Today, let's take a look at what happened to King Zhao of Qin behind the idiom story.

Learn the bunt of all ethnic groups in the history of China, and also learn their martial arts such as horse riding and archery.

a battle between a snipe and clam

Benefit from the quarrel between the two sides

Gongzi Ji was originally a hostage of Yan State and was able to return to the throne of Qin State. In addition to his uncle Wei Ran's careful management, he has to thank one person for his strong support, and that is the famous King Wuling of Zhao. Zhao is in the land of four wars, and nomadic tribes in the north, such as Loufan, often harass the border. In the process of confronting nomadic tribes, King Wuling of Zhao summed up the advantages of the enemy's light clothing and good riding and shooting, so he carried out reforms throughout the country to make Zhao people wear Hu clothes and learn to ride and shoot. After the reform of riding and shooting, Zhao's military strength was greatly enhanced, Zhongshan was destroyed, Lou Fan was defeated, and the territory of Zhao, the seven heroes of the Warring States, was laid.

However, this talented Zhao Wang could think of fostering Qin He and opening up a good diplomatic environment for Zhao, but he could not solve the problem of his own heir, and finally died of this hidden danger. First, King Wuling of Zhao abandoned his eldest son because he favored Wu Wa, abolished the chapter of the eldest son, and changed Wu Wa's son to a prince. King Wuling of Zhao, in his forties, was in his prime, and simply gave way to Prince He for King Huiwen of Zhao, who claimed to be his father and devoted himself to the military.

On one occasion, King Huiwen of Zhao wanted to attack Yan. When Su Dai found out, he went to persuade the prince of Zhao. He told the king of Zhao such a fable: When I passed Yishui, I saw a clam open its shell and bask in the sun. Suddenly, a snipe stuck out its mouth and pecked at the clam. The clam quickly put away its shell and caught the snipe's long mouth. Both sides refused to relax, and finally the old man caught the snipe and clam together. Now that Zhao is attacking Yan, the two countries are at loggerheads, just like snipes and mussels. In the end, Qin will benefit, and Qin's is a fisherman!

Look, Wang has appeared again!

Friends who are ready to die for each other

When it comes to Zhao Huiwen, you have to mention Cui. According to Historical Records, "When Zhao Huiwen became king, he won Chu and Shi Bi. Qin Wen learned that he was willing to invite foreigners with fifteen cities. " Qin actually said that he would exchange fifteen cities for Cui, which is the origin of the idiom "priceless".

Zhao sent a brave and resourceful famous diplomat, Lin Xiangru. The story of how he denounced King Zhao of Qin to his face and sent someone back to Zhao privately is well known to all women and children.

Later, Wang and Zhao Huiwen met in Mianchi, and Lin Xiangru was fearless, forcing the king of Qin to slap the king of Zhao, defeating the trick of humiliating the king of Zhao and saving Zhao and Zhao's face. Thanks to Zhao's return, Lin Xiangru became a doctor. After Mianchi's meeting, Lin Xiangru was naturally promoted and was worshipped as Shangqing.

How could Lian Po be missing from Lin Xiangru's story? Lian Po was worshipped as Shangqing for his meritorious military service. He looked down on Lin Xiangru, a eunuch. Now, with only one mouth, Lin Xiangru is on an equal footing with him. Later, the old general learned that Lin Xiangru didn't share his knowledge for the sake of Zhao's political stability and harmony, so he woke up and brought Vitex negundo with bare arms to make amends to Lin Xiangru. The two became friends.

However, the story of making peace is a bit imprecise. Lin Xiangru is not in Zhao's position, but there is another person in the position, that is Zhao Sheng, one of the four sons of the Warring States Period. Zhao Sheng made three appearances and was reset three times during the reign of King Zhao and Zhao of Huiwen.

