What happened to the vertical attack on Qin, also known as the five-nation attack on Qin? The battle to attack Qin refers to that from the third year to the sixth year of Zheng (AD 3 18- BC 24 1), Chu, Zhao, Wei, Han, Yan and Qi successively attacked Qin (now Shaanxi, Henan and Shanxi) for about five times.

As we all know, after Shang Yang's political reform, the overall strength of Qin State has been continuously strengthened. After Qiang Qin, of course, the six Shandong countries were waiting for an opportunity and gradually continued to embezzle the territory of the six Shandong countries.

Therefore, in view of the strength of Qin, with the efforts of Gongsun Yan, Zhang Yi and other military strategists, the six Shandong countries once formed a coalition to fight back against Qin. In view of Shandong's six countries' vertical attack on Qin, the key is to better protect themselves, that is, to curb Qin's opening up and expansion. However, due to various reasons, such as the countries in the world don't know each other, the joint attack on Qin did not achieve ideal practical results. Especially in the first battle of Qin and Shandong, the six countries suffered heavy losses.

Generally speaking, the first war with Qin was also called the battle of repairing fish or the battle of Hangu Pass. As far as the background of this battle is concerned, in the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Yi was sent to the State of Qin, which was highly valued by King Huiwen of Qin. As far as Zhang Yi is concerned, from the perspective of Qin's rights and interests, I certainly look forward to breaking up the alliance among the six Shandong countries, thus creating a useful standard for the division of Qin. On this basis, Zhang Yi went to Wei to remonstrate with Qin, but she didn't agree.

So the teacher of Qin Renyi sent troops to attack Wei Hanoi in forty-seven years (before 322 years) and captured Quwo (now Wenxi northeast of Shanxi) and Pingzhou (now Jiexiu west of Shanxi); It didn't take long to occupy Yanling, South Korea (now northwest of Yanling, Henan). Naturally, the continuous assembly of the state of Qin objectively promoted the decision of the six countries in Shandong to report to the group for heating. In the third year of Liang Wang (the first 3 18), Gongsun Yan, the prime minister of Wei, launched a joint attack on Qin by Wei, Zhao, Han, Yan and Chu, and made him the leader.

Besides the armies of Wei, Han, Zhao, Yan and Chu, Gongsun Yan also persuaded Yi Qu to attack Qin after Qin. So, although Zhao didn't add it, Gongsun Yan actually planned a six-nation attack on Qin because of Yi Qu's participation. In 3 18 AD, the six-nation allied forces in Shandong had captured the Hangu Pass of Qin. As for Yi Quguo, they attacked Qin only after the main force of Qin entered Hangu Pass, and achieved good results.

From the outside, the state of Qin at this time can be said to be under siege. But after discovering that the six countries in Shandong were strangers, Qin found a way to win with one blow. Of the six countries in Shandong, Chu and Yan were not greatly influenced by Qin, so they were depressed and hesitant, that is, they did not go all out. For Zhao, although sending troops to cooperate with Wei and South Korea, because there was no large-scale war between Qin and Zhao at that time, Zhao was not the key hazard.

On this basis, Qin made it clear that the two key enemies, South Korea and Wei, had been annexed by Qin for a long time. Therefore, when they jointly attacked Qin for the first time, the two princes of course sent elite energy, hoping to defeat Qin and recapture the territory occupied by Qin. After this situation was established, the general of Qin State, Che Li Ji, led the two armies to confront each other. In 3 17 AD, the armies of Wei, Zhao and South Korea were defeated in Xiuyu (now Yuanyang West, Henan Province), killing 8.2 million people in Wei Jun, and Wei Jun fled.

That is, in the battle to repair fish, Wei lost more than 80 thousand soldiers. In view of the decline of Wei, this abandonment of armor and procrastination undoubtedly accelerated its decline, which was one of the factors that made Wei quiet in the second half of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Subsequently, the allies of Wei, Han and Zhao once again defeated Guan Ze (now Qingfeng South, Henan Province). After catching up with Guanze, Qin Jun defeated the Korean army, killed more than 30,000 Korean soldiers, and captured Han (a masterpiece) to apply.

Finally, as far as South Korea is concerned, although the number of casualties is not as good as that of Wei, it is only 30,000. South Korea is the weakest vassal among the seven warring countries, with a small territory and a small population. So the damage of this 30 thousand army is enough to make South Korea weaker. Qin defeated at least 1 10000 generals in this war with 80,000 troops from Wei and 30,000 troops from South Korea.

When General Qin got an incurable disease, Chu and Yan escaped, which did not help Wei, Zhao and South Korea at all. However, in historical materials, there is no record of how many soldiers Zhao lost, probably because Zhao sent fewer troops in the first battle with Qin.

The first attack on Qin was in 365,438+08-365,438+07 BC, and King Wuling of Zhao was not riding and shooting until 307 AD. Therefore, at that time, Zhao did not have the overall strength to send many soldiers, that is, the Sanjin at that time was still represented by Wei. It was not until King Wuling of Zhao was riding and shooting that Zhao Cai slowly replaced Wei and became the Three Kingdoms.

Generally speaking, just like the story of "one monk carries water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks drink less water", it seems that the six countries of Shandong cooperated to attack Qin, but this can not be coordinated. Coupled with the different rights and interests of countries around the world, there is usually wishful thinking among them, which is even more impossible to unite on the issue of joint attack on Qin. Therefore, the first joint attack on Qin, as long as Qin defeated South Korea and Wei, other governors were undoubtedly gone.
