Chapter 70: The Nine Rivers Change
Zhang Er Chen regained the Wei State in the rest of Chen County, and the first to get the news was Jiujiang County, which was next to Chen County.
In the thirty-fourth year of the first emperor, Yingbu, who had led hundreds of thousands of Lishan prisoners to riot, was in Jiujiang at this time. The Lishan rebellion was quickly suppressed by the First Emperor, and Yingbu saw that the situation was not good, and fled with a group of thieves and bandits to the rivers and lakes in Jiujiang County to fish and hunt and become robbers.
Yingbu, a native of Liuxian (now Lu'an, Anhui). Because of the Qin law, it was also called the cloth. Torture, also known as ink punishment, is a punishment in which a prisoner's face is tattooed. Originally subordinate to Xiang Yu, he was one of the five generals under Xiang Yu's account, was named the king of Jiujiang, and later rebelled against Chu and returned to the Han Dynasty, and was named the king of Huainan by Liu Bang.
Yingbu, Han Xin, and Peng Yue are known as the three famous generals of the early Han Dynasty. In the eleventh year of the Han Dynasty (196 BC), Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, and Peng Yue, the king of Liang, were killed by the queen Lu Pheasant respectively.
When the news of the restoration of the Wei State reached Jiujiang County, Yingbu, who was leading the ordinary thieves and bandits to hide in the rivers and lakes at this moment, immediately realized that this was the most practical way out for himself and others, and a group of people under him also rose up to turn against Daqin.
Yingbu thought hard for a few days, and finally made up his mind to rebel, but Yingbu still felt that these people in his hands alone could not achieve a big deal, so he simply set his sights on Wu Rui, who was also extremely opposed to the harsh government of Great Qin.
After the first emperor unified the six countries, he implemented the county system throughout the country. In the second lunar month of 210 BC, the first emperor adopted the advice of Li Si, the prime minister of Zuo, in order to stabilize the situation in the south and prevent the Baiyue region from rebelling against Qin, set up Poyang County, and named Wu Rui as the first county commander to manage the Baiyue region (the southernmost part of the jurisdiction has reached Vietnam), and the imperial court did not give any financial support, and he did not need to pay tribute to the imperial court.
Wu Rui, the fifth grandson of Wu Wangfucha of Wu State during the Spring and Autumn Period, his father Wu Shen was the late Chu Da Sima. Wu Rui served as the commander of Poyang County (also known as Fanxian County), benevolent governance, light and meager endowment, paid attention to compassion for the people, won the hearts of the people, and was respected as "Fanjun" by the people of Baiyue (with Poyang as the center, east to western Zhejiang, west to Guangxi, south to Vietnam, and north to the south bank of the Yangtze River).
Wu Rui was the first official of the Qin Dynasty to openly raise troops against Qin in the original history. He was named the king of Hengshan by Xiang Yu, Wu Rui and Liu Bang's strategist Zhang Liang had a good personal relationship, and then attached the Han Dynasty to Chu and was named the king of Changsha in the Western Han Dynasty.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang crowned a total of 8 kings with different surnames, and 7 kings were forced to kill by Liu Bang, but Wu's Changsha Kingdom has been fine, a total of 5 generations, and ended without heirs.
It was a dark night.
The weather in the south was already very hot at the moment, and Wu Rui was walking around the bedroom irritably in a single dress.
"Master, someone is asking to see you!"
A subordinate voice sounded outside the house.
"Who wants to see you?" Wu Rui stopped and asked suspiciously.
"It's the cloth of the lake." The servant replied.
"Dark?" Wu Rui was very surprised when he heard the words of his subordinates. is no stranger to Wu Rui, to be precise, the two are still very familiar.
Di Bu fled to the big lake swamp around Poyang Lake to fish and hunt for a living, of course, he must be a robber, and Wu Rui has always loved the people like a son, although it is only a county order, but the land under the jurisdiction of Poyang County is extremely vast, and naturally it is indispensable to deal with Di Bu and others.
Although Wu Rui is an official of the Great Qin, and Tu Bu is a criminal wanted by the Great Qin with a bounty, Wu Rui does not have much ill will towards Di Bu, and it can even be said that he still has a good impression, so after Di Bu and the others did one or two jobs, Wu Rui quickly sent someone to find them.
Duo Bu was very jealous of Wu Rui, who was respected as "Fanjun" by the people of Baiyue, and he knew very well that if he offended Wu Rui, then he and others would only die. And Wu Rui did not send troops to arrest them after learning what happened to Duo Bu and others, but reached an agreement with them.
From then on, Duo Bu and the others no longer robbed the ordinary people in the Poyang area, and Wu Rui would also help them from time to time. After going back and forth, the two are already very familiar.
"Invite him into the church, and wait for him! I'll be there then. Although he couldn't understand why Duo Bu came to him at night, Wu Rui still quickly ordered his subordinates.
"Whoa!" The subordinate answered the order and withdrew.
After a while, Wu Rui, who was dressed again, arrived in the lobby.
Sitting in the lobby waiting, Di Bu saw Wu Rui coming out of the inner hall, hurriedly got up and bowed and said, "Bu has seen Fanjun!" ”
"Strong men don't have to be polite, I don't know what to do with visiting the place late at night!" Wu Rui asked straight to the point with a bowful salute.
