According to Khitan customs, every time he confessed something, he received one tooth chip, and after receiving eight tooth chips, he would bow down to the ground with his face, and Yelu Deguang ordered him to be handcuffed with shackles and sent to the north.

One day, they stayed overnight in the people's thatched huts, Jing Yanguang was afraid of being tortured again, and at night, taking advantage of the carelessness of the guards, he strangled himself to death by choking his throat with his hands, at the age of 56. The people of the time thought that his death was tragic, and after Han Gaozu ascended the throne, he issued an edict to posthumously present him as a Zhongshu order.

After the Khitan invaded Daliang, Zhao Zaili, who was known as the "thorn in the eye" by the people, rushed to the capital from the feudal town to visit the Khitan princes and ministers. When I walked back to Zhengzhou,

Hearing that Liu Jixun had been arrested by the Khitans in the same state of Jiedu, Zhao Zaili feared that he would fall into the same fate, so on the night of January 25, 947 AD, he hanged himself by tying a belt to the railing of the stable, at the age of 66.

Besides, Zhang Yanze, after capturing the beam, was completely exposed, and all the gold and silk treasures in the inner mansion were all taken for himself, so that in the house, the wealth and money were piled up.

He also indulged the soldiers in plundering, and the people of the city suffered greatly. Mrs. Ding of Chu is the mother of Shi Yanxu, the younger brother of Shi Chonggui's younger brother Cao Zhou Jiedu, who is quite beautiful, and Zhang Yanze sent someone to marry her. The Queen Mother hesitated slightly, and Zhang Yanze sent someone to rob her away.

Zhang Yanze often led hundreds of people to hang the banner of "Naked Heart" to inspect the capital, and his soldiers captured the prisoner to him, he did not distinguish between indiscriminate and wrong, just stared, stretched out a hand and raised three fingers, the soldiers understood it, and they would pull the prisoner out of the door and cut it into three pieces.

Zhang Yanze was at odds with Gao Xun from the pavilion. One day, he ran to Gao Xun's house with the strength of wine, killed his second uncle and third brother, and then died outside the door.

After Yelu Deguang arrived at Daliang, Gao Xun cried to Yelu Deguang, and Yelu Deguang also hated Zhang Yanze as a person. He ordered his arrest.

Then Zhang Yanze's crime was declared to the civil and military officials and Kyoto scholars, and asked: "Zhang Yanze's crime, should he be killed?" "Hundreds of officials appealed by name, saying that their crimes were unpardonable.

The people also rushed to complain and state Zhang Yanze's evil deeds, and Yelu Deguang ordered Zhang Yanze to be taken to Beishi to be beheaded.

The children and grandchildren of the doctor that Zhang Yanze originally killed also carried a mourning rod at this time, and then scolded angrily and beat Zhang Yanze's corpse with a mourning rod.

Gao Xun ordered his wrists to be cut off and the body removed from the shackles. Disembowelment to pay tribute to those he killed. Then the people rushed up and smashed his head, took out his brain, chopped up flesh and bones, and ate it.

The matter of the Later Jin Dynasty ended here, from the founding of Shi Jingjiao in 936 to the death of Shi Chonggui in 947, a total of two emperors were experienced, and the country enjoyed the country for 12 years.

Deed Period

After Dewey's surrender. The overall situation in the world has been decided, and Yerod is about to lead the army into Daliang. Khitan Hanlin Chengzhi and Zhang Li, the secretary of the ministry, said to him: "Now that the Great Liao has won the world, the Central Plains will be made by the Central Plains people accordingly, and it is not appropriate to use the northern people and the cronies on the left and right."

If the decree is wrong, the people will not be convinced, and even if they get the world, they will lose it quickly. Jerod regarded it as a scholarly opinion. I just smiled and didn't take it to heart.

After entering the Great Liang, Yelu Deguang proudly said to the ministers of the Later Jin Dynasty: "I know all about your Central Plains, but about my country." You don't know! ”

Zhao Yanshou asked for the payment of military salaries for the troops, but Yelu Deguang refused on the grounds that "my country does not have this system", and then according to the old Khitan system, he sent cavalry, and in the name of herding horses, he looted everywhere, calling it "Fighting Grass Valley".

As a result, the young and strong among the people died at the knife edge of the Khitan soldiers, and the old and weak filled in the ravines, from Daliang and Luoyang to Zheng, Hua, Cao, and Pu prefectures, within a radius of 100 miles, and their property and livestock were looted.

Yelu Deguang said to Liu Yun, the third judge: "The Khitan army of 300,000 has defeated the Jin Kingdom, and all armies should be rewarded richly." ”

At that time, the official warehouse was empty, and Liu Yun didn't know where to come from, so he borrowed money from the scholars and people in the capital, and sent dozens of envoys to various states to borrow money.

