Wu Anjun is a knighthood awarded by the emperor to the great meritorious heroes who can determine the country and the country, but it seems to be a talisman, and none of the recipients have a good death.
1. Su Qin
Su Qin and Zhang Yi are students of Guiguzi.
After Su Qin achieved some success, he went to the Qin State, wanting to get an errand in the Qin State, so as to show his strength and realize his ideals and ambitions in the Qin State.
It just so happened that at that time, the thirsty Qin Xiaogong had died, and King Qin Huiwen became the monarch of Qin. After Su Qin arrived in Qin, he persuaded King Qin Huiwen to annex other countries and rule as emperor. At that time, although the Qin State had significantly increased its strength through the Shang Dynasty reform, it did not yet have the strength to have both the six countries and unify the world. At the same time, it happened that King Qin Huiwen had just killed Shang Ying, hated lobbyists, and did not reuse Su Qin.
After it was difficult for Qin to be reused, Su Qin left Qin and went to Yan, Zhao and other countries to promote his own theory of cooperation and persuade the six countries to join forces against Qin. Su Qin's cooperation had a remarkable effect, so that Qin did not dare to go out to attack the Six Kingdoms for 15 years. In order to sabotage Su Qin's strategy of joining forces, Qin began to reuse Zhang Yi, implemented Zhang Yi's theory of Lianheng, and began to try his best to provoke and sabotage the alliance between the six countries.
Su Qin succeeded in persuading the Six Kingdoms to join forces, and after returning to Zhao, he was named Wu Anjun by Zhao Suhou because he had made great contributions to the realization of the Six Nations Alliance.
The six states of Shandong can unite against the Qin state, but the six countries are also in a competitive relationship and there are many contradictions. Coupled with Qin's sowing of discord, the alliance between the six countries finally broke down, and the war of attack and annexation began between the six countries, which allowed Qin to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
The strength of the Yan State is weak, and it has been repeatedly bullied by the Qin State. In order to avoid being destroyed by the Qi State, King Yan Zhao sent Su Qin into Qi and asked Su Qin to persuade the King of Qi Xuan to build a large number of buildings and consume the national strength of the Qi State, so as to attack the Yan State without flaws. During Su Qin's time in the Qi State, he was very favored by the King of Qi, which made the other doctors of the Qi State jealous and began to send people to assassinate Su Qin. After Su Qin was assassinated and seriously injured, in order to catch the murderer, he persuaded the king of Qi to split his car in the city in the name of "helping Yan to engage in anti-intermediary activities in Qi State", and offered a heavy reward for the assassin. The assassin mistakenly believed that he had made a great contribution to Qi by killing Su Qin, and ran to receive the reward, but was caught and executed by the king of Qi.
Second, white
In 293 BC, Han and Wei sent troops to attack Qin. For a time, the people of the Qin State were panicked. King Qin Zhaoxiang also suffered from the lack of talent available. In this context, Wei Ran, the prime minister of Qin, recommended Bai Qi, who was born in the bottom but was good at using soldiers, to King Qin Zhaoxiang. In the Battle of Yique, Bai Qi took advantage of the wait-and-see attitude of the Wei army and the Han army to drag the Han army with a small number of troops, and attacked the Wei army with the main force. After the disastrous defeat of the Wei army, the Han army panicked, and defeated the Han army again in one go, killing 240,000 Han and Wei allied troops, and won the battle of Yique.
After that, King Qin Zhaoxiang began to reuse Bai Qi and let him lead his troops to fight for himself. In 292 BC, King Zhaoxiang of Qin promoted Bai Qi to be the Great Liangzao of Qin and asked him to lead his troops to attack Wei. Bai Qi defeated the Wei army and captured 61 cities of the Wei State. In 278 BC, Bai Qi defeated the Chu army and broke through Yingcheng, the capital of Chu State, and King Zhaoxiang of Qin named Bai Qi as Wu Anjun. In 260 BC, Bai Qi defeated the Zhao army in the Battle of Changping, beheading 450,000 soldiers of the Zhao State, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Zhao State, and also made the Six Kingdoms no longer able to fight against the Qin State, and suffered from "Qinphobia".
