Chapter 20 3030s BC (270-261 BC)

1. The Kingdom of Qin (the capital Xianyang) attacked the Kingdom of Zhao (the capital Handan), and the army surrounded Yanhe (Heshun County, Shanxi Province. Yan, sound yu). King Zhao (the second King Huiwen) Zhao He asked Lian Po and Le Cheng: "We If we send reinforcements, will there be any rescue?" The two replied: "The distance is long and the road is dangerous, so I'm afraid it's too late." Zhao He asked Zhao She again, and Zhao She said, "The road is long and the road is dangerous. A decisive battle is like two mice meeting in a small cave, the brave side will win." Zhao He ordered Zhao She to lead an army to help.

Zhao She led the army to set off, camped thirty miles away from Handan (the capital of Zhao, Handan City, Hebei Province), and ordered: "Anyone who dares to talk to me about military affairs will be beheaded." In the west of Wu'an City, Hebei Province, camps were set up, and the drums of war were like thunder. The roof tiles in Wu'an City were shaken, and people were frightened.An officer suggested that Wu'an should be rescued first, and Zhao She executed him immediately.Stick to the camp for twenty-eight days without moving an inch, and build permanent fortifications.Qin Jun's spies entered Zhao Jun's camp quietly. Zhao She pretended not to know, but treated him kindly.The spies reported back, and the commander-in-chief of the Qin Army celebrated and said: "If you leave the capital for thirty miles, you will not advance any further, but instead try your best to build fortifications. Yan Yu is no longer the Kingdom of Zhao's."

After Zhao She let go of the spies of the Qin army, he ordered a strong march and arrived at the battlefield in one day and one night (Handan, Yan and the air distance were 120 kilometers away), camped fifty miles (25 kilometers) away from Yan and built a fortress. As soon as it was completed, the Qin army got the news, poured all its troops, and went straight to the Zhao army's position.Xu Li, a non-commissioned officer (sergeant) of Zhao Jun, asked for permission to give his opinions on military operations.Zhao She agreed, and Xu Li said: "Qin Jun never expected that Zhao Jun would rush to Yanyu. He was both shocked and angry. The first wave must be a breakthrough from the center, which is unstoppable. If we can't strengthen our depth equipment, we will definitely be broken through a gap. The whole army collapsed." Zhao She said: "I accept your advice." Xu Li said: "According to the military law, I should be executed." Zhao She said: "Then we have to wait for the order of Handan." Xu Li reminded him again Commander-in-Chief: "Whoever controls Beishan first will win, and whoever cannot control Beishan will lose." Zhao She immediately dispatched 10,000 elite troops to occupy the Beishan pass.The Qin army had arrived at this time and attacked Beishan first, unable to move forward. Zhao She launched the most violent counterattack. The Qin army was defeated and retreated in embarrassment.

Zhao He appointed Zhao She as Ma Fujun, with the same official position as Lian Po and Lin Xiangru, and appointed Xu Li as the security officer (Guowei). 2. Wei Ran, Prime Minister of the Qin Kingdom, recommended a foreign advisor (Keqing) Zao (surname unknown) to the Qin King (the third Zhaoxiang King) Yingji, and ordered him to lead an army to attack the Qi Kingdom (the capital Linzi) and occupy Gangyi (Shandong Province Ningyang County), Shouyi (Dongping County, Shandong Province), used to increase their fiefdom Taoyi (north of Yongji County, Shanxi Province. The air distance between Gangyi, Shouyi and Taoyi is 600 kilometers, occupying Gangyi , Shouyi, it is impossible to expand the fiefdom. Some people think that Taoyi refers to the ancient Taoqiu, now Dingtao County, Shandong Province, like a vacation villa. Then this villa is isolated between the Kingdom of Wei and the Kingdom of Qi, not adjacent to the Kingdom of Qin , How could it be obtained in the first place? How to defend? It is confusing).

