In this world, after Fan Xu was captured in the Battle of Jiaxian, he once ignored Zhang Jiashi's repeated persuasions to surrender for the sake of his loyalty to Liu Bang. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Please search to see the most complete and fastest updates
Zhang Jiashi didn't care too much, but after several unsuccessful persuasions, he released Fan Xu, and told him that in the following days, Fan Xu was free.
To tell the truth, Zhang Jiashi was more jealous of Fan Xu, who was also a master, if it weren't for his scruples about his relationship with the Lu family, Zhang Jiashi might have given this person who didn't give face a very unforgettable lesson.
However, what Zhang Jiashi didn't expect was that Fan Xu did not return to Liu Bang after leaving the prison, but traveled around the area under his control, like Zhang Liang.
After Liu Bang died on the edge of the Wujiang River, Fan Xu returned to Shuangyueyi shortly afterwards and told Zhang Jiashi that he was willing to serve the Great Qin Empire.
Zhang Jiashi, who heard Fan Xu's plan, naturally would not refuse Fan Xu's request, because although Fan Xu is not a passing general, it is undeniable that Fan Xu's loyalty is very high, and once he thinks that a person is worthy of his service, then Fan Xu will let himself do his best in this regard.
In the following years, Fan Xu made a lot of contributions in the decades of his career with Zhang Jiashi, and in the decisive battle of the Dragon Court and the war to open up the Western Regions, Fan Xu was the first fierce general under the command of the Langzhong Army, and he repeatedly beheaded the generals of the hostile forces.
In 187 BC, after Huan Feng, the guard of the Great Qin Empire, died of illness, Zhang Jiashi did not think about letting Yu Yong serve as the guard captain, and Fan Xu served as the position of Lang Zhongling.
But Fan Xu refused this request, and instead hoped that he would continue to be an ordinary lieutenant Lang.
Due to many considerations, Zhang Jiashi finally gave up this idea, and instead let Zhang Shizhi, a classmate who was closer to Ying Xun, serve as the guard captain.
As for why this position was not arranged by Ying Xun himself, Zhang Jiashi was also very helpless, because Ying Xun thought that although Zhang Jiashi was his father, it was logical that as the captain of the Great Qin Empire, even if Zhang Jiashi had gradually faded out of the political circles of the Great Qin Empire. However, as the first person in the military, the appointment of senior officers such as Wei Wei and Lang Zhongling, Zhang Jiashi can be said to be duty-bound.
This is also where Zhang Jiashi is more helpless. Because in Zhang Jiashi's heart, such a situation is not what he wants.
Fan Hao died of illness in 179 BC, and his eldest son Fan Kang, as Ying Xun's classmate, replaced the position of lieutenant of Lang left by Fan Xu.
In terms of the influence of later generations, there are two other three heroes of the early Han Dynasty under Zhang Jiashi's command, who have relatively higher status.
These two people are Zhang Liang and Han Xin.
In the original world. Zhang Liang's evaluation is very high, and he has the title of Zhang Zifang, who has been prosperous for 400 years.
Liu Bang was called the emperor. once asked the ministers why they won the world. Gao Qi and Wang Ling praised him because of his benevolence and righteousness. Liu Bang said: "In the midst of the husband's strategy, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, I am not as good as the ovary; the town of the country, the people, the salary, the endless grain road, I am not as good as Xiao He; even millions of people, the battle will be won, and the attack will be won." I'm not as good as Han Xin. And thinks that he can appoint Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Han Xin, so he can win the world.
There are many descriptions of Zhang Liang's exploits in the historical records and Han books, and after Liu Bang was proclaimed emperor, when he was crowned with meritorious deeds, he was ranked according to the rank of the lord, and Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, ordered Zhang Liang to choose 30,000 households of Qi as his own food. Zhang Liang resigned, and humbly asked Feng Shi to stay in Pei County, Jiangsu Province, where he met Liu Bang, and Liu Bang agreed, so he called Zhang Liang the Marquis. The reason for Zhang Liang's resignation is: after he was defeated by Han, he was reduced to cloth clothes, and cloth clothes had to be sealed for 10,000 households and ranked as marquis, so he should be satisfied.
