Chapter 4 The Wonderful Han Wangran
In the military pavilion of the Junhou Mansion, a map of the Qin army's attack on Korea has been hung.
Senior General Rong Yi was introducing the current military situation of Qin and South Korea, and finally came to a conclusion.
"Childe, my lords. According to a certain general, if South Korea does not get rescue from other countries this time, this place such as Chengcheng and Yewang will inevitably be lost sooner or later, and then the territory of South Korea will be divided into two by Qin. ”
As he spoke, Rong Yi put the military stick in his hand and immediately pointed it at the Shangdang area of South Korea and knocked it a few times.
"According to a certain general, after the Qin State occupies Shencheng, Yewang and other places, it will inevitably send troops to the party."
The nine people sitting below, Ji Kang, Ju Xin, Zou Yan, Lu Zhonglian, Bo Wang, Wang Shi, Huang Yong, Ji Mao, and Shi Yong, all had heavy faces.
Lu Zhonglian sighed: "Alas! This Han Wangran! It's self-inflicted! ”
If it is said that in the history of the Warring States period in Ji Kang's previous life, the most ridiculous king, if Han Ran, the current reigning king of Han, said that he was the second, no one else dared to say that he was the first.
When Han Ran first ascended the throne as the king of Han, the national strength of South Korea at this time had been greatly weakened in the era of his father King Han Li.
In 293 BC, in the third year of King Han Li, King Han Li sent his general Gongsun Xi to lead the armies of the Zhou Dynasty and the Wei State to attack the Qin State. The Qin army, under the leadership of the general Bai Qi, defeated the allied army of 240,000 at Yique and captured Gongsun Xi, which is known as the Battle of Yique in history.
This battle made the generals of the Qin State famous in one fell swoop.
In 291 BC, in the fifth year of King Han Li, the Qin State sent the general Bai Qi to attack Korea and seize the Wandi of Korea.
In 290 BC, in the sixth year of King Han Li, King Han Li ceded 200 li of land around Wusui to Qin.
In 286 BC, in the tenth year of King Han Li, the Qin army, led by the general Bai Qi, defeated the Han army at Xiashan.
At this time, South Korea has been beaten by Qin Wang Yingji and General Bai Qi, these two people are afraid. wanted to curry favor with Qin, Han Wangran's father, King Han Li, proposed to meet with King Qin Zhaoxiang to talk about the friendship between the two countries.
But at this moment, King Yingji of Qin ignored King Han Li at all, saying that it was okay to meet, but I don't like Qi now, you have to help me send troops to fight Qi State, let's meet again, what I didn't expect was that King Han Li actually agreed.
In 284 BC, in the twelfth year of King Han Li, King Han Li sent troops to help Qin attack Qi. The state of Qi was defeated, and the king of Qi fled abroad.
In 275 BC, the twenty-first year of King Han Li, the Xiangguo of Qin and the Marquis of Wei Ran attacked Wei.
At this time, King Han Li had already realized that if the Qin State was allowed to go on like this, Korea would be destroyed, so he sent the general Storm Hao to lead the army to rescue the Wei State.
However, the Han army led by Qin Prime Minister Wei Ran was defeated by Storm Hao, 40,000 people were killed, and the general Storm Hao fled to Kaifeng.
When Han Ran's father, King Han Li, died, he had already realized that the Qin State was the greatest threat to Korea. Before he died, he gave Han Ran a thousand explanations and instructions, asking him to befriend Zhao and Wei and fight against Qin.
But after Han Ran ascended the throne, he immediately forgot his father's explanation. Don't think of a way to revitalize Korea, unite with Zhao Wei and other countries to fight against Qin. On the contrary, in the first year after ascending the throne, he sent troops to attack the Yan Kingdom, which was thousands of miles away, and did not want to return defeated.
This made Ji Kang's grandfather, King Wu Cheng, very annoyed, I provoked you to recruit you! You've come so far to hit me. And Qin took the opportunity to form an alliance with Yan and told Yan Guo, don't be afraid! Let's form an alliance, if South Korea dares to bully you, I will beat him.
This is not the most bizarre thing about Han Wangran, not long after he ascended the throne, he gave himself the nickname of "Henghui", which caused an uproar in all countries.
