In 284 BC, the state of Yan was defeated and took over 70 cities, and then concentrated its forces to besiege the only remaining Ju 'an and Jimo, and the state of Qi was in danger. After the King of Qi was killed, his son Zhang Fa was made King of Qi, calling on the people of Qi to rebel against Yan. Le Yi besieged the city for one year, and ordered Yan Jun to retreat nine miles outside the two cities, set up camp and set up a base in order to win the battle and form a stalemate. Shortly after Jimo was besieged, the garrison commander died, and the army and the people joined forces to push Tian Dan as a general. Tian Dan took advantage of the stalemate between the two armies to gather more than 7 thousand foot soldiers, rectify and expand, build more barriers and strengthen defense. He shared joys and sorrows with the military and civilians, sat and weaved, stood and fought, and personally patrolled the Yugoslav capital; Wives, concubines and clansmen have joined the ranks and distributed their meals to the foot soldiers, which won the trust of the military and civilians. And sent people into the Yan line deviant, Yan Hui Wang Ben hatred for a long time to attack Jimo, sure enough, then recruit, send people to replace. After that, Tian Dan ordered Huoniuying to smash and rob and recover more than 70 cities.
Introduction: Tian Dan (date of birth and death unknown) was born in Linzi (now northeast of Zibo, Shandong Province) in the Warring States Period. He is an alienated clan of the imperial clan in Tian Ji. After the restoration of the country, he lived in Qi. An outstanding strategist and commander-in-chief of the State of Qi in the Warring States period.
China 14 The greatest defense expert in history: the book of guarding the city.
Le Yi was divided up by double agents, and more than 70 cities in Qi were recovered together with the remaining two cities.
At the end of the Warring States Period, Tian Dan, a general of the State of Qi, relied on the isolated city of Jimo (now southeast of Pingdu, Shandong Province) to turn from defending to attacking, defeating the Yan army in one fell swoop and recovering the territory.
In the thirty-first year (284 BC), Yan defeated more than 70 cities, and then concentrated on besieging the only remaining Juxian County (now Juxian County, Shandong Province) and Jimo, and Qi was in danger (see the battle of losing Qi). After the King of Qi was killed, his son Zhang Fa was made King of Qi, calling on the people of Qi to rebel against Yan. Le Yi besieged the city for one year, and ordered Yan Jun to retreat to nine miles outside the two cities to camp and build a base, so as to win or lose and form a stalemate.
Jimo, located in the rich Jiaodong, is a big city of Qi, with abundant materials and a large population, which has certain defensive conditions. Shortly after Jimo was besieged, the garrison commander died, and the military and civilians promoted Tian Dan as a general. Tian Dan took advantage of the stalemate between the two armies to gather more than 7,000 foot soldiers, rectify and expand them, build more barriers and strengthen defense. He shared weal and woe with the military and civilians, "weaving grass when sitting, and shoveling when standing" (Zi Jian, vol. 4, 36), and personally visited the Yugoslav capital; Making up wives, concubines and clansmen to join the ranks, eating and drinking for foot soldiers, won the trust of the military and civilians. While stabilizing the domestic situation, Tian Dan sent people into Yan Hang to sow dissension to get rid of his biggest rival, Le Yi. He lied that Le Yi's name was to attack Qi, but he really wanted to be the king of Qi and deliberately slowed down his attack on Jimo. If Yan sends another commander, Jimo will point to Sun. Yan Huiwang bears a grudge against Le Yi's long-term attack on Jimo. As expected, he was caught and sent a riding robber instead of Le Yi. Defected to Zhao.
The right tactics are riding and robbing, and they are replaced by storming, but they still can't get off the stage, trying to subdue the Qi army by terrorist means. Tian Chan played along, induced the Yan army to be violent, and sent people to spread rumors, saying that they were afraid that the Yan army would cut off the noses of Qi prisoners and worried that the Yan army would dig the ancestral graves of Qi people outside the city. After hearing the rumor, the riding robbery was really done. People in Jimo were very angry when they heard that Yan's army abused prisoners like this. Seeing the Yan army digging the ancestral graves, gnashing their teeth, they pleaded with Tian Chan and vowed to fight to the death with the Yan army. Tian Chan paralyzed the Yan army and ordered the able-bodied men to hide in the city, guarding the city with the elderly, women and children. He also sent messengers to swindle and swindle, making Jimo's rich bribe Jiang Yan with heavy money, pretending that Jimo would surrender, but hoping to save his wife and children. The Yan army, which has been besieged for more than three years, is eager to stop fighting and go home. When it sees that it will be completed, it will only wait for surrender and become more slack.
In thirty-six years, Tian Dan saw that the time was ripe for counterattack, so he concentrated more than a thousand cows, tied them with sharp edges, tied oil-soaked reeds to their tails, and put on colorful robes. One night, he ordered the reed at the tail to be lit, and the cattle ran to Yan Ying from dozens of pre-dug passages under the city, followed by 5,000 lean soldiers. The soldiers and civilians in the city beat gongs and drums and cheered. Yan Jun was frightened when he saw that there were knives on countless corners in the firelight, and the burning monster behind him rushed straight at him. The warriors of the Qi army took advantage of the situation to kill, and the soldiers and civilians in the city followed closely to help. The Yan army fled, trampled on each other and was killed in the chaos. Tian Dan led the army to pursue the victory, and the Qi people also helped each other with weapons. Soon the Yan army was deported and lost more than 70 cities. Subsequently, Zhang Fa returned to Linzi (now northeast of Zibo), officially acceded to the throne as King Qixiang, and Tian Chan was named Anpingjun.
Features: good at wisdom and strategy, loving the people like children.
Case closed: Buried in Anping Old Town after death.

