On July 12 of the fifteenth year of Tianbao (755), the crown prince Li Heng ascended the throne in Lingwu under the planning of his ministers, changed the Yuan to virtue, and respected Tang Xuanzong in Shu as the emperor.
Then ordered his son Guangping King Li Yu, Guo Ziyi, Li Siye and others to lead the army to quell the rebellion, seeing the army attacking, An Lushan ordered the Tongluo tribe to lead 50,000 elite soldiers to attack Lingwu, at this time Lingwu is equivalent to the temporary capital of the Tang Dynasty, the importance can be imagined, Guo Ziyi immediately handed over the task of blocking the Tongluo soldiers to Fugu Huaien.
During the Tang Xuanzong period, Fugu Huaien joined the Shuofang Army, and his top boss was Guo Ziyi, who was deeply valued by Guo Ziyi because of his outstanding merits.
Fugu Huai'en made great contributions to the pacification of the Anshi Rebellion.
After receiving the order, Fugu Huaien immediately led the army to fight with the soldiers of Tongluo for a day, but failed to distinguish the winner and loser, and when he returned to the camp that night, he found that the second son of Fugu Jue, who had gone out together, was actually missing.
The soldiers who inquired about Fu Gujun learned that it turned out that Fu Gu Jue was able to kill, went deep into the enemy army and was surrounded, and surrendered to the enemy army when he saw that he could not break through.
Knowing that his son had surrendered, Fugu Huaien stayed awake all night, and his son actually surrendered to the enemy, how could he bring a large army to fight? From this time on, Fugu Wynn decided that regardless of whether his son surrendered sincerely or not, he was doomed to die.
Three days later, Fugu Huaien reorganized the army and prepared to fight to the death with the enemy, but found that his son Fugu Huaien came back, Fugu Huaien didn't say a word, and directly ordered someone to tie up and behead Fugu Huaien.
But I didn't expect that Fu Gu Huaien ignored everyone's persuasion, and was unmoved, insisting on killing his son, until Fu Gu Jue's bloody head was handed over, and everyone came back to their senses.
Fugu Huaien put down his cruel words with tears: I hope that everyone will fight to the death today to defeat the enemy, and those who retreat from the battle will not be forgiven.
At this point, the subordinates of Fugu Huaien have fought to the death and did not retreat, with one as three, the rebels saw its great momentum, fled in the wind, and Lingwu was preserved, so that the stormy Tang Dynasty could gain a firm foothold in Lingwu, and Fugu Huaien made great contributions.
Uighur cavalry. Fu Gu Jue is not the first family to die in the Anshi Rebellion, in the entire Anshi Rebellion, there are forty-six people in the entire family of Fu Gu Huaien, which can be called a family full of loyalty.
But it was not enough to defend a Lingwu, Tang Suzong considered that the rebels were strong, and decided to seek the help of Hui Hui, and sent Li Chengyu, the king of Dunhuang County, and Fu Gu Huaien to send an envoy to Hui Hui to invite troops.
Hui Viga Khan took the opportunity to propose marriage to himself and the crown prince Ye Hu, and in this way, Tang Suzong's youngest daughter Princess Ningguo and a daughter of Fugu Huaien were sent to Hui Hui, and then the two daughters were sent to Hui and Qin, and the family did their best for the Tang Dynasty.
In the first year of Qianyuan (758), Tang Suzong ordered Guo Ziyi to attack Anqingxu, and the Tang army at this time was well-equipped, with sufficient grain and grass, and it was not a problem to take Anqingxu.
Tang Suzong, who saw the Anshi Rebellion with his own eyes, did not trust these generals who countered the rebellion, and secretly checked and balanced, such as not setting up a marshal, and the commander of the Tang army was the nine jiedu envoys headed by Guo and Li.
Even in order to balance Guo Ziyi, Tang Suzong let the eunuch Yu Chaoen serve as the overseer, and under several containments, Guo Ziyi lost Yecheng, resigned, and Li Guangbi replaced Shuo Fangjiedu.
Guo Ziyi's military power was seized, and Li Guangbi became the de facto first person in the army, so Tang Suzong set up the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses and ordered him to serve, but Li Guangbi shirked that the marshal should be let the prince serve, so King Zhao Li was the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and Li Guangbi was the deputy marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, becoming the first person in the army.
Veteran Guo Ziyi.
As for Fugu Huaien, he became the second-in-command of the Shuofang army.
However, Li Guangbi's strict management of the army, or Guo Ziyi's generosity is completely different, which also makes the gang like to be proud of their achievements, and the arrogant soldiers and fierce generals who committed the following crimes have to be restrained.
