Pang Xun

(? -869) The leader of Xuzhou garrison uprising in the late Tang Dynasty. In the third year of Xian Tong (862), Nanzhao fell (now the northwest of Hanoi, Vietnam), and Tang raised Xu Sibing for 3,000 yuan to help Annan, among whom 800 people were stationed in Guangxi (now Guilin, Guangxi). Pang Xun is the grain officer of Guangxi Garrison.

Originally, the garrison should be changed every three years, but by July of the ninth year in Xian Tong, the garrison had been far away for six years. The observation of Tang Xusi (now Xuzhou, Jiangsu) made Cui Yanzeng want to garrison for another year. The defenders were resentful. The defenders, such as Ji Xu, Sail Zhao and Wang Youcheng, killed the commander-in-chief Wang Zhongfu, promoted Pang Xun to be the general, launched an uprising and returned to the north on their own. 10, captured Suzhou (now north of Suzhou, Anhui Province) and Xuzhou (now Jiangsu Province), and captured Cui Yanzeng alive. Pang Xun opened the treasury to recruit soldiers, and farmers responded one after another. "The father sent his son, and his wife encouraged him." To recruit them into the army, more than ten thousand people were recruited. At that time, a small number of peasant insurgents from nearby States all joined the army, and the suburbs of Xuzhou were crowded with Guo. After Li Yuan stayed in Pang Xun and Xu Erzhou, he sent people to attack Sizhou (now southeast of Sihong, Jiangsu) and Haozhou (now Fengyang East, Anhui). In December, the insurgents captured Douliangcheng (now Xuyi North, Jiangsu Province) on the other side of Sizhou, and captured more than 5,000 loyalists. At this time, the rebel army occupied Huaikou, cut off the Jianghuai waterway, and seriously threatened Chang 'an.

Paikang, Wang Yanquan, Dai and other soldiers, as well as Sha Tuo, Tu and other ethnic soldiers, a total of 200,000 people suppressed. Pang Xun mistakenly followed the main force south, ignoring the northern army; Moreover, "claiming that there is no reason in the world" breeds pride; In addition, he repeatedly asked the Tang dynasty for festivals and ceremonies, and he fantasized that he would stop fighting; Later, Zhang, the commander-in-chief of Suzhou, defected to the Tang Dynasty. In this case, the rebels lost their fighters and were defeated by victory, and the situation became more and more unfavorable. Xian Tong ten years in September, Pang Xun left Xuzhou, led the army to the western expedition. After Tang Jun got Xuzhou, he was hunted by 80,000 people. Pang Xun was defeated by Kang and died heroically. In October, the Ministry of Pang Xun Wu Jiong died in Haozhou, and the uprising finally failed.
