Volume 1, Entering the Tang Dynasty for the First Time, Chapter 5, At Your Own Consequences
Lu Chen was thinking about it, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He was in a deadlock in his thinking. Since Liu Heitai had rebelled, it would be over if he killed Liu Heitai. This would not only prove that he was not Liu Heitai's work, but also There is no need to kidnap the princess, and this is still his old profession, plus he has the warehouse in hand, it is not too easy to kill Liu Heitai.
But if you want to kill Liu Heitai, you have to find out what Liu Heitai was doing during this time period. Lu Chen went directly into the base. There are books preserved here. He found historical books and started to supplement them. As a result, Liu Heitai Lu Chen really found out about Heitai's rebellion. Then he took a look and found that Liu Heitai was good at the front, but his behavior behind was a bit unreasonable.
On the one hand, Liu Heitao's rebellion was caused by Liu Heitai, and on the other hand, it was promoted by Tang Gaozu Li Yuan. Liu Heitai was originally a subordinate of Dou Jiande. After Li Yuan defeated Dou Jiande, Dou Jiande's subordinates fell apart, including naturally Liu Heita and others.
Dou Jiande is also a hero. He destroyed the Yu culture and treated Empress Xiao politely. Xu Shiji defected and released his father without charge. He captured Li Shentong alive and did not even let him go to prison. Hebei people respected and loved him, but It was such a person who was killed after being defeated, captured, and willing to surrender.
This is not to say that Li Yuan is narrow-minded. It can only be said that Dou Jiande is too popular with the people. His ability and courage may not be as good as those of Li Shimin, but his benevolence and righteousness far exceed those of the Li family. How could Li Yuan keep such a person? What if you If there is a rebellion, will the Li family still have peace? So Dou Jiande is dead!
After Dou Jiande's death in the fourth year of Wude, Dou Jiande's subordinates Liu Heitai and others had already lived in seclusion. Li Yuan was still worried and insisted on killing all of Dou Jiande's subordinates in Hebei, causing people in Hebei to panic.
At that time, Sun Fujia, who was serving as the censor of the imperial court, went to court to object to Li Yuan's actions, and said directly that if Li Yuan did this, it would chill the people of the world, make them lose their sense of security in the imperial court, and cause chaos in the world.
As a result, Comrade Li Yuan didn't know whether it was a menopausal problem. Regarding Sun Fujia's suggestion, his direct attitude was: accept the suggestion and refuse to change it, and Dou Jiande's old subordinates must be killed.
Originally, Dou Jiande was defeated and died, so Li Yuan should have spent his energy on winning over the hearts of Hebei people. However, Li Yuan did not. Instead, he resorted to dividing and chasing people. First, he recruited several of Dou Jiande's key subordinates, Fan Yuan, Dong Kangmai, and Cao Cao. Zhan Zhan, Gao Yaxian and others went to Chang'an to become officials and nobles. On the other hand, Dou Jiande's men were indeed being hunted down.
At a glance, these people knew that Li Yuan was a weasel paying New Year greetings to a chicken - he had no good intentions! Think about Shan Xiongxin, then think about Li Gui and Xue Rengao, and then look at Xiao Xian who is right in front of them, what will happen to them? These are all examples!
Several people directly found Liu Heitai, who was still working as a farmer at home, and they expressed their anger to Liu Heitai: "Brother, Brother Dou is from your hometown, and we are sworn friends, and we are bestowing a seal on you." Lord Handong, Li Yuan is so careless now that he killed his eldest brother, and now he wants to kill us, what do you think we should do?"
In fact, Liu Heitai has never wanted to live a comfortable life. Regarding Dou Jiande's death, Liu Heitai also hated Li Yuan. At the same time, the Li family dynasty naturally became his enemy. In fact, he has been waiting for an opportunity. Dong Kangmai and others came to him and gave him a chance, so he naturally agreed.
In the fourth year of Wude, Liu Heitai rebelled. In just three days, the number grew to 2,000, and he captured Zhangnan County in one fell swoop. On July 19th of the same year, he built an altar in Zhangnan and paid homage to Dou Jiande.
Officially raised troops to rebel against the Tang Dynasty.
