The people of the earth abandoned Li Congwei, but there was one exception, this person was Wang Rong, Wang Rong was very grateful to Li Congwei for helping him repel Li Keyong, relieving his urgent need, and also lost the position of the envoy of Longlu Jiedu.

As the saying goes, the grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring, so when Li Congwei passed through Shenzhou, Wang Rong welcomed him to Zhao State, placed him in the plum garden, and treated Li Congwei like his dead father.

When things came to this, it should have ended with a happy reunion, Li Congwei had a good home, Wang Rong earned a good reputation, and everyone was happy. But Li Congwei had a subordinate named Li Zhengbao, seeing that Li Congwei always sighed about the loss of Youzhou, and seeing that Wang Rong was young and weak, he conspired with Li Congwei to seize the throne of Chengde Jiedu.

Li Congwei was moved, so he lied to the outside world that he was going to hold a worship on the death day, and Wang Rong went to his guards to pay respects to his guards in order to show filial piety.

When Wang Rong took his seat, Li Congwei's pre-arranged armor rushed out, kidnapped Wang Rong, and forced him to give way to Li Congwei.

Wang Rong said to Li Congwei respectfully, as always: "My country was invaded by Hedong, and it was all saved by your assistance. Now please return with me to the military palace so that I can announce to the generals that I will give way to you. "Lee Converse was impressed,

What a sensible boy! So he took Wang Rong back to the military mansion, and when he passed by the family camp, the Chengde soldiers shouted behind closed doors

, Instantaneous lightning and thunder, the wind howled, and a butcher named Mo Junhe recognized Wang Rong, jumped out of the ruins of the broken wall, and quickly pulled Wang Rong onto the war horse. Rushed away, and then the rebels went out. Kill Li Congwei and Li Zhenghu,

The Yandi soldiers brought by Li Congwei were also killed. Afterwards, Wang Rong rewarded Mo Junhe. Give a thousand gold, reward a mansion

, and gave him the opportunity to forgive ten capital crimes, and also conferred on him to the imperial court as the Guanglu doctor. The end of this story is,

The good guys ended up getting the good rewards, the bad guys were finally brought to justice, the tragedy of the farmer and the snake was not repeated, and later humans were told that good people had a future. There is no market for being a bad guy.

When Li Kuangchou heard the news, he immediately showed the deep friendship between the brothers. My eldest brother is also the one you can fight? It's okay for me to bully him, but it's not okay for others to bully. So the court requested to send troops to fight against Wang Rong and avenge his brother, but in the end he failed to get the permission of the court.

At this time, Liu Rengong Liu Dongtou was leading his soldiers to defend Ulzhou, and the rotation period had not yet returned to Youzhou, and the soldiers were anxious, so. Liu Rengong took the opportunity to launch a mutiny,

Led the troops to attack back to Youzhou City, this is a new version of Chen Shengwu Guangze Township Uprising! However, Liu Rengong was not as lucky as Chen Sheng. He was defeated by Li Kuangchou at Juyong Pass, and after the defeat, Liu Rengong fled to Hedong and took refuge with Li Keyong.

Li Kuangchou then sent troops to attack Chengde's Le Shou and Wu Qiang in the name of avenging his brother. After Liu Rengong arrived in Hedong. has been instigating Li Keyong to attack Youzhou, and Li Keyong is annoyed by his noise. Several times he asked him to lead troops to attack Youzhou, but he was defeated each time. Li Kuangchou took a look at Hedong's bear-like appearance. is triumphant,

It's not good to be bullish, it seems that Hedong is also famous, in fact, it's difficult to deputy, since you're not bullish, I'll let you see what the real looks like,

So he sent troops to attack Hedong, and his move provoked Li Keyong. In November 894, Li Ke attacked Li Kuangchou with a large force, captured Wuzhou, and besieged Xinzhou, and Li Kuangchou sent tens of thousands of cavalry to the rescue. In December, the soldiers of Xinzhou surrendered to Li Keyong,

Li Ke attacked Yanzhou with the attack. Li Kuangchou saw that the situation was not good, so he personally led the army from Juyong Pass to attack Li Keyong, Li Keyong sent troops to attack his abdomen and back, Li Kuangchou was defeated, fled to Cangzhou, and defected to Lu Yanwei, the envoy of Yichang Jiedu.

