Qindu Xianyang, the hinterland of Qinchuan. Weishui passes through the south, Zongshan is in the north, and the mountains and rivers are yang, so it is called Xianyang. Qin Zhixian, a descendant of Emperor Zhuan, to the Yin Shang era, due to the merits of the auxiliary, was able to divide the princes, rule the Xirong region, and ensure the tranquility of the Xu frontier, Qin took this as a starting point and gradually gained a firm foothold.

After entering the week, he still defended the western region.

King Zhou You was killed, the royal family was in danger, Qin Xianggong fought to save Zhou, led the Qin soldiers to cover the king of Ping to move east to Luoyi, King Zhou Ping thanked the grace of Xianggong to grant the king of Qin the right to "attack Xirong, that is, to have its land", Qin from then on to the eastward as the goal of generations to strive for, to the era of Mu Gong finally realized the "hegemony of Xirong" of the grand wish, at this time, within the Hangu Pass, west of the Yellow River, basically owned by Qin. Historically, this piece of land was called the "homeland of the old Qin", and the people here were called the "old Qin people".

When it comes to the King of Qin Zhaoxiang who made the princes of the Six Kingdoms frightened, one person has to mention that the previous King of Qin "King Qin Wu", reigned for only four years, King Qin Huiwen died, and the crown prince Yingdang ascended the throne, he was King Wu of Qin.

King Wu of Qin is tall and strong, superhuman in bravery, heavy and warlike, often takes pleasure in fighting strength, and all those who are brave and strong, he is promoted to a general and placed by his side. Wu Shu and Ren Con were famous for their courage and strength, and King Wu of Qin made an exception and promoted them to generals and gave them high remuneration.

Meng Ben, a native of Qi, has infinite strength, bravely crowns Haidai, and is known as "the land line is not afraid of tigers and wolves, and the water line does not avoid dragons, and one person can subdue two bison at the same time." "I heard that King Qin Wu reused the world's warriors, Meng Ben went to Xianyang to meet King Qin Wu, King Qin Wu learned of Meng Ben's name, summoned to the main hall to see in person, only to see Meng Ben burly, a piece of muscle collapsed, love it, on the spot raised the copper tripod face did not change color appointed as a general, and Wu Yu, Ren Despise enjoy the same treatment.

As early as the time of King Huiwen of Qin, Zhang Yi entered Qin to offer a plan: the Qin army entered the Central Plains in the east, first took Yiyang, an important military town in South Korea and the gateway of Luoyang, the capital of Zhou, and used Yiyang as a springboard to control the second Zhou and Zhou Tianzi in the east and west, and took the Jiuding as a symbol to coerce the Son of Heaven and order the princes to establish the overlord of the Central Plains.

Because King Qin Huiwen concentrated his forces to destroy Shu in order to consolidate the rear at that time, Zhang Yi's plan was temporarily put aside. After King Qin Wu ascended the throne, he had destroyed Shu, the rear was consolidated, the national strength was flourishing, King Qin Wu wanted to conquer abroad, and naturally remembered what Zhang Yi had said, especially the Jiuding that symbolized the world was more interested, so he said to the right prime minister and the left prime minister Gan Mao: "The widow was born in Xirong, and he has not been to Luoyang, the capital of Zhou, and I don't know how prosperous the Central Plains is." The widow longs for one day to drive into Zhou Wangji to travel and see the Son of Heaven's heavy weapon Jiuding. If you can get your wish, you will be willing to die. I don't know the two, who can cut down Yiyang for the widow and enter the Central Plains?"

If Wei and Zhao Erguo send troops to rescue Yiyang, the Qin army will go deep into danger alone, and once it fails, the consequences will be unimaginable."

King Wu of Qin was very unhappy when he heard this. At this time, Gan Mao said: "To attack Han Yiyang, we must first break the Han and Wei alliances, as long as Wei helps Qin, it is impossible for Zhao to cross Wei to save Han, Han is isolated, and Yiyang City may be broken by the Qin army." ”

King Wu of Qin was overjoyed and sent Gan Mao as an envoy to Wei. Gan Mao met with the King of Wei and lured him to share the benefits of the invasion of Korea, and established an alliance with the King of Wei to jointly attack Korea by Qin and Wei.

Gan Mao was afraid that King Wu of Qin would change his mind during the attack on Yiyang, so he sent a deputy envoy to report to King Wu: "King Wei has agreed to invade Korea with Qin. Although it has the support of Wei, it is better not to cut Yiyang. ”

King Wu listened very puzzled, since he had been relieved of his worries, why he still couldn't cut down Han, so he personally rushed to Xiyang to summon Gan Mao, Gan Mao had already expected that the king would come in person, prepare a banquet and wait, King Wu personally arrived, seeing that Gan Mao was strict in commanding the army, and the army couldn't help but nod again and again, the soldiers attacked and the generals were also attacked, and the generals were also killed, and the soldiers of a country were far inferior to the generals of a country, if a virtuous man could appear enough to resist tens of thousands of troops.

