Shixiong's Rebellion
But the military chaos in Shu will not be pacified with the death of Meng Chang, the spiritual leader. This matter was started by Wang Quanbin and others, and whoever commits the evil will be dealt with. Of course, they still have to pacify the chaos in Shu.
What kind of person is Quan Shixiong? Before he was honored to become a new hope for Shu soldiers and Shu people, there was only one record of him: from Chengdu; an official position: the governor of Wenzhou, Later Shu. There is also a comment summarizing his first half of his life: Wei Hui. But why Wei Hui was not mentioned at all.
When the angry Shu soldiers arrived near Mianzhou, they finally couldn't bear it anymore. They killed the escort officials, occupied Mianzhou, and revolted, they found that there was no prestigious person in their team. They urgently needed someone to guide the way forward and lead them to attack cities and plunder the land, and urgently needed someone to preside over the spoils. To put it bluntly, they urgently needed a leader. So they thought of the whole army.
All Shixiong was actually just a so-called man. He followed Zhao Kuangyin's call, set out from his base, went to Bianliang to see his new master, and made a soy sauce bottle (Zhao Kuangyin's reward was not ordinary generous). He was passing by Mianzhou. But he didn't expect that his reputation was so great that everyone would like to return, and the soldiers of the riots all recommended him as the boss.
Quan Shixiong didn't want to stand out. He knew the truth about success, kings and defeats, and he had already surrendered. How much chance of winning will he have to fight again? And he had no reason to fight back. Shu is now in chaos, but this is just a redistribution of interests between foreign emerging aristocrats and old aristocrats. Quan Shixiong was not robbed yet, and his family was not harassed. So his first reaction was to escape, not wanting to be held hostage as a leader. He put on civil uniforms and hid in civil servants. Unfortunately, he did not hide well, and the gang of soldiers were more eager to be handsome than Liu Bei, so he found him from the remote thatched cottage. Forced pushed him to the position of commander.
Quan Shixiong was helpless, and at this time he could not help himself. But he still had the idea of getting rid of his body and doing this well. Aren’t these rioters deducted their pensions? As long as they had a good talk with the commander of Song Bing Wang Quanbin, there should be room for maneuver.
Wang Quanbin sent a man named Zhu Guangxu to talk to him. But Zhu Guangxu did not understand his superiors' intentions at all, but instead regarded this revenge as another opportunity to make money. He brought all the wealth of Shixiong's family into his pocket, fucked all the beloved daughters into his arms. He killed all the clans of Shixiong. Now, he completely forced all Shixiong, who was still shaking, to the opposite side of the Song Dynasty. History said: He had no ambition to return.
Whether the 100,000 troops to promote Shu was the second. It had become the revenge army of all the troops. In March, the angry troops led their troops to attack Mianzhou. At this time, there were only more than a hundred soldiers in the Mianzhou city. Seeing that the city was broken, reinforcements came. Liu Fu came from the south, and Tian Shaobin came from the northwest to support the elite imperial guards of the Song Dynasty. Under the attack, all the troops were defeated and beheaded more than 10,000.
Liu Tian and the other two should not have too many soldiers, no more than 10,000. How could they defeat the entire army of Xiong's 100,000? Because they were the elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty, and the 100,000 people of Xiong's 100,000 were just inflated and bluffed. If there were 50,000, it would be too high. There were not many professional soldiers in it, and many of them were probably caught and forced to revolt while playing mahjong and drinking tea. History says: The people in the state are in chaos.
The entire army Xiong could not defeat Mianzhou, so he turned to attack Pengzhou. Finally he took down his first base. Cui Yanjin and Gao Yanhui's Song army suffered the loss of being unfamiliar with the land. They were ambushed by the Shu soldiers. Gao Yanhui was greatly encouraged by the Shu people. It turned out that the Song army was not invincible. The 46 states in Shu suddenly rebelled against 17 states! The entire army Xiong then divided his troops to attack Mianzhou and Hanzhou, cut off the road leading to Jianmen Pass, and set up camps along the river to guard the waterway. The gate of Shu Road, which had just been opened by the Song soldiers, was closed again. Chengdu had been wrapped into a dumpling.
At this moment, Wang Quanbin and others finally woke up, and of course they were not willing to make dumpling stuffing.
Liu Guangyi and Cao Bin led the army to fight Quan Shixiong in Xinfan, capturing more than 10,000 people alive. Quan Shixiong retreated to Pizhou and was attacked by Wang Quanbin and Wang Renshan. Quan Shixiong had to escape from Guankou Village. Wang Renshan moved to Lingzhou and captured Yuan Tingyu, the commander of Lingzhou who responded to Quan Shixiong, and took him to Chengdu to show his presence.
