Silver Fox of the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 321 Carrying the King of Hanzhong and the Beginning of the North-South Conflict
The sudden death of Tai Shici made Liu Bei full of sadness, and Shen Chen was very surprised.
Originally thought that he had escaped the reincarnation of history and would open a new chapter, but he did not expect to die in the plague after all.
Huo Jun and Tai Shici were arranged by Liu Bei to ambush behind Bodao, and the soldiers and horses were all dispatched from Jingzhou.
At that time, the Huainan plague was prevalent and infected Zhao Yun and Huang Shejun, so that the Xiling Army and Jiangxia Navy, as well as the people in Jiangxia who surrounded the lake and reclaimed land, suffered heavy casualties.
Perhaps at that time the plague traveled up the Yangtze River, spreading all the way to Jiangzhou, Fujie, Jiangyang, Bodao and other places, and then spread to Bashu.
In addition to the two senior generals Tai Shici and Huo Jun in Liu Bei's army, many middle-level officers were also killed and injured, and a large number of low-level soldiers were also infected.
The only good news is that Shen Chen controlled it in time, did not allow the epidemic to expand again, and prevented a greater disaster from happening in time.
But Huo Jun and Tai Shici still died of illness.
But such is life.
Liu Bei was so sad that he returned to Shu County in person, buried the two men generously, treated their heirs kindly, and appointed Huang Zhong as a general to lead the army.
The plague in the 22nd year of Jian'an caused the last three princes in the late Han Dynasty to die down.
The plague was rampant in Cao Cao's rear, so that no one was farming the fields, and it became difficult to maintain food and grass. He had to abandon Xiliang and withdraw his troops back to Chang'an.
Liu Bei's situation is a little better, but not much better. The plague has caused everyone to be in danger, especially the frontline food and grass.
If the supply of grain and grass in Wudu is to be guaranteed, Jingzhou and Yizhou must continue to sail to the north to transport grain.
However, Huainan and Nanyang continued to import epidemics, and as the Yangtze River flowed into Bashu, Huo Jun and Tai Shici died of illness because of the plague spread from Jingzhou, resulting in the loss of about 2 of the [-] ambush soldiers placed in the rear.
In this situation, Liu Bei was also unable to compete for Liangzhou. He only arranged a few soldiers and officials in Wudu to govern, and withdrew his troops back to Hanzhong to accumulate food and grass to prepare for the next big war.
Sun Quan's situation is similar to that of Cao Cao.
Although Li Dian, the frontline general of the Cao army, also fell ill at this time, and died at the end of the year, only Xue Ti and Zhang Liao remained in Hefei.
Huang She, the commander of the Jiangxia navy, was also infected with the plague. Fortunately, before he died of illness, Zhang Zhongjing arrived in time and successfully rescued Huang She, while the Jiangxia navy and the Xiling defenders were half killed or injured.
But the surrounding enemies suffered heavy losses, and Sun Quan was not much better.
Huainan was the hardest-hit area. Lu Su and Lingtong died of the plague one after another. Four out of ten soldiers in the army were infected with the disease. The population under his rule also declined on a large scale, making it difficult for him to sustain himself. He retired to Jianye to recuperate.
For a while, people from all walks of life had already gathered momentum to prepare for the upcoming war, but due to the sudden outbreak of the plague, the war came to a standstill.
Cao Cao used Guo Jia's plan to attack Sun Quan first, so that Sun Quan could win Liu Bei's trust, and then lead Sun Quan to attack Jingzhou.
Sun Quan also took advantage of the trend and made a plan to attack Jingzhou.
And Liu Bei also used his tricks, deliberately fighting Cao Cao in Xiliang Pass, making the main force transfer to the north, and the illusion of Jingzhou's emptiness lured Sun Quan to attack.
But seeing that the stage had been set up and the actors were about to be in place, the sudden plague that swept across the world caught the three parties by surprise.
Even Shen Chen, who roughly knew the direction of history, how could he have predicted this kind of thing to happen?
After all, he has only read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and has never read any history books.
So he can only do his best.
Fortunately, after more than half a year of action, the plague in Jingyi was basically brought under control. By the middle of the 23rd year of Jian'an, the plague in the north had also gradually subsided.
Shen Chen sent many doctors to the north with prescriptions, like retrogrades, going to places where the epidemic occurred.
Everywhere they went, they took medicine to treat the plagued people. When asked by others, they said that Zhang Zhongjing, a great doctor in Nanyang, had found the right medicine.
The meaning of Zhongzi in ancient times is the meaning of the second son.
Shen Chen has an older brother named Shen Zhong, so Shen Chen took the name of Shen Zhongzi as a great Confucian for himself. The books written by him were circulated in the north, and they were all published with this name on the cover to indicate who the author was.
But who in the world doesn't know that Shen Zhongzi is Nanyang Shen Xiaoqing?When he was more than ten years old, he realized that the concept of "unity of knowledge and action" is respected by scholars all over the world.
Therefore, although the people of Cao and Wei were hostile to him, they have been respected by the people of Wei since then.
Of course Cao Cao didn't know what cultural invasion was.
There was no literary inquisition at that time, and it was common for great Confucian scholars to criticize the emperor’s government. Since the Han Dynasty, there has only been one literary inquisition, and that is Sima Qian’s grandson Yang Yun, who was executed in half because of the "Book of Baosun Huizong" that "Emperor Xuan saw and hated him".
Even the scourge of the party's imprisonment was not the literary prison, but the failure of the Tai students to follow the three monarchs into the palace to execute the eunuchs, which led to the emperor's massive suppression of foreign relatives and party members.
Kong Rong did not die from literary prison. He scolded Cao Cao too much in the early days, and he scolded Cao Cao every day and never saw Cao Cao tease him.
His death was because he belonged to the royalist veterans of Emperor Xiandi Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, which hindered Cao Cao's path to the government and the opposition. A large number of royalists were purged, and the remaining courtiers all became Cao Cao's minions.
Therefore, Shen Chen's scriptures were circulated in the north, and the book's analysis of the bottom line and the analysis of the pros and cons of the aristocratic families were also circulated in the north.
Even because of the criticism of the aristocratic family's confinement of land and raising slaves that caused the country's decline, it was considered by the aristocratic family to have harmed their interests, so they were prohibited from spreading it to the outside world or to the people.
