In September 23 AD, the Green Forest rebel army invaded Chang'an (present-day Xi'an), and there was a riot in the city, and the sixty-eight-year-old Wang Mang was killed at Weiyang Palace, and the rebel army found the Jade Seal of chuanguo from his corpse and presented it to the first emperor Liu Xuan.
In September 25, the Chimei rebel army invaded Chang'an, and Liu Xuan was killed. Liu Xiu, the Emperor Guangwu of Han, who was proclaimed emperor in Hebei, took the opportunity to go south, attacked Luoyang, and set the capital here, which was the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Later, the young emperor Liu Penzi (the successor of the First Emperor) in Chang'an surrendered to Liu Xiu, and the imperial seal was returned to Liu Xiu.
Time is like an arrow, the years are like shuttles, and in the blink of an eye, it is 189 AD, which became a turning point in the decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty. After suffering a heavy blow from the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Zhangjiao, the Han Ling Emperor died, and under the operation of his wife Empress He, his fourteen-year-old son Liu Wei succeeded to the throne as the Young Emperor, while Empress He obeyed the government and appointed her brother He Jin as a general to assist the government. The eunuchs of the Ten Standing Eunuchs, led by Jian Shuo, did not want Liu Xie to be emperor, and the ideal emperor in their hearts was Liu Xie, the clever and clever prince. As a result, a fierce conflict broke out between the eunuchs represented by the Ten Constant Attendants and the foreign relatives led by Empress He, and Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and the officials of the palace were all involved, and the result was that He Jin was killed, Jian Shuo was also killed, and the palace was in chaos. At the end of August of that year, several eunuchs fled the palace in a hurry with Liu Jie, Liu Xie, and dozens of other people, because in a hurry, the six imperial seals used by the emperor were not carried with them. Later, when the Rebellion of the Ten Constant Attendants subsided, Liu Xie and Liu Jie returned to the palace under the escort of Dong Zhuo, and they found that the other five emperors were all there, but the only Imperial Jade Seal was missing, and the entire luoyang city was not found.
Because the eunuchs and their foreign relatives were both defeated and killed in the infighting, in September of that year, Dong Zhuo, who had absolute power in the Eastern Han Dynasty, deposed the young emperor Liu Xie, and established the nine-year-old Liu Xie as a puppet emperor, for the sake of The Han Emperor; in order to get rid of the troubles and ensure that his position of power was stable, Dong Zhuo killed Liu Zhuo and his old mother Empress He. In November, Dong Zhuo was promoted to Xiangguo, and he sold his reputation and promoted a large number of celebrities to become officials such as Jiuqing, Assassin Shi, and Taishou; he himself was even more defiled and chaotic, building beautiful docks and palace houses, looting treasures, and wantonly making noises; in order to establish his authority, he brutally suppressed officials and people who did not cooperate with him by beheading and chopping off their feet, digging out their eyes and hearts, and drinking human blood and peeling people's skins, and killing innocents indiscriminately, and no one in history could surpass him in the cruelty of his methods.
Because Dong Zhuo deposed the orthodox emperor and established himself on his own, he violated the taboo of the people of the country "being ordained by heaven", and the princes throughout the country rebelled one after another to attack Dong Zhuo. The first to rebel against Dong Zhuo were Guandong Zhou Commandery ,which were Yuan Shao of Bohai Commandery , Yuan Shao 'son Yuan Shao , Yuan Shao 's cousin General Yuan Shu ( 袁術 ) , Jizhou Mu Hanfu ( 冀州 ) , Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling , Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai ( 兖州刺史伷 ) , Chen Liu Taishou Zhang Miao ( 邈 ) , Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao ( 廣陵太守张超 ) , Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang ( Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang , Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi , and Dong Commandery Taishou Qiao Mao . In the same year, Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha, raised an army against Dong Zhuo, led his troops to Luyang, joined forces with Yuan Shu, and became a general accepted by Yuan Shu, whose army was the bravest and most warlike in the Kwantung Army. With Yuan Shao as its ally, the Army was at Hanoi (present-day southwest of Wuzhi, Henan), Yingchuan (present-day Yu County, Henan), ChenLiu Commandery (present-day Yanjin County, Henan), and Luyang (present-day Lushan, Henan), but all feared Dong Zhuo's might and did not dare to attack, only Cao Cao, who was under Zhang Mi at the time, led his troops to attack Dong Zhuo, only to be beaten and abandoned in armor and returned in a big defeat.