At first, Fan Ju (sound ju) from the Kingdom of Wei (the capital Daliang) accompanied Xu Jia, a middle-level state official (middle doctor), to the Kingdom of Qi. Tian Fazhang, the king of Qi (the fourth king of Xiang), appreciated Fan Ju's eloquence very much, and specially presented it as a gift. He had some expensive gifts, including gold and food and drink.Xu Jia thought that Fan Ju must have leaked state secrets, otherwise, the king would not respect him so much.After returning to the country, he reported to Prime Minister Wei Qi. Wei Qi realized that the time had come to show his loyalty with the suffering of others, so he threw Fan Ju to the ground with a big banquet, beat him with sticks, and ignored any complaints.Fan Ju's ribs were broken, his teeth were knocked out, and he was dying.Wrap it with a bamboo mat and throw it beside the cesspit like a dead dog.In order to show his patriotic anger, Wei Qi taught the guests to take turns to urinate on him, in order to warn future generations not to be traitors and talk nonsense to foreigners.Stimulated by urea, Fan Ju woke up leisurely, and begged the guard: "Please get me out, I will thank you very much." The guard suggested to Wei Qi to allow him to throw the body away from the bamboo mat. Wei Qi was already drunk, Easy to agree.Fan Ju was carried out into the wild.Wei Qi soon sobered up, regretted not checking clearly, and ordered to be wanted.

Zheng Anping, a petty citizen of the Kingdom of Wei, harbored Fan Ju and changed his name to Zhang Lu.At this time, Wang Ji, the concierge officer (visitor) of the Kingdom of Qin, was in the Kingdom of Wei. Fan Ju went to see Wang Ji at night. Ying Ji received him in the palace. Fan Ju has already entered the long alley of the palace, but pretends not to know.The leading eunuchs of Yingji warned Fan Ju, "You are so foolish, the king is about to arrive." Fan Ju said, "What king? Your country only has the Empress Dowager (Queen Dowager Xuan) and Ranghou (Wei Ran) that's all." Ji vaguely heard this, so he dismissed his attendants, knelt down and asked, "Sir, please teach me." This is a sitting method. Kneeling is just to straighten the upper body a little bit, and the buttocks are slightly away from the heels of the calves, which is not the posture of the offspring, and it is half shorter).Fan Ju said: "Where is there." After three times, Ying Ji said: "You really will never teach me." Fan Ju said: "How dare I do this, just because I am just an exiled intellectual and alienated from the king. , but the suggestion I made is closely related to your majesty. Although you are among the flesh and blood of others, although you are willing to be foolish and loyal, you don’t know what your majesty is thinking. So your majesty dared not answer three times. If I speak before my face, I may be punished tomorrow. I will not run away from punishment. I am destined to die. As long as death can benefit the Qin Kingdom, I am willing to do so. The most fearful thing is that after I die, the world's virtuous people will never dare to go forward again. Come and serve.” Yingji knelt still and said, “What did you say, sir? I can see you today. It is God who used me to increase your troubles. Please come to preserve the sacrifices of your ancestors. No matter how big or small, it is up to you. Mother (Empress Dowager Xuan), please teach me down to the ministers, don't doubt." Fan Ju thanked him, and Ying Ji also thanked him. Fan Ju said: "With the strength of the Qin Kingdom and the bravery of the soldiers, facing the nations, it seems like a fierce king. The hunting dogs fight lame rabbits. But Hangu Pass (northeast of Lingbao County, Henan Province, the easternmost pass of the Qin Kingdom) has been closed for fifteen years, and dare not look at Shandong (east of Xiaoshan Mountain) (this passage is too exaggerated In the fifteen years, the Qin Kingdom ravaged "Shandong", seizing the city and killing people, and there are many historical sites). The main reason is that the king's uncle Wei Ran did not serve the country faithfully, and the strategy designed for the king was wrong." Yingji continued to kneel And said, "Please tell me what's wrong."