However, the ruling class such as the Cao family recognized the words in his book very much. Cao Cao used to give his book to Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and others to read, silently write and recite the full text.
After all, Shen Chen said in the book that the interests of the highest ruling class and the people at the bottom are the same, and the ruler and the people at the bottom should complement each other. The king cannot do without the people, and the people cannot do without the king.
Only the bureaucratic class and the aristocratic class have the same interests, and they all choose to exploit the people for the benefit of their own family.
The final result of this going on can only be that the country is getting more and more declining. The highest ruling class, such as the Cao family of Cao Wei, the Liu family of Ji Han, and the Sun family of Soochow will lose their population, land, food and grass. Thus allowing the country to be annexed by foreign enemies.
Therefore, Cao Cao not only recognized Shen Chen's words, but also hoped that such changes could be carried out in the north.
It's a pity that he compromised with the Yingchuan and Yanzhou gentry in the early days, so that the power of the northern gentry flourished again, and the power of the aristocratic family was unprecedentedly strong.
Moreover, he still needs the strength of the aristocratic family to help him support the court and avoid worries.Like him, almost all the courtiers under the command of King Wei are from aristocratic families, and there is no way to follow Liu Bei to suppress the aristocratic families.
The same goes for Sun Quan.
Several defeats made Sun Quan have to rely more on the Jiangdong gentry.
Even the Sun family almost jointly ruled Wu with the aristocratic family.
The Jiangdong family clamored for Sun Quan to surrender to Cao Cao every day, which made Sun Quan a headache.
If Liu Bei hadn't suppressed the aristocratic family in the land of Jingyi and taken away their land and population, it is estimated that the Jiangdong gentry would have overthrown the Sun family and defected to Liu Bei instead of letting Sun Quan surrender to Cao Cao.
Therefore, Cao Cao and Sun Quan can only promote Shen Chen's theory, and want to popularize these theories that suppress the aristocratic family, so as to cultivate the children of poor families.
But he didn't dare to really suppress the aristocratic family.
As a result, Shen Chen's theory gradually spread and flourished. He has established a school of masters in Jingzhou, and is also revered as a great Confucian in other places.
For a time, the benevolence of doctors Shen Chen and Zhang Zhongjing spread everywhere in the north.
In the 22nd year of Jian'an, the epidemic gradually came to an end. It was not until the beginning of the 23rd year of Jian'an, when the epidemic situation in Jingyi was basically calmed down, that Liu Bei took the opportunity to send troops again and captured Xiliang.
Han Sui had died of illness at this time. Yan Xing rebelled against him before and defected to Xiahouyuan, but later Cao Cao's forces withdrew from Xiliang due to the epidemic. After Han Sui's death, no one occupied Xiliang.
As the first person among the three to quell the epidemic, Liu Bei took this opportunity and immediately sent Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Li Hei and others as generals to personally go to Tianshui to capture Liangzhou.
Wherever Ma Chao went, Xiliang watched the wind fall. Jia Xufazheng suggested that Liu Bei move the people of Liangzhou to Hanzhong. Liu Bei thought so, so he moved all the Han people from the three counties of Longxi, Jincheng, and Hanyang back to Hanzhong, leaving a large number of Qiang people.
Cao Cao also moved.
However, the places he occupied at that time were Hanyang County, Anding County, and Beidi County. Since Hanyang County belonged to the front line, Cao Liu was at war, and it was inconvenient to move people. Moreover, he also needed to recruit civilian husbands to transport food, so he did not move to Hanyang people at that time.
In Hanyang County at the end of Han Dynasty, that is, Jixian County, Tianshui County in Cao Wei Dynasty, there was a 17-year-old boy who lost his father when he was young and lived with his widowed mother. He liked Zheng Xuan's classics and Shen Chen's classics.
Historically, after he became an adult, the county considered his father's achievements, so he was recruited as an official in the county, and then called to work in Liangzhou, and he was given the official Zhonglang to join the army.
Now, because Liu Bei began to compete with Cao Cao for Xiliang, and after Cao Cao retreated, he captured Liangzhou, and moved to Hanzhong County with the large army.
The boy's surname is Jiang, his first name is Wei, and his courtesy name is Boyue.
It took Cao Cao more than a month to learn that Liangzhou had been occupied by Liu Bei, so he hurriedly prepared to send troops.
In the middle of the 23rd year of Jian'an, Cao Cao raised an army of [-], plus the [-] army guarding Guanzhong, a total of more than [-] horses, and marched to Xiliang.
The two sides confronted each other again in Jieting.
However, due to the fact that the epidemic situation in the north has not been completely calmed down, Cao Cao hastily raised his troops. After three months of confrontation, the follow-up food and grass failed to keep up in time, so he had to withdraw to Chang'an.
Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei and Ma Chao to pursue them, and ordered Guan Yu's soldiers to go out of the ramp to attack Cao Cao's army. They won the victory of Longguan and Meixian.
Cao Jun killed and wounded many troops in the two battles, and fled back to Jingzhao Yin and Zuo Fengyi in embarrassment. Occupied by Liu Bei.
For a while, Liu Bei's army gained momentum, and there was a tendency to annex Guanzhong in one fell swoop.
Taking advantage of this great victory, the group persuaded Liu Bei to become the king of Hanzhong, so Liu Bei took the throne in Hanzhong, and presented himself to Emperor Xian of Han for his approval.
Then set up a mandala in Mianyang, Hanzhong, with a radius of nine li, distributed in five directions, each with a banner and guard of honor, the three armies lined up neatly, accompanied by all the ministers solemnly, after reading the above list of all the ministers, crowned Liu Bei, proclaimed King of Hanzhong, and ruled the place. Based in Jiangzhou.
Among them, the king of Hanzhong persuaded Liu Xie, Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty, to join Liu Bei. Among them were General Pingxi Duting Hou Ma Chao, Zuo General Shi Lingzhong Army General Xu Jing, Ying Sima Pangxi, Yi Cao engaged in Zhonglang General Yi Zhonglang General Shooting, General Zhuge Liang of the Army Division, General Shen Chen of the Zhenjun, Guan Yu, the General of Han Shouting, Zhang Fei, the General of Xinting, Zhang Fei, General Huang Zhong of Jianwei, General Zhao Yun of the Yi Army, General Huang She of Hengbo, General Lai Gong of Zhenyuan, General Fa of Yangwu 120 people, including General Zheng and Xingye General Li Yan, were sent to Chendu, where they were captured by Han Emperor Liu Xie.
