Han Xin led the children of Guanzhong out of Guanzhong, but in fact he was a little confused, because he didn't know what he was going to do in this war.

He has experienced countless wars in his life, but he has almost never had pressure, whether it is defeating Meng Tian, or breaking through the pass and destroying Qin, or directly determining the three Qins after that, even if he took a group of recruits to fight in Zhao State, he felt okay.

The various wars in his life, only when he fought with Xiang Yu was under pressure, Xiang Yu rushed too fiercely, he struggled to maintain it, and with many fierce generals, the front was broken up and recombined, and finally defeated Xiang Yu.

Even when he fought with the Xiongnu at the beginning, he knew very well that as long as he did not go out of the Great Wall and did not enter the grassland, he would be invincible.

As a result, now Luo Xin asked him to lead troops to pacify the king of Huainan and the king of Wu.

What kind of stinky fish and rotten shrimp is this?

Still need me to do it myself?

If Luo Xin wasn't his eldest brother, he would have gone on strike on the spot, wouldn't it be good for me to chat with Cai Niang at this time?

The two of them are getting older, and they are about to be separated by yin and yang, what kind of battle will they fight?

With this mentality, Han Xin was naturally a little anxious to march, but after all, he was a soldier and a god general, and it was still a perfect perfection that only existed in the book of war.

Those Chehou who came with him were basically the second and even third generations of each family, and they all knew very well that they were here to take advantage of their military exploits, and the other was to learn something from Han Xin, the general.

After Han Xin met Liu Shen in Nanyang, he led the army towards Huainan without saying a word.

After the king of Huainan saw that the assassination of Liu Shen was exposed, he hastily pulled up the army of Huainan Kingdom.

He also sent an envoy to the state of Wu, and it was certainly not by chance that he responded to the letter of the king of Wu, but because the two had already exchanged letters.

King Wu is a smart man, from the beginning when the imperial court withdrew taxes, he knew that the imperial court would sooner or later cut the feudal domain, and from that time he began to consciously contact the princes and kings, wanting to fight against the imperial court together.

He originally wanted to survive until Han Xin died, or Luo Xin died, after all, these two people are getting older, and there is only one young emperor left, so it's not easy to deal with?

He originally thought that there was still a lot of time, and Luo Xin would hand over this matter to the emperor to do.

So he has always been vain, but he didn't expect that when the world was not fully recovered, Luo Xin would do it directly, and he would directly split the country.

Huainan Kingdom was divided into four, and in an instant, it changed from a powerful country to a medium country, and the threat to the imperial court was much smaller, and King Wu naturally did not want Wu to be like this, so he had to follow Luo Xin's footsteps and directly sent a letter calling for the princes and kings.

But the effect is not satisfactory, on the one hand, he has not been in business for long enough, the interest link is not iron enough, and the fool is not enough.

On the other hand, the King of Jiaodong in Qi was directly blocked in Qi by the Lu Clan's Che Hou, and the two supervised each other, and no one should think about making trouble.

Liu Ruyi, the king of Han, was in the most critical land, and he was still closer to the court than the princes and kings, due to the influence of Liu Ying and Luo Yi.

King Wu originally wanted to take King Yue to raise troops together, but he didn't expect that King Yue, who had always been the only one who looked to him, seemed to be unaware of this matter, and hid in the Yue Kingdom and refused to come out.

King Wu and King Huainan were all men in the country, from the age of fourteen to sixty, all of whom had to go to the battlefield, and hundreds of thousands of people had to fight with the army of the imperial court in the land of Jianghuai.

As soon as Han Xin saw so many people, he lost the interest in fighting, and he felt that the stinky fish and rotten shrimp might still overestimate them.

"I don't know the soldiers!"

This is Han Xin's evaluation of the combined forces of Huainan and Wu.

Han Xin knew too well how strong the men and horses he brought out, five thousand armored, skilled soldiers in battle, fighting the kind of army that was large in number but scattered, as long as the generals were normal, it was impossible to lose.

Unless you run into a god like Han Xin, the more the merrier.

Although he looked down on the coalition forces of the two countries in his heart, Han Xin knew that this war was not only to be won, but also to win quickly, and not to cause particularly large casualties, which was the reason why the eldest brother let him personally lead the troops.

