The prosperity of a dynasty begins with the appointment of talents and the determination to reform; The decline of a dynasty began with internal disputes and life-and-death conspiracy struggles.

Qin Neng unified the six countries and annexed the four seas without the assistance of famous officials; When II died, he was also provoked by sinister villains.

Meng Tian, the "first warrior of Qin State", happened to be the witness and witness of a dynasty from prosperity to decline.

Flowers of a famous soldier

Meng Tian, Rainbow and Wang Li were born in a famous military commander's family during the Warring States Period.

Meng Tian's grandfather Meng Ao took refuge in Zhao Xiang, the king of Qin, from Qi, just in time for Shang Yang's political reform. After that, Qin established a military title system and established an army known as "the teacher of tigers and wolves". With his extraordinary bravery, he led the troops to attack Korea and Zhao until the official worshipped Shangqing.

Meng Tian's father Wu Meng followed the famous soldier Wang Jian. He served as a lieutenant twice and participated in the battle to attack and destroy Chu. He was also one of the famous military commanders at that time.

It is in such a powerful growing environment that Meng Tian and his younger brother Meng Yi have been exposed to each other since childhood, and have gradually grown into young heroes who are ambitious and determined to take the lead and serve the country. He was brilliant, familiar with the art of war, and showed good military talent very early.

Brilliant achievements

In 22 1 year BC, Meng Tian first appeared in the history books and followed Wang Ben to attack Qi. The campaign went very well. After the demise of the State of Qi, he was naturally named as the civil history (the chief executive of the capital of Qin) for his achievements.

But Montaigne's story didn't end there. After Qin annexed the world, the Xiongnu in the north became a big worry for Qin Shihuang. They harassed the border all the year round, making the border people restless, showing a desolate and dilapidated scene.

After that, Meng Tian was ordered to lead 300,000 troops to explore the Huns in the north. This road is vast and unstoppable. It has successively recovered Henan (the area of Yikezhao League south of Hetao, Inner Mongolia) and set up 34 counties from Yuzhong to Yinshan.

Then, he led the army to cross the Yellow River, occupied Yangshan, immigrated to the real border, and managed the originally desolate border crossings vividly.

In order to further resist the Huns, he recruited able-bodied men, connected the Great Wall built by Yan, Zhao and Qin into a whole, and built the Great Wall of Wan Li from Liaodong in the east to Lintao (now Min County, Gansu Province) in the west.

The Great Wall stretches for thousands of years and stands tall, shutting out countless ethnic minorities who intend to go south, bringing respite for the Central Plains dynasty and benefiting future generations. Meng Tian's contribution is indispensable.

After this battle with Xiongnu, Meng Tian became famous in World War I, making him famous all over the world. Since then, he has been stationed in Shang Jun for more than ten years, and the Huns dare not make a move again, so that the border can recuperate, develop production and gradually prosper.

Qin Shihuang is undoubtedly a person who loves talents. Meng Tian was brilliant, which undoubtedly won his appreciation and favor.

He not only trusted Meng Tian, but also had close ties with Meng Tian's younger brothers, Meng Yi and Meng Yi, who were all cronies of Qin Shihuang. When he goes out, he rides with him.

One of the two brothers is fighting outside, and the other is making suggestions in the court. Their scenery was so good that no one in the civil and military circles of Manchu dared to compete with them.

Laozi once said, "Misfortune lies in happiness, and Misfortune lies in happiness." Although the two brothers have infinite scenery, at the same time, the curse is quietly buried, like a time bomb, which may detonate at any time.

Meteor falling

Meng Yi is honest, strict in law enforcement and not afraid of powerful people. On one occasion, Zhao Gao, then a chamberlain, made a mistake. He was sentenced to death according to law, but was pardoned by Qin Shihuang.

Since then, the seeds of hatred have taken root in Zhao Gao's heart. He has been looking for opportunities to kill the Montessori brothers.

In 2 10 BC, Qin Shihuang died in a sand dune during a cruise. Zhao Gao and Prime Minister Reese quickly blocked the news, but Meng Ke, who was ordered to pray for Qin Shihuang's sacrifice, didn't know.

Zhao Gao's hands and feet were agile, and he immediately seized Qin Shihuang's testamentary edict after blocking the news. He was worried that Fu Su would reuse Meng Tian against him after he ascended the throne, so he conspired with Hu Hai to coerce Reese to forge a testamentary edict, spread the emperor to Hu Hai, and fabricated charges to execute Fu Su and Meng Tian.

In feudal times, when the monarch wanted to die, the minister had to die; If a father wants his son dead, how dare his son disobey? Fu Su didn't have much precautions, so he had to submit to humiliation and commit suicide, but Meng Tian became suspicious. He sent a letter to the messenger, asking, asking, and excusing himself.

Helpless, the emissary took Meng Tian to Yangzhou and imprisoned him, waiting for the will of Qin Ershi and Hu Hai. After Fu Su's death, Hu Hai felt that no one could threaten his position and wanted to let the Montessori brothers go.

However, Zhao Gao was afraid that they would benefit him again, and he was determined to destroy them.

One is rumour, claiming that on the issue of establishing a prince, Meng once spoke ill of Hu Hai in front of the first emperor, which successfully aroused Hu Hai's antipathy. He immediately ordered Meng Qian to be imprisoned and put to death, and then sent messengers to kill Meng Tianci.

Meng Tian has learned the death of Qin Shihuang and the news that his younger brother Meng Yi was killed. The messenger declared: "There are too many emperors, but your brother Meng Ke has committed a great crime, and the law involves internal history. It poisoned the poisoned wine. "

Water under the bridge. Everything became clear. In the first emperor's testamentary edict, he was accused of infidelity, and Qin Ershi and Hu Hai were charged with "sitting together". He is irrefutable again. With 300,000 troops in hand, the rebellion is easy. In order to be loyal, they can only drink poisoned wine and die in grievance.

A glass of poisoned wine saved the short life of the famous soldier, and also played an elegy for the dying Daqin Empire.

After Montaigne's death, Zhao Gao applauded. He immediately set out to eliminate dissidents, uprooted the pillars entrusted by Qin Shihuang to support the Daqin Empire, and personally pushed the Daqin Empire to the abyss of extinction.

At this time, the Qin dynasty, except Jin Yu, was defeated, and there was an empty shelf that was superficial. As long as someone pushes it gently, it will collapse.

In the first year after Meng Tian's death, that is, in 209 BC, the once prosperous border became desolate again.

Xiongnu took advantage of the chaos to occupy the Hetao Plain, quickly expanded its strength, unified the northern grassland in one fell swoop, and once again became the biggest enemy of the Central Plains Dynasty.

In 206 BC, Liu Bang led the troops into Hanzhong, and Zi Ying, the king of Qin, surrendered out of the city, and the Qin Dynasty perished. The Daqin Empire, which was once a big country in all directions, withered like a epiphyllum and never returned to its former scenery.

Later generations have different opinions about Meng Tian. Some people praised him for being brave and good at fighting, hitting the Huns hard and throwing his weight around in all directions; Some people criticized him for building the Great Wall in Wan Li, which caused people to suffer and complain.

However, for himself and the Qin Dynasty, what he did was commendable. To be a minister is to be loyal, to do one's duty for the country, not to waste this life, to die with a clear conscience and honor.
