With the help of Li Si and Wei Liao, Ying Zheng formulated a strategic plan to destroy the six dynasties.
The first was to use the chaotic battle between the six countries to bribe the officials of other countries to disrupt their plans.
From the inside, he would disintegrate the six states, then destroy the vassals, become the emperor, and unify the world!
The second was to inherit the strategy of making friends with distant countries and attacking near countries. They determined the specific strategic steps of first weakening and then strengthening, first near and then far. First, they would defeat Zhao, Wei, and Han, then destroy Yan and Chu, and finally attack Northern Qi. They would destroy them one by one and sweep across the six directions!
Qin destroyed the six countries, and with the green mountains and cypresses of Duke Xiao and Lord Shang, they reformed and strengthened Qin!
There is King Huiwen as prime minister, Zhang Zi, and the six countries are weakened!
King Wu of Zhou entered the capital of Zhou and asked for the nine tripods.
There is Zhao Xiang Wang Wu 'an Jun, the country's fate is better than Zhao!
And now, there was a new generation of heroes!
It was a miracle that a family could produce so many generations of wise rulers!
Qin didn't unify the world? Who would unify the world?
......
However, there was actually another important obstacle for Qin to destroy the six countries.
Usually, we understand that the First Emperor unified the world because he fought for the remaining strength of the sixth generation.
The credit was also given to the six kings before him.
If Ying Zheng were to be in charge of the Qin State during the time of Duke Xiao of Qin…
No matter how powerful he was, it was impossible for him to destroy all six countries in a single day!
And the one who unified the world.
But why him?
Not too early or too late?
What had Ying Zheng done that his predecessors had never done?
In other words, before he became Qin Shihuang, what achievements had he neglected?
......
First, he threw away the factor of strength.
The Qin Country and the other six countries had one thing in common.
That was to form an alliance through marriage.
As for the Chu and Qin countries, which had the largest territories, they were actually considered barbarians in the eyes of the other countries.
They didn't even care about these two countries, so Qin Chu's marriage was the most frequent.
For example, Empress Dowager Xuan was born in the royal family of Chu and married King Huiwen of Qin.
Later, during the reign of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, he held power for 41 years!
The power of the Chu clan's relatives had also developed to its peak under her hands.
As for the successor, Madam Hua Yang, she was also born in the royal family of Chu State.
She was the granddaughter of Mi Rong, the Lord of Huayang, during the reign of King Zhaoxiang of Qin. Empress Dowager Xuan was her great-aunt.
The King An she married later became King Xiaowen of Qin for three days, and his adopted son Ying Yiren succeeded King Zhuang Xiang of Qin.
From then on, she began to take over the government, and for eight years after Ying Zheng ascended the throne, she was the one who controlled the government of Qin State.
The power of the Chu family's relatives could be said to be deeply rooted in the Qin country, so they wanted to completely destroy the Chu country!
First of all, he had to destroy all the Chu family's relatives in Qin!
There might be people who would say that although these empress dowager came from the Chu Country, after arriving in the Qin Country, they still regarded the Qin Country as the main country.
Especially Empress Dowager Xuan, she could be said to be a virtuous empress of a generation and had done many things for Qin country.
Moreover, when they were in power, the Qin Country and the Chu Country had also fought. They also supported it.
However, war and the destruction of a country were two different things!
They had advantages in war, but if the country was destroyed, they would have nothing to gain.
With the strong enemy of Qin standing outside, they had the advantage of diplomacy as capital.
It was only when she had a maternal family that she could live well in her in-laws 'family.
......
Besides the deep-rooted power of the Chu Family's relatives, Ying Zheng also had to face two other families.
One was a group of relatives led by his biological grandmother, Empress Dowager Xia, which also included his half-brother, Cheng Jiao, and his biological mother, Madam Han.
The other one was Ying Zheng's biological mother, Empress Dowager Zhao Ji, who led a group of relatives of the Zhao family, including Lao Ai and Prime Minister Lu Buwei, who was considered half a member of the Zhao family.
The countries represented by these relatives practically blocked the Qin country's road to the east.
