Chapter 535: Chang'an Changes
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
After Liu Xiu became emperor in Gaoyi, Feng Yi returned to Hanoi. He did not follow Liu Xiu's intention and immediately made his correspondence with Li Yi public, but continued to maintain correspondence with Li Yi.
Feng Yi really hoped that Liu Xiu would accept Li Yi, and in the letters he wrote to Li Yi, he also revealed his true feelings from time to time, which created an illusion for Li Yi, thinking that Liu Xiu had accepted him.
Li Yi will have such an illusion, which is also easy to understand. Liu Xiu has now been proclaimed emperor and is the Son of Heaven, while Feng Yi is just a courtier, how could a courtier have so much courage to dare to hide from the Son of Heaven and communicate frequently with enemy generals?
Therefore, Feng Yi's act of communicating with himself must have been approved by Liu Xiu, so the meaning expressed by Feng Yi in the letter represents Liu Xiu's meaning.
mistakenly thought that Liu Xiu would accept himself, Li Yi was like taking a reassuring pill, and he ignored the actions of the Han army in Hanoi. Feng Yi took this opportunity to lead the Hanoi Army and the Wei Army to cross the Yellow River and enter Henan. Feng Yi's commander did not have many troops, and the soldiers and horses of the two counties were combined, and there were less than 30,000 people, but Feng Yi came too suddenly, and all the counties in Henan were milli
was defenseless and was caught off guard by Feng Yi.
After entering Henan, the soldiers and horses led by Feng Yi were like a whirlwind and clouds, and in just ten days, they took the three counties of Juan County, Yangwu and Yuanwu, which were simply overwhelming and unstoppable.
When Henan Taishou Wubo heard the news, he was shocked and immediately sent a message to Luoyang, asking Zhu Kun and Li Yi to send troops.
Wu Bo sent the letter to Luoyang, Zhu Kun didn't see it at all, and when he arrived at Li Yi, he detained him, and then as if he was nothing, he did what he had to do, and he didn't take Feng Yi's army into Henan seriously at all.
Luoyang held the army in his hands and did not move, while Wu Bo, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, was in a hurry and had no soldiers in his hands.
In this case, Feng Yi was in Henan, and it was inconceivable that he even went down to thirteen counties, and those who surrendered to Feng Yi were 100,000 people. The eastern region of Henan basically fell into Feng Yi's hands.
At this time, Wu Bo also saw that Luoyang could no longer be counted on, so he could only go on his own.
He led the Henan County Army, together with the temporarily recruited Zhuangding, to scrape together more than 30,000 people and go to Shixiang to defeat Feng Yi's army, which was constantly advancing westward.
As a result, in the first battle of Shixiang, the Wubo Department was defeated, more than 30,000 people, almost all the troops were wiped out, and even the Henan Taishou Wubo also died tragically in the chaos.
It was only at this time that Feng Yi made public the correspondence between him and Li Yi, and for a while, Henan was shocked and Luoyang was shocked.
Zhu Kun, who has been kept in the dark, knew at this time that Li Yi and Liu Xiu had already had an affair.
For Li Yi, Zhu Kun hated him so much that he broke his teeth. But to kill Li Yi, Zhu Kun also has a lot of concerns, Li Yi's prestige in the army is quite high, and there are many cronies in the army, if he executes him openly, he will be opposed by the generals.
After thinking about it, Zhu Kun came up with an idea to assassinate. He hired a strong martial arts swordsman with a lot of money, secretly infiltrated Li Yi's mansion, and stabbed Li Yi to death on the bed with a sword while Li Yi was still asleep.
At that time, there were very few people in the rivers and lakes who could be called swordsmen, but any swordsman must be a leader in martial arts, and some swordsman-level masters even came without a trace, went without a trace, and killed people invisibly. Li Yi, the first veteran who followed Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu to rebel in Chungling, with the merger of the Chungling Army and the Green Forest Army, he suddenly turned back to the Green Forest Army, assisted Liu Xuan and the Green Forest Army, successfully killed Liu Xuan, and wanted to kill him
Liu Xiu, never suffer in the future.
But this traitor Li Yi, who made Liu Xiu hate the roots of his teeth, died not vigorously, and it can even be said that he was a nest, but he was assassinated by the swordsmen of the rivers and lakes hired by Zhu Kun, and died in his sleep in a daze.
After Li Yi's death, all the military power of the Luoyang army fell into the hands of Zhu Kun alone, when he was preparing to counterattack Feng Yi's army, the main Han army led by the great Sima Wu Han and Wu Ziyan arrived in Luoyang, and the troops came to the city.
This time he sent troops to Luoyang, Liu Xiuke made up his mind to conquer Luoyang in one fell swoop. Under the command of Wu Han, there were Geng Yi, Zhu You, Cho Qi, Ma Wu, Wang Liang and other generals, the whole army, 300,000 people, surrounded Luoyang City.
Zhu Kun hurriedly ordered that without his order, no one in the city should go out of the city to fight the enemy without authorization. In fact, his order was completely superfluous, even if he didn't say it, with the current situation, no one would dare to go out of the city to die.
The main general of the enemy army is Wu Han, what kind of person is Wu Han, the god of killing without blinking, fighting with Wu Han, isn't that going to die?
The 200,000 Luoyang army led by Zhu Kun held on to the city and closed its doors, and it was not easy for Wu Han to forcibly capture Luoyang City, which was garrisoned by 200,000 people, with 300,000 soldiers and horses.
After attacking the city for more than ten days without success, Wu Han ordered the siege to be stopped, and changed his tactics in time, from siege to siege. Your Luoyang city defense is strong, but there are two or three hundred thousand people in your Luoyang City, and there are more than 200,000 soldiers defending the city, these people always have to eat and drink every day, even if you have enough food and grass in Luoyang City, you can survive the consumption of so many people
Months, two months, can you survive a year and a half? Sooner or later, you will run out of food, and if you don't go out of the city to fight, you will be starved to death in the city.