However, Fan Ju discovered that someone was still bugging behind the screen, so he first analyzed the international situation and observed Yingji's reaction.Soon, those who speculated about the eavesdropping thought it was nothing, and after retreating, Fan Ju went straight in and said: "Wei Ran passed through the Kingdom of Wei and Xue Kingdom (Teng County, Shandong Province) and attacked Gangyi (Ningyang County, Shandong Province), Shouyi (Shandong Province Dongping County) was a big mistake. At the beginning, King Qi (the third king of Min) attacked the land of Chu Kingdom (capital Chenqiu) in the south, broke the army and killed generals (refer to 301 BC), and opened up a thousand miles of territory. But in the end, they didn’t get a single inch of land. Why? The reason was that the situation didn’t allow it. Afterwards, all the countries found that the strength of the Qi Kingdom was exhausted, and they jointly besieged the Qi Kingdom. The Qi Kingdom almost perished. The Kingdom of Wei and the Kingdom of Han (the capital Xinzheng). My opinion is: the king should establish a grand strategy of long-distance and close-attack. An inch of land is always an inch of Qin Kingdom. A foot of land is always a foot of Qin Kingdom. , will never be lost again. Today, Han and Wei are located in the heart of China and are the gateways to the world. If the king wants to dominate the world, he must be close to China (the Qin Kingdom has always been regarded as a barbaric state different from China. At that time, "China" Meaning, refers to the Central Plains, that is, "Shandong" to the east of Xiaoshan). After mastering the door, we will exert pressure on the Kingdom of Chu and the Kingdom of Zhao. If the Kingdom of Chu is strong, we will help the Kingdom of Zhao; if the Kingdom of Zhao is strong, we will help the Kingdom of Chu. Both Zhao and Zhao rely on us, and the Qi Kingdom must be afraid. At that time, the Wei Kingdom and the Han Kingdom will become our captives." Yingji was overjoyed and appointed Fan Ju as a foreign advisor (guest minister) to discuss military affairs.

Bo Yang said: Fan Ju made a speech in one sitting and formulated an all-round foreign policy of "distance and near attack" for the Qin Kingdom. To this day, it is still a sacred classic that all invaders pursue with sincerity and swear unswervingly.Since the rise of the Qin Kingdom, it has conquered east and west, and its gains have been limited. It relies on brute force to fight against the whole world.After the grand strategy of long-distance and short-range attack is determined, the strength of the troops will become a destructive trend, and no one can stop it. Fan Ju was the last talent who was forced to rebel by the Kingdom of Wei.We can't imagine what history would look like if Gongsun Yang, Zhang Yi, and Fan Ju were reused in the Kingdom of Wei.The people in power in the Kingdom of Wei's methods of turning friends into enemies and loyalists into traitors are shocking.An interesting topic is that everyone in the government of the Kingdom of Wei can speak good words, plan and plan, plan and have plans, and loyal people, such as Wei Qi and Xu Jia, have more hair than donkeys, which one is not talent?As for Gongsun Yang, who is just a clerk who wants to be promoted and wants to go crazy, Zhang Yi is just an unrealistic poor scholar, and Fan Ju is just a traitor with a smooth tongue, big talk, and foreign ties.They neither joined a certain faction, nor were they accepted into a certain gang. It was the emperor's grace to escape death.Under the bloody mouth of the shark, the talent is either swallowed, or turned into an enemy and strongly rebounds.The rise and fall of the regime and the rise and fall of the country have a very clear trajectory.

1. The Qin Kingdom (capital Xianyang) Zhong Geng (the eighth level of Qin officials) Hu Shang, and then attacked the Zhao Kingdom (capital Handan) Yanyu (Heshun County, Shanxi Province), and was defeated. 1. The Kingdom of Qin (capital Xianyang) used Fan Ju's grand strategy to send five officials (the twelfth level of Qin officials) Wan (surname unknown) to attack the Kingdom of Wei (capital Daliang) and occupy Huaiyi (Wuzhi County, Henan Province). 1. The prince of the Qin Kingdom (capital Xianyang) served as a hostage in the Wei Kingdom (capital Daliang), and died in the Wei Kingdom this year.

