New Story of Lv Bu

At the beginning of June of this year, the Kwantung Allied Forces returned to the base areas one after another, and the clamoring for more than a year of the Dong Dong alliance ended in this way. Although they were defeated by Dong Xiangguo's Northwest Army in both wars, so that nothing was achieved, the princes of Sixteen Towns were not without gain. At least, the territory they controlled now truly belonged to them.

Without the permission of the emperor and the imperial court, the princes expropriated property and manpower from their respective states and counties, arbitrarily set up names and levied taxes, and formed an army. In essence, they have become a warlord of the separatist side. Compared with Dong Xiangguo's Xiliang Army, they are only a little weaker.

The heroes gradually rose, and the full-scale separatism, autonomy, and annexation within the Han Empire began.

The current Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, whose name is Junlang, is the descendant of Liu Yu, the former King of Lu Gong. During the Yuanhe reign of Emperor Zhang, the branch of Liu Yu moved to Feng Jingling. At this point, the branches and leaves were opened in Jingling, and a large clan was gradually formed.

Because Liu Yan came from a clan, his path to advancement was naturally smooth, much faster than the ordinary Han clan. At a young age, he was appointed as a doctor. Langzhong is an official name, commonly known as "lang". Its responsibilities are: in charge of the door, the car and riding; it is the guard inside, and the outside is fighting. In addition, Shangshutai set up a documentary for the secretary of the Langzhong. It began in the Warring States Period, and Qin and Han Dynasties were due to it.

There are two ways to choose a doctor, one is to take an exam, and the other is to recommend it too often. "Everyone has an exam at one year old, and he can master one art or more to make up for the lack of literature; his senior brother can be a doctor, who is a member of Taichang." Liu Yan came from the clan, and he should be recommended by Taichang as usual. Soon after Liu Yan's doctor worked, his teacher Zhu Tian passed away, and he left his job to keep his filial piety for the teacher.

In this dynasty, this is one of the ways to gain a big name, and it is also the most effective way. While observing his filial piety, Liu Yan was teaching and accepting apprentices in Yangcheng Mountain, and he had a good reputation with many celebrities. Subsequently, he was promoted to be a Xianliang Founder, and Situ Mansion requisitioned him. Served successively as Luoyang Order, Jizhou Governor, Nanyang Prefect, Zongzheng, Taichang and other officials.

In the fifth year of Zhongping, Liu Yan witnessed the chaos of the Lingdi dynasty and the decline of the royal family, so he suggested to the court: "The governor and the prefect bribes and buys officials, exploits the common people, and invites resignation. Those incorruptible central officials should be selected to serve as local prefectures and counties. Sir, so as to guard and stabilize the world." He himself asked to serve as the minister of the state, intending to avoid the chaos of the world.

At that time, the governor of Yizhou was frugal and amassed in Yizhou, and greed became a trend. Liu Yan, who originally wanted to take care of the state to avoid disaster, changed to the court to ask the court to be Yizhou pastor because he heard that Dong Fu said that Yizhou has the emperor's spirit. As a result, Liu Yan was used as an envoy to supervise the army and Yizhou Mu, was named a Yangcheng Hou, and ordered him to go to Yizhou to arrest Xi Jian and rectify the officials.

Because the road was blocked, Liu Yan temporarily stationed in the east boundary of Jingzhou. At this time, but Jian had been killed by the Yellow Turban thief Ma, but Ma Xiang, who had just become emperor for a few days, was defeated by the Yizhou army who was engaged in Jialong organization. Jia Long then welcomed Liu Yan into Yizhou and decided to rule in Mianzhu. After Liu Yan took office, he appointed Jia Long as the school lieutenant and moved him to live in Mianzhu.

Jia Long is the representative of Yizhou's local tycoons, and he has the merits of supporting him. Liu Yan has just arrived in office and has no choice but to treat Jia Long. In order to win over the people of Yizhou, Liu Yan was lenient in politics and taxed very lightly. Gradually, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment and began to praise Liu Yanlai. As a state shepherd, this kind of harmonious political situation is already very good.

However, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan was not satisfied with this. In his heart, he had ambitions hidden in his heart. It was his lifelong wish to segregate Yizhou and become the king of Yizhou. Emperor Guangwu, as the clan, put down Bronze Horse and segregated Jizhou. After several wars, he finally settled the world and became the lord of ZTE. Why can't I, Liu Junlang?

When he first arrived in Yizhou, Liu Yan became obsessed with a young and beautiful widow, because she was so charming and witchcraft, Liu Yan was fascinated by her. As a clan and a great celebrity, Liu Yan was fascinated by Chen Wei's learning and witchcraft. These two specialties of the beautiful widow made Liu Yan so fascinated and intoxicated, almost to the point where she was inseparable from her.

This beautiful and charming widow is the mother of Zhang Lu, the chief of the "Five Dou Mi Dao" in Yizhou. As soon as the pillow breeze blows, Zhang Lu is appointed by Liu Yan as the Governor of Yi Sima, and goes to Hanzhong with other Sima Zhang Xiu to attack Hanzhong. Prefect Sugu. Of course, this appointment was not entirely motivated by the impulse to grind. To be precise, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan had ulterior motives.

Hanzhong, located in the northern part of Yizhou, is a geographically closed Yizhou in and out of Kanxi and Central Plains. It has always been a battleground for military strategists. Gaodi Liu Bang, the founding emperor of this dynasty, was named the king of Hanzhong by the overlord of Chu Xiang Yu. After ten years of gathering, he marched northward and competed with the overlord of Chu in the Central Plains and finally captured the world.

If you want to segregate Yizhou, you must acquire Hanzhong, so that you can attack and retreat and defend, and you will be invincible.

The order Zhang Lu received from Liu Yan was to obtain Hanzhong and isolate Yizhou from the Guanxi and Central Plains. Of course, there is a prerequisite for Liu Yan to support him, that is, to use his mother as a hostage in exchange for food and army. Zhang Lu accomplished this task brilliantly. He killed Su Gu, the prefect of Hanzhong, and cut off the head of his colleague Sima Zhangxiu. Since then, Hanzhong has become the capital of the "Five Dou Rice Sects" that combines politics and religion.

Zhang Lu killed the Han envoys, cut off traffic, and segregated Hanzhong. Naturally, these are all instructed by Liu Yan from Yizhou Mu.

The imperial court and Dong Xiangguo in Chang'an received a memorial from Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, saying that the Yizhou rice thief had cut off the road and the tax could not be sent. Please don't blame Yizhou. I, Liu Yan, also had no choice but to do nothing! At that time, the imperial court and Dong Xiangguo were busy dealing with the Kwantung Allied Forces, and they really didn't have the time and energy to deal with him, so they had no choice but to let them go.

After closing the gate of Yizhou, Liu Yan finally attacked the local tycoons of Yizhou. A dozen people including Yizhou tycoons Wang Wei and Li Quan were exterminated by the tribe. Qianwei Prefect Ren Qiwen was furious and found Jia Long. "Liu Yan is too shameless. As a clan of the Han clan, not only did he not send troops to defeat Dong Zhuo, but also attacked the tycoons of Yizhou. It is unbearable! I want to attack him, why don't you do it?" Like the king's will!" Jia Long started shooting the case.

At the same time as Ren Qi and Jia Long raised his troops, the court sent Situ Zhao Qian to lead his troops to the south, responding to the two, and preparing to attack Liu Yan from the north to the south. Unexpectedly, Liu Yan had been prepared long ago and suddenly raised troops and raided the barracks of Ren Qi and Jia Long, killing both of them. When Zhao Qian heard the news, he gave a long sigh and had to retreat back to Chang'an. At this point, the entire Yizhou finally fell into Liu Yan's hands.