Lu Yanwei coveted Li Kuangchou's baggage and concubines, so he sent troops to take advantage of the fire to rob, and the two sides fought in Jingcheng.

Li Kuangchou was defeated and killed, and his men were annexed by Lu Yanwei. At the beginning, after Li Kuangchou seized the throne of Li Congwei, Li Congwei once said: "If my brother loses his brother's gain, he will not leave my house, so why hate it, but it is a pity that Kuangchou is short and cannot be conservative, and it will be two years old, fortunately." ”

From February 893, when Li Kuangchou captured Youzhou, to December 894, when he was defeated and killed,

In less than two years of reign, it really verified Li Congwei's prophecy, and also confirmed Zhang Jianzhang's prophecy that Li Quanzhong would only pass on three people in the three festivals.

The Li family was defeated, and there was nothing to do with them in Youzhou. In 895, Li Ke used Liu Rengong to stay behind Lu Long, and soon after, the Tang government posthumously recognized Liu Rengong as Lu Long's envoy.

After Liu Rengong became the envoy of Lu Longjie, he immediately betrayed his original master. In the fourth year of Qianning (897), Tang Zhaozong was held hostage in Huazhou by Han Jian, the envoy of Zhenguo Jiedu.

Li Ke wanted to go to King Qin and conscripted troops from Liu Rengong, Liu Rengong prevaricated for various reasons, Li Ke was furious and personally conquered Youzhou, but he returned defeated, and from then on, Liu Rengong completely got rid of the control of Hedong. In the fifth year of Qianning (898),

Liu Rengong sent his eldest son Liu Shouwen to attack Cangzhou, but Lu Yanwei couldn't resist it, so he abandoned the city and fled to Weibo with his family. Luo Hongxin refused to accept it, so he fled to Xuanwu, which was farther away.

This is the last record of him in the history books, and then the fate is unknown, so Liu Rengong ordered Liu Shouwen to be the envoy of the Yichang Festival. After that, Liu Rengong was full of spirits and went south to the Central Plains in 899, and was soon defeated by the combined forces of Zhu Wen and Luo Shaowei.

After that, Liu Rengong originated between Zhu Wen and Li Keyong, but with the expansion of Zhu Wen's power, only Li Keyong and Liu Rengong were left in North China to protect themselves. In the third year of Tianyou (906), Zhu Wen attacked Lu Long, and Liu Rengong was in danger.

asked Li Keyong for help, Li Keyong did not plan to send troops to rescue, but later, under the strong persuasion of Li Cunmiao, based on the truth that his lips were dead and his teeth were cold, he was rescued regardless of his previous suspicions.

As soon as Zhu Wen's danger was lifted, Liu Rengong began to be complacent again, arrogant and lascivious, and indulgent. After eating and drinking, he often felt that his Youzhou city was not strong enough, so he built a palace on Da'an Mountain in the west of the city, and its magnificence can almost be compared with the palace.

Place it in it, and refine the elixir with the Taoist priest in order to live forever. He also looted all the copper coins within the four realms. Buried on the top of Da'an Mountain. You're about to ask, and he collects the money. What should people do when they run out of money? It's easy to do.

So he asked the people to make money out of the soil. There is a country in the world called Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe has issued a new set of the world's largest denominations, including 10 trillion, 20 trillion, 50 trillion and 100 trillion Zimbabwe. So, in Zimbabwe, you often have to carry a sack of banknotes to buy bread.

