After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, the first thing to face was the Xiongnu. During the Chu-Han war, the Xiongnu developed, and after the establishment of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu became even more powerful. At this time, the Western Han Dynasty had just been established, and there were many problems to be faced, and under such circumstances, the Western Han Still waged war with the Xiongnu, but at this time, the Western Han Dynasty was not an opponent of the Xiongnu at all.
It is undeniable that from this time on, the Han Dynasty's century-long war against the Xiongnu began. Before the advent of wenjingzhizhi, the Xiongnu were almost "unscrupulous" beings. After the emergence of wenjingzhizhi, the emperors of the Western Han Dynasty began to change their minds. However, during the period of Emperor Wen of Han and Emperor Jing of Han, he did not take the initiative to attack the Xiongnu.
After the death of Emperor Jing of Han, Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty took the throne, and at this time Emperor Wu of Han faced the Xiongnu with only one way to do it - "fight". Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty began to take the initiative to attack the Xiongnu, so there was the Battle of Mobei, etc., and it is undeniable that these wars changed the Western Han strategy against the Xiongnu, and more importantly, the Xiongnu have been in a slump ever since.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, he severely damaged the Xiongnu, which caused the Xiongnu to suffer great losses. It was precisely because of this that the Western Han Dynasty changed its strategy toward the Xiongnu and pro-Xiongnu, and thus the Western Han Dynasty's strategy toward the Xiongnu underwent a fundamental change. The reason why Emperor Wudi of han was able to severely damage the Xiongnu was definitely inseparable from the military generals, so Huo's disease was one of them.
Nowadays, it seems that the historical evaluation of Huo's disease is mixed. For the Han Dynasty, Huo Wentai was undoubtedly a very important military general, and if there was no huo to go to the disease, then Emperor Wu of Han would probably not be able to defeat the Xiongnu. From this point of view, Huo's disease has been controversial, that is, Huo's disease has only won a few battles, what is the big deal?
Why do people see Hodgage as a god-like being? Nowadays, it seems that Huo's record of going to disease is fully worthy of the title of God of War. Huo Wentai's illness began to be famous from the time of the expedition, and at that time, Huo's reputation was so famous that it even shocked a person, he was the Xiongnu's big single Yu Yizhi. At the time, the Huns had not yet fully reacted.
In the past, the Xiongnu were accustomed to peace and affinity, and when they reached the time of Emperor Wudi of Han, they still wanted to continue to be close to each other, so under such circumstances, how could Emperor Wudi of Han allow it? At that time, the Xiongnu constantly invaded the borders of the Western Han Dynasty, and from time to time they came to plunder, which made the people on the border miserable. At this time, the Western Han Dynasty was completely different from the early days in terms of national strength, so the Western Han Began to counterattack the Xiongnu.
So Huo Went's disease appeared, and in the face of the constant intrusion of the Xiongnu, Huo Went's disease was out of the horse, and he destroyed tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops. After the outbreak of the First Battle of Hexi, the main commander of the Western Han Dynasty was Huo Fuyi, and the two Xiongnu were Hu Tu and Hun Evil. However, the two did not complete the task, so Da Dan Yu Yi Washi was very angry.
Da Shan Yu Yi Zhi ordered Hu Tu and Hun Evil to come to see him. At this time, The thoughts of Xiu Tu and Hun Evil had changed, after all, Da Shan Yu Yu Hadi's order to summon them was mostly fierce. Therefore, the foreign monarch's orders were not accepted, and the two simply did not listen to The Words of DaDan Yu Yi. Then the enemy of the enemy is the friend.
The Hun Evil King wrote a letter and sent an emissary to Emperor Wu of Han, that is to say, at this time, Hu Tu and Hun Evil had already regarded Emperor Wu of Han as a life-saving straw. Xiu Tu and Hun Evil led an army of more than 100,000 people, and under such circumstances, it was undoubtedly very good for the Western Han Dynasty. More than a hundred thousand people came to surrender, which is undoubtedly very good. In the face of the letter sent by the emissaries of The Hun Tu and the Hun Evil Sect. The Western Han Dynasty was undoubtedly very pleased.
But the problem is that an army of more than a hundred thousand people is not a small number, and once it is fraudulently surrendered, then the problem is very serious. When Huo Went sick learned of this, he dared to come to the tent of ten thousand people alone, and at the same time, Huo Went sick followed 10,000 cavalry in the rear. At that time, the Hun Evil King threw himself at the five bodies of this martial general who was only in his 20s.
The emergence of the Battle of Hexi undoubtedly promoted the process between the Western Han And the Xiongnu. At the same time, the Battle of Hexi was another major strategic action taken by Emperor Wudi of Han against the Xiongnu after the Battle of Monan, and it was also one of the three most important battles against the Xiongnu during the period of Emperor Wu of Han. Then again, at that time, Huo Went sick and went to the enemy army camp to be surrendered, and from this point of view, Huo's courage was unbeatable.
