between the end of the <a href="/wiki/Sui_dynasty" title="Sui dynasty">Sui dynasty</a> and the start of the <a href="/wiki/Tang_dynasty" title="Tang dynasty">Tang dynasty</a>. The Sui dynasty's territories were carved into a handful of short-lived states by its officials, generals, and agrarian rebel leaders. A process of elimination and annexation followed that ultimately culminated in the consolidation of the Tang dynasty by the former Sui general <a href="/wiki/Emperor_Gaozu_of_Tang" title="Emperor Gaozu of Tang">Li Yuan</a>.

There was one brief internal conflict between <a href="/wiki/Emperor_Yang_of_Sui" title="Emperor Yang of Sui">Emperor Yang of Sui</a>, who became emperor in 604, and his brother <a href="/wiki/Yang_Liang" title="Yang Liang">Yang Liang</a> the Prince of Han, who had not seen war. When Goguryeo's king <a href="/wiki/Yeong-yang_of_Goguryeo" class="mw-redirect" title="Yeong-yang of Goguryeo">Yeongyang</a> refused to pay homage to Emperor Yang in 610, Emperor Yang decided to plan a campaign to conquer it, and both he and the people believed that the conquest would be easy. </p><p>However, staging the attack on Goguryeo took much human and other tolls. The building of a fleet and the shipping of food and other supplies to the base of operations, <a href="/wiki/Zhuo_Commandery" title="Zhuo Commandery">Zhuo Commandery</a> (涿郡, roughly modern <a href="/wiki/Beijing" title="Beijing">Beijing</a>) caused major disruptions in the farming cycle and massive deaths among those conscripted to ship the supplies to Zhuo Commandery. In response, in 611, in northern China, those who refused to be conscripted began to revolt as agrarian rebels, led by leaders such as Wang Bo (王薄) and Liu Badao (劉霸道). While Emperor Yang initially did not consider these rebels serious threats, the local governmental militias were unable to quell them. </p> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg/391px-Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg.png" decoding="async" width="391" height="272" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg/587px-Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg/782px-Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang_family_tree.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="833" data-file-height="579" /></a><figcaption>Family tree of the transition from Sui to Tang</figcaption></figure> <p>Despite this, Emperor Yang launched his first campaign against Goguryeo in 612, crossing the <a href="/wiki/Liao_River" title="Liao River">Liao River</a> into Goguryeo territory in spring 612. Emperor Yang personally led part of the army to put the important city Liaodong (遼東, in modern <a href="/wiki/Liaoyang" title="Liaoyang">Liaoyang</a>, <a href="/wiki/Liaoning" title="Liaoning">Liaoning</a>) under siege, while he sent the <a href="/wiki/Xianbei" title="Xianbei">Xianbei</a> generals <a href="/wiki/Yuwen_Shu" title="Yuwen Shu">Yuwen Shu</a> and Yu Zhongwen (于仲文) to lead the rest of the army deep into Goguryeo territory, heading toward the Goguryeo capital <a href="/wiki/Pyongyang" title="Pyongyang">Pyongyang</a>, joined by the fleet commanded by the southern Chinese general <a href="/wiki/Lai_Hu%27er" title="Lai Hu'er">Lai Hu'er</a>. Emperor Yang, however, was never able to capture Liaodong, while <a href="/wiki/Yuwen" title="Yuwen">Yuwen</a> and Yu, advancing nearly to Pyongyang, were defeated by the Goguryeo general <a href="/wiki/Eulji_Mundeok" title="Eulji Mundeok">Eulji Mundeok</a> and forced to withdraw with heavy losses. By fall 612, Emperor Yang was forced to terminate the campaign and withdraw as well, with only minor territorial gains. About 300,000 men had been lost in the campaign. </p><p>Undeterred, Emperor Yang launched a second campaign against Goguryeo in 613, even though the agrarian rebellions were becoming more numerous and serious. He again headed for Liaodong himself and put it under siege, while sending Yuwen Shu with another general <a href="/wiki/Yang_Yichen_(Sui_dynasty)" title="Yang Yichen (Sui dynasty)">Yang Yichen</a> toward Pyongyang. While he was sieging Liaodong, the northern Chinese general <a href="/wiki/Yang_Xuangan" title="Yang Xuangan">Yang Xuangan</a>, in charge of logistics near the Sui eastern capital <a href="/wiki/Luoyang" title="Luoyang">Luoyang</a>, rebelled and attacked Luoyang. When Emperor Yang heard the news, he withdrew his forces and sent Yuwen and <a href="/wiki/Qutu_Tong" title="Qutu Tong">Qutu Tong</a> back to Luoyang ahead of himself, and Yuwen and Qutu joined with Fan Zigai (樊子蓋) and Wei Wensheng (衛文昇), the commanders of forces