The imperial court discussed changing the Yuan Dynasty to Zhongping.

When Taizu opened his mansion, he worshiped Han Dang as the general of the guard and subordinate to the Sima; Lu Fan was the commander of the general of the guard; Lou Gui, Xi Zhong was the general of the guard and engaged in the army, Wang Xiu, Zao Zhi was the general of the guard and the official, and Wei Yue was the leader of the cavalry.

At that time, Hanoi was frequently plagued by bandits. When Taizu arrived, the thieves fled, and the people encouraged him. Along the way, he saw white horses and ladles to welcome him. Taizu had heard that Sima Zhi in Hanoi had a reputation as a virtuous man, so he went to visit him, and they had a very pleasant conversation. He recommended Zhang

The three sons of the family, Fan, Cheng, Zhao, Chang Lin, Han Xuan, Yang Jun, Wang Xiang, Han Hao, Fang Yue, Hao Meng, Zhao Zi, Sima Lang, etc., were all promoted by Taizu. At that time, all the outstanding figures gathered together and served as officials.

In the temple, sesame and jade are planted everywhere; in the small room, there are dazzling displays of flowers. Taizu sat and looked at it, and said with great joy: "All the heroes in Hanoi have entered my palace!"

After staying for a few months, Hanoi was about to be conquered. However, Luoyang Nangong suffered from Zhurong, and Emperor Ling ordered the people to pay ten coins per mu for the palace repairs. Taizu did not hesitate, but You worked hard to do it. Within a few days, he also ordered all states and counties to send wood and inscriptions.

Shi, sent his troops to the capital. Taizu was furious and wanted to resist his rebellion. Suddenly he heard that the Yellow Turbans in Hebei had resurrected and that the former Julu Governor Guo Dian had died in the battle. He also heard that the imperial court had forced Sima Zhi to become the Julu Governor. Zhi couldn't bear to do it. He went to Mengjin and looked up to him.

He died of the medicine. Taizu rushed to Mengjin and met Gongsun Fan on the river. He said that Liu Kuan had passed away and left all his affairs to Taizu. There was a suicide note for him. Taizu wrote the letter and wept, so he went to Luo to ask for his words. Emperor Ling agreed.

Taizu then sold all the property in Luozhong, got a thousand gold, and sold all the fine wine. He told Master Liu that the wine was good, and invited all those who came to pay tribute to have a drink. He carried the spirit to Mengjin, and said goodbye to everyone. He cut bottles and drank with them, vowing not to leave a penny.

The money was used to buy officials, but he would eventually pay it back to clear up the imperial court. At that time, Yuan Shao was on the side, and he was very different when he heard about it, so he regarded Taizu as a powerful enemy.

Taizu went to be buried at the foot of King Kuanwu Mountain. After finishing his burial, he returned from the north to western Liaoning, Changlin, and Han Hao asked to follow him. The general of the guard left his seal ribbon in Luo, and Emperor Ling sent an envoy to pursue him. He accepted it three times.

When they arrived in the State of Zhao, the refugees knew many of the white-horse Yi Cong, so they followed them, and there were more than ten thousand of them. Taizu could not bear to abandon them, so he divided Yi Cong to protect them and slowly moved north. When they arrived in Guangyang, the number of followers increased, and Taizu was concerned about the old and weak.

The people were impatient of hard work, so they moved to Changping to work in the fields. They set up a general's palace there, where Baima Yicong was stationed and taught privately. Everyone from Lu Fan to the next worked on their own, with their hands and feet covered, and they worked hard and slept hard. They suppressed the powerful and cleared the land.

, inspected the hidden households, organized and trained a number of troops, and in three years the area prospered greatly. Famous scholars such as Ju Zong, Du Ji, Jingze, etc. all went to join him.

When Taizu lived in Guangyang, he often sighed to himself when he heard that Fu Xie had been martyred repeatedly in Liangzhou. After a while, Wang Fen, the governor of Jizhou, sent Xu You as his envoy to talk about abolishing the establishment. Taizu angrily denounced him. When You left, Taizu left.

When he came to the Xinghe River, he sighed. Some people on the left and right knew what he meant, and they all advised: "The emperor is confused, so he ordered the princes to not tolerate the court. Today, the people have rebelled, and the soldiers are not enough to defend themselves. The people in Youzhou Township have been kind to the emperor, and they will obey him. I will do it.

Live in peace in Guangyang, lead the righteous disciples, and assist them when they see the truth, so as to help the world." Taizu sighed: "The emperor is really stupid, but the chaos in Guanxi, how can Fu Nanrong be blamed? Wang Fen's disobedience, how can all the officials in Jizhou suffer?

