Guo Ziyi (697 ~ 78 1) was an outstanding general in the Tang Dynasty. A native of Zheng County, Huazhou (now Huaxian County, Shaanxi Province). At first, he supplemented the long history of Zuo Wei with martial arts. In the eighth year of Tang Tianbao (749), he served as the ambassador of Hengsai Army. Later, he was appointed as the ambassador of Tiande, the satrap of Jiuyuan and the right army horse of Shuofang.
In the 14th year, during the Anshi Rebellion in Tang Ping, he, as the emissary of Shuofang, moved eastward from Lingwu (now southwest of Lingwu in Ningxia), went out to Chanyufu (now northwest of Inner Mongolia and Linger), captured the static border guards (now Youyu in Shanxi), entered Yunli (now Datong), conquered Mayi (now Shuozhou) and opened Dongguan (now northeast of Daixian County).
Fifteen years, he led the troops to help Li Guangbi, the deputy envoy of Hedong, who knew how to save our lives. He entered Hebei from Jingxing (now Hebei), joined more than 100,000 soldiers in Changshan (now Zhengding) and Guangbi, and even defeated An Lushan's colleague Shi Siming in Jiumen (now northwest of Gaocheng) and Shahe (now Dashahe flows through Xinle and Xingtang). When we entered Hengyang (now Quyang), we adopted the tactics of deep ditch and high base. When the enemy came, we defended and chased. We raised troops during the day and attacked the camp at night, which made us tired. We went to fight in Dongjiashan, Hengyang, defeated Shi Siming and his reinforcements, captured more than 40,000 people, recovered more than ten counties in Hebei, cut off the traffic in the rear of the An army and contained its westward advance, thus turning the tide in Hebei. John young, who planned to invade, learned that Tongguan (now northeast of Tongguan, Shaanxi Province) had fallen, and Emperor Xuanzong fled to the west, and led the troops into Jingxing with Li Guangbi. Xuan was ordered to lead 50,000 troops to Lingwu to guard the Prince who had just acceded to the throne. In August 756, Zhide Zai Yuan awarded the Ministry of War Shangshu, TongZhongshu Pingzhang and Shuofang our time.
1 1 month, Ashina, a rebel fighting for peace and advancing to Lingwu, joined Li Hequ, nine planets House, Liuhuzhou and other tribes, which relieved the worries of the north.
In February, Guo Ziyi led the troops to recover Hedong (now southwest of Yongji, Shanxi Province) and Fengyi (now Dali, Shaanxi Province), and once captured Tongguan and defeated General Cui Ganyou.
In April, he was awarded as the deputy marshal of the world military forces. Zhao Feng led his troops to Fengxiang (now Shaanxi), and ambushed and defeated the 5,000 fighters of general Li Guiren at Baiqu Liu Yun Bridge (now southeast of Sanyuan) on the way.
In May, he lost the battle with An Shouzhong and Li Guiren in Qingqu (now Xi 'an Anxi) and surrendered to Wudu (now Northwest Wudu).
In September, Marshal Li Chu of Guangping led the troops of Tang and Uighur1.5000, and fought An Shouzhong and Li Guiren in the north of Temple (now southwest of Chang 'an County). He was defeated, beheaded 60000 people, and recovered Chang 'an (now an) in Kyoto.
In October, with the eastward advance of Li Chu, with the cooperation of the Uighur army, Anjiang defeated Zhuang Yan, Zhang Tongru and other 15000 troops in Xindian (now southwest of Sanmenxia City, Henan Province), forcing An Qingxu to give up Luoyang and retreat to Yecheng (now Anyang City) to add Situgong, seal the title of Duke of the country, and was ordered to rule Hebei.
In the first year of Gan Yuan's reign (758), he entered the secretariat and was ordered to join forces with nine ministries and commissions, including Li Guangbi, to discuss peace and tranquility with hundreds of thousands of troops.
In October, he led the troops to cross the river until he was defeated by Jia (now Henan) and entered Weizhou (now Weihui). When Gui Lu and other four our envoys were still in Weizhou, An Qing led 70,000 Yecheng soldiers to help. Ziyi selected 3,000 crossbowmen to ambush in the camp, first beat back, and lured the An Jun army to the base. The ambush opened fire in unison, and the An Jun army was defeated. Ziyi led the troops in pursuit, captured Anqing and Anqingxu's younger brothers alive and pulled them out of Weizhou. Once again, he attacked melancholy mountain (now southwest of Anyang), killing 30 thousand people before and after, and then joined forces with various armies and entered Yecheng.
