In June of the fourth year of Jianshi, Sun Yijun suddenly appeared in Pingqu, defeating the defenders of Cheng's family and occupying Pingqu.

Sun Yi made a fortune this time. Pingqu was one of the grain storage areas of the Chengjia regime on the eastern front. The warehouses in the city were full of stocks, and there were hundreds of thousands of stones of grain. At this point, Sun Yijun no longer had to worry about military rations.

He rested in Pingqu on the spot, waiting for the subsequent army. Dianjiang, a hundred miles away from Pingqu, sent troops to attack, but was defeated by Sun Yi, and took advantage of the situation to sweep over and break through Dianjiang.

At this point, Sun Yi occupied two cities, occupies the eastern front, and his troops pointed to Jiangzhou from afar. It was the largest city in the eastern part of Yizhou. The city was dangerous and the grain storage was very large.

When the news reached Chengdu, Gongsun Shu was shocked and said, "Where are the soldiers? Why are they like flying generals descending from the sky?" He was worried that Jiangzhou would be in trouble, so he quickly mobilized troops and horses to protect the Jiangzhou front line, which made Ma Yuan on the Western Front much easier.

Ma Yuan and Zhuge Zhi, Tang Jing and others discussed the advance to Mianzhu until late at night. When they returned to the camp, they saw Chen Bao, the captain of the guard sent by the emperor, and took two people to guard outside his tent.

Ma Yuan said: "Isn't it a group of two? Why is there one more today?"

Chen Bao said: "There are many people who have come to surrender these days, and there are many new faces in the camp. Of course, you should be careful."

Ma Yuan stopped talking and went to the account.

He is no longer surprised by Chen Bao and others' personal protection. Anyway, they must be vigilant outside the tent, so it's useless for him to object, so let them go.

Ma Yuan felt that His Majesty the Emperor was wise in everything, and this fact was unreasonable. Just because of his skepticism, he sent someone to protect him day and night, which was a bit of a big deal.

But he could not disobey the sacred order, not to mention that the emperor had a kind heart, and those who were subjects could not be ungrateful.

When Ma Yuan entered the tent, he wrote a memorial with a dim oil lamp to report the progress of the march to His Majesty the Emperor. Then he blew out the lamp and slept in his clothes.

I don’t know how long I slept, but Ma Yuan was woken up by a noise.

He thought it was an enemy attack, so he sat up all of a sudden, but heard a stack of shouts outside the door: "There is an assassin! Hurry up and catch the assassin!"

Ma Yuan sat up from the couch, and just put on his shoes and was about to go down the floor, suddenly he picked up the tent door and Chen Bao walked in, "General, as his Majesty expected, Gongsun Shu did send an assassin, and now we have taken it away!"

His tone was proud, and the implicit meaning was: "Look, you've been guessed by His Majesty the Emperor. You don't believe it if you say it!"

Ma Yuan was very surprised and said, "Bring it in and let me see."

The assassin has a medium figure and an ordinary appearance. He will not let people look at him again even if he is placed in a crowd.

Ma Yuan personally interrogated and found out that the assassin was indeed sent by Gongsun Shu. He pretended to be an enemy who came to surrender and sneaked into the camp. It was not until late at night. Unexpectedly, the guardian of the central army's tent was so tight. In a hurry, he stabbed a blocking guard, but alarmed the others and took him down.

"If it weren't for the day and night of guarding me, I'd be afraid that my life would be lost today." Ma Yuan was a little scared. Even though he had excellent hand fighting skills and outstanding sword skills, he always had to sleep. If someone touched the big tent at night, how could he be able to defend himself?

Ma Yuan added some contempt for Gongsun Shu. This person's behavior is really a villain. Even if he can dominate a corner, how can he compete in the Central Plains and achieve the cause of dominance?

Gongsun Shu was like a star to the sun, completely covered by the light of Emperor Jianshi.

Ma Yuan was glad that he chose the right master, and he became more impressed by His Majesty's actions that were far away thousands of miles away. He sighed to the sky and said, "I am worthy of being the chosen lord of the Heavenly Selected by King Jing of Chengyang. He is so imaginative!"

