During the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China, a nation formed by descendants of Qiangqu of other Xiongnus lived in Wuxiang and Jieshi areas of Shangdang County, called Jie clan, also known as "Jiahu".

During the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China, a nation formed by descendants of Qiangqu of other Xiongnus lived in the area of ​​Wuxiang and Jieshi in Shangdang County (now the counties near Lucheng, Shanxi). It was called Jie clan, also known as "Jiahu".

This tribe is very different from the Han people. It has deep eyes, high noses, and many beards. It uses the original tribal form as the basic social unit, and lives a simple and simple life of hunting and grazing.

There is a Jie people at the foot of Beiyuan Mountain in Wuxiang, named (bèi). According to legend, in the eyes of (六文), the plants and trees in Beiyuan Mountain are in the shape of war horses. Ginseng grows in his home garden, with lush flowers and leaves, and most of them have human shapes.

Equivalent people commented (broken): "The appearance is strange, the ambition is very strong, and the future is unlimited."

Most neighbors do not believe it.

(正号) is a tenant from a wealthy family. She works in the fields and often hears the sound of golden swords and iron horses. He was very surprised and told his mother about this when he returned home. The mother said with concern: "Son, this is kidney deficiency. Kidney deficiency causes tinnitus to work. Although it is not an ominous sign, you should pay attention to your health."

(我官网) can't laugh or cry.

During the Tai'an period of Jin Dynasty (around 303 AD), famine occurred in Bingzhou (most part of Shanxi Province and nearby Hebei and Inner Mongolia), and the territory was in chaos. (歌) The Hu people who were tenants together fled and separated, were tied up by the commander of Kitaze and sold to others as slaves.

(歌未) said to the buyer: "Now there are famines everywhere. We slaves are all hungry. You might as well take us to Jizhou (central, southern Hebei, east and east ends of Shandong and north ends of Henan) to sell it. In this way, you will earn a big price. When we go to a wealthy family, we can also stutter, kill two birds with one stone."

buyer felt that his idea was good and did what he wanted.

(南南) was sold to Chiping (Zhiping County, Shandong).

in Chiping, (其族) and other slaves were driven to the fields to do hard work every day.

In his spare time, he (shoulder) chatted with other slaves and said, "When I work, there will always be a sound of drums and horns in my ears. Have you heard it?"

The slaves pricked up their ears and listened carefully. Perhaps they were psychologically hinted, but when they heard it, they actually heard a similar voice and said, "You often hear such a voice."

found a soulmate!

(正号) laughed and said, "I can hear it when I was young."

The slaves were very surprised.

There is a horse pasture near where they work. The horse seller of Wei County, Jisang , often comes to buy horses.

(南南) was born in a nomadic tribe and has a good look at horses. When commenting on horses, one set after another makes Ji Sang look at him with admiration.

Starting from talking about horses, the two have become deeper and gradually become inseparable good friends.

Jisang, a native of Juqiu, Qinghe, is a young man in his early twenties. He can carry a tripod with a loud voice. He is born with a lion's magical skill. With a loud roar, he can spread a few miles away. The village is shocked by a god.

(歌) This year, he was also twenty years old. The two were about the same age and had similar intentions.

(博博) suggested to Ji Sang that instead of selling horses like this and making hard money, it is better to have the courage to do a few big votes.

How many votes are there? How to do it?

Ji Sang looked at him in confusion.

(我取) didn't say anything, and pointed to the east.

Ji Sang understood and laughed.

It turns out that the imperial court opened a royal horse garden such as Chilong and Ji in the eastern part of Chiping County. The ones feeding them are excellent BMWs and Qianlijiao. If you can steal these BMWs, what should you do?

does it just right.

The two brothers connected together eighteen heroes and went to steal horses together.

From then on, a team of horses that came and went like the wind appeared in Shandong, known as the Eighteen Cavalry. These eighteen cavalry galloped and plundered silk treasures everywhere, and their careers grew bigger and bigger.