The three of them stood in a straight line, blocking the east road of the State of Qin.
The only gap was the Wei Country, which was in the same league as the Zhao and Han Families.
Therefore, as long as this situation continued to exist, it was almost impossible for the Qin country to truly go east.
If it was a small fight, it would be fine to take a piece of land or a city.
But to destroy a country? The resistance was too great.
Moreover, their existence did not just restrict the State of Qin's eastward exit.
It could even affect the internal structure of the entire Qin country.
Ying Zheng's younger brother, Cheng Jiao, rebelled because he was the representative of the descendants of the shouting lineage.
They also received the support of the country.
If he succeeded in becoming a flood dragon, he would be indebted to Huanguo for supporting him.
In addition, there were still other relatives in the Qin country, so it was impossible for Cheng Jiao to destroy the country.
A country could not be destroyed? How can we talk about destroying the six countries?
Therefore, when Ying Zheng unified the world, even if his personal ability was disregarded, it would not be easy for him to do so.
He could be said to be the best candidate!
Although Ying Zheng was born from the Zhao Nation, he was still very powerful.
However, there was no such relationship between becoming a flood dragon and calling out to the country.
The hardships of his childhood not only made him determined.
He could only be a Qin citizen! It could only be Qin Wang!
A true king! It was indescribable!
To let a person face him in the world, he could be king or tyrant!
He could even swallow the world!
From then on, he advanced forward.
This is to explain the season, fate, luck.
If the State of Zhao had treated Ying Zheng a little better back then, he would not have been so carefree!
Sheng Sheng was the country that could unify the world at that time, and he created a king that could unify the world!
......
After the defeat of Cheng Jiao, he was exterminated.
After Lao Ai's defeat, the Zhao faction had vanished!
However, at this moment, the Chu faction was still the only faction that was strong.
Under the reminder of the others, Ying Zheng immediately brought his mother back to the Chu Family to restrict the power of the Chu Family.
Back then, after Lady Zhao betrayed Ying Zheng, she was expelled from Xianyang by the disheartened Ying Zheng.
It also left him with the infamy of being unfilial.
But filial piety? Ying Zheng would probably find it funny, right?
Lady Zhao was an idiot. When she was having a story with Lao Ai, had she ever thought about her son, who had to face the whole world alone?
She did not know that her betrayal had turned her son into a competent king!
Ying Zheng could drive her out of Xianyang with his own hands, and he could also make her come back when needed to be a tool to balance the power of the Chu Family's relatives.
Heartless? He was naturally heartless.
When her son, who knew that he had betrayed her, stood in front of her again.
When he wanted her to be used by him, there was probably only fear left in Zhao Ji's heart, right?
But she deserved to be afraid.
She should be afraid too, and in front of the current Ying Zheng, she was not the only one who was afraid.
It was the entire world!
......
Later on, Empress Dowager Hua Yang also passed away, and Ying Zheng began to increase his efforts in suppressing the Chu faction.
Lord Changping, who was already the prime minister at the time, was immediately expelled from Xianyang as the nephew of Empress Dowager Huayang. He was ordered to guard the border between Qin and Chu.
That was until Qin Shi Huang sent Wang Jian to lead 600,000 troops to destroy Chu.
Lord Changping rebelled in Ying and Chen. Later, Xiang Yan, the famous general of Chu, was Xiang Yu's grandfather.
He supported Lord Changping as the King of Chu and continued to resist the Qin country. In the end, Lord Changping was defeated and killed, and the Chu country was destroyed.
From then on, there was no longer any power in the Qin State that could stop Ying Zheng from unifying the world.
Ying Zheng had also become the first person since the creation of the world to break free from this complicated bloodline connection, which led to the countries in the world to exchange what they needed and maintain a delicate balance!
But what was the price?
It was incomparable loneliness.
At this moment, no one could truly understand him.
But as a king, why would he need others to understand?
It was said that Augustus Octavian was a template emperor?
Calm as a machine, only for profit, pursuing perfection?
Hehe, in front of Ying Zheng, what was that?
He was just eloquent and good at manipulating power.
