Zhang Wenyuan used a carrot and a stick in Jinyang, killing hundreds of people and settling the entire Taiyuan County. Li Yuan's brother-in-law Wang Yu was eventually executed, while his sister Li was sent to Xindu.
After occupying Jinyang, Zhang Wenyuan blocked the news of the capture of Jinyang City while preparing to continue leading his troops southward. As for the Taiyuan County Grand Administrator, Huang Mingyuan's clan uncle Huang Chen served as the governor (appointed in advance).
Huang Chen is fifty-three years old this year. He was originally the magistrate of Yi County. After Huang Mingyuan pacified Hebei, he served as the county magistrate of Zhao County. His son-in-law is Jiao Fangwei.
Zhang Wenyuan left Xin Wenli, the deputy general manager, to stay in Taiyuan and help Huang Chen run Taiyuan County.
Taiyuan County is the largest county in Hedong, with jurisdiction over fifteen counties and a population of 180,000 households at its peak. Moreover, this area was the place where rebellions arose after the Sui Dynasty and until the Northern Song Dynasty. So after Huang Mingyuan heard the news of the attack on Jinyang, he ordered the seven counties in the eastern part of Taiyuan County to be classified as Leping County, which was governed by Shiai (now Pingding, Yangquan City, Shanxi Province). County), with Pei Wensu as the county prime minister in charge of county affairs.
Pei Wensu is Pei Ju's nephew.
Zhang Wenyuan and Liu Yunfang divided their troops and went south in two directions. Zhang Wenyuan led his army to attack Xihe County, while Liu Yunfang headed west into Lishi County.
The former governor of Lishi County was Yang Guang¡¯s uncle Yang Zichong.
Yang Zichong was born in the Dian Guard and originally served as General Youhou Guard. When Yang Guang visited Anbei City in the north, Yang Zichong repeatedly persuaded Yang Guang to return to the capital as soon as possible. After the siege of Yanmen, Yang Guangqian became angry and angry with Yang Zichong, so he was released from Shijun on the grounds that "Zichong is cowardly and cowardly, and makes arrogant requests, which has alarmed all our hearts, and cannot be left to his minions."
Lishi County and the neighboring Yan'an County have always been the settlement areas of Jihu.
These Jihu are a different species of the Xiongnu, also known as Shanhu and Buluoji, originating from the southern Xiongnu. Historical records record that this nation is greedy and tolerates harm, and is vulgar and obscene.
Since Jihu entered Hedong during the Eastern Han Dynasty, he has become an important source of trouble in Hedong and Guanbei. His tribe took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains Dynasty to establish the country twice, but was attacked and destroyed both times. During the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Northern Qi Dynasty, there were many rebellions. Including famous generals Wei Xiaokuan, Yang Zhong, Douluning, Yu Jin, Hou Mo, Chen Chong, Li Bi, and Yu Wensheng all conquered his tribe.
The most recent rebellion was when the Jihu people participated in Yang Liang's rebellion and were later massacred by Huang Mingyuan. However, because the root cause has not been touched upon, these nonsense continue to be banned. Historically, until the time of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, Bai Tieyu of Buluoji in Suizhou (now Suide, Shaanxi) incited the people to rebel, captured Chengping County (now Qingjian, Shaanxi), and claimed to be the Holy Emperor of Guangming. Finally, Wang Fangyi (the grandson of Wang Yu) wiped out Ji. The Hu talents gradually disappeared into history.
After the chaos broke out in the world, Liu Jialun, a native of Jihu in Yan'an County, first claimed to be the emperor. During the reign of the Yuan Dynasty, he echoed the rebellion of Jihu and Liu Yaozi. Later, Liu Jia was killed by Qu Tutong. Qu Tutong killed more than 10,000 Hu soldiers, captured tens of thousands of old and weak people, and built a capital temple in Nanshan, Shangjun. Liu Yaozi fled into Guanzhong.
And in Lishi County, Liu Long'er claimed to be the emperor, and his younger brother Liu Liu'er was the king of Yong'an. He had tens of thousands of troops. Pan Changwen led his troops to attack, but failed to win.
After that, the rebellion of these Jihu became even bigger, and the newly appointed governor Yang Zichong had to ask for troops to suppress it. Yang Guang then ordered Yang Zichong to lead his troops to suppress it, and Yang Zichong captured and killed thousands of people.
After Li Yuan's rebellion, the power of Zhu Hu became even stronger. Seeing that there were Jihu in the county and Li Yuan's rebels outside the county, Yang Zichong was unable to resist, so he prepared to return from Mengmen Pass (today's Mengmen Ancient Town northwest of Liulin County, Shanxi Province) with hundreds of his followers in the name of court gathering. Luoyang.
