From December of the first year of Sui Yining to November of the first year of Tang Wude, in the unified war in the early Tang Dynasty, Qin Gong and the separatist forces Xue Ju and Xue fought.
In April of the first year of Yining, Xue Ju, the satrap of Jincheng Prefecture in Sui Dynasty, and his son Gao Ren rose up against Sui. Soon captured Longxi, Xiping, Tianshui and other counties, Longxi has no place to stand. In July, Xue Ju claimed to be the overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty and changed to Qin Xing, with a total population of 1.3 million, all in _.
And capturing Chang 'an, Xue Ju sent Xue Dongjin to discuss Guanzhong. In December, Xue attacked the Tang Bi department of the peasant uprising army in _ _, and when he learned the whole situation, his troops increased greatly, claiming to be 300 thousand, and then he entered the encirclement. So he led his troops to meet the enemy, defeated Xue Jun and chased him back to Gansu. Subsequently, Li Yuan bribed the Turks, making Xue Ju and his joint plan bankrupt.
In June of the first year of Wushu, Xue Ju led an army to attack Jingzhou, and Tang Gaozu ordered the king of Qin to lead eight generals to resist. In July, when Li Shimin entered the highest city, he decided to take the master plan of sticking to the city wall and waiting for the enemy to run out. Later, due to Li Shimin's illness, he handed over the command to Liu Wenjing and Sima Yin, the constant attendants. Liu Heyin didn't listen to his warning. They invaded the shallow plain without authorization and were raided by Xue Jujun. Tang Jun was defeated and retreated to Chang 'an, and Xue Ju occupied Gaocheng. In August, Xue Ju sent Xue to attack Ningzhou, ready to attack Chang 'an, and was repelled by the recklessness of Downing State and Hu Yan's troops. On the ninth day, Xue Ju died of illness, so Xue An Lushan collapsed.
After Tang Jun's defeat in shallow water plain in the early stage, in order to consolidate the newly established Tang Dynasty and completely eliminate the hidden dangers in the northwest, Li Yuan secretly sent someone to contact Li Gui, a separatist force in Liangzhou, to make him King Liang and attack Xue Jun from east to west. Hearing that Xue Ju was dead, Tang Gaozu ordered Li Shimin to attack Xue Gaoren again on 17th. 1 1 month, Li Shimin army entered Gaopo. Xue sent General Zongluo to meet the enemy with 65,438 men. After several challenges, General Tang Jun also invited him to fight. However, Li Shimin thought that Tang Jun had just been defeated and his morale was low. He wanted to fight high and save his strength. When Xue Jun became arrogant by victory, he went out of the city to defeat the enemy. So he ordered the army: Anyone who dared to speak and fight would be beheaded! At the same time, in order to disperse the forces, General Dou Gui and Changping Wang Li were sent to reinforce Jingzhou, which is located behind enemy lines, leaving Xue as a thorn in his back. Although Xue besieged Jingzhou many times, defeated the generals in ancient times in the Tang Dynasty, and seized the Longzhou secretariat in the Tang Dynasty by false surrender, he still failed to seize Jingzhou. Tang Jun and Zong Luojun were deadlocked in Gao Tai for more than 60 days.
By November, Xue ran out of food and grass, and all the soldiers abandoned him. Folk history led Zhai Sunchang and General Liang Hulang to lead troops to the Tang Dynasty. When he saw that the time had come for a decisive battle, he ordered the chief officer to lead his men to camp in the shallow plain and seduce Xue Jun. Zongluo _ exultation, leading his elite to attack, Liang can't keep it. A few days later, Li Shimin ordered the right Wuhou Pang Yu to be deployed in the south of shallow water, and Zongluo concentrated his forces to attack Pang Yu. The two sides fought hard, and Li Shimin led the main force to surprise Zongluo _ land from the northern shallow plain. Zongluo _ was attacked before and after, defeated and fled, with thousands of troops and horses, and countless people died in the valley. Leading more than 2,000 Qingqi pursuers to a 56-point victory, Xiao chickened out and went to the Tang Dynasty. Seeing that he was afraid to fight, Xue had to lead his troops back to the city and refused to defend it. In the evening, Tang Jun's main force arrived and surrounded the city. That night, our soldiers surrendered from the city, and Xue was forced to lead more than 10 thousand soldiers out of the city the next day.
Comments: In this campaign, Tang Jun completely eliminated the separatist forces of Xue Ju and his son, relieved worries, consolidated Guanzhong, and created favorable conditions for the unified war.
