Zhang Xun s role in the Anshi Rebellion ?

Zhang Xun's main role in the Anshi Rebellion was to guard Suiyang, the barrier of Jianghuai, and it was precisely because Zhang Xun defended Suiyang for nearly a year that this ensured that the Jiangnan region would avoid the war and preserved the vitality for the later recovery of the Tang Dynasty! A few days after the city of Suiyang was broken and Zhang Xun was killed, the Tang reinforcements finally arrived and broke the Linghu tide, thus completely removing the threat of the Anshi rebels to Jiangnan and ensuring the delivery of materials from the Jianghuai region to the main force of the Tang army.

During the period of Tang Gaozong, there was an unprecedented period of prosperity in the society at that time, both the economy and the country's strength reached a new height, all the people lived a life of abundant food and clothing, and the whole society was a thriving scene.

In the face of such a harmonious and prosperous society, there began to be some changes here in Tang Xuanzong, when Tang Xuanzong was young, he was also a qualified king, but the old Xuanzong became greedy for pleasure, which also gave An Lushan an opportunity, in 755, An Lushan and Shi Siming betrayed the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and set off a rebellion, which was known as the Anshi Rebellion.

And Zhang Xun was a small leader of the rebellion at that time, according to legend, he once ate people, we can't judge the truth of this thing now, but at that time there was a large amount of grain in Juyang but was transported away by Li Ju, and the funny thing is that this half of the grain was received by the rebels as enemy rations. At that time, in the vicinity of Zhang Xun, only the Tang army made Helan still have food in his hands, but Zhang Xun and he were opponents, and it was impossible to open his mouth to borrow food, plus Zhang Xun used his troops to win many battles, and the generals of the Tang Army were also very jealous of him, and they wished that he had no food and withdrew his troops. Therefore, it is also possible that the saying about Zhang Xun's cannibalism was spread by the generals of the Tang Army to confuse those ordinary people who did not know the truth and make them afraid of Zhang Xun, which is what we now call people's tactics.

Zhang Xun's prestige at that time was extremely high, so it is understandable that the generals of the Tang Army tried every means to discredit him, and there was a very ironic scene at that time, that is, the crown prince Li Heng, that is, Tang Suzong, actually hoped that Zhang Xun's defense of Juyang would be breached, so that the entire Jiangnan could be plunged into war. The reason is simply that the one who occupied the Jiangnan area at that time happened to be his sibling, and this brother was just waiting and watching during the previous Central Plains War, and it was obvious that he had the intention of self-reliance.

So later, after Zhang Xun was killed, the various factions fought each other, and Tang Suzong also played a disgraceful role in this incident, so he chose to make the matter of the mud a big thing and a small matter. From this, we can also see that Zhang Xun ate 30,000 people to defend a city, which may have been made up.

He is a brutal person, and this kind of cannibalism has gone beyond the bottom line of being a human being, and it is completely the embodiment of cruelty and ruthlessness.

This character is a particularly good historical figure. He is also particularly famous in history, and he is a super kind person.

Very scary, a relatively controversial figure, this incident left a very deep impression on people, and it is a disgraceful thing.

In order to save a country from a crisis, Zhang Xun really killed his wife and concubines and ordinary people to serve as military rations. At that time, when some people were about to break through the city, some of them chose to surrender, but Zhang Xun was a relatively backbone person, he did not choose to surrender, and then he led a lot of soldiers and chose to fight to the death with those people, hoping that they could defeat the other party's enemies by their own strength.

In fact, he also made such a decision for the survival of their country at that time. The most important thing for the soldiers to be well fed is to have enough to fight when they go to war. At that time, because they were an improvised army, and many people chose to surrender at that time, they did not have food to support them.

At this time, Zhang Xun was very embarrassed, he didn't know how to go to the ** to find food, and there were many cities around them, but these people would not give them food, because they had already surrendered to the enemy, if they gave it to them, they would have betrayed the enemy, even if they gave them food, they would not have enough for them to eat, because after all, they had to fight, and the food consumed must be a lot. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xun didn't know what to do, so at this time he came up with a way, which was to contribute his wives and concubines as food for their soldiers.

In fact, he is a very selfless person, and he has contributed all his wives and concubines. At that time, there was no choice to contribute to these ordinary people, but only to contribute their wives and concubines first, and then choose to contribute to those ordinary people if they were not enough in advance.

<> "Anshi Rebellion: Zhang Xun chewed his teeth and killed his concubine from the perspective of human nature, not a hero.

Zhang Xun Temple is located outside the south gate of the ancient city of Shangqiu, Henan, and is built to commemorate Zhang Xun, Xu Yuan and others who were martyred to defend Suiyang in the "Anshi Rebellion". During the Anshi Rebellion, the rebel generals besieged Suiyang, and Zhang Xun led the soldiers to defend Suiyang, and fought fiercely with the rebels, causing heavy losses to the enemy. Unfortunately, in the end, due to the lack of backup, the city was broken and martyred, and he made immortal contributions to quelling the rebellion and protecting the people of Jianghuai and Limin.

There is a part of our body that is second only to diamond in hardness, and that is the enamel that covers the outside of the teeth, which is not thick, but very hard, and is the hardest tissue in the human body. As the saying goes, "bite your teeth and swallow blood", if a person does not have a deep hatred, it is not a simple matter to bite his teeth apart.

