Yang Wengzi's corresponding ability to deal with civil affairs was naturally not innate, but after he participated in the battle to destroy Wei, he was subsequently appointed as a county commander away from a certain city subordinate to Wei. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

According to the corresponding criteria for the appointment of county magistrates by the Qin State, Yang Wengzi should have been the head of civil affairs in a small county at that time.

As for why Yang Wengzi became a member of the Northern Frontier Army, it is very likely that it is directly related to the military expansion of the Great Qin Empire around 217 BC.

At that time, Yang Wengzi was likely to have been promoted to the position of county chief or even county guard, and it was not out of nothing that he became the deputy general under Meng Tian in the Battle of Yinshan in Hetao.

It's just that it seems a bit unreasonable to use a county guard as an adjutant, because the county guard of a county, even if he has served as a Mongolian warrior in the internal history, that is, in many battles, he has led troops of less than 200,000 to fight accordingly.

And the general county guard, in terms of the number of troops commanded, should be far inferior to Mengwu. Because whether it is the internal history he once served, or the trust he received from the first emperor, it is not comparable to the ordinary county guard.

But there is no doubt that Yang Wengzi also showed an extraordinary military command talent at this time.

It is said that Yang Duanhe was the elder brother of Yang Wengzi, and when the Qin State conquered the Six Kingdoms for the unification war, it appointed generals, including Yang Duanhe, and achieved achievements including the destruction of Zhao.

......

The pace of the Qin State's battle to destroy Zhao at that time was as follows:

In 236 BC (the eleventh year of the reign of King Qin), the Qin State took advantage of the great war between the Zhao State and the Yan State and the emptiness of the country, and divided the army to attack the Zhao State in two ways. The famous general Wang Jian led an army to capture Yanhe (now Heshun, Shanxi) and Luyang (now Zuoquan, Shanxi), and the generals Huan Qi and Yang Duanhe led an army to capture Ye (now southwest of Linzhang, Hebei) and Anyang (now southwest of Anyang, Henan).

In 234 BC (the thirteenth year of the reign of King Qin), Huan Qi led his army to attack Pingyang (now southeast of Ci County, Hebei) and Wucheng (now southwest of Ci County, Hebei), killing Zhao generals, beheading 100,000, defeating Zhao army and occupying the city.

In 233 B.C. (the 14th year of the reign of King Qin), Huan Qi waved his army across the Taihang Mountains, occupied Chili and Yi'an (now southeast of Shijiazhuang, Hebei), and attacked the hinterland of Zhao. King Zhao hurriedly transferred Li Mu, a famous general who was defending the border of the Xiongnu in the north, and led his troops to resist Qin, and defeated the Qin army at Fei (now west of Jinzhou, Hebei). Huan Qi fled from the Yan in fear of sin.

In 232 BC (the fifteenth year of the reign of King Qin), the Qin army attacked Ye and Langmeng (now Yangqu, Shanxi) and Fanwu (now southwest of Lingshou, Hebei) in two ways, but was also defeated by Li Mujun. However, the Zhao army also suffered heavy losses and had to retreat to the capital Handan (in present-day Hebei).

After that, the Qin army rested for three years. In 230 BC (the seventeenth year of the reign of King Qin), when the Qin army wiped out Korea, the state of Zhao encountered a severe drought, the country lacked food, and the people's hearts fluctuated. After stabilizing the situation in the occupied areas and transforming the Han land into Yingchuan County, the Qin State immediately transferred its troops to the Zhao State, and in 229 BC (the eighteenth year of the reign of the Qin Dynasty), he sent troops to attack the Zhao State from two directions by taking advantage of the great famine of the Zhao State. Wang Jian led the troops from Shangdi (present-day northern Shaanxi), Qiang led the Qiang troops out of Jingcheng (present-day Jingshanxi, Hebei), and Yang Duanhe led the troops from Hanoi (present-day Xinxiang, Henan) to attack Handan from the north and south. King Zhao sent Li Mu and Sima Shang to lead an army to resist. Li Mu still adopted the policy of building fortifications and avoiding hasty decisive battles. The Qin army was repeatedly invincible, forming a stalemate.

Wang Jian took advantage of the ignorance of Zhao Wangqian, the weakness of his favored retainer Guo Kai's greed for money and profit, and his jealousy of the virtuous and jealous, and used counter-plots. Zhao Wangqian listened to the slander, and ordered Zhao Cong and Yan Ju to replace Li Mu and Sima Shang as generals. Li Mu refused to accept the order and was killed by Zhao Wangqian. Li Mu governed the army in a good way, cared for his subordinates, lived and fought with officers and soldiers in the border defense for many years, and was quite morale-friendly, but after being killed, the army was disheartened and the army disintegrated.

