When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!

"More than a thousand stones!"

Emperor Jing of Han and Chao Cuo were stunned.

It’s hard to imagine that one truck can carry so much food.

If it were used for marching and fighting, wouldn't it save a large number of civilians?

During ancient military campaigns, sometimes the number of laborers transporting food was even greater than the number of soldiers fighting.

"Can it still run so fast after loading it with food?" Emperor Jing of Han asked after swallowing.

"Of course you can. It just consumes more fuel when it is fully loaded than when it is empty." Emperor Wu of Han also had quite a few cars, and he himself had a small truck.

Chao Cuo stroked his beard and said, "Great, it's really amazing. Such a fast speed is most suitable for transporting food and soldiers. Your Majesty, the seven kings are rebelling, and the soldiers are going to war. Perhaps this can be used to transport soldiers and food!"

Emperor Jing of Han nodded and agreed very much.

It runs faster than a horse and pulls more. Moreover, two people sitting in the cart don’t feel tired at all and it seems like they can sit there for a whole day without any problem.

Emperor Wu of Han was stunned for a moment: "Father, has the Seven Kings Rebellion just begun in your place?"

"Yes, I planned to reduce the power of the princes, but those princes just started a rebellion. If things go wrong, the Han Dynasty might fall apart." Emperor Jing of Han said angrily.

Emperor Wu of Han looked at Chao Cuo.

According to Emperor Wu of Han, Chao Cuo was beheaded not long after the Rebellion of the Seven Kings broke out in order to quell the anger of the vassal kings.

It was a good idea, but it didn't have much effect. The fight still happened.

Now Chao Cuo is still alive, which means that the Rebellion of the Seven Kings has just begun.

Emperor Jing of Han suddenly thought of something: "Didn't you say that you are the next emperor after me? Then you should know about this matter. Can you tell me what happened later?"

"Father, do you really want to know?" Emperor Wu of Han asked softly.

"Nonsense, if I don't want to know, why would I ask you!"

Emperor Wu of Han took a deep breath and took out his cell phone.

When I was in Dahan, it was just used as an alarm clock, taking photos and recording videos. It was not very useful, just convenient.

But it's different here.

If you have a card and a monthly subscription, you can access the Internet.

Emperor Wu of Han opened his browser and searched the Internet.

Put down the phone after a moment.

He took a deep breath and said, "We won!"

Zhu Ming shuddered when he heard this and almost crashed his car.

As for this answer, Zhu Ming did not believe that Emperor Wu of Han did not know it and still needed to search for it.

Emperor Jing of Han was stunned for a moment: "That's it, can't you be more specific?"

Chao Cuo suddenly felt that if everything he saw was true, the next emperor might be a fool.

Do you want to give some advice? Never make the other party the crown prince when the time comes.

Emperor Wu of Han said to Zhu Ming, "Xiao Zhu, help me charge my phone. It's out of power. Please tell me the specific situation."

Zhu Ming turned on the voicemail, asked his phone to search for information about the Rebellion of the Seven Kings, and then played it.

Soon, a voice came from the phone.

This scared both Emperor Jing of Han and Chao Cuo.

He stared at his phone in disbelief.

"Who is speaking!"

"This thing can talk?"

It's normal for things to make sounds.

It is unbelievable that a dead object can speak with clear pronunciation and articulation.

It was a little beyond the two people's imagination.

Emperor Wu of Han smiled and explained to the two: "Father, this is a daily necessity in the Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years later. It is called a mobile phone. Almost everyone has one. It can read out the information searched on the Internet. If you encounter it for the first time, it is indeed surprising, but in this era, it has become commonplace."

"What does it mean to search for information online?" asked Emperor Jing of Han in confusion.

"A network is a network. Father, you can understand it this way. It is equivalent to our library. When you need to look through the bamboo slips, a eunuch can quickly find the bamboo slips you need and help you read them."

Emperor Jing of Han nodded slightly, as if he understood.

The phone continued playing.

The Rebellion of the Seven States was a rebellion of vassal states during the reign of Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty.