In February 191, Sun Jian led his troops to defeat Dong Zhuo's army and retake Luoyang. Dong Zhuo had already set fire to luoyang when he retreated, and Sun Jian led his army to garrison the city after extinguishing the embers. On this night, when the stars and moons were shining, Sun Jian sat in the open air according to his sword, and suddenly a soldier came to report that he had found a well south of Luoyang City, and from time to time five colors of light appeared, and Sun Jian lit a torch and went down to the well to salvage it. After some tossing, the sergeant retrieved the corpse of a palace maid, and a luxurious bag hung around the neck of the corpse, and inside the bag was a small scarlet box, locked with a gold lock. Sun Jian opened the small box and looked at it, it turned out to be a jade seal: four inches in circumference, engraved with five dragons to cross the button; a corner was also dropped next to it, and it was completed with gold and gold inlays; on it was engraved the eight-character seal text: "Ordered by heaven, that is, Shou Yongchang." "It turned out that the jade seal that had been lost due to the Rebellion of the Ten Constant Attendants was actually in the well!" Sun Jian was ecstatic, his heart was beating suddenly, and he quickly went to his subordinates to ask what to do next. Cheng Pu, the heavy minister, first said "Congratulations to the Lord, He Xi to the Lord", and then gave Sun Jian an analysis: "The Han Room has fallen, when there is a great chaos today, the princes are rising, and now everyone is crusading against Dong Zhuo, but during this time you can also see clearly, although it is a coalition army, but they all preserve their strength, not really to fight against Dong Zhuo, Kuang Fu Han Room." In my opinion, the leaders of this alliance are all pregnant with ghosts, and they must not last long. The lord has been running Jiangdong for many years, where the people are rich, the people support you, and we have the danger of the Yangtze River, it can be said that the heavens and the earth are favorable to the people; today the heavens give the lord the jade seal of the country, which is to replace the Han room and establish a new dynasty! Sun Jian listened deeply to his opinion, and his subordinates also echoed, Sun Jian asked everyone to keep the matter of obtaining the imperial jade seal confidential, and decided to bid farewell to the coalition army and return to Jiangdong with the jade seal.
The next day, when Sun Jian went to Yuan Shao's camp to discuss the matter, he said that the old mother of the family was seriously ill and wanted to return to Jiangdong, and Yuan Shao said bluntly: "I don't think it is the old mother of Wentai (Sun Jianzi) who is sick, but the illness of the Chuanguo Yuxi yourself, right?" It turned out that There were Yuan Shao's cronies in Sun Jian's army, and he told Yuan Shao about Sun Jian's obtaining the Jade Seal that night. Sun Jian was shocked, few people knew about this, how could Yuan Shao know? However, his face was very calm, "Yuxi, what Yuxi?" I haven't seen the Chuanguo Jade Seal, who is making rumors?" Sun Jian looked around at the generals, but looking at everyone's eyes, no one believed him, so he had to pull out his sword, fold the sword and swear: "If I Sun Jian gets the Chuanguo Jade Seal and hides it and doesn't hand it over, I will let me die under the random arrows!" Yuan Shao saw that Sun Jian resolutely refused to admit it, so he pulled out the informant sergeant: "This person can be recognized by Wentai?" Sun Jian was angry and attacked his heart, shouting in his mouth, "Shameless villain, dare to slander Ben Taishou?" The sword in his hand was about to slash and kill the sergeant, and the sergeant was so frightened that he retreated, and the generals were horrified. Yuan Shao was afraid of forcing Sun Jian to hurry himself to end badly, after all, Sun Jian's martial arts were superior, and he was not his opponent: "Wentai was angry, I almost listened to the words of the villain, I wronged you, I'm sorry." Sun Jian gave up. Yuan Shao still wanted to get the jade seal, and he had another plan, so he said to Sun Jian: "After Wentai returns to Jiangdong to visit his old mother, he can return quickly, and the family members should not take it with them, after all, the soldiers are in chaos, and they are following you and drifting away, so it is better to be safe here." Sun Jian saw that Yuan Shao had taken a step, and he also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey: "Okay, please rest assured that sun Jian will return when he goes."
