There is such a young general in Chinese history, who first went out on a campaign at the age of 17 and killed more than 2,000 enemy people with 800 people, and won a great victory. At the age of 21, he created a great record of no one before and after the ancients, and sealed the wolf Juxu. Five countries were destroyed in six days, and only four battles were fought in a lifetime, but the fate of two great powers was changed. His existence is a military myth of the Han Dynasty. He is the Great Han God of War Huo Go Disease. But do you know how Huo Wentai swept across the desert at a young age and made great achievements for the Han Dynasty? How brilliant was his life? Today we will talk about this topic.
Huo Fuyi, a native of Pingyang County (present-day Shanxi) in Hedong County, was the nephew of the general Wei Qing. His mother was Wei Zifu's sister Wei Shaofu, and his father was Huo Zhongru, a small official in Pingyang County, and because his father did not dare to admit that he had an affair with the princess's female slave, Huo had to come to this world as an illegitimate son. It is precisely because of the identity of the illegitimate child that Huo Fuyi has suffered from the cold and warmth of the human world since he was a child, and has tasted all kinds of things in the world.
But this painful experience has also cultivated Huo's strong physique and strong will. At the same time, in order not to be bullied by others, he also learned swordplay and horsemanship, and practiced a strong skill. Later, because of wei Zifu's traces. Wei Qing was soon reused by Emperor Wu of Han, and Huo's illness also ushered in a turnaround in his life.
In 123 BC, Huo Fu was not yet 18 years old, out of love for the country, he was already tired of the Xiongnu army, all day and all night destroying their homeland, wanton slaughter, so he followed Wei Qing to attack the Xiongnu. Huo Wentai repeatedly asked his uncle Wei Qing to give him a hundred elite soldiers to personally command the army, Wei Qing had already seen Huo's military ability, but he was worried that this was the first time Huo Went to the battlefield and it would be difficult to break through the enemy army, so he refused Huo's request.
When the Xiongnu attacked the Han dynasty more and more fiercely, Wei Qing, as the commander-in-chief, planned to let Huo Go sick go on the field to try. What is unexpected is that in this war, Huo Fu, who is still just a weak-crowned teenager, shows his extraordinary courage and outstanding talent. With enthusiasm and courage, he led eight hundred elites hundreds of miles away from the army and sneaked up on the enemy army. Eight hundred of them moved fast, biting each other's hearts like wolves. Hundreds of people are uniform, the password is clear, and they will never love war. Retreat when it's time to retreat. This made the Hun army completely unable to keep up with the rhythm and became an extremely passive side.
Huo went ill with his army and gave the enemy several encounters and raids. It takes full advantage of the convenience of fewer people. With 800 people, more than 2,000 Xiongnu were killed and won a complete victory. This was also appreciated by Emperor Wu of Han. Huo was given the title of "Champion Hou", which means "the first person in the army". This lofty honor did not even receive Wei Qing. Later, the emperor built a luxurious mansion for him and asked him to come back for acceptance. At this time, Huo Went ill left a hard sentence: "The Xiongnu have not perished, why should they be home?" This also allows us to see the ambition of the teenager Huo to go to the disease.
Later, in the spring of the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, Huo Wentai was appointed as the general of the Hussars to lead 10,000 people out of Longxi, and this time Huo Wentyi made even greater contributions. After five small northern countries at that time fought for six days, they walked more than 1,000 miles and killed the King of Folding Orchid and the King of Luhu. Captured alive the sons of the Hun Evil King, Xiang Guo, and Du Wei. Kill more than 8,000 enemy troops. The small golden man who sacrificed the Xiongnu King Hutu to the heavens was captured. What does this little golden man do?
When offering sacrifices to the heavens, put this golden man on the ground and sacrifice to the heavens against this golden man, that is to say, the place where the little golden man is placed is the spiritual position of the heavens. Therefore, this battle is even more meritorious. However, this is not the most powerful. There was also a battle that brought Huo's illness to the peak of his life.
The year 119 BC was an unforgettable year for both the Xiongnu and the Han Empire. In this year, Huo Wentai led his army deep into the desert north. Looking for the main force of the Xiongnu to fight a decisive battle, after advancing north for more than 2,000 miles, he met the Xiongnu King Zuoxian unexpectedly. In this battle, not only 70,000 people were killed, but more than 80 people, including the Xiongnu Tuntou King, were captured.
Then it was chased to the Wolf Juxu Mountain. A celestial ceremony was held here. Hodge's disease has also reached the peak of life. This year he was only 21 years old, and at this moment Huo went to the disease to promote the Tianwei of my Han family, and it was even more clear that the humiliation of thousands of Han family boys who had been "peace and kiss" for many years was washed away. Since then, "the Xiongnu have been far away, and there is no royal court in the south of the desert." "Sealing the wolf" has also become the highest honor pursued by future generations of military generals.
However, it is such an invincible god of war, but it is fleeting like a meteor. Two years later, Huo died suddenly at the age of 23. It's a pity. This is probably the so-called jealous talent. In addition, Huo's disease also has a great merit, that is, in the Hexi series of battles, he completely opened up Hexi, allowing the Han Dynasty to control the Hexi Corridor, and from then on, the Hexi Corridor became part of the Central Plains. Effectively reduce the threat of northern nomads for the Central Plains countries. As well as foreign exchanges, they have made outstanding contributions.
Not only that, but Huo's disease also dealt a devastating blow to the Huns. Let the Xiongnu also leave behind "the Qilian Mountains that have lost me, so that my six animals will not rest; Lose me a mountain, make my married wife colorless" such a heartbreaking song. Huo went to fame at a young age and made great achievements for the Han Dynasty, which was all admirable.