Can't see the bigger problem

Blinded by greed

Ping Yuanjun Zhao Sheng, the son of King Wuling of Zhao, was listed as one of the four sons of the Warring States because of his numerous visitors. On the one hand, he has a strong desire for talents and a good eye; On the other hand, historians' evaluation of Ping Yuanjun's personal political achievements is derogatory. "Ping Yuanjun, a good son in troubled times, didn't see the overall situation." Especially in the battle of Changping, "as the saying goes,' profit makes the mind faint.'" Greed for heresy led to Zhao falling into Changping and several deaths in Handan. ".

The fuse of the battle of Changping was Shangdang, which originally belonged to South Korea, but was seized by Qin. South Korea knew that it couldn't be defeated, so it simply gave the land to Qin, but the commander of Shangdang County couldn't swallow this tone and decided to give Shangdang County to Zhao privately. The purpose is to seduce Zhao, who cut off the peace of Qin, so Qin and Zhao must be at odds, and Zhao and Han can join hands against Qin.

At this time, the prince of Zhao was Zhao Haoqi Cheng Xiao, the son of Zhao Huiwen. He consulted with the minister about countermeasures. It was Ping Yuanjun who advocated taking Shangdang County. After all, he can get a large piece of land without a single soldier, which is too cheap to pick up. And if Zhao doesn't take this land, Qin won't hit you? If Qin gains the power of the Party, it will go up a storey still higher. You don't hit anyone you want, and you don't need an excuse.

abide by the law

Give up a brave victory

Before the battle of Changping, I had to talk about Zhao She, because Zhao Kuo, the coach sent by Lian Po, was later replaced by Zhao, the son of Zhao She.

Zhao She was exiled to the State of Yan for his crimes, where he worked as Gu Wei, and later returned to his hometown and became a tax collector. Coincides with the government steward servant tax evasion, Zhao She cut nine people, in order to this problem, very anxious to kill him to vent their anger. Zhao She said to Ping Yuanjun: "If the monarch is expensive, loyalty is equal to the law; If he is equal to the law, he will be strong; If he is strong, he is Zhao Gu; If the monarch is a noble relative, is he lighter than the evil in the world? " This is how the idiom "obeying the law" comes from.

Ping Yuanjun was impressed by Zhao She's knowledge and recommended him to the Prince of Zhao. Zhao She not only has an economic mind, which enriches Zhao's wealth, but also makes him an excellent soldier. In 269 BC, Zhao Haoqi, the state of Qin, sent troops to attack Zhao Gui. King Zhao Huiwen consulted with Lian Po and Le Cheng, and both generals felt that there was little chance of winning. Only Zhao She stood up and said, "The road is long, but it is too narrow. Two rats fight in the hole, and the brave one wins." This sentence later evolved into "the brave win in the narrow road."

Later, Zhao She defeated Qin Jun and won the title of "Ma Fujun".

Just talk on paper-be an armchair strategist

blood flows like a river

spare no effort

shilly-shally

Zhao cut peace and get the place of the party. How can Zhao Haoqi of Qin stop there? One word: fight. By the time of the battle of Changping, Zhao She was dead, Lian Po had been defending for many years, and Zhao was exhausted. Zhao Wangbing took risks and replaced Lian Po with Zhao Kuo, who advocated taking the initiative, hoping to make a quick decision and solve the dilemma of Zhao's poor COFCO.

It is a bit unfair to say that Zhao Kuo is "an armchair strategist". At that time, the military books of the Warring States period should be based on bamboo slips, and paper has not been popularized. Besides, Zhao's failure was not due to Zhao Kuo's incompetence. In the upper echelons of Zhao, the tendency of quick decision prevailed. Anyway, Zhao Kuo's first show ended in his own death, and all 450,000 soldiers of Zhao died.

There is an idiom in the history books that "more than 400,000 people were killed in vain, and rivers of blood were boiling like thunder", which was later called "rivers of blood".

After the battle of Changping, it was Qin's turn to be awkward. He advocated taking Handan at high altitude and letting Zhao cede territory for peace. Zhao Junchen analyzed that "Qin attacked me and spared no effort, and I will be tired." The battle of Changping was a terrible victory for Qin, who spared no effort to attack Zhao, and Qin himself was "half-dead, and his family was surrounded by walls", so Zhao suddenly repented and refused to cede land.

