Chapter 9 The Slaughter of White
Kill the gods, slaughter people, Wu Anjun.
These three titles describe people in vain.
Bai Qi, also known as Gongsun Qi, was a native of Yiyi, an outstanding military strategist at the end of the Warring States Period, and a representative figure of the military family.
He is familiar with the art of war, good at using soldiers, assisting King Qin Zhaoxiang repeatedly made military exploits, as another outstanding military strategist in Chinese history after Sun Wu and Wu Qi, Bai Qi and Lian Po, Li Mu, Wang Jian are known as the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, and are also the first of the four famous generals.
Carefully calculating the achievements of Bai Qi's life, it is really breathtaking and awe-inspiring.
In the fourteenth year of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, Bai Qi was recommended by Qin Xiang Wei Ran as the main general, which was the first time that Bai Qi participated in the war on a large scale as the main general.
Not long after, Bai Qi was ordered to lead his troops to attack Chu, but the Chu army was defeated and defeated, so he had no choice but to cede the lands north of Shangyong and Hanshui, trying to sue for peace with Qin.
And when he conquered the Chu State again, he was invincible and conquered, successively capturing five cities such as Yan and Deng, and then he led the troops to cross the Qin-Chu border mountains, cut off the enemy's backup troops, and quickly broke into the Chu realm in three ways, directly surrounding the capital of the Chu State, Yingdu.
In the battle of Yanying, Bai Qi led the Qin army all the way into the long, unstoppable, he directly led his troops to break through the capital of Chu Ying, Beduyan, burned down the temple and Yiling of Chu, caused heavy casualties to the Chu army, and drowned hundreds of thousands of people in Yancheng of Chu.
In the battle of Huayang, Bai Qi and Wei Ran jointly led the troops, and led the Qin army to fight with the armies of Wei and Zhao in the Huayang area of South Korea, Wei and Zhao also failed to stop the pace of the killing god, and the Qin State won a complete victory, and then occupied a large area of the Wei State, captured the generals of Han, Zhao and Wei, beheaded as many as 130,000, and drowned more than 20,000 Zhao soldiers.
What really made him famous was the Battle of Changping, which shocked the ages, which was the final decisive battle between Qin and Zhao, and also the origin of his name for killing gods and people.
The early stage of the Battle of Changping was a protracted war of attrition, Qin State due to years of conquest, the domestic grain and grass reserves were seriously depleted, the stalemate on the battlefield was not dominant, and Lian Po was impeccable in the use of soldiers.
King Zhao was young and vigorous and wanted to attack Qin, but Lian Po, who was proficient in the art of war, could not hold on and did not obey King Zhao's orders.
Zhao Kuo followed the intention of King Zhao, changed the defense to the offense, he changed the defensive deployment arranged by Lian Po, changed the generals to organize the attack, Qin saw that there was an opportunity, and secretly replaced Wang Di who was originally in charge of the battlefield with Bai Qi, so this killing feast began.
In view of Zhao Kuo's weakness of being anxious to win, Bai Qi adopted the operational policy of feint defeat and retreat to lure the enemy from the position, and then divide and encircle and annihilate it, and led the Qin army to a decisive battle with the Zhao army in the area of Changping of Zhao State, the Zhao army participated in the battle of more than 450,000 people, and the Qin army participated in the war as many as one million, Bai Qi was unstoppable, and the Zhao army was finally defeated, and the Qin State won and occupied Changping.
And for some reason, the murderous Bai Qi actually ordered that all 450,000 soldiers be killed, leaving only the 240 soldiers who were still young and released back to Zhao to report the news.
Zhao State after this battle was greatly damaged, this battle accelerated the process of Qin's unification of the world, and at the same time was the last turning point in the history of the Warring States, so far the unification of Qin is only a matter of time, and Bai Qi also because of this battle, the first war of the gods, because of his coldness to order the pit to kill all the pawns, because of this bloody means, so by later generations respected and feared called "killing gods", "human slaughter".
Bai Qi served as the chief general of the Qin army for more than 30 years, attacked more than 70 cities, and made great contributions to the unification of the six countries of Qin, so he was named Wu'an Jun by King Zhaoxiang of Qin.
The Battle of Yique annihilated 240,000 Han and Wei allied forces, completely sweeping the way for the Qin army to advance eastward.
The Chu army was broken, and the Battle of Yanying invaded Yingdu, drowning hundreds of thousands of people in Yancheng, Chu State, forcing Chu State to move its capital, and Chu State has been in a slump since then.
And the Battle of Changping killed 450,000 Zhao troops in one fell swoop, and laid the foundation for himself to be respected as a god of eternal killing by later generations in a bloody way.
According to the research of later generations, Bai Qi never lost in his life, and killed more than two million people during the entire Warring States period, and in his hands alone, he buried more than one million soldiers from various countries.
But it is such a legendary figure, but the final outcome is because of his high merits, offending Ying Hou and demoting officials one after another, and in the 50th year of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, he was given to die in Du You.
In the nineteenth year of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzong specially set up a martial temple in order to commend and worship the famous generals of the past dynasties, with the founding military division of the Zhou Dynasty Jiang Taigong Lu Shang as the main sacrifice, and the Han Dynasty Marquis Zhang Liang as the deserved, and with the famous generals of the past dynasties ten people from it, the first in the left column is Bai Qi.
Shen Lang has been interested in these so-called heroic deeds since he was a child, thought about it for a long time, and talked to himself with emotion.
"This Bai Qi is really a foolish and loyal person, if he says let him die, he will die, if I have such a ability, if King Qin Zhaoxiang dares to let me die, I will dare to let the Qin Dynasty change the dynasty."
"Ridiculous."
At this time, Chun Ting happened to return to the room, holding the freshly brewed hot tea in his hand, and when he heard what Shen Lang said, he said with a straight face.
"It's been so long, but in the face of these secrets, I still take it for granted, who told you that Bai Qi died?"
Chunting really surprised us with every sentence, the final fate of this ancient people Tu didn't sound like he was given to die in Du You like the history books?
Chunting didn't pay attention to our stunned reaction, but blew the steaming teacup, gently tasted the hot tea, sat down satisfied, and began to continue talking.
The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period were endless, and the princes suffered countless casualties in successive battles, so the weak water people extracted resentment from the soldiers who died in battle, so as to break through the Shenzhou barrier and leave a gap in the barrier.
Although the leader clearly knows that the Shenzhou barrier was damaged by weak water because of the grievances of the people who died in battle, he has no way, since ancient times, there have been battles where there are people, not to mention the period of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the princes of all parties fight for the common lord of the world, as long as the world is not unified for a day, the Central Plains will not be peaceful for a day.
In desperation, the leader had to think of another way.
Rather than letting the princes fight each other, it is better to secretly support one side and help this side clear the obstacles, so that no one in the world dares to compete with it, so as to solve the appearance of resentment at the root, and when there is a person with the emperor's life, the country will dominate the world.
After a few considerations, the party he finally chose to help was the Qin State that succeeded in unifying the world in later generations, and the leader was hidden behind the scenes and never came forward, and the person who helped the Qin State clear the obstacles on the bright side was Bai Qi, who was called the God of Killing by later generations!
