"Spring and Autumn" Strange Thing 15 - Xiao Qiang, the immortal Xiao Qiang, the longest-lived princely state

First of all, let's examine everyone's question, there are so many countries in the Spring and Autumn Warring States, which one is the longest-lived?

Qin: 770 BC - 207 BC, died 563 years ago.

Week: 1046 BC – 256 BC, died 790 BC. (Unknown before getting the world, ignored)

Wei: 1117 BC - 209 BC, died in 907 years.

Surprised? Surprised? It turned out that the longest-lived person was not the Zhou of the Heavenly Son, nor the Qin who unified the Six Kingdoms, but a small country that looked inconspicuous- Wei. So what did weiguo rely on to stand in the chaotic world and survive the long years of nearly a thousand years? Maybe today's story will inspire you a little.

"Spring and Autumn" Strange Thing 15 - Xiao Qiang, the immortal Xiao Qiang, the longest-lived princely state

Peng Zuye's life expectancy was eight hundred, and he did not have the longevity of Wei Guo

Wei Chenggong, the 21st monarch of the Wei Dynasty, was named Zheng, and he could also be called Wei Zheng. Due to the fact that the front Wei Guo had a love crane, Wei Yigong, the Wei Guo was almost destroyed by the Di people. Relying on the favor of the hegemonic State of Qi at that time, it was barely able to restore the country. After two generations of hard work by Wei Chenggong's great-uncle and Wei Chenggong's father, the national strength barely recovered to a second-rate and a half-rate level. When Duke Wei Chenggong succeeded to the throne in 634 BC. The first overlord, Duke Huan of Qi, had died, and the scenery of the State of Qi was gone. Song Xianggong of the State of Song wanted to succeed him as the overlord, but his strength was not repaired by the State of Chu. And the Jin Wengong of the Jin Dynasty had just ascended to the throne, and his ass was not hot yet, and he was still far away from the overlord throne. At this time in the world, who will be the next overlord is the most important and difficult question. For small countries, there is no need to calculate, what is delicious and eat is finished. For a second-rate country like Weiguo, it is necessary to choose a side, and once it is in the wrong team, the death phase may be very ugly.

Wei Guo's position is not much stronger than Zheng's, and the choice of side is very important

On the first question, Wei Chenggong did it wrong.

In that year's civil unrest in Jin, Gongzi fled with a heavy ear. When passing through the Cao Kingdom, the King of the State of Cao secretly took a bath with his ears, and when passing through the Wei Kingdom, Wei Chenggong and his father Wei Wengong did not take this lost dog seriously, forcing the heavy ear to beg for food with the people on the side of the road, and he was humiliated.

Wei Wengong did not accept the heavy ear and almost starved the future overlord to death

Unexpectedly, when the ear was heavy later, he actually ascended to the throne of the Jin monarch in middle age. At this time, the Jin state had been accumulating power for many years and had the ambition to dominate the world. From a public point of view, the Jin state is hegemonic, and it is necessary to kill two chickens to show the monkeys in the world; privately speaking, Cao Wei and the two countries do not respect the ears and must take revenge.

The majestic Jin Wengong was also a master who would repay his eyes

So in 632 BC, the State of Jin wrote a letter to Duke Wei Chenggong, asking him to lend the road to the State of Jin so that the Army of the State of Jin could pass through to attack the State of Cao. Wei Chenggong took a look at the letter and inhaled a cool breath. Borrowing the road, jin guo is definitely going to play another trick of false dao and destroying the yu; without borrowing, jin guo will turn around and fight against Wei guo even more. Borrowing is death, not borrowing is also death, then fight. On the one hand, Wei Guo refused jin guo's request to borrow a road, and on the other hand, he seized the time to move closer to the chu state. But for Wei Guo, God was too far away, and Jin Guo was too close. The Jin army took a detour and violently attacked Cao Guo, capturing Cao Guojun back, and on the way another heavy punch hit Wei Guo and took the five deer of Wei Guo.

For Wei Guo, Jin Guo was too close

When Wei Chenggong saw this situation, he quickly turned around and made overtures to Jin Guo. Disrespecting you is my father's old bastard, it has nothing to do with me, I am really bitter not to borrow the road as a brother. However, Jin Wengong refused to reconcile with Wei guo on the spot.

The doctors who defended the country were afraid, and in order to please the Jin state, they all discussed that they should arrest the monarch and sacrifice it to the Jin state (li collapsed and happy). Wei Chenggong's vision is not good, but his sense of smell is very sensitive. Seeing that the country could not continue, he ran to the border not far from the Song state and let his younger brother Shu Qi and the chancellor Yuan Kui (xuan3) stay in the capital to rule instead of him.

At this time, the famous Battle of Chengpu broke out in the Jin and Chu states. Wei Chenggong's heart mentioned the root of the tongue. If the Chu state wins, then he will turn over and immediately become a wise leader and a wise leader of the defending country. If the Jin Dynasty wins, it will basically be a disaster. Unfortunately, the Chu state was defeated. Wei Chenggong looked at it, but don't pull it, quickly ran away, and ran all the way south to the territory of Chen Guo, the younger brother of the Chu Kingdom, before stopping.

The State of Jin defeated the State of Chu at the weiguo city of Pu, and the princes of the world were terrified

Generally speaking, those who are hated by the overlords and go into exile in other countries should never have a chance to resurrect. But who is Wei Chenggong? He was the most vital monarch in the Immortal Kingdom. So Wei Chenggong will definitely come back. So how did Wei Chenggong later counterattack and return to China and continue to be the boss? Please continue to read the story of Wei Chenggong that Liu Kanshan told you.