Zhang Liang saw the consolidation of the Han dynasty's power. There are people planning major national events, and his political goal of "avenging Han and strengthening Qin" and his personal goal of "sealing ten thousand households and ranking as a marquis" have also been achieved, and his lifelong wish has basically been satisfied. Coupled with the fact that he was sick and sick, and witnessed the tragic ending of Peng Yue, Han Xin and other meritorious ministers, he thought of Fan Li and Wen Xingyue's escape or death, and realized that "the cunning rabbit died." Lackeys cook, birds are exhausted, good bows are hidden, the enemy country is broken, and the ministers are killed", afraid of the loss of vested interests, and even more afraid that the fate of Han Xin and others will fall on him, Zhang Liangnai asked himself to retire, abandon everything in the world, concentrate on cultivating the Tao and cultivating essence, worship the learning of Huang Lao, live quietly and act in qi, and want to become an immortal. But Empress Lu felt virtuous to Zhang Liang and persuaded him not to suffer himself, but Zhang Liang finally obeyed Empress Lu's advice and still obeyed the fireworks in the world.
In 186 BC, Zhang Liang died of illness and was nicknamed Wencheng Marquis.
In this world, after Zhang Liang was captured, he had a similar experience to Fan Xu, but when he met Zhang Jiashi again, he asked Zhang Jiashi a question, that is, why did Zhang Jiashi pay so much for this country
Zhang Liang knew very well that if it were not for the Liaodong Army led by Zhang Jiashi to turn the tide, the current Great Qin Empire would have already become the dust of history.
And Zhang Jiashi is Zhang Liang said a sentence that is very famous in later history: "The world is not the world of one person, the world is not the world of one family, but if the world is messy and human life is like mustard, I will also turn the tide in my life." Mr. Zhang, don't you think that a sentence is very reasonable, as the so-called troubled people are not as good as peaceful dogs?"
Hearing Zhang Jiashi's words, Zhang Liang was silent for a long time before he sighed leisurely.
Because he knows very well that Zhang Jiashi's words are very reasonable, especially the last sentence that people in troubled times are not as good as Taiping dogs.
Zhang Liang, who experienced the end of the Warring States Period and the troubled times at the end of the Qin Dynasty, does not think that Zhang Jiashi's words are wrong, on the contrary, this sentence does reflect the strong contrast of life in a great unification era compared with the troubled times.
Zhang Liang naturally didn't know that Zhang Jiashi's sentence was also "pirated", because this very famous sentence was a change of "rather be a Taiping dog than a chaotic person" in the Taiping Guangji in the Song Dynasty work.
Of course, no one will ask Zhang Jiashi for copyright fees or anything for such a thing.
In the years that followed, Zhang Liang successively served as the Imperial History Order, the right sacrificial wine of the military division, the left sacrificial wine of the military division, and the position of Sun Po and Zhongcheng of the imperial history.
During the expedition, Zhang Liang and Sun Po, as the two major military divisions under Zhang Jiashi, contributed very much to the subsequent conquest of the Great Qin Empire.
Among them, Zhang Liang suggested that Zhang Jiashi first attack the Hexi Corridor and cut off the connection between the remnants of the Xiongnu and the Xiongnu tribes in the Qinghai area, and then launch an offensive on the Qinghai Plateau.
Although this suggestion wasted a lot of time, it is undeniable that after Zhang Jiashi sent troops to the Qinghai Plateau, the resistance encountered was indeed much weaker.
Moreover, after occupying the Hexi Corridor, the attack area against the Huns also expanded a lot. It laid the foundation for victory in the third Qin-Hun War.
And in 182 BC, Zhang Liang died of illness on the way back to Xianyang with the army in the position of Zhongcheng in the imperial history.
