In the long river of Chinese history, war is the most recorded in the history books, and in the chaotic situation of division, war is more frequent. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties period, because of the continuous wars, this knowledge of wars and chaos was not well known, and the records of this period in history textbooks were also very few, but the disputes between the princely kingdoms during the Southern and Northern Dynasties period were actually no less than those in the Three Kingdoms period. And in the Southern Dynasty there was a founding emperor, who came from a poor background but became the king of a country, and this emperor was
Chen Baxian
。
From the name of Baxian, it can be known that he must have a hegemony. Chen Baxian's living environment when he was a child was very difficult, and he began to fish to earn money to subsidize his family when he was very young. It was good to be able to feed his stomach in the chaotic world, but he not only read and write, but also knew a few tricks of kung fu, so Chen Baxian was respected by the township. Later, Chen Baxian was recommended as a small official in charge of the oil depot, and Chen Baxian became this small official in order to be able to subsidize more families. Later, an official with a strong background came to the county seat where he lived, and this official was Xiao Ying. After the two of them met, Xiao Ying thought that Chen Baxian was a talent, so he reused Chen Baxian and let Chen Baxian go to his house as an errand boy first.
Xiao Ying is the uncle of the current emperor, and although his current position is only a history of assassination, his identity as an imperial uncle will never change. Later, guangzhou lacked officials to take care of it, and Emperor Wu of Liang thought of Xiao Ying, so he ordered Xiao Ying to take over Guangzhou. Although Xiao Ying was the emperor's uncle, he also obeyed the emperor's orders, and immediately after he set off, he also mobilized Chen Baxian to go with him, and later he also played Emperor Liangwu and sealed Chen Baxian to join the army for Guangzhou, so Chen Baxian was promoted. Xiao Ying was a talent, the Guangzhou he took care of was orderly, there were no thieves and rebels in Guangzhou, but he knew that Chen Baxian had a good skill that could not fade away so comfortably.
Xiao Ying again recommended Chen Baxian to Emperor Wu of Liang, so Chen Baxian was promoted to the post of Governor of Xijiang. However, not long after Chen Baxian left, Guangzhou was surrounded by rebels. At that time, Li Ben of Jiaozhou launched a coup d'état and also drove out the assassins and officials of Jiaozhou, and Emperor Wu of Liang immediately ordered the two states of Xinzhou and Gaozhou to send troops to attack Li Ben, but often did not expect that the troops of these two states failed to capture the land of Jiaozhou, and the confrontation lasted longer and longer. Emperor Wu of Liang was very angry, so he wanted to kill Lu Zixiong, the assassin of Xinzhou, kill the chicken and the monkey, and ordered the soldiers to escort Lu Zixiong to Guangzhou to be beheaded by Xiao Ying. However, Lu Zixiong's former subordinates were very loyal to him, so they planned to launch a rebellion and kidnap Lu Zixiong in Guangzhou, and they surrounded Guangzhou.
When the situation in Guangzhou was critical, Chen Baxian did not forget Xiao Ying's kindness and led his army to Rush to Guangzhou day and night to save his master, and later Chen Baxian repelled the enemy and relieved Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying was very grateful to Chen Baxian, so he once again recommended him to Emperor Wu of Liang, but Xiao Ying died of illness shortly after. Later, Chen Baxian was promoted to Sima Da and was also entrusted with the important task of attacking Li Ben in Jiaozhou. Chen Baxian and Yang Rifeng fought for three years and finally killed Li Ben. However, Emperor Wu of Liang lured the wolf into the room, and was eventually starved to death by Hou Jinghuo. Hou Jing indirectly controlled the entire dynasty with the help of Crown Prince Xiao Gang, and Hou Jing's move was definitely resisted by other royal families.
Among the troops against Hou Jing, Xiao Xuan, the king of Xiangdong, was the most powerful, so Chen Baxian surrendered to him, and later Chen Baxian jointly defeated Hou Jing and took back the Liang Dynasty for the Xiao family, and Xiao Xuan, the king of Xiangdong, was also recommended as emperor. However, Xiao Yi was killed by Western Wei because of the mistake of Dingdu, and the imperial court was once again in chaos, and Chen Baxian and the powerful minister Wang Shengquan fought for the power of the dynasty, and in the end, Chen Baxian defeated Wang Shengxian and ended up. Chen Ba successively replaced Southern Liang, established the State of Chen, and became the new monarch of a state.
