    PS: Readers who like my works are welcome to add my W letter, the chief disciple of the Jian Sect (JZSXDZ).

    In early September of the fifth year of Jingzhi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the most massive civil strife broke out in Jijing, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, after the Rebellion of the Three Kings, with nearly 200,000 troops fighting each other again.

    This battle lasted for more than a month. During this period, both the imperial court and the northern Xinjiang forces used cavalry, infantry, archers, garrison troops, and even assassin organizations. Both sides mobilized almost all the forces that could be mobilized.

    As Liu Qing guessed, Changsun Xiangyu had already anticipated the plans of Yang Ling, the head coach of the Northern Xinjiang Army. Therefore, when the veteran Yang Ling led nearly 60,000 new Northern Xinjiang troops to the vicinity of Jijing, he was immediately killed by the Jizhou Army.  Fei Guo, the head coach of the first division division, got entangled.

    One is a veteran general with rich experience in the military, and the other is a famous general in the Southern Expedition in his prime, both civil and military. It is quite surprising. The veteran general Yang Ling, who had clearly suppressed the Eastern Army before, this time  Facing Fei Guo, the most powerful general of the Jizhou Army, he couldn't get any advantage at all.

    Regardless of whether Yang Ling used his troops for good or surprise, Fei Guo was able to stop them steadily. With his 20,000 Jizhou Army First Division, and nearly 30,000 Southern and Northern armies combined, totaling 50,000 troops, he was able to forcefully  He defeated Yangling's 60,000 soldiers and horses and gained precious time for the friendly forces besieging Jijing.

    It's not that Yang Ling is inferior to Fei Guo in strategy. This veteran general suffers because he is old and no longer as brave as he was in the past. Therefore, when he meets a famous general like Fei Guo who is both wise, brave and careful, his powerlessness cannot be ignored.  Yayu had previously struggled to support the Eastern Army soldiers in his hands.

    The more critical point is that because Yang Lingjun was originally a powerful force that Li Mao did not intend to bring to Jijing, therefore, although the soldiers under this veteran general can still be regarded as elite.  However, there is a lack of strong generals who can withstand Fei Guo's force, so that Fei Guo can often securely win a battle as long as he personally leads a charge when the situation is evenly divided. This worries the veteran Yang Ling.  It is even more snowy, and the only option is to second the generals to Jijing with a shameless face.

    After all, those are brave and capable generals with young looks.  Most of them are among the main force of Yan King Li Mao.

    After receiving the letter asking for help, King Li Mao of Yan could certainly see that this was a tactic used by the imperial army to encircle the capital and not attack him, but instead took the lead in sniping at the Yang Ling army who came to support him. Therefore, he immediately called  Generals Youdou and Lexu left the city that night.  Head to Yangling Army.

    Unfortunately, Generals Cao Da and Le Xu left the city at night and within ten miles, they bumped into Ma Dan, a wolf that was looking for food outside the city. This wolf, as ferocious as Fei Guo, was lurking outside the city.  For several days, I waited for this moment and took the opportunity to break out.  Le Xu was killed in one bite, and the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang were immediately reduced in number.

    Originally, Ma Dan planned to eradicate Yu Dou together, but it was a pity that Yu Dou's force was approaching Fei Guo, but Ma Dan was not able to deal with it. Therefore, after taking advantage.  Ma Dan quickly retreated. After all, after many days, the Yuyang cavalry in Jijing City who had been weakened had long since recovered, and Ma Dan did not want to be bitten by them.

    As expected, after noticing the fighting outside the city, Cao Da immediately led eight thousand Yuyang cavalry to leave the capital and chase Ma Dan.

    Not to mention the two cavalry units, Ma Dan and Cao Da, who were about to leave the battlefield and start a cavalry hunting battle. Let's say that Yu Dou successfully came to Yang Ling's army and succeeded Yang Ling as the commander of the partial division.

    ?It¡¯s undeniable.  Although Youdou was arrogant back then, he was now the strongest general under King Li Mao of Yan, so that when he succeeded Yang Ling, Fei Guo was indeed in a hard battle.

    One is Youdou, a fierce general known as the Mountain Tiger among the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang, and the other is Fei Guo, the tiger of the Liang Kingdom that even Liangqiu Wu acquiesces to.  These two current tiger generals fought more than twenty times on the north side of Jijing, about sixty miles away from the capital.

    But in the end, Fei Guo still paid a heavy price and defeated Youdou Yang Ling's army head-on. He also went into battle in person and bravely killed Youdou, reducing the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang to one more member.

