In the early years of Kaiyuan, he was promoted because of his merits and served as a special envoy in Pingle Prefecture, Guazhou. Later, he followed the right general Rao Wei and Guo Qian, lord protector, to guard the Northern Dynasties. At that time, Tubo, Turkic, Qidan and other tribes repeatedly committed crimes in Beiting and Guazhou, and Qian Jin sent Zhang Shou to Beijing to play a role. He wrote to the imperial court and invited himself to lead the army. He attacked from Puchang and Luntai, and once again repelled the invasion of the Turkish army. In every battle, he attacked Bike because of his ability to organize and command independent operations, and was added as general of Jinan for his merits. Soon, he was transferred to Liang Shefu in Youzhou as Guo Yi, and was highly valued by Lu Qiqing, the secretariat of Youzhou. Later, because of the meritorious military service, he was promoted to General Sargingo and Ambassador Jiankang.
After the defeat of Tubo in the 15th year of Kaiyuan (727), Tubo invaded Hexi area and captured Guazhou. In order to reverse the war and resist the Tubo invasion, Xuanzong transferred Zhang Shou to Guazhou as the secretariat and as the envoy of Murray.
After receiving the appointment, Zhang Shou took a small amount of Qin Bing to Guazhou to take office. Not long after the Tubo army retreated, Guazhou City was looted, and Tubo could make a comeback at any time. The situation is very serious. Time and tide wait for no man, Zhang Shou immediately organized the remaining soldiers and civilians to build a city, but just as the board of the city was built, the Tubo army suddenly rushed to the gate. When the soldiers and civilians in the city saw it, they looked at each other and were eager to face the enemy. They all had no fighting spirit. However, Zhang Shou is very calm. He first arranged for the soldiers and civilians to stick to it, and then ordered people to hold a banquet in the city, singing and dancing, and gathering troops to hold a banquet. At this time, the Tubo has surrounded Guazhou. Seeing Tang Jun drinking and having fun in the city, he ignored them. At that time, he was very confused, hesitated for a long time, and dared not rush to attack the city and retreat. When Zhang Shou saw that Tubo had retreated to the city, he immediately ordered the sergeant to pursue him. At this time, the Tubo soldiers had no fighting spirit and fled everywhere. After the war, Zhang Shou added Doctor Yin Lu, General Xuanwei, and left rank. In order to strengthen the defense against Tubo, the imperial court set up Guazhou viceroy, with Zhang Shou as the viceroy.
In the 16th year of Kaiyuan (728), General Tubo learned that the late Lord Lang led the troops to attack Tangguazhou and was defeated by Zhang Shou. After the war, Zhang Shou was named General You Yulin, who also served as the secretariat of Yanzhou and Longyou.
In the 17th year of Kaiyuan (729), in order to crack down on Tubo, Zhang Shou, the secretariat of Guazhou, and Jia Shishun, the secretariat of Shazhou, led troops to launch a surprise attack on Datong Army in Tufan. Because of the sudden action, the Tubo army was caught off guard, and Tang Jun won a great victory.
In the 18th year of Kaiyuan (730), Tubo sent an envoy to make peace with the book.
In 733, when the Qidan Kaiyuan was pacified, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ordered Zhang Shou to move to Youzhou, the town, as an envoy. Qidan and Xi, who were active in the northeast of Youzhou at that time, were powerful, especially Qidan Yaguan, who were brave and good at fighting and often invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty. There were Zhao, Xue Chuyu and others before, who spent a long time in Youzhou, unable to conquer Tugan. After Zhang Shou took office, he reorganized the military and political affairs, encouraged the soldiers, and took the initiative to attack the Khitan, winning many battles. Zhang Shou was appointed as an imperial advisor, commander-in-chief of Yingzhou, deputy envoy of Hebei Province and ambassador of Hebei Province, and was received and disposed of.
In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan (734), Qula and Ketugan, leaders of the Qidan, were very afraid of Zhang Shou. They felt that there was no hope of winning on the battlefield, so they changed their strategy and sent envoys to surrender in order to make a show. But their plan was seen through by Zhang Shou, and Zhang Shou played along and sent Wang Regret to the camp to discuss surrender. Qu La refused to give up and wanted to kill Wang and regretted it. When another leader of the Khitan fought for power with Ketugan, the king's remorse had already aroused his vigilance. Wang regretted using contradictions to induce the breakthrough, cutting and stabbing, and the foreign soil was dry. Later, Wang regretted leading and other Qidan people to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. After Zhang Shou surrendered, he led an army north to Zimengchuan to inspect the army, hosted a banquet for the soldiers, beheaded Qula and Ketugan, sent them to the east capital, and hung them at the south gate of Tianjin Bridge.
