Chapter 106 Section 4 Hu Shahu Rebellion

The Mongolian army approached the city, and Wanyan Yongji was so anxious that he went to the doctor in a hurry. He actually used Hu Shahu, who had escaped from the front line, to resist the Mongolian army.So, why did Wanyan Yongji reuse an escaped general?And can this Hu Shahu take on this important task? When Hu Shahu fought against the Southern Song Dynasty, he was indeed a famous general. When he was weak, he was strong.But Hu Shahu is very domineering and has a bad temper.During Jin Zhangzong's reign, he disobeyed orders several times.Zhang Zong gave him an official, but he thought it was too small and refused to obey the order.When Zhang Zong got angry, he withdrew him to the end.Suspect the official is small, right?Be a soldier.But because of the war with the Southern Song Dynasty, Jin Guo had no choice but to use him again, and he won again, and was promoted to stay behind in Xijing.

When the Mongolian army entered, Hu Shahu asked the deputy general Mo Nian to defend Xijing loyally, and led 7,000 people to escape.Passing through a county town along the way, he asked the county magistrate to pay for rewards, saying that we came back from a victorious battle, and you should reward us.The county magistrate said that the county had just been plundered by the Mongols, and there was no money to reward you. Besides, you won the battle, why did the Mongols rob me?You know where you come from.Hu Shahu was so furious that he beat the county magistrate to death in disregard of the court system, rushed into the treasury, and took away five thousand taels of official silver.When he fled to the vicinity of Zhongdu, he reported to King Wei, saying that the Mongol army was powerful, and I escaped with great difficulty and brought back 7,000 soldiers. These are the seeds of our great gold. People are finished, reward me.King Wei was very angry. Of course he understood that Hu Shahu had run away, but when the country employs people, Hu Shahu still has thousands of people under him. If he is punished, this guy will be reversed.Therefore, King Wei had no choice but to persuade Hu Shahu, but he didn't trust him.Hu Shahu asked 20,000 people to defend a certain place, but King Wei only gave him 3,000 people. Hu Shahu quit in a fit of anger.Wei Wangxin said that it would be better if you didn't do it, and he didn't intend to let you do it.In this way, Hu Shahu resigned for the second time.

But the Mongol soldiers were approaching day by day, and the king of Wei inspected all the generals in the court. At any rate, Hu Shahu had fought against the Southern Song Dynasty, and had been on the battlefield.King Wei sent Hu Shahu 5,000 men to garrison the north of Zhongdu.Hu Shahu said, you don't have enough people for me. The Mongols are coming, and they will definitely be unstoppable.King Wei said, Aiqing is reluctant.Hu Shahu thought to himself, you are trying to put me to death, I will rebel and kill you first. Hu Shahu contacted his generals. He said, the master is fatuous and cannot resist the Mongols' attack. Are you willing to follow me to establish another Mingjun?Of course the generals are willing.Just at this time the Mongols came to attack, Hu Shahu didn't want to resist, and played with eagles all day long.King Wei was in a hurry, and sent envoys to urge Hu Shahu to send troops to resist the Mongols.Hu Shahu was furious, beat the envoy to death with the eagle he was playing with in his hand, and then led his army to attack Zhongdu.

Hu Shahu first tricked Dan Nanping and his son, Yin Tudan from Daxing Prefecture, Zhongdu, out of the city.Tu Dan Nanping didn't know what was going on, so he rode his horse to Guangyang Gate.Hu Shahu rushed forward and stabbed Tudan Nanping to death. The rebel army took the opportunity to rush into Zhongdu City and surrounded the palace.Hu Shahu shouted to the palace, the enemy has come in, let us enter the palace to defend the emperor.The guards of the palace knew that he was rebellious and closed the gate of the palace tightly.Hu Shahu ordered the soldiers to set up ladders and attack Miyagi.Most of the imperial guards in the palace were asphalt road soldiers who could only go forward and had no combat experience. When they saw Hu Shahu leading the field army coming and setting up a ladder to attack Miyagi, they had to open the door and surrender.After Hu Shahu rushed into the palace, he first arrested King Wei and asked him to return to the mansion to live.Zuo Prime Minister Wan Yangang was killed, and then Hu Shahu sent eunuchs to King Wei's mansion to kill King Wei.The seventh emperor of the Kingdom of Jin was killed by traitors after five years in power.

After Hu Shahu killed King Wei, he wanted to be emperor himself, but the ministers refused to accept it.You are not the Wanyan family, how can you be the emperor?Hu Shahu's surname is He Shilie, the Han name is He Shilie Zhizhong, and the Jurchen name is Hu Shahu.The Heshilie clan cannot be the emperor, only the Wanyan clan can.
