Chapter 329: Emperor Yi (Seeking Points and Receiving Rewards)
Of course not.
Because Xiang Yu led dozens of remnants to face off against the thousands of Han (the predecessor of the Han Dynasty) army soldiers who followed, before Xiang Yu once said to the dozens of remnants: "I have been eight years since I started the army, and after more than 70 wars, everyone who opposed me has been defeated by me, and the people I defeated have all expressed surrender and have never failed, so I can dominate the world, and now I am besieged here by the enemy, it is really not that I can't fight, but God wants to destroy me!" Today is a decisive battle, I want to fight a battle with all of you, at least three victories, for everyone to defeat the encirclement, behead the generals, cut down the flag, let everyone know that it is God who wants to destroy me, it is not that I can't fight at all. ”
As a result, after that battle, the thousands of soldiers of the Han State (the predecessor of the Han Dynasty) army who followed were killed by dozens of remnants led by Xiang Yu, not counting more than 100 people, and hundreds of people were killed under the trampling of their own military horses, which can be said to be a heavy loss.
The dozens of remnants led by Xiang Yu only killed two people. Therefore, the dozens of remnants led by Xiang Yu had to admit that "it is the same as what the king said, that is, Xiang Yu."
It can be seen that Xiang Yu is really not a braggart king.
And we can come up with a simple rational reasoning.
If Xiang Yu's song "Farewell My Concubine" is "Pull out the mountain and cover the world", the "pull out the mountain" in this sentence is the real mountain.
At the beginning, Xiang Yu didn't have to fight with the main force of the Qin Dynasty in the famous "Battle of Julu" in history. I have to come to a "broken boat".
How tired are you!?
How troublesome!?
How dangerous is that?!
As long as Xiang Yu "pulls out the mountain". As long as Xiang Yu pulled out a few mountains, and then threw them to the Qin Dynasty army, keeping the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty army in their farts and urine, they only hated their parents for having two legs. I'm afraid that no matter how strict the discipline of the Qin Dynasty's army is, it can't be banned.
Because the image of Xiang Yu under that shape is definitely "the god descends to earth".
At that time, people were very superstitious.
In the face of "the gods descend to earth", those ordinary people think that there is no better hospitality except for "bowing and worshiping".
In that case, history will be rewritten.
Because as long as Xiang Yu shows that he is the qualification of "the god descends to earth", then the Qin Dynasty has no other choice but to surrender to Xiang Yu throughout the country. Fight with the sky, but you will be damned. At that time, because of superstition, I was very, very afraid of the damnation.
If the whole country of the Qin Dynasty surrendered to Xiang Yu. Then Liu Bang, who was later known as Han Gaozu, had no chance to enter Xianyang, the capital of the Qin Dynasty at that time.
As long as Liu Bang, who was later known as Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, did not have the opportunity to enter the capital of the Qin Dynasty at that time...... Xianyang. There was no need for Xiang Yu to have a dispute with Liu Bang, who was later known as Han Gaozu, because of who was the "King of Guanzhong".
At this time, Emperor Yi appeared.
Emperor Chu Yi: That is, Xiong Xin, the grandson of Xiong Huai, the king of Chu Huai during the Warring States Period, after the death of Chu, he hid the people and shepherded sheep. Xiang Liang got into trouble. Adopt Fan Zeng's suggestion. He claimed to be Wu Xinjun and set up Xiong Xin as the king of Chu Huai to be popular with the people. Xiang Liang was defeated and died in Dingtao. King Huai, with Song Yi as the general and Xiang Yu as the second general, led his troops to rescue Zhao. He also ordered Liu Bangxi to enter the customs slightly. Make an appointment with the generals, and the one who enters the customs first is the king. Xiang Yu killed Song Yi and defeated Zhang Han in Julu. King Huai then took Xiang Yu as his general. Later, Liu Bang entered the customs first, and Xiang Yu made people repay the king. King Huai replied to the original agreement, Xiang Yu resented King Huai, so he pretended to respect King Huai as the righteous emperor, migrated to Chenxian County, Changsha, and secretly ordered Yingbu and others to kill King Huai in the Yangtze River.
