Huan Chong has always had great hopes for Xie An, and wants to let him go out with Yangzhou.

---------- excerpt from the introduction

In the summer of the first year of Ningkang, it was the auspicious day of the zodiac, and Sun Tai, the Ming Dao sacrificial wine, opened the altar on the Huiji Mountain in Huiji Mountain, Yin City, Huiji, and did a great job.

Shi Xi of Huiji was good at Taoism, and knew such a grand event in the dojo, so he immediately met with Jiaxing Gong Gu Yin, Nankang Gong Xie Minghui, Huangmen Shilang Xie Chong, Zhang Kun, Zhongshulang Kong Dao, Prince Xima Kongfu and other high-ranking officials and dignitaries near Wujun to participate. Who knew that Sun Tai had ambushed thousands of soldiers near the dojo, and suddenly killed him by raising the flag.

The nobles panicked, Xi was taken aback, grabbed Sun Tai next to him and asked what was going on? At this time, Sun Tai was already in a fierce state, and he did not have the appearance of compassion for the heavens when he was using magic and preaching. (He threw Xi away from the academy and said coldly: "I am an immortal saint, and I have already received the mandate of heaven. After speaking, he ordered Xi and the others to be hacked to death with knives left and right.

Looking at Sun Tai, who was full of hideous faces, and the believer sergeant who rushed over next to him, Xi's heart was full of despair and remorse. In the past few years, there have always been people who have reported to themselves, saying that Sun Tai has hoarded food over the years, prepared for military armor, and committed many misdeeds. It's a pity that Xi always thinks that some people have bad intentions, deliberately spread rumors, and frame Mr. Mingdao Grand Sacrifice Wine, because in the eyes of Xi, a fanatical admirer of Wudoumi. Mingdao Great Sacrifice Wine is a master of Wudoumi Taoism, a real master outside the world, how could there be such a rebellious move. Xi reprimanded the informants at that time, and strictly forbade them to make noise in his ears again. After doing this, Xi also burned two more pillars of incense in front of the Tianguan tablet.

The steel knife that came over interrupted Xi's train of thought, and the sergeant who got the order didn't pay any attention to the cries of Xi and the others, and a burst of knives regarded these nobles as meat sauce. (College.)

Sun Tai took advantage of the situation to attack the city of Shanyin in Huiji County, occupied the county of Huiji, and collected more than 500 people from more than 20 families such as Kong, Wang, Lu, and Shen in the city, and executed them to death, and then cut them into meat dumplings, and then issued an order, but all the pawns wanted to "abandon the darkness and turn to the light". You must eat these meat dumplings, and those who don't eat them just want to be loyal to the Jin family, and immediately cut them with thousands of knives, and thousands of soldiers are all awe-inspiring, and they all endure the food. Throw yourself under Sun Tai's door.

Sun Tai collected more than 10,000 serfs from the servants of various families, organized them into his own army, and then called himself the general of Zhengdong and the pastor of Yangzhou. More than 100 generals and guards were separated, and it was rumored that they had won the favor of heavenly officials, earth officials, and water officials. In the near future, he will become a narcissus, but anyone who follows him will have eternal life, so he calls his disciples and soldiers "immortals".

The Wudoumi Taoists of Sanwu mostly believe in the way of longevity and long-term vision, believe in the three senses of heaven, earth and water, and especially believe in narcissus. (So says Sun Tai of the Academy.) The believers in the eight counties of Huiji, Wujun, Wuxing, Yixing, Linhai, Yongjia, Dongyang and Xin'an all shouted and cheered. Officials were killed one after another, and the east of Zhejiang almost changed the sky for a while.

Sun Tai sent people to attack Shangyu, Yuyao, Juzhang, Yongxing, and Zhuji Zhucheng in Huiji County. Believers from all over the country and tenants from various families responded one after another, raising troops to raise an uprising, killing officials and cities, and all the cities fell into the hands of Sun Jun one by one.

When Sun Tai heard a few good news, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said to his side: "There is no big thing in the world, and in a few days, we will go to Jiankang in the official uniform of the imperial court." ”

Shi Diao Yi in Wu County received an urgent report, and while reporting to Jiankang, he immediately ordered the garrisons of Wuxing, Wu County and other counties to take action, and gathered at Wucheng County in Wuxing County to prepare to quell the rebellion.

Sun Tai seized the timing of this incident very skillfully. Although the imperial court was already suspicious of Sun Tai, and awarded Diao Yi of Wu as the general of Zhonglang and the military of the third Wu, he was ready to cut it off. But because there were too many people involved, Diao Yi didn't dare to start easily, just waiting for an opportunity there.

And this time is the critical moment of Yangzhou's power alternation. Huan Chongjian resigned from Yangzhou and gave up the last piece of territory of the imperial court from the hands of the Huan family. The imperial court also did not hesitate to take the "olive branch" extended by Huan Chong, with Xie An as the history of Yangzhou Thorn, and another grant Huan Chong as the history of Xuzhou Thorn, and moved to Jingkou. The high-ranking families in all parts of Sanwu cheered, feeling that the situation was very good, and various places were also transferring power. Sun Tai chose such an opportunity to do something, which can be said to be deliberate.

