Chapter 39 [Great Liang Empire]

Duan Ning and Du Yanqiu suggested: "Zhao Yan, Zhao Hu, Zhang Xiyi, Zhang Hanlun, Zhang Hanjie, Zhang Hanrong, Zhu Qi and others, who are important figures in the pseudo-Liang, steal power for power and make fortune, and brutalize the ministers and people, and they must be killed. Li Cunqiao then issued an edict: "Jing Xiang and Li Zhen took the lead to assist Zhu Wen, and jointly overthrew the Tang Dynasty's Sheji, and the Khitan Sara Abba betrayed his brother, abandoned his mother, and failed the great favor of the country.

The rest of the civil and military generals will not be held accountable. He also issued an edict to abolish Zhu Wen and Zhu Youzhen as concubines, and destroyed the temple gods of Liang State.

And Duan Ning did not stay at ease for long in the Later Tang Dynasty, and soon after, the Tang court exiled him first and then executed him.

Let's talk about the endings of some old acquaintances:

After Zhu Wen became emperor, he arranged an idle job for him because of Ge Congzhou's illness for a long time, and Ge Congzhou suffered a stroke and went to a villa in Yanshi Haoyi Township to recuperate. Soon after Zhu Youzhen ascended the throne, Ge Congzhou died of illness.

Kang Huaiying was appointed as the envoy of the Yongping Army in 913 and died in office.

In the first year of Kaiping, Li Si'an led a large army to attack Youzhou, camped in the Sangqian River, Jiedu made Liu Rengong know that the people came to fight, Li Si'an ordered the general Yuan Xiang to ambush the valley first, and led the old and weak to attack, Liu Rengong attacked lightly, Li Si'an sent an ambush attack, defeated, beheaded his general, and captured a lot of people, but when he returned to the army, he attacked Luzhou by the way, and the soldiers fled for many months.

Zhu Wen was furious and took away his official title, but soon let him lead his troops again.

And said: "Li Si'an is the enemy and resolute, there is no one who is the right, but every time I meet the choice of materials, I will use it, then the news of defeat will come, if it is two or three, then I know that the number of flying will be strange." What a lie in the past! ”

In the first year of Qianhua, Li Si'an served as the assassin of Xiangzhou, and he thought that he had no ambition and no mental politics, which led to the barren walls in the territory and the exhaustion of the palace. Zhu Wen was furious when he heard the news, and belittled Li Si'an as the head of Liuzhou, and soon gave him death in Xiangzhou.

In 909, Liu Zhijun rebelled according to Tongzhou, sent money to Li Maozhen, divided his troops to attack Yongzhou and Huazhou, and captured Liu Han, the envoy of Yongzhou Jiedu. Zhu Wen heard that Liu Zhijun had betrayed him, and ordered Liu Jun to lead his troops to conquer Tongguan. Liu Zhijun knew that he was invincible, and he ran to Fengxiang.

Because of Liu Zhijun's bravery, Li Maozhen named him the captain of the school and the Zhongshu order, and ordered him to lead his troops to attack Lingwu. After Liu Zhijun's defeat, Kang Huaizhen, a famous general of Liang, was crowned as the envoy of the Jingzhou Changyi Army.

In the first year of Qianhua (911), Li Maozhen ordered Liu Zhijun to lead an army to fight against the former Shu Wangjian, attack Xingyuan, and besiege Xi County. The Shu army came to the rescue, and Liu Zhijun retreated. Then. Li Maozhen's left and right hated Liu Zhijun's exploits and slandered him, Liu Zhijun was afraid of punishment, and defected to Wang Jian.

However, Wang Jian's subordinate generals were also jealous of Liu Zhijun; Although Wang Jian himself treats Liu Zhijun favorably on the surface, he is actually jealous of his bravery. He once said to his attendants: "I am gradually declining, and I am thinking about my back." Liu Zhijun can control it, so it is better to do it early. In December of the first year of the Former Shu Tianhan Dynasty (917), Wang Jian sent people to arrest Liu Zhijun and beheaded him in Chengdu's Tan City.

