Chapter 109: Reading History

Yesterday, the group discussed the Battle of Changping at the end of the Warring States period in the pre-Qin period. A certain bento seller always likes to boast, saying that Lian Po's performance in the Battle of Changping is not as good as Zhao Kuo...... Of course, that's not the point. The point is that I asked him next: Then the four generals of the Warring States period started to be a herd, why did they put Lian Po in it?

He said that the Battle of Changping was not fought well, but the next Battle of Handan was fought very well. So I reminisced carefully, recalled carefully (and then Baidu). I finally remembered the so-called Battle of Handan.

- Then I found out that the cheat daddy bento dealer is deceiving people again, and Lian Po in the Battle of Handan is a trickster. In that period of history, the most important, shining, and awesome one was the Xinling Jun Wei Wuji!

So the conversation changed. Yes, transferred. The people in the group began to tout in unison that Xinlingjun was here. But that's also a matter of course, and you can figure it out if you think about it a little bit. The so-called Four Sons of the Warring States Period can simply be changed to a combination of Wei Wuji, the Xinling Jun who is crazy and domineering, and the other three who deceive the world and steal their names.

Well, I'm actually talking about it. But this is also very normal, right, if you don't say something out of line with novels nowadays, dogs won't care about you!

And I think I'm quite right. Why? Because of Xinlingjun and Wei Wuji, they are indeed more than a step stronger than the other three.

First of all, let's talk about it, the four sons of the Warring States, everyone can probably know, Qi State, Meng Weijun, Zhao State, Pingyuan Jun, Chu Guochun, Shenjun, Wei Guoxin, Lingjun. It's these four, because they are similar in identity, and they all like "Yangshi", so they are called the four sons of the Warring States. But juxtaposing them is only because of identity and behavior. In the three aspects of morality, ability and merit, Xinlingjun is far superior to the other three.

First of all, let's talk about Chu Guochun Shenjun - to say that this bastard is completely made up. Compared with the other three "sons", who are really royal blood, this product is a lucky villain. and also made a bullshit thing like Lu Buwei's raccoon cat change. The most important thing is that it has not been done yet, and it has been done in reverse. So nowadays, basically, no one knows him. Because there is really nothing to say about this thing itself, everyone can despise him as much as possible.

Then said Qi Guo Meng tasted Jun. Speaking of Meng Weijun, perhaps everyone is the most familiar one. Perhaps his name is much greater than that of Xinlingjun. But you can continue to think carefully, think carefully - who passed down the reputation of this product? Who are the "Little Meng Taste" and "Sai Meng Taste" who like to refer to themselves as "Meng Taste"?

It's "rivers and lakes", it's "green forests", it's "underworld" - it's just that.

And why do they like to use Meng Weijun as a metaphor, instead of a Sai Ping, Xiao Ping, Sai Chun Shen, Xiao Chun Shen or Sai Xin Ling, Xiao Xin Ling?

Because "Meng Weijun" is indeed the most suitable - the rooster cries and the dog thief, the cunning rabbit three holes, the doorman is separated after losing power and being ousted, and the doorman who has regained power will come back - such a thing, can the "rivers and lakes", "green forest", and "underworld" not like it? Of course I do.

As for Pingyuan-kun, this product can be said with Xinling-jun next. Because of the meaning of the existence of this product, it seems that it is to find an analogy for Xinlingjun, so as to set off Xinlingjun to be more arrogant and domineering......

It still starts with the Battle of Handan. This background is that Zhao was **** in the Battle of Changping before, and then Qin attacked Zhao for the second time, Zhao was mobilized, and men, women, and children went into battle...... And then get the army...... Lakh.

Yes, 400,000 men were cheated before, and now men, women, and children are in battle, only 100,000.

And then Long Tao Lian is quite a commander-in-chief. Take this rabble of 100,000 to defend Handan City. Although Lian Po is traditionally good at defense, and the commander of the Qin State in this battle is not such a killing god in vain, if there are no variables, then the Zhao State will definitely be finished.

And this "variable" is naturally foreign reinforcements. Zhao Guo first took out the land of six cities and begged Qi State, Qi State swallowed the land, and then pretended to be stupid and ignored him. This is followed by a more famous allusion. "Mao Sui self-recommended". Pingyuan Jun sent an envoy to the state of Chu and asked King Chu Kaolie for reinforcements.