The combat effectiveness of the Song army's robbers is indeed very powerful, I am afraid that the rebellion of the entire army will be settled soon.
But at this critical moment, something happened that caught Wang Quanbin off guard. The Song army was coaxed. In June, Lu Han of Jiazhou rebelled and surrendered to the enemy and occupied Jiazhou. Wu Huan and Sun Jin also started to make a fuss. They met with Shu general Liu Ze, gathered 50,000 people to capture Puzhou. For a time, the Song army abandoned the open and the dark, and Shu was really in chaos.
But why did the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty cause rebellion? The reason given by historical books is that the commander Wang Quanbin is arrogant and rude and disrespectful to them. But I guess it is not rude or rude. It is probably because of the uneven distribution of spoils, which leads to internal coaxing?
To fight against foreign countries, we must first settle the country. Cao Bin and Wang Renshan led their troops to Jiazhou. Lu Han of Jiazhou thought he was no match and decided to leave as a plan. Lu Han escaped, but not long after, he made a comeback. I don’t know where he summoned a group of like-minded people, killed a horse and spear, and surrounded Jiazhou. The agreement was made: At the third update, we will attack Jiazhou together.
Unfortunately, Cao Bin found out about their plan.
More and more people gathered near Jiazhou City, including Shu soldiers, rioters, Song army rebels, and even some watching the fun, wanting to take advantage of the situation. They were all inspired by Lu Han: Jiazhou City was empty in defense, but the treasury was not empty at all. There were mountains of silver piled up inside. These people were looking forward to the robbery operation that was about to begin. They pricked up their ears and waited for the three exciting sounds.
The first update passed, and the second update drum had already sounded. But time passed little by little, and the exciting third update drum was never beaten. The group of people was so weak that their feet were weak, and the red sun rose in the sky. This day, it was only midnight, and there was no third update! Because Cao Bin had already ordered the updater to stop beating the second drum!
The brothers outside the city were obedient and obedient. Without three drums, they did not move. Finally, a sound came, but it was not the drums, but the sound of the rooster crowing high. The third update? It slipped away from their waiting. So they dispersed. Perhaps they thought: I missed last night and could come back tonight.
But the people in the city were so hospitable that they came out to see them off. The group of people cried and cried, and they gave their lives to the West Genius to give up. Lu Han rode a horse and fled into Yazhou City. Tens of thousands of people were killed.
No one expected that the great hero of quelling the rebellion was not Wang Quanbin, Wang Renzhan, Liu Guangyi, nor was Cao Bin, and the only one who had just made a contribution. In this destruction of Shu, he maintained a good style of not taking the masses one by one. This person was Kang Yanze.
On August 12, the emperor issued a new appointment: to transfer Kang Yanze to Puzhou as the governor. This was a strange appointment. Because Kang Yanze was originally the governor of the Xichuan military commander and was in charge of the training of soldiers in Chengdu, he lacked experience in leading the army in the war. It should not have been sent to the front line of the battlefield. And there was something strange that Kang Yanze was angry: Kang Yanze asked Wang Quanbin to send troops to escort him, but Wang actually gave him only 100 people.
Emperor Tang in Journey to the West was a bad guy. He only gave Tang Monk a horse, a piece of clothing, and a begging for food. He invited the unarmed monk out of Chang'an and sent the fairies to the west. Wang Quanbin and Li Shimin had a deep understanding, so he gave Kang Yanze a company and drove him out of Chengdu and asked him to go to the most chaotic Puzhou to be the governor.
At present, thousands of riots are wandering in Shu. With just one hundred people, it is a big question whether Company Commander Kang can reach Puzhou. Not to mention that Puzhou is the hardest hit area where the riots appear. Shu general Liu Ze had tens of thousands of people robbed families in this area. Perhaps this was a death trap set by Wang Quanbin for Kang Yanyi. When Wang lured and killed nearly 30,000 troops surrendered by Shu that day, Kang advised him to show mercy. After this incident, the two people might have been worried. Wang Quanbin might be even more afraid that Kang Yanze would reveal the matter to Zhao Kuangyin after returning to Beijing. So he strongly recommended Kang Yanze to be the governor of Puzhou and gave him a piece of his own land and a piece of land at the crater. But Wang Quanbin did not expect that this trick of killing people with a knife would actually fulfill Kang Yanze.