In the second year of Yongxing in the Jin Dynasty (305 AD), the Huns Liu Yuan, a Hun, was called the King of Han in Liting, and the Pingyang people, Gongshifan, , and others, raised troops in Huang County, Qinghe County (now south of Shandong Pingyuan). Ji Sang, Shi Le and others went to join the army.

Before joining the army, Ji Sangrang (其族) took Shi as his surname and named Le. Ji Sangwan would not have expected that the name "Shi Le" he made on a whim and temporarily made up his mind would soon become a nightmare for thousands of Han people. I don't know how many Han people were frightened and shuddered when they heard this name.

In the melee in troubled times, Gong Shifan and Ji Sang died in battle one after another, and Shi Le led the remaining troops to join Liu Yuan in a hurry.

Liu Yuan is not someone who wants to surrender. He asked Shi Le to surrender, asking Shi Le to get rid of Zhang Fulidu of the Wuhuan tribe for him.

Shi Le is a stray dog, rootless duckweed. In order to join the gang, he had to succumb to Liu Yuan's unreasonable request.

What is surprising is that Shi Le, who was ignorant of the eyes, even came up with a "bitter plan" without any instruction: let Liu Yuan beat him up, acted as if he was very bitter and revenge, and broke into Zhang Fulidu's team.

Wuhuan tribe's brothers are honest and do not know Shi Le's sinister intentions.

Shi Le deceived everyone with a calm, down-to-earth, hard-working appearance and willing to do garbage work. Finally, he successfully kidnapped Fulidu at a tribal meeting and coerced the brothers of the Wuhuan tribe to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

Liu Yuan opened his eyes and happily appointed Shi Le as the general of the Han Dynasty and the king of ping Jin, supervising Shandong (east of Taihang Mountain) to punish the military, and was responsible for leading the Wuhuan tribe of Fulidu.

From then on, Shi Le led an army alone, plundered in the Han River Basin, and captured Xincai and Xuchang, and captured a very large piece of land.

What made Shi Le famous all over the world was a killing in Ningping City, Ku County in the fifth year of Yongjia (311).

In the first month of that year, Western Jin Prince Donghai Sima Yue led more than 200,000 troops from Luoyang to attack Shi Le. On the way, Sima Yue died of illness and everyone recommended Taiwei Wang Yan as the commander.

Wang Yan is a famous scholar who advocates purity and inaction. He hides whenever he can, and pushes whenever he can. He refuses: "When I was young, I didn't have the desire to be an official, but I had a prosperous official career and unknowingly promoted to the current high position. This is completely a trick of the heavens and fortunes. How can a person like me, who is not enterprising to serve as the commander of the big event today?"

Everyone said, you are the highest official in the army. Who can I bear it if you don't let you take it? Stop pushing, it's you.

Wang Yan could not resist it, so he seemed to be a duck who was caught on the shelves and became the supreme commander of the army.

But Wang Yan had no courage to go to war with Shi Le, and played with the silence of his hands. He left on the grounds that he sent Sima Yue's coffin back to the Donghai Kingdom.

Wang Yan innocently thought that by leaving, he could escape from the battlefield that was about to start.

No reason, Shi Le refused to let them go and led the light cavalry to chase them overnight.

On April 1st, I caught up in Ningping City, Ku County.

Wang Yan's team had more than 100,000 people, but the army had no fighting spirit and was busy running for funerals and fleeing. When Shi Le's cavalry attacked, they were disintegrated.

Shi Le smiled grimly and started killing.

More than 100,000 people died in the rain of arrows all over the sky, and their corpses were piled up like mountains.

In this battle, all the vitality of the central government of the Jin Dynasty was destroyed, and a large number of senior officials of the court were buried.

Shi Le expressed great interest in Wang Yan, the highest commander of the Jin army, and ordered the soldiers to bring him to his presence.

This is their second meeting.

When Shi Le was fourteen years old, he went to Luoyang with his fellow villagers to do small business. He was very bored and once leaned over to the east gate and whistled. The roar attracted the attention of the Secretary Zuo Pushe Wang Yan. He observed for a long time and said to the left and right: "The young man from Hu just now, I heard the strange ambitions hidden in his voice. I am afraid that the world will disrupt the world in the future. Go and catch him." Fortunately, Shi Le saw the opportunity quickly and left early.

