Chapter 123 [Defeat]

Yang Kan led everyone to attack the capital of Yanzhou, however, these 30,000 people had no formal training, and in the face of Yanzhou's 5,000 county soldiers, they couldn't attack for a long time.

If we can't attack it, we will consume it, and see who consumes whom. Yang Kan built several camps around the city and surrounded the city, and he planned to fight a protracted battle. Yang Kan wants to use the power of a county against a country, and the risk is too great. However, he still had hope, fantasizing that the Liang Dynasty would send someone to pick him up.

Because of the romance of that arrow, Yang Kan's prestige spread all over the world, and no one in the Great Wei court knew his name, so the emperor throne has not yet been hot, Emperor Xiaozhuang very much hopes that Yang Kan can be used for himself, in his opinion, Yang Kan must be the same as the Jizhou Gaoqian brothers belong to the people who are dissatisfied with Er Zhurong's massacre of the courtiers and rebelled out of righteous indignation, such people can be fought for.

When the Gao Qian brothers saw the emperor's envoy, they surrendered, which increased the emperor's confidence in his influence, so the emperor sent an envoy again.

The price offered by the emperor is the hussar general, Taishan Gong, and Yanzhou Thorn History, as long as you are willing to submit to the past, not only can you not blame the past, but also be able to increase the official and enter the knighthood. The official titles are all there, and the reward is not ungenerous, however, this time Emperor Xiaozhuang's hot face was pasted with a cold ass, because he still didn't understand the motives of Yang Kan's uprising, and Yang Kan was not against Er Zhurong but Da Wei, so not only was the official position not accepted, but the minister was also killed.

Compared with Xu Su, Emperor Xiaozhuang seems to be uneducated, and he doesn't understand the background of Yangkan's rebellion, so he can only be wishful thinking. Emperor Xiaozhuang was angry, since Yang Kan is so ignorant of lifting, we are welcome.

So he took Yu Hui as the servant and led an army of 100,000 to Mount Tai. Xu Yanxingtai, Cui Xiaofen, and Dadu Governor Diao Xuan also led the army to cooperate with the action. Yu Hui, like Yu Jin, came from the Yu family with the surname Xianbei Bagui, and his son eldest married Er Zhurong's daughter. It is counted that Yu Changru is a brother-in-law with Emperor Xiaozhuang and Chen Liuwang's uncle and nephew. Yu Hui brought the most elite troops of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Gao Huan, Peng Le, He Bayue and others all participated in this operation.

Yang Kan encircles Yanzhou. Yu Hui encircled Yangkan, encircled and counter-encircled. The reality is that with 30,000 untrained and improvised township soldiers against a battle-hardened army of tigers and wolves, Yang Kan has no chance of winning. Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Su volunteered to ask to move troops to the Liang Dynasty, and Yang Kan agreed, as long as the Liang Dynasty army arrived, the inside and outside should be combined, and the break in Hui was just around the corner.

Xu Su slipped away. There are many people in Yu Hui. Yang Kan was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, Yu Hui launched an attack, Yang Kan led his soldiers to resist desperately, and the battle was very tenacious, because he still had hope in his heart, and he said that he would hold on until the arrival of reinforcements from the Liang Dynasty.

In fact, Emperor Wu of Liang had already sent the Yang family in the south of the Yangtze River to reinforce Yang Yaren, who was also from the Taishan Goat clan. Unfortunately, the soldiers and horses of the Liang Dynasty were blocked by Yang Yu, the governor of the southeast province of Great Wei. Forced to retreat. Therefore, Yang Kanwang looked forward to Liang Jun through the autumn water, and until the arrows were shot out, he did not see the shadow of Liang Jun.

In desperation. Yang Kan led the army to break through the siege, and fought and marched, and ran to the border of Liang and Wei in one day and one night. With more than 10,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry following closely, the Wei army did not dare to push too closely. Night. Yang Kan camped for a short rest, ready to take everyone into the beam. The soldiers were far away from home. The sad song resounded through the fields, and the sheep sighed.

