One Piece of Song Dynasty
Chapter 272 Death of Xiao Qian
The Xi people were originally an independent nation, originating in the late Han Dynasty, and were of the same race as the Khitan. After Yelu Abaoji, Taizu of the Liao Dynasty, established the Khitan Kingdom, various tribes of the Xi tribe gradually surrendered and became tributaries of the Liao Kingdom. Later, the Xi people intermarried with the Liao people for generations, and they all changed their surname to Xiao. Therefore, there were only two surnames in Liao: Yelu and Xiao.
As King Xi and the leader of the Xi people, Xiao Qian hoped to create a world of his own between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty. This is his dream, this is his goal. Even if he fails in the end, he will never regret it. Therefore, he ignored the edict sent by Jin Taizu.
In the spring of the fifth year of Xuanhe, a serious famine occurred in the Xi area. In order to survive, the Xi people began to flee one after another. Xiao Qian was training the army in Lulongling. When he heard about this, he felt that the situation was serious, so he decided to risk going out of the mountains and led his army south to search for food.
Xiao Qian's first attack target was Jingzhou. Jingzhou was a county under the jurisdiction of Jizhou. It had just returned to the Song Dynasty and was renamed Luanchuan County in the Song Dynasty. After Xiao Qian conquered Jingzhou, he looted all the food in the city and sent people to transport it to Lulongling.
When the news reached Yanjing, Wang Anzhong and Zhan Du were shocked and quickly reported it to the court. At this time, Pharmacist Guo was in Tokyo. Song Huizong ordered him to return to Yanjing quickly and organize the ever-victorious army to annihilate Xiao Qian to eliminate the threat of this remnant Liao force to the Yanshan area of the Song Dynasty.
After Guo Pharmacist returned to Yanjing, he immediately ordered Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren to lead troops each to Shimen Town and occupy the key passes there. Shimen Town is located at the foot of Lulong Ridge, not far from Xiao Qian's base. Pharmacist Guo wanted to cut off Xiao Qian's retreat first, and then fight him from the front.
Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren led the troops forward. They thought Xiao Qian's army and horses were still in Jingzhou, so they relaxed their vigilance. They did not expect that Xiao Qian had received the news and quickly returned to the army, setting up an ambush on the road southwest of Shimen Town. That evening, Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren were defeated by Xiao Qian and fled.
Xiao Qian took advantage of the victory and advanced, and soon captured Jizhou. His troops came to Yanjing City and looted everywhere. Xiao Qian's troops were very sharp and he threatened to cross the Yellow River and attack Bianjing of the Song Dynasty. For a time, the Song Dynasty court was very popular, and some ministers were even planning to abandon Yanjing. Tong Guan did not agree to abandon Yanjing. He wrote to Wang Anzhong, Zhan Du and Guo Yaoshi from Tokyo. Wang Anzhong then ordered Guo Yaoshi to personally lead the army to attack.
Medical Master Guo knew that Xiao Qian had always been very cunning, and if he wanted to deal with him, he would have to use surprise to win. Xiao Qian had a general named Yelu Aguzhe who was very greedy for money. Medicine Master Guo knew him, so he secretly sent someone to Lulongling and spent a lot of money to bribe him, so that he could provide information in time and find out Xiao Qian's movements. Cooperate inside and outside and look for opportunities to destroy Xiao Qian.
On this day, Pharmacist Guo learned that Xiao Qian had left Lulongling again and was operating in Yaopu Town. Pharmacist Guo decided to lead the main force to fight in person. Guo Pharmacist's troops were divided into two groups. One group was led by Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren, and continued to march toward Shimen Town along the main road, cutting off Xiao Qian's retreat. He led the other group through Hongzhuang and Xiaogang, quietly detouring from the west, and heading straight for Yaopu Town.
In the battle at Yaopu Town, Xiao Qian was caught off guard. Xiao Qian hurriedly retreated to Lulongling. When he reached Shimen Town, he was attacked again by Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren's troops. Xiao Qian threw away his helmet and armor and suffered heavy losses. He led the remaining defeated soldiers to flee hastily to Fengshan.
