The war was about to start, but Wang Jian sat on the floor and asked for money. Qin Shihuang rewarded him for 17 years of wealth.

Introduction to

: Wang Jian is a famous general in the Qin State. He once commanded the Qin Army to defeat the Three Jins and defeat the Yan State. Just as the State of Qin further destroyed Chu, Qin Shihuang had doubts about employing people and began to use Li Xin as a general. But after Li Xin failed to defeat Chu, Qin Shihuang had to use Wang Jian and handed over 600,000 Qin troops to Wang Jian. The battle between Qin and Chu was about to start, but Wang Jian sat down and raised the price, asking Qin Shihuang for a lot of money. What is interesting is that Qin Shihuang not only did not doubt him, but re-used Wang Jian and rewarded the wealth of the Wang family for 17 years. After 28 years, we have gradually come to understand Wang Jian's brilliance and understand why the ancients said that reading history can be wise.

went straight to the horse, assisting the emperor of the Qin emperor

after Wang Jian was a famous family, "New Tangshu" deduced that Wang Jian was the 18th grandson of the prince of Zhou Ling, the king of Jin. He liked to study the military since he was a child and has served Qin Shihuang for a long time. When Qin Shihuang was young, Chang'an Jun and Fan Yuqi turned side by side and began to rebel with their troops. At that time, Qin Shihuang asked Wang Jian to put down the rebellion, which was obviously to support his confidant. The power of the government has been controlled by Lu Buwei for a long time. The Qin Shihuang's path to power has been bumpy. Without a strong military force, he might become a puppet and it would be difficult to win Qin Jiangshan. Wang Jian easily quelled the rebellion of Emperor Chang'an and became a rookie in the military.

In the 9th year of Emperor Qin's administration, Ying Zheng went to Yongcheng for the crown ceremony. According to Qin's rules, after completing this ceremony, Qin Shihuang should formally pro-government, and Lu Buwei must hand over power. Throughout history, the heroes after the transfer of power often did not end well. Shang Yang, Zhang Yi, Fan Ju and others are all precedents. In order to prevent Lu Buwei from jumping over the wall, Qin Shihuang asked Wang Jian to sit in Xianyang, and at the same time sent 30,000 elites to escort Qin Huang to the west. Under Wang Jian's pressure, Lu Buwei did not dare to make any trouble, but Lai Lu, who was far away in Yongcheng, launched a mutiny to attack Qin Shihuang.

At the critical moment, Qin Shihuang used Wang Jian's soldiers and horses to quickly quell the rebellion of Lailu, and let Wang Jian purge the political group formed by Lailu in Xianyang. Wang Jian immediately assisted the Qin Emperor and strangled the Lailu Group, forcing Lu Buwei to surrender the power of the state. "The power is no better than the savior." Wang Jian's assistant, Qin Shihuang, completely mastered the State of Qin and was deeply trusted ever since. Z1z

swept the Three Jins and became the great cause of the Emperor of Qin

later generations often regarded the sweep of the Three Jins as the key to the unification of the world by Qin Shihuang, and Wang Jian was the key. Under the leadership of Wang Jian, the State of Qin conquered Kanyou, continued to erode the Three Jins, and launched a war of annihilation after Qin Shihuang took office. South Korea is the closest and weakest country to Qin. Qin easily destroyed South Korea and asked Wang Jian to direct Qin Jundong to destroy Zhao. Everyone knows that in the late Warring States Period, there was only one State of Zhao in the East who could sway the State of Qin. Although he experienced the Battle of Changping, the Hundred-legged Worm was dead and not stiff, and the State of Zhao still had the ability to prevent Qin from going out.

Under Li Mu's command, Qin Jun and Zhao Jun were stalemate for a year and failed to move forward. One thing that Wang Jian was praised for was his courage and conspiracy. He saw that he couldn't beat Zhao Guo to death, so he used a countermeasure to get rid of Li Mu. After Li Mu's death, the resistance to destroying Zhao was greatly reduced, and the State of Qin broke through Handan in one fell swoop and assigned the land of Zhao State to Qin Land. After that, the Qin State began to move out non-stop, and under the command of Wang Jian, the Qin Army defeated the State of Yan. At the same time, Wang Ben’s son, Wang Ben, destroyed the State of Wei, laying the foundation for the unification of the Qin Emperor. Z1z