Zangzhi hanged himself and gave Wei Jun two big jars of shit. Zangzhi wrote to Tuoba GUI and insulted him for "dying" himself. Write to Wei Jun, saying who can cut Tuoba GUI, seal Wan Huhou, and give ten thousand pieces of cloth and silk. Tuoba GUI was so angry that he made an iron bed and put a shovel on it. He vowed that once Xu Yi was captured alive and Zangzhi was caught, he would shovel him to death and chop him into pieces. Tuoba GUI sent fishing carts and rushed cars to attack the city, but he could not break the city. After being down and out, Tuoba GUI sent soldiers to take turns to attack the city and fight hand to hand at the cost of his life. Behind him was the Xianbei overseer team, and all the soldiers before and after died. In the end, tens of thousands of people were killed, and the dead bodies piled up as high as the walls of Xuyi, but they were still beaten back by the brave and tenacious soldiers and civilians in the Southern Dynasties and stayed in the city for 30 days.

Zangzhi sealed his urine and gave it to TaBaTao. Tuoba Tao was furious, built a long siege overnight, filled the incision with Dongshan earth and stone, and built a pontoon bridge in Junshan, cutting off the land and water passage of Xuyi.
During the battle of Xuyi, Tuoba Tao also wrote to Zangzhi: "The soldiers and horses I am sending now are not our Xianbei people. Killing them is only good for me. " Zang Zhi wrote back and said, "Do you know why Wang He and Shen Tan were defeated? A nursery rhyme once said,' Luma drinks the river, but the beaver dies for several years.' Before the age of Mao, the two generals were defeated and let you drink the horse from the Yangtze River. I was about to destroy you, but you came to die automatically. How can I let you go back alive! Can you compare with Fu Jian? Hu Lang went deep into Pengcheng that year, and it rained for several days, but no one came back alive. Why don't you remember? The spring rain will come soon, and our reinforcements will be surrounded, so you can attack the city with peace of mind. If you don't have enough food and grass, just tell me and I'll send you food.

