The guard eunuch sent by Emperor Li Zeng,
Eunuchs are greedy and greedy for money. Gold, silver, jewelry, good land and beautiful houses are all tempting to them, but they are the least willing to rebel.
It's not that he has any great insights, nor that his relationship with Zhu Houzhao is extremely deep.
There really was no reason for him to be like this.
The little king on the frontier fought against the orthodoxy of the imperial court, and there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides.
To take such a big risk, there must be enough returns.
The group of people who rebelled with King Anhua were originally either unknown people or had committed capital crimes, so their benefits were to survive and become heroes in the founding of the country.
But what can he have as a eunuch?
He is already a guarding eunuch on the defensive side. It is incredible to be the great eunuch who is responsible for the rituals. How big a difference can it make?
To be disrespectful, he represents the emperor in the local area and is the biggest. Compared with the eunuch who is the ceremonial supervisor and the eunuch, it is hard to say who is more comfortable.
Are you working hard to rebel just for this?
Therefore, Li Zeng had settled his account clearly, and he would not follow King Anhua who lived in Ningxia.
At the banquet, after being scolded by him, some people began to be in a dilemma.
King Anhua became even more angry, "Someone, drag this eunuch out and chop down the sacrificial flag!"
Li Zeng's blood surged and he cursed loudly: "King Anhua, you have done such a treasonous and unethical thing today, have you thought about the consequences in the future? Our family is the eunuch sent by the emperor to guard Ningxia. If you kill our family, It means that there is no turning back when the bow is fired, and there is no way out from now on!"
"What, are you afraid?" King Anhua had some expectation in his eyes.
"Bah! It's you who should be afraid!"
"Ouch! Kill him for me!"
The two soldiers who immediately stepped forward pinched Li Zeng, one on the left and the other on the right, and then dragged him outside.
"Traitor! Rebel! Rebel..."
Jiang Han didn't expect that King Anhua would kill someone on the spot. He thought he was going to suffer today, but a man without eggs had such integrity, how could he lag behind, "An Ni! You are really so cruel, you want to kill those who are here today?" Kill everyone?!"
"Those who obey me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. Mr. Jiang, I hope you are a person who appreciates promotion!"
"Absurd! As a minister, you rebelled. This is disloyal. You are depriving yourself of the royal family but raising troops. This is unrighteous. As a descendant of the Zhu family, you want to destroy the inheritance of your ancestors. This is unfilial. If you don't agree with each other, you will be punished. It is unkind to go on a killing spree! How can such an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust person be the emperor? Even if you kill us today, we are just taking the first step, and sooner or later you will be dead!"
"That's right!" Deputy Commander-in-Chief Yang Ying also followed up and scolded him, and said remorsefully: "In the past, I saw An Ni doing things that exceeded the rules. I just wanted to calm things down and just sit back and look at the disrespect. I never thought that you, an unfaithful and unfilial person, would be so disrespectful. You harbor such evil intentions! Your Majesty, I cannot help you!"
King Anhua was irritated. He did not expect that after he broke the cup and became a leader, several important high-ranking officials would not submit to him. But the matter had come to this, and he had no choice.
"Come here! Arrest them all for me!"
Li Zeng is an old eunuch who has no power to restrain a chicken, but Jiang Han and Yang Ying are not. They have been on the battlefield for a long time and have strength. Although they are deeply trapped in the enemy camp, they will not be captured without mercy.
Especially Jiang Han, he first pretended not to resist. The moment the soldier touched him, he raised his whole body and elbowed the person on the right. He grabbed the knife and then slashed to the left.
In an instant, blood splattered on the spot.
And his mind was extremely clear. At this moment, the only way to escape was by holding King Anhua hostage.
So he stepped on the table with one foot and flew up, "An Ni, accept your fate!"
It really happened in the blink of an eye.
When Yang Ying on the other side saw that the generals had moved, he couldn't make a sneak attack because the soldiers would definitely be on guard, so he had to take action in advance and beat back a few people with his bare hands. Then he pulled away and shouted: "An Ni is rebelling! Everyone gets it." And punish him! All the officers and soldiers of Ningxia Town, together with the Commander-in-Chief, captured this thief and will be rewarded for their meritorious service!"
"My lord, be careful!" Meng Bin was extremely anxious.
These two low-ranking counselors were also half-full and half-full. They did everything in a big-picture manner without any details. They did not even consider that there would be such a problem.
When King Anhua saw Jiang Han coming with a knife, he was so frightened that his legs became weak and he almost peed. In desperation, he immediately turned around and ran away, shouting in embarrassment: "Ah! Quick! Quick! Take down this beast!" "
There was chaos in the hall,
Jiang Han was actually close to him when he swung his sword, but it was only a few dozen centimeters shorter. Moreover, King Anhua ran very fast, as if he had used up all his strength to escape, and rushed into his own soldiers at once, but he ran too fast. In a hurry, he accidentally fell down after bumping into someone.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
Sun and Meng shouted, and immediately ran over to help King Anhua up.
"What a pity, we almost killed this traitor!" Jiang Han grunted, his face full of unwillingness.
"Ah!" King Anhua on the opposite side also felt how embarrassed he was just now, and he was so angry that he had brain congestion, and ordered, somewhat irrationally, "Go! Kill him for me!"
