-------- Introduction
Soon it was the spring of the sixth year of Yonghe, although it was the season of spring flowers, but Yecheng showed no signs of harmony, and Shi Min's situation became more and more dangerous.
In the first month, under the pretext of "following Zhao Li", he ordered to change Zhao Guo to Wei, change the surname Shi to Li, amnesty the world, and change Yuan Qinglong. More than 10,000 people, including Zhao Dazai Zhao Shu, Taiwei Zhang Ju, General Zhang Chun of the Chinese Army, Shi Yue, Doctor Guanglu, Shi Ning of Fujun and Gonghou, Qing, Colonel, and Longteng Army, went out to Xiangguo, but Shi Kun, the king of Ruyin, ran to Jizhou. Fujun generals Zhang Shen according to Fukou, Zhang Hedu according to Shidu, Jianyi general Duan Qin according to Liyang, Ningnan general Yang Qun according to Sangbi, Liu Guo according to Yangcheng, Duan Gong according to Chen Liu, Yao Yizhong according to Dunqiu, Pu Hong according to Fangtou, did not buy Shi Min's account. Among them, the most powerful are Pu Hong in Fangtou and Yao Yizhong in Dunqiu.
In order to return to Guanlong, these two began to move east in July. Yao Gezhong made the fastest move, not only did some of his troops have already moved south to Yanzhou, Henan, but his main tent and main troops and horses have also moved to Dunqiu, Hebei. Pu Hong was much more steady, and his main tent was still in Fangtou, but he sent his son, Pu Jian, the general of Long Xiang, as the vanguard to Hanoi.
Ma Qiu and Wang Lang were eating in Hanoi with 10,000 right cavalry, and when they heard Shi Min's order to kill Hu, they immediately killed hundreds of Hu officers and generals in the team, and then prepared to lead the army back to Yecheng. As a result, he met Pu Jian's troops in the west of Yewang City, and the two fought, Ma Qiu made persistent efforts and continued the legend of the often defeated general, the soldiers and horses were defeated, and he was captured alive, but Wang Lang took advantage of the chaos to run away and went straight to Xiangguo.
Immediately afterwards, Ruyin Wang Shi Kun and Zhang Ju and Wang Lang led an army of 70,000 to the south to attack Ye, and the general Shi Min led more than 1,000 elite cavalry to meet the battle in the north of the city. Shi Min held a two-edged spear, unstoppable, invincible, beheaded more than 3,000 people, Shi Kun and others fled in defeat.
In the first month of the leap month, Shi Min turned around and led Li Nong to lead 30,000 cavalry to defeat Zhang Hedu, who was in Shidu, and the two armies fought a big battle, regardless of victory or defeat. At this time, the Wei lord Shi Jian secretly sent eunuchs to pass a letter to Zhang Shen and others, asking them to take advantage of Shi Min to crusade against Zhang Hedu and attack Yecheng. Who knew that the eunuch was Shi Min's person, and reported it to Shi Min overnight. Shi Min and Li Nong immediately led the army back to Yecheng, first abolished Shi Jian, and then cut him and Shi Hu's thirty-eight grandsons together, and killed the Shi clan in Yecheng cleanly.
Yao Yizhong's two sons, Yaowu General Yao Yi and Wuwei General Yao Ruo, led thousands of forbidden soldiers to take advantage of the chaos to seize the gate and rush back to Dunqiu. Yao Yizhong immediately crusaded against Shi Min in the name of avenging the first emperor, and the army was stationed in Neihuang.
Shi Min and his subordinates wrote to Shi Min in the name that the world could not be left without an owner for a day, asking him to succeed to the throne. Shi Min first gave the throne to Li Nong. How dare Li Nong accept this position? I don't want to die. Then Shi Min excused himself again: "We were originally from the Jin Dynasty, and now the Jin family is still in Jiangnan, why don't we guard the county and state with you, each called pastor, guard, duke, and marquis, and then go to the table to welcome the Son of Heaven and Luoyang?" ”
Shangshu Hu Mu persuaded: "Your Majesty's holy virtue is unparalleled, and in accordance with the will of heaven, you should ascend the throne and inherit the great treasure." Now that the Jin clan is in decline and is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, how can the heroes of the world surrender and dominate the four seas? After Shi Min listened, he thought for a long time before saying, "Hu Shangshu's words really know the secret of heaven." So he became the emperor, granted amnesty to the world, changed the Yuan Yongxing, and the country was called Dawei.
