The state of Chu began its own innovation in a big way.

Throughout the history of the Chu State, there were numerous changes to the problems of the nobility, but few of these innovations were successful.

At first, it was probably the king of Chu Zhuang, the king of Chu Zhuang first got rid of the big nobles in the country, the Ruo Ao family, and supported the county system, opened up the way, and implemented the rule of law, and judged criminals according to the law, this series of reforms was successful, so that the state of Chu quickly became strong and became the overlord, after him, the state of Chu ordered Yin Zimu to carry out another reform, and his reform goals were placed on the land and military.

He rectified the field system, comprehensively investigated and controlled all land, implemented the state land grant system, and extended military service to other people, so that the Chu State could recruit a large number of soldiers to fight for him.

Wu Qi saw that the strength of the domestic aristocracy was definitely not conducive to the country, so he abolished the hereditary track system, which was aimed at the old nobles of the Chu State, Wu Qi deprived the old nobles of the Chu State of their fiefs, and canceled the hereditary track system of the old nobles, implemented the system of direct appointment of local officials by the king, and counted the domestic finances, returned the financial power to the central government, and strengthened the power of the King of Chu, etc.

Wu Qi's change was indeed beneficial to the state of Chu, and it also made the state of Chu strong in a short period of time, but unfortunately, after the king of Chu mourning died of illness, the old nobles launched a rebellion and surrounded the palace, and the nobles injured Wu Qi with arrows, Wu Qi pulled out the arrow and fled to the place where the king of Chu mourned the mortuary, inserted the arrow into the body of the king of Chu mourning, and shouted: "The ministers rebelled and plotted to kill my king." ”

The nobles shot Wu Qi and the body of King Chu at the same time. The law of the state of Chu stipulates that harming the body of the king is a felony and will be exterminated by the three clans. After the king of Chu Su succeeded to the throne, he ordered Yin to execute all the people who shot Wu Qi and shot the body of the king of Chu at the same time, and more than 70 people were implicated and exterminated, and Wu Qi's body was also sentenced to the punishment of car splitting and dismemberment, and his reform in the state of Chu failed.

And in the end, it was naturally Qu Ping's reform, Qu Ping's reform was not as radical as Wu Qi's, but it could be regarded as harming the interests of the nobles in the country, so he was framed, he was exiled all his life, unable to go home, constantly exiled, and expelled.... His change was interrupted shortly after it was carried out.

Chun Shenjun believes that now is the best time for Chu to change the law. Because the king of Chu is strong and will support himself wholeheartedly, in addition, the aristocratic forces within the Chu State are already extremely weak, this is because the external defeat of the Chu State and the rebellion that has just been quelled internally have caused the power of the nobles to suffer a great blow, and they have no way to resist the king of Chu at all, nor can they destroy the change.

As a result, Chun Shenjun began the radical process of reform, he followed the example of Qin, set up a complete set of title system, and abolished the original inheritance system, and nobles without military merits would not be able to inherit the title left by their father. The nobles no longer had private soldiers, and all the soldiers were to be owned by the state. The nobles no longer have the right to judge, no longer the right to appoint in their domains, no longer the right to collect taxes, and so on.

He basically wants to wipe out the nobles in Chu.

Chun Shenjun has long understood that it is not easy to make these guys bow their heads, so General Jingyang has been training the army and is ready to counter the rebellion, sure enough, when the royal order of reform was transmitted to various places, suddenly, the nobles once again raised troops to resist, they had no way to accept such a reform, Chun Shenjun was going to take away all their power, if they chose to bow their heads, even if they ushered in the opportunity in the future, they would not have the strength to resist again.

If even the private soldiers are going to be taken away, what will they use to resist?!?

The state of Chu was suddenly full of wolves, there were rebels everywhere, the nobles formed a coalition to crusade against Chunshenjun, after the nobles united together, the strength was still very strong, and the money, land, and soldiers they had far exceeded the army of the king of Chu, fortunately, they did not have a general like Jingyang, General Jingyang has experienced countless vicious battles, and his ability may not be as good as Bai Qi, Lian Po These people, but to deal with these nobles, it is not too difficult.

He is also the one who dares to change the law of Chun Shenjun, of course Jingyang is also a big nobleman, but he is different from other nobles, he really cares about Chu State, not a person who cares about personal interests, he only likes to drink on weekdays, neither to occupy land, nor to think about collecting wealth, he just wants to drink, at this point, he is the same as Xinlingjun, but Jingyang likes to drink alone, which is a little different from Xinlingjun.

