Zhou Yafu, a rare general in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, had a bad ending.

Zhou Yafu was a pillar in the mid-Western Han Dynasty. Without him, I'm afraid the Western Han Dynasty would fall into a situation of disintegration and feud. The military commanders who have made great contributions in the past dynasties have basically not achieved very good results, because their ability to lead troops to fight is too outstanding, which means that the real power of the emperor is threatened, and they can easily cover the Lord with high political achievements. In the end, Zhou Yafu also failed to escape this historical law.

First, life resume

Zhou Yafu has a good background, but his father is a famous Zhou Bo. The main achievement in the later period was to destroy Lv Hou and support Wendi, so Wendi was very kind to his family. But then again, Zhou Yafu is not the eldest son of frequency, that is to say, if in the order of reuse, the first one to be reused should be the eldest son of frequency. Zhou Bo has three sons. The eldest son is Zhou Sheng. Originally, he inherited all the official positions of Zhou Bo, but this son was restless, killed someone and was finally sentenced to death. The second son is today's protagonist Zhou Bo, and the third son Zhou Jian did not leave much deeds in history.

Second, allow negative aspects.

This Xu negative was a famous fortune teller at that time, which is strange to say. In ancient times, this Daoism was mainly mastered by men, such as Yuan Tiangang and Li. Although Xu negative is a woman, her fortune-telling ability is notoriously good. Xu negative face to Zhou Yafu, and said three words. The first sentence is to predict that Zhou Yafu will inherit his father's title in the future, the second sentence is that there will be big ministers in the future, and the third sentence is that the final cause of death is starvation. Zhou Yafu thought this was nonsense. First of all, how can he feel that he has inherited the title? In ancient times, Zhou Sheng should inherit it. Even if Chow Sang has a problem, he still has his son, so he can't inherit it himself. Two or three sentences are even more outrageous. In the end, no one and his officials starved to death.

This prediction seems outrageous, but it turns out that what Xu Fu said is not bad at all, even the time nodes are consistent. When Zhou Yafu inherited his father's title, he began to feel that things were a bit outrageous, just like what Chui fook actually said.

Third, fine willow training.

Of all the enemies in the Han Dynasty, Xiongnu was the biggest one. Even the founding monarch who was stronger than Liu Bang was almost killed by Xiongnu, so many famous soldiers in the Han Dynasty were reused because of the invasion of Xiongnu. During the reign of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, the Huns invaded again, so three generals led three armies stationed near Chang 'an, one in Ba, one in Ximen and one in Liu Xi, Zhou Yafu. Since it is near Chang 'an, it is inevitable that the emperor will go down to express his condolences to the soldiers and say a few words to boost morale. At first we went to Bashang, and then to Zhaimen. The defenders of these two places saw Wendi coming and let him go without saying anything. The generals of the two places obviously felt nervous about Wendi and didn't know it. When Jingdi was inspecting, the two generals also conducted a military parade with great fanfare.

Then Jingdi came to Liu Xi, where Zhou Yafu was located, and the messenger who came to report was stopped at the gate of the military camp. Deng Wendi's men naturally showed their identity rudely. If the soldiers among ordinary people were expected to be scared, they immediately knelt down and apologized, but the soldiers refused directly and told those who came to report that they would not open the door unless Jeff was brought to prove it. The messenger had no choice but to go back and wait for Wendi Deng herself. When Wendi arrived, Zhou Yafu didn't come to meet him directly, but let the soldiers lead Wendi to the tent. He is a wise king, which is a good thing. If he is a big-tempered and fatuous master, I'm afraid Zhou Yafu will fall to the ground. On the way to Zhou Yafu's tent, the soldiers kept telling me that horses were not allowed to gallop here, so I had to walk slowly. Before the account, Zhou Yafu, dressed in military uniform, saluted Wendi. At this time, if Wendi says that he is guilty or neglects the monarch, it is also a matter of one sentence to sentence him to deprivation of official position. But Emperor Wendi was very happy, thinking that this army, under the guidance of Zhou Yafu, was disciplined and orderly. If it met the enemy, it would certainly be able to go up and down Qi Xin and win with preparation.

Summary: Since then, the image of Zhou Yafu's strict army has been deeply rooted in Emperor Wen's mind. This time, the military parade in Liu Xi really put Zhou Yafu on the historical stage.

Fourth, the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms.

At that time, Liu Meng launched a rebellion with seven countries under the banner of the so-called Jun Qing side. In fact, he took a fancy to such a position. The emperor at that time was Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty. Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty knew that Zhou Yafu had a good command of the army and it was after the frequency, so he was the most suitable commander in chief of the three armed forces.

At that time, the rebels were fighting Liang, and the small Liang could not resist the Seven-Power Allied Forces, so he asked Emperor Han Jing to come to the rescue. Zhou Yafu was the commander in chief at that time. Although Liang has been asking for help, Zhou Yafu didn't go because Zhou Yafu thought he couldn't. The fighting capacity of the Seven-Power Allied Forces should not be underestimated. There is no chance to attack directly from the front, and he intends to interrupt the supply of food and grass for the Seven-Power Allied Forces first. In fact, in ancient times, many battles were won by destroying each other's food supply, such as the battle of Guandu. So judging from the situation at that time, Zhou Yafu's decision was right. When the rebels saw that Zhou Yafu had been targeting his grain delivery troops, they decided to solve Zhou Yafu first. The rebels feinted from the southeast and were caught by Zhou Yafu, so Zhou Yafu arranged troops in the northwest in advance, which made the rebels panic and flee everywhere. Not long after, Liu Bi was killed and the rebellion ended.

Verb (short for verb) tragic ending

Such a hero, the final outcome is very sad. At that time, Zhou Yafu was old, and his son prepared funeral supplies in advance. One of them, Jia Dun, was forbidden. After being reported, the court sent someone to interrogate Zhou Yafu. Zhou Yafu himself knew nothing about this, so he basically didn't know the answer. He thought it was a sacrifice and had nothing to do with the rebellion. As a result, the interrogator sarcastically said that it was either rebellion from the dead or rebellion in the underworld, which had to be said to have a lot to do with his offending Emperor Han Jing. If Zhou Yafu is still hated in front of the emperor, then the interrogators certainly dare not be so presumptuous. Zhou Yafu couldn't stand such slander, and finally died of hunger strike.

Summary: Every word of Xu Fu came true, and Zhou Yafu stabilized the shaky Han Dynasty again, which led to the later rule of Wenjing. Otherwise, the existence of the Han Dynasty is a problem. It was such a generation of famous soldiers that they were finally embarrassed, but later generations spoke highly of them. In the Tang Dynasty, they were listed as sixty-four famous soldiers and enshrined for generations.
