During the Southern Liang period, Hou Jing rebelled and was crusaded against by Chen Baxian and others, so Hou Jing imprisoned Chen Baxian's nephew Chen Qian, and tried to harm him several times without success. Hou Jing's military advisor Wang Wei had a subordinate named Hua Jiao, who was originally the commander of the Southern Liang Dynasty and was very good to Chen Qian.
After Hou Jing was pacified, Chen Qian served as Wu Xing's Taishou and appointed Hua Jiao as the secretary of the capital, and he was responsible for the food and clothing of the government office.
Hua Jiaozu has been a petty official for generations, and he himself is smart and diligent in clerical work.
Chen Baxian killed the general Wang Sengbi in order to seize power, and Wang Sengbi's son-in-law Wu Xing was too guarded by Du Niche to disobey the order and was pacified by Chen Qian. Chen Qian still gave Hua Jiao people and continued to serve as the secretary of the capital.
Hua Jiao can govern and educate his subordinates. After the war, the people fell into famine, Hua Jiao cared for them, distributed food, and was promoted to the county magistrate of Jiyang and Shanyin counties.
Chen Ba's first Liang established the Southern Dynasty Chen for Emperor Wu of Chen; After his death, Chen Qian succeeded to the throne as Emperor Wen Chen, and Hua Jiao was given the title of General Kaiyuan and General of the Left Army; In the first year of Tianjia (560), he was awarded the title of Huairen County Bo, and there were 400 households in the city.
Wang Lin, the old general of the Southern Liang, was unwilling to be destroyed by the Liang Dynasty, and with the support of the Northern Qi Dynasty, he supported the grandson of Emperor Yuan of Liang in Yingzhou, Yongjia Wang Xiaozhuang, and occupied the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which was the Eastern Liang; He went east to attack Southern Chen, and Hua Jiao accompanied Chen's general Hou Yao to defend.
After Wang Lin was defeated, Hua Jiaozhen guarded Huangcheng and Zhijiang Prefecture.
At that time, most of the local governors of Nanzhou were local heroes, and they did not abide by the imperial court decrees, and Emperor Chen Wendi ordered Hua Jiao to use criminal law to govern, and as a result, many old generals under Wang Lin's command were appeased.
In the third year of Tianjia (562), Hua Jiao was removed from the Leave Festival, Tongzhi Sancai Changshou, General Renwu, Xinzhou Assassin History, and Jiangzhou, and was soon ordered by Emperor Wen to supervise the military of Xunyang, Taiyuan, Gaotang, Nanxincai, and Beixincai.
The semi-independent separatist Linchuan Neishi Zhoudi made a rebellion because he did not want to enter the court, and sent his brother to lead an ambush to hide in the ship, pretending to be a merchant to enter the city, intending to sneak attack Hua Jiao and seize the city, but was discovered by Hua Jiao, and the ambush soldiers and ships were captured by Hua Jiao.
When the Chen Dynasty crusaded against Zhou Di, Hua Jiao followed the governor Wu Mingche to actively participate, and after the extermination of Zhou Di, Hua Jiao awarded the scattered cavalry permanent servant, Pingnan general, Linchuan Taishou with military merits, and entered the Jue as the founding marquis of Huairen County, increased to 500 households, and then awarded the envoy Jie, Xiangba and other four state governors, Xiangzhou Assassin History.
Hua Jiao is good at operating industries, Xiangzhou produces a lot of grain, bamboo and wood, all of which are handed over to the imperial court, and also operates preserved vegetables, oil and honey, and also operates mining, and the copper drums and raw mouths manufactured are sent to Beijing Jiankang. Because of the production of cedar boats in Xiangzhou, Emperor Wen ordered Huajiao to build more than 200 warships and water warfare tools such as the big ship Golden Wing to attack the Hanshui Gorge.
After the death of Emperor Wen, Emperor Chen Bozong ascended the throne, Hua Jiaojin was called General Annan, renamed Chong'an County Marquis, and had 1,500 households.
However, the situation in the DPRK and China has changed abruptly, and I am afraid that Hua Jiao himself could not imagine that he would betray the Chen Dynasty one day.
The incident originated when Emperor Wen's younger brother Situ Ancheng Wang Chen Xuan seized power and framed and executed Emperor Wen's close retainer Han Zigao.
Chen Shu Shi Chen said: Although Han Zigao and Hua Jiao re-bottle the small vessels, the last product of Yutai, Emperor Wen learned from the past to win people, save the current urgency, and achieve the skill of wisdom. Kyauk's early visit to the nickname, taste the hardships, know that there is no hidden, reward with strength, see the sincerity of the letter, not a suspicious place. Kyauk's possession has an upstream, loyal to Emperor Wen.
Han Zigao is Emperor Wen's person, but I'm not Hua Jiao?
Hua Jiao felt uneasy, reorganized the armament masses in order to protect himself, and treated and bribed the governors under his rule; Chen Ji asked him to hand over the big ship Golden Wing on time, and he also found a reason to delay.
In the first year of Guangda (567), Hua Jiao secretly asked for a change to the position of Assassin of Guangzhou. Chen Jiao pretended to give permission, but before the official edict was issued, Hua Jiao had already brought in his teammates.
