Features: The basic concept of "Practical History" is to view human history as a (or countless) large case. What is the use of historical experience? Can it be used? Here, we use history as material for understanding the social context of human society, or in other words, we use history as a "medium"—through understanding the situations and solutions of historical figures, we find another intellectual pleasure. "Practical History" deliberately shapes a "path of diversity," aiming to add a familiar, lively, interesting, and useful "new historical journey." Chen Wende's "Practical History" series provides history enthusiasts with a new joy in reading history. After careful organization and reasonable interpretation, all historical figures become more realistic and humanized, and historical stories become more interesting, practical, and engaging! This book introduces the states of Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qin, covering the wars and mergers of the feudal lords, continuing a near-two-century-old era of and bloodshed in the struggle for dominance among the oligarchs; the self-strengthening reforms and the strategies of the vertical and horizontal alliances created intense competition for survival, giving rise to detailed and clever strategies and tactics.