His lower limit was high, but his upper limit was low.
It was destined to stop here.
It could be said that there was no growth from the beginning to the end.
That was why he was so perfect.
As for Ying Zheng?
Did he become a heartless person after he had almost abandoned his personal feelings?
He did not!
He had only placed his feelings in a place.
......
The king of Qin ruled for ten years. Liao went to the State of Qin to meet the king of Qin.
When the King of Qin saw Liao, he said,"I have long heard of your great name. Today, I am honored to meet you. What can you teach me?"”
"What does Your Majesty want to ask?" Liao asked.”
The King of Qin replied,"I have been wandering in Zhao since I was a child and have suffered from war. I hope that the world will be peaceful and the people will be happy. This is what I want to ask for advice."
Liao replied,"Your Majesty's idea is to benefit the people and is also the will of Heaven." But today, as Confucius said: Rites and music have collapsed, and people's hearts have changed. It was no longer the same as before. Therefore, if they wanted to eliminate war, they could only eliminate war through war.”
"If Your Majesty wants to wage a righteous war, the heavens will bless him.”
Liao then systematically explained to the King of Qin the strategies, strategies, and importance of generals.
Everyone was thinking about Ying Zheng.
The king of Qin consulted Wei Liao on everything and listened to him.
Not only that, but to show his trust and respect, the king of Qin also provided Wei Liao with the same clothes and food as he did.
Every time he met Wei Liao, he would always be very humble, and Ying Zheng respected him as a teacher.
However, Wei Liao didn't appreciate it.
Wei Liao knew a little about physiognomy.
At first, he believed that the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, had a strong face and could be humble and sincere when he asked for help.
For example, the current King of Qin could treat a commoner like him so humbly, but once the King of Qin was offended, he would become extremely cruel and merciless.
Therefore, he did not want to work for the King of Qin and always wanted to escape.
Someone told the king of Qin what Wei Liao had said.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng merely smiled and said,""Whether I am that kind of person or not, we will see clearly in the future. I love his talent. The Qin country needs such a great talent. If the Qin country can't keep him, then I'm just incompetent.”
Thus, he treated Wei Liao with respect and trusted him.
Later on, Wei Liao had escaped many times.
However, every time the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, sent people to chase him back, and he never blamed Wei Liao for this. He treated Wei Liao as a distinguished guest as usual.
In the end, Wei Liao was moved.
I'm willing to assist the King of Qin to help the State of Qin achieve the great cause of unification!
......
So, was Ying Zheng a heartless man?
It could be said that.
His mother's betrayal made him no longer ask for love from his family.
It made him lose his pursuit of love.
But he, Ying Zheng, was still full of hot blood!
Human feelings are meaningless, but the king's feelings are deep!
A day to review bamboo slips up to a hundred catties, courtesy to the wise and corporal, conquering the world, to fight to stop the war!
How could a muddleheaded person do any of these?
It must be someone with deep passion!
Therefore, all of these things had finally allowed Ying Zheng to complete this transformation that was close to 'transcendent'.
Others sat on the throne and exercised the power of the king. In the end, they were only one person.
As for Ying Zheng! But it could be said that he was no longer separated from the royal power!
There was no other pursuit in life, only to reach the peak of one's identity as a king!
If he didn't have such enthusiasm, how could he become the emperor?!
......
"Ying Zheng has already reached the maximum level through leveling up and fighting monsters.”
"Other than him, no other emperor can do it, right?”
"The previous emperors on the rankings all have this or that kind of 'humanity'.”
"Zhu Yuanzhang loved his wife and loved his son. Liu Che was moved by his family's hatred for his country.”
"Napoleon's family was granted a great title and enjoyed the glory that was even greater than theirs.”
"There's no need to talk about Genghis Khan and Li Shimin. One takes pleasure in conquering, while the other is pleased with himself.”
"Zhu Di is trapped in the name of rebellion and worries about his descendants.”
"Alexander was also filled with ideals and glory.”
" Augustus Octavian, who was slightly better, also exiled his own daughter because of his perfectionist obsessive-compulsive disorder.”
