< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > undertakes the important mission of preparing the imperial Tubo</h1>
At the beginning of the establishment of the Shen Ce Army, it shouldered the important military task of preparing for Tubo, which was also the expectation of the general Ge Shuhan for this army, although the scale was not large, but the military defensive role it played during the Xuanzong period was obvious.
However, at the beginning of the establishment of the Divine Strategy Army, Tubo was at a long-term disadvantage when it confronted the Tang army, which made Tubo dare not act rashly for a while, so in the middle and late period of Tianbao, the relationship between Tang and Bo was still stable.
Coincidentally, shortly after the establishment of the Divine Strategy Army, the Anshi Rebellion broke out within the Tang Dynasty that lasted for eight years. With the gradual defeat of the Tang Dynasty officials and troops, and finally the capital Chang'an was facing the crisis of falling, the Shen Ce Army also rushed to the Central Plains to fight against the An Shi rebels at the behest of the Tang Dynasty's central Qin King.
This was also the first development opportunity faced by the Shen Ce Army since its establishment, and in the battle against the An Shi rebels, the Shen Ce Army showed great heroism, which received great attention from Emperor Suzong and took it as the training object of the tang Dynasty Central Pro-Army in the future.
During the reign of Emperor Daizong, the Shen Ce Army was placed under the jurisdiction of the eunuch Yu Chao'en, which was an important sign that the Shen Ce Army was moving towards the forbidden center and towards the center. And when the northwestern border areas were attacked by the Tubo army for a long time due to the lack of troops, this Divine Strategy Army was given high hopes and undertook the important task of preparing tubo.
However, due to the limited strength of the Shen ce army during the Daizong period, most of it was placed in the important town of Gyeonggi, which was responsible for the defense of Tubo deep into the hinterland and the important task of defending Chang'an.
Later, during the reign of Emperor Dezong, the Shen Ce Army once again ushered in a new round of expansion, and this expansion had become the military leader of the entire Guanzhong region at that time.
At this point, the Divine Strategy Army had been ordered from the imminent danger of the Anshi Rebellion to the thousand-man army of the Central Plains Qin King, and suddenly developed into a central forbidden army of more than 100,000.
At this time, the Shen Ce army spread throughout the northwestern region of Beijing, becoming an important military force to consolidate the northwest border defense of the Tang Dynasty and prepare for the attack of Tubo. As a new star, the Shen Ce Army helped the Tang Dynasty defend its borders while also maintaining the dignity of the Tang Dynasty for the next century.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > key force in checks and balances in Guanzhong</h1>
The growth rate of the Shen Ce Army was amazing, and at the beginning of the Anshi Rebellion, the entire Guanzhong region was sitting on the first throne of military strength, when it was the Shuofang Army under the leadership of Guo Ziyi.
This army can be said to be a meritorious army of the Tang Dynasty, although it did not have a strong combat effectiveness before the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, it did not receive the attention of the central government, because at that time, the border armies that attracted much attention were probably Hexi, Longyou, Lulong, Youzhou and so on.
However, when the Anshi Rebellion broke out, the several armies that had attracted much attention before all disappointed the central government, and only the Shuofang army was able to fight with the Anshi rebels, but the disparity between the troops made it difficult for the Shuofang army to make a difference in a short period of time, and could only defend its own sphere of influence.
However, the mainstay role of the Shuofang army in the entire Pingding Anshi rebel army was obvious to all, which made Guo Ziyi a knight after the war, and the generals in guanzhong were basically from the Guo Ziyi faction, and the Shuofang army also became the only military force that the central government could rely on.
It was precisely because the strength of the Shuofang army was too strong that both Emperor Suzong and Emperor Daizong were jealous of it, and they were worried that the situation of the Anshi rebellion would once again appear in the Shuofang army, so they began to actively support the Shen ce army to become an army directly under the central government.
After the planning of The Three Dynasties of Emperor Suzong, Emperor Daizong, and Emperor Dezong, the Divine Strategy Army quickly grew into the largest military force in Guanzhong, and the Shuofang Army, which had unlimited scenery before, was divided into three at the beginning of Emperor Dezong's reign, no longer the courage of the past.
After the rise, the Shen Ce Army, an important task in the Guanzhong region, was to monitor the northwestern armies, which was a direct embodiment of the continuous expansion of the central power of the Tang Dynasty.
When the central government has a sufficient and trustworthy army, it is inevitable to control the military forces in Guanzhong, one is to prevent the tragedy of the Anshi Rebellion from recurring, and the other is to monitor the northwestern armies and firmly control them in the hands of the central government, in case of accidents.
< h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the East Expedition to the West, recreating Li Tang</h1>
The significance of the Shen Ce Army to the middle and late Tang Dynasty was extraordinary, not only because after the end of the Anshi Rebellion, it quickly grew into a military force directly under the jurisdiction of the central government, but also because it was able to govern many warlord factions in Guanzhong and even the military and political affairs of the Kwantung under the will of the emperor.
In this way, after the end of the Anshi Rebellion, in the stage when the Tang Dynasty recovered its vitality and restored the central ruling power, the Divine Strategy Army could be said to have played an absolute supporting role, and it could even be said that Li Tang was recreated.
The so-called Eastern Expedition to the West refers to the dual role of the Divine Strategy Army in the middle and late Tang Dynasty. Yuwai means that the Shence Army can be said to have played an important role in preparing the Imperial Tubo and strengthening the defense forces in Guanzhong and the northwest frontier.
Especially after Emperor Dezong, the Shen ce army has achieved unprecedented development, and the entire northwest and guanzhong regions are almost under the rule of the Shen Ce army and its generals, which also shows in disguise that Guanzhong, as the land of Longxing and the ruling center of the Tang Dynasty, has once again gained the effective control of the central government.
The Eastern Crusade refers to the Divine Strategy Army, which became the guarantee for the continuous expansion of imperial power to the Kwantung, and the tendency to divide the three towns of Heshuo became more and more serious, which also became an important heart disease of the emperors.
During the period of Emperor Dezong and Emperor Xianzong, the Shen Ce Army became the backbone of the central government and the rebellion against the Kwantung Domain, and achieved good results, and some of the victories achieved in the crusade against the Kanto Clan town in the two periods fully showed that the Shen Ce Army became a force firmly believed by the central government at that time.