At this time, all counties in Lishi County surrendered to Li Yuan one after another. Yang Zichong's road was cut off and it was difficult to move forward, so he had to return to Lishi County to govern. Many of his troops also defected.
Zhang Lun, the general sent by Li Yuan and the general manager of Shizhou, led his troops to the city. All the defenders in the city rebelled, and Yang Zichong was also killed by the rebels.
Zhang Lun occupied Lishi County, changed Lishi County to Shizhou, appointed Wang Jian as the governor of Shizhou, and led his troops south to Longquan County.
Li Qingyang, the captain of Longquan County, led his troops north to resist, and the two sides held a stalemate at Puchuan River (today's Chengchuan River in Shanxi Province).
Liu Yunfang led his troops to the west, and happened to take Zhang Lun's retreat.
Zhang Lun originally had only a few thousand men in his hands. He occupied Lishi and gathered a lot of remaining soldiers, less than 10,000. It was impossible to leave many men in Shizhou.
Wang Jian served as the governor of Shizhou, mainly to guard against Ji Hu, and he only had 2,000 men at his disposal.
Liu Yunfang came from the east, but Wang Jian's attention was entirely on the west, so he was unprepared. Liu Yunfang ordered someone to pretend to be reinforcements from Taiyuan County and was ordered to support General Zhang Lun. Wang Jian was unprepared and opened the city gate to welcome him. He happened to be captured by the Sui army, so Liu Yunfang took the opportunity to enter the city.
Lishi County was recovered by the Sui army and became Lishi County again.
Liu Yunfang used the marching consolation envoy Cui Yixuan as the county magistrate to lead the county affairs, and Gao Yuanzhen, the deputy general manager of Huben Guards, as the arresting envoy to clear out the Jihu in the county. Cui Yixuan was born in the Cui Gai branch of the southern ancestor of the Cui family in Qinghe.
When Liu Yunfang entered Taiyuan, Huang Mingyuan sent a message to him, ordering him to clear away Ji Hu's troubles. Even if the journey south is delayed, Jihu must be cleaned up first.
The Jihu people still retain the nomadic customs of the Huns. They rely on cavalry and move around. When Sui troops arrive, their tribes will have fled far away, so it is very difficult to clear them out.
After Cui Yixuan and Gao Yuanzhen took office, they sent people to strictly block the roads in the Jihu area to prevent any supplies from flowing into Jihu. They wanted to trap the Jihu people.
This point really struck a vital point in Jihu¡¯s mind.
Ji Hu was already beaten by Yang Zichong, so he was a little weak. Now that all sources of supplies have been lost, it is impossible to survive. Liu Long'er sent troops to plunder everywhere, but they were all blocked by the Sui army.
Many people from the Sui Dynasty moved into the city and set up roadblocks to block traffic. The Jihu people could not find ordinary Han people to plunder, and it was difficult to cross the various checkpoints. It was also difficult for them to plunder.
So Liu Longer was forced to have no choice but to attack the county town to obtain food.
Liu Long'er led the Jihu people to attack Dinghu County (i.e. Mengmen Pass). After Gao Yuanzhen gained the trust, he did not rush to rescue. Instead, he sent troops to attack the Jihu people's home base, and ordered Dinghu County to stand firm and wait for help, using the city to attract more troops. There are many Jihu people.
Gao Yuanzhen first attacked Jihu's lair and captured tens of thousands of Jihu people, who were now demoted to hard labor. Then he led his troops westward and ambush east of Dinghu County.
Liu Longer besieged the city for more than ten days and could not capture it for a long time. The weather was cold, but Jihu's troops were short of food and clothing. They continued to attack the city and finally lost their energy.
Seeing this, Gao Yuanzhen led his army to attack Jihu's troops.
At this time, the Jihu people also got the news that their lair had been lost, and they were shocked. Facing the sudden attack of the Sui army, they were even more at a loss. So the Jihu people were defeated like a mountain. The Sui army attacked and defeated the Jihu soldiers. Thousands of them were beheaded. Liu Long'er was also killed in the army.
Liu Long'er's younger brother Liu Liu'er and his son Liu Jizhen were lucky enough to escape back to the old camp, and happened to encounter the Sui army waiting there, so they fought fiercely and the remaining troops were wiped out by the Sui army.
After the Battle of Mengmenguan, the main force of the Jihu people was destroyed, and they no longer had the power to wreak havoc. Cui Yixuan and Gao Yuanzhen stepped up their suppression of Jihu, and soon this ancient clan gradually disappeared in the long river of history. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
