In the ancient Chinese military history, there was one of the earliest, largest and most thorough large-scale annihilation wars, which took place in the Warring States period of the dispute between the princes, the Battle of Changping. The Battle of Changping began in the 53rd year of king Zhou Zhao (262 BC), when the Qin state led an army to fight against the Zhao army in the Changping area of the Zhao state for three years. The Zhao army was finally defeated, and the Qin general Bai Qi won a great victory after this battle, "famous for eternity", killing 400,000 Zhao generals.
The Battle of Changping was the final turning point in the history of the Warring States, and it was also the foundation laid by the State of Qin to sweep through Liuhe, so it was only a matter of time before the Qin State unified the world, and the Six Eastern Kingdoms could no longer resist.
What was the situation in the other five eastern countries during the confrontation at the Battle of Changping? Didn't they understand the truth that the zhao state destroyed their western portal and opened widely, and from then on the Qin army left the customs and flattened the river?
In fact, the cause of this incident is because of South Korea. In the forty-fifth year of king Zhao of Zhou (270 BC), the Qin army crossed Korea and attacked the state of Zhao, but was defeated by the Zhao general Zhao Hao at Fu He. At this time, Fan Ju proposed to King Zhaoxiang of Qin the strategy of "long-distance and close attack", and he asked the King of Qin to attack Wei first, and then turn to Korea.
In the fifty-third year of the Zhou Dynasty (262 BC), the State of Qin occupied the Wild King of Korea, so that the connection between Shangdang County and the mainland in Korea was completely cut off. The Korean monarch Han Huanhui proposed to abandon Che Baoshuai— and let the then Shangdang County Shou Feng Ting dedicate Shangdang County to the Qin State in order to ask the Qin State to stop the army.
However, Feng Ting was reluctant to surrender to Qin, and under the planning, he decided to rely on the strength of the powerful Zhao State at that time to resist Qin, and prepared to dedicate the seventeen cities of Shangdang County to the Zhao State.
King Xiaocheng of Zhao, the ruler of the State of Zhao, listened to the advice of Zhao Sheng and Zhao Yu, the ruler of the State of Zhao, accepted Feng Ting's Shangdang Commandery, and made Feng Ting the Prince of Huayang, sending Pingyuan Jun to Shangdang to take over the land, while sending Lian Po to lead an army to garrison Changping. The Shangdang incident was the fuse of the Battle of Changping between Qin and Zhao.
It is reasonable to say that the three Jins are of the same origin, one side has difficulties, and South Korea should send troops to help, but South Korea silently does not send troops. Obviously, Korea was already scared by the Qin state at this time, and he was afraid that the Qin state would turn the spearhead at this time and pick the soft persimmon first.
In the same way, the old and spicy King Zhaoxiang of Qin had already cleaned up the other two countries in the Three Jin Dynasties. Wei Guo and Zhao Guo are next to each other, on the one hand, Wei Guo is a little afraid of Qin Guo, after all, it is always under the eyes of Qin Guo, who knows which day he will not look good and step on his own rivers and mountains; on the other hand,
Wei Guoqun's subjects believed: Qin Fa Zhao, and Wei Ben.
That is to say, the confrontation between Qin and Zhao was very beneficial to the State of Wei, because in the central and western regions, the two countries of Qin and Zhao were fighting with each other, and the State of Wei could profit from the fishing. If the Qin state is not victorious over Zhao, it will take advantage of the victory and attack it, and if it wins Zhao, it will obey. In this way, wei naturally would not send troops.
At that time, Chu Guo was very eager to send troops to help Zhao Guo, after all, the enemy of the enemy was a friend, and the revenge of the flooded capital had not yet been repaid.
However, the State of Qin had already told the State of Chu that if you were pro, you would retreat, and if you were not close, you would attack them. The meaning of the State of Qin is that if the State of Chu comes to help the State of Zhao, then I will fulfill your wish not to fight the State of Zhao, but I will beat you, who let you be the big brother of this head. Of course, if you stand by and watch, then I will continue to fight Zhao Guo, and you will watch. In this way, the Chu state was also frightened.
There was a vendetta between Yan and Zhao itself, and the Yan state itself was a bitter cold place, the conditions were harsh, there was not much strength, and the Yanqi War was not completely restored a few years after the end of the Yanqi War.
And the State of Qi has always been touted by the State of Qin very fluttery: Eh, my State of Qin helped you fight the world, you just have to look, when the time comes, we have half of you in the world, half of me, you are called the Eastern Emperor, I call the Western Emperor. The State of Qi has always adhered to the principle of peaceful coexistence for fifty years, soaked in the sweet words of the Qin State, and made frogs in warm water.
During the Warring States period, the princes were eternal allies with only eternal interests. Sometimes they were united, sometimes horizontal, but no matter what, the dominant relationship between the princes was always the Qin state, a big country with sufficient military strength. And the disunity between the six kingdoms led to the fact that Qin wu had lost his will, and the princes of the world were already trapped. Therefore, he lost from the scattered covenant, fought for the land and bribed Qin. Qin had the strength to control its disadvantages, chasing after the dead and chasing the north, ambushing millions of corpses, bleeding and drifting; taking advantage of the advantage, slaughtering the world, and splitting the mountains and rivers. The strong countries please obey, and the weak countries enter the DPRK. The reason for the cold teeth and cold teeth is understood, but it cannot be done.
