Why was Qin able to dominate the world?

The domination of the Qin State was not accidental, but an inevitable trend of historical development.

Since King Zhou Ping gave Qin's ancestors as princes, the Qin State has been constantly fighting for survival and development. By the time of Qin Mugong, he destroyed the dog Rong, which was a great threat to the Central Plains Dynasty, expanded the country for thousands of miles, and then dominated Xirong. By this time, the state of Qin had completely become a military power.

In the establishment and development of the Qin State, the will to fight of the old relatives was sufficient! The fighting spirit is strong! This is a quality that the Qin people have had since ancient times. After Qin Xiao's Gongshang Martingale changed the law, he implemented a set of effective policies to enrich the country and strengthen the army!

Among them, the very famous policies such as "waste well fields and open up Qianmo" and "reward military farming" have been very successful! Shang Ying has been in power for more than 20 years, and he has exerted integrity education to the extreme! Word!

Every time he comes back from a war, as long as he has achieved military merit according to the new policy, his family has received a knighthood! And substantial benefits were obtained!

Therefore, it suddenly stimulated the will of the vast number of Qin people to fight! Since then, sweeping the six countries, the world will dare not obey!

I think the biggest reason why the Qin Dynasty was able to unify the six countries was that it occupied the right time, place and people.

Since the Qin Dynasty's Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Qin Dynasty has stood out among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States. Whether it was the emphasis on agriculture, the reward for military achievements, or the unification of monetary weights and measures, all promoted the economic development of the Qin State and the improvement of national strength.

In addition, the geographical location of the Qin State was superior, occupying fertile areas such as the Guanzhong Plain and the Hetao Plain, and the carrying capacity of the population continued to rise.

Qin was on the western edge of the Seven Kingdoms, and could avoid the other six to expand its territory to the north or west. Unlike Wei and South Korea, no matter how strong they are, they have to suffer from the enemy on their backs, and there is no room for development, which has ruined a good start.

Moreover, the Qin Dynasty occupied the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack checkpoint of Hangu Pass, and was in a dominant position in attack and defense.

In the end, Qin's luck was better. Originally, Zhao Guo's national strength was also significantly improved after King Zhao Wuling's "Hufu Cavalry Shooting". However, due to excessive recklessness and eagerness, it led to the defeat of the Battle of Changping.

Coupled with the continuous natural disasters, he completely withdrew from the competition with the Qin State.

All of this contributed to the hegemony of the Qin State.

First of all, it is the law of Shang Yang is the most suitable policy for governing the country during the Warring States Period, that is an era when there is blood must have a contention, the ancient law of the royal road and the rule of inaction can not help the country unify the world, and the barbarian Qin State is more than Xirong Yiqu to deal with, so the law of the royal road is not suitable for the Qin State, so the emergence of the law of the Shang Dynasty put forward the concept of farming and people can be exchanged for titles, which is also the first time since the Zhou Dynasty to give a large number of civilians the opportunity to compete for the title, so the Qin farmers worked hard to open up the wasteland, Although it is somewhat inhumane, it also makes the food richer and the soldiers more sacrificed.

Then, it was the efforts of the next few generations of monarchs, especially King Huiwen, whose greatest contribution was to kill Shang Ying, pacify the nobles, stabilize the situation in Great Qin but did not abolish the law of Shang Jun, so it could be passed down from generation to generation, retaining the fruits of the law, and then relying on King Zhaoxiang and Bai Qi to break Chu and break the Three Jins, in fact, at that time, the Qin State basically had the strength to unify the world.

In the end, it was also the Mandate of Heaven to Qin, after the Qin State changed the law, the Wei State suffered a slump in the Battle of Maling, and then went east, and the King of Chu Huai always did not listen to Qu Yuan's words, so that the Great Chu almost lost the country, and then the King of Zhao replaced Lian Po before the battle, Zhao Kuo lost the Battle of Changping on paper, and the Qi State almost lost the country because of the swallowing of the Song Dynasty, and several powerful countries declined for various reasons, only the Qin State has maintained a strong vitality, maybe this is "ordered by the sky to live forever".

The strength of the Qin State was not achieved overnight. He started from the time of Qin Xiaogong. experienced the period of King Qin Huiwen, Yingzheng and other kings.

The Shang Dynasty changed the law and made a significant contribution to the Qin state becoming stronger, and even to the later unification of the six kingdoms. Starting from the Shang Dynasty reform, the Qin state gradually became stronger.

Shang Ying changed the law, and in agriculture, he abandoned the well fields and encouraged farming. In terms of military and national defense, he rewarded military merits and implemented the military merit knighthood system, which developed the national defense of the Qin State and weakened the power of the old nobles of the Qin State on the one hand, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Shang Ying's reform made the Qin state among the great powers, and although the Chu state was strong at this time, the reform began relatively late. Naturally, it can't compare to the Qin State. By the time of King Qin Huiwen, although the other six countries had realized the rise of the lion of Qin, Su Qin also proposed the strategy of Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi to resist Qin.

In the later period, Lü Buwei assisted Yingzheng, and Yingzheng himself also had great talents, which finally prompted Qin to unify the six countries!

The strength of the Qin State was obtained through a long period of hard work. There are not only politicians like Shang Ying, Zhang Yi, and Lü Buwei, but also generals like Wang Jian and Bai Qi. There are also monarchs like Qin Huiwen and Wang Yingzheng. All of this has made the Qin State strong!

Qin was able to unify the world with the contributions of three statesmen:

First, Shang Ying, whose internal coup d'état law gave the Qin state an army that was thirsty for killing.

Second, Zhang Yi, his strategy of connecting and horizontally using diplomacy to divide the six countries and join forces to resist Qin.

Third, Fan Wei, his distant and close attacks weakened the Six Kingdoms and strengthened the Qin State with diplomatic division and military encroachment.

The way in which the Qin State ruled the world:

Qin's victory in the War to Unify the Six Kingdoms was due to Qin's proper use of strategy and tactics in the war. During the reign of Qin Wangzheng, the country was rich and strong, with enough manpower and material resources to fight the war, and was strategically in an offensive posture. In terms of tactics, the Qin State implemented the policy of opening the side from near to far, first weak and then strong, first destroying the neighboring weak country Han Zhao, and then breaking through, attacking Yan and destroying Wei, relieving the worries of the north.

Finally, the use of tactics to destroy the strong enemy Qi Chu on both flanks is in line with the actual situation.

The reason why Qin ruled the world was completed early:

1. Successful internal reform: Qin Xiaogong reused the Shang Dynasty reform, and although it was initially opposed by conservative forces, it finally won the support of the whole country. The back of the people's hearts determines the rise and fall of the world, which is the truth since ancient times After the death of the filial piety of the end of the Qin Guan, Shang Ying was executed by the old slave owners and nobles, but due to the complete reform of the Shang Dynasty, the new law has penetrated into all social strata, especially the emerging landlord class, which represents the mainstream of social progressive forces, wholeheartedly supports the reform of the law and tries to become strong;

2. Selection of talents: Qin attaches great importance to the appointment of talents.