In the end, the money was not awarded to the Khitan soldiers, but was accumulated in the inner treasury and intended to be shipped to the country. Yelu Deguang also did not trust the Later Jin Dynasty, and did not let the Jiedu envoy who had surrendered return to his post, but sent his own sons and cronies to serve as local governors.

This series of policies eventually led to complaints, the people were not able to make a living, and the gentry and common people felt that the Khitan was harmful, and they rose up to resist.

At that time, Liu Yuan, the general of the Khitan faction, was the deputy envoy of Baoyi Jiedu, and the people of Shaancheng suffered from his tyranny.

This is the era when my generation worked hard. Liu Gong of Hedong is highly respected and famous, if we kill Liu Yuan and lead Shaanxi City to attach to him, as the first initiative in the world, then it will be easy to obtain wealth and wealth. ”

Zhao Hui and others all thought so. So Wang Yan led a few cronies, took advantage of the darkness to climb up to Yacheng and sneaked into the treasury, took out the weapons and distributed them to everyone. On the morning of 14 February, the rebels attacked one after another and cut off Liu Yuan's head

, hung on the gate of the mansion, killed the Khitan prison army, and supported Zhao Hui as the queen. Yelu Deguang gave Zhao Hui an edict and ordered him to stay behind for Baoyi. Zhao Hui angrily beheaded the Khitan envoy, burned the edict, and sent an envoy to Jinyang with a watch seal.

Previously, the Later Jin Dynasty had set up township soldiers, known as the "Tianwei Army", and taught and practiced for more than a year, but the villagers were still not familiar with military combat and could not form an army, so the imperial court ordered the disbandment.

However, some of the ruffians in the township soldiers did not want to be peasants facing the loess with their backs to the sky, but began to occupy the mountains as kings and engaged in a businessless business.

Later, the Khitan indulged the Hu cavalry to "fight grass valleys" everywhere, and ordered their sons and cronies to serve as local officials, but these people were not familiar with political affairs, and some opportunists among the Han people who saw the wind and steered were attached to them at this time.

These Khitan officials had the advice of the Han people, and they were like a tiger with wings, and since then they have been even more unscrupulous in their power and wealth, extorting money, making it impossible for the people to live.

So people have invested in the green forest, and the power of the green forest has become bigger, and they are no longer satisfied that this mountain is my open. I planted this tree, and if I wanted to cross this road, I left a small fight to buy road money, but began to attack the city and rob the state city.

Liang Hui, a giant thief in Fuyang, saw that Xiangzhou Tun had weapons. The Khitan appointed Zhangde Jiedu envoy Gao Tangying had not yet arrived, so on the night of the 21st, he sent strong men to climb over the city wall, open the city gate, and then lead soldiers into the city, killing hundreds of Khitans, and since then occupying Xiangzhou, claiming to be the queen.

Wang Qiong, the leader of the rebel army in Lanzhou, led more than 1,000 people to capture the southern city of Lanzhou, and then crossed the pontoon bridge to the north. Besiege the Evil Law Lang Five in the Tooth City. When Jerod heard the news,

Shocked, he hurriedly dispatched troops to the rescue, Wang Qiong was outnumbered, and was finally defeated and killed. But at this time, the whole country is already full of smoke, and Jinyang Shi Jingjiao has already been called the emperor.

The four feudal towns responded one after another. Danzhou commanded Gao Yan and Zhaoyi Jiedu to make Wang Shouen kill the Khitan envoys, and Yelu Deguang sent officials who sent envoys to Jinzhou to loot the people's money. and was also slain by the people.

Subsequently, the three states of Song, Bo, and Mi fell one after another, and Yelude saw that the general trend had gone, and said to the officials on the left and right with hatred: "I can't imagine that the people of the Central Plains are so difficult to subdue!" ”

So he hurriedly summoned the civil and military officials of the former Later Jin Dynasty and said: "The sky is getting hotter, I can't stay here for a long time, and I want to temporarily return to the Liao Kingdom to visit the Queen Mother." Yelu Deguang refused on the grounds that "the Queen Mother's family is huge, just like the ancient cypress roots, and cannot be moved". Yelu Deguang wanted all the officials of the Later Jin Dynasty to follow him north.

Someone said: "If the whole country moves north, I am afraid that people's hearts will be shaken, so it is better to move slowly." So he commanded those who had a ministry to follow him north. Others stayed on the beam.

On March 17, Yelu Deguang, the Khitan lord who had been in charge of the Central Plains for less than three months, set out from Daliang, and thousands of officials from the civil and military departments of the Later Jin Dynasty were taken away, thousands of soldiers and soldiers, hundreds of palace maids and eunuchs, and all valuable things in the treasury were also taken away.