At the banquet, King Wu asked Gan Mao why he had changed his plan to attack Han. Gan Mao said: "The city of Yiyang is strong, and the soldiers are good enough to eat. The Qin army risked thousands of miles to attack Yiyang, which was by no means effective in a short period of time. If the attack on Yiyang is extended, someone will inevitably slander in front of the king, and the king will listen to the villain's words, and the ministers will not only fail to attack Yiyang, but also lose their reputation. ”

King Wu laughed when he heard this, "I don't want to just listen to the villain's words just for such a trivial matter, I am willing to settle an alliance with you and relieve your worries." ”

Gan Mao got up: "If this is the case, Gan Mao will definitely capture Yiyang to repay the king's kindness!" ”

King Wu ordered someone to take pen and ink, and the monarch and ministers in the big tent signed the covenant in person. The covenant was signed, and Gan Mao immediately raised troops and led 50,000 troops to attack Yiyang.

The defenders of Yiyang could not hold out, relying on the advantages of the city wall to deal with the Qin army, the siege weapons were limited, and Gan Mao attacked Yiyang for five months, without effect. At this time, the right prime minister, said to King Wu: "It has been five months since the Qin army attacked Yiyang City, and it has been exhausted and its spirit is lost. ”

King Wu listened to the words of Zhu Liji, and if he could not capture Yiyang in May, it must be that the overseers were unfavorable, and sent someone to summon Gan Mao's class to return to the court.

Gan Mao laughed when he saw the envoy, and immediately wrote a letter and asked someone to bring it to King Wu. King Wu opened the letter and looked at it, only the word "Xiyang", and suddenly realized. So he sent 50,000 reinforcements, and ordered Wu to lead him to help Ganmao. Gan Mao got a new force and greatly increased his troops, so he took Wushu as the vanguard, repelled the Korean reinforcements, captured the lonely city of Yiyang, and killed 70,000 Korean troops. Korea was in great distress and hurriedly sued for peace with Qin.

The Qin army occupied Yiyang, and the door to Luoyang, the capital of Zhou, was opened. Prince Wu of Qin led Ren Wei and Meng Ben to attack Luoyang on a large scale. Zhou Tianzi was powerless to resist, so he had to go out to meet the Qin army.

In the past, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, now out to welcome the princes, the Qin army under the city did not dare to look, the heart was worried, the expression was uneasy, for fear that the brave and ruthless King Qin Wu would do something unfavorable to himself, King Qin Wu knew the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and it was not difficult to do it, and he settled down and went straight to the Zhou Temple to see Jiuding.

I saw nine treasures lined up in the hall. This nine tripods are Yu to collect the tribute of the world's Kyushu cast, each tripod represents a state, a total of Jing, Liang, Yong, Henan, Xu, Qing, Yang, Yan, Hebei Kyushu, engraved on the state of the mountains and rivers figures, the number of land tribute. King Wu examined them one by one, and when he saw the Yongzhou Ding, he said to the ministers: "Has anyone lifted this Ding?"

The keeper replied: "Since there is a tripod, I have not heard of and no one has ever seen the tripod, this tripod weighs a thousand pounds, who can lift it!"

King Wu asked the two generals Ren and Meng Ben: "Two people, can you lift it?"

Ren Wei knew that King Wu was competitive, and thanked him politely: "The minister can only lift a hundred things." This is a lot of weight, and the minister can't do it. Meng Ben stretched out his arms and walked to the front of the tripod and said, "Let the ministers try to lift it, if you can't lift it, don't blame it." After that, he tightened his belt, rolled up his sleeves, grabbed two tripod ears, and shouted "Get up!", only to see that the tripod was half a foot high from the ground, and it fell heavily, Meng Ben felt dizzy and couldn't stand, but fortunately he was pulled left and right, and he didn't fall to the ground.

King Wu looked at it and laughed: "Can you lift the Ding high to the ground, is the widow not as good as you?"

Ren contempt persuaded: "The body of the king is ten thousand times, don't try your strength lightly." King Wu stubbornly didn't listen, took off the brocade robe belt, tightened his belt, strode forward, Ren Yan pulled King Wu and tried to dissuade him, King Wu said angrily: "You can't lift it, don't you want to be outnumbered?"

King Wu was angry, and Ren Despised did not dare to persuade again. King Wu stretched out his hand to grab Ding Er, thinking: "Meng Ben can only lift the ground, I should move a few steps after lifting it to show the height and height." So, take a deep breath, exert your strength, and shout: "Get up!" Ding was lifted up half a foot, King Wu then moved his left foot, but his right foot was difficult to support alone, his body was crooked, Ding fell to the ground, and he was smashed on his right foot, King Wu screamed and fell to the ground. Everyone hurriedly stepped forward and moved Ding away, only to see that the bone of King Wu's right foot was crushed, and a pool of blood flowed. When the imperial physician arrived, King Wu was already unconscious, still talking to himself; "My wish has been fulfilled, although I have no hatred in death."

At night, King Wu was in a state of despair. King Zhou Xun was shocked when he heard the report, and he cried in person, a generation of overlords died on the throne, and the warrior Meng Ben was also implicated, and the three clans were exterminated in accordance with the Qin law.
