Xinzheng!
Since the ancient Zheng Kingdom built the city here, there has never been such a prosperous moment, and there have never been so many princes coming here to make alliances.
Qi Gong Lu Lu, Ying Hou Luosi, Lu Hou Lu Chan, Anyang Hou Hanlin, Huaiyin Hou Han Feng, Lanling Hou Xiao Chi, and Xinzheng Hou Zhang Chen are all famous families that have been famous a hundred years ago.
There are also the princes and kings of the Liu family and the two thousand stone county guards. The last time the princes of Shandong gathered together was when the Qin Dynasty was destroyed.
"Tianzi Dan's sins are serious and his morals are corrupt. Heaven has begun to despise him. We follow the guidance of Emperor Su and according to the people's hearts in the world, we must attack him."
Los took out a document, raised it high, and said loudly to everyone: "O princes and kings from all over the world, all the soldiers in the world, the righteous soldiers who resist tyranny, those who do not want to be enslaved like flies and dogs, People who are unwilling to obey a tyrant.
We gather here, raise your swords, put on your armor, and we will swear an oath together.
This is Tianzi Dan's crime and oath. Please let me read it in front of you and spread it throughout the world. "
Los's words reminded people of the old Zhou Wu King Mengjin's alliance. These words were almost exactly the same. His brain began to heat up and the blood in his body was flowing turbulently. This was an unprecedented event since the founding of the Han Dynasty. Everyone involved was in agreement. With honor, the radiance of ideals bloomed on everyone's faces, and they shouted in unison loudly: "Please!"
Ross then walked up to the high platform and said in a voice that everyone could hear: "How serious Liu Dan's sin is.
He did not listen to the advice of sages and important ministers, but appointed treacherous villains, entrusted them with great political power, bestowed them with great blessings, and allowed them to cause trouble to the country and bring disaster to the people, so that refugees spread all over the land.
well.
This is wrong!
He indulged cunning subordinates, appointed harsh officials, increased the penalties of Han law, and relaxed the punishment of unjust cases, causing injustice to spread. Those who did not steal entered the prison, and those who did not kill died in prison. Is it bearable to call the jailer noble?
He had no benevolent mentality, treated the people cruelly, constantly imposed corvee services, and forcibly took away the people's money to satisfy his own selfish desires.
As a result, merchants all over the world went bankrupt, old men lost their sons and struggled to survive in the cold wind, young children lost their fathers and died crying for food, women lost their husbands and were crying hard, and people dragged their exhausted bodies to death on the roadside. The body cannot be restrained either.
His high platform is as high as ninety-nine stories, and his palaces have tens of millions of rooms. Alas, King Zhou of Shang was not like this.
What a tragedy this is.
Now we respect God's instructions, carry out God's punishment on Liu Dan, and tell him the dissatisfaction and anger of the people in the world.
We fought together, crossing Luoyang, entering Hangu, crossing Nanyang, entering Wuguan, crossing Jinzhong, and crossing the river.
Finally, he entered Guanzhong and carried out the great mission of extermination.
All of you, please work hard.
If we don’t work hard, the world will not be stable. What should we say when we offer sacrifices to our ancestors?
If we don't work hard, we will be killed, and future generations will be punished by God.
Tell everyone in the world to rise up to resist the tyranny of a single man, defend the country of the Han Dynasty, and recreate the prosperous age of our ancestors. "
Los's voice stopped, but the voice that spread into the distance did not stop. Until people in the farthest distance heard these words, countless voices rang out: "Follow the teachings of God and move forward with all your strength!"
…
Chang'an.
The news of the oath of the Kanto princes reached here, and the entire capital pressed the pause button in an instant. Countless people couldn't imagine it and couldn't believe that this happened.
Rebel against the emperor!
Kill the lonely man!
Fengtian Jingnan!
These words spread to Chang'an, and then made countless people exclaim, Tang Fang Jie, King Wu defeated Zhou, those are all too long ago, so long ago that they are like myths.
Killing the violent Qin Dynasty is more like revenge.
This time, it was the real top nobleman of the Han Dynasty who openly confronted the emperor!
But the Chang'an nobles did not understand why the Guandong princes dared to do this.
Because of the continuous favors from the imperial court, it is no longer the case a hundred years ago that there are no great princes and kings across counties.
The large kingdoms of the princes only have one county, and the small ones don't even have one county. They have no ability to resist the imperial court!
No matter how loud the slogans are, no matter how righteous the actions are, in the end it will all come down to strength.
Above the court.
Liu Dan did not panic at all, and even sneered at the ministers and said: "They are just some clowns. What I am not afraid of the most is war. Besides, how powerful the imperial court is, how can they imagine it?"
With an edict from me, I can enable the governors of various places to put down the rebellion of these princes. "
The courtiers quite agree with these words. Normally, there is a three-way check and balance in the county. Unless the county guards follow the princes and princes and kings to rebel, it will be difficult to achieve success.
Then a piece of news came through.
"Your Majesty, nearly 70% of the princes, princes, kings, and county guards of the five major governors of Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, and Jizhou rebelled. They gathered under the command of the eight princes, killed those loyal ministers, and enslaved the refugees. An army of 500,000 people was formed and came to Guanzhong with great momentum."
"boom!"
First there was silence for a moment, and then the whole roof of the palace was shaken up by the sound. It was normal for the Founder Faction and the princes and kings to rebel. Why did the county guards get involved?
"Half a million!"