The Jiankang Imperial Court heard of the chaos in the Central Plains, and Guan You promised that he would not send troops easily, so he hurriedly planned another northern expedition. Ji Chou, with Yangzhou Assassin Shi Yin Hao as the general of the Chinese army, False Festival, Du Governor Yang, Henan, Xu, Yan, Qing five states of the military, with Pu Hong as the king, envoy Jie, general of the expedition to the north, Governor of Hebei Military, Jizhou History, Guangchuan County Duke; Pu Jian was a false festival, the right general, and the prisoner of Hebei to conquer the forward military and Xiangguo Gong. The north and the south echoed, and the Northern Expedition was pledged.
Ma Qiu, who was sent to Fangtou, was let go by his old acquaintance Pu Hong, and was worshiped as a military general. And Ma Qiu, in order to please the new master and be worthy of his title of military general, made a good plan to persuade Pu Hongdao: "Now that Yecheng and Xiangguo are fighting endlessly, I am afraid that there will be no peaceful days in the Central Plains, and adults don't have to be deeply involved." Now the Jin Liangzhou Assassin took advantage of the chaos to obtain Guanyou, which was really a fluke, and there was no foundation. The adult was originally Guan Long, and most of his subordinates were Guan You's surnames and heroes, with far-reaching roots. As long as the army goes straight in, it will definitely be able to take all the passes. At that time, the foundation has been solidified, and then the army will be waved eastward, who can be the enemy in the world? ”
Pu Hong worried: "I have already received the official position of the Jin family, if I directly take Guan You, it is already a rebellion, I am afraid that I will be ridiculed by the world." ”
Ma Qiu persuaded again: "Strength is everything. Now that the adults don't take the right pass, when the Jinliang Prefecture Thorn History is stable there, it will be difficult for the adults to take it again. It's better to temporarily go to the official position of the Jin family, call yourself a name, and then call yourself a minister to the Jin family after taking Guan You, who can say anything? ”
Pu Hong couldn't help but be overjoyed, and went to the official position of the Jin family on the same day, calling himself the governor of the capital, the general, the great single Yu, and the king of the three Qins, and changed his surname to Fu. with Lei Qiaoer as an auxiliary general; Liang Chun is a former general, leading the left long history; Yu Zun is the right general, leading the right long history; Duan Ling is the general of the left, leading the left Sima; Wang fell to the right general, leading the right Sima; Zhao Ju, Niu Yi, and Xin Lao are all engaged in Zhonglang; Mao Gui is a single complementary.
Hearing that Pu Hong called himself the king of the three Qins, Yao Gezhong did not agree, and immediately sent his fifth son Yao Xiang to lead 30,000 troops from Dunqiu to attack Fangtou, but Pu Hong personally led troops to meet the head-on attack, and was defeated on the bank of Baigou Water, with more than half of the dead and wounded, and Yao Xiang had to lead the remnants back to Dunqiu. Yao Gezhong knew that he could no longer compete with Puhong, so he simply moved to Puyang, Henan Province and made plans again.
Compared to the movement in the Kanto, Kanto is relatively quiet. Since he took over the eldest princess of Guiyang and Yu Gui in November, Zeng Hua officially accepted various official positions, and became a groom again on the auspicious day of the first month. However, when he knew that the eldest princess of Guiyang was only fourteen years old, he immediately had no thoughts about the cave room. Although Zeng Hua is a normal man who does not refuse to come to beautiful women, he has not been perverted to the point that he does not even let go of "underage girls". So he chose a spacious and beautiful back garden in his mansion for the eldest princess of Guiyang to live in, and then raised it.
But what is more depressing is that he has no way to go back to Nanzheng to see his newborn son and two wives, Fan Min and Zhenxiu. After all, Zeng Hua's reason for resigning back to Jiankang was that Guan You was unstable and needed to sit in Chang'an, since there was no way to leave such an important official matter, there was no reason to leave for private affairs. And it will soon be winter, and the mountain roads in Qinling will be very difficult to walk in winter, and the connection between Liang and Yongzhou is likely to be interrupted due to heavy snow blocking the mountains, and if something happens in Guanzhong at that time, Zeng Hua can only stare at Nanzhenggan. So Zeng Hua had no choice but to hold back his longing, and a letter was delivered by the post post in a few days.