It's just that this letter of persuasion will of course not reach Liu Xie.
Now the nominal capital of Dahan is Chenliu County in Chenliu County, named Chendu.
But the actual capital is Ye County in Wei County, Jizhou, named Ye City.
So this letter soon reached Cao Cao's hands.
He knew that he couldn't stop Liu Bei, and he would also disgust Liu Bei, so he asked someone to write a scolding edict in Liu Xie's tone, stamped the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, and sent it back.
It's a pity that this edict had just arrived in Mei County and was torn up by Zhang Fei before it was sent to Hanzhong, so he pretended nothing happened.
So Liu Bei became the King of Hanzhong without the knowledge of Han Emperor Liu Xie.
Just like Liu Xie didn't want to designate Cao Cao as Duke of Wei and King of Wei at all, even if Sun Quan proclaimed himself King of Wu at this time, he no longer had the right to intervene.
For Liu Xie, this is not a kind of sadness.
But that's the truth.
It is also something that cannot be changed.
Liu Xie was controlled by Cao Cao, holding the emperor to order the princes, like a puppet.
In the early days, he was still useful, as he could help recruit talents, obtain a righteous name, and attract refugees and families to vote.
But when the three-legged confrontation pattern appeared at the end of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xie's usefulness became less and less, and Cao Cao's attitude towards him naturally plummeted, and he didn't take it seriously at all.
After Liu Bei ascended the throne as the King of Hanzhong, he enfeoffed all his officials.
He took Guan Yu as the former general, gave him a holiday, and sat in Guanzhong.Take Ma Chao as the rear general and sit in Wudu.Take Zhang Fei as the right general, give holidays, and sit in Liangzhou.Taking Shen Chen as General Zuo and Prince Taifu, he gave a holiday and took the seat in Nanyang.
At the same time, Ling Fazheng was the Prime Minister of You and Minister of Shangshuling, Zhuge Liang was the Prime Minister of the State, Pang Tong was the Prime Minister of the Central Committee, Jia Xu was the Royal Shifu and the Changshi of the King of Hanzhong, and Xu Shu was the Prime Minister of the Left and the Prefect of Hanzhong.
The other Grand Tutor Xu Jing, Tai Chang Lai Gong, Guang Luxun Huang Zhu, Shao Fu Zhang Song, Zong Zheng Liu Yan, Ting Wei Wang Mou, Tai Fu Zhou Lin, Grand Secretary Li Hui, Shang Shu Liu Ba, Yang Yi, Jiang Wan, Deng Zhi, servants Ma Liang, Liao Li and so on.
Afterwards came the governors of various places, the prefects of ten counties in Jingzhou except Guiyang County, and the prefects of [-] counties in the north of Yizhou, except for a few people such as Anhan General Mi Zhu, Jianwei General Huang Zhong, Yijun General Zhao Yun, Hengbo General Huang She, etc. Most of them have been re-sealed.
Even Wei Yan was conferred the title of General Zhenyuan and concurrently Prefect of Shangyong because of his meritorious service in pacifying Hanzhong.
However, although Mi Zhu, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Huang She and others were not entrusted with enfeoffments, they were rewarded.
The main reason is that when Mi Zhu was arranging shifts, he was above Xiangguo, only under Taifu Xu Jing, and his status was high.
However, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Huang She and others did not make much contribution, so they have not been promoted for the time being.
But the three of them are all generals guarding one side, higher than ordinary miscellaneous generals, and only below the four generals in the front, back, left, and right. They are basically part-time local prefects. They are considered high status among the generals, so they are not deliberately suppressed.
Like Cao Cao, Liu Bei enfeoffed his group of officials according to the standard system of princes and kings in the Western Han Dynasty.
In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang entrusted his heirs as vassal kings. These vassal kings formed their own kingdoms, and their officials basically copied the central court. It was not until the Han Jing Emperor that this situation changed.
Among them, it is particularly important to point out the issue of left and right prime ministers and prime ministers.
The prime minister and the prime minister are not one official position, but two, and in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the status of the prime minister was higher than that of the prime minister.
Because after Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he restored some of the Qin system, and established the Xiangguo and his deputy as the left and right prime ministers.
For example, during the confrontation between Chu and Han, the prime minister Han Xin, his left and right deputies were the right prime minister Cao Shen, and the left prime minister Chen Juan, who followed him to attack Xiang Yu.
After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Han Xin was granted the title of King of Chu, and Xiao He officially became the first Prime Minister after the establishment of the Han Dynasty. His left and right deputies were Fan Kuai, the left prime minister, and Yin Hui, the right prime minister.
Later, Lu Chan was the prime minister, the left and right deputy were the prime minister of the left to judge Shi Qi, and the prime minister of the right, Chen Ping.
Between Xiao He and Lu Chan, Cao Shen, Fu Kuan, Fan Kui, Zhou Bo and others all served as prime ministers, and they were all equipped with assistants such as left and right prime ministers.
There are not even two prime ministers on the left and right, but also a prime minister in the middle.Because Xiao He had been the prime minister of China, there was once a prime minister in the early Han Dynasty, and the three prime ministers controlled the situation.
In terms of status, the emperor is the largest, followed by the prime minister, and then the left and right prime ministers.
Therefore, in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, before the death of the last Xiangguo, Lu Chan, the Xiangguo was equivalent to the status of the later prime minister, with one person under [-], and the left and right prime ministers were equivalent to deputy prime ministers, who belonged to the Xiangguo's deputy.
Afterwards, the vassal kingdoms also set up Xiangguo and its deputy prime minister. After Emperor Hanwen succeeded to the throne, he issued an edict to let the vassal states revoke the position of Xiangguo and change the name of the prime minister to Xiangguo.
In the bronze inscriptions of the Han Dynasty unearthed in later generations, the state minister is generally called "Xiangbang", and the document records it as "Xiangguo", which should be changed by later generations to avoid the taboo of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty.
In other words, Liu Bei modeled on the princes and kings in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, and established a prime minister, with three prime ministers on the left and right.
In terms of status, Xu Jing has the highest status, followed by Mi Zhu, then Prime Minister Xiangguo and Jiuqing.
But they only have super high status and no real power.
In terms of real power, Zhuge Liang is the highest, followed by Fazheng, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu.
