"Daliangzao", which is the highest title in the "seventeenth-rank knighthood system" implemented by the Qin State since the Shang martingale transformation law, is also the sixteenth-rank knighthood in the "twentieth grade knighthood system" that was later formed.
In our impression, "Daliangzao" is a high-level official position and senior title of the Qin State, and throughout the history of the Qin State, it seems that only Shang Martingale and Bai Qi have served as "Daliangzao".
In fact, there are many people in the Qin State who have been enfeoffed with the title of Great Liang, the most famous of which are Shang Martin, who presided over the change of law in the Qin State, Bai Qi, who had made great achievements in battle, and Zhang Yi's lifelong opponent, Gongsun Yan.
Speaking of this, some students will have doubts, Zhang Yi's lifelong opponent is not Su Qin, how did he become a Gongsun Yan who has not heard much of it?
I also ask these students to listen to the ancient and modern stories.
To refer to Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan together, this also begins with Mencius's disciple Jing Chun, who once said, "Aren't Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi sincere and big husbands?" Angry and fearful, the world is extinguished. ”
For Zhang Yi's opponent is Su Qin or Gongsun Yan, this has actually been debated in history, but from the historical data unearthed in recent years, Su Qin died in 284 BC, and Zhang Yi died in 310 BC, the main activity of the two is nearly thirty years apart, Zhang Yi was in the storm, Su Qin was still a young man, the two of them should not be able to become opponents, but once served as the Great Liangzhuo of the Qin State, and then served as Wei Xiang and Han Xiang, single-handedly dominating the "Five Kingdoms Xiang Wang" and "Battle of Repairing Fish" Gongsun Yancai was the one who lived in the same period as Zhang Yi, and their life trajectory was more like a lifelong rival.
Gongsun Yan, a native of the Yin and Jin dynasties of the State of Wei, served in the State of Wei and held the position of Rhinoceros Head, so the world often referred to Gongsun Yan as "Rhinoceros Head". Because he was not reused in the State of Wei, Gongsun Yan left the State of Wei and came to the State of Qin, where he was thirsty for talents, and was worshipped by King Huiwen of Qin as a Great Liangzao, and Gongsun Yan thus became the second Great Liangzao of the State of Qin after Shang Martin.
At this time, the State of Qin had not yet separated the official position from the title, and the Great Liangzhuo of the State of Qin was both a knighthood and an official position, and its authority was equivalent to that of the founding ministers of the nations, and the general government.
After Gongsun Yan served as Daliangzao, he analyzed the general situation of the world to King Huiwen of Qin and proposed that the State of Qin intended to go east, and it was bound to recover the land of Hexi and open the gate of the State of Qin to the east.
In 333 BC, Gongsun Yan personally led an army to attack the State of Wei, and fought a decisive battle with the large army led by the Wei general Long Jia at Hexi, because the State of Wei was lightly hostile, Gongsun Yan soon annihilated the Wei state garrison in Hexi, captured and killed the Wei general Long Jia, forcing King Hui of Wei to have to divide the land and make peace, recognizing the Qin state's rule over the land of Hexi. Among the lands ceded by the State of Wei was Gongsun Yan's hometown, and in order to commend Gongsun Yan's merits and strengthen the rule of the Qin State, the overjoyed King Huiwen of Qin changed the "Yin Jin" with the color of the Three Jins to "Ning Qin" with the meaning of the Qin State.
It is not known whether the blood of the Wei people made Gongsun Yan's heart soften or whether the bribe of King Hui of Wei made Gongsun Yan waver, in short, after this battle, Gongsun Yan gave up the "blueprint" drawn for King Qin Huiwen and wanted to attack the nomads in the northwest, although King Huiwen of Qin had doubts, but out of trust in Gongsun Yan, he did not say much.
However, at this moment, Zhang Yi, who called himself a "disciple of power", entered Qin and pointed out to the point that the strategic policy implemented by Gongsun Yan at this stage was a misguided move of the country, and King Huiwen of Qin slowly alienated Gongsun Yan as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Soon, Gongsun Yan returned to the State of Wei, was worshipped by King Huiwen of Wei as Wei Xiang, and single-handedly led the "Five Kingdoms Xiang King" and several "joint attacks on Qin", including the "Battle of Xiuyu", and stirred up the Warring States together with Zhang Yi...