Tuoba Tao was furious. He made an iron bed and put some shovels on it. He said, "Break the city to catch Zang and make him sit on it." Zang Zhi wrote a letter to soldiers of all ethnic groups in Wei Jun: "This is a letter from Tuoba Tao to me. You are all from China. Why do you contribute so much to the enemy? Why don't men know how to turn disaster into pleasure? " ! Whoever can kill Tuoba GUI will be given Wan Huhou and ten thousand pieces of cloth. "
Wei Jun hooked the tower with a hook, and Song Jun tied the hook with thick hemp rope in the city, so that the hook car could not return. In the evening, the Song army hoisted the soldiers out of the city in wooden barrels, cut off the hooks and pulled the hooked cars into the city. The next day, Wei Jun attacked the city with a blunt car. But the city wall is solid, and there are only a few liters of wall soil where cars collide every time. So Wei Jun shirtless again, take turns, dead bodies piled up almost as high as the wall. The two armies fought for 30 days, and half of Wei Jun died.
At this point, Liu Yikang, the king of Pengcheng, cut off Wei Jun's retreat, and the court also sent a water army from the sea to the Huaihe River, and many soldiers in the Wei army died of illness and epidemic.

Yu Qian was a famous minister, general and national hero in Ming Dynasty. In the autumn of the fourteenth year of orthodoxy (1449), Wala also invaded the frontier on a large scale, and the eunuch Wang Zhenjian proposed that Yingzong personally conquer it. In August, Yingzong was captured by Vala in the rebellion of Tubao, and the capital was shaken. I also took Yingzong and went straight to Beijing. All the people who could fight in Beijing went out with the emperor, leaving only 10 thousand soldiers. At that time, the capital was in a panic and rumors were everywhere. Rich and powerful families are all packed up and ready to escape. Among the ministers who stayed in Beijing, only Yu Qian kept up with the crisis. The first thing he did was to ask the Queen Mother to take decisive measures to let Zhu Qiyu, the younger brother of Yingzong, succeed him, that is, King Jing and Jingtai. This will not only stabilize people's hearts, but also let the outside world know that there was a monarch and a country in the Ming Dynasty, and defeat the attempt to seize the British Sect and force the Ming Dynasty to surrender first. In view of the discussion of moving the capital at that time, Yu Qian took the move of the capital in the Song Dynasty as an example and advocated the war of resistance to protect the capital. These ideas have been supported by Beijing. Yu Qian, as the minister of the Ministry of War, began to defend the capital. When he sent troops outside Beijing, he also sent people to urgently dispatch rations to prepare for Beijing. At the same time, he recruited fighters in various ways to build weapons day and night. Soon, more than 200,000 people will be able to fight in Beijing. Residents around Beijing have also been mobilized to prepare for the battle to defend Beijing. I also camped outside Xizhimen with the Vala army first. Yu Qian divided the troops into nine divisions in Beijing, and then went to Deshengmen with Fan Guang, deputy commander-in-chief. In the battle, Yu Qian made meritorious deeds, awarded medals and inspired the military and civilians. Unarmed residents also went to the roof, took down the bricks on the house and threw them at the enemy. For five days, the capital shouted every day. As a result, the Walla army killed more than 10,000 people and lost 90,000 cavalry. In this case, it had to withdraw from the north with Yingzong first.

However, Cao Cao led the main force of Cao Wei to fight Liu Bei's army in Hanzhong, and the distant water could not put out the near fire. The total strength of Hefei is only 7,000, and the strength comparison between the two sides is 14: 1. Under such circumstances, the battle of Hefei began. In the case of disparity in strength, Zhang Liao made a bold decision: take the initiative to attack. He raised 800 soldiers overnight and launched a surprise attack on Wu Jun at dawn the next day. Later, although surrounded by the enemy, all the soldiers were extremely brave and broke through the encirclement several times. After fighting for half a day, Wu Jun was terrified, and Jun gradually gained courage. People in the camp greatly admired Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao took the outpost, and the momentum changed greatly. Sun Kongquan had100000 troops, and the siege battle lasted for more than ten days. However, due to low morale, it was impossible to break through the battle with only 7000 defenders and had to retreat.