In the 23rd year of Kaiyuan (735), Zhang Shou was ordered to go to Du Dong. After the meeting, he also ordered his subjects to gather for drinking and sent Zhang Shou back to the ancestral temple to celebrate his success. Xuanzong personally wrote poems and praised him, named him as a general of the auxiliary country, general You Yulin and an ancient scholar, and gave him gold, silver and silks. Therefore, his two sons obtained official positions and contributed to Zhang Shouli's inscription in Youzhou.
In the evening of the 26th year of Kaiyuan (738), Zhao Kan and others intercepted Qidan and Yu in the north of Huangshui, winning first and then losing. The false decree of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs led to this failure. We should learn from the painful lessons and reorganize our military forces in order to fight again. But Zhang Shou rejoiced, concealed defeat and lied about military intelligence. After the story was revealed, Xuanzong sent Niu Xiantong, a regular servant, to Youzhou to find out the truth. Zhang shou bribed the envoy sent by the emperor with a large sum of money and gifts, and wrote a letter stating the same facts as before. Later, Niu Xiantong was found because of stolen goods, and Zhang Shou commuted his sentence with his old merits and was demoted to the state secretariat.
On May 6th, the 28th year of Kaiyuan (June 4th, 740), Zhang Shou died in Shuozhou official residence at the age of 57. To Governor Liangzhou. In the same year, he was buried in North Mangshan, Luoyang.
The main achievement is that military politics is empty.
In the 15th year of Kaiyuan (727), Zhang Shou was promoted to the secretariat of Guazhou. During his tenure, according to historical records, he said: "Build a city and build a river bank; A stable political situation has been formed, enabling the working people to recuperate. When the Tubo army attacked, it retreated the enemy with an empty city plan and suffered a great defeat. The history is called the battle between Tang and Tubo Guazhou.
You Zhou Kai steet
In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan (734), when Zhang Shou moved to Youzhou Town. As soon as he arrived, he immediately rectified the military and political affairs and encouraged the soldiers. On the one hand, actively rectify the military forces and cultivate foot soldiers; On the other hand, strengthen the defense of Youzhou City and thicken the city walls. Waiting for an opportunity to take the initiative to attack the Khitan, he won many battles, and defeated the Khitan in June, which showed Zhang Shou's outstanding ability to run the army.
Agricultural economic governance in Guazhou
Guazhou is located in Xiqiao, where the climate is harsh, most of the land belongs to desert, which is not suitable for farming and breeding, and there is little rainfall every year. Local farmers can only rely on snow water to irrigate their fields. Due to the continuous invasion of Tubo, canals and weirs have been destroyed, and few trees have been planted in the fields, which is difficult to repair, resulting in serious difficulties in agricultural production. Zhang Shou attached great importance to this, and quickly organized manpower and material resources to repair the canal weir, which made the waterway unblocked, facilitated irrigation and promoted the recovery and development of agricultural production. According to historical records, in order to let the people resume production as soon as possible, Zhang Shou set up a sacrifice to pray. As a result, flash floods broke out that night, and a large number of trees flowed down the river until the gate, and Zhang Shou took them to repair the weir.
Personal work "All Tang Wen" recorded an article "Congratulations on Breaking the Turkic Form".
I want to think about some anecdotes and interesting things.
Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was very satisfied with Zhang Shou's ability to stabilize the situation in such a short time, and he was prepared to make him prime minister. "I want to think about Zhang Shou's achievements in the United States." But it was opposed by Prime Minister Zhang Jiuling. Xuanzong was unwilling and wanted to "fake his name and not perform his duties." Zhang Jiuling also dissuaded him and said, "Your Majesty thinks that as long as you break the Khitan, you are the Prime Minister; If it is destroyed, it will be rewarded by what official? " Xuanzong just gave up. Although Zhang Shou did not become prime minister, his position in the hearts of emperors and ministers is self-evident.
Adopt an adopted son
In the 20th year of Kaiyuan (732), Zhang Shou was appointed as our envoy to Youzhou, and An Lushan was caught stealing sheep. Zhang Shou tortured him and prepared to kill him. He roared, "Don't doctors want to destroy two ethnic groups? Why did you kill me! " Zhang Shou, seeing that he was fat in vain and had gorgeous language, let him go. He was ordered to take prisoners alive with his countryman Shi Siming. As long as they go out, they will be able to catch up on time, so they upgraded the Anshi rebellion to a river. Zhang Shou always thinks that An Lushan is too fat, and this person has always been awesome. An Lushan dare not eat more. An Lushan is famous for his bravery, so Zhang Shou adopted him as his adopted son.
