Chapter 52 [Great Liang Empire]

In February 926, Wei Bo commanded Yang Renhui to lead the troops who had been guarding Waqiao for more than a year to change their defenses, and when they came to Beizhou, Li Cunqiao thought that Yedu was empty and was worried that the army would come back and cause chaos, so he ordered them to garrison Beizhou on the spot.

Yang Renhui has a subordinate named Huang Fuhui, who gambled with his friends at night and lost, and he was very unhappy. He threatened Yang Renhui and said: "The Lord is able to occupy the world, all because of the strength of our Wei army.

The soldiers of the Wei army have not taken off their armor and unsaddled for more than ten years, and now that the world is calm, the Son of Heaven not only does not remember our past achievements, but is even more suspicious of us.

We had been in the middle of nowhere, for more than a year, and we had just happily changed back, close to home, but we were not allowed to see our families.

Now that I have heard that the empress has killed the emperor and that the capital is in turmoil, the soldiers want to go back with you and ask you to bring the matter to the court.

If the Son of Heaven is fortunate not to die, and he raises an army against us, and with our Wei Bo's strength is enough to resist them, how can we know that this is not an opportunity to regain wealth? Yang Renhui didn't obey, and Huang Fuhui killed him very simply.

Huang Fuhui threatened a small school again, and the small school swore not to obey his orders, and Huang Fuhui killed the small school without saying a word.

Zhao Zaili, the commander of Xiaojie, heard that there was a change in the army, and he didn't wear clothes, so he escaped over the wall with his bare buttocks, but the escape from the prison was unsuccessful, and he was discovered by Huang Fuhui, who grabbed his feet and dragged him off the wall, and then showed him the heads of Yang Renhui and the little school: Zhao Ye, the chicken has been killed, you can do it yourself, do you want to be a monkey or the next chicken.

Zhao Zaili didn't say a word, and he obeyed very quickly.

Here is a brief introduction to Cho Jae-li. In Chinese history, this is definitely a wonderful flower. Zhao Zaili, the word Ganchen, a native of Zhuozhou.

At first, he served under Liu Rengong's account and served as a small school, in the last years of Guanghua of Tang Zhaozong. Liu Rengong sent his son Liu Shouwen to expel Lu Yanwei, the envoy of Yichang Jiedu, occupy Yichang, and promoted Zhao Zaili to the rank of military envoy to assist Liu Shouwen.

After Liu Shouwen's death, Zhao Zaili served his son Liu Yanzuo again. After Liu Yanzuo was killed by Liu Shouguang, Liu Shouguang's son Liu Jiwei succeeded Yichangliu, and he served Liu Jiwei again, and after Liu Jiwei was killed by the general Zhang Wanjin, Zhao Zaili served Zhang Wanjin again. After Zhang Wanjin defected to Zhu Wen. Zhao Zaili stayed with Cangzhou, and Mao Zhang returned to Hedong.

Later, Zhao Zaili returned to the later Later Jin. In Chinese, the term "thorn in the eye" is often used as a metaphor for the person who is most hated and disgusted in the mind. The birth of this word, Zhao Zaili contributed a lot.

Later, Zhao Zaili became the envoy of the Songzhou Festival, and during his tenure, he was corrupt and perverted the law, and the people were prey, causing the local people to be oppressed, complained, and angry, and hated Zhao Zaili very much. Soon. Zhao Zaili was transferred, and the people of the state celebrated with their hands. It is said that "the thorn in the eye is pulled, how happy it is"!

When Zhao Zaili heard about it, he was quite angry, you are slandering, insulting, and slandering. slandered, so he begged the emperor to let him stay in office for another year.

After "returning to his hometown", Zhao Zaili became even more crazy, and openly ordered each person in the jurisdiction to pay a poll tax of 1,000 yuan, which was called "nail money". At that time, he included one million in his pocket, of course, this is a later story.

The book returned to the main story, opened the bow and did not turn back, and Zhao Zaili, who was forced to go to Liangshan, led the rebels to loot Beizhou. The next day, the rebels continued south, heading straight for Linqing, Yongji, and Guantao, and all the places they passed were looted.

On the evening of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, someone came from Beizhou to report that the rebel army would invade Yedu. At that time, Yedu stayed behind as Wang Zhengyan and Shi Yanqiong as the Wude envoy, but the political affairs of the six states of Weibo were all handled by Shi Yanqiong. Sun Duo and others hurriedly found Shi Yanqiong and asked for weapons to be granted to defend the city.