From this allusion, it can be seen that Pingyuan-kun is not a good person. Mao Sui is such a capable person, he has been under his hands for three years, he was stunned that he didn't know that there was such a person, and he mocked the other party and said that talents are like awls, and they can rise to the top anywhere, and you haven't moved at all for three years, so forget it.

Is Mao Sui really "no movement at all"? It's impossible-look at this goods when he was on the envoy to the state of Chu, "Since it was to Chu, the king of the plains negotiated with the king of Chu, and he was indecisive from sunrise to mid-day." Mao then pressed the sword to go up the ladder, directly stated the benefits, and finally made the king of Chu make an alliance with blood, and decided that Chu and Zhao would unite against Qin. ”

Such an awesome character! Such an awesome character, in Pingyuan-kun - three years! - Pingyuan Jun was stunned that he didn't know that there was such a person! It is no wonder that later generations commented on the "feats of the plain monarchs". This thing really is an eye-catching.

At the same time that Chu sent troops, Zhao also asked Wei for reinforcements. This is this period of history, which can be called the most magnificent and magnificent passage of the pre-Qin period and the end of the Warring States period, where the Xinling Emperor stole the talisman to save Zhao, which happened under this circumstance.

At that time, King Wei Anxu was threatened by the Qin State, and the 100,000 army did not move forward. Xin Lingjun couldn't persuade him. At that time, Pingyuan-kun married Xinling-kun and his sister, and the two of them had such a relationship. Pingyuan Jun wrote to him and said: "At that time, I married you because I thought you were a character and could help me, but now the Zhao State is about to die, but the reinforcements of the Wei State have not yet come. Zhao Guo is dead, maybe you think it's nothing, but can't you pity your sister? ”

Xin Lingjun was very sad after reading the letter, and then made a very tragic decision - since the army of Wei is not going, then I will go by myself. Then he armed all the doormen, hundreds of military vehicles, thousands of soldiers, and went to save Zhao Guo...... Or send it to death.

Let's make a comparison here, and Meng Weijun - this product was "scattered" after being dismissed. And what about Xinlingjun, he is going to die! As a result, the doormen followed him and died! Xinlingjun and Meng Yanjun, Xinlingjun's doorman and Meng Yanjun's doorman. It can be seen from this one thing. Judgment from above.

But if he really died like this, then there would be no matter of stealing talismans to save Zhao.

Here we would like to mention another "scholar" who intersected with Xinlingjun. He was a "hermit" called Hou Huan. The status is not high, just a doorman, but Xinlingjun knows his ability, so he is very sincere. Before Xin Lingjun went to die, he felt that he should say goodbye to Hou Huan. After that, Hou Huan gave him an idea. King Wei has a favorite concubine Ruji, Xinling Jun once sent a doorman to help him avenge his father's revenge, you want her to help you steal the talisman, and then take the talisman to the border, and take the troops there.

Here you can compare it with Pingyuanjun again - none of the group of disciples he personally selected were useful, but it was the Mao Sui that he didn't value that played a big role.

And here, Xin Lingjun asked Hou Huan, and Hou Huan really had an idea - and not only had an idea, but also had integrity - at that time, the talisman was stolen, and Hou Huan said to Xin Lingjun at that time:

I'm too old to run, so you can do it. But I still have something to repay you - I drew my sword and killed myself at that time, and I decided to die that he pressed his own life on Xinlingjun. If Xin Lingjun hesitates, if he is scared and regrets it, he has to think about it, this is a life that is pressed on Hou Huan! This is Hou Huan's intention! Light life and death, heavy faith and righteousness - this is the "fan" of the pre-Qin scholars! Such exquisite, so heroic, and such a drag thing can only be done by that group of madmen "scholars" in the pre-Qin period!

So Xinling Jun went to the border without hesitation, and asked the strong man Zhu Hai to kill the veteran Jin Contempt and take over the army.

If you talk about stealing the talisman before, it can be regarded as Xinlingjun listening to other people's ideas. Then the next to lead the troops to fight, from this point it really shows Xinlingjun's ability. In other words, Xinlingjun's personal ability, in addition to his full prestige, is added to the military.

