Zhoukou, located in the Central Plains. As an agrarian nation, the ancient Chinese naturally hoped to own the land of the Central Plains with fertile land and convenient transportation, so since ancient times, there has been a saying that "those who win the Central Plains will win the world".
Based on this military common sense, Zhoukou, located in the Central Plains, has naturally become a place of four battles in which the heroes chase deer and the sword and light sword shadow. Of course, if an ancient land lacks smoke and smoke, the battle of Jinge Iron Horse cannot be said to have a complete history of the land, and without the iron-blooded tenderness of war, there can be no romantic past.
As a Xiangcheng person, let's first talk about the historical record of "Lu Shi extinguishing Xiang".
Although Xiangcheng is a princely state with the surname Ji, the princely states have the rank of the princes and viscounts, and Xiang is a viscount. The status of nature is not high, and the land is not large. It is also in the place where the Central Plains stand side by side, and naturally there is no room for expansion, and it has always been relatively weak.
The Spring and Autumn Zuo Clan Biography and the Seventeenth Year of the Duke of Qi records that "(Xia) Shi extinguished The Item. The HuaiZhihui, the affairs of the princes of the public, are not returned, but take items. The Qi people thought that they were pleased, but stopped the public."
Zuo Shi's Spring and Autumn Pity Ink Rujin Explained to Lu Shi xiang in just a few sentences, which was too simple. We can only look for some clues from ancient books to restore the correspondingly rich history of Lu Shi's extinction.
In the early days, the territory of the State of Qi and the State of Lu was not the same
Later, during the Qi Henggong period, the State of Qi became bigger, and the State of Qi was pushed by the princes of the Central Plains as an ally, and the State of Lu became the younger brother of Qi, of course, there will be unconvinced factors. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes competed for hegemony, and the younger brothers had to support the expenses of the allied war (how similar to the current NATO), and the allies protected the safety of the younger brother. Because of the frequent wars and huge expenditures, it aroused strong dissatisfaction in the Lu state. Later, Guan Zhong died, and Qi Henggong became seriously ill, so he entrusted the State of Lu, whose strength was second only to his own, to replace the princes of the Hui, and the State of Lu took advantage of this opportunity to destroy the weak Xiang State (originally born of the same root, and it was too anxious to fry each other) - perhaps it was not dealing with the Xiang State Jun? But it is certain to destroy Xiang Guo to replenish its own losses (there have been no brothers in front of interests since ancient times).
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the war was still very respectful of etiquette (soldiers were not tired of cheating was made by the old oils of the later period), and the destruction of the Lu state was unreasonable, violated the principles, and sent troops privately without the consent of the allies, so the State of Qi was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. He sent troops to Lu Guo and detained Lu Gong as punishment (very severe punishment, Qi Heng Gong is good to have a big brother faction), Lu Guo was frightened, and Lu Gong's wife Sheng Jiang actively engaged in personnel activities and made some relations. After Qi Henggong died of illness, the princes were busy fighting for power, and this matter naturally did not end. Xiang was also incorporated into the map of the State of Lu, all the way to Chu queuing Lu...
Later, the descendants of Xiang Guo took "Xiang" as their surname, which was also the original source of the Xiang family.
Of course, there are also later generations who think that Lu is the shandong territory, xiang is Henan, and it is useless to want this "enclave" thousands of miles away. In fact, the Region of the Guru State should be not far from the "Item". Later, Xiang Yu was given the title of "Duke of Lu" by King Huai of Chu (ancient feudalism was exquisite), which was also related to Xiang Zeng's belonging to Lu.
