King Wuling of Zhao (about 365438+295 BC) was named Yong, the son of the Warring States Period and the sixth generation monarch of Zhao. Outstanding politician, strategist and military reformer. His riding and shooting policy in Khufu had a positive impact on the social development of China at that time and later. During his reign from 325 BC to 299 BC, he innovated to be strong, practiced riding and shooting, opened up territory for Zhao, and made Zhao from weak to strong. Among the emperors in China, he was an accomplished politician and strategist. In the twenty-seventh year of King Wuling (298 BC), Zhao Haoqi Huiwen, the youngest son, became his father and led troops to continue to expand the territory and destroy Zhongshan. In the fourth year of Wang Huiwen (the first 295 years), his father and his son Zhang Zheng were defeated in the Dune Palace (the east bank of Fuyang River in the northeast of Pingxiang County, Hebei Province). Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui surrounded the main father's palace in March and starved to death in the Dune Palace. The tomb of King Wuling of Zhao originally covered an area of 60,000 square meters, and now it has a protected area of 1.09 million square meters. The tomb is 220m in circumference and10m in height. During the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, 1 stone tablet was erected in the south of the tomb, and a stone tablet building with a height of 4 meters was built. It was restored in 7 years in the Republic of China, with a tree monument 1 and a length of 246.67 meters. 1984 built a fence for protection. The cemetery is covered with trees and grass, which makes the mausoleum more spectacular. In the 11th year of Emperor Gaozu (196), a city and a county were established here. Lingqiu was named after its tomb to commemorate a generation of wise kings. In 326 BC, when King Wuling of Zhao, aged 12, ascended the throne, it was in the middle and late Warring States period. Wars between countries are frequent, and the trend of merger is becoming more and more fierce. Zhao was surrounded by Qi, Zhongshan, Yan, Lou Fan, Donghu, Qin, Han and Wei, and was called the country of World War IV. Moreover, there is a Zhongshan country among the countries. This Zhongshan country was founded by the Bai Di people. It was attacked and destroyed by Yang Le, the general of Wei. Later, because it was inconvenient to be controlled by other countries, Zhongshan took the opportunity to restore. Sun Yat-sen Kingdom is located in the middle of Zhao State, which is divided into two parts, with Handan as the center and Dai Jun as the center. If it gets stuck in the throat, if Zhao wants to make a difference among the princes, he must first destroy Zhongshan State.

Although Zhao Wuling is young, he is brave and clever. He knew that if you want to capture Zhongshan, it is impossible to succeed easily. You must first establish a good external environment, otherwise the strong enemy will naturally have no time to look around. Therefore, he fought an off-site battle. First, he met King Han Xuanhui. The next year, he married a Korean woman and established a friendly friendship. Then avoid being involved in the struggle between two temporary military alliances at that time, Qi and Chu on one side and Qin, Wei and Han on the other. Once, after Qin Wuwang defeated the North Korean army and captured Yiyang, South Korea, he took the opportunity to visit the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. In those days, Chu Zhuangwang was the most important thing. This time, Qin Wuwang lifted Zhou Ding, who weighed 1000 kg, on his own, but he was also injured in his internal organs and died that night. King Wu has no children. At that time, countries held each other's princes and nobles hostage. When King Wuling of Zhao heard the news of his death, he immediately sent troops to Yan State to escort Ji, the son of his uncle and brother, to Qin State, and seized the throne for the king of Qin. Out of gratitude, he naturally showed goodwill to Zhao, thus making Qin, the most powerful country at that time, his ally.

In 307 BC, King Wuling of Zhao led an army to attack Zhongshan. It went well at first, but it was soon countered. Zhao's chariots and infantry were defeated by Zhongshan army, which not only quickly returned to the border, but even the border town was captured by Zhongshan. Even the Yan people who attacked by plane were defeated by Zhongshan. King Wuling of Zhao believes that it is impossible to fundamentally change the passive beating situation of Zhao, except for Sun Yat-sen's favor, to rely on the traditional infantry fighting mode of the Central Plains, because heavy fighting vehicles are only suitable for fighting in relatively flat places, and it is very inconvenient to fight on complex terrain; Many infantry can't deal with agile cavalry. We must learn from Hu's strengths and strengthen ourselves in order to avoid passive beatings. The only way to strengthen Zhao's military strength is to use cavalry against cavalry. At the same time, only by changing the wide sleeves in the Central Plains into tight sleeves, waist-binding and boots-binding can we meet the needs of riding and shooting operations. It can be seen that King Wuling of Zhao is a very talented and verve strategist and politician. King Wuling of Zhao told the minister Lou Huan about this idea, and Lou Huan immediately agreed to his idea. Later, he called Fay in Guo Xiang and asked him if it was feasible. Fei Yi encouraged him to say: You can't hesitate in everything. The first mouse will definitely accomplish nothing at both ends. According to legend, Shun had learned dance music from Miao family, and Dayu was naked when he was in charge of water control. Therefore, it is not impossible to change clothes. As long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, it should be resolutely done. Fei Yi's words strengthened the determination of King Wuling of Zhao. He immediately found a set of Hu clothes to wear, and vowed: I am determined to change to teach people, let the world laugh at me! But Alakazam and Zhongshan will be mine! Because Khufu's riding and shooting is not only a military reform measure, but also a reform to change a country's customs and habits, it is a renewal of traditional concepts. At the beginning of its implementation, it was difficult for the people to accept its usefulness, but there was also great resistance in the court. Aristocratic bureaucrats, represented by the public, hold traditional ideas and refuse to ride and shoot in Khufu. They either openly oppose it or call it a disease. Ministers also don't want to wear khufu and complain everywhere. In the face of such great resistance, King Wuling of Zhao did not lose heart. He persuades education patiently and persuades people with unshakable faith. King Wuling visited his uncle Gongzi Cheng several times, and Gongzi Chengdu was persuaded. Putting on Hu fu, with King Wuling in court, many ministers followed suit. King Wuling of Zhao then issued the order of Khufu to the whole country, dressing up and down, teaching the people to ride and shoot, and promoting the martial arts style. Because riding and shooting meet the requirements of the times and Zhao's interests, as well as the people's desire to resist the intrusion of powerful enemies, coupled with the measures of Zhao Wuling's gradual promotion from top to bottom, it eventually spread rapidly throughout the country.