On the 21st, Yelu Deguang crossed the Yellow River from Baima and said to Gao Xun, the envoy of Xuanhui: "I am in the Liao country, and I take riding and hunting as a pleasure, and it is depressing to come here. ”

On the 26th, Yelu Deguang was about to attack Xiangzhou, and the defender Liang Hui asked to surrender, and Yelu Deguang Hao forgave him of his guilt and promised to make him a defensive envoy. Liang Hui suspected fraud and went to the city to refuse.

On the fourth day of the fourth month of April, before dawn, Yelu Deguang ordered the armies of the Han Dynasty to attack Xiangzhou, and soon the city fell, Yelu Deguang killed all the men in the city, and the women were driven north with the army, leaving Gao Tangying to guard Xiangzhou, Gao Tangying checked the city, and the people left behind were only more than 700 men and women. Later, the festival made Wang Jihong collect the skull in the city and bury it, and obtained a total of more than 100,000 bodies.

Yelu Deguang used dozens of large ships loaded with weapons from the Later Jin Dynasty to transport them northward, planned to return to Liao from Bianshui along the Yellow River, and ordered Yu Hou Wu Xingde, the capital of Ningguo, to lead more than 1,000 soldiers to escort them along the way.

When he arrived in Heyin, Wu Xingde consulted with his subordinates and said, "Now we are being coerced by Hu Lu and are about to leave our hometown. Everyone will die, but how can they be wild ghosts in a foreign land!

The Hulu forces will inevitably not be able to stay in the Central Plains for a long time, so it is better to drive them out together, stick to Heyang City, and wait until the Son of Heaven who has the destiny of heaven to return before becoming his subjects, isn't this a long-term plan? ”

Everyone agreed. Wu Xingde gave the weapons in the ship to everyone, and then killed the Khitan prison envoy together.

At this time, Cui Tingxun, who was catching up with the Khitan Heyang Jiedu, sent troops to escort Geng Chongmei to Luzhou, and Wu Xingde took advantage of the emptiness in the city to occupy Heyang, and the soldiers unanimously recommended Wu Xingde to deploy for Heyang.

The Khitan sent Wuding Jiedu to inspect Fangtai in Luoyang, and when he arrived in Zhengzhou, the guards in the state mutinied and forced him to be the king of Zheng.

Before, Zhu Yi, the descendant of Zhu Wen of Later Liang, avoided disaster and became a monk, and Zhang Yu, the leader of the Songshan Righteous Army, found him, made him the Son of Heaven, took off the crown and robe of the great god of Songyue and put it on him, and then led more than 10,000 people to attack Zhengzhou, but was defeated by Fang Tai.

Fang Tai thought that the Khitan power was still very strong, and he was afraid that things would not work out, so he persuaded the defenders to move west together, but everyone disagreed, and Fang Tai fled from the west gate to Luoyang.

The defenders lost Fang Tai and bit back and falsely accused the Khitan that Fang Tai had coerced them into rebellion. Fang Tai sent his son Fang Shilang to tell the truth to the Khitan, but was killed by the Khitan general Ma.

Fang Tai knew that he couldn't defend himself, and at this time he happened to encounter the righteous army attacking Luoyang, and the Khitan stayed behind Liu Xi to throw down the city and flee to Xuzhou, so he temporarily stayed in Luoyang and attacked the righteous army with the patrol envoy Pan Huan, the righteous army was defeated, and Zhang Yu killed Zhu Yi and surrendered to Fang Tai.

Fang Tai planned to surrender to Jinyang, but Wu Xingde sent someone to trick him and say, "I'm just an adjutant in the army. You've been guarding this place, and now I'm waiting for you. Mrs. Fang believed it and came to Heyang. Killed by Wu Xingde.

When Yelu Deguang heard about the Heyang Rebellion, he sighed: "I have three mistakes, that's why the world rebels against me like this!" Xu Gedao looted money, which was the first mistake; Ordering the northerners to 'fight the grass valley' was the second mistake, and the failure to send the envoys of the various knots back to the town as soon as possible was the third mistake. ”

For how to govern the Central Plains. He also had a more mature idea, and in a letter to his younger brother Li Hu, he wrote: "I often think about the way to govern the Central Plains at night, and it seems that only the three things that are most important are to put my heart in my heart, to make peace with the army, and to comfort the people. ”

However, God would not give him another chance, and soon he fell ill in Lincheng (now Lincheng, Hebei), and his condition quickly deteriorated, and when he arrived in Luancheng (now Luancheng, Hebei), he had a high fever.

Putting ice cubes on the chest and abdomen could not cool down, and finally, on April 22, the first year of Datong (947), Hu Lin died of illness near Luancheng at the age of forty-six.

