However, it is said that Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty went through a lot of hardships, returned to Luoyang, witnessed the collapse of the city, and was unprepared, and temporarily lived in the mansion of Zhao Zhong, who was often served in the west of the city.

The flamboyant escort of grain and grass made people renovate the abandoned palace.

Zhang Yang, whose name is Uncle Zhizhi, was originally hired as Wu Meng by Bingzhou Yunzhong (now southwest of Yuanping County, Shanxi) because of his martial arts.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the eunuchs were in power, and he was ordered by the assassin Shi Ding Yuan to lead his troops to meet the eunuch Jian Shuo, the captain of the military academy.

Later, Jian Shuo died, and Zhang Yang was ordered by the general He Jin to return to Bingzhou to recruit troops, and obtained more than 1,000 people, and since then has remained in the Shangdang area to fight against the surviving and scattered peasant rebel army.

Dong Zhuo made a rebellion, bribed Lu Bu to kill Ding Yuan, and Zhang Yang led his troops to attack Shangdang Taishou Huguan (now Huguan, Changzhi, Shanxi), but captured several surrounding counties, with thousands of soldiers.

Yuan Shaoxing's soldiers attacked Dong Zhuo and came to Hanoi, where Zhang Yang and Yuan Shao and Xiongnu Shan Yu Fuluo stationed troops in Zhangshui.

Xiongnu Shan Yu wanted to launch a rebellion, Zhang Yang and Yuan Shao did not obey, Xiongnu Shan Yu robbed Zhang Yang, but was immediately defeated by Yuan Shao's general Liyi,

Zhang Yang arrived in Liyang, got rid of Shan Yu's control, and regathered people.

At that time, Zhang Yang was just a fake Sima under Ding Yuan, and he was not known to Dong Zhuo. When Dong Zhuo learned that Zhang Yang was pursued by Yuan Shao and was able to get rid of the control of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, it was evident that he was brave and good at fighting, so he appointed him as the general of Jianyi and the Taishou of Hanoi.

Zhang Yang went from an unknown fake Sima to being suddenly promoted to a general and a taishou by the imperial court, and he was also grateful for the grace of the imperial court.

When Zhang Yang heard that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was exiled to Hedong because of the rebellion of Li Dao and Guo Yan, he led his troops to send grain to Anyi, and was worshiped as the general of Anguo and was named the Marquis of Jinyang.

At that time, Zhang Yang wanted to welcome the emperor to Luoyang with the generals, but the generals refused, so Zhang Yang returned to Yewang (now Qinyang, Henan).

Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, and Han Xian coerced the Son of Heaven to return to Luoyang, and because of the lack of grain and grass, Zhang Yang escorted the grain and grass to Luoyang. Let people renovate the old palace room.

Zhang Yang thought that he had contributed food to the emperor when he was hungry, cold and in danger, repaired the palace, and made meritorious contributions, so he named the palace after "Yang", and called it "Yang An Palace".

In August of the first year of Jian'an (196), Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty lived in the Yang'an Palace, worshiped Zhang Yang as the Great Sima, and wanted to stay in the court.

Zhang Yang remembered that he proposed to enter Luoyang with Emperor Xian in Anyi, but the generals did not obey, knowing that he was suspicious of himself, so he said to the courtiers: "The Son of Heaven should be with the people of the world, and now the Son of Heaven is assisted by the ministers and ministers, and I am a foreign minister, so how can I stay in Kyoto when I protect the court in the periphery?" So he returned to the wild king.

After Emperor Xian stayed in Yang An Palace, people reported that Li Dao and Guo Yan were coming, and they were shocked.

Yang Feng and Han Xian advocated a decisive battle, and Dong admitted that the city was not strong, and the soldiers were outnumbered, and if the battle was defeated, it would be impossible to control it, so he advocated that Feng should go east to Shandong and take refuge and wait for help.

Emperor Xian said that from now on, he drove to Shandong, and all officials had no horses, and they all drove on foot.

Soon after leaving Luoyang, I suddenly heard the noise of the golden drums, but I saw the dust flying, like thousands of troops and horses coming head-on.

After offering the emperor and Fu Hou, they were speechless, and the guards of the hundred officials were terrified.

In doubt, the day before yesterday, he sent an envoy from Shandong to lead Xiahou to bow down in front of the car.

The envoy replied: "When General Cao heard that the emperor was returning to the east, he sent Xiahoudun as the vanguard to come to King Qin's rescue. Hearing that the emperor went to Luoyang, he set up Shandong soldiers and horses, and the edict was divided into three roads. ”

Xiahoudun knelt down to bow to the front of the car: "General Cao heard that the Son of Heaven was returning to the east, and specially ordered his subordinates to come to the rescue and congratulate Sheng'an." ”

The emperor was a little calm, and ordered Xiahoudun to stand up.