In the end, Yang Kan didn't want to involve these loyal and courageous villagers, so he decided to go south alone, so he said goodbye to everyone with tears, and took his brothers and nephews to cross the river to the south, and the others dispersed. Yang Kan will continue to write his immortal legend in Jiangnan. For the Northern Wei government, Taishan County was recovered.

For Xu Su, his efforts were in vain. However, Xu Su's ending was not bad, while his friend Zheng Yan was much more miserable. Speaking of Zheng Yan, he was also very wronged, he was born in the Zheng family of Xingyang, as a son of the first-class scholar clan in the authentic world, governments at all levels are vying to invite him to come out as an official. Zheng Yan accepted Situ Hu Guozhen's invitation to join the army and became a frequent visitor to Situ Mansion.

The aura and handsome and chic image of the children of the scholar clan attracted the attention of countless young girls, including Hu Guozhen's daughter, and soon, the two had a private lifelong relationship. However, later Miss Hu entered the palace and became a concubine, and their love became empty.

Later, Hu Chonghua became the Empress Dowager Hu. After the Empress Dowager Hu took power for the second time, Zheng Yan was the scholar and the leader of the food code, Zheng Yan completely became the face of the Empress Dowager Hu, the Empress Dowager Hu watched closely, and often let him stay by her side day and night, Zheng Yan went home and was followed by a little eunuch, all he could do was to ask his wife a little housework, and his wife was completely abandoned. Er Zhurong entered Beijing, Zheng Yan ran back to his hometown with a smoke, and discussed with his cousin Zheng Zhongming to raise troops according to the county, but unfortunately the matter was revealed to be killed by Zheng Zhongming's subordinates, and the heads of both were teleported to Luoyang.

& In the crusade against Yang Kan, although Gao Huan's military achievements were not obvious, he made a group of friends, among which there was a person named Gao Longzhi, who was in the lower Tailang of Yu Hui's subordinates. Gao Longzhi was moved by Gao Huan's temperament, accepted it with his heart, entrusted his life to Gao Huan, and followed Gao Huan for life.

In fact, Gao Long's original surname is Xu. Being good at making friends is Gao Huan's specialty, and it is also his magic weapon to accumulate popularity. After the victory, Yu Hui did not wait for the class division, and the order of the imperial court came: immediately lead the army to assist Shangdang Wang Yuantianmu in the crusade against the Jinan rebels. Xing Gao, the leader of the Jinan rebels, was born in the Xing clan, a large clan in Hejian. Xing Gao was originally the master of Youzhou, Du Luo Zhou, Xian Yu Xiuli rebelled, Xing Gao led the children of the clan to hold on to the rebels according to Jucheng, resisted the rebels for nearly three years, and the Northern Expeditionary Army of the imperial court lost one after another, Xing Gao knew that Hebei could not continue to stay, so he led the sect to the south to avoid chaos.

Along the way, there was an endless stream of Hebei people fleeing Ge Rong's rebellion, and the thousands of families led by Xing Gao finally stopped in Qingzhou, and the Hebei people once reached more than 100,000 people in Qingzhou. Displaced people have always been the nightmare of successive dynasties and governments, and these people who have lost their land and left their homes have been in exile in order to survive, and if they cannot solve the problem of food, then taking risks and rebelling has become their only choice. There were generally two ways for the Northern Wei government to deal with displaced people.

First, resettlement in the nearest camps, that is, arranging them into military camps, is generally a method adopted for ethnic minorities such as Xianbei and Gaoche, because it was a popular concept for Han people to farm land and become soldiers in the north during the Northern Dynasties.

Second. In the exile area, a new prefecture was established. Choose a person with high prestige among the homeless people as a stabbing or county guard to appease the homeless. So. After the surrender of the townspeople of Beizhen, the imperial court let the camps of Heng, Hebei, and Youzhou come to resettle. For the Hebei refugees, who were originally free people, the establishment of counties is undoubtedly the best choice.