Of course, King Qin Zhao was very angry and sent troops to surround Handan, the capital of Zhao. Wei Xiang suggested that Zhao send an envoy to be the emperor, and Qin Bixi would leave, but he hesitated.

Make friends with distant countries and attack nearby countries at the same time.

Give him an inch and he will get a yard.

Seek revenge for the smallest injustice

Split a wicker a hundred paces away.

Every shot hit the target.

Everything that has been achieved is ruined.

Wei ren and Fan Ju were highly valued by Zhao Haoqi of Qin State. He put forward the diplomatic strategy of "making friends far and attacking near" to Zhao Haoqi: "Making friends far and attacking near is better than making friends far. If you get an inch, you will be king's inch, and if you get a ruler, you will be king's ruler. " Make friends with distant countries, such as Yan and Qi, and make bad friends with neighboring countries, such as Korea, Zhao and Wei, and gradually occupy the territory of neighboring countries.

Fan Ju is a man with a grudge. When he was in Wei, after being insulted, he asked Wei to hand over his head, or he sent his troops to attack. Wei Qi turned to Ping Yuanjun, the fourth son of the Warring States Period, and Xinlingjun for help. In order to mediate this matter, he was even detained by Qin. However, his arm never twisted his thigh, and Wei Qi committed suicide in despair.

Bai Qi, the Qin God of War who was at odds with him, was slandered because of his conflict with him, and finally committed suicide. Sima Qian commented on Fan Ju's "revenge resentment".

In the 14th year of Qin and Zhao Haoqi, Wei Jun was defeated by Tian Lei in the Battle of Yi Que, and 240,000 people were beheaded. Su Li is the lobbyist of Zhou Wang, hoping to stop Tian Lei when he is too good. Take Yang, the sharpshooter of Chu State, as an example, and say that he hits the target in every shot. If he can't hit the target in every shot, he won't fight. If he misses, it will be in vain. These words didn't stop Tian Lei's pace, but they also indicated the end of Tian Lei.

Stealing symbols to save Zhao

Provide their own services

Small and soft tongue-eloquent/easy/glib/ready-made/silver tongue

One word is more valuable than nine tripods-a person's words carry a lot of weight.

Ping Yuanjun and Wei Xinlingjun belong to the Four Childes of the Warring States Period, and their wives are Xinlingjun's sisters. When someone besieged Handan, Wei sent a general, but he was afraid to save Zhao. Wei Wuji, the king of Xinling, poached Wang Wei's favorite concubine, stole the military symbol, and personally led the army to lift the siege of Handan.

Xin saved Zhao, and he was not idle. He sent a mission to Chu for help, and the people volunteered to go with him. Originally, Ping Yuanjun had no impression of Mao Sui, and he still looked down on him. When he volunteered, he described himself as an awl in his bag and immediately stood out.

Sure enough, after Mao Suixiao's interests and arguments, the king of Chu agreed to save Zhao. Therefore, praising "Mr. Mao's three-inch golden tongue is better than a million-dollar teacher" and "Zhao is more important than Jiuding Road" all these idioms are about Mao Sui.

Crow like a rooster and scratch like a dog ―― become mean or mean.

Shake the pillow, have a good sleep and don't worry about any interference-sit back and relax.

Meng Changjun, one of the Four Childes of the Warring States Period, is one of the people with the most idiom stories known by Qin and Zhao Haoqi. Meng Changjun was sent to Qin, and Zhao Haoqi of Qin appreciated him as prime minister. However, the people under the king of Qin remonstrated that it was impossible for the noble family of Qi to really work for Qin. You'd better kill Meng Changjun to avoid future trouble.