Originally, Liu Heitai would not have been able to create such a big momentum if he had rebelled on his own. The key point was that Liu Heitai was a brave and resourceful person. He also knew that he could not survive alone. However, since Li Mi, Liu Wuzhou, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and others all
After the collapse of the Tang Dynasty, there were no powerful separatist forces in the Tang Dynasty. In the end, Liu Heitai took the lead and found Xu Yuanlang in Yanzhou.
To put it bluntly, Xu Yuanlang is a small warlord who is trying to survive in the cracks. Not to mention compared with the big forces like Dou Jiande, even Li Yi from Youzhou cannot compare with him. He first demoted Dou Jiande, and after Dou Jiande was defeated and died, he demoted again.
Tang Dynasty.
Although he hugged Li Tang's lap, the lessons learned from the past were still fresh in his mind. Xu Yuanlang was afraid that one day he would be like Dou Jiande and others, and Li Yuan was struck by a knife, so when Liu Heitai found him, he immediately became a shareholder.
.
But with Guang Xu Yuanlang as a helper, Liu Heitai was somewhat confident in Hebei. There was no cinnabar and red soil was expensive.
At this time, the battle for the crown prince between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin was also in full swing. Therefore, in order to compete with Li Shimin for prestige, Li Jiancheng personally took command and wanted to conquer Liu Heitai. At this time, the Tang army was retreating in Hebei, and first won a great victory.
Li Shi and Li Yi subsequently captured Dingzhou, causing Li Xuantong, the general manager of Dingzhou, to commit suicide and die for his country. They then captured and killed Shi Quling, the governor of Jizhou, and then defeated Li Shiji. Then they successively defeated Xiangzhou, Lizhou, and Weizhou until they captured it.
Xingzhou, Zhaozhou, Weizhou and Shenzhou.
At this time, Li Yuan really couldn't sit still, because urgent documents from everywhere were flying in front of Li Yuan like snowflakes. What made Li Yuan the most depressed was that Liu Heitao actually united with the Turks to give Li Yuan a back-up.
prick.
You must know that the Turks are a thorn in Li Tang's side, and also a thorn in the side of the Han nation. They have never stopped since ancient times, and all dynasties have wanted to deal with them. Now Liu Heitai has actually united with the Turks, which makes it even more important.
I can't bear it anymore.
Therefore, Li Yuan still sent Li Shimin out. At this time, the military power in the world was divided into three parts. One part was in Li Yuan, one part was in Li Shimin's Tiance Mansion, and one part was in the hands of Li Xiuning, who was the most powerful.
It is said that half of the foundation of the Tang Dynasty was built by Li Xiuning.
Although the dispute between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin for the crown prince is getting more and more intense, the Li family still has to unanimously communicate with the outside world at this time. If Li Jiancheng cannot do it, then Li Shimin will naturally get it. Li Shimin is not a fool and cannot act recklessly. Now Liu Heitai's climate has become...
Naturally, Li Shimin also had to find a helper. If he wanted to find one, he would look for the biggest one with whom he had a good relationship. Naturally, it was Princess Pingyang Li Xiuning.
The two of them worked together to kill Liu Heitai, but they failed to catch him and Liu Heitai ran away.
You said you, Liu Heitai, could just run away. You can make a comeback if you have the ability. But he went to unite with the Turkic Jieli Khan and rebelled for the second time. You, Liu Heitai, were tossing around in Hebei. That was us Han people stirring the pot.
Going back and forth, this is called brotherly feuding, but now you ask outsiders to get involved, which is a bit unethical.
Therefore, Lu Chen has no psychological burden to get rid of Liu Heita. If he is a traitor to foreign countries, he must be killed!
Thinking of this, Lu Chen turned over and sat up from the thatch, then stood up and walked to the door of the stone house, patting the stone house: "Come here! Come here! I want to see Her Royal Highness the Princess, I have an urgent military report!"
"Why are you making such a fuss!" Just as Lu Chen was banging on the wooden door of the stone house, the shouts and curses of the guarding soldiers came from outside the door.
"I have urgent military information to report to Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Seeing that beating on the wooden door had no effect, Lu Chen came to the window again, holding on to the iron fence with both hands, "If you don't report it in time, you will be responsible for the consequences!"
