Chapter 63 Chapter 2 hurt and parting

On the side of the Han army, in the coup that established Liu Xuan as emperor, the biggest loser was Liu Yan, and the biggest beneficiary was Zhu Tuan.Zhu Tuan was appointed as the chief Sima, with great power in his hands, thus replacing Liu Yan and becoming the new helmsman to control the Han army.Under Cen Peng and Yan Shuo's persistence, Nanyang Wancheng held back most of the main force of the Han army. Zhu Yu was happy instead of worrying, because Liu Yan was also dragged there.Zhu Tuan's wishful thinking is to use Wancheng to trap Liu Yan, so that Liu Yan can't move. Without Liu Yan's restraint, he can do whatever he wants outside of Wancheng, expand his territory and expand his power.Therefore, in the name of Emperor Liu Xuan, Zhu Tuan rewarded Liu Yan at the front line of Wancheng every now and then. No face to face anyone.After Zhu Yu nailed Liu Yan to Wancheng, he began to focus on opening up the Yingchuan battlefield, and dispatched several top generals--Shanggong Wangfeng of Chengguo, General Tingwei Wang Chang, General Hussars Zong Yi, General Wuwei Li At the same time, Yi, General Ma Wu and others transferred Liu Xiu and Deng Chen from the front line of Wancheng to attack the city in Yingchuan County and open up the road to Luoyang, the eastern capital.

When Liu Xiu received the imperial order to transfer him to Yingchuan, his first reaction was to disobey the order.During this extraordinary period, he could not leave Wancheng, nor could he leave Liu Yan. More than a month has passed since Liu Xuan proclaimed himself emperor, and the situation has become more and more unfavorable to Liu Yan. The forces that were originally loyal to Liu Yan are gradually leaving.Liu Yan's team is mainly composed of the Liu clan and Nanyang heroes.For the Liu family, after getting over the initial unhappiness, they soon realized that Liu Xuan also had the surname Liu, and was also a child of Chongling. Liu Xuan's proclaiming emperor would not affect their interests. Therefore, The support for Liu Yan is no longer enthusiastic.As for the heroes of Nanyang, especially the Li family where Li Tong belongs, although Li Tong is still firmly on Liu Yan's side, Li Yi, Li Song, Shen Tujian and others have clearly turned to Liu Xuan. It is said that it is against the Green Forest Army.

When Liu Xuangang came to the throne, Liu Yan had an illusion that the emperor was just a title, and it didn't matter if he borrowed Liu Xuan for a few days first.However, I soon discovered that this status can really kill people, restraining you and oppressing you everywhere.For this point, Yuan Shao and others of the Three Kingdoms have a deep understanding. Meng Degong tortured many heroes for a while by coercing the emperor to order the princes!In the past, if Liu Yan launched a mutiny to seize the supreme ruling power, it was called internal strife, which is normal; after Liu Xuan became the emperor, if Liu Yan launched a mutiny again, it would be an open rebellion by the subordinates and the superior, and even if it succeeds, it will be subject to public opinion If you fail to criticize and condemn morality, you will become a traitor and a traitor, and your reputation will last forever.

Since he couldn't rebel, Liu Yan's unparalleled prestige was useless, and he could only hurt himself in turn.Liu Xiu already felt that the Green Forest Army would never tolerate Liu Yan for a long time, and sooner or later they would have murderous intentions. The purpose of sending him and Deng Chen to Yingchuan this time is really obvious, that is, to further isolate Liu Yan, for the sake of The next step is to prepare for Liu Yan. Seeing Liu Xiu's refusal to leave, Liu Yan thought Liu Xiu was timid, so he smiled and said, "Birds will eventually leave the nest when they grow up. Go, it's time for you to stand alone." Liu Xiu then said her own Worried, he said: "The chiefs of the green forest, for a long time, have avoided the prestige of the elder brother. This time, Deng Chen and I were sent to Yingchuan to cut off the wings, which may not be good for the elder brother." Liu Yan said with a smile: "You are really suspicious. Didn’t the leaders of the Green Forest Army also go to Yingchuan? Zhu Yu issued an edict in Liu Xuan’s name, and it’s not appropriate for you to openly disobey it. If the Green Forest Army plots against us, we can’t let them Find an excuse and make use of it. As long as you open up the situation in Yingchuan and keep your troops outside, I will be safer."

Liu Xiu had no choice but to go to the expedition, and Liu Yan saw him off in person.At the place of nostalgia, drums and drums are urged, and the time for parting has come.Thousands of words, turned into a glance before leaving; horseshoes galloped wildly, looking back and seeing relatives.In this way, Liu Xiu embarked on the journey restlessly. He never thought that in this expedition, he would fight his famous battle, enough to shock the people of the world, and make the ancient and modern famous generals feel ashamed. Liu Xiu looked back and saw that Liu Yan's figure had long been blocked by mountains and trees. Liu Xiu suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition. Could it be that the parting just now was the last time of the two brothers?Thinking of this, Liu Xiu burst into tears and couldn't help herself. The grass grew and the warbler flew all the way, feeling sad in her heart.

The Battle of Yingchuan went extremely smoothly. Several big cities—Kunyang, Dingling, and Yan—were surrendered or destroyed one after another, and all belonged to the Han army.Every city won means considerable war dividends. According to the unspoken principle of the battlefield, whoever contributes wins, the generals can take these dividends into their own pockets.Liu Xiu also seized a large amount of cattle, horses, property, and hundreds of thousands of dendrobium, but did not take any of them, and transported them all back to the front line of Wancheng to support Liu Yan's attack on Wan.At the same time, Liu Xiu also made a small fortune in talent, and he accumulated his first lineage: when he attacked Yingyang, Wang Ba, a native of Yingyang, with the character Yuanbo, led guests to vote for Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu worshiped him history.When Xiangcheng was attacked, Fu Jun, a native of Xiangcheng, named Ziwei, greeted the army with the county pavilion chief, and Liu Xiubai was the school lieutenant.At the time of attacking Jiacheng, Ma Cheng, a native of Jiyang in Nanyang, named Junqian, led the crowd to vote, and Liu Xiu worshiped him as Anji.