Now, Shi Yi Shi changed, Shi Le appeared in front of Wang Yan as a winner.

However, because Wang Yan was too famous and had a good appearance, Shi Le was conquered by his demeanor and demeanor when he saw him. He politely invited him to sit down and asked him about the reasons for the prosperity and decline of the Jin Dynasty.

Shi Le is the right person.

Wang Yan was in his twenties and was in the officialdom. He had gone through three dynasties and held important positions. He was a witness and witnessed all kinds of stories in the court. Moreover, he was both a bystander and a witness. Moreover, his simplicity was his specialty. As soon as he opened his mouth, he talked endlessly and could not keep it. Even if he said it wrong, he could speak nonsense like usual, just like usual, correct it as he said, and gave Shi Le a whole day of political lessons.

Shi Le has never read a book. It is rare to have such an opportunity. The more you listen, the happier you are. The more you listen, the more you understand many great principles you didn’t understand before.

Unconsciously, the sun is west.

Wang Yan's stomach was so hungry that he was croaking, but Shi Le was fascinated by the sound and did not notice it. What to do if

? Still talking or not? Besides, I am really dizzy and unable to do anything.

Wang Yan decided to end today's conversation and have a meal earlier.

He said: "When I was young, I never had the idea of ​​becoming an official and engaging in politics. I was just forced by the times and couldn't help myself and accidentally became the Grand Marshal. But I never participated in the major affairs of the court. Now the Jin family is exhausted. Your era is here. Please hurry up and become emperor as soon as possible!"

He said, Shi Le woke up from his dream. Yes, today's conversation is over.

He stretched out his long and slung, scolding Wang Yan, "You are here young, you are old and have a long career. You are in a vital position, and you have a name all over the world. Now, you say that you have no idea of ​​becoming an official and not wanting to participate in the affairs of the court. What are you saying? I want to say that the people who ruin the Jin Dynasty are people like you who do not do their own politics in their positions!" He turned around and ordered his subordinates, saying, "Come, drag him down!"

It was originally seen that they were talking so happily, and the other captured princes and ministers were all lucky, hoping that Shi Le would release them all if he was in a good mood. Then he knew that Shi Le turned against him faster than reading the book, and he was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

However, Sima Fan, the King of Xiangyang, was still a little bit of backbone, and shouted loudly to these kneeling people and said, "If you die today, die. What do you have to say!"

That night, Shi Le tied these ministers and ministers under a broken wall, and the soldiers pushed the wall from behind and pushed them down, trying to crush them to death.

Listening to the sound of the wall behind, Wang Yan's face was ashes and shed tears, "Oh! If I don't advocate flamboyance and absurdity in normal times and try my best to help the world, how could it have fallen to where it is today!"

killed Wang Yan and others, and Shi Le did not let Sima Yue lie in the coffin, and ordered people to cut off the coffin and burn the corpse, crush the bones and raise ashes. Subsequently, together with Liu Yuan's Han generals Liu Yao , Hu Yanyan, Wang Mi and others, they successfully captured Luoyang.

was changed to the year, that is, in February of the sixth year of Yongjia (312 AD), Shi Le built a wall in the Gebi area, built a wide range of ships, and prepared to attack Jianye, the political and economic center in Jiangnan.

However, like countless military dialogues between the North and the South in history, the Northern Army has become unacceptable to the local environment.

In the spring of this year, heavy rain fell in the Jianghuai area, and large areas of soldiers in Shile's army fell ill. More than half of the non-combat deaths were killed. Those who were not dying were seriously ill. Those who were not ill were panic, soldiers had no fighting spirit, and the morale of the army was floating.

At this moment, a counselor Zhang Bin came to throw Shi Le, suggesting: "The bronze bird, golden tiger, and ice well in Yecheng are called Santai, which is connected to Pingyang in the west and surrounded by mountains and rivers in four directions. Please manage it with your heart to occupy the area north of the Yellow River . Once the area north of the Yellow River is stable, no one in the world will be right!"

