Secondly, I think it's Yan and Zhao. In both countries, more than one department continued its activities, but after a long delay, it finally died out.
Let's have a look. How did it cost six countries?
1, Qin destroyed Korea, the country that is the easiest to fight.
South Korea was originally the weakest party in the Sanjin. When Han Huan arrived, Han had surrendered to Qin. In the early years of Qin Shihuang, the territory of South Korea was even smaller, leaving only the capital Yangzhai and surrounding small and medium-sized cities 10, which was basically a country in name only.
South Korea is the smallest among the seven countries, but its position is the most important. It stifled Qin's eastward advance from Hangu Pass, and if Qin wanted to merge and destroy the six countries, it must first destroy Korea, thus forming a continuous situation of Qin-Korea war. After Qin's repeated attacks, South Korea's land has been shrinking, and South Korea expressed its willingness to become a vassal of Qin.
In the seventeenth year of Qin Shihuang (230 BC), the State of Qin began to destroy the Six Kingdoms. Qin Wei completely destroyed North Korea, and Songshi led the army to attack North Korea again, but North Korea was unable to resist. Nestor easily commanded Qin Jun to conquer the capital of North Korea, captured Wang An of North Korea and rebuilt the land of North Korea into Yingchuan County. In this way, South Korea became the first country to be destroyed at that time.
2, Qin destroyed Zhao, although there is resistance, but a distraction, Zhao will not get it.
Although Qin and Zhao had the same surname from the earliest point of view, they were old enemies during the Warring States period, and the two families were also very bitter. After many battles such as the battle of Changping and the siege of Handan, Zhao's strength was greatly weakened.
Yan is dishonest at this time and wants to take the opportunity to hit Zhao. Fighting with Zhao for many times gave Qin an opportunity.
In the same year that Qin destroyed Korea, there was a drought in Zhao. Therefore, Qin took action against Ye Zhao and destroyed the afterglow of North Korea.
In the 18th year of Qin Shihuang (AD 229), Wang Jianwei was the commander in chief, and the soldiers were divided into three ways to lead Zhao. Wang Jian first took Jingxing, the outer defense line, and then surrounded Handan with several troops.
At the beginning of the war, Li Mu and Sima were still in command, but they could resist. But Qin played a multi-line attack. As soon as it was difficult to storm, it immediately took a diversion. As a result, Zhao was recruited again, Li Mu was killed and Sima Shang was arrested. In this way, Zhao's last solid line of defense also collapsed. Three months later, in the second year, Zhao's resistance troops were wiped out. Persuaded by the traitor Zhao, Zhao Kaicheng surrendered.
Although Zhao is dead, there is still something left. Gong Zijia fled to Dai Di (now northeast of Yuxian County, Hebei Province) and became king. It resisted for another six or seven years. By 222 BC, Wang Ben (the son of Wang Jian) was destroyed by Qin, and Gong Zijia committed suicide (or moved to Xirong). Zhao, founded more than 250 years ago, finally perished.
3, Qin Yan, that is almost effortless. But the process is tortuous.
In the process of destroying Zhao, the army of Qin reached the border of Yan. The prince is in a state of panic. Seeing that Qin destroyed Sanjin, he wanted to commit suicide, but there was nothing he could do.
Yan Taizi Dan finally came up with a desperate assassination method, that is, the famous Jing Ke stabbed the king of Qin to death in 227 BC. The assassination failed, but the king of Qin almost died under Jing Ke's dagger, which gave Qin Shihuang the best reason to attack Yan. While destroying Zhao's afterglow, he continued to March towards Yan.
In 226 years ago, Qin Jun captured Yan Dou thistle (now Beijing), and Yan and Taizi Dan fled to Liaodong County.
Li Xin, the general of the State of Qin, led thousands of people in Qin Jun and chased Taizi Dan to Yanshui (now Hunhe, Liaoning).
Prince Taizi Dan survived because he was lurking in the water.
Later, after weighing the interests, Wang Xi of Yan sent someone to kill Taizi Dan and dedicate his head to Qin, hoping to get a truce and keep Yan.
After Prince Xi fled to Liaodong, Qin Jun's main force was transferred to the downtown to attack Chu.
In the twenty-fifth year of the King of Qin (222 BC), Wang Ben was ordered to attack the remnants of Yan State in Liaodong, capture the Ledu of Rebecca, and Yan State was completely destroyed.
4. Qin destroyed Wei, Yancheng, and Wei surrendered.
At that time, the strength of Han and Wei dynasties was very weak. By the time of Qin Shihuang, most of the land was occupied by Qin State. After the demise of Zhao, the Qin army was divided into two roads, all the way to the northeast to resist Yan. The main purpose of attacking Wei all the way south is actually to attack southern Chu.