At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang was busy fighting with Zhang Shicheng of Soochow, and had no time to look west. Zhu Yuanzhang gave an order to Zhu Wenzheng, the chief executive of Hongdu: defend Hongdu to the death and wait for the army to come to the rescue! After receiving this order, they changed the style of doing nothing at the party, quickly convened an emergency military meeting, and assigned troops to guard the city gate. Next, the defenders of Zhu Wenzheng and Nanchang will face 600,000 troops-one of the largest and most effective troops in the world at that time! In order to inspire the soldiers, Zhu Wenzheng personally directed his Qin Bing to fight on the tower. Chen Youliang's 600,000 troops besieged Hongdu for 85 days, which lasted for 3 months and failed to break through. After that, Zhu Yuanzhang completely defeated Chen Youliang in the Poyang Lake War with empty hands. It is precisely because of the three-month defence of Hongdu that Zhu Wenzheng gave full play to his military talent and command ability, which is no less than that of any famous contemporary. It created the peak of Zhu Wenzheng's life and pushed him to the mythical stage of generals in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. Shortly after the Battle of Hongdu, Zhu Wen was encouraged by his subordinates to take refuge in Zhang Shicheng and betray Zhu Yuanzhang.

In addition, Zhuge Liang is resourceful and difficult to deal with, so he stays calm in a crisis. Zhuge Liang couldn't beat him, so he led his troops back. Wei asked Zhang He to stop the rear road of the Shu army, but Sima Yi refused and just followed. After arriving at Qishan, all the generals have been well documented, but Sima Yi still refused to go up the mountain to build a village. People accused him of being afraid of Shu like a tiger, but he ignored him. In May, people put pressure on Sima Yi, waiting for an opportunity to attack the Shu army. As a result, they were defeated and had to surrender to the camp. In June, Zhuge Liang retired and Zhang He chased him. And died halfway.

Famous Eastern Han Dynasty, national hero, nephew of the founding famous Geng Yan. In 74 A.D., he served as a captain of Wu, stationed in the department of Che's Empress (now Xinjiang), and hundreds of soldiers were stationed in other places, guarding the front position of Che's in the Sino-Hungarian War. 18 years, when emperor Han Ming, the northern Xiongnu Khan sent twenty thousand cavalry to attack Geng Gong. Geng Gong took the initiative to attack and rushed at the enemy front with thousands of men. The enemy was immediately divided and unable to attack the city. But the Xiongnu cunningly cut off the water source, and the mountain stream on the edge of the city dried up. In this desperate situation, Geng Gong not only took the lead, but also led the people to dig deep wells in the city to get water. With his encouragement and encouragement, when the depth of the well reached more than 15 feet, the well water finally gushed out. The Huns didn't expect there was water in the city. They thought that God had helped Geng Gong, but they left again. However, at this time, the situation in the whole western region was extremely grim, and the court was too busy to send troops to rescue because of the death of Emperor Han Ming. Che Shiguo, who had been under heavy pressure from Xiongnu, finally betrayed the imperial court again and attacked Geng Gong with Xiongnu. In the face of this serious situation of internal troubles and foreign invasion, Geng Gong and his soldiers "wait for sincerity, live and die together, so they have no second thoughts". A few months later, only tens of thousands of soldiers were left in Geng Gong, and food was used up. The Huns began the offensive of surrender, and they were tempted by "sealing the king and marrying the princess". But the more desperate Geng Gong is, the greater his ambition. He used his hand to persuade the Xiongnu to surrender to the messenger to show that he would never surrender, and "boiled his armor crossbow to eat his tendons and leather" to show his oath to live and die with Shule. In the winter when the mountain was closed by heavy snow in 75 AD, Geng Gong and dozens of brothers, who were hungry and cold, not only survived tenaciously, but also made Shule City an insurmountable barrier for Huns! ! ! After that, Geng Gong returned to Yumenguan, leaving only 13 people!

Unlike his uncle, Geng Gong's opponent was the Northern Xiongnu, and Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang could do nothing. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, relying on the powerful national strength of the Western Han Dynasty and supported by the militaristic Emperor Wudi, pursued the Huns. And Geng Gong, with no Qiang Bing inside and backup outside, relied on its loyalty to the motherland to defend Shule City, which made the Huns lose heart.

