Guo Kui (1022-1088), a native of Julu (now Hebei), was a politician and strategist in the Northern Song Dynasty. At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, his ancestors moved to the capital, were buried in Luoyang and settled down. Father Guo Bin. Guo Kui used his father's shadow to help the temple attendants in Beiban. During Baoyuan and Kangding years, Yuan Hao of Xixia disturbed the counties along the Song Dynasty, and Guo Zun, the younger brother of Guo Kun, was the governor of Yanzhou West Road and was killed by Xixia soldiers. Song Ting expressed sympathy and recorded Guo Kui as the third class. When Fan Zhongyan was deployed in Shaanxi, Guo Kun was transferred to him and treated him as a nephew.
2. What kind of person is Guo Kui?
Guo Kui's views on some issues are very strategic and highly respected by the public. At that time, two things showed Guo Kun's cleverness. First, the army talked about attacking Xixia and taking Lingwu. Guo Kui objected. He said: "The land is far away and there is no food. The city is big, there are not many soldiers, and it is not profitable. " ? As a result, it was not long before Ren Jingyuan's ambush was wiped out. People admire Guo Kun's foresight. The second is the view of General Ge Huaimin. Guo Kun thinks that he "enjoys doing things, but is brave in doing things, and he is brave and foolhardy", so he "will defeat the imperial court in the future". Soon, Ge Huaimin was defeated and died. Therefore, Guo Kun is known as a soldier. After the transfer, it was really decided that all the soldiers and horses were there, and Pingbao Prefecture mutinied.
Guo Kui is extremely meticulous about his work. When Pangji Town was in Hedong, Guo Kuiquan knew Xinzhou. At this time, the Khitans came and asked to cut the land of Tianchi Temple. Pang Ji could not decide for a long time, so he entrusted it to Guo Kun. Guo Kui found a letter written by Qidan to Tianchi County during the years of Taiping and Xingguo, which mentioned: "Tianchi Temple must be worshipped from a distance, because it belongs to the Southern Dynasty, and it is afraid to build it." On this basis, he refused to show the letter to the Khitan emissary, which made the Khitans unable to argue any more and was greatly impressed.
3. The life of the character
In the early years of Jiayou, Peng Qi, a native of Hubei Province, fought against the Song Dynasty, and Guo Kui added imperial equipment, which was under the jurisdiction of Beilu and was also the state capital of Lizhou. Guo Kun first captured Peng's cronies and put them around for biographies, asking him about the mountains and rivers there and the actual situation of defense. In the third year of Jiayou (1058), guided by the mini-history, he broke Luocheng Cave and waited for more than 20 dangerous passes, captured Xinzhou, and entered Taohuazhou, the base area of Peng at night. Peng, abandoned the city and fled, and the rest all fell. Guo Kui took the meritorious military service as the concierge, moved to Jinghu South Road, took charge of military forces and horses, and went to Shaozhou. Reluctantly moved to Rongzhou, and the deputy commander of Jingyuan Road was dispatched.
In the second year of Zhiping (1065), Guo Kui and Proofreading Pacific jointly wrote to the Privy Council. Ambassador from Fu Xuan, Shaanxi Province, was awarded as a native of Weizhou. After Song Shenzong acceded to the throne, he moved to quiet and stayed behind, changed the ambassador of Xuanhui South Hospital, sentenced Yunzhou to Yunzhou, and changed the town to Yunzhou. At this time, something happened and the court could not make up its mind. Jiang Zhong accepted the surrender of the famous Xixia Mountain and captured Suizhou, but the Xixia people killed Ding Yang, an official of the Song Dynasty. Public opinion in the imperial court believed that Suizhou should be abandoned, and the emperor even wrote a letter to abandon Suizhou after burning it. Guo Kuijian believes that Suizhou can't burn or give up, and should persist in resettling/kloc-0.3 million defectors. Therefore, Guo Kui decisively concealed the imperial edict. Soon, Xixia proposed to exchange Semen Village and Anyuan Village for Suizhou. Guo Kui believes that this is probably a fraud that is lip service. He put forward a condition that Ximen and Anyuan two villages must be handed over before they can be transferred to Suizhou. Because Guo Kui's emissary had a letter written by Wang Xiping of Xixia in Xiangfu, which proved that the boundary between Simen and Anyuan Second Village was under the Great Wall Ridge, and Xixia envoys could not refute it, and the matter ended in the Song Dynasty. Commended by the imperial court, Guo Kui said, "If you know this secret for a long time, you will know the opportunity of China. With such a minister, I have no worries in the West. " Guo checked Qiu and Xiong Wujun.
In the first month of the ninth year of Xining (1076), the court address was Li Gande, and it captured Yongzhou and other places in Guangnan. The imperial court worshipped Guo Kui as the general of Annan's camp "ma bu" or horse stance just look, and also appealed to Jinghu North Road and Guangnan East Road, and took his old soldiers in Yan Yan and Hedong to make a conquest. Guo Kun believes that Guangyuan House is a place where words are swallowed, and the soldiers are elite. If you don't eat first, you will be attacked by your stomach and back. He also analyzed that Liu was the mastermind over there. If Liu is not captured first, the military's right to speak will not be greatly improved. So the policy of focusing on attack was determined. Liu won and surrendered in World War I, and his military strength was greatly enhanced. Then, he attacked and pulled out Li Jueguan, seized Tanya, Menzhou and other places, and fought against Li Gande in Jiang Fuliang. Li Gande had no choice but to surrender. At this time, Guo Kun's original 300,000 troops braved the heat to enter the field, with more than half of the casualties and exhausted rations. Although they could not enter again after the water barrier, they returned to North Korea. After Zuo Wei was demoted, he was placed in Xijing and lived in seclusion for ten years. After Zhezong acceded to the throne, he once knew Luzhou and went to Guangzhou to inspect the ambassador, knowing the river as the second job. Take General Zuo Wuwei as the official.
Yuan You died in the third year (1088) at the age of 67. When he died, the emperor stopped for a day and posthumously awarded him as the envoy of our Wu Xiongjun.