Duo Bu was slightly stunned when he heard Wu Rui's words, he originally wanted to set Wu Rui's tone first, and then make a decision, he was also afraid that if Wu Rui was unwilling to rebel, then he would send sheep into the tiger's mouth.
At this moment, seeing Wu Rui being so direct, Duo Bu raised his eyes to look at the maids waiting in the hall, and then looked at Wu Rui again. Obviously, it was for Wu Rui to retreat his subordinates, so that he could say what he meant.
Wu Rui was even more surprised when he saw this, and waved his hand: "Wait for you to retreat, you can't enter the hall without being summoned!" He wasn't worried that the cloth would be bad for him when there was no one in the hall.
"Whoa!"
After everyone withdrew, Wu Rui raised his hand and motioned for Duo Bu to sit down and speak.
"I don't know if Fanjun knows about the restoration of the Wei State?" He asked, sitting cross-legged.
"Oh? The strong man also knows about this? Wu Rui's eyes flashed and he asked.
"Chen County is close to Jiujiang, how can people like us not know about it." Tuobu snorted.
"If the strong man came late at night just to inform him of this, the old man who was the heart of the country would be very admirable. However, the old man knew about this at noon! Wu Rui also said with a haha.
When Di Bu heard Wu Rui's words, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and the black characters on his face turned blood red.
"A certain heart for the country? Fanjun walked away. Bu can't wait for this violent Qin to destroy the country immediately, how can he have the heart to serve the country. Bu Jin said that when he saw Fanjun, he asked Fanjun to climb high and raise the banner and lead me hundreds of people to rise up against Qin. I would like to ask you to complete it. ”
He got up and knelt on the ground, and said loudly and excitedly.
To the surprise of Tu Bu, Wu Rui did not angrily beckon his subordinates to rush in and tie himself up directly, but just sat quietly and looked at Tu Bu who was kneeling on the ground, but the more and more anxious the pu fan in his hand showed that his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
In fact, before Duo Bu came, the reason why Wu Rui was anxiously circling in the room was precisely because of the news of the restoration of the Wei State.
During the lifetime of the First Emperor, the large-scale infrastructure construction across the country had exhausted all the people of Great Qin, and everyone was expecting the second emperor to succeed to the throne and make changes to the people.
But what everyone was waiting for was Hu Hai's larger-scale conscription of the people to repair the Lishan mausoleum, the Lishan palace, and more exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and Wu Rui was thinking about the anti-Qin issue from then on.
Of course, at this moment, Jiujiang and other counties have not yet received Hu Hai's three edicts.
He believed that the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, who had been ready to move since the time of the First Emperor, would not let go of such a great opportunity after receiving the news of the restoration of Wei, and more people would inevitably stand up against Qin in a short period of time.
Where do I go from here? That's what he's been hesitating about before.
Now Di Bu's words made the anti-Qin idea in his heart even stronger, Di Bu is just a prisoner, and now the prisoners are all anti-Qin, if you add the hidden power of the huge remnants of the Six Kingdoms, then the overthrow of Great Qin may only be an overnight moment.
"Fanjun, Bu Su Zhijun loves the people like a son, but now for hundreds of hundreds of people, Bu implores Fanjun to invite from us. Anti-tyrannical Qin to the people of the whole world. I wish to be the pioneer of Fanjun! Seeing that Wu Rui was silent for a long time, Tu Bu hurriedly persuaded.
Wu Rui was very aware of the combat effectiveness of a gang of thieves such as Dubu, and he was reluctant to arrest him before but made friends, precisely for this reason. At this moment, when he heard that he was willing to recognize himself as the master and act as a pioneer, he completely let go of the worries in his heart.
He believed that with his prestige in Baiyue, as long as he ascended to the heights, countless people would definitely flock to him, and what he lacked was a general who could fight well. What's more, as the son and grandson of the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, how could he not have the ambition to compete in the world?
"Good!" Wu Rui slammed the fan on the desk, got up and went down to the hall to support the priest,
"Since the strong man has this heart, how can Rui ignore the suffering of the people. I wonder if a strong man has ever married a wife? ”
When Di Bu heard Wu Rui agree to oppose Qin, he stood up happily and said, "Fanjun is really a masterpiece!" Boo hasn't married yet? ”
"Rui is willing to marry the little girl to a strong man, I don't know if the strong man is willing?"
Di Bu didn't expect Wu Rui to marry his daughter to such an exiled prisoner as himself, and when he heard Wu Rui's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then reacted very simply, knelt on the ground again, kowtowed, and said, "Bu Bai to see Lord Yue!" ”
"Haha! Good! From now on, we will be a family. Wu Rui laughed happily and picked up the cloth.
Then the two of them burst out laughing at the same time.
Since he had already married his daughter to Dubu, he was much more affectionate when the two of them laughed and sat down again.
"Ming said that it is a good minister, and he can marry and raise troops. It is better to marry first, and immediately after the little girl and the virtuous son-in-law get married, they will immediately tell the heavens and the earth to raise an army against Qin. Double happiness is the same as great goodness! What does the virtuous son-in-law think? Wu Rui said.
"Obey the orders of Lord Yue!" The cloth is also a person who climbs up the pole.
"Haha! Great goodness! Ming said that he would raise a big event against the tyranny of Qin! ”
