With strength, Li Te divided his troops into two large battalions, Li Te guarded the north camp, and Li Liu guarded the east camp, and then rushed to make armor, sharpen weapons, and enter a state of emergency alert, only to wait for the officers and troops to attack. Sure enough, Xin Ran sent Zeng Yuan, Zhang Xian, and others to lead 30,000 troops to sneak up on Li Te's camp; Luo Shang heard the news and also sent the overseer Tian Zuo to lead the troops to respond. The officers and soldiers had already arrived at the camp gate, but Li Te calmly slept on the bed, silently; half of the officers and troops had already entered the camp, and Li Te suddenly launched a counterattack, and for a while the ambush was everywhere, the officers and men suffered heavy casualties, and the main generals Zeng Yuan, Zhang Xian, and Tian Zuo were all killed. Li Te also ordered the captured soldiers to bring the heads of the three to Luo Shang and Xin Ran. Luo Shang complained to Xin Ran with chagrin, "As long as there is a few days of grace, they would have been willing to go back, but you did not listen to my general's orders and forced them to rebel." What now? ”
The displaced people of the six counties were victorious, so they publicly promoted Li Te as the leader, launched a fierce attack on the official army, and achieved a series of victories, and soon captured Guanghan County, where Xin Ran was located, and Xin Ran fled in a daze. In the first month of the second year of Tai'an (303 AD), Li Te led an army to attack Chengdu, which was set up with a small city connected by two cities, the Shu Commandery Taishou Xu Jianxian small city surrendered, and the Yizhou Assassin Shi Luoshang led the remnants of the defeated army to retreat to dacheng. This time, Li Te wanted to make meritorious achievements, not only did he no longer rob, but his military discipline was particularly good: as early as when he entered Chengdu, he agreed with the Shu people on three chapters of the law, giving alms and loans, and the etiquette and stasis, and the military and government were solemn; after entering Chengdu, in addition to collecting horses for military supplies, everything remained unchanged and there was no intrusion into the people. Therefore, Li Te called himself Yizhou Mu, the governor of Liang Yi'erzhou, the military, the great general, and the governor of Dadu, although he had not yet officially called the emperor, he also changed the era name to the first year of the founding of the first year, indicating that a new dynasty was born. Immediately afterward, Li Tefeng's elder brother Li Fu was made the general of the Hun Horse, his younger brother Li Liu was the general of Zhendong, Li Jun was the general of Xiao Riding, the eldest son Li Shi was the general of Wuwei, the second son Li Lang was the general of the Zhen Army, and the younger son Li Xiong was the former general. In this case, Luo Shang sent people to ask Li Te for peace, and the Shu people who had originally docked in the village to protect themselves also expressed their attachment to Li Te. Li Te did not give a clear answer to Luo Shang, but sent people to the various docks to appease him. Due to the shortage of military food, Li Te also arranged for the displaced people in the six counties to eat in each village. Li Liu advised Li Te: "The villages have just been annexed, and the people's hearts are not stable, so we should take the eldest sons and daughters of them as hostages and send troops to protect them in case of an accident." Accepting surrender is like accepting a challenge, how can it be taken lightly! Li Xiong also thought that his uncle's words were reasonable, but Li Te said angrily: "The big thing has been decided, and now the most important thing is to calm the people's hearts, how can we be suspicious and force them to deviate from morality and betray us?" At this moment, the Jin dynasty sent 30,000 sailors to rescue Luo Shang, and Li Te had to divide his troops to meet the enemy. The annexed villages saw that the imperial court was powerful and shook again. Yizhou RenMing said to Luo Shang, "Li Te's troops are scattered and the enemy is unprepared, and the heavens want him to perish." You can send people to the dock villages, secretly agree with them on the date, and attack inside and outside, you can definitely break him. Luo Shang thought it was reasonable, and Ren Ming went out of the city to surrender to Li Te. Li Te asked him about the reality in the big city, and Ren Ming replied: "The grain is almost eaten, and only the goods and silk are left." Li Te believed it to be true, and Ren Ming asked to go home to visit, and Li Te agreed. Ren Ming quietly went to the various dock villages to lobby, and all the dock villages expressed their willingness to obey orders, and Ren Ming went back to warn Luo Shang. In February, Roshan sent troops to attack The Litter camp, and the villages responded in droves. After two days of bloody fighting, the exile army was defeated, and Both Li Te and his brother Li Fu were killed. This year, Li Liu was 56 years old, and it is estimated that Li Te was also fifty-seven or eight years old, but his reign was too short, only one or two months.
