The reign name Chiwu was very unfriendly to Jiangdong.
Last year when the Yuan Dynasty was just changed, the enterprising Zhu Huan died of illness.
If he had not died of illness, Jiangdong would not have been defeated so miserably in the battle of Shouchun this year.
Based on his ability to make soldiers willing to die, Jiangdong can still retain some strength even if he is defeated. If he returns five to six thousand more soldiers, or even ten thousand.
In the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, Pan Jun's death and the defeat of Huainan caused the powerful families in Jingnan to rebel.
Originally it was just a rebellion by the barbarian tribes in Cangwu County, Jiaozhou.
In the tenth month of winter, Jiangdong sent General Jiang Mi to supervise his troops to go south for a crusade. However, when he reached Linhe County, his commander, Liao Shi, who was from Wuling, mutinied with his subordinates and killed Jiang Mi. He seized the military power and forced his troops to kill him.
Killed Yan Gang, the prefect of Linhe, and other officials.
In the winter of December, Linhe County was completely occupied, and tens of thousands of people gathered in a short period of time.
Liao Shi called himself General Pingnan and rebelled against Wu to establish himself.
He sent his brother Liao Qian to attack Lingling and Guiyang counties, and sent other generals south to plunder the counties in Jiaozhou, which shocked both Jingnan and Jiaozhou.
Linhe County was established by Sun Quan after the Shixie family was destroyed by Jiangdong. It was divided into the northern part of Cangwu County. Linhe County (today's Hezhou City, Guangxi) was the county government.
, docking with Xiaoshui River in the upper reaches of Xiangshui River.
Sun Quan transferred this area from Jiaozhou to Jingzhou in order to better control Jiaozhou. On the contrary, if Linhe County rebels, Jingnan and Jiaozhou counties will also be affected.
Moreover, General Liao Shi could kill Shangguan so easily and seize power, and built up such power in such a short period of time. No one would believe him if he said that there was no help from the powerful Jingnan family secretly.
Therefore, Zhennan General Lu Dai, who was staying in Wuchang at that time, took the initiative to request orders to go and fight against the rebellion.
Although he was approaching the age of Zang Dynasty, Zhuge Jin's troops who were guarding the public security department could not move without authorization. Otherwise, as soon as the troops were sent to Linhe County, there might be a new rebellion in Wuling and Lingling County behind them.
Furthermore, Lu Dai was known to use troops swiftly and with force, and was familiar with the terrain and geography of Jiaozhou; while Zhuge Jin had a gentle temperament and was too slow in using troops. From this alone, Sun Quan knew who to use.
Therefore, Sun Quan again worshiped Lu Dai as the shepherd of Jiaozhou, and selected general Tang Zi and other troops from Jiangdong to send them to quell the rebellion.
I came to Wuchang to take charge, leaving Lu Xun and others to assist Sun Deng, the left prince, to establish the town.
There is no way around it.
The Battle of Shouchun had already wiped out the vigor of all the generals in Wu, and had eliminated the possibility of rebellion. Instead of staying in Jianye and getting annoyed with each other, he might as well transfer to Wuchang to join Lu Dai, Tang Zi and others.
The Ministry serves as backup.
Even after moving into Wuchang Palace, he often sat alone until dawn.
Sometimes, I would think of the crowds of ministers gathered in the palace before the New City of Hefei was captured, and the strength that made Ni Wei dare not relax his defense. I would also think of the fact that I had listened to Zheng Pu's plan to attack Hefei in secret.
right or wrong.
Naturally, what he thinks about most is where Jiangdong will go from here.
After all, things are not what they used to be.
In today's Three Kingdoms, Wu's national power has become the last...
When the news of another rebellion in Jiangdong reached Luoyang of Wei State, Cao Rui was overjoyed.
I feel that it is not so hard to accept the bad news that the two states of Youji and Hebei reported that heavy snow collapsed the houses of common people in Li and that the government was busy providing relief.
Likewise, at the end of the year, the heroes of the Shouchun War were given lavish titles, titles, wealth, and food to the soldiers.
For example, Taiwei Man Chong asked to return to Luoyang to take up a post. Not only did he agree, but he also ordered the craftsmen to give Man Chong a high rank in Luoyang within a time limit to show his favor.
This is not the first time that Man Chong has asked to return to Luoyang because of his old age.