    After learning that his general Youdou died in battle, King Yan Li Mao was furious and personally brought troops to fight the imperial army. But unfortunately, the imperial army no longer has to fear His Highness the King of Yan, because the imperial army is the most powerful side.  With strong combat power, Yanhu Ji Liangqiu Wu had already led the remaining Eastern Army cavalry to the vicinity of Jijing.

    Someone said before that half of the strength of the Eastern Army was based on Liangqiu Wu¡¯s military force. But is this not the case with the current Northern Xinjiang Army?  When Yan King Li Mao was restrained by Yan Hu Ji Liang Qiu Wu, how could the Northern Xinjiang Army resist such fierce generals as Liao Li?

    On September 3rd of the fifth year of Jingzhi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, King Li Mao of Yan personally led his troops out of the city to fight and was defeated. Not only was he injured in his right arm by Liang Qiuwu, but his general Zhang Qi was also beheaded by Liao Li, resulting in the loss of the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang.  One less person.

    Shortly thereafter, Xiao Huo, the youngest general among the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang, was also killed by Xiang Qing, a fierce general of the Eastern Army. At the same time, Ma Dan was also sent from afar to defeat Cao Da and designed to lure the latter into a trap and kill him.  Xirx.

    Who would have thought that the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang, who had no rivals across the grasslands, would all die in this civil war?

    After defeating the supporting troops of the Yangling Army, the Imperial Army officially launched a fierce attack on Jijing. They attacked the city with soldiers in the morning and secretly ordered the Dongling Army and Jinling Army to sneak into the city at night and harass them, causing the Northern Xinjiang Army to have no peace day and night.

    Although the Anyi heroes who went astray and were impressed by the charm of the overlord Li Mao of Yan, the civilian sword god Chu You led hundreds of Anyi heroes to resist, but they were ultimately defeated by the Dongling people and the Jinling people. Even Chu You himself was indifferent.  Fei was defeated and lured to the bamboo forest in the city, where he hunted and killed using the secret technique passed down by Jin Ling'er.

    When things progressed to this point, no matter who it was, they all thought that Li Mao would definitely lose. However, when Li Shou, thinking about his brotherhood, sent an envoy to the city to persuade Li Mao to surrender, he did not expect that the envoy would not have time to speak after seeing Li Mao.  , and was killed by Li Mao with his sword.

    The overlord of Northern Xinjiang does not need mercy from the enemy!

    From September 6th to September 11th, King Li Mao of Yan began to break through. Facing more than 100,000 imperial troops, it was hard to imagine that this northern overlord, with a group of soldiers who had been defeated many times, actually dared to  Forced breakout day after day.

    What¡¯s even more unexpected is that facing Liang Qiu Wu, Fei Guo, Liao Li, Ma Dan and many other powerful generals from the imperial court, Li Mao actually broke out of the siege.  He forcibly fought his way through the imperial army and fled back to northern Xinjiang.

    Although Li Mao had less than ten cavalry with him at the time, he still managed to break out of the encirclement, relying on his Northern Xinjiang soldiers and generals who were loyal to him until death.

    When it came, there were more than 100,000 troops, even.  If we include the approximately 70,000 Liaodong Expeditionary Force, the number of troops that Yan King Li Mao sent south this time was nearly 200,000. However, when he was defeated and returned to northern Xinjiang, there were only less than ten cavalry left by him.  Hundreds of thousands of soldiers from northern Xinjiang died in this battle.  Even when they knew that their side was destined to fail, most of the Northern Xinjiang soldiers still sacrificed their precious lives for their lord to break through and return to Northern Xinjiang.

    This made it so that when the Jizhou Army counted the prisoners after the war, they found that there were only a few thousand prisoners

    How tragic!  How sad!

    The two-year civil strife of the Three Kings Rebellion and the Yan King Rebellion finally came to an end today.  But Da Zhou was also greatly damaged by this.  According to a post-war loss count, the number of soldiers who died in the past two years was as high as one million, which was five times or even more than the number of soldiers and horses lost by both sides when the Zhou Dynasty went south to destroy the Tang Dynasty.

    The turbulent times caused the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty to seriously weaken and prices to rise.  The treasury was empty, which caused the court to temporarily give up its plans for the Northern Expedition, and also allowed Li Mao to take a breather for the time being.

