Zhang Yi pretended to cede 600 miles of land to the state of Chu, deceived the king of Chu, and made the king of Chu and even the entire state of Chu gloomy! The king of Chu was very angry, and the consequences were serious!

The state of Chu soon recalled the envoys of the state of Chu to the state of Qin and sent envoys to officially declare war on the state of Qin! And the land of Hanzhong and Nanyang, which are at the junction of Chu and Qin, began to be quickly armed under the will of the king of Chu!

The land of Hanzhong, because of the inconvenience of roads, has always been not valued by the Chu State, and it has not been able to mobilize many soldiers and horses. However, the land of Nanyang of Chu State is the place where the monarchs of Chu State focused on management, and the status of this place in the entire Chu State is even higher than that of Huaishui, and it is only in the land of Yan Ying, the birthplace of Chu State!

Under the orders of the king of Chu, the nobles of Hanzhong and Nanyang began to respond to the call of the king of Chu and sent elite soldiers to participate in the war against the Qin state. In just a few months, the state of Chu mobilized more than 250,000 troops!

If Chu wants to attack Qin, the best route is to go up along the Danshui, attack Wuguan, and then attack Shangzhou and Lantian, and then you can go straight to the heart of Qin's Guan! Along the way, the king of Chu appointed the general Qu Qi as the commander of the Western Route Army, leading an army of 150,000 to the north!

Considering that the current state of Qin had concluded a continuous alliance with Han and Wei, if the state of Chu attacked from the southeast of the state of Qin alone, it would expose its army to the eyes of Korea. In order to prevent Korea from attacking the flank of the Chu army from the north, the king of Chu appointed Jing Cui as the commander of the Northern Route Army, leading an army of 100,000 to attack the Korean Yongshi from Wancheng.

When the army of Chu began to move, Dai Yan attached great importance to it. However, just when he was waiting for the Chu army to suffer defeat and be able to reap the benefits of Chu, Qi sent an envoy Zhang Chou to Song and asked Song to send troops to assist Qi in its crusade against Wei!

Regarding the movements of Qi State, Dai Yan was extremely puzzled! In his opinion, now that the state of Chu has severed diplomatic relations with the state of Qi, the state of Qi should wish that the state of Chu would suffer defeat, why should he attack the state of Wei to help the state of Chu relieve the pressure?

In fact, when the king of Chu was angry and directly attacked the Qin state, the people of insight in the Qi state saw the conspiracy of the Qin state. Since the Qin State dared to provoke the Chu State, it was naturally fully prepared for war! With a prepared army and an unprepared army, the Qin State has a great chance of winning!

However, if the Qin State really defeated the Chu State, then it would be too unfavorable for the Qi State! Fang is under today, only the Chu State and the Qi State can compete with the Qin State, if the Chu State is really defeated by the Qin State and falls, then how can a single Qi State be able to stop the Qin State?

Therefore, even if the King of Qi is extremely dissatisfied with the actions of the King of Chu and even the State of Chu, and is considering strategic interests, the State of Qi must also help the State of Chu from other aspects! Even if Qi attacks Wei and can't help Chu, then Qi will attack Wei and seize the land of Wei, and it will definitely be able to make itself stronger!

Regarding Qi Guo's order, Dai Yan was in a dilemma at once. Now, should he follow the advice of Qi and follow Qi to attack Wei, or should he abandon Qi and attack Chu directly?

If he followed the army of Qi and defeated Wei, then Song would be more and more unable to break away from the control of Qi. And if you disobey the orders of the State of Qi now, then the State of Song may face the two great powers of Chu and Qi!

He did not dare to make a decision on his own for such a difficult decision, and then he summoned the ministers for a secret consultation.

Today's Song State has been preparing for war for so long, it is impossible to stop it! And the only question at the moment is which side to go to war!

For the peasants represented by the peasant family, as long as the war can obtain the military duke, and can obtain the land, then they will support it! And for the merchant class represented by the Yang-Zhu school, as long as the war can be won and enough benefits are obtained, they will support it!

For the Mohists and the industry behind them, waging war can make the industry develop rapidly, no matter which side they go to war, they don't care!

And the biggest disagreement is on the Xiangguo Huishi, who was in charge of the power of the Song State, and the army. As the prime minister, although Hui Shi also needs to consider the interests of all strata in the entire Song Kingdom, what he considers most widely is the national interests of the Song State itself!

In Hui Shi's opinion, the current Song State does not have the strength to directly tear his face with the Qi State! Although Song Guo made a stumbling block for Qi State in Yan State, Song State couldn't pull Qi State off the horse with just this small move!

And the more important thing is that although the Chu State is attacking Korea and the Qin State at the same time, with its own super strength, it has not used all its strength! The Chu army in the entire Huainan land was not mobilized. Not only that, but the State of Chu even deployed heavy troops at the junction with the State of Song in the land of Huainan to defend against the State of Song and the State of Qi!

