Wei Xiaokuan, the first general of northern Zhou

author:Kanto Rider

Wei Kuan (509–580) was a famous military strategist of the Northern Wei, Western Wei, and Northern Wednesday dynasties. In his lifetime, he had countless brave plans and strategies in the southern conquest and northern warfare, and his outstanding merits were moved to the Great Sikong, the Shangzhu Kingdom, and the Duke of Yun. In 580, he returned from a crusade and died of illness at the age of seventy-two. Wei Xiaokuan was born in the Wei family of Duling in Shaanxi Province, a family that produced hundreds of commanding and fighting wizards from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, and Wei Xiaokuan was undoubtedly a dazzling one. Wei Xiaokuan had fought countless battles in his life to win the Battle of Yubi, which was the most brilliant battle of his tiger handle. Yubi's strategic location on the east-west Wei traffic artery is very important. In the twelfth year of the reign (546 AD), Gao Huan, a powerful minister of Eastern Wei, led 200,000 elite soldiers to surround Yubi and camped for tens of miles, determined to win. At that time, Wei Xiaokuan's army was weak and weak, but he had a good strategy to take advantage of the terrain and defend the situation for more than fifty days. Gao Huan completely reversed the siege tactics of that era. Tunnels, fire attacks, earth mountains, rushing cars and crashing cars are all available, but yubi city was not taken, the Eastern Wei army suffered heavy casualties and more than 70,000 dead, and Gao Huan's heart was sick with fire. Wei Xiaokuan took advantage of the attack to send out rumors that Gao Huan had been killed by a crossbow arrow. The Eastern Wei army panicked and demoralized, and the army's heart was captured, one day a big star fell into the military camp and the order was even more chaotic, and the next day the Eastern Wei army moved away, and a generation of tyrants Gao Huan fell into the sand under the Yubi City and died of illness on the way back. Wei Xiaokuan became famous through this battle to the rank of Grand General of the Hussars, and kaifu Yi and the third division. Wei Xiaokuan's marching army was characterized by his ability to use "intervals", and he was meticulous in his efforts to organize people with sincerity, and spent a lot of money to reuse the enemy's details (spies) for use and was also very hard. When Wei Xiaokuan was a general guarding Yiyang County, the Eastern Wei generals Duan Chen and Niu Daoheng tried to trick the people of Western Wei into submitting to Eastern Wei. Wei Xiaokuan recruited Xiao zuo to obtain Niu Daoheng's handwriting, and then found an imitation master to imitate Niu Daoheng's handwriting to write a surrender to Wei Xiaokuan, telling Niu Daoheng's intention of throwing himself into Western Wei. He also faked the traces of the lamp and burned it, as if he had written it under the lamp, and then he threw the letter to Duan Chen's camp, and after Duan Chen became suspicious, Niu Daoheng ignored it no matter what tricks he came up with. The two men distrusted each other and suppressed each other, which disintegrated the hearts of the army, and finally Wei Xiaokuan repeatedly captured the second general by surprise soldiers to ensure the safety of the party. The Northern Qi general Xie Luguang was also the pillar of the generals in the world, and if he wanted to destroy Northern Qi Shou, he had to get rid of Xie Luguang, so Wei Xiaokuan's spies once again played an important role. Children's songs are sung in the streets and alleys of Northern Qi Yecheng: 100 liters fly into the sky, and the bright moon shines on Chang'an. Mountains do not push themselves, and mistletoe trees do not help themselves. A hundred liters is equal to a hu, and the oblique law of light is bright moon. The nursery rhyme makes it very clear that the Gao clan wants to die, and the oblique law clan should stand. Xie Luguang was a loyal and righteous man who offended many people in the dynasty. His immediate enemy heard this nursery rhyme and thought that the opportunity to kill the oblique law light had come. Therefore, a few sentences were added: "The mountain collapsed, the mistletoe tree lifted, the blind husband ran up and down on his back, and the troubled old mother could not speak." Emperor Gao Wei of Northern Qi hesitated when he received the report, and it was rumored that this kind of thing had no wind and no waves, and there were three thousand waves. I'd rather believe in what it has than not believe in nothing. In the end, Gao Weiyi ruthlessly lured the oblique law light to the palace to kill him. The Emperor of Northern Zhou received amnesty after the news that Xie Luguang had been killed. I don't know how Gao Wei felt when he got this news. The pillar of the state was removed, northern Zhou easily destroyed northern Qi, and Wei Xiaokuan led his troops to seize the land of Southern Chen Jiu County, quelled the rebellion of Wei Chi, and died at the age of seventy-two after his return. All obstacles were removed for Yang Jian to seize the power of Northern Zhou, providence?
