Ji Guo is located in the heart of the State of Qi, and it is the most important navel eye, which has always been about to climax at a poke. It is so undignified that the State of Qi has long had the heart to destroy the discipline. The last time the army was sent, Lu Huan and Lao Zhangren were embarrassed, so that the Qi soldiers were defeated by the combined forces of Lu and Zheng, and angrily led the bento. After Duke Xiang of Qi ascended to the throne, he killed Duke Huan and Zheng Jun, first avenged his father, and then continued to beat Ji Guo.

Ji Guo was a buffer zone between Lu and Qi, and whenever a soldier was in trouble, lu guo would inevitably come to the rescue. The Lu family could not resist the State of Qi, and as usual, they asked Zheng Guo to stand on the platform. Zheng Guo was frightened by Qi first, and secondly, his own domestic chaos became a national porridge, and there was the exiled monarch Zheng Ligong who was looking at the tiger outside, and he really did not dare to send troops. Lu Guo lost his arrogance at first glance, and after three days of wavering at the border garrison, he clipped his tail and returned to his hometown.

Ji Guo had no way to heaven and no door to enter the earth, so he had to ask the State of Qi to surrender. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the emphasis was on the destruction of the country, and although the Ji Kingdom died, there were still Zongmiao temples. Here is an interesting cold knowledge, that is, in the "Biography of the Nations", it is said that Ji Jun's younger brother is "Ying Ji", and Wikipedia calls Ji Guo Jiang surname, then Ji Wei is the Jiang surname, The Yin clan, the name is called Ji, maybe it is the meaning of Xingsan.

Since they are all surnamed Jiang, it is a large sect and a small sect. The beauty of clan culture is that the weak eat the strong, the big fish eat the small fish, the clan infighting can be well covered up, the ugly ghosts dress up, and they can also be served on the pork table.

Moreover, Lady JiJun and Lady Yan were both princesses of the State of Lu, most of whom were still the sisters-in-law of Qi Wenjiang, smiling.

After the state of Ji was destroyed, the state of Qi was strengthened, and in order to win over the state of Lu, it was necessary to ration Xu, the newborn daughter of Duke Xiang of Qi, to duke of Luzhuang. The "Biography of the Nations" said that this marriage contract was Wen Jiang La Lang match, in fact, depending on the international situation at that time, the choice of duchess Lu Zhuang was originally two, the State of Qi, or the Zhou royal family. At that time, the Zhou royal family was just a flower archway, not to mention that there might not be a suitable Wang Ji, and even if there was, Duke Lu Zhuang could not refuse the request of the State of Qi.

This has nothing to do with the sarcastic "mother and fatherless, forget relatives and revenge", it is simply impossible to sell yourself.

Then again, Princess Qi is still swaddled, not to mention that she may not be raised, even if she can get married after sixteen years, will Qi Xianggong still be alive? Lu Zhuanggong should get married, maybe it is also a "drag" decision.

Ji Guo was destroyed, Lu Guo and Zheng Guo were on their knees, and Qi Xianggong looked at his neighbors, and only Wei Guo was still barely standing. Stand well, stand just for him to lie down. Wei Guo bullied Xiang Gong's eldest nephew, and this vendetta could not fail to repay. In the eighth year of King Zhuang of Zhou, Qi Xianggong sent troops to attack and defend.

When Wei Junqianmu looked at it, all the surrounding countries followed the Qi state and shouted 666, and there was no way to ask for help, so they had to go to Zhou Tianzi to be anxious. What can Zhou Tianzi do? I couldn't fight and fight, barely sent troops, and sure enough, I lost a lot. Duke Xiang of Qi exiled Qianmu and made his own nephew Gongzi Shuo, who was the one who killed his two brothers in the previous article.

The Qi army returned to China after a great victory, and in order to guard against the Zhou royal family, Xiang Gong ordered Lian to be called a general and stationed on the frontier. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the nobles did not pay taxes, but paid blood taxes, that is, to lead private armies and prepare their own grain and grass weapons to fight for the monarch, as an obligation. But the obligation is not indefinite, and there is a time limit for a year of military service, beyond which the army will either be disbanded and returned home, or the monarch will pay grain and grass and rewards, which is equivalent to employment.

This is very similar to medieval Europe.

In short, Qi Xianggong left a company name, Guan Zhi's father led the army to garrison, and about one year "when the melon is ripe in the next year, send someone to replace Ru", which is the origin of the "covenant of melon ripening". Of course, the army led by the two men was not the standing army of the State of Qi, there was no standing army at that time, but a clan soldier, that is, the soldiers of the two clans themselves, who were farmers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime. In addition to the sergeant, there are also a multiplication of auxiliaries. It is equivalent to pulling the prime-aged men in the two clan territories out for a year, and basically their own production activities do not exist.

This year stationed, the two are really out of the blood. And why did Lian Claim to be willing to accept this condition, because his sister was very promising to become the heir of the monarch, at least Qi Xianggong must have given such a hint.

However, empty mouth white teeth can not be used as evidence. Qi Xianggong made a promise lightly, and then casually ignored it. Even the two of them waited for a year, neither seeing Lady Li's edict nor the order to change the guard, but only seeing the lord's brothers and sisters flying. Lian Zhi immediately became angry and said, "You stinky cub breed, you want to use our brothers and sisters as shovels?" Oh wow, think of the beauty of yo! That is, he united with Guan Zhi's father and planned to raise an army to "Qin Wang".

In November, King Xianggong of Zhou encountered a strange encounter on the way to hunting, and said that the late prince Peng Sheng appeared at the hunting ground, which frightened Xianggong and injured him. This is again the old plan of King Xuan of Zhou to unjustly kill the doctor Du Bo. Excluding the gods and ghosts inherent in "The Legend of the Nations", it may not be that they are even called bribes and subordinates, and deliberately play ghosts to scare Xianggong.

Qi Xianggong was wounded and returned to the palace to recuperate, and that night, the rebels besieged the palace and took advantage of the night to enter, and Qi Xianggong died in the midst of the rebellion.

Duke Xiang of Qi reigned for five years. It is a very contradictory task to destroy the country, to subjugate the neighbors, to be selfish, and to overflow with ugliness. However, he made the State of Qi an enemy of the whole world politically, and could not be regarded as a qualified monarch.