" Besides, he only knows how to pursue the known perfection, which also makes him unable to see the distant future.”
"There's nothing much to say. After all, we're all humans.”
"But Ying Zheng! It's more of a 'king's nature'!"
"He can continue walking without being bound by anything!”
"As expected of the ceiling of the human emperor. This configuration that can be called the ultimate body is simply one of a kind!”
"He is the template for all emperors!”
......
230 years ago, the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, sent Neishi Teng to lead his troops to attack Han. He conquered the Han capital, Xinzheng, and captured Wang An. Then, he occupied the entire country and destroyed it!
After the destruction of the State of Zhao, a severe drought occurred in the State of Zhao. The war was imminent, and the food supply was insufficient.
At this moment, the Qin army, which had been resting for three years, made a comeback and attacked Zhao again.
In 229 years ago, Wang Jian led Shangdi soldiers out of Jingxing.
Yang Duanhe led the Hanoi army to besiege Handan.
Zhao Wang Qian sent Li Mu and Sima Shang to resist.
Under Li Mu's strategy of building fortifications and defending to avoid a decisive battle, the Qin army was unable to win, forming a stalemate.
In order to eradicate Li Mu, the biggest threat to the Qin army, Wang Jian used a large sum of money to bribe Zhao Wangqian's favorite, Guo Kai.
Rumors spread that Li Mu and Sima Shang plotted to rebel against the king and implemented counter-spy tactics.
Zhao Wangqian listened to Guo Kai's calumny and ordered Zhao Cong and Yan Ju to replace Li Mu and Sima Shang as generals and seize Li Mu's life.
In the third month of the year 228, when Li Mu was killed by Zhao Wangqian, Wang Jian launched a fierce attack, defeating the Zhao army in one fell swoop, killing Zhao Cong and occupying Dongyuan.
In the tenth month of the same year, they conquered Handan and captured Zhao Wang Qian. Zhao's Young Master Jia led the remaining clansmen to flee north and established himself in Dai Land. He was known as the Dai King in history. At this time, Zhao had already existed in name only!
......
Qin captured Handan. After Zhao Gongzi Jia fled North, Wang Jian and Xin Sheng led the Qin army north and approached Yishui.
The entire Yan Country was terrified.
In 226 years ago, Wang Jian conquered Ji City, the capital of Yan, and Yan Wang Xi and Prince Dan fled to Liaodong.
Qin general Li Xin followed up the victory and chased after them to Yan River. He then defeated Crown Prince Dan and destroyed the last of Yan Country's strength.
The King of Yan, who had no way to turn the situation around, killed Crown Prince Dan and asked for peace with the Qin Kingdom. Although the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, did not agree to the request, he did not kill them all. Instead, he sent his army south to deal with the more important Wei and Chu Kingdoms.
225 years ago, Wang Ben, the son of Wang Jian, led his army to attack Daliang.
As the former overlord of the Wei Kingdom, the capital city of Daliang City was high and deep, making it difficult for the Qin army to conquer it.
Wang Ben took over all the cities around Daliang City after his attack failed. He fortified the walls and cleared the wilderness, leaving Daliang City without any external support. He then flooded the city with the Yellow River and the chasm.
Three months after the bubble, the city walls of Daliang collapsed. The King of Wei had no choice but to leave the city on a small boat and surrender to the Qin army. Wei was destroyed!
In 224 years ago, the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, used his old general, Wang Jian, to launch his second attack on the Chu Country.
Although Chu had already declined, the foundation of a great country was still there. Wang Jian gave up on Li Xin's rash actions of seeking quick success and instant benefits. After obtaining Yingchen, Shangcai, Pingyu, and other places, he built fortresses and did not come out.
At this time, the Qin State had already destroyed four of the six countries. The entire north, except for the Qi State, was all Qin territory. They had time and capital to waste time with the Chu State. On the other hand, although the Chu State had defeated Li Xin, its overall strength was still behind the Qin State. The situation was not optimistic.
