Lv Dai (middle) of the Three Kingdoms Liangjiang series
Cooking wine on heroes, let’s talk about the characters of the Three Kingdoms.
The fourth major incident of Lv Dai-Putting down the Changsha Rebellion
In the previous issue, it was mentioned that Liu Bei sent Lv Dai away and then mobilized the main force from Jingzhou to attack Yizhou, forming a de facto fraud against Sun Quan. So when Liu Bei entered Chengdu, the relationship between the Sun and Liu alliance also fell to a freezing point.
The author mentioned in the last issue that one of Lu Dai's roles in Yizhou is likely to be to assist Liu Bei in occupying some counties and counties in Yizhou, and then exchange part of Jingzhou with Liu Bei after the incident. In this way, Liu Bei returned to Jingzhou and occupied Yizhou. As a result, Liu Bei dismissed Lu Dai and made Guan Yu strictly guard the border. This obviously violated the original intention of allowing Lu Dai to bring two thousand Eastern Wu soldiers into Shu. No wonder Sun Quan was furious. For Lu Su's sake, Sun Quan sent an envoy to Liu Bei for the last time to return the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Lingling. Of course, Liu Bei could not agree.
In the 20th year of Jian'an (215), the pressure from the north of Sun Quan and others diminished temporarily, and Lu Meng and his army were quickly sent to attack the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Lingling. Some people may wonder why Guan Yu didn't resist, and the three counties just gave up to Soochow? The answer is obvious: insufficient troops. Guan Yu's defense of Jingzhou mainly relies on the two fortresses of Jiangling and the public security, mainly to deal with the threat of Cao Cao in the north. Liu Bei had tried his best to enter Shu, and Pang Tong was killed. Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and even Yu Huo Jun, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan were all in the middle of Shu. Jingzhou soldiers were also transferred to Shu in large numbers. On the other hand, Soochow Wu obviously had restraint. After quickly occupying the three counties, he did not continue the offensive. Instead, Lu Su led 10,000 troops to Yiyang to confront Guan Yu. With Lu Su on the front line facing Guan Yu, it was clear that Sun Quan did not want the two sides to break completely at this time.
When Liu Bei led the main force of Shuzhong back to Jingzhou, Guan Yu and Lu Su did not reach a consensus, but the situation of both sides was saved by Cao Cao. At this time, news of Cao Cao's attack on Hanzhong came. Liu Bei could only return to Yizhou to stabilize the situation. He admitted that Changsha and Guiyang counties belonged to Sun Quan. Sun Quan also made concessions and returned Lingling to Liu Bei. Demarcation of Xiangshui River".
The above are all strategic contests. Let us see what Lu Dai is doing at this time.The ten troops of Governor Lv Dai followed Lv Meng to attack the three counties of Changsha. Although there was no big battle because the local Liu Bei's army was stretched, there were still small-scale battles. Some officials loyal to Liu Bei in the four counties of Changsha County, Ancheng, You, Yongxin, and Chaling, poured into Yinshan City and gathered to resist Lv Dai. Lv Dai sent troops to besiege, and eventually forced the resistance forces in the city to surrender. The three counties were basically calm. After the demarcation of the Xiangshui River, Sun Quan stayed in Lv Dai to guard Changsha.
"Three Kingdoms·Lü Dai Biography" contains: An Cheng Wu Dang and Zhong Lang general Yuan Long and other Guan Yu, reverted to anti-chaos. According to You County, the dragon is in Liling. The Quan Hengjiang general Lu Su attacked You, and Dang rushed away. Dai attacked Liling, then the birds cut the dragon, and moved to Luling as the prefect.
Although Sun Liu Xiangshui's delimitation has temporarily avoided war, the mutual trust relationship has disappeared. Therefore, the soldiers stationed on the border between the two sides often have some small conflicts. Lu Su still tries his best to maintain a fragile alliance.
In contrast, Guan Yu is more powerful. After all, Changsha and Guiyang were lost in Guan Yu's hands. Although he is not to be blamed for the objective situation, Guan Yu is naturally angry with Dongwu, so Ancheng County Mayor Wu Dangji The act of Zhong Lang's Yuan Long "first and last" Guan Yu happened. Although the details cannot be ascertained, if Guan Yu is always committed to Sun Liu Heping like Lu Su, then the rebellion on the ground of Wu Zhan Jingzhou will never try to contact Guan Yu. So it's hard to say how much it is, but Guan Yu must have intervened in Wu Dang and Yuan Long's rebellion. This can also explain why Sun Quan later caught Guan Yu and didn't let him go but killed him directly, giving up the last ray of hope for peace with Liu Bei.