1. Qin Kingdom (capital Xianyang) attacked Wei Kingdom (capital Daliang) Xingqiu (east of Wen County, Henan Province). 2. Fan Ju was trusted by King Qin (the third Zhaoxiang King) Ying Ji, and gradually gained real power.Therefore, at a suitable opportunity, Fan Ju suggested: "When I was in Shandong (east of Xiaoshan), I only heard that there was Tianwen in the Kingdom of Qi (the capital Linzi), but I didn't hear that there was a king in the Kingdom of Qi. I only heard that the Kingdom of Qin had a queen mother." , There is Wei Ran, and I have never heard that there is a king in the Qin Kingdom. The one who presides over the government is called the king, the one who decides the interests is called the king, and the one who holds the power of life and death is called the king. Now, the Queen Mother has left the king aside and ordered the world. Wei Ran (Ranghou, Uncle Wang) went on a mission to a foreign country and never reported to the King after returning. Mi Rong (Jun Huayang, Uncle Wang) and Ying Kui (Jun Yang, younger brother of Wang) were arbitrary and had no scruples. Ying Xian (Gao Lingjun, brother of the king) Come and go freely, and ignore the king. Four privileged figures are in power. If the country is not in danger, it has never happened. Under the pressure of these four privileged figures, who cares who is the king ?Wei Ran relied on the power of the king to suppress countries at will, and used the credentials of the Qin Kingdom to travel all over the world. No matter whether he attacked any country or any place, no army dared to refuse to dispatch. When he won, the spoils of war were sent to his fief Tao Yi (north of Yongji County, Shanxi Province, refers to the attack on Gangyi and Shouyi in 270 BC). When the war was defeated, the resentment of the people was passed on to the country. I have heard that too many fruits will break the branches and branches After breaking, it will hurt the root of the tree. If there are too many other cities in a country except the capital, it will definitely endanger the central government. If the ministers are overly respected, the king is considered very humble. Nao Chi controls the Kingdom of Qi As a result, the government shot arrows at the thighs of the king's (the third King Min's) field, stretched the tendons of the field, hung the field on the beam, and died after a night of screaming (refer to 284 BC). The Kingdom of Zhao (the capital Handan) had great power and imprisoned the Supreme Emperor (master father) Zhao Yong in Shaqiu (Pingxiang County, Hebei Province). He starved to death for a hundred days (refer to 295 years ago). The actions of these dignitaries are also those of Naochi and Li Dui. The reason why the country perished in the three dynasties (three dynasties: Xia Dynasty, Shang Dynasty, and Zhou Dynasty) is that the king handed over power to his officials, but he himself blindly drank and hunted. Authorized cronies are all jealous of the virtuous and harmful, bullying the superior and the inferior, satisfying their own selfish desires, and never thinking about the king. And the king is not awakened, so he loses power. Now, from the lowest officials to the heads of various central agencies ( Officials), and your guards around you, Your Majesty, are almost all the personal henchmen of the Prime Minister (Xiangguo) Wei Ran. Whenever I think of how isolated your Majesty is in the government, I can’t help but sweat for you. Once you unfortunately die, I’m afraid the ruler of the Qin Kingdom is not Your descendants." Ying Ji shuddered.So it was ordered to prohibit the empress dowager from interfering in political affairs, to remove Wei Ran, Mi Shu, Ying Kui, and Ying Xian from their government positions, and to send them back to their fiefs.Appoint Fan Ju as prime minister and seal Yinghou.

