"At the end of the eighth hour of the first month of November in the third year of Heping (26 years ago), the southeast of the county was leveled, the original Yelang Mansion, and the earth dragon turned over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Yelangjun and the participants of the hundred barbarians, all dead. ”

The above is a record of the official sources of the Han Dynasty. It is worth noting that the word "earth dragon turned over", the so-called "earth dragon", refers specifically to earthquakes. The dragon turned over, and the earth shook dramatically, which is the understanding of earthquakes by the ancients.

This explosion, which was comparable to an earthquake, was rumored to be miraculous in Yoro and Muki. There is a bit of mystery, saying that it is because the new king of Yelang gathered the crowd to rebel, and the mountain god was angry and sent down divine punishment; There is a more logical one, saying that it rained for several days, causing the secret passage of Yelang Wangfu to collapse, causing the collapse of the wooden house Guangtang; And the most bizarre and the most talked-about version is that the Han envoy summoned the Divine Fire Thunderbolt on the Copper Furnace Ridge to destroy Yelangjun and Baiman, who intended to rebel in one fell swoop.

Regarding this last statement, the official of Qiqi County resolutely denied it and dismissed it as a folk myth. Officials denied it, but because there were many witnesses that night, including several Yi marshals, this statement actually spread from their mouths, so it is quite convincing. It has become the most widely spread legend with the largest number of believers.

This legend has been spread to Qianwei, Ba County, Shu County, and even the entire southwest. "When the four Yi heard it, they were all frightened" (Chen Li's words)

And Chen Li also vaguely said that it was "the earth dragon turned over" in the report sent to the imperial court. First, it is because this statement has a certain market in Qiqi County, secondly, it is easier to win the trust of the imperial court (it is always difficult to say what "the mountain god is powerful" and "the Han envoy summons thunder"), and thirdly, it is because it is at the request of the Marquis of Fuping.

As a courtier, he has such a powerful killing weapon in his hand, but the court does not have ...... It is not difficult to imagine how the ministers of the imperial court will attack Zhang Fang once they learn the truth. It is said that the rain of guns and arrows is light, and it is not impossible to copy his secret gunpowder research and development base in Chang'an.

Therefore, although Zhang Fang made another great contribution to the envoy and removed a major hidden danger for the imperial court at the lowest cost, he could only do the same as when he participated in the Western Expedition - deep hidden merit and fame.

Zhang Fang also had to write a report, and as an envoy of the Son of Heaven and a person who witnessed the event, his report was more valued by the court than Chen Li's. It can be said that how he writes, the court will accept it. Zhang Fang characterized this incident as a rainstorm for several days, which caused a landslide, and the earth dragon turned over, "Fortunately, thanks to the Son of Heaven, the heavens and the earth have a feeling, and a double disaster has befallen them, so they will never rebel." ”

Well, it's all right to get involved with the emperor for a good thing, and it's a good shield. In the future, if someone plays the "legend" they heard in front of the king, they can reprimand the other party with righteousness and solemnity: "Do you want to question the Son of Heaven's lack of virtue and authority?" ”

Since Liu Biao came to power, natural disasters have continued, either solar eclipses, floods, or earthquakes, almost every year. Liu Biao, who most believed in the perception of heaven and man, that "natural disasters are the lack of virtue of the Son of Heaven and the failure of the government and government, are God's warning to the Son of Heaven" made him frightened and worried. Zhang Fang's recital is simply a booster, no matter what the facts are, Liu Biao urgently needs such a recital, who stops and who is in a hurry! Who questioned...... Hehe.

Zhang Fang saw Liu Biao's mentality, gently and skillfully erased his "merits" and eliminated the potential crisis.

Yelang's rebel alliance, due to the fact that it was wiped out from the first evil to the co-subordinate to the vassal, and this alliance was stillborn just after it was established. Yelang and the Zhuyi tribe, who have no leader, are in chaos, as the so-called opportunity cannot be lost, and if it is lost, it will not come again, take advantage of his illness and take his life.

On November 17, the Hexi Han army in Jiangyang, which was stationed in Qianwei, took the lead in attacking the Yibu in the southeast of Qianwei Zhuti (County), which was the third of the 22 euphems in response to Yelang's rebellion. At the same time, the Han Dynasty placed the two counties of Qianwei and Qiqi at the junction, and the Hanyang Commander, who was used to monitor the two counties, also sent troops to respond. Quickly extinguished Sanyi and relocated its criminals to Jingzhou.

On November 22, another elite Han army stationed in Wuling, Jingzhou, Jincheng, Hexi, marched into Qiqi County. Subsequently, the Jincheng Han army commanded by Taishou Chen Li and Duwei Wannian, and Changshi commanded the soldiers of Qiqi County, and the soldiers were divided into two routes, attacking the northwest and southwest roads respectively. Like two pliers, clamping towards Yelang.

Where the Han army passed, the leaderless Zhuyi village almost fell into the wind. The Han army did not spend much effort and advanced all the way to the base camp of the Yelang people, the Yelang Walled City.

The Han army encountered a little decent resistance here, and the Yelang people first resisted stubbornly. Half a month later, the Han army broke the village, and the remnants retreated to Langshan. And one of the leaders of this remnant is Nonghan.

In mid-December, the Qianwei Han army entered the Qianqi and joined forces with Chen Li and Wannian's subordinates, and besieged the last resistance of Yelang at Langshan.

Just as the war was at a stalemate, in late December, the Han envoy Yiqi appeared at the foot of Lang Mountain.

The remnants of Langshan were suddenly in chaos.

Subsequently, the Han envoy sent a messenger Ju Ji to deliver a message to the Yelang people: "Those who believe in me can live; Unbelievers, go to hell. ”

Yelang people also don't know what hell is, but it doesn't prevent them from associating - the east village of the palace, the wooden house and the wide hall, the deep pit, the mutilated corpse, and the shocking pool of blood, isn't it a living prison on earth?

The Yoro succumbed.

On the last day of the third year of Heping, all the remnants of Yelang who were trapped in Langshan surrendered to the Han army. But there is no nonghan among them, it is said that with a few hearts, escaped from a certain cave in the back mountain.

At this point, the rebellion of Yoro was completely quelled.

In history, Chen Li and Wan Yong Yelang really took a lot of effort. It took nearly half a year before and after, and it was even defeated, and the soldiers were lost. After that, Chen Li sent strange soldiers to cut off his food and lure them with counter-plots. That's when the Yoro people were defeated. And Weng Zhi and Wu Xie are also dying and struggling, and they resist stubbornly. In the end, these two big bosses were besieged in the middle of the mountain. Taking advantage of the lack of rain in winter, the water source was cut off, and finally forced the Yelang people to mess with themselves. It took two years to complete the far-reaching turmoil (Yoro has since disappeared).

Zhang Fang's operation to break the night, compared with Chen Li in history, only used his subordinates and subordinates, plus 3,000 catties of explosives. Dog leash!

The Yelang people, who lost the king and Yelang, not only did the alliance fall apart and could not fight the Han army, but even the time and strength of resistance were far from being comparable to the original. And he was also trapped in the middle of the mountain, and Chen Li had to be surrounded by water for a long time.

Zhang Fang only sent a messenger to convey a word, and the rebellion was ended.

For rebels, the Han court will not be soft. This will be followed by a series of punitive measures: the relocation of their criminals, the destruction of their temples, the destruction of their ethnicity, and the acceptance of their territory.

Yoro has since become a legend.

Zhang Fang, who turned Yelang into a legend and became a legend of Southwest Yi, set foot on the way home again on the first day of the early spring of the fourth year of Heping, under the worship of the Hanyi people.
