Brief introduction of Zhao Xie, King of Qin and Zhao. How did Zhao Xie die?

In the second year of his life (the first 208 years), when he attacked Xiang Liang, he thought that Chu soldiers were not worried enough, but crossing the river to attack Zhao was a great breakthrough. Send his men to attack Zhao and conquer Handan. It is said that Zhao Xie has a huge deer, and Zhao Xie is the king, for the generals, for the phase, and for the items. Between Zhang Han and Wang Li, they were involved in the south of Julu and Zhang Han's army, built tunnels, and lost millet. In fact, Zhang Han really wanted to "save lives around the point" until the third year of Qin Ershi (207 BC), when Wang Li was captured in the Battle of Julu in Xiang Yu, the siege of Julu was solved. Although Chen Yu was a general who killed tens of thousands of people and marched to the north of Julu, there was no real rescue. Because Zhao Xiehe was not saved, he lost peace with Chen.

In the first year of Hanwang (the first 206 years), Xiang Yu became the overlord of Chu, divided the northern part of Zhao, and became the Changshan king, with Zhao Wangxie as the generation king. Chen Yu refused, and led three county soldiers to attack Zhang Er, the king of Changshan. In the second year of Hanwang (the first 205 years), Zhang Er failed and took refuge in Hanwang Liu Bang. Chen Yu asked Zhao Xie, the prince of Zhao, to stand on his own feet as the prince of Zhao, and he did not go to the countryside himself. In Zhao, I assisted Zhao Xie as a teacher.

In October of the third year of Hanwang (the first 204 years) (in the Qin calendar, it was still the first 205 years according to the summer calendar and the solar calendar), after Han Xin destroyed Wei Bao, he continued to March and attacked Zhao together. Zhao was defeated by the Han army in the battle of Jingxing, and Han Xin defeated Zhao, who claimed to be 200,000 people, with fewer soldiers in Jingxing, and captured Zhao Xie. Zhao Wangxie's army was hunted down in Guo Xiang and Chen Yu was also killed.

In October of the third year of Emperor Gaozu's Jingxing (204 BC), Han Xin led tens of thousands of newly recruited Han troops across Taihang Mountain and attacked Zhao eastward. Into, concentrate 200000 troops, occupy the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain throat Jingxing mouth, ready to fight. To the west of Jingxingkou, there is a narrow path about a hundred miles long, with mountains on both sides and narrow roads, which is the only place for Han Xin. Li Zuoche, Zhao Jun's counselor, made a plan: fight a frontal defense, send troops around the back to cut off Han Xin's grain transportation route, and trap Han Xin on the narrow road in Jingxing. Chen Yu didn't listen and said, "There are only a few thousand people in Han Xin, thousands of miles away. If we don't fight, won't the princes see the joke? "

After learning the news, Han Xin quickly led the Han army into the narrow road in Jingxing, and camped 30 miles away from the mouth of Jingxing. In the middle of the night, Han Xin sent two thousand Qingqi, each holding a flag of the Han army, to ambush the rear of Zhao's camp from a path. Han Xin warned: "When we are fighting, Zhao will be anxious to catch up with our army. You rushed into the camp of Zhao Jun, pulled out the flag of Zhao Jun, and erected the red flag of Han Jun. " After eating some simple dry food, the rest of the Han army immediately headed for Jingxingkou. At Jingxingkou, the brigade crossed the water and lined up behind it. When Zhao Jun saw it from afar, they all laughed at Han Xin.

After dawn, Han Xin set up a general's flag and ceremonial, and led the people to leave Jingxing. Chen Yu led the whole army to rush out and capture Han Xin alive. Han Xin pretended to abandon the flag and fled back to the position by the river. Zhao was ordered to attack the whole battalion, which was in line with the position of the Han army. Thanks to no way back, the Han army fought bravely for the first place. The two sides fought for a long time, but Zhao Jun couldn't win. At this time, Zhao wanted to go back to the camp, only to find that his camp was full of flags of the Han army, and the team was suddenly in chaos. Han Xin tried to fight back, Zhao was defeated and killed, and Zhao Wang was captured.

After the war, someone asked, "Sun Tzu's art of war says that fighting with the back of the mountain and fighting with the water. This time, we in last stand won. Why? " Han Xin said, "Isn't it also said in Sun Tzu's Art of War that' you will die after being trapped'? It's just that you didn't notice. "
