Chapter 2 The Inexplicable Hun Traitor--Xiongnu "Wang Yun"
Chapter 2 The Inexplicable Strange Hun Traitor--Xiongnu "Wang Yun"
Jin Zhun, a Xiongnu ethnic group, started with two daughters with beautiful faces and moon appearances, became Liu Cong's father-in-law, and became the number one noble of the Xiongnu Liu Han regime.
In the history of the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, this Jin Zhun has left N historical mysteries, which are still like seeing flowers in the fog and looking at the moon in the water, confusing, even Na Ying can't see through or figure it out.
Although Liu Cong dotes on Jin Zhun's daughter Jin Yueguang, after all, there are too many beauties in the harem, and she can't be busy for a while. The queen Jin Yueguang has already gradually entered the year of the tiger and wolf from the beginning of love, and her physiological needs are strong.
You don't have time to spend time with me in the wind and snow, the spring breeze, then I will go to the Hulunbuir grassland to find a touch of spring color and give it to you personally. The moonlight finally darkened in the spring breeze, and the red apricot came out of the wall, and the object was a guard in the palace.
Chen Yuanda, the minister who was demoted for advising Liu Congli too much, may be a Scorpio, more vindictive, black-bellied, and used the paparazzi in the palace to collect a lot of evidence, and one of them went to Liu Cong.
Dare to cuckold the emperor!
Liu Cong, who was furious, threw the file of the "Han Jin Yueguang Empress Cheating Case" produced by Chen Yuanda on Jin Yueguang's face and let him inspect it for himself. In the case file, it is mainly the testimony of witnesses and the statements of co-defendants. Jin Yueguang, whose face was pale, glanced at the evidence catalog, and did not express any cross-examination opinions on the evidence, but just knelt on the ground and cried.
This amounts to a voluntary confession of guilt.
At that time, I didn't know if there was a system of leniency for those who admit guilt and accept punishment and a criminal policy of blending leniency and severity, but anyway, the victim and presiding judge Liu Cong brushed his sleeves away, preparing to announce the verdict at a later date.
However, the next day, Jin Yueguang committed suicide by taking poison. "I've been married to you for two years, and I'm not as happy as two nights with my senior brother. My brother is dead, and I don't want to live anymore", Pan Qiaoyun, one of the "Shuangpan" fighters in "Water Margin", angrily scolded her husband Yang Xiong's sad and indignant words, which may represent the mentality of this type of woman.
Yang Xiong, known as "Sick Guan Suo", "sleeps in prison for more than 20 days a month", should be because of physical problems to escape from married life; And Liu Cong has too many flowers that need to be watered, and he will inevitably neglect one of them. Women would rather carry yi on their backs for this
Women are infamous and lose their lives, and they do not hesitate to try the "family law" and "national law" in the form of moths to the fire, looking for the trembling at that moment and the long-term tenderness brought by it.
Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic. Hateful? Let the benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise will see the wise.
Jin Yueguang committed suicide because of the "crime of cuckolding the Son of Heaven", but after all, Jin Zhun also had a daughter, Jin Yuehua, who was still favored, so it did not affect his status in the palace, and he began to toss endlessly against the Xiongnu Liu Han regime.
The first breakthrough in tossing is Liu Yi, the successor to the throne and the emperor's younger brother.
Liu Cong named Liu Yi as the emperor's younger brother and nominal successor, who is the most dissatisfied? Of course, it is Liu Cang, Liu Cong's son. Jin Zhun had long been aware of this, and he united with Wang Shen to jointly incite Liu Cang to frame Liu Yi.
The process of framing is basically cliché, and it is the same as the framing procedure summarized in the sunflower treasure book "Luo Weaving Jing" written by the cool official Lai Junchen in the Tang Dynasty.
First, he framed Liu Yi for rebellion and arrested him. As for the evidence, everyone has caught it, and they can weave as much evidence as they want, and a complete chain of evidence can always be formed, meeting the verdict standard that the facts of the rebellion are clear and the evidence is credible and sufficient.
After all, Liu Yi has a special identity, and in order to collect evidence, Jin Zhun took great pains.
The first is to extract witness testimony.