Originally, Liu Bei planned to appoint Jia Xu as Prime Minister Zuo because of his meritorious contributions, but Jia Xu insisted on refusing to do so, so he could only be the Yushi doctor in the end.
General side.
Guan Yu has the highest status, followed by Shen Chen.
There are four generals in the front, back, left, and right. The former general is the most honorable, the rear general is next, then the right general, and finally the left general.
Because the right is the most valuable in the Han Dynasty, the left general should have the lowest status.
But I can't stand Liu Bei as the left general.
In addition, Shen Chen also has the honorary title of civil servant of Prince Taifu, which has a super high status.
So in the ranking, if Shen Chen is in the list of civil servants, he should be ranked below Xu Jing and Mi Zhu, and above Jiuqing, with a rank of two thousand stones.
If in the list of military generals, it is only ranked below Guan Yu and above Ma Chao, Zhang Fei, Huang She, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, etc., it is the second place among the generals, and the status is still very high.
And in the 23rd year of Jian'an, Liu Bei had just repelled Cao Cao and took advantage of the trend to become King of Hanzhong.
At this time, the imperial physician Ling Jiben, Shaofu Geng Ji, Sizhi Weihuang and others in Chendu believed that Cao Cao was now far away in Guanzhong, and Cao's army was defeated and morale was low, so they should take the opportunity to initiate civil strife.
So they contacted Shen Chen in Nanyang, preparing to launch an attack at night, killing Wan Qian, Wang Xuan and others Cao Cao placed in Chendu to guard Liu Xie. Enter Chendu.
Shen Chen had watched the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so he knew about this scene, but he knew that Yoshimoto, Geng Ji and others took it for granted.
Because Cao Cao deployed heavy troops in Chendu, there are still 10 troops from Cao Hong in Yingchuan Runan and other places.
Even if Gibbon and the others succeeded, Shen Chen would send troops to attack Yingchuan immediately, and they would not be able to kill Chen Du in a short time. At that time, Chen Du's soldiers and horses could easily wipe them out.
So Shen Chen replied immediately, hoping that they would not act rashly for the time being, and even if they wanted to do something, they should find out the specific situation, such as all the arrangements of Cao Jun in Chendu, who could control some soldiers and horses by killing them, and so on.
But Gibbon and the others had made up their minds and insisted on taking action. Fortunately, they listened to the persuasion and did not immediately start rashly. Instead, they cooperated with Shen Chen's spies in Chendu and began to inquire about Cao Jun's situation in Chendu.
According to their intelligence, Cao Jun has 3 to [-] horses in Chen. The commander is Yan Kuang, a general of Diannong Zhonglang, who is Cao Hong's subordinate. He is mainly responsible for grain and grass in Henan and other places, and transports grain to Cao Hong.
It is definitely not possible to kill Yan Kuang and control the Diannong army.
Because Yan Kuang stayed in the heavily guarded barracks every day, they basically had no ability to fight in.
The people who actually controlled the city defense of Chendu, the imperial palace guards, and thousands of soldiers at each city gate were Cao Cao's Wei Wangchang Shi Wanqian and Shangshu Wangxuan.
In history, it was Wang Bi, but Wang Bi was beheaded by Shen Chen, so like Wang Bi, Wan Qian, who was born as Sikong Changshi in his early years, has become the actual controller of Chen Du.
Gibbon and the others believed that if they could quickly kill Wan Qian and Wang Xuan and control the gate of Chen Du's palace, they would be able to resist Yan Kuang's attack.
When Cao Hong gets the news, he will definitely turn pale with shock and send troops back to Chen Du to suppress the rebellion.
At this time, as long as Shen Chen's army is dispatched to attack Chen Du immediately, Cao Hong, Yan Kuang and others will surely be taken down in one fell swoop.
Only the plan was a complete suicide plan.
Because it was stated in the letter to Shen Chen that the only soldiers they could mobilize were more than a thousand domestic slaves. Even with the spies and spies that Shen Chen had deployed in Chendu for many years, there were less than 2000.
With this few people, it is enough to defend against [-] to [-] Diannong troops, let alone Cao Hong's main force of [-].
Runan is near and Nanyang is far away. When Shen Chen arrives, it is estimated that Gibbon's corpses will be cold, and it is impossible to survive until the arrival of Nanyang reinforcements.
Therefore, the entire rebellion plot was very sloppy, and Gibbon's strength was very limited, and they couldn't make any waves at all.
But Gibbon and others wrote back saying that they are not afraid of death, and they are willing to die to show their ambitions.
Shen Chen could only helplessly hope that their action would take a little longer, and he would do it when he was fully prepared.
no way.
Advised and persuaded.
What can I do if I can't be persuaded?
But this is not the charm of the righteous men since the Qin and Han Dynasties.
For righteousness, Wu Fu assassinated Dong Zhuo.
There is Dong Chengmou's clothes belt edict.
Empress Fu Mitu assassinated Cao Cao.
In the end, Ji Ben, Geng Ji, Wei Huang, Jin Yi and others were willing to die generously.
Although Shen Chen knew that their death was meaningless, he couldn't chill the hearts of the righteous, so he actively prepared to respond.
In autumn and September in the second half of the 23rd year of Jian'an, Yoshimoto saw his opportunity, because in a few days, it was the time when they observed that Yan Kuang was going to transport a large amount of grain to the front line of Yingchuan.
At this time, Chen Du was relatively empty. There were only thousands of guards at the palace gate guarding Liu Xie, soldiers at the city gate, and thousands of Diannong troops outside the city. There were not many people.
Therefore, Gibbon immediately sent someone to send a message to Shen Chen's spies in Chendu, asking them to send a message to Shen Chen immediately to prepare for action.
When Shen Chen got the news, he responded immediately, and ordered Wenpin to lead 5000 men to guard Danshui to prevent Cao Jun from entering Nanyang from Wuguan to support Cao Hong.He also personally led the army, with Gan Ning, Zhang Xiu, and Lu Chang as his generals, with an army of [-], and marched northward to the Central Plains.
It's just that no one can think of it.
The wheel of history has changed once again.
Originally, this rebellion was just a small-scale riot and did not cause a sensation.
But when Shen Chen sent troops, the nature changed.
Overnight, the three parties moved together, and they picked up the plan that the three parties had put down due to the epidemic.
Historically, the struggle for hegemony among the Three Kingdoms ended with Ji Han destroying Soochow and opposing Cao Wei from north to south.