But long-term restraint is not the character of Fugu Huaien, after all, he is a very conceited person in his bones, of course, conceited people are generally ambitious and unwilling to be subordinated to others.
And he has long coveted the seat of the Shuofang military envoy, and now that Guo Ziyi is gone, as long as Li Guangbi is overthrown, he will be able to take the position smoothly, so he began to plan privately.
In the second year of Shangyuan (761), Fugu Huaien took advantage of Tang Suzong's eagerness to take Luoyang, and conspired with Yu Chaoen to persuade Tang Suzong to let Li Guangbi attack Luoyang.
Previously, the Tang Dynasty once recovered Chang'an and Luoyang, but only two years, the eastern capital Luoyang was captured by the rebel Shi Siming, and the pacification of the Anshi Rebellion was far away, Tang Suzong was naturally anxious, and wanted to recover Luoyang again and unite people's hearts.
But now is not a good time to recover Luoyang, the rebel Li Guangbi has just captured the rebel general An Taiqing, and realized the strategic intention of defending Heyang and connecting Ze and Lu Prefectures, which also made the rebels dare not go west for a while.
As a front-line general, Li Guangbi knew that the rebel forces were still strong and could not attack Luoyang rashly, but as a famous general at that time, his opinion was very weighty, and in this way, Tang Suzong constantly urged Li Guangbi to fight under the advice of Fugu Huaien and Yu Chaoen.
The Anshi Rebellion lasted for many years, and Tang Suzong had to bear a lot of responsibility.
How similar is this scene to Tang Xuanzong's constant sending people to urge Ge Shuhan to fight out of Tongguan? Li Guangbi had no choice but to take the initiative to attack, and during the attack, Li Guangbi originally talked about how to arrange the troops with Gu Huaien.
However, Fugu Huaien had long been attached to Yu Chaoen, and he was no longer afraid of Li Guangbi, so he made a blind layout, and was defeated in Bishan.
The current situation is quite dangerous, it is not good that the rebels will attack Tongguan again, if Tongguan is lost, Chang'an will be besieged again, and the counterinsurgency will reach a low point again.
Coincidentally, just when Shi Siming was about to continue the attack, he suffered the same fate as An Lushan, and he was also killed by his son Shi Chaoyi, and this is how Shi Siming, a generation of heroes, withdrew from the stage of history.
With Shi Chaoyi's coming to power, some rebel veterans basically disobeyed orders, and the rebels were torn apart, which also eased the tense situation a lot.
As for Li Guangbi, because of the defeat of Bishan, the above table begged for depreciation, although the imperial court gave him a lot of official titles, let him out of the town of Linhuai, but the era of Li Guangbi has ended, and Fugu Huaien successfully ascended to the throne and became the envoy of the Shuofang army.
During Shi Chaoyi's father-killing, Tang Xuanzong and Tang Suzong died successively, and the crown prince Li Yu succeeded to the throne, which was for Tang Dynasty Zong, Shi Chaoyi took advantage of the Tang Dynasty Sect's succession, and the foundation was unstable, and he planned to unite with Hui to attack Chang'an.
As mentioned earlier, in addition to being a general of the Tang Dynasty, Fugu Huaien is also the father-in-law of Dengli Khan, who was newly succeeded by Hui Hui, and has always been a matchmaker between Li Tang and Hui Hui.
After some words before the battle, Dengli Khan gave up his cooperation with Shi Chaoyi, and was even willing to help the Tang Dynasty conquer Shi Chaoyi.
Tang Dynasty Zong also reciprocated the favor and let him serve as the camp of the army, become the deputy marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and become the first person in the army as he wished.
With this credit, Fugu Huaien began to take pride in his achievements.
In order to show the sincerity of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty sent the crown prince and the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, Yongwang Li Shi into the Hui camp to meet with Dengli Khan.
Li Shi is also the future Tang Dezong.
Dengli Khan is regarded as the brother of the Tang Dynasty Sect, and Li Shi, as a nephew, should be treated as a junior, but Li Shi represents the Tang Dynasty, is also the marshal of the Tang Dynasty, and is the future son of the Tang Dynasty, so he chose to meet him as an equal.
Dengli Khan was immediately unhappy, not only reprimanded Li Shi, but even asked him to perform the dance salute of the juniors, that is, kowtow, Li Shi resolutely refused.
Yao Ziang, who followed Li Shi's envoy, naturally couldn't see the prince being humiliated, so he debated it, and suddenly provoked General Hui and General Chebi, who dragged Yao Ziang, Wei Shaohua and others out of the big tent in public, and ordered people to beat each with a hundred rods.
