The earliest war between China and India took place 1300 years ago during the reign of Emperor Taizong. At that time, a small envoy sent by China to India, without a single soldier in the Tang Dynasty, defeated the Indian army, destroyed the ancient country of China and India, moved the king of East India, and created a fabulous miracle. This matter has to start with Xuanzang's "learning from the West".

Master Xuanzang went through difficulties and obstacles, arrived in Tianzhu (present-day India), visited celebrities, sought dharma and gave lectures, and traveled all over the Indian subcontinent, including visiting India.

At that time, Mojietuo was a powerful country in India. At that time, India was divided into five parts: east, west, north and south, which were called "five Tianzhu" and "a land of thousands of miles and a land of hundreds of cities" in the Book of Old Tang Dynasty. Wang Banglin was founded in China, including sixteen Guo Bang, one of the sixteen states, and Mojietuo was located in the south bank of the middle reaches of Ganges River.

It has always been regarded as a Buddhist holy land by Indians, because it is said that the Buddha spent most of his life in this country. So when Xuanyuan travels west, he will go to Mojeto. In Mojeto, Xuanzang was treated by Luo Yiduo, the corpse king (the king who stopped the sun). Xuanzang opened the forum to give lectures and held a debate lasting 18 days, which made him famous.

Xuanyuan made great contributions to the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and India. Master Xuanzang not only taught Confucian classics, but also told the king of the Anti-Japanese War that "Emperor Taizong SHEN WOO was rude and four foreigners obeyed" (New Tang Book), and briefly introduced the grand occasion of China Datang and the wise SHEN WOO of Emperor Taizong. While admiring the king of the Anti-Japanese War, he couldn't help looking forward to the Tang Dynasty in China, saying that "I will face the East" (New Tang Book) is extremely enviable.

Shortly after Xuanzang returned to China, in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, that is, AD 64 1 year, the anti-Japanese king "sent envoys to pay tribute" and submitted credentials to the Tang Dynasty, indicating friendship from generation to generation.

Emperor Taizong's "sending letters of condolence" and the suspension of the Japanese king's "receiving letters" (old Tang books) are regarded as submission to China. Later, Emperor Taizong sent envoys back to India many times, and China and India formally established diplomatic relations.

In the twenty-second year of Zhenguan, in 648 AD, Emperor Taizong "sent Wang Shi, the right and right governor, to make his country prosperous" (New Tang Book) and sent a delegation to visit India. As a result, there was a little accident this time. It was this accident that triggered the first encounter between China and India. Wang Xuance, the person in charge of this mission, is useless. Single-handedly, the Tang Dynasty borrowed a division from the south, thus destroying Mazhuang State, where the soldiers were stronger than Ma Zhuang. At that time, "Scared Tianzhu" (Old Tang Book) greatly strengthened China's national prestige.

Wang Xuance, Han nationality, was born in Luoyang, Henan Province in the Tang Dynasty. He made three missions to India from 643 to 66 1 year. What happened was his second trip to India. By that time, Mojeto had changed. It turns out that the king who withdrew from the Japanese War died, and his bannerman Arona took the opportunity to arise, set up his own business and took control of the political power.

But the communication was underdeveloped at that time, and the Tang Dynasty didn't know it. Now, it has caused a global sensation, and all women and children know it. Arona Shun heard that Tang Shi was coming, but he didn't buy it. He sent troops to intercept and refused Tang Shi entry.

He not only robbed the Tang envoys of gifts, but also captured Wang Xuance and his entourage of 30 people and put them in prison. Later, with the help of Jieri Wang's sister, Wang Xuance and his deputy Jiang "fled at night" ("Old Tang Book"), escaped by luck and went to Tubo to move reinforcements.

Tubo is a new force in the southwest border of China. After Princess Wencheng entered Tibet and married Songzan Gambu, Songzan Gambu accepted the official position of Tang Dynasty (a captain of Xu) and was made a knight (king of Xihai County). "Tubo and Datang are one family", which has a very close relationship and more frequent non-governmental exchanges. "Jin embroidery, ask heritage, across the road, endless joy.

Wang Xuance invited soldiers to rescue, and Tubo naturally gave strong support, so Songzan Gambu "sent soldiers from Nipolo 1200 people, and 7000 cavalry followed Xuance" (old Tang Book), not only sent elite cavalry, but also sent 7000 cavalry from Nipolo (now Nepal, then Tubo territory), all of which were handed over to Wang Xuance.

Wang Xuance troops south, sweeping. Indian soldiers were wiped out, more than 3,000 people were beheaded and tens of thousands of people drowned in the water. Arona abandoned the city and fled, but was captured alive by Jiang, the assistant envoy. Wang Xuance earthquake, far and near cities fell with the wind, even more than 580 cities. Arona was all captured by the royal family, and Wang Xuance's "taking my concubine, the prince, 22,000 men and women, and 30,000 miscellaneous animals" (The Book of the New Tang Dynasty) was "stunned" for a while.

The body of King Cuomo of East India (East Tianzhu) was frightened when he saw the battle. He soon "sent 30,000 horses and cattle to feed the army" (New Tang Book) and presented rare treasures, thus surrendering to the Tang Dynasty.

This is the only time that China and India fought in ancient history. As an ancient country of China and India, Mojeto is so fragile for the following four reasons:

First, the Tang Dynasty flourished, the country prospered, Wang Xuance was confident, insulted and angered, and people were particularly brave in anger;

Second, Tubo has just risen, and the soldiers are strong and good at fighting, and they are closely related to the Tang Dynasty and help each other;

Third, India has always advocated Buddhism, the art of war is not good, and the force is weak;

Fourth, the country of Mojeto coincides with civil strife and political instability. This is not difficult to draw from the fact that King Jerzy's sister helped Wang Xuance escape from prison.

Later, Wang Xuance went to India for the third time, arrived in Borneo (present-day northern Dabanga, India), visited Mahabodaji, and returned after worshipping Buddha. He brought back many precious Buddhist relics and wrote A Journey to China and Tianzhu, which made great contributions to the cultural exchange between China and India.
