As the first unified dynasty in the feudal dynasty, the greatest significance of the Qin Dynasty is that it laid the core territory and unified concept of the later dynasties. The reason why Qin Shi Huang, as the first emperor of the ages, was able to unify the Eight Wastes, in addition to his own great talent, the most important thing was that a large number of top warriors at that time gathered under his court.

These people can recruit good warriors and bravery, and it can be said that they have made great contributions to the annihilation of the Six Kingdoms by Qin Shi Huang and the world. What is strange is that in the short period of fifteen years from the establishment of the Great Qin Empire to the rise of Xiang Yu and the collapse of the Qin State, in addition to the famous general Zhang Handan, who was still struggling to support, the rest of the powerful warriors of the past had disappeared. And Qin Shi Huang, as one of the few emperors in history who did not liquidate his heroes, his former subordinates did not die because of his persecution, but when the Great Qin Empire was in trouble, where did they hide? Can't bear to watch the collapse of the country and mountains that you used to work hard with one knife and one shot?
The famous generals of the Great Qin Empire
During the reign of Qin Shi Huang, it can be said that the stars gathered like tigers, among which Meng Tian, Wang Qi, Li Xin and others were the most outstanding, and any one of them had the ability to destroy the country.
First of all, let's talk about the famous Wang Qi, this person is talented and intelligent and loves the military, and he was full of Taoluo at a young age, so he served qin shi huang's side very early, and in the process of Qin shi huang annihilating the six kingdoms, Wang Qi alone led the Qin army to attack three countries, which also made him the four famous generals of the warring states in the history books, together with Bai Qi, Lian Po, and Li Mu.
And Meng Tian, who came from a famous family, his popularity is relatively high. This person was loyal and pure and could fight good battles, and made countless contributions to the strategy of Qin Shi Huang to annihilate the Six Kingdoms. After the establishment of the Great Qin Empire, he began to lead a large army to attack the Xiongnu in the north, and once beat the Xiongnu to the wind and did not dare to go near the border pass. Subsequently, Meng Tian developed the northwest and Ningxia, and after recovering Henan, he also supervised the construction of the Great Wall, which is called a miracle of China, and the Kyushu Straight Road connecting the countries of the Qin State, and it can be said unceremoniously that if Meng Tian and Gongzi Fusu had not been murdered, Meng Tian's status in the history books would probably have been even higher.

Let's talk about Yang Duanhe, who is relatively unfamiliar to everyone, although his reputation in his life is not obvious and not well known to the public, but in fact, he is full of merit and reputation, and has cleared many obstacles for the Qin State. Especially in the late Warring States period, the situation was complicated, and the Wei and Zhao countries had strong terrain and strong terrain, but Yang Duanhe led the Qin army to always come out on top and win with an overwhelming advantage, which shows the strength of this person. The history books say that Yang Duanhe was undefeated in his lifetime, which was rare in that era when the stars would be gathered.
However, although this person was excellent in military talent, he was slightly lacking in handling people's affairs, and according to the history books, this person was grumpy and repeatedly clashed with the first emperor, which may also be why he did not have much ink in the history books.
Like Yang Duanhe, although this person is not well known to the public, this person is also an unusually brave and good warrior, and he is also a good hand at governing the locality. In 20 and 30 BC, Nei Shi Teng was ordered by the King of Qin to send an army to Korea, and all the way to the high and strong momentum of the bamboo, it did not take long to attack Korea and capture Han An, the king of Han. Later, he was responsible for governing the administrative affairs of Xianyang, with considerable political achievements and good reputation, and finally grew old in office, this person belonged to one of the typical examples of capable wen and martial arts among the top warlords of the Qin State.

For Li Xin, a general, everyone may be more familiar with the fact that when he and Wang Zhai competed for the opportunity to attack and destroy the Chu State, he boasted that Haikou said that it was possible to overthrow the Chu State with an army of 200,000 troops, and the result was defeat and face-beating. In fact, the real reason for Li Xin's failure was that Chang Pingjun, a former Chu nobleman of the State of Qin, suddenly led an army to rebel and fought back and forth with the Chu general Xiang Yan, which defeated Li Xin's army.
As a well-known general of the Qin State, Li Xin was brave and good at using troops, defeated the Yan and Qi armies several times, and finally captured these two countries, and was one of the generals that Qin Shi Huang was very fond of and valued. During the Battle of Qin and Chu, li xin and Meng Tian's two armies fought steadily and steadily, defeating the Chu army several times, if it were not for Qin Changpingjun's sudden attack, forcing Li Xin's army to turn back to the defense and disrupt the rhythm, whether Xiang Yan could defeat Li Xin's army was still unknown.
Other famous Qin generals such as Wang Ben, Wang Li, Meng Wu, Meng Yi, Xin Sheng, Huan Gong, Ren Huo, Tu Sui, and Zhao Tuo, among others.

Among these people, Wang Li, Wang Ben and Wang Qi were a family, Meng Wu, Meng Yi and Meng Tian were also a big son, and among the remaining generals, Huan Yi died in battle, Ren Huan died of illness in Nanling, Tu Sui was killed by an arrow during the Southern Expedition to Baiyue, and Zhao Tuo, who led the Qin army alone, chose to stand on his own after the chaos in the world. And Xin Sheng was a general at the same time as Wang Qi, quite meritorious and prestigious.
Now, let's do the math, when the Great Qin Empire was about to fall, where did these generals who could fight good wars go.
Dust to dust
According to historical records, those who can clearly die are Wang Qi and Wang Ben's father and son, the general Li Xin, and Nei Shi Teng, who grew old in office. Several generals of the Meng family were murdered and killed, plus those who died in battle and defected, but only Xin Sheng and Yang Duan and these two generals were not recorded but were not found.

According to the previous records, Xin Sheng and Yang Duanhe and the two generals were accustomed to battlefield battles and had meritorious achievements, while Yang Duanhe was grumpy and Xin Sheng was relatively calm. Combined with the time when the two were active and the reputation of Qin Shi Huang as a hero, it is likely that the two will also reach the age of old age and go to bed.
History was rushed and ruthless, and by the time Liu Bangxiangyu rose, among the glorious Qin generals of the past, only Wang Li, a young generation of generals in the Qin Shi Huang period, and Zhang Handan, a famous general of the Qin State who later rose.
But what is even more ruthless is that as the last pillar of the Great Qin Empire, Wang Li and Zhang Handan, who have the fighting spirit and determination to turn the tide, have encountered Xiang Yu, the king of Chu, who has met once in thousands of years. In the end, Wang was defeated and captured, and Zhang Handan was eventually defeated by Xiang Yu and surrendered to Xiang Yu. At this point, there was no savior in the world of the Great Qin Empire that could be taken.
When we ridiculed Zhang Handan as the last famous general at the end of Qin, we also felt sympathy and sadness for him, if it were not for the misdeeds of Zhao Gao Huhai and others, forcing the death of Fu Su and MengTian generals, the Lingnan army would not have seen the situation wrong and stood on its own, plus Zhang Handan, Wang Li and other generals, the Jiangshan of the Great Qin Empire would not have died in fifteen years.

When Wang Li was defeated, Zhang Handan also completely gave up resistance and turned to Xiang Yu after repeated defeats, and he looked at the abandoned Qin Palace in front of him and did not know what to think.