From then on, the personal guards were fully entrusted to Chen Bao, allowing him to arrange the guards to be on duty at night. At the same time, the emperor expected that he would be assassinated, and the matter of Qianli sent the guards was widely publicized, which has been spread as a beautiful story. His Majesty's miracle had another miracle.

Some things are strange and cannot be explained by common sense. Ma Yuan determined that Liu Yu was the chosen emperor of heaven and gained greater confidence in the destruction of Shu. His confidence was so firm that naturally affected his subordinates. For a moment, the whole army thought that this would win, and they would definitely be able to defeat Gongsun Shu and return home in triumphantly.

Everything is also developing in a positive direction. The Mianzhu defense line that has prevented them from being blocked for more than a month suddenly loosened, and generals secretly came to contact and surrender.

Ma Yuan took him as his internal response and launched a sudden attack, defeating the enemy in front of him in one fell swoop, opening the road to Chengdu.

Gongsun Shu was shocked and sent a large number of soldiers to obtain 140,000 troops. He ordered Gongsun Hui to rebuild the defense line north of Chengdu. The entire Shu area became nervous. During the melee of the Central Plains, the city of Chengdu, which had always been peaceful, suddenly storms were coming, and people were panic.

Gongsun Shu was very superstitious and believed in prophecies. He would first divine things whenever there was a major event and ask God for his will. Even if he was called emperor, he also came from the so-called prophecies.

When Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, Gongsun Shu was appointed as the prefect of Shu County, and he managed Shu County well and always had the name of a capable official. In the late Wang Mang, the world was in chaos and the county was in power. Gongsun Shu claimed to be the general of the Han Dynasty and the governor of Yizhou, protecting the territory and ensuring the people, so that Shu County would remain stable.

After Emperor Gengshi ascended the throne, he sent Zhugong Marquis Li Bao and Yizhou Governor Zhang Zhong to lead his army to attack. Gongsun Shu relied on the dangerous terrain of Shu and defended himself. He defeated Li Bao and Zhang Zhong and drove them out of Shu.

At this time, Gongcao Li Xiong advised him to proclaim himself the King of Shu. Gongsun Shu asked someone to make a fortune, and the emperor was very lucky, so he proclaimed himself the King of Shu and separatisted the county of Shu.

Shu was fertile and rich, with strong military strength. Most of the scholars and citizens from far away came to submit. The chiefs of the Qiong and Zuo tribes in the southwest came to contribute. Li Xiong once again urged Gongsun Shu to be the emperor. Gongsun Shu hesitated. After all, being an emperor is a matter of advancing and not retreating.

The most important thing is that Gongsun Shu believed that the emperor came from the destiny of heaven and was suspicious of whether he had a destiny, which shows that he was still self-aware and worried that he would not have the blessing of being an emperor.

At this time, he had a dream, and someone said to him: "The eight-pointed sub-group is twelve."

After waking up, Gongsun Shu thought about it. The Bajizi family is not the word Gongsun? He thought that this sentence means that he has the destiny to be an emperor, but "twelve periods" means to be an emperor for twelve years. Isn't this a bit too short?

Gongsun Shu told his wife about this. His wife wanted to be the queen very much and said, "I will die in the morning and evening, let alone you be the emperor for twelve years? It's not short, twelve years are long."

It happened that a big snake crawled out of the government office the next day and left. Everyone was shocked and said it was a dragon. After hearing this, Gongsun Shu had no doubts and believed that he would be the emperor according to the decree of heaven, otherwise he would suffer disaster.

Therefore, before Liu Xiu became emperor in Hebei and Liu Penzi Zheng County became emperor, Gongsun Shu had already established himself as the emperor in Chengdu, claiming to be the "Baidi". His country was named Chengjia and his reign was Longxing. He appointed Li Xiong as the Grand Situ, with his younger brother Gongsun Guang as the Grand Sima and Gongsun Hui as the Grand Sikong.

Gongsun Shu was so superstitious and believed in the art of prophecies and divination. Now that the army of Emperor Jianshi was approaching Shu County, he of course had to make a fortune and a fortune.
