Chapter 100
On October 28, the fifth year of Shengtong, a total of 30 noble families, headed by eight surnames: Xi, Jiang, Hong, Zhong, Fan, Cui, Pei, Hong, and Long, joined forces with the three kings of Li, Xin and Cheng to gather [-] Tens of thousands of troops were mobilized from Jiangdu to "Qingjun's side", and the world was shocked.

The three kings jointly issued a proclamation: "We, the grandson of Emperor Sejongwu, the son of Emperor Mu Zonghuai, and close relatives of the country, have only known how to abide by the law since we were granted the title. Now that the young master has taken the throne, he trusts traitors, confuses the government, slaughters hundreds of officials, and sells off his titles. Oppressing the victims and ruining lives.

We are well aware of the difficulties of Taizu and Taizong, the difficulties of Emperor Shizong and Emperor Muzong in the revival, and the feudal kings who dominated the world. How can we turn a blind eye and let the traitors trample the country and destroy the country?The emperor, the emperor, and the queen have learned from each other.

"Ancestor's Instructions" says: "There are no honest ministers in the dynasty, and there are evil spirits within. We must train troops to fight against them, so as to clear away the evil on the side of the king." '

Nowadays, disaster has forced me to surrender. The traitor wants to act as an assassin and alienate the relationship between the emperor and the brothers, so I have no choice but to do it.Righteousness and treachery are irreconcilable, and one must abide by Heaven's instructions to bring peace to the country. The gods of heaven and earth will draw their attention to their hearts. "

At the same time, Emperor Shengtong issued an edict to refute him as a traitor, and told King Qin clearly: "The suffering of nobles and nobles in the world has been going on for a long time, separatizing localities, exploiting the people, embezzling national funds, and supporting bandits.

Now I cannot bear the suffering of the people and want to withdraw, but I am being slandered instead. It is ridiculous!Huasun Zhou was a veteran of three dynasties. He was not seen as a traitor during the reigns of Emperor Shizong and Mu Zong. Is it true that he is a traitor in my current dynasty?

Again, my kings, when the traitors lobbied you, I repeatedly issued edicts and exhorted you with sincere words, but you did not care about brotherhood, did not care about the safety of the country, were greedy for profit, insisted on rebellion, and brought trouble to the world!
Now that the rebels have opened their eyes, I ask how many soldiers and horses you have.The rebels have carried you out to confuse the world.You idiots like you, instead of realizing it, are complacent, thinking that by conquering the capital, you can take my place?
How can He De He Neng?

The rebels want to imitate the rebellion of the three kings, but I am not the Xizong.You are not the king of that time either.Furthermore, if there is one big seat, how can you all share it equally?So, when will the chaos stop!
The severe drought in the north has just passed, but the famine has not stopped. Autumn and winter have entered again, and we are suffering from hunger and cold.My purchase of grain for disaster relief has not yet been implemented, and you have started to use weapons again.What are the people to blame?Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

I am warning you and all the thieves that if you stop your evil deeds at this time and raise the flag to surrender, I will still be merciful and lenient.If you persist in your stubbornness, you will vow to be an enemy of me, our ancestors and the country, and all the people in the world. Everyone can punish you, and the world will punish you together! "

Seeing Li Shun calling them "dog heads and pig brains", the fourth child, Li Zhao, angrily tore up the edict: "Shuzi, how dare you bully me like this?"

The eldest brother Li Hao and the second child Li Bing did not react to this. They looked at each other. In fact, Li Shun's words really got into their hearts. How many soldiers and horses are there?
Except for the one or two thousand guards in the palace, they really have no strength.Behind Lao Si is the support of his mother clan, the Long family, and the demon cultivators brought by Hu Minyi.

They seemed to be the foil in this rebellion.Li Hao was invited by the Jiang Hong family, and Li Bing was forced by the Xi family. However, they only regarded themselves as puppets and would not listen to them at all.Not to mention that the other five companies all support the fourth child.

It turned out that everything was doomed, and they were unwilling to accept it. In addition to these eight great noble families, there were also twenty small noble families.Although their respective strengths are weak, they are a considerable force when combined. The two want to gain the support of these people.So, I went for a walk in a grand manner, but was disappointed.Now everyone is in a wait-and-see mode. Who will take a stand in advance?