The name is used in the court of the past dynasties, mainly for the emperor or meritorious courtiers, generally the name given by the court after the death of a person, that is, to use one or two words to make a general evaluation of a person's life, which is considered to be the final conclusion of the coffin.
But Han Henghui, the king of Han Ran, gave himself a nickname when he was alive, he really didn't see the ancients before, and he didn't see the comers after. This made Ji Kang really not understand Han Wangran's thoughts. I can only tell myself, maybe it's not that I don't understand, it's because my level is not enough, anyway, this King Han Henghui gave himself this nickname when he was alive.
At this time, Han Wangran had not sent Zheng Guo to Qin State to repair the canal, so let's leave this alone.
is that the current Qin State is always fighting South Korea, and South Korea wants to use the channel to let the Qin army fight Zhao and Wei, but I didn't expect Han Wangran to agree every time.
This really the two countries of Zhao and Wei, when our ancestors were divided into three families, they said that they would be one. Normally, when Qin State fights you, every time our two countries send troops to help you Korea. Why is it that now that you Han Ran has ascended the throne as the king of Han, you always use the way to let the Qin State fight us?
So this time, the Qin State sent troops to fight South Korea again, and Zhao and Wei did not send troops. Watching South Korea being bullied, you have to say that you are doing it yourself.
Therefore, in Ji Kang's opinion, the Qin State was able to go east to Hangu, destroy Korea and unify the six countries, this Han Wangran is definitely a miracle! But it helped Qin Guo a lot.
In the face of the great war that was being waged between Qin and Han in Yancheng and other places, at the military meeting held in Liaodi, everyone had no other way.
Jun Xiangju Xin stood up and said, "No matter what, we are already familiar with the strategic purpose of the Qin State, but the most important thing for us in Liaodi at the moment is to do our own thing.
According to Childe's instructions, this year, the army should complete the following two goals: first, it must complete the replacement of equipment of 40,000 regular troops, and increase the number of regular troops by 10,000 in October; Second, it is necessary to vigorously promote the system of compulsory conscription, and to organize military training for men between the ages of 15 and 50 during their leisure time. ”
Rong Yan and military generals such as Bo Wang, Wang Shi, and Shi Yong also nodded. Rong Yan said to the people below: "Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case." This compulsory military system must be implemented as soon as possible, and we must do what Gongzi said: once a big war comes, the first wave of our Liaodi will be based on 40,000 to 50,000 regular troops as the main force, supplemented by 100,000 militiamen between the ages of 18 and 35 who have received military training. ”
Ji Kang's small mouth pursed, picked up the pottery cup next to him, took a sip of water and said: "In the world of great contention, that's it, we can't control others, we can only go our own way."
Let's go on according to the explanation of the drama, in the future, we will walk on two legs, although we will mainly develop the economy and be assisted by the military. These two legs must be walked at the same time in order for us to walk steadily. It is absolutely impossible to ignore the economy and military preparations. ”
For more than a year, what Ji Kang did in Liaodi has convinced everyone present. Although he is young, he has a majesty of his own. Regarding what Ji Kang said, no one in Liaodi dares to doubt it now.
Everyone stood up and said in unison, "No."
Seeing this, Lu Zhong praised it in his heart, and looked at Zou Yan at each other. The two of them tacitly agreed, nodded, and left with everyone to say goodbye to Ji Kang.
After everyone left, Ji Kang did not go out, stood in front of the map on the wall, looked at it for a long time, and stared for a long time on the place of Changping, the Shangdang region of South Korea.
And Shi Kang behind him was also like his own son, staring at the map on the wall, silently remembering the names of each city and mountain and river on the map.
Shi Dang will always remember what Gongzi said: "In the world of great contention, if you don't fight, you will die." ”
At this time, Huang Yong returned and said in Ji Kang's ear: "Childe, according to your orders, now the Intelligence Bureau has successively sent personnel to the counties of Yan State, Donghu, Ji State, and Goguryeo. I plan to train another batch of people this year and then send them to the Central Plains countries. ”
Ji Kang nodded and said to Huang Yong: "Well done, we must grasp the trends of the surrounding countries and the Central Plains, and don't be afraid to spend money." This is a matter of life and death for us in Liaodi, and even for Yanguo, and we must not be sloppy. ”
Huang Yong didn't say anything and nodded. Seeing that Ji Kang had no other instructions, he retreated.
