On February 1, 23 A.D., spring had not yet arrived.

On a beach by Yushui, the altar built by the new soil was decorated with flowers, and the coalition army held a meeting to hold the enthronement ceremony of Liu Xuan.

(Set up an mandala in the sand of Yushui, Chen Bing Conference)

This is a somewhat hilarious ceremony for the enthronement of the new emperor.

Before and in the future, of course, whoever sits on the throne of the first brother will have to have a ceremony. Among these hundreds of people who became a brother in the history of China's feudal society, except

Wu Meiniang, everyone is a gentleman. Although everyone is old and young, the level of ability is high and low, and the conditions are good and bad, the original of mixing to this step

Because they are different, it is still necessary to have a ritual.

However, most of these ceremonies are extravagant and are mostly indoor or square events.

There are relatively few people like Liu Xuan who build a mound of dirt by the river and declare themselves emperors, and there are really no conditions to create conditions to be emperors.

But we also have to make it clear whether we are willing or not, whether we can or not, and when we will be the emperor, even Liu Xuan himself can't be the master.

Because, he's just a doll.

Let's take a look.

"Bad money" Liu Xuan stood south on top of the mound, trembling to accept the worship of a group of martial artists in front of him.

He has always been cowardly and incompetent, he has never seen such a scene, knowing that these people do not really support him, and he almost moves in order to fight for power

knives, I can't help but beat the drum in my heart.

He also knows his own catties, and knows that although he can sometimes be clever, if he goes head-to-head, no one below can fight.

It's just that we don't know if he knows in his heart that Wang Kuang and others are interested in these catties above him.

At this time, everyone shouted long live, knelt down and kowtowed.

Liu Xuan's performance at this time not only didn't look like an emperor, but he didn't even look like an ordinary man.

He knew that he was useless, and he didn't know how long he could do it, and he felt guilty and ghosted, and he was even scared and suffocated, sweating, raising his hands, and

Stammered and speechless.

Almost all history books record his embarrassment like this: "Sweating with shame, I can't raise my hands and speak." ”

According to the presiding speech drafted in advance, Liu Xuan announced an amnesty to the world, and Jianyuan "changed the beginning".

Because Liu Xuan's original position in the coalition army was the general of the first change, the era name was "change the beginning", and people called him "the first emperor".

However, we must state for the record that his announcement of amnesty to the world was pure bragging. Of course, this is also the trickster behind him, Wang Kuang and others bragging.

Because, the world is not theirs yet, and the coalition army has only marched hundreds of miles from Chungling, and even Wancheng has not yet been captured, and not even a single Nanyang County has been taken

There is control.

They don't even have an office location.

Wang Kuang and Liu Xuan's generation still have no culture, they don't know the vastness of China's territory, how can it be exhausted by the naked eye!

As soon as the first dynasty opened, it was natural to appoint a group of cadres first. Because of the large number of cadres appointed in this first batch, and most of them have not done anything

We can only introduce a few things that we are familiar with.

Liu Liang is the third elder of the country, Wang Kuang is the prince of Dingguo, Wang Feng is the prince of Chengguo, Zhu Kun is the great Sima, Liu Jiu is the great Situ, and Chen Mu is the great Sikong.

Most of the other coalition leaders were appointed generals.

It must be pointed out that in this first cadre appointment of the First Dynasty, the Li Tong brothers were the big winners, and the Liu Xiu brothers, Liu Xiu brothers, and close relatives and friends were revealed

But it's not fair.

Politics is people.

A slight analysis of this list of cadres will give us a glimpse of the leaders of the coalition and the military regime of the First Dynasty and the delicate relationship between them

step of understanding.

The three Li Tong brothers all became important ministers: he himself was the general of the Zhu State and the Marquis of the Auxiliary Han, Li Yi was the king of Wuyin, and the third brother Li Song was the prime minister.

The old Li family was rich and noble, starting from the opening of the First Dynasty.

Why is this brother so popular, there are reasons in it, we'll talk about it later.

By the way, Li Tong will continue to marry Liu Xiu's younger sister Liu Boji, which will also be a matter later.

