Chapter 016: Xiahou Yuanping Xiliang
After Ma Chao was defeated and retreated to Hanzhong, there were still rebel forces such as Han Sui and Song Jian in Liangzhou, but later they were pacified and defeated by Xiahou Yuan one by one, and then Han Sui died of illness, and no one in Liangzhou could fight against Xiahou Yuan, and Sui Ping.
[Suppression of Han Sui]
According to Wei Luo, after Cao Cao killed all the descendants of Han Sui in Jingshi, he personally wrote a letter to Yan Xing, explaining that Yan Xing's father was being imprisoned and threatening Yan Xing. Han Sui heard that Yan Xing's father was still alive and wanted him to be killed together in order to strengthen Yan Xing's will, so he forcibly married his youngest daughter to Yan Xing, and Yan Xing had no choice but to marry Han Sui's daughter. Cao Cao really suspected Yan Xing because of this, but in the end he did not harm Yan Xing's father.
In the nineteenth year of Jian'an (214), when Han Sui was stationed in Xianqin, Xiahou Yuan turned to attack Han Sui after Ma Chao retreated, Han Sui was defeated and left, Xiahou Yuan continued to pursue Han Sui until Luoyang after receiving his military rations. This place is about 20 miles away from Han Sui's army, some of the generals tend to continue to attack Han Sui, and some think that they should turn to attack Xingguo, and Xiahou Yuan himself believes that Han Sui's troops are elite, Xingguo's castle is strong, even if he barely attacks, he can't conquer it immediately, it is better to attack Changli's many Qiang lair, because of how long Han Sui's army is to leave the Qiang soldiers, attack it must be saved, so that Han Sui if he lets the Qiang soldiers save themselves, they fall into a lonely situation, and to save Changli, they must go out of the city to fight with Xiahou Yuan's army, and they can be captured in a battle.
So Xiahou Yuan left the subordinate general in charge of supervision to guard the baggage, and he personally led the elite infantry to raid and burn Changli Qiangtun, and beheaded a lot. Hearing the news, the Qiang soldiers in Han Sui's army returned to their respective tribes, and Han Sui had no choice but to lead the army to rescue and fight against Xiahou Yuan. Seeing that Han Sui's army was huge, the generals were very troubled, and they were ready to camp and dig trenches for a protracted war. Xiahou Yuan encouraged everyone again: "Our army has been fighting for thousands of miles, if we set up camp and dig ditches at that time, then the soldiers will be demoralized and unable to persist in the battle, although the enemy has a huge army, it is easy to deal with." So he beat the drum and marched into the army, broke Han Sui's army, and obtained his handsome flag and other dry items.
Returning to Luoyang, he sent troops to besiege Xingguo again, and the king of Di defected to Ma Chao, and the rest surrendered. Turning to attack Gaoping and Tuge, the defenders there fled one after another, and Xiahou Yuan collected all the military supplies there. After this war, with outstanding military achievements, Xiahou Yuan won the holiday.
According to the record of "Wei Luo", at that time, the king of Xingguo Agui and the king of Baixiang had more than 10,000 tribes, and in the sixteenth year of Jian'an (211), they followed Ma Chao to make trouble. After Ma Chao was defeated, Agui was defeated by Xiahou Yuan, and tens of millions of southwest tribes entered Shu, and the rest of the tribes that failed to go all surrendered.
【Pingding Song Jian】
Song Jian had already set off a rebellion in Liangzhou when the kingdom was alive, he proclaimed himself the king of Heshou Ping Han, gathered his subordinates in Caohan, changed the Yuan, and placed hundreds of officials for more than 30 years.
In the nineteenth year of Jian'an (214), Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Yuan to lead Zhang He, Zhang Ji and others to crusade against Song Jian, Xiahou Yuan then sent troops from Xingguo, quickly marched and besieged Caohan, with a weak force of only more than a month, he broke Song Jian, who had tens of thousands of fierce soldiers and horses, and failed to crusade for the imperial court several times, and Song Jianqi beheaded all the officials such as the prime minister.
In addition, Xiahou Yuan sent Zhang He and others to lead troops to pacify Heguan, cross the river and go deep into Xiaohuangzhong, and all the Qiang tribes in Hexi surrendered one after another, and since then, Longyou, which has been a disaster for a long time, has been pacified. At that time, Cao Cao said with emotion: "Song Jian made ****, disobeyed for more than 30 years, Xiahou Yuan eliminated him in one fell swoop, and was as powerful as a tiger in Guanyou, invincible." As Jonny once said, 'I'm not as good as you!' ’”
【Han Sui's Death】
At the end of the nineteenth year of Jian'an (214), Yan Xing betrayed Han Sui, who was extremely devastated by this incident and prepared to enter Shu, but finally gave up under the persuasion of Cheng Gongying.