According to the Xiongnu official system, Liu Yi had a special title - "Da Shan Yu", and the Di and Qiang nobles who were attached to the Xiongnu were under Liu Yi's control.
Jin Zhun set his sights on these two foreign clans. He arrested more than a dozen Di and Qiang nobles who were in Beijing, tortured them, and forced them to confess the "facts" of Liu Yi's rebellion. In this way, although there is only verbal evidence, after all, there are many witness testimonies, and the testimony is highly "consistent" with each other, which at least meets the standard of approving arrest.
The second is to obtain physical evidence by fraud.
Jin Zhun asked Liu Cang to tell Liu Yi that there would be a rebellion in the Jingshi, and quickly asked the people of the palace to wear armor under their clothes in case of accidents. How can Liu Yi not believe his nephew's words? Do so.
This trick is extremely vicious. Because, in ancient times, it was a felony to possess armor, and the circumstances were much more serious than the concealment of weapons. Why?
You have a bow and arrow in your house, so to speak, for hunting; Keeping an axe in private, it can be said that it is used to chop wood; Privately hiding a sword, gun, sword and halberd, it can be said that it is used to practice martial arts. Hide a piece of armor, what are you doing with it? What's the use of this thing other than going to war? Prevent getting scratched in a fight with your wife?
Moreover, if you find a blacksmith shop to jingle a few hammers, you can make many in a day. To make armor, a large number of iron forged armor pieces are required, which must be woven together, enclosed and lined, and maintained daily to prevent rust and mildew. Dozens of pounds are made, worn on the body invulnerable, and equipped with an easy-to-operate crossbow (the bow requires professional training), it can greatly improve combat effectiveness without too much professional training.
For rebellion, of course! This is the logic of the rulers. Therefore, in ancient times, there was a saying that the length was limited and the short, the weight was not light, the crossbow was not limited, and the armor was not limited. There are really a lot of celebrities who died in history due to private purchase and private possession of armor, such as: Zhou Yafu, a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty who pacified the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, had a pit father's son, seeing that the old Zhou of Rong Ma's life was old, he pre-purchased a shield for his father as a funeral gift, and hid it secretly to do it, and also owed workers' wages to petition, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty learned that Lao Zhou was imprisoned for treason, and the fierce old Zhou died of hunger strike; The reason why Wu Zetian killed his son Li Xian was also because 300 pairs of armor were found in his house.
Now, in the entire Jingshi, the people of your Liu Yi Palace's mansion are secretly wearing armor, what is this not a rebellion?
With all the human and material evidence, it becomes an ironclad case where the facts are clear and the evidence is credible and sufficient.
Liu Cong abolished Liu Yi as the king of the north, made Liu Cang the crown prince, and replaced the successor as he wished. Once you become a former successor, your life will come to an end. Liu Cang soon caused Brigadier General Jin Liu Yi to be physically exterminated.
Liu Yi had a high prestige and was killed for no reason, causing two consequences:
First, soon, the clan and Qiang tribes gathered more than 100,000 people to rebel, and they were later suppressed by Jin Zhun.
The second is that countless ministers of the Xiongnu Liu Han regime died of advice, and as a result, many ministers died because of the advice.
In 318, Liu Cong died, reigning for only 8 years. In the past, he was able to open a 300-pound bow and had excellent strength, but now he is dying in the prime of life, which shows the great harm of wine. Liu Cang, who killed the emperor's uncle Liu Yi and cleared the obstacles to succession, ascended the throne as he wished, worshiped Jin Zhun as the commonplace, and recorded the affairs of the book.
Liu Cang succeeded to the throne, and Jin Yuehua became the queen mother. said that she is the queen mother, she is old and young, only twenty years old, and she is the age when the flowers bloom in the wild and the spring water is blue in the sky. Liu Cang perfectly inherited Liu Cong's lustful genes, and on the night he succeeded to the throne, he fell for the Empress Dowager Jin.
It should have been premeditated for a long time.
slept with the Empress Dowager Jin, and Liu Cang registered Jin Zhun as the queen of another daughter. And one of Jin Zhun's nieces is Liu Can's concubine. In this way, Liu Cong and his father Liu Yuan became "uncle's brother-in-law" because of Huyan's family, Liu Cang inherited his father's glorious tradition, and also because of Jin's posthumously recognized the identity of his father Liu Cong as an "uncle's brother-in-law".
