Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

[Zhang Yichao, who had obtained the right to manage the Helong area, also fully used his own methods.

Engaging in production and promoting economy was the main theme of Hexi during this period.

Hexi, which had been devastated by the Tibetan slave owners, was restored in an orderly manner by Zhang Yichao.

For example, follow the example of Wuhou Xing Water Conservancy in building ditches, and assign dedicated management personnel to each ditch.

For example, we encourage farmers, herders, and merchants to each fulfill their responsibilities and demonstrate their strengths.

For example, they vigorously spread the culture of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, it was recorded that training in Chinese style, Xianhui training in good conduct, and customs changed.

The local Tang people were very proud of Zhang Yichao's governance: after a hundred years, Zuo Ren was restored to Guanchang;

In 856 AD, King Tuyuhun from the north of Shazhou came to plunder. Fearing the power of Zhang Yichao, King Tuyuhun wanted to rob the grain and fled.

Zhang Yichao led his army to pursue for more than a thousand miles north, all the way to the border of Tuyuhun.

In this battle, Zhang Yichao's army was surrounded by a small army. Zhang Yichao himself led the elite soldiers and marched straight into the enemy formation. His warrior style in the prosperous Tang Dynasty made the people of Tuyuhun fearful.

Although the surrounded Tuyuhun tribe had a large force, they had no fighting spirit. They just wanted to break out of the encirclement and flee north. In the end, they were defeated by the Tang army with one force equal to ten. People at the time recorded:

The Fan Rong were timid and ran north and south, while the Han generals were as strong as a thousand.

Nearly a hundred years later, the Tuyuhun people here once again shuddered as they recalled the power of the Tang Army.

Zhang Yichao was victorious and had the three prime ministers Tuyuhun beheaded in front of the army, beheading thousands, capturing hundreds, and seizing thousands of camels, horses, cattle and sheep.

The returning Guiyi troops happily sang Grand Formation Music on the road.

This military song that has been circulating since the Han Dynasty has not been handed down, and only a few words can be found in the records of Song Dynasty literati.

One of the lines, The song of conquering people from thousands of miles away has become the best explanation of Zhang Yichao's achievements.

In the same year, the remnants of the Uighurs and Tibetans in Shazhou rebelled, and Zhang Yichao also surrounded and killed them.

The Tibetan people fled in fear and were chased and killed one after another. The corpses were scattered for fifty miles. The rebel army captured 10,000 livestock and returned in triumph.

In addition, any unruly parties, Uighurs, and Momo in Hexi will be met with Zhang Yichao's iron fist, which not only protects the people's production, but also promotes the power of the rebel army.

In the end, Zhang Yichao settled down in Shazhou:

Ministers from foreign countries thousands of miles away, and barbarians from all directions came here to seek peace and favor.

The barbarians from all directions danced at the foot of the stairs, and the remnants of the old enemy offered gold and jade for repairs.

Fifty years after the fall of the White-haired Army, the Tang Dynasty finally regained its power in the Western Regions. 】

He is really like a military advisor. Zhang Fei said in a low voice.

The more Zhang Fei got to know such a great person through the ages, the more Zhang Fei felt his own insignificance.

He had never fought against the barbarians, and he had achieved very little in his life fighting for his elder brother. He died in a ridiculous way, which will make him laugh forever.

As for this kind of governance, it is even more embarrassing, let alone such a land of hundreds of people.

This person can not only show his power but also show his virtue, making all the people around him join him and all the barbarians to submit. For Zhang Fei, he is already in the category of myth, on the same level as a military advisor.

Being kind and powerful, everything is well organized. Pang Tong marveled, how could this man be so powerful?

And... Pang Tong looked at Kong Ming with a smile in his eyes:

Although he compared himself to Wolong when he was young, he is especially better than Wolong.

At least Kong Ming, you won't lead the cavalry formation.

Kong Ming shook his head. Of course he couldn't do this. He could lead the troops, but there was no need to charge.

He is still a capable general. But this is the end of his military exploits...

Guan Yu suddenly said:

In the past, Chen Zigong once said that five Hu soldiers should be equal to one Han soldier.

