Chapter 13 Qin Hou Ziying
"Meet the King of Chu!"
Ziying said respectfully.
Xiang Yu put down the bamboo slip and looked carefully at the former Qin king, who was also the third Qin in history.
The child is forty-two years old, already an old man, very old, the elder of Qin Shi Huang, his father is King Qin Xiaowen, his mother is a palace maid, and his concubine was born.
At the time of King Qin Zhao's death, he was only a few years old, a few years younger than Qin Shi Huang.
King Qin Xiaowen, who succeeded to the throne for three days, died; King Xiang of Qin Zhuang, who died after reigning for three years; Then Qin Shi Huang succeeded to the throne and annexed the world.
In the long history, Ziying, as a side branch of the clan, was only responsible for some sacrificial things because of his high seniority.
When Qin II killed his brother and sister, Ziying advised, but the result was useless.
In the end, Qin II was killed by Zhao Gao.
Ziying was the king of Qin, and killed Zhao Gao to regain power, but unfortunately, everything came too late.
In the Battle of Lantian, the Qin army fought against Pei Gong's army, but the Qin army was defeated and Ziying surrendered.
"Ziying, how are you doing?" Xiang Yu asked.
Ziying said: "Thank you, the king, for preserving the temple of Qin Guozong, and there will be no heirs!" β
Extermination is a more terrifying thing than destroying a country and breaking a family.
Therefore, it is important to preserve the temples and the tombs of the ancestors.
The murderous Manchu Qing Dynasty also buried Chongzhen and protected the tombs of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.
Xiang Yu said: "I don't understand, when Pei Gong entered the Wuguan, there were only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and there was still a lack of training and incomplete equipment; But in Xianyang, there are more than 100,000 craftsmen in the back, and there are as many as 100,000 elites of the Qin army stationed in Xianyang! β
"During the Battle of Lantian, the 100,000 Qin army fought against Peigong's 20,000 army, why did the Qin army lose. Even if the Qin army is invincible, but the city of Xianyang is tall, the grain and grass are sufficient, it is not difficult to hold Xianyang, at that time, the Qin army in Longxi, the Qin army in Hanzhong, all came to the rescue, and the Peigong army will face the danger of annihilation! β
The main force of the Qin army, under the leadership of Zhang Han and Wang Li, went north to attack Zhao State, and the Julu Battle.
But there are also 100,000 elite troops in Xianyang, and it is not so easy to steal the house.
Ziying said: "The Qin army that stayed in Xianyang was about 200,000, scattered everywhere, and there were about 100,000 left in Xianyang; There are also 100,000 who stay in Bashu, and about 100,000 who stay in Longxi...... Pei Gong led the army to kill Wuguan and arrived at Lantian, less than 100 miles away from Xianyang. β
"At that time, the 100,000 Qin army faced off against the 20,000 Pei Gong, and the Qin army had the advantage, but it was a pity that Pei Gong issued three chapters of the covenant, and said that he would abolish the harsh government of the Qin Dynasty...... Just after a moment of confrontation, there was a mutiny of the Qin army, the whole army collapsed, and Lantian was defeated! β
"The whole world is anti-centered, but the people of the old Qin don't want to fight anymore ......"
Ziying sighed.
Xiang Yu was silent.
The people are in turmoil, and the team is not easy to lead.
Ziying continued: "At that time, some courtiers persuaded me to retreat to Longxi, where the old Qin people used to make a comeback, but I refused, because the people's hearts were in turmoil...... Go out of the city and surrender to Pei Gong! β
Xiang Yu was silent: "Qin II, why did you die!" β
Ziying said: "This is all the fault of the first emperor!" The First Emperor succeeded to the throne, but he was only thirteen years old, but the situation was stable at that time, there was the Prime Minister's faction of Prime Minister LΓΌ Buwei, the Empress Dowager Huayang, Chang Wenjun, Changping Jun and other relatives from the Chu State, and the power of the Qin State Office, the three major factions, confronting each other, and each had its own scruples, and the First Emperor could calmly wait for the pro-government! β
"After the pro-government, with the help of the Qin Dynasty Office and LΓΌ Buwei, etc., the forces of Zhao Ji and Chang Yu were destroyed; With the help of the power of relatives and the power of the office, he destroyed the power of LΓΌ Buwei and took power! β
"But when the second emperor succeeded to the throne, there were no relatives to rely on, but it was necessary to cut off the prime minister's forces and the public office forces in advance, after the destruction of these two forces, the second emperor was unprecedentedly isolated and could only rely on Zhao Gao, and as a result, Zhao Gao's power was great, resulting in the second emperor being killed!"