In the autumn and July of the first year of Qin II (209 BC), Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled against Qin in Daze Township, Qi County (now Su County, Anhui), and after seizing Chen County, they established the country name "Zhang Chu", and Chen Sheng proclaimed himself the king of Chu. The heroes of the world responded, and in September, Liu Bangpei County, a Chu man (now Pei County, Jiangsu), raised troops and established himself as the Duke of Pei. In the same month, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncles and nephews raised troops in Huiji (now Shaoxing), and Xiang Liang called himself Wu Xinjun. In the second year of Qin II (208 BC), Chen Sheng was defeated by the Qin general Zhang Han, and his whereabouts are unknown. In the summer and June of the same year, Xiang Liang learned that Chen Sheng had indeed been killed, so he summoned Liu Bang and other generals to Xue County (now Teng County, Shandong) to discuss the anti-Qin plan. Strategist Fan Zeng said: "Chen Sheng's defeat is solid (of course). Fu Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, and Chu was the most innocent. Since King Huai (Xiong Huai) entered Qin, the people of Chu have pitied him so far, so (so) Chu Nangong said, "Although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu". Today, Chen Sheng's first thing, not to establish the queen of Chu (the descendants of the king of Chu) and to stand on his own, his momentum is not long (not long). Today's Jun (Xiang's uncle and nephew) from Jiangdong, Chu Bee (swarming) of the generals are all vying for the monarch, to the monarch of the Chu general, in order not to regain the Chu after also "Historical Records". Xiang Liang adopted Fan Zeng's suggestion and visited Xiong Xin, the grandson of King Huai, a descendant of King Chu, to establish himself as King Huai of Chu, and set his capital at Xutai (now Xuyi, Jiangsu). Xiong Xin has the same nickname as his grandfather, in order to inherit his prestige and "be expected by the people".
In the autumn and September of the second year of Qin II (208 BC), the Qin general Zhang Han defeated the Chu army at Dingtao (now Dingtao County, Shandong), and Xiang Liang's soldiers were defeated and killed. At this time, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were still attacking Chenliu (now southeast of Kaifeng, Henan), and Chen Sheng's old army Lu Chen was stationed in Chen County (now Huaiyang, Henan), the old capital of "Zhang Chu", all of which were located in the southwest of Dingtao. Liu Bang, Xiang Yu in order to stabilize the army's heart, defend King Huai, resist the Qin army, hurriedly moved the division to the east, and asked King Huai to move the capital north to Pengcheng (now Xuzhou, Jiangsu), Lu Chen also felt that the situation was grim, abandoned Chen County, defected to King Huai, garrisoned Pengcheng East, and Xiang Yu stationed in the west of Pengcheng, stationed in Dangjun (now Dangshan, Anhui) Liu Bang formed horns with each other, and supported each other. And the Qin general Zhang Han "has broken Xiang Liang, thinking that Chu is not enough to worry about the soldiers, so he crossed the north to attack Zhao". The frontal military pressure of Chu temporarily subsided, and King Huai began to rectify the political situation of Chu, personally took care of the military and political affairs of Chu, and actively planned the strategic arrangement of destroying Qin and destroying Qin. In leap September, "King Huai and Lu Chen, Xiang Yu's army will be his own", that is, the two armies of Xiang Yu and Lu Chen were merged into one place under his own direct command, and King Huai began to take charge of the anti-Qin rebel armies in the south. King Huai made an exception to promote Song Yi as the champion of Qingzi, established that his cronies held the power of the army, and led Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng, Yingbu and other generals to the north to rescue Zhao. At the same time, he issued a famous political declaration, agreeing with the generals that "the king of the first to break through Qin and enter Xianyang". and agreed that Liu Bang would collect Xiang Liang and Chen Sheng's remaining troops to go west to attack Qin. But Xiang Yu was unwilling to go north to rescue Zhao, and preferred to go west with Liu Bang to enter the customs. King Huai thought that "Xiang Yu is a fierce person, and Dupei Gong is a lenient elder and can be sent", so he did not agree to Xiang Yu's request, but only sent Pei Gong west to attack Qin.