The seven vassal states that participated in the rebellion included Wu, Chu, Zhao, Jinan, Zibo, Jiaoxi, and Jiaodong, so it was called the "Rebellion of the Seven States", also known as the "Rebellion of the Seven Kings of Wu and Chu" and the "Rebellion of the Seven Kings".

During the reign of Emperor Wen of Han, the state gave up the right to mint coins, resulting in currency disunity and decentralized coinage rights in the Western Han Dynasty. This led to local princes (such as King Liu Bi of Wu) mining copper mountains to mint coins, which in turn enabled them to compete with the central government in economic strength, posing a great threat to the unified situation.

After Emperor Jing of Han ascended the throne, the Imperial Censor Chao Cuo proposed weakening the power of the princes and strengthening central authority.

You know, King Liu Bi of Wu had been dissatisfied for a long time.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xian, the crown prince of Wu, entered the court and was able to accompany the crown prince Liu Qi (later Emperor Jing of Han) to drink and have fun.

When Prince Wu was playing gambling with the crown prince, Prince Wu competed for victory on the chess table with a disrespectful attitude. Prince Liu Qi was angry and picked up the chessboard and smashed Prince Wu's head, killing him on the spot.

After his son was mistakenly killed by Crown Prince Liu Qi, the King of Wu no longer followed the etiquette of the princes to the emperor and refused to attend court due to illness. The court thought that he was sick because of the loss of his son, but after investigation, it was confirmed that the King of Wu was not ill, so the envoy of Wu was detained.

However, Emperor Wen of Han did not punish the King of Wu, but a rift had already arisen between the King of Wu and the imperial court.

When Emperor Jing of Han heard this, he touched his nose, thought of this incident, and cursed the King of Wu in his heart, saying that spoiling a son is like killing him. A prince of Wu was pretending to be powerful in front of my prince, clamoring to fight if he didn't obey. I thought he was so good at fighting, but who knew he was so weak and was defeated in a flash.

For this, I was beaten by my father, and it still hurts when I think about it now.

Emperor Wu of Han looked at his father with envy. He was not so powerful when he was a child. The sons of those princes would at most be beaten up, but they did not dare to kill them.

The phone continues to play:

After Liu Qi, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, came to the throne, the contradiction between the central autocratic imperial power and the power of local vassal states increasingly intensified. Chao Cuo, the imperial censor, began to plan with Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty to reduce the vassal state.

In the second year of Emperor Jingdi's reign, Chao Cuo presented the "Strategy for Reducing the Power of the Princes" to Emperor Jingdi, again listing the crimes of the princes and requesting the reduction of their fiefs and the recovery of the neighboring counties. When the King of Chu came to the court, Chao Cuo took the opportunity to say that the King of Chu, Liu Wu, had secretly committed adultery while mourning for the Queen Mother Bo, and requested that he be executed.

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to pardon capital crimes and reduced Donghai County as punishment; King Liu Sui of Zhao was found guilty two years ago and cut off his Hejian County; King Liu Xun of Jiaoxi cut off six counties because of fraud in the sale of titles; then Emperor Jing also Discuss with the ministers the matter of seizing the fiefdom of Wu King Liu Bi.

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty's move to cut down vassal vassals caused a great shock in the government and the public. Wu King Liu Bi was worried that the land cutting would be endless, so he wanted to rebel, so he went to Jiaoxi in person and made an agreement with Jiaoxi King Liu Xin to rebel against the Han Dynasty. Wu Wang Divide the world with Jiaoxi and rule.

Liu Ang agreed to the rebellion and agreed with his brothers and other kings of the old Qi Kingdom to rebel against the Han Dynasty. At the same time, King Liu Bi of Wu also sent people to the states of Chu, Zhao, and Huainan to conspire and agree to raise an army.

Soon, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to seize the Zhangjun and Kuaiji counties of Wu King Liu Bi.