After the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi wanted to destroy Zhao in one go, but Fan Ju, the prime minister of Qin, was worried that after Bai Qi destroyed Zhao, he would establish immortal merit and threaten his own position, and after accepting bribes from Zhao, he persuaded King Zhaoxiang of Qin to let Bai Qi withdraw his army. A year later, Qin again sent troops to attack Zhao. Bai Qi was obsessed with the withdrawal of troops. At the same time, he also felt that there was no chance of victory, and was unwilling to lead his troops to attack Zhao. For this reason, Bai Qi offended King Qin Zhaoxiang, he demoted Bai Qi, and finally under the false accusation of Fan Ju, King Qin Zhaoxiang killed Bai Qi.
3. Li Mu
Li Mu, a famous general of Zhao State.
During the Battle of Changping, Zhao lost 450,000 troops, suffered a great loss of vitality, and was no longer able to fight against the Qin army, but under the command of Lian Po, the Zhao army could still deal with the Qin army, so that Qin could not destroy Zhao. During this period, Li Mu guarded the frontier for Zhao and defended against the Xiongnu. Li Mu once designed to defeat the Xiongnu in Yanmen County, killed more than 100,000 Huns, and took the opportunity to destroy the ragged, break the Donghu, and descend the forest Hu, making great achievements for the Zhao State.
In 245 BC, after King Zhao Mourning Xiang became the monarch of Zhao State, he disliked Lian Po's old age and wanted to replace Lian Po with Lecheng. Lian was dissatisfied and ran away from Lecheng, but then he was afraid that King Zhao Mourning Xiang would punish him and fled to Wei. After Lian Po left, Zhao no longer had a famous general to resist the Qin army, and King Zhao Mourning Xiang could only transfer Li Mu back and let him lead his troops to resist the Qin army. In 233 BC, Li Mu defeated the Qin general Huan Qi in the Battle of Fei. In 232 BC, Li Mu defeated the Qin army in the Battle of Fanwu. After two defeats of the Qin army, King Zhao Mourning Xiang named Li Mu as the monarch of An Guo.
In 229 BC, Qin again sent troops to attack Zhao. After the famous generals of the Qin State Wang Jian and Sima Shang could not defeat Li Mu on the battlefield, they used a discordant strategy, and they sent people to bribe Guo Kai, the favorite minister of King Zhao, with a lot of money, so that he framed Li Mu for rebellion, and King Zhao believed it and killed Li Mu.
Li Mu was the last pillar of the Zhao State, and after Li Mu was killed, no one in the Zhao State could resist Wang Qian, and it was quickly destroyed by the tiger and wolf army of the Qin State.
Fourth, Xiang Yan
Xiang Yan, a famous general of the Chu State.
After the state of Zhao was destroyed, King Yingzheng of Qin prepared to let Wang Jian lead his troops to destroy the state of Chu. Wang Jian believed that the state of Chu was a large country and needed 600,000 troops to destroy Chu. An army of 600,000 can destroy Chu or Qin, which makes the King of Qin hesitate. At this time, the young general Li Xin said that he could destroy Chu with 200,000 troops. The king of Qin was very happy, saying that Wang Jian was old, and gave Li Xin 200,000 troops to destroy Chu.
Li Xin and Meng Tianbing split up and invaded the state of Chu.
In 225 BC, Li Xin fought a series of battles all the way, defeated the Chu army, and broke through Yan Ying, the capital of Chu State. Li Xin felt that the destruction of Chu was imminent, and when he went to the city father and Meng Tian round, danger also crept in. Xiang Yan showed weakness to lure the enemy, let Li Xin despise the Chu army, and then followed behind, rested and chased after him for three days and three nights, and suddenly launched an attack on Li Xin, which caught Li Xin off guard, and the Qin army under his command was almost completely annihilated by Xiang Yan.
After Li Xin's army was defeated, King Yingzheng of Qin could only ask Wang Jian to go out of the mountain, give him 600,000 troops, and let Wang Jian go to destroy Chu. After Wang Jian led the army into the Chu State, he did not rush to attack the Chu State and start a decisive battle with Xiang Yan, but stuck to the camp and avoided the battle, so that people could not guess what medicine was sold in his gourd. The two armies confronted each other for a year, and Xiang Yan found that the Qin army was just playing a game of throwing stones and jumping every day, and did not intend to attack the Chu State, which made Xiang Yan relax his vigilance, and he didn't want to spend endless time with the Qin army, so he chose to withdraw his troops.
After Xiang Yan withdrew, Wang Jian ordered the Qin army to attack. The Chu army did not retreat in time, panicked, and finally suffered a crushing defeat to the Qin army, and Xiang Yan was killed in battle.
After Xiang Yan's death, there was no general in the state of Chu who could compete with Wang Qian, and the state of Chu was destroyed by Wang Qian.