?At the same time, there are many obstacles in Guizhou Province, so we should do something about it." Then the left and right stopped.

In the winter of the fifth year of Zhongping, the general He Jin sent a letter to Taizu, saying that he would lose military power and might hinder the execution of eunuchs. When Taizu heard about it, he led his own private troops to Hanoi, and the Northern Army in Luozhong and Xiyuan were filled with Taizu's old troops.

, came to visit one after another. When the eunuchs in Luozhong heard about it, they spoke to Emperor Ling and sent an edict to Zhang Wen, the captain of the Sili school, so that he could order Taizu to enter Luo. When they arrived, Taizu hung his sword on the gate. Zhang Wen sighed when he saw it.

He left in shame. In October, Emperor Ling's military parade was optimistic, but in the end he could not win, so he resumed military power.

In November, 100,000 thieves from Liangzhou invaded the Sanfu and marched towards Chang'an. The thieves were so fierce that they could not be defeated except by a famous general, so they crossed the river on a snowy night to invite Taizu. Feeling his sincerity, he agreed. He then worshiped Taizu as his general.

The imperial edict was issued to Sanhe and Five Schools, and an army of more than 20,000 people was mobilized to attack the west. After hearing that Cao Yu, Jia, a soldier in Taiwei's mansion, was good at strategy, he was recruited as a military commander and was in charge of military discipline. Most of the eunuchs in the five schools were eunuchs. When they heard that Taizu was a general, they were afraid.

When they arrived at Hangu Pass, Zhao Yanju, a brother of Zhao Zhong's clan, failed to arrive, so Taizu held the banner and beheaded him. The army was shaken, so he ordered Ruju to point his finger. When he arrived at Yong County, he joined Huangfusong and Dong Zhuo's army and set up camp in Lishui.

The walls are strong and there is no way out. We can only send out multiple scouts to detect the thieves' movements.

In the first month of the sixth year of Zhongping, Taizu learned that the thieves were defeated in Chencang and could not leave for more than a month. They ran out of food and wanted to retreat, so he organized his army and set up camp in the east of Chencang. At that time, Lu Fan arrived with an urgent letter, saying that Wuhuan and Xianbei were in rebellion in Youzhou, cutting off Liaodong.

, Zhang Ju occupied Guanzi City and pretended to be the emperor, but Taizu kept silent about it. He made an appointment with Song Zhuo, the leader of the thieves, Han Sui, Ma Teng, Guo Guo, etc., and decided to fight tomorrow. He sent a farewell letter to Sui, and implemented a counter-intuitive plan. On the tenth day of the lunar month,

, with Xu Rong commanding all the cavalry, and Lu Bu leading the white horse Yi Cong as the front, they defeated the thieves in one burst, beheading more than ten thousand people. They also sent Han Dang in advance to lead two thousand cavalry to defeat the enemy, and then drove the thieves to the Wei River. The thieves swarmed across the river on the ice, and the ice broke.

Thousands of people died in the trap. The remaining people surrendered, but there were more than 30,000. Those who escaped by luck were less than 10,000. Taizu thought that the thieves were evil in nature and feared power, so he punished them by killing eleven people. The leader of the thieves, Li Xiangru, was hammered to death.

Cheng Gongying and others. Han Sui and others saw it across the river. Their liver and gallbladder were split, and they dared not return to the east for the rest of their lives. After the incident, Taizu immediately sent the entire army to Song and returned to Youzhou with his white horse. Before leaving, he asked about the future of Xu.

, Xu said: "If the prince arrives late, he can go from Jizhou to Hanoi; if he arrives early, why not go to Bingzhou." Taizu said.

Guanzhong was in peace, and the imperial court gave Taizu a scepter for his merits, so that he could control all the counties in Foreland of Youzhou and Zhongshan, and the military affairs of Changshan County. In February, Taizu went to Fanzhou to know the enemy's situation, and he mobilized the elites of the five counties of Youzhou.

Riding, he led his righteous followers to Lulongsai. In Bingchen, Emperor Ling died.

In March, Taizu led Gao Shun's three thousand troops as the vanguard, followed by Wei Yue, who led seven thousand of his own troops out of the fortress. After a battle, he went to Guanzicheng, captured Zhang Ju, and beheaded him to inform Youzhou. He heard that Liucheng was empty.

, he stayed in Shun to guard the city, and led his troops across the Daling River in order to capture it urgently. Before they were halfway through, Duanbu Xianbei suddenly sent an envoy to report that Wuhuan Shanyu Qiu Liju had led 20,000 troops to lie down at Xiaoling.

