Why is Qin Shihuang the most miserable person in history?

In 247 BC, King Xiang of Qin Zhuang died, and Ying Zheng, who was 13 years old, was made King of Qin. At that time, Lv Buwei was the prime minister of Qin, and he was good at taking power. When the King of Qin ascended the throne, he was young, and Lv Buwei was revered as Guanzhong, and the affairs of state were all controlled by Lv Buwei. In the first 239 years, the king of Qin was 2 1 year old and was about to take power, but at this time, the court of Qin State was engaged in a fierce political struggle.

At first, Lv Buwei not only controlled the imperial court, but also had an affair with the Empress Dowager (Evonne). Later, seeing that the King of Qin was old, he was afraid of being discovered by him, wanted to leave the Queen Mother, and was afraid of the Queen Mother's resentment, so he put his guest Lao Ai on a corrupt fake torture device and only pulled out his beard and eyebrows to give the Queen Mother lewd enjoyment.

Lao Ai, the king of Qin, said that the Queen Mother's bedroom was not feng shui, so she had to move out of here. With the permission of the king of Qin, they moved to the palace in Yong county, and the queen mother gave birth to two illegitimate children. Lao Ai also pretended to be the fake father of the King of Qin. Lao Ai was drunk and scolded a minister: "I am the fake father of the King of Qin, how dare you provoke me.

The minister was very angry after hearing this, and secretly found an opportunity to tell Qin about the relationship between Lao Ai and the Queen Mother. Qin was very angry when he learned that, and Lao Ai panicked and prepared to rebel. At that time, Lao Ai, with the help of Empress Dowager Cixi, was given the title of Long Xinhou, and he owned, Taiyuan and other places, and collected his own henchmen. Lao Ai has been operating in Yongcheng for many years, and has established a huge force, which is a powerful political force of Qin after Lv Buwei.

In 238 BC, the king of Qin held a coronation ceremony at Nian Palace in Yongcheng. Lao Ai rebelled with the imperial seal of the King of Qin and the imperial seal of Empress Dowager Cixi, and captured the Palace of Prayer for the Year. The king of Qin has arranged 3000 elite soldiers in the Prayer Palace to defeat the rebels. Lao Ai moved to Xianyang Palace, where there was already an army. Lao Ai fled alone and was arrested soon.

Qin Wangzheng cracked Lao Ai's car and exposed the body to the public. ? And put his mother Zhao Ji in the Luyang Palace in Yongcheng; Two illegitimate children born to Lao Ai and the Empress Dowager.

Unify the six countries

(1) Destroy South Korea

South Korea's strength is the weakest among the six countries, but its geographical position is the biggest obstacle to the reunification of Qin. The first target of Qin Shihuang's attack was South Korea. However, Qin Jun attacked South Korea many times and was repelled by South Korea. While attacking South Korea with the main force, Qin adopted the strategy of fostering pro-Qin forces and gradually dismembered South Korea.

23 1 years ago, Teng, a county magistrate in Nanyang, South Korea, pretended to be the chief, and gave his territory to the State of Qin. Teng was appointed as a literature and history by Qin, and was later sent to lead an army to attack South Korea. ? Teng knew Korea like the back of his hand, so it went smoothly. In the seventeenth year of the Qin Dynasty (the first 230 years), Wang Han 'an fell and South Korea perished.

(2) Destroy the State of Zhao

In the first 229 years, the State of Qin took advantage of the earthquake and famine in Zhao, and sent Wang Jian to attack Zhao. Zhao sent Li Mu and Sima Shang to resist. After a year of stalemate, Qin used deviance.

Wang Jian bribed Guo Kai, the favorite of Zhao Wang, with a large sum of money to spread rumors of rebellion between Li Mu and Sima Shang. The prince of Zhao listened to rumors and sent Zhao Cong and Yan Ju instead of Li Mu. Under the current enemy situation, Li Mu refused to give up the relieving. Zhao secretly sent someone to capture Li Mu and kill him, and at the same time killed Sima Shang. Killing Li Mu undoubtedly cleared the way for killing Zhao.

In the 19th year of Qin Dynasty (228 BC), Qin Jun attacked Handan. ? Soon, the fugitive Zhao was forced to land in the state of Qin, and Zhao actually died. ? However, Gong Zijia fled to Dai Jun (Yuxian County, Hebei Province) with a group of people and became king on his own. ? In 222 BC, after Qin Jun destroyed Yan State, it occupied Yan State. At this point, Qin unified the north.