He ordered the whole army to be formed, and the only son in the family left, and the father and son were in the army, and the father went home, and the elder brother who was in the army went home. One of the orders of this order is to understand the soldiers in terms of "human feelings", and at the same time, it also allows the soldiers in the army to have no worries and can work their lives without scruples. It can be said that it is a very clever idea, and it can be said that Xinlingjun, who gave this order, is extremely good at grasping people's hearts (Lancelot: King Arthur doesn't understand people's hearts, so he is not as good as Xinlingjun...... Drag it away).

After that, Xinlingjun led this group of soldiers to win the battle against Qiang Qin. At that time, when he appeared in Handan as a "savior", the sensational effect was as follows:

King Zhao and Pingyuan Jun welcomed their sons in the realm, and Pingyuan Jun took the arrow as the first guide for Gongzi (again analogous). King Zhao bowed again and said: "Since ancient times, there have been no sages and sons!" At this time, Pingyuan Jun did not dare to compare himself with others (no longer dare to compare, there is no need to compare). The allied forces of the nations then marched together to regain the lost territory. Hedong County of Wei and Anyang, Taiyuan County of Zhaozhi and Pigao and Wu'an, Hanshangdang County and Runan.

This was the first great victory of the Shandong countries against the strong Qin.

Of course, saving Zhao can't be regarded as the pinnacle of Xinlingjun's life. The pinnacle of his life was a few years later, when the Qin State attacked the Wei State again, and the King of Wei Anxu remembered his eloquent younger brother. Hurriedly sent someone to ask for Xin Lingjun to save his life.

Because only Xinlingjun's military ability can fight against Qiang Qin, and only Xinlingjun's prestige and credibility can allow other princes to come to the rescue. Thus, the most magnificent event at the end of the Warring States period took place.

This was also the second successful counterattack of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong against Qiang Qin - Xinlingjun returned to Wei and was appointed as a general. Then he united with the other five countries, and in order to join the longitudinal commander, the division of the six countries defeated Qiang Qin, and one of them hit Hangu Pass. Guests from all over the world rushed to present the art of war to Xinling Junjin and co-authored the book "The Art of War of Wei Gongzi". Xinling Jun shook the world, and his life of dragging and hanging the sky ushered in the peak.

And then it failed.

It was not a military defeat, but a political defeat, another great victory of the divisive scheme. Because of the reputation of Xinling Jun, King Wei Anxu panicked, and then deposed him, and then the Qin State fought back, and eighteen years later, the Wei State perished.

Here you may think of another person with a similar ending to Xinling Jun, there is such a paragraph in the Theory of the Six Kingdoms: Zhao Wei fought five battles against Qin, two defeats and three victories. After Qin attacked Zhao again, Li Mulian did it. The herd is slandered, Handan is the county, and it is a pity that it uses force but does not end.

But Li Mu is comparable to Xinlingjun? The life and death of Li Mu alone only determines the survival of a country in Zhao State. Xinlingjun decided the survival of the entire Six Kingdoms of Shandong! At that time, there was such a passage in the treatise on the Qin Dynasty:

Han, Wei, Yan, Chu, Qi, Zhao, Song, Wei, and Zhongshan people. So the people of the Six Kingdoms, with Ning Yue, Xu Shang, Su Qin, and Du He's subordinates, Qi Ming, Zhou Shi, Chen Zhen, Zhao Hua, Lou Zhuan, Zhai Jing, Su Li, and Le Yi all knew their intentions, and Wu Qi, Sun Bin, Dai Tuo, Ni Liang, Wang Liao, Tian Ji, Lian Po, and Zhao Haozhi controlled their soldiers. Taste ten times the land, millions of people, knock on the pass and attack Qin.

The tenfold land mentioned here, millions of people, knocking on the pass and attacking Qin, is talking about the counterattack of Xinlingjun as the commander of the longitudinal - when there is Xinlingjun, it is a victory, and when there is no Xinlingjun, it is a failure.

In other words, the role of Xinlingjun alone is much more important than that of Shenma Ning Yue, Xu Shang, Su Qin, and Du He, Qi Ming, Zhou Shi, Chen Zhen, Zhao Hua, Lou Xuan, Zhai Jing, Su Li, Le Yi, Wu Qi, Sun Bin, Dai Tuo, Ni Liang, Wang Liao, Tian Ji, Lian Po, and Zhao Haozhilun! - With Wei Wuji, the Six-Nation Coalition is a coalition army, and without Wei Wuji, the Six-Nation Coalition is nothing!