After leaving his wife and family members with Yuan Shao as hostages, Sun Jian took his subordinates and Yuxi and went straight to Changsha without stopping. Yuan Shao was not idle, and immediately wrote a letter to Liu Biao, the mu of Jingzhou, saying that Sun Jian had obtained the Chuanguo Jade Seal and wanted to flee to Changsha, so that Liu Biao would intercept and kill him on the way and take back the Jade Seal. Liu Biao arranged for his troops to intercept the road that Ku Yue, Cai Mao, and Sun Quan had to pass through, and set up an ambush on the road, waiting for Sun Jian to enter the trap. After Sun Jian arrived, he led Huang Gai and other generals to defeat Cai Mao's army and continued to advance, and when he reached a hill, he listened to the war drums behind the mountain, and it turned out that Liu Biao personally led the troops to catch up. Sun Jian saluted Liu Biao: "Why did Jing Sheng believe Yuan Shao's words and force the neighboring counties to be so bitter?" Liu Biao: "You are secretly hiding the jade seal, don't you want to rebel?" Sun Jian swore to the heavens and the earth: "If I have this thing, I will definitely die under the sword and arrow in the future!" Liu Biao: "If I want to believe you, unless I search your luggage and soldiers." Sun Jian was furious and drank, "What's so great about you, dare to look down on me like this!" Saying, go and stab Liu Biao, Liu Biao is not an enemy, pull the horse to escape, Sun Jian sent his horse to chase. Suddenly, two teams of ambush soldiers were killed behind the mountain, and Ku Yue and Cai Mao also chased after them. Suddenly, Sun Jian's troops were surrounded by Liu Biao's army. Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, three generals, fought to the death to kill the enemy, rescued Sun Jian, and fled back to Jiangdong. After this battle, Sun Jian's soldiers were mostly damaged, and they formed a grudge with Liu Biao.
In the same year, Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to attack Liu Biao, and Sun Liu launched a decisive battle between Fancheng and Deng County, and Sun Jian was invincible and defeated Liu Jun. In order to pursue and defeat the army, Sun Jian led his army across the Han River and besieged Xiangyang. A few days later, Liu Biao sent Huang Zu to fight a second decisive battle with Sun Jian, but Huang Zu was still unable to defeat Sun Jian and led his troops to flee to the Middle of Da Nang Mountain, and Sun Jian also followed. Sun Jian pursued Huang Zu with only about thirty soldiers, and another of Liu Biao's generals, Lü Gong, had already ambushed in the grass waiting for Sun Jian's arrival. Due to the rapidity and agility of Sun Jian's horse, Sun Jian entered the dense forest alone, he saw Lü Gong, and after dozens of rounds of fighting between the two, Lü Gong fled to the mountains. Sun Jian was still in hot pursuit, committing a great taboo in the military family, completely forgetting that there would be ambushes. Suddenly, with the sound of a gong, arrows shot randomly in the woods, shooting at Sun Jian, sun Jianren and Ma died on the spot, when he was 37 years old, and a generation of heroes died in Huangquan.
Chao Qin Twilight Chu Cat: If Xiang Xiang Wentai did not die early, Chinese history may be rewritten, but history did not make an envoy. The long river of history, Hao Hao Tang, rushed forward, how many heroes Haojie drowned in it! Reading history, sighing, a small thing can also have huge unpredictable consequences. My generation should be conscientious, cautious, walking on thin ice, carrying heavy loads forward, hoping to live this life in peace and security. I am deeply looking forward to working with those who are related to me!!
