Externally, Yuchijiong went north to make friends with Gao Baoning to contact the Turks; to the south he contacted Chen State and agreed to cede land along the Yangtze River and Huaihe River.
It can be said that the east side of the Great Zhou Dynasty has basically responded to Yuchi Jiong and obeyed Yuchi Jiong's orders. Their strength is quite impressive. It seems that they have reached a state of confrontation between the Western Wei/Da Zhou and the Eastern Wei/Qi.
Of course Pu Liurujian would not allow this situation to happen again, so he sent troops to attack Wei Chijun and appointed Wei Xiaokuan as marshal.
Yuchidun led 100,000 men to occupy Wude and stationed themselves on the east bank of Qinshui River (southeast of Shanxi Province). Wei Xiaokuan and others led various armies to confront each other across the water. Yuchidun set up a formation for twenty miles and commanded the army to retreat slightly.
He wanted to wait until Wei Xiaokuan's army was halfway through before launching an attack. Wei Xiaokuan took advantage of the opponent's retreat and advanced with drums beating. Wei Chidun was defeated.
We have seen many battles like this. The generals were thinking about retreating. However, the enemy generals took advantage of their retreat to boost morale and morale. They also took advantage of the fact that the soldiers on both sides were nervous when they first encountered them.
Why retreat? Seeing the enemy's aggressive attack, you think your own side is unfavorable and can easily win. This retreat is also a skill. How to retreat so as not to be exploited by the enemy and achieve your own goals.
It was very bad for Yuchi Jiong's side to be defeated at the first contact. Wei Xiaokuan took advantage of the victory to pursue and attacked Yecheng with unstoppable momentum.
Oops, it seems that there is no introduction before. The administrative seat of Xiangzhou is Yecheng. This is very important. You must remember it, because this... has nothing to do with the other things and is related to the following article, haha.
Ahem, let’s get back to the topic.
Although we have made great progress all the way to Yecheng, it is not easy to fight here. In addition to being a siege battle, it is not easy to fight. There is also Yuchi Jiong guarding here. Yuchi Jiong is also a veteran, and of course he will not commit some low-level crimes.
mistake.
According to historical records, Yu Chi Jiong had 130,000 troops at this time. Coupled with Captain Chi Jiong's powerful deployment, Wei Xiaokuan and others fell into a bitter battle and retreated again and again.
It was good to get here, but the people in Ye City ran out of the city to watch the battle and gathered into a human wall. Gao Jiong and Li Xun reorganized their formation and rushed towards the onlookers. The people were frightened and took advantage of the momentum to attack. Yuchi
Jiong was defeated and occupied Yecheng.
I said earlier that Yu Chi would not make stupid mistakes, but now he slaps the bear in the face, alas. However, the bear doesn't understand this. Even if the people are idle and have mushrooms all over their bodies, they still adhere to China's habit of gathering together to watch the fun.
"Excellent tradition", even risking one's life, ran to the battlefield to watch the fun, but why didn't Yuchi stop him? Is a place like the battlefield a place where ordinary people can come? If "the common people are watching" is a fact, then the bear really wants to
I suspect that Yu Chijiong is showing off. He failed to show off and ended up showing off the great situation.
Yuchi Jiong retreated to the north city and defended it, while Wei Xiaokuan sent troops to surround him. Li Xun and He Lou Zigan led their subordinates to ascend the city first. Yuchi Jiong walked up to the tower and shot several people to death. However, the situation was irreversible, and finally Yuchi Jiong committed suicide. Yuchi Jiong followed.
From the time the army was raised to the time of its defeat, it lasted sixty-eight days.
His nephew Yuchiqin, son Yuchidun and others fled eastward, but were overtaken and captured. Some generals were still resisting, but in the end the situation was over. Sima Xiao, the general manager of Yunzhou, was defeated and led his troops to defect to the Chen Dynasty. The remaining
The tribesmen fled, some were caught, and some were killed. The turmoil caused by Yuchi Jiong was put down one after another.