However, Sun Bin also said that the troops are divided into guest and host, and the guest is half as much as the host.

It is rare for the Guiyi army to attack a large number with a small number and proactively surround its city and defeat it... It is so brave and brave.

Maybe it's because of the prestige of the prosperous Tang Dynasty? Wei Yan guessed.

However, Wei Yan is still quite envious of this discussion's military exploits:

Sitting in the city, being surrendered by the barbarians and performing dances to seek peace, he became so famous that he pursued Wei Huo.

It still needs to be discussed directly to pursue Wei Huo. Huang Zhong shook his head:

However, he is brave enough to be called a famous general.

…

Li Shimin of Ganlu Hall only had one simple word:

good!

Then he stood up excitedly:

Okay, okay!

My head no longer hurts at all and my whole body feels full of energy.

If all the generals in the prosperous Tang Dynasty were like this discussion, why can't it last for another hundred years?

Of course Li Shimin also knew that this was just talk.

The only regret is...

Why the Great Formation Music?

Of course, Li Shimin also knew about the formation music. Even when he first raised his troops, he would sing it together with the soldiers after winning the battle.

But as a warrior in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, why not sing the military music of the Tang Dynasty?

Is it possible that my Broken Formation Music has not been passed down?

What's so hard about this?

Changsun Wuji follows him like a shadow:

I guess the musicians would be happy to write music and lyrics for everyone's formation-breaking music.

In this way, the soldiers can sing the song of breaking the formation whether they are out of the formation, breaking the formation, returning in triumph, or feeling homesick!

Very good! Li Shimin was satisfied: It should be done by conquering people from thousands of miles away.

No! Li Shimin had another idea: Thousands of barbarians from thousands of miles away will sing Tang songs.

Li Shimin laughed loudly, and Fang Du looked at each other, already accustomed to it.

[Despite the successive victories and the surrender of all parties, Zhang Yichao certainly understood what the problem was with the Guiyi Army.

The Liangzhou occupied by the Tubo cut off the arteries of the Guiyi Army. Only by re-opening this area can the population resources be transported from the Central Plains to Hexi.

Only by allowing the people of the Tang Dynasty in Hexi to prosper again can the Tang Dynasty truly take control of this place, and the Guiyi Army can have continuous replenishment of vitality.

But how easy is it to reopen Liangzhou City? This was the last fortress of the Tubo Empire in Hexi. All the defeated Tubo armies, remnants, and slaves in Hexi finally fled here.

But Zhang Yichao couldn't wait any longer. After ten years of savings, he was determined to fight to the death and let Hexi truly return to the embrace of the Tang Dynasty!

Beginning in 858, without the support of Chang'an, Zhang Yichao officially started the war against Liangzhou.

Every county outside Liangzhou City required the Guiyi Army to fight with the Tubo people. The battle lasted for three years. Countless Guiyi Army soldiers risked their lives to fight for it, and finally a road to Liangzhou City was opened.

In August 861, Zhang Yichao, who had only 7,000 men under his command, ordered:

They will open a road to attack Liangzhou, and Tang'er will return to his country today!

With the weak attacking the strong, Zhang Yichao chose to conceal his whereabouts and raid Liangzhou. The Tibetan front was in chaos, but they quickly organized a counterattack because they found that the intruders only had a thousand people.

The Guiyi Army broke out with astonishing combat effectiveness with Zhang Yichao taking the lead.

If the head is injured, wipe some dirt on it and continue to kill the enemy. If the horse dies, then charge towards the fan cavalry with a white blade in hand.

The coats and coats worn by the soldiers became heavier and heavier after being soaked with the blood of the Tibetans. Some soldiers simply took them off and fought naked with the Tibetans.

In the end, the Guiyi army, with swords like frost and snow from the Han family, was even better, completely crushing the fighting spirit of the Tubo people, and they began to flee in all directions.

Zhang Yichao seemed to have expected it, and ordered the reserve team to encircle them. The Tubo people fell into the methodical strangulation of the Tang army.

In the end, Tibetan corpses were scattered throughout dozens of miles. Some corpses did not have time to restrain themselves until the weather turned freezing, and most of them even became food for tigers, wolves, and wild beasts.

