Wu Qi
Wuqi was born in Shandong Province. At that time, his motherland was Wei state. Wu Qi is a man with a strong sense of utility. Because of his strong sense of utility, he used all the money in his family to seek an official. Unfortunately, there was no place for him in the Wei state. Not only did he not succeed in seeking an official, but he completely destroyed Nuo Da's family business. So the neighbors did not laugh at him. Wu Qi, who was wearing the "black sheep" hat, did not bear the humiliation of his crotch like Han Xin of later generations. Instead, he took his hand when it was time to do it. He killed more than 30 people who laughed at him with a knife. After returning home, he said to his mother, "if Wu Qi can't be a prime minister, he will never go back to defend the country." Then he escaped from the Wei state.
Wu Qi is a major murderer, with more than 30 lives. If we want to put it now, we have to be sentenced to "shot and executed immediately". But in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, people's lives were like weeds. Besides, Wu Qi fled the motherland, and there was no government department to catch him. Where did Wu Qi go? He went to the state of Lu. Take now for example, not far away, still in Shandong Province. But the nationality is different. The state of Lu is the hometown of Confucius sage. Wuqi is in the state of Lu. He worships Zeng Shen, the son of Zeng Shen, a disciple of Confucius. Zeng Shen has three sons: Zeng yuan, Zeng Shen and Zeng Hua. Wu Qi's master is the second. Zeng Shen is a student of Zuo Qiuming and Zuo Qiuming is the author of Zuo Zhuan. Therefore, Wu Qi must be very proficient in Zuo Zhuan. There is even a saying that this Zuo Zhuan was actually written by Wu Qi.
Wu Qi and Zeng Shen studied Confucianism. His mother was left unattended and died. Wu Qi, who was burdened with human life, felt that he had not made contributions to his career and had no face to see his father, so he could not go home to mourn. But Zeng Shen is a Confucian heritage, the most important is filial piety, no matter what your reasons. So he decided to expel Wu Qi, not with Wu Qi back this unfilial name. Wu Qi had no choice but to join a famous division and study the art of war.
There is no textual research on who Wu Qi's art of war teacher is. It is said that it is Guiguzi. Guiguzi is a legendary immortal. He has five hundred disciples in his life. Although it is a little less than 3000 disciples of Confucius, there are more famous disciples than Confucius. In a word, after Wu Qi graduated, he was very powerful. At this time, the monarch of the state of Lu was Ji Xian, the Duke of Lu Mu. Ji Xian was a famous monarch. He recruited talents and brought Confucius' grandsons Zisi and Mozi to the state of Lu to accept apprentices, which created a strong academic atmosphere. But such a place of culture was born in the Warring States period, when Lu's neighboring state Qi was in power, and Lu Ji, the Duke of Qi Xuan, was in power. Few people may know about Lu Ji, but when it comes to the story of "making up for the number", no one knows. Lu Ji is the monarch who likes to make up numbers. In addition, Lu Ji has two famous concubines, one is Zhong Wuyan, the other is Xia Yingchun. Zhong Wuyan is extremely ugly and talented, and Xia Yingchun is extremely beautiful and incompetent. So King Xuan of Qi went to Zhong Wuyan for help when he had something to do. When it was finished, he went to Xia Yingchun for fun and left Zhong Wuyan aside. This gave birth to a saying: something Zhong Wuyan, nothing Xia Yingchun.
It was Lu Ji, the Xuangong of Qi, who had the idea of opening up his territory at this time, and it was Lu who invaded. In order to resist the invasion of Qi, Ji Xian, Duke of Lu Mu, intends to use Wu Qi as his general, but he doubts that Wu Qi's wife is from Qi. If Wu Qi does something to "sell Lu for glory" for his wife's motherland, that's great. It's a tough time for others, but in Wu Qi's opinion, it's nothing. In ancient times, women had no social status, unlike today's equality. Wu Qi killed his wife and brought his head to see Ji Xian. This surprised Lu Mugong, who was moved by him and appointed Wu Qi as general. This is the first time that Wu Qi has stepped onto the military stage. In order to step onto this stage, he has paid the price of blood. It was his wife who held the flag for his success.
He has lost all his property and become a poor man. He has killed more than 30 villagers who ridicule him and become a murderer. He has become an unfilial son with the bad reputation of his mother's death. It's no wonder that he has a bad reputation of killing his wife and general. For Wu Qi, for the sake of fame, the gods block and kill the gods, and the Buddhas block and kill the Buddhas. No one can stop him. According to the Confucianists, he has become the first "villain" in the world. His inhuman and heinous behavior is less than that of the former and the latter. If used on the battlefield, his iron fist and black heart are enough to frighten any opponent.