Therefore, in the pre-Qin era, at the end of the Warring States Period, the most romantic, shiny, and dazzling character was this person, Xinling Jun, Wei Wuji.

The following is a part of the historical evaluation, from Baidu:

Sima Qian: "I passed the ruins of Daliang and asked about the so-called Yimen." The east gate of the city is also. The sons of the world also have happy people, but the hermit of the cave who believes in the king of Lingjun is not ashamed to hand over, and there is also. The princes of the crown are not vain.

Zuo Si: "Thousands of times for it, and the princes for it." You are not my respect, and the heavy man is over the mountain. Qin Qi Zhao. Wei Zhen Bafan. The name of the Xinling is Ruolan Fen. ”

Sima Zhen: "Corporal Xinling, neighboring countries are inclined to each other. For the sake of the son, he did not dare to increase the troops. I know Zhu Hai quite well, and I do my best to pay tribute to Hou Ying. Then he was despised, and finally resigned from Zhao Cheng. Mao and Xue are heavy, and they are all long.

Li Bai: "The noble son of the Great Liang, the air covers the clouds." Save Zhao and restore Wei, and the world will hear about it. ”

Xu Jun: "Hou Zhu decided to endanger Zhao, and Mao Xue sought to protect Daliang." Deshi Xin knows that the effect is fast, and the survival of the country is the survival of the country. ”

Wang Shizhen: "The good men of the three princes are also self-explanatory; The good man of Xinling Jun is also to save Wei. ”

Lu Nan: "In the past, I heard that the noble son was Xinling Jun. The sword qi is even autumn water, and the heroic wind is long and cloudy. ”

Li Mengyang: "Liang Yuan used to have Xinling Jun, and his name competed with Daihua. ”

Hong Liangji: "Xinlingjun is a matter of survival for the six countries, how can it be that the monarchs of Mengwei, Pingyuan, and Chunshen are happy with their guests, and they have nothing to do with the country." ”

Li Wanfang: "The four monarchs of the Warring States are all known as good men, but the good of Xinling comes from the center, covering its quality and benevolence, and its temperament is complex and intelligent." Smart is able to know how to use people, benevolence is to treat the virtuous, there is a period of inexhaustible sincerity, not reluctant to pretend to be comparable, this wise man is so happy to use. Yu Sanjun, Meng tastes but camps private ears, plains are arrogant, Huang Xie is more and more insignificant, all kinds of good people think of themselves, and Xinling is a good man who thinks that the country is also. ”

Qian Weicheng: "Xinling Jun sent an envoy, and the princes ran for their lives, don't dare to take the latter, benevolence and righteousness are in the hearts of the people, and the prestige is enough to win it." And how can Xinling Jun save the people and fight the violence, and follow the example of Tang and Wuzhi? In vain, he is not in a hurry for utilitarianism, he has the heart of disaster relief and compassion for people, and he is powerful in the world, and his achievements are incomparable. ”

Tang Harmonic; "At that time, Qin was in great trouble, and the ministers of the six countries were prime ministers, but Xinling was really able to be a corporal, and he could only suppress Qin."

Zhang Duqing: "Handan should be the same as Fu, and the son is proud." A lot of clothes belong to Zhao Sheng, who will go to the golden armor. The girder waved a lonely sword, and the soldier in the lying room won "Liutao". Today, Jiujing is good, and it is ashamed to have no cup of wine to lay basil. ”

Liang Qichao: "Xinlingjun went to the position of a thousand times, and entered the tiger's den, in order to be anxious about the difficulties of friends, huh, how can it be reached." Commentators are among the Plains, Mengwei, and Chunshen, and they are enough to know the son. ”

Xu Shichang: "The kings of the six kingdoms are not enough to save the weak Zhao, and the single son can retreat from the strong Qin with the second." ”

Wu Peifu: "The chess board is undecided to lose the overall situation, the universe is still waiting for the guilty body, the alcoholic woman will be short of breath in the end, who will forgive Lingjun for a thousand years." ”