It is said in history that the North-South confrontation began.
Originally thought that he had escaped the reincarnation of history and would open a new chapter, but he did not expect to die in the plague after all.
Huo Jun and Tai Shici were arranged by Liu Bei to ambush behind Bodao, and the soldiers and horses were all dispatched from Jingzhou.
At that time, the Huainan plague was prevalent and infected Zhao Yun and Huang Shejun, so that the Xiling Army and Jiangxia Navy, as well as the people in Jiangxia who surrounded the lake and reclaimed land, suffered heavy casualties.
Perhaps at that time the plague traveled up the Yangtze River, spreading all the way to Jiangzhou, Fujie, Jiangyang, Bodao and other places, and then spread to Bashu.
In addition to the two senior generals Tai Shici and Huo Jun in Liu Bei's army, many middle-level officers were also killed and injured, and a large number of low-level soldiers were also infected.
The only good news is that Shen Chen controlled it in time, did not allow the epidemic to expand again, and prevented a greater disaster from happening in time.
But Huo Jun and Tai Shici still died of illness.
But such is life.
Liu Bei was so sad that he returned to Shu County in person, buried the two men generously, treated their heirs kindly, and appointed Huang Zhong as a general to lead the army.
The plague in the 22nd year of Jian'an caused the last three princes in the late Han Dynasty to die down.
The plague was rampant in Cao Cao's rear, so that no one was farming the fields, and it became difficult to maintain food and grass. He had to abandon Xiliang and withdraw his troops back to Chang'an.
Liu Bei's situation is a little better, but not much better. The plague has caused everyone to be in danger, especially the frontline food and grass.
If the supply of grain and grass in Wudu is to be guaranteed, Jingzhou and Yizhou must continue to sail to the north to transport grain.
However, Huainan and Nanyang continued to import epidemics, and as the Yangtze River flowed into Bashu, Huo Jun and Tai Shici died of illness because of the plague spread from Jingzhou, resulting in the loss of about 2 of the [-] ambush soldiers placed in the rear.
In this situation, Liu Bei was also unable to compete for Liangzhou. He only arranged a few soldiers and officials in Wudu to govern, and withdrew his troops back to Hanzhong to accumulate food and grass to prepare for the next big war.
Sun Quan's situation is similar to that of Cao Cao.
Although Li Dian, the frontline general of the Cao army, also fell ill at this time, and died at the end of the year, only Xue Ti and Zhang Liao remained in Hefei.
Huang She, the commander of the Jiangxia navy, was also infected with the plague. Fortunately, before he died of illness, Zhang Zhongjing arrived in time and successfully rescued Huang She, while the Jiangxia navy and the Xiling defenders were half killed or injured.
But the surrounding enemies suffered heavy losses, and Sun Quan was not much better.
Huainan was the hardest-hit area. Lu Su and Lingtong died of the plague one after another. Four out of ten soldiers in the army were infected with the disease. The population under his rule also declined on a large scale, making it difficult for him to sustain himself. He retired to Jianye to recuperate.
For a while, people from all walks of life had already gathered momentum to prepare for the upcoming war, but due to the sudden outbreak of the plague, the war came to a standstill.
Cao Cao used Guo Jia's plan to attack Sun Quan first, so that Sun Quan could win Liu Bei's trust, and then lead Sun Quan to attack Jingzhou.
Sun Quan also took advantage of the trend and made a plan to attack Jingzhou.
And Liu Bei also used his tricks, deliberately fighting Cao Cao in Xiliang Pass, making the main force transfer to the north, and the illusion of Jingzhou's emptiness lured Sun Quan to attack.
But seeing that the stage had been set up and the actors were about to be in place, the sudden plague that swept across the world caught the three parties by surprise.
Even Shen Chen, who roughly knew the direction of history, how could he have predicted this kind of thing to happen?
After all, he has only read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and has never read any history books.
So he can only do his best.
Fortunately, after more than half a year of action, the plague in Jingyi was basically brought under control. By the middle of the 23rd year of Jian'an, the plague in the north had also gradually subsided.
Shen Chen sent many doctors to the north with prescriptions, like retrogrades, going to places where the epidemic occurred.
Everywhere they went, they took medicine to treat the plagued people. When asked by others, they said that Zhang Zhongjing, a great doctor in Nanyang, had found the right medicine.
The meaning of Zhongzi in ancient times is the meaning of the second son.
Shen Chen has an older brother named Shen Zhong, so Shen Chen took the name of Shen Zhongzi as a great Confucian for himself. The books written by him were circulated in the north, and they were all published with this name on the cover to indicate who the author was.
But who in the world doesn't know that Shen Zhongzi is Nanyang Shen Xiaoqing?When he was more than ten years old, he realized that the concept of "unity of knowledge and action" is respected by scholars all over the world.
Therefore, although the people of Cao and Wei were hostile to him, they have been respected by the people of Wei since then.
Of course Cao Cao didn't know what cultural invasion was.
There was no literary inquisition at that time, and it was common for great Confucian scholars to criticize the emperor’s government. Since the Han Dynasty, there has only been one literary inquisition, and that is Sima Qian’s grandson Yang Yun, who was executed in half because of the "Book of Baosun Huizong" that "Emperor Xuan saw and hated him".
Even the scourge of the party's imprisonment was not the literary prison, but the failure of the Tai students to follow the three monarchs into the palace to execute the eunuchs, which led to the emperor's massive suppression of foreign relatives and party members.
Kong Rong did not die from literary prison. He scolded Cao Cao too much in the early days, and he scolded Cao Cao every day and never saw Cao Cao tease him.
His death was because he belonged to the royalist veterans of Emperor Xiandi Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, which hindered Cao Cao's path to the government and the opposition. A large number of royalists were purged, and the remaining courtiers all became Cao Cao's minions.
Therefore, Shen Chen's scriptures were circulated in the north, and the book's analysis of the bottom line and the analysis of the pros and cons of the aristocratic families were also circulated in the north.
Even because of the criticism of the aristocratic family's confinement of land and raising slaves that caused the country's decline, it was considered by the aristocratic family to have harmed their interests, so they were prohibited from spreading it to the outside world or to the people.
However, the ruling class such as the Cao family recognized the words in his book very much. Cao Cao used to give his book to Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and others to read, silently write and recite the full text.
