu Xuan was overjoyed, and after signing an alliance with the army, he decided to sacrifice the army for three days! Three days later, Liu Xuan divided the soldiers into six divisions and set off!
Judging from the deployment of the government army, fighting a battle against the odds is to strive for a decisive battle. And in the frontal battle, the rebel army is obviously not an opponent of the government army. Therefore, the top priority is to break the position of the government army. And to crack the opponent's key technique, since ancient times, there is a trick that is quite effective, and it is often unpleasant: sneak attack!
Where to sneak attack, Liu Jiu has already thought about it. It is where the government army hoards its baggage - Blue Township! As long as the baggage of the government army is dealt with, they will have no rice in the pot, and they will inevitably panic. Then attack head-on and defeat the government army!
On December 29th, Liu Xuan led his troops to die down and quietly marched to Lanxiang. Launch a surprise attack on the government forces and rob all the baggage!
In January 23, Liu Xuan decided: Kill to the water and fight with Zhen Fu and Liang Qiuci! Facts have proved that the barefoot are really not afraid of wearing shoes, and the ruthless are afraid of death. Under Liu Xuan's rapid offensive, Zhen Fu, Liang Qiuci and more than 20,000 government troops were killed...
The county governor and the county lieutenant were all killed, and Nanyang County was in danger! The rebel army has rapidly swelled to more than 100,000 troops. When the news came, Yan You and Chen Mao, who were nearby, hurriedly led their troops to prepare to defend Wancheng. Although they suffered a big defeat in Shuyang County, Yan You and Chen Mao finally entered Zhiwan County, Nanyang County in time. Subsequently, Liu Xuan led his troops to surround Wancheng!
March 1 (March for Wang Mang's new dynasty.) But from this moment on, the emperor was proclaimed, and the Han Dynasty was revived, and the Han Zhengshuo calendar was used for February) The rebel army decided to elect the supreme leader in order to achieve the rigor and uniformity of the organization.
Including Liu Xuan, many people think: The leader of the coalition should let Liu Xuan be the leader! Of course, the Chung Ling army thinks so, and Wang Chang, the leader of the Xiajiang soldiers, also thinks so, but some people strongly oppose it!
The Xinshi soldiers and Pinglin soldiers agreed that Liu Xuan was too strong, if he was elected as the leader, once the coalition forces became bigger, they would not be able to control them, and in the end the right to speak might be sidelined, and maybe their fate would ********... So, for the sake of the future, they must support a reliable and controllable person!
But this alliance leader cannot be Wang Feng, the leader of the Xinshi soldiers, or Chen Mu, the leader of the Pinglin soldiers, but must be surnamed Liu!
This is Wang Chang's theory. The Western Han Dynasty was surnamed Liu, and the old store that had been open for 214 years had long been recognized by the people. As a result, Wang Mang smashed the signboard of Liu's big store without a single shot and replaced it with his own signboard. So the people didn't admit it. Therefore, only by holding the banner of the surname Liu who is recognized by the people to oppose Wang Mang will there be popularity, strength and effect!
So who to choose? Wang Feng and Chen Mu thought about it, and thought of one person - Liu Xuan!
Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan, and Liu Xiu had the same great-grandfather, Liu Mai, Marquis of Chungling (the grandson of Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty and the son of Liu Fa, King of Changsha), so they were their brothers. In his early years, Liu Xuan was killed by the enemy because of his younger brother Liu Xian, so he made a guest to take revenge. As a result, before the revenge was avenged, the guests broke the law and had an accident, so Liu Xuan had no choice but to flee, join the Pinglin soldiers, and do the revolution.
Liu Xuan is also famous among the Pinglin soldiers, and is known as the first general. But Chen Mu and Wang Feng did not fancy Liu Xuan's title, but his character. If Liu Xuan is a tiger, then Liu Xuan is a sick cat. Liu Xuanjun is strict in discipline and has sharp means, Liu Xuan's power is thin, cowardly and incompetent, and he can just play in the palm of his hand...
Of course, this matter cannot be decided by Wang Feng and Chen Mu alone. But if it were to be held for an election, they would obviously not have an advantage. Wang Chang has become a hardcore follower of Liu Xuan, and Liu Xuan's name is loud again, if he wants to fight, no one can beat him. Therefore, to push Liu Xuan to the position of emperor, you can only outwit, not rely on brute force!
How? Wang Feng and Chen Mu thought so: strike first, send someone to spread the news that Liu Xuan is going to be the emperor, create a fait accompli, and then put pressure on Liu Xuan...
If nothing goes wrong, it will lead to a huge internal strife within the coalition forces, and finally destroy the outcome. But a miracle happened: instead of an earthquake, the rebel army became more united and moved forward in unison!
All these situations were created by Liu Xuan's concessions.
Liu Xuan's nose is very sensitive, and he has long smelled the gunpowder of Xinshi and Pinglin soldiers. Since joining forces, these two teams have come not for him, but for the division of power. If Liu Xiu hadn't suggested that the things looted by the Chungling Army be distributed to them, they might have fought a long time ago. Later, if Wang Chang hadn't joined, these people would have slipped away a long time ago... Now, these people look at a big piece of cake, and if they don't cut a big piece of cake, they won't be reconciled. The revolution has not yet succeeded, and it would be unwise to engage in infighting. The so-called outside must be at ease, and Liu Xuan must make concessions to the Xinshi soldiers and the Pinglin soldiers.
Of course, Liu Xuan made conditional concessions. Liu Xuan said to Xinshi and Pinglin Bing, "It's okay to support Liu Xuan, but it's best not to use the title of emperor." Because the rebel army in the world is not only ours, but also the Red Eyebrow Army entrenched in Qingzhou and Xuzhou. If Fan Chong hears that we have established an emperor, with his hundreds of thousands of troops, he will definitely not be willing to live under our army, and he will definitely introduce a Liu emperor. In this way, before Wang Mang was eliminated, the rebel army would fight first, and only Wang Mang would benefit in the end. Also, we dared to call ourselves the emperor before we even captured Nanyang County Zhiwan County, which is easy to become the target of the world's attacks. So my opinion is: slow to be the emperor, first to be the king. If the Red Eyebrow Army grows bigger in the future, we can also go to them; If we are strong, it is not too late to destroy Wang Mang first, then subdue Fan Chong, and then elect the emperor."
Liu Xuan's lofty remarks sound beautiful, but they are not practical at all! Because Wang Feng and Chen Mu didn't listen to him at all. With the help of Zhang Wei's strength, they still decided to push Liu Xuan as the emperor, and not to postpone, but to ascend the throne immediately! Liu Xuan thought that everything was still under his control, but in fact, everything was getting farther and farther away from his control!
On February 1 of the first year of the change (March 1 of the 4th year of Emperor Wang Mangdi), Liu Xuan held an enthronement ceremony on the shore of the river. Amnesty to change the yuan. Liu Liang and Liu Xiu's uncle Liu Liang are the three elders of the country, Wang Kuang is the prince of Dingguo, Wang Feng is the prince of Chengguo, Zhu Kun is the great Sima, Liu Jiu is the great Situ, Chen Mu is the great Sikong, Liu Xiu is the general of Taichang Biao, and Wang Chang is the general of Tingwei... A scribbled stage was hastily erected...