Shi Yanqiong suspected that they had other ideas, so she said unhurriedly: "The person who reported said that the thieves arrived in Linqing today, and according to the mileage, they could only arrive here on the evening of the sixth day, and it was not too late to take precautions then." ”

Sun Duo said: "Since the thieves have rebelled, they will definitely take advantage of our defenseless time to travel day and night, how can you go according to the mileage you set?"

I am willing to recruit a thousand elite soldiers to ambush them on the banks of the Wang Mang River, and the thieves will be defeated by us, and they will definitely scatter and escape, and then we can attack them in an all-round way.

If you have to wait for them to come to the city before taking precautions, it will be dangerous if there is a traitor who joins them inside and outside. Shi Yanqiong said: "As long as the soldiers defend the city, why go out to meet the battle?" That night, the vanguard of the rebel army attacked the north gate of Yecheng, and the bows and crossbows were fired in unison.

At that time, Shi Yanqiong was leading his troops in the North Gate Tower, and when he heard the shouts of the rebel army, he was frightened stupid, and then fled back to Luoyang single-handedly. On the fifth day of the first month, the rebel army entered Yedu, Sun Duo and others struggled to resist and could not win, so they all scattered and fled.

After Zhao Zaili occupied the palace city, he arranged for Huang Fuhui and Zhao Jin of the military academy to be the commanders of Ma Budu, and indulged the soldiers to loot.

At that time, Wang Zhengyan was about to summon the officials to draft the recital, but no one came for a long time, Wang Zhengyan was very angry, and then his family said to him: "The thieves have entered the city, killing and robbing in the market, and the officials have fled, who else do you call?" Wang Zhengyan was surprised: "I never knew about this situation. ”

He asked for horses to be prepared for escape, but did not get them. So he led the officials to go out of the palace to meet Zhao Zaili and ask him for his guilt. At this time, Zhao Zaili didn't want to rebel, he just wanted to take the soldiers home to guard his wife and children.

So he also bowed back to them: "It's just that the soldiers want to go home, and don't grovel to yourself!" Then he comforted them and sent them back.

Death and national destruction

At that time, the people in the market did not know about Guo Chongtao's tragic experience, and folk rumors said that Guo Chongtao killed Li Jiqi and claimed the king in Shu, so the emperor ordered his entire family to be killed. Zhu Youqian's son Zhu Jianhui was the assassin of Lanzhou, and Li Cunqiao secretly ordered Shi Yanqiong, the superintendent of Yedu, to kill him.

The people guarding the city gate said to Wang Zhengyan, who stayed behind: "Shi Yanqiong rode out of the city in the middle of the night, and he didn't say where he was going. ”

There is also a rumor: "The queen blamed the emperor for Li Jiqi's death, and she had murdered her husband and killed the emperor, so she hurriedly summoned Shi Yanqiong to discuss countermeasures." ”

In short, various versions of gossip that are more unreliable than the Global Daily are circulating within the empire, and there is a hint of nervousness, uneasiness, and panic in the air.

February 926. Wei Bo commanded Yang Renhui to lead the troops who had been guarding Waqiao for more than a year to change their defenses and come back, and when they came to Beizhou, Li Cunqiao thought that Yedu was empty and was worried that the army would come back and cause chaos, so he ordered them to be stationed in Beizhou on the spot.

Yang Renhui had a subordinate named Huang Fuhui, who gambled with friends at night and lost the gambling. I was very unhappy in my heart, it was normal to lose money, scold people, roll and chop my fingers, but this brother was even more angry, pulled out his waist knife, and directly rebelled with his brothers. He threatened Yang Renhui and said: "The Lord is able to occupy the world, all because of the strength of our Wei army.

The soldiers of the Wei army have not taken off their armor and unsaddled for more than ten years, and now that the world is calm, the Son of Heaven not only does not remember our past achievements, but is even more suspicious of us.

We have been in remote places for more than a year. We just happily changed back, and we were already close to home, but we were not allowed to see our families.

Now that I have heard that the empress has killed the emperor and that the capital is in turmoil, the soldiers want to go back with you and ask you to bring the matter to the court.

If the Son of Heaven is fortunate not to die, and he raises an army against us, our Wei Bo's forces will be enough to resist them. How can one know that this is not an opportunity to regain wealth? Yang Renhui didn't obey, and Huang Fuhui killed him very simply.

