Heroes of Northern History

It is said that Li Yuanzhong went to the Yamen to meet Gao Huan's troops.Gao Huan knew that Yuanzhong liked to drink, suspected that he was a drinker, and did not meet him immediately.

Yuan Zhong got out of the car and sat alone, drinking and eating meat, as if there was no one else around, and said to the gatekeeper: "I have heard that the public is recruiting Junjie. "

The doorman reported that Gao Huan came out to meet him immediately, led him into the tent, and set up a drink.After drinking ([shāng]) (wine cup), Li Yuanzhong took the plain zither and played a generous elegy. After the song, he said to Gao Huan, "Do you still want to serve the Erzhu family?"

Gao Huan said: "Wealth and honor are all caused by him, how dare you not do your best?"

Li Yuanzhong said: "Not a hero."Brother Gao Ganyong has come? "

At that time, Gao Gan had already seen Gao Huan, and Gao Huan lied to him, saying: "My uncle is older, why would you come?" Since Gao Gan and Gao Huan had the same surname, Gao Huan called him Congshu (uncle). "

Li Yuanzhong said: "Although he is rude, he is sensible."

Gao Huan said, "You are really drunk."

Let someone help you out. "

"Li Yuanzhong refused to get up, and Sun Tengjin said: "Heaven sent him, and he must not be violated. So Gao Huan stayed to talk to him again. Li Yuanzhong shed tears generously, and Gao Huan couldn't help feeling sad.

Li Yuanzhong said: "Yinzhou is small, without food and weapons, and can't achieve great things. If you go to Jizhou, brothers Gao Qianyong will work for Minggong, and Yinzhou affairs can also be entrusted to you. Jizhou and Yinzhou are both Together, Cangzhou, Yingzhou, Youzhou, and Dingzhou are naturally submissive. Only Liu Dan is cunning and may resist, but he is not a match for the Duke. It’s the right time! It’s the right time! Don’t miss it.”

Gao Huan hurriedly took his hand, thanked him and said: "Jun Zhen is Gao Huan's god of luck, how dare Gao refuse to listen to Jun's words?"

Li Yuanzhong left by secret appointment.When Gao Huan arrived in Shandong, he was a soldier, and the people did not commit any crimes.At that time, the wheat was ripening. Gao Huan passed by here, fearing that the horse would hurt the wheat, he personally led the soldiers to lead the horses on foot, and the people were very happy.Hearing it from far and near, everyone said: "Gao Jinzhou leads troops, just like Liu Shijun of the Three Kingdoms."

The people were able to live and work in peace and contentment, and they fell in love with him even more.The army was short of food, so they asked Liu Dan, the governor of Xiangzhou, for food, but Liu Dan objected.There is a car camp renting Mi Wanshi, and Gao Huan ordered the soldiers to take it, but Dan couldn't resist it.Entering Xindu, Feng Longzhi, Gao Gan and others opened the gates of the city to accept him and regard him as the master.At that time, Gao Aocao was plundering land. When he heard that Gao Gan and Feng Longzhi were giving in to each other in Jizhou, he was very unconvinced and said, "Why should a man be afraid of others? My brother is simply cowardly." He humiliated him by giving him clothes worn by the widow. "

Gao Huan said: "They don't understand my heart." He wanted to send someone to tell him but he didn't get it.At that time, Gao Huan's son Gao Chengnian had been in the army for ten years, and he said to his father, "I ask you to recruit him." Gao Huan agreed, and the people around him said: "My son is young, Gao Ao Cao is rough and brave, I am afraid I will lose if I go. "

Gao Huan said: "Although Gao Aocao is rough, he may not dare to hurt my son. Although Xiao Cheng is young, he is very smart and knows how to do things. If Huan does not send Cheng, it will not be enough to unite people." So ordered ten Many cavalry followed.When Gao Cheng met Gao Aocao, he treated him very well, just like a son treats his father.Gao Aocao said, "What are you doing here?"

Gao Cheng said: "May I ask whether the uprising of the Jun family is for the king or for myself." Gao Aocao said: "My ambition is to destroy Erzhu, so that I can vent my anger for the king."

Gao Cheng said: "Okay, my son's ambition is what my father meant. Why don't you work together to make the world stable, and there is no need to make trouble like an enemy? I heard that those who know current affairs are heroes, and with your brother's talent, you will be determined." I can understand, by the way, my father didn't let others come here, but sent me here, just to express my own meaning clearly, I hope Young Master can understand."

Gao Aocao was heartbroken when he saw that the young master was eloquent and calm, and said, "I heard it. I hope to go home with you." Then he rode back together.

Gao Huan was very happy, and said to Gao Aocao: "I am planning to achieve a great cause with you, you have to help me." ?”

