What happened to the Qin Empire (16)
Qin Xiangong Win Shi Xi's death and Shao Liang Defeat
Author‖Liang Chao
The TV series "The Qin Empire" says that Qin Xiangong died in the wolf poison arrow in the battle of Shao Liang . In this way, Qin Xiangong died in the battle of Shaoliang. In fact, these contents and plots are fictional.
According to information: Qin Xian Gong was born in the first year of Qin Ling Gong. His father died at the age of ten. Xian Gong was expelled by his family. Later, he wandered in Wei Kingdom for nearly 30 years. After returning to China, he reigned for another 23 years. When he died, Qin Xian Gong was 62 years old.
This was already a long-lived person during the ancient Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Among the later generations, Qin State kings, only Qin Zhaoxiang King lived longer than Qin Xiangong.
According to the situation at that time, Xian Gong’s eldest son Ying Qian was in his forties in his forties, and the second son Yingquliang is also nearly forty years old, and both of them can stand alone, without the need for the old man to take a harp on the battlefield.
According to common sense, Xian Gong is a king and is a long-lived person (When the Warring States Period, the average life expectancy was about 35 years old), so how could he go to the battlefield and die before the battle?
The Qin State mentioned in it stopped attacking Wei because of the death of Qin Xiangong, and then withdrew from the Hexi region. It also said that Qin State was defeated in the Battle of Shaoliang, which is also untrue, and it is contrary to the content of the historical record of that year.
According to historical records, the head commander of the Qin army who attacked Shaoliang was named "Guo", and Qin Xiangong himself did not participate in the Battle of Shaoliang, so the death of Qin Xiangong had nothing to do with the Battle of Shaoliang.
"The Great Qin Empire" TV series says that it was Qin Xiangong personally led more than 200,000 troops to attack Shaoliang, and his two sons Ying Qian and Ying Quliang both went out with the army. Ying Qian was the former general who charged in the battle, Ying Quliang was the rear general responsible for logistics support, and the one who stayed behind Liyang was Shangdafu Ganlong .
But I read the history books and found that in the Battle of Shaoliang, there was no record of Qin Xiangong's battle, nor was there a record of Ying Qian and Yingquliang's battle. In the Battle of Shaoliang, the Qin army won a great victory, and its Wei army commander Gong Shuzhuo and Wei prince Wei Zhicai were also captured by the Qin army.
According to " Records of the Grand Historian. Qin Benjian ", Qin Xiangong "in the 23rd year, he fought against Shaoliang with the Wei and Jin dynasties and captured his general Gongshuzhu". Who was the head coach? Qin Benjian did not say that if Qin Xiangong personally commanded it, it should be explained.
and " Records of the Grand Historian. Wei Shijia " also records the Battle of Shaoliang, but it does not explain who the commander of the Qin army was.
However, " Records of the Grand Historian. Zhao Shijia " has a clear record of the Battle of Shaoliang. The head coach of Qin was a concubine named "country".
"Records of the Grand Historian. The Family of Zhao": In the twelve years, Qin attacked Wei Shaoliang, Zhao saved him, and Qin retreated. In the thirteenth year, Duke Xian of Qin sent Shu Changguo to attack Wei Shaoliang and captured his princes, Zhuo and Zhuo.
According to the historical information of Qin, Shuchang was a first-class official in Qin State. In the 23rd year of Qin Xiangong, the name of this commander Shuchang in Qin State was "Guo". The word "envoy" here means delegation and dispatch.
Therefore, it was Qin Xian Gong who sent the "country" to command 200,000 Qin troops to attack Shaoliang City.
If Qin Xiangong participated in the Battle of Shaoliang, he would not have "made" the "country" of Shuchang lead his army to attack Shaoliang.
Therefore, Qin Xiangong actually did not participate in the Battle of Shaoliang in person, and of course there would be no such thing as being hit by a wolf poisonous arrow. Therefore, the death of Duke Xian of Qin had no relationship with the Battle of Shaoliang.
According to information: When Duke Xian collapsed and Duke Qin Xiaogong Yingquliang succeeded to the throne, Qin still fought with Wei in Shaanxi (now Shanzhou District, Sanmenxia City, Henan Province, original name: Shan County ) . Shaanxi City is east of today's Hangu Pass , and it should have penetrated into the Wei territory. It can be seen that the war did not stop or withdraw due to the death of Duke Qin Xian.
In fact, the real reason for the withdrawal of Qin from Hexi should be that Wei and Zhao joined forces at the time to form an alliance to resist Qin.
And the Hou of Lu, Wei, Song, Zheng (Han) also came to communicate with Wei to ease the bilateral situation. When the Qin people saw something was wrong, they took the initiative to withdraw the army and repair it with Wei, and also stopped the war with all the surrounding countries.
It should be said that the withdrawal of troops by Qin is undoubtedly very correct.
Just imagine, if Qin continues to fight with Wei, it will be alone and have to fight against many countries in Hedong, with only one power and few forces. Without permission, Qin stopped fighting with Wei, and then voluntarily withdrew from Hexi. Wei also took the opportunity to recover all parts of Hexi and took this opportunity to start building the Hexi Great Wall (now the east side of Weinan City) on the west side of Yellow River .
Therefore, it is said that Qin stopped attacking because of Qin Xiangong's death and then withdrew from the Hexi region; and then said that Qin was defeated in the Battle of Shaoliang, there are also some mistakes.
or above is the information I am looking for. If there is any error in it, it is the error of the information and it is not my way.
