Chapter 566: Three Generals Battle Liu Yuan

PS: Old convention, update after two o'clock, please forgive me! ……………………………………………………………………………………………… Wang Ji's father, Wang Hun, once served as a captain of the Yue Cavalry, when Sima Wang went out to supervise Guanzhong, Ren appointed Wang Hun to guard Chen Cang, and later Chen Cang was lost, Wang Hun was martyred, Sima Zhao took pity on his loyalty, and left Wang Ji by his side.

Wang Ji was a native of Taiyuan, and at that time, the Hu people moved inward, and Bingzhou was a place where Han and Hu lived together, and Wang Ji easily got acquainted with Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan was a descendant of Mao Dunshan Yu, the leader of the Xiongnu during the Western Han Dynasty. After Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, ruled the world and established the Han Dynasty, he marched to destroy the Xiongnu, but the siege of Baideng made Liu Bang suffer enough, and he was not allowed to marry the daughter of a clan as a princess to Mao Dun Shan Yu, and made a brother with Mao Dun Shan Yu, so the descendants of Mao Dun Shan Yu took Liu as his surname.

In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the son of Wuzhu Liuruo Shan Yu called himself Nandan Yu by the king, and entered the Meiji of Xihe to settle down. During the Zhongping period, Qiangqu Shan Yu sent his son Yu Fuluo to lead troops to aid the Eastern Han Dynasty and pacify the Yellow Turban Army. At that time, it was encountered that Qiangqu Shan Yu was killed by the countrymen, so Yu Fuluo left the soldiers led by him in the Eastern Han Dynasty and called himself Shan Yu. Immediately after Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Yu Fuluo led troops to plunder Taiyuan and Hedong, and then stationed in Hanoi. After Yu Fuluo's death, his younger brother Hu Chuquan succeeded him and appointed Liu Bao, the son of Yu Fuluo, as the king of Zuoxian, and Liu Bao was Liu Yuan's father. Later, Cao Cao divided Huchuquan's soldiers into five divisions, appointed Liu Bao as the left commander, and the rest of the commanders were also served by the surname Liu.

This Liu Yuan was extremely smart when he was young, although he was a Hu person, but he was extremely proficient in the culture of the Han people, not only did he study the Four Books and Five Classics, but also liked the art of war. As a Hu person. Liu Yuan naturally inherited the good physique of the family, don't look at Liu Yuan is only seventeen years old this year, but he was born with a tiger's arm and a bear's waist, eight feet six inches tall, and extremely burly. His beard was more than three feet long, and he had three red hairs on his heart. It is three feet six inches long.

In this era, all people who are born with different phases are highly valued, Sima Yan's long hair reaches the ground and his hands are over his knees, and he is regarded by Pei Xiu as having the appearance of an emperor, this Liu Yuan is also very valued, at that time, Cui Yizhi, a person from Tunliu, and Gongshi Yu from Xiangling are good at giving people a look, and they are very surprised when they see Liu Yuan. And they told each other, "This man is very good-looking, and I have never seen it." ”

Therefore, in the Bingzhou area, Liu Yuan is still quite famous, as a Taiyuan Wang Hun naturally attaches great importance to Liu Yuan, his son Wang Ji and Liu Yuan in the same year, Wang Hun made Wang Ji and Liu Yuan befriended, so Wang Ji is not good with Liu Yuan. But it can also be called small, and the relationship between the two has always been very good.

Afterward. Wang Ji and Liu Yuan both left Bingzhou one after another, Wang Hun served as a captain of the Yue Cavalry, and Wang Ji naturally followed him to Luoyang. Later, Liu Yuan also went to Luoyang, but Liu Yuan came to Luoyang, but he did not come to be an official, because Liu Yuan's father Liu Bao was the left commander of the Huns. So he was sent to Luoyang as a hostage.

Therefore, at the time of the Luoyang Incident, Liu Yuan happened to be in the palace of the King of Jin, and seeing that Sima Yan did not have any capable generals by his side, Wang Ji recommended Liu Yuan to Sima Yan.

Liu Yuan was not only born with a strong force. Moreover, he is proficient in bows and horses, proficient in all eighteen weapons, and has the fierceness and fierceness that the Huns should have. When Sima Yan heard this, he was very pleased, and immediately sent someone to summon Liu Yuan.

After a short time, Liu Yuan led a horse like coals to the palace gate, covered his heart with his hands, bent down to salute, and saluted Sima Yan with the standard etiquette of the Huns.

"I don't know why the son summoned the lowly?"

Sima Yan said: "The Marquis of Wuyang took advantage of the serious illness of the King of Jin, intending to usurp the throne, and now he is leading his troops to besiege the palace of the King of Jin. ”

Liu Yuan looked at the situation outside the palace, but he was very clear, but Liu Yuan was not the kind of person who had no brains, after a few words of praise, he would be able to sell his life to the other party, and he would be thanked, wouldn't that be nonsense, after the matter was completed, Sima Yan casually rewarded a hundred thousand yuan or gave a sesame mung bean official, that is also called heavy thanks, Liu Yuan, as the son of the left handsome of the Huns, naturally will not take some money in his eyes, he will never take risks for such a small profit.

Liu Yuan Gu Zuo said in a deep voice: "The thieves outside the palace are so strong that they are not competent. ”

Sima Yan didn't understand that Liu Yuan was bargaining, he also knew that people were not subordinates of your Sima family, but they were temporarily living in the capital as hostages, and they were actually not obliged to help, Sima Yan is now also suffering from the lack of generals under his subordinates, so he said: "Who in the world does not know that Liu Gongzi is brave and crowns the three armies, and the head of the general can also be taken among the ten thousand people. ”

Taishou is an official position of 2,000 stones, it is the threshold of high-ranking officials, generally there is no qualifications or no merits, it is difficult to give it in person, Sima Yan seems to be in a hurry, now it is a critical moment, it is the time to employ people, Sima Yan can't take care of a lot, and immediately named Liu Yuan as the party Taishou, and asked him to lead the troops to fight.

Liu Yuan's face was happy, he was a Huns, if there was no great merit, it was almost impossible to get a high-ranking official like Taishou, now it was a good opportunity, before the war, he got the position of the party Taishou, which is no different from a pie falling from the sky, if you can help Sima Yan withdraw from the army, it is estimated that the position can climb up again, and it is very possible to be a thorn or a governor. At that moment, Liu Yuan gladly accepted the order, took the five hundred assigned to him by Sima Yan and some of his entourage, opened the palace gate, and killed him.

In the formation of the army, Zhao Zhuo had just killed He Gang, and the morale of the army was great, but when he saw the palace gate open, he killed another branch of men.

Liu Yin saw that the leader of the army had an extraordinary appearance, as if he was not from the Central Plains, so he asked, "Who is this?" ”

Sima You knew Liu Yuan, and he also suggested to Sima Zhao to kill Liu Yuan, thinking that Liu Yuan had different ambitions and would be a great enemy in the future, but Sima Zhao did not listen. At that moment, Sima You said: "This person is Liu Yuan, the son of Liu Bao, the left commander of the Huns, who is extremely brave and must not be underestimated." ”

When Liu Yin heard this, his eyes were blazing, and he ordered in a low voice: "Kill him for me at all costs!" (To be continued.) )