It is worth mentioning that Gao Jinda, who was the first to deliver a message to Chang'an, also participated in the Battle of Liangzhou, but there is no record afterwards. He may have died here in the battle.

Thanks to this beautiful battle of annihilation, the Hexi Corridor was finally connected, and this land bore the name of Zhang Yichao and the Guiyi Army.

Longxi was once again connected to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the people stranded here were finally able to return to their homeland. People at that time wrote a poem praising:

Hexi has been in decline for more than a hundred years, and the roads are blocked by Xiao Guanyan.

General Lai De opened an old path and became famous all over the world. 】

General Tang, this is how it should be!

Although he cherished Zhang Yichao's solitary loyalty, Li Shimin became increasingly satisfied.

It is still the early Tang Dynasty, the humiliation of the Wei River has not been over, and the Turks have not yet been extinguished.

This discussion gave Li Shimin a good understanding of what a military general in the prosperous Tang Dynasty should look like.

I have to say that the only drawback is...

Can this indifferent Xuanzong be called Little Taizong?

Li Shimin was very disdainful:

It's simply slandering my reputation!

It's better to call him Xiao Xuanzong!

He still remembers the descendant who fled to Shu and was posthumously named Xuanzong.

Moreover, if there is a good general like Zhang Yichao, Li Shimin will support him even if he conquers him personally.

Not to mention such a big thing as opening up Hexi.

Is this good descendant of mine completely incapable of military knowledge?

Du Ruhui guessed:

Perhaps it was because there were wars in other places at the time and it was difficult to take care of both.

After all, we are just waiting for the sightseeing curtain to take a peek.

This was already an attempt to make amends, after all, the general who had been ridiculed by the light screen for watching the Xiliang performers drink and have fun had not been there for long.

Li Shimin snorted and said with some regret:

It's a pity that Gao Jinda is here.

Then he became tired of Xuanzong:

Even if he can help 1,200 people, Gao Jinda may not die!

Fang Xuanling comforted:

The lack of records does not necessarily mean that he is dead. Maybe he is just not in battle?

Li Shimin was reluctantly convinced and finally said:

This discussion is worthy of Guangmu's evaluation and can rival Zhuge Wuhou.

His actions alone are enough to earn him the name of Zhongwu!

It's a pity that it can't be used! What a pity!

Li Shimin really felt that it was a pity. Now that the early Tang Dynasty was just beginning, it was precisely this kind of talents who could advance and retreat and govern.

Remember his deeds and create a separate biography. I will read it from time to time.

Li Shimin finally gave the order.

…

It will make the world famous!

The meaning is simple and easy to understand. Zhang Fei expressed his love and admiration:

This Tang Dynasty scholar is so good at praising others!

Indeed. Huang Zhong nodded and said seriously:

It's just like General Zhang boasts about winning a battle and no one can boast about it.

The general of the Han Dynasty flew and defeated Zhang He. He immediately made a mark.

Zhang Fei's face turned visibly red and he remained silent.

The hall laughed.

Pang Tong stared at the light curtain and said slowly:

The more brave the rebel army became, the more the commander-in-chief felt that there was no cure for the disease in the late Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Yichao did not inherit the Tang Dynasty. He only wanted to pursue the prosperous Tang Dynasty, so he was angry and raised an army to recover the eleven states that had been occupied for hundreds of years.

The people's hearts have surrendered, and the barbarians from all directions have surrendered. In the end, the people's will is to open the old road to return home. In this way, the Tang court of the rebel army will not provide food, grass, or troops.

It took three years to re-open the Hexi River due to the loyalty and bravery of this group of survivors who had fallen to the enemy for a hundred years.

Jian Yong interfaced:

This discussion focuses on the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but what you see when you penetrate Liangzhou is the late Tang Dynasty.

Just like Kong Ming, he aspires to be a strong man, but he has to mend his ways in this troubled world.

Kong Ming was startled, then laughed.

Gui Yijun is still worth talking about.

Also, do you have any good ideas for giving gifts? Grandpas, please speak freely.
