The history of the Sui and Tang dynasties was disturbed, but their foreign policy was the same, that is, to conquer the country of Goguryeo in the northeast.
What did Gogoryeo do that lacked morality? Why did the four generations of emperors of the Sui and Tang Dynasties not hesitate to spend national strength and financial resources to send troops to destroy this small country?
Goguryeo was a local government that existed in northeast China and the Korean Peninsula from the 1st century AD to the 11th century AD, and although it was a small country, it was also a small hegemon at the time.
Goguryeo's purpose was to establish an independent regime with him as its core system and not to pay tribute to the Central Plains.
Not only that, but this small country also forced Heishui and Baekje Silla to submit to him, thus challenging the tributary system with the Central Plains power as the core, which made the Central Plains dynasty unbearable, so several generations of emperors were iron-hearted, and several times sent troops to destroy this small hegemony.
During the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui, the Sui Dynasty took the destruction of Gogoryeo as a national policy to implement, and Emperor Yang Jian of Sui issued an edict to the king of Gogoryeo and said, "The king is as vast as the Liaoshui River, how can it be like the Yangtze River?" Goryeo people, how many Chen Kingdoms? If there is no yu in the existence of the yu, blame the king qian, order a general, why wait for more power! ”
This means that although you, a small country with projectiles, have Liaoshui as a natural danger, I only need to send a general to destroy you.
Yang Jian is obviously powerful, a generation of Ming Jun. He directly ordered gouguli to be a vassal.
Gogoryeo simply could not listen to it and continued to invade Western Liaoning in China.
Therefore, Emperor Wen of Sui ordered the Han king Yang Yu, Wang Shiji as the marshal of the march, and Zhou Luoyan as the commander of the water army, leading 300,000 troops to destroy this small country, the Sui Dynasty was very serious in the face of this small country, divided the water and land, water and land to attack this small country, but the luck was too bad, the army troops encountered plague on the way, and the non-combat attrition was very serious.
And the wind and waves encountered by the water army troops have not yet arrived? Gowly died nine times out of ten.
Emperor Wen of Sui's plan was thus aborted. It can only be said that although Goguryeo is a small country, its national fortunes are very good.
After the Sui Dynasty Emperor ascended the throne, although he said that it was absurd and unjustified, he was still keen to destroy Gogoryeo. He first marched three times in succession and put on a posture of stumbling to the end, but Goguryeo was still not conquered by him.
For the first time, he thought that Goguryeo had a disobedient heart and directly consulted. Leading a large number of soldiers and claiming that two million people were going to attack? Gogol.
However, the Sui Emperor made the mistake of taking the enemy lightly, and although he attacked Liaodong City, he was caught in the strategy of the general Gogoryeo to lure the enemy deeper.
Faced with the tenacity of Pyongyang City, the Sui Dynasty army was forced to return to the division,
The second and third times were carried out continuously, so a great deal of civilian energy was expended. The great power of the Central Plains, the ability to explode troops is very strong, but in the face of Gogoryeo, the small and strong Sui Dynasty that cannot be killed, although it is a large army, it has not succeeded in the end.
And the third time Gogoryeo let the Sui Emperor, the big thing on the stall because it consumed too much people's labor,
So the people began to be dissatisfied.
Ordinary people sang a song called "Death Song of the Endless Liaodong Wave" to encourage rebellion. They said that they would rather rebel than go to Liaodong to die.
So all kinds of rebel armies appeared. The more famous ones are Wagangzhai, Li Mi Uprising, Li Yuan's Uprising, and so on. Eventually evolved into large-scale civil unrest!
And the Sui Emperor was also powerless to suppress it, not only did he lose his own head, but the world of the Sui Dynasty also changed hands.
During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin learned the lesson of the demise of the Sui Dynasty, and he made a review of what the Sui Emperor did, and he resolutely did not do anything wrong with what the Sui Emperor did, but the policy he implemented in dealing with Gogoryeo was exactly the same as that of the Sui Emperor.
For the first time, Emperor Taizong of Tang led an army of 150,000 to personally conquer Gogoryeo. Although he did not win all the victories, he killed at least 40,000 people in Gogoryeo and almost destroyed Gogoryeo. In the ensuing battle, Tang Taizong used small troops to conduct guerrilla warfare against Gogoryeo, leaving Gogoryeo's army exhausted. The king of Goguryeo also could not support his son to come to the Tang Dynasty to apologize.
Tang Taizong was obviously much more intelligent than the Sui Emperor. Although the small hegemony of the region of Gogoryeo was not destroyed in the end, it also allowed the small hegemony of the region to be destroyed. Goguryeo was exhausted and fell into a situation of soldiers' fatigue and food shortage.
The final work was left to Emperor Taizong's son Emperor Gaozong of Tang. After Li Zhi ascended the throne, he sent the general Su Dingfang to learn to wait and destroy Gogoryeo.
At this time, the Tang Dynasty army was very strong, coupled with the blessing of famous generals and the civil unrest of Gogoryeo, and finally Gogoryeo was destroyed by Emperor Gaozong of Tang. The sui and Tang kings' wishes were finally over. Gogoryeo's vain dream of being a regional powerhouse was thus shattered, and the tributary system with the Central Plains Dynasty as the core continued to be maintained.
