Yizhou is divided into the north and south, Qianwei, Ba County and its north are the north, and the south of the three counties of Zhuti, Qiqi and Yuewang is the south. Pen? Interesting?

But this does not mean that Liu Yan has given up that fertile soil.

The southern part of Yizhou is rich in ivory, silver and other precious luxuries, but it is precisely because of this that the southern part of Yizhou became an area exploited by the nobles of the Han Dynasty; The locals did not make a fortune because of these luxuries, but because of these things, the locals became extremely poor.

Not only because of the exploitation of the southern Yizhou by the Yizhou clan and the officials in the court, in order to prevent them from resisting, the people of the Central Plains did not teach them basic living methods such as farming and weaving, but used these things to buy gold and ivory in their hands "seriously".

The people in the southern part of Yizhou are miserable, and unrest has broken out repeatedly. It was not until Liu Bei's period that Liu Bei implemented a policy of benevolence and virtue that the rebellion in the south was reduced; But not long after Liu Bei's death, the southern tribes rebelled, and it was not until Zhuge Liang personally conquered Nanzhong that everything was eased.

The people of Nanzhong are still grateful to Zhuge Liang Rende, and it was he who brought all the cultivation, silk weaving and other techniques in Shuzhong to Nanzhong, so that they could gradually become rich. Zhuge Liang also knew that Shu Han only had a small Yizhou, and if he didn't stabilize the rear and make it rich, Shu Han would not improve at all.

In order to govern Nanzhong, Zhuge Liang set up the governor of Yu, and a total of six people took on this position, namely Deng Fang, Li Hui, Zhang Yi, Ma Zhong, Zhang Biao, and Yan Yu. Because Zhang Yi acted fiercely and offended many Nanzhong tribes, there was also a rebellion, but after Ma Zhong, Nanzhong was slightly calmer.

Because Liu Zhang sent Li Hui into Nanzhong before to establish a good relationship with his tribe, Liu Zhang's southward journey this time was not troubled by the Nanzhong clan, but because of the oppression for many years, he now has a benevolent lord who is quite popular.

Yonghong, the head of the Yongjia family of the Jianning clan, after the Hou Yongya of Shifang, it is always known that the person who Gaozu Liu Bang hates the most is Yongya, but he still made him a marquis, Shifang is close to the Chengdu Plain, as for why Yonghong will go to Jianning, it is unknown.

Yonghong is capricious, I don't know if he inherited the character of his ancestors, but when facing Liu Zhang, Yonghong looked quite welcome.

On this day, Liu Zhang had just led the troops from Shu County to Qianwei, passed Zhuti, and came to Jianning; It was met that Yonghong led private soldiers to greet him. Liu Zhang did not have many subordinates, with nearly 100 chariots, all of which were Yizhou's property over the years, and there were countless gold, silver, jewelry, and BMW horses. When Liu Zhang saw Yonghong coming, he didn't feel heartache at all, and gave away ten cars of jewelry to Yonghong.

Yonghong was grateful, and actually said a shameless sentence: "My ancestor was loyal to Emperor Gaozu in the last life, and now Liu Yizhou has taken refuge in the south, and he should also be loyal to my ancestor in the next generation, and go to the soup and fire, and he will not give up!" ”

Who in the world doesn't know that Yongya betrayed Liu Bang several times? Yonghong, who is really bad, can say this kind of thing, and the people under Liu Zhang's command have expressed their disdain; Although Liu Zhang knew the allusions, he also knew the truth that the strong dragon did not suppress the head snake, and after praising Yonghong, he settled down in Jianning.

After settling down, Yonghong asked Ying to contact Haoqiang in Yunnan, Yongchang, and other places to unite with Liu Zhang, and establish Liu Zhang as the master. Liu Zhang thought that he had won the hearts of the people in Nanzhong, so he laughed and accepted it.

After Liu Zhang successfully managed Nanzhong, because of Yonghong's slander, he established himself as the king of Jianning, built his own feudal country, and took his eldest son Liu Xun as the crown prince, and his subordinates and Haoqiang were rewarded respectively, while Yonghong was named the general of the chariot and cavalry by Liu Zhang because of his meritorious service to the founding of the country. Yonghong knew that Liu Zhang's head was simple, so he took this opportunity to almost divide Liu Zhang's power equally.

But Liu Zhang is simple-minded, but there are people with outstanding brains in his military camp, and the strategist Li Hui is one of them. This person is a native of Jianning County, and he is naturally quite familiar with Nanzhong Haoqiang, after all, this Yonghong is capricious after Yongya, not to mention that he is very ambitious, how can he support a weak and ignorant Liu Zhang?

