From ancient times to the present, there are not a few assassins in the world, if they can successfully assassinate them, they can get a name in one fell swoop, although the assassins can also be passed down through the ages, but if the assassination fails, the honor is not good or not, not to mention, the life will definitely not be saved, and it will die very tragically, and if it is not good, it will also involve family and friends, fall into the fate of the nine tribes, and even harm a country.
Today I want to tell you about the two most famous assassins in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, these two assassins have similar experiences and similar endings to being executed, but their achievements are very different, these two assassins are Jing Ke and Zhuan Zhu.
Speaking of Jing Ke, everyone should be no stranger, in the primary school Language textbook we often hear stories about Jing Ke's assassination of Qin, and his final outcome is a failure, when he assassinated the King of Qin, although the King of Qin faced danger, but in the end they all escaped by chance.
And Jing Ke's fate was more miserable, not only was he killed himself, but even the Yan Kingdom was destroyed. Some people say that the King of Qin is defenseless, and Jing Ke can't assassinate him, is it stupid? Actually, no, we're all wrong. Jing Ke was too excited for the reason, originally he had a chance.
At the beginning, the King of Qin intended to destroy the Six Kingdoms and unify the world, and seeing that he was about to hit the State of Yan, Prince Dan of Yan, in order to save his motherland, secretly found Jing Ke, hoping that he would help the State of Yan to kill the King of Qin, and originally the State of Yan still had a chance to breathe.
However, due to the failure of Jing Ke's assassination, the King of Qin was furious, so the King of Qin led a large army to attack the Yan state in advance, and the Yan state was destroyed. Therefore, Jingke's assassination of Qin is not only a matter of personal honor and disgrace, but also bears the life and death of the entire Yan kingdom behind it, and the failure of Jingke's hedgehog Qin undoubtedly pushed the road of death of the Yan state network and accelerated the demise of the Yan kingdom.
After Jing Ke's failure to stab Qin, although there are still people who call him a hero, indicating that he has the courage to assassinate the King of Qin, which is really rare, but his failure has caused many disasters, as far as the end of history is concerned, Jing Ke is a loser, a failed killer who has the trust of Prince Dan of Yan.
According to the tradition of succession in the State of Wu, the elder brother died and the younger brother succeeded to the throne, and the younger brother died, and the older brother died, and the older brother's son succeeded to the throne, but it should have been Gongzi Guang's turn to succeed to the throne.
However, Wu Wangfu preemptively became the King of Wu, which made Gongzi Guang resentful, so he asked for a capable killer in the world, wanting to kill Wu Wangfu and regain his position as King of Wu. As a result, Hezhuo became the Assassin of Gongzi Guang.
The assassination was successful, he took out his weapon and killed him with one blow, Wu Wangbian died on the spot, and Gongzi Guang succeeded to the throne, of course, after the successful assassination of Wu Wangzhuo, he was also cut into meat sauce by Wu Wangzhi's people.
Like Jing Ke, Zhuan Zhu died tragically in the end, but the success of Zhuan Zhun wrote history and achieved Gongzi Guang, and after Gongzi Guang succeeded to the throne, he was not ashamed of the country and the people, and among them, The dedication was indispensable.
When Jing Ke stabbed Qin, because he sacrificed Fan Yuqi's head and presented the map of the Yan kingdom, he won the trust and joy of the King of Qin, who was defenseless at the time, but it was under such circumstances.
Jing Ke did not kill the King of Qin, on the contrary, the Wu King's staff had always been suspicious of Gongzi Guang, and when he killed the Wu King's staff, the Wu King's staff had always been wary, but in the end, the Wu King's staff was still killed by the special, what caused the completely different result?
First of all, in terms of personal ability, Jing Ke is not as dedicated as he is, jing Ke was well taken care of by Prince Dan of Yan before assassinating the King of Qin, every day there is wine to drink and meat to eat, there are palaces to live, there are beautiful women to serve, and life is not comfortable.
On such a comfortable day, Jing Ke's skills were smoothed out a lot. On the contrary, he specializes in the slaughter of livestock in peacetime, and often interacts with people, so he is handy in assassination without any flaws.
The second point is that the object of Jing Ke's assassination is the King of Qin, who in his early years killed the enemy everywhere in the north and south conquests, and had certain skills, and Jing Ke wanted to assassinate such a powerful person, which was more difficult than zhuanzhuo.
Because the target of the assassination was Wu Wangbian, Wu Wangbian was originally a scheming villain, he never took a gun to the horse, fought and killed the enemy, so for a stubborn disciple who had no power to tie the chicken, the assassination would be smoother.
Third, when Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, there were many ministers under the King of Qin to help, especially taiyi, who was resourceful and not in danger, and was very calm, when Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin.
Taiyi came to the aid many times, and the King of Qin could be said to have the help of nobles, so he escaped a difficult situation, and Wu Wangyi did not have the help of nobles when he was assassinated, so if Tian did not help him, he would undoubtedly die.