Li Shimin is the second son of Tang Gaozu Tang Gaozu. When he was four years old, the fortuneteller looked at him and said to Li Yuan: The posture of dragon and phoenix, the posture of the sun, the moon and the sky, will certainly help the people at the age of twenty.
Tang Gaozu adopted the meaning of saving the world and helping people to name Li Shimin. Li Shimin is young, intelligent, profound, decisive and informal, which people can't measure.
In the 11th year of the Great Cause, Yang Di toured the north, and was surrounded by 100,000 Turks riding around Yanmen to enlist the military forces in the world. When Li Shimin was sixteen years old, he enlisted in the army and went to the rescue with Tunpu General Genting Star. He put forward a plan for a big Zhang Junrong, with dozens of flags in succession, and churned out the corresponding suspected soldiers at night. At that time, all the military forces in the world left one after another, forcing the Turks to complete Khan's clearance. At this time, Li Shimin appeared.
After the Taiyuan Uprising, he and his younger brother Li led the army to capture the Xihe River. Worship the leader, command the armed forces and seal the Duke of Dunhuang. The army marched westward to Huoyi. When attacking the city, it cooperated with its younger brother Li in the southeast of Huoyi, and attacked the remnants of the Sui Dynasty with the army. Later, he provided a plan for Li Yuan to lead the army to cross the Yellow River to the west and enter the customs directly. Li Shimin led the former army to cross the Yellow River, and first pacified Weibei. Powerful landlords came to join the party one after another, and several peasant insurgents also joined the party. At this time, the strength has reached 654.38+0.3 million. In November of that year, he led an army to conquer Chang 'an. Li Yuan-li appointed Yang as emperor, and changed the great cause of thirteen years to the first year of Yining. Tang Gaozu held the military and political power, taking Li Shimin as Jing Zhaoyin and renamed Qin Guogong. In December of the first year of Yining, he was the right marshal and moved to seal Zhao Guogong. In May of the same year, Tang Gaozu proclaimed himself emperor, changed his martial arts, took Li Shimin as the secretary and right governor, proclaimed himself the king of Qin, and granted Yongzhou Pastoral.
After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, in order to unify the whole country, six wars took place, four of which were commanded by Li Shimin, and all of them won, which made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty.
The dispute between Xue Ju and his son in Tang Dynasty
Xue Ju, a native of Fenyin, Hedong, is handsome, brave and good at fighting, and his martial arts are unparalleled. At first, he was the satrap of Jincheng. At the end of Sui Dynasty, thieves started in Longxi, and hungry people were everywhere. Jincheng ordered Hao Yuan to recruit thousands of hungry people and sent Xue Ju to beg for thieves. Xue Ju, his son Gao Ren and thirteen associates hijacked Hao Yuan, falsely claimed to have captured the rebels, and put Hao Yuan and other county officials in jail to help the poor. Xue Ju claimed to be the overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty, and Jianyuan was Qin Xing. Xue Ju has been recruiting people with great fanfare, and everywhere he goes, he is captured. Sui Jun stationed in _ han suspection.i ten thousand troops, Xue Ju choose two thousand chosen men sneak attack. They met Huangfuwan's army on the bare shore, but they didn't fight, and a storm suddenly came. At first, Xue Jujun was against the wind, and Huangfuwan didn't attack. Suddenly the wind changed and the two sides changed. HuangFuWan army against the wind, dark, morale. Taking this opportunity, Xue Ju rode forward, followed by a large group of people, and was defeated, so he descended to _ Korea. At that time, Zhong Lishu, the leader of Qiang people, supported 20,000 troops in Minshan, and all surrendered to Xue Ju, which greatly increased his strength. Constantly led the army to seize territory and conquered Shan State and Kuo State. Within a few days, there were as many as 130,000 troops in Longxi.