In August of 383 AD, Fu Jian, a famous Eastern Jin Dynasty soldier, led a 900,000-strong army. The east and west fronts went hand in hand for thousands of kilometers, and attacked Jin in the south. Under the heavy pressure of the enemy, the Eastern Jin Dynasty faced a critical moment of life and death and was determined to stand up and resist. Xie Xuan was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the advance, commanding 80,000 "northern government soldiers" to contain Qin Jun's main attack along the west of Huaihe River. In November, the power was deployed along the west bank of Feishui in an attempt to calmly engage with 8 Jin J. Xie Xuan's inner strength is weak, which is conducive to a quick decision but not lasting, so he sent messengers to urge Fu Rong to say, "The general led the army into Shanxi, but deployed along the water. This is a protracted war, not a quick victory. Wouldn't it be great if the former Qin soldiers could retreat a little, let the Jin army cross the water, and the two armies would fight it out? " Qin Jun's former generals thought it was a trick of the Jin army, and advised Fu Jian not to fall for it. However, Fu Jian said: "Just lead the troops to retreat a little. When you are halfway, kill them with elite cavalry and win." So, Furong agreed to Xie Xuan's request and ordered Qin Jun to retreat. In the past, Qin Jun had low morale, internal instability, chaotic appearance and poor command, which further caused confusion. Zhu Xu took the opportunity to shout: "Qin Jun lost! Qin Jun lost! " Former Qin Jun believed this, so he ran wildly and ran for his life. The Eastern Jin army, under the command of Xie Xuan and others, took the opportunity to cross the feishui and launched a fierce attack. Former Qin Jun collapsed, completely losing its fighting capacity, and 8 jin j pursued it. The former Qin soldiers stepped on horses, and the bodies were everywhere, blocking the river. The living people listened with trepidation, thinking that the nomads from behind were coming, and fled to the north even more desperately. Nine times out of ten, Qin Jun was completely annihilated, and Fu Jian himself was shot by an arrow, so he fled to Huaibei.

Ranked 4, Li Mu
Zhao people in the Warring States period. Li Mu's defense is divided into two stages, one is to resist the Huns. Li Mu often lives in Yanmen County (now the area north of Ningwu, Shanxi). According to the actual needs, he established a government official, and all the local rents were paid to the shogunate as military expenses. He is very kind to soldiers, killing a few cows every day to reward his soldiers; He pays attention to improving combat capability and trains foot soldiers to ride and shoot every day; He has strict defensive measures, sends personnel to spy on the enemy and sends out alarm signals at any time. He agreed with the military and civilians that once the Huns invaded, they would retreat into the fortress as soon as possible without an attack order, and could not attack easily. After several years of persistence in this way, the army did not suffer any casualties or losses, and formed a well-equipped and high-quality border defense force. However, the Huns thought that Li Mu was timid, and some people thought that their generals were timid after the military attack. Therefore, they often talk about it. When the prince of Zhao heard the rumor, he blamed Li Mu. Li Mu ignored it, angered the prince of Zhao, called him back to the DPRK, and sent someone to replace him. The new general has been guarding the border for more than a year. As soon as the Huns invaded, they led troops to fight. Most of the battles were defeated, with heavy losses and heavy casualties, and the border people could not carry out normal agriculture and animal husbandry. The prince of Zhao had to ask Li Mu out again. As always, in Li Mu, the Huns still got nothing for several years. However, after all, the Huns still think that Li Mu is timid. Soldiers in the border areas have received rich support and poor work. They all want to fight for the first world war. When the Huns invaded, Zhao pretended to be defeated, leaving thousands of people to the enemy. Huns were greedy for money, so they led an army to invade Zhao. Li Mu set up a surprise array, using two wings to outflank the Xiongnu army and annihilated more than 65,438+10,000 people in tarquin. After successively exterminating toads, attacking East Lake and descending, Khan fled. 10 dared not go near the border town of Zhao for many years. This war is a typical example of a large infantry regiment destroying a large cavalry regiment in the history of the pre-Qin war. It has a far-reaching impact on the riding tactics of later generations.
In 234 BC, General Fan of the Qin Dynasty captured Pingyang and Wucheng of Zhao, killed the generals of Zhao, and beheaded 65,438+10,000. In 233 BC, he attacked Zhao heavily. Zhao sent Li Mu as a general, and in Yi 'an and Qin Jun, Fan only led a few people out of the tight encirclement and fled to Yan for fear of sin. The king of Qin was furious and took thousands of households as the first. It can be seen that this great victory dealt a great blow to Qin, and Zhao got a breathing space. Because of his great achievements, Li Mu was named Wu Anjun. Since then, the State of Qin once again sent troops to attack Zhao and Li Mu, who were attacked and fled. At that time, Han and Wei had surrendered to Qin, followed the attack on Zhao, and Li Mu went south to resist the attack of Han and Wei. In 229 BC, Wang Jian, the general of the State of Qin, attacked the State of Zhao on a large scale. Zhao sent Li Mu to do his best to resist the whole army, and remained at loggerheads until the following year. Qin couldn't win quickly on the battlefield, so he tried his old trick again and paid heavily to falsely accuse Li Mu. Zhao did not make an analysis, and immediately sent someone to replace Li Mu. Li Mu refused to surrender military power for the sake of the country and continued to fight bravely. Zhao Wang and Guo Kai secretly reconnoitred, caught them off guard and killed them. Three months later, Wang Jian defeated Zhao, occupied Handan and destroyed Zhao.
Evaluation: The reason why I spent so much time introducing Li Mu is that Li Mu's military talents were unparalleled at the end of the Warring States Period. After the battle of Changping, Zhao was weak and as strong as Xiongnu. He, together with Bai Qi, Wang Jian and Lian Po, is called "Four Masters of Warring States". Among these four men, because of Qin's strength and Wang Jian's ability to play mainly on the offensive end, Li Mu and Lian Po were forced to choose defense most of the time. Lian Po's defense in the early period of Changping War was also correct and excellent, but Zhao was always a country with many bad emperors.