Shi Le heard this and was like seeing the sun, and he followed the plan.

It was under the guidance of Zhang Bin that Shi Le had a strategic policy of forming. Using Xiangguo as the base, he successively destroyed the forces of the Western Jin Dynasty in the north, such as Wang Jun , Shao Xu and Duanpi Pilang , and then annexed Cao Yi , embarking on a path of kingly map hegemony.

Eastern Jin In November of the fourth year of Xianhe (329), Shi Le annexed Guanzhong, took Shangji, and destroyed the former Zhao. Immediately afterwards, he conquered the Dai Kingdom, and unified the entire Northern China except the northwest Liangzhou and the northeast Liaodong , and bounded with the Eastern Jin Dynasty Huai River .

In the fifth year of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (330), Shi Le was called the King of Great Zhao and performed the emperor's affairs. He was later proclaimed to be emperor and changed to the reign of Jianping.

Because the terrain south of the Huai River is low and humid, and the rivers are crossed, it is not suitable for cavalry to gallop. Shi Le also felt that his , Zhao , urgently needed rest, and did not launch a large-scale invasion on the Eastern Jin Dynasty. His achievements have reached their peak.

Shi Lepo was satisfied with this status quo. Once, after drinking, he asked his servant Xu Guang: "Which type of emperor who has created foundations compared to ancient times?"

flattery Xu Guang said flatteringly: "Your Majesty's courage and strategy are better than that of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, and his outstanding talents are better than Emperor Wu of Wei, and his urge to be honest, from the perspective of the minister, since the Three Kings, the only one who is qualified to compare with Your Majesty, is the only Emperor Xuanyuan!"

Shi Le was stunned by this flattery and was overjoyed.

wait until the fart gradually dissipated, and calmed down, saying, "Your beloved may be too exaggerated, and people still have to be a little self-knowledge. If I meet Emperor Gaozu of Han, I must serve him in the north, and whip him to compete with the people of Han Xin and Peng Yue. If I meet Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu , I should compete with him in the Central Plains, and have a certain degree of superiority. A real man should act with him, just like the sun and the moon, and I will never be like the father and son, who bully him orphans and widows and mothers, and win the world. Therefore, I think that my talents should be between Liu Bang and Liu Xiu, how can I compare with Emperor Xuanyuan?"

The affairs of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are no longer verified. To put it bluntly, Shi Le admired the most in his life as Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang.

He was a slave and was illiterate. He liked to listen to others telling Liu Bang's stories to him.

He likes to listen to Li Shiqi's advice to Liu Bang to establish descendants of the six kingdoms as kings and princes.

Every time I hear Liu Bang preparing to take Li Shiqi's opinion and want to engrave the title, I deliberately pretend to be shocked and scream: "It's over, if you do this, you will lose the world. It's hard to accomplish big things, and it's hard to accomplish big things!" I looked endlessly upset.

and others heard Liu Hou Zhang Liang stop Liu Bang in time, and he pretended to be very prescient and said, "Fortunately, Zhang Liang is here!"

The storyteller should stop when he talked about this, and praised with all his heart: "Your Majesty is much more wise than Emperor Gaozu of Han."

Shi Le smiled satisfiedly.

In fact, Shi Le built a country with a common man and carried a three-foot sword, which is indeed a hero in the world. However, the Later Zhao Empire he established was not only far from being compared with the Western Han and Eastern Han empires. Moreover, the destiny of the Later Zhao Empire was far from comparable to that of the Han Dynasty. The two Han dynasties combined and ruled for more than four hundred years. The Later Zhao Empire died after eight rulers and died in thirty-three years.

Think about it, in thirty-three years, eight emperors appeared like a revolving lantern. How mixed is the political situation

The person who caused this evil result is Shi Le, who claims to be "foresighted".