Zeng Hua had already explained to Fan Min about the eldest princess of Shang Guiyang in his letter. Fan Min also knew that this was a political marriage, and it was also a means for the Jin family to win over her husband, which was really helpless. Moreover, the imperial court also named herself the lady of Wuling County, and she was on an equal footing with the eldest princess of Guiyang, so there was nothing to say about this step.
Soon, spring came, and the news of the chaos in the Kanto region came one by one, and the personnel of the Horse Exploration Division and the Reconnaissance Department were active in the Kanto region, digging up a lot of inside information, including the Shi Min situation that Zeng Hua was very concerned about. But when he heard Hu Mu persuade Shi Min to be emperor, he couldn't help but sigh: "Hu Mu should be killed!" Shi Min, you're too anxious. ”
Che Yin, Wang Meng and others were immediately summoned to discuss countermeasures.
"Shi Min is Shi Hu's adopted grandson, who once killed my Jin family soldiers and civilians, and he is also a thief, so he should be punished!" Che Yin is a typical representative of the Jin family, and he doesn't have a good impression of Shi Min.
"Shi Min now occupies the land of the four wars, whether he is called the emperor or not, it is the target of everyone, at present, Shi Min should have the strength to fight against those remnants of Shi Hu, and this situation is a benefit for us. Now the biggest threat to the Central Plains is not in Shi Min, not in Shi Sin, but in the Yan Kingdom in the north. Wang Meng pointed out the key point.
"Yes, Shi Min is indeed a dumb move, but now that he has been called, there is no way, I admire his courage and courage. Now we have to keep an eye on him, he is now the most crucial figure in the Central Plains. As Mr. Jing Luo said, now Shi Hu's remnants have no way to fight him, the key is Yan Guo, this Murong Xianbei has been peeping at the Central Plains for a day or two, if he takes advantage of Shi Min and Shi Hu's remnants to fight and lose, it will be a big trouble. Zeng Hua said with a frown.
Wang Meng and Che Yin nodded and agreed, although Che Yin had a bad impression of Shi Min, it was always a little better than Murong Xianbei's "white captives".
"As for Pu Hong and Yao Gezhong, according to my opinion, they must first gain a firm foothold in Hanoi, Henan before they can attack our Guanyou, and they will not be able to get out of the dispute between Xiangguo and Yecheng, so if it is calculated, at least after the autumn harvest this year or next year, it is possible to attack our Guanyou on a large scale, and we still have several months to train and strengthen our defense." Wang Meng pondered the threat from the east again.
"In that case, we still have time to stabilize the situation, so we need to continue to pick up the pace and strengthen our foundations. The uniform field system has been fully implemented, and preparations for spring plowing have begun in various localities. The work of the Guanfeng Reporting Department should also be strengthened, and vigorously publicize the atrocities of the Qianhu and the Han, Qiang, Di, and Xiongnu as one family. Pu Hong and Yao Gezhong have a very high prestige among the Di and Qiang people, and we must break this prestige, starting with the brutality of the Qiang, only to let the Qiang and Di people realize that they and the people of the Central Plains are one family, and they are both oppressed and brutalized by the Qiang, so that they will naturally resist Pu Hong and Yao Gezhong, who have been following Shi Hu. However, there is still a long way to go in this task, and we must continue to work hard. There are also county schools and county schools in various places that must be improved this year, and Zhou Li did not say that gentlemen and scholars should deeply study the six arts of etiquette, music, archery, riding, calligraphy, and mathematics, and the county schools and county schools should teach more of these things. Once again, I make it clear that etiquette cultivates virtue through etiquette; Music cultivates sentiment through music; archery, riding, archery, horseback riding skills, etc., to exercise physique; Books use calligraphy and literature to improve self-cultivation; Mathematics is based on arithmetic and miscellaneous learning. The county school and the county school should be based on the six arts to teach and learn. Don't be afraid of noise, this is my territory, of course I'm in charge. Zeng Hua shouted loudly. He knew in his heart that the current Confucianism is not as strong and stubborn as that of later generations, and the current academic atmosphere is a bit of a "Confucianism anyway", and the scholars in Guanlong are dying and fleeing, and the rest are almost starving, if they dare to shout with Zeng Hua, Zeng Hua dares to starve them all to death.