Let's say that Wu Dang occupies You County and Yuan Long is in Liling. Sun Quan sent Lu Su to attack You County, Wu Dang broke through and escaped; Lu Dai attacked Liling, captured Yuan Long and beheaded him. Although the battle conditions in the two places cannot be exactly equal, but the two rebel leaders escaped one sack, or Lu Dai's record was better, and Lu Dai was promoted to Luling's prefect.
The fifth major event of Lv Dai-serving as the governor of Jiaozhou
Yankang first year (220),Lu Dai succeeded Buzhe as the governor of Jiaozhou. The reason behind this is closely related to the general trend of the world.
Buzha is a very famous noble minister of the Soochow Wu and also the first Jiaozhou governor of Soochow. The Bu Stallion not only suppressed the resident Shixie family, but also eliminated hostile forces such as Wu Ju, Yi Liao, and Qian Bo, so that Soochow had a firm foothold in Jiaozhou, and it also recruited a considerable army. This year Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, the Eastern Han Empire was destroyed, and the newly-born Cao Wei Empire intended to use troops abroad. Cao Pi couldn't wait to show his authority. And Liu Bei in the west has also been preparing for war, wanting to avenge Sun Quan for the loss of Jingzhou. Facing the sudden increase in military pressure, Sun Quan was also expanding his military strength, so he transferred Buzhe and his more than 10,000 men to Changsha for defense.
Obviously, as a substitute for Bu Jia Lu Dai's primary task is to maintain the existence of Soochow in Jiaozhou. After all, the foundation of the Han dynasty here has always been weak, and it is not easy for Lu Dai to maintain the current situation. However, Lu Dai made a big move here.
Lv Dai was lucky. As soon as he took office, Qian Yan, the bandit leader of Gaoliang County, Hepu County, took the initiative to surrender, and Lv Dai took advantage of the situation to appoint him as the captain of the western Gaoliang. After all, Buzhan had just left with more than 10,000 people, and Soochow's power in Jiaozhou was relatively empty. Compared with the survivors, there were more people who wanted to do things. Soon the barbarians of Yulin County launched a rebellion and besieged the county, but Lu Dai quickly defeated it. On the other side, Wang Jin, the head of thieves in Xuyang County, Guiyang County, gathered a large number of bandits at the junction with Nanhai County, and Sun Quan ordered Lu Dai to conquer.
"Three Kingdoms·Lü Dai Biography" contains: Quan You Zhaodai discusses it, binds gold, transmits the capital, and beheads more than 10,000 people.
Lu Dai defeated the thief army and captured King Jin and escorted him to Jianye, beheading more than 10,000 people. There is no record of Lu Dai’s military strength in historical books. Combined with the records related to the footsteps, I believe that Lu Dai should win more with less. No matter how to solve the battle of tens of thousands of enemies, it was considered a major battle achievement, so Sun Quan worshipped Lu Dai as General Annan, Jiajie, and became the capital of the township lord.
pacified many bandits and rebels one after another, which proved Lu Dai's military capabilities. It seems that the miscellaneous forces in Jiaozhou cannot pose a threat to Lu Dai. Next, Lu Dai will switch from defensive to offensive and take the initiative to take measures against more important opponents.
The sixth major event of Lu Dai-the split of Guangzhou
The so-called more important opponent,Refers to the Shixie family. From the four years (187) of Zhongping Shi Xie to the five years (226) of Huang Wu's death, he served as the prefect of Jiaozhi for forty years. Although the governor of Jiaozhou has changed from one post to another, Shi Xie is the most powerful figure in Jiaozhou. As the court of the Eastern Han Dynasty became weaker and weaker, Shi Xie went to the court to let many of his family’s relatives take up various important positions in Jiaozhou. Among them, three of his younger brothers served as prefects of Hepu, Shi Ma as prefects of Jiuzhen, and Shi Wu as prefects of Nanhai. In addition, Shixie himself was the prefect of Jiaozhi, four of the seven counties of Jiaozhou were in the hands of the Shijia.
