Text 66, Chapter 15 The Death of Wang Mang
There was indeed too much going on in 23 C.E.
After killing Liu Xiu and refrigerating Liu Xiu, the First Dynasty sent two groups of people on a business trip to fight Wang Mang.
On the side of the capital, Wang Mang can be said to be poor and in a hurry.
After quelling the attempted coup d'état of Wang She, Liu Xin, Dong Zhong and others, Wang Mang made military arrangements:
appointed his cousin Wang Yi, who had just escaped being beaten to death by Liu Xiu in Kunyang and lost the main force, as the great Sima to defend the capital; Appointed Taishi Wang Kuang (with the uprising
Wang Kuang of the coalition army has the same name and surname, not the same person), and the national general Aizhang (that is, the gangster who presented the copper cabinet to Wang Mang in 8 AD) defended Luoyang as foreign aid to the capital.
The two groups of men sent out at the beginning are like this:
King Kuang, the prince of Dingguo, led his troops to attack Luoyang, with the aim of opening the way to attack the capital Chang'an from east to west; Prime Minister Li Song and the newly promoted Xiping General Shen
Tu Jian attacked Wuguan (in present-day Shangnan, Shaanxi) with the aim of opening the way to attack Chang'an from the southeast.
This is a war that has no suspense, because the victory of the beginning and the defeat of Wang Mang were a foregone conclusion as early as the victory in Kunyang.
If you don't believe me, let's read it on.
