Interference in the Jin Dynasty
In the spring of the second year of King Huan of Zhou (the fifth year of Duke Lu Yin, 718 BC), the Jin state of Qu Wo fengjun Qu Wo Zhuang Bo bribed the King of Zhou Huan to join forces with zheng guo and xing to attack the capital of the Jin state, Yicheng, and the king of Zhou Huan sent the doctors Yin Shi and Wu shi to assist Qu Wo Zhuang Bo. The Jin monarch Marquis of Jin was defeated and fled to Suiyi. In the summer of the same year, the Marquis of Jin died, and Quwo Zhuangbo attacked the Jin state again. Because Quwo Zhuangbo betrayed King Huan of Zhou at that time, in the autumn of the same year, King Huan of Zhou in turn supported the Jin state and sent Duke Yu to lead an army to attack Quwo Zhuangbo, who was defeated and had to flee back to Quwo to defend. King Huan of Zhou made Marquis of Jin, the son of marquis of Jin, a prince.
Rude Zheng Guo
In the third year of King Huan of Zhou (6th year of Duke Yin of Lu, 717 BC), Zheng Zhuanggong, the ruler of the state of Zheng, came to see King Huan of Zhou. This was the first time that Zheng Zhuanggong had met with King Huan of Zhou, and King Huan of Zhou did not treat him with courtesy. The Duke of Zhou said to King Huan of Zhou, "We in the Zhou Dynasty moved east, relying on the Jin and Zheng kingdoms. Treating Zheng Guo in a friendly way to encourage later generations, I am afraid that people will not come, let alone not receive them with courtesy? Zheng Guo will not come to the court again. ”
At the beginning, the Rong people made a pilgrimage to the King of Zhou and sent money to the secretary of state, but Fan Bo did not treat him with courtesy. In the winter of the fourth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (716 BC), King Huan of Zhou sent Fan Bo to visit the kingdom of Lu. When Van Bo returned, the Rong intercepted him in Chuqiu and took him back.
In the spring of the fifth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (8th year of Duke Yin of Lu, 715 BC), Duke Zhengzhuang, resenting King Huan of Zhou for not treating him with courtesy, exchanged Xu Tian (a special field for Zhou Tianzi to sacrifice Mount Tai) with the State of Lu. In the summer of the same year, King Huan of Zhou appointed Gong Ji 's father as a secretary of the Zhou Dynasty.
Visit the country of Lu
In the spring of the sixth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (9th year of Duke Yin of Lu, 714 BC), King Huan of Zhou sent Nanji to visit the state of Lu.
In the spring of the twelfth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (4th year of duke Huan of Lu, 708 BC), King Huan of Zhou sent the zaiguan Qu Bo to visit the state of Lu. In the winter of the same year, King Huan of Zhou joined forces with the State of Qin to besiege the State of Rui and capture the king of the State of Rui, Rui Bowan.
Battle of Tsukiga
In the thirteenth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (5th year of duke Huan of Lu, 707 BC), when Duke Zheng Zhuang was in power as a secretary in the Zhou Dynasty. King Huan of Zhou was not willing to be controlled by Duke Zhengzhuang, so he took away the power of Duke Zhengzhuang, so Duke Zhengzhuang no longer came to the hajj.
In the autumn of the same year, King Huan of Zhou led the princes in a crusade against the State of Zheng, and Zheng Zhuang sent troops to resist. King Huan of Zhou led the Chinese army; Gong Lin father led the right army; Cai Jun and Wei jun belonged to the right army; Zhou Gong Hei led the left army, and Chen Jun belonged to the left army.
Ziyuan of Zheng Guo suggested that Zheng Zhuang use the left phalanx to deal with the Cai army and the Wei army, and the right phalanx to deal with the Chen army, saying: "The Chen state is in turmoil, the people lack the will to fight, if they attack the Chen army first, they will definitely run away." When Zhou Tianzi's army saw this situation, chaos was bound to occur. Cai Guo and the Weiguo army could not support it, and they would definitely rush to flee. At this time, we can concentrate our forces against Zhou Tianzi's Chinese army, and we can succeed. Zheng Zhuanggong obeyed Zi yuan's advice and let Man Bo serve as the commander of the right phalanx, Ji Zhong as the commander of the left phalanx, and Yuan Fan and Gao Qumi led the Chinese army to escort Zheng Zhuanggong, setting up a position called Yuli, with the front biased and the rear Wu, using Wu to make up for the gap of bias. The two sides fought at Qiange (繻葛; northeast of present-day Changge, Henan). Zheng Zhuanggong ordered the left and right sides of the phalanx: "As soon as the big banner is waved, the drum will be beaten and marched." Zheng Guo's army attacked, and Cai, Wei, and Chen fled together, causing chaos in the Zhou army. The Zheng army attacked from both sides, and the Zhou army was eventually defeated. Zheng Guo's blessing hit King Huan of Zhou in the shoulder, and although King Huan of Zhou was wounded, he was still able to command the army. Zhu Nie asked to go after him, and Zheng Zhuanggong said, "A gentleman does not want to deceive people too much, where dare he bully The Son of Heaven?" As long as it can save itself and save the country from danger, this is enough. So Mingjin collected his troops, and King Huan of Zhou fled, known in history as the Battle of Qiangge. On the night of the war, Zheng Zhuanggong sent a priest to comfort King Huan of Zhou and his retinue.
Embrace the Jinjun
In the winter of the fifteenth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (the seventh year of the Duke of Lu Huan, 705 BC), the Duke of Quwo of the Jin Dynasty booby-trapped and killed the Marquis of Jin.
In the winter of the sixteenth year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (8th year of duke Huan of Lu, 704 BC), King Huan of Zhou ordered Yu Zhong to go to the State of Jin and proclaim marquis of Jin, the younger brother of Marquis Of Jin and uncle of Marquis Hou of Jin.
In the eighteenth year of king Huan of Zhou (10th year of the Duke of Lu Huan, 703 BC), Yu Zhong slandered King Huan of Zhou and framed his father. King Huan of Zhou thought that Father Zhan was justified, and Father Zhan then led Zhou Tianzi's army to attack the Kingdom of Yu. In the summer of the same year, Duke Yu fled to the State of Yu.
He died of illness
In March of the twenty-third year of the reign of King Huan of Zhou (15th year of Duke Huan of Lu, 697 BC), King Huan of Zhou became seriously ill, so he summoned Duke Hei of Zhou to come and entrust his beloved young son Prince Ke (Ziyi) to Duke Hei of Zhou, hoping that after the death of Crown Prince Ji Tuo, he would let Prince Ke succeed to the throne. On march 2, King Huan of Zhou died, and his posthumous title was Huan Wang. Crown Prince Ji Tuo succeeded to the throne as King Zhuang of Zhou.
For political initiatives
During the reign of King Huan of Zhou, because of Zheng Guo's merits in supporting the Zhou royal family, he gave the State of Zheng the wendi (southwest of present-day Wen County, Henan Province) located on the north bank of the Yellow River and south of the water, so the territory of the Zhou Dynasty shrank again.
Previously, when the princes died, their sons, after succeeding to the throne and completing the funeral, had to rush to the capital to receive the canonization of Zhou Tianzi in order to obtain legal status. In the eighth year of king Huan of Zhou (the eleventh year of Duke Huan of Lu, 712 BC), Duke Huan of Lu murdered his brother Duke Lu Yin and established himself as a king, not requesting canonization from King Huan of Zhou. Since then, the system of princes being canonized by Zhou Tianzi has been undermined.
