The second generation, King Qin Huiwen, during this period, the conditions changed and the historical mission also changed. After Shang Yang's political reform, Qin became strong, Qin became strong, and the other six countries were all red-eyed, because the six countries could not see Qin's strength. In this way, people of insight in the six countries will find ways to deal with the powerful state of Qin. To unite is to unite the six countries to weaken Qin, and Qin will be finished. Therefore, the historical mission of King Qin Huiwen is to break the six-nation alliance. Qin Huiwen also accomplished this mission through Lian Heng.
In the third generation, Qin Wuwang and Qin Wuwang were in power for a short time, only three years, because they died of weightlifting and had no sons. Is it He Mingjun? Three years in Qin Wuwang was really great. Qin Wuwang has a famous saying: "I want to let my car cross the Three Rivers and see a room, and I won't hate it even if I die." I want to take a bus to Sanchuan, which is now Luoyang, to see the city of Zhoutianzi. I will not regret my death. This is Qin Wuwang. At this time, Qin has become very powerful. What is the historical mission of King Wu? Is to seize the historical opportunity and move eastward into the Central Plains. In 3 1 1 BC, the young Qin Wuwang sent Prime Minister Gan Mao to attack Yiyang, an important town in South Korea, 40 kilometers west of Luoyang, Henan. It is the only passage from Shaanxi to Henan, with mountains on both sides and a narrow mountain road in the middle. It is a military town. It is said that if you want to fight Yiyang, you must first unite with Wei, that is, send someone to negotiate with Wei. Wei agreed to join hands with Qin to fight Yiyang, and Yiyang got through. Qin could only go out of Hangu Pass, so this is a key place. Gan Mao is a very talented person. On his way back to Wei after his mission, he told the deputy that you should go back and tell the king of Qin. First of all, Wei agreed to join hands with us. Second, you also said that although Wei agreed, the war could not be fought. If you say so, all the credit will be recorded in your credit book in the future. He didn't know why, so he went back and told Qin Wuwang that it was strange. He wanted to unite Wei in Yiyang, and now Wei agreed to unite. You said you couldn't fight. Why? Summoned Gan Mao, Gan Mao told three things, three things, Qin Wuwang understood. First, I have participated in killing people. Zeng Shen was an ancient saint. When he lived in the enclave, there was a man named Zeng Shen in this place. As a result, this man has killed someone. Later, Zeng Shen's mother was informed that she had killed someone. Knowing that her son won't kill anyone, mother weaves on the loom. After a while, the second man reported that his mother was still weaving. After a while, the third man reported that his mother threw the loom and ran away over the wall. Gan Mao said that Zeng Shen was a saint and his mother knew her son best. She didn't hold back what the three men said, so she ran away in horror. I am not a native of Qin. If I come to Qin to help you fight the world, someone will speak ill of me behind my back. If I go to Yiyang and someone speaks ill of me, I won't be free to be Zeng Shen, and you won't trust me like Zeng Shen's mother. Can I type it down? This is the first thing. The second thing, Zhang Yi's discussion is futile. There was a discussion during the reign of King Huiwen, which contributed a lot, but no one said that Zhang Yili's credit was attributed to King Huiwen of Qin, saying that the courtiers did not count. This is the second thing. The third thing, Hou Wen burned the letter. Wei Wenhou, the founding emperor of Wei, sent a general to attack Zhongshan, which was destroyed for three years. Yang Le is very proud and feels that he has made such a great contribution and should be rewarded. As a result, as soon as he saw Wei Wenhou, Wei Wenhou moved out a laundry list containing letters of complaint from other ministers to Yang Le in the past three years. Seeing so many letters of complaint from Yang Le, Wei Wenhou didn't tell him. He insisted on supporting him for three years before he realized that the credit was not only his. So Yang Le immediately knelt down and said two words: "This is not the credit of the minister, but also the strength of the Lord." This is not my credit, but the trust of the master. Under that system, nothing can be done without the trust of leaders. After these three points, Gan Mao said, Do you think I dare to hit Yiyang? If Yiyang can't fight for a year, how many people will speak ill of me, can I still live? Although Wei agreed to unite, I can't fight this battle anyway. Qin Wuwang got it. He said let's make a contract. You can play Yiyang for me. I absolutely trust you. I won't listen to anyone who complains. Gan Mao agreed. Then Gan Mao went to war for five months. Qin Wuwang received many complaints. Qin Wuwang hesitated, demanding that Gan Mao withdraw its troops. Gan Mao wrote back that our contract is still valid? Hearing this, Qin Wuwang continued to send more troops. Finally, Gan Mao won Yiyang, killed 60,000 North Korean soldiers, and opened the west gate of South Korea. Qin's army can leave Hangu Pass and go straight to Luoyang. Qin Wuwang, who died of weightlifting, lived only three years, never married or had children, but he also accomplished his mission.