In Youzhou City at that time, when buying things, I directly took a shovel, carried a kettle, and after arriving at the vegetable market, the site was constructed. And mud to make money, after it is done,

You can consume it on the spot. Liu Rengong also banned tea merchants in Jiangnan from entering the country to buy and sell, what should the people do if they want to drink tea? This is easy to do, so he sent people to collect the grass and trees in the mountains as tea, and then sold them to the common people.

Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, the son of a mouse can make holes, Liu Rengong is very fucked, but he has a son named Liu Shouguang who is even more fucked up than him. Liu Shouguang saw that his Laozi's concubine was very beautiful, so he became interested,

slept with Lao Tzu's concubine and his own mother, after Liu Rengong found out. Furious, he beat him and kicked him out, severing the father-son relationship. In the fourth year of Tianyu (907). Xuanwu general Li Si'an attacked Youzhou,

Whereabouts passed. Burn and loot. In April of that year, Li Si'an hit the city of Youzhou. At this time, Liu Rengong was in the annex of Da'an Mountain as a free immortal, there was almost no garrison in the city, and he almost fell, Liu Shouguang led his troops into the city from the outside to defend,

He went out of the city to fight with Li Si'an, Li Si'an was defeated and retreated, Liu Shouguang set himself up as the envoy of Jiedu, and ordered the generals Li Xiaoxi and Yuan Xingqin to lead the army to attack Da'an Mountain, Liu Rengong sent troops to resist, was defeated by Li Xiaoxi, was captured in Youzhou City, and was imprisoned in another room. It seems that Liu Rengong thought that the terrain of Da'an Mountain was dangerous, and it was just a legend to attack the crowd with outnumbered.

After Liu Rengong was imprisoned, all the cronies of the former generals and those who Liu Shouguang hated were killed. Liu Rengong's nephew Wang Sitong and son Liu Shouqi all defected to Li Keyong in Hedong.

Liu Shouguang did such a rebellious thing, which made his brother Liu Shouwen stationed in Cangzhou angry, Liu Shouwen gathered the soldiers and cried loudly: "Our parents have worked hard to raise us as adults, there is no merit and hard work, where is there a son who has imprisoned his father as an enemy since ancient times!"

Our family has this kind of evil obstacle, I really don't want to die! I swear to join you in the crusade against him. All the soldiers were also indignant and said that they would follow him to crusade against Liu Shouguang. Liu Shouwen sent troops to Youzhou to ask for guilt.

At this time, Luo Shaowei said to his subordinates: "Liu Shouguang is due to the urgency of the situation, so he surrendered to our Liang Dynasty, Liu Shouwen is isolated, I think Cangzhou can make them surrender without spending a single soldier." ”

He wrote a letter to Liu Shouwen to analyze the stakes with him, and Liu Shouwen was also afraid that the Liang Dynasty would take the opportunity to copy his back road, so he sent an envoy to the Liang Dynasty to ask for surrender and took his son Liu Yanyou as a hostage.

Liu Shouwen launched the Cangde army to attack Youzhou, Liu Shouguang asked the Jin State for help, and Li Cunqiao sent 5,000 troops to the rescue.

In the early days of the war, Liu Shouwen was not Liu Shouguang's opponent, and he lost the battle, so he had to spend a lot of money to invite Khitan and Tuyuhun to help, and Liu Shouguang couldn't support it immediately after the arrival of 40,000 reinforcements.

Liu Shouwen saw that he was about to win, so he came to the front of the battle alone, and shouted to the army with tears: "Don't kill my brother!" Seeing that Liu Shouwen was defenseless, Liu Shouguang's general Yuan Xingqin beat his horse and flew out of the battle.

rushed towards Liu Shouwen and captured him alive. Seeing this, Liu Shouguang's spirit was suddenly lifted, and he commanded his subordinates to defeat Liu Shouwen's army, and then held Liu Shouwen hostage to attack Cangzhou.

Cangzhou guards Lü Yan and Sun He supported Liu Shouwen's son Liu Yanzuo as the new leader, and led the soldiers to defend Cangzhou. Liu Shouguang besieged the city for a long time and couldn't take it, so he tied Liu Shouwen to the city and threatened them.

