Murong Hong? He was born in Jicheng, Changli (now Yixian County, Liaoning Province), Xianbei nationality, the founder of Xiyan regime, the son of Murong Wei, the former Yanyou emperor, and the younger brother of Murong Wei, the former Yanjing emperor.

In the third year of Shengping (359), he was granted the title of Ji Bei Wang. After the death of the former Yan, he surrendered to the former Qin Dynasty and moved to live in Guanzhong. In the 19th year of Jianyuan (383), the Feishui war greatly reduced the power of the former Qin Dynasty and weakened its control over all ethnic groups in the territory. I learned that my uncle murongchui had set up his army in Hebei, and he led the general, the governor of Shaanxi military, Yongzhou animal husbandry, and the king of Jibei. After defeating the former Qin generals Qiang Yong, Fu Rui, Yao Chang, Dou Chong and so on, Xi Yan regime was established. Yan Xing was named, Murong Chong was taken in, and Chang'an was advanced.

In June of the first year of Yanxing (384), Gao Gai, a counsellor, killed him. His posthumous title was Liewen and his temple title was suzong.

Life of the characters

Rebel against the former Qin Dynasty

In the third year of Shengping (359), Emperor Jingzhao Murong established a school to teach aristocratic children, and granted his son Murong Hong the title of king of Jinan.

In the fifth year of Taihe (370), Qianyan was destroyed by the former Qin Dynasty, and many Murong people in Xianbei, including Murong Hong, were moved to Guanzhong by the former Qin Dynasty.

In the first month of the ninth year of the Taiyuan Dynasty (384), muronghong's uncle murongchui rebelled against the Qin Dynasty and founded Houyan, and attacked Yecheng in the former Qin Dynasty.

In March of 384, Murong Hong, who was then the Sheriff of Beidi, heard that Murong Chui had attacked Yecheng, fled to Kanto and gathered up Xianbei people. There were thousands of people who returned to Huayin (now Huayin City, Shaanxi Province). Murongwei secretly asked his brothers and his family members to fight outside. Fu Jian, the former leader of the state of Qin, sent General Qiang Yong to attack with cavalry and was defeated by Murong Hong. Murong Hong's army was even more powerful. He claimed to be the governor of Shaanxi military, general, Yongzhou Mu and king of Jibei, and elected his uncle Murong Chui as prime minister, governor of Eastern Shaanxi military, leader of Da Sima, Jizhou Mu and king of Wu.

Fu Jian appointed Fu Xi, the Duke of Guangping, as envoys, generals of Yongzhou, generals of Zhendong, and assassins of Yongzhou, to guard Puban, and recruited Fu Rui, the Duke of Yongzhou and Julu, as Dukes of Chinese and foreign military affairs, general of Weida, commander of Sili, and Lushang. He assigned 50000 troops, appointed Dou Chong, the left general, as the commander, Yao Chang, the general of Longyu, as the Sima, and went to Huaze to fight against Murong Hong.

Fu Rui was brave and resolute, belittled the enemy and did not care for the soldiers. Murong Hong heard that his army was about to arrive. He was afraid and led the soldiers to flee to Kanto. Fu Rui was reckless and belittled the enemy. He didn't listen to Yao Chang's advice. He led his troops to intercept Murong Hong's army and fight with Murong Hong's army in Huaze. Murong Hong defeated Fu Rui and killed him.

Establish Xiyan

At that time, Murong Hong's younger brother, the Taishou of Pingyang, set up troops in Hedong, with 20000 soldiers, to attack Osaka. Fu Jian sent Dou Chong to fight against Murong Chong.

In April of 384, Dou Chong attacked Murong Chong to the east of the Yellow River and defeated him. Murong Chong led 8000 Xianbei cavalry to Murong Hong. Murong Hong had more than 100000 soldiers. He sent an emissary to tell Fu Jian, "before Qin Dynasty, when there was no way to do anything, we would destroy our country. Now heaven guides him to defeat the Qin army and revive Dayan. Murongchui, king of Wu, has calmed down Guandong. You can get ready as soon as possible to present your brother, the emperor and the family of the meritorious officials of the imperial family. Murong Hong led the Yan people in Guanzhong to defend the emperor and returned to yedU. He separated the world and ruled with the former Qin Dynasty by taking Wulao as the boundary. As a friendly neighbor, Murong Hong was no longer a disaster of the former Qin Dynasty. It's not my Murong Hong's original intention that Fu Rui, the Great Duke of deer, was killed by the disorderly army by making a quick advance without any plan. "

After hearing this, Fu Jian was furious and asked Murong Wei to write a letter to persuade Murong Chui, Murong Feng, Murong Hong and Murong Kai to return to Chang'an and forgive them for their rebellion. However, Murong Wei secretly sent messengers to Murong Hong to say, "now that the Qi of the former Qin Dynasty is exhausted, there are many strange phenomena in Chang'an, which will not last long. I'm a caged man, so there's no reason for me to return. Besides, I'm also a sinner of the royal family of the former Yan Dynasty, which is not worth your consideration. You should try your best to build Daye, let king murongchui of Wu be prime minister, and King murongchong of Zhongshan be taizai and chief Sima. You can be a general and chief Sima. You can be appointed a marquis and an official according to my will. When you hear of my death, you can be the Emperor. " Murong Hong then marched to Chang'an, changed his name to Yanxing, and established the Xiyan regime.

have one's wish

In June of the first year of Yanxing (384), Murong Hong's counsellors Gao Gai and Su qinchong thought that Murong Hong's moral prestige was not as good as Murong Chong's, and the enforcement of the law was harsh and severe. So they killed Murong Hong, made Murong Chong the emperor's younger brother, acted according to the emperor's will, and set up their own appointed officials. Later Murong Chong was greedy for pleasure in Chang'an, and was afraid of the prosperity of Murong Chui. He did not want to lead Xianbei people back to Guandong. Xianbei people resented him very much, and soon he was killed by Han Yan, his subordinate. Later Murong Yong supported his son Murong Zhong, who was named Emperor Liewen and suzong.

Historical evaluation

Gao Gai: "Hongde looks backward, and holds the law to be rigorous."

Wang Yong: "murongchui is a boar in Guandong, Hong and Chong follow the fierce in the capital, which makes the clan degenerate. Yao Chang, a thief of Qiang nationality, is a shepherd of our country. He is a fierce and rebellious man. Yong Lei Ye was gracious, and Shi He was the prime minister. He did not wear the emperor's heaven together with the army of Lishan Mountain and the Di of Xingze, and walked on the thick soil together. How can you bear to break the ugly position of the state and kill the rebellious thieves of the king, if you are the Marquis of the great herdsmen, or the Minister of the great emperor Wan Pei, or the old emperor Si Qi Xun?