Huang Fuhui threatened a small school again. The little school also swore to obey his fate, and Huang Fuhui killed the little school without saying a word.

Zhao Zaili, the commander of Xiaojie, heard that there was a change in the army, and he didn't wear clothes, so he escaped over the wall with his bare buttocks, but the escape from prison was unsuccessful and was discovered by Huang Fuhui. Grabbed his feet and dragged him off the wall, and then showed him the heads of Yang Renhui and the little school: Zhao Ye, the chicken has been killed, you can do it yourself, whether you want to be a monkey or the next chicken.

Zhao Zaili didn't say a word. It's refreshingly obedient. Here is a brief introduction to Zhao Zaili, which is definitely a wonderful flower in Chinese history.

Zhao Zaili, the word Ganchen, a native of Zhuozhou. In the last years of Guanghua of Tang Zhaozong, Liu Rengong sent his son Liu Shouwen to expel Lu Yanwei, the envoy of Yichang Festival, occupy Yichang, and promoted Zhao Zaili to the military envoy to assist Liu Shouwen.

After Zhang Wanjin defected to Zhu Wen, Zhao Zaili and Mao Zhang, who stayed in Cangzhou, returned to Hedong.

Later, Zhao Zaili returned to the later Later Jin. In Chinese, the term "thorn in the eye" is often used as a metaphor for the person who is most hated and disgusted in the mind. The birth of this word, Zhao Zaili contributed a lot.

Later, Zhao Zaili became the envoy of the Songzhou Festival, and during his tenure, he was corrupt and perverted the law, and the people were prey, causing the local people to be oppressed, complained, and angry, and hated Zhao Zaili very much. Soon, Zhao Zaili was transferred, and the people of the state celebrated with their foreheads, saying "Wouldn't you be happy if you have a thorn in your eye"!

When Zhao Zaili heard this, he was quite angry, you are slandering, insulting, slandering, slandering, so he asked the emperor to let him stay in office for another year.

After "returning to his hometown", Zhao Zaili was even more crazy, and openly ordered each person in the jurisdiction to pay a poll tax of 1,000 yuan, which was called "nail money", including 1 million money that year, and he was in his pocket.

The book returned to the main story, opened the bow and did not turn back, and Zhao Zaili, who was forced to go to Liangshan, led the rebels to loot Beizhou. The next day, the rebels continued south, heading straight for Linqing, Yongji, and Guantao, and all the places they passed were looted.

If you have to wait for them to come to the city before taking precautions, it will be dangerous if there is a traitor who joins them inside and outside. ”

Shi Yanqiong said: "As long as the soldiers are strictly guarding the city, why go out to meet the battle? That night, the vanguard of the rebel army attacked the north gate of Yecheng, and the bows and crossbows were fired in unison.

At that time, Shi Yanqiong was leading his troops in the North Gate Tower, and when he heard the shouts of the rebel army, he was frightened stupid, and then fled back to Luoyang single-handedly.

So he also bowed back to them: "It's just that the soldiers want to go home, and don't grovel to yourself!" Then he comforted them and sent them back.

Officials, although they are also very greedy, will definitely do things when they take money, and in China, they often meet masters who take money and do not do things.

Overseas Chinese lamented that the professional ethics of corrupt officials in China are too poor and they have no integrity. In fact, this statement is still very one-sided, he is only talking about the current situation, in ancient times, the professional ethics of our corrupt officials are still very commendable.

At that time, Li Cunqiao asked the privy envoy Li Shaohong who could take command of the expedition, Li Shaohong was a competent corrupt official, taking people's money, eliminating disasters for others, accepting bribes once, serving for life, and once again very resolutely and resolutely asked for the appointment of Li Shaoqin (Duan Ning).

Li Cunqiao agreed to his request and ordered Li Shaoqin to present his counterinsurgency strategy.

Li Shaoqin offered a plan, but the people he asked to use were all old generals of the Later Liang Dynasty, and his former confidants, Li Cunqiao was very suspicious of this, so his appointment was abandoned.

At this time, Empress Liu said: "For such a small matter, there is no need to trouble the general, and Li Shaorong can be dispatched." ”

So Li Cunqiao ordered Li Shaorong (Yuan Xingqin) to lead 3,000 cavalry to Yedu to recruit Zhao Zaili, and at the same time collect troops from all walks of life in case of contingencies. (To be continued......)
