Years: 12 - 12
One of the local commanders kidnaps one of Chanyu Zhi's brothers, Xian, the Prince of Zuoliwu, and his sons Deng and Zhu, by trickery in the first stage of Wang Mang’s plan.
Xian and Zhu are made Chanyus—to be two of the fifteen.
An enraged Chanyu Zhi initiates massive attacks against Xin border regions, causing the border regions much distress and loss in economic and human terms.
Eventually, Xian escapes back to Xiongnu, but his sons are kept as hostages.
After Zhu dies, Deng succeeds him.
However, in 12, after hearing reports that Xian's other son Jiao had been a successful Xiongnu strategist in military actions, Wang, in anger, executes Deng and his attendants.