After all, Shen Chen said in the book that the interests of the highest ruling class and the people at the bottom are the same, and the ruler and the people at the bottom should complement each other. The king cannot do without the people, and the people cannot do without the king.
Only the bureaucratic class and the aristocratic class have the same interests, and they all choose to exploit the people for the benefit of their own family.
The final result of this going on can only be that the country is getting more and more declining. The highest ruling class, such as the Cao family of Cao Wei, the Liu family of Ji Han, and the Sun family of Soochow will lose their population, land, food and grass. Thus allowing the country to be annexed by foreign enemies.
Therefore, Cao Cao not only recognized Shen Chen's words, but also hoped that such changes could be carried out in the north.
It's a pity that he compromised with the Yingchuan and Yanzhou gentry in the early days, so that the power of the northern gentry flourished again, and the power of the aristocratic family was unprecedentedly strong.
Moreover, he still needs the strength of the aristocratic family to help him support the court and avoid worries.Like him, almost all the courtiers under the command of King Wei are from aristocratic families, and there is no way to follow Liu Bei to suppress the aristocratic families.
The same goes for Sun Quan.
Several defeats made Sun Quan have to rely more on the Jiangdong gentry.
Even the Sun family almost jointly ruled Wu with the aristocratic family.
The Jiangdong family clamored for Sun Quan to surrender to Cao Cao every day, which made Sun Quan a headache.
If Liu Bei hadn't suppressed the aristocratic family in the land of Jingyi and taken away their land and population, it is estimated that the Jiangdong gentry would have overthrown the Sun family and defected to Liu Bei instead of letting Sun Quan surrender to Cao Cao.
Therefore, Cao Cao and Sun Quan can only promote Shen Chen's theory, and want to popularize these theories that suppress the aristocratic family, so as to cultivate the children of poor families.
But he didn't dare to really suppress the aristocratic family.
As a result, Shen Chen's theory gradually spread and flourished. He has established a school of masters in Jingzhou, and is also revered as a great Confucian in other places.
For a time, the benevolence of doctors Shen Chen and Zhang Zhongjing spread everywhere in the north.
In the 22nd year of Jian'an, the epidemic gradually came to an end. It was not until the beginning of the 23rd year of Jian'an, when the epidemic situation in Jingyi was basically calmed down, that Liu Bei took the opportunity to send troops again and captured Xiliang.
Han Sui had died of illness at this time. Yan Xing rebelled against him before and defected to Xiahouyuan, but later Cao Cao's forces withdrew from Xiliang due to the epidemic. After Han Sui's death, no one occupied Xiliang.
As the first person among the three to quell the epidemic, Liu Bei took this opportunity and immediately sent Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Li Hei and others as generals to personally go to Tianshui to capture Liangzhou.
Wherever Ma Chao went, Xiliang watched the wind fall. Jia Xufazheng suggested that Liu Bei move the people of Liangzhou to Hanzhong. Liu Bei thought so, so he moved all the Han people from the three counties of Longxi, Jincheng, and Hanyang back to Hanzhong, leaving a large number of Qiang people.
Cao Cao also moved.
However, the places he occupied at that time were Hanyang County, Anding County, and Beidi County. Since Hanyang County belonged to the front line, Cao Liu was at war, and it was inconvenient to move people. Moreover, he also needed to recruit civilian husbands to transport food, so he did not move to Hanyang people at that time.
In Hanyang County at the end of Han Dynasty, that is, Jixian County, Tianshui County in Cao Wei Dynasty, there was a 17-year-old boy who lost his father when he was young and lived with his widowed mother. He liked Zheng Xuan's classics and Shen Chen's classics.
Historically, after he became an adult, the county considered his father's achievements, so he was recruited as an official in the county, and then called to work in Liangzhou, and he was given the official Zhonglang to join the army.
Now, because Liu Bei began to compete with Cao Cao for Xiliang, and after Cao Cao retreated, he captured Liangzhou, and moved to Hanzhong County with the large army.
The boy's surname is Jiang, his first name is Wei, and his courtesy name is Boyue.
It took Cao Cao more than a month to learn that Liangzhou had been occupied by Liu Bei, so he hurriedly prepared to send troops.
In the middle of the 23rd year of Jian'an, Cao Cao raised an army of [-], plus the [-] army guarding Guanzhong, a total of more than [-] horses, and marched to Xiliang.
The two sides confronted each other again in Jieting.
However, due to the fact that the epidemic situation in the north has not been completely calmed down, Cao Cao hastily raised his troops. After three months of confrontation, the follow-up food and grass failed to keep up in time, so he had to withdraw to Chang'an.
Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei and Ma Chao to pursue them, and ordered Guan Yu's soldiers to go out of the ramp to attack Cao Cao's army. They won the victory of Longguan and Meixian.
Cao Jun killed and wounded many troops in the two battles, and fled back to Jingzhao Yin and Zuo Fengyi in embarrassment. Occupied by Liu Bei.
For a while, Liu Bei's army gained momentum, and there was a tendency to annex Guanzhong in one fell swoop.
Taking advantage of this great victory, the group persuaded Liu Bei to become the king of Hanzhong, so Liu Bei took the throne in Hanzhong, and presented himself to Emperor Xian of Han for his approval.
Then set up a mandala in Mianyang, Hanzhong, with a radius of nine li, distributed in five directions, each with a banner and guard of honor, the three armies lined up neatly, accompanied by all the ministers solemnly, after reading the above list of all the ministers, crowned Liu Bei, proclaimed King of Hanzhong, and ruled the place. Based in Jiangzhou.
Among them, the king of Hanzhong persuaded Liu Xie, Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty, to join Liu Bei. Among them were General Pingxi Duting Hou Ma Chao, Zuo General Shi Lingzhong Army General Xu Jing, Ying Sima Pangxi, Yi Cao engaged in Zhonglang General Yi Zhonglang General Shooting, General Zhuge Liang of the Army Division, General Shen Chen of the Zhenjun, Guan Yu, the General of Han Shouting, Zhang Fei, the General of Xinting, Zhang Fei, General Huang Zhong of Jianwei, General Zhao Yun of the Yi Army, General Huang She of Hengbo, General Lai Gong of Zhenyuan, General Fa of Yangwu 120 people, including General Zheng and Xingye General Li Yan, were sent to Chendu, where they were captured by Han Emperor Liu Xie.
