"Xue Rengui can be said to be an unparalleled general in the history of the Tang Dynasty. He was a famous patriotic general and a famous national hero during the Tang Dynasty. He was also the General Zuo Weiwei at that time. Because Xue Rengui loved white robes throughout his life, he was known as the white robe. "

"For the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, to stabilize its foundation, and for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, he fought bloody battles for more than 40 years and made countless achievements."

"Among the generals in the Martial Temple, if it weren't for a battle, how could there be no place for him."

"He has many great achievements such as holding the Tianshan Mountain with his bright stick and three swords, standing upright for the country and loving the people, taking off his hat to the city to repel all enemies, and Shen Yong conquering Liaodong."

"All 47 descendants of Xue Rengui and the Xue family defended the country for 280 years for the Tang Dynasty, and also died through fire and water for the 21 emperors of the Tang Dynasty. They are the pride of the nation and the heroes of the dynasty."

"Xue Rengui, although he was born into a family of officials, his father died early, which made his family very poor, and they generally relied on farming."

"When Xue Rengui became an adult, he yearned for military life very much, so with the encouragement of his wife, he joined the army of the Tang Dynasty."

"Xue Rengui started out as a soldier, but he has been influenced by his father since he was a child and is very familiar with most affairs in the army."

"That's why Xue Rengui was appreciated by his superiors in the army. Especially on the battlefield, Xue Rengui's performance was even more outstanding."

"Speaking of this superior, I want to complain. In my world, you ancients have also distorted many things. In the videos I showed you, I don't know how many of them distorted the facts."

"This is Xue Rengui's superior, a good founding general, and can even be said to be Xue Rengui's boss. He has given Xue Rengui a lot of conveniences. When it comes to watching TV, he is directly written as a traitor."

Yang Jian: No matter how long it takes, there will still be people who distort the facts.

Fusu: Doesn’t your country care?

"I don't know about this. I'm just an ordinary person, a common man."

"Anyway, I just want to clarify something for General Zhang. How can a hero be described as a traitor?"

"In the 19th year of Zhenguan, when Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty personally conquered Goguryeo, Xue Rengui single-handedly killed the enemy generals. His performance on the battlefield was even more impressive to the emperor. After this battle, his reputation in the army greatly increased."

"This battle is the beginning of Xue Rengui's legendary achievements in his life."

"After this battle, Xue Rengui became more important in the Mingyang Army."

"As the war continued to advance, the forwards of the Tang army reached the territory of Goguryeo and fought all the way to Anshi City."

"Ansi City was the most important city in Goguryeo at that time, and its strategic significance was very important."

"Facing the arrival of the Tang army, Goguryeo generals Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen led 25 horses to stop the Tang army. The famous Battle of Anshi City in history began."

"During this battle, Xue Rengui was wearing a white robe, charging forward, and was invincible."

"It was precisely because of his outstanding performance that the Tang army became more heroic and finally defeated the Goguryeo defenders."

"After this battle, Li Shimin specially summoned Xue Rengui, who was just an ordinary soldier at the time."

"In addition to giving Xue Rengui a large amount of property, he was also promoted to a guerrilla general."

"Although the Tang Dynasty conquered Goguryeo and returned with a great victory, due to climate reasons, the Tang army had to temporarily retreat into the territory after winter." "After returning to Chang'an, Li Shimin thought of Xue Rengui's heroic performance on the battlefield and directly promoted him to Xue Rengui became the right-leading Zhonglang General and was responsible for guarding the imperial city."

"After the conquest of Goguryeo, Li Shimin was getting older and his health was getting worse, and he could no longer lead his own troops to fight."

"So in the next few years, until Li Shimin's death, the Tang Dynasty did not launch any major wars. A few years later, Li Shimin passed away and Prince Li Zhi ascended the throne."

"After the Li Zhi era, Xue Rengui was still reused."

"Moreover, as many of the founding military generals are getting older, Xue Rengui's status in the military is getting higher and higher."

"Li Zhi has great trust in him. Every time he travels, Xue Rengui must lead the troops to escort him."

"In this way, after two generations of Li Shimin and Li Zhi guarded the gate for several years, in 658 AD, Xue Rengui finally led troops again to participate in foreign wars."

"This time, the enemy of the Tang Dynasty was still Goguryeo."

"It's just that this war has been ten years since Li Shimin conquered Goguryeo."

"Moreover, in the last war, Xue Rengui was just a small soldier. He was not promoted to a guerrilla general until the later stages of the war. But this time, Xue Rengui was promoted to the deputy general of the Tang Army and directly participated in the command of the war."

"Xue Rengui still performed very well in this war against Goguryeo."

"In the battle of Guiduan City, he defeated the enemy army and beheaded more than [-] people. In the battle of Hengshan, he captured Goryeo general Wen Shamen alive. In the battle of Heishan, he defeated the Khitan army and captured the Khitan king Abgu alive."

"Although this expedition to Goguryeo still failed to directly destroy Goguryeo, it caused Goguryeo to lose a lot of territory. Since then, it has completely failed to recover. Xue Rengui was also named General Zuowuwei for his merits."

"The official position of General Zuo Wuwei was quite important in the early Tang Dynasty."

"The army of the Tang Dynasty was divided into twelve guards, each with a general."

"Compared with other guards, Zuowuwei is a little special, because Zuowuwei is responsible for protecting the capital. Generally, only the clan or the emperor's most trusted generals can serve."

"When Li Shimin was in power, the position of General Zuo Wuwei was always held by Qin Qiong."

"Being able to become General Zuo Wuwei is enough to show how much Li Zhi trusted Xue Rengui. Since then, Xue Rengui has completely become one of the top generals of the Tang Army."

"Two years after the end of the Liaodong War, Xue Rengui was ordered to march west again."

"In 661 AD, the Uighur leader who had always been on good terms with the Tang Dynasty passed away, and the Uighur leader who succeeded him had a hostile attitude towards the Tang Dynasty, so soon the Tang Dynasty and the Uighur Dynasty entered a state of war."

"After Xue Rengui led his troops into the Tianshan area, the enemy had more than [-] troops to contend with him, and sent dozens of masters to challenge the Tang army face to face."

"As a result, when these dozens of masters arrived, Xue Rengui went directly to the scene and killed three people with three arrows. He completely shocked these masters and the morale of the Tang army also greatly increased."

"Xue Rengui took advantage of the situation and led his troops to attack and defeated the enemy. After this battle, there was no war in the entire Tianshan area for decades."