At the beginning of the first year of the Han Dynasty (206 BC) (winter October), Liu Bang, the Duke of Pei, "entered Xianyang and Ping Qin". Two months later (winter December), Xiang Yu supported 400,000 troops after Julu broke the main force of the Qin army, followed Liu Bang into the customs, "punished the prince of Qin and slaughtered Xianyang".
Qin died, Xiang Yu entered the customs later than Liu Bang, so the envoy also reported to King Huai to ask to change the previous agreement of "the first to enter the customs of the king", but King Huai did not allow it. Xiang Yu originally resented King Huai's refusal to send him to the west with Pei Gongju, and was even more annoyed at this time, complaining that "the one who conceives the king, my family (Xiang family) has set up an ear, and it is not meritorious, how can he get the exclusive lord covenant (how can one person preside over the agreement) ("Hanshu Gao Di Ji")", and said: "When the world was in trouble at the beginning, the princes (descendants) were pretended to be established to defeat Qin. However, the body was stubbornly sharpened, exposed to the wild for three years, and those who destroyed Qin and the world will all be the power of the monarch and the nationality (Xiang Yu). Although Emperor Yi has no merit, he should divide his land and the king (divide the land and call the king) ("Historical Records?Xiang Yu Benji")". In the first month of spring, Xiang Yu pretended to respect the king as the righteous emperor, "but he didn't need his life". In spring and February, Xiang Yu imitated the old system and divided the princes into princes. And set up the overlord of Western Chu, and took Pengcheng, the capital of Emperor Yi, as an existing one, under the pretext of "the emperor of the ancients, the place is thousands of miles, and he must live in the upstream", forcing Emperor Yi to move the capital to Chenxian County, Changsha County. Chenxian County is located at the northern foot of Wuling, which was the land of the Southern Barbarian Baiyue in ancient times, and is located in the upper valley of Leishui, the main stream of the Xiangjiang River. In the early Warring States period, it was still in a clan society where "each based on its own territory", and the Chu people called it "菻", which means a place full of artemisia. In the middle of the Warring States Period, the king of Chu mourned Wu Qi as the prime minister "Nanping Baiyue", and "La" was the conquest of Chu and the southern border of Chu. During the period of Xionghuai of King Huai of Chu, the city of a certain scale was formed, so it was renamed "Chen", (according to the inscription of Chu's "Ejun Qizhou Festival", the original seal left from "Yi", and the right from "Xia" The Chu seal character of the original text is the fake word of "Chen", and the original meaning is extended to "remote Yi"). How can Chencheng compare to the prosperity of Pengcheng. Emperor Yi naturally refused to move the capital and still lived in Pengcheng.
In the summer and April of the first year of Emperor Yi (206 BC), Xiang Yu wanted to return the capital Pengcheng. How could he let Emperor Yi live in the same city with him, so he sent soldiers to force Emperor Yi to migrate, and Emperor Yi had no choice but to go to the capital, but the ministers left and right, attached to their hometown, complained, and refused to migrate quickly. Xiang Yu was furious and secretly ordered the three kings of the land where Emperor Yi passed through (Yingbu, King of Jiujiang, Wu Rui, King of Hengshan, and Gongao, King of Linjiang) to kill Emperor Yi on the way. In the first year of Emperor Yi, that is, in the winter and October of the first year of King Han (206 BC), Yingbu sent to chase and kill Emperor Yi to Chenxian County, and killed Emperor Yi in Chencheng Poor Spring. The people of Chenren took pity on him and buried Emperor Yi in the back mountain in the southwest of the city.