    In October of the fifth year of Jingzhi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, because all the soldiers and civilians in Jijing had moved to Chaoge earlier, Emperor Li Shou did not want the soldiers and civilians in the city to travel long distances to move back to Jijing, so he announced to the world that he would officially designate the capital of the Zhou Dynasty.  It was called Chaoge. As for the old capital of Ji Jing, it was renamed Jizhou Prefecture and was stationed by the Jizhou Army.  It became an important northern military city to defend northern Xinjiang and grassland forces.

    On October 6, Emperor Li Shou of the Great Zhou Dynasty sent a letter to Li Mao in Northern Xinjiang. He did not ask for guilt or pardon, but only said that on that day one year later, the imperial court would make the first expedition to Northern Xinjiang.

    At that time, no one knew what Li Shou meant.  Only Li Mao remained silent after reading this letter in Northern Xinjiang.

    At the same time, the imperial court officially rewarded and conferred important ministers who had made military exploits in recent years.

    First of all, Xie An was officially canonized as King Anle. It must be said that this was somewhat beyond the expectations of the Jizhou Army generals. After all, with Xie An's military exploits over the years, a title with the word "Îä" in it was more than enough.

    But having said that, I am afraid that only a handful of people who know about it know the meaning of the title King Anle. That was the title Li Shou had when he met Xie An.

    What was even more surprising to the generals of the Jizhou Army was that Mo Mo, the eldest son of Xie An and his eldest grandson Xiangyu, who was not yet one year old, was canonized as King Wu'an by Li Shou. This made everyone secretly guess whether  The emperor made a mistake and gave the title that should have been given to me to his son?

    It is worth mentioning that when he was granted the title, Emperor Li Shou personally awarded Xie An the four-clawed python robe. In other words, from today on, Xie An will again wear those robes with the four-clawed black python.  That's justifiable.

    After Xie An, the ones who should have been awarded the title were Li Xian, Liang Qiuwu, Wen Qin and others. However, because these people's official positions had reached the top, Li Shou did not grant them the title this time, but just wrote a book himself.  The book has the calligraphy and painting of Yan Hu Ji.He gave Liang Qiu Wu and Wen Qin a sword, and gave Li Xianke the honor of driving in the palace, going to the palace with swords, and entering the court without worshiping.

    As for Changsun Xiangyu and Liu Qing, because they were the heroes who made suggestions in this battle, Li Shou did not hesitate to reward them, but unfortunately, the former did not care about such a dispensable reward for her, and the latter, the senior  The eighteen-year-old outstanding military advisor obviously had not yet eliminated the grudge in his heart. Therefore, he did not accept the canonization of Li Shou, the emperor who destroyed the Great Zhou Kingdom that destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty. This made Li Shou a little embarrassed.

    As a result, Li Shou had no choice but to increase the rewards to Jin Ling'er, Qin Ke'er and other Xie An's confidantes. In the end, even Xie An's god-sister Wang Xin got the title of princess, although the latter  He made no contribution to this victory at all.

    Then there are the generals of the Jizhou Army.

    Among them, Fei Guo was officially appointed as the general; Liao Li took over the Jizhou Army and became the commander-in-chief of the Jizhou Army; Ma Dan was transferred to the north as the general of Yanmen, guarding the northwest of Bingzhou for the Zhou Dynasty.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??

    As for the rest of the generals, they also received canonization rewards one after another, including Liang Cheng, the commander of the Liang Army in Jingzhou, who was also promoted to the state capital of Jingzhou.  Even Liang Shu, the governor of Xuzhou, and Zhang Qi, the governor of Guangling County, who were killed by the Taiping Army earlier, were given posthumous titles and their heirs were asked to inherit the titles.

    It is worth mentioning that it was a full year after this battle.  The Great Zhou Dynasty recuperated and gradually recovered from the heavy losses caused by successive battles. However, in October of the following year, Emperor Li Shou followed the preface and organized an army to launch the first crusade against Northern Xinjiang. The target was the man who had been deprived of the throne.  There is no doubt that Li Mao, King of Yan.

    And for this crusade.  Li Shou transferred all the elites and fierce generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even Ma Dan, who was the coach in Yanmen, was temporarily summoned. This is enough to prove that Li Shou is bound to win the Northern Xinjiang.

    But to everyone¡¯s surprise, Li Mao, the arrogant former King of Yan, did not come out of the city to fight.  On the day when he learned that the imperial army was about to attack, he summoned his newly married wives and concubines and their children to his side, and ate with them as if nothing had happened.