However, the response of the imperial court can be regarded as very fast, after all, Sun Tai started an incident in the land of Sanwu, and the eight counties involved are the last "self-reserved land" of the imperial court.

In the summer of June, more than 20,000 troops gathered in Qiantang, and Wuxing County, Wu County, Danyang and other counties also began to pacify the followers of Sun Tai from all walks of life. (College.)

There are tens of thousands of followers in the eight counties of Yangzhou, who have destroyed their homes and joined forces, and flocked to the holy city of Taoism in their hearts, Huiji Shanyin City, from all directions. Due to the pursuit of officers and soldiers, many followers of believers carrying weak old and young babies had no choice but to drown the weak old and young babies in the water in order not to affect the speed of the procession, and prayed solemnly: "You will go to the immortal hall first, and we will come to look for you and others later." ”

In autumn and August, more than 30,000 believers gathered in Shanyin City, and the tenants of the tribe that came with it were 100,000 huge.

In the summer and June, after Sun Tai swept most of Huiji County, he immediately raised his "rat gall" and launched an attack on Ningbo Port, because the goods and treasures there were too tempting, and more than half of the wealth of Sanwu was concentrated in this harbor town, and according to "reliable information", there was no imperial army stationed in Ningbo Port, only more than 1,000 soldiers in Beifu. After several preparations, Sun Tai led an "army" of 10,000 in late June to rush to the port of Ningbo.

Due to the delicate status of Ningbo Port, Beifu did not dare to build a city wall rashly, but only used the foundation of the original Wanghai Town to build a wooden fence and a sentry arrow tower. It seems that its defenses are far inferior to the nearby counties of Shangyu, Juzhang and other Huiji counties. Sun Tai led his army to Ningbo Port, and felt that it should be easy to take this rich town in one fell swoop, so he waved his hand, and the formation of the 5,000-strong army was saved. &&Junacademy lined up in several lines and rushed straight over. Who knew that when it was less than 100 meters close to the wooden fence, the overwhelming rain of arrows shot the five thousand brave Sun rebels to the point of crying wolf, and the black iron arrows were enough to penetrate the Sun rebel soldiers who were wearing messy iron armor and leather armor. After several rounds of arrow rain, even the war horses under Sun Tai's seat knew that there were not only more than 1,000 people in Ningbo Harbor, but at least five or six thousand.

The 6,000 Beifu Navy Stormtroopers rushed out of the wooden wall of Ningbo Port in a vigorous formation, confirming the conjecture of Sun Tai and others with facts. When he saw a leather armor, holding a sailor knife, and a sailor from Beifu who was surrounded by a chain of crossbows, slowly walking towards him with steady steps, Sun Tai didn't say a word. Turning the horse's head, he left behind thousands of his remnants and his followers, and ran away. He knew very well in his heart that it was the regular army of the imperial court, when facing the six thousand Beifu army. (Even if the academy has a numerical advantage of 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses, it may not be able to win, not to mention his own more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, so Sun Tai saw the Beifu army attack.) Let's run first.

Facts have once again proved that Sun Tai is indeed a master of Taoism. Once again, he gave full play to his "prescient" skills. When thousands of remnants of the army were first demoralized by the rain of arrows like the May rainstorm, and then panicked because the commander had fled, a cavalry of hundreds of people rushed out of the wooden gate of Ningbo Harbor, brandishing sabers and roaring. These rebels grew up in the land of Sanwu since they were children, and rarely saw cavalry. Suddenly, he saw a murderous cavalry rushing towards him. There was only one year in my mind, escape!

After Sun Tai fled back to San'in City in one go. There were less than 1,000 remnants of the defeated army left, and he never had the courage to fight Ningbo again. At this time, Sun Tai suddenly remembered his teacher, Master Du Ming, who was still in Qiantang, if he could bring in this teacher of the "sect master" level whose reputation was far greater than his own, wouldn't he be able to gather more believers and followers?

So Sun Tai immediately led thousands of men and horses to the west to Qiantang to pick up his teacher, who knew that there were still dozens of miles away from Qiantang and received information that Qiantang City had been taken over by the Beifu Navy. (College.)

The first detachment of the Fourth Fleet of the Beifu Navy was stationed in Qiantang Port to replenish supplies, and when it heard that Sun Tai led the army to Qiantang and rushed to Qiantang, he immediately took over the defense of Qiantang City, on the grounds that there were many Beifu merchants and trading companies in the city, and the Beifu Navy had the responsibility to protect their personal and property safety. Moreover, when I heard that Sun Tai was here to pick up Du Mingshi, the Beifu Navy simply did not stop doing anything, and took all the dozens of members of Du Zigong's family to the sea ship and sent them directly to Dinghai Port, the largest base of the Beifu Navy in Jiangzuo.