Youzhou grievances

Ever thought about it. What will you say one day when you are about to leave this world? Haven't figured it out yet? Well, let's take a look at the last words of those celebrities:

Hai Rui, before his death, was a member of the second rank of the imperial court, it was winter, the military department sent charcoal fire, Hai Rui found that there were more than 5 yuan of silver after careful inspection, so he said to the servant: "Tomorrow, send the extra silver back to the military department." ”

Before being beheaded, Jin Shengxi said to his son: "Remember, when you eat peanuts with dried tofu, you can chew the taste of ham." ”

Mary? When Queen Antoinette stepped on the executioner while guillotine, she said apologetically, "Forgive me, sir." I didn't do it on purpose. ”

On his deathbed, Voltaire's pastor asked him to disown Satan, saying, "Now, now, my good brother, I don't have time to make any more enemies." ”

Beethoven, who suffered from deafness for more than 20 years, died saying, "I will hear everything in heaven." ”

When Marx was dying, his housekeeper asked him if he had any last words to confess, and he said: "Go away, go out, and the fool who thinks he hasn't said enough will leave his last words." ”

SOCRATES: "Clitton, I owe Asclebios a chicken, please don't forget to give it back to him." ”

Jesus: "It is done." ("Igotit" can also be translated as "done")

The famous French grammar scholar Dominique? Bochs: "I'm going to — or I'm going to — die, and both of these expressions are true. ”

Mark. Twain: "Goodbye, we'll meet again soon!"

Albert Einstein: "I come from the future. ”

The great god of war Li Keyong groped in the quilt for a long time when he was dying, and his son Li Cunqiao looked at him anxiously, thinking that he was looking for something like a passbook or treasure map, for fear that he would not be able to breathe, thus cutting off the possibility of finding the treasure, but,

In the end, Li Keyong did not take out the treasure map, but took out three arrows and handed them to him: "Liang Guo is my enemy; King Yan is established with my support; The Khitan and I became brothers, but they both betrayed Jin and returned to Liang.

These three things are the hatred I left behind, give you three arrows, and you must not forget your father's last wish. And with that, he died of hatred.

When Wen Qiang, the former director of the Chongqing Public Security Bureau, died, he said to his son Wen Jiahao: "Take care of your body, and when my mother goes to prison, I must visit her often." Don't hate society, don't be influenced by my affairs, don't hate others. Get a job, do something on your own, get married and have children early, and take care of your mother. ”

Emotionally speaking, Wen Qiang is a good father. When it came time to die, all he thought about was how to let the child live a good life without being affected.

In comparison, Li Keyong is much worse, he leaves hatred to the next generation, so that the next generation can continue to live in a world of hatred.

Li Cunqiao took the arrow and enshrined it in the ancestral temple. Since then, he has taken his father's last wish as his goal. For the full value of his survival, every time he sent troops, he would send officials to sacrifice one pig, one cow, and one sheep to the ancestral temple.

Please take these three arrows given by your father, hold them in a brocade bag, carry them on your back and walk in front of the procession, and wait until the team is victorious before inviting the magic arrows into the ancestral temple. Li Cunmiao's first target was Liu Rengong, the envoy of Yanwang Youzhou.

As for the deep hatred between Li Keyong and Liu Rengong, it has to start from a long, long, long time ago.

During the Tianbao period, Tang Xuanzong set up the Tianbao Ten Sections to manage the border land. The ten festival envoys are: Fanyang Jiedu Envoy, Pinglu Jiedu Envoy, Hedong Jiedu Envoy, Shuofang Jiedu Envoy, Hexi Jiedu Envoy, Anxi Jiedu Envoy, Beiting Jiedu Envoy, Longyou Jiedu Envoy, Jiannan Jiedu Envoy, and Lingnan Wufu Jingluo Envoy.