In addition to those who were killed, some of Yuchijiong's family members were expelled from the palace and became palace maids. For example, Yuchizhen, the palace maid who was favored by Pu Liurujian but was beaten to death by Queen Dugu Jialuo, was Yuchijiong's granddaughter.
.
As for the reasons for Yuchijiong's failure, "Book of Zhou" records: Yuchijiong's energy declined in his later years, and he was confused by his second wife Wang, and his sons were often at odds with each other. He appointed Cui Danu, the chief minister of the Kaifu, as the chief historian, and most of the others were appointed to the post of chief historian.
Cui Danu was a literati from Yongqi. He had no talent or strategy, and his governance was out of order and failed to make corrections. This can be regarded as one of the reasons, but Gou Xiong believes that the most important thing is the great Zhou Dynasty in Yu Wenyun
Under the rule, people lost their hearts and people lost confidence in the rule of the Zhou Dynasty. Although many people responded to Yuchi Jiong to resist Pu Liurujian's dictatorship, how many of these people really wanted to protect the emperor? Even Yuchi Jiong
, Although he was loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty in the historical review, Gou Xiong really didn’t think that a person whose strength was comparable to Pu Liu Rujian could have no ideas. Perhaps Gou Xiong thought too narrowly. It seemed that he was united in resisting Pu Liu Rujian.
They all had Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, which also caused their disunity. Therefore, the "Yuchijong Rebellion" started out very strongly, but was quickly put down. Especially Wei Xiaokuan, who started from Qinshui and followed him as if to be a joke.
When they arrived at Yecheng, they encountered almost no obstacles, which shows how loose their defenses were. The historical comment said, "Although Yuchi Jiong is an old general, he is already very comatose." Judging from the rebellion alone, this is indeed the case.
Regarding the disappearance of Yecheng:
Yecheng began when Cao Wei expanded Yebei City on the basis of the old city. It has been the capital of Cao Wei, Later Zhao, Ran Wei, Qian Yan, Eastern Wei, and Northern Qi. It has been the political, economic, military, and cultural center of the Yellow River Basin for four centuries.
as long as.
However, after Yuchijiong raised an army against Pu Liurujian, in order to prevent the resurgence of the anti-Yang forces in Hebei, Pu Liurujian ordered the burning of Ye City, turning the entire city into ruins, and destroyed Xiangzhou, Wei County, Ye County and most of them.
The residents moved southward to Anyang City. At this time, Anyang replaced Yecheng and became the political, economic and cultural center of this area. The original Ye County area was transferred to Anyang County, and Anyang County was renamed Ye County.
Lingzhi County.
The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties was lost in history...
After putting down Yuchijiong's rebellion, Pu Liurujian turned around and wanted to deal with the five kings who were still in Chang'an, as well as Yu Wenyong's sons and other royal families. He was ready to think of a way to catch them before they could react.
But, I suddenly thought of something. There are Yu Wenxian, Yuwen Xiaobo and others in Kunyu Kingdom, especially Yu Wenxian and Yuwen Xiaobo. Even now, these two people are still very famous in the Zhou Dynasty. If
If Kun Yuguo helps these two people, his situation will be difficult.
After thinking about it, I asked Liu Fang and Zheng Yi:
"Is there any news in Kunyu Kingdom?"
Zheng Yi is the most professional in flattering people. When Pu Liu Rujian mentioned Kun Yu Kingdom, he guessed what he was worried about. Therefore, as soon as Pu Liu Rujian finished speaking, Zheng Yi said:
"There has been no movement in Kunyu Kingdom."
Pu Liurujian nodded and stopped talking.
In the Kingdom of Kunyu, Wang Gui had a temper tantrum and then calmed down. The matter had reached this point and it was useless to make any more fuss. Moreover, the children also found a way to step down for their own good and began to get used to the new behavior.