Sun Tai heard that there were at least 3,000 Beifu soldiers in Qiantang City, and he couldn't help but scold angrily, but he knew that although there were only 3,000 Beifu troops in Qiantang City, Qiantang City was not as good as Ningbo Port, only wooden walls and fences, where the city was high and thick, plus 3,000 strong Beifu troops, if you want to attack without 20,000 or 30,000 troops, you don't have to think about it. (Sun Tai of the academy could only scold again, and then returned to Shanyin City in a huff.)

In late summer and August, Diao Yi, the general of Wu County Neishi and Dongzhonglang, saw that the gathering place of the counterinsurgency army was almost over, so he got up and went to Wucheng, preparing to lead the army south and pacify the rebellious army of Sun Tai in one fell swoop. Who knew that when he was less than dozens of miles out of the city, he was ambushed and the whole army was annihilated, and it was Lu Wei, another leader of Wudou Midao, who ambushed him.

Lu Wei was originally a native of Pengcheng, Xuzhou, and after the Beifu occupied Pengcheng, Lu Wei led more than 800 family members and believers to the south and defected to the Jiangzuo court. Because most of the ministers of the DPRK and China are good people, and Lu Wei is the big leader of Wudoumi Taoist Xuzhou, he has long admired him, so he placed Lu Wei and his people in the rich Wu County, which can be regarded as a kind of preferential treatment.

But Lu Wei is also an ambitious person, he originally had a different heart when he was in Pengcheng, but the northern mansion was too strong, and he just went south in disgrace. After arriving in Wu County, he devoted himself to preaching, and also accepted thousands of new believers. Later, when Sun Tai got into trouble, Lu Wei immediately expressed his loyalty to Diao Yi and the imperial court, expressing his determination to draw a line with Sun Tai and his scum. Diao Yi and the imperial court knew that Wudou Midao was powerful in Jiangzuo, but they didn't dare to force it too much.

Lu Wei was silent for several months, and when Diao Yi was about to go to Wucheng to take up his post, he sent his disciple Xu Long to lead 3,000 elite soldiers to ambush on the side of the road, and in one fell swoop, he broke Diao Yi's escort sergeant and killed Diao Yi and his personnel. Then he rose up, occupied Wu County, killed Wu County Ling Xie Wan and Yushi Gu Yun, claimed to be the general of Dadao Sacrifice Wine and Zhendong, supported the abolition of Emperor Haixi's false title, set up hundreds of officials, and awarded Sun Tai as the Duke of Linhai, Yangzhou Thorn History, and General of Zhengdong, and issued an edict to the world, requiring the king of Qin in various places, and punishing the puppet emperor and puppet dynasty of Jiankang.

Lu Wei collected dozens of Gaomen families, killed them all, and then collected tens of thousands of original family members and tenants, waved his army south, and broke through Wujun Jiaxing, Wuxing Wucheng and other places, killing Wu Xingtai Shou Xie Miao, Jiaxing Ling Sima Yi, and Wucheng Ling Xiahou.

And Sun Tai knew that after Lu Wei's uprising, he couldn't help but be shocked, collected 30,000 soldiers and horses, known as more than 200,000, waved his army to the north, and captured Fuchun, Lin'an, Tonglu, Jiande, and finally met with Lu Wei's "Zhendong Army" in Wukang, Wuxing County, and then pushed Sun Tai as the main commander, Lu Wei as the deputy marshal, and the whole army marched to Danyang, and captured Yangxian (now Yixing, Jiangsu), Yongshi and other cities in one fell swoop, and the soldiers pointed directly at Jiankang. Everywhere the army went, they all killed the families of local officials, plundered property, and burned down warehouses and houses.

Jiankang was terrified, martial law inside and outside, and hundreds of officials were not allowed to go home, eating and living in their respective office departments of the palace. The weapons and armor were sent to the palace maids, who prepared for war with all their might, and swore to defend Jiankang to the death. Edict: Xuzhou Assassin Shi Huan Chong immediately led the army south from Jingkou to conquer the Sanwu rebels in order to falsely conquer the governor of Dadu.

ordered the champion general Gao Su and the right guard general Zhang Chongzhi to defend the stone; Liu Xi, the auxiliary general, was in charge of the gate breaking; Danyang Yin Wang Luo guarded the south bank, Shang Shufu shot Xie Shi, champion general Xie Qian, and auxiliary general Sima Yunzhi guarded Baishi; The general of the left army, Huan Ji, the general of the left guard, the general of the left guard, the leading general Kong Anguotun Zhongtang, and the king of Qiao, Sima Shangzhi, led the guards. It was rumored that Shi Huanxi, the assassin of Southern Yuzhou, led the army to strictly defend the perimeter outside the city, forming a barrier to Jiankang.

Huan Xi and Wang Luo said that Jiankang's troops, please transfer elite troops from Jingkou, just in case. The emperor passed the edict and ordered the Jin Ling Tai Shouhuan to lead the Jingkou soldiers to aid Jiankang with 5,000 speeds and stationed them outside the city.