Wu Qi ran the army. It's really two things. Although he is indifferent to the people who ridicule him, his wife and even his mother, he is more intimate with his soldiers than his relatives. He was able to share weal and woe with the most inferior soldiers. He could wear the same clothes and eat the same food. He could sleep without a quilt. He could march without riding a horse. Even when a soldier had an abscess, he could suck it out with his mouth. So the soldiers were willing to work for him to death. As the commander of the state of Lu, Wu Qi became famous in the first World War and defeated Qi Xuangong's troops.
But after all, the state of Lu is a state of etiquette. It's always strange for Wu Qi to be a man-made general with a big stain on his life. So he finally decided to dismiss Wu Qi and played a typical game of killing a dog and killing a rabbit. Wu Qi had no choice but to leave the state of Lu and go to the state of Wei. The king of the state of Wei at this time was Marquis Weiwen. Han, Zhao and Wei were divided into Jin Dynasty. Wei Wenhou was the founding monarch of Wei state. He had been a teacher of Xia, Tian Zifang and Duan ganmu, the disciples of Confucianism. He was also the martial uncle of Wu Qi. Wei Wenhou's powerful generals and counsellors, such as Li Zhen, Zhai Huang, Le Yang, ximenbao, Zixia, Wei Cheng and Wu Qi, are full of talents. Wei was able to become the first power in the Warring States period. Its culture depended on Li Zhen and Zhai Huang, and its military depended on Wu Qi and Le Yang. In particular, when Wu Qi was appointed as the chief General of the state of Wei and the governor of Xihe, he fought 76 wars with the armies of the vassals of various countries, won 64 times, and the rest were neck and neck. Wu Qi repeatedly broke through the Qin Dynasty, and his most brilliant achievement was to use 50000 Wei soldiers to break through 500000 Qin soldiers. He really achieved the goal of one to ten, breaking through five cities of the Qin army, forcing the state of Qin to retreat to Luoshui and build fortifications along the river.
Wu Qi has served Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou for more than 20 years. In the state of Wei, he has the opportunity to worship Confucius' son Zixia as a teacher, learn Confucianism and law again, and improve his accomplishments. However, there is no banquet that will never end. Wu Qi's talent is once again envied by Wei Xianggong and uncle Cuo. He repeatedly slanders Wu Qi in front of Wei Wuhou, and uses cunning to provoke the relationship between Wei Wuhou and Wu Qi, which eventually makes Wei Wuhou no longer trust Wu Qi. Wu Qi had no choice but to leave the state of Wei and go to the state of Chu.
It's gold that glows everywhere. The state of Chu has heard the name of Wuqi. It's no different for Wuqi to cast gold. At this time, the king of Chu was Xiong Yi. Xiong doubted governing the country, and neither did he. He trusted Wu Qi very much. It has to be admitted that Wu Qi is a talented person. All his previous behaviors that are not recognized by people are just for one purpose, to get the king's trust and meet the bole of life. Wu Zhi met two real Bole in his life, one was Wei Wenhou, and the other was this Chu mourning King Xiong Yi. After the Chu mourning king appointed Wu Qi to be the order Yin, Wu Qi started the most famous "Wu Qi reform" in history in order to enrich the country and strengthen the army of Chu. In history, Shang Yang's reform was very famous. In fact, Wu Qi's reform was earlier than Shang Yang's reform, which made Chu rich and powerful at least in time and to the greatest extent. After the Wuqi political reform, the state of Chu was completely new. The prosperous and powerful state of Chu defeated the powerful state of Qin to the west, conquered Baiyue to the south, and defeated the powerful state of Wei to the north. Just as Wuqi was winning day by day, the king of Chu died suddenly. Wu Qi, who lost the support of the king of Chu, was strongly opposed by Qu Yijiu and Yang Chengjun of the state of Chu, and was shot to death by random arrows.
Wu Qi started his career as a black sheep, murderer and unfilial disciple. He became an official of the Three Kingdoms, strengthened the Three Kingdoms, conquered cities and lands with martial arts, and strengthened the country with political reform. As the saying goes, there is no gold, no man is perfect, and no amount of stains can erase the brilliance of Wu Qi. For thousands of years, Wu Qi's thought has been used for reference by later generations of strategists and politicians, and is immortal.
