In historical records, we often see the Central Plains people fighting against the northern grassland peoples. The mighty national wars are always interspersed at the key nodes of each dynasty.
The once powerful Han dynasty can finally play its own blood through war and establish a great dynasty. Those countries with a little power, such as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the Song Dynasty, were under powerful blows. Can choose to subjugate the country and exterminate species.
However, the Tang Dynasty recorded in the history books seems to be very different. It has neither gone through arduous struggles nor paid **** sacrifices. On the contrary, it easily defeated the other side.
Is it because the Turks are too weak?
Obviously not!
You must know that in historical records, the strength of the Turkic Empire is very powerful. As early as the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms period, the Turkic Empire had repeatedly intervened in the Central Plains regime and destroyed several powerful countries. Yu Wan, the prosperity of Beidi, has not yet existed. Looking high at Yinshan, there is a will to light the middle of the summer." The Turkic Empire in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasty was no weaker than the Xiongnu before the Han, and even stronger!
For the eradication of the East Turks by the Tang Dynasty, historical records have been attributed to Li Er's personal brilliance and the formidable military force of the Tang Dynasty, which made it easy to win the East Turks. Moreover, Li Jing, the chief hero of the war, was even more deified, saying that he had only three thousand to destroy the East Turks.
It is possible for Li Jing to destroy the East Turks three thousand times, perhaps not from Li Jing's military genius, nor from the military strength of Datang. Just imagine, the history books did not record much of this unprecedented battle, nor did it record any large-scale battles between the two sides. The East Turks seem to be a breeze, surrendering without a fight. This phenomenon is very abnormal.
Compared with the manpower, material and financial resources spent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in attacking the Xiongnu in those days, it almost emptied the country, and the Turks were probably stronger than the Huns. No matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty, it was impossible to defeat the Turks that dominated the grasslands so quickly.
But why was the country destroyed by the weaker Datang? In addition to Tang Jun’s coach Li Jing’s outstanding military commanding talents, what’s more important is that Datang has been "blessed by heaven"!
The four words "God Blessed" sound very mysterious, but they really exist. First of all, with the help of Changsun Sheng, the Sui Dynasty broke the Turks into two splits. Part-Eastern Turks and Western Turks. Although the strength of the Turkic Empire is still there, its internal classification factors have been formed and are difficult to resolve. Against this background, although the Tang Empire was embarrassed by the Turkic Empire in the early days of the founding of the country, the Turkic Empire did not achieve true unity. The two sides either engaged in internal conflicts or were unable to concentrate their full efforts on attacking the Tang Dynasty.
In addition, in history, when the Tang Empire was preparing to go to war with the Turks, the Turks were suddenly hit by snow and ice disasters for two consecutive years. According to historical records, in the first year of Zhenguan, "the country’s snow was heavy and the flat land was several feet away. "Hunger", in the second year of Zhenguan, "Jieli Middle School, frost in midsummer", how serious is this catastrophe? In fact, this was not a disaster confined to the Mongolian grasslands, but a major disaster in the entire northern hemisphere. The Tang Dynasty was also affected.
In the second year of Zhenguan, in the Yellow River basin of China, especially in Hebei, there was also a snow disaster, and the disaster was very serious. Even if the Turkic Khanate went deep into the Tang Dynasty and plundered it, there would be no gain.
The temperature in the northern hemisphere dropped suddenly. Severe snowstorms and frosts caused a large number of East Turkic livestock to freeze to death, resulting in an unprecedented famine. In order to maintain the military strength, Jie Li Khan had to forcibly collect military supplies from the grasslands, but this caused After the resistance of most tribes in the Turks, after all, the Turks are no longer monolithic!
So it was against this background that Li Er launched a war against the Turks, and the Turkic Empire has long lost the indomitable fighting power of the year, so this mighty national war will be fought like this. Quickly and easily.
After the fall of the East Turks, Emperor Taizong issued an edict: "Since last year, the payment has been reduced successively. It is not necessary to defend Huo’s generals and to wait for Jia Chao’s strategy. Bound your face and return to the Yi Mansion."
From this edict, we can also see that after the Tang Dynasty sent troops, there was almost no decent resistance, and many Turkic tribes surrendered one after another in order to survive. As a result, Li Er lamented that there was no need to labor or strategy at all, and the East Turks would perish.
But now Li Er intends to start a national war with the Turks a full year in advance. This victory or defeat is difficult to determine, because at this time the Turks are still very powerful, at least Jie Li is No one would dare not listen to what the grassland said! Therefore, Li Zexuan firmly opposes the dispatch of troops to the Turks in three months' time!
"Your Majesty, the minister thought it was very inappropriate to attack Turks at this time!"
In the Tai Chi Hall, Li Zexuan solemnly arched his hands after struggling in his heart.
As soon as the voice fell, the officials were in an uproar!
Manchu civil and military all knew that Li Zexuan was a "militant". When the prime minister of the Jie Japanese dynasty came to Datang to beg for marriage, he was directly sent back by Li Zexuan and threatened to fight if he wanted to fight; and the Japanese envoy before. When the delegation visited Datang, Li Zexuan was not only on guard, but sometimes also targeted everywhere. He was clearly not afraid of causing trouble!
After such a hard-line "militant" heard the news that Datang was about to attack the Turks, the first reaction was not to agree with both hands, but to oppose it? All the ministers thought whether the sun was coming out from the west today!
Li Er, sitting at the top, wrinkled his brows and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong? Jie Li ignores Datang, ignores me, and dares to send soldiers and horses to Yanmen Pass. I am a great man. Lord of Tang, why can’t I return the colors?"
People who are familiar with Li Er know that at this time Li Er is a little angry! Because Li Zexuan has always been a younger generation that Li Er valued very much, but today Li Zexuan's statement on the Tang and Turkic wars made Li Er very disappointed! I think that the talent he carefully cultivated is a fearful rat, how can Li Er not be angry? How not to be distressed?
"Your Majesty! Since the former Sui Dynasty, after the Turks were divided into Eastern and Western Turks, there has been chaos within the Turks. Coupled with the snow disaster that broke out in the Turks last year, the Turks have lost a lot of food. These are the signs of the decline of the Turks’ national power. Ah!"
In response to Li Er's disappointed gaze, Li Zexuan arched his hands as usual.
Li Er said calmly: "Since this is the case, shouldn't I send troops to destroy Jieli at this time?"
Li Zexuan hurriedly shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, although the Turks have suffered civil strife and natural disasters, Jieli's strength is well preserved, and the national power must still be stronger than my Tang! In the opinion of a minister,"