Among them, the Pinglu Jiedu made the town of Fu Muwei and Yan Yan, and governed Yingzhou (Liucheng County. present-day Chaoyang, Liaoning); Hedong Jiedu envoy defended against the Turks and ruled Taiyuan (now Jinyuan Town, southwest of Taiyuan, Shanxi); Shuofang Jiedu envoy defended the Turks and ruled Lingzhou (Lingwu County, now southwest of Lingwu, Ningxia);

Hexi Jiedu made it to cut off Tubo and Turkic, and governed Liangzhou (Wuwei County, now Wuwei, Gansu); Anxi Jiedu Envoy, also known as the Four Towns Jiedu Envoy, Anxi Four Towns Jiedu Envoy, Funing Western Regions. Zhiqiuzi (now Kuqa, Xinjiang);

The North Courtyard Festival is used to prevent the sudden riding and Jiankun. Zhibei Ting Duhufu (Zhiting Prefecture, now Jimusar North Pochengzi, Xinjiang); Longyou Jiedu made the preparation of Tubo, and governed Shanzhou (Xiping County, now Ledu, Qinghai); Jiannan Jiedu made the west resist Tibet, the south soothed the barbarians, and governed Yizhou (Shu County. present-day Chengdu, Sichuan);

The five prefectures of Lingnan were envoys to Sui Jing Yi and govern Guangzhou (Nanhai County, now Guangzhou, Guangdong); And the Fanyang Jiedu envoy here, that is, the Youzhou Jiedu envoy we are going to talk about, is responsible for defending Xi and Khitan. It governs Youzhou, Jizhou, Fuzhou, Danzhou, Yizhou, Dingzhou, Hengzhou, Mozhou, and Cangzhou 9 prefectures.

Youzhou is now the imperial capital of Beijing, of course, at that time Youzhou was far less prosperous than the current imperial capital, so many people, so congested, so high housing prices, but at that time, its strategic location was also quite important.

Because of the border with the outside of the Sai, often at war with the Khitan in the north, so the soldiers of Youzhou are also good at riding and shooting, with a strong personality, a personality like a fire, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu are not in their eyes, and they have been dealing with barbarians for a long time, and they themselves have become barbarians.

At that time, Fan Yang Jiedu envoy, but also concurrently served as Pinglu Jiedu envoy and Hedong Jiedu envoy, he calculated that he had nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and the forbidden army of the imperial court was only 100,000, so Yuyang drums sounded, and the army rebelled.

Presumably everyone guessed that the person who rebelled was An Lushan, and the history of this rebellion is called the Anshi Rebellion. After the end of the rebellion, the imperial court changed the Fanyang Festival Envoy to the Youzhou Jie Envoy, and because he led the Lu Long Army, it was also called the Lu Long Jie Envoy.

In the first year of Guangde (763), Shi Siming surrendered Li Huaixian to the imperial court, and the imperial court appointed Li Huaixian as the envoy of the Lulong Festival in order to encircle the old Hebei department. During the rebellion of the four towns in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Tao of Youzhou proclaimed himself the king of Ji.

In the fourteenth year of Yuanhe (819), Lu Longjiedu made Liu Zong's submission, and Yuanhe Zhongxing reached its peak. Two years later, the imperial court appointed Zhang Hongjing, a civil official, as the envoy of the Lu Long Festival, but due to improper disposal, the post of the Lu Long Festival envoy was held by the military generals until the fall of the Tang Dynasty.

In 845, when Zhang Zhongwu, the then envoy of Lu Longjiedu, led a large army to break through the Uighurs, Li Maoxun, a Uighur from the Absi tribe, led the people to surrender.

In 849, Zhang Zhongwu died of illness, and his son Zhang Zhifang succeeded him, but because of his addiction to alcohol, he cruelly abused the soldiers, and was not tolerated by the troops.

In the following year, Zhou Qi died of illness, and the general Zhang Yunshen succeeded him, and in 872, Zhang Yunshen also died of illness, and his son succeeded to the throne.

Zhang Gongsu was brutal and rude, and often showed people with the whites of his eyes, and people called him "white-eyed Xianggong". The soldiers hated him very much, and hoped that Chen Gongyan would take over them.

At this time, Li Maoxun attacked and killed Chen Gongyan, seized his army, and then marched to Youzhou, claiming to be sent by Chen Gongyan, and attacked Zhang Gongsu.

Zhang Gongsu met the battle, was defeated, and fled to Chang'an. Li Maoxun entered Youzhou, and then people found out that he was not sent by Chen Gongyan, but the wood had been completed, and the raw rice had been made into popcorn, so people could only accept the reality and support him as the envoy of the festival.