Liu Dan's brain circuit was directly focused on the number of soldiers, and he roared: "Where did they get so many soldiers from?"
When he turned around, Liu Dan felt his eyes darken. As soon as he came to the military, his IQ came back.
With a little calculation, I can guess that the situation in Guandong is probably extremely bad. Otherwise, the princes of Guandong would not be able to coerce so many refugees. With an army of 500,000, the number of refugees in Guandong is estimated to be more than one million.
The ministers in the palace also thought of this. The reason why the governors of Guandong can stand together with the princes, kings and princes must be because the situation in Guandong is out of control.
A strong chill rose in everyone's vests, thinking of the edict issued by the emperor. What would be the consequences of such a situation?
Liu Dan forcibly suppressed the chill in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Why are you panicking?
In the past, Emperor Gao fought with Xiang Yu in Xingyang for several years, but Xiang Yu's bravery was blocked. As long as I hold Hulao and the important town of Xingyang, I can completely block the Kwantung rebels.
I am still separated by mountains and rivers in the land of Luoyang. Behind Luoyang there is the stronghold of Weihan. There are countless Han clan clansmen in the land of Nanyang. The great rivers and natural dangers are also insurmountable.
There are millions of people in Guanzhong, tens of thousands of armored soldiers, and tens of thousands of cavalry. Give me time to mobilize the troops. I want the rebels in Guandong to know what cruelty is!
What is the majesty of the emperor? It is inviolable!
Immediately issued an order to recruit the good families in Guanzhong, Hexi, Bashu and other places, and recall the border troops.
Sir Nong, I need a lot of military supplies, and you can prepare them.
Dear friends, the princes of Guandong have rebelled. This is an evil thing that has never happened since the founding of the dynasty.
I believe that you are all loyal to me and have put down the rebellion of the princes. I will put them all to death and distribute their princes and kingdoms to my loyal ministers.
Dear friends, do you understand? "
Typical general tactics, but very effective. Liu Dan's various behaviors are indeed that of a single man, but before he can reach the end and reach the point of betrayal and separation, the heroes and princes can no longer stand such an emperor.
This also led to Liu Dan still having the strength to resist on the surface, and the people of the court were still united.
…
"Report!
Your Majesty, the Protectorate of the Western Regions Wushuang Hou Luoshi, Wusun King Liuba, and Dawan Queen Mother Mishan led the army of the Protectorate of the Western Regions into Hexi to respond to the rebellion of the Kanto rebels!
The Western Region Allied Forces issued a message asking Your Majesty to..."
Liu Danhan said in a cold voice: "What do you want me to do?"
"Let your majesty...surrender!
Marquis Wushuang said that as long as His Majesty surrenders, even if it costs his life, he will save His Majesty's life! "
Liu Dan shook his body and roared in a low voice: "I will support him infinitely in exploring the Western Region. I will relieve him of all worries. I will give him the greatest convenience of the Protectorate of the Western Region and the Wushuang Kingdom. I will obey him." I did not replace King Wusun and King Dayuandong with my opinion, and I also married my most beloved sister to him. Is this how he repays me?"
"A single man, everyone will find him and kill him!"
Luo Shi recalled how pitiful he felt when his wife cried, but he still said firmly: "I am a citizen of Zhuxia first, and then a minister of the Han Dynasty.
Your Majesty has been very kind to me, and I should have died to repay him.
But your majesty is no longer the majesty he once was. He has become a great harm to the world. If he is allowed to continue like this, it will be irresponsible to the Han Dynasty and the ancestral temple.
My dear, it is absolutely impossible for your Majesty to defeat the coalition of princes. Going there for your husband is the only possibility to save your Majesty's life.
This time heading east, if His Majesty is willing to surrender, get rid of the title of emperor, come to the Western Regions to be a king or a marquis, and risk everything for his husband, he can still do it. "
Putting aside these thoughts, Luo Shi led the army and continued eastward. Along the way, the armies of the four counties in Hexi joined him, and they did not encounter much resistance at all.
The four counties in Hexi have undertaken a large number of military services in recent years. If the number of people was not small, the conflicts would not be so intense. They would have become as intense as those in Guandong.
Moreover, the connection between the four counties in Hexi and the Wushuang Kingdom is very close.
"Your Majesty, someone in the Liaodong Protector's Mansion has betrayed and a civil war has broken out, making it impossible for the king to serve him!"
"..."
"Your Majesty, civil strife broke out in Nanyang County, and the clansmen are confronting each other!"
One after another bad news spread to Chang'an, making everyone feel the changes. How could the world be full of traitors in such a short period of time?
"Hulao surrenders without a fight!"
Heavy news has arrived!
————
The outbreak of the Jingnan War was so sudden, but so reasonable. In almost ten months, the world changed its banner. This sudden and short war had a cruel economic blow to the Han Dynasty. , the economy, which was already on the verge of collapse, completely collapsed.
But the author must give this war a very high evaluation. Under the rule of Emperor Han, the economy of the Han Dynasty would collapse if it lasted for at most ten years. Although the war launched by the Jingnan princes destroyed the economy of the Han Dynasty, , but this made the trauma suffered by the Han Dynasty not fatal enough, and the world's population was still within the safety line, and production could quickly begin to resume.
The Jingnan princes are rare in history. After a hundred years of dynasty development, a group of nobles has not fallen and still maintains strong vitality. It is an extremely rare phenomenon in the implementation of the feudal system in the world. It has always been studied by historians. One of the key points. ——"The Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
