30. The most fashionable thing
In this way, Wang Mang's new policy of bullying the people triggered a nationwide wave of revolt, and everyone came to gather troops to revolt.
Anti-Wang Mang is becoming a fashion.
Among them, the common people fought for survival, the bureaucratic landlord group fought for the right to rule, and the Liu clan nobles wanted to restore the Liu Han dynasty.
Of course, this is also an era of mixed fish and dragons, mud and sand, with extreme personal purposes, wanting to collect money from the audience after a few twists on the stage in this troubled world
There are also a lot of people.
In April 6 AD, that is, when Wang Mang poisoned Emperor Ping of the Western Han Dynasty and supported Emperor Xuan's 2-year-old great-grandson Liu Ying as his heir, Liu Chong, the Marquis of Anzhong, was with him
Zhang Shao, the prime minister, discussed recklessly, and he said impassionedly:
"Wang Mang's dictatorship and control of the government will inevitably endanger the interests of the Liu family. Everyone in the world is against it, but they don't dare to stand up and raise troops to resist, which is really Liu
Shame on the clan! Our Liu family will do it first, as long as everyone is on it, we will definitely be able to play a peaceful and prosperous world! ”
As a result, Liu Chong and Zhang Shao led more than 100 people to attack Zhiwancheng in Nanyang County, but they soon failed.
Although this uprising failed, Wang Mang did not take it seriously, and within a few days he became a "fake emperor", that is, acting as the emperor. But, it's there
Nanyang started the first battle of violence and recklessness.
Liu Chong is Liu Xiu's uncle, and he and Liu Xiu's father Liu Qin are both great-great-grandsons of Liu Mai, Marquis of Chungling.
However, at this time, Liu Xiu was still young and not at home. He was only 11 years old and was studying at his uncle Liu Liang, the magistrate of Xiao County.
The following year, that is, in August 7 AD, Zhai Yi, the Taishou of Dongjun, took advantage of the opportunity of training soldiers and horses and reviewing troops to launch an anti-reckless armed uprising.
He conspired with Liu Hanzong, Liu Yu, the governor of this county, Liu Huang, Marquis of Wuping, and others, and established Liu Xin, Marquis of Yanxiang, as the Son of Heaven, and proclaimed himself the Great Sima and Zhutian General.
spread all over the country, exposing Wang Mang's crime of "poisoning Emperor Ping, taking the throne of the Son of Heaven, and wanting to exterminate the Han family", and called on everyone to rise up and flatten him.
(Heaven punishes recklessness.) )
This was echoed by many people, and Zhai Yi's anti-reckless army soon had more than 100,000 people.
If last year, Liu Chong only led 100 people to attack Wancheng, Wang Mang felt that there was no danger, this time he was afraid.
Zhai Yi was the son of Zhai Fangjin, the famous minister of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty.
Zhai Fangjin doesn't know if you still remember, he is Liu Xiu's alumnus in Taixue, of course, he studied Taixue decades earlier than Liu Xiu.
In his early years, his family was poor, and in order not to interrupt his studies, his mother had to go with him to the capital to weave cloth and sell shoes for him to study.
He was very competitive, and after some hard work, he not only succeeded in his studies, but also did well in his career, and became a high-achieving student who was born in the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty
Celebrities.
Zhai Fangjin has become a model of success in adversity, and it is also a benchmark for countless families to educate their children to study hard and make progress every day.
His sons are not simple, Zhai Xuan was named the Marquis of Gaoling, and Zhai Yi became the Taishou of Dongjun.
If it is said that the Liu clan is reckless, it is still a little selfish (reviving the Liu Han Dynasty), Zhai Yi, as a person with a foreign surname, does not let the children of the official eunuchs go
When the high-ranking officials did not enjoy it and rebelled with their heads, it sent a very strong signal to the people of the whole country:
Wang Mang really should be flattened!
Zhai Yi's anti-reckless army directed at the capital Chang'an.
At this time, the common people in the Sanfu area responded to Zhai Yi and rose up under the leadership of Zhao Ming and Huo Hong, who were from Huaili (now southeast of Xingping, Shaanxi).
For a time, the people of a total of 23 counties west of Maoling (now northeast of Xingping, Shaanxi) rose up almost at the same time.