Let's look at the Liu Xiu brothers.

I don't say that everyone understands that their uncle Liu Liang is completely an ornament. Because there has never been the position of "three elders of the country", there are posts here because of people

Pure comfort. In the countryside, there is the title of "three elders", which is equivalent to today's village committee members or village leaders. Let Liu Liang take this position, that is, play

Let's play.

What Liu Xuan received was actually a false position.

Liu Xuan's Da Situ nominally ranked as Gong, second only to Shanggong, and his main duty was to be in charge of the education of the people.

At this time, it was a state of war, and fighting a war was a group fight, all with fists and swords and guns. For those who are this official, there are not many of them, and there are not many of them

Many.

Liu Xuan was originally an imperial talent with the ambition of passing through heaven and earth, and not long ago he was still commanding the coalition army to win many battles, and his mood at this time can be imagined.

Liu Xiu's position at this time was too often and a general.

is often in charge of ceremonial sacrifices, and the partial general is the deputy general in the army, who runs errands, does chores, and does heavy work.

In the years when the world was chaotic and everything was done with fists, letting someone in charge of ceremonial sacrifices was tantamount to keeping him cool on the side.

Of course, this is also wronged, and I will talk about him later.

Liu Xiu's second brother-in-law, Deng Chen, had no regrets and followed Liu Xiu's brothers to revolt, and because he was too loyal to Liu Xiu's brothers, he appointed him as a partial general.

Liu Xiu's fiancée Yin Lihua's eldest brother Yin Zhi put down his studies in Taixue in the capital, and led more than 1,000 relatives and friends to join Liu Xiu's brothers

He became a lieutenant, and because he was too good at conscription, he was also appointed as a partial general.

Liu Xiu's maternal uncle Fan Hong is too good in character, too prestigious, and both civil and military, Liu Xuan also wants to appoint him as a partial general, anyway, many deputy generals in the army are actually enough

It's a lot of errands and work.

How do you know that when Fan Hong saw that the unhealthy trend in employing people was like this, and the officialdom was sinister, he didn't want to play with these people, so he hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him:

"The grass people are just scholars, and they don't know anything about military affairs, so please take back your majesty's order."

(Hong kowtowed: "Scholars do not practice military affairs.") ”）

He was willing to return to his hometown.

Fan Hong returned to his hometown of Huyang, organized the villagers to gather together to live, produce, build barracks, dig trenches, and protect everyone from the war

Disturb.

In that bastard's age, he showed a unique bone and demeanor.

Among the early leaders of the original Green Forest Army, Wang Chang and Ma Wu have always been staunch supporters of Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu's brothers, so they can't do without them.

Not to mention reusable.

Wang Chang was appointed as a court lieutenant and a general.

At this time, everyone was busy fighting, they all had knives in their hands, and they couldn't care about small conflicts between each other

Time and trouble.

Therefore, this court lieutenant is also a comforting position.

Because Wang Chang had successfully brought the Xiajiang soldiers under Liu Xuan's command, at the beginning of this change, in order to stabilize him, Wang Kuang and others first broke him down

: Let Wang Chang go on a long trip and take a few people to Runan County and Pei County, which the coalition forces have never visited, to see if there is a chance to fight.

Ma Wu was straightforward and was appointed as a partial general.

Let's put it bluntly here, the establishment of the First Dynasty made Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, Zhu Kun and other former leaders of the Green Forest Army control the coalition army, Liu Xuan and Liu

The Xiu brothers and their followers were ostracized.

In the entire coalition army, Liu Xiu, who had the highest education, the most good at fighting, and the most strategic, was expelled by those "bad money" as "good money".

The personnel arrangements for the first batch of cadres of the First Dynasty made many people in the coalition army very disappointed and unconvinced.

(Because Haojie was disappointed, he was not convinced.) ）

How is this convincing?!

Here, I would like to remind you to pay special attention to Liu Xiu's attitude towards this personnel arrangement and his position.

Liu Xiu's position of Taichang, even in the peaceful and prosperous times, did not have a lot to do, and at present, the army is in chaos, and even a person who understands etiquette and sacrifice is looking for it

If you don't come out, you can see that this position is empty and dispensable.