(3) Destroy Wei.

23 1 year ago, under the powerful influence of Qin State, King Wei Jingkun offered Li Yi to Qin State on his own initiative in order to stall his army. At this time, the king of Qin was mobilizing troops to launch a general attack on Zhao. He didn't want to disperse his troops to attack Wei, so he accepted the land proposal. This enabled Wei to maintain the endgame for several years.

In the 22nd year of the Qin Dynasty (225 BC), when the main force was attacking Chu in the south, Wang Ben, a general of the Qin Dynasty, led an army to besiege the girders (Kaifeng, Henan). Wei Jun shut the gate, don't hold on. Because the girder Yugoslav capital has been built for many years and is extremely strong, Qin Jun cannot storm it.

Wang Ben came up with a way to attack by water. A large number of foot soldiers in Qin Jun were arranged to dig ditches, take water from the Yellow River and canyons and pour it into girders. Three months later, the wall barriers of the girders all collapsed, and Wei had to surrender. The state of Wei perished.

(4) Destroy Chu.

Chu has a vast territory and rich products, claiming to have millions of elite soldiers. The nobles of Chu always struggle for power and profit, which is especially serious at the end of the Warring States Period. In 226 BC, the King of Qin lost no time in dispatching Qin Jun from the northern Yan-cutting front and attacking Chu from the south, thus winning more than 65,438+00 cities in Chu.

224 years ago, the decisive battle of Qin Chu began. The King of Qin sent a young general, Li Xin, to lead 200,000 Qin Jun to attack the State of Chu, and was defeated by the Chu army. Then he sent general Wang Jian to lead 600,000 Qin Jun to attack Chu.

After Wang Jian entered Chu, he did not immediately launch an offensive. He summed up Li Xin's lesson of underestimating his enemy's aggressiveness, and adopted the strategy of stationing troops to practice martial arts, being impregnable, paralyzing the enemy and waiting for the first step. After more than a year, Qin Jun basically adapted to the situation of Chu, with high morale and abundant physical strength.

At the same time, the Chu army, which was called to fight against Qin Jun, was gradually demoralized due to the lack of food and grass, and was ready to retreat eastward. When Chu Jun retreated, Wang Jian seized the opportunity and ordered the whole army to attack. Qin Jun defeated the main force of Chu army in one fell swoop, marched into the mainland and killed Xiang Yan, commander-in-chief of Chu army.

In the twenty-fourth year of the King of Qin (223 BC), Qin Jun captured Shouchun (Shouxian County, Anhui Province), the capital of the State of Chu, captured the King of Chu, and the State of Chu perished. In the twenty-fifth year of the King of Qin (222 BC), the army that just destroyed Chu in the south conquered the Vietnamese army and set up Huiji County. As a result, all the Yangtze River basins were incorporated into the territory of Qin State. ?

(5) Destroy Yan State.

In the process of destroying Zhao, the army of Qin reached the border of Yan. The prince was very happy to see that the state of Qin had destroyed Sanjin. He wanted to commit suicide, but there was nothing he could do. Yan Taizi Dan came up with Jing Ke to stab the king of Qin, and finally the assassination failed. The king of Qin almost died under Jing Ke's dagger and immediately sent more troops to attack on a large scale.

In 226 years ago, Qin Jun captured Yan Dou Ji (Beijing), and Yan and Taizi Dan fled to Liaodong County. Li Xin, the general of Qin Dynasty, led thousands of people to pursue Taizi Dan to Yanshui in Qin Jun. Taizidan survived because he was lurking in the water. Later, after weighing the interests, Wang Xi of Yan sent someone to kill Taizi Dan and dedicate his head to Qin, hoping to get a truce and keep Yan. ?

(6) eliminate qi.

In the twenty-sixth year of the King of Qin (22 1), the King of Qin ordered Wang Ben to go south and attack the last Qi state in the six eastern countries. From the Spring and Autumn Period to the mid-Warring States Period, Qi was one of the most powerful countries in Shandong. However, in the first 284 years, Yan, Zhao, Han, Wei and Chu conquered Qi, especially Yan's sweeping, which almost destroyed Qi. Since then, Qi has been devastated. ?