Gao Huan loved his courage, appointed him as the governor, and favored him more than the old man.Er Zhuzhao heard that Gao Huan had arrived in Jizhou, and his army was getting stronger and stronger. I am afraid that it will be difficult to control in the future, so he secretly played for the emperor to give him a heavy title, summoned him to Beijing, and then killed him.The emperor then issued an edict, making Gao Huan the king of Bohai and calling him into the court.Gao Huan accepted the prince, but did not enter the court.

Gao Huan is very smart, he knows that if he enters the court, he will surely die, so he will not follow Er Zhurong's example and foolishly enter the court. "

Besides, when Hou Yuan marched against Liu Lingzhu and came to Gucheng, Hou Yuan was afraid of his army and wanted to lead his troops westward, occupying the dangerous pass and watching the changes.The lieutenant general scolded Yanqing and said: "Spirits help the mediocre, and they use black magic to confuse everyone. When the soldiers arrive, they all rely on their talismans. How can they fight to the death with me? It's better to station outside the city and return to the west with lies. When Lingzhu hears this, he will relax, and then quietly lead the army to attack, if he dares to come, he will be captured by us." Li Yuan obeyed, went out of the city and stationed in the west of the city, claiming to return.

The next day, he selected a thousand elite cavalry and set off at night to destroy his fortress.Liu Ling assisted in the escape and was killed.When Liu Ling helped raise troops, he said from divination: "At the end of March, I must enter Dingzhou. The Erzhu family will soon perish." When Liu Lingzhu put his head into Dingzhou in a box, it was the end of this month.Great news, General Garzhuzhao Tianzhu.

Er Zhuzhao resigned the title of General Tianzhu, saying: "This is my uncle's last official position, and I dare not accept it." Soon after, Er Zhuzhao was granted the title of governor of ten prefectures and the hereditary governor of Bingzhou. Er Zhuzhao was very happy.Er Zhuzhao's madness and tyranny became even more severe, and the soldiers all wanted to be separated.Zhennan General Hu Lujin ran eastward to Yu Huan, urging Gao Huan to attack Erzhu.Gao Huan knew that he was brave and regarded him as one of his own.You Erzhu was a member of Zhaoshu, who was a general of Zhaobei, who was worried about cruelty, and soon after his demise, he led thousands of riders out of Jingxing, pretending to be patrolling refugees, and attached himself to Huan in the east. "

Gao Huan saw that the hearts of the people belonged to him, so he called Sun Teng, Lou Zhao, Duan Rong, and Wei Jing in the secret room, and said to them: "Now the Quartet hopes that Gao will revolt, so that Erzhu can be eliminated, so that the people of the world can live a better life." Days, I must not disappoint the expectations of the people of the world. However, if the townspeople live in peace for a while, they must first stir up their hearts before they can make trouble, and you will know." Everyone retreated knowingly.

So he forged the Wanren Letter, and wanted to assign the people of the six towns to Qihu as a trilogy, so that they would deliver it at the gate and announce it to the public. Everyone was very afraid.He also forged the Bingzhou military talisman, fine-tuned the steps of relocation and crusade against Luoji, and started on the same day.Gao Huan sent ten thousand people to be sent away, and Sun Teng and Wei Jing asked for a five-day leniency.It will be sent out on the agreed date.Sun and Wei asked for another five days.Five days later, Gao Huan ordered to tell everyone: "It's hard to relax this time." He went to the suburbs to see him off in person, and Xuelei shook hands to say goodbye.Everyone wept bitterly, resounding through the countryside.

Gao Huan then told them: "You and I are both people who left our hometown, just like a family. We should be together forever, but I didn't expect it! Now Zhixixiang is dead, and he will die again in the later military period. When you die, how can I bear to see you die innocently?"

Everyone kowtowed for help, Gao Huan said, "What should I do?" Everyone said, "There is only rebellion!" Gao Huan said, "It depends on strategy, and you have to choose one person as the leader. I don't know who can be the leader?"

Everyone said: "Only the king can be our master." Gao Huan said: "You are from my hometown, and it will be difficult to control after a long time. Ge Rong is the proof? Although there are millions of people, they can't be controlled, and they are finally wiped out. Now I am the master, and it should be different from before. I must not invade the Han people or violate military orders, and I can live or die. Otherwise, I will be laughed at by the people of the world."

Everyone knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "I will do my best to obey the king's order." So they slaughtered cattle to reward the soldiers, and revolted in Xindu, but they did not publicly say that he rebelled against the Erzhu clan.Soon, Li Yuanzhong raised his troops and approached Yinzhou.Erzhu Yusheng closed the city and refused to defend.Gao Huan pretended to help, ordered Gao Gan to lead the crowd to rescue him, and secretly sent someone to instruct Li Yuanzhong.When Gao Gan arrived, Li Yuanzhong was defeated and fled.So Qingqi went into the city to meet Erzhu Yusheng and command the military together.Erzhu Yusheng believed it and went out of the city to comfort the army, so he was captured and killed.

