Chapter 322: Qin sued for peace

A good news spread to the king of Qin, that is, when the Qin State was in the dark, Bai Qi broke into the Tang army's Hetao with 2,000 cavalry, and after a full charge, he retreated. It was a big victory that boosted the morale of the Qin army.

This so-called victory is not enough to change the strategic relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Qin State. However, Bai Qi sent the news that the Tang Dynasty was still full of troops and abundant grain and grass to the King of Qin, and Zhao Xing discovered this important signal for the first time, and the Qin people couldn't hold on.

Therefore, he immediately mobilized almost all the cavalry, and under his own leadership, launched a battle against the Qin army's Qiuyuan Baiqi army.

80,000 against 20,000 for Bai Qi is still a dignified battle to force Bai Qi, and there is no chance to take advantage of it.

This was a war that decided the international relations between the entire Tang Dynasty and the Qin State.

Zhao Xing defeated Bai Qi at all costs, making Qin misjudge, and the Tang Dynasty still had the ability to attack in an all-out way. Even if he still said anything to Bai Qi, who was a strong man in the Tang Dynasty, other officials, including King Qin, did not dare to take any more risks.

At that time, Bai Qi vomited blood, but his vomiting of blood was equal to vomiting in vain.

But before everyone could appease Bai Qi to vomit blood, Zhao Xing's iron horsemen swarmed in.

"Bai Qi is the only outstanding person who is young and promising in our Great Qin, transfer him to the rear to recuperate." After pondering for a long time, the King of Qin gave this unreasonable order.

Since he is an outstanding person, he should be sent to the front to solve the crisis of the country, but he is transferred to the rear instead, which is indeed common sense.

But the king of Qin explained to his ministers: "Great Qin cannot destroy the country for a while, and it must restore its strong victory in the future." However, a strong army must be led by excellent talents. Although Bai Qi is young, he shows the quality of an excellent general. Transferring him to the back is called being a national prince. Then he stood up, threw away his original decadence and frustration, and became high-spirited again: "Correcting Lao Qin, the country has been established for 700 years, and it has not really been invincible in a hundred battles. Failure is already commonplace for us? In the future, it will be enough to find the field again. Am I defeating this time? But as long as we have this breath in our hearts, we will definitely achieve final victory in the future. Then he said to the prime minister beside him, Merry: "The widow accepts your suggestion now?" Dedicate the land of two counties? (The county system that has been implemented in the current Qin State) to Zhou Tianzi and let him withdraw from the coalition army? Let him ask Zhao Xing and I will ally with the sun. ”

In this way, let Zhou Tianzi go from the land of six miles? It's become a land of two hundred miles? With two counties and three cities, he has been promoted to the co-lord of the world at the county guard level.

Mei Li stepped forward cautiously and asked, "What is the bottom line of our conditions with Zhao Xing?" ”

After King Qin Wu pondered, he said magnanimously: "I will give up all of Hetao and give him Hexi County?" That is, our upper county? The only requirement is that all the people of both places be relocated back to Guanzhong. Then he gritted his teeth and said: "The migratory population returns to Guanzhong, the bottom line, otherwise, Lao Qin and him will not die." ”

"Never die? I'm really scared. "Zhao Xing got this peace negotiation clause, and finally let out a long breath? This is not a backword, Zhao Xing is really afraid.

The ministers in the whole tent? also let out a long breath together. Because there is so much anger, it has become a bang? It scared everyone.

Duke Zhou came over with Zhou Tianzi's edict? Zhou Tianzi got Qin's dedication? In fact, after returning the land of the two counties, he was already satisfied with the position of the county guard, and he ordered Zhao Xing and Qin Huimeng to withdraw their troops.