Although Yerod's wish to enter the Central Plains was realized. But it was only a flash in the pan, and finally ended up with a mistake for Qingqing's life. And what is the situation of Zhao Yanshou, the other mastermind of this battle?

When the Khitan army entered the beam, Zhao Yanshou burst into tears of excitement, thinking that he had left his hometown for so many years, sent people under the fence, and finally had an eye. Let him get what he wants, and he can be the emperor of the Central Plains

, I couldn't sleep for a night with excitement, but he waited left and right, and waited for a long time before Yelu Deguang took the initiative to fulfill his promise. So he sent Li Song to Yelu Deguang and said: "I don't dare to expect to be the son of heaven of the Han people, but I want to be a crown prince." ”

Li Song had no choice but to relay this to Yelu Deguang. Yelu Deguang prevaricated him and said: "I will not hesitate to cut the flesh on my body even if it is useful to King Yan. But I heard that the crown prince should be the son of the Son of Heaven to be the one, how can this be what King Yan can do! ”

So he ordered Zhao Yanshou to be promoted to an official position.

At that time, the Khitan took Hengzhou as the central capital, and the Hanlin Chengzhi Zhang Lixiang proposed Zhao Yanshou to stay in Zhongjing, the prime minister, the Lu Shang scholar, the governor of the Chinese and foreign military, the privy envoy and a large number of other official titles. With a stroke of his pen, Yerod issued an edict after erasing the two posts of "recording Shangshu and supervising Chinese and foreign military affairs". Zhao Yanshou was disheartened, but helpless.

After Yelu Deguang's death, Zhao Yanshou resented Yelu Deguang's treachery and said to the left and right: "I will no longer enter Longsha." "On the same day, he led the troops to Hengzhou.

The Khitan Yongkang King Wu and the two kings of the south and the north also led their armies into Hengzhou one after another. Zhao Yanshou wanted to keep them out of the city, but he was worried about losing the support of the large army, so he let them in.

At this time, the Khitan generals had secretly discussed supporting Wu Xiang as the new Khitan lord, and Wu Xiang then climbed the Drum Corner Tower to accept the worship of his uncle and brother.

And Zhao Yanshou didn't know this, and claimed to be under the edict of the Khitan Emperor, acting as an agent to preside over the military affairs of the Southern Dynasties, and ordered the proclamation of all provinces.

Someone persuaded Zhao Yanshou and said: "The Khitan lords have been gathering for days to discuss, there must be something wrong here." Now there are no less than 10,000 Han soldiers, so it is better to strike first. Zhao Yanshou hesitated.

On April 27, Zhao Yanshou ordered that a ceremony be held at the Beixian Pavilion on the first day of the next lunar month to accept congratulations from civil and military officials. The etiquette is: the prime minister and the privy envoy bow down the steps, and the festival makes the following bow down the steps.

Li Song thought that the Khitan people had different intentions and things were unpredictable, so he tried his best to persuade Zhao Yanshou to be spared, and the matter was finally stopped. On the first day of the fifth month, Wu wanted to summon Zhao Yanshou, Zhang Li, He Ning, Li Song, Feng Dao and others to his building to drink.

Wuxi's wife has always served Zhao Yanshou as a brother, and Wuyi said to Zhao Yanshou: "My sister is from Khitan, don't you want to see her?" Zhao Yanshou happily walked into the back hall with him.

After a long time, Wu wanted to come out and say to Zhang Li and the others: "King Yan deliberately rebelled, and he was locked up just now. ”

He also said: "When the first emperor was in Daliang, he left me a plan and allowed me to preside over the military affairs of the Southern Dynasty. Before his recent death, there were no other edicts. And King Yan presided over the military affairs of the Southern Dynasty without authorization, how can it be reasonable! A few days later, Wu wanted to gather the ministers of the Han Dynasty to the Hengzhou Mansion to read the edict of Yelu Deguang, that is, the emperor's throne. And Zhao Yanshou was escorted to the grassland as before, the difference is that last time it was him and his father, and this time it was just him.

The yellow sand wind swept in the air and threw it, and the clouds moved the Yin Mountain and the snow was full of snow.

The water explorer moved back to the tent, and the eagle arrows fell with the bow.

The birds are hungry and pecked at the frost and fruits, and the horses run away from the glacier with thirst.

Occupy the fertile grassland of the plateau, and make a fire in the middle of the night to break the treetops.

This "Plugged" is Zhao Yanshou's only remaining poem, and as a prisoner, what kind of feeling does he have in his heart in the face of such a magnificent scenery on the Plug? Thousands of years later, who knows.

Maybe it was the call of his adoptive father, Zhao Yanshou also died in Khitan two years later. (To be continued.) )