According to the record of "Wei Luo", Cheng Gongying, the surname Cheng Gong, and the name Ying. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was a native of Jincheng (now northwest of Yongjing, Gansu). At the end of Zhongping, Cong Han Sui was his confidant. In Jian'an, Han Sui defeated Huayin and returned to Huangzhong, and the troops dispersed, but he was the only one who followed.
According to the "Dictionary", Han Sui was in Huangzhong at that time, and his son-in-law Yan Xing gathered his troops to kill Han Sui and surrendered, responded to Xiahou Yuan, and attacked Han Sui at night. Han Sui was extremely frustrated because of this, and told Cheng Gongying that he planned to retreat from Qiang to Shu and attach himself to Liu Bei. Cheng Gongying objected, believing that Han Sui had been raising the army for decades, and now it had failed. However, he should not abandon the prestige he had established in Xizhou and turn to another place, and offered Han Sui a plan to hide in the Qiang tribe first to recruit his subordinates, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback. Han Sui followed the plan, and retreated to Qiang with thousands of followers, because Han Sui had been kind to the Qiang people, so he was protected by the Qiang people.
In the twentieth year of Jian'an (215), Xiahou Yuan returned to Hanzhong, leaving Yan Xing, and Han Sui gathered tens of thousands of Qiang Hu soldiers to attack Yan Xing. Soon, Han Sui died of illness, Tian Le, Yang Kui, Lu Yan, and Jiang Shi beheaded Han Sui and sent it to Cao Cao (one said to have been killed by his subordinates) at the age of more than 70.
There are two theories about the cause of Han Sui's death, one is that he was killed by his subordinates, and the other is that he died of illness. Emperor Wu Ji", "Three Kingdoms? The Biography of Dong Zhuo, The Book of the Later Han Dynasty? The Biography of Dong Zhuolie and the Book of the Continuation of the Han Dynasty are both recorded.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In March of Emperor Wu (20 years of Jian'an), Gongxi conquered Zhang Lu and went to Chencang, and will enter Di from Wudu; The people blocked the road, and sent Zhang He, Zhu Ling and others to break it. In the summer of April, the public from Chencang to the dispersal pass, to the river pool. King Dou Mao had more than 10,000 people, and refused to accept the danger, and in May, the public attacked and slaughtered him. Xiping, Jincheng generals Liyan, Jiang Shi and others beheaded Han Sui.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms? In the sixteenth year of Dong Zhuo's biography, Chao and the generals of Guanzhong rebelled, and Taizu conquered it. The language is in "Martial Arts". Then he ran to the golden city and was killed by his generals.
The Book of the Later Han Dynasty? In the nineteenth year of Dong Zhuolie's biography, Yang Fu, a native of Tianshui, broke through the super, went to Hanzhong, and descended to Liu Bei. Han then went to Jincheng Qiangzhong and was killed by his subordinates.
"Continuation of the Han Book" Cao Gong sent a bias to attack Liangzhou. In the nineteenth year, Song Jian was captured, and Han Sui fled to Qiangzhong and was killed.
The record of Han Sui's illness and death is only in "Wei Luo", which is as follows:
Guo Xian's character is young and simple, a native of Xiping, and his right surname in the county. Jian'an is the county merit, and the state can't get rid of it, and Rendu is the county to return. In the seventeenth year, Han Yue lost the public and returned from Qiangzhong, according to the constitution. Many people wanted to take the covenant to make merit, but the constitution was angry, saying, "When people are poor and come to me, why should they be in danger?" So he embraced it. Later, he died of illness, and Tian Le, Yang Kui and others beheaded him.
When it is sent, Kui and others want to slack the name of the constitution, and the constitution refuses to be in the name, saying that I can't bear to live and try to do it, how can I bear to take the dead to take credit? Wait and wait. When Taizu attacked Hanzhong, he was in Wudu, and Kui waited to send the first arrival. Taizu Su heard the name of the constitution, and the sight was sparse, the blame was not in it, so he asked Kui and so on, and Kui Gu was right. Taizu sighed at his ambition, and listed it with Kui and gave him the title of Marquis of Guannei, and the name Zhen Longright was right. Huang Chu died of illness in the first year. At the beginning, the country pursued its affairs and gave its viscount the Marquis of Guannei.
To put it simply, the record of "Wei Luo" is an isolated evidence, but in fact, only the record of "Wei Luo" is the most detailed about Han Sui's death, and when Tian Le, Yang Kui and others invited Cao Cao to take credit, even if Han Sui died of illness, it is impossible for them to say that Han Sui was beheaded after he died of illness, and they will definitely say that Han Sui was killed by them on the surface, and Cao Cao will pretend not to know even if he knows that Han Sui died of illness, so that Han Sui was killed by others, not died of illness. Therefore, in history, the possibility of Han Sui dying of illness in his later years is not small.
After the death of Han Sui, his subordinate Cheng Gongying returned to the imperial court, and the two princes of Guanzhong and Guanxi, Ma and Han, both withdrew from the stage of history.
