Bai Qi was an outstanding military figure in the Warring States period of China, a famous general of the Qin State, and one of the representative figures of the warrior family, and he never lost a battle in his life. The god of war Bai Qi also has another title of "Eastern Killing God", Bai Qi's killing god origin is about his personal way of fighting, his fighting method is not mainly to siege the city, it is mainly to annihilate the enemy, even if the enemy surrenders, he must also kill, Bai Qi's idea is: non-my race, its heart must be different.

Bai Qi's personal career experienced more than 70 battles, Bai Qi led an army to break the coalition army at Huayang (present-day Xinzhengbei, Henan), captured the three generals of Han, Zhao, and Wei, and beheaded 130,000 people. He also engaged the Zhao general Jia Yan and drowned 20,000 Zhao pawns.

In the forty-third year of King Zhaoxiang of Qin (265 BC), Bai Qi attacked the Korean city of Xincheng, captured five cities, and beheaded 50,000 people. Among them, the Battle of Changping was a battle in which Bai Qi had the "killing god", mainly because he killed all 400,000 Zhao Guo's pawns in the Battle of Changping.

Li Mu was an outstanding military figure in the Warring States period, a famous general of the Zhao State, and Li Mu's life can be divided into two parts: the former part is to fight against the Xiongnu; Later, it was mainly to resist the Qin state.

Li Mu did not taste defeat in battles large and small. Li Mu was the only good general of the Zhao State at the end of the Warring States period, and was known as "Li Mu died, Zhao Guo died", which shows how important Li Mu's weight is.

Li Mu was mainly famous for resisting the Xiongnu, annihilating more than 100,000 Xiongnu horses, so that for the next ten years the Xiongnu did not dare to invade the Zhao state. Among them, Li Mu was most famous for his few victories and great defeats to the Qin army in the Battle of Yi'an.

Lian Po was a famous general of the State of Zhao, he had never been defeated in his life, in his decades he fought for Zhao in many places, annihilated hundreds of thousands of enemies, and was known to be able to change his mistakes (the most famous of which was "bearing the sin of Jing"), and his life, as Sima Guang said: "Lian Po's use or not is actually related to the survival of the Zhao State." This can really be used for future generations. ”

Wang Qi was a famous general of the Qin state, who followed the Qin king Yingzheng in his early years. Wang Qi first attacked the capital of the Zhao state of Handan, and then swept away the Three Jin regions, making great contributions to the unification of the Six Kingdoms of the Qin State, and was later known as the Warring States God of War by the people along with Bai Qi, Li Mu, and Lian Po.