The destruction of Wei was also led by Wang Ben. In the twenty-second year of Qin Shihuang (225 BC), Qin sent troops to attack Daliang (now Kaifeng, Henan), the capital of Wei Dynasty.
Wang Ben, commander-in-chief of the Qin battlefield, thought that the wall of Daliang City was strong and it was difficult to attack and pull it out in a short time, so he led the Yellow River water from the gap to irrigate Daliang City.
After three months of war, the city walls collapsed, Wei came out and was killed by Wang Ben. Wei perished, and Qin established its own land as the East County.
5. Qin destroyed Chu and Wang Jian's brilliant battle of 600,000 troops.
Chu is located in the south, with the largest geographical area in the Spring and Autumn Period, including the early Warring States period and before the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Six Kingdoms, and has always been the largest country among the Seven Heroes. Although Qin Chu also fought many battles, the strength of Chu was still very strong after Qin destroyed Zhao and Yan Wei.
In 225 BC, Qin Shihuang first sent Major General Li Xin and Meng Tian to lead 200,000 soldiers and horses to attack Chu. The result was trapped by the enemy and surrounded by Chu. Then Qin was defeated, and Li Xin fled back to Qin under the cover of Meng Tian.
Qin Shihuang learned this lesson, gave 600,000 troops to Wang Jian, and began a protracted war to destroy Chu.
In 224 BC, Wang Jian and Wu Meng led an army of 600,000 to attack the State of Chu, and the State of Chu mobilized the whole country to fight against it. Wang Jian adopted a plan to delay his troops. Fight a defensive war of attrition with the Chu army. Among them, the State of Qin tightened its belt to provide food for 600,000 troops, and the King of Qin was in charge of the war in Chen Ying (now Huaiyang County, Zhoukou City, Henan Province).
Wang Jian adopted the operational policy of fighting back in self-defense, avoiding decisive battle, conserving physical strength and waiting for an opportunity to attack. The Chu army repeatedly challenged and refused to come out.
Wang Jian lives with soldiers, cares about their diet and daily life, and pays attention to the combination of work and rest. At the same time, throwing stones and long jumping can improve soldiers' physical strength and combat skills.
Chu Jun, on the other hand, can't fight well. For a long time, the fighting spirit is scattered, and food consumption and supplies are insufficient. Xiang Yan had to lead the army to withdraw eastward.
Wang Jian captured the fighter plane, selected the elite soldiers ahead, pursued them, and defeated the Chu army in Qinan (now southeast of Suzhou, Anhui), killing Xiang Yan. Qin Jun took advantage of the situation and captured many cities in Chu.
In the twenty-fourth year of Qin Shihuang (223 BC), Wang Jian and Wu Meng led Qin Jun to continue to attack the Chu State in depth, and broke through Shouchun (now southwest of Shouxian County, Anhui Province) in one fell swoop. The king of Chu was captured and the State of Chu was destroyed. Wang Jian continued to March to the south of the Yangtze River and occupied the land beyond. Qin established Chu County in Chu, and soon it was divided into Jiujiang County, Changhe County and Huiji County.
Chu's tenacity is yet to come. Decades later, after the death of Qin Shihuang, an uprising broke out in Chu. Finally, Xiang Yu was effective in destroying Qin, and Liu Bang captured Xianyang and Qin Dou, which in turn destroyed Qin.
6. Qin destroyed Qi and surrendered without a fight.
Qin was finally destroyed by Qi, which was far away from Qin, and there were other countries in the middle. He has always dominated the East, never prepared for military reform and combat readiness, and his political numbness is amazing.
When the other five countries perished, Qi stood by and ignored them, even unaware of their own danger. Not even prepared for the war.
In the 26th year of Qin Shihuang (22 1 BC), Wang Ben moved eastward into Liaodong, wiped out the remnants of the Yan State and captured the prince alive.
Then he led the army south, suddenly attacked north from Yannan, and took Linzi directly.
Qi was unprepared for the war and had no soldiers to fight.
After the victory of King Xiang of Qi, he persuaded the King of Qi to surrender (like Zhao, there were a large number of traitors), and Qi surrendered without a fight.
Qi put the sent to this place between * * * and starvation. The king of subjugation, who was greedy for pleasure and lost his country, came to a proper end.
On the whole, the process of Qin destroying the six countries was only Chu, and it was clearly recorded in the history books that 600,000 troops were used. Other estimates are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands at most, and only Chu, Wang Jian and the other party have used it for more than a year. Most of the others were pointed out by soldiers and invincible.
So the conclusion is as follows: as far as difficulty is concerned. Chu is the most difficult place, followed by Zhao (after the siege in March, I lived for several years), Yan (after the siege changed, I lived for several years), Wei (after the siege for three months), Qi and Han.