In March of the second year of the Han Dynasty (205 years ago), the Han King Liu Bangtong's army crossed the Yellow River to Luoyang, passing through Xincheng (now Shangqiu, Henan), and met the three old Dong Gong to learn of the death of Emperor Yi, the Han King was very sad, so that the three armies mourned, and they were vegetarian for three days. A message was issued to the whole country: "The world has established a righteous emperor, and the north is in charge." This time, Xiang Yu released the righteous emperor to kill the righteous emperor in the south of the Yangtze River, and there was no way to rebel! The widow was mourned in person, and the princes were all vegetarian. Xi sent the internal soldiers of the Guan, and were willing to kill the righteous emperor from the princes and kings of Chu ("Historical Records: Emperor Gao's Benji")". The princes of the world responded, and the king of Han had to have a large army of 560,000 people from all walks of life, kill Pengcheng, crusade against Xiang Yu, and open the prelude to the three-year dispute between Chu and Han. In 202 BC, Liu Bang destroyed Xiang Yu, unified the world, and established the Han Dynasty. Later generations built an ancestral temple to worship Emperor Yi, and the three marquis passed Yongxing, Guidong, and established the three marquis shrine to worship.
Emperor Yi of Chu...... Qing Dynasty] Wu Fei, originally attached to the "Chu Han Emperor Moon Table"
Emperor Chuyi, with the princes respected as the co-master, and was ordered by the king to be the emperor, so it is righteous. The heart of its name, the lineage is passed on, so Chu Huai Wang Sun also. Since the Huai Wang Shu Zongchen Qu Ping, the King of Qin Zhao and Chu married, he and the Huai Wang will meet, the Huai King wants to do, Qu Ping admonished: The country of Qin, the tiger and the wolf, is not credible, it is better to do nothing. King Huai instigated and persuaded Zilan with his child, but it was Zilan who would have been humbled to Ping. Pawn. Entering the Wuguan, Qin ambushed the soldiers and had no way out, leaving the king, please cut the land. King Huai didn't listen, and Zhao died, Zhao Bunei, and restored Qin. He died and was buried. After the death, the five kings were defeated and captured by Qin Shi Huang, and Chu and the five kingdoms were all destroyed. Qin has merged the world, and the descendants of the Six Kingdoms have not been able to sneak into the people. The emperor also used sheep herding to hide in and out of the lotus hat, and the people still knew that they were born as the grandson of the king. Then Qin wiped out the six countries, Chu was the most innocent, Huai Wang and died in Qin, Chu people still pity him for a long time, and see Sun Xinyu see Huai Wang. Xiang Yan is the late Chu general. Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu do not forget Chu. Soldiers rise to Wu. In July and August of the first year of Qin II, Chen Shi started to start Qi until Chen was the king, and his name was Zhang Chu. Yan, Zhao, Qi, and Wei all set themselves up as kings and should be involved. Pei Gong also started because of the Xiang family. When Xiang Liang heard that Chen was dead, he summoned the general to be accountant to Xue, and Pei Gong also went to Pei. Xiang Liang Naixin lived in the nest Fan Zeng said that after the establishment of Chu, in order to cooperate with the masses, from the people's popularity, to seek the righteous emperor Yu Mu and set up, that is, the king of Chu Huai. Although the same name is Chu, there are not the same, but the king of Huai is the real Chu, all Xuyi, and Chen Ying is the pillar of Chu. Xiang Liang called himself Wu Xinjun. After living for a few months, Xiang Yu pulled out Dong'a and broke the Qin army. Make Pei Gong and Xiang Yu don't attack Chengyang and slaughter it. The west broke the Qin army Puyang to the east, and the Qin army reinvigorated and defended Puyang. Pei Gong and Xiang Yu attacked Dingtao, Xiluodi, broke the Qin army, beheaded Li You, and also attacked Waihuang. Xiang Liangyi is light and arrogant. Song Yi knew that Wu Xinjun would be defeated, and he did not listen. Qin Yizhang Hanbing, the night title hit Xiang Liang, broke it in Dingtao, and Xiang Liang died. Lu Chen's army is east of Pengcheng, Xiang Yu's army is west of Pengcheng, and Pei Gongfang's army is dang. When King Huai saw that Xiang Liang's army was broken, he was afraid, and moved to Pengcheng, the capital of Xuyi, and Lu Chen and Xiang Yu's army took it by himself. With Pei Gong