that Emperor Yang had left at Luoyang and <a href="/wiki/Chang%27an" title="Chang'an">Chang'an</a> respectively, to defeat <a href="/wiki/Yang_Xuangan" title="Yang Xuangan">Yang Xuangan</a>. Emperor Yang carried out heavy-handed reprisals against actual or perceived adherents of Yang Xuangan, but such actions did not deter further rebellions. </p><p>Despite this, Emperor Yang launched a third campaign against Goguryeo in 614. As Lai Hu'er reached the <a href="/wiki/Yalu_River" title="Yalu River">Yalu River</a>, however, Goguryeo submitted, sending Yang Xuangan's Turkic confederate Husi Zheng (斛斯政), who had fled to Goguryeo, back to Sui as a sign of submission. Emperor Yang terminated the campaign, but when he again summoned Yeongyang to pay homage to him, Yeongyang ignored his summons. Emperor Yang began to plan a fourth campaign, which, however, he was never able to launch. </p><p>Meanwhile, in the fall of 615, while Emperor Yang and <a href="/wiki/Empress_Xiao_(Sui_dynasty)" title="Empress Xiao (Sui dynasty)">Empress Xiao</a> were conducting a tour of the northern frontier, Qimin Khan's son and successor <a href="/wiki/Shibi_Khan" title="Shibi Khan">Shibi Khan</a> launched a surprise attack against <a href="/wiki/Yanmen_Commandery" title="Yanmen Commandery">Yanmen Commandery</a> as a reprisal for the emperor's proposal to give a princess to his brother and for the treacherous murder of one of his close advisors. The khan's wife Princess Yicheng, a relative of the emperor who had been personally honored by the empress during an earlier visit, sent them a secret warning about the Turkic attack.

Meanwhile, however, the empress's brother <a href="/wiki/Xiao_Yu" title="Xiao Yu">Xiao Yu</a> had gotten the emperor to seek further assistance from Princess Yicheng, who was administering military affairs at home in her husband's absence. She sent a false report to the khan that a northern attack had been launched against the khaganate; between this report and others announcing the Chinese reinforcements, Shibi Khan lifted the siege and returned north.

Tang, however, was facing a threat on a different front, as <a href="/wiki/Liu_Wuzhou" title="Liu Wuzhou">Liu Wuzhou</a> made a major attack south, taking over much of modern Shanxi, which Tang had controlled, and appearing poised to further attack Tang's capital Chang'an. Around the same time, the lower <a href="/wiki/Yangtze" title="Yangtze">Yangtze</a> region, which had been in a state of confusion ever since Emperor Yang's death, was coalescing around three different competing figures—the former Sui official <a href="/wiki/Shen_Faxing" title="Shen Faxing">Shen Faxing</a>, who declared himself the Prince of Liang and controlled much of the territory south of the Yangtze; the rebel leader <a href="/wiki/Li_Zitong" title="Li Zitong">Li Zitong</a>, who controlled Jiangdu and the surrounding regions, declaring himself the Emperor of Wu; and <a href="/wiki/Du_Fuwei" title="Du Fuwei">Du Fuwei</a>, who submitted to Tang and was created the Prince of Wu. </p><p>In late 619, Tang forces, commanded by <a href="/wiki/Li_Shimin" class="mw-redirect" title="Li Shimin">Li Shimin</a>, began a counterattack against Liu Wuzhou. By summer 620, Li Shimin had defeated Liu, who abandoned his territory and fled to Eastern Göktürk. His Dingyang state was integrated into Tang. </p><p>After defeating Dingyang, Li Shimin had his sights set on Zheng. He advanced to the Zheng capital Luoyang and put it under siege. Many Zheng cities surrendered to Tang, forcing <a href="/wiki/Wang_Shichong" title="Wang Shichong">Wang Shichong</a> to seek aid from Dou Jiande's Xia state. Dou, reasoning that if Tang destroyed Zheng, his own Xia would be cornered, agreed, and he advanced south toward Luoyang, seeking to lift the siege. Around the same time, <a href="/wiki/Du_Fuwei" title="Du Fuwei">Du Fuwei</a> (now using the name Li Fuwei, having been granted the imperial surname of Li by Emperor Gaozu) defeated Li Zitong, who in turn defeated Shen, forcing him to commit suicide. Li Zitong now had Shen's former territory, while Li Zitong's former territory was held by Li Fuwei in Tang's name. </p><p>In spring 621, with Dou approaching, Li Shimin advanced east to the important <a href="/wiki/Hulao_Pass" title="Hulao Pass">Hulao Pass</a> and held position there. When Dou engaged him, he <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Hulao" title="Battle of Hulao">defeated Dou and captured him</a>. In fear, Wang surrendered. Emperor Gaozu executed Dou while exiling Wang (although Wang was subsequently killed by the Tang general <a