Wang Jianhe, commander-in-chief of Xingyuan at that time, built a stone city with a circumference of 123 Li and a height of 230 Zhang according to the mountain situation. Under the leadership of Wang Jian, 65,438+ten thousand soldiers and civilians United as one and resolutely fought against Mongolia. In February of the following year, Mongo Khan led an army to storm the fishing city. The soldiers and civilians guarding the city were indestructible, all the wood and stones were thrown, and the artillery was fired from a distance, which made the Mongolian army's attack fail. It rained heavily for 20 days in April, and the Mongols used the rainy night to sneak up on Song Jun, killing many people. Wang Jianlin led the troops to fight back and beat back the Mongolian army. It was hot in May, and the Mongolian army epidemic prevailed. Wang Jian took advantage of the gap and led his troops to attack his camp at night many times.
In July, Mongo Khan took Ma Zhai Jun's Maanshan as the bridgehead and launched an attack on the fishing city inner city. In this fierce battle, under the command of Wang Jian, Meng was hit by a flying pill and collapsed on the fishing mountain.
After the death of Mongo Khan, Mongo Kublai Khan, who marched into Ezhou, and Xu Liewu, who occupied Damascus and was fighting against the Mamluk army in ancient Egypt, all rushed back to Li to compete for Khan's position, and the Mongolian aristocratic group began a long-term internal war. In this way, Fishing Town erected an immortal monument in the medieval history of the world to "continue Song Zuo, alleviate the disaster of Eurasian war and prevent Mongolia from expanding to Africa"! At that time, Fishing City shocked China and foreign countries with its reputation of "Oriental Mecca City" and "Land where God broke his whip".