Han Xin, as a soldier in Chinese history, had a great influence on later generations in his military policy.
Han Xin is familiar with the art of war, and he says that "the more the merrier", as a tactician, Han Xin left a large number of tactical allusions for future generations: Ming Xiu plank road. Secretly crossing Chencang, Linjin setting up suspicions, Xiayang smuggling, Mu Poppy crossing the army, backing the water as a camp, pulling out the banner and changing the banner, passing the stumbling, Shen Sha breaking the water, half-crossing and attacking, embattled, ambush on all sides, etc. The way of using soldiers has been respected by soldiers of all generations. As a military strategist. Han Xin was the most outstanding general after Sun Wu and Bai Qi, and his greatest characteristic was that he was the best at using troops flexibly in the history of Chinese warfare, and the battles of Jingcheng and Weishui under his command were masterpieces in the history of warfare; as a strategist, his remarks when he visited the generals became the fundamental strategy for the victory of the Chu-Han War.
In the thirteenth volume of the Xianfeng Qinghe County Chronicles, it is recorded in the "Art and Literature": "Han Xin's three articles" and its small note cloud: "Emperor Han Cheng ordered Ren Hong to discuss the second military book, which is four, and there are three Han Xin articles in his power scheme. The Han calligraphy and art and literary chronicles before and after are all contained. And Yun Hanxing. Zhang Liang and Han Xin's order of the art of war, where there are one hundred and eighty-one, delete and use, and set thirty-five. Zhu Lu used things to steal it. The oldest person who wrote books by the Huaiyin people. From this, it is known that Han Xin had three military works, which is the earliest record of Huaiyin people's writings and theories.
During the time of house arrest, Han Xin and Zhang Liang sorted out the military books since the pre-Qin period, and obtained a total of 182 families. This is also the first large-scale collation of military books in Chinese history, which has laid a scientific foundation for academic research on Chinese affairs. At the same time, the laws of the army were collected and supplemented. He is the author of three articles on the art of war, which have been lost.
In this world, Han Xin was one of the first famous ministers of the early Han Dynasty to join Zhang Jiashi, and with the help of Zhang Jiashi's "accident", Han Xin's life trajectory has changed a lot.
After Zhang Jiashi returned to Xianyang. After serving as the captain of the Great Qin Empire, Han Xin also officially became an officer of the Qin army and began his life of conquest.
In the course of several years of conquest, Han Xin became one of the top officers of the new generation of the Great Qin Empire with his outstanding military exploits. In later generations, he was known as the Six Generals of Liaodong.
In the first battle of Qin-Hun in 200 BC, Han Xin commanded the defense system of Jinbei County and severely damaged the main force of Mao Dun Shan Yu, who was mainly attacking the Great Wall area of Jinbei County. Then he pursued the retreating Mao Dunshan with the reinforcements of Yingbu and Lishang, and defeated the defeated army. Another fierce battle broke out between the two sides in an area more than 100 kilometers north of Yanmen Pass in Dai County.
In this battle, Mao Dun broke and fled again, and although the Qin army achieved a decisive result, Li Shang was killed in this battle, becoming the highest-ranking officer of the Qin army killed in the first battle of Qin and Hungary.
In the subsequent wars, Han Xin achieved quite brilliant results, and in 188 BC, the then general of the Great Qin Empire, Su Jiao, and the national lieutenant Wang Li, respectively, retired, and Ying Xun asked Zhang Jiashi for advice, and Han Xin was added as the new general of the Great Qin Empire, and Sun Po was added as the national captain.
In 183 B.C., Han Xin led 130,000 cavalry from the city of Babylon to the west to attack the kingdom of Sethisi, while Zhang Jiashi led infantry and a total of 240,000 troops from the coast of the Indian Ocean to attack the Sinai Peninsula in later times.