href="/wiki/Dugu_(surname)" title="Dugu (surname)">Dugu</a> Xiude (獨孤修德), whose father had been executed by Wang). Wang's Zheng state and Dou's Xia state were annexed by Tang, although former Xia territory soon rose under the leadership of Dou's general <a href="/wiki/Liu_Heita" title="Liu Heita">Liu Heita</a>, who declared himself the Prince of Handong, and modern <a href="/wiki/Shandong" title="Shandong">Shandong</a>, which had been controlled by the agrarian leader <a href="/wiki/Xu_Yuanlang" title="Xu Yuanlang">Xu Yuanlang</a> but had successively submitted to Zheng and then to Tang, rose as well under Xu, who declared himself the Prince of Lu. </p><p>Also in 621, Emperor Gaozu's nephew <a href="/wiki/Li_Xiaogong" title="Li Xiaogong">Li Xiaogong</a> the Prince of Zhao Commandery attacked <a href="/wiki/Xiao_Xian" title="Xiao Xian">Xiao Xian</a>'s Liang state in southern China, putting the Liang capital <a href="/wiki/Jiangling_County" title="Jiangling County">Jiangling</a> under siege. Xiao, not realizing that relief forces were approaching, surrendered, and most of his state was annexed by Tang, while some of Xiao's army submitted to <a href="/wiki/Lin_Shihong" title="Lin Shihong">Lin Shihong</a>. Around the same time, Li Fuwei defeated Li Zitong, forcing Li Zitong's surrender, and Li Zitong's Wu state was also annexed by Tang. </p><p>In spring 622, Li Shimin defeated Liu Heita, forcing Liu to flee to the Eastern Göktürks, but Liu returned later that year with Eastern Göktürk aid, reoccupying the former Xia territory. In winter 622, Li Shimin's older brother <a href="/wiki/Li_Jiancheng" title="Li Jiancheng">Li Jiancheng</a> the <a href="/wiki/Crown_Prince" class="mw-redirect" title="Crown Prince">Crown Prince</a> defeated Liu again, and in spring 623, Liu, in flight, was betrayed by his official <a href="/wiki/Zhuge" title="Zhuge">Zhuge</a> Dewei (諸葛德威) and executed by Li Jiancheng. Earlier, Lin Shihong had died, and his Chu state dissipated, with the cities gradually submitting to Tang, and soon after Liu's death, Xu, who had repeatedly been defeated by Tang forces, was also killed in flight. By this point, other than Liang Shidu and <a href="/wiki/Gao_Kaidao" title="Gao Kaidao">Gao Kaidao</a> in the extreme north, China was largely reunited, if somewhat nominally, under Tang rule. </p><p>In fall 623, however, with Li Fuwei at Chang'an, Li Fuwei's lieutenant <a href="/wiki/Fu_Gongshi" title="Fu Gongshi">Fu Gongshi</a> rebelled at Danyang, declaring himself the Emperor of Song and controlling the territory formerly under Li Fuwei's control. By 624, <a href="/wiki/Li_Xiaogong" title="Li Xiaogong">Li Xiaogong</a> had defeated and killed Fu, reintegrating Song territory into Tang, while Gao, faced with a coup led by his subordinate Zhang Jinshu (張金樹), committed suicide, and his Yan state was also integrated into Tang. </p><p>Meanwhile, Liang Shidu, protected by Eastern Göktürk aid, was holding up against Tang attacks, and Tang itself was continually harassed by Eastern Göktürk raids. After <a href="/wiki/Li_Shimin" class="mw-redirect" title="Li Shimin">Li Shimin</a> ambushed and killed <a href="/wiki/Li_Jiancheng" title="Li Jiancheng">Li Jiancheng</a> and another brother, <a href="/wiki/Li_Yuanji" title="Li Yuanji">Li Yuanji</a> the Prince of Qi in 626 and effectively forced Emperor Gaozu to yield the throne to him (as Emperor Taizong), however, Tang began to turn the situation around. By 628, with Eastern Göktürk in internal turmoil due to disagreements between the <a href="/wiki/Jiali_Khan" class="mw-redirect" title="Jiali Khan">Jiali Khan</a> Ashina Duobi (Ashina Duojishi's younger brother) and the subordinate Tuli Khan, Ashina Shibobi (阿史那什鉢苾, Ashina Duojishi's son), it was no longer able to protect Liang Shidu, and under Tang siege, Liang Shidu's cousin Liang Luoren (梁洛仁) killed Liang Shidu and surrendered. China was now under the rule of Emperor Taizong. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: See also"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Transition_from_Ming_to_Qing" title="Transition from Ming to Qing">Transition from Ming to Qing</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Citations">Citations</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Transition_from_Sui_to_Tang&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Citations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist reflist-columns references-column-width" style="column-width: 30em;"> <ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite id="CITEREFMartin_W._Huang2006" class="citation book cs1">Martin W.