3. The Kingdom of Wei sent Xu Jia as an envoy to the Kingdom of Qin. Fan Ju, dressed in shabby clothes, visited the hotel.Xu Jia was surprised that he didn't die, but also pitied him for his downfall in a foreign land. He couldn't help but say, "Uncle Fan, are you okay after we broke up?" Shang’s nickname “Lao San” when he was a good friend, may also be a common appellation when people greeted each other in the Warring States Period: “Brother Fan.”) After leaving Fan Ju to sit down for a meal and drink, he found that Fan Ju was cold, and gave him another Silk gown.Fan Ju then acted as his coachman, went to the Prime Minister's Mansion together, and said to Xu Jia: "I will go to my friend first, and ask him to introduce you to the prime minister." Xu Jia waited and waited, but Fan Ju did not come out. Said: "What Fan Ju? I don't know him. The man who came in just now wearing rags and holding a silk robe is our prime minister, and his name is Zhang Lu." When Xu Jia heard it, it was as if a huge thunder had hit his head, and there was a loud bang, Almost passed out, he knew he had fallen into a trap, he was under surveillance, and he couldn't run away.So, I got down on my knees and crawled on my knees, begging forgiveness.At the banquet, Fan Ju blamed Xu Jia for his injustice of betraying his friends, and finally told him: "The reason why you can save your life today is because you gave me this silk robe, and there is still a little bit left." An old friend." Invite the guests to take their seats, teach Xu Jia to sit below, put a plate of feed for horses - broken grass mixed with black beans, put it in front of Xu Jia, and teach him to swallow it.Fan Ju ordered him to bring a warning to Wei Yu, the king of Wei Kingdom (fourth King Anli), "Chop off Wei Qi's head and send it to us. If you refuse, we will capture Daliang (Kaifeng City, Henan Province, the capital of Wei Dynasty), The city will be massacred." Xu Jia told Wei Qi after returning home.Wei Qi was frightened out of his wits, and the prime minister quit. He fled to Zhao Kingdom and took refuge in Zhao Sheng (Pingyuan Lord). Bo Yang said: Although Xu Jia is an ambassador with a high status, he is actually just a gangster in the officialdom.He betrayed Fan Ju not because he really suspected Fan Ju of leaking state secrets, but because he was jealous of Fan Ju.As an ambassador, none of them received the courteous reception of the king, but a entourage was honored, which not only made him lose face, but also made Fan Ju the icing on the cake, which would jeopardize his own future.Only then did he secretly lay a murderous hand and falsely accuse him of treason.One is to remove potential political enemies, and the other is to strengthen the thickness of loyalty, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.When he saw Fan Ju again, that sliver of conscience saved him.With the strength and barbarism of the Qin Kingdom, it would not blink to kill a foreign envoy. 4. Zhao He, the king of Zhao Kingdom (the second king of Huiwen), passed away, and his son Zhao Dan succeeded him (the third king) as King Xiaocheng; he appointed Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng as the prime minister. 1. The Empress Dowager (Empress Dowager Xuan) of Qin Kingdom (capital Xianyang) passed away. In September, Wei Ran was dismissed from all government positions and returned to his fief Taoyi (north of Yongji County, Shanxi Province). Sima Guang said: Wei Ranqing supported Yingji with all his strength, killed all political enemies, recommended Bai Qi as a general, and attacked Yancheng (south of Yicheng County, Hubei Province) and Yingdu (Jiangling County, Hubei Province) to the south. Refer to 279 BC, BC In 278), Xiangdong reconciled with the Kingdom of Qi (the capital Linzi), and made the kings of all countries bow their knees.The fact that the Qin Kingdom is stronger is due to Wei Ran.Although his tyrannical power, pride and greed are enough to cause him great disasters, it is not as bad as Fan Ju described.Fan Ju is not really loyal to the Kingdom of Qin, he is only planning for the interests of the Kingdom of Qin, but only wants to seize Wei Ran's high position, so whenever he has the opportunity to strangle him by the throat, he will not let go.As a result, Ying Ji severed the bond between mother and child, as well as the bond between uncle and nephew.All in all, Fan Ju is a dangerous man. Bo Yang said: We agree that Fan Ju is a dangerous person. The problem is that everyone who participates in political struggles under an autocratic regime is not a dangerous person.Fan Ju must seize Wei Ran's high position in order to implement his foreign policy.It is as if Sima Guang had to seize Wang Anshi's high position in order to abolish the new law.It is true that Wei Ran made great contributions to the Qin Kingdom's