Jin Zhun, who has the dual identity of the emperor's father-in-law and "grandfather", completely controls the government. From the younger brother Jin Ming, he was the commander-in-chief of the three armies (general of the cavalry); His nephew, Jin Kang, was the commander of the capital garrison (General Wei).
The commander-in-chief and the commander of the capital garrison are their own people, so they completely control the military power? How is it possible, because, the princes surnamed Liu of the Xiongnu regime, everyone has a large army in their hands. Jin Zhun was very jealous of this.
Fear is jealousy, but it is not difficult for Jin Zhun to be defeated, because he has a big killing weapon.
This big killer is naturally his bewitching queen mother and queen daughters. Jin entered the palace to secretly meet the queen mother and the queen's daughter: the clans surnamed Liu were plotting to abolish the emperor and set up Liu Ji, the king of Jinan (Liu Cang's younger brother, Da Sima) as the emperor. If successful, the Jin family will be exterminated. You two must take the opportunity to pajama, Your Majesty to start early.
Jin Zhun's daughter is really not raised in vain, and her ability to blow the wind on the pillow is first-class, and Liu Cang's killing ring is wide open. The Liu royal family was therefore on the list of martyrs: Liu Ji, King of Jinan, Liu Jing, King of Shangluo, Liu Li, King of Qi, Liu Kai, Duke of Changguo, and Liu Xiao, King of Wu.
How can it take a month to kill so many princes, siblings and brothers with heavy troops, right?
The truth is that Liu Cang only took one day.
Your hands and feet are cut off, who will shelter you from the wind and rain?
One day in September 318, when the red sun was scorching and the chairs were hot, Liu Cang was sweating and having fun with his concubines in the harem, and the old man Jin Zhun led dozens of heavily armed soldiers to break in, dragged him out of the couch, and escorted him to the Guangji Palace. Then, summon the ministers, point to this slick, cold sweating emperor's son-in-law, count all his crimes, and then execute him.
It's hugely hurtful, and it's extremely insulting. After that, Jin Zhun did not stop doing two things, and killed all the Liu royal families in the capital, regardless of men, women and children.
The Xiongnu Liu clan, who destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty, did not suffer the revenge of the Han people, but was exterminated by the same people, which is embarrassing.
If Jin Zhun slaughtered the Liu clan in order to be the emperor, and his behavior is understandable, then some of his next behaviors are a little confusing to the second monk.
The first abnormal behavior: digging the graves of Liu Yuan and Liu Cong. In particular, Liu Cong's body was dug up from the cemetery and beheaded and burned to the temple of the Liu family. Where did such hatred come from for the dead, or even benefactors?
The second abnormal behavior: After Jin Zhun seized the throne and called himself "King of Han", he actually wanted to send an extremely valuable gift to the south, and the object of the gift was the Eastern Jin Dynasty court that was driven to the south by their Huns.
This gift is the heirloom jade seal, the heirloom jade seal that the Huns grabbed after the destruction of the Western Jin Dynasty.
The jade seal of the country, the first official seal of ten thousand years, its meaning is known to the world, "whoever occupies it is the lord of the world", Sun Jian, the overlord of Jiangdong, gave his life for it. Now, Jin Zhun actually wants to give it to the Han people who were beaten to the south by them for nothing? Not only did outsiders not know what Jin Zhun was thinking, but even the envoys he sent couldn't figure it out.
The envoy who was sent to carry out the mission of "Xiongnu Thousands of Miles to Return to the Seal" was Hu Song of the Jin Dynasty, who surrendered to the Xiongnu Liu Han regime in the early years. Jin Zhun also asked Hu Song to bring a message to Emperor Jin Yuan: How dare we clowns be kings? During the chaos of the Great Jin Dynasty, the two emperors (Emperor Huai of Jin and Emperor Chu of Jin) suffered. I'm really sorry. Now return the body of the Second Emperor to you.