East of the river, a starry night came. At that time, people were sipping hot soup in the open fire. The salty water turned pale and the soup flowed all over the ground. However, Taizu was unmoved. He sipped slowly, raised the bowl again and said, "This bowl can catch a thief!"

Naian'an. Taizu, seeing that the enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered, returned to cross the Daling River in order to join forces with Shun. The thieves pursued him in a hurry and fought on the river bank, but it was a bit disadvantageous. Zhao Yunshi was the commander of Qu, and seeing the situation urgent, he led the Eighteenth Army of his headquarters.

Riding together, they rushed into the formation, seven in and seven out, killing generals and grabbing flags. The enemy was invincible. With the help of Fen Black Otter, the enemy formation was defeated. Wei Yue, Han Dang, Lou Gui, etc. also came to the rescue one after another. Qiu Liju

Unexpectedly, they could not win, so they retreated back to Liucheng. It was raining heavily, and Taizu knew that the thieves would not be prepared. He led 15,000 horsemen to attack Liucheng at night.

, also sent troops to defeat Wuhuan in Liaodong, and chased and killed the enemy chief Su Puyan. Wuhuan was defeated. The court discussed the posthumous title of Emperor Ling, saying "Ling", and changed it to Yuan Guangxi.

In April, Qiu Liju's Zilou Ban led Xianbei Kebi Neng's 10,000 cavalry to attack Liucheng. Taizu defeated them and killed Lou Ban. The Wuhuan king's descendants were cut off, so he moved his tribes, built three guards in western Liaoning, and organized the people into households.

, and each gave rewards and punishments. Wuhuan returned to his heart and served as Taizu's pioneer for several decades.

Prince Bian ascended the throne and the Queen Mother came to court. General He Jin and Yuan Shao conspired to kill the eunuchs, but the Queen Mother refused to listen. Jin then summoned three groups of border troops and recruited five groups of troops. He also wanted to use Taizu as backup to suppress the situation and threaten the Queen Mother. The letter arrives

In western Liaoning, Taizu laughed when he saw it and said: "It is appropriate to have eunuchs and erect officials in ancient and modern times, but the master of the world should not use false power and favor to do this. Since his crimes should be punished, the evil of the Yuan Dynasty should be punished. One jailer is enough, why bother with them one after another?

Are you summoning an outside general? If you want to kill him, the matter must be revealed. I am afraid that I will see his defeat before I arrive." Not long after, Shi Chang's servant Guo stabbed into the Jiade Hall of Nangong. Luozhong was in chaos, and everyone attacked and killed each other.

"Book of the Later Han Dynasty". Only Gongsun Yue led troops to escort his family members to Hanoi to protect their descendants.

Taizu returned from outside the fortress and went to Juyang. He gave a banquet to all the heroes of Youzhou with two thousand stones, and also met the state pastor Liu Yu. Yu thought he was weak, so he entrusted the government of the state to Taizu.

In the seventh month, Taizu heard that Dong Zhuo was tyrannical, abolished the establishment, and poisoned the Queen Mother. He met in Changshan to make an alliance and vowed to fight against it. There were many governors in Hebei Province and they recommended Taizu as the leader of the alliance. Tian Feng heard about it and offered his advice.

Bingzhou captured Luoyang Guanzhong. Taizu was happy and worshiped him as the right army commander Zhonglang General. So Lu Fan stayed behind and Cheng Pu assisted him. He sent 20,000 troops to fight against Zhuo. At that time, Yuan Shao also joined the Suanzao Alliance to fight against Zhuo, and many princes in the Central Plains followed him.

Tao Qian held an alliance in Xuzhou, and many princes from Huaiyang followed him. Zhuo was frightened by the news and wanted to move the capital to Guanzhong.

When the counties of Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Yanmen, and Dingxiang in Bingzhou heard that Taizu had arrived, they all joined in with each other as if the clouds were turning and the sun appeared. However, the Xiongnu pseudo-chan sent troops to loot and block the road at Xubuguduhou. Taizu went to Mayi.

After the great defeat, they captured and killed Xubu Guduhou and drove the remaining troops to the west of Hexi. In the twelfth lunar month, when they arrived in Taiyuan, the prefect Yang Zhong relied on the fortified city of Jinyang and wanted to resist. However, the famous clans in the city turned against him, killed him and dedicated the city.

In the first month of the first month of the Yuan Dynasty, the Xiongnu chanyu Yu Fuluo and others were confined to the Shangdang. Feeling the virtue of Taizu's right position, he led his troops to surrender, but Taizu still led his headquarters. Zhang Yang, the governor of Shangdang, suddenly lost the Xiongnu.