Although Liu Biao hesitated to compete with the Central Plains, he made frequent expansions to Jiaozhou. He successively appointed Lai Gong as the governor of Jiaozhou and Wu Ju as the governor of Cangwu. In order to prevent Liu Biao, Cao Cao tried his best to win over Shi Xie. In the name of the court, he named him Sui Nan Zhonglang, the governor handed over the seven prefectures of the state, and concurrently served as the prefect of Jiaozhi.
In this way, two-headed politics appeared in Jiaozhou, that is, the governor of Jiaozhou and the governor's taxi in the seven counties. The governor of the flowing water and the Shi Xie, whether the governor of Jiaozhou belonged to the court, Liu Biao, Cao Cao or Sun Quan, their power in Jiaozhou is far inferior to that of Shi Xie. But the situation in the world became clearer and clearer, and Sun Quan firmly grasped Jingzhou, cutting off the actual connection between Jiaozhou and Cao Wei. Shi Xie could no longer meet the source of the source, and could only obey Sun Quan in name. Sun Quan had no spare energy for the time being to confront Shi Xie, who was located in a remote area, and the two sides were in peace.
However, this fragile balance is just a stopgap measure and cannot last long. The opportunity to break the situation is Shi Xie's death. The author of Shixie will start a separate chapter, so I won't be long-winded here.
In the fifth year of Huang Wu (226), the ninety-year-old Shi Xie passed away. The key figure to maintain the delicate balance between Jiaozhou and the Soochow regime is gone. All parts of Jiaozhou are suddenly caught in a tense atmosphere. .
It was Sun Quan who took the first action. Sun Quan appointed Shixie's son Shi Hui as General Anyuan, Jiuzhen Prefect, and Xiaoli Chen Shi as Jiaozhi Prefect. With reference to Cao Wei's treatment of the Gongsun family in Liaodong, three generations of the Gongsun clan served as prefects of Liaodong for three consecutive generations, in exchange for the nominal surrender of the Gongsun clan. Now that the Shi Xie who served as the prefect of Jiaozhi for forty years was not cold, Sun Quan dismissed the Shi Hui, which obviously wanted to change the situation of Jiaozhou being dominated by the Shi clan.
Jiaozhou has seven counties. Since Sun Quan has made it clear that he wants to clean up the Shi family, Lu Dai took the opportunity to request that Jiaozhou be split. The three counties of Hainan, Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Nichinan, are Jiaozhou.General Dai Liang is the governor, Nanhai, Cangwu, Hepu, and Yulin, the four counties of Haidong, are Guangzhou, and Lu Dai is the governor. This division was clearly aimed at the Shi family, who wanted to divide and conquer them, while at the same time strengthening control with two governors.
Shi Xie’s most important title when he was alive was not Jiao Zhi prefect, but "Suinan Zhonglang, Dong Du seven prefectures". This was the title officially appointed by Cao Cao in the name of the Eastern Han court, and Shi Xie actually controlled the entire territory of Jiaozhou. Source of legitimacy. Now Sun Quan not only changed the Shihui to the Jiuzhen Prefect, but also demolished Jiaozhou, which means that the legality of Shishi's rule in Jiaozhou has been uprooted.
Shi Hui was of course unacceptable, so he refused the appointment of the new Jiaozhou governor Dai Liang, and Chen was at the border. Of course, this was within Sun Quan and Lu Dai's expectations, so Lu Dai went up and asked to lead troops to crusade against it, and immediately led three thousand troops across Hainan to advance. As mentioned earlier, the last Jiaozhou governor's footman led more than 10,000 to go north to Changsha. A few years later, Lu Dai wanted to conquer the shogunate emblem, the largest land snake that could only take 3,000 people. It can be seen that the footsteps were transferred to the main force. The Wu regime's existence in Jiaozhou was very weak, which is why Shi Hui dared to confront Sun Quan.
Lu Dai Major Incident No. 7-Eradication of Shi Hui
At that time, the Guangdong and Guangxi regions belonged to the remote and undeveloped areas, so the roads were slow and the terrain was complicated. March across the sea. On the way, some subordinates expressed concern: "The Shihui is reliant on his family prestige, and there are many people in the prefecture who are attached to it. I am afraid it will not be easy to go." , If we can attack him by surprise, we will succeed in one fell swoop. On the contrary, if we hesitate a little, we have fulfilled the wish of the Shi Hui to give him confidence and then hold on to the city. Over time, the barbarian tribes of these seven counties will They responded, no matter how many tactics there are, it will be meaningless. Na Shihui can no longer do it."