Shi Le knew that his son was weak and his nephew Shihu was strong, but he was extremely ruthless and extremely dark and did not take any measures. In just two years after his death, all his descendants were slaughtered by Shihu, which was laughed at by the world. When Shi Le's dragon spirit is fierce and full of ambition, Xu Guang once implicitly reminded him: "The crown prince is quiet and gentle, and the king of Zhongshan Shi Hu is cruel and deceitful. Once Your Majesty is the dragon, I am afraid that the country will be in danger. I should gradually seize the authority of the Zhongshan King and let the crown prince participate in the government early."

Crown Prince Shi Hong 's uncle, the right servant Cheng Xia also directly said to Shi Le: "The king of Zhongshan Shi Hu is brave, powerful and wise, and the ministers do not control it. The foundation is He is cruel and arrogant and illegal. His sons are in charge of the military power of the court. Your Majesty is here, so there is nothing to do. You should get rid of it early to ensure the plan of peace in the world."

Shi Le's answer was: "The world is not yet determined now. The prince is young and is about to rely on the assistance of the King of Zhongshan. Moreover, the King of Zhongshan is my closest relative, so how could he do what you said! Hehe, are you worried that with the King of Zhongshan, you will not be able to abdicate power as the uncle of the emperor in the future? "

Look, with this kind of insight, he actually claims that he is smarter than Liu Bang and Liu Xiu.

In fact, Shi Hu's unjust intention is already very obvious.

Shi Le proclaimed himself emperor and gave the title of Great Shanyu to his three sons Shi Hong, and Shi Hu was extremely dissatisfied. Shi Hu said privately: "Since the Lord established the capital and became king in Xiangguo, he has bowed his hands, and has a place to eat and enjoy his achievements. He has gained nothing for nothing. All the charge and siege of cities and land have been handed over to me. For more than 20 years, he has captured Liu Yue in the south, chased Suotou in the north, pacified Liu Lu in the east, and settled Qin Yong in the west, and achieved these achievements. Isn't it entirely up to me, Shi Hu? The title of the Great Shanyu should be awarded to me. The Lord was confused, but he was awarded to the Huangkou child. When he remembered, he taught me. People are angry and can't eat! When the emperor stopped breathing, I will destroy his descendants! "

Shi Hu heard that Cheng Xia was talking bad things to Shi Le, and was furious. In revenge, on a dark and windy night, he sent dozens of strong martial arts men to break into Cheng's mansion, pressed Cheng Xia down and gang-raped his wife and daughter in front of him. After carrying his pants, he did not forget to plunder all the gold, silver and treasures in the mansion.

Speaking of which, since Cheng Xia is the prince's uncle, his wife and daughter are all close relatives of the prince. However, Shi Hu dares to do such things under Shi Le's nose. It can be seen how arrogant, cruel and lawless he is.

What makes people feel incredible is that Shi Le likes Shi Hu because Shi Hu is bloodthirsty, cruel and dares to kill.

Shi Le felt that his nephew killed people like a numb, and everyone in the world was afraid of killing him. He eliminated many enemies for him and was very happy.

He never dreamed that one day, this beloved nephew would lift the butcher's knife towards his descendants.

Shi Le died in the eighth year of Xianhe (333) and was inherited by Prince Shi Hong. The next year, Shi Hu deposed Shi Hong and killed Shi Hong's mother, Empress Dowager Cheng, Shi Hong's brothers, Qin King Shi Hong, and Nanyang King Shi Hui, and others. He called himself the King of Jushi Zhao, and began another debauchery, shameless, bloody and cruel rule in Chinese history.

Ridiculous Shi Le compared himself to Liu Bang and Liu Xiu. In the end, all his descendants were slaughtered by others, becoming a big black humor in history.

Southern Song historian Dai Xi Therefore, he evaluated Shi Le and said: "Shi Le Hu Er, where do you really understand , the Han Emperor Gaozu ? His ability is far worse than Han Xin, , Peng Yue !" (How can you really know the Emperor Gao, especially consider yourself inferior to Han and Peng Guerer!)

Another Southern Song historian , Hu Sansheng said more directly: "Ling wants to drive away the Han Guangwu... He doesn't know the limit!"