Ziying told the story of the battle between the court of the Qin State.
Xiang Yu became interested.
Ziying continued: "The court of the Qin State has the power of the office, the power of the prime minister, and the power of foreign relatives, and the three forces restrain each other, and the King of Qin controls these three forces to control the Qin State. β
"Maybe at some point, some forces will grow and shrink the power of King Qin, but there are other two forces to restrain them, and they cannot be overpowered, or even usurp the throne. Relying on the separation of powers, the Qin kings of the past dynasties were stable and accepted power. But after the arrival of the First Emperor, everything changed. β
"Queen Qin, Empress Dowager Qin and other relatives are mostly from the Chu State, and even the queen of Qin Shi Huang is also the princess of the Chu State, but with the battle to destroy Chu, the relatives suffered a blow.
In particular, the rebellion of Changping Jun (some like joining the Guo Party in 49) completely destroyed the Chu relatives. β
"The first emperor has never set up an empress, which has also led to the existence of no foreign relatives. Only the power of the prime minister and the power of the public office have led to political instability. β
"Qin Shi Huang swayed left and right in the selection of his heir, and he attached great importance to Fusu, otherwise he would not let him control the Great Wall Corps; But with Hu Hai by his side, he is carefully cultivated, and he is also the heir. β
"This gives a lot of courtiers, wrong signals. Some ministers sided with Fusu; Some sided with Hu Hai, which exacerbated the political instability.
After Hu Hai ascended to the throne, he began to purge the Fusu faction, and many ministers were affected. β
Originally, Zhao Gao was the prime minister's faction, but with the help of the turmoil, he purged many giants of the prime minister's faction, cleaned the office faction, and completely lost control of the situation.
Purge the corresponding factions and take power, there is no mistake.
King Qin Zhao did this, Qin Shi Huang did this, and Hu Hai did not make a mistake in doing this, but after purging the faction, he did not take power, but was hollowed out, which caused turmoil in the situation. β
The child sighed.
Xiang Yu had some understanding.
Only when the power of the imperial court is balanced can the throne be crowned; The power of the dynasty is unbalanced, the throne is unstable, and he may even be killed.
However, it is also related to the extravagance of some people.
King Qin Zhao is a rich generation, who worked hard to start a business and laid a great foundation; Qin Shi Huang is a rich second generation, with a rich family background, but he can squander it, do big things, and do a lot of ruined things, because his family is rich, and he will not be defeated for a while.
Qin II is the third generation of the rich, and he took over the mess of the rich second generation, but he has no capital to continue to spend lavishly, and he must be diligent and thrifty to maintain the situation.
But Qin II continued to lose his family and continued to spend lavishly, so he lost all his family property and the company went bankrupt.
Xiang Yu said again: "Hu Hai sent people to help Su commit suicide...... At that time, if Fusu did not commit suicide, but directly raised troops and led the Great Wall Corps to the south, the Qing monarch side, may not be able to take away the throne? β
Ziying said: "At that time, Hu Hai had already controlled the Xianyang Forbidden Army, and he asked the guards to use the Tiger Talisman to take over the Great Wall Corps, Fusu, and Meng Tian only had a few descendants of soldiers and horses to follow!" β
"If Fusu commits suicide, he can still save the lives of his subordinates; If Fusu rebels, the Great Wall Corps will kill Fusu, Meng Tian and others...... They don't have a choice! β
Whether it is Fusu or Meng Tian, they are just generals, not warlords, and they have limited control over the army...... As long as the emperor gives an order, he can take away the military power.
They don't stand a chance!
