Wedge through the ages tragic Changping War
King Zhao of Qin appointed Fan Sui as prime minister, adopted Fan Sui's strategy of "matching far and near" and made friends with Zhao, Wei, Yan, Qi and Chu, and attacked Han with all his strength, hoping to plot against Han Shangdang. Han could not stop him, so King Han ordered Shangdang prefect Feng Ting to offer land to Qin. Feng Ting did not listen and offered land to Zhao.
At that time, the Shangdang land was divided into two parts, one was Han Shangdang and the other was Zhao Shangdang. Han Shangdang was the gateway of Zhao Shangdang. If Han Shangdang was obtained by Qin, Zhao Shangdang would be exposed to the Qin army and Qin could obtain it in one battle.
Shangdang's land had all the advantages. If Qin had the land of Shangdang, the capital of Zhao State, Handan, would be exposed to the Qin State's military. The Qin army set out from Shangdang's land and could arrive in the morning and evening, and the troops would come to Handan. King Xiaocheng of Zhao adopted the strategy of Prime Minister Pingyuan and accepted Feng Ting's offer of land.
King Zhao of Qin was furious and ordered the Qin army to attack Zhao. Zhao general Lianpo and the Qin army were in stalemate in Changping, and the famous Changping War broke out.
Lian Po was a famous general of the world. He was old and persistent. He knew that he could not fight against the Qin soldiers. He adopted a strategy of perseverance and did not fight with the Qin army. The Qin army could not capture it for a long time. King Zhao of Qin used Fan Sui's strategy to implement counter-espionage strategies and sent Zheng Anping to spread rumors in Handan, saying that the Qin army was not afraid of Lian Po, but only feared the horse and the son.
Zhao Kuo was the son of Zhao She, a famous general of Zhao State. Zhao She was named Ma Fujun, so Zhao Kuo was called "Ma Fuzi".
Zhao Kuo was a young genius with amazing memory and could recite it through his eyes; he was extremely talented and had amazing insights into military tactics, but his father Zhao She could not be blamed. As a result, he was well-known and was recognized as a talented person by the Zhao government and the people of Zhao and had high hopes.
What’s even more rare is that Zhao Kuo was the attendant of King Xiaocheng of Zhao. The two studied together since childhood and grew up together. They knew the roots and bottom lines, and were extremely trusted by King Xiaocheng of Zhao.
With the strong recommendation of Prime Minister Ping Yuanjun, King Xiaocheng of Zhao was pleased to order Zhao Kuo as a general and replaced the old, polite Lian Po.
Zhao Kuo only knows how to talk about war on paper, but does not know the right place of Shangdang. He fell into Bai Qi's plan and marched rashly, and was besieged by the Qin army. After more than 40 days of fierce fighting, the Zhao army was exhausted, Zhao Kuo died in a trap, and more than 200,000 Zhao troops had to surrender.
During the Battle of Changping, Qin dispatched a total of 580,000 troops, and Zhao dispatched a total of 500,000 troops. After three years of fierce battle, the winner was finally decided, ending with a great victory in Qin, which shocked the world.
What made the world even more terrified was that Bai Qi killed more than 200,000 Zhao soldiers.
The six Warring States Periods of Han, Zhao, Wei, Yan, Qi and Chu were frightened.
Qin has always been known as tigers and wolves, so the name of tigers and wolves is more intense and prosperous. The Emperor of Zhou could not ask, let alone ask.
For a moment, the world was silent.;