Hu Song was confused after receiving the order, and he didn't know whether Jin Zhun drank Sanlu or had another purpose, so he refused to send out the envoy and was killed by Jin Zhun.
I'd rather give my life than go on this trip to deliver the jade seal. With the stubbornness of death, question the abnormality of your behavior.
Emperor Sima Rui of the Jin Yuan Dynasty was even more confused, how could there be such a good thing in the world? It's like a Pizza Hut from the sky. But after all, if you don't take it, you will suffer from it, Sima Rui still can't help but send Han Yin, the head of the cultural bu (too often), to give it a try.
In this attempt, he really took the coffins of Emperor Huai and Emperor Chu, and Emperor Sima Rui's eyes were about to pop out - what is the situation? Why doesn't this Jin Zhun have a "bottom line" like Jin Dong?!
In fact, Lao Wang believes that all of Jin Zhun's abnormal behaviors have only one explanation that makes us extremely proud: no matter what ethnic group, as long as they live in the Central Plains for a long time, sooner or later they will become fans of the profound and brilliant Han culture. They will unconsciously regard the Han regime as Zhengshuo, and acquiesce in its uniqueness and legitimacy on behalf of China.
Although Jin Zhun succeeded in seizing power, he was limited to the level of the capital, and the wolves on the periphery were fed, and there were three main external enemies:
The first is Liu Yao, the king of Zhongshan who guards Chang'an. Liu Yao was the prime minister of the country, and he supervised all Chinese and foreign military affairs.
The second is Shile stationed in Hebei.
The third is a Han man in the capital, a Han man who surrendered.
Beigong Chun, a former Western Jin Dynasty general. Beigong Chun once served as the governor of Xiliang, under the jurisdiction of Zhang Liang, the history of the Liang Thorn in the Western Jin Dynasty, and was also famous for the First World War.
In 307, when Liu Yuan of the Xiongnu raised troops to kill Luoyang, the rebels of Wang Mi, the heroic commander of Qingzhou who surrendered to the Xiongnu, had already killed the east gate of Luoyang, ready to knock on the gate at any time. The court of the Western Jin Dynasty was in chaos, and the ministers scattered one after another.
At that time, Beigong Chun was sent by his boss Zhang Liang to bring a guard of nearly 1,000 people to Luoyang on a business trip, and just happened to meet the Hun soldiers, Beigong Chun took this Xiliang guard to the gate of Luoyang City and lined up to resist the enemy.
In the face of more than 100,000 rebels, the Xiliang Guards relied on the moat and launched a formation in turn.
The rebels who rushed to the city gates, with a salvage of arrows, tried to turn this small force that dared to block the mantis into patches of Mexican cacti.
However, until the arrows in the pot were almost exhausted, the rebels failed to injure a few Xiliang soldiers. Because, this army has its own weapons of mass destruction.
High shield and heavy armor.
Xiliang, another name for Liangzhou in ancient times, is located in western China, so it is called Xiliang, which means "located in the west, often cold and cool". The general area was the Huangshui basin of present-day Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai, and part of western Shaanxi.
Xiliang, where the Hexi Corridor and the throat of the ancient Silk Road are located, the danger of geographical location is self-evident. Xiliang culture has also always occupied an important place in Chinese history. Li Wei, a descendant of Li Guang, the general of the Han Dynasty, established the Xiliang Dynasty in 400 AD, and the Later Dynasty has changed several times, but Li has always been the surname of Liangzhou. Li Wei's great-grandson has a very famous grandson named Li Hu, because he has a more famous grandson named Li Yuan, and an even more famous great-grandson named Li Shimin.
Liangzhou is located on the border of Han and Qiang, and the people are fierce and not afraid of death. Qin Shi Huang once swept the six countries with the Western Liang army. During the Three Kingdoms, Dong Zhuo once relied on the Western Liang soldiers to hold the central government of the Eastern Han Dynasty hostage, and the other Western Liang soldiers were under the leadership of the fierce general Ma Chao, and Cao Cao fought six battles in Weishui.
Where does the strong combat power come from? Is it just because of its fierce folk customs? Definitely.