However, Liu Xiu showed that he was very satisfied with his two positions and was very useful.

At that time, the company had just played a brand, and the office conditions were extremely poor, and even Liu Xuan did not have an office or desk, let alone others. All kinds of office supplies

If you can be brief, you can be brief, and if you can't be brief, you have to be brief, because these things are not like food and clothing, and you can use them if you grab them.

Even, this first batch of cadres doesn't even have a minimum official seal - where to get it?!

Liu Xiu has a way.

He tied a seized seal of the Dingwu Hou Jiacheng to his waist, and regardless of whether it was commensurate with his position, he openly entered and exited the office.

(There is no seal at the time, and the seal of the Marquis of Wu's family must be determined, and he will enter the court).

In fact, how could he not have known that this seal was useless for his work. But he didn't plan to use it in the first place, and he didn't need it, so he made a show

It's just a matter of seeing.

In any case, the establishment of the Genshi Dynasty had at least one advantage and one disadvantage, and it brought the coalition anti-reckless movement into a new stage.

This advantage is that the coalition forces conform to the laws of history and the voice of the masses, establish a regime opposed to the Xinmang Dynasty, and launch a Liu clanzong

The room is the emperor and successfully raised the banner of anti-recklessness and restoration of the Han Dynasty.

In any case, this is a formal integration of the coalition forces, and a call and encouragement to other anti-reckless forces.

This drawback is fatal to the coalition forces, that is, it has not gotten rid of the influence of the "bad money driving out good money" effect, and uses a small number of people to engage in conspiracy and trickery

The introduction of Liu Xuan, who did not have the qualities of an emperor at all, as the emperor exacerbated the contradictions within the coalition army, chilled the heroes of the world, and led to a large number of Liu Xiu and others.

The exodus of good money ultimately made it impossible for the regime to escape its fate of rapid demise.

Let's put it another way, the fatal mistake of the coalition forces is that they did not treat the important post of emperor correctly, not whether to establish an emperor, but who to appoint.

It is not necessary to put excellent emperor candidates like Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu, and to set up Liu Xuan, who can't get all the conditions.

Liu Xuan is not an ordinary puppet, in addition to the timidity and cowardice we introduced earlier, he is also a little clever and likes to play a little trick.

He is virtuous, talentless and greedy for enjoyment, short-sighted and uneasy about his position, just because he has a little blood of the Liu royal family, in a special historical article

and special conspiracy needs, was pushed to the position of a brother by others.

In this way, it is easier for him to finish a regime than other ordinary puppets.

Well, after the excitement, we still have to work.

At this time, the military deployment of the coalition forces was that the troops were divided into three routes.

All the way, Liu Xuan commanded the main force to desperately attack Wancheng.

Liu Xuan, you don't have emotions, obey the organization's arrangement, you can't engage in conspiracy and tricks, but you have to work hard to really work, especially to do rough talk.

Behave well, the organization still trusts you.

Besides, Wancheng is not only the political center of Nanyang County, but also the geographical location is also very important.

Liu Xuan not only has the talent of an emperor, but also a gentleman. You must know that in many cases, the emperor and the gentleman are not the same thing.

He now takes into account the overall situation, obeys the organizational arrangement, and leads the army to storm Wancheng.

At this time, the county magistrate Cen Peng in Wancheng continued to lead the army and civilians to defend the city to the death, and the battle was very fierce.

On the other hand, thousands of people were led by Wang Feng, Wang Chang, and Liu Xiu to the north and forced Kunyang (now Yexian County, Henan).

Liu Xiu's position is just a partial general, and he was appointed to lead the troops together with Wang Feng, the prince of Chengguo, and Wang Chang, the general, which shows that the people in power in the first regime are very practical, and he

We understand: Fighting a war is not flirting and scolding, and to really do it, you have to be a person like Liu Xiu with real skills!

The 3rd road took the original Pinglin soldiers as the main body and attacked Xinye in the south.

Everyone has seen it, no matter how the coalition forces play, they still have to rely on Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu brothers to do their work.

Who made us so good!