According to what Li Hui thought in his heart, this person must want to win people's hearts with Liu Zhang's name first, and then kill Liu Zhang and establish himself as the king!

After all, Yizhou is the territory of the Han family, and even if the southern part of Yizhou has been neglected for a long time, they still think that the Han is the king. Yonghong has always been ambitious, but because he has no outstanding power compared to other powerful people, he plans to use the name of Liu Zhang's Han clan to exploit the power of these people first, and then replace them!

So Li Hui told Liu Zhang his thoughts, and Liu Zhang was quite sensitive to these things after experiencing Liu Bei's incident; After Li Hui finished reporting his thoughts, Liu Zhang felt that what he said was reasonable, and coupled with the name of Yongya, Liu Zhang couldn't believe Yonghong.

Liu Zhang originally planned to use Li Hui's strategy to assassinate Yonghong, but Yonghong seemed to feel Liu Zhang's malice towards him, thinking that although he could kill Liu Zhang, he would definitely not be able to save his life, so he fled overnight and went to Jiaozhou to defect to Shixie.

As soon as Yonghong left, Liu Zhang's power was dominant, and with the support of the strong scholars, Liu Zhang's troops went out of Yongchang, attacked Canglan, Burma and other places, and won many cities. The kings of Burma and other places thought that they were the kings of the Han Dynasty, and they surrendered one after another, paying tribute every year; And these tributes naturally went into Liu Zhang's pocket.

After listening to Haoqiang's slander, he founded a country in the south of Yizhou, established himself as the emperor, placed hundreds of officials, and the country name was still Han, which was used to subjugate the surrounding countries.

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard that Liu Zhang was called emperor, and planned to go south to crusade, but the rebellion of Ma Teng in the north had not yet ended, and even if he wanted to crusade against Nanzhong, he had to wait until Ma Teng was cleaned up, so he didn't want to do it.

The words are divided into two ends, but it is said that Yonghong escaped from the traitor, went south from Qiqi County to Jiaozhou, and went to Jiaozhi County to visit Shixie. At this time, Shixie had already taken most of the territories such as Vietnam and Laos, and became the emperor of the southern soil. But he only led the history of Jiaozhou Thorn, which was one step older than his original Jiaozhi Taishou, and he seemed to have no ambition at all.

Shi Xie has been in Jiaozhou for 40 years, known as a benevolent name, and has no dispute with the Central Plains, until Sun Quan sent Bu Qi to persuade him to surrender, he took refuge in Sun Quan; And the original Yonghong rebellion was the credit of Shixie, that is to say, Shixie originally had an old relationship with Yonghong, so Yonghong chose to come to Shixie.

Shi Xie led Jiaozhi Taishou, and he also had three brothers, are they Shi Yi and Shi? and Shiwu, respectively, led Hepu Taishou, Jiuzhen Taishou (in Vietnam) and Nanhai Taishou, all in Jiaozhou. The three brothers jointly governed Jiaozhou, making the Shi family the largest family in Jiaozhou.

And this time, although Shi Xie was surprised, he still treated him with courtesy; Yonghong and Shixie had an old relationship, and the two talked about some old things, and then they began to talk about business.

Yonghong said: "Brother has not been long since he led the history of Jiaozhou, but Ren Jiaozhi is too punctual for a long time, can he be self-reliant?" ”

This is a remote area, and the two have a close relationship, so Shi Xie doesn't mind: "Why did the virtuous brother say this?" For the brother to accept Hann, the leader of the toe is too guarded, although it is not enough to glorify the ancestors, but the food and clothing are worry-free, and the heart is clear! If you want to be self-reliant, you are afraid that your brother is immoral and incompetent, and it is difficult to control! ”

Yonghong smiled and said: "Brother has been in Jiaozhou for many years, and benevolence is scattered everywhere, which is well known to the people of this state!" That Liu Zhang was defeated by Liu Bei, entered Nanzhong and established himself as king, and the Han court could not help him; Brother has the advantage of geographical advantage, but also the virtue of people, why can't he go further? ”

"This ......"

Suddenly, at this time, Shi Xie's son Shi Hui entered the house without warning and said, "Father, there is important news!" ”

Shi Xie frowned, and a trace of dissatisfaction appeared on his vicissitudes of life: "Presumptuous! Because the father is entertaining guests, why is the son rude to enter? ”

Shi Hui said excitedly: "My father asked me to wait to find out more about Liu Zhang, and now I have the exact news that Liu Zhang's conquest of Chen Li (the Han Dynasty's barbarian name for the southwest Burma region) was a great victory, and now he thinks that his merit is high and he has established himself as the emperor!" ”

"Liu Zhang is the emperor?"