It's just that this letter of persuasion will of course not reach Liu Xie.
Now the nominal capital of Dahan is Chenliu County in Chenliu County, named Chendu.
But the actual capital is Ye County in Wei County, Jizhou, named Ye City.
So this letter soon reached Cao Cao's hands.
He knew that he couldn't stop Liu Bei, and he would also disgust Liu Bei, so he asked someone to write a scolding edict in Liu Xie's tone, stamped the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, and sent it back.
It's a pity that this edict had just arrived in Mei County and was torn up by Zhang Fei before it was sent to Hanzhong, so he pretended nothing happened.
So Liu Bei became the King of Hanzhong without the knowledge of Han Emperor Liu Xie.
Just like Liu Xie didn't want to designate Cao Cao as Duke of Wei and King of Wei at all, even if Sun Quan proclaimed himself King of Wu at this time, he no longer had the right to intervene.
For Liu Xie, this is not a kind of sadness.
But that's the truth.
It is also something that cannot be changed.
Liu Xie was controlled by Cao Cao, holding the emperor to order the princes, like a puppet.
In the early days, he was still useful, as he could help recruit talents, obtain a righteous name, and attract refugees and families to vote.
But when the three-legged confrontation pattern appeared at the end of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xie's usefulness became less and less, and Cao Cao's attitude towards him naturally plummeted, and he didn't take it seriously at all.
After Liu Bei ascended the throne as the King of Hanzhong, he enfeoffed all his officials.
He took Guan Yu as the former general, gave him a holiday, and sat in Guanzhong.Take Ma Chao as the rear general and sit in Wudu.Take Zhang Fei as the right general, give holidays, and sit in Liangzhou.Taking Shen Chen as General Zuo and Prince Taifu, he gave a holiday and took the seat in Nanyang.
At the same time, Ling Fazheng was the Prime Minister of You and Minister of Shangshuling, Zhuge Liang was the Prime Minister of the State, Pang Tong was the Prime Minister of the Central Committee, Jia Xu was the Royal Shifu and the Changshi of the King of Hanzhong, and Xu Shu was the Prime Minister of the Left and the Prefect of Hanzhong.
The other Grand Tutor Xu Jing, Tai Chang Lai Gong, Guang Luxun Huang Zhu, Shao Fu Zhang Song, Zong Zheng Liu Yan, Ting Wei Wang Mou, Tai Fu Zhou Lin, Grand Secretary Li Hui, Shang Shu Liu Ba, Yang Yi, Jiang Wan, Deng Zhi, servants Ma Liang, Liao Li and so on.
Afterwards came the governors of various places, the prefects of ten counties in Jingzhou except Guiyang County, and the prefects of [-] counties in the north of Yizhou, except for a few people such as Anhan General Mi Zhu, Jianwei General Huang Zhong, Yijun General Zhao Yun, Hengbo General Huang She, etc. Most of them have been re-sealed.
Even Wei Yan was conferred the title of General Zhenyuan and concurrently Prefect of Shangyong because of his meritorious service in pacifying Hanzhong.
However, although Mi Zhu, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Huang She and others were not entrusted with enfeoffments, they were rewarded.
The main reason is that when Mi Zhu was arranging shifts, he was above Xiangguo, only under Taifu Xu Jing, and his status was high.
However, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Huang She and others did not make much contribution, so they have not been promoted for the time being.
But the three of them are all generals guarding one side, higher than ordinary miscellaneous generals, and only below the four generals in the front, back, left, and right. They are basically part-time local prefects. They are considered high status among the generals, so they are not deliberately suppressed.
Like Cao Cao, Liu Bei enfeoffed his group of officials according to the standard system of princes and kings in the Western Han Dynasty.
In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang entrusted his heirs as vassal kings. These vassal kings formed their own kingdoms, and their officials basically copied the central court. It was not until the Han Jing Emperor that this situation changed.
Among them, it is particularly important to point out the issue of left and right prime ministers and prime ministers.
The prime minister and the prime minister are not one official position, but two, and in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the status of the prime minister was higher than that of the prime minister.
Because after Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he restored some of the Qin system, and established the Xiangguo and his deputy as the left and right prime ministers.
For example, during the confrontation between Chu and Han, the prime minister Han Xin, his left and right deputies were the right prime minister Cao Shen, and the left prime minister Chen Juan, who followed him to attack Xiang Yu.
After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Han Xin was granted the title of King of Chu, and Xiao He officially became the first Prime Minister after the establishment of the Han Dynasty. His left and right deputies were Fan Kuai, the left prime minister, and Yin Hui, the right prime minister.
Later, Lu Chan was the prime minister, the left and right deputy were the prime minister of the left to judge Shi Qi, and the prime minister of the right, Chen Ping.
Between Xiao He and Lu Chan, Cao Shen, Fu Kuan, Fan Kui, Zhou Bo and others all served as prime ministers, and they were all equipped with assistants such as left and right prime ministers.
There are not even two prime ministers on the left and right, but also a prime minister in the middle.Because Xiao He had been the prime minister of China, there was once a prime minister in the early Han Dynasty, and the three prime ministers controlled the situation.
In terms of status, the emperor is the largest, followed by the prime minister, and then the left and right prime ministers.
Therefore, in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, before the death of the last Xiangguo, Lu Chan, the Xiangguo was equivalent to the status of the later prime minister, with one person under [-], and the left and right prime ministers were equivalent to deputy prime ministers, who belonged to the Xiangguo's deputy.
Afterwards, the vassal kingdoms also set up Xiangguo and its deputy prime minister. After Emperor Hanwen succeeded to the throne, he issued an edict to let the vassal states revoke the position of Xiangguo and change the name of the prime minister to Xiangguo.
In the bronze inscriptions of the Han Dynasty unearthed in later generations, the state minister is generally called "Xiangbang", and the document records it as "Xiangguo", which should be changed by later generations to avoid the taboo of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty.
In other words, Liu Bei modeled on the princes and kings in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, and established a prime minister, with three prime ministers on the left and right.
In terms of status, Xu Jing has the highest status, followed by Mi Zhu, then Prime Minister Xiangguo and Jiuqing.
But they only have super high status and no real power.
In terms of real power, Zhuge Liang is the highest, followed by Fazheng, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu.
Originally, Liu Bei planned to appoint Jia Xu as Prime Minister Zuo because of his meritorious contributions, but Jia Xu insisted on refusing to do so, so he could only be the Yushi doctor in the end.
