Introduction---In the siege of Baideng, Liu Bang has become a turtle in the urn. Why did Mao Dundan let him go back to the mountain? The beauty of the peasant uprising broke the water
When the peasant uprising broke out at the end of the Qin Dynasty, why did the northern nomads not Taking the opportunity to attack the Central Plains, why did the Huns in the north emerge to invade the Central Plains after Liu Bang unified the world? Even Liu Bang almost died for this? In the siege of Baideng, why did Liu Bang become a turtle in the urn, and the Huns finally let him go back to the mountain?
The Xiongnu were nomadic people in the north, they were still in the tribal alliance stage. At the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Mao Dundan unified the tribes, and the Huns gradually became stronger. During the turmoil at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Central Plains region was overwhelmed, and Mao Dun Shanyu took the opportunity to regain lost land, posing a threat to the rule of the Han Dynasty in the north. After Liu Bang became emperor, several kings of different surnames were entrusted, including Han Wangxin. Liu Bang originally sealed him in Yangdi, but this place was a strategic point. He was afraid that King Han would threaten him in the future, so he moved King Han to Taiyuan on the pretext of resisting the Huns. But King Han said that Taiyuan was far away from the border and it was not easy to defend against foreigners, so Liu Bang moved him to Mayi, which is today Shuozhou, Shanxi.
The Xiongnu often invaded the northern frontier, but Han Wangxin could not resist, so he had to ask for peace over and over again. Liu Bang was afraid of the collusion between King Han and the Xiongnu, so he wrote and scolded King Han. King Han was afraid of being beheaded by Liu Bang, so he negotiated with the Xiongnu to jointly attack the Han Dynasty. They went south to attack the Taiyuan area and rioted in Datong.
In 200 BC, the Huns led an army of 400,000 people to the south and wanted to capture the Central Plains. Liu Bang led an army of more than 300,000 to fight north. In the beginning, the Han army had repeatedly fought and won. The Huns and King Han's coalition forces fled. The Han army pursued and won again.
Therefore, the Han army was proud and underestimated the enemy. The Han army chased all the way to Jinyang. The Huns garrisoned Daigu, and Liu Bang sent his men to investigate the reality. The cunning Huns deliberately concealed strong soldiers and strong horses, so the Han army saw that the Huns were left with only the old and weak remnants and a few thin horses. The Han army believed that the Huns could easily defeat them. But Liu Jing believed that this was a trap set by the Huns, so this battle could not be continued. Liu Bang was furious, thinking that Liu Jing confused the army, and imprisoned him.
Liu Bang led the cavalry forward. Before reaching the enemy station, the Xiongnu hung in ambush around Baishan Mountain. As soon as the Han army broke in, the Xiongnu immediately besieged him. At this time, the Han army had neither food nor reinforcements. The Xiongnu had surrounded the Han army, and the Han army could not break through, so the two sides fought, but they still couldn't fight. It was a severe winter in the north, and the Han army was not adapted to the cold weather. Many people suffered from frostbite. The two sides held each other for seven days and seven nights.
Seeing that Liu Bang’s counselor Chen Ping offered to Liu Bang, he said that Mao Dunshan was very fond of the concubine he had just acquired, and bribed this. Nianshi, maybe there will be a turning point. So Liu Bang sent his subordinates to offer a lot of jewels to the Lan family. Yan's family told Shan Yu that the reinforcements of the Han army were coming soon, so we still don't want to fight. Just seeing that Han Wangxin's subordinates didn't arrive as promised, so just let it go. In this way, it seems that the Yan family is really a fascination for Mao Dundan, and of course it can be called a lifesaver for Liu Bang.
After experiencing the siege of Baideng, Liu Bang did not dare to despise the Huns anymore, so he adopted the strategy of making peace to appease the Huns temporarily. The Han Dynasty also took this opportunity to develop the economy and improve people's livelihood. After experiencing the reign of Wenjing, it finally reached its peak and conquered the Xiongnu by force.