In response to the problem of displaced people in Hebei, Yuan Shijun, the assassin of Qingzhou, reported to the imperial court to set up Xin'an County to settle the displaced people, and Xing Gao became the best candidate for Taishou because he had been a government official and was born in a wealthy family in Hebei. Yuan Shijun's report had not yet been handed over, but a letter of appointment was issued granting Xing Ziyao the title of Hejian Taishou. Hejian Mansion is the base of the old Xing family, but Hejian Mansion has fallen, and Xing Ziyao's Hejian Taishou is naturally led by Hebei refugees, which means that Xing Gao's Xin'an is too guarded.

It turned out that the Great Wei Dynasty had been in the Hundred Guard rebellion since the second year of the Divine Turtle against the Praetorian Guard Rebellion, which forbade the promotion of martial artists. In order to appease the warriors, the high-level government headed by Cui Liang invented the suspension system, that is, no matter what everyone's talent is, if you want to be an official in charge, you have to be senior.

According to Xing Ziyao's qualifications, the score is ranked in front of Xing Gao, so the imperial court appointed Xing Ziyao as the Taishou in accordance with the regulations of the system, in fact, the system is that the dead are alive, and if you don't know how to be flexible, you will kill people.

I can't stand this matter on anyone's head, and I work hard and faithfully. firmly thought that what he deserved would definitely come, but it turned out to be like this, Xing Gao's lungs exploded, it didn't matter. In this case, I have no choice but to do this: rebellion. The banner of Xinggao's rebellion was raised, and the entire Qingqi region was in chaos. The displaced people from Hebei, who had long endured the oppression of the locals, saw hope and came to join them. Soon, 100,000 people gathered around Xinggao. It's huge. The news of Xing Gao's army reached Qingzhou, and Shi Yuan Shijun gathered his subordinates to prepare for a crusade.

Ma is Li Hun from Zhao County, before Er Zhurong entered Luo, Li Hun and his friends Hejian Xing Shao, Beihai Wang Xin took his family to leave the capital and came to Qingzhou, Wang Xin went to Donglai County to serve as Taishou, Xing Shao lived in Donglai with Wang Xin.

The governor of Qingzhou Thorn History is Cui Liang's father and brother Cui Guangshao, Cui Guangshao is from the Qinghe Cui family, and has a strong influence in Qi and Qingyi. Xing Gao raised troops, Yangping people responded back, Xing Gao quickly occupied the outer city of Qingzhou, Qingzhou City was in a panic, and Yuan Shijun was also worried. Cui Guangshao and Li Hun convened the main officials of Qingzhou and held a mobilization meeting to explain to everyone the stakes, only if everyone defends the city together can there be a future, so everyone made a bloody alliance and swore to fight Xing Gao to the end.

Yang Xiuzhi, a talented man from the Hebei clan, had the foresight, and when he saw the more and more displaced people in Qingzhou gathering, he was keenly aware of the chaos that would happen next, so he took his brothers to leave Qingzhou and run to the capital, and those who laughed at Yang Xiuzhi's worries stayed. So far, Qingzhou has set off a vigorous anti-traitor campaign.

All the people who have anything to do with Xing Gao have been purged, the first to bear the brunt is the Hebei people who are living here, dozens of people from the Yang family were killed, and Xing Shao, who was also born in Hebei, was almost killed, Xing Shao is closer to Xing Gao, so the locals are worried that they will collude and kill Xing Shao first.

Wang Xin's hometown of Beihai County belongs to the authentic natives, and the Beihai royal family has gradually become a local family since Wang Meng assisted Fu Jian to worship the prime minister, and has a high reputation in the Qingzhou area, under the protection of Wang Xin, Xing Shao survived. Wen Zisheng, Xing Zicai, and Wei Shu are known as the three great talents of the Great Wei Dynasty, and Wang Xin and Yang Xiuzhi also enjoy fame. Got rid of the possible spies, Qingzhou City became an iron plate, Xing Gao did not attack the city, and turned to attack Gwangju, Gwangju did not fight, but the people of Gwangju were really looted.

