How to plow thousands of miles for the first emperor's cub Section 438
"The first king also has a bad temper in matters involving Changping Jun. Do you remember the families who abandoned the city? ”
"Oh, I remember. Those families said a few gossips about Changpingjun, and they were abandoned by the first king. The gentleman just beat a few words and belittled people, and his temper was not bad. ”
People who originally thought that Qin Wangzheng was willful and tyrannical suddenly sighed that Qin Wangzheng was still good-tempered when they thought of what Qin Prince Chu had done for Changping Jun.
Changping Jun is only a friend of Qin Prince Chu, but Changping Jun is Qin Wangzheng's adoptive father. It stands to reason that Qin Wangzheng should deal with someone who targeted Changping Jun more seriously.
After Qin Wangzheng learned about these gossips, he was so angry that he found Zhu Xiang and thought about it for a long time.
Does he not want to abandon people? Isn't that an excuse not been found!
The father abandoned the city, and he really found evidence that the other party had fornicated with foreign countries. I...... The widows didn't find it, they really just had broken mouths!
Zhu Xiang was full of relief.
If it is an ordinary King of Qin, if he is in a bad mood, he can give death to a heavy minister.
Zheng'er is now only increasing the punishment according to the real guilt of the other party. It seems that the influence of his words and deeds on Zheng'er is not completely absent.
What he didn't know was that Qin Wangzheng had a small notebook where he wrote down the names of people who spoke ill of his uncle, and prepared to target them slowly in the future.
Uncle doesn't admire power and money, he is only dedicated to Qin Guo and himself, and everyone who says bad things about his uncle must have a problem.
This teaching was actually told to Yingzheng by King Qin Zhaoxiang, who was the most suspicious of Zhu Xiang.
Changping Jun Zhu Xiang, a convenient minister screener.
In the year of the death of the Qin prince Chu, everything was fine. The Qin monarchy methodically gathered power and established prestige.
The young ministers who originally wanted to bully Qin Wangzheng realized that Qin Wangzheng was worthy of being a prodigy who helped Chang Pingjun manage household affairs at the age of five or six as rumored, and the appearance of an old-fashioned monarch made the ministers breathless, as if he had been a monarch for many years.
Some old ministers who have lived from King Qin Zhaoxiang to the present sighed, no wonder King Qin Zhaoxiang was very happy when he saw King Qin now. Today's King Qin is really very similar to King Qin Zhaoxiang.
The state of Qin has gone through the transition of two generations of relatively mild Qin kings, King Qin Renwen and Qin Prince Chu, and now it is finally about to usher in a domineering hero.
However, some people say that Prince Chu of Qin is not a gentle King of Qin. It's just that he happened to encounter a few years of famine, and he was forced to recuperate.
No matter how the ministers discussed it in private, they reluctantly accepted a fact. Qin Wangzheng is not a good Qin king, and I am afraid that the future will not be easy.
Some Confucian disciples found Xunzi and were worried that Qin Wangzheng was too domineering and would not practice benevolent governance.
Xunzi didn't bother to pay attention.
If we want to practice benevolent government, we must wait until the world is unified. Now the Qin State just needs a king with thunderous means.
Everyone thought that after Qin Wangzheng ascended the throne, he would definitely recuperate for another year or two, and then continue to make big moves after he gained a firm foothold in the court.
No one expected that just after the autumn harvest, Qin Wangzheng had not changed the yuan, so he ordered Xinping Junlian to attack Wei.
Last year, the supply of grain and grass was insufficient, and after Lian Po opened the passage from Qin to Qi, although he did not continue to attack Daliang, he stayed in the newly captured Wei county to preside over Tuntian.
Lian Po was only responsible for fighting wars when he was in Zhao State, and now he is very accustomed to Tuntian and Fumin.
In order to completely digest the newly laid city for the Qin State, he did not return to Xianyang to send the Qin prince Chu a ride, nor did he see the Qin Wangzheng ascend the throne with his own eyes.
Qin Wangzheng's reason for going to war was very perfunctory, but it was also impeccable.
He said that this war is a continuation of the previous one. At that time, the king of Wei died of illness, and his father retired due to the mourning of Wei. Now that the mourning of Wei has passed, it is time to continue attacking Wei.
When King Zhaoxiang of Qin was strong, Wang Yu of Wei was once forced to submit to the state of Qin. After that, Qin and Wei didn't mention this matter much, and they continued to fight when it was time to fight. For the first time, Qin Wangzheng took the trouble to mention this matter.
Qin Wangzheng said that the king of Wei once called Qin a vassal, that is, a vassal state of Qin, and had a relationship with Qin as a monarch and a minister.
