The Song State and the Chu State joined forces to destroy the Yue State, the southern power of the world, in less than half a year, and this news made all the countries in the Central Plains look sideways. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, when the time came to October of this year, another even more shocking news came from the west: Qin Wei fought in Yin and Jin, and the Qin army defeated the Wei army under the leadership of Gongsun Yan, captured the Wei veteran Long Jia, and beheaded 80,000!

Of the 80,000 Wei troops led by Long Jia, almost half of them were Wei warriors, but they basically did not run away in the Battle of Hexi. Wei Wushu is a standing army trained by Wu Qi, and all the countries in the Central Plains have seen the power of Wei Wushu, but now the army of Qin State has made tens of thousands of Wei Wushu unable to even run, which makes everyone in the world extremely surprised.

You must know that the State of Chu defeated the State of Qi in the Battle of Xuzhou and the State of Yue in the Battle of Fuli, and it cannot achieve the same record as the State of Qin killing 80,000 people at once! At this time, even if they fail on the battlefield, most of the soldiers are actually able to escape. In fact, not many of the fighters of Qi were killed on the battlefield in Xuzhou, and most of them actually ran back to China.

However, the Qin army was able to kill the strongest army in the world, Wei Wushu, and couldn't run back, how strong was the Qin army? All the countries of the Central Plains have such doubts in their hearts.

After acquiring the Yin and Jin dynasties, the Qin state renamed it Ning Qin, and then continued its attack on the Hexi region of the Wei state. In November, Qin captured Hangu Pass; In the spring of the following year, Qin captured Anyi, the old capital of Wei. After that, Qin led his army to continue north and attack Puyang. In March of the following year, the Qin state captured Puyang.

After the capture of Puyang, the pace of Qin's attack still did not stop! It did not even let go of the land of Zhao, and attacked north one after another, and then it captured Lin and Lishi of Zhao. In the continuous offensive, the Qin state completely drove the forces of the Three Jin Dynasty out of the area east of Zhongtiao Mountain.

As a result, the Qin State completed in the hands of the new monarch Yingsi, the great cause that Qin Mugong, the once most powerful monarch of the Qin State, had not completed: completely occupy the Cuihan Heavenly Danger! Hangu Pass is in the hands of the Qin State, and it is simply a nightmare for the Eastern Nations! To the east of the Qin state, the Yellow River came from the upper reaches and took the Wei water to the east. On both sides of the big river starting from here, nature shows its miraculous work: on the north and south banks, Huashan, Kunshan and Zhongtiao Mountain stand between the rivers, and on both sides are high cases and deep valleys, which are steep and abnormal; The passage between Guanzhong and the Central Plains, passing through the mountains at the northern foot of Huashan and Kunshan Mountain, stretching for hundreds of miles, is the danger of "the car is not on the track"! And Hangu Pass stands according to the danger and controls things.

In the southeast of the Qin State, there is a military pass that the Qin State has occupied for hundreds of years. In this southeast direction, there is the Qinling Mountains as a natural barrier for the Qin State, and the Qin State occupies Wuguan, which can go directly to the Nanyang Basin from the southeast.

There are many people in the world who have studied the topography, and everyone can see that the current Qin State occupies Hangu Pass and Wuguan in the east, and with such a steep terrain, it is like a giant eagle rising into the sky, looking down on the entire Central Plains. With such a steep terrain, the Qin State can attack and retreat!

Stimulated by such news, the situation between the countries of the world immediately changed dramatically. Originally, Zhao and Wei and Qi fought to the death, and the two sides fought endlessly. After the three Jin were threatened by the Qin state, the Zhao and Wei states immediately called off their troops and made peace. Immediately, under the mediation of Wei, Zhao and Qi also made peace. Zhao returned Gao Tang to Qi, and Qi ceded a large area of Jixi to Zhao.

With the retreat of Wei, Zhao, and Qi, Qin stopped continuing its offensive.

At this time, in the southern state of Chu, there was also great turmoil.

When the king of Chu led the army back to the state of Chu, with the unparalleled power of winning Qi and destroying Yue, he was warmly welcomed by the Chu people in Yingdu! However, when the king of Chu returned to his harem, he found that his home had changed dramatically.

During this expedition, he also realized that the Song State was a second-rate power that could not be underestimated. Therefore, for the marriage between Chu and Song, the king of Chu was very concerned. And when he recruited his daughter Miyue, he realized what a significant change had taken place in the harem during his expedition!

His queen actually took advantage of his absence in Yingdu to drive Miyue's mother Xiang out of the Chu Palace and let her live with a ruffian hooligan named Wei Jia! After doing such a thing, the queen also deceived the mother of Miyue, the king of Chu, who died of illness. If he hadn't learned the truth from Mi Yue's mouth, he would have been kept in the dark, which directly made the King of Chu furious. However, Nian Zai has been married to the queen for many years, and the queen's son Xiong Huai has been the crown prince of Chu for many years, and the king of Chu does not want too much turmoil in the Chu country. He could only endure this matter, and just sent someone to bring the Xiang clan back to Chu Palace.

