Chapter 33 A mere child sees Duke Qin

"The small ones are Jin people, but in order to achieve their own achievements, the small ones are not hesitated." Fan Yu said.

"Then how do you be loyal to Qin?" Si Qishu asked.

"If the little one gets the doctor's recommendation, the grace of knowing the encounter is unforgettable, and there is nothing to repay, only if the liver and brain work for Qin, can he be worthy of the doctor's kindness!"

"Good! Since you are so ambitious, I will introduce you to Qin Jun, don't let me down. ”

"Hey!"

In the early morning of the next day, Fan Yu changed into a scholar's costume, dressed in a light crimson robe, and followed the Western Beggar Technique to see Qin Jun Yingfu.

"You are the soldier black that the Western Beggar said?" Ying Bang put it on

Among them, Xu Que is Zhao Dun's people, Xu Jia's father is undoubtedly Zhao Dun's people because he cooperates with Zhao Pier to prevent the Jin army from pursuing the Qin army, so it must be Zhao Dun's people, and Zhao Dun's different political position is Xun Lin's father, although Zhao Dun accepts Zhao Di's proposal, but seeing that Zhao Dun secretly sent Zhao Pier to sabotage his strategy, judging from this, I am afraid that Zhao Diao will not be able to get Zhao Dun's trust, Luan Dun has no obvious political tendency, after this analysis, it can be learned that the six Qings and Zhao Dun are close to each other, only Yin Que and Xu Jia's father, and the other three are not Zhao Dun's henchmen, However, since there was no obvious conflict between them, they were able to maintain a semblance of peace. Among them, Zhao Dun is the most feared person is Xun Lin's father, because Xun Lin's father has served as a full-time defense of the Di clan since the time of the Jin Dynasty, so among the six secretaries of the Jin State, Xun Lin's father is familiar with the affairs of the Di clan, no one can match it.

The habits of the Di people are different from those of the Central Plains, nomadic dwelling, unable to know their whereabouts, such a special life characteristic, if it is not for those who have experience in fighting with the Di people, I am afraid that they will not be able to do it, so if the Qin State is defeated, Bai Di takes advantage of the situation to grow, and the Jin State in order to inhibit the development of Bai Di, it is bound to rely on Xun Lin's father in the future, and Zhao Dun is afraid of being marginalized, not only that, because Xun Lin's father is not Zhao Dun's belonging, Jin Linggong is more likely to take the opportunity to unite Xun Lin's father to get rid of Zhao Dun, so Zhao Dun After careful consideration, was unwilling to give Jin Linggong and Xun Lin's father such an opportunity, so he secretly instructed Zhao Chuan, Xu Jiafu and others to wait for an opportunity to sabotage the actions of the Jin army, so that the Qin army could be preserved.

Lu and Xu Jia's father were convicted

Finally, the last doubt is discussed, since the leader behind the battle of Hequ is not only Zhao Dun, but also Zhao Dun's henchman, so Xu Jia's father should be innocent, why did Xu Jia's father still fall to the fate of running to defend the country? "The First Year of the Emperor Xuangong" cloud:

Let Xu Jia's father be in the guard, and Li Xu Ke. 34

In the "Zuo Chuan" record Xu Jia's father's escape, the word used is "put", Jian Wenshan in "Zuo Chuan" Running Research" Zhongyun: "Judging from the record of "Zuo Chuan", both release and exile have the meaning of passively going abroad, and there are chasing soldiers behind. ...... word "release" is usually the one who succeeds in the struggle catches the enemy, counts the crime, and then makes him run to all directions, covering up his crime and killing him. …… If a person is 'released', he must be guilty of a crime in his country, and he seems to have no personal freedom and can only be disposed of. Where they are not able to run away on their own, and where they are usually banished, they are disposed of as far away from the capital as possible. 35 Xu Jia's father's run is the word "put", then Xu Jia's chance of being involved in the internal struggle of the Jin State is quite high, and unfortunately, he became a loser in this struggle, although the crime does not lead to death, but was forced by the victors in the country, so he went to defend the country, so although "Zuo Chuan" Yun Xu Jia went out to defend the country, it was caused by the battle of Hequ "no life", but to explore it, it is a crime to add to it.