The armies of the two sides were in the battle of Zhongli, General Jingyang ordered the soldiers to change into the clothes of private soldiers, disguised as routed soldiers, suddenly attacked, broke the defense line of the nobles in one fell swoop, and then the whole army pressed in, he rode in a chariot, killed Xiong Jun, the commander of the aristocratic coalition, and routed the armies of these nobles.

However, Qin did not let go of such a good opportunity... In August of that year, the Qin State took Meng Fu as the general and sent troops from Nanjun, Nanyang and other places to crusade against the Chu State. At this time, the army of Chu was concentrated in the southeast to quell the rebellion, and there was no strength to deal with the Qin state, so Chun Shenjun quickly completed the appointment, and he replaced Jingyang with Xiang Yan, who led the partial division to attack these nobles, and Jingyang came north with the rest of the soldiers to resist the Qin state.

At the same time, Chun Shenjun sent an envoy to ask Wei and Zhao to help Chu.

When the envoys of Chu arrived in Zhao, the king of Zhao immediately summoned his ministers to discuss the matter.

Pang Xuan, Lian Po, Zhao Hui, Kong Bin, Lejian, Tian Yue sat beside King Zhao respectively, compared to the talents of the past, now there are only these people left around King Zhao, which makes King Zhao very painful, for King Zhao, the talents around him have left one after another, probably the most painful thing for him, he looked at these people around him, and asked seriously: "The King of Chu sent a messenger to ask the widow for help, what should the widow do?" ”

Pang Xuan thought for a moment before he spoke: "We should send troops to help the Chu State... The Qin State is strong, no country can fight alone, only by uniting can it resist its attack, now the Chu State is under attack, if the Zhao State does not help the Chu State, in the future, the Qin State will attack the Zhao State, and the Chu State will not come to help the Zhao State again. King Zhao listened to his words, nodded seriously, and then looked at Lian Po.

"King Qin died, Bai Qi, Fan Ju is not there... This is a good opportunity to crusade against the Qin State, and I think this is the best time to regain the Shangdang. ”

Since they all said so, King Zhao no longer hesitated, he said: "Please Xin Pingjun lead 60,000 soldiers to send troops to the party and recapture the party for Zhao!" Lian Po immediately received the order, only Kong Bin, who looked a little hesitant, he looked at everyone, and said helplessly: "Shangjun, Zhao State built a canal and attacked Yan State, the people are tired, and there is not enough food in the country, it is really not a good time to send troops." ”

"Although the kings, generals, and ministers of the Qin State have all died of illness, the reason why the Qin State is strong is because of his system, not because of these few people."

"Now the Qin people are mourning their king, at this time, if they encounter the attack of the Zhao State, they will definitely work together and fight to the death with all their might, but I am afraid that Xinping Jun will not be able to take down the Shangdang..."

Lian Po looked at him a little angrily, and said proudly: "I can make a vow!" ”

Kong Bin hurriedly said: "No need, I didn't mean that, General Lian Po is the general of Zhao State, please don't say any more oaths...", Lian Po suddenly became more anxious, is this iron-hearted look down on me? Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, King Zhao hurriedly stopped them. In the end, King Zhao still insisted on his opinion and sent troops to the party, Kong Bin shook his head helplessly, and did not persuade again.

And when he left the palace, Lian Po snorted heavily, and then he bumped into Kong Bin and walked out.

Kong Bin followed Pang Gong in front, and the two walked slowly towards the gate, Kong Bin asked again: "Pang Gong, do you know the situation in China... Why are you proposing to send troops? ”

Pang Gong raised his head, sighed wistfully, and said, "Whether or not the enemy can be defeated, Zhao Guo has to fight... You once said that in less than twenty years, the world will be occupied by the Qin State, and I think the same as you, and it is for this reason that the Zhao State needs to send troops..."

Kong Bin looked at him for a moment, then just shook his head.

Surprisingly, Wei did not send troops, and the king of Wei did not want to continue to help Chu, because helping Chu before made Wei suffer a great loss, which made Wei have his own ideas, let Qin and Chu kill each other, and Wei took the opportunity to develop his own national strength. Therefore, in the end, Qin faced only the armies of Chu and Zhao, and Qin had already prepared to resist the armies of Zhao and Wei.

