It was an event that lasted for three generations, sixty-seven years of confrontation, six large-scale wars, the killing of five kings, and the death of one king. Collectively known as the Quwodai Wing.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="01">前期故事</h1>
The story also begins with the Western Weekend Year.
During the reign of King Xuan of Zhou, the ruler of the Jin state was the Marquis mu of Jin. Mu Hou's wife gave birth to two sons, the eldest son was called Qiu, and the second son was called Chengshi.
There is such a legend about the names of the two sons of the world: It is said that when Muhou followed the King of Zhou to fight against the Rong people, the result was a fiasco, and when he returned, his wife gave birth to a son, and Muhou named this son Qiu to remember this defeat. Later, another year, Mu Hou went to fight against the Rong people, won a great victory, and after returning, he gave birth to a son, so he named this son Chengshi, which means winning the war. At that time, some people said that the names of these two princes were reversed, the name of the eldest son was unlucky, but the name of the second son was very good, and in the future, the eldest son was afraid that he would not be able to stop the second son. But it's all legend.
Later, Mu Hou's younger brother Uncle Yan usurped the throne, and Gongzi Qiu fled abroad; a few years later, Gongzi Qiu returned to kill Uncle Yan and regain the throne.
He is the Marquis Wen of Jin mentioned earlier.
Wen Hou was a powerful monarch who ruled for forty years and built the Jin dynasty into a first-class power that shook the world.
But Wen Hou made a mistake: he did not discipline his younger brother Chengshi. Obviously, he had a lesson in his uncle's usurpation of the throne, and he didn't know why Wen Hou would make such a mistake.
According to the provisions of the sub-feudal system, the Wenhou branch was the great sect and the successor of the family power; the Chengshi faction was the small sect and needed to set up another portal. It is reasonable to say that The power of Xiaozong should be clearly limited, but in fact it is not.
Therefore, by the time Wen Hou passed away, the power of the Master was already very large.
In 745 BC, Marquis Wen's son ascended the throne as Marquis Zhao of Jin.
Zhaohou, the young man, felt that he could not restrain the strong uncle at all, so he made a seriously wrong decision - to seal his uncle Chengshi to Quwo, far away from the capital, so Chengshi was also known as Quwo Huan Uncle.
Perhaps Zhaohou was a weak man who thought that since he could not restrain this uncle, he simply kicked him away and sent him to a distant fiefdom, and he was not seen; he thought that he was far away from the political center, and he could not turn over any waves. Unexpectedly, this time it became a release of the tiger back to the mountain.
The capital of the Jin State was in the wing, but Qu Wo was the largest city in the Jin State, larger than the wing - from this point it can be guessed that perhaps the sealing of the Chengshi to Quwo was not Zhaohou's own idea, but the Chengshi took the initiative to fight for it - in short, this is equivalent to sending a solid rear base to the Chengshi.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="02">第一次弑君</h1>
Master Cheng, now known as Uncle Qu Wo Huan, was already an old man close to sixty years old. His vast political experience made him an extremely difficult old fox to deal with, probably similar to his brother at the beginning, and even worse. From the moment he left the capital, he drew up a series of rigorous plans to seize power.
And he does have extraordinary talents, especially good at winning people's hearts. According to historical records, Uncle Qu Wo Huan was very popular with the common people, and there was an endless stream of people from all over the Jin Dynasty who went to him.
Under the efforts of Uncle Huan, Quwo's human and financial resources grew rapidly, becoming a political force that could compete with the central government of the Jin Dynasty.
After only seven years, Uncle Huan was ready to seize power.
There is a poem in the "Book of Poetry and Tang Feng", "Yang Zhi Shui", which is said to describe the scene when Qu Wo's army was preparing to march to Yicheng:
The water of Yang, the white stone is chiseled. Suyi Zhu (bó), from the son yu wo. If you see a gentleman, why not be happy?
Yang Zhishui, Shiraishi Haohao. Plain clothes Zhu embroidery, from the son to the crane. Seeing the gentleman, how worried is the cloud?
The water of Yang, the sparkling white stone. I smelled of fate, and I did not dare to tell anyone.
"Plain clothes Zhu Jiao, from zi Yu Wo" means wearing a white and red collar military uniform, assembling in Qu Wo, listening to Uncle Huan's orders, and getting ready to go.
"If you see a gentleman, why not be happy in the clouds", this is the praise of the people who follow Uncle Huan.
"I heard of the fate, and I did not dare to tell anyone", which means that I received an order to drive to Wing City, which is a major military secret and cannot be leaked.
In 739 BC, just as Qu Wo was preparing to launch a rebellion, there was a sudden change in Yicheng, and the chancellor Pan Father killed the Marquis of Jin zhaohou and asked Uncle Huan to enter the city to govern. It is very likely that the killing of the king was the result of Uncle Huan's remote control, but there is no evidence.
Before Uncle Huan's army could enter Yicheng, the forces supporting Zhaohou within Yicheng launched a counterattack and sent troops to defeat Huanshu, who had to retreat to Quwo. The government army pursued and killed Quwo, but by this time Quwo was already solid, and the government army could not enter it, so the two sides had to collect troops.
