Tang Dynasty and Turks
Li Yuan Before the start of the war, the rule of the Sui Dynasty had collapsed and existed in name only. When Li Yuan started the war, the territory was very small, only Taiyuan, because Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty The bad situation left behind, in order to prevent Turkic And Liu Wuzhou During the attack, Li Yuancai temporarily tied the knot with the Turks. Later, after Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty, he soon fought with Turks.
On the one hand, the Tang Dynasty defeated many enemies, expanded and carried out a unified war, on the other hand, it resisted the Turks, and also eliminated the separatist forces supported by the Turks, weakened the strength and prestige of the Turkic khans, and also divided the Turks.
History Master Wang Yongxing《 On the Military History in the Early Tang Dynasty 》It was pointed out that at the end of the Sui Dynasty, China was weak, while the Turks were very strong. The Turkic khans wanted to do Tuoba Emperor Daowu Second, to gain the Central Plains, and there are outstanding people in China Li Shimin , not only unify, but also resist the Turks and smash the Turkic khans Emperor Daowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty Second, the attempt to gain the Central Plains was defended Chinese nation Thousands of years of civilization; It also eliminated several separatist forces supported by the Turks, weakened the strength of the Turks and hit the prestige of the Turkic khans. [5-6]
In August of the ninth year of Wude (626) Change of Xuanwu Gate , the political situation is unstable, the East Turks wait for an opportunity to invade and attack the capital Chang'an Jingyang, only 40 miles away (today's Shaanxi Xianyang Jingyang County ), the capital shook.
At this time, Chang'an had only tens of thousands of troops. Tang Taizong, who had just ascended the throne Li Shimin Make a plan to suspect soldiers and lead them Gao Shilian Fang Xuanling Wait for 6 to ride Weishui River Across the river and Jieli Khan Dialogues, angrily criticizing Jieli Sudden profit 2. Khan breaks the agreement. The reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty soon arrived, Jieli Khan was afraid, and the Turkic officials came to pay a visit to Tang Taizong. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had no empty treasuries.
The original record of empty treasuries "dumping treasuries" comes from novels《 Jiahua in Sui and Tang Dynasties 》In the Sui and Tang Jiahua, it is recorded that "Jing invited the government to send money for peace, and the hidden army invited him to return. The emperor followed his words, and Hu's troops withdrew. So he was invited by the danger to abandon the old and weak and flee, and he got tens of thousands of horses, Jade and silk Nothing is left. "
According to the records in Jiahua of Sui and Tang Dynasties, Li Shimin and Li Jing First use property to coax the Turks to retreat, and then send Tang Jun They stopped on the way back to the Turks, and the Turks fled. The Tang army captured tens of thousands of horses and recaptured all the property that had been given to the Turks before. If you believe in the saying of "dumping the treasure house", you should also believe that the Turks fled immediately after the Tang army attacked the Turks on the way home. The Tang army recaptured the property given to the Turks and captured tens of thousands of horses. If you don't believe the latter, then there is no reason to believe the saying of "pouring money into the treasury". Moreover, the record of Jiahua in Sui and Tang Dynasties《 Old Tang Script 》、《 New Tang Dynasty Book 》、《 Comprehensive Mirror for Aid Government 》Such historical records are contradictory, so it is not credible that there are empty treasuries and "empty treasuries".
Weishui League This matter was not a disgrace to quite a few emperors in other dynasties, even a victory. However, because Li Shimin's standards in foreign affairs are too high (Li Shimin believes that the victory is that Li Jing attacked and destroyed Turkic khanates , occupy Monan, Li Ji Thousands of Tang troops defeated many with few Xue Yantuo More than 50000 people were captured. The Tang Dynasty defeated and occupied the Western Regions, and the Tang Dynasty attacked and destroyed Xue Yantuo khanate , occupy North of the Gobi desert These great victories are regarded by Li Shimin as victories, not humiliations. It can be seen that Li Shimin has high standards in foreign affairs.
But in fact, the situation of the Weishui League was that when the Tang Dynasty saw internal strife and the Xuanwu Gate change and internal instability, the Turks took the opportunity to invade, and the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty soon arrived Loss of thinking Do not return, but stand up and walk out gently, Military appearance It is very prosperous and has a fear of looks "(recorded in《 Comprehensive Mirror for Aid Government 》)The Turkic Jieli Khan was already afraid. At this time, the Tang army could defeat the Turkic army, but could not destroy the Turkic khanate. In order to achieve greater victory, Li Shimin chose to talk about peace and paralyze the Turkic Jieli Khan; Once again, the Huns were defeated, or they were afraid to cultivate morality, and they became resentful to me. Today, I'm fighting a war, trapped in jade and silk, and trying to capture arrogance and recklessness. I must start from here, and gradually break down. It's here! If you want to take it, you must stick to it. This is also called ". Then the two sides reached an agreement on the Weishui River, and the Tang Dynasty gave the Turkic khans property ("trapped in jade and silk"), while the Turkic khans gave the Tang Dynasty 3000 horses and 10000 sheep. The Old Book of the Tang Dynasty, Volume 194, First Biography, Part 144: In September, Jieli offered 3000 horses and 10000 sheep. [7-10]
History master Wang Yongxing《 On the Military History in the Early Tang Dynasty 》An Analysis of the Weishui River Alliance: Li Shimin's Behavior and Military deployment It shows strength and fearlessness; Be strong and self strengthening On the one hand, it can inspire the people of Tang Dynasty; On the other hand, it can frighten the Turkic Khan and his soldiers. If there are both, it is like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty Words "If you fight with others, you will overcome them, and if you fight with others, you will strengthen them.". [11]
Battle of Xue Yantuo
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty strove hard to govern, and provoked the relations between the two khans of Jieli and Turki, and between Turkic and Tiele tribes. Since Li Shimin had won many victories over the Turks during the Wude period, the prestige and strength of the Turkic khans were weakened, and the Turks were also divided. In 627, the eastern Turks were divided.
