Liu Yuan, the character Yuanhai, his father often haunted various Three Kingdoms games, the famous Xiongnu Zuoxian King Liu Bao. As early as the Cao Wei period, Liu Yuan had been sent to Luoyang by Liu Bao, and the years of being a proton were not good, but Liu Yuan learned more Han knowledge during this time and befriended the Han bureaucrat Wang Hun and so on.
Sima Zhao and Sima Yan's father and son were very fond of Liu Yuan, and often recruited him privately into the palace to chat, and Sima Yan even planned to hand over the great cause of Wu to Liu Yuan, but later because of the opposition of the chancellor, this matter became a thorn in Liu Yuan's heart.
In the years of the Western Jin Dynasty, in order to protect himself, Liu Yuan often showed the appearance of loyalty, but it was difficult to escape sima you's eyes, and the most talented prince of the Western Jin Empire repeatedly advised Sima Yan to kill Liu Yuan, but was blocked by Wang Hun, and Sima Yan, who lacked determination, let Liu Yuan go again and again.

After Liu Bao's death, Liu Yuan was able to return to the Xiongnu to inherit the throne of Zuo Xian, at this time the Western Jin Empire had entered the period of his foreign relative Yang Jun, Yang Jun in order to win Liu Yuan over, he was made the governor of the five xiongnu, at this time Liu Yuan's power was not strong, and could only shrink and be enfeoffed, until the rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty began, Liu Yuan's ambitions began to expand.
However, there was still one person among the eight kings who could suppress Liu Yuan's Xiongnu to death, that is, Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu stationed in Yicheng, Sima Ying was a generous man, lacked in ingenuity, but had hundreds of thousands of troops, which was the greatest threat to Liu Yuan, in order to make Sima Ying believe in his loyalty, Liu Yuan left the Xiongnu and rushed to Yicheng to become the general of Xingning Shuo under Sima Ying.
Huns
At this time, there was already an undercurrent within the Xiongnu, and shortly after Liu Yuan's departure, Liu Yuan's uncle Liu Xuan secretly convened the Five Xiongnu General Assembly, elected Liu Yuan as the Xiongnu's great danyu, and stepped up planning to revive the Xiongnu.
Just when Liu Yuan was thinking about how to weaken Sima Ying and return to the Xiongnu safely, Sima Ying, who had always been honest and responsible, inflated himself, not only giving himself the identity of an imperial brother, but also deposing the crown prince, for which Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, attacked Sima Ying and was defeated.
Sima Yue's military defeat made Sima Ying even more lawless, but at this time, the Xianbei Hu people located in the north of Sima Ying were already ready to move, and under the heavy trust of Sima Yue's younger brother, the Anbei general Wang Jun, with Xianbei and other Hu people, suddenly went south and attacked Yecheng directly, and Sima Ying rushed to meet the battle, but was defeated and wanted to escape.
At this time, Liu Yuan resolutely stood up and went all out to persuade Sima Ying to let him return to the Xiongnu, and promised to come to the rescue of Sima Ying with the soldiers and horses of the five Xiongnu troops, sima Ying was overjoyed, quickly released Liu Yuan back, and gave him the title of Beidan Yu.
Sima Ying
Liu Yuan, who returned to Zuo Guocheng, left Sima Ying's life and death behind, and in order to be able to justifiably go south, he honored Liu Chan, the lord of Shu, as the Emperor of Xiaohuai, and established the Han regime under the banner of restoring the Han Dynasty, Liu Yuan proclaimed himself the King of Han, and the first regime of the Sixteen Kingdoms was born.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > attack luoyang, Liu Yuan's last attempt</h1>
Liu Yuan's sudden self-reliance did not affect the infighting among the Western Jin governments, and when the infighting subsided slightly, Ma Teng of the Dongying Company also began to deal with Liu Yuan's problems, and the general Nie Xuan led a large army to conquer the Xiongnu, hoping to solve Liu Yuan in the first world war and restore the prestige of the Western Jin Dynasty in the eyes of the Xiongnu.
Unfortunately, in the Battle of Daling, the majesty of the Western Jin Dynasty was gone, and the Xiongnu were more certain, at this time the Western Jin Dynasty was already in vain, Liu Yuan took advantage of the situation to occupy Taiyuan and other places, and then attacked Xianbei and incorporated all the surrounding Hu people under his command.
