Chapter 779 Liu Heitai, King of Eastern Han Dynasty
As for the Silver Halberd Tai Sui Snow King Jia Fu, who ranked first in the series and was unrivaled in the world, in the Zhang version of the Romance of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he can only be described as having ordinary martial arts skills.
Because even if the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai join forces, they can only draw a tie with Big Mac.
On the contrary, any one of the four powerful eight hammers in Zhang's version of Romance of the Eastern Han Dynasty is as powerful as a Big Mac.
In the series of Romance of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it can be said that even the worst hammer general is probably as strong as Wang Xian.
As for the strongest Golden Hammer general, the author directly named him. He is on par with Big Mac. He is probably at the beginning of the peak level, and he still has the potential of an intermediate god of war.
But even with such powerful four people, they only managed to draw with You Liang. In the end, they had to use despicable means to barely defeat him!
This is enough to show how strong You Liang is.
Now, in addition to Zhang Churang, the million-dollar Yellow Turban Army has added another fierce general, but I wonder if the four men he brought will all be implanted in the Yellow Turban.
If this is true, it will really strengthen the Yellow Turban Army.
[Dingdong, the twenty-first check and balance figure, the leader of the peasant uprising army in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties, Liu Heitai, commander: 99, force: 100, intelligence: 85, politics: 78, charm: 89;
Implanted identity: Dou Jiande's good friend, who received support from Dou Jiande when he was young due to his poor family, and began to work hard under his education;
After Liu Heita became successful in his studies, he went to Jizhou to help Dou Jiande and now became his first general;
There are 9 people carrying the figures, namely: Liu Shishan, Zhang Junli, Liu Xidao, Li Quhuo, Xu Shanhu, Liu Junhui, Zhuge Dewei, Hao Xiaode, Liu Ya;]
The previous check and balance figure provided the Yellow Turbans with a high-level God of War, and this time the check and balance figure provided the Yellow Turbans with a silver peak commander.
Liu Heita, if this person is placed in a novel, he is basically a villain, and he is also a villain with little fame, who looks like a supporting character.
All his shining points were taken away by the blackened Su Dingfang, and his status in the novel seemed to be just to set off Su Dingfang.
But Liu Heitai in history was a brave general.
Of course, becoming a famous general is not something you can achieve from birth. You have to work hard to grow up and go through great wars before you can become a famous general.
Take Liu Heitai in front of you as an example.
The "Old Book of Tang" describes Liu Heitai in his early years, which is simply impossible to read, because only fifteen words are used to describe him, that is: "a scoundrel, an alcoholic, a gamer, not in charge of the property, and his father and brother suffered from it."
In modern terms, Liu Heitai in his early years was simply a person with three no's.
But such a figure was a dazzling military genius at the same time.
However, there were too many outstanding figures in the same period, and Liu Heitai was a loser. The inertia of history is to remember the winners.
So this led to Liu Heitai's reputation not being obvious at this time, but when you carefully read the history books, you will find that Liu Heitai's series of achievements were simply incredible.
When Liu Heitai first started his army, he only had a team of more than a hundred people, which looked completely inconspicuous. However, just these people were able to successfully conquer Zhangnan County. No one knows the secret of this.
Upon hearing this, the governor of Beizhou, Dai Yuanxiang, and the governor of Weizhou, Shi Quanwei, immediately joined forces and came to besiege Liu Heitai. As a result, they were severely wounded by Liu Heitai.
Weapons and more than a thousand people were captured.
After Dou Jiande's old troops Fan Yuan and Gao Yaxian heard the news, they also came to join him, and this made Liu Heitai's army now number more than 2,000 people.
The performance of Liu Heitai's first army was extremely astonishing. He occupied Zhangnan County with just over a hundred people, and then relied on the power of one county to defeat the superior governors of Beizhou and Weizhou.
And this is just the beginning of his legend.
In August of the same year, Liu Heitai led his army to capture Liting and successfully killed Wang Xingmin, the general of the Tang Dynasty's garrison.
Liu Heitai's victory triggered Dou Jiande's old troops to betray the Tang Dynasty. For example, Xu Yuanlang, the general manager of Yanzhou, immediately raised troops to respond to Liu Heitai's army.
In September of the same year, Li Shentong, the king of Huainan in the Tang Dynasty, and Luo Yi, the king of Yan, jointly sent troops to attack Liu Heita.
At that time, more than 50,000 people led by Li Shentong and Luo Yi started a fierce battle with Liu Heitai in the south of Raoyang City. It happened to be a snowstorm. Liu Heitai decisively seized the opportunity and defeated Li Shentong with less.
As a result, more than two-thirds of its troops and supplies were lost.
In October of the same year, Liu Heitai attacked the Tang army again, captured Yingzhou (today's Hejian City, Hebei Province), and captured the governor Lu Shirui. Immediately, he captured Guanzhou (today's Dongguang County, Cangzhou City, Hebei Province).
In November of the same year, Liu Heitai led his army to capture Dingzhou (today's Dingzhou, Hebei Province) and captured Li Xuantong, the general manager. Li Xuantong committed suicide soon after.
In December of the same year, Liu Heitai led the army to capture Jizhou (now Hengshui, Hebei Province) and killed the general manager Qu Leng.
Also in this month, Liu Heitai defeated Zuo Wuhou general Li Ji, later Li Shiji, also known as Xu Shiji, in Dingzhou. Li Ji abandoned the city and fled to Mingzhou, losing five thousand soldiers, and finally escaped alone.
Not only that, after Liu Heitai defeated Luo Yi, he also captured the Xue Wanjun brothers alive, which was a great shame and humiliation for the Xue Wanjun brothers.
A few days later, Liu Heitai did not stop, but led Dajun to capture Xingzhou, Weizhou and Shenzhou successively, and killed Pan Daoyi, the general manager of Weizhou.
It can be said that in just five months from when Liu Heitai launched his army in July to the end of the year, he not only regained control of Dou Jiande's old territory, but even increased it.
At the same time, Liu Heitai also made good friends with the Turks in the north, which instantly increased the pressure on the Li Yuan Group in Guanzhong.
Such military capabilities, even if we look at the Sui and Tang Dynasties, are rarely matched by anyone.
Due to a series of victories, Liu Heitai proclaimed himself the Eastern King of the Han Dynasty in the fifth year of Wude, which also led to Li Shimin coming out. After a fierce battle, Li Shimin finally defeated Liu Heitai.
Judging from the final result, Li Shimin won, but judging from the experience, Li Shimin's victory was not smooth sailing and was full of hardships and dangers.
Because Li Shimin didn't pay much attention to Liu Heitai at the beginning, so he misjudged Liu Heitai's ability, causing General Luo Shixin to die in battle.
In the end, even if Li Shimin defeated Liu Heitao, he did not rely on a head-on fight. Instead, he defeated Liu Heitao by cutting off the grain road from behind and using water from the front.
It can be said that the system gave him the commanding value of peak silver, which is absolutely deserved.
