It's quite difficult to borrow someone else's team to avenge his father's murder, right? But there is one person who really did it, and he is Liu Ju, the son of Liu Bi, the king of Wu in the Western Han Dynasty.
At the beginning, when the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms was put down, Liu Ju, the son of King Wu, fled to Minyue, and he resented Dongou for booby-trapping his father Liu Bi, so he often instigated Minyue to attack Dongou. Who would have thought that the king of Minyue really let him fool him, and really sent troops to surround the capital of Dongou City.
Dongou saw that Min Yue was menacing, and hurriedly sent someone to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for help.
At this time, it was 138 BC, and Emperor Wu, who had just ascended the throne for three years, could not decide whether to send troops. Ask Tian Wei's opinion. Tian Wei said: It is very common for the Yue people to attack each other, they have rebelled many times, and the rebellion of Guishun is often uncertain, since the Qin Dynasty, the Central Plains has not regarded them as subjects of the imperial court, and it is not worth mobilizing the people to rescue them.
Zhuang Zhu was the first batch of talents selected by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he said: "The special force cannot be saved, and virtue cannot be overcome." Cheng Neng, why abandon it! And Qin raised Xianyang and abandoned it, why do you want to go further! Now a small country is in a state of poverty and poverty, and the Son of Heaven does not save it, Shang An complained;
Zhuang Zhu is worthy of being the person chosen by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and every word he says pierces Emperor Wu's heart. If the national strength can bear it, why don't small countries go to ask for help? Speaking of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty even lost its own capital Xianyang in the end, what is there to learn from? Especially the last sentence, if we do not go to the rescue, how can we maintain the dignity of Your Majesty ruling over all nations?
After Emperor Wu heard this, he said that this Tian Wei's insight is not enough to discuss national affairs with me.
However, Emperor Wu considered that he had just become an emperor and did not want to use the tiger talisman to levy the army of the county to fight. So he sent Zhuang Zhu to take the emperor's talisman to dispatch the army of Huiji County.
The county guard of Huiji County originally wanted not to send troops to Zhuang Zhu according to the system of not sending troops if he didn't see the tiger charm. Standing in the position of the county guard of Huiji, he really didn't know whether this Zhuang Zhu was true or false, and he didn't dare to send troops. Zhuang Zhu had a plan, raised his sword and killed a Sima official next to him, and quietly explained to the county guard that Emperor Wu did not want to use the tiger talisman to transfer troops, one soldier and one salute, and finally succeeded in sending troops and crossed the sea to relieve the siege of Dongou Kingdom.
What was the outcome of the battle? Before the Han army arrived, Minyue heard the news and withdrew its troops. The king of Dongou asked the whole clan to move to the Central Plains and return to the imperial court. The imperial court soon granted their request, and the king of Dongou led all his troops to move to the Central Plains, and the imperial court settled them between the Yangtze River and the Huai River.
From this incident, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's ambition was ignited, and since then, he has expanded his territory all the way, subdued the frontier, and achieved his lifelong hegemony.