Since Xu Jia's father is willing to cooperate with Zhao Chong to prevent the Jin army from going on the expedition, he must be Zhao Dun's henchmen, but Xu Jiagui is the subordinate of the army, and Zhao Dun was in power at that time. The author believes that this person is Jin Linggong. For such an inference, in fact, there is no need to be too surprised, because the political dispute between the monarch and the nobles of the Jin State has been since the beginning of the three armies of the Jin Dynasty, and the power that originally belonged to the Marquis of Jin was gradually transferred to the nobles in the struggle between the successive military commanders and the nobles, and after the death of the Duke of Jin Xiang, Zhao Dun did not intend to make the Duke of Jin Linggong succeed to the throne, and then forced by Mu Huan's pressure, he had to reluctantly accept the Duke of Jin Linggong as the new Marquis of Jin, although the Duke of Jin Linggong was young at the time, he finally understood the fact that Zhao Dun rejected himself, so the relationship between the Duke of Jin Linggong and the commander of the Chinese army Zhao Dun was tense, It can be said that it is the most since the Duke of Wen of the Jin Dynasty, until the first year of Lu Xuan, the conflict between the two broke out immediately, such as "Zuo Chuan: The First Year of Xuan Gong":

So the Marquis of Jin was extravagant, and Zhao Xuanzi was in power, and he suddenly admonished and did not enter. 36

From the record of "Zuo Biography", it seems that the first time Jin Linggong sent assassins to assassinate Zhao Dun, and the second time was in the name of drinking, in fact, he ambushed the armor to take Zhao Dun's life, and actually needed to fight with his life. It became a big trouble for Jin Linggong, and Xu Jia's father was careless for a while, and was accidentally mastered by Jin Linggong, Xu Jia's father was forced to have no choice but to go out to defend the country, and Jin Linggong declared to the outside world that he would be punished for his transgression in the Battle of Hequ, and this was the first victory over Zhao Dun's camp since Jin Linggong was appointed as the Marquis of Jin, and this incident also became the key to Jin Linggong's decision to fight against Zhao Dun.

After Xu Jia's father ran away, Zhao Dun lost his right-hand man, because Xu Jia's father had a number of contributions to Zhao Dun, so Zhao Dun still made Xu Ke continue to serve as the next military assistant, on the other hand, Jin Linggong's side, also took advantage of Zhao Dun's loss of Xu Jia's father's important arm, and immediately began to regulate the opportunity of Xu Jia's father's important arm, and immediately began to plan the assassination of Zhao Dun. In fact, Xu Jia's father was released to defend the country, and the battle of Hequ itself has nothing to do with it, but it is a very important clue to restore the truth of the battle of Hequ: Xu Jia's father and Zhao Chuan committed the same mistake, but the two ended differently, and the time when Xu Jia's father was convicted is not in line with the general practice of dealing with war criminals in the Spring and Autumn Period, so if it were not for these two doubts, the truth of the Battle of Hequ may forever sink into the torrent of history.

Conclusion

Although the Battle of Hequ is not such a large-scale and crucial battle as the Battle of Chengpu and the Battle of Yin in the "Zuo Chuan", after analyzing the process of this battle, we can find that the truth is not as simple as recorded in the text, but has many hidden secrets. After clarifying the reasons for the occurrence of the doubts above, the author now restates the full background of the Battle of the River Meander and the background of the Battle of the River Meander as follows to conclude this article. Because the Jin State in Zhao Dun succeeded to the military marshal, the struggle between the nobles continued, so the Jin State was weakened, unable to meddle in the affairs of various countries, at this time the Minister of Chu Fan Shan thought that it was a great opportunity for the Chu State to dominate, so he suggested that the King of Chu Mu take this opportunity to invade the Central Plains countries, the King of Chu Mu from his suggestion, and the Jin State found out that the Chu State was planning to do its best to unite the princes to resist, otherwise not only the safety of the countries is in danger, but the hegemony of the Jin State must not be guaranteed. However, Zhao Dun could not concentrate on fighting against the Chu State, and had to face the Qin State in the West, because Zhao Dun was forced by domestic pressure to attack the Qin army that escorted Gongzi Yong back to China in Linghu, so he offended Qin Kanggong, so he continued to fight with the Qin State for several years, and now with the threat of the Chu State, Zhao Dun had to have a choice, so he took advantage of the Battle of Hequ, and through his cronies Zhao Chong and Xu Jia's father to destroy the opportunity for the Jin army to defeat the Qin army, this goodwill was conveyed to Qin Kanggong. The Jin State was able to maintain peace for several years, and the Jin State was able to resist the invasion of the Chu State wholeheartedly during this period of time, in order to maintain the hegemony, and furthermore, by using the Qin State to suppress the development of Bai Di in the West, Xun Lin's father also had no chance to replace himself, and he could indirectly isolate the Jin Linggong and prevent the Jin Linggong from taking the opportunity to combine with the party to deal with him, so that his rule would be more stable.