Li Yuanzhong entered the city to occupy the city. Gao Gan held Er Zhu Yusheng's head to meet Gao Huan. Gao Huan patted his chest and said, "It's time to rebel!"

So he appointed Li Yuanzhong as the governor of Yinzhou to guard Guang'a.Gao Huan then issued an appeal to all states and counties to protest Erzhu's crimes.It roughly means: support a strong army outside, and rule the world everywhere; hold great power inside, and force nine times with fierce power.When wolves gather together, the crime of killing the king is obvious; when lizards gather in groups, it is a sign of usurping the country.One door helps the evil, and the heaven and earth are sad.If you don't kill you and others, the world will not be safe.Today, the minister raised his troops to revolt, and the plan is decided by the public.As the banner points out, traitors and thieves will be wiped out; when the army comes, traitors will be wiped out.The upper solid sky is located in Baosang, and the lower one saves the people from the fire and water.and so on.When Shilong saw it, his face turned pale with shock, but he couldn't show it. "

Let's talk about Wei Sikong Yang Jin, a filial friend from a family background, who cooks together with Cuan (cooking and eating in the same stove).The prefect of the seven counties in the gate, the 32 governors of the state, and the four brothers of Jin, all rank among the three princes.Emperor Xiaozhuang executed Er Zhurong, and Yang Kan participated in the plan.

Er Zhuzhao entered Luoyang, and Yang Kan was afraid of disaster, so he fled back to his hometown and lived in his old residence in Huayin.Yang Jin and his brother Shun stayed in Luoyang.Erzhu Tianguang guarded Yongzhou, jealous, killed Yang Kan, and wiped out his family.He wrote to Erzhu Shilong, and Erzhu Shilong accused Yang of rebellion, and sent troops to surround his house, killing both young and old.No one who has heard of it does not hate it.Jin Zhimin, named Zunyan, was eighteen years old, studious and talented, and happened to be away at that time.When I got home, the gate of the city was closed, and I stayed with my relatives, so I was spared.Hearing about the family affairs the next day, he fled overnight.Considering contemporary heroes, only He Liuhun can avenge him, so he came to Jizhou.Just in time for joy, kowtow in front of the horse, crying about family difficulties.

Gao Huan was in the midst of an uprising and was trying to win people's hearts. Knowing that he was the son of a famous family, he stayed in the mansion.Yang Jin's discussion of Erzhu's strategy was all gratifying, and Gao Huan treated him better from now on. "

When Er Zhuzhao heard that Er Zhuyu was alive and dead, he lost his temper and personally led [-] infantry and cavalry soldiers out of Jingxingkou to attack Yinzhou.Li Yuanzhong was afraid, so he abandoned the city and fled to Xindu.Then Zhu Zhao captured Yinzhou, but did not dare to fight Gao Huan immediately, so he asked Erzhu Zhongyuan and Dulu for help.At the beginning, when the two heard that Gao Huan was raising troops, they all laughed and said, "This child will die soon, and he can be captured with one drum." They got Erzhu Zhaoshu and met to march.

Gao Huan knew that Er Zhuzhao had arrived, and said to the generals, "Now we have to fight him." Because of the isolation from the court, Sun Teng persuaded Gao Huan to establish a new king to give orders, and the hearts of the soldiers were firm.Gao Huan followed him, so he established Yuen Long, the prefect of Bohai, as emperor, and changed his reign name to Zhongxing.Xiao Huan was appointed as the prime minister of the servant and the governor of all Chinese and foreign military forces.Gao Gan served as a servant, Gao Aocao served as the Hushi General, Sun Teng served as the Minister Zuo Pushe, and Feng Longzhi served as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.The rest are poor in entering the ranks.Li Gaocheng was the son of Prince Bohai. "

One day, a total of 10 people from Erzhu Zhongyuan and Erzhu Dulu came to help Wanren.It was also reported that Er Zhu Shilong sent generals Hu Sichun, He Ba Pohu, and Jia Xianzhi to lead an army of [-] troops. The army was very powerful, so Gao Huan used countermeasures.Spread rumors and hope that the enemy will kill each other.

It was said that Er Zhu Shilong, Er Zhu Dulu, and Er Zhu Zhongyuan wanted to kill Er Zhu Zhao, and that Er Zhu Zhao and Gao Huan conspired secretly to kill Er Zhu Dulu and so on.At this time, Erzhu Zhao's army was stationed in front of Guanghe Mountain, and Erzhu Zhongsu and Erzhu Dulu camps were in the north of Yangping County, a few miles apart.Hearing rumors, everyone was suspicious and fearful, and hesitated. "

"Er Zhu's law said: "Wan Ren and He Liuhun hate each other, can they still be of the same heart?But in case he suspects, should I send someone to persuade him? Erzhu Zhongyuan sent He Basheng and Hu Sichun to persuade him again and again. Erzhu Zhao no longer doubted, so he led three hundred light cavalry and came to Erzhu Zhongyuan's camp with them.