With the end of the Rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty, Liu Yuan's plan to attack the Western Jin Dynasty in an all-round way had also been initiated, and he attacked Luoyang with his fifth son Liu Cong and the general Wang Mi as the vanguard, and Liu Yao and others as backups, and began a war to fully annex the Western Jin Dynasty.
The King of the East Sea defended against Liu Yuan
Liu Cong's march was very smooth, Sima Yue's reinforcements collapsed in one battle, and they were not opponents of the Xiongnu at all, but when attacking Hongnong, northwest of Luoyang, they encountered a sneak attack by Hongnong Taishou Yuanyan, Liu Cong tasted defeat for the first time, and in the subsequent march, Liu Cong was defeated again, the general Hu Yanhao was killed, Liu Yuan was extremely disappointed, gave up the plan to attack Luoyang, retreated to Pingyang, and looked forward to the next attack.
Just when Liu Yuan was waiting for the Western Jin Dynasty to revolt again, the disease struck, and Liu Yuan could not resist and died.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Liu Cong, is a man is a ghost or a demon</h1>
After Liu Yuan's death, his son Liu He took the throne, Liu He was the second emperor in history to open the killing chamber, for his own brother, Liu He only sent a butcher knife, seeing that he was about to kill himself, Liu Cong finally reversed, how is a prince living in the imperial palace an opponent of a general who has been fighting outside for many years, it was not long before Liu He was killed, Liu Cong smoothly took over the Jiangshan left by Liu Yuan.
Liu Cong preferred aggression more than Liu Yuan, and Luoyang was still Liu Cong's first choice, and when Shi Le and others besieged Luoyang, only Liu Kun was the western Jin dynasty to take the lead in rescue, while Sima Yue, who controlled the power of the Western Jin Dynasty, was worried that the princes of other regions would take advantage of the situation to seize power in Luoyang, so he completely rejected Liu Kun's suggestion.
In this way, Liu Cong's army besieging Luoyang was completely unattended, and luoyang city was also suffering from famine and plague, and seeing that the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty was about to be lost to the hands of the enemy, Sima Yue, the king of the Eastern Sea, was careful.
He took the only 40,000 elite soldiers left in Luoyang City, and under the banner of attacking Shi Le, he ran out of the city, leaving Emperor Huai of Jin alone in the wind.
Emperor Sima Of Jin
Emperor Huai of Jin hated it, he hated Sima Yue, so he organized several people and horses to plan to attack Sima Yue, Sima Yue heard about it, he was angry and sad, and it didn't take long for him to die of illness, Sima Yue died, the dragons were leaderless, and the forty thousand elite soldiers he brought out were like headless flies, and in the blink of an eye, they were destroyed by Shi Le, and all fifty Sima Zong's chambers were buried under the iron hooves of the Xiongnu.
Sima Yue was defeated, and Liu Cong's general Hu Yanyan invaded luoyang city, captured Sima Chi, the emperor of Jinhuai, who was planning to flee, and the arsonists snatched the treasures and beauties of Luoyang City, killed the crown prince Sima Yi and 30,000 other clan ministers, excavated the tombs of Sima Yan and other imperial families, and burned Luoyang City.
Liu Cong, who was in Pingyang, finally waited for the Chuanguo Yuxi that he was looking forward to day and night, and along with the Chuanguo Yuxi, he also sent the captured Emperor Huai of Jin and the empress dowager of Emperor Hui of Jin, the Yang clan, who was an empress, must have suffered indescribable humiliation, and sima Chi, the emperor of Jinhuai, had only one end, and died.
The news of The killing of Emperor Huai of Jin reached Chang'an, and Sima Yi, the thirteen-year-old son of Sima Ke, the King of Wu, was elected as the new emperor of the Jin dynasty, and Liu Cong, of course, would not allow the Western Jin Dynasty to continue to exist, and he sent the general Liu Yao to begin attacking Chang'an.
Send troops to Chang'an
During the attack on Chang'an, Liu Cong did all kinds of bad things in Pingyang, he wantonly killed courtiers, occupied other people's wives, forced his brothers to die, and even spared his own stepmother.