In March 228 BC (the nineteenth year of the reign of King Qin), Wang Jian's army took advantage of the momentum to attack fiercely, defeated the Zhao army in one fell swoop, killed Zhao Cong, and occupied Dongyang (east of Taihang Mountain). Yan Ju fled in fear. In October, Wang Jian and Qiang's army broke through Handan and captured Zhao Wangqian. Zhao Gongzijia led hundreds of members of the clan to flee to the dynasty (now Sibei, Wei County, Hebei) and established himself as king. But at this time, the state of Zhao had already existed in name only, and the state of Qin set up Handan County in Zhao.

The Zhao army and the Yan army were jointly stationed in Shanggu Yishui (northwest of present-day Huailai, Hebei) in an attempt to prevent the Qin army from continuing northward. In 227 BC (the twentieth year of the reign of King Qin), it was defeated by the Qin army. In 222 BC (the twenty-fifth year of the reign of King Qin), Wang Ben, the son of Wang Qian, led the army to destroy the remnants of Yan and Zhao, broke the dynasty and captured Wang Jia. The state of Zhao was completely destroyed.

......

From these records, we can see several key points, Li Mu, the last famous general of Zhao, did not participate in the war against Qin before 233 BC, and in other words, in 233 BC, the territory around Jiuyuan in Yunzhong of Zhao at that time should still be under the control of Zhao.

This means that the Qin state established the two counties of Jiuyuan in Yunzhong later, in fact, later than 234 BC, perhaps between 232 BC and 229 BC.

In terms of the performance of several famous generals of the Qin State who attacked the Zhao State, although Li Mu defeated the famous generals of the Qin army including Huan Qi, the gap between the combat effectiveness of the Qin army and the Zhao army was too large, and the Zhao State won more times than a disastrous victory, and the national strength was further weakened by the Qin State.

"Historical Records: Qin Shi Huang Benji":

For ten years, Xiangguo Lu Buwei was spared. Huan Qi is a general.

In the thirteenth year, Huan Qi attacked Zhao Pingyang, killed Zhao Jiang, and beheaded 100,000. Wang's Henan. In the first month, the comet sees the east. In October, Huan Qi attacked Zhao. In the fourteenth year, he attacked the Zhao army in Pingyang, took Yi'an, broke it, and killed its general. Huan Qi Dingpingyang, Wucheng.

"Information Governance Guide":

In the eleventh year, the generals Wang Qian, Huan Qi, Yang Duan and Zhao attacked Ye and took nine cities. Wang Jian attacked Yan and Yiyang, and Huan Qi took Ye and Anyang.

In the thirteenth year, Huan Qi attacked Zhao, defeated Zhao and killed Hu Yu in Pingyang, beheaded 100,000 people, and killed Hu Yu. King Zhao took Li Mu as the general, resumed the battle in Yi'an and Feixia, the Qin division was defeated, and Huan Qi ran back. Zhao Feng Li Mu was Wu Anjun.

In the fourteenth year, Huan Qi attacked Zhao and took Yi'an, Pingyang and Wucheng.

"Warring States Policy: Zhao Ce IV":

Qin made Wang Jian attack Zhao, and Zhao made Li Mu and Sima Shang Yuzhi. Li Mushu broke the Qin army and killed the Qin general Huan Qi.

In the corresponding records of the Battle of the Annihilation of Zhao, the results recorded by Huan Qi in the historical books are different:

In the historical records, it is vaguely believed that Huan Qi and the rebel general Fan Yuzhi are the same person, but in the Warring States Policy, Huan Qi was defeated and killed in the battle with Li Mu between three months and half a year before Li Mu was killed:

Qin made Wang Jian attack Zhao, and Zhao made Li Mu and Sima Shang Yuzhi. Li Mushu broke the Qin army and killed the Qin general Huan Qi. Wang Jian was evil, and he and Guo Kai, the favored minister of King Zhao, waited for gold, so that they were opposed, saying: "Li Mu and Sima Shang want to oppose Zhao with Qin, so as to take more from Qin." "King Zhao was suspicious, so Zhao Cong and Yan were the most representative generals, beheaded Li Mu, and abolished Sima Shang. In the next three months, Wang Jian broke Zhao because of a rapid attack, killed the Zhao army, captured Zhao Wang Qian and his general Yan Shi, and destroyed Zhao.