expansion of territory, but no matter how great his contribution was, he could not allow him to "run wild with power, be proud and greedy for violence".Sima Guang believed that as long as he supported the king and made great achievements, his official position should be made of iron, sacred and inviolable.And we think that a female tycoon plus four male tycoons, who have been in power for forty-two years, should also owe their asses.The reason why Sima Guang had such an idea was because the direct victims of "authoritarian rampage, pride, greed and violence" were ordinary civilians without power and power, and the people in power were kicked out of power by a small person, breaking the "noble ones are always noble, and the humble ones are always noble". Sima Guang couldn't help the iron law of "those who are always cheap" and the death of the rabbit and the fox's sorrow. That is to say, in terms of purely personal feelings, Yingji did not kill his mother, but asked her to stop interfering in politics, and did not kill his uncle, but asked him to retire. Yep"?Is it in line with the code of etiquette to watch him continue to "run wild with power, pride and greed" and ignore him?If this is the code of etiquette, the code of code of etiquette is poison.Common people don't want to be trampled under the feet of royal relatives and relatives forever. As Sima Guang said, only official position and power should not be given to others casually, nor should it be used as a tool for personal gratitude or revenge.In fact, Yingji asked his uncle to hold the power for forty-two years, and the remuneration was nothing short of mediocre.If the country is ruined, Sima Guang will blame him for giving the official position and power to others indiscriminately.When Sima Guang commented on Tian Wen, he once said: "As long as his opinion is correct, even if the intention is treacherous, it should be adopted." .Is Fan Ju's attack on one woman and four men fair?If what he said is true and Yingji accepts it, he should be praised.If he speaks nonsense and Yingji accepts it, he should be condemned.And Sima Guang also admits that one woman and four men are "powerful, arrogant, greedy and violent", so why is it at this juncture to discuss his "treacherous" motives? Sima Guang always forgets what he said, but never forgets the position of the scholar-bureaucrat with vested interests. 2. The King of Qin (the third Zhaoxiang King) won Ji, and his son An Guojun Yingzhu was established as the crown prince. 3. The Kingdom of Qin attacked the Kingdom of Zhao (the capital Handan) and occupied three cities.Zhao Dan, the king of the Kingdom of Zhao (the third Xiaocheng king), has just ascended the throne, and his mother-in-law, the Empress Dowager, is in power.The government decided to ask the Kingdom of Qi (the capital Linzi) for help, and the Kingdom of Qi replied: "Your brother Chang'an Jun (unknown name) must be sent as a hostage." The Empress Dowager refused, and the Kingdom of Qi refused to send reinforcements.The ministers tried their best to analyze the interests, and the empress dowager declared: "If anyone proposes to send Lord Chang'an as a hostage again, I, an old woman, will spit on his face." This is a trick, and everyone is silent.The royal teacher (Master Zuo) Chu Long asked for an audience, and the Empress Dowager was so angry that she ordered Chu Long to come in, planning that as soon as he opened his mouth, she would have a fit.Chu Long walked very slowly, sat down reluctantly, apologized and said: "I am old and my feet have problems, and I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a long time. Sometimes I comfort myself, fearing that the Queen Mother is not in good health, and I don't want to disturb you, but I always hope I can see you again." The Empress Dowager said: "It's not easy for me to move around, I always take chariots (cars pulled by people) everywhere." Chu Long said: "Has the Queen Mother's appetite decreased a bit?" The Empress Dowager said: "I usually only eat porridge." After gossip, the empress dowager's anger gradually disappeared.Chu Long said: "Among my sons, there is one named Shu Qi who is the youngest, but also the most disappointing. I am too old, and I love him very much in my heart. Today, when I meet the Empress Dowager, I am begging for the Empress Dowager's grace and let him make up for him. The position of the palace guard, dedicated to protecting the royal family. Please risk your life, please have mercy on the queen mother." The queen mother said: "No problem, how old is he?" Chu Long said: "Fifteen years old, although young, but I would like to Before he dies, entrust him to the queen mother." The queen mother said: "You men also love your youngest son?" Chu Long said: "Love him even more than women." The queen mother laughed and said: "Women are not the same " Chu Long said: "Based on my observation, the Empress Dowager loves her younger daughter thousands of times more than her younger son." The Empress Dowager said: "Your observation is wrong, I love my younger son the most." Chu Long said: "No way. Dad Mother loves her children, and she will always plan for their future. When your daughter married the king of the Yan Kingdom (the capital of Jicheng) and became the queen, you hugged her feet and cried, pity her for marrying into a distant foreign country, and felt very sad. After sending you off , It’s not that you don’t miss her, it’s not that you don’t want to see her, but you pray: ‘She must never come back.’ It’s because you’re afraid that her married life will be dissatisfied, and more importantly, to bless her children and grandchildren, from generation to generation, Be the king of the Kingdom of Yan." The Empress Dowager said: "Your analysis is correct." Chu Long said: "Calculating from now on, among the descendants of the king before the third generation, are there any who are still in charge today? The empress dowager said: "No." Chu Long said: "This is just a saying: 'Those who are close will suffer disaster. Those who are far away will suffer disaster.' It's not that the king's descendants are necessarily Being a talent does not mean that those who become princes or kings must be villains. It is just because they have a high status, but they have no credit for the country, and they are well paid, but they have no contribution to society, but they have fame and wealth. Now, It seems that you love your youngest son so much, raised his status, granted him the most fertile land in Zhao Kingdom, and gave him countless pearls and agates. However, you did not seize the opportunity to make him serve the country. Once the Queen Mother After Qianqiu Long Live, may I ask why Lord Chang'an gained a foothold in Zhao Kingdom?" The Empress Dowager was terrified, and said anxiously: "I already understand, please send him as you like." Lord Chang'an led a convoy of more than a hundred grand attendants to the Kingdom of Qi as hostages.The reinforcements of the Kingdom of Qi then set off, and the Qin army retreated immediately after receiving the news. 4. Tian Dan, Anping Jun of the Qi Kingdom, joined forces with the Zhao army to attack the Yan Kingdom and occupied Zhongren (Tang County, Hebei Province).Then attack the Kingdom of Han (the capital Xinzheng) and occupy Zhuren (Ruzhou City, Henan Province). 5. Tian Fazhang, the king of the Qi Kingdom (the fourth Xiangwang), passed away, and Zi Tianjian succeeded to the throne (the fifth). He was still young, and the Empress Dowager (the queen, the daughter of the Taishi) presided over the state affairs. 1. Lord Wuan Baiqi of Qin Kingdom (capital Xianyang) attacked Han Kingdom (capital Xinzheng), captured Nanyang (west of Xiuwu County, Henan Province), advanced to the foot of Taihang Mountain, and blocked the mountain road. 2. Mie, the king of the Kingdom of Chu (capital Chenqiu) (the 22nd king of Qingxiang), was ill.Huang Xie suggested to Fan Ju: "The King of Chu is seriously ill, and I am afraid he will not recover. For the sake of the Qin Kingdom, it is better to send the prince Mi Wan who is a hostage back to his country. If Mi Wan can inherit the throne, he must serve the Qin Kingdom carefully. , I must be grateful to you, it is equivalent to cultivating an ally with ten thousand chariots. If you don’t let him go back, he is just a small citizen with no power and power on the streets of Xianyang (the capital of Qin Dynasty, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province). Once the Kingdom of Chu Supporting another new king will inevitably keep a distance from the Qin Kingdom. Losing an ally and ruining the friendship of a great country is not the best policy." Fan Ju reported to Ying Ji, who said: "First send the prince and master back to the country to greet him, and wait He asked Ann to come back, and we will study again." Huang Xie discussed with Mi Wan secretly and said: "The reason why the Kingdom of Qin detains the prince is of course to seek benefits, but you actually have no power to do things that are beneficial to the Kingdom of Qin. During the bargaining process, Yang Wenjun (name unknown, Based on the situation, it may be that the two sons of Mi Wan's uncle are in the country. If the king dies and the prince is not around, one of the two sons will inherit the throne, and you will never have your share. It is better to escape quietly and follow The master went back to the country together. Just leave me here, it’s a shame they killed me.” Mi Wan then changed her clothes, pretended to be a coachman, and went straight out of the checkpoint.Huang Xie stayed to guard the official residence where Mi Wan lived, claiming that