【Zhenhai Mutiny】
When Huang Chao was in chaos in the Central Plains, gangs of bandits were prevalent in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The central court was powerless and local officials were helpless. Therefore, Liu Chao occupied Changshu, Wang Ao occupied Kunshan, Wang Teng occupied Huating, and Song Kefu occupied Wuxi... There were countless big thieves and giant bandits, and countless small thieves and bandits. The gangs of thieves are intertwined, and there is no lack of fire and criticism. The lives of the people are in ruins, and the people are in dire straits.
Zhou Bao, the military envoy of Zhenhai, was ordered to organize regiment training and recruit troops on his own to protect the country and the people.
Zhou Bao recruited troops in Hangzhou and organized them into eight independent regiments, which were sent to various counties to guard them. They were known as the "Eight Capitals of Hangzhou", the most famous of which was "Shijingdu". The regiment leader was Dong Chang, and there was another group in the regiment. An outstanding general named Qian Liu. The story of Dong Chang and Qian Liu will be described in detail later.
The "Hangzhou Badu" fought bravely and quickly disintegrated and defeated the bandit forces and restored regional stability.
Huang Chao invaded Chang'an, and the emperor was lucky to be in Shu. He ordered the soldiers and horses from all over the world to mobilize to assist the king in disaster. Zhou Bao was so sad and angry that he spent huge sums of money to build the "Decisive Capital" special operations corps, preparing to go to Beijing to serve the king. Because the "Jushengdu" is stationed in the back building of the mansion, the people call it "the back building capital", and the history books are also recorded as "the back building capital". Therefore, this book also follows the crowd and is uniformly called "the back building capital" in the following text. Houloudu".
"Houtoudu" has devoted a lot of effort and money to Zhou Bao, making it the elite among the elite and the ace among aces.
Just when Zhou Bao was sharpening his skills and wanted to attack the capital and make contributions, he received an invitation from Gao Pian to jointly send troops.
Zhou Bao and Gao Pian are brothers. They have similar origins. They are both from the "N generation of generals". Their ancestors have been famous generals in the Tang Dynasty for several generations. They have been awarded many kings and marquises. They are similar in age and they live together in a military compound. I grew up as a child, classmate, and friend. When I was young, we both served in the Forbidden Army. They were good colleagues and close buddies.
I thought I could fight the national crisis hand in hand with Gao Pian, but I didn't expect that this was the Hongmen Banquet arranged by Gao Pian. He wanted to deceive Zhou Bao into killing him and annex Zhen Haijun. Fortunately, Zhou Bao discovered it in time and saved him from death. A complete break.
After failing to deceive and kill Zhou Bao, Gao Pian repeated his old tricks and tried to deceive and kill Dong Chang, the main force of the "Eight Capitals of Hangzhou" - "Stone Mirror Capital". Under the reminder of his general Qian Liu, Dong Chang was also spared from the murderous hands.
Although Gao Pian failed to cause substantial damage to Zhen Haijun, Zhou Bao did not dare to leave King Zhen Qin because of this.
Zhou Baokong had no outlet for his sincere heart to serve the country. He sat back and watched Huang Chao poisoning Chang'an. He was depressed. He could only use wine and feasting to relieve the depression in his chest. From then on, he stopped caring about political affairs and spent his days drinking, sensual and sensual... In short, he was willing to fall. .
If the Zhenhai War Zone is regarded as an independent kingdom, then Zhou Bao is the foolish king who ignores government affairs and is dissolute and immoral. The "Houloudu" is the arrogant and arrogant imperial army who is incapable of fending off enemies and disturbing the people. The "Eight Capitals of Hangzhou" It is the warlord of the feudal town who separatist power. Zhenhai Zhou Bao will preview a pocket version of "The Destruction of the Empire".
Zhou Bao entrusted the command of the "Back Tower City" to "Prince" Zhou Yu. The young master grew up in a deep house compound since he was a child. He was pampered, weak and incompetent, and could not control the arrogant and uncontrollable "Back Tower City", which led to this The arrogant soldiers gradually lost control.
Even so, military power cannot be handed over to outsiders. Zhou Bao only believes in his own son.
In addition, Zhou Bao also appointed his son-in-law Yang Maoshi as the governor of Suzhou. There is heaven, there are Suzhou and Hangzhou. Yang Maoshi imposed excessive taxes on Suzhou, causing public resentment. Tian Lingzi sent Zhao Zai to replace Yang Maoshi, but Weng and his son-in-law refused to obey the decree and refused to accept Zhao Zai. Later, Li You proclaimed himself emperor and ordered the world to hunt down Tian Jian's party, so Zhou Bao followed the "edict" to kill Zhao Zai.
Zhou Bao was completely blackened.
Finally, general Zhang Yu launched a rebellion and captured Changzhou. Zhou Bao sent Ding Congshi to quell the rebellion, but Zhang Yu was defeated and fled, defecting to Hailing and attached himself to Hailing town general Gao Ba (Gao Pian's general). Ding Congshi took advantage of the situation and occupied Changzhou.