Emperor and his ministers had gaps, and the Emperor Qin was suspicious. In the 23rd year of Qin Shihuang, Qin Shihuang began to discuss with his officials about the destruction of Chu. Wang Jian believes that Chu’s strategy is deep and broad, and that it’s not only an army of 600,000 troops, is indestructible, but Li Xin believes that only 200,000 is enough. At this moment, Emperor Qin Shihuang let Li Xin take charge of Chu. This released a signal that Wang Jian could no longer make military merits. Qin State adopts the military merit system. If Wang Jian makes military merit again, or Wang Jian's son destroys the country again, how can Qin reward such heroes? Cracking the earth? Sharing the country? Stop teasing, who is Wang Jian? Military authority figures in the Warring States Period, once such a person was torn apart, would the Wang family become a confidant after several generations of development?

has always been well-used and is the confidant general of Qin Shihuang, at this time there was a gap with Qin Shihuang. Didn't Qin Shihuang know that Chu is vast? Qin and Chu have fought many times, and both sides are very clear about how many jins are. 200,000 will destroy Chu, so Bai Qi and Sima Cuo are not as good as your Li Xin? Qin Shihuang knew that Li Xin had a gambling element. To a large extent, he appointed Li Xin not for military reasons, but for political reasons. At that time, Qin’s military mainly relied on the Meng family (Mengtian family), Wang family (Wang Jian family), and Li family (Longxi Li family). Once any of these three families is strongGetting up would inevitably disrupt the balance. In order to avoid this situation, Qin Shihuang deliberately let Li Xin and Meng Tian make contributions.

Wang Jian also understood what Qin Shihuang meant. Instead of waiting for the master to commit suicide, he might as well retreat and return home. Wang Jian said he was sick and resigned from the court and returned to his hometown to provide for the elderly. At this time, Qin Shihuang and Wang Jian reached an agreement, I will not slaughter the heroes, you are not exclusive and involved in politics, everyone is good, leaving a good name for cooperation between the monarch and the ministers. As a result, Li Xin and Meng Tian were useless and were beaten by Chu State. The furious Qin Shihuang ran to ask Wang Jian to come out of the mountain. The success of

goes down in history, and the rapids retreat bravely

When Wu Anjun did not lead the battle, he was given to death. If you don’t lead your troops in battle, you will repeat the mistakes of Emperor Wu’an. But if you send troops to fight, how can you avoid the problem of high-powered combat? Wang Jian believed that what the emperor was worried about was the ambition of the ministers. If he had no ambition, wouldn't it be possible to avoid the emperor’s suspicion? After thinking it through, Wang Jian boldly asked the emperor to give him fertile land. The battle between Qin and Chu was on the verge of breaking out. Qin's coach only wanted to have money, land, and beauty. This behavior was very puzzling.

"Historical Records·Volume Seventy-three·Bai Qi Wang Jian's Biographies No. 13": Or said: "Generals begging for loans are already very difficult." As for the commissioner, I don’t ask Tianzhai to support my descendants. Gu told King Qin to sit and suspect me of evil?”

This is the original sentence recorded in the Records of the History. Wang Jian’s men were worried that Wang Jian was insatiable and made Qin Shihuang angry. But Wang Jian said: "You know what a fart, our king likes to jealous about ministers. Now all the soldiers in the Qin Kingdom are in my hands. If I don't pretend to be the same, how can Qin Shihuang trust me." In fact, Qin Shihuang was learning what Wang Jian asked for. After the news, Shi Huang laughed (this is the original story of Shiji), and did not mean to blame Wang Jian. Afterwards, Wang Jian destroyed the Kingdom of Chu and marched south to Baiyue to worship Wu Chenghou. At this time, there was no suspicion in the visit, and Qin Shihuang trusted Wang Jian even more, because Wang Jian only wanted money and had no ambition.

Under the adorable shade of Qin Shihuang, the Wang family gained 17 years of wealth. It was not until the death of Wang Li that the Wang family began to decline (Ben, Li Ji-chu, three generations of unknown names). However, Wang Jian's rapids retreated bravely to avoid being slaughtered, while at the same time seeking welfare for his descendants. In contrast, Han Xin is a typical negative. Wang Jian assisted Qin Shihuang to unify the world and obtained three generations of wealth; Han Xin assisted Liu Bang to unify the world and obtained Manchu Sect. Is Liu Bang's suspicion heavier than Qin Shihuang? No, Qin Shihuang's suspicion is the heaviest. In order to avoid the dictatorship of the harem, Qin Shihuang could not establish a queen. Is this suspicion weaker than Liu Bang? .

After a lapse of twenty-eight years, I began to understand Wang Jian's brilliance from the death of Han Xin. "A Fanggong Fu": Qin people have no time to mourn for themselves, and later generations mourn; later generations mourn without learning it, and later generations mourn for future generations again. What is the purpose of studying history? In order to learn from the wisdom of the ancestors, Wang Jian borrowed from Bai Qi's experience and achieved success by himself. However, Han Xin didn't learn from Wang Jian's experience, which resulted in a lot of copying. I think this is the importance of learning history.