Anti Jieli Khan Xue Yantuo Huihe Bayegu Tongluo The tribes were dissatisfied with their policies of changing national customs and implementing them, so they established Xue Yantuo as a khan by virtue of the canon of the Tang Dynasty.

Historical evaluation

Wang Yongxing, a famous historian, "A Brief Commentary on the Military History of the Early Tang Dynasty": Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty is the most important and knows the military best. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was an outstanding person who never came out of the world. He was a major figure in promoting historical development and changing the situation in Asia. [21]
Zhenguan dignitary 》Praise the governance of Zhenguan: Most officials are pure and honest. They belong to the family of princes and concubines. They are a group of great and cunning people. They don't dare to invade and deceive small people. There were no thieves in the business trip. The prison was always empty. Last year, only 29 people were killed. He also frequently sent Fengren, rice and three coins, horses and cattle, and wild fields. He traveled from Beijing to Lingbiao, and from Shandong to the sea, without paying for food, he gave it to the road. When entering Shandong villages, visitors who pass by must be provided with more money, or there will be gifts and legacies when they send. This is unprecedented in ancient times.
Later Jin Dynasty Official repair Official history Old Tang Script Liu Xu His comments were: "Shi Chen said:" I see that Emperor Wen has made a lot of achievements, and he is smart and powerful. If you choose people, you will not be selfish to the party, and if you are ambitious, you will use up your talents. So Qu Tu and Yuchi are willing to fall in love with their enemies; Ma Zhou and Liu Ji are estranged from each other and die in Junheng. When they finally get to the peaceful stage, you should forgive me. Try to talk about it: the foundation is moist and the clouds are thriving, and insects are chirping and the crickets are jumping. ". Although Yao and Shun were saints, they could not be pacified with Taowu and poverty; Yi and Lv Zhixian cannot prosper for Xia Jie and Yin Xin. When the monarch and his officials met with such difficulties, they even decided to look at their own heart. Worms were flowing and tendons were rising, which made them feel different. With the wisdom of Fang and Wei, they are no more than Qiu and Ke, so they can respect the Lord and protect the people. Or, "What is it to lose love to Kundi and education to scholars with the virtue of Taizong?"? He said: "However, Shun can't be benevolent to the four sins, Yao can't train Danzhu, and Si Qianzhi can't be lenient to the four sins.". In the year when God Yao was in charge of calumny, when he was built to be a man who did not want to do anything, he was afraid of being forced. But who cares about the collapse and the rise of misfortune? He is afraid of the disaster of "destroying the nest", and would rather fear the rumor of "chi bu"? The Holy Father cannot remove the folly he has committed. If the Emperor Wen decided to reserve in the philosophical heirs, he would not aspire to Korea; Employing people is like the beginning of Zhenguan, when he accepted remonstrance and compared with Wei Zheng. Kuang Zhoufa and Zhou Chengzhi are hereditary, and I have left Yan; Compared with the Chinese language and the Han martial arts, he is more ashamed of virtue. He has never been confused by what he has heard. He has been doing good like a stream for thousands of years. He is just one person! Praise said: Chang, Faqi, one door and three saints. Set a high position, and make friends without orders. Guan and Cai both took the lead, while Cheng and Kang Daozheng took the lead. The style of Zhenguan is sung today. " [22]
Official Xiu of Northern Song Dynasty Official history New Tang Dynasty Book Ouyang Xiu Song Qi The comments of others are: "What a great thing! The king of supreme governance is not born from generation to generation! Yu has the world, and it is said that there are six kings in ten, and Shaokang has the cause of rejuvenation. Tang has the world, and it is said that there are twenty-eight kings, and the one who is very prosperous is called three. The king of Wu has the world, and it is said that there are thirty-six kings, and the governance and publicity of success, health, and others have nothing to say. Although" Poetry "," Book " It is recorded that there are always some shortcomings. However, there have been more than 700 years in three generations, and more than 70 monarchs have been passed down. These six or seven monarchs are outstanding in later generations. Alas, it's rare! The Tang Dynasty has the world and has been handed down for twenty generations. It can be called the three monarchs. Both Xuanzong and Xianzong can't stop it. What a prosperous place! In addition to the chaos of the Sui Dynasty, it compared with Tang and Wu; The beauty of governance is almost perfect and healthy.