Speaking of which, the purpose of Xing Gao's rebellion is nothing more than to fill his stomach, the locals call him an elm thief, Henan people laugh at Hebei people like to eat elm leaves, in fact, it's not that there is nothing to eat? In ancient times, the material was extremely not abundant, and the meat was a first-class delicacy, and people were busy for half a day just to fill their stomachs, where would they eat wild vegetables and leaves for fitness like modern people.

After Emperor Xiaozhuang ascended the throne, because Wei Langen, who was also a scholar, was Xing Gao's uncle, he asked Wei Langen to go to Qingzhou to persuade him to surrender. There is a precedent in this regard, the brothers of Gao Qian, a local tyrant in Jizhou, rebelled with Ge Rong, and as soon as the envoy of Emperor Xiaozhuang arrived, the Gao brothers immediately reversed. However, here in Xinggao, Wei Langen failed. Xing Gao is different from Gao Gan, Gao Gan just rebelled with Ge Rong with the general trend, and Xing Gao has his own political demands, he signed himself as the King of Han, the year name Tiantong, and belonged to the organized ** armed forces.

The famous trick general Li Shuren came again, and then was beaten away. Every time Li Shuren went out, he was basically defeated and fled. But his failure once again made the upper echelons of Luoyang realize that Xing Gao could not be underestimated.

Xing Gao occupied Jinan. Shangdang Wang Yuantianmu supervised the expedition, and the army of Yu Hui, who had just returned victoriously in Mount Tai, came to help, Fei Mu, Gao Huan, He Basheng, Erzhu Tianguang, Dou Tai, Erzhu Zhao......, and all the cattle of the Erzhu army came. Xing Gao saw this luxurious lineup, and the psychological defense line was broken in an instant, put down his arms and surrender, perhaps, there are also guns that are not killed, not to mention, we are also from the Hebei clan.

Xing Gao's rebellion was originally a battle of will, thinking that he led his troops to fight against the Hebei rebels, and insisted for three years, without commendation for this court, he had no complaints, and when he arrived in Qingzhou, he was not familiar with the place, and the problem of eating thousands of people became his responsibility, and he still tried his best to appease everyone to be a good citizen. However, the imperial court disappointed him again and again, and finally made him have to turn back and embark on a road of no return.

Just as the Song River went to Liangshan for Zhao'an and for the future of his brothers, Xing Gao's original intention was only to solve the problem of eating the Hebei refugees who followed him, and to attract the attention of the imperial court. Why, then, didn't Welangen say that he would surrender?

Let's look at the situation at that time, Emperor Xiaozhuang sent several ambassadors in Shandong, Liu Lingzhu gathered some of the Hebei refugees to go back to Youzhou, and the imperial court did not have any good policy for the refugees, but persuaded them to go back, but if they could fill their stomachs and avoid the war, who would leave their hometown? Therefore, it is impossible for Xing Gao to follow Wei Langen.

In fact, if the imperial court had not been stingy with a small Taishou position, Xing Gao might still be a loyal minister of the Great Wei Dynasty, Yuan Tianmu sent someone to escort Xing Gao to the capital, and under the instigation of Er Zhurong behind the scenes, Emperor Xiaozhuang issued a decree to sentence the death penalty to be executed immediately. Er Zhu Rongcai doesn't care if you are a big clan or not, as soon as the Heyin killing starts, what is the number of Xinggao. This is the end of the rebellion.

However, the victory of Po Xing Gao did not make Emperor Xiaozhuang happy for long, and the Great Wei Dynasty underwent a more severe test. Yuan Hao, the king of the North Sea who lived in the south of the Yangtze River, had already returned when Yuan Tianmu was conquering Jinan. (To be continued......)
