Wuhu Chaohua is the darkest page in the history of Chinese civilization, and one of the most ferocious ethnic minorities in Wuhu is the Qi, who are likely to be an Indo-European nomadic people who originated on the north shore of the Black Sea, and are authentic Caucasians. Later, as a slave of the Xiongnu, he entered northern Shanxi. Later, he followed the Xiongnu south, and in the Central Plains Wuhu Struggle, Shi Le, the leader of the Xiongnu clan, eventually killed the Xiongnu Former Zhao and established his own regime, Later Zhao. The Qiang people are an extremely barbaric and uncivilized nation, marching and fighting never bring grain and grass, using Han maidens as military food, committing adultery at night, killing during the day as rations to eat, it can be said that the Qiang people are simply beasts walking on two legs. After Shi Le's death, Shi Hu succeeded to the throne, And Shi Hu was even more ferocious, not treating the Han people as people at all, abducting 100,000 Han women into the harem, constantly apportioning labor and military service, and the people were miserable, selling their children and selling their daughters. According to the records of the Chenghan emissaries who sent out later Zhao at that time, the trees in Later Zhao were full of people who could not bear to endure torture and suicide.
Later Zhao Emperor Shi Hu
It can be said that the Han people in the territory of Hou Zhao were oppressed and lived in the depths of the waters. After Shi Hu's death, he was succeeded by his youngest son Shi Shi, which caused dissatisfaction among another son, Shi Zun, who joined forces with Shi Hu's adopted grandson Ran Min (then known as Shi Min) to take the throne in the capital Yecheng. Shi Zun originally promised Ran Min the position of crown prince in order to make ran min sell his life, but after the fact, Shi Zun reneged on his promise to make his son the crown prince, which caused Ran Min's dissatisfaction. The contradiction between the two grew wider and wider, and Shi Zun summoned a meeting of the members of the Later Zhao royal family to get rid of Ran Min, and Shi Zun's mother, Empress Zheng, did not agree because she grew up watching Ran Min grow up, and Shi Zun had to give up. As a result, Shi Jian, the third son of Shi Hu, who participated in the meeting, also wanted to become emperor, so he secretly sent someone to inform Ran Min. When Ran Min knew this, he was furious and sent the generals Zhou Cheng and Su Hai to rush into the palace and kill them, killing Shi Zun and some members of the royal family, and Empress Zheng was also killed by the rebels (Empress Zheng was wronged). Afterwards, Ran Min supported Shi Jian to become emperor, Shi Jian made Ran Min a great general, Li Nong (also from the Beggar Army, and was a colleague of Ran Min's father and grandfather) became the Grand Sima and Ran Min quelled some rebellions by members of the Stone Chamber in Later Zhao, firmly grasping the situation in Later Zhao, and Later Zhao Emperor Shi Jian also became a puppet emperor.
Ten thousand enemies Ran Min
Later Zhao was originally a regime established by the Qiang people, and now ran Min and Li Nong, who were from the Han ethnic group, held great power, and the Nobles of the Qiang Clan could not sit still, and Shi Jian was not willing to be a puppet. Therefore, Shi Jian and the Later Zhao Generals Sun Fudu and Liu Zhu conspired to ambush three thousand Warriors of the Qi clan at the Hu Tiandian (the place where the People of The Qiang people sacrificed to heaven), and when Ran Min and Li Nong entered the palace, they killed all of Ran Min and his entourage. Later, Ran Min and Li Nong did bring some of their own soldiers into the palace, and when they entered the Hu Tiandian Temple, all the three thousand warriors of the Ambush clan came out and surrounded Ran Min and his party. This plan seems to be very successful on the surface, but the only thing that is not calculated is that Ran Min and his Han generals have amazing combat effectiveness, Ran Min himself is brave and good at war, known as a ten thousand enemies (it is a real ten thousand enemies, not the ten thousand enemies in the novel), and his relatives are also Han warriors who are one of the hundreds, and the result is that three thousand Warriors of the Three Thousand Qiang Clan killed for half a day and did not kill Ran Min and his party who only had more than a hundred relatives. Later, Ran Min's men led people to kill, the situation was instantly one-sided, Sun Fudu and the three thousand warriors of the Qiang clan were all killed, the scene was bloodied, and Hou Zhao's palace became a morgue. The assassination completely angered Ran Min, who immediately imprisoned the Later Zhao emperor Shi Jian, and then ordered that "the six yi inside and outside, those who dare to carry the staff should be beheaded", that is, the ethnic minorities dared to kill all of them with weapons. Later Zhao was originally a regime established by ethnic minorities, and Ran Min's order made the Qi people feel that a catastrophe was coming, so they fled from Yecheng, while the surrounding Han people poured into the city. Ran Min saw that the People of The Qiang clan would not support themselves at all, and that staying would cause endless harm, so he angrily issued an order to kill Hu " Inside and outside the Zhao people, behead a Hu head and send Fengyang Gate, civilian officials to the third rank, and military officials to worship the Yamen", which means that all Han people, who behead a Hu person, are promoted to a knight by virtue of their heads. The Han people who were previously oppressed by the Karma clan instantly erupted like a volcano, and when they used their weapons, they slashed and killed the Qiang people, countless Karma people fell to the ground, tens of thousands of Karma people were killed in one day, Ran Min also personally led the army to massacre the Qiang people, it is estimated that at that time, more than 200,000 Qiang people were killed in The Territory of Later Zhao, and the Qiang people were basically slaughtered. Ran Min, who had killed the red-eyed, killed the Later Zhao emperor Shi Jian and killed all of Shi Hu's descendants, and finally proclaimed himself emperor to establish the Ran Wei regime.
