Mondo History Updated on 2024-01-29

Qin Shi Huang was able to sweep the six countries and dominate the world, which in addition to strategy and the art of war, also relied on the strength of Qin's ** equipment and the outstanding performance of the generals on the battlefield. Among the generals of the Qin State, Lian Po, Li Mu, Wang Jian and Bai Qi were known as the "Four Famous Generals of the Warring States", and made great achievements for Qin Shi Huang to dominate the world.

Bai Qi, born from Bai Gongsheng, the grandson of King Chuping, was born in the period of King Qin Zhao. His rise was due to the fact that King Qin Zhao recruited military talents at that time and implemented the military merit system, so that talented people had the opportunity to display their talents. When he first joined the army, Bai Qi became the main general with his outstanding performance in the battle against Xincheng in South Korea, successfully annihilated 240,000 Han and Wei allied troops, and became famous and promoted to national captain in the first battle.

In 282 BC, the state of Chu united with the other five states to attack Qin, and King Zhaoxiang of Qin sent Bai Qi to conquer the state of Chu and achieved a great victory. In the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi used his clever strategy and wisdom to successfully break through the last line of defense of Zhao, causing the Zhao army to collapse. The victory in this battle allowed the Qin State to wipe out the 400,000 troops of the Zhao State in one fell swoop, and Bai Qi became a well-deserved god of war.

During Bai Qi's military career, he was never defeated, and participated in more than 70 battles. Among them, the Battle of Changping is considered the most influential battle. The details of the war show Bai Qi's superb combat ability and wisdom and strategy.

The Battle of Changping was divided into two phases, the first stage was a battle between the Qin general Wang and the Zhao State. Bai Qi devised an ingenious tactic, and by retreating to lure the enemy and divide the encirclement, he led the Zhao army into a bag-shaped ambush circle, and finally succeeded in breaking through the last line of defense of the Zhao state: the Great Wall of Bailishi.

Bai Qi's control of the details is also very exquisite. He even ordered soldiers to be forbidden to eat mutton in the army to ensure that the smell of the wind would not reveal the location. This meticulous strategy shows his precise calculation and strict control over every detail of the battlefield.

Bai Qi's strategy in the Battle of Changping was not limited to the tactical level, but also included psychological warfare. Obviously, the Zhao army could be annihilated in one fell swoop, but Bai Qi deliberately cut off the grain and grass, leaving the enemy army to fend for itself, ensuring that the Qin army won easily and avoided unnecessary losses.

The success of the Battle of Changping not only consolidated the dominance of Qin during the Warring States period, but also established Bai Qi's lofty position in the history of Chinese warfare. He was well versed in the way of war, integrated the details into military law operations, and became one of the most resourceful military commanders in the history of Chinese warfare. Under his leadership, the great cause of Qin's unification of the world was more stable, laying a solid foundation for later history.

Bai Qi's outstanding performance in the history of Chinese warfare, especially the strategy and wisdom shown in the Battle of Changping, has undoubtedly injected a lot of color into the history of our country. With his outstanding commanding skills and extraordinary resourcefulness, this god of war successfully brought the Qin State to the commanding heights of the Warring States Period.

First of all, Bai Qi's military career is full of legends. His rise coincided with the opportunities of the times, which coincided with the reign of King Zhao of Qin, when the reform of the country's military system provided a stage for civilians to display their talents. Bai Qi benefited from the reform policies of King Qin Zhao and rose to prominence through the military merit system, and eventually became one of the leaders of the Warring States period.

Secondly, the Battle of Changping is considered to be the most influential battle in Bai Qirongma's life. Bai Qi skillfully used tactics and psychological strategies, and successfully broke through the last line of defense of Zhao by retreating to lure the enemy and dividing the encirclement and annihilation. He was well versed in the situation of the enemy and us, and was good at seizing the opportunity, which led to the defeat of the Zhao State and made immortal military achievements for the Qin State to dominate the world.

Bai Qi's detailed control in the Battle of Changping is even more breathtaking. He even ordered soldiers to be forbidden to eat mutton in the army, which fully reflects his deep thinking and strict requirements for every detail. This kind of meticulous strategy is not only reflected in the tactical level, but also in the careful planning of the army's behavior, so that the entire army is like an arm and a finger on the battlefield.

In addition, Bai Qi's philosophy of war is profound and practical. He understands the ever-changing nature of war, and the devil is in the details. In the Battle of Changping, he deliberately cut off the grain and grass of the Zhao army, and finally won the victory by forcing the enemy army to fend for themselves. This practical and brilliant philosophy of war provided valuable lessons for later military commanders.

In general, Bai Qi, as an outstanding military commander in the history of Chinese warfare, made immortal contributions to the rise of the Qin State and the unification of the world with his profound military talent and outstanding strategic wisdom. His performance in the Battle of Changping is even more classic, and he has become a model for later military leaders to learn from Xi. The war wisdom and military strategies he left behind are still worthy of in-depth study and reference. In the long history of China, Bai Qi's glorious achievements will always be praised by people.
