Junchen

Having ascended the throne, Junchen received from Han Wen-di an expression of peace and kinship. But in 158 BC. e. Junchen invaded the areas of Shangjun (in Shanxi ) and Yunzhong (in Ordos), the Huns were attacked by two armies of 30,000 soldiers each. The Huns were robbed and taken prisoners, not stopping for a long time. The Chinese court sent three armies to Beidi ( Hebei ), to Gauzhu, to Zhao near the Feikukou River, and three other generals were assigned to guard Chang'an : from the west to Chile, to Jimen at Weihe and to Bashan.

The Huns invaded the Dai ( Zhili ) area and approached the Goochu mountain, but now the Chinese army was ready and through the signal lights the information about the raid reached Chang'an. The Huns managed to retreat while the Chinese army gathered for war. Han Wen-di died in 157 and Han Jing-di ascended the throne in 156.

In 156, Junchen received an ambassador from the prince of Zhao Province (in Zhili ) with a proposal for surrender. In 154, the princes of the provinces of Wu and Chu rebelled and decided to unite with Zhao and go to the Huns. The emperor sent troops to capture Zhao, the rebellion of the princes crushed. After that, Junchen decided to make peace with Han Jing-di. In 152, Junchen married the Chinese princess and the Huns received border trading rights with the Chinese. Despite the minor robberies of the Huns, peace was between the states.

In 140, the great emperor of China was the great Liu Zhi - Han Wu-di (Emperor Warrior). In 140, he reaffirmed peace and kinship with Juncheng, sent gifts and permitted border bargaining. Over time, Junchen infused the charm of Chinese culture and moved his stake closer to the Great Wall .

In 138 BC e. The Shan Embassy, Zhang Qian , was sent to Yuezhi. Shanuy detained the embassy for 10 years, on the pretext that the Han would not have missed the Hunnu embassy in Yue .

The Chinese government decided to trap the shanyu. Not Yi, a resident of Mai (in Shanxi), on behalf of the government, began to illegally trade with the Huns and promised the shanyu to open the gates of Mai. Junchen believed and in 133 with 100,000 warriors crossed the border at Wuzhou. Mai hid 300,000 Chinese army. Minister ( Yu-shi Da-fu ) Han Ango was the commander of the vanguard, 4 more armies stood behind. Junchen began to suspect something was wrong when he saw a lot of cattle and there were no shepherds anywhere. Junchen decided to attack the border post. During the attack, Yushi (an officer of the border troops) was captured and he opened up an ambush plan to Juncheng. Junchen returned to the steppe and awarded the captive officer the title of Heavenly Prince.

Realizing that the shanyu had left, the Chinese commander Wang Kui committed suicide (or was executed), since he was responsible for the operation. The Huns began to violently attack the border, although trade in the border markets did not stop. In 129 4 Chinese armies, 10,000 cavalry in each were supposed to attack the border markets. General Wei Qing stepped out from Shangu to Zhili and, having reached Chunchna, captured 700 Huns. Gunsun He came out of Yunzhong, did not capture anyone. Gongsun Ao left Daijun, the Huns defeated him, out of 10,000 left 3,000. Li Gaun left Yanmen, the Huns captured him. He later fled, but in China he was deprived of ranks, as was Gunsun Ao. This year, the Huns attacked the border, attacked Yuyang. Han Ango was sent there to defend Yuyang.

In 128, Junchen ordered 20,000 horsemen to attack Liaosi . The governor was killed, 2,000 people were captured. 1,000 people were captured by the Huns in Yaymyn. Wu-di ordered Wei Qing to march from Yanmen with 30,000 cavalry, and Liu Xi from Daijun. In 127 they attacked the Huns and captured several thousand people. Wei Qing made the transition from Yunzhong west to Longsi. He attacked the allied Huns princes Loufan and Bayan in Ordos , captured several thousand people, stole a million heads of cattle. In 126 in Ordos, the city of Shofan was built and a section of the ancient border was restored, but the Huns had to give the Jiaoyang region in Doubi to Sanga. Junchen died in 126; Izhishe himself declared himself a shanyu.
