The Zhongxing of the Zhao State was destroyed by the Qin State, and the death of the King of Wuling cut off the road of talents

Wuling hated the sand dunes, and the reputation of the Zhao clan was not eliminated. The years have passed and the spring is lonely, and the old hall sparrow mouse is still ashamed. - Palace has Dune: The old thing is revisited.

Spring blossoms and autumn fruits, a hundred lines of thinking.

The Warring States period is back in turmoil.

If the Spring and Autumn Period was a great emancipation of the mind, then the Warring States Period was a great change in the social system.

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was an era, but the people at that time did not have this concept, because the Central Plains at that time was still called Zhou, although the etiquette collapsed, but the Son of Heaven Zhou Tianzi was still the nominal co-lord of the vassal states.

When a person is strong, the vassal states are strong, there will always be a rising desire, and it has become a stepping stone, especially the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, who are gradually dissatisfied"Male"If you want to go to a high place, you will simply ask for the title of king at this time.

This is why the rulers of the vassal states initially became dukes, marquises, and similar titles, but by the middle and late Warring States period, they almost all became kings.

Eventually, Chao's power was short-lived.

The reign of Han, Zhao, and Wei marked the beginning of the Warring States Period, and the Central Plains region became the center of civilization for a time. However, by the end of the Warring States period, the balance of China's unification gradually tilted in favor of the Qin state on the western border of the Central Plains, and only the Zhao state stood in the way of the Qin state.

Well, what is"Join"Power source?

Of course, it was the Hufu cavalry archery king of Zhao State, and after reform and reform, Zhao State once became the only superpower that could compete with Qin State.

But it was all short-lived.

After King Zhao Wuling starved to death, the Zhao State began to prosper, so what impact did King Zhao Wuling's starvation have on the Zhao State? It can be said that it directly paved the way for the demise of the Zhao State.

The reason why the revived Zhao State could not defeat the Qin State was because the death of King Zhao Wuling interrupted the path of talents, so we must start with the death of King Zhao Wuling in famine.

King Wuling of Zhao unfortunately passed away.

In 295 BC, the political situation in the state of Zhao changed dramatically, and Zhao Yong was trapped in the palace of the Dunes and starved to death. Although Zhao Yong had abdicated at that time, and his son Zhao Huiwen, King Zhao He, had already understood what the way to be a king was, Zhao He was still too young to support the speed machine that would eventually become Zhao Guo.

The power of the continent also fell into the hands of Li Dui, the assassin of Wuling, the king of Zhou, Li Dui starved to death, and Gongzi Cheng also died after a few years of doing it in the Zhou phase, and it was Li Dui who controlled the Zhou for a long time.

King Wuling of Zhao made great achievements for the state of Zhao, and it can be said that without him, the state of Zhao would not have reached the center of prosperity, and it would not have been possible to launch a great struggle against the powerful state of Qin at the end of the Warring States period. It's a pity that he didn't die in battle, but was starved to death by Li Dui and others, which is a great irony.

As for whether King Zhao Huiwen participated in the death of King Zhao Wuling, there is no exact record in the history books, some people think that King Zhao Huiwen is too young to participate, and some people say that King Zhao Huiwen did not avenge his father and did not seize his father's power, which is also a kind of acquiescence, regardless of whether he participated in the death of King Zhao Wuling, after the death of King Zhao Wuling, there is still hope for Zhao to unify the Central Plains.

None of Joe's crafts can be trusted.

King Wuling of Zhao was devoured and killed by the powerful minister Li Dui, this incident seemed to have no effect on Zhao, but the impact on Zhao actually hung over the palace of Zhao until the fall of Zhao, and the dark clouds disappeared.

This cloud, Zhao Junguijun and foreign ministers are afraid, the era of King Zhao Huiwen can be said to be the era of the Zhao family, Lian Po, Lin Xiangru, and Zhao Hao all appeared in this period, but King Zhao Huiwen, although they reused them, did not dare to give them too much power.

Lian Po fought for Zhao all his life, and was finally suspicious of King Zhao and died in a foreign country; Lin Xiangru saved face for King Zhao many times diplomatically, but he was never crowned king in his life; Zhao Hao only won a battle for Zhao and was named Ma Shuijun, but since then there has been no war, no more pastries to eat, and even the last life-saving benefactor was suspicious of King Zhao and was killed.

The most direct reason why these great talents from Chao Country did not avoid a tragic end is that the next monarch of Chao Country was afraid that these foreign ministers would seize the power of the country and become a big trouble, and they were also worried that they would be starved to death like King Chao Wuling, so these talented scholars did not get the power and status they deserved in Chao Country in the end.

The old aristocratic ** system laid the foundation for the fall of Chao Wrong.

During the reign of King Zhao Xiaocheng, the demise of the Zhao State was already expected, because in the Battle of Changping, the Zhao State was faced with hundreds of thousands of descendants of the Zhao State, and the Zhao State that King Zhao Wuling had worked so hard to consolidate ceased to exist with the death of these soldiers.

King Zhao Xiaocheng consulted three people on the question of whether Feng Ting should send Shangdangjun, but got a result in vain that he did not want: Zhao Bao, Zhao Sheng, and Zhao Yu.

It can be said that only Zhao Bao knows the current situation in Zhao Guo. He persuaded King Zhao not to want him, but Zhao Sheng and Zhao Yu also persuaded King Zhao to want him, and King Zhao also wanted to get him, which formed a three-to-one situation, and King Zhao took the Shangdang region in this way, and since then the decisive battle of millions of heroes in the history of the Warring States broke out, and Zhao was defeated.

We can see that the people asked by King Zhao are all from the Zhao clan, and there are no outsiders involved in such a big matter, which shows that King Zhao has returned to the old road of aristocratic autocracy in the past, and he doesn't know how to listen to the right words, and of course he doesn't know how to make the right decisions, so the collapse of the Zhao State is already obvious at this time.

What impact did King Wuling of Zhao have on the state of Zhao? It can be said that this incident directly paved the way for his death. After the reform, the powerful vassal states will no longer confront the old system, and the victory over the old system means the rise of the vassal states, and the vassal states that continue to rule the vassal states with the old system will be destroyed; The Qin State did the first point, and the rest of the vassal states, including the Zhao State, could not jump the second hurdle.

Why couldn't the transformed Zhao state defeat the Qin state? Because the death of King Zhao Wuling cut off the road to talent. The strength of the vassal states is inseparable from the talents, and the continuous flow of talents is the source of strength to ensure the continuous progress of the country. The starvation of the ministers of Zhao Wuling led to the distrust of foreign ministers and the suspicion of talents, and at the same time brought the Zhao state one step closer to destruction.

In the history of the Warring States period, we can see that the Qin State was an ideal place for the robes to give full play to their extraordinary talents. The rulers of the Qin State never hesitated to reward these talents, allowing them to share their power, as long as you have the ability to really strengthen the country, you can get almost everything you want, so the talents rushed to the Qin State, and the country became stronger and stronger.

Du Mu once wrote in "A Fang Gongfu":"The six countries destroyed the six countries, but not the Qin state. "This can be said to be accurate. The Qin State only wiped out the armies of the Six Kingdoms, but in fact, it was unable to completely change the old system of aristocratic rule that led to the demise of the Six Kingdoms.