With the help of Taizu, he offered his county to Taizu and went south to Hanoi. Gongsun Yue and others were originally trapped in Hanoi, so they went to Jinyang via Shangdang to visit Taizu. Taizu was overjoyed when he saw it, and stayed with Yue to guard Jinyang, and ordered him to recruit soldiers to guard Shangdang.

, since he organized his troops and left Hedong to attack the Baibo bandits. The bandits were the remnants of the Yellow Turbans. Taizu wanted to put them down quickly, but also worried about avoiding the battle. Famous soldiers and guards from Hedong proposed suggestions, and they should use their strength to force the thieves to attack.

The ancestor accepted him and hired him as a member of the palace. He set up camp at the Gaoliang Pavilion and used many scouts to disturb the thieves' rear.

In February, the bandits Guo gathered a hundred thousand people to attack. Taizu sent out 20,000 cavalry of the entire army to counterattack, and wiped out more than 10,000 bandit cavalry. Gaoshun troops were also used to guard the camp, and many trenches were set up with deer and firewood. The bandits arrived at noon.

At dusk, the dead and wounded were lying on their pillows, and they could not get out. At dusk, Taizu went out of the camp and led 20,000 cavalrymen to line up in the east. His army was well-organized and their armor was dazzling. They were dazzling in the setting sun, like gods, and the thieves looked at him with horror.

Taizu saw that the thieves were shaking, so he ordered the whole army to cheer, stopped, no drums, and led the crowd forward. The thieves array saw the flag wavering, but before they could reach ten steps, they stopped suddenly. The thieves were suddenly surprised, and the formation gradually collapsed. This happened again and again.

, the whole army of thieves was shaken, and scattered left and right. The leader of the thieves, Guo Taizu, looked at him from a distance, and knew that he could not do anything. He also understood Taizu's intention, so he killed himself and sent his bodyguard to a box with his head to surrender. Taizu inspected the surrendered generals and killed those who looted the countryside.

Those who are arrogant and lawless will be punished, and those who behave well will be comforted, and everyone will have peace of mind. Then he united his troops, approached Maojin, and peeped into the river.

At the beginning, Zhuo heard that Taizu was coming, so he burned the palaces, temples, officials and homes, and moved millions of people from Luoyang to Chang'an. They drove them on foot and on horseback, and even crossed each other. Hungry bandits plundered them, and the road was filled with corpses for two hundred miles.

There were no survivors inside. When Taizu arrived at Maojin, Zhuo also arrived. Taizu offered a reward across the river, saying that whoever killed Zhuo Zhuo would be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and be granted the rank of marquis. Those who left the whole body would be rewarded with ten coins. Zhuo was furious and died.

Unable to do anything, he entered the Pass to the west. Lu Bu was left behind, Jia Xu guarded Taolinsai, Zhang Ji guarded Pujin, Niu Fu, and Li Ru guarded Shaanxi County. Taizu crossed the river and instigated rebellion against the old troops Xu Rong, Zhang Liao, etc., killing Fu and Ru.

In May, Taizu divided Lou Gui, Tian Feng, Han Dang and others to attack Pujin, and led his partial troops to Taolinsai. Gui and others fought hard for the whole day, while Lai Xuhuang sneaked across to pick mulberry, and attacked for 240 miles in six days, defeating the enemy.

In three cities, they defeated Pujin and beheaded Zhang Ji. When Jia Xu heard about the battle in Pujin, he lured Lu Bu to rescue him and offered himself to Taizu. He also admonished him to attack Xiwu with light troops and capture Dong Zhuo first. Taizu did so and stayed behind.

The soldiers guarded the pass, and they led seven thousand cavalry to advance rapidly, crossing Chang'an without entering. In five days, they arrived at Xinwu and surrounded it. Zhang Liao was appointed as the commander of the other tribe, leading two thousand cavalry, and set up camp at Wuzhangyuan to prevent their reinforcements. Zhuo's general

Wang Fang returned from Sanguan to rescue him. In the night of Liao Dynasty, he attacked his army, killed him, and sent his leader into Wu.

Since Zhuo was surrounded, the people in Guanzhong attached themselves to Taizu, and within ten months, they came to surrender one after another. The generals also defeated the enemy and came to help, and became incorruptible. Wei Yue and others killed Zhuo's younger brother Min, and sent him to Wu. Liangzhou Ma Teng,

When Han Sui heard that Min was dead, he handed over a petition to surrender and offered his son as a righteous obedience. Taizu accepted it. Zhuo Guan Wu's surroundings became thicker, and he also heard that Taizu sent the overlord's broken blade to Wu, which he had given as a gift when he merged with the state. Wu finally could not

To avoid this, Taizu wanted to destroy his family, so he ordered Diao Chan to prick him. When Taizu came to Wu, he was surprised when he saw it, so he accepted her and made her his wife. It was also said that Wang Ping of Liangkang and Zhuo's granddaughter Bai Yuan were married, and it was passed down that

The most outstanding one is Sanfu.