However, Cao Rui had always refused to do so out of consideration for defense against Jiangdong.
Now that Jiangdong is plagued by external and internal troubles, there is no need to worry about the coming invaders in the next few years, so it is safe to say that he is full of favors.
In the list of Gai Yinman Chong's request to return this time, he added a sentence at the end: "The old minister is getting old, and there is not much time left. Even if he stays in Huainan, he will not have the chance to regain control of the thief Wu Zhi!"
Yes, given Man Chong's age and physical condition, I'm afraid he will die before the next invasion of Jiangdong.
In this way, Cao Rui felt that allowing Man Chong to return to Luoyang as he wished would at least give him someone to consult on major military and state decisions.
It was based on the merits of Man Chong Shi Yi, and the previous total of 9,900 households was divided into Shi Yi, so that Man Chong's princes were all princes, and even his disciples were covered. The rest, such as Wang Ling, Sun Li and others, all had their own Promotion rewards.
The most eye-catching one is Xia Houxuan.
As the first person to propose the strategy of "false Jingxiang to lure the bandit Wu to attack Huainan with all his strength", his talent and learning were recognized by Cao Rui, and he was transferred to the city gate captain in charge of guarding the city gates of the capital, and was added as a regular attendant on cavalry.
It can be regarded as officially regarded as a confidant by Cao Rui.
However, his regular attendants on horseback were promoted to official positions after all, and could not always accompany him to admonish him for his mistakes.
In terms of power, he could not compare with the hatred in his heart, Master Sima.
In particular, Master Sima's recent advice has won Cao Rui's heart, and his talent has been highly valued by Cao Rui.
After the Battle of Shouchun, he looked for an opportunity when Cao Rui went out to observe the troops. Since Wu Guofu's defeat was no longer in danger, he advised Cao Rui to try to send some signals to Sun Quan to restore the friendship between the two countries, in order to better resist the Han Dynasty. The army entered Guanzhong.
Cao Rui accepted it.
He ordered Wang Chang, the general who conquered the south in Jingzhou, to privately ask the prefect of Jiangxia to send merchants from the state of Wu to purchase salt.
There is no shortage of salt in Wei State.
Whether it is the salt ponds in Hedong or the scale of boiling the sea into salt in Qingzhou since the Spring and Autumn Period, Wei's supply of salt can be guaranteed.
In other words, Cao Rui was asking Sun Quan a veiled question.
"Do you want the two countries to continue to fight against each other in the future? Or should the two countries stop fighting and make peace with each other and trade for mutual benefit?"
At that time, Sun Quan just arrived in Wuchang.
After hearing the news, I struggled with my thoughts several times, and finally gave instructions to the garrison troops stationed in various places to privately liberalize trade.
The big man didn't know this.
At this time, Emperor Liu Chan and all the princes in the court were moved to tears by the letter sent by Ma Zhong.
However, it is said that after Liao Shi took Linhe County and rebelled, he sent many of his confidants to the counties in Jiaozhou to invite the leftists or wealthy families who did not surrender or were forced to surrender to Jiangdong to jointly carry out major events.
Wu Dang, a native of Jieyang, Nanhai County, was also invited.
Wu Dang, whose courtesy name was Shushan, was born as a filial and honest man. He served as the magistrate of Ancheng County in Changsha County and was subordinate to the governor of Guanhou who guarded Jingzhou at that time.
In the twentieth year of Jian'an (215 years), war broke out between Han and Wu over the ownership of Jingnan.
Wu Dang, together with officials from Ancheng, Youxian, Yongxin, and Chaling counties, entered Yinshan City to gather troops to resist. However, the strength of the troops was greatly disparity, and they were forced to surrender under the siege led by Lu Dai. However, Lu Dai just transferred his troops to Changsha, and Wu Dang once again united with Yuan Long, the general of Zhonglang who was stationed in Liling, and returned to the Han Dynasty again, occupying You County to cope with the Marquis of Guan who was about to move south.
However, at that time, Zhang Lu of Hanzhong surrendered to Wei Wu and Cao Cao.
Faced with the threat of the Wei army in the Bashu land, the late emperor Liu Bei had no choice but to negotiate peace with Sun Quan by demarcating the Xiang River.
