Life of the characters
Early experience
Ganmao is from Xiacai (now Ganluo Township in Yingshang). Mr. Shi Ju, who once served Cai, learned from him the theories of various schools of thought. Later, through the introduction of Zhang Yi and chulizi, he got the opportunity to meet King Huiwen of Qin Dynasty. After receiving him, King Huiwen of Qin liked him very much and sent him to lead the army to help Wei Zhang capture Hanzhong area.
After the death of King Huiwen of Qin, King Wu of Qin ascended the throne. At that time, Zhang Yi and Wei Zhang had left the state of Qin and ran to the eastern state of Wei. Soon after, Duke of Qin Shu Hou Hui and his assistant minister Chen Zhuang conspired against him, and King Wu of Qin assigned Gan Mao to pacify Shu. After he was appointed Prime Minister of Qin, Zuo LiMao was appointed Prime Minister of Qin.
Vow of peace
In the third year of King Wu of Qin Dynasty (308 BC), King Wu of Qin Dynasty said to Gan Mao: "I have a wish to take a car with hanging curtains to see the capital of Zhou Dynasty through Sanchuan. Even if I die, I am satisfied." Gan Mao understood and said, "please allow me to go to the state of Wei and make an appointment with the state of Wei to attack South Korea, and ask Xiang Shou to help me go together." King Wu of Qin promised Gan Mao's request. When Gan Mao arrived in the state of Wei, he said to Xiang Shou, "go back and report the situation of your mission to King Wu, saying," the state of Wei has listened to my opinion, but I hope that the king will not attack South Korea first. ". It's a success. It's all due to you. "
Xiang Shou returns to the state of Qin and reports Gan Mao's words to King Wu of Qin. King Wu of Qin goes to xirang to welcome Gan Mao. When Gan Mao arrived in xirang, King Wu of Qin asked him why he didn't attack Korea first.
Gan Mao replied, "Yiyang is a big county. It's been a long time since Shangdang and Nanyang accumulated their wealth.". It's called county. It's actually a county. Now the king left the several dangerous passes he had been relying on and traveled thousands of miles to attack them. It was very difficult for him to win. Once upon a time, Zeng Shen lived in Feiyi. In the state of Lu, a man with the same surname as Zeng Shen killed a man. Someone told Zeng Shen's mother that "Zeng Shen killed a man." his mother was weaving and looked calm. After a while, a man came to tell his mother that he had killed a man. His mother was still weaving. After a while, another man told his mother, "Zeng Shen killed a man." his mother dropped the shuttle, got off the loom and ran over the wall. With Zeng Shen's virtue and his mother's deep belief in him, three people doubted him and made his mother really afraid that he would kill someone. Now my talent is not as good as Zeng Shen, and the king's trust in me is not as good as Zeng Shen's mother's trust in Zeng Shen, but there are not only three people who doubt me. I'm afraid that the king will doubt me just like Zeng mu. At the beginning, Zhang Yi annexed the land of Bashu in the west, expanded the territory outside the Xihe River in the north, and seized the golden mean in the south. People in the world did not praise Zhang Yi for this, but thought that Zhang Yi was a great king. Wei Wenhou asked LeYang to lead his troops to attack Zhongshan. It took him three years to attack Zhongshan. LeYang returns to the state of Wei to discuss Gong and ask for a reward, while Wei Wenhou shows him a box of information letters. He was so scared that he knelt down twice in a row and said, "it's not my credit. It all depends on the power of the Lord." Now I am a minister living here. Chulizi and Gongsun Dahong will argue with me about the gains and losses of attacking Korea on the grounds of Korea's strong national strength. The king will certainly listen to their opinions. In this way, the king will cheat the king of Wei, and I will be resented by Han Xianggong Zhongchi. "
King Qin Wu said, "I will not listen to them. Please let me make an oath with you." Finally let Gan Mao lead the troops to attack Yiyang. After five months of fighting, they couldn't win Yiyang. Chulizi and Gongsun Xun raised objections. King Wu called Gan Mao back to China and decided to withdraw. Gan Mao said, "xirang is there. Don't forget it." King Wu said, "there was an oath." So he mobilized all the troops, let Gan Mao attack Yiyang, beheaded 60000, and finally won Yiyang. Han Xiang sent Duke Zhong chi to the state of Qin to apologize and make peace with it.
Finally, King Wu of Qin passed through Sanchuan and arrived at the capital of Zhou. He went straight to the imperial temple of Zhou and visited Jiuding. Later, King Wu of Qin fought with Meng Ben and died. His younger brother ascended the throne, that is, King Zhaoxiang of Qin. Empress Dowager Xuan, the mother of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, was a woman of the state of Chu. King Huai of Chu resented that when the state of Qin defeated the state of Chu in Danyang, South Korea could not help him, so he led the army to besiege the Yong family of South Korea. King Han sent Duke Zhongchi to the state of Qin for help. King Zhaoxiang of Qin had just ascended the throne, and Empress Dowager Xuan was a native of Chu, so she refused to send troops to rescue. Gong Zhongqi entrusted Gan Mao, and Gan Mao said to Qin Zhaoxiang Wang Jinyan on behalf of South Korea, "it is precisely because Gong Zhongqi is expected to be rescued by the state of Qin that he dares to resist the state of Chu. At present, Yong's family is under siege, and Qin's army refuses to go down to Cuishan for rescue. Gong Zhongchi will despise Qin and hold his head high. Uncle Han will also let South Korea unite with the state of Chu. Once the state of Chu and South Korea unite as a force, the state of Wei will not dare to listen to it. In this way, the situation of attacking the state of Qin will be formed. Do you think it is better to wait for others to attack than to take the initiative to attack others? " Qin Zhaoxiang said, "good." So they let the army go down to Choi Shan to save South Korea. The Chu army withdrew immediately.
