At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, in the fourth year of Tianfeng (17), there was a famine in Jingzhou. Newcomers Wang Kuang and Wang Feng have great prestige in the village because of their eloquence, and they are recommended as "Qu Shuai" by the hungry people. Later, Ma Wu, Wang Chang and Cheng Dan also led their troops to join. They gathered in Lvlin Mountain (now Dahongshan, Hubei Province), and the number reached more than 8,000. Later, he called the hero who killed the rich and helped the poor an outlaw.
The heroes of Greenwood were on a roll, and based on Greenwood Mountain, they successively captured Jingling (now Tianmen, Hubei), Du Yun (now North of jingshan county), Anlu and other places with a population of 50,000. In 22 AD, due to the epidemic of plague, the outlaw hero decided to divide his troops and attack. Wang Chang and south Jiangling are called "Xiajiangbing"; Wang Kuang, Simomo, Ma Wu, Zhang Jian went north to Wan and were called "new soldiers". Mu Chen and Liao Zhan of Lin Ping (now northeast of Sui County, Hubei Province) also gathered more than a thousand people to join the new army, calling it "Ping Bing Lin".
When Ping was sent to Nanyang, the descendants of Hou Fuling were emperors who started a new stove. Later, he became emperor for more than two years. Because his father Liu was abused by Cai Tingchang after drinking, he killed Tingchang. Ten years later, Tingchang's son took revenge and killed Liu Xuan's younger brother Liu Qian. Liu Xuan retaliated against his guests, but he didn't want them to buy them off. Liu Xuan was desperate, so he defected to Lin Ping's department, an outlaw hero, and Mu Chen named him Anji.
At the same time, Liu Xuan's kin Ada and Liu Xiu also revolted in Nanyang, and formed "Fuling soldiers" to fight peacefully with the new army Xiajiang soldiers. These four schools constitute the main force of Heroes in the Woodland.
