In Chinese history, Tianzi led an army to go out on a campaign, called the Imperial Driving Expedition. Most of the imperial conquest can boost morale, eventually win victory, and achieve great achievements, but there are also emperors who have completely destroyed the imperial conquest, which has become a joke. Let's take a look at the emperors who have personally conquered in history.
The first, Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gaozu, liu Bang personally marched 5 times to pacify the princes of the country with different surnames. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Han Wangxin contacted the Xiongnu and waited for an opportunity to oppose the Han. Liu Bang led a 320,000-strong army to personally conquer the Xiongnu, and after the victory of the first battle, the lone army went deep and was besieged by the Xiongnu army on Mount Baideng for seven days and seven nights, known in history as the Siege of Baideng, and later Chen Ping made a strange plot to relieve the siege of Baideng. This was the only failed war in which Liu Bang personally conquered, and from then on the Han Dynasty adopted a policy of peace and pro-Xiongnu, adopting a strategic defense against the Xiongnu.
The second, The Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, after the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu successively marched seven times, eliminating Zhang Bu, Qin Feng, Deng Feng, Dong Xian, Li Xian, Kui Huan, Chimei and other forces, and was the emperor with the largest number of imperial conquests in Chinese history, while maintaining the record of total victory in the pro-conquest, through the pro-conquest, the Eastern Han Dynasty unified the whole country. The long period of warlord division was put to an end.
The third, The Northern Zhou Emperor Yuwen Yong, after Yuwen Yong seized power, personally led the Seven Roads Army to conquer Northern Qi, captured the Northern Qi Emperor, and unified the north. It laid the foundation for the later Sui Dynasty to unify the whole country. Later, he personally led the Five Roads Army, and the Northern Expedition Turkic armies cut down the Turks, retired due to illness, and died of illness soon after.
The fourth, the Sui Emperor Yang Guang, before Yang Guang took the throne, personally led an army of 500,000 to destroy Chen, and then attacked the Turks in the north. After taking the throne, he personally conquered Tuguhun and three times personally conquered Goguryeo, the first time due to a command error, the Sui army suffered a disastrous defeat; the second time due to the Yangquan Port rebellion and retreated; the third time due to the outbreak of a large-scale peasant uprising in the country. The three conquests of Goguryeo caused internal contradictions to intensify and led to the demise of the Sui Dynasty.
Fifth, Tang Taizong Li Shimin. Before Li Shimin took the throne, he personally led the Tang army, marched south and north, and commanded large-scale battles four times. After succeeding to the throne, the Turks attacked, and Li Shimin personally led 6 horses, cut off white horses on the Weishui Ben Bridge as an alliance, and retreated to the Turks. In 644, Emperor Taizong of Tang personally conquered Goguryeo, but due to poor grain and grass, people were trapped and lacking, and eventually withdrew, but severely damaged Goguryeo, laying the foundation for Emperor Goguryeo to destroy Goguryeo later.
The sixth, Later Zhou Shizong Chai Rong, Chai Rong has five personal conquests, that is, at the beginning of the reign, the Northern Han Dynasty ancestor Liu Chongxing invaded the territory, Chai Rong personally conquered the battle, defeated the Northern Han, and once besieged the capital of the Northern Han, almost destroyed the Northern Han. The last three times he personally conquered Southern Tang and captured the fourteen prefectures of Southern Tang, forcing Southern Tang to become emperor and subject. The Northern Expedition to the Khitan Prepared to Retake Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures and Collect Three Passes and Three Prefectures in a Row, but due to a sudden illness, he had to retire from the army, and soon died of illness, and a generation of British lords ended in hatred.
In the seventh place, Zhao Guangyi, Emperor Taizong of Song, after Zhao Guangyi took the throne, in order to stabilize the situation in the north, led an army to personally conquer the Northern Han, repelled Liao reinforcements, destroyed the Northern Han, and realized the reunification of the whole country. The following year, he again led an army to the northern Khitan and wanted to retake Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures in one fell swoop, but unfortunately the soldiers were defeated and wounded, and the Northern Expedition failed.
Eighth, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, Zhu Di led an army south to seize the throne, after succeeding to the throne five times led an army to personally conquer Mobei, one march, the great defeat of Ben Ya Lost Li, the sealing of Arutai as the King of Hening; the second march, the great destruction of the Wallachian army, deterring the Mongol tribes; the third march, defeating the Mongolian WuliangHabu; the fourth march, the surrender of Tugan, and the title of King of Zhongyong; the fifth march, Zhu Di planned to find the main force of the northern Mongolia to fight a decisive battle, completely relieving the northern border disease, but fell ill in the middle of the way, and died of illness in the Yushu River.
The ninth, Emperor Mingyingzong Zhu Qizhen, at the beginning of Zhu Qizhen's pro-government, was eager to prove himself, hoping to be the same as his great-grandfather Zhu Di, named Zhenyunei. At the instigation of the eunuch Wang Zhen, he commanded 500,000 troops, and the imperial driver personally conquered Vala, but was annihilated by Vala in one fell swoop, and Zhu Qizhen's soldiers were defeated and captured, which is known as the change of civil engineering. He also took the opportunity to besiege the city of Beijing, and under the command of Yu Qian and Zhu Qiyu, the Ming army won the victory in the defense of Beijing, avoiding the southern crossing of the Western Jin Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty. The Great Ming God of War has become a joke for eternity!
The tenth, the Qing Dynasty Emperor Kangxi Emperor Ai Xin Jue Luo Xuanye, Kangxi has three times personally conquered Kaldan, three times to break the Dzungar army, Kaldan was forced to commit suicide, successfully smashed the tsarist Russia's conspiracy to use Kaldan to invade China, maintained the unity of the country and the nation, and made great contributions to the formation of the territory of modern and modern China.