    However, that night, Li Mao drank poisoned wine and committed suicide.

    Because he knew very well that whether it was a year ago or a year later, Northern Xinjiang, which had lost almost all its elite troops, could not stop the imperial army at all.  If necessary, Li Shou could actually ask Liang Qiu Wu to pursue Li Mao as early as the war and attack the entire northern Xinjiang.

    It is no exaggeration to say that this year was deliberately left by Li Shou to Li Mao so that Li Mao could leave heirs and not be like the former crown prince Li Wei, King of Qin Li Shen, and King of Anling Li Cheng.  Not even an heir.

    It was precisely because he felt Li Shou's kindness derived from brotherhood that Li Mao remained silent at that time, unlike the previous time.  Kill the envoys who persuaded them to surrender.

    However, the aloof Li Mao will not allow himself to bow to anyone, even if it is a matter of his own life and death, so in order to respond to Li Shou's kindness.  With tens of thousands of troops still in hand, Li Mao drank poisoned wine and committed suicide.

    A great generation of northern heroes, kings of the grasslands, heroes in the hearts of the residents of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, have all fallen.

    After learning about this incident, Li Shouzhao informed the world, pardoned Li Mao for committing the crime of rebellion, and posthumously named the fourth brother King Shang of Zhou.  This posthumous title is not only a sign of Li Shou's tolerance for Li Mao, but also a pity for the latter.

    As for Li Mao's children, Li Shou adopted them into the palace and asked Queen Wang to teach them carefully.

    Of course, these are just words later, and the time goes back to October of the fifth year of Jingzhi, because at this time Xie An still had a major criminal case to deal with, that is, against Han Hong and Han Yu, their father and son, for helping Yan.  Wang Limao betrayed the court and was sentenced.

    At that time, after the Eastern Army captured Han Chang, they also captured Han Hong, Duke of the Western Kingdom. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the old man seemed to be running away, but was intercepted by Luo Chao and his men. Now, both father and son have fallen into Xie An's hands.  , knelt in the hall of the Great Prison Temple under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Punishment and accepted the sentence.

    Because of the special status of the father and son of the Han family, the father is the Duke of the country and the son is the marquis. Therefore, in addition to Gou Gong, who has been promoted to the Minister of Prison Temple, to interrogate this time, Xie An, the Minister of Punishment, must be present. In addition,  In addition, there are the Minister of Punishment, Xun Zheng, the Minister of Weiwei Temple, the Minister of Guanglu Temple, and Beichi Hou Wenqin, because these two plus the current Gou Gong are the three lieutenants' joint trial. If we include the censor who listened and recorded  Meng Rang, the imperial censor of Taiwan, as well as Wang Dan, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and editor of the Hanlin Academy, and all the criminal-related offices of the entire Zhou Dynasty were present.

    It is worth mentioning that even Mo Fei, the commander-in-chief of the Fusi Division in the North Town, and Ding Qiu, the commander-in-chief of the Fusi Division in the South Town,These two persons in charge of half of the criminal-related yamen were also present to observe, but they wanted to know the scale of this criminal trial.

    ¡°It¡¯s no wonder, after all, the status of the Han family father and son is indeed special. If you want to hold such two important figures accountable, you must strictly follow the rules to avoid being found guilty.  It would be bad if uninformed people mistakenly thought that this was a man who had contributed to the persecution of Zhou Dynasty by the imperial court.

    It has to be said that Xie An couldn't help but feel a little emotional when looking at the Han family and his son kneeling in the hall.

    Thinking back to those days, when Xie An angrily left Nangong Mansion due to certain things and was desperate, the then Xixiang Marquis Han Cang could be said to be high-spirited. But now, he, Xie An, who was like a beggar back then, is occupying a high position in the hall.  He was appointed to such a prestigious position as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, but the Marquis of Xixiang, Han Cang, who casually threw him five taels of silver back then, became a prisoner. This makes people feel sad that fate has played a trick on people.

    However, just because Xie An recognized Han Xi, it did not mean that Han Xi recognized Xie An. After all, people depend on their clothes. Even though Han Xi had met Xie An many times before, how could he have thought of it.  Could it be that the most popular official next to the emperor today is the beggar-like person who came to his Xigong Mansion at the end of the twelfth lunar month to beg for longevity and sustenance?

    Xie An was in a trance there, wandering around. Gou Gong, the new minister of the Prison Temple, had already punished the Han family and his son for their rebellious behavior, which was nothing more than beheading and ransacking their homes.