In March of two years, the two armies engaged in a battle with 50,000 Shi Siming soldiers who rescued An Qingxu in the north of Anyang (now north of Anyang), killing half each; Suddenly the wind blew and it became dark. Due to the lack of unified command in Tang Jun, all our festivals were defeated in their respective towns. Ziyi also led troops to retreat to Heyang (now south of Mengxian County) to protect the eastern capital. He was appointed as the marshal of Dongji, Ludong and Hedong, and left the right to know Du Dong. Later, he was destroyed by the eunuch Yu Chaoen and was relieved of military power.
In the first year of Baoying (762), soldiers from Taiyuan (now southwest of Taiyuan) and Jiangzhou (now Shanxi and Xinjiang) rebelled one after another. The imperial court was afraid that they would contact An Jun, so they were appointed as Fenyang kings, and served as deputy marshals of Shuofang, He Zhong, Beiting and Zeluxing, leaving Jiangzhou. Ziyi went to Jiangzhou to behead forty people and conspirators, and Taiyuan followed suit. Since then, every town in Hedong has obeyed the law. Soon, Ziyi was alienated by eunuch Cheng and was relieved of the military power again.
In the first year of Guangde (763), Tubo took advantage of Tang Ping's Anshi Rebellion to invade the vast areas of Hexi and Gansu. Cheng didn't report anything to. In October, the capital was shocked when Tubo attacked Fengtian (now Ganxian County, Shaanxi Province) and Wudu. Dai Zong took Ziyi as the deputy marshal in Shanhaiguan and stayed in Xianyang (now northeast Xianyang) to resist. Before the troops were assembled, Tubo led 200,000 people, including Tuguhun, Tangut, Bianyi and Qiang, to cross the Wei River and approach Chang 'an. Daizong abandoned Chang 'an and ran to Shaanxi, and Kyoto fell. Ziyi went to Shangzhou (now Shaanxi) and collected 4000 soldiers from the scattered soldiers and Wuguan (now southeast of Fengdan) to encourage the soldiers to take revenge. He also used the tactics of beating gongs and drums during the day and burning fire at night to scare off Tubo and recover Chang 'an.
In two years, Shuofang and Pu Guhuai, deputy marshal of Hebei Province, exchanged views. Ziyi served as deputy marshal in Guanzhong, Hedong. I was stationed in the river, and I was stationed in Hebei, leaving the town (now southwest of Yongji, Shanxi). Soon, Wynn's treachery was exposed, and all his followers joined Ziyi. Wynn went to Wuguan and led hundreds of thousands of Uighur and Tubo people to tackle key problems. Chang 'an was shocked. Ziyi was sent out of the town to serve heaven, and served as the Tubo ambassador to the north road east of Hexi, Yongning, Jingyuan and Tonghe. When Wynn and others advanced to Fengtian, Ziyi was deployed to the south of Ganling (now northwest of Ganxian County, Shaanxi Province). Uighur and Tubo knew that they were prepared, so they left without fighting.
In the first year of Yongtai (765), Uighur and Tibetan troops entered Jingyang (now Shaanxi), and when they heard that Pugu Huai 'en died suddenly, they broke off relations with each other. Ziyi took advantage of his contradiction and rode to the Uighur camp to persuade his commander Ge Luo to form an alliance with him, which greatly defeated the Tibetan army and stabilized the situation in Guanzhong.
In the first year of Dali (766), the army was stationed in the river, and in order to solve the problem of rations, the fields were cultivated by themselves. That year, there was no land in the middle of the river and there was enough food.
In the second year, Huazhou made Zhou ordered to crusade against Tang Dynasty, and Wen Zi sent troops and beheaded him.
In eight years, 65,438+10,000 Tubo troops attacked Jing and Zhai (now Binxian), and Ziyi sent military forces to defeat the Xiongnu (now Changwu), so he called the generals to discuss this matter, regardless of the defeat, only to discuss the plan of fighting again. The soldiers are divided into three ways and cooperate with each other. In Baicheng (now southwest of Lingtai, Gansu) and Yuan Pan, in the following years, many troops were sent to repel the Tubo invasion. Ziyi once wrote a book, reducing redundant officials, selecting and appointing talents, neglecting thin taxes, and enriching Qiang Bing.
In the past nine years, he was old. Because of the unrest in the border areas, he went to North Korea to protest against Chen Jian. He put forward that Tubo, Tangut and Tuguhun were the main threats, and elite troops were dispatched from inland areas to major towns in Shuofang, making plans to defend the frontier for a long time.
In fourteen years, Tang Dezong succeeded to the throne and was honored as the father of the country. In addition, Qiu was appointed as the secretariat, and other officials were removed. Guo Ziyi's great strategy, cautious use of troops, and the combination of leniency and severity in running the army won the respect of his subordinates. I have made great contributions to my country. I am fearless in times of crisis, and I have fought many battles and made outstanding achievements. He served in Xuanzong, Suzong, Daizong and Dezong dynasties and was diligent in his duties. He participated in national security work for more than 20 years and played an important role in consolidating the rule of the Tang Dynasty.