At such a time, rashly attacking the Chu State will definitely anger the Chu State! If the State of Chu suddenly reached a tacit agreement with the State of Qi at this time, and attacked the State of Song at the same time, then the State of Song would become extremely dangerous!

And what really moved Dai Yan and made him make up his mind was Le Yi's analysis!

As an important boss in the military, Le Yi also believes that if the Song State wants to send troops, it must be able to reap the greatest benefits for the Song State! In the current situation that the Chu State is extremely vigilant against the Song State, rashly attacking the Chu State will not be able to obtain too many results! Instead of this, then the Song State might as well send a partial division to follow the Qi army to attack Wei. When the attention of Qi and Chu is completely taken away from Song Guo, Song Guo will suddenly attack and strike a thunderous blow, and he will definitely be able to achieve all the success!

Dai Yan agreed with Hui Shi and Le Yi's opinion: now is not the time to openly confront Qi and Chu! So Dai Yan transferred the 50,000 troops that had been transferred back from Yan State before, and still handed them over to Xiao Xiang's command, so that he could lead the army and follow the Qi army to crusade against Wei!

So, when the Chu army attacked Qin and Han in two ways, the combined forces of Qi and Song marched from the east to attack Wei to cook dates!

Unlike when he attacked Yan State before, Dai Yan hoped that the Song army would boost morale and let Qi State see the strength of Song State, this time Dai Yan issued an order to Xiao Xiang, that is, the Song army was only allowed to lose, not win!

On the eve of breaking with the Qi State, it was impossible for him to let the Qi State obtain the boiled dates of the Wei State and enhance the strength of the Qi State!

Faced with the challenge of more than 200,000 troops of the Chu State, plus the coordinated operations of the Qi and Song coalition forces on the side out of their own interests, the Qin State, as the leader of the Lianheng Alliance, quickly reacted!

Before angering the Chu State, the army of the Qin State was already in a state of imminent war! In order to deal with the Chu army, the soldiers of the Qin State divided into three ways and counterattacked!

One route was led by King Qin's brother Ying Ji, east of Hangu, arrived in Korea, and helped Han general Han Peng resist the attack of Chu general Jingcui.

On the other hand, Zhang Yi's friend Wei Zhang led the army to support Shangyu and Wuguan, and confronted the army led by the Chu general Qu Qi from the front!

And the last way, Gan Mao, a Chu man who was familiar with the geography of Chu and recommended by Zhang Yi, led a strange army, imitating the previous way of Sima Wrong to attack Shu, and attacked Hanzhong of Chu State!

In this way, although the two countries of Qi and Chu have completely broken up, because they have the same interests, a situation of Qin, Wei, and Han against the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi, and Song has still been formed.

In the east, the allied forces of Qi and Song and the army of Wei confronted the boiled dates; In the middle, the army led by the Chu general Jingcui and the Han general Han Peng confronted the Yongshi; To the west, the army led by the Chu general Qu Qi and the army led by Wei Zhang confronted Danyang.

This confrontation lasted only a few months, and was soon broken by the mobile army led by Ying Ji.

When Yingji led the army east out of Hangu, he first came to Yongshi. Under the attack of the tiger and wolf army of the Qin State, Jingcui was quickly defeated, so he withdrew his army from the Yongshi and returned the army to the Chu State.

After repelling Jing Cui's army, the army led by Ying Ji did not directly turn to the west and attack the western route army of Chu, but gave priority to his ally Wei. After a rapid march, the Qin army quickly arrived in the Wei State to cook dates, and suddenly launched a surprise attack on the Qi and Song coalition forces!

Xiao Xiang, the commander of the Song army, who had originally received Dai Yan's order and was only allowed to lose in the battle of boiled dates, was not allowed to win, as soon as he received the news of the Qin army's attack, he immediately abandoned the Qi army and led the army back to the Song Kingdom!

Fortunately, the Qi army, as a skilled fighter, has rich experience in running away, and quickly broke through from boiled dates, and most of the army withdrew to the country!

In this way, the only stalemate in the entire battlefield is the Qin army led by Wei Zhang and the Chu Western Route Army led by Qu Qi!

The speed of the Qin army's troop transfer far exceeded Chu State's expectations! After the Qin and Han coalition forces helped Wei defeat the Qi and Song coalition armies, the Qin army immediately abandoned the Han army and quickly retreated, but in just half a month, it was like a miracle that the army was transferred back to Korea from Wei Guopu!

In this way, Wei Zhang led the army down the Danshui, and Yingji led the army down the Xishui, and the two armies converged at the intersection of the Danshui and the Xishui, and at the same time launched an attack on the Danyang camp of the Chu army set up on the north bank of the Danshui!

In the first battle of Danyang, the Chu army was defeated! The Qin army beheaded 80,000 Chu troops, and more than 70 generals including Qu Qi, the commander of the Western Route Army of the Chu State, and the general Feng Hou Chou, were captured!

In the battle of Danyang, the Chu State lost so completely, which not only shocked the Chu State, but also directly shook the world!