In 1989, an Australian scholar named David Harris was reading the Book of Han and accidentally discovered a small place used by the Han Dynasty to house prisoners, Lijing (pronounced "Liqian"), which was originally located near Jiaojiazhuang in Yongchang County, Gansu Province.
Harris conducted research on the village, and after returning to China, he published a paper on the study of Lijing, which was quickly reprinted by AFP and became an instant sensation around the world. What's in the news that's so exciting? What did Harris find?
Harris claimed that he had unravel the mystery of the disappearance of the First Roman Legion. Although the residents of Zhelaizhai claim to be Han and can speak standard local Chinese, they are very special in appearance, with light yellow hair, high noses, and blue eyes. Moreover, there are many differences between them and the Han people in terms of living customs.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences verified that the blood of the residents of Zhelaizhai has 46% European ancestry.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Lijing people were also known as Qin Hu. "The Chronicles of Emperor Wu of the Three Kingdoms" records that when Cao Cao confronted Ma Chao and Han Sui's Xiliang coalition forces in front of the battle, the "Qin Hu" in the Xiliang army competed to see the dignity of the traitorous male Cao Cao, showing great curiosity like looking at monkeys. It can be seen that the Western Liang army has absorbed a large number of descendants of the Romans. The Western Liang army also absorbed the Roman tactics, that is, the extensive use of heavy infantry weapons, mainly throwing spears, high shields and heavy armor.
Let's go back and talk about Beigong Chun.
After an exchange of fire between Beigong Chun's Xiliang army and the rebels of the "Flying Leopard" Wang Mi, they relied on their superiority in heavy infantry weapons and shield armor to repel the rebels.
In the following year, Liu Yuan proclaimed himself emperor, marched south to defeat Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, and arrived in Luoyang City again.
This time, the luck of the Huns was not very good, because, it happened that Beigong Chun was on a business trip in Luoyang at that time.
Beigong Chun did not defend passively, but led the Xiliang Guards to take the initiative to attack, attacked the Xiongnu camp at night, and killed Liu Yuan's subordinate general He Tuyan, and the Xiongnu commander-in-chief Sikong Huyan was also trampled to death by the war horse. After that, the troops of the other Qinwang of the Western Jin Dynasty arrived one after another, and Liu Yuan was forced to retreat.
The amazing combat effectiveness of the Western Liang Army has also left the prestige of "Liangzhou Malaysia, rampant in the world" in history. Later, due to the general trend, Beigong Chun surrendered to the Xiongnu Liu Han regime, but he has always been "in Huying's heart in Jin".
Jin Zhun coup d'état, the Huns civil strife, Beigong Chun thought that the time had come to restore the Jin Dynasty, and immediately called on the Han people to revolt, and built a military defense fortress in the East Palace. However, to Beigong Chun's great disappointment, there were very few Han people who responded to the uprising, and the uprising was easily suppressed by Jin Zhun.
A generation of famous generals Beigong Chun, who repaid the country with death, failed to wake up the cowardly Han people.
No matter how strong Beigong Chun's Xiliang army is, it is only a small force after all, and when Jin Zhun rebelled, he underestimated the strongest clan force.
Liu Yao, the king of Zhongshan of the Huns who guarded Chang'an. When Liu Yao heard that there was a change in the central government, he immediately personally led his army from Chang'an to Pingyang to quell the rebellion.
When the army marched to Chibi (Chishichuan in the northwest of present-day Hejin City, Shanxi), they encountered Taibao Hu Yanyan and Taifu Zhu Ji, who had escaped from Pingyang. The two of them were disgraced and panting and advised: The Liu clan has been slaughtered, and only the King of Zhongshan is left, so hurry up and call yourself the emperor.
As the only remaining member of the Liu clan, Liu Yao became the emperor without any obstacles or psychological burdens, changed the name of the country to Zhao, set the capital of Chang'an, and changed the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty.
Wait, change the country name to Zhao? As the successor to the throne of the Liu family, why didn't Liu Yao continue to use Han as his country name? The reasons are worth speculating:
First, when the Western Jin Dynasty was still there, the Xiongnu Liu Yuan could only unite the Han people and fight against the legitimacy of the Western Jin Dynasty (from Cao Wei in the Chan Dynasty) by covering up his ethnic identity and naming the country as Han. Now, the Western Jin Dynasty has perished, and the national name Han has completed its historical mission. Moreover, changing the name of the country to Zhao can be regarded as the inheritance of the Western Jin Dynasty, which helps to gain the support of the Jin people who still have feelings for the Jin Dynasty.