When Wei suffered a locust plague, out of the responsibility of the suzerain, the king of Qin also specially informed the king of Wei and the prince of Wei about the matter, hoping that Wei could take more precautions.
But Wei Guoen took revenge, and actually attacked Qin with the other four countries when the Qin State was finished destroying locusts and the Qin Prince Chu was seriously ill.
Qin was the suzerainty of Wei, and Wei's attack on Qin was disloyal; The king of Qin had provided (verbal) assistance to Wei when it was plagued by locusts, and it was unjust for Wei to attack Qin.
Such a disloyal and unrighteous country, the first king naturally sent troops to fight against it.
However, when Wei Wangyu died of illness, the first king still recalled the army of Qin, and did not take advantage of the danger of people during the national mourning of Wei, which was the righteousness of Qin to Wei.
Now that the national mourning of Wei has passed, as the successor of the king of Qin, he should crusade against Wei again.
Qin Wangzheng summoned the great Confucian, who repaired the book, and asked them to write a pen for the Qin State to write a text for the Wei State.
Qin's attack on Wei was a dignified "righteous war", and Wei deserved to be beaten and destroyed!
Daru was shocked.
They were not shocked by Qin Wangzheng's cheekiness, but moved that before the war between the two countries in the first few years, there was actually a monarch who was willing to write a letter and declare war.
At the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, when countries were fighting wars, they would find an excuse to write a proclamation and follow etiquette.
At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, when various countries were annexed, what was important was the speed of the soldiers, and they would attack if they could.
What declaration of war? What inscriptions? Wu Anjun's white soldiers all arrived at your city gate, and you found that the Qin State was coming.
Qin Wangzheng is worthy of being a child who grew up on the lap of the great Confucian Xunzi, this is the Confucian holy king!
Xunzi: "......"
He was speechless about the politics of King Qin.
That's how you use my Confucianism?
Forget it, it's okay. The Qin State will definitely destroy the other five countries, and the Qin Wangzheng can declare war and write a document before destroying the country, you can say that this moral standard and etiquette level can rank first in the Warring States, right?
Xunzi thought about it like this, and felt that Zheng'er was still good, and he didn't teach him in vain.
Zhu Xiang gave a thumbs up to Qin Wangzheng's self-taught use of the "Confucian pen" technique.
Needless to say, the capable Confucian, that is a talent who will enter the phase.
The incompetent Confucian is awkward to come and go, just to earn a face of "the king loves me very much".
The King of Qin handed over such important things as the text to those Confucians who had no ability, giving them the illusion that "I am very important", just like the emperor of later generations raised a group of literati who accompanied him to write poems and lyrics, and he was not worried about them disrupting the government and politics, but also could raise his own prestige.
Moreover, the Qin State changed the norm of sending troops this time, and made the etiquette of declaring war ten into ten, that grand gesture, if supplemented by a hundred battles and victories, even if it was an old nobleman of the Six Kingdoms, he had to sigh "Mandate of Heaven".
This time, his own housekeeper really rushed to the "righteous war" to package the unification war of the Qin State.
Zhu Xiang sighed with emotion, shook his head, and went to mobilize materials and prepare logistics.
Grain and grass go first in the war, although Lian Gong has Tuntian, but Zhu Xiang is there, how can he let Lian Gong fight a rich battle.
After Wei Wangzeng received the declaration of war by the Qin State, he panicked, and sent people to ask for help from other countries, and at the same time sent people to beg for mercy from the Qin State.
He also sent the original disciple of Wei Wuji, the king of Xinling, to lobby Zhu Xiang, trying to use the friendship between Wei Wuji and Zhu Xiang to force Zhu Xiang to intercede for Wei.
After listening to Wei Wuji's generous statement, Zhu Xiang said lightly: "It was my fault that I didn't break through the beam before Wei Wangyu's death and took Wei Wangyu to kowtow in front of Wuji's grave." When Wuji was forced to die, Wei and the King of Wei should be buried for Wuji. Zhu Hai is guarding the tomb of Wuji in Wu County, waiting for the day when the Wei State will fall. ”
Wei Wuji's generous statement was blocked back by Zhu Xiang's words or two, and his face changed constantly, as if he didn't believe that Changping Jun was actually not deceived by him.
Seeing the man's expression, Zhu Xiang sneered: "But your words have reminded me, should I personally lead the troops to attack the Wei State?" ”
Before Zhu Xiang could send off the guest, Wei Wuji left in shame.