Power struggle
King Zhaoxiang of Qin asked Xiang Shou to pacify Yiyang, and sent chulizi and Gan Mao to attack the PI family of Wei state. Xiang Shou, a relative of Empress Dowager Xuan's mother's family, was very close to King Zhaoxiang of Qin from his youth, so he was appointed by King Zhaoxiang of Qin. Xiang Shou arrived in the state of Chu first. When King Huai of Chu heard that King Zhaoxiang of Qin respected Xiang Shou very much, he treated him with courtesy.
Xiang Shou was stationed in Yiyang for the state of Qin, preparing to attack South Korea accordingly. Han Xianggong Zhongchi sent Su Dai to Xiang Shou and said, "when the wild animals are besieged, they can knock down the hunter's car. Although you broke Korea, gongzhongqi was humiliated, but gongzhongqi could still clean up the situation in Korea and serve the state of Qin. He would think that he would be granted by the state of Qin. Now you give JIEKOU to the state of Chu, and you give duyang to Xiaoling Yin, so that Qin and Chu can make friends. The combination of Qin and Chu is nothing more than another attack on South Korea, which is bound to perish. If Korea was to perish, Gong Zhongchi would lead his private followers to resist Qin. I hope you think it over. "
Xiang Shou said, "I didn't unite with Qin and Chu to deal with South Korea. You make this statement to Gong Zhongqi for me, saying that the relationship between Qin and South Korea can be cooperative."
Su Dai replied, "I'd like to say a word to you. People say that only by respecting what others respect can we win others' respect for ourselves. The king of Qin is not as close to you as he is to Gongsun, and his appreciation of your wisdom and talent is not as good as his appreciation of Gan Mao. But now these two people can't directly participate in the important affairs of the state of Qin, but you can only make decisions with the king of Qin. What's the reason? Each of them has its own place to lose trust. Gongsun was partial to Korea, while Gan Mao was partial to Wei, so the king of Qin did not trust them. Now the state of Qin is competing with the state of Chu, but you are partial to the state of Chu. This is the same road as Gongsun and Gan Mao. How can you distinguish yourself from them? People say that the state of Chu is a country that is good at contingency. You are bound to fall into trouble when you make friends with the state of Chu. You might as well plan with the king of Qin to deal with the contingency strategy of the state of Chu, be friendly with South Korea and guard against the state of Chu, so that there will be no worries. When Korea and Qin got together, they would first hand over the state affairs to Gongsun, listen to his opinions, and then entrust the state to Gan Mao. Korea is your enemy. Now you have proposed to be friendly with South Korea and guard against Chu. This is a diplomatic alliance without avoiding enemies. " Xiang Shou said, "well, I really want to cooperate with South Korea."
Su Dai replied, "Gan Mao once promised Gong Zhongqi to return wusui to Korea and let the people of Yiyang return to Yiyang. Now you just want to take back wusui. It's hard to do that." Xiang Shou said, "in that case, what should we do? Wu Sui can't get it after all? "
Su Dai replied, "why don't you borrow the prestige of the state of Qin to ask for the return of Yingchuan from the state of Chu for South Korea? Yingchuan is the place where South Korea places its trust. If you ask for it and get it, this is the implementation of your decree in the state of Chu. Let South Korea thank you for taking the territory of Chu. If you take it but can't get it, then the resentment between South Korea and Chu can't be resolved, and they will curry favor with Qin. Qin and Chu are striving for strength. You blame Chu bit by bit to make Han gradually approach you. This is greatly beneficial to Qin. " After hearing this, Xiang Shou weighed the pros and cons. He couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he said, "how can I do it well?"
Sudai immediately replied, "this is a good thing. Gan Mao wanted to attack the state of Qi with the power of Wei, while Gong Sun Xun planned to attack the state of Qi with the power of South Korea. Now you have won the credit of Yiyang, won the trust of Chu and South Korea, and made them settle down, and then punished the crimes of Qi and Wei. Because of this, the plans of Gongsun Xun and Gan Mao will all come to nothing, and their power in Qin will be further weakened. "
Gan Mao finally proposed to King Qin Zhaoxiang that Wu Sui should be returned to South Korea. Xiang Shou and Gongsun tried to oppose it, but they failed. Xiang Shou and Gong Sun Xun were resentful and often spoke ill of Gan Mao in front of King Zhaoxiang of Qin Dynasty. Gan Mao was afraid that something might happen, so he stopped attacking the state of Wei and fled. Chulizi reconciled with the state of Wei and withdrew his troops