Mi Wan was sick and needed to recuperate, so he would not see any visitors for the time being.After calculating that Mi Wan had gone far enough, it was too late for the pursuers, so he reported to Yingji: "The crown prince has returned and is about to arrive in the country. I am willing to accept your country's death penalty." Rest of the volunteers.Fan Jujin said: "Huang Xie is just a subject, and he is willing to sacrifice his life for his master. If Mi Wan can inherit the throne, he will definitely use him again. It is better to let him go back and let him establish a pro-Qin government." Ying Ji nodded. . Huang Xie returned to the Kingdom of Chu, and three months later, in autumn, Mi Heng passed away.Mi Wan succeeded to the throne (twenty-third term) as King Kaolie.Appoint Huang Xie as prime minister, enfeoff him the land north of the Huai River, and call him Chunshenjun. There is no record for this year. 1. The Kingdom of Chu (capital Chenqiu) ceded Zhouyi (northeast of Honghu City, Hubei Province) to the Kingdom of Qin (capital Xianyang), and then vowed to reconcile. 2. Bai Qi, Lord Wuan of the Qin Kingdom, aggressively attacked the Han Kingdom (the capital Xinzheng) and captured the Wild King (Qinyang City, Henan Province).The traffic between Xinzheng, the capital of the Kingdom of Korea (Xinzheng County, Henan Province) and Shangdang County (Changzi County, Shanxi Province) in the north, was cut off.Shangdang County Magistrate (Shangdang Guard) Feng Ting discussed countermeasures with senior generals and decided: "We have lost contact with the capital, and the Qin army is advancing towards us. The government has no strength to send reinforcements. We might as well surrender Zhao Kingdom (capital Handan), if the Kingdom of Zhao accepts it, and the Qin army continues to move, the Kingdom of Zhao will be attacked, and it will definitely form an alliance with the Kingdom of Han. The combination of Han and Zhao will be able to resist the invasion of the Kingdom of Qin.” So envoys were sent to Handan (Hebei Province Handan City) said: "If the Kingdom of Han cannot defend Shangdang, it will definitely be taken over by the Kingdom of Qin. However, we would rather be subjects of the Kingdom of Zhao. The seventeen cities of Shangdang County, large and small, are presented to the king." King Zhao (three King Ren Xiaocheng) Zhao Dan asked Pingyang Lord Zhao Bao for advice, and Zhao Bao said: "The sage has a saying: for no reason, the benefits of falling from the sky are a kind of disaster." Zhao Dan said: "Shangdang soldiers and civilians are willing to join us. , How can it be said that it came from nowhere for no reason?" Zhao Bao said: "The Kingdom of Qin adopted a policy of encroachment on its neighbors, eating one bite at a time. It cut off the Kingdom of Korea and separated the territory of the Kingdom of Korea from north to south. Is it the purpose? Only occupying Yewang? Obviously, their goal is Shangdang, and they think that they will naturally fall into their pockets. The reason why the officials of the Han Kingdom stationed in Shangdang did not surrender to the Qin Kingdom is because they wanted to save the disaster. Pass it on to our Kingdom of Zhao. The Kingdom of Qin worked hard to cultivate, but the Kingdom of Zhao reaped it happily. It must not be accepted." Zhao Dan asked Pingyuan Lord Zhao Sheng's opinion again, and Zhao Sheng agreed to accept it.Therefore, Zhao Dan sent Zhao Sheng to receive it, and named Feng Ting, the county magistrate of Shangdang, a city of three thousand households, named Huayang Jun.The county magistrates were granted the title of Marquis of three thousand households (in the late Warring States Period, "Hou" and "Jun" came out together. Seeing the conferment of the Kingdom of Zhao, "Hou" was one level lower than "Jun"), and other officials were promoted to three ranks. class.Feng Ting wept sadly, but seeing the envoy, he said, "I can't bear to sell the king's land as my fief." Bo Yang said: Shangdang is not only a hot potato, but also a bomb that has been ignited. It is too late to throw it out, but Zhao Guoguo hugged him tightly, thinking that heaven is a blessing.Zhao Bao's analysis is three points to the bone.But Zhao Sheng is like an idiot, this nobleman who is proud of "Jianghu loyalty", is just an ordinary pompous person, his eyes only see cicadas, but not the oriole; he only sees the land, but not the army of the Qin Kingdom.Weak and small countries have the way to build a country as a weak and small country, and they must never challenge their strong neighbors.Violation of this principle is sure to lead to defeat and even death.Accepting Shangdang is a wrong decision.Poor soldiers and people - as many as 450,000 people, paid their lives for this wrong decision of senior officials. There is no record for this year.