Taizu attacked Zhuo Bi and returned to Chang'an. He was greeted by hundreds of officials and ordered to see the Han emperor. Taizu went to Weiyang Palace and criticized the world. He blamed the emperors for their lack of moral integrity, eunuchs and eunuchs who brought disaster to the country, corrupt ministers, hypocritical families, and tyrannical mergers.

The generals on the border were domineering, and everyone was ashamed, and no one dared to resist. Taizu said: "From today on, I will whip the world, comfort the soldiers and calm the people, and I will do it myself!" After living in Chang'an for several months, he issued the "Order for Seeking Talents" and paid homage to Xun You.

He became the lieutenant general in the rear military division; he collected the bad money minted by Dong Zhuo and recast it into new money; he cleared the fields to check hidden areas and suppressed mergers; he used work instead of relief to help the people; he eliminated redundant personnel and reduced military supplies. The atmosphere in Guanzhong was changed into a new one.

Zhaoji, Cai Yong's daughter, admired Taizu for a long time. When she saw the new policy, she said: "This is a true hero!" She recommended herself at night and Taizu accepted her, and she became Mrs. Cai.

In the first month of the first month, the court discussed changing the Yuan Dynasty to Jian'an. An old friend, Tian Kai, went to Chang'an to pay a visit to Taizu. Taizu was overjoyed and rode a captain, and invited him to stay in General Wei's Mansion, where he slept on the same bed and met Empress Xiaozhuang. Kai was cautious at first, but gradually relaxed.

So Kuo Lue had no courtesy and spoke to Taizu about the word "hu". Pang De was angry and asked to kill him, but Taizu refused and said: "Gongzhigu is an old friend of my youth, a local and an old friend from the same county."

As an official, why do you do this?" De Chu spoke with Zhang Ji, Jing Ze and others, Ze said: "We should show him with authority and courtesy." Tomorrow, Taizu will hold a meeting with the three auxiliary generals and officials at Mingguang Palace to discuss Hebei.

War. Kaiben did not call for help. He invited him in with empty words. When he entered the Guangming Palace, he saw countless ministers, all sitting in a row. Pang De led Yi to join the army, and Jingze led tigers to fight the army. They also wore robes surrounding the palace and outside, and Kai took his place.

Sitting in the corner, Kai Sui was shocked, knowing that Taizu was magnanimous, and he later became more cautious in serving Taizu.

At the beginning, Yuan Shao wanted to fight for Zhuge Liang and presented himself as a general of chariots and cavalry. He established an alliance with Suanzao and most of the princes in the Central Plains. Shao was generous on the outside but taboo on the inside. He did not bother to conquer the west and focused on annexation. Within a few years, Bao Xin died.

They forced Liu Dai, chased Kong Rong, imprisoned Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao, killed Qiao Mao and Zang Hong, and annexed their land and subordinates, so that they could become powerful. Then they drove Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, and defeated the governor of Bohai, Gongsun Zan, and collected Jushou and Xin Ping.

Xin Pi, Xun Chen, Guo Tu, Yu Jin, Zhang He and other civil and military officials wanted to go to Hebei. The imperial court issued an edict and denounced them as national traitors. After hearing the edict, Zeng did not change it slightly, and rounded up Guan Yu to Handan. Taizu

Angry, the general returned from Bingzhou to Hebei to fight against it. Shao's army besieged Handan and was too anxious to leave. Yu backed the city and set up a stronghold. Every time he went out, he would be captured. The killings were heavy and the morale of Shao's army was low. Shao Nai left 20,000 troops trapped in Handan.

, the rest of the army rested during the Liang period.

In August, Taizu led two thousand white-horse soldiers to advance to Jingxing. Zhang Yan, a bandit from Zishan, blocked the way. There were more than 20,000 thieves. Taizu sent three thousand soldiers from the county and five thousand troops to attack.

After crossing the river and setting up camp, the sentry riders returned at night. They heard that Zhang Yan's camp was constantly smoked and could be seen under the moonlight. Taizu then knew that the thieves wanted to carry out a secret attack in Huaiyin. He called all the military advisors to confront him, but the matter was hasty, and all the soldiers