In the previous Hou Jing Rebellion, the Western Wei Dynasty was not idle, killed Emperor Liang Yuan, and supported Emperor Liang Xuan in Jiangling, which was for the Western Liang and a vassal state of the Western Wei Dynasty. At this time, the Western Wei Dynasty had been replaced by the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
When the Zhou army came, Hua Jiao stopped acting, and Dai Seng Shuo, the assassin of Bazhou, announced that he had defected to Western Liang, and sent his son Hua Xuanxiang into Liang, asking Emperor Xiao Yue of Liang Ming to attack Chen.
Emperor Chen appointed Wu Mingche as the assassin of Xiangzhou, led 30,000 soldiers to Yingzhou to prepare for a sneak attack on the Liang army, the general Chun Yuliang of the Fu army, the general Yang Wentong of Guanwu from Ancheng to Chaling, and Bashan Taishou Huang Fahui from Yiyang to Liling respectively to cover the attack, and later sent Sikong Xu Du and Yang Wentong from Ancheng to Xiangdong to sneak attack.
And Emperor Wu of Zhou, Yu Wenyong, also ordered his younger brother Xiangzhou Governor Wei Guo Gongyu Wenzhi to supervise Zhu Guo Lu Tong, the general Tian Hong, the Jingzhou governor who led the naval army, Quan Jingxuan, and the general Yuan Ding, who led the army, to enter the bureau; Emperor Ming of Liang also sent Zhu Wang Cao to lead 20,000 naval troops to meet Hua Jiao in Baling, with Hua Jiao as the Sikong, Dai Seng Shuo, Hengyang Neishi Ren Barbarian Slave, Baling Nei Shi Pan Zhiqian, Yueyang Taishou Zhang Zhaoyu, Guiyang Taishou Cao Xuan, and Xiangdong Taishou Qian Ming as Hua Jiao's subordinates.
The edicts of Emperor Chen and Emperor Wu of Zhou here are probably actually the meaning of the powerful minister Chen Ji behind the scenes, and the cousin of Emperor Wu, Gongyu Wenhu of the Jin Kingdom.
Chun Yu Liang garrison Xiakou; Yuwenzhi garrisoned Lushan and sent Yuan Ding to lead thousands of cavalry to besiege Yingzhou; And Hua Jiao was at a standout with the Nanchen Navy in Bazhou Bailuo. Xu Du and Yang Wentong attacked Xiangzhou from the west of the mountain road and captured all the families of the sergeants left by Hua Jiao. Hua Jiao fought from Bazhou and Yingzhou downwind, which was the battle of Zhuankou.
Chun Yuliang and Wu Mingche recruited small ships in the army, rewarded them with gold and silver, and told them to resist the Liang ships first and withstand the slapping of the Liang army. Soon, the Liang army ran out of ammunition, and immediately used its own cannons**, and all the Liang ships sank; The Liang army filled the big ship with firewood and set fire to the wind, but the wind turned and burned itself instead, and was defeated.
Hua Jiao and Dai Seng Shuo did not dare to flee back to Baling, and went straight to Jiangling, the capital of Liang, by boat.
In fact, Baling has indeed been occupied. ** More than 40 people including Cao Qing, Qian Ming, Pan Zhiqian, Lu Xian, and Xi Huiluo were captured, and they were all killed; Ren Mannu, Zhang Zhaoyu, and Cao Xuan were also captured, but they were all pardoned for some reason, which is not stated in this article.
Hua Jiao led more than 100 people to Jiangling, and was re-awarded the title of Sikong by Emperor Liang Ming, and was named the Duke of Jiangxia County.
In this battle, Western Liang not only failed to obtain the territory of the Chen Dynasty, but even his own Hedong County (near present-day Songzi County, Hubei Province) was occupied by Chen; Wu Mingche even further dug a levee to divert water to irrigate Jiangling, and Emperor Liang Ming withdrew to Jinan City, if it were not for Liang generals Ma Wu and Ji Che to retreat from the enemy, the consequences would be unimaginable; Dai Seng Shuo, who was "strong, brave and good at fighting", was also killed in Gangneung.
With Hua Jiao being suppressed, it is a matter of time when Emperor Chen will be deposed and when Chen Ji will ascend to the throne.
The young man Yu Wenzhi was the commander, but he was dismissed because of the defeat in this battle. He has suffered such a loss, but he is unwilling to take responsibility, I don't know what excuse he found to pressure Emperor Liang Ming, blaming Zhu Guo Yin Liang. Although Emperor Liang Ming knew that Yin Liang was innocent, how could he have the capital to reason with the big boss, so he could only kill Yin Liang.
Also unlucky was Yuan Ding, who served for Yuwentai, the founder of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, very early: the main force was defeated, and his attacking army became a lone army, and he could only surrender, and he himself quickly died of anger.
In the tenth year of Tianbao (571), Hua Jiao went to Chang'an to make a pilgrimage to Emperor Wu of Zhou, and when he arrived in Xiangyang, he said to Yuwenzhi: "The Lord of Liang has lost Jiangnan, and the people are few and the country is poor. Since the imperial court divided the descendants of the Liang Dynasty, it should support the Liang State, just like the Duke of Qi Huan saved the country and the King of Chuzhuang restored the Chen State. It is hoped that the Zhou Dynasty can borrow several states to subsidize the Liang State. Yu Wenzhi agreed very much, so he sent an envoy to present it to Emperor Wu of Zhou; Emperor Wu of Zhou ceded Jizhou, Pingzhou, and Yanzhou to Western Liang.
However, Xiliang is only a puppet regime and has no history of his own dynasties, so there is no record of what Hua Jiao did later and when he died.