The fourth monarch, Zhao Haoqi, king of Qin, made a greater contribution. He reigned for 56 years and executed his eldest son. During the reign, Qin had an overwhelming advantage. His historical mission is to continue eastward, eliminate the main forces of the six countries, and lay the foundation for final reunification. King Zhao Xiangguo reigned for 56 years, taking Wei Ran as the phase first, then Fan Sui as the phase, and reusing Tian Lei, who did not bear great trust. Yi Que defeated the allied forces of Korea and Wei in World War I, beheading 240,000 people. The battle of Changping buried 450 thousand alive. Qin unified killed 1 tens of thousands, and one person killed more than 900,000. Zhao Xiang's continuous use of troops basically wiped out the main forces of the six countries, laying the foundation for Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, to finally unify the world. Moreover, when Xiang was in power, if he had listened to Bai Qi, Zhao could have been destroyed, which dragged on for several months, but the battle of Handan was not won, as we have already said. Therefore, Zhao Xiangguo Wang also completed his historical mission.
Fifth, Qin Xiaowen, it's hard to say. He died three days after taking office, neither passive nor innocent. Let's call him Mingjun.
The sixth place, Zhuang Xiang Wang, is an alien. He has only been in office for three years, which is very short. However, King Zhuang Xiang did two great things, reusing Lv Buwei and establishing the East County. Dongjun is very important, connecting Qi and cutting off the north-south passage of the six countries, which has made great contributions. The other took advantage of the contradiction between Zhao and Yan, occupied 37 cities of Zhao, and further weakened Zhao. Therefore, although he was in office for only three years, he also completed his historical mission.
Seventh, to seize power, his historical mission was to seize the opportunity to launch a unified war against the six countries. Therefore, after winning power, he quickly decided to launch a unified war and completed this historical mission in ten years. In the whole process, none of the seven monarchs of Qin made a big mistake, but they all had a strong sense of mission and fulfilled their historical responsibilities, which was not simple. These seven monarchs were not deliberately elected, but according to the system of Qin, the father died and the son succeeded, and the brothers finally lived together. For example, Qin Wuwang's younger brother, King Zhao Xiangguo, was jointly promoted by the Queen Mother and Wei Ran. He was held hostage in the state of Qin. For him, it was entirely accidental to become a monarch. He is particularly energetic. He worked for 56 years. His eldest son died abroad as a hostage, and his second son, Ann Guo Jun, succeeded to the throne. Ann Guo Jun accidentally inherited the throne, because his brother died, and he died three days after he inherited the throne, and then a dissident appeared, namely King Zhuang Xiang. King Xiang of Zhuang acceded to the throne by accident. If it weren't for Lv Buwei's packaging, he wouldn't even be an office in Guo Jun. Seven generations of monarchs all succeeded to the throne by accident, but none of them became monarchs by accident. In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, there was a very famous writer and politician named Jia Yi, who wrote "On Qin" with three chapters, which was very famous. Jia Yi famously said in the first part of On Qin that Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, was "more courageous than the six generations" and inherited the achievements of the first six generations of monarchs. At his place, the seven generations of monarchs worked hard and finally unified the world. So from this perspective, changing the monarch is not a simple matter.