During the siege of Luoyang led by Wu Han, another earth-shaking change occurred in Chang'an.
After Liu Xuan was beaten away by Zhang Wei and others, he fled to Xinfeng, which was garrisoned by Zhao Meng, and Liu Xuan immediately sent an edict to Wang Kuang, Chen Mu, and Cheng Dan, asking the three of them to come to Xinfeng.
The actions of Zhang Wei, Liao Zhan, Hu Yin and others were really not discussed with Wang Kuang and others, but completely their own actions.
Now the Red Mei Army and Deng Yu's Army are constantly attacking westward, and the enemy is at present, and Chang'an is like this, even the Son of Heaven has been beaten away by Zhang Wei, Liao Zhan, Hu Yin and others, Wang Kuang, Chen Mu, and Cheng Dan are also anxious.
After receiving Liu Xuan's edict, Wang Kuang, Chen Mu, and Cheng Dan rushed to Xinfeng. Wang Kuang's speed was a little slower, Chen Mu and Cheng Dan arrived first, but the two unlucky ones who arrived first were directly beheaded by Liu Xuan's order.
In Liu Xuan's view, the rebellion of Zhang Wei, Liao Zhan, Hu Yin and others could not be their own actions, and they must have been discussed with Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, Chen Mu, Cheng Dan and others in advance.
Because of his indecision, he failed to kill first, which led to today's end, and now, he must no longer be merciful.
The Green Forest Army consisted of three main armies, the Xinshi Army, the Pinglin Army, and the Xiajiang Army.
Chen Mu, the big leader of the Pinglin Army, and Cheng Dan, the deputy leader of the Xiajiang Army, the two veterans and backbones of the Green Forest Army, single-handedly contributed to Liu Xuan's claim to be the emperor, but in the end they died in the hands of Liu Xuan.
Plant the cause and get the cause, plant the fruit and get the fruit, back then, for their own selfish interests, they raised Liu Xuan, the puppet, and now, they themselves finally tasted the bitter fruit and were eaten by this puppet.
Now Liu Xuan is almost in a state of madness, looking at everyone as if he has bad intentions, and everyone wants to give him a knife. Even Zhao Meng, who is perverse and unscrupulous on weekdays, has now become much more honest.
Hearing the news that Liu Xuan had killed Chen Mu and Cheng Dan, Wang Kuang was shocked, where did he dare to go to Xinfeng, and hurriedly changed his route to Chang'an to join Zhang Wei and others. Liu Xuan took Zhao Meng, Li Song and other cronies to counterattack Chang'an.
The two sides fought hard for a month, and finally Wang Kuang, Zhang Wei and others were defeated, and led their troops to escape from Chang'an and fled in the wilderness.
During this time, the people of the green forest department were not less in Chang'an City, bullying men and women, and robbing what they saw, which provoked Chang'an City and complained.
After Wang Kuang, Zhang Wei and others were defeated and fled, Liu Xuan returned to Chang'an and re-entered Chang'an.
But Liu Xuan never dreamed that Wang Kuang and others, who had fled, would surrender directly to the Red Eyebrow Army, make a leading party for the Red Eyebrow Army, and lead the Red Eyebrow Army to Chang'an.
Now Liu Xuan, who has long been injured, compared with the morale of the Red Eyebrow Army, the difference in strength between the two sides is too great.
Li Song is worthy of Liu Xuan's favor, and he can be called loyal to Liu Xuan, knowing that he is invincible, he still led the army out of the city to meet the battle, desperately resisting the Red Mei Army.
However, the difference between the two sides in terms of strength, morale, and even battle was too great, and in the end Li Song was defeated and captured alive by the Red Mei army.
Li Song's younger brother Li Fan, who served as the captain of the city gate, escorted the captured Li Song and threatened Li Pan to let him open the city gate, otherwise he would break Li Song's body into ten thousand pieces in front of him.
In order to save his brother, Li Pan had no choice but to open the city gate, and this time, the Red Eyebrow army swarmed in and attacked Chang'an City.
Knowing that Chang'an City was broken, Liu Xuan was so frightened that he fled, and ran out of Chang'an again.
The first time he fled, he was forced by the rebellion of Zhang Wei and others, although he fled, but he was relatively calm, at least he brought the queen and concubines, and carried a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, just the carriage, there were hundreds of them.
And this time Liu Xuan's escape was much more tragic, he didn't bring anyone with him, only a few attendants followed him, and he ran out of Chang'an in a hurry.
Many people in Chang'an saw Liu Xuan who fled, and no one wept for the son of heaven, but people chased after the horse, running and shouting loudly: "Your Majesty is in Ma Xie City!" ”
Liu Xuan heard the call of the people, stopped the warhorse, looked around, then turned over and dismounted, knelt and kowtowed in the direction of Chang'an City, and at the same time, he couldn't help crying loudly. The people stood around, watching coldly. Since Liu Xuan entered Chang'an, he has basically not done a few good things for the benefit of the people, and the lives of the people are even worse than those of Wang Mang
。
Liu Xuan had no soldiers available in Chang'an, and he couldn't recruit the strong men in the city with money, which shows the degree of resentment of the people of Chang'an.
After Xie Cheng, Liu Xuan remounted his war horse in solitude and fled in the direction of Gaoling in Fufeng County. The people of Chang'an thought that they could finally live a good life in Ansheng after running away from Liu Xuan and ushering in red eyebrows, but they were all wrong, and it was a big mistake, the real suffering of the people of Chang'an had just begun.