    It can be seen that Gou Gong is a little excited.  It's no wonder that the new official has three things to do when he takes office.  As soon as he, the newly appointed minister of the Great Prison Temple, appeared on the scene, he wanted to execute a duke and a marquis. You can imagine the excitement in his heart.

    "What do you think, my lords?" Gou Gong asked Xie An, Xun Zheng, Wen Qin and others. As for others, such as Meng Rang, the imperial censor, and Mo Fei and Ding Qiu, who were in charge of Fusi in the north and south, they were only spectators.  Authority is not within the scope of Gou Gong's inquiry.

    finally.  With the nods of Xie An, Xun Zheng and Wen Qin, Gou Gong was stunned and sentenced the Han family and his son to death. The date was three days later.

    Afterwards, Gou Gong personally led people to imprison the Han family and his son in a heavy prison, and said a few words in detail to Dibu, who was the prison chief.

    "Old man. I heard that your birthday will be in two months' time? But it's your fault that you won't be able to wait until that day! But, since Mr. Xie has told you, I have no choice but to do it and ask you to celebrate in prison in advance.  Forget it!" Not long after Gou Gong left, Dibu ordered people to go to the street to prepare some wine, food and birthday food, and delivered them to the Han family and his son.  This made the father and son look at each other.

    "Master Xie? Why does Master Xie know my birthday?" Han Hong asked in surprise.

    "That's right!" As if he remembered something, Dibu, who was about to leave, turned around, took out five taels of silver from his arms, threw it into Han Chang's arms, and said lightly, "Master Xie asked me to pay you back!  Your Excellency said, although it was not his intention, you and your son finally helped you once or twice when you were down. Your Excellency has a clear grudge Otherwise, such a serious crime of treason would not be solved by just you and your son asking for punishment!  "

    The father and son of the Han family were a little puzzled that Gou Gong ordered beheading instead of Ling Chi or cutting in half. Furthermore, although the family property was confiscated, it was not even their relatives who were sitting on them. Hearing this, they couldn't help but be stunned.

    To know.  Logically speaking, this kind of treason is definitely a matter of killing the six tribes.

    "Thank you sir?" Looking at the five taels of silver in his arms, Han Chang couldn't help but widen his eyes. Through the five taels of silver, he suddenly remembered some past events.

    How could he not be clear that the Master Xie mentioned by Dibu was referring to the Master of the Ministry of Punishment who was sitting in the hall of the Prison Temple just now, but the most powerful minister in the Great Zhou Dynasty was actually  The beggar who he made things difficult for and gave alms to?

    Involuntarily, with the five taels of silver in his hand, Han Chang let out a long breath. Even though he had not taken it seriously before, at this moment, he had to admit that Xie An was just as the rumors said, with clear grudges and a meal.  It must be repaid, and the grievances of Yaizi must be avenged!

    At the same time, our Lord Xie Anxie unexpectedly did not return home, but went to a newly opened restaurant in the city to get drunk alone.

    ¡°Perhaps it¡¯s because after meeting Han Chang, Xie An couldn¡¯t help but bring back some memories that couldn¡¯t be said to be old

    PS: Ahem, this book will be finished, maybe in two or three chapters.  Don't say I'm lazy, it's because after Liang Qiuwu escaped from trouble, the war with Northern Xinjiang no longer had any suspense.  As you all know, I don't like to elaborate on obvious things to deceive you. This is the case with the Black Devil, the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the same is true with this wife.

    As for the biggest reason, it is because I have been writing this book for a year and a half, and I am really tired of it. As expected, pure history is not suitable for me. I still like to write some history with a fantasy color.

    By the way, I am imagining a very grand world structure for my next book.??'s half-historical and half-fantasy novel, this time the goal is to turn it into a comic book, hehe.

    After what happened with the Yangcheng Evening News, I feel that if a person is not famous, then he will be insignificant.  You should also pay more attention to this.

    As for when the next novel will be released, ahem, to be honest, I have really had a lot of things going on recently In addition to the mess with the Yangcheng Evening News, I also have to learn to drive. In addition, my wife, who has just received her license and has not yet served drinks, is pregnant, alas  ¡­

    I am debating whether to have children because now is the time to work hard and make money.

    Finally, I wish everyone all the best, because I have indeed had a lot of troubles recently and I am not too old, which is strange.

    ?????????????????????????? It¡¯s my birthday in a few days. If you have time, please help me click on the birthday blessing at a certain point. It will be more beautiful, please.
