Nguyen Hue of the Tay Son Dynasty of Vietnam, also known as Nguyen Van Hue, was one of the three Nguyen brothers of the Tay Son Uprising and the most talented of the three Nguyen brothers. The series of military victories achieved by the www.biquge.info Tay Son dynasty were almost all related to Nguyen Hue, who had previously defeated the forces of the old Nguyen and eliminated the Truong regime in the north.

Due to the Tang Dynasty's meddling in Southeast Asian affairs, and even entering Siam after Zheng Xin's death, and seizing Zhenla, the situation in Southeast Asia has undergone a lot of changes. Initially, Datang supported Ruan Phuc Anh in the south, but later Ruan Phuc Anh's policies prevented Datang from controlling Chenla and other regions, so Datang terminated its support for Ruan Phuc Anh. However, even so, Nguyen Phuc Anh had obtained a large number of new weapons and warships before, and he was able to resist the Xishan Dynasty in the Jiading area. The two sides have won and lost each other, and no one can help the other.

Until 1785, Nguyen Huy set up an ambush in the Battle of Leaching and Toumi, and lured down Nguyen Phuc Anh's generals, defeating Nguyen Phuc Anh, who had to flee to Siam under the rule of the Tang Dynasty when he ran out of ammunition and food, begging the Tang people to support him again and recover Jiading. However, the Tang side lacked a good impression of Nguyen Phuc Anh, and also had other arrangements for Annan, leaving only Nguyen Phuc Anh in Bangkok, and did not give him any support.

Later, Nguyen Huy was ordered by Nguyen Yue to march north to capture the city of Phu Xuan controlled by the Zheng regime, and surrendered the general Nguyen Thanh Quang. And Nguyen Hue, at the suggestion of Nguyen Youquan, even put aside Nguyen Yue's orders and went on an unauthorized northern expedition, but he also successfully eliminated the Zheng regime and occupied Thang Long (Hanoi). Later, Nguyen Yue feared that Nguyen Yue's rule over Bac Ha would increase greatly, so he rushed to Thang Long Province overnight to meet the nominal ruler of Annam. Emperor Li Chozong of the Li Dynasty met. So under the tripartite talks of Nguyen Yue, Nguyen Hue and Le Thi Zong. The Tay Son dynasty recognized Le Cho Trong's rule over Bac Ha (the northern region of Vietnam). And the Nguyen brothers returned south together.

After completing the great cause of unifying Annam, Nguyen Yue was very satisfied, and named himself the central emperor and ruled Guiren. He also named Ruan Hui as the king of Beiping and ruled Fuchun; Feng Ruan Lu is the king of Dongding, and he governs Jiading. In this way, the Nguyen brothers each had a military force in their hands, which laid the groundwork for the eventual outbreak of conflict in the future.

Ruan Yue was arrogant and lascivious after becoming emperor. When Nguyen Hue was in the Northern Expedition to Lord Zheng, he occupied the wealth of Lord Zheng, and Ruan Yue asked him for it, but Nguyen Hue did not give it to him. Nguyen Hue wanted to annex the land of Quang Nam, but Nguyen Yue also refused. In this way, the feud between the two sides grows bigger and bigger, which eventually leads to a brotherly rivalry. Ruan Yue not only killed the heroes in vain, but also **** Ruan Hui's wife and concubine. Nguyen Hue issued a document listing Nguyen Yue's crimes, and first sent troops to attack Nguyen Yue. Siege Quy Nhon City. Ruan Yue urgently summoned Deng Wenzhen to lead Jiading's troops to support, but Deng Wenzhen was defeated and captured by Ruan Hui. Nguyen Hue built a dirt hill outside Quy Nhon City. Put the cannon on the dirt hill and bombard Quy Nhon City. Ruan Huijun's cannonballs were as big as a fight, Ruan Yue saw that the forces were invincible, and ordered people to pick up the cannonballs and cry in the Taimiao, and personally climbed the city tower to Ruan Hui: "Cook meat in a leather pot, how can my brother bear it." Nguyen Hue was finally moved and withdrew his troops, and the two sides negotiated peace on the border and went their separate ways.

Later, Ruan Youquan, who was responsible for assisting the Lê Dynasty, had a heart of self-reliance and coveted Nguyen Hue's territorial power, and the two sides went to war, and Nguyen Hue sent troops to eliminate Nguyen Youquan, which also made the Later Lê Dynasty finally extinct, and Lê Chou Zong fled to the Qing Dynasty.

Different from the other history, it was Qianlong's son Jiaqing who ruled the Qing Dynasty at this time, and Jiaqing was busy dealing with the Gurkhas, and did not have the heart to help Li Chouzong restore the country. Therefore, it was only to appease the people of the Li family, and sent an envoy to reprimand Ruan Hui. There is also the role played by the ministers within the Qing court, Emperor Qianlong was relatively rigid and self-serving, he was arbitrary, and he would do what he decided. And Jiaqing is still somewhat indecisive, although he is more optimistic about the financial situation and military situation of the Qing State, but the first auxiliary minister Wang Jie and some cabinet ministers believe that the Houli Dynasty is unbearable to support, even if the troops are sent to exterminate the Xishan Dynasty, it costs money and cannot maintain it, so it is better to wait and see first.

It didn't matter if he waited and watched, Ruan Hue, who had won successive victories, began to become complacent and arrogant like his eldest brother Nguyen Yue. Previously, he knew that the Tang people supported Ruan Fuying, but after Ruan Fuying was defeated, he went to ask the Tang people for help, but the Tang people ignored it. Ruan Hui naturally thought that it was the Tang people who were afraid of the strength of their army and did not dare to act rashly. In addition, he defeated the Zheng main forces one after another, and even defeated Ruan Yue, and he felt that he was extremely strong and had nothing to spare. Even after Li Shuzong fled north into Guangxi and asked for help from the Qing state, the Qing court did not make any reaction, which made him feel that even China, the suzerainty of Annam, had been very jealous of him for a long time.

Under this illusory illusion, Nguyen Hue's ambition swelled further, and even directly asked the Qing State to make peace, and asked the Qing State to give him the Liangguang region as a gift of peace. Of course, Ruan Hui didn't know that Emperor Jiaqing's sisters and sisters were basically taken to Nanguwei Island by the Tang people. And Jiaqing's daughters are too young, and Xu is about the same as Ruan Hui's son Ruan Guangzhang.

Ruan Hui is not only so domineering in words, but also has a matching line in action. Militarily, he began to reorganize the military system, and Nguyen Hue selected soldiers. According to the Ding Book, one person for every three Ding is selected as a soldier, which is its main source of soldiers. The armed forces are divided into three levels: "Dao", "Qi", and "Team". In addition, Ruan Hui also bribed some pirates in the South China Sea to crack down on Qing merchant ships and fishing boats that traveled to and from the surrounding waters.

However, it was precisely because of Ruan Hui's military reform that the Tay Son Dynasty, which was already economically depressed, also carried a heavier financial burden. Even though Nguyen Hue carried out some reforms in agriculture and administration, they did not take effect quickly in a short period of time, which also made the Tay Son Dynasty actually contain a crisis.

Originally, in history, Ruan Hui's peace document was detained by local officials in Guangdong, but after the Jiaqing New Deal, the local government no longer had the ability to bully and conceal the subordinates, and the ability of information to pass up and down has also improved. In addition, Jiaqing also got information from the Tang people, saying that Ruan Hue was fighting in Vietnam and had the heart to covet the Qing Dynasty, which made Jiaqing furious.