But the city remained unmoved. Cangzhou was besieged for a long time, the food ran out, the people had no food and had to eat mud to survive, while the soldiers began to eat people, donkeys and horses when they met, they tore each other's manes and tails.

Lu Yan selected a group of emaciated men and women, fed them noodles, and then killed them and cooked them to supply the troops, which was called slaughtering.

In the end, the city was really unable to defend, and Liu Yanzuo had to surrender. Now, Liu Shouwen has no use value, so Liu Shouguang brutally killed him, killed Lu Yan's entire clan, and released Sun He alone. and let his son Liu Jiwei guard Cangzhou.

Liu Jiwei was young and couldn't handle political affairs, so he let Zhang Wanjin assist him, but all major military and political matters were handled by Zhang Wanjin with full authority.

At this time, Liu Shouguang brought all places such as Youzhou and Cangzhou into his jurisdiction. Then began to implement a high-pressure policy to make the people and soldiers obey their orders.

In order to punish the prisoners, he creatively made iron cages and iron brushes, and if anyone committed a crime, he put them in the iron cage, and then lit a fire around them to roast the living.

He also ordered the prisoner's face and flesh to be brushed with an iron brush, and while brushing and singing, scrubbing. The people of Youzhou couldn't bear it anymore and fled one after another, and some even fled to the Khitan territory

In 910, Zhu Wen took advantage of Luo Shaowei's death to attack Zhenzhou, and Wang Rong sent envoys to Hedong and Youzhou for help. After the envoy arrived in Youzhou, Liu Shouguang was hunting, and his staff member Sun He ran to the field to report to him: "Zhao Guo has come to ask for help, this is God's intention to achieve the king's deed!" ”

Liu Shouguang asked lightly while hunting: "How do you say this?" Sun He replied: "Haven't we been worried about Wang Rong and Zhu Wen's deep friendship recently?

Zhu Wen is a very ambitious person, he will definitely not give up if he does not annex the entire Heshuo, and now they are hostile to each other, if we work together with Wang Rong to break the beam, are we still afraid that Zhen and Dingerzhou will not respectfully submit to us? If the king does not send his troops quickly,

I'm afraid that the Jin Congress will rush to seize this opportunity. Liu Shouguang said disapprovingly, as always: "Wang Rong has repeatedly betrayed his promise, this time it just happened for him to fight with Zhu Wen and lose both, we can sit and reap the benefits of fishing, why do we want to save him?" ”

Later, the army of the Liang Dynasty was defeated in Baixiang, and when Liu Shouguang heard about it, he sent someone to Wang Rong and Wang Zhizhi and said: "I heard that your two towns and the King of Jin jointly defeated the army of Liang, and now you are ready to lead your army south to continue the pursuit of victory.

I also have 30,000 elite horsemen here, and I want to lead them to fight the vanguard for you, but the troops of the four towns are united, and there must be an alliance leader to unify the command, assuming that I also participate in the war, how will you treat me? "The drunkard's intention is not to drink,

This clearly means that he is fighting to be the boss, and he also threatens to use force. Wang Rong was very uneasy after hearing this, and he didn't know how to deal with it, so he sent someone to tell Li Cunmiao, who smiled and said: "When the people of Zhao told him about it,

Liu Shouguang refused to send even a single rescuer, and now that we have won, he wants to use force to threaten the relationship between the two towns and us, which is really stupid! ”

The generals said: "Yunzhou, Daizhou and Yan are connected, if he intrudes on our border, this matter is enough to shake the hearts of the people in the country, if we go out thousands of miles, there is really no way to deal with him in an emergency.

This can really be said to be a problem for henchmen, it is better for us to destroy Liu Shouguang first, and then concentrate on the southern expedition. Li Cunmiao thought so, and since then he has set a strategic policy of first the north and then the south. (To be continued......)
