First, joining the army is to honor our ancestors.
Xue's real name is and the word is. Born in the late Sui Dynasty, his ancestors had always been an official, and the Xue family in Hedong was also a famous family at that time. But Xue's father died early, so his family background also declined.
Comrade Xiao Xue never enjoyed the glory of his ancestors. In order to make a living, he began to repair the land and became an out-and-out farmer. In a blink of an eye, I am thirty years old and my life is still tight. He joined the army because of his wife Liu's suggestion.
It is said that he will move his ancestral grave this year, probably in the hope of changing the pattern of geomantic omen and reversing Gankun. But this was stopped by his wife. Liu said to him: Now the emperor is personally recruiting Liaodong, why don't you join the army and do something? When you succeed, you will move to your ancestral grave, and your ancestors will feel honored.
When Xue heard this, it was true, so he went to this famous soldier in the Tang Dynasty to recruit soldiers and came to Liaodong. A great general in history, but in the romance of later generations, he became a villain and treacherous court official who framed Xue. However, in the real history, he did not make things difficult for Xue, and there was a normal relationship between them.
In 645 AD, Li Shimin personally signed Koguryo. Encouraged by his wife, Xue joined the army with the hope of changing his fate and became an ordinary soldier in Tang Jun. The 30-year-old soldier won two wars in the Liaodong Campaign and turned over completely, realizing his dream from a soldier to a general.
Second, draw a white robe with a halberd.
When Tang Jun attacked Andi City, Liu Junqiong, commander-in-chief of Tang Jun, was besieged by Koguryo troops at that time, and there was no way to go in a critical moment. Xue stepped forward to seize the head of a general in Koguryo and hung it on his horse's head. Such actions made Goguryeo's soldiers tremble with fear, weakened the enemy's morale, and had to retreat at the urging of Tang Jun, and Liu Junqiong was rescued.
An ordinary soldier scared off the enemy on the battlefield and saved the life of an officer. What a wonderful thing! Through this battle, Xue's reputation spread throughout the military camps in the Tang Dynasty. However, this does not satisfy Xue. What he wants is to make contributions to his career and win glory for his ancestors. He is still waiting for a bigger opportunity to show his strength.
Three months later, Xue's opportunity came. At that time, Goguryeo assembled 250,000 troops against Tang Jun, and Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, as the supreme commander, personally stood on a high place to direct the battle. Xue once again showed his wisdom and ferocity.
Gui Ren is brave and good at fighting, and wants to make great contributions, but he is dressed in different colors, dressed in white, holding a halberd, bowing his back and shouting, taking the lead, going forward bravely, and the thief is invincible. When the army rode on it, the thief was greatly defeated. Old Tang Book ~ Xue Chuan
Watching the battle from a height, I suddenly saw a young man in white, with a unique figure, rushing out of Tang Jun. He shouted and rushed to kill, looking like a mountain soldier from a distance. In addition to his unique appearance, this young man is also particularly fierce in killing the enemy. Goguryeo's soldiers were stabbed to death by his painting halberd, and the enemy was in chaos. Tang Jun's main force immediately followed the enemy, and Koguryo's army soon broke away. This unusual white-robed teenager is Xue, whose modeling and heroic attitude of killing the enemy have long been clearly seen. I didn't expect to have such a powerful role in my own army, so I must be promoted and reused.