"Now we have more than 30,000 people with the Qianghu and other whites, it's time to clean it up, I don't like to feed these people with food. Shi Min will kill in the east, and we will kill in the west, but we must convince people with reason, and we must kill him more justifiably than him. Zeng Hua continued.
Wang Meng, Che Yin and others did not have a good impression of Qianhu, and immediately agreed to Zeng Hua's proposal.
On the second day, Zeng Hua issued an order to ask for Hu: "The Xiongnu, the descendants of their ancestor Xia Hou's family, are also called Chunwei; Qiang, Di, the ancient Rong people, Rong and Xia people have the same ancestor, all from the Yellow Emperor; The rest of the Chinese people, either from the ancient Emperor of Yan and Huang, or from the remnants of Jiuli, have the same root and blood, and the people of Stusi are originally a family. In the past thousand years, the dispute between Yixia and Xia has been disputed, and the blood has flowed like a river, which is really cannibalism. Therefore, the Hu people are in rebellion and cruel to the people, is it not sent by heaven?
The white beard, with a high nose, deep eyes, or blue-eyed blonde hair, originates from other places, and is really of a different race. Leading beasts to eat people, Ru Mao drinks blood, rudeness, barbarian tribes. Mu my Chinese civilization, moved to the Central Plains, should be law-abiding and moral, but the wolf ambition, taking advantage of the internal strife in China to steal the Central Plains, steal my artifact, or regard the Central Plains Xia people as pigs and dolphins, or drive the remote Qiang as lackeys, wanton mutilation, bloody China, and regard the Chinese people as dogs, pigs, cattle and horses. The temple is in ruins, the living beings are scattered, and the people are looking sideways.
Today, the Tao is circulating, justice should be done, the world is rising, the Quartet is fierce, and the world's heroes are fighting in the bloody. Because the world is the world of China, and the world is not the world of Hulu; The food and clothing of those who are Chinese are not the food and clothing of Hulu; The children of the people are the children of China, and the children of the people who are not Hulu.
The general of Beida in today's Jin Town once ordered all the prefectures and counties under his jurisdiction to reorganize their troops and horses, Luo Luo realm, and inspect the sentry pass. All those with high noses, deep eyes, or blue eyes and blond hair shall be arrested, their bodies shall be verified, their crimes shall be analyzed, and punishment shall be judged on the severity of their crimes, but those who dare to be called soldiers shall be beheaded! ”
Zeng Hua then ordered the Qihu to be imprisoned in teams of two or three hundred according to their tribe and original place of residence, and let them expose each other's crimes, and they knew each other better anyway. The whistleblower is counted as a meritorious service, and if he is exposed by others, he can be exempted from the crime by one level. But if none of the men were willing to expose each other, the sergeant in charge would not hesitate to bury them all alive.
Under such a thunderbolt method, the crimes of more than 30,000 people were revealed one by one, and only a few more than 7,000 people had no blood debts in their hands. Zeng Hua gave an order, more than 25,000 carats and whitebeards were in different places, the corpses were burned clean by a fire, and the heads were piled up into more than 100 mounds, and a large stone tablet stood next to each mound, explaining the crimes of these carats one by one, and the last sentence was the same, all of which were "All those who killed my Chinese people were slaughtered here!" "The remaining 7,000 or so were either guilty of minor crimes, or had been exposed for meritorious work, or had already been commuted, or were women and children, and were either sent to mines for mining or pastures for animal husbandry, and all of them were punished for labor.
In March, just as Zeng Hua continued to be busy and dizzy, an urgent report came from the west, Liangzhou with Shen Meng, the general of the southern expedition, as the main commander, Wang Cheng as the guide vanguard, smuggled across the Yellow River, captured Shangqu Pass, the left guard general Xu Dang led the two-box infantry army to retreat to Jincheng (now Lanzhou West), the left general, Qinzhou Thorn Shi Mao Muzhihui Yangwu general Le Changshan, Guangwu general Wei Xingguo led the four-compartment infantry army to the north to help, and has now arrived in Didao (now Lintao, Gansu).