Meng Changjun guests are good at drilling dog holes. He stole the fox white skin that Meng Changjun gave Zhao Haoqi, the king of Qin, and gave it to Wang Zhongji of Qin Zhao, asking her to put in a good word in front of the king of Qin. Meng Changjun and his party managed to escape, but they were soon discovered by Zhao Haoqi of Qin State, and sent people to hunt them down. When they fled to Hangu Pass, it was still before dawn, but the city gate didn't open until the cock crowed at dawn. Another diner in Meng Changjun pretended to be a chicken and tricked them into opening the gate, so that they could escape from danger.

Meng Changjun's public servants steal more than chickens call dogs. There is also a civil servant, Feng Xuan, who initially collected debts for Meng Changjun in the fief. As a result, instead of collecting accounts receivable, he burned those deeds. After the King of Qi was deposed, Meng Changjun returned to the fief. As a result, halfway through, he thanked the fief residents who were exempted from debts in Meng Changjun and welcomed him. At this moment, he realized that Feng Xuan, a public guest, bought the hearts and minds of the people for him with money.

Feng Xuan said to Meng Changjun, "You should avoid the dead ear of a sly rabbit. Today you have a cave, and you lie without a high pillow. Please dig two holes for you. " So he went to Wei to promote talents, and Wang Wei sent people to send gifts and invited them as photos; Later, the King of Qi learned that Wei wanted to dig this poacher, and also sent someone to ask Meng Changjun to reply. Feng Xuan also suggested that Meng Changjun ask for the sacrificial vessels of the former king in the fief, and establish the ancestral temple. Meng Changjun's fief, originally on the Qi-Chu border, was a three-no-area that the King of Qi did not want to pay attention to. Now, due to the ancestral temple of the late king, when Chu attacked this place, the king of Qi could no longer stand by and watch. At this time, Feng Xuan said to Meng Changjun: "The three caves have been sealed, so you can sit back and relax."

A battle between two tigers ―― a battle between two great powers.

better late than never

Stay away from worldly disputes

Besides Zhao, there is also a Chu State bullied by Zhao Haoqi, the State of Qin. When Chu Huaiwang was detained in the State of Qin, Huang Xie, one of the four sons of the Warring States, was afraid that the State of Qin would take the opportunity to attack the State of Chu, and wrote to Zhao Haoqi of the State of Qin, saying, "All Mo Qiang in the world is in Qin Chu. Now I hear that the king is going to attack Chu, and it is still a struggle between two tigers. It is better to be Chu than to be a dog. " When two tigers compete, there will be injuries, but when the time comes, it will be cheaper. Qin Zhaowang agreed. However, it can only play a temporary role, and Chu was not spared in the end.

Chu Huaiwang died in the state of Qin, and Wang Xiang, the son of Wang Huai, was "interested in the goddess". He is also related to several idiom stories.

When Qin attacked Chu State, including Yan State, Wu State, Shangcai State and Chen State, Zhuang Xin said to King Xiang of Chu, "It is not too late to mend." He also said that dragonflies, orioles, orioles and even Cai Hou all feel that they live in peace with others, but in the cruel reality, they have all become the targets of others. With Zhuang Xin's support, Chu was able to recover some of its lost land.

However, the situation has only improved temporarily.

The people's life is unbearable.

persistent

According to the "Warring States Policy", during the twenty years of King Xiang of Chu, Chu was irretrievably reduced to the point where "the people are not living, and the clan is not living", and the word "the people are not living" originated from this sentence.

In the twenty-first year of King Xiang, Li Qi captured the capital of Chu. Qu Yuan, a great poet, said that "I am alone in the turbid water in the world, and everyone is drunk, so I wake up alone", "An Neng is white, but he is covered with worldly dust", so he threw himself into the river to be martyred, "Although he died nine times without regret, his heart is still kind".

Qin Zhaowang's black history, in which his successor beheaded about one million soldiers from other countries together with Tian Lei, was once again written down with a heavy stroke-indirectly forcing the great poet Qu Yuan to death.

Let's just say that the cruel and shameless "King of Qin" in our impression is almost all him, not the famous Ying Zheng. I wonder how many pots Ying Zheng carried for his great grandfather!

Hope to adopt!