Although these Che marquis who came with the army were not as high as their fathers, there was no problem with a word of courage and good fighting, Han Xin easily defeated the flank of the Wu army on the bank of the Huai River, and then it was a continuous collapse.

Three times in a row, the coalition forces completely collapsed.

Han Shin forcibly retracted his hand and did not cause any more killings.

The king of Wu and the king of Huainan surrender.

The kings of Huainan and Wu were directly brought back to Chang'an City, and such criminals naturally had to be judged by the emperor.

This activity was specially arranged by Luo Xin, which could be regarded as a lesson for Liu Heng and let him know why he wanted to cut the domain.

This is the first time Liu Heng has seen those Han clan relatives who are guarding in the Quartet, his relatives, and at the same time, the people who betrayed him.

King Huainan and King Wu were not embarrassed after cleaning up, but the fear in their eyes made the two of them look extremely shrunk, and they did not have the momentum of the lord of millions of people and the king of tens of thousands of tigers.

After seeing Liu Heng, the two knelt directly on the ground and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, the minister really has no heart to rebel, the minister is a relative of the Han family, and he can defend the land for you, please forgive the minister's mistakes." ”

King Huainan and King Wu both knew that although Liu Heng was not pro-government, as long as Liu Heng opened his mouth to forgive them, Prime Minister Luo Xin would not refute it.

Liu Heng is a child, children are the most soft-hearted, as long as they are emotional, they will definitely be able to survive!

The two of them thought like this in their hearts, and then they saw that Liu Heng's small body actually exuded a cold momentum, and they couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts, and a bad feeling instantly filled their hearts.

Liu Heng looked coldly at King Huainan and King Wu who begged for mercy, although he was small, he knew right from wrong, knew good and bad, and had a very high sense of honor for the world in his heart.

Now seeing the two kings like this, he only feels that he has lost the face of the Liu royal family, not to mention forgiving them, Liu Heng even wants to drag the two out directly, don't be an eyesore in front of him.

"Why the rebellion?

Isn't the royal family giving you enough grace?

This Han dynasty is the world of the Han Dynasty, which Emperor Taizu Gao was ordered by heaven and a group of founding heroes to destroy the tyrannical Qin and defeat Xiang Yu, which time is not dangerous?

Your fathers have not made an inch, but they have been distinguished and honored because of their blood relationship with Emperor Taizu Gao, and they are not satisfied?

Do you still want to come to Chang'an to sit on the throne of the emperor?

Do you still want to wear the crown of the Son of Heaven?

Then you're wrong!

Under the king, under the sky, the only son of heaven!

Emperor Gao passed it to the first emperor, and the first emperor passed it to me, and the next son of heaven must be determined by me, if I don't give it, no one can come to grab it!

Even if it is the Liu royal family, those who touch it will all die. ”

Liu Heng's voice was not high, but it was soaked in a thick anger and coolness, and there was even murder in it.

Luo Xin didn't say a word beside him, but the relief in his eyes became stronger and stronger, as a king, not being easily influenced by others is a very critical quality.

King Huainan and King Wu were a little flustered, they didn't expect Liu Heng to be so ruthless at a young age, King Huainan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, we are all relatives of the Han family, and we are your relatives, aren't we as trustworthy as those heroes?"

The minister is wronged, it is the traitorous minister in the court who is provoking the relationship between His Majesty and the minister, Your Majesty, you must be aware of it. ”

As soon as the king of Huainan opened his mouth, the king of Wu felt that he was going to suffer, and he said that it was not good, you said that there were traitors in the court.

King Wu still wanted to make amends, but Liu Heng didn't give him this opportunity, and directly roared loudly: "You are really an unrepentant evil obstacle."

Traitor?

Who is the traitor?

Do you mean my uncle, the regent?

The prime minister ruled from the time of Empress Gao, and was edicted to assist the first emperor.

He was also edicted by the first emperor, holding the Han River and Mountains with one hand and carrying me with the other, and in the past 30 years, the world has been feasting.

Going through the history books several times, this is the second king of Su!

You say that such a loyal courtier is a traitor?

Turn your heart, lungs, and intestines out and pick them up, it really stinks.