And now, those who resisted Wei can withdraw and concentrate on fighting Zhao.

As a result, the war of the Three Kingdoms broke out again, and Korea stood on the side of Qin, and he sent 10,000 soldiers to help Qin to attack Zhao. Wang Ji followed Bai Qi for a long time and was also a famous general in Qin, and the people who assisted him included Meng Wu, Yang Duanhe, Wang Jian and other young people. Lian Po did not choose to send troops from Danshui this time, he chose to send troops from Yuci and went south to seize the party.

And Lian Po didn't expect that Wang Di left soldiers in each city to defend Lian Po's attack, but he was preparing to cross Danshui and attack Handan directly. This move made Lian Po a little unbearable, but fortunately, even if Lian Po made an adjustment and made a detour from Maling, if Wang Di insisted on attacking Handan, Lian Po would be able to cut off his back road, just like the last battle with Zheng Anping, and eat the Qin State's troops in one bite.

The two sides began a roundabout war along the Shangdang, constant movement, constant fighting.

In the state of Chu, Jingyang led the army to guard Juyang, because of the lack of troops in the state of Chu, General Meng Yu made a division of troops to attack the surrounding counties, and crossed the strategy of Juyang to go deep into the Chu realm, the Chu army was forced to fight on multiple fronts, Jingyang concentrated his forces to swallow the main force of Qin, but he always couldn't catch up with the main force of Qin, but let Qin capture a lot of cities, Jingyang brought an army of only 50,000, while Qin used an army of 150,000, which put Jingyang into a great disadvantage.

After General Meng Wei divided his troops, a partial division under the command of Qiang attacked Shouchun, which successfully cut off Jingyang's food supply and besieged him, fortunately, Jingyang also defeated a partial division led by Zhang Tang and successfully broke through, while the aristocratic coalition on the other side was trying to get in touch with Qin and wanted to assist Qin's forces to support the new king.

The aristocratic alliance army had more than 100,000 people, but Xiang Yan, who was in charge of attacking them, had less than 30,000.

Xiang Yan decided to take advantage of the biggest shortcomings of the coalition army, one by one, because the coalition army is formed by a combination of multiple nobles, there is no cooperation with each other, and they cannot work together, the commander has just died, the new commander has no way to mobilize the whole army, Xiang Yan led the whole army to storm the left wing of the coalition army, and after forcing the coalition army to make adjustments, immediately attacked the Chinese army, taking advantage of the chaotic situation of the coalition army, once again won the commander's general flag, and inspired the whole army.

The coalition of more than 100,000 people was defeated and retreated by Xiang Yan in this way, and it was impossible to get in touch with the Qin State.

If the only victory achieved by the coalition was that they successfully captured the family left in the fief by Chun Shenjun, and killed Chun Shenjun's family in a very cruel way, only one of Chun Shenjun's brothers with two children survived, which made Chun Shenjun almost collapse, and the king of Chu was furious, captured the family members of these nobles left in the capital, and killed them one by one to avenge Chun Shenjun.

Such behavior not only did not help, but further intensified the contradictions.

In October of that year, Xiang Yan successfully defeated the main force of the coalition army in the Huaishui area, and the rest of the army fled to various places, Xiang Yan continued to pursue, and it was also at this time that Jingyang fell into a desperate situation and could no longer resist the powerful offensive of the Qin State, and in Shangdang, Lian Po did not get any benefits in the hands of the Qin people, Wang Di marched cautiously, and did not contact Lian Po at all, that is, constantly harassed, constantly detoured, and Lian Po did not bring much food, in the entanglement, soon fell into the predicament of no food.

There are many defenders in the city of Shangdang, the city is strong, and Lian Po has no way to break it, and the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to Zhao State.

The Qin state lost their generals, they lost their ministers, and even the king left.

But once again, they proved that they were strong not only because of these people. The fruits left by these three people allowed the Qin State to maintain its own strength, and the Chu State could no longer pay attention to the endless rebellions in the country, so it hurriedly dispatched Xiang Yan to help Jingyang, and at the same time sent envoys to negotiate peace with the Qin State. Chun Shenjun really didn't expect that the Qin State would still be able to make a move against the Chu State without ascending the throne.

And they didn't expect that the Qin State, which had lost several important figures one after another, could still have such combat effectiveness, and the Chu State and the Zhao State together were not their opponents.

The reform of the state of Chu was once again declared a failure.