In 876, Li Maoxun fell ill and wrote to his son Li Keju to act as Lu Longjie's envoy, and he retreated to the second line. Soon, Li Guochang and his son became bigger, Li Keju and Tugu Hun Du Governor Helian Duo, Zhenzhou Wang Rong Lianhe defeated Li Guochang, and Li Guochang and his son defected to Tatar.

In 885, Li Keju sent the general Li Quanzhong to lead an army of 60,000 to attack Yizhou under the jurisdiction of the Yiwu Jiedu envoy (also known as the Yiding Jiedu envoy), and Liu Rengong dug a tunnel to conquer Yizhou, so he was called "Liu Gutou" in the army.

Soon after, the Youzhou army was defeated by Li Keyong, and Yiwu Jiedu made Wang Chucun take advantage of the situation to counterattack, and attacked Yizhou with 3,000 elite soldiers. After this battle, Li Quanzhong was very worried,

I was afraid that the boss would kill him in anger when I went back, but I turned my head and thought: I'm so stupid, if I kill the boss, then I don't have to worry about being killed by the boss.

So gather the remnants of the defeated generals and counterattack Youzhou, Li Keju was caught off guard, unable to resist, and led the whole clan to self-immolate and die, so Li Quanzhong appointed himself as the envoy of Youzhou Festival.

Li Quanzhong has been proficient in "Spring and Autumn" since he was a child and likes the doctrine of Guiguzi.

When he was once a Sima of Dizhou, a reed grass suddenly grew in the house where he lived, with a total of three reed knots one foot long.

He felt strange and told Zhang Jianzhang about it.

Zhang Jianzhang said: "In the past, Puhong regarded the nine-knotted pampas growing in the pond as an auspicious sign, so he changed his surname to Pu, and his descendants are very prosperous.

Reeds should grow in ponds and swamps, but it is not unusual to grow in houses.

You will definitely be able to be a high-ranking official in the future, and the reed grass has three bamboo knots, indicating that the official position can be passed on to three people, you must remember my words. ”

The following year, Li Quanzhong died and was succeeded by his son Li Congwei. Li Congwei, nicknamed the King of the Golden Head, liked to fight with others when he was young, and he was unruly, and lived by drinking and bribing all day long.

One day, when he was fishing with many tourists next to the Sangqian Chilan Bridge, he spilled wine on the ground and said, "If I have the fate of the Youzhou Festival, I should catch a big fish." ”

Yan Bi really caught a big fish three feet long. In the first year of Dashun (890), Li Keyong attacked the Tuyuhun chieftain Helian Duo, and Li Congwei sent troops to rescue and repel Li Keyong.

The following year, Li Ke attacked Wang Rong with Chengde Jiedu, and Li Congwei sent troops to rescue Wang Rong again. The wife of Li Congwei's younger brother Li Kuangchou is very beautiful, and at the farewell party held with his family before departure,

Li Congwei was drunk and disorderly, and he actually gave his brother and daughter-in-law **, brothers are like clothes, women are like siblings, and Li Kuangwei has held a grudge against his eldest brother Li Congwei since then.

In 891, Li Congwei led tens of thousands of elite soldiers to rescue Wang Rong. In the second year of Gyeongbok (893), he won a victory at Yuanshi (in present-day Hebei). In February of the same year, Li Congwei led his troops from Zhenzhou back to Youzhou, and when he walked to Boye,

Li Kuangchou has occupied Youzhou City, called himself Lu Longliuhou, and sent troops to crusade against him, after the two sides fought, Li Congwei was defeated, and most of the troops fled back to Youzhou and took refuge in Li Kuangchou.

Li Congwei and some of his cronies stayed in Shenzhou, but their troops were insufficient and they were in a dilemma, so they sent Judge Li Baozhen to Beijing to ask for a return to Beijing.

Chang'an has suffered many military disasters in the war at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and now I heard that the envoy of Lu Longjie is coming to Chang'an, the people are very panicked, and the neighborhoods have spread: "The King of Jintou is coming to plot Sheji", some of the people therefore rolled up their bunks and fled to the remote valley with their families, and the emperor also rejected Li Congwei's request after hearing these rumors.