It also caused Yuan Long and Wu Dang to fall into an isolated and helpless place. Yuan Long, who occupied Liling, was captured and killed by Lu Dai's soldiers, while Wu Dang was besieged by Lu Su's soldiers.
Lu Su ordered Wu Dang's old officials to go to the city with letters to recruit him to surrender.
Dang replied: "Dang was appointed by the emperor to be the leader. He knew that there were Han people, but he didn't know that there was Wu!"
If you don't surrender, you will defend to the death.
Soon after, the city was breached, and Wu Dang broke out under the protection of his retinue.
Unable to go north, he fled back to Jieyang County, Nanhai County, Jiaozhou, where he stayed in his hometown and lived in seclusion.
Later, Sun Quan gained Jiaozhou, and Bu Zhi, the governor of Jiaozhou, believed that Wu Dang was a loyal man and did not attack him with old crimes. Wu Dang also did not raise an army to rebel or serve in Jiangdong.
On the surface, it is a story of mutual loyalty and loyalty.
But in fact, it is a tacit understanding between the two parties.
Because there are many barbarian tribes in Jiaozhou, the Han people and common people live in clans. The relationship between counties, villages and clans is intricate, and almost everyone is prosperous. Wu Dang, who was born in Xiaolian, was originally from a large Jieyang family, with great prestige and popularity.
Many clans and barbarian tribes with other surnames respect him. If Jiangdong sends troops to seize it, it will inevitably trigger a new rebellion.
Bu Zhi knew that Jiangdong's rule in Jiaozhou was not stable, so he followed the current and tried to satisfy the benevolence of the county officials and people by not pursuing Wu Dang's old crimes.
Wu Dang also had a tacit understanding of this.
When many rebellions broke out in Jiaozhou or Jingnan, no troops were raised to respond or participate.
Now, Liao Shi killed the prefect of Linhe for rebelling, sent people to inform Jiangdong of the defeat in Shouchun, and invited them to participate in the great event. Wu Dang's reaction was no exception.
He claimed that he was willing to grow old and die in the countryside in this life, and refused because he did not want to see the clan and the people in the countryside suffer the consequences of swords and war.
He also sent Liao Shi's letters to the Nanhai Prefecture.
This is to make it clear that when Jiangdong is quelling the rebellion, the common people in Jieyang in the countryside will not be accidentally harmed.
But no one knew that he also sent a few of his confidants to travel across mountains and rivers into Nanzhong with handwritten letters, looking for Ma Zhong, the commander-in-chief of the Han Dynasty, to pass them on to the Chengdu temple.
The letter said:
"Dang originally grew up in Changsha. In the past, he suffered hardships. It would be a crime not to die to celebrate the festival. However, Dang was a Han official for one day and would not change even if he died. He was living in the enemy's territory and never thought of himself as a Wu person. Now I hear from afar that the Wu army was defeated.
In Shouchun, rebellions broke out in Jingnan, and Dang also had the ambition to serve his country. There are more than 200 Dang clan members, and a total of more than 3,000 people from the township and Muhan'en barbarian tribes, all of whom can fight with swords and spears. If Your Majesty wants to attack Wu,
With the intention of seizing Jiaozhou in the south, Dang is willing to take the lead in raising troops to build momentum for the country. Even if he dies a hundred times and his clan is wiped out, he will not hesitate to do so. However, he hopes to avenge the hatred of Xiangfan and avenge the hatred of Yiling!
The book contains the fear of dogs and horses. The guilty minister exposed Wu Dang and cried in tears."
One can imagine how many people hid their faces when the Chengdu temple received this letter.
In any case, Wu Dang did not feel sorry for the big man back then.
But the Han Dynasty failed him and Yuan Long and other loyal people to fight bravely.
However, he regarded himself as a criminal, and still did not cool down in his desire to serve the country, and was still willing to sacrifice the lives of his entire family to be loyal to the Han...
This kind of loyalty is even more touching in today's world where benevolence and righteousness are late and the holy way is gradually deteriorating.
Perhaps this is the glory of the Han Dynasty for four hundred years and the interpretation of the loyalty of the scholars.
The emperor Liu Chan personally wrote a reply, praising his loyalty and conferring on him the title of General Jianzhong and Governor of Jiaozhou, asking him to continue to hide his power and bide his time and preserve himself to wait for the right time.
