About This Novel
The Green Forest Red Eyebrow Uprising was a peasant uprising that occurred when Wang Mang usurped power at the end of the Western Han Dynasty. It later joined forces with Liu Yan and Liu Xiu's uprising army and became the source of the Guangwu Zhongxing. In the second year of the Emperor's reign (AD 21), Xinmang Jingzhou Mu sent 20,000 troops to attack the Green Forest Army. The Green Forest Army defeated the Mang Army and the number of troops increased to tens of thousands. The next year, an epidemic broke out in the Green Forest Mountain area, and the rebel army was divided and moved. They were led by Wang Chang and Cheng Dan and went west to Nanjun, and were called Xiajiang soldiers. They were led by Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, and Ma Wu and went north to Nanyang, and were called Xinshi soldiers.