The edict was passed to the State of Wu, and King Liu Bi of Wu immediately murdered all the Han officials in the State of Wu who were under 2,000 shi. They colluded with King Liu Wu of Chu, King Liu Sui of Zhao, King Liu Biguang of Jinan, King Liu Xian of Zichuan, and King Liu of Jiaoxi. Liu Xiongqu, the king of Jiaodong, and other six kings openly rebelled.

Liu Bi recruited all the men in his fiefdom who were between 14 and 60 years old into the army, gathering more than people. He also sent people to collude with the nobles of the Xiongnu, Dongyue, and Minyue. With the slogan of "please kill Chao Cuo and clear the court", he led his troops westward, thus starting the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu in the history of the Western Han Dynasty.

For a time, the world was in chaos and war.

The rebels were so powerful that they quickly swept across large areas of land.

The imperial court would naturally not sit idly by and watch the rebels grow stronger.

Emperor Jing of Han acted promptly and appointed Zhou Yafu as Grand Marshal to lead a large army to quell the rebellion.

Yuan Ang, who once served as the prime minister of the Wu Kingdom, suggested to Emperor Jing that he kill Chao Cuo to satisfy the rebels' demand of "clearing the court" in exchange for their withdrawal.

The rebels were so powerful that Emperor Jingdi thought about it and adopted Yuan Ang's plan. He appointed Yuan Ang as Minister of Rites and asked him to secretly pack his luggage and go on a diplomatic mission to the State of Wu.

More than ten days after Yuan An offered his advice, Prime Minister Tao Qing, Lieutenant Chen Jia, and Ting Lieutenant Zhang Ou jointly submitted a letter to impeach Chao Cuo and proposed that Chao Cuo be executed.

Emperor Jing approved this memorial and cut Chao Cuo in half in Dongshi.

He thought he could calm the anger of the vassal kings and stop the war in the Han Dynasty.

Unfortunately it backfired.

Killing Chao Cuo did not stop the seven-nation army's offensive. Instead, the seven-nation coalition believed that Emperor Jing was weak and incompetent. So Liu Bi proclaimed himself the Eastern Emperor, confronted the Western Han regime, and refused to see Yuan Ang.

Only then did Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty make up his mind to suppress the rebellion with force. He sent Taiwei Zhou Yafu and thirty-six generals to lead troops to resist the Wu-Chu coalition. He sent Qu Zhouhou Li Ji to lead troops to attack Zhao, and Luan Bu attacked the traitors in Qi. General Dou Ying was stationed in Xingyang to monitor the movements of Qi and Zhao.

As Chao Cuo listened, he felt a chill on his neck and could not help but touch it.

His eyes were fixed on Emperor Jing of Han.

"Your Majesty, did Yuan Ang really propose this to you?"

Chao Cuo had no doubts.

What was said before was all correct, and he also knew that Yuan Ang went to see His Majesty, talked for a long time, and then left quietly. Moreover, some ministers looked at him with something wrong in their eyes in the past few days.

Based on his understanding of Emperor Jing of Han, he felt that it was possible that he would be killed in order to force the seven kings to withdraw their troops.

Emperor Jing of Han remained expressionless, but he cursed in his heart, saying that there was no need to talk about such unimportant things.

Chao Cuo might have just been suspicious, but Emperor Jing of Han knew that he really intended to kill Chao Cuo.

Prime Minister Tao Qing, Lieutenant Chen Jia, and Court Justice Zhang Ou were all people he arranged to frame Chao Cuo for crimes.

Anyone who can stand on top of him must have some problems.

Even if nothing happens to you, there will always be a few bullies among your family members or servants, and you can always find them if you want.

Moreover, before appearing in later generations, he was planning to take Chao Cuo out for a big meal as a farewell.

However, he did not expect that, according to what was said in the phone, killing Chao Cuo did not play any role at all, and Emperor Jing of Han cursed Yuan Ang in his heart, saying that Yuan Ang only came up with some bad ideas and caused him to lose a think tank.

Now it is even more unacceptable.

