In fact, it is impossible to assassinate the king of Qin, and Jing Ke's failure is almost inevitable. At that time, the Yan army was under siege and the situation was critical. Taizi Dan came up with the idea of stabbing the king of Qin, and he wanted to dial four or two thousand pounds. It is not easy to assassinate the heavily guarded king of Qin. At that time, Tian Guang, a hero of Yan State, recommended Jing Ke to Taizi Dan, saying that this senior was good, learned from superior people and had superb skills.
After that, Taizi Dan talked to Jing Ke about it. This matter is the top secret of the state. If one person knows, it will be more dangerous. Tian Guang said it would be bad if I knew. There were only two participants in this incident, and then he drew his sword and committed suicide. At that time, Qin had reached the border of Yan, and the country was in trouble, and every man was responsible. For the sake of national security, Tian Guang is willing to die.
Superb skill
Before that, Jing Ke liked reading and fencing. On the trip, he met a knight named Nie Gai. Nie Gai may be an expert in fencing. Jing Ke discussed fencing with him, but later they parted ways. According to historical records, Jing Ke likes to travel around, practice fencing and make friends by reading, but there is no record about his fencing.
This kind of assassination, which is of great importance, requires not only boldness, but also prudence, and the most important thing is superb skills. The second-rate level is to deliver the head. Judging from the performance of the subsequent assassination, Jing Ke's psychological quality is not good, or his swordsmanship is not a little different from his imagination. This is not without warning. Facing Prince Taizi's sincere entrustment, Jing Ke replied: This is a national event, and my ability is insufficient, so I may not be able to shoulder this heavy responsibility.