Zhao Ming and Huo Hong proclaimed themselves generals and led more than 100,000 people to attack the official mansion and kill corrupt officials, and approached the capital.
There was chaos in the capital.
Wang Mang was frightened.
At this time, he was still acting as the emperor, and he was trying to become a veritable "emperor".
If everyone opposes the law like this, not only will the emperor not be able to do it, but he may not be able to save his life.
He was so frightened that he couldn't eat or sleep, so he prayed in the suburban temple with his son Liu Ying in his arms, asking for the blessing of the gods.
(Afraid of not being able to eat, he hugged his children day and night and prayed to the suburban temple.) )
Of course, the first brother is in front of him, and he has been chasing it for many years, and the duck that is about to be cooked can't let it fly!
He urgently mobilized a large army and frantically suppressed Zhai Yi, Zhao Ming, Huo Hong and others.
On the other hand, he sent a document to the whole country to tell nonsense to the effect that:
Don't worry, bear with me, don't all come and beat me, I will return the power to my son Liu Ying in a short time.
(The edict is intended to be a regent to return to the government.) )
At the end of winter of that year, Wang Mang sent Wang Yi and other seven generals to besiege Zhai Yi and defeat Zhai Yi at Chenliu (now Kaifeng, Henan).
In the spring of the following year, Zhao Ming and Huo Hong were also defeated and died.
Wang Mang escaped, he was very proud, temporarily tore off his disguise, and frantically retaliated against these people who wanted to beat him.
He dug up the ancestral graves of the leaders of the uprising, beheaded the heirs, exterminated the three ancestors, and piled up the corpses of all the people involved in Puyang (present-day Puyang, Henan).
South), Wuyan (now Dongpingdong, Shandong), Huaili and other 5 places on the thoroughfare, next to the tree on the wooden sign, written "anti-thief medaka salamander" 6 words,
Intimidate everyone.
However, this bloody high-pressure policy did not intimidate everyone.
In 8 A.D., that is, not long after Wang Mang dug people's ancestral graves, exterminated people's descendants, and threw people's corpses, Zhang Chong, a doorman in the middle of the dynasty, and other 6 people conspired to kidnap Wang Mang and establish the king of Chu
Liu Xun was the emperor.
However, unfortunately, the matter was leaked, and Zhang Chong and others were killed by Wang Mang.
So many people in the world want to cut off Wang Mang with their heads, which is completely the result of Wang Mang's years of hard work, and it is Wang Mang's great failure and sorrow for people and politics.
Everyone is gradually seeing through you Wang Mang, with you as a brother, everyone is willing to die.
In other words, under your rule, it is better for everyone to live than to die.
Wang Mang is a brother to this extent, it is really better to hit the wall.
Wang Mang really became the emperor, and the struggle for armed resistance continued unabated.
In 9 A.D., Liu Kuai, the Marquis of Xuxiang, led thousands of people to raise troops, first attacking Jimo (now Laixi County, Shandong), but was not killed.
In the same year, Liu Du, a native of Zhending (now Shijiazhuang, Hebei), conspired to raise troops against recklessness, and was executed.
When it comes to this, we have no choice but to say that Wang Mang's life is hard and tired.
When the emperor first weighed his own catties, he felt that he almost stood up and fought for it, worked for a while, and beat most of the competitors
Get down, sit down on the dragon chair, pull your hand in front of you, and roar:
"This world is mine!"
As for someone coming to grab this seat, or many people come around to cause trouble, it is often inevitable, but it is because people warm up the dragon chair under their buttocks
Later, I or my descendants did not work well, and everyone was provoked before they started.
Because in all dynasties, the use of force, especially against the person sitting on the dragon chair, is not only a force job, but also extremely risky.
Like Wang Mang, he said insincere words, killed many people, paid a heavy price, and made a stinky sweat before he secretly sat on this
Seat.
And from the moment he had the idea of grabbing this seat, to sitting in this seat, to being cut off, he was scolding him and beating people again and again
, never stopped.
And he has obviously sat in this position for 15 years, and no one wants to admit that this is the truth.
To this day, the vast majority of people are still reluctant to admit that Wang Mang's new dynasty is an independent dynasty, preferring to say that it is a black humor.
The reason has been mentioned earlier.
Sad, really sad!