Xiang Yan led the Chu army's main force to garrison along the Huai River, but Wang Jian did not come to attack. The Chu army, which was already on the defensive, could only wait and see. However, the King of Chu, Fu Chu, blamed Xiang Yan for cowardice and ordered Xiang Yan to take the initiative to attack.
Under the orders of Fu Chu, Xiang Yan had no choice but to attack the Qin army. However, the Qin army did not accept the challenge and could not break through the camp. Xiang Yan had no choice but to lead the army east.
Wang Jian took advantage of Xiang Yan's retreat to attack the Chu army to the Yinghe River. The two armies fought fiercely. The Chu army was defeated and fled to the south of Qizhou and killed Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu army.
223 years ago, Wang Jian conquered Shouchun, the capital of Chu, and captured Fu Chu. Chu was destroyed!
In 222 years ago, Wang Ben led his army to the north and destroyed the Yan and Dai Kingdoms. It was only then that the Qi Kingdom realized that they were in trouble. They hurriedly gathered 400,000 Qi troops to the border of Qi and Yan.
In 221 years ago, the State of Qin declared war on the State of Qi on the grounds that the State of Qi had refused to send envoys.
Wang Ben easily bypassed the Qi army's defense line and charged straight into the Qi capital, Linzi. King Qi Jian surrendered without a fight, and the Qi Kingdom was destroyed!
At this point, the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, had gone through 18 years of war!
After destroying the Han, Wei, Chu, Zhao, Yan, and Qi countries, the world was finally unified!
......
Ying Zheng conquered the six states, unified the world, and established the prefectures and counties! He had established an unprecedented achievement of blessing for all eternity!
It allowed the Dragon Country to move from the era of fief to the era of empire!
He had almost taken over the world he knew at that time!
He had truly realized that wherever the sun and moon shone, wherever the river went, it was Qin soil!
So Ying Zheng ordered his ministers,"With my small body, I raised an army to eliminate the chaos. I relied on the spirit of the ancestral temple. The six kings were all guilty and the world was settled. If the name is not changed now, it cannot be said to be successful and passed on to future generations. Let's talk about the title of emperor."
He asked the ministers to discuss the name.
We respectfully discussed with the doctor, saying,"In ancient times, there were Heaven, Earth, and Tai. The Three Emperors, Tai, were the most precious.”
"We risked our lives to ascend the throne, Wang Weitai!”
"Order" is "system","order" is "edict".”
"The Son of Heaven calls himself 'Zhen'."
The king said,"Get rid of Tai and give it the name of Huang. It is the name of the ancient Emperor, and its title is Emperor. He agreed."
"Yes," said the emperor.
The reason why Ying Zheng chose the word 'emperor' was because there were three emperors, Heaven, Earth, and Tai.
The ministers suggested that he should be called Tai, because Tai was the noblest, but Ying Zheng disagreed and asked for the word Tai to be removed.
He also used the ancient title of emperor, which was why he was called "Emperor". It was not because of the arrogance of "Virtue and Three Emperors, Merit and Five Emperors".
Later generations often used the labels of " grandiose " and " arrogant " to describe Ying Zheng.
In fact, it was the biggest misunderstanding of him. The saying " Virtue of the Three Sovereigns and Merit of the Five Emperors " was an attempt to use him to look down on the things that the ancient sages had never done to draw hatred for him.
Or perhaps, one fan was worth ten haters.
As an emperor, Ying Zheng held himself to the highest standards in all aspects.
Why would he abandon the modesty of a wise ruler?
......
But even so, the title of emperor was meaningful enough!
If future generations wanted to look up to him, they had to seize this title!
And if he wanted this name to be legitimate, he had to at least have Qin soil!
Although there were also emperors who could not do this, such as Song.
However, this name did contribute to the long-term unification of the Dragon Country!
Therefore, the significance of the three words "First Emperor" was self-evident!
......
"First Emperor! The first person to call himself emperor!"
"Although the later generations are also called emperors, they all started with him!”
"He gave the future generations ambition, an ambition that was as supreme as him!”
"However, no matter how amazing the future generations are, as long as they inherit his name, they can only be below him!”
"If you have the ability, why don't you create an even more amazing name that can replace these two words?”