With the development of military reform, Zhao's military strength has been rapidly strengthened. In 306 BC, he led his cavalry to attack Ningmi in Zhongshan. Then he went north to break the Hu Lin and Loufan tribes and forced them to move north to the desert, offering horses for peace and becoming Zhao Guofan. After the capture of Yuanyang (now the south bank of Heishui River southeast of Huhehate, Inner Mongolia), Qiyi was established. This is a good natural pasture and an ideal place to train cavalry. Plus, people here are used to riding and shooting, and it's easy to get it. Therefore, this place became a pilot of Khufu's riding and shooting. There is a note in the Warring States Policy that King Wuling broke the belief that Yuanyang rode the city, so he began to teach the city and then traveled in China. As for whether King Wuling Zhao's khufu riding and shooting is widely practiced in the whole country or limited to soldiers in the northern border areas. Historians have different views. Most scholars believe that Zhao Wuling and Wang Hufu's military reform, riding and shooting skills, are widely practiced among the military and civilians throughout the country. In the process of riding and shooting, the Mausoleum of the State of Qi recruited people who were good at riding and shooting all over the country, especially in the northern areas near Hu, and transformed some infantry into cavalry. By absorbing nomadic people in the border areas, a powerful cavalry unit was quickly established. And through the management of Huma, forcing King Hu Lin to give horses in the local area and other channels, a large number of good horses were obtained, which provided an important guarantee for the construction of cavalry units. Before attacking Zhongshan, King Wuling made very careful arrangements. Send envoys to Qin, Han, Chu, Wei and Qi at the same time, and mobilize some troops to guard the border to prevent accidents. King Wuling learned the lesson from the failure of the last attack and adopted the operational principle of diversion attack this time. The first two armies attacked from the west of Zhongshan, and then the main forces divided into three roads and raided on five sides in the south of Zhongshan, which soon occupied a large area of Zhongshan. Zhongshan was forced to make peace and cede four southern cities. From 305 years ago to 300 years ago, Zhao Jun attacked Zhongshan five times and finally destroyed Zhongshan. (See the Battle of Zhao Attacking Zhongshan) Since then, Zhao has become one. Zhao became the only big country that could compete with Qin.

Since then, King Wuling has built the Great Wall in the north, deployed defensive positions, and implemented a progressive policy of national harmony, which protected the border areas from Hu Lin, protected the production and life of the people in the border areas, consolidated the northern border areas, and strengthened local unity, laying the foundation for the later Qin and Han Dynasties to unify the northern border areas. Wuling Wang set up Yunzhong, Yanmen and Daishan counties in the newly opened area in the north. Liberating the slaves attached to doctors in the mainland made them rich in Jiuyuan and other places, which accelerated the process of feudalism and developed the vast frontier. The influence of Khufu's riding and shooting was not only limited at that time, but also had a very positive impact on China's future social development. Wu Wangling changed Khufu for the objective requirements of riding and shooting, but in fact it not only met the needs of combat, but also facilitated people's productive labor and other social activities more than the original costumes in the Central Plains, thus having a far-reaching impact in history. The superiority of Khufu is more and more accepted by the people of the Central Plains. The riding and shooting of Khufu advocated by King Wuling also had a great influence on the war and traffic in China. Before the Spring and Autumn Period, wagons were used for war and traffic in the Central Plains. King Wuling's riding and shooting promoted the development of cavalry in the Central Plains, symbolizing that the chariot era entered the cavalry era, which was of epoch-making significance in the military history of China. With the development of riding and shooting, horses are gradually used in riding and shooting, which greatly strengthens the exchanges and contacts between regions and promotes the economic and cultural exchanges between regions, especially between the Han nationality in the Central Plains and the border ethnic minorities. , has played a positive role in promoting the development of China culture.

After stabilizing the situation in the north with absolute superiority, King Wuling moved his main goal to the Central Plains to complete the great cause of reunification. He has realized that the only powerful countries at that time were Qin and Zhao, and Qin was his real opponent. So he worked for twenty-seven years (the first 299 years), broke the tradition of insisting on being the new king after death, and voluntarily gave the throne to his beloved youngest son, Zhao He, who called himself his father. He freed himself from complicated government affairs, commanded cavalry, and prepared to attack Qin from Hetao area. In order to be a shoo-in, King Wuling took great risks, disguised himself as an emissary, spying on the situation of the king of Qin, scouting the terrain in Guanzhong and seriously studying the strategy of attacking Qin. When his father was ambitious, Zhao's interior changed. Because I am emotional and indecisive on the issue of succession to the throne. Eventually trapped in a sand dune.
