History is the memory of things that have been said and done. —Carl Baker
Bai Qi, the head of the four famous generals of the Warring States and a major general in the qin state, has commanded troops for decades, and has experienced more than seventy battles without defeat. In the "Records of History", Tai Shi Gong directly wrote a biography to him, which shows that his status is impressive. But it is not the whiteness in the glory of the king now.
Bai Qi also had the insult of a personal tu because he killed 400,000 pawns in the Battle of Changping. It caused the infamy of the Six Kingdoms, but that was also relative, in the Qin Kingdom, Bai Qi was the god of war, and was the representative of invincible and invincible! So why was a generation of famous generals forced to commit suicide in their prime? Listen to little Joe in detail:
First of all, it is the most superficial reason, white up the mood, do not listen to the command! After the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi originally wanted to do his best in one battle, destroyed the Zhao Kingdom in one fell swoop, but was recalled by the King of Qin, and since then he has been dissatisfied, and after a while, the King of Qin suddenly woke up and felt that the Zhao State was too variable to be destroyed, at this time, the King of Qin first used his own people to attack, and the result was lost, and then came to bai Qi, but Bai Qi refused to do it, saying that the opportunity was missed.
The King of Qin did not believe in evil, and then fought, at this time there was the matter of xinling jun stealing the charm to save Zhao, everyone also knew the ending, the king of Qin lost again, of course, he was angry, and he urged Bai Qi to come out to fight, Bai Qi still did not do it, at this time the King of Qin was angry, and felt that Bai Qi had complaints! So he gave it to death.
Of course, a generation of loyal generals died like this, although there was still a Fan Sui behind him who was pushing the waves, but the reason was certainly not like this, Fan Sui was actually innocent, he was just a pawn pushed out by the King of Qin. King Qin Zhaowang also knew that Bai Qi had not committed any crime, and if he killed him hastily, it would put the Qin military generals in a state of alienation, and even rebel against such an extreme end as the qing king's side.
In the end, Fan Sui was above the court, and he beheaded Bai Qi in one sentence, in order to correct the king's dictatorship. This is Fan Sui is the role of "substitute ghost", and he carries the bad reputation of this famous general who killed loyal subjects for the King of Qin.
In fact, the deepest reason is because the contradiction and conflict between the people behind Bai Qi and the Qin King's monarchy intensified! Bai Qi was a man of Marquis Wei Ran. And who was Wei Ran, the uncle of the King of Qin, and before the pro-Zhaoxiang King failed to govern, the major affairs of the dynasty were controlled by his uncle and his mother. Wei Ran was actually a capable person too!
Since he became The Minister of Qin, he began to use Bai Qi as a general to attack Han Wei in the east and behead 240,000 people; later attacked the State of Wei, seizing 400 miles of land in Hedong, and then occupied Hanoi and seized more than 60 large and small cities; a few years later, he attacked Wei again, besieged Wei Du Daliang, beheaded 100,000 people, and captured four cities.
Wei Ran's military exploits were outstanding, and the princes of Wei Zhen, Baohe Mountain, and the great beam were encircled, so that the princes could do things to Qin. As a result, the neighboring countries only knew that there was Wei Ran, but did not know that there was King Zhaoxiang of Qin. Gong Gao Zhen Lord is like this, in fact, it is very dangerous!
And the pro-Zhaoxiang King is still not Ah Dou, he is also a talented person, survived until his own team matured, began to control the chaogang, naturally to take Wei Ran's hand, as a nephew, Wei Ran also did not rebel, naturally can not give a dead hand, can only be in the name of him to return to the fiefdom for the elderly, in fact, to take back the power, house arrest. As Wei Ran's general, Bai Qi was not so lucky and became a person who had to be sacrificed.