At this time, Zhou Bao had lost control of the army, and the "emperor" faced the dilemma of "warlord separatism". Ding Cong, who occupied Changzhou, was only a minor player, and could only pale into insignificance compared with Dong Chang, the "Stone Mirror Capital".
Dong Chang blatantly expelled the imperial officials, appointed himself the governor of Hangzhou, and separatized the Hangzhou area. Later, he annexed the famous bandit Liu Hanhong, and was promoted to "Jiedushi of the Yisheng Army", almost on an equal footing with Zhou Bao.
Dong Chang appointed Qian Liu as the governor of Hangzhou, but Zhou Bao was forced to accept it and adopt a policy of appeasement.
Zhou Bao felt that his majesty and control were gradually declining, but instead of waking up and correcting his mistakes in time, he drifted further and further down the wrong path.
Zhou Bao doubly trusted his personal guards in the "Houtou Capital", and built an outer city of more than 20 miles and built an official residence. He believed that Runzhou (the location of the town's naval headquarters) would be impregnable from now on, and he could sit back and relax.
The heavy labor made the people miserable, and the unfair supply of military supplies also made the officers and soldiers of other armies complain. Zhou Bao's situation became even more dangerous.
At a banquet, the staff worriedly told Zhou Bao that the army was full of complaints and the commander-in-chief could not just sit idly by.
Zhou Bao glared, "Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed without mercy!"
Superstitious violence is the critical point for all foolish kings and handsome men.
One of the aides, Xue Lang, secretly revealed this to his good friend, the general Liu Hao, meaning that he should restrain his subordinates and avoid hitting the gun. Marshal Zhou wanted to catch a model and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
Don't be afraid of not doing good things, just be afraid of not having good people.
Xue Lang's original intention was to let Liu Hao behave with his tail between his legs to avoid accidents. But it was misunderstood and misunderstood.
Liu Hao was filled with grief and anger, saying that we tried our best to assist the commander, but we did not get the trust we deserved. We lived in fear all the time, walking on thin ice, fearing that something would happen to us because of the smallest thing. Now, I am afraid that we have no choice but to let go. If you don't break out in silence, you will perish in silence!
That night, Zhou Bao was very drunk and was sleeping soundly. Liu Hao led his troops to suddenly launch a mutiny and set fire to Zhou Bao's official residence.
Zhou Bao was half awake, so he jumped up from the bed, ran barefoot to the back door of the mansion, and called his "back buildings" to come to the rescue of King Qin.
However, Zhou Bao was extremely surprised to find that "Houtoudu" was also involved in the rebellion.
At this time, the city was filled with flames, as bright as day, and the sound of weapons clashing and killing resounded through the sky. Zhou Bao looked up to the sky and sighed, "Anyone who listens to my orders is my general; otherwise, he is a bandit! Our navy has a vast territory, where can't we find a place to stay? Alas -"
Zhou Bao led his family to flee Changzhou on foot and took refuge with his old subordinate Ding Congshi.
Liu Hao hunted and killed Zhou Bao's staff in Runzhou City and took Zhou Bao's mountains of treasures for himself.
Zhou Bao arrived in Changzhou and summoned the "Houtou Capital" in an attempt to revive the army. However, not a single soldier from the "Houtou Capital" came.
At the end of the same year, Zhou Bao died of illness in Hangzhou at the age of seventy-four.
When Zhou Bao was young, he was also a ruthless man like Xiahou Dun. At that time, one of the items in the martial arts examination was "hitting the felt immediately". An accident occurred during the competition. One of Zhou Bao's eyes was hooked out by an iron hook. Zhou Bao then swallowed the eyeball protruding out of the orbit, and then continued to hit the felt. Finally got the first place result.
The emperor gave him a wooden fake eyeball. It is said that this wooden eyeball can be fake and real. I don't know what it did.
One morning, Zhou Bao accidentally dropped his wooden eyes into the basin while washing, and the concubine beside him burst into laughter. Zhou Bao was furious and had him killed. Like Li Keyong, he is most afraid of others making fun of his eyes.
When Zhou Bao encountered a mutiny and fled to Changzhou in embarrassment, he received a gift from his old friend Gao Pian. At that moment, Zhou Bao was in shock and lost his mind. Holding the gift from his old friend in his hand, he was moved to tears. It was true that a friend in need was a friend indeed.
When I opened the package, I found a bag of glutinous rice flour inside. It turned out that Gao Pian was insinuating that he turned into glutinous rice flour, which was a sarcastic +1.
There was also a letter attached, which said, "Send you a song "Liangliang"", sarcasm +2.
"I sent you thousands of miles away, you deserve it..." Sarcasm +3, critical hit.
Zhou Bao threw the package to the ground angrily, raised his halberd and pointed it in the direction of Yangzhou, and cursed angrily: "Gao Pian, you have Lu Yongzhi. We still can't decide who will be worse off in the future, just keep an eye on it!"
