On"Rebellion of Peng Chong,the Prefect of Yuyang"from the Perspective of Strategic Geography
The foundation of"Emperor Guangwu's resurgence"was laid in Yuyang County,Hebei Province,and the strategic geographic advantage of Yuyang became the key to Liu Xiu's management in this area.During the Han Dynasty,Peng Chong was appointed as the governor of Yuyang and formed an alliance with Liu Xiu,thanks to his status as a representative of his countrymen with Gengshi regime.However,Liu Xiu did not confide in Peng Chong,aiming to suppress the local power faction.Yuyang County connects nomadic,agricultural,and marine cultural areas,with obvious strategic transportation advantages.The accumulation of salt and iron can be transformed into a trade valley,with prominent stra-tegic resource advantages.Against the background of"northern states in ruins","Yuyang itself is intact"can be regarded as"strong land",which is an obstacle for Liu Xiu's management of Hebei,and also the root cause of his forcing against Peng Chong.