Come! ”

Liu Heng's angry voice came out far away, and the guards guarding both sides of the hall immediately stepped forward, Liu Heng waved his hand with disgust on his face and said, "Take it out, deal with it according to the Han law, I don't want to see these two evil obstacles again." ”

King Wu still wanted to say something, saying that he and King Huainan were not all the way, but the guards did not give him this opportunity, and directly covered his mouth tightly to prevent him from saying foul language that would make the emperor unhappy.

King Huainan was already stunned, he never expected it to be this ending, we are a family, we are the relatives of the Han family.

When the two kings were dragged out, Liu Heng was a little out of breath for a while, and the emotional outburst just now was still too tiring for his slightly thin body.

Liu Heng stood still for a long time, Luo Xin was by his side, and he didn't speak, I don't know how long, Liu Heng slowly came back to his senses, saw Luo Xin still standing, and hurriedly said: "I was a little distracted for a while, uncle, you are old, sit down quickly." ”

Luo Xin and Liu Heng sat down and asked with a smile, "Your Majesty must have thought a lot just now. ”

Liu Heng asked with some hesitation: "Uncle, is there really no long-term loyalty and faithfulness in this world?"

Why was there a Jijiang alliance that lasted for thousands of years during the Bangzhou period, and until the time of Empress Gao, the Luolu family could still be close.

In the past, King You of Zhou lost the country, and the princes surnamed Ji such as Jin and Zhang Guo worked together, making the position of the Zhou royal family stable again, and even if it were not for the bloody Wang Ji of King Xu, Bang Zhou would even be able to return to the old land of Fenghao in Guanzhong.

At that time, it had been more than 200 years since Bangzhou, but the Han Dynasty had only been a few decades, and it had only been three generations, and the princes and kings had separated from the royal family that gave land to such a point.

I don't understand!

I'm really puzzled!

Uncle, your wisdom is thorough, please help me solve my doubts. ”

Liu Heng's eyes were full of confusion, just looking at Luo Xin, Luo Xin looked at Liu Heng and sighed slightly, and said secretly in his heart: Because that is the Bang Zhou established by King Wu and King Su, the Mandate of Bang Zhou is the Mandate of Heaven of the Luo Family, and now it is the Han Dynasty established by Liu Bang.

There is a difference between intimacy and intimacy.

But Luo Xin naturally couldn't say that, he groaned slightly, and then sang: "King Su's gods are in the sky, and Bang Zhou's destiny is ten thousand years!" ”

Luo Xinjiao studied this hymn of his, which is also recorded in the classics of the hundred schools, and he knew that it was used on the most important occasions of the Bang Zhou period.

But what does it have to do with his current problems?

I only heard Luo Xin sing again: "The gods of King Su are in the sky, and the glory of Zhuxia is ten thousand years." ”

Bang Zhou and Zhu Xia.

The end of Bang Zhou is Zhuxia.

There is no big man!

Liu Heng understood a little, and he didn't understand a little.

But he knew that the Lu family was not special, the princes surnamed Ji were not special, and the special one was the Luo family.

The key pivot in maintaining relations between the Zhou royal family and these allies was Luo's.

"Uncle."

Liu Heng bowed to Luo Xin again and said sincerely: "Thanks to you." ”

————

In the founding period of the Han Dynasty, Donghou Luoxin was the most critical founder, and he ruled for a long time, with deep political prestige and high ability to govern the country.

He came to power during the reign of the second de facto ruler of the Han Dynasty, the Later Lü Dynasty, and formulated a series of dynastic fiscal and taxation systems, during which Huang Lao and Confucianism came into power, and of course the most prominent were the Qi Legalists, who were good at finance.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Luo Xin began to deal with the problem of princes and kings who could not be eliminated, and the cutting of feudal domains was an eternal theme in ancient history.

The central court always tried to reduce the excessive power of the local government, but Luo Xin's reduction of the feudal domain was different, after quelling the rebellion of the Huainan and Wu kings, he did not directly make the local entities dependent on the central government, but retained a certain degree of autonomy, but only abolished the pre-Qin period and the Liu Bang period of the fiefdom method, and turned to a form of exile.

It can be seen from his decrees and subsequent policies that his aim was to create a dynamic balance between the central court and the localities, to reduce internal friction and increase vitality, to maintain the fighting power of the permanent proprietary, that is, the aristocracy, and in this way to slow down the pace of land annexation, and his reforms can be said to be very successful. ——"The History of the Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