The struggle between nobles also revolves around the eight families headed by them.Among the six northern provinces, the Xi family dominates the two northwest provinces, which are the farthest from the capital. They have strong soldiers and horses. The Jiang and Hong families divide the central part, one in the west and the other in the east.The remaining five families are crowded in the two eastern provinces, and the remaining twenty families dominate the cracks.

Li Shun was scolding the two of them, one with a dog head and the other with a pig head.He can still understand the fourth child's rebellion.When these two got involved, he was very puzzled.The eldest son's mother's family, the Ye family, is in Jiangbei and belongs to the south, so it cannot support him.The second child's mother's family, the Wang family, is located in the east of Hedong. It does belong to the north, but it has no military power.

On November [-]st, at the great court meeting, Li Shun still sat high on the dragon throne, and all the officials knelt down and shouted long live the mountain.Li Shunying stared at the officials and remained silent. The whole hall was silent and silent.The rebels were divided into three groups: east, middle, and west, heading toward the capital.Along the way, states and counties fell one after another, and some courageous local officials died on the spot.

"Why don't you speak, dear ladies?"

Hua Jingrong stepped forward and said, "I think the emperor should issue an edict to punish himself and severely punish our cabinet ministers, so as to eliminate the excuse for rebels to raise troops."

Li Shun glanced at him and said directly: "Hua Aiqing, there is no need to test me. I am incompatible with the traitors and will never sacrifice you."

Hua Jingrong seemed to have made up his mind: "I am not trying to test the emperor, I am actually speaking from the bottom of my heart. I am an old man and is of no use to the country. If we can exchange our lives for the stability of the country, it will be a great good." "

"I said it! I and the rebels are at odds with each other! Liu Feixiong will take out the battle report from the past few days and let them hear it!"

Liu Feixiong took the battle report handed over and read with tears: "On the 29th of last month, Xunzhou Magistrate Shang Jia led the soldiers and civilians to defend Xunzhou City for seven days and seven nights. After the rebels broke through the city, they buried his family alive and massacred the entire family. City. The magistrate of Yanbian County Ma Zheng defended for two days, but the city was broken, and he committed suicide. Xiang Fang, the magistrate of Yanzhou, defended for five days, and the city was broken. He burned himself in the government office..."

"Within ten days, the rebels captured seventeen counties in three states. Two magistrates died for their country and ten magistrates were killed. I just thought that I still have loyal ministers in Dayin. Before his death, Fang Jixiang scolded the rebels and said : 'Burn your bones to prove yourself, and you are not allowed to rebel against thieves and insult your loyal bones.' Every time I see this, my heart is cut like a knife. The loyal ministers are dead, but the scum who opened the door to offer the city are still alive."

"According to my decree, all local officials who insist on refusing to retreat will be buried with the courtesy of national officials and build Zhongliang Temple. In addition, the rebels are extremely vicious and slaughter the people. The chief culprits are those nobles. I will not accept the surrender of nobles. If any are captured, they will be executed on the spot! Including the three anti-kings!

I heard that Mazhi County could have been able to hold on for a few more days, but it was Li Lu who pretended to surrender and tricked him into opening the city gate.From the day they betrayed me, they were no longer relatives of the emperor, nor descendants of Taizu and Shijong!Everyone can kill them. If any of the soldiers or civilians can obtain the heads of these traitors, I will ban them from ten thousand households! "

Li Shun's voice echoed in the hall.He is not a certain great-grandson, but everyone else has rebelled. He still has to take care of the royal uncle-nephew relationship, and in the end he becomes a barbecue.A rebel is a rebel!There is no family affection in Tianjia!

Li Shun had already sent 1000 military battalion soldiers out of Gyeonggi to help surrounding states and counties defend themselves.Thirty thousand cavalry troops were also mobilized from important towns in the north to support the capital.Dayin's main border threat is the Ersa people in the northwest. They are strong and strong. Li Shun's previous estimate was too conservative. They are probably all monsters.Because their tribe was formed [-] years ago.

For those people in the northern grasslands and the mountains and forests of the northeast, the Sejong Dynasty carried out a comprehensive eradication of them with thunderous force. It has long been overdue. It is feasible to mobilize some troops appropriately.
