Chapter 47 The first to destroy South Korea, Qin accelerated the pace of unification

The war continues. In 232 B.C., the Qin army attacked Zhao, and was defeated by Li Mu in Fanwu (now Lingshou, Hebei Province). In 231 BC, the State of Qin successfully instigated Teng (surname unknown), the defender of Nanyang in South Korea, and named him the internal history (the official name of the State of Qin, in charge of the civil affairs of the capital), so in history, this person was also called Nei Shi Teng. In 230 BC, Shi Teng as a general in Qin State sent troops to attack South Korea.Yingzheng abandoned many famous local generals, and handed over this important task to general Nei Shiteng, naturally because he was familiar with South Korea's situation and had a greater influence in the South Korean army.As expected, Nei Shiteng lived up to his high hopes, conquered Xinzheng in one fell swoop, and captured Han An, the king of Han who had been in power for nine years.The state of Qin reorganized the entire territory of South Korea into Yingchuan County.

South Korea became the first country to perish among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period. The demise of South Korea is naturally due to the strong Qin and the weak Han, but the deeper reason is that the unification of the world is the general trend. The chaos of the Warring States Period originated from the Spring and Autumn Period, but its scale and damage were far greater than that of the Spring and Autumn Period. "Warring States Policy" once vividly described: After a great war, the funeral expenses of the war dead and the medical expenses of the wounded, plus the loss of chariots, horses and weapons, "ten years of land is not worth it."The dead and wounded soldiers "have their stomachs broken, their heads are separated, their bones are exposed, their heads are stiff, and they look at each other. Father and son, the old and the weak, follow the road together." It's all over the sea."

However, since the three families were divided into Jin Dynasty for more than two hundred years, such wars have continued year after year, and the lives of the people have been devastated.The people all over the world desire to end the war more and more strongly, and the voice for realizing reunification is also getting louder. If the support of the people is the key to determining the outcome of a war, then Qin has won the support of the people in this long tug-of-war by virtue of its advanced political system, strong military strength and flexible diplomatic means, and has become the country that everyone expects. "Terminator of troubled times".

Nei Shiteng may have voluntarily surrendered to Qin State out of the idea of ​​following the sky and responding to the people, and he was willing to be driven to act as the knife catcher who destroyed South Korea.