When Sima Ye surrendered Kaesong, the Western Jin Empire came to the final stage, and only Sima Rui, who was in Langya, Shandong Province, calmly handled it under the advice of Wang Dao, did not ask questions, and lived his own small life.
< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > good and evil will eventually be rewarded, and Liu Hannan will flee to exterminate the end</h1>
After the destruction of the Western Jin Dynasty, Liu Cong's little life was not good, and the emperor's brother Liu Qi became a lingering nightmare, in order to eliminate Liu Qi, he forced the princes who stayed in Pingyang and Had a very good relationship with Liu Qi when protons mistakenly trapped Liu Qi to plot rebellion, and then began a wave of crazy killing.
Liu Qi was killed, the princes of the Qiang people were also killed, and the Hu people who had originally submitted to Liu Cong's command began to deviate from Germany, and Liu Cong's years did not have much time left, in the last days, Liu Cong took Liu Yao as the Grand Sima and assisted the crown prince Liu Cang.
Liu Cang, who was much worse than his father Liu Cong in military ability, was all the way ahead on the road of absurdity, and not long after succeeding to the throne, Liu Cang began to make up his mind about his mothers and queens, and the concubines left by Liu Cong became the objects of Liu Cang's absurdity in the middle of the night.
Liu Cang was absurd
And one of the more heinous things that Liu Cang did was to be seduced by the traitor Jin Zhun and kill the Prince of Liu overnight.
In this incident, there was only one beneficiary, that is, Jin Zhun, who had lost the prince's protection of Liu Cang, and no longer had any qualifications to break His wrist with Jin Zhun.
In September 318, Jin Zhun struck, first cutting off Liu Yue's head, and then pulling all the Liu clan in Pingyang City, men, women and children, to Dongshikou.
Killing the Liu clan, Jin Zhun was not addicted, he dug out the tombs of Liu Yuan and Liu Cong's father and son, took Liu Cong out of the grave, cut off Liu Cong's head, and burned the Liu Clan Temple.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the game between former Zhao and Later Zhao, Liu Yao and Shi Le</h1>
Jin Zhun usurped the throne, and the already suspicious general Shi Le finally sent troops, and liu Yao, the grand sima stationed in Chang'an, also ran towards Pingyang with his soldiers and horses, at this time, Liu Han's regime, Liu Yuan's family had been killed, and only the relationship between Liu Yao and Liu Yuan, a subordinate of the foreign clan, was barely closer, so Liu Yao began to claim the title of emperor.
The closest to Pingyang was Shi Le's army, and Jin Zhun's cousin Jin Ming, after receiving Liu Yao's promise, decisively killed Jin Zhun and led his troops to surrender to Liu Yao, who was hundreds of miles away, which made Shi Le very angry, so he burned the city of Pingyang, and the capital of Liu Han was reduced to ashes.
Jin Ming, who surrendered to Liu Yao, did not wait for a good result, under Liu Yao's instructions, all those surnamed Jin were not left, all were killed, and after killing the entire Jin clan, Liu Yao, who thought that he could not take Shi Le, did not stay too long, and returned to Chang'an with his soldiers and horses, changing the name of the country from Han to Zhao, and after Shi Le returned to the fiefdom, he also called himself the King of Zhao.
Former Zhao (Han founded by Liu Yuan)
Since the unification of Qin Shi Huang, in addition to the massacre of the Ying clan by Qin II Hu Hai, there has never been such a large-scale massacre in the two Han Dynasties and Wei and Jin, Liu Cang has made a good start, and this kind of self-confidence and panic that originated from the emperor's heart is extremely easy to be used by the powerful ministers, which is also the beginning of the decline of the dynasty.
Liu Yuan established the Liu Han regime, is the first regime of the Sixteen Kingdoms, in the hands of his son Liu Cong, successively captured two Western Jin emperors, completed the final killing of the Western Jin Dynasty, from the perspective of changing dynasties, it has a certain merit, but Liu Cong and his son Liu Cang are absurd and tyrannical, bringing a regime that was originally in the ascending period into the abyss, so that the whole clan was destroyed, if Liu Yuanquan knew about it, I am afraid that he would also resent this father and son.
