Qin Shihuang was busy all his life, but in the years of 24-29, he seemed to have made no achievements. The truth is not that this financial blogger is saying is blank. On the contrary, look at how , the First Emperor, refused to lie flat in the past few years, and how to add inner and outer volumes? The six kingdoms died! #Seeking Beauty in China# #Qin Shihuang#
Our First Emperor ascended the throne at the age of 13 in 247 BC. The Qin Wang Zheng , who had just ascended the throne, had to call Lu Buwei Dad (Zhongfu) at that time! All military and national affairs were controlled by Prime Minister Lu Buwei. You can imagine the dangerous situation in which the young man Qin Wang was at that time. Under many unfavorable circumstances such as the mother's mischievous relationship and the military and government were controlled by ministers, the Qin Wangzheng kept hidden in the ten years after ascending the throne and secretly accumulated strength to cultivate his own people. Finally, in 237 BC, when the King of Qin was 23 years old, he suppressed the rebellion of Lao Ai, placed his mother, Empress Dowager Zhao, and exiled the Prime Minister Lu Buwei. He snatched the military and political power of Qin from Lu Buwei and took it into his own hands.
23-year-old King of Qin dismissed Lu Buwei and had removed the most dangerous stinger around him. However, you should know that Lu Buwei, the previous Yiren of King Zheng of Qin, was sent to the Qin State as a hostage to the State of Zhao State, and began to lobby and lay connections for Yiren's future in Qin. From 265 BC to 237 BC, when Lu Buwei was abolished, this man had been deeply rooted in Qin for nearly 30 years. Lu Buwei, who is powerful in the court and the opposition, has a huge and complex party-troop group. When the young Qin King took away Lu Buwei, he also eradicated the Lao Ai group raised by his mother at the same time. This was so amazing. Next, the King of Qin will face who should eradicate and who should retain? Let the military and political power of the entire Qin State stabilize and become what you can control. This is by no means a matter of a day or a night.
After doing this, Qin Wangzheng was really not idle. He activated Chu State people Li Si and insisted on governing the country according to law. Based on the diplomatic strategy of getting along with far and near, the easy to attack, and then the difficult to start, the battle to destroy Zhao was first started.
In 236 BC, when Qin Wangzheng was 24 years old, he used spies to provoke war between Yan and Zhao, using the excuse of "supporting Yan and resisting Zhao", taking advantage of the situation when Zhao attacked Yan and . He sent generals Wang Jian , Huan Qiong (yǐ), and Yang Duan to lead the army to attack Zhao Yecheng . Although Yecheng did not take it, he took the nine cities of Zhao. This year, King Zheng of Qin did not forget to send Lu Buwei to Henan.
In 235 BC, Qin Wangzheng was 25 years old, and Lu Buwei died. This good news made Qin Wangzheng completely at ease. So, in the autumn, he ordered that Lao Ai's retainers be moved to Sichuan and Sichuan, completely eradicating Lao Ai's remnants. It can be said that the 25-year-old King of Qin Ying Zheng has completely controlled the military and political power of Qin. Unfortunately, this year, the Qin State suffered a rare drought in history. In today's words, "once once in five hundred years." King Zheng of Qin did not dare to use troops on a large scale. In this way, he also sent Qin soldiers from the Four Capitals to go out to assist Wei State to attack Chu State. We cannot let the six countries and the other countries calm down.
In 234 BC, King Zheng of Qin was 26 years old. With extremely firm will, he continued to advance the war to destroy Zhao and sent general Huan Qi to attack Pingyang and Wucheng of Zhao State. The Zhao general Hu Zhé [hù zhé] was killed, and the Qin army beheaded 100,000 Zhao troops, and won a great victory. Zhao Wangqian Emergency mobilizes famous generals Li Mu leads his army south to counterattack the Qin army, and then the famous "Fat Battle " took place. "Fatal Battle", the Qin army was sieged by Li Mu to rescue Zhao, and the strategy of removing firewood from the cauldron was completely wiped out. The situation was very good, but Zhao Jun made a big comeback, which completely disrupted the strategic plan of King Qin.
In 233 BC, Qin Wangzheng was 27 years old. Qin Wangzheng, who was turned upside down by Zhao State last year, was not discouraged. His stubborn temper came to his senses and continued to send troops to attack the Zhao army in Pingyang. When the Qin army defeated the Zhao army, killed the Zhao general, and captured Yi'an .The other Qin army pacified Pingyang and Wucheng under the leadership of General Huan Qiong. At this time, South Korea's Han Fei was sent to Qin State, and Li Si used a strategy to detain Han Fei, and Han Fei was forced to commit suicide in Qin State. Qin sent Li Si to the envoy in a timely and caring manner to comfort Han King Han , and the Han king also tactfully requested to submit to Qin.
In 232 BC, King Zheng of Qin was 28 years old. Zhao State was beaten by Qin State for two years and could still stand firm. The King of Qin did not believe in evil and continued to launch large-scale troops. The Qin army divided into two groups to send troops to Zhao State, one large army attacked Yecheng, and the other large army attacked Taiyuan and took down Lang Meng. The Qin army encountered the stubborn resistance of the Zhao army. The Zhao general Li Mu turned the tide and defeated the Qin army again in " Fanwu Battle ". This year, Prince Dan of Yan, who was a hostage in Qin, fled back to Yan and began to plan to assassinate the King of Qin.
In 231 BC, the Qin King Zheng was 29 years old. In three years, the Qin King, who fought with Zhao State, suffered two major defeats, "Fat Battle" and "Fanwu Battle", and suffered heavy losses. So he decided to temporarily change his strategy against Zhao, strategically stalemate with Zhao's army, and wanted to wait for Zhao's army to attack again when they were tired. Since he will not fight Zhao for the time being, the bored Qin Wangzheng decided to take Han Shunshun. So, in September, the autumn was clear and the air was clear. King Zheng of Qin sent troops to conduct an autumn outing, took over the South Korean Nanyang , and appointed Teng as the acting prefect of Nanyang. The man was ordered to register his age and prepare for recruiting soldiers, corvee labor and other miscellaneous matters. This year, seeing such a kind Qin army, the King of Wei could no longer sit still and presented the land in Xinfeng County, Yongzhou to Qin. Qin Shunjie set this place as Liyi. The things behind