Ranked 2, Zhang Xun
Tang people were outstanding defense experts in pacifying Anshi Rebellion. In 757 AD, An Qingxu sent Yin to lead130,000 elite troops south to attack the Jianghuai barrier-Suiyang (now Suiyang District, Shangqiu City, Henan Province). He and thousands of others defended Suiyang, and without any supplies and reinforcements, they killed the enemy120,000, effectively deterring the rebels from invading the south, covering Jianghuai, but they were outnumbered and died heroically. You may ask, although this patrol was heroic, wasn't it ruined in the end? How could I still be on the list? However, when you know how crazy he is guarding the city and do his best, you don't have to doubt that he is second. In the face of hundreds of thousands of people besieging Suiyang, Xun Zhang clearly knew that there was no support, and still encouraged him to persist. From morning till noon, he called more than 20 times, but his rustic attitude remained unchanged. Soldiers can only eat a spoonful of rice every day, and when they are hungry, they have to eat bark and paper. There are only 1000 defenders left, too thin to draw a bow, and there are no reinforcements outside. The rebels dug trenches around the city, built fences outside the trenches and laid siege for a long time. At this time, many defenders in the city died of hunger, and most of them were disabled and tired. At this time, Zhang Xun killed his concubine and cooked it to reward the soldiers. Xu Yuan also killed his slaves to feed the soldiers. The sparrows and mice in the city and the skins on the armored bows and arrows were all found to eat. The rebels learned of Zhang Xun's invitation.
There is no hope of aid, and the siege has intensified. At this time, it is difficult for the city to persist. Guarding city soldiers discuss breakthrough, but Zhang Xun thinks Suiyang is the barrier of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. If it falls, the rebels will go south in a big way, ravage Jianghuai and finally decide to stick to it. Suiyang City was finally breached by the rebels, and Zhang Xun, Xu Yuan and other generals were captured by the rebels. Zhang Xun is fearless and very calm. The rebel commander advised him to surrender, but he did not hesitate, preferring death to surrender. Zhang Xun was 49 when he was killed.

Persistence time: 3 years.

Rank 1, Mao Dezu
General of Southern Song Dynasty. In 422 AD, in 65438+ February, Wei Junbing forced Hulao Pass. Hulao Pass will defend Mao Dezu, and the Northern Wei Army tackled several problems, but they were all beaten back. When the Western Jin Dynasty and others saw that they could not do it, they killed the Yellow River, bypassed Hulao Pass and took Luoyang directly, and Luoyang fell! Hulao Pass was abandoned by the Southern Song Dynasty and became an island. After that, reinforcements can't arrive. The Western Jin Dynasty and GongSunBiao stormed Hulao Pass for more than a few days, but Tuoba Si, the master of the Northern Wei Dynasty, was in a hurry and sent Yecheng troops into Henan to help, which became more and more fierce. Mao Dezu was in a hurry, and he began to dig tunnels. He dug the ground first and dug seven feet in one breath. Then dug outside the city, dug six tunnels, and let 400 strong men go deep behind enemy lines. Sudden attack, killing hundreds of Wei Jun, burning engineering equipment, and then sneaking back into the city. Later, Mao Dezu used a strategy to alienate Jin and Gong. King thinks that he colluded with the enemy and killed him. After killing GongSunBiao, Wei Zhu Tuoba Si was not idle. He personally led the army to Hulao Pass and cut off most of the water sources in Hulao Pass. Mao Dezu thought that killing Gong Sunbiao would reduce the pressure on the enemy, but the result was even heavier. At this time, he gradually realized that this was not a local war, but he was fighting against the military strength of half of the Northern Wei Dynasty by himself. He resolutely made up his mind: a bloody battle to the end. Hulao Pass is short of water, and the soldiers are embarrassed. Tuoba Siqiang attacked for three days. As a result, apart from a large number of deaths, Hulao Pass remained standing. Mao Dezu is in the city, and his life is getting more and more sad. Water, less and less, people, no supplement, the wounded, can only watch death, enemies, more and more, now, Mao Dezu can only rely on one belief to support: kill more. He built three more walls in Hulao Pass as the inner city. Wei Jun attacked the outer city, Dezu led the troops into the inner city, and the three-story inner city was attacked by two floors. Dezu guards the last floor and would rather die than surrender. Mao Dezu resisted hunger and thirst and led a fierce battle. After the battle, the Confederate army was so thirsty that not a drop of water fell into its throat. How dry is it? Injured foot soldiers, incredibly don't bleed! A few days later, another round of onslaught, the pass finally fell and Mao Dezu was captured.
