Chapter 113: The Emperor Fu is punished

Speaking of the few people who hated Huangfu Song the most in the court, it was natural to belong to the two great eunuchs Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that when Huangfu Song led his army north to Jizhou to conquer Zhang Jiao last year, he passed through Yedi, but found that Zhao Zhong, the middle attendant, had purchased more than the prescribed residence in Yedi. In a fit of rage, Huangfu Song wrote a recital to the emperor, hoping that the emperor would confiscate Zhao Zhong's residence. In addition, Zhang Rang, the regular servant, also sent someone to ask Huangfu Song for 50 million money, and Huangfu Song was unwilling to be with Zhang Rang and other eunuchs at that time, and naturally refused to give Zhang Rang's bribes.

At that time, Huang Fu Song's performance in the Yellow Turban Rebellion was very high, and even if Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong held a grudge against Huang Fu Song, it was difficult for them to slander Emperor Liu Hongjin at their most glorious time.

But that's no longer the case. Huangfu Song carried the trust of Emperor Liu Hong, but was at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Greek rebels. So Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang took the opportunity to join forces and impeached Emperor Liu Hong behind their backs. After Liu Hong, who was in an unhappy mood, listened to Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong's slander, he immediately issued an order to recall Huangfu Song back to Luoyang, took back Huang Fu Song's left cavalry general seal, and cut it to 6,000 households. Changed the title of the townsman, and there were 2,000 households.

Before, the news of Xiliangqiang Hu raising troops to rebel only spread in the Guannei and Luoyang courts, and later Huangfu Song's army was also a foreign army directly transferred from Jizhou, except for a part of the merchants walking in Luoyang who noticed the movement of the army, not many residents of Luoyang knew the news.

However, when Huangfu Song was recalled to Luoyang, and after Emperor Liu Hong took back the position of general of the left chariot cavalry and cut the feudal household of 6,000, some officials who were upset with Huangfu Song spread the news, and then it was naturally the news that the Xiliang rebels committed Sanfu. The news of the resurgence of chaos in the Liangzhou territory, which had only been pacified for many years, spread throughout the neighborhoods of the Luoyang capital in only three days. For the Han Dynasty, subduing the land of Liangzhou, whether it is up to the emperor or down to the ordinary people who beg for a living on the corner of Luoyang Street, is an extremely important matter.

There is no other reason, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty broke the Xiongnu and opened up the Silk Road, the strategic position of Liangzhou is extremely special and important. In order to completely recover the boundary of Liangzhou, hundreds of thousands of people died before and after the Han Dynasty, and many Qiang barbarians in Liangzhou were defeated or subdued. But it is a pity that because the Qiang Zhuhu and the Han people have been fighting for many years, the grievances and hatreds between the two ethnic groups cannot be easily erased. Either the Han officials deliberately treated the Qiang people harshly, or the Qiang Hu herdsmen deliberately robbed the Han people's property, in short, in Liangzhou, where the Qiang and Han people lived together, there would always be conflicts because of some trivial things. And when the conflict ferments, the Qianghu tribe will take advantage of this to rebel.

Let's not mention the Qianghu rebellion in the distance, just talk about the Xiqiang rebellion more than 20 years ago. In June of the fourth year of Yanxi (161), Lingwu, Xian Ling and other Qiang rebelled against the Han Dynasty, attacking Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Feng Yi, and Right Fufeng. In October, Lingwu, Xian Ling, Shen Di, Sister Prison and other Qiang barbarians joined forces to attack Bingzhou and Liangzhou, and the momentum was very strong, and the righteousness that had been attached to the Han for a long time was attached to Zhuqiang as soon as the Qiang people entered.

The Han court took Huangfu Gui as the middle general, and held the festival to supervise the Guanxi army to fight. Huangfu Gui marched to break the Zhuqiang, beheaded countless people, and the Zhuqiang feared the power of the Huangfu Gui, and persuaded more than 100,000 people to surrender. In the following year, Shen and other Qiang barbarians attacked Zhangye County, Jiuquan County and other places, Huangfu Gui sent Han Qiang cavalry to march into Longyou, and more than 100,000 people including Shen Diqiang and Qiang Dahao Dian Chang surrendered to Huangfu Gui. In the winter of that year, the Qiang of Yunnan rebelled against the Han Dynasty and attacked Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and other counties.