After he left, he lamented that the world knew that Changping Jun was benevolent, so he mistakenly thought that he was a weak and deceitful person. The world has forgotten that Changping Jun once persuaded King Qin Zhaoxiang to release 500,000 Zhao troops alone, and also defeated Xiang Yan's million Chu army with 20,000 Guangling defenders.
He said that he couldn't convince Changping Jun, but he was persuaded by Changping Jun, so he hung up the seal and fled, did not return to Wei, and went south to find his father Xinlingjun.
Changpingjun rose to fame again.
Qin Wangzheng commented: "Uncle, the purpose of this person's coming to Qin shouldn't be specifically to make a name for you and disgust King Wei, right?" ”
Zhu Xiang didn't answer. He was thinking, where did Changping get the 500,000 Zhao army, and where did Xiang Yan get the million Chu army.
Chapter 244: The Great Liang Moat
Zhu Xiang admits that he is not a good-tempered person. I don't know why others say he has a good temper.
If he has a good temper, will he go to Changping? Will you do it if you don't accept it in Guangling City?
In the past, he didn't want to go to the battlefield to kill people, but now that he has become a famous general, he has long abandoned his former moral bottom line. The King of Wei actually sent Wei Wuji's disciples to disgust him, and wanted to continue to use Wei Wuji, who was forced to die, but Zhu Xiang couldn't bear it.
He took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Daliang to wave the flag and shout for Lian Gong.
Qin Wangzheng was puzzled: "Just waving the flag and shouting?" Uncle, aren't you the main commander? ”
Zhu Xiang said angrily: "Zheng'er, what stupid thing are you talking about?" After sitting on the chair where Xia Tong sat for a long time, has your head degenerated into Xia Tong? The real level of my famous general, others don't know, you don't know? ”
Qin Wangzheng had already left an impression among the courtiers that he was scheming and moody, but in the face of his uncle, his emotions would always fluctuate greatly.
"What does it mean that the head degenerates into a father? I'm so much better than my father! Ying Xiaozheng glared at his uncle angrily, "Uncle, if you say that again, I won't let you go to Daliang!" ”
Zhu Xiang immediately apologized: "Okay, my uncle is wrong, how can Xia Tong compare with Zheng'er?" ”
Ying Xiaozheng then turned back to Qin Wangzheng and ordered Prime Minister Chang Pingjun to personally escort the grain and grass to Daliang, and persuaded him to surrender by the way.
The few are kind, and they can't see too many casualties.
If the Great Liang is lowered, the widow guarantees that the Qin army will not be chaotic in the Great Liang, and the military discipline of Xinping Jun Lianpo is notoriously strict.
Zhu Xiang endured the discomfort of heavy casualties in the siege battle, and he also had to witness the fate of Wei with his own eyes. As soon as Qin Wangzheng made false words, the world immediately misunderstood that Chang Pingjun couldn't bear the tragic situation that Daliang was about to encounter, and specially came to save Daliang.
Qin Wangzheng said that the widow is kind, and in the ears of the world, it is the heart of King Qin, tiger and leopard.
Qin Wangzheng said that Xinping Jun's military discipline was strict, and the world remembered the tyranny of Xinping Jun's Tuyan City.
Changping Jun obviously knew what kind of people the embarrassed monarchs and ministers of King Qin and Xin Pingjun were, and he was worried that Daliang City would be ruined, so he specially came to persuade him to surrender.
When Zhu Xiang arrived at Daliang, it happened that Daliang was really almost ruined.
When Daliang City was built, it relied on five rivers such as Danshui to surround Daliang City and become a natural moat network.
The city wall of Daliang City is high and strong, and there is a dense water network outside the city wall, which is difficult to use siege equipment, and it is difficult to arrange the soldiers, which is very easy to defend and difficult to attack.
In history, Wang Ben, the son of Wang Qian, did not attack Daliang when he attacked it, but directly used the natural moat of Daliang City to divert the water of the Yellow River and the chasm to flood Daliang City.
Such a simple method, Lian Po also found out after riding a horse around Daliang City.
When Lian Po saw the weakness of Daliang City, he was quite puzzled.
When he was a general, it was the most domineering time for King Qin Zhaoxiang, so he often fought defensive battles, and he was the best at building fortresses.
Building a fort line is similar to building a city, but it's different in size.
So he couldn't understand why Daliang City was built in the low-lying part of the plain at the confluence of five rivers, wasn't this specifically to attract people to attack? Is there something wrong with the brains of the person who is in charge of the repair?
Of course, it is fine to use a natural water system as a moat, but firstly, the city should be high, and secondly, the castle should be able to drain water even after the embankment bursts.
