The influence and contribution of Huo Qubing's conquest of Xiongnu on the Western Han Dynasty and history.

Huo Qubing, Yuanshuo six years, the Battle of the Great Desert South. Huo Qubing, who was under eighteen, volunteered, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty named him Captain Yao.

On the battlefield, Huo Qubing with his brave blood, with 800 cavalry, galloped hundreds of miles in the vast desert, looking for traces of the enemy. As a result, his long-distance attack tactics won the first battle and more than 2,000 people were killed. Two uncles of Hun Khan were killed and one was captured alive. And Huo Qubing and others got away with it. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty immediately named him the top scholar and praised him for his courage in the three armed forces.

In the spring of the second year of Yuanshou, Huo Qubing was appointed as the general of a title of generals in ancient times and led 10,000 chosen men to the Huns alone. This is the Hexi War.

19-year-old commander-in-chief Huo Qubing lived up to expectations and made a beautiful detour in the desert like lightning. In six days, I moved to the Five Huns and made great strides all the way. In Gaolan Mountain, I fought a life-and-death battle with the Xiongnu emperors and Zhelan kings. In this battle, Huo Qubing suffered a crushing defeat, leaving only 3,000 of the 10,000 chosen men. Xiongnu suffered heavy losses-Lu Hou and Zhelan Wang Shuangshuang died, Prince Xie Hun, Guo Xiang and a captain were captured, and 8,960 people were killed. The Xiongnu sacrificed to heaven and became the trophy of the Han army.

After this battle of blood and fire, no one in the Han Dynasty questioned the young Huo Qubing's ability to unify the army. He became a model of a generation of soldiers in the Han army and the embodiment of martial spirit.

In the summer of the same year, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty decided to pursue the victory and launch a war to recover Hexi.

In this war, Huo Qubing became the commander-in-chief of the Han army, while Li Guang and others, veterans for many years, only served as his coordinator. What makes people laugh and cry is that an old horse like Gongsun Ao, who often runs in the desert, is not as good as Huo Qubing, the son of Chang 'an two years ago, who got lost in the desert and didn't play its due auxiliary role. Veteran Li Guang and his men were surrounded by Xiongnu Zuo Wang Xian.

Huo Qubing went further alone and won again. In Qilian Mountain, Huo Qubing and his men killed more than 30,000 people and captured 5 Xiongnu princes, 59 Xiongnu princes and 63 General Guo Xiang.

After this war, the Huns had to retreat to the north of Yanqi Mountain, and the Han Dynasty recovered the Hexi Plain. The Huns, who once did whatever they wanted in the Han Dynasty and ruined countless families in the Han Dynasty, finally sang a lamentation about the death of Qilian Mountain, which made my six animals unhappy. Losing my rouge mountain makes my woman colorless.

Since then, the prestige of the Han army has greatly increased, and Huo Qubing, aged 19, has become the god of war that scares the Huns.

What really makes Huo Qubing like a god is the surrender of Hexi, which happened in autumn.

After the two Hexi wars, the Huns Khan wanted to deal with the evil king of Xiongnu who had been defeated repeatedly. After the news leaked, the evil king of Xiongnu and the king of Xiutu wanted to go to the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't know whether the Xiongnu surrender was true or not, so he sent Huo Qubing to the Yellow River to surrender.

When Huo Qubing led the troops across the Yellow River, there was indeed a mutiny when the Huns surrendered. Faced with such a situation, Huo Qubing rushed into the Xiongnu camp with only a few Qin Bing, confronted the evil king of Xiongnu and ordered him to kill the mutinous soldiers. We will never guess what the evil king is thinking at this moment.

At that moment, he had every chance to take Huo Qubing hostage or kill him for revenge. As long as he does, Khan will reward him instead of killing him. However, the evil king finally gave up, and the momentum of this young man who dared to take risks alone and was not afraid of life and death stopped him. Huo Qubing's imposing manner not only scared off the evil king of Huns, but also scared off more than 40,000 Huns, and finally failed to expand the mutiny.

The surrender in Hexi came to a successful conclusion, but today we can only imagine with admiration how this 9-year-old boy/kloc-0 stood in the enemy camp when the situation was confusing and dangerous, and subdued 40,000 soldiers and 8,000 soldiers outside the account with only one expression and one gesture.

On the map of the Han Dynasty, there were four more counties: Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang. Hexi Corridor was formally incorporated into the territory of Han Dynasty. This is the first time in the history of China to face the surrender of foreign invaders, which not only makes the Han people who have been harassed by Huns for a hundred years proud, but also gives them confidence as strong people. In the fourth year of Yuanshou, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty launched an unprecedented Mobei War in order to completely eliminate the main force of Xiongnu.

At this point, Huo Qubing undoubtedly became the trump card of the Han army. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had great confidence in Huo Qubing's ability. In the early planning of this war, Huo Qubing was originally arranged to play Khan. As a result, due to an intelligence error, the game became Wei Qing's. Huo Qubing failed to meet his most eager opponent, but met the left ministry.

But this war can be regarded as the pinnacle of Huo Qubing. In the process of searching for the main force of Xiongnu in Mobei, Huo Qubing led his troops to capture more than 2,000 Li, wiped out more than 70,000 people, lost 15,000 people, and captured 83 of the three Xiongnu generals alive.

Huo Qubing, who was eager to see Xiongnu Khan and despaired of defeat, chased all the way to today's Mount Kent in Mongolia.

Speaking of which, Huo Qubing paused, led the army to hold a ceremony to worship heaven and earth, held in Xushan of the Wolf, and held a ceremony to worship the earth and Zen in Gu Yan. This is a ceremony and a determination.

After sealing the wolf in a professional position, Huo Qubing continued to lead the army to pursue the Huns in depth, hitting the vast sea directly until he returned to the army.

Starting from Chang 'an, I went straight to Lake Baikal and won all the way in an almost completely unfamiliar environment. What a great achievement!

After this war, the Huns fled far away, and there was no Wang Ting in the south of the desert. Huo Qubing and his "sealing the wolf to occupy Xu" have since become the highest pursuit and lifelong dream of China military strategists. And this year Huo Qubing, only 22 years old.

After completing such an unparalleled feat, Huo Qubing also reached the peak of his life: General Fu. However, only two years later, that is, six years after Yuan Shou, Huo Qubing, a 24-year-old general in title of generals in ancient times, passed away. When Guang was alive, Chu wrote in the eighth supplement of Chronicle of Later Generations since the 20th anniversary of Historical Records: "My brother rode in a title of generals in ancient times, made meritorious service in the army, died of illness, and was named the Prince of Huan. No future. I would like to share 3,500 households in Dongwuyang Yili with Dashan.

This is the only record of Huo Qubing's death in history books.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very sad about Huo Qubing's death. He dispatched an army of armored soldiers and lined up along Chang 'an to the tomb of Huo Qubing in Maoling. He also ordered Huo Qubing's tomb to be built in the shape of Qilian Mountain to show his outstanding achievements in defeating Xiongnu.
