The State of Qin, in the Warring States period, was called the "Country of Tigers and Wolves" by the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, and the countries did not dare to underestimate it at all, and even cut the land to pay compensation, sacrifice the city and beg for peace.
However, the road to the founding and rising of the Qin state is a bloody road full of thorns, several monarchs died in the conquest of Xirong, only to gain the territory of settling down, shang martingale transformation law, Zhang Yi's "lianheng" strategy, Fan Ju's "long-distance and close attack" strategy, countless Qin people died on the battlefield, and finally achieved Qin Shi Huang sweeping the world.
Whether it was the Battle of Kun that Qin Mugong's plan to advance eastward was blocked, the Battle of Ma Tunnel caused the Qin State to be depressed for several generations, and the Battle of Handan that the Qin State did not dare to go east for more than ten years, the Qin people never gave up their attempt to dominate because of defeat
Instead, it has been working hard to achieve reunification. Why did the Qin people, who regarded themselves as united in this way, not come forward when the country was in crisis later?
“
Zhao Zhao old Qin, went to the country together
”，
The combined forces of the Shandong states invaded Hangu Pass, and the country was in trouble, and the monarchs and people of the Qin state were united in defending against foreign enemies.
However, after the First Emperor unified the Six Kingdoms, he did not adjust the laws and recuperate in time, but instead vigorously developed water and soil and increased servitude, and the people's expectations for peace and stability were not realized, coupled with the fact that the nobles of the Six Kingdoms were not expelled, they spread rumors of tyranny, and Qin had lost the hearts of the people.
"Those who destroy the Six Kingdoms, the Six Kingdoms, not Qin." The qin of the clan, qin also, not the world also. The Qin people were dissatisfied with tyranny, and the monarchs and the people were separated, so naturally there was no belief in "going to the country together".
In the war of annexation of the Six Kingdoms, the Qin people sacrificed their lives and forgot their deaths in order to make meritorious achievements. However, even if the Qin army is strong, it can be ten with one, but the Qin state is facing six countries, there are too many old Qin people who died in the war, when Qin Shi Huang unified the world, the old Qin people at this time have been almost consumed, the Qin law implemented throughout the country is too harsh, except for the Qin people, the other six people can not adapt, and after Qin II came to the throne, even the Qin people themselves could not bear the tyranny, when the first emperor was there."
Yu Wei was shocked by the special customs
However, after the second Hu Hai ascended the throne, he actually allowed the eunuch Zhao Gao to act in a wrong way, and the Qin people also lost confidence in their own monarch, and naturally did not want to fight for the Qin Dynasty anymore.
When the peasant revolt broke out at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms rose up together, in fact, at the beginning, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were encouraged by the military merit system, and their combat effectiveness was still quite amazing. Chen Sheng's Wu Guang rebel army and the armies of the princes of the Six Kingdoms could not defeat the Qin Dynasty army. However, the elite of the Qin Dynasty were all at the border pass, and these Qin Dynasty troops were all prisoners of Lishan Mountain, although they were strong, they were still inferior to the "Tiger and Wolf Army". Later, in the Battle of Julu, Zhang Handan surrendered to Xiang Yu without seeking the consent of the soldiers, because he was afraid of being harmed by Zhao Gao, and the Qin Dynasty was no longer able to stop the rebels.
After Hu Hai of Qin II ascended the throne, he not only listened to Zhao Gaolisi's words and forced his brothers Fu Su and Meng Tian Mengyi to die, which made the Qin people chill, and after Liu Bang invaded Xianyang, he was about three chapters of the law, which greatly shook the psychology of the Qin people.
Liu Bang reduced the complicated and harsh punishments of the Qin Dynasty to only "three chapters", which were deeply supported by the common people
。 Moreover, Liu Bang was able to restrain his subordinates, and Qiu did not commit any crimes, so that the people of Xianyang were Qin."
Eat the pot pulp to welcome the king's master
”。 Even if he is an "old Qin person", compared with the faint Qin II, he is still more willing to support Liu Bang, who is "benevolent".
"Qin is only the second, and it has become an empty word to go to the country together", the Qin state is the Qin state, the Qin dynasty is the Qin dynasty, although the Qin state is strong, the upper and lower levels are united, but the Qin dynasty is formed by integrating other countries, and the words on cohesion are far less high than the original Qin state, and in the process of the Qin state becoming the Qin dynasty, many people who are sincerely loyal to the Qin state have long been killed for the great cause of reunification. "Zhao Zhao Old Qin, go to the country to suffer", perhaps at the time of the rebellion, there were no more old Qin people in Guanzhong.