as the magistrate of Dangjun, he was named the Marquis of Wu'an, and he was a soldier of Dangjun. Feng Xiangyu was the Marquis of Chang'an, called Lu Gong, Lu Chen was Situ, and his father Lu Qing was Ling Yin. Qin hit Zhao, and Zhao Shu came to ask for help. King Huai is based on the words of Qi Gaoling Junxian, saying that Song Yi expected Liang to be defeated before Xiang Liang fought, and believed that he knew the soldiers. Song Yi and Ji were specially called, and Da Yue thought that he was the general, Xiang Yu was the second general, Fan Zeng was the last general, and Zhao was rescued in the north. All the generals belong to Song Yi, the champion of Qingzi. ordered the military order, secretly slandered Xiang Yu, and wanted Xiang Yu to be ordered as he belonged. Xiang Yu was angry, that is, Song Yi was cut in the account. The generals dare not be branched. It is a total project of Yu as a fake general, Yu Yi'er. Yu envoy Huan Chu reported to King Huai. King Huai was reported as Xiang Yu and made him a general. Save Zhao Po Qin Army. At the beginning, King Huai made an agreement with the generals, and the first to enter the king of the customs. It is planned to order Pei Gong Xi to enter the customs slightly. Xiang Yu complained that Qin broke Xiang Liang's army, and was willing to go west with Pei Gong. Huai Wang's veterans are all called Xiang Yu's cunning thieves, everything is ruined, it is not as good as Pei Gongsu's lenient elders, and they can be sent. Huai Wang Naizu did not allow Xiang Yu to send Pei Gong alone. Pei Gong broke Xianyang first, and Qiu did nothing. Prince Qin descended. Sealed. and the people of Xianyang issued three chapters, and they lived up to the old generals' claim to be the king. Xiang Yuwen re-led troops to slaughter Xianyang, killed the prince and baby, burned the Qin palace room, and made people fatally pregnant with the king. King Huai said: As promised. It is to honor the king as the righteous emperor. Xiang Yu wants to be the king, called the overlord of Western Chu, Du Pengcheng. And the first kings and generals, and the first covenant when the righteous emperor was the king, the conspiracy said: Bashu is dangerous, and the people of Qin are all living in Shu. Ranba and Shu are also in the middle of the country. Therefore, Pei Gong was established as the king of Han, Wang Ba, Shu, Hanzhong, and Nanzheng. And in the three-point pass, Wang Qin surrendered to the king of Saihan. Nai Li Qin Zhanghan is the king of Yong, west of Wang Xianyang, the capital is wasted hills; Sima Xin is the king of Sai, east of Wang Xianyang to the river, the capital is Liyang; Dong Peng is the king of Zhai, Wang Shangjun, all Gaonu. Wang Bao of Wei was the king of Western Wei, Wang Hedong and Pingyang, Chu general Qiu Shenyang was the king of Henan and Luoyang, Wang Cheng of Han was the capital of Duyang Zhai, and Zhao general Sima Wei was the king of Yin, Wang Hanoi and Du Chaoge. Zhao Xiang Zhang Er was the king of Changshan, Wang Zhao Di, and the capital of Xiangguo, and the king of Yangjun was the king of Jiujiang, and the capital was six. Emperor Yi Zhuguo was the king of Linjiang and had Jiangling. Fanjun Wu Rui is the king of Hengshan, and he is all right. Yan will Zang Tu as the king of Yan, all thistle. King of Yan, Han Guangxi, King of Liaodong. Wangtian City of Qi is the king of Jiaodong, all of which are ink. Qi Jiangtian was the king of Linzi. Tian An is the king of Jibei, and the capital is Boyang. Xiang Yu ordered the princes to go to their own country. The emperor said: The emperor of the ancients, thousands of miles away, will live upstream. It is the righteous emperor of Changsha Chenxian County, which is interesting, and the ministers are slightly rebellious. Xiang Yuyin ordered the King of Jiujiang and others to attack the Yi Emperor, and Huang Bunai made the envoy to hunt him down and kill Yu Chen. The second year of the king, the twentieth month of the year. The first year of the emperor, the tenth of the month. It was Xiang Yu who ended up with great injustice, and he really died. The three old Dong of Xincheng said to the king of Han, and when the king of Han heard it, he cried loudly, mourned for the righteous emperor, and did the courtesy of the monarch and ministers on the third day. Make the envoy sue Xiang Yu for the crime of rebellion to the princes, and be willing to kill the righteous emperor from Chu. And Western Chu also died because of it. Wu Fei said: The world has established a righteous emperor, and the north is