This time, later known as the "Battle of Sethisi", Han Xin once again led the ambush of mounted infantry and 20,000 assault cavalry as bait, successfully luring the main force of the king of Sethisi to pursue them.
In the valley of tears in later generations, almost all of the more than 300,000 troops of the Sethi West Army were lost in this battle, and Han Xin submitted his resignation to Zhang Jiashi after this battle.
Zhang Jiashi naturally did not allow Han Xin to leave at this time, but compromised a way, that is, the county guard of Western Qin County, which was created by Han Xin for the newly conquered part of West Asia, served as the county lieutenant and was responsible for the corresponding affairs of this area.
After Zhang Jiashi led his army back to the mainland of the Great Qin Empire, Han Xin defeated several coalition forces composed of several European powers, mainly the Romans, and ensured the construction and safe development of Western Qin County.
And after these battles, Han Xin confirmed his position as the number one general of the contemporary Great Qin Empire.
Of course, among the generals of Zhang Jiashi's lineage, such as Han Xin and Yingbu, Zhang Jiashi's praise in this regard seems to have forgotten him.
Han Xin and others know very well that Zhang Jiashi does not attach importance to fame, fortune and power, otherwise even if Han Xin has a record far beyond Zhang Jiashi, I am afraid that the name of the famous general of the contemporary First Qin Army will not be Han Xin's turn to lead.
In the martial temple of this world, that is, in the martial temple set up by Emperor Yingxiu of Qin Xuanwu in 39 A.D. in the south of Xianyang City, the statues of Han Xin and Bai Qi are placed on the left and right respectively.
In Zhang Jiashi's Taizu Temple, Han Xin is the head of the twelve generals of the military generals, and Chen Ping is the head of the twelve ministers of the civil officials.
The corresponding rankings of civil and military are:
Civil officials: Chen Ping, Sun Po, Li Zuoche, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Lu Ze, Wang Ling, Cao Shen, Dongfang Ying, Li Shiqi, Yu Ziqi and Wang Yuan.
Generals: Han Xin, Li Xin, Wang Li, Yingbu, Meng Wu, Tu Sui, Li Shang, Chen Heng, Li Xuan, Zhu Jian, Su Jiao and Huan Suo.
This kind of ranking is mainly based on the corresponding evaluation of the core ministers of the Qin Dynasty at that time.
Among them, there are several generals like Su Teng who first joined Zhang Jiashi's command, as well as people such as Mo Shu who made great contributions to the world in the Great Qin Empire and the hegemony of Huanyu.
Of course, this ranking is somewhat "unreasonable" in the middle and behind, but more, there is no doubt that Chen Ping and Han Xin are holding bull's ears, which is well deserved.
Among the celebrities of the early Han Dynasty of the Great Qin Empire, Li Shiqi can be regarded as the most helpless person for Zhang Jiashi. Because Zhang Jiashi could not change the way he died.
And in this respect, it is more caused by the stubbornness of Li Shiqi.
In July 195 BC, on the eve of the second great war between the Great Qin Empire and the Xiongnu, Zhang Jiashi planned to send an envoy to the Xiongnu to paralyze the Xiongnu's will to fight, so that they thought that the Great Qin would not send troops to attack the Xiongnu, whose vitality could not be restored.
According to Chen Ping's suggestion, Zhang Jiashi planned to recruit people who could speak well as envoys among the people.
However, Li Shiqi recommended himself many times, so that Zhang Jiashi could only agree to his request in the end.
It's just that what Li Shiqi didn't expect was that he, who could be regarded as completing the task during the mission, would encounter the same experience as he had in history.
This is something that Zhang Jiashi himself does not want to see, because the attack plan was discovered by the Huns, even if Gai Nie personally shot could not recover the leaked information, out of desperation, Zhang Jiashi could only forcibly launch an offensive against the Huns.
Li Shiqi was also because of this, and was finally killed by the angry Mao Dun Shan Yu
In the end, Zhang Jiashi could only be silent, and ordered to treat Li Shiqi's family favorably.