After a while, Xu Chu and Dian Wei came to the front of the car and greeted the king with a military salute.

Emperor Xian sent a message of condolences to Fang Bi, and Cao Hong, Li Dian, and Le Jin came to see him.

Cao Hong knelt down and said: "Brother Meng De heard that the thief army was approaching, and he was afraid that the vanguard General Xiahou would be alone, so he specially ordered us to rush to help, and the army led by Brother Chen will arrive later. ”

Emperor Xian's heart was reassured: "General Cao is really the minister of social affairs!" ”

As he was talking, he reported to the Malay newspaper: "Li Dao and Guo Yan led the soldiers to drive them away." ”

Xiahoudun and Cao Hong were divided into two wings, with the cavalry in front and the infantry behind, attacking as best they could, beheading more than 10,000 and defeating the thieves.

Xiahoudun asked the hundred officials to escort him back to Luoyang, and led his army outside the city.

The next day, Cao Cao led a large group of men and horses to arrive, and Xiahoudun and others caught him and recounted yesterday's battle.

Cao Cao set up the camp outside the city, only brought his entourage into the city, and went to Yang Andian to see the driver: "The minister is favored by the country, and he always thinks about retribution." Today, Li Dao and Guo Yan are in trouble with the imperial court, and they are full of evil. The minister has more than 200,000 elite soldiers, thanks to the blessing of the Son of Heaven, to shun the rebels, to fight the evil, invincible. Please Your Majesty put the community first and protect the dragon body. ”

Offering the emperor to proclaim condolences, Jin Feng Cao Cao led the division to be the school captain, fake Jieyue, and recorded Shangshu.

Cao Cao thanked him and returned to the camp after leaving the city.

Let's say that Li Dao and Guo Yan knew that Cao Cao had just come from Shandong, and he had been tired from a long distance, and his foothold was not stable, so they discussed a quick battle.

Jia Xu dissuaded: "No." Cao Cao's soldiers are brave and strong, so it is better to surrender as soon as possible, please forgive your own sins, and ask to avoid the disaster of extermination. ”

Li Wei was furious: "I treat you well, but I have two hearts and destroy my spirit." "Drawing his sword to kill Jia Xu, everyone persuaded him.

Jia Xu knew that it would be difficult for the two to succeed, so he dissuaded him many times and did not listen, and when he saw that the general trend had gone, he rode back to the township alone that night.

Li Dao and Guo Yan did not listen to the dissuasion, led troops to attack Cao Ying, but fled in defeat, with extremely cruel casualties, and countless people surrendered, only a few troops fled with him to the west, knowing that they were full of crimes, the world was intolerable, and there was nowhere to live, so they had to flee to the mountains.

As he was walking, he suddenly saw hundreds of people rushing from the mountain, but the people at the head were two teenagers.

Li Wei didn't look like an official soldier, and hurriedly urged forward: "We were chased and killed by the official army because of the rebellion against the imperial court, and we passed here." Seeing that the two are also heroes of the green forest, it is better to join forces, attack the Han family, seize the world of the Liu family, and enjoy the glory and wealth together. ”

One of the young men jumped forward with a spear, pointed a gun at Li Dao and said: "The Han family exists in name only, the Liu family is in danger in the world, and the people in the world hate it." It is really hateful that you rebelled against the imperial court, but were hunted down and killed with nowhere to live, and even uttered wild words, wanting to use the power of the people to resist the imperial court and regain the lost paradise, and then to harm the people again. As he spoke, he stabbed his horse with his spear.

Another teenager hurriedly stopped: "Brother Jie, slow down." ”

As he spoke, he asked Li Dao: "Since you are a rebel of the Han family, dare to ask who the general is?" Who was defeated? Where is Emperor Xian now? ”

When Li Dao saw this, he fled to Luoyang, was rescued by Cao Cao, and pursued him and Guo Yan to Luoyang, and was defeated by Cao Cao.

The two of them did not listen, and they became even more angry when they heard it.

It turned out that these two people were Li Le, a subordinate of Bai Bo, the leader of the Yellow Turban, Li Ji and Hu Jie, the sons of Hu Cai.

In that year, Emperor Han Xian returned to the east, and was chased and killed by Li Dao and Guo Yan to Hedong, and ordered Li Le, Hu Cai, Han Xian and others to go to the rescue.

Hu Cai was killed by Li Wei's rebellious army and died on the battlefield, Han Xian went with Yang Feng, and Li Le stayed in Hedong and died of illness soon after.

Hu Cai's son Hu Jie wants to find Li Ji, avenge his father's murder, and find Li Le's son Li Ji.