In this way, Li Shi's entourage was beaten to death, and Wei Shaohua was even seriously injured and died.
Li Shihe, who grew up in the palace, had seen such a posture, but he didn't know how to deal with it, or Yao Ziang's screams alarmed Dengli Khan's mother, she immediately rushed to the big tent, first reprimanded General Chebi, and then apologized to Li Shi, and escorted him away.
As for Fugu Huaien, as the deputy marshal and the father-in-law of Dengli Khan, he watched this scene indifferently, allowing Hui to insult the future prince of the Tang Dynasty, of course, his indifference also offended Li Shi.
However, cooperation still has to cooperate, and the premise of the Hui Hui agreeing to jointly send troops was to capture Luoyang and let the Hui army plunder, and Tang Dynasty Zong also agreed.
In the first year of Baoying (762), the Tang Dynasty and the Hui annihilated the 80,000 army of Shi Chaoyi and successfully recovered Luoyang.
Poor Luoyang has been plundered again and again.
As for Fugu Huaien, as the deputy marshal of the Tang Dynasty, he also led the troops to follow his son-in-law to loot, and when the other Tang troops saw it, the deputy marshal had robbed it, why couldn't he rob it, just like that, Luoyang was robbed twice by the Hui and Tang troops.
But in any case, this expedition to Shi Chaoyi to recover Luoyang, Fugu Huai'en made great contributions, and the Tang Dynasty Sect also reciprocated the favor, and named him the king of Daning County, the capital protector of the north of Zhenbei and other positions, and his status far surpassed Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, becoming the leading famous general in the early Tang Dynasty.
Although the Anshi Rebellion was put down, the aftermath continued, and the remnants of the rebels still occupied the Hebei region, but they could not make much waves, and Fugu Huaien accepted their surrender and let them continue to occupy this place.
What does this mean? In fact, in order to keep his power, he asked these Hebei feudal towns to be grateful to him, and to put it bluntly, he wanted to raise his self-respect.
Zelu Jiedu made Li Baoyu and Hedong Jiedu make Xin Yunjing deeply suspicious, and immediately went to the court, hoping to be secretly vigilant against Fugu Huaien, and Fugu Huaien also followed the above table to defend himself after receiving the news, and asked the Tang Dynasty Sect to appoint these generals on the spot.
Fugu Huaien was the commander of the front-line counterinsurgency army at that time, and he held the military power, if Tang Dynasty Zong did not agree, who dared to guarantee that he would not secretly hook up with the Anshi rebels to do anything? Only to grant his request.
At this point, Fugu Huaien was at best a feudal town that didn't listen to the orders of the imperial court, but what Fugu Huaien did later completely nailed him to the pillar of shame.
In the early days of the Tang Dynasty, although the Anshi Rebellion was pacified, but after coming to power, he encountered a very tricky mess.
Tang Dynasty Sect. After experiencing the war, all parts of the country urgently need to recuperate, but the Tang Dynasty Sect was supported by the eunuch Li Fuguo and others, and the real power was held by them.
What's even worse is that the people at the bottom have been unbearable for a long time and the exploitation of the imperial court has risen one after another, especially the Yuan Chao uprising, which directly threatens the southeast region, the only tax paying place in the Tang Dynasty, and it can be said that as long as one is not careful, the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed.
Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty Sect was not a mediocre master, first ordered Li Guangbi to quell the Yuan Chao uprising, and then gradually grasped the power after solving the eunuchs and ministers inside and outside the court through power techniques, and then wanted to suppress and weaken the local Jiedu envoys through the eunuch Cheng Yuanzhen and others, in an attempt to restore the authority of the imperial court.
As a result, he offended all the local generals and powerful factions, and the same was true for Fugu Huaien.
In the eyes of later generations, this move is tantamount to the death of a cunning rabbit and a lackey, but with the situation of the reign of Tang Dynasty Sect at that time, even if it seems to be a wrong decision today, it may actually be the best solution for him after carefully considering the pros and cons at that time.
At this time, Fugu Huai'en had the great merits of the Ping'an History Rebellion, and there were Hui Hui invoked outside, and the feudal domains were secretly attached to it, and he also held the military power, and one bad was An Lushan's second, and the Tang Dynasty Sect was sure that he was wary of him.
Fugu Huai'en is now much more dangerous than An Lushan.
For this reason, Tang Dynasty Zong instructed his confidant Luo Feng to go to Hedong first to find Xin Yunjing, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and asked them to instruct Fugu Huaien to rebel against all kinds of signs, and Fugu Huaien was angry and led the Shuofang army to attack the Hedong army.
