South Korea had advanced weapons, but why was it unified by Qin?

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a vast history book, the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, South Korea ranks in the middle. Although it is a small country in the Central Plains, South Korea’s territory mainly includes today’s southwestern Shanxi and northern Henan. If South Korea does not give full play to its advantages, it will not When he becomes strong, he always wants to use the power of others to make a profit, and eventually destroy the country. But little Korea once led an era.

What are the advantages of South Korea? In terms of weapons, crossbow! During the Warring States Period, South Korea was the first country to use iron tools in its military. Other countries still used bronze wares, which increased the individual combat capabilities of Korean soldiers and thus increased South Korea's own national strength. Throughout the early Warring States period, Koreans were quite wealthy. The God of War Bai Qi once said, "Strong bows and powerful crossbows all come from Korea, and Korea is the most important sword in the world." The best weapons at that time were in South Korea and were made by Koreans. South Korea's iron-making technology was the most advanced at the time. And its crossbow manufacturing technology was at the pinnacle of its time. Some materials show that the maximum range of the Korean crossbow reaches 600 steps, which is about more than 500 meters, far exceeding the Qin crossbow and the later Han crossbow. As for the accuracy of the Korean army's strong crossbows, there is a description in historical records that "the ones who are far away cover their chests, and those who are close are far away from their hearts." That is to say, when the enemy is far away, the Korean crossbows usually hit the opponent's chest directly, while those who are close can directly hit the opponent's chest. Hit the heart. He had such a good weapon, but he was the first to be destroyed by Qin?

In the middle and late Warring States period, South Korea first gave the Shangdang area to the Zhao State, because the Zhao State was very powerful under the leadership of King Wuling of Zhao at that time. It tried to use the "Hu Fu Cavalry and Shooting" to strengthen the Zhao Army against the Qin Army, but it triggered a large-scale war in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The biggest Changping battle. All 450,000 Zhao troops were wiped out. He was tricked and killed by Bai Qi. This battle laid the foundation for Qin to dominate the world. South Korea is also silent. In the late Warring States period, South Korea sent the famous water conservancy engineer Zheng Guo to the Qin Dynasty to dig the Zheng Guo Canal for the Qin people. He used the power of millions of people to "tire Qin" and wanted Qin to come and harm the people and waste money. Qin saw through South Korea's trick, but still Open the Zhengguo Canal. As a result, the excavation of Zhengguo Canal brought huge benefits to Qin. Another smart guy in South Korea went bankrupt and was the first to be eliminated by Qin. Take a look, gentlemen, only when you are strong can you have the confidence. Always trying to rely on others to achieve your own goals is not a long-term solution after all. What do you think?