The two discussed, summoned Li Le and Hu Cai's old department, reunited in the mountains, and sought an opportunity to avenge Hu Cai.

When Hu Jie heard that the person in front of him was Li Dao, the enemy who killed his father, he was very red-eyed, and wanted to kill the enemy and avenge his father.

Li Ji knew that Li Dao and Guo Yan were brave generals of Xiliang, and they might not be able to win if they moved, and they would only hurt the lives of his subordinates. It's just that the cottage conditions are poor, I don't know if the two generals can condescend? ”

Li Dao had nowhere else to go, so he followed Li Le and Hu Jie to the mountain.

While setting up a banquet for the two of them, Li Ji asked Hu Jie to go down the mountain overnight, and secretly instructed that in the name of Li Le's edict to be the general of the expedition to the north, he sent his servant Pei Xiu to lead the generals of Guanxi to the mountains to arrest Li Dao and Guo Yan.

During the banquet, Guo Yan asked Hu Jie why he went down the mountain?

Li Ji said: "The two generals are going to join the grass today, but there is not much grain and grass in the mountains, so they asked Hu Jie to go to the nearby county government to borrow some grain and grass for emergency needs." ”

Li Wei asked in surprise: "The orders of the counties and counties are appointed by the imperial court, and they all regard the thieves as enemies. How can ice and charcoal be a furnace, how can they borrow food to help the enemy? ”

Li Ji said: "Now that the county guards and the county order sees that the Han family is in a panic, they will no longer pay taxes. The emperor is already unable to protect himself, how can he take care of the place? Therefore, the local officials want to keep their respective positions and stabilize the peace of one side, so they have to turn a blind eye! ”

Guo Yan said: "I can't complain that anti-thieves from all over the country have come and gone, but there are such benefits. ”

Li Ji said: "The people rebelled, but they were forced to live a peaceful life. As long as you don't want to be the king and seize power, no one botheres to care. It's just that some traitors rebel against the party and want to usurp power and seize the throne from time to time, endangering the safety of the royal family, how can they be compatible? ”

Li Dao and Guo Yan listened, didn't say more, and rested peacefully.

At dawn, Pei Xiu led his troops to arrive, and Li Jili responded to the outside and captured Li Dao.

Seeing that things were not good, Guo Yan and his general Wu Xi broke out of the encirclement and fled to Yixian.

Hu Jie personally beheaded Li Dao and handed over the head to Pei Xiu.

Pei Xiu invited Li Ji and Hu Jie to Beijing to receive the reward and receive the award.

Li Ji said: "The great revenge is avenged, and there is nothing else to ask for." I only hope that no matter who becomes the emperor in the future, as long as he treats the people well and makes them live and work in peace and contentment, it will be a blessing for the world. ”

Pei Xiu saw that Li Ji and Hu Jie insisted on not going, so he sent Li Dao's head to Kyoto.

Offering the emperor a generous reward and sealing Pei Xiu, the edict ordered Li Dao's head to be hung high and his three clans destroyed.

Wu Xi fled to Yixian with Guo Yan, and seeing that the general trend was gone, he killed Guo Yan and seized Guo Yan's wife and concubine and family property.

It is said that Cao Cao pursued and killed Li Dao and Guo Yan, won a complete victory, and still returned to the camp and stationed troops outside Luoyang City.

Yang Feng and Han Xian saw that Cao Cao had quelled the rebellion of Li Dao and Guo Yan, and had achieved great achievements, and they would be in charge of the government and could not accommodate themselves, so they played the emperor and led the army and horses of their headquarters out of the city and went to Daliang (now Kaifeng, Henan) on the grounds of chasing and killing Li Dao and Guo Yan.

Emperor Xian saw Yang Feng and Han Xian leaving Beijing, and knew that they would not return, and there were few generals around him, and the loyal ministers and strategists were old and weak, and he was not without worries.

Some ministers played: "Quickly announce Cao Cao's entry into the court to discuss politics." ”

Emperor Xian said: "Cao Mengde has made a contribution to quelling the chaos, I have been promoted, but I have been stationed outside the city, I don't know what it means?" ”

Suddenly, I saw a minister come out of the class to play: "General Cao calmed the chaos and escorted the car, and made great contributions to the world, and the generals all faced the monarch with military courtesy, and their loyalty can be expressed; More than 200,000 strong soldiers threatened to harass the capital and were stationed outside the city, and benevolence and righteousness were visible. I hope that His Majesty will send an edict, and the minister is willing to go to the edict and explore the truth by the way. ”

Emperor Xian regarded it, and it turned out to be Dong Zhao, a forty-year-old councillor, who issued an edict and ordered him to go.