Jiang Han knew that it was too late to pursue him anymore, and there were people surrounding him.
"Yang Ying! Come closer, let's kill him!"
"good!"
But in fact, they themselves also knew that if they missed the only opportunity just now, it would be impossible to survive today.
So there is a record as follows: On August 30th of the fourth year of Zhengde, the king of Anhua County in Qingfu, Ningxia, set up a trap to rebel. He bought wine and summoned Han Ying and others to a banquet. During the banquet, Han Ying stood up in self-defense, cursed angrily, and was killed.
…
…
Shuofang Town.
When Liu Yuexian arrived according to Zhang Cong's order, Wang Shouren had already assembled his army and set off.
The news the emperor gave him was correct, and now that the imperial envoy has arrived, the matter is even more certain.
Although he had no orders to mobilize the soldiers and horses from Shuofang Town to Ningxia Town, the emperor's previous greeting actually gave him room to act, but he was still suspected if he stood still.
So this is nothing, it's just that he can't figure it out.
A small prince of Anhua County dared to raise an army to rebel... He was obviously surrounded by powerful enemies, with Shuofang to the north, Guyuan, the governor's residence of Shaanxi Province, to the west, Xi'an to the south, and Yulin Town to the northeast.
Which one looks like an easy place to hit? Xi'an is located in Guanzhong, and it seems that the troops and horses are not as good as those in other directions, but you can try to explore the terrain.
This is not to mention Pinglupp Zhou Shangwen who was stationed in the Hexi Corridor.
You said that if you really can't do it, escaping from the Central Plains is also a way, but this is obviously a turtle in the urn.
"I have never heard of this King Anhua before. What kind of person is he and what does he think?" Wang Shouren really couldn't figure it out.
So I asked the two commanders I brought out, namely Qiu Yue and Han Twelve Lang.
They both shook their heads, "Maybe there are some special arrangements."
In fact, the rebellion of King Anhua in history did not achieve much fame.
It took a total of eighteen days before and after, when Emperor Zhengde received the news, Qiu Yue, then a guerrilla general, had already put down the rebellion.
And the process was uneventful.
It was Qiu Yue who deceived the rebels in the town, saying that Lingzhou North Ferry was more important and it was best to guard there to prevent the imperial army from attacking.
The rebels believed it.
Then Qiu Yue led about a hundred people to the palace.
Then he falsely conveyed the order of King Anhua to let the rebels come back. As long as there was no one to guard the ferry, the officers and soldiers of Lingzhou Institute would come over. This was Qiu Yue's idea.
As a result, on their way back to the division, the rebels heard that King Anhua had been killed, and then dispersed.
That's it.
This has been the case in history. If the current court knew in advance and took precautions, the situation of the rebels along the way would become even more critical, so critical that Wang Shouren could not see their way out.
Of course, if you don’t understand, you still don’t understand, so you have to suppress the rebellion when it’s time to suppress it.
On August 31, the day after the incident, Wang Shouren, who had taken early action, had already garrisoned Lingzhou. There was a thousand households in Lingzhou, and he was shocked at first, because he was the number one rebel here. However, when he saw Wang Shouren, the governor of Hetao, arriving with two generals, Qiu Yue and Han Twelve Lang, his sense of security was suddenly revealed.
At the same time, Wang Shouren also heard from Liu Yuexian that Zhang Cong had gone to Guyuan Mansion.
He had nothing to say about this decision. He moved in two directions, he went to Guyuan Prefecture, and his subordinates went to Shuofang. He heard that he was just a magistrate, and he was calm enough at the critical moment and his mind was not messed up...
The emperor's selection and employment of people were as accurate as ever.
As for the governor of Shaanxi, Wang Tingxiang Wang Shouren knew about it, and he was also a very understanding person. He must have taken action after knowing the situation.
Basically, King Anhua could not even leave the town.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
So perhaps it was some kind of coincidence that Zhang Cong, Wang Tingxiang, and Wang Shouren, by chance, met in one place—Lingzhou City, where Lingzhou is located!
Based on Zhu Houzhao's historical memory, he knew two of them, but in fact Wang Tingxiang was also a ruthless person whose name was recorded in history.
On the 27th, Zhang Cong arrived in Guyuan first.
Then Wang Tingxiang responded quickly and led eight thousand soldiers and horses towards Lingzhou.
Everyone has the same vision. The military significance here is indeed great.
It's just that his movements were not as fast as Wang Shouren's. He arrived on September 1st.
Shi Yong found it inexplicable that there were originally only three thousand people here, but the number suddenly increased to 20,000, and the whole city was packed to the brim.
When Wang Tingxiang saw this, he immediately discussed with Wang Shouren, "Soldiers are more valuable than speed, so why not cross the river immediately?"
How could Wang Shouren not understand, "Yesterday, we ordered people to cut down trees and build rafts. Wang Zhongcheng, do you understand this situation? How could King Anhua think of rebellion? Or is there something special about Ningxia Town?"
Zhang Cong said first, "I'm afraid he hates Xiaguan very much. Didn't the appeal say that Xiaguan was falsely preaching the imperial edict in the town and acting arrogantly? He probably wanted to kill Xiaguan and then be quick."
"You'll find out when you beat him."
Wang Tingxiang said that labor and management would not know what the rebels thought, and why should they think so much? If the army went over and destroyed the rebels, there would be no problem.