"It's fake, all fake. This is slandering me. How could I do something to Master Chao? Although you and I are the king and the minister, we are also teachers and friends. How could I do something that would make my relatives sad and my enemies happy? The historian must have something against me and deliberately slandered me! I can guarantee here that as long as Master Chao does not commit an unforgivable crime, Master Chao will never be killed while I am alive!"

As long as I don't admit it, it's fake.

Even if this place is really two thousand years after the Han Dynasty, it is still this era.

In my own country, things have not happened yet and will not happen in the future. Why should I acknowledge something that has not happened!

Chao Cuo rolled his eyes fiercely, thinking to himself: You keep saying that I am both your teacher and friend, but I know you better than you can imagine. Just looking at your expression at this moment, I, an old minister, can easily tell the truth from the falsehood with just a little observation.

I cursed in my heart, the foolish and unjust monarch, the cruel and inhumane tyrant, just as the saying goes, "When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked; when the birds are all gone, the good bows are put away", which describes exactly people like you.

Of course, these words of resentment can only be hidden deep in the heart, but on the surface, one must pretend to be passionate and generous, as if meeting a wise master: "I am sincerely grateful for your majesty's grace. Since your majesty has given me such golden words, I will not refuse even if it means going through mountains of swords and seas of fire!"

Play again on mobile phone:

Zhou Yafu led the Han army to station in Changyi, north of Liang State. He ignored the urgent attacks on Liang State by the Wu and Chu armies, but instead marched south with a light force, seized the mouth of the Si River where it flows into the Huai River, cut off the food supply of the Wu and Chu armies, and put them in a difficult situation.

The Wu army was mostly composed of infantry, which was advantageous for traversing rugged terrain; the Han army was mostly composed of chariots and cavalry, which was advantageous for traversing flat terrain.

The battle was fought on the plains north of the Huai River, putting the Wu army at a disadvantage.

The State of Liang also held on to Suiyang, preventing the Wu army from crossing.

The Wu army marched north to Zhou Yafu's camp in Xiayi to seek battle, but was defeated and suffered heavy casualties.

Zhou Yafu sent elite troops to pursue him, but King Liu Bi of Wu fled all the way to Dantu, south of the Yangtze River, with thousands of people.

The Han Dynasty sent people to instigate the Dongyue people in the Wu army to rebel against Wu, and the King of Wu was killed.

King Liu Wu of Chu and other kings who took part in the rebellion either committed suicide or were killed due to their defeat.

The rebellion of the Seven States of Wu and Chu, which lasted for three months, was completely put down, and all seven kings died!
After the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms was quelled, the power of the princes with the same surname suffered a fatal blow.

Emperor Jingdi of Han took advantage of the situation to seize the branch counties and border counties of various vassal states and bring them to the imperial court. He also took further measures to weaken the power of the princes in order to strengthen the central power: he continued to implement the plan of "establishing many princes and reducing their power", and successively enfeoffed the princes as princes;
The princes were no longer allowed to govern their fiefdoms, and officials were sent by the emperor.
He reformed the official system of the vassal states, changed the prime minister to chancellor, dismissed most officials such as the Imperial Censor, and made the vassal kings lose their political power;

It was stipulated that the princes could not govern their own countries, had no right to interfere in the political affairs of their fiefdoms, and could only collect rent and taxes from the countries as salaries according to the amount stipulated by the court.

The situation in which the princes were powerful and difficult to govern was greatly changed, which further strengthened the unity and consolidated the centralization of power.

This made the Western Han Dynasty increasingly powerful, and the Han people's counterattack against the Xiongnu gradually began, which had outstanding effects on social and economic development and political stability.

Emperor Jing of Han's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Good!"

Chao Cuo stroked his beard and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, for completely solving this stubborn problem of the kingdom within the kingdoms!"

Emperor Wu of Han said happily: "Thank you, Father. Otherwise, this would be my business. However, Father did not believe that this place was two thousand years later. Father, do you think it is possible that we are deceiving you?"

As soon as this question was asked, the laughter stopped abruptly.

Emperor Jing of Han was so upset that a word immediately popped up in his mind: rebellious son! (End of this chapter)