The second is that one of his powerful potential opponents is occupying the land of Gu Zhao, and the country is named Zhao in advance, in case this opponent is called King Zhao, it also happens to deny his legitimacy. Why? I am Emperor Zhao, you are King Zhao, and you will always be my subordinate. It can be seen that Liu Yao's degree of sinicization at this time is also very deep.
The potential opponent targeted by Liu Yao's preemptive registration of a well-known trademark is naturally Shi Le. Liu Yao proclaimed himself emperor, and named Shi Le, who was still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Xiongnu Liu Han regime and stationed in Hebei, as the general, and the two armies formed a horn and attacked Pingyang.
The army of tigers and wolves pressed the realm, and Jin Zhun knew very well in his heart that the forbidden army, internal affairs troops, and gendarmerie troops under his command were not at all the opponents of the field army that Liu Yao and Shi Le's troops had refined by licking blood and swords.
Let's send someone to Liu Yao's army to talk about peace and try it first. Liu Yao's reply: Go back and tell Jin Zhun that Liu Cang is lua
Lun's unscrupulous faint king, Jin Zhun killed him without merit. As long as Jin Zhun surrenders, it can be regarded as Jin Zhun has the merit of supporting me as the emperor.
Surrender and lose half, this seems to be a good condition, and Dasha can accept it. Jin Zhun did not accept it, he only promised to make peace, and did not agree to surrender.
Why?
The reason is very realistic, Liu Yao's mother and brother were both executed by Jin Zhun. If you surrender, the consequences can be imagined.
However, to paraphrase a famous saying of Jiang Zhongzheng: If you can't win on the battlefield, what can you talk about at the negotiating table? Jin Zhun was still entangled, but someone didn't give him a chance to be entangled.
Jin Ming, Jin Zhun's coup accomplice, his younger brother, and Jin Zhun's chariot general. At the time of the great tribulation, blood is no longer thicker than water, and people who are related by blood will still bleed you. In 319, Jin Ming cut off the head of his cousin Jin Zhun and prepared to surrender to Liu Yao.
The allure of the official seal of ten thousand years is fatal, and when a person heard that Jin Ming was going to present the jade seal of the country, he was immediately anxious, and he quickly drove Pingyang away, and he also wanted it. This person, of course, is Shile with different ambitions.
Hearing that Shi Le was attacking Pingyang, Jin Ming hurriedly asked Liu Yao for help. Liu Yao sent an army to welcome Jin Ming back, and more than 15,000 ordinary people in Pingyang also returned to Liu Yao. Surrender is surrender, the revenge of killing his mother and brother is not shared, and he can't help but revenge, Liu Yao killed all the people of the Jin family.
At this point, the Jin Zhun Rebellion ended, and it also left many unsolved mysteries in the history of the Wuhu and Sixteen Kingdoms. Regarding these mysteries, Lao Wang still insists that there is only one fundamental reason for Jin Zhun's many abnormal actions, that is: the majestic and vast Han culture has penetrated into the bone marrow of the Xiongnu people who have settled in the Central Plains for many years, and has taken root in their hearts.
Jin Zhun's rebellion also left two enlightenments for future generations:
First, under the feudal imperial society, no matter how powerful the political opponent is, even if the political enemy is a member of the clan, as long as you borrow the power of the supreme emperor, even if it is an edict, all political enemies can be eliminated. This is called four or two thousand catties, and the ugly queen Jia Nanfeng also uses this trick.
Second, the easiest thing in the world is to think beautifully, and the most difficult thing is to match. It is okay to use the identity of the emperor to control the government, however, if you want to usurp the throne and hold the country after usurpation, you have to rely on hard power. In this regard, Yang Jun and Jin Zhun are both losers, and two hundred years later, another emperor Lao Zhang, who did a good job, his name is Yang Jian, which will be described later.
