Hello everyone, welcome to light dust to say history, I am light dust. Speaking of Lianpo, everyone will definitely think of the story of "bearing the jing please sin" learned in the primary school textbook, but Lianpo, as one of the four famous generals of the Warring States, his story is far more than this, today we will talk about Xinping Junlianpo.
The Great General is incorruptible
Lian Po was a native of Kuxing County, Zhongshan County, with the surname of Yin, the Lian clan, and the name Ofpo, a famous general of the Zhao State during the Warring States period. Friends who have played the glory of the king must know that Lianpo fights fiercely in the game, but what everyone does not know is that Lianpo fights more fiercely in reality.
Incorruptibility in the glory of kings
In 284 BC, Lian Po and Le Yi led an army, together with the four kingdoms of Yan, Qin, Han, and Wei, to attack the State of Qi and destroy the Qi army.
In 283 BC, Lian Po led the Zhao army to attack the hinterland of the strongest State of Qi in the east, and captured the key city of Jinyang, which shocked the world, making all the princes afraid, and the officials worshiped Shangqing.
In the same year, the State of Zhao obtained the most precious treasure and the clan Bi, and the State of Qin wanted to seize its treasure, so it proposed to exchange fifteen cities for the treasure, and the eunuch Miao Xianli recommended lin Xiangru as an envoy to the State of Qin, returning to Zhao with great wisdom and eloquence, and achieving a diplomatic victory over Qiang Qin. In a fit of rage, the State of Qin attacked the State of Zhao and captured the Stone City of the State of Zhao, and the following year, Qin attacked Zhao again, killing 20,000 people.
In 282 BC, the King of Qin proposed to make an alliance with the King of Zhao at Shichi and shook hands and made peace, but the King of Zhao was afraid that the King of Qin would not be good for him and did not want to go. After discussing with Lin Xiangru, Lian Po felt that King Zhao should go to show the great power style of the Zhao State and the heroic courage of the King of Zhao, and because Lin Xiangru resolved the secret moves of the King of Qin one by one, Lian Po made careful arrangements to receive the King of Zhao, and finally the King of Zhao was able to return home safely.
After returning to the Zhao Kingdom, king Zhao believed that Lin Xiangru had the greatest merit, and worshiped him as Shangqing, ranking above Lianpo. Lian Po was very unconvinced, and said: "I am a great general of the Zhao Kingdom, who has made great achievements in attacking the city and expanding the territory and defending the territory, but he is like a little tongue but he is above me, I can't bear it, I see Lin Xiang is like, I must humiliate him." When Lin Xiangru heard about this, he said that he was ill and did not go to the court, and avoided meeting Lian Po, his disciples felt that the two had the same official position, but Lin Xiangru was so afraid of Lian Po that he resigned one after another and said the reason, Lin Xiangru said: "With the power of the King of Qin, I still dare to rebuke, how can I be afraid of General Lian, but the reason why Qiang Qin did not dare to attack Zhao was because there were two of us, if the two tigers fought, it was bound to hurt one of them, and I wanted to put the affairs of the state in front, and put my personal grudges in the back." After Lian Po learned of this, he took the blame for Jing's request, and the two became close friends, which is the origin of the good story "Will Be Harmonious".
Bear the sin of thorns
In 279 BC, Lian Po led an army to attack the State of Qi in the east and defeated its army.
In 276 BC, Lian Po led an army to attack the State of Wei and captured the State of Wei.
In 269 BC, the State of Qin attacked Jiyi, Lian Po saved the field, and greatly destroyed the Qin army.
Shinpei Jun's incorruptibility
In 262 BC, the State of Qin attacked Shangdang in Korea, the Han army was powerless to resist, Taishou Feng Ting presented Shangdangjin to the State of Zhao, the King of Qin was furious, and then attacked Zhao, wanting to seize Shangdang, and the newly succeeded Zhao Xiaocheng Wang Ordered Lianpo to command the Zhao army and block the Qin army at Changping. Lian Po saw that the morale of the Qin army was high, and the Zhao army had traveled a long distance, the soldiers were poor, and the troops were also at a disadvantage, so he formulated a strategy of strengthening the city and strictly guarding it, and held it for three years, with the intention of smoothing out the Qin army's vigor and thwarting the Qin army's plan for a quick victory. This was a good strategy, the Qin army was anxious to fight a decisive battle, so it had to use the counter-strategy, so that King Xiaocheng of Zhao replaced Lian Po and replaced him with Zhao Kuo, who could only talk about soldiers on paper, while the Qin State secretly replaced the main general with a generation of war god Wu Anjun Baiqi, and as a result, the Battle of Changping was defeated by Zhao Kuo, and 400,000 Zhao troops were captured and buried alive, losing 450,000 soldiers in World War I. The State of Qin advanced, the army besieged Handan, and the State of Zhao was almost destroyed, but fortunately Chu and Wei helped each other and survived.
Twilight's incorruptibility
In 251 BC, the Yan state minister Li Belly believed that the elite of the Zhao State had died in the Battle of Changping, and proposed to The Yan King Xi to wait for the opportunity to attack the Zhao State, and the Yan King Xi ordered li Belly to attack the Zhao State of Yan, and Qing Qin led an army to attack the Zhao State Daidi. King Xiaocheng of Zhao ordered Lian Po to lead an army to counterattack, although the enemy was outnumbered, but Lian Po still defeated the Yan army in Yancheng with fewer victories, killed Li Belly, captured Qing Qin, and pushed all the way back to besiege the capital of the Yan state, the King of Yan ceded five cities to seek peace, and the King of Zhao gave up. After this battle, Feng Lian was quite trustworthy and peaceful.
In 245 BC, Lian Po led an army to attack Wei and capture Fanyang.
At this time, King Xiaocheng of Zhao died, and King Xiang of Zhao took the throne. At the beginning of his succession, he deposed Lian Po and took up the post of Le cheng, and Lian Po was ostracized for no reason and left Zhao to surrender to Wei, but he always cared about Zhao Guo. Later, because the State of Zhao was besieged by the State of Qin many times, the King of Zhao had no choice but to use Lianpo again, but Guo Kai, the enemy of Lianpo, was afraid that Lianpo would regain power, so he bribed the emissaries to let him say bad things about Lianpo. In the end, King Zhao thought that he was "incorruptible and old", and did not use him again, lianpo was concerned about Zhao Guo but failed to have the opportunity to serve the motherland, and finally died of depression, and died of illness in Chu Guo Shouchun at the age of 83. Shortly after Lian Po's death, the State of Zhao was finally destroyed by Qin.
Qingchen believes that although the old general Lianpo was a rare longevity general of that era, the taste of being unwilling to work hard in his later years and not being able to repay the motherland with his last remaining strength may be really uncomfortable, perhaps since the moment when Lianpo was replaced by Zhao Kuo in the Battle of Changping, Zhao Guo's qi has been exhausted, even if Zhao Guo is in a slump, Lian Po has been doing his best to protect Zhao Guo, until the moment of his death, he still has the motherland in mind, which is enough for all of us to sincerely admire.