During the great chaos in the Central Plains, tens of thousands of refugees in Nanyang and Sanfu entered Yizhou, and Liu Yan collected them all and called them "Dongzhou Soldiers." To be honest, the military discipline of the Dongzhou soldiers is not very good, but Liu Yanyi is the Great Wall, to see the "Xizhou soldiers" in the hands of the powerful local Yizhou. Since then, the "Eastern State Soldiers" and the "Western State Soldiers" have become a fire, and they can no longer tolerate them.

After that, Liu Yan built another ceremonial guard, a total of more than a thousand vehicles. The neighboring governor of Jingzhou, Liu Biao, said that Liu Yan “has a theory of suspecting a saint like Zixia in Xihe.” This sentence is an allusion, and you have to start with Zixia to understand the true meaning.

Bu Shang, whose name is Zixia, is forty-four years younger than Confucius, and he is a native of Weiguo. Zixia has always been famous for literature in the Confucian High School. After the death of Confucius, Zixia settled in Hexi and became Wei Wenhou's teacher and brought out a group of good students. Li Qi and Wu Qi were the most famous among them. Proficiency in political affairs and rewarding farming wars are all from Zixia's professor.

For Confucius, Zixia's greatest contribution is that he has cultivated a large number of disciples in high positions, who are the wings of Confucius. Among the Five Classics, the "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Book of Changes", "Chun Qiu", and "Zuo Zhuan" were all passed down by Zi Xia. Zixia is also good at music, and has a very high level of accomplishments in The Book of Music. Therefore, Zixia is regarded as the saint after the saint.

Liu Biao’s memorial is very euphemistic, meaning that Liu Yan taught in Yangcheng Mountain and was already known as a saint. This sentence is very meaningful, on the surface it is just a report based on the facts, but it seems that there is a compliment to Liu Yan in the secret. However, Liu Biao believed that the famous scholars gathered in the city of Chang'an, and he would not fail to see Pi Liyangqiu in this sentence.

Sure enough, the famous Confucians in Chang'an understood it, and the emperor ordered a thorough investigation and found that Liu Yan had three sons in the court of Chang'an, so he sent Liu Zhang, the third captain of Fengcha, to tell his father. Liu Yizhou also has two sons serving in the central government. Considering the safety of their lives and property, you should honestly be a Yizhou pastoralist.

Liu Yan kept his son because the king of Yizhou also needed an heir. Seeing that Liu Zhang never returned, Dong Xiangguo knew that Liu Yan had been fooled. In a furious situation, he sent Liu Yan’s other two sons, Zuo Zhonglang Liu Fan and Zhishu Yushi Liu to prison. However, in any case, Liu Yanyizhou's dream has finally come true, albeit at a great price.

In the past, Zhong Lang recommended Xu Rong to Dong Zhuo, who was from the same county and the former Jizhou governor, and Dong Zhuo appointed him the prefect of Liaodong County. After Gongsundu took office, he executed more than a hundred families of the richest family in the county in accordance with the law, and everyone in the county was shocked and fought. So he conquered Gaoguli to the east and attacked the Wuhuan tribe to the west.

He said to his trusted officials Liu Yi, Yang Yi, etc.: "The rule of the Han Dynasty is about to end, and I want to build a kingdom with you." So he divided a part of Liaodong County and set up Liaoxi County and Zhongliao County, each with a prefect. He also crossed the sea to occupy the counties in Donglai, set up Yingzhou, and appointed Yingzhou governor.

Gongsundu called himself Liaodonghou and Pingzhou pastoralist, and established the sacrificial temples of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Xiu, the emperor Guangwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty. When he entered and exited, he rode in a luan car used by the emperor, with a head stunned and guarded by a habayashi knight.

At this time, Jingzhou Mu Liubiao also calmed down the tycoons in Jingzhou and settled Jingzhou. In addition to the dozens of towns and princes who returned home, the Han family officially entered a state of separatism. The princes cross the state and counties, and they are united in vertical and horizontal directions. Today you beat me, tomorrow I beat you, and the next day you and I will jointly beat him, and make you sing before I appear on stage.

The troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty finally began.