Therefore, if the Warring States Policy is used as the standard of the Warring States History Book, the probability that Huan Qi and Fan Yuzhi are the same person is very low.

......

Opposite to Huan Qi were two other famous generals of the Qin army, who were Yang Duan and He Qiang.

Both of them are famous generals who have a place in the history books:

Yang Duanhe first appeared in 238 BC, at this time Qin Wangzheng was already in power under the protection of the Chang Wenjun brothers and the "royalist party" of the Qin State at that time:

Nine years, the comet sees, or the sky. Attack Weiyuan and Puyang. In April, Shangsu Yong. Ji You, crown, with a sword. Changxin Hou Yu made a mess and felt that the imperial seal of the king and the queen mother were sent to the county guards and guards, official horses, Rong Zhai Jungong, and Sheren, and they wanted to attack the Qi Nian Palace for chaos. Wang Zhizhi ordered Xiangguo Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun to attack. Fighting Xianyang, beheading hundreds, all of them were worshippers, and the eunuchs were all in the war, and they were also worshipped at the first level. Wait for defeat and leave. That is, in the middle of the country: if there is a person who is born, he will give a million dollars, and if he is killed, he will be given 500,000 yuan. Wait. Twenty people, including Wei Wei Quan, Nei Shi Shi, Zuo Yi Quan, and Zhong Dafu Ling Qi, were all killed. The car is cracked to destroy its sect. and give up people, and the light one is a ghost salary. and seized the title and moved more than 4,000 families to Shu, and the family house mausoleum. It was the moon that froze, and there were dead. Yang Duan and Attack Yan. The comet saw the west, and the north, eighty days south of the bucket.

In the eleventh year, Wang Qian, Huan Qi, Yang Duan and attacked Ye and took nine cities.

In the eighteenth year, the Daxing army attacked Zhao, Wang Jian will go to the ground, go down to the well, Duanhe will Hanoi, Qiang will cut Zhao, and Duanhe will besiege Handan City.

Of course, it is undeniable that the Qin army may have taken a decision to fight for revenge after the defeat and death of Huan Qi's soldiers.

One thing that is very interesting is that in terms of Yang Duanhe's records of the siege of Handan, Li Mu was very likely to have died at that time, and if it weren't for Li Mu's death, it would have been very difficult for Yang Duanhe to besiege Handan at this time.

And there is one more interesting point, that is, since it is Yang Duan and besieging Handan, then ...... Was it Wang Jian or Yang Duanhe who forced King Zhao to open the door and surrender?

......

And there is also a famous general recorded in the history books, that is, Qiang.

In 230 BC (the seventeenth year of the reign of King Qin), there was a great drought in Zhao, the country lacked food, and people's hearts fluctuated. After stabilizing the situation in the occupied areas and rebuilding the Han land into Yingchuan County, the Qin State immediately transferred its troops to the Zhao State.

In 229 BC (the eighteenth year of the reign of King Qin), Qiang attacked Zhao. Wang Jian led the troops from Shangdi (present-day northern Shaanxi), Qiang led the Qiang troops out of Jingcheng (present-day Jingshanxi, Hebei), and Yang Duanhe led the troops from Hanoi (present-day Xinxiang, Henan) to attack Handan from the north and south. King Zhao sent Li Mu and Sima Shang to lead an army to resist. Li Mu still adopted the policy of building fortifications and avoiding hasty decisive battles. The Qin army was repeatedly invincible, forming a stalemate

In March 228 BC, Wang Jian's army took advantage of the momentum to attack and defeated the Zhao army in one fell swoop, killed Zhao Onion, and occupied Dongyang (east of Taihang Mountain). Yan Ju fled in fear.

In October 228 BC (the nineteenth year of the reign of King Qin), Wang Jian and Qiang's army broke through Handan and captured Zhao Wangqian. Zhao Gongzijia led hundreds of members of the clan to flee to the dynasty (now Sibei, Wei County, Hebei) and established himself as king. The state of Qin set up Handan County in Zhao.

Well...... There seems to be more and more talk about who actually broke through Handan. But what Zhang Jiashi cares about is...... According to some later generations, Qiang is Li Xin's wife......

(PS: This is a bit far-fetched, but it has nothing to do with a certain day.) ）

However, in fact, of course, Zhang Jiashi would not ask his general directly, because he really didn't plan to be sprayed directly by his general......

This does not mean that Zhang Jiashi has no channels to know about this situation, after asking Huan Feng, Huan Feng made it clear that whether it is Yang Duanhe or Qiang, they are all stout men.

......

During the Warring States period, the Qin State did not have female generals, which was based on the military merit system.