also justified in its name. The emperor does not use it for himself, he said that Song Yi is a soldier who knows the soldiers, and the king of Qi Gaoling says it; and sends Pei Gong into the customs, and he does not send Xiang Yu, and the old generals say it; For the reason why he was killed, it was not because of this. Although, Song Yi is not a general, Pei Gong is not alone, trace Xiang Yu's trip to measure his heart, how can he really end the righteousness, and respect the righteous emperor in his name without killing him? So that Xiang Yu did not kill the righteous emperor and the righteous emperor was there, I don't know what happened to the righteous emperor when the king of Han was successful? Unfortunately and killed, the king of Han still said after the funeral, the righteous emperor has no queen, and the king of Qi Han Xin learned the customs of Chu and migrated to the king of Chu. It is the coincidence of Gaozu who returned to the righteous emperor with his name, that is, he also coincidentally returned to himself with his own name. The heart is Xi asked, then it is Chen involved in the dangzhi mound, and the funeral of Xiang Yu with Lu Gongli, and the burial of Tian Heng with the king's ceremony, there is also.
Emperor Yi left an allusion to his descendants, that is, the covenant of the king.
The Covenant of King Huai was a plan for the disposition of the Qin state after the war under the background of the general recognition of the succession to the throne of the six kingdoms, and the anti-Qin army with Chu as the leader of the alliance. According to the covenant of King Huai, Liu Bang, who was the first to enter the customs, was supposed to rule the entire land of Qin as the king of Qin, and restore the situation of the seven kingdoms standing side by side before the unification of Qin. Although due to Xiang Yu's misinterpretation of King Huai's covenant (whether it was intentional or not, the benevolent and the wise will see the wise), Liu Bang only became the king of Han. However, in Xiang Yu's feudal system, the legal basis for the establishment of the Han regime is still the covenant of King Huai, which is also a continuation of the Qin regime in Guanzhong (is this a play on words, whether Qin and Hanzhong Bashu, which originally belonged to Qin, are the same concept, and it is also a matter of opinion between the benevolent and the wise). Therefore, after Liu Bang entered Hanzhong, he began to gradually abolish the Chu system and switch to the Qin system, and the two groups formed a bond and laid the groundwork for the Chu and Han hegemony. For Xiang Yu, the recognition of the covenant of King Huai is to recognize the existing world order of the restoration of the Seven Kingdoms and the revival of the royal government. Under this world order, Xiong Xin, King of Chuhuai, Zhao Xie, King of Qi, Tian Shi, King of Wei, Wei Bao, King Han Cheng, King of Han, Han Guang, King of Yan, plus the new King of Qin, Liu Bang, almost collected the rights and interests of the world. If you obey this order, you and the generals of all countries will return to your respective royal courts to become generals, begging for rewards and being slaughtered by others, which is simply impossible to tolerate. Xiang Yu clearly knows that now his high merit not only shocks the master, but has already shaken the world, and with such unrewarded achievements, there is no one in the world who can be rewarded. As for King Huai, he never trusted himself, and he never put King Huai in his eyes, and he was vigilant against each other. When King Huai's answer was conveyed to Xiang Yu's army, Xiang Yu decided to abandon King Huai's covenant, deny the established order of the world, and let himself dominate it, and re-divide the world and establish a new ruling order in accordance with the principle of rewarding meritorious deeds. Xiang Yu summoned the generals of all countries and said: "King Huai was established by my Xiang clan, and if he has no meritorious merits, how can he arbitrarily preside over the world convention! At the beginning of the chaos in the world, he temporarily established the descendants of the six countries as kings to punish the tyrannical Qin. However, he was personally stubbornly sharpened in the field, slept in the open for three years, and finally destroyed Qin and the world, relying on the strength of the generals and my family. "The generals followed Xiang Yu to fight, and they all expressed their willingness to obey Xiang Yu's arrangement. (To be continued......)