Zhu Zhongsu and Er Zhu Dulu went into the tent one after another and were sitting in the drafting room. Before they could speak, Wan Ren, who had a completely different color, waved his horsewhip and stared at him with a long howl.Suspecting Er Zhu Zhongyuan and others had changed suddenly, he immediately got up and ran out, got on his horse and left.

Erzhu Zhongyuan sent Hu Sichun and He Basheng to chase after him, and Wan Renzhi took them back. Erzhu Zhongsu and Erzhu Dulu were very frightened and led their troops back. "" Wan Ren returned to the camp to kill Hu, so he listed his crimes and said: "You killed Wei Kegu, the first crime. Tianzhu was defeated and did not come with Er Zhu Shilong, the second crime. Instead, do your best for the court. Zhenger Zhu Zhongyuan, the third crime. I have wanted to kill you for a long time."

Order to launch beheading.He Basheng said: "Wei Kegu is a serious problem for the country. Our father and son killed him, but we have no merit, but still have crimes. Is there any justice in this? Tianzhu's death, the king punishes the ministers, the victory would rather lose the royal family than the court? Today I was arrested, life and death depend on the king. But the enemy is now, the flesh and blood of the Wang family has become the enemy. From ancient times to the present, there is no reason not to perish like this. He Basheng is not afraid of death, but the king is afraid of miscalculation." Er Zhuzhao Seeing that what he said made sense, he gave up.

When the two returned, they saw that all the troops had left, so they also returned to Luoyang. "

Gao Huan was very happy to hear that, so he marched into the army to confront Wan Ren. "In the general battle, Gao Huan said to the generals: "In today's battle, if you win, you will succeed, and if you lose, you will live hard. Although the two sides retreat, Wanren's army is strong, and it is not easy to defeat. I hope everyone will work hard."

Duan Shao said: "Your Majesty, don't worry.We have won the hearts of the world, and those who have won the hearts of the people have won the world since ancient times.The Erzhu family killed the emperor on the top, slaughtered the princes on the middle, and harmed the people on the bottom.Your Majesty fights against rebellion with justice, like boiling water to pour snow, how can he not win? " "Gao Huan said: "I don't know what God's will is?"

Wan Ren boasted of his bravery, but he lost the hearts of the generals. The wise do not use strategy, and the brave do not use force. The human heart is gone, and God's will can be known, so why doubt it? "When the three armies heard this, their courage became stronger. Gao Huan sent Duan Shao to lead a thousand cavalry to attack the forward first. Duan Shao took the lead and rushed over. Just as the enemy led Xi Chenggui, they confronted each other twice. , killed Xi Chenggui one by one. All the soldiers shouted loudly and rushed into the battle, fighting indiscriminately."

"Er Zhuzhao, who was in the rear army, knew that the front team had lost, and hurriedly urged his men to catch up. Seeing a young general who was very brave, he shouted: "What are you, kid, you dare to act wild here? "Duan Shao didn't reply, he raised his spear and stabbed. Wan Ren was furious, he blocked him casually, waved his sharp spear, and stabbed several times. Duan Shao was no match for him, so he returned to his horse and left."

Wan Ren shouted: "The defeated general will leave!" He clapped his horse and caught up.I saw an army rushing forward. The first general was Dou Tai, who caught Wanren and fought.Duan Shao also turned around and attacked.Wan Ren has unstoppable courage, even the second general.At that time, Gao Huan led the army to advance together, and the shouts shook the sky, and the two sides fought in melee.Kudiqian also came to join the battle when he saw that the second general was invincible.The people from the six towns were abused by Wan Ren on weekdays, and they hated them so much. When they met today, they wished to kill them all.So everyone works hard, everyone dies.

Gao Huan's soldiers all counted one as a hundred, and Er Zhuzhao's army was defeated.Seeing that the army had collapsed, Wan Ren felt flustered and had no choice but to flee.The three generals did not give up, and chased for ten miles before giving up.Wan Ren escaped and collected remnants, less than a third of them. Shandong did not dare to stay for a long time and fled back to Jinyang in a hurry.

Gao Huan captured five thousand soldiers and collected countless food, grass and weapons.The generals came to congratulate him. Gao Huan said: "Although Wan Ren was not beheaded, it is enough to defeat his guts. However, his army can use it. Now we should take advantage of this vigor and attack Xiangzhou to gain momentum."

All the generals said: "We will obey the order." Gaixiangzhou is Yecheng, the place where the emperor built his capital, so he is eager to take it. "If you want to know what will happen next, let's listen to the next chapter to break it down."