Mi Yue soon knew the news that she was going to get married, and Xiang knew that her daughter would marry a virtuous son in the north, and her daughter was down, so the most worried thing in her heart was also forgotten. So she stole the queen's special wine utensils, called the queen to her dormitory Zhanghua Taizhong, and then quarreled with the queen of Chu, creating the appearance of breaking up with the queen. Before the king of Chu was about to come to Zhanghuatai, Xiang committed suicide by drinking poisoned wine with the queen's drinking utensils, and when the king of Chu came to Zhanghuatai, Xiang told the king of Chu that all this was the queen's conspiracy. Xiang hopes to exchange his life for the queen to wash away his former shame!

As a result, the king of Chu was furious, and he no longer tolerated the queen! The queen had no choice but to die in front of the king of Chu, hoping to keep Xiong Huai's position as the crown prince at the cost of her own suicide.

And the king of Chu was stimulated so much by his family that he suddenly had a heart attack and died all at once. Poor King Chu went on an expedition to Qiyue when he was alive, and he did not die on the battlefield, but died in his own trivial affairs.

After the death of the king of Chu, Xiong Huai, the crown prince of Chu, succeeded to the throne of Chu. When the old King of Chu was named, the ministers all thought that during the reign of the King of Chu, he was strong and resolute in power, and he was fierce in the Congo; And the army of the prince of Chu won Qi and destroyed Yue, and the barbarians subdued. This gave the king of Chu the nickname of "Wei".

After Xiong Huai ascended the throne, the state of Chu continued to take Zhaoyang as the commander and was in charge of state affairs.

In the Song Kingdom, after Dai Yan returned to China, he also soon heard the news of the boycott of the Zhao, Wei, and Qi countries. Afraid of the strength of the Qin State, these countries even had a tendency to unite together, and such a situation was not happy to be seen by the Song State and Dai Yan.

However, Dai Yan did not have the energy to deal with the relations with Zhao, Wei, and Qi for the time being, because he was under strong pressure from the merchants of the Song Kingdom.

During the invasion of the Chu State, the Song State had delivered a large amount of military rations to the Chu State, and at this time, it was time for the Chu State to repay its debts. At this time, there has been no news in Chu State, and Song Junzixi had no choice but to personally send Dai Yan to envoy Chu State to solve this matter.

In March, Dai Yan personally rushed to the capital of Yingdu in Chu State. As soon as he arrived in Yingdu, he got the news that the old King of Chu had passed away and was called the King of Wei, and now the new King of Chu had ascended the throne.

Dai Yan first went to visit Qu Yuan, and then went to visit Yin Zhaosui of Chu State. Under the recommendation of Zhao Sui, he was able to meet the current Chu State Commander Yin Zhaoyang.

Zhaoyang is a middle-aged man in his forties, and he is also willing to associate with Dai Yan, the son of Song Guoxian who even King Chuwei admires.

"Lord Ling Yin, when the King of Chu invaded Yue, he entrusted my country to buy grain. Now that the army of Chu has returned to China, dare to ask Ling Yin, I don't know when the debt owed by Chu to Song will be repaid? After talking for a long time, Dai Yan asked directly to Zhaoyang.

"Son, don't worry, my Chu State is a big country in the world, and my country will naturally repay the debt owed to the Song State. It's just that our country is now at the time of the replacement of the old and the new, and many things are scattered and unclear, and the prince only needs a little time, and after my king takes over the state affairs and sorts out the government affairs, my country will inevitably repay your country's debts in full. Zhaoyang replied with a full mouth.

After receiving such a guarantee, Dai Yan was barely relieved, and he also stayed in Chu State, waiting for the government affairs of Chu State to be sorted out.

However, he waited in Yingdu for two months, but Chu never had the intention of repaying his debts. After that, he also visited Zhaoyang many times, and Zhaoyang was full of promises about debts. But the more he got later, the more difficult it became for Dai Yan to see Zhaoyang.

One day, Dai Yan went to visit Zhaoyang again, and when he walked near Zhaoyang's mansion, he suddenly heard someone shouting for help. But I saw that it was the doorman in Zhaoyang Mansion who surrounded a poorly dressed scholar and beat him hard, and the soldier was beaten all over his body, extremely miserable, and he was about to be beaten to death.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I wonder what mistake this gentleman has made, and you want to beat him like this?" Dai Yan couldn't bear to see such a scene, so he had to ask,

After seeing Dai Yan, the doorman replied: "It turned out to be Gongziyan, and we didn't beat him for no reason." This man is a thief, and he stole a piece of jade from my master. As long as he tells him where the jade he stole is hidden, we will naturally let him go. ”

Hearing that someone was going to be killed because of a piece of jade, Dai Yan was also speechless. So he took out a piece of jade that he carried with him, handed it to the Zhaoyang doorman, and said to him: "How can a piece of jade be worth a human life?" I am willing to exchange this jade for this person's life, okay? ”

The jade in Dai Yan's hand is a piece of beautiful jade left by his father Zihan, which is the famous "jade of no greed" in the Song Kingdom, and its condition is exquisite. These doormen are naturally also knowledgeable people, and when they see someone taking jade in exchange for this person's name, they don't beat this person. They took the piece of the jade of innocence and went back to their lives.

When Dai Yan rescued the beaten man, he found that the man had passed out. When he encountered such an incident, he could not continue to visit Zhaoyang, so he had to order his entourage to take the man who had been beaten for a long time back to his residence, and ordered someone to bandage his wounds, and it took a long time for the beaten man to wake up.

When the beaten man woke up, he didn't care about the wound on his body, he just opened his mouth and asked the people around him: "Guys, do you see if my tongue is still there?"