In autumn and July of the 13th year of Daye, Xue Ju proclaimed himself emperor in Lanzhou. That month, Xue sent troops. Rushed to Jiankou and was defeated by Xiao _, the prefect of Hechi County. Xue fell and Xue Ju moved the capital. _ Tang Yuanbi is fighting in Fufeng, with 100,000 troops. Xue Ju sent envoys to surrender to Tang Bi, who attached himself to Xue Ju. Xue took advantage of Tang Bi's unprepared, seized the opportunity to kill him and swallowed his army. Tang Bi escaped with only a few hundred riders. At this point, Xue Ju's power soared, claiming to be 300,000 troops, ready to seize Chang 'an. It happened that Taiyuan Rebel Army pacified Guanzhong, so it led troops to attack Fufeng. Li Shimin led his troops to break it, beheaded thousands of them, and chased them back to Gansu. Xue Ju was probably frightened by Li Shimin. Afraid that Li Shimin would come after him, he asked his men, "Has the Emperor of Heaven ever come down?" ? Wei He hurried forward and said that the emperor had let slip. In the past, Emperor Gaozu suffered repeated defeats and wars, and the ancestors of Shu were separated many times, and there were victories and defeats in the war. Not in that dynasty? How can we consider the matter of national subjugation if we can't win the war? However, Xue Ju also regretted it and had to say, I'm just saying, testing you.
Later, he negotiated with the Turkic Mohe Duh to seize Chang 'an. Mohe promised to send troops and set a date. It happened that Yu Wenxin, the supervisor of the Tang Dynasty, was sent to Turkey. Yu Wenxin persuaded Mohe not to send troops, but Xue Ju's plan failed to come true.
In July of the first year of Wu, Xue Ju invaded Jingzhou, and Li Shimin led the army to conquer it. Li Shimin estimated that they were short of food and wanted to make a quick decision, so they didn't fight in the deep ditch, which kept the enemy busy. When Li Shimin got malaria, he entrusted the military power to Liu Wenjing and Yin Kaishan, and warned him that Xue Ju was running deep, lacking food and tired soldiers. If he challenges, he should be careful not to respond. I'll break it for you as soon as I get well.
Liu Wenjing didn't listen and went out for profit. The two sides fought fiercely and Tang Jun was defeated. Li Shimin led the army back to Chang 'an. This war was Li Shimin's only failure in his life. Xue Ju took the lottery and sent Xue to surround Ningzhou. Hao Yuan presented a plan to Xue Ju: The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were newly broken, the generals were captured, and the capital was in turmoil, so Chang 'an could be taken directly.
Xue Ju agreed. Before leaving, Xue Ju fell ill and died soon. His son Xue inherited him.
In September of the same year, he led an army to conquer Xue, and Xue sent Zong Luo to lead the troops to resist. Zongluo _ several challenges, Li Shimin failed to persist, and the two sides were deadlocked in zhecheng county. Li Shimin's generals demanded a battle, but Li Shimin refused, saying: Our army has just been defeated and its morale is low. The thief is arrogant and despises me. It is advisable to close the base and wait and see. He is arrogant and I am excited, but I can overcome the first world war.
And ordered the army: those who dare to speak and fight will be beheaded! The two sides have been deadlocked for more than 60 days, and Xue Yong is brave and foolhardy. Coupled with the exhaustion of food and the desertion of soldiers, literature and history led Zhai to surrender with many people, and Xue's brother-in-law Zhong surrendered to the Tang Dynasty with Hezhou. I understood Xue's estrangement from the officers and men of the army and told the generals that I should remove this matter from him.
So he ordered the generals to camp in shallow water to lure Xue Jun. Zongluo was overjoyed and sent soldiers to attack Liang Shi, but Liang Shi could not escape. Li Shimin estimated that the other side was tired and said to the generals, You can fight now! Pang Yu and the Southern Front of Shallow Water fought against Zongluo _, and Zongluo _ jointly attacked Pang Yu. The offensive was so fierce that Pang Yu could hardly resist it. At this point, Li Shimin was advancing his army, unexpectedly fighting from the shallow water in the north, and Zongluo _ led the army to fight. Li Shimin led dozens of cavalry to take the lead in breaking into Zongluo _ array, attacking Tang Jun inside and outside the periphery, crying for land, Zongluo _ suffered a crushing defeat, and Tang Jun beheaded thousands of people, making the dead overwhelmed.
Li Shimin led about two thousand riders to chase Zongluo _ and enter the city. Xue is at the gate of the city and camped across the Jinghe River. At this time, Xue will surrender again, and Xue will be afraid and self-sufficient. It was getting dark, and the troops of the Tang Dynasty arrived one after another and were surrounded. In the middle of the night, people guarding the city shouted to surrender, and Xue could do nothing. At the end of the road, Xue had to surrender. In the Tang Dynasty, there were more than 10,000 elite soldiers and 50,000 soldiers. Xue and other ten people were taken back to Chang 'an and killed together. After the first world war, Datang made Longyou land carefree.
