1. In written form
During the Warring States Period, Zhao Kuo, the son of Zhao She, a famous soldier of the State of Zhao, studied the art of war when he was young, and no one in the world could beat him. Only his father thinks that he is "boastful and difficult to entrust with heavy responsibilities". Later, the prince of Zhao refused to listen to advice and insisted that Zhao Kuo replace Lian Po as the general of Zhao. As a result, in the battle of Changping, Zhao Kuo only knew the art of war and was inflexible. Zhao was defeated and never recovered.
2. Song Huizong mistook Guo Jing.
1 126, nomads from the border city were besieged, and Guo Jing pretended to be able to apply "Liu Jiafa" and captured nomads from the city with 7777 men to repel the enemy. Hui Zong was convinced of this, so he was awarded a palace post and gave tens of thousands of gold and silk. The soldiers recruited by Guo Jing are street hooligans, and they flaunt that one day they will send 300 people to Yinshan (now Yin Da, Inner Mongolia). When Bianjing Xuanhua Gate opened, Guo Jing sat on the tower and made the "Liu Jia" method. As a result, nomads from the army defeated his soldiers, and soon Huizong and other royal families were taken away.
3. After Shu, Meng Changjun made mistakes in employing people and died in the wrong country.
Wang Zhaoyuan, a gangster, gained a high position by flattering Meng Changjun of Shu, but he was not satisfied. In the second year of Song Taizu's reign, he persuaded Meng Changjun to send messengers to contact the Northern Han Dynasty, and * * * sent troops to destroy the Song Dynasty. Meng Changjun actually agreed. Later, because the emissary defected to the Song Dynasty on the way, he decided to destroy Shu. The Song Dynasty sent 60,000 cavalry to attack Shu. When Meng Changjun heard about this, he ordered Wang Zhaoyuan to take command of the southwest camp, led the troops to refuse to fight, and said to Wang Zhaoyuan, "Today, you called me, and you are willing to make contributions to me!
"Zhao-yuan wang is still very arrogant at this time, with raiders as his own responsibility, starting from Chengdu, Meng Changjun ordered Prime Minister Li Hao to wait outside the city. Zhao Yuan has iron in his hand. If he commands, he is better than himself and Zhuge Liang. When he was drunk, he shouted to Hao, "I came here not only to defeat the enemy." I should take these 20,000 or 30,000 carvings and take a picture of the Central Plains! " As a result, Zhao was defeated in the third world war and fled back in a mess.
4. Qi Huangong used vertical Diao, elegant, childe to prescribe.
Qi Huangong became increasingly groggy in his later years, and he was very fond of Yi Ya, Fang Zi, Vertical Diao and other henchmen. When Guan Zhong was alive, he and Qi Huangong named Zhao Gong Jr. Prince. Later, Guan Zhong died, and Huan Gong, with the encouragement of Yi Ya, made Wu Zhe a prince. After Qi Huangong's death, Yi Ya and Vertical Carving eradicated dissidents, and instead of bullying, they made the son Qi Jun.
Seeing that there was no hope of inheriting the throne, the prince fled from Qi to Song. The other sons attacked each other and killed each other without cheating the new king. Because Qi Huangong's sons attacked and killed each other for the throne, the palace was empty, and no one had the heart to take care of the dead Qi Huangong. As a result, Huan Gong's body was parked in bed for 67 days, and the maggots bred by the corruption of the body even climbed out of the door. Qi Huangong's body was put in a coffin until he ascended the throne.
