In fact, in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, especially in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period, the invasion of the Central Plains by northern foreigners has reached an extremely fierce level.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, there were mainly "Rong" and "Di" nomadic activities in northern China. The direct cause of the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty was Rong's invasion. After the troubled times in the Spring and Autumn Period began, Rong's intrusion once intensified, and other northwest countries also suffered greatly. What is more fierce is the Di nationality, whose activities have penetrated into today's Shandong and Henan areas, and countries such as Yan State have suffered greatly. In the famous story of "Wei Yigong's Good Crane Destroys the Country", it was the Di people who were burned to death in the Central Plains at that time.
The so-called hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period is not only a struggle between countries in the Spring and Autumn Period, but also a robbery of northern aliens. In the face of this catastrophe, the scattered countries in the Spring and Autumn Period once had to fight alone, and many small countries were even unable to fight back. But why did this invasion finally disappear? A word from Confucius, a Confucian sage, just tells a truth: Guan Zhong, I was dumped-without the great hero Guan Zhong, the Chinese nation in the Spring and Autumn Period would have been a conquered nation.
Specifically, Guan Zhong and Guan Zhong assisted Qi Huangong's great cause of "respecting the king and rejecting foreign countries" and became a brave banner, unifying the powers in the Spring and Autumn Period under the banner, letting bygones be bygones, and resisting foreign humiliation.
As the first overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period, Qi Huangong is often talked about by people, and it is his struggle process of finally dominating the vassals with the slogan of "respecting the king and rejecting the foreign countries". However, for the countries in the Spring and Autumn Period at that time, "respecting the king and rejecting the foreign countries" had a more life-saving significance: in the name of respecting the Emperor of Zhou, unite forces to resist the invasion of all kinds of nomads. Its significance has gone beyond the "Spring and Autumn Hegemony" itself.
Therefore, under the impetus of Guan Zhong, Qi Huangong held the banner of "respecting the king and rejecting foreign countries" and maintained the alliance again and again. As allies, gather the strength of all ethnic groups and bravely face foreign sword soldiers. The first world war that shocked the world was to rescue Yan. In the dangerous situation that Yan was invaded by the imperialists and the mountains and rivers almost fell, Qi Huangong personally led the Qi army to the north. He not only killed Tijen's troops, but also pursued them all the way to Liaodong. He was once deprived of food and lost. He relied on several old horses in the army to find his way and fought his way out. Behind the allusion of "an old horse knows his way" is a difficult battle against foreign humiliation.
It was this perilous World War I that completely lifted the intrusion of Ren Di on Yan State. Excited Duke Zhuang of Yan, when he left, he reluctantly sent Qi Huangong to the territory of Qi, but unexpectedly even broke the rule that "the governors were not allowed to send him out of the country" in the Zhou Dynasty. Qi Huangong insisted: You can't break the rules. All the land you crossed was given to you. What land is this as long as it can hold the north and block the barbarian enemies?
After this thrilling battle, the vassal States in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States finally woke up. The vast majority of governors are United under the banner of "the king is busy with foreigners." Follow the overlord Qi Huangong, ignite sword of vengeance, and fight against the rampaging alien enemies. The Central Plains Coalition led by Qi Huangong later saved the patriotic country trampled by other ethnic groups, helped the once-destroyed criminal country to restore the country, and spared no effort to invest material resources to rebuild the new capital for the criminal country. At the end of Qi Huangong's life, he finally wiped out the nomadic enemies who invaded the Central Plains from all walks of life, established a hegemonic cause, and restored the broken Central Plains to peace and tranquility.
Although princes are arrogant, they are mostly beautiful. However, since the Spring and Autumn Period, the Chinese nation has forgotten the past, and the picture of * * * resisting the enemy has reappeared again and again. Witness the endless vitality of the descendants of the Yellow Emperor.