Li Te had three sons: the eldest son, Li Shi, the second son, Li Dang, and the youngest son, Li Xiong. In the first year of the reign of Emperor Tai'an of the Jin Dynasty (302 CE), Li Te and Li Dang led an army to attack Zhang Zheng of the Guanghan Dynasty who was defending Deyang (present-day Shehong, Sichuan). Zhang Zheng was in danger of being in danger of being in the mountains and held out with Li Te for several days. Li Te and Li Dang divided into two camps, and Zhang Zheng took advantage of the emptiness in Li Te's camp and suddenly ordered the infantry to attack along the mountain. Li Te was defeated in the battle, and the mountain was steep and tight, and his subordinates were overwhelmed for a while, so some people advised Li Te to retreat. Li Te estimated that Li Dang would definitely come to the rescue and resolutely disagreed. Sure enough, Li Dang led the army to come, but he suffered from the narrow mountain road and it was difficult to move forward. Li Dang said to his subordinates, "My father is under siege, and it is the day of my death!" Cloaked in heavy armor and holding spears, he shouted loudly to rush straight into the enemy position, and some Jin soldiers who did not know whether they were dead or alive tried to stop them, and in an instant they died under the spear, and Li Lang killed a dozen or so in one breath. Zhang Zheng's reinforcements continued to attack and kill, and Li Dang's generals saw that the lord was so brave, they all fought desperately, and finally defeated Zhang Zheng's army, killed Zhang Zheng, and captured his son Zhang Cun alive. After Li Te's death, the Shu people rebelled against the Jin court, and the displaced people were terrified as if they heard the thunderbolts on a sunny day. Li Liu, Together with Li Dang and Li Xiong, gathered the remnants of their troops and retired to Chizu (赤祖, in present-day Mianzhu County, Sichuan), Li Liu held the Eastern Camp, claiming to be the Great General, the Governor of Dadu, and the Pastor of Yizhou, and took Over Li Te's place; the brothers Li Dang and Li Xiong held the Northern Camp. In March of the first year of the founding of the people (303 AD), Luo Shang sent the governors He Chong and Chang Shen to attack Li Liu, and the people of Fuling (present-day Pengshui, Sichuan) also gathered a crowd to respond. Li Liu and Li Jun joined forces to resist the medicine gentry, while He Chong took advantage of the void to attack the North Camp, and the Qiren Zhicheng and Kui Bo rebelled in the camp and responded. At this critical moment, Litt's wife, Roche, hurriedly put on her armor and led her army to resist. Kui Bo slashed Luo Shi's eye with a knife, and although Luo Shi's face was full of blood, he was still not afraid and bravely rushed to kill. Fortunately, after li liu defeated Chang Shen and Yao Shen, he led an army to attack He Chong, and He Chong suffered a major defeat and loss. He Chong was defeated, and Gong Cheng and Kui Bo were also under siege, and the two had to lead their henchmen to break through and defect to Luo Shang. Li Liu chased all the way to Chengdu. Luo Shang had to close the city and hold on, but Li Dang, who was fighting bravely, was slightly negligent in the pursuit of the defeated army, and was stabbed by a spear and died.
Li Liu was killed by Li Te and Li Dang, and Luo Shang's reinforcements were about to arrive under the leadership of Jingzhou Assassin Shi Song Dai and Jianping Taishou Sun Fu, and they were greatly frightened. So Li Liu's brother-in-law Li Han persuaded him to surrender, Li Liu was ready to obey, Li Xiong and Li Jun took turns to advise, li Liu did not listen. In May, Li Liu sent his son Li Shi and Li Han's son Li Hu to Sun Fu's army as hostages. Li Hu's brother Li Left Ren Zi Tong Taishou at the time, heard that his father was going to surrender to the Jin court, and rushed back to advise, but it was already one step too late: because the hostages had already left. Li Li quietly approached Li Xiong again and suggested sneaking into Sun Fu's military camp. Li Xiong said, "Now there is only one way to live." But the two old people do not agree, what to do? Li departed, "Do it behind their backs!" If they find out, force them to agree. It is a matter of life and death for the whole army, how can you still take care of your uncle and uncle! Li Li's implication is: Li Han is only your uncle, but he is my father, and for the sake of the public's interests, I don't even care about my father. Li Xiong heard that it was reasonable, so the two of them separately persuaded the people: "We have already hurt a lot of Shu people, once we lay down our weapons and surrender, won't we become a pile of fish and meat to be slaughtered?" For now, only by attacking Sun Fujun with one heart and one mind can we survive and gain wealth! The people all expressed their willingness to obey the order, and Li Xiong and Li Qiqi attacked Sun Fu's camp and destroyed Sun Fu's army. It so happened that Song Dai died of illness at Matjiang (in present-day Hechuan, Sichuan), and Sun Fu had to lead the Jingzhou army to withdraw from Sichuan.
Li Xiong disobeyed Li Liu's orders and won the victory, and in fact saved the exile clique, which made Li Liu both ashamed and admired Li Xiong's strategy and ability, so he entrusted Li Xiong with all the matters of marching and fighting. Li Xiong then attacked Taishou Chentu at Wenshan (present-day southwest of Wenchuan, Sichuan) and took advantage of the situation to capture the city of Pi (pronounced pí), which was only 60 miles from Chengdu. In July, Li Liu moved the camp to Picheng. At the end of August, Li Liu became seriously ill and said to his generals: "Li Jun is benevolent and wise, and although he can achieve great things; but Li Xiongying's martial prowess is probably the fate of heaven as the saying goes, and you should all accept his leadership." ”