The absence of female generals does not mean that the status of women in the Qin State is not high.

Among them, in addition to the women who have a relationship with the Qin royal family, the most famous woman in the period of the First Emperor was not Xu Cheng, the little Lori, but the widow Qing.

Ba widow Qing, the name is clear, Ba is the meaning of Ba County, the surname can not be examined, so Ba is the surname, also called Ba Qing, today (longevity thousand Buddhas) people. The earliest female entrepreneur in China, it is said that her wealth is about 800 million taels of silver and 5.8 million taels of red gold, and she is also the "eldest sister" in the eyes of Qin Shi Huang, who once spent a huge amount of money to build the Great Wall and provide a large amount of mercury for the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. In her later years, she was accepted into the palace and was named a "virgin". "Historical Records: The Biography of the Goods and Colonies" contains: "The widow of Ba Qing, she first got the Dan cave, and she was good at it for several generations, and her family was not happy. Clear, widows are also able to keep their inheritance, defend themselves with money, and do not violate them. Emperor Qin thought that he was a virgin and a guest, and he was pregnant with a clear platform for a woman. Widows in poor villages, courteous and resistant, and famous in the world, aren't they rich and evil?"

Because of Sima Qian's words "Emperor Qin used his virginity as a guest to build a woman and conceived a clear platform", some people relied on rich imagination to say that Ba Widow Qing used pills to please Qin Shi Huang and won favor, and came to the conclusion that she was a "witch" with easy learning. This is a demonization and distortion of the Ba widow. Although Sima Qian did not explain the reason why Ba Qing received the highest courtesy from Qin Shi Huang, we can draw a possibility from our analysis. The widow lost her husband at an early age and did not remarry in order to inherit the family business. In Chinese history, the Qin and Han dynasties were relatively open on gender issues, and it was common for women to remarry after losing their husbands, and some remarried many times without criticism. As recorded in the family of Prime Minister Chen Cheng, Chen Ping's wife Zhang was the daughter of Zeng Kewufu, that is, Chen Ping was her sixth husband. The main reason why the Ba widow Qing did not remarry in her life was to support the huge family business, not to be a "virgin" during the festival. She was not a "witch", she received the highest courtesy from Qin Shi Huang, and it is likely that in her later years she donated all her wealth to the Great Wall project, and at the same time provided a large amount of cinnabar and mercury for Qin Shi Huang's Lishan Mausoleum. Therefore, Qin Shi Huang was very moved, welcomed her to Xianyang guest house to live in peace, and built a "Huaiqing Terrace" for her to show her brilliance.

Ba widow Qing, there is a record of "Historical Records: There is a widow named "Qing", several generations of monopoly of dansha mining business, Qin Shi Huang once built a luxurious monument for her - Huaiqing Terrace, in recognition of her "chastity".

In Sima Qian's "Historical Records: The Biography of the Goods and Colonies", there are only a few words about the Ba widow Qing, which also left many difficult mysteries for later generations.

First, during the Qin and Han dynasties, the municipality of Chongqing was Badi, and the Ba widow Qing was obviously from Chongqing, but where did she belong to Chongqing?

In the Jin Dynasty Chang Ju's "Huayang Guozhi Ba Zhi", it is said that the Ba widow Qing Naiba County (now Fuling) was a native of Tong County, "Changshou County Chronicles" therefore identified her as a longevity person. Peng Shui once found that the Ba widow Qing specially stored weapons in the warehouse, and the arsenal was surrounded by alchemy ruins, so he also found a lot of arguments to prove that she was from Peng Shui. Some scholars believe that she may have been from Youyang or Qianjiang. Because the records in the historical books are very vague, the mystery of the life history of the Ba widow Qing seems to be only speculated and analyzed by later generations based on various clues.

Second, historical records record that Ba Qing lost his husband at an early age, and was widowed for life and never married. Qin Shi Huang praised Ba Qing as a "virgin" in recognition of her chastity, and built the "Huaiqing Terrace" for her, inviting her to the capital Xianyang to enjoy her old age. Moreover, Ba Qing was also allowed to "legally" own a large private army.

It is understood that during the Qin and Han dynasties, the concept of chastity in women's ethics was not advocated as a national ideology, and it was common for women to remarry. During the Qin and Han dynasties, gender relations in China were always very "open", and Qin Shi Huang's mother was a typical example of sexual promiscuity.

In the Qin Dynasty, which is known for its ****, there was a businesswoman who raised a large private army, which can also show that the widow Qing had a very high status during the Qin Empire. (To be continued.) )