The people on the other side of Yicheng killed Father Pan and made Marquis Zhao's son a prince, for the Marquis of Jin.
This was the first execution of the "Quwo Dai Wing".
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03" > second execution</h1>
Seven years of painstaking management still failed.
At this time, Uncle Huan was already very old, and although he had enough ambition, he was no longer able to continue to fight for power. He was suppressed by his brother for most of his life, and when he could finally turn over, he almost failed to succeed.
Eight years later, Uncle Huan died in a depressed state of regret.
His son Gongzi Eel ascended the throne as Quwo Zhuangbo.
Since Qu Wo Xiaozong's ambition to seize power had been exposed, he could no longer coexist peacefully with the central government of Yicheng, and the two sides would definitely fight until you died.
Zhuang Bo still followed the strategy formulated by his father, continuing to run Quwo while preparing for war against Yicheng.
After another seven years, Zhuang Bo found the opportunity and led his army to attack Yicheng again, killing the Marquis of Jin. Seeing that it was about to succeed, the Jin government counterattacked again, and the army of the state of Xun defeated Zhuang Bo, drove Zhuang Bo back to Quwo, and then supported the Marquis of Jin.
This is the second killing of the king.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="04">逼死晋鄂侯</h1>
After resting for a few years, Chuang Bo launched another attack. This time Zhuang Bo was more prepared, first bribing the Zhou royal family to get Zhou Tianzi to support him—Zhou Tianzi sent the doctors Yin and Wu to help Zhuang Bo—and then united with Zheng Guo and Xing Guo to jointly attack Yicheng.
This was the largest military strike, and all the countries of the Central Plains and the Zhou Dynasty government participated in the war. The central army of the Jin dynasty could not support it, and was completely defeated, and Ehou was driven out of Yicheng and fled to Suiyi, where he died shortly afterwards.
Zhou Tianzi himself took the lead in undermining the sub-feudal system and encouraging the rebels to commit crimes, and the so-called "Zhou Li" had been completely abandoned (this matter is unreasonable, this historical record may be wrong, or some events have been omitted).
When Zhuang Bo heard the news of Hou Xue, he immediately sent troops again to attack the central government of the Jin state, but for some reason, Zhou Tianzi suddenly turned his face and in turn helped the Jin government, sending Yu Gong to lead troops to attack Qu Wo (this is also unreasonable, may be wrong in the history books). Zhuang Bo had no choice but to abandon Wing City and lead his troops to rescue Qu Wo.
This was the third battle, and there was no direct killing of the king, but it forced the death of Ehou. This time the seizure of power was again a failure, but the central government of the Jin State was basically crippled and was no longer able to resist the attack of Quwo's army.
The Yicheng side then supported the Marquis of Jin.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="05">第三次弑君</h1>
Zhuang Bo continued Uncle Huan's career throughout his life, but unfortunately he still failed to succeed, and passed the baton to his son, Qu WoWugong.
In 716 BC, Duke Quwowu succeeded to the throne and continued to pursue the dreams that the previous two generations had not been able to complete.
In the eighth year of the Reign of the Jin Dynasty, the Jin government encroached on the land of the Imperial Court. Emperor Jingting asked Quwo for help, and the two sides joined forces to fight back against the central government of the Jin Dynasty. The government forces were again defeated, and The Marquis of Sorrow was captured and killed by Duke Wu the following year.
This is the third time to kill the king.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="06">第四次弑君</h1>
The Yicheng side then supported the Marquis of Jin.
The fate of Xiao Zihou was equally tragic, and the history books record that he was "booby-trapped" by Wu Gong, the specific details are unknown, and he may have been killed in the process of negotiations between the two sides. At this time, the younger son Hou had only succeeded to the throne for three years. The three generations of their grandchildren have been in power for less than twenty years combined, so when the Marquis of Sorrows and the Younger Son Hou were killed, they should have been young, especially the Little Boy Hou, who was only a teenager at best.
This is the fourth time to kill the king.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="07">第五次弑君</h1>
Finally, in 679 BC, Duke Wu of Quwo launched another war, once again crushing the central government of Yicheng and killing Marquis Of Jin.
This is the fifth assassination.
Duke Wu learned the lessons of the previous episodes and bribed Zhou Tianzi with treasure stolen from Yicheng,at this time the Tianzi was the king of Zhou (xī). Seeing that qian was open-eyed, the king of Jin not only did not help the Jin government, but simply made Duke Wu the prince of the Jin state.
With the official certification of Zhou Tianzi, the Quwo forces successfully whitewashed.
Since then, Quwo Wugong has become Jinwu Gong, Quwo Xiaozong has become the new Jin government, and a new Jinguo has stood on the stage of history!
After three generations, sixty-seven years of confrontation, six large-scale wars, the elimination of five kings, and the death of one king, Quwo Xiaozong won the final victory in this battle for the throne.