Yonghong and Shi Xie, who heard the news, were dumbfounded, with their understanding of Liu Zhang, how could this person be the emperor? Could it be that when you fight and play a sense of superiority, you think that you have transgressed?

"This Liu Zhang doesn't know whether he is stupid or smart, but ...... Now that the Central Plains is chaotic, Liu Bei has Ma Teng in the north, and the miasma in the south is blocking the road, so he will not be conquered immediately; This Liu Zhang...... It won't be too difficult. ”

After Shihui reported the matter, he said excitedly: "Father, this Liu Zhang is adjacent to us, if you want to resist foreign enemies, it is better to form an alliance with him; But Liu Zhang is the emperor, and his father is only for a state, so it is inevitable that there will be an identity gap, so it is better to ......"

"Why don't you do it?" Shi Xie seemed to have known his intentions from his son's cryptic words.

"It's not as good as my father who is also the emperor, and Liu Zhang is each other's horns, relying on the southern miasma barrier, even if it is the Central Plains army, I can't help it!"

Shi Xie knew that Shi Hui wanted to say that he wanted to be the emperor, which coincided with Yonghong's meaning; However, what the two of them said was not unreasonable, and what they said was indeed a little moved. has been the soil emperor in Jiaozhou for almost 20 years, and Shixie will inevitably be greedy for this kind of day.

If you are the emperor...... It's not impossible. Didn't Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, also claim to be the emperor back then? Even Liu Bang couldn't help him, and finally asked him to go to the emperor in the name of the imperial court, only to be called the king of Nanyue.

Now if you want to be the king, it is better to go all out and directly become the emperor!

But Shi Xie didn't seem to have an idea in his heart, so he asked Shi Hui to send a secret letter, summoning his three brothers to Jiaozhi County, and asking the three brothers to discuss together.

After a few days, Shi Xie's three brothers came according to this, when Shi Xie and everyone talked about it, the three hit it off, and advised Shi Xie to be the emperor, and said that when the day is divided, Jiaozhou is a corner of peace, Shi Xie is kind to the local people, and now their four brothers are united, plus the support of the people of Jiaozhou, since Shi Xie does not conquer the world, follow Zhao Tuo to call the emperor in Yuedi, why not?

Since ancient times, Jiaozhou and its southern part have been the most troublesome places for the emperors of previous dynasties, if Shixie can dominate a state, even if the world is unified in the future, Shixie or his descendants will also have the capital to negotiate with the emperor of the Central Plains.

Since the three brothers had no opinions, coupled with the instigation of the guest Yonghong, Shi Xie had no reason to refuse. So he issued the "Letter of State", announcing to the world that he had established himself as the emperor, and the country name was "Yue", and united with Liu Zhang, acting as horns for each other, and jointly resisting foreign enemies.

Shi Xie named the three brothers as the king of Hepu, the king of the South China Sea and the king of Vietnam, and ordered him to follow Zhao Tuo's example, contact the people of Lingnan and Baiyue, and for a while, the people of Jiaozhou were extremely united, and praised Shi Xie's policy, and some people in Jingnan also moved here.

However, not everything went well, Shi Ri Nan (central Vietnam, the southernmost place of the Han Dynasty) was too shou Yu Guo (there is an allusion to the return of Shuangyan) loyal to the Han Dynasty, and when he heard that Shi Xie was called the emperor, he immediately severed relations with him. Because Shixie's father, Shi Ci, once served as the Taishou of Nisei, so Nisup had extraordinary significance to Shixie, so he sent an army to conquer Rinan, kill Yu State, and occupy the entire territory of Jiaozhou.

The people of Jiaozhou said: "Emperor Yuewu (Zhao Tuo) four hundred years ago, four hundred years later, it is getting darker." (Zhao Tuo is the first emperor of Nanyue, known as Nanyue Wu Emperor or Nanyue Wu King, because Zhao Tuo was the emperor when the policy was excellent, Lingnan people and Baiyue got along well, and brought the Central Plains technology in, the world felt its kindness, and the Shixie was comparable to Zhao Tuo, and he was exalting him)"

At the time of chaos in the Central Plains, two emperors suddenly appeared in the southwest of the Han Dynasty.

This news, after several months of twists and turns, finally reached the ears of Cao Cao in Xuchang.