General side.
Guan Yu has the highest status, followed by Shen Chen.
There are four generals in the front, back, left, and right. The former general is the most honorable, the rear general is next, then the right general, and finally the left general.
Because the right is the most valuable in the Han Dynasty, the left general should have the lowest status.
But I can't stand Liu Bei as the left general.
In addition, Shen Chen also has the honorary title of civil servant of Prince Taifu, which has a super high status.
So in the ranking, if Shen Chen is in the list of civil servants, he should be ranked below Xu Jing and Mi Zhu, and above Jiuqing, with a rank of two thousand stones.
If in the list of military generals, it is only ranked below Guan Yu and above Ma Chao, Zhang Fei, Huang She, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, etc., it is the second place among the generals, and the status is still very high.
And in the 23rd year of Jian'an, Liu Bei had just repelled Cao Cao and took advantage of the trend to become King of Hanzhong.
At this time, the imperial physician Ling Jiben, Shaofu Geng Ji, Sizhi Weihuang and others in Chendu believed that Cao Cao was now far away in Guanzhong, and Cao's army was defeated and morale was low, so they should take the opportunity to initiate civil strife.
So they contacted Shen Chen in Nanyang, preparing to launch an attack at night, killing Wan Qian, Wang Xuan and others Cao Cao placed in Chendu to guard Liu Xie. Enter Chendu.
Shen Chen had watched the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so he knew about this scene, but he knew that Yoshimoto, Geng Ji and others took it for granted.
Because Cao Cao deployed heavy troops in Chendu, there are still 10 troops from Cao Hong in Yingchuan Runan and other places.
Even if Gibbon and the others succeeded, Shen Chen would send troops to attack Yingchuan immediately, and they would not be able to kill Chen Du in a short time. At that time, Chen Du's soldiers and horses could easily wipe them out.
So Shen Chen replied immediately, hoping that they would not act rashly for the time being, and even if they wanted to do something, they should find out the specific situation, such as all the arrangements of Cao Jun in Chendu, who could control some soldiers and horses by killing them, and so on.
But Gibbon and the others had made up their minds and insisted on taking action. Fortunately, they listened to the persuasion and did not immediately start rashly. Instead, they cooperated with Shen Chen's spies in Chendu and began to inquire about Cao Jun's situation in Chendu.
According to their intelligence, Cao Jun has 3 to [-] horses in Chen. The commander is Yan Kuang, a general of Diannong Zhonglang, who is Cao Hong's subordinate. He is mainly responsible for grain and grass in Henan and other places, and transports grain to Cao Hong.
It is definitely not possible to kill Yan Kuang and control the Diannong army.
Because Yan Kuang stayed in the heavily guarded barracks every day, they basically had no ability to fight in.
The people who actually controlled the city defense of Chendu, the imperial palace guards, and thousands of soldiers at each city gate were Cao Cao's Wei Wangchang Shi Wanqian and Shangshu Wangxuan.
In history, it was Wang Bi, but Wang Bi was beheaded by Shen Chen, so like Wang Bi, Wan Qian, who was born as Sikong Changshi in his early years, has become the actual controller of Chen Du.
Gibbon and the others believed that if they could quickly kill Wan Qian and Wang Xuan and control the gate of Chen Du's palace, they would be able to resist Yan Kuang's attack.
When Cao Hong gets the news, he will definitely turn pale with shock and send troops back to Chen Du to suppress the rebellion.
At this time, as long as Shen Chen's army is dispatched to attack Chen Du immediately, Cao Hong, Yan Kuang and others will surely be taken down in one fell swoop.
Only the plan was a complete suicide plan.
Because it was stated in the letter to Shen Chen that the only soldiers they could mobilize were more than a thousand domestic slaves. Even with the spies and spies that Shen Chen had deployed in Chendu for many years, there were less than 2000.
With this few people, it is enough to defend against [-] to [-] Diannong troops, let alone Cao Hong's main force of [-].
Runan is near and Nanyang is far away. When Shen Chen arrives, it is estimated that Gibbon's corpses will be cold, and it is impossible to survive until the arrival of Nanyang reinforcements.
Therefore, the entire rebellion plot was very sloppy, and Gibbon's strength was very limited, and they couldn't make any waves at all.
But Gibbon and others wrote back saying that they are not afraid of death, and they are willing to die to show their ambitions.
Shen Chen could only helplessly hope that their action would take a little longer, and he would do it when he was fully prepared.
no way.
Advised and persuaded.
What can I do if I can't be persuaded?
But this is not the charm of the righteous men since the Qin and Han Dynasties.
For righteousness, Wu Fu assassinated Dong Zhuo.
There is Dong Chengmou's clothes belt edict.
Empress Fu Mitu assassinated Cao Cao.
In the end, Ji Ben, Geng Ji, Wei Huang, Jin Yi and others were willing to die generously.
Although Shen Chen knew that their death was meaningless, he couldn't chill the hearts of the righteous, so he actively prepared to respond.
In autumn and September in the second half of the 23rd year of Jian'an, Yoshimoto saw his opportunity, because in a few days, it was the time when they observed that Yan Kuang was going to transport a large amount of grain to the front line of Yingchuan.
At this time, Chen Du was relatively empty. There were only thousands of guards at the palace gate guarding Liu Xie, soldiers at the city gate, and thousands of Diannong troops outside the city. There were not many people.
Therefore, Gibbon immediately sent someone to send a message to Shen Chen's spies in Chendu, asking them to send a message to Shen Chen immediately to prepare for action.
When Shen Chen got the news, he responded immediately, and ordered Wenpin to lead 5000 men to guard Danshui to prevent Cao Jun from entering Nanyang from Wuguan to support Cao Hong.He also personally led the army, with Gan Ning, Zhang Xiu, and Lu Chang as his generals, with an army of [-], and marched northward to the Central Plains.
It's just that no one can think of it.
The wheel of history has changed once again.
Originally, this rebellion was just a small-scale riot and did not cause a sensation.
But when Shen Chen sent troops, the nature changed.
Overnight, the three parties moved together, and they picked up the plan that the three parties had put down due to the epidemic.
Historically, the struggle for hegemony among the Three Kingdoms ended with Ji Han destroying Soochow and opposing Cao Wei from north to south.
It is said in history that the North-South confrontation began.