When Duke Zhou saw that Zhao Xing was really going to withdraw his troops, he was still unwilling, so he cautiously asked: "Qin Yi is tired and weak, did Tang Hou really give up like this?" ”

Zhou Gong meant that let Zhao Xing, the only guy who respected Zhou Tianzi, continue to attack the Qin State, if he could be destroyed, so that Zhou Tianzi, who already had two and a half counties, would be truly safe.

As a result, Zhao Xing looked at this greedy guy and could only perfunctory him.

Now there is no real alliance with the Qin people, and you can't explain the actual situation to this old fool, and now, you must continue to show your strength to the Qin people.

"Actually, I really want to continue to attack Qin and go to Xianyang to have a look, but the Son of Heaven has a life, and the king's order cannot be violated. Besides, the news of the Son of Heaven's order to withdraw troops has been sent, and the hearts of the coalition forces outside Hangu Pass have been dispersed, and the team is not easy to lead, and I am helpless. ”

Duke Zhou returned to the Qin people and conveyed the news that Zhao Xing was unwilling to withdraw his troops but accepted the conditions of the Qin people, and the King of Qin was still unwilling to ask casually: "Shangqing is okay to eat and drink in Tang Ying." ”

Zhou Gong glanced at the food at King Qin's banquet with disdain, and said with a full aftertaste: "Zhao Xing is extravagant, he relies on his back to the grassland, so that the soldiers eat beef and mutton as the main food, wheat and millet rice, just a side meal." Tsk, extravagant, even lowly sergeants can eat meat, and they don't follow the rules of Zhou etiquette. ”

The king of Qin and the ministers sat stunned for a long time, and in the end, the king of Qin took out the north of the ancient Great Wall and snatched it to the Wei State, and gave it to Zhao Xing's Hexi County, and the current Qin's Shangjun map and seal letter, and handed it to the envoy of the alliance with Zhao Xing: "You replace the widow and settle with the Tang Hou Alliance, and the widow is ready to go south to Bashu to quell the rebellion of Bashu." Then he saluted Zhou Gong with infinite melancholy and returned home with the army.

Zhao Xing also sent Zhou Tong of the Ministry of Officials and Zhao Huang of the Ministry of Rites to represent himself to the envoys of the Qin army in Sundi, and under the witness of Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, Lu, Ying and Song, under the witness of the princes and the supervision and witness of Zhou Tianzi's Shangqing, he took the geographical atlas and returned to his own capital with the army.

As a result, a decisive battle between Zhao Xing and Qin initiated by Qin wanted to unite with Wei to capture Yiyang in Korea, and Chu wanted to weaken Qin, ended in Zhao Xing's complete victory.

What kind of logic is this, this is the perfect interpretation of the whole body.

In this battle, Korea achieved the goal of holding Yiyang, Wei achieved the goal of continuing to enjoy peace, Chu achieved the goal of weakening and strengthening Qin and continuing to dominate Hedong, and Zhou Tianzi achieved the goal of correcting his name, and at the same time, he also obtained bribes from two counties of Qin, and this world co-lord became a great benefit of a county guard.

The emerging Datang occupied the entire Hetao, as well as Hexi, which Zhao Xing should have obtained a long time ago, and expanded the agricultural area of Datang by three times, laying the foundation for becoming a reasonably balanced and powerful country. But the loss, that is, a miserable one. Tang, in five years, will not have the ability to expand outward.

Qiang Qin, lost the above three places, the strongest soldiers in the country were close to 200,000, completely wounded their vitality, and within ten years, they could no longer attack any princes.

So, on the surface, the two most powerful countries have become the two weakest princes, and they can only squat on the ground and watch the other princes compete for hegemony.

However, everyone knew that everyone had benefited from this time, except for the weakening of Qin and Tang. But once these two countries have finished breathing and jump again, there will be no one in the world who will be invincible.

In order to have the ability to resist when these two tigers and wolves jumped up, everyone no longer had internal friction and melee, the Zhou Dynasty won the world, and it was rare that there was a few years of peace, and everyone was immersed in development and prepared for the beginning of the next world war.