During the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, An Lushan was arrogant, and the rebels burned, killed and looted wherever they went. An Qingxu, the son of An Lushan, sent the general Yin Ziqi to lead an army of 100,000 to attack Suiyang. At that time, it was Zhang Xun in the imperial history who was guarding the old Suiyang, and he saw that the enemy army was fierce, so he had to hold on to the city.

When commanding the battle, Zhang Xun was impassioned, shouting slogans to boost morale, but because he was too angry, the corners of his eyes were cracked and bleeding, and his teeth were clenched loudly, and he was bitten a lot.

Due to the lack of foreign aid, Zhang Xun's army was besieged by the rebels for a long time, the food and grass were cut off, and the soldiers starved to death a lot, and they couldn't hold it anymore.

At this time, Zhang Xun introduced his own concubine and said to the soldiers: "We have been short of food for a long time, but our loyalty has not decreased at all, I regret that I can't cut off my own flesh for everyone to eat, is it reluctant to sit and watch the soldiers starve?" ”

The soldiers in the audience blew up all of a sudden: "You can't kill it!" "If we kill us, we won't eat it!" ”

In history, the use of soldiers like gods and the most controversial is none other than Zhang Xun. For a long time, the controversy over Zhang Xun has never stopped, and the focus of the controversy has mainly focused on two aspects, some people appreciate him for his great contributions to the Anshi Rebellion, and others spurn him because of the unethical methods he used in the process of resisting the enemy. Because of this, although Zhang Xun has made meritorious contributions in resisting the enemy, he has been criticized by people because of his cannibalism in the process of resisting the enemy.

1. Helpless MoveZhang Xun was very smart when he was young, and he was familiar with the art of war books, and he was very good at arranging troops, so when the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Zhang Xun played a great role as a general. In terms of military talent, Zhang Xun is at least a figure in history who erects a monument and enshrines a god. In the Battle of Suiyang, only 6,000 soldiers defeated tens of thousands of enemy troops, and achieved a brilliant record of destroying 120,000 enemies.

But it was precisely this battle that made Zhang Xun nailed to the pillar of shame. At that time, Zhang Xun and his army were trapped in Suiyang City, and although their personal safety was guaranteed, food was very scarce in the city at that time, because many people died of hunger. In the absence of food supplies and foreign enemies were eyeing him, Zhang Xun was very troubled.

In desperation, Zhang Xun could only choose to sacrifice those old and weak women and children, and use their lives to support the lives of those soldiers. Although they ate live people, these soldiers finally filled their stomachs, and because of these sacrifices, these soldiers persevered and fought to the death with foreign enemies.

Second, the point of no return In fact, Zhang Xun's story perfectly interprets what it means to "can't have both fish and bear's paws", after all, in that case, if you want to keep the city, you have to make a difficult choice. Zhang Xun knew that if Suiyang was lost, the important town of Jianghuai behind him would inevitably fall into the hands of the rebels, which was the hope and lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty. Although sticking to it is a road of no return, it is not the duty of a soldier to be loyal to his duties and serve the country.

It is precisely because Zhang Xun sacrificed these old and weak that this tragic way of exchanging lives for lives has been spurned by some people, and in their eyes, Zhang Xun is ruthless. Although Zhang Xun's original idea was to defend the motherland for the sake of national righteousness, everyone was still angry about him letting soldiers eat people, so much so that until now there are still people criticizing Zhang Xun's actions

Although he made meritorious contributions to resisting the enemy in the Anshi Rebellion, he also made great mistakes. The army led by Zhang Xun encountered a shortage of food and grass in the Battle of Suiyang, and could not be rescued by friendly forces. At a critical moment of survival, one of Zhang Xun's decisions made him commit an unforgivable mistake.

That's cannibalism. Whatever the reason, such behavior is sad and unforgivable.

Very wronged, I didn't participate too much at the time, and I only involved some things in this regard, but I didn't expect to be infamy, and it was very wronged.

Zhang Xun was very wronged, because Zhang Xun expressed his loyalty in the Anshi Rebellion, and he also fought against the enemy bravely, but in the end, he was not understood by the people and was infamy.

is very wronged, because he did something beneficial to the country, but he did not win everyone's praise, but he was infamy, so he was very wronged.

There is no way to judge this, he sacrificed the old and weak to keep his own life and the lives of his soldiers, and bought time for the country, and true loyalty and righteousness are difficult to achieve.

is very wronged, because he is a very talented person, and he has made meritorious contributions to the enemy, in order to survive, he ended up with a bad reputation.

I don't think he was wronged, because this was the choice of history, and although he tried to kill the enemy, it still had no effect in the end.

Zhang Xun is the devil and is finally punished.

Zhang Xun held Suiyang for ten months, this battle was crucial to the Anshi Rebellion, from the overall point of view Zhang Xun is a hero, but from a moral point of view, his behavior of cannibalism in order to defend the city is a stain on his life.

Zhang Xun made this move without food, grass and no reinforcements, and although he succeeded in the end, his cruelty and immoral behavior was still worthy of condemnation, Zhang Xun did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of the people for the sake of war, and violated Confucian morality and human morality.

Judging from a historical point of view, Zhang Xun is a heroic figure, in the Battle of Suiyang, Zhang Xun was able to fight with less than 10,000 troops against more than 100,000 enemy troops, and held on for ten months, which can really be described as Zhang Xun's great achievements.