In the sixth year of Yanxi (163), the Qiang situation turned prosperous, Liangzhou was occupied by the Qiang people, and soon, Sun Qiang, the Taishou of Longxi, led the army to break through the Qiang, beheaded more than 3,000 people, and captured tens of thousands of people. In the winter of that year, the Han court appointed Duan Ying as the captain of the Qiang Protector and presided over the Qiang affairs. Duan Ying's enwei used division and division, causing the Qiang barbarians in Liangzhou to attack each other in winter, with heavy casualties.

In the spring of the seventh year of Yanxi (164), 355 people of the Qiang people were afraid of the name of Duan Ying, Liangduo, Dian Na and other chieftains, and led more than 3,000 people to surrender.

In the autumn of the eighth year of Yanxi (165), Duan Ying marched into the army and broke Sister Le again, when he fried Qiang, and captured nearly 10,000 people. Liangzhou gradually calmed down.

In the first month of the first year of Yongkang (167), the first Lingqiang five or six thousand cavalry attacked Yunyang and other places, and the Huns Zhonglang broke Zhang Huan's troops to break it, and in the summer of that year, the first Lingqiang marched into the army and three auxiliaries, broke through the second battalion of the Han army, and killed more than 1,000 people. In October, Zhang Huan sent Sima Yinduan and Dong Zhuo to attack together, breaking through the first zero and other Qiang, killing their chieftains, and beheading more than 10,000 prisoners. Zhang Huan made a great contribution because of this, and he should have been made a marquis, so because he was not a eunuch, he only gave 200,000 yuan, except for Zhang Huan's family, Zhang Huan did not accept it.

In the spring of the first year of Jianning (168), Emperor Ling was invited by Duan Ying, the captain of Huqiang, to send 5,000 cavalry, 10,000 infantry, and 3,000 vehicles, and ordered him to attack Dongqiang. So Duan Ying led more than 10,000 soldiers, brought 15 days of rations, marched from Pengyang, pointed directly at Gaoping, and fought with Xianling Zhuqiang in Fengyi Mountain. When the Qiang people were very strong, Duan Ying ordered the sergeants to hold long blades, Zhang Jin's crossbows, and light horses on both wings, encouraging the soldiers to say that they are thousands of miles away from home, and they can succeed if they enter; If you retreat, you will die, and everyone will work hard to move forward and strive for fame. Then he took the lead and rushed into the enemy formation with a shout, and the soldiers then attacked, defeated Zhuqiang, beheaded more than 8,000 ranks, and obtained 280,000 cattle, horses, and sheep. The Han court worshiped General Duan Yingqiang with the merit of breaking the Qiang, and transferred money and gifts for his military expenses.

In the summer of that year, Duan Ying pursued Xian Lingqiang with light cavalry, day and night, and broke the Qiang army in Luyanshui, Luochuan, Lingxianshui and other places, and then fought with the Qiang army in Lingwu Valley, and finally broke Xian Lingqiang, Duan Ying took advantage of the victory and marched into Jingyang. So Lingqiang was basically pacified. The remnants of more than 4,000 of them are scattered between the valleys of Hanyang-gun.

In July of the following year, Duan Ying continued to march, launched an attack on the Dongqiang scattered in the Hanyang area, won consecutive battles, and finally surrounded the Qiang people in the valley, Duan Ying ordered to ride Sima Tianyan, fake Sima Xia Yu led 7,000 troops, Sima Zhang Kai led 3,000 troops, divided into two ways to attack the Qiang people by night, and led the infantry to attack the frontal attack, so the Qiang army was broken, and more than 19,000 people under the Qiang people were killed, and countless cattle, horses, livestock, tents and other things were obtained, so Dongqiang was pacified. Duan Ying was named the Marquis of F County with his merits, and he ate 10,000 households.

Duan Ying (Ji Ming) and Huang Fu Gui (Wei Ming) and Zhang Huan ( Ran Ming) were well-known in the government and the opposition for successively defeating the Qiang rebels. When Xiliang was pacified, Luoyang City was once drunk for two or three days, and Emperor Liu Hong personally ordered that the widows and widows in the city were lonely, and they were rewarded with wine and meat.

But who would have thought that how long has it been, and the Xiliang chaos has made waves again? All the big Han people who learned the news couldn't be calm anymore.