"Three Kingdoms·Lu Dai Biography" contains: Proceed, pass Hepu, and advance with the good. When Hui Wen Dai reached, the fruit was horrified, and he did not know what to say, and immediately led the six brothers to greet Dai. Dai beheaded his head. The generals of Huizhou, Gan Li and Huanzhi, led the officials and the people to attack Dai,Dai fought hard, broke it, and gained the title of Panyuhou.
Lu Dai passed through Hepu and marched with Dai Liang, who had been blocked from his previous appointment. Shi Hui was really shocked when he learned that Lu Dai had come so quickly, and he was panicked for a while. Originally, Shishi did not have any military genes, and it did not rely on military force to rule Jiaozhou for 40 years. The limited battles were small fights, which were not comparable to the combat effectiveness of the Soochow army. Facing the coming war with real swords and guns, Shi Hui was still timid, and took off his six brothers to take off their shirts and "sickly" greet Lu Dai as a sign of surrender. As a result, Lu Dai beheaded all the Shihui brothers, which really shouldn't be.
The Shijia has not done anything brutal in Jiaozhou for decades, and it can even be said to be quite popular, so Lu Dai worried that the local people would respond when the action was slow. But since he has surrendered, he should at least be sent to Wuchang to ask Sun Quan to send him down.
"The Story of the Three Kingdoms: Shixie Biography" contains: Yizi Zhonglang will have an old relationship with Dai, and Dai will be engaged with mentors and friends. If you lose the county guard, you will have no worries.
"The Story of the Three Kingdoms·Shixie Biography" contains: Dai Xie Ling reverts to the county. In the morning of the Ming Dynasty, the curtains were put on, and the Hui brothers were invited to enter in the next time. Daiqi, read the edict on Yongjie, condemned a number of sins, and left and right because of rebellion, that is, they are all punishable, and the first is Wuchang.
According to these two records, Lu Dai’s behavior is even more excessive. Lu Dai first took advantage of Shih Kuang's fellow Shi Kuang, and through Shi Kuang's old friends, the two had an old friend to submit a letter of persuasion to surrender, making it clear that as long as Shi Kuang was willing to surrender, his personal safety would be guaranteed.
Faced with the six brothers from the family who were pleased by the flesh, Lu Dai first comforted them to put on their clothes and return to the city to rest. The next morning they invited them to the camp, which was full of guests. It seemed that both parties It's a peaceful scene. Unexpectedly, Lu Dai took out the edict and counted the guilt of the scholar's emblem. Then the soldiers on the left and right took the six brothers of the Shijia family back and kidnapped their arms and cut them off. The first level was passed to Wuchang Sun Quan to request credit.
It is no wonder that the generals Gan Li, Huanzhi and others "led the officials and the people" attacked Lu Dai,This shows that Lu Dai's unfaithful behavior aroused public outrage among the locals. However, the resistance of the group of dragons without a leader was naturally not an opponent of the regular Soochow Army, and they were all defeated by Lu Dai one by one. Lv Dai settled Jiaozhou and entered Panyuhou. Immediately after, Lu Dai marched into Jiuzhen County and killed more than 10,000 resisters.
Lu Dai’s behavior was evaluated by Sun Sheng, a famous historian of the Eastern Jin Dynasty: “A gentleman knows that Sun Quan can’t be far away, and Lu’s Zuo does not extend it.” Criticizing Sun Quan has no long-term strategic vision, while Lu Dai’s Because of this wicked matter, the clan failed to continue, and it was all retribution.
Objectively speaking, the scholars who have ruled Jiaozhou for more than 40 years are deeply entrenched, and there is little chance of a complete peaceful solution. If no drastic measures are taken, Jiaozhou will inevitably be divided again when Soochow is weak. The author personally believes that objectively, Lu Dai's bloody and tough attitude towards Shishi and his supporters played an important role in eradicating the separatist forces and bringing Jiaozhou into the rule of the Soochow. But Lu Dai's method is indeed very bad, unbelievable, rebellious, bloody massacre, and it is not worth promoting at any time.
Lu Dai is indeed a controversial figure in expanding the influence of Soochow in Jiaozhou. The objective positive role and the subjective moral deficiency coexist. How to evaluate different people's opinions? The next issue will continue to talk about Lu Dai's later actions. If you are interested, please click and pay attention.