Pharmacist Guo decisively ordered the entire army to pursue them. The Ever Victorious Army took advantage of the victory and pursued them all the way across Lulong Ridge, and then launched a decisive battle with the remnants of Xiao Qian at Fengshan. More than half of Xiao Qian's army and horses were killed or wounded, and their families, vehicles and food were all captured by the Changsheng Army. More than people from the Xi, Bohai and Han armies surrendered to the Changsheng Army. At the same time, the victorious army also captured Taishi Alu alive and obtained several treasures such as the treasure inspection of Yelv Deguang Zun, Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, and the Khitan gold-painted seal.
The ever-victorious army won a complete victory and the morale of the army was greatly boosted. But Pharmacist Guo felt a little regretful because he let Xiao Qian escape. At the same time, Pharmacist Guo was also a little bit happy, because Aguzhe was not found either. He judged that it was probably Xiao Qian who had absconded with Aguzhe. As long as Aguzhe is by Xiao Qian's side, there is no need to worry about not being able to catch Xiao Qian.
This defeat can be said to have brought Xiao Qian's power back to before liberation overnight. From the first month of the fifth year of Xuanhe, when Xiao Qian proclaimed himself emperor at Jiangan Mountain and established the Daxi Empire with the support of the villagers and soldiers of the armed forces, to this disastrous defeat it was only A few months later, Daxi Kingdom suffered a devastating blow.
Seeing that the army was defeated and the situation was over, Xiao Qian had no choice but to flee in embarrassment with a few of his close associates. He must have never imagined that the person who ended his life was neither Yaoshi Guo nor the Jin man, but his cronies.
Xiao Qian, his general Yelu Aguzhe, his nephew Yishi Bajin, his slave Bai Dige and others broke through the encirclement and hid in the homes of the Xi people. Xiao Qian was very sad about the defeat of Xi Jun, but he still refused to give up. He planned to endure hardships, hide his strength and bide his time, in order to make a comeback. However, he didn't know that his cronies were already desperate for the future, and death was approaching him step by step.
On August , Yelu Aguzhe, Yoshi Bajin and Bai Dige plotted and took advantage of Xiao Qian's unpreparedness to attack and kill him. A generation of heroes ended their tragic lives in this way.
Xiao Qian was not the first to die at the hands of his relatives or close associates, and certainly not the last. Such a death must be a death without peace of mind.
Xiao Qian established the only Xi Kingdom in the history of the Xi people and became the only emperor in the history of the Xi people. Although the founding of the country was short-lived and could even be said to be short-lived, history will not forget him.
Xiao Qian's death relieved a major military threat to the Song Dynasty. Xiao Qian's head was later presented to the Song army and passed to Hejian Mansion. Zhan Du, the prefect of Hejian Prefecture, sent someone to escort him to the capital and submit it to the court.
Xiao Qian's wife was named Agu. When she heard the news of her husband's death, she immediately committed suicide and died for her country. Afterwards, the remnants of the Xi army, under the leadership of Jinchen Agu, moved to fight in the Sage Mountain area. They were finally defeated by Jin Qianhu Xiao Wang's slaves and Jin General Tuniu. Jinchen Agu was captured, and the rest surrendered. The Xi Kingdom was completely defeated. The curtain has come to an end.
In September of the fifth year of Xuanhe, Jin Taizu was grandly buried on the west side of the Shangjing Palace in the Kingdom of Jin. After that, Guolun Bo Jilie Wanyan Gao, Yun Wang Wanyan Ang, Zong Jun, and Zong Qian led their relatives to ask Wu Qimai to succeed him, but Wu Qimai refused to agree, "he insisted on asking, but he refused." So Zongqian led his brothers to "cover their bodies in ocher robes and put them in Xi's arms" and repeatedly asked Wu Qimai to succeed him. Only then did Wu Qimai agree to ascend the throne. In fact, these are all acting. It's not that Wu Qimai doesn't want to succeed, nor is Zong Qian and others forcing Wu Qimai to take the throne. This is just a trick that the new emperor has to perform before he ascends the throne. Then, Wu begged for sacrifices to heaven and earth, granted amnesty to China and foreign countries, and changed the seventh year of Tianfu to the first year of Tianhui, which was named Taizong of Jin Dynasty.