The prime minister of the Tang Dynasty sect appeased the servant Gu Huaien, on the one hand, to appease, on the other hand, to let him return to Beijing to enjoy his old age, that is, to give a step down.
To be honest, Fugu Huaien's later rebellion was purely his own anger and made some emotional decisions, and in the counterinsurgency, there were arsons who plundered Luoyang, insulted the prince, and connived at the rebels to continue to occupy Hebei, raising their own self-respect, and each other's black history of foreign aid.
After thinking about it for a while, he immediately took his own soldiers to return to his son-in-law, and directly gave the opportunity for the Tibetan invasion.
In the first year of Guangde (763), Fugu Huaien rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, and the northwest defense line of the Tang Dynasty was empty.
Tang Dynasty Zong called on the world's soldiers and horses to be kings, but only Guo Ziyi, Yu Chaoen, Bai Xiaode, and Ma Lu, the envoy of Zhenxi Jiedu, led the soldiers to Qin Wang, and the local feudal town headed by Li Guangbi did not save him, which eventually led to the fall of Chang'an.
Fortunately, with Guo Ziyi's ability to turn the tide, Datang will not die in advance.
After experiencing the desperate situation of losing the country in the first year of Guangde, the Tang Dynasty changed the original strategy of suppressing and weakening the local feudal towns, connived and tolerated the local generals, and the system of separating the feudal towns in the Tang Dynasty gradually stabilized.
Although the formation of a situation in the future will not be able to fall into the tail, the current Tang Dynasty Sect is powerless to stop this trend, and can only follow this trend, after all, his priority is how to let the Tang Dynasty survive.
Datang is now under attack on three sides.
After the recovery of Chang'an, Tang Dynasty Zong immediately chose to appease Fugu Huaien, to be honest, at this time, Fugu Huaien had Shuo Fang's army in hand, and it was more than enough to be a feudal town that ignored the imperial court, and the imperial court couldn't help him.
For example, Li Guangbi, even if the Guangde Rebellion is not saved, but the Tang Dynasty still chooses to appease, even if Li Guangbi wants to intercept the Jiangnan rent for his own use, it is no problem, resulting in whether the imperial court can receive Jiangnan taxes during the Tang Dynasty depends on Li Guangbi's face.
Everyone knows the ending of Li Guangbi, after his death, Tang Dynasty Zong dropped out of the dynasty for three days, and he pursued Wu Mu again, and he was extremely sad after his death.
Compared with Li Guangbi who saw death and didn't save him and watched the Tang Dynasty be destroyed, Fugu Huaien's black history is not so important, but Fugu Huaien is unwilling to accept the court's appeasement.
In the second year of Guangde (764), the undead Fugu Huaien invaded the Tang Dynasty again with the Tubo, Hui, and Dangxiang armies, and was finally defeated by Guo Ziyi and his son Guo Xi, and the Shuofang army brought by Fugu Huaien was also appeased by the old boss Guo Ziyi.
In September of the first year of Yongtai (765), Fugu Huaien claimed that the Tang Dynasty had died, and persuaded the Hu tribes such as Tubo, Hui, Dangxiang, Qiang, Hun, and Nura to send 300,000 troops to invade Guanzhong, a picture of the situation of destroying the Tang Dynasty, and he knew in his heart that if he could not change the dynasty, he would be stinking for 10,000 years.
Three consecutive invasions in three years, Fugu Huaien's ambition can be imagined, this time Tang Dynasty Zong did not choose to flee, but chose to stick to Chang'an with Guo Ziyi.
Fortunately, Fugu Huaien was violently killed not long after he sent his troops, and the army was in turmoil, and Guo Ziyi relied on his prestige and Yu Ze of the Tang Dynasty to persuade Hui to defect and successfully resolve the crisis of the country's demise.
Do you think that the servant is grateful?
Fugu Huaien's rebellion, to be honest, was purely caused by the lack of trust between him and Tang Dynasty Sect, and Lai Yao was killed before that, purely because he had already disobeyed the order of the court, which had constituted the phenomenon of supporting the army and self-respect, so that the weak-hearted Fugu Huaien thought that Tang Dynasty Zong appeased him on the surface, but in fact, he went to Chang'an to kill him in order to trick him into the court.
Later generations always thought that it was the Tang Dynasty Sect that forced the rebel servant Gu Huai'en, but they did not see the situation of the Tang Dynasty Sect at that time, the authority of the court was weak, and the local power was too great, so he could only choose to weaken the place.
As for Tang Dynasty's kindness to his mother after the first rebellion of Fugu Huaien, it was neither trust nor kindness, it was purely a hope to win over Fugu Huaien anyway and reduce his pressure!