Looking at Kang Yanze's resume, he was just a rich second generation. Because his father was a Jiedushi, he worked as a tribute official in the capital. His main job was to go on business trips, inspect the local area, and inquire about some information.
Helpless Kang Yanze had to lead more than a hundred people to Puzhou. Perhaps when he left Chengdu, he would feel sad that he would never return.
But gradually Kang Yanze discovered something unusual. Although there were many chaotic soldiers along the way, many of them were recharged. Many of them didn't even have military uniforms, and they were just taking advantage of the chaos to make money. They snatched the people when they saw the people, and even if the number of officers and soldiers was superior, they often avoided them. Kang Yanze was relieved. In his eyes, these chaotic soldiers were not only robbers, but also used new recruits. Kang Yanze arrived in Jianzhou and began to set up tables to recruit employees for his Puzhou. He immediately recruited more than 1,000 people. The training of new recruits was Kang Yanze's old career. After a period of strengthening military training, this group of mobs became an elite soldier that should not be underestimated.
Wang Quanbin only gave Kang Yanze a company of troops, but Kang took his own way while walking. Before he arrived in Puzhou, he formed an independent regiment.
The training results of the regiment Kang were tested immediately. A group of 5,000 soldiers came to challenge. The regiment Kang's independent regiment showed his strength and defeated the enemy and captured 700 people alive. Kang Yanze gave great grace and only killed 100 people in the lead, and the rest were released. The 600 released became Kang Yanze's free advertising and recruited more than 3,000 people for Kang Yanze.
Now, Commander Kang became Commander Kang. Liu Ze was waiting for him in front of him.
One fights ten? The soldiers are in power but not many. Liu Ze's soldiers are mostly composed of refugees. When they fight with the regular army carefully built by Kang Yanze, they all fled everywhere.
On November 1, Kang Yanze entered Puzhou. Liu Ze was convinced, and the golden moment of being a rebellious soldier was over, and he had already made enough money. So he led his subordinates to surrender. Brigade Commander Kang had become Commander Kang.
Of course this is what we say. According to the official official appointment letter, Kang Yanze was promoted to the Inspector of the Recruitment of the Seven Prefectures of Dongchuan. On January 21, 2016, Ding Deyu was appointed as the Inspector of the Xichuan Capital, and together with Kang Yanze, he provoked the important task of suppressing the rebellion.
Wang Quanbin didn't expect that he would do a good deed, and of course he did not dare to relax. The commander said to the commander that he wanted to capture the rebel king Quan Shixiong. In June, he defeated Quan Shixiong in Guankou Village, captured more than 2,000 people, and Quan Shixiong retreated to the Jintang. In the intercalary August, Lu Han from Yazhou was captured by Wang Quanbin. In December, after more than a year of fierce fighting, Quan Shixiong was almost dead. In the Xinfan battle that day, he was injured by arrows. Now he was inflamed in the wound and died of illness. But Quan Shixiong may not have figured out until his death: Who should be blamed for this two-year Shu chaos? Alas! If you want to blame, blame this world! This is not the only culprit for Quan Shixiong, but also the tragedy of this troubled times.
Destroy Shu in 66 days? No! It was a full two years! From then on, the Shu people formed an indissoluble hatred with the Song people. The country of Tianfu was no longer a natural haven for the Central Plains royal family in crisis. In just 28 years, Shu once again broke out in a larger scale, making the public riots that were terrified by the entire Song Dynasty, and Sichuan became a nightmare for the Northern Song people! In the Southern Song Dynasty, the Wu brothers fought against the Jin Dynasty, Yu Jie and Wang Jian fought against the Mongolian, and Shu turned into a protective umbrella for the Southern Song people to survive.
At the same time, we can also judge the authenticity of a legend that has been widely circulated in history. It is the historical record of the famous "Song Wave Jade Axe" written in the long couplet of Daguan Tower: After Meng Chang surrendered, Wang Quanbin once rushed the Yunnan-Guizhou map to Kaifeng and asked the emperor whether he would continue to advance south. The emperor used the jade axe in his hand to swing the Dadu River area on the map and said, "I don't have it outside this line." So the Dali Kingdom was legal, and a large area of Chinese hometown south of the Dadu River was thrown out of the Song Dynasty!
After that, the Song people greatly appreciated this. It was said that the fall of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was because Yang Guozhong sent troops to conquer Nanzhao. Therefore, for the long-term stability of the Song Dynasty, Nanzhao should not be needed at all.
