Section 585 Qin Army

The army is tired, the strength is exhausted, and the countries in the distant land are on guard, I'm afraid it won't work! Zheng Guo must know that the actions of our army are thankless, and the soldiers must be resistant. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info and marching a thousand miles, who wouldn't know? Qin Mugong did not accept his opinion. Summoned Yu Ming, Xi Qi, and Bai Yi, and asked them to go out to the east gate to join the army. Uncle Jian cried and sent them off, saying, "Mencius, I saw the army go out but I can't see it coming back!"

Qin Mugong sent someone to say to him: What do you know? If you die at the age of sixty or seventy, the trees on your grave are already hugged. Uncle Jian's son was in the army, and Uncle Jian cried to see him off, saying: The people of the Jin Kingdom must resist our army in the Yan (yáo) mountain, which has two mountain tombs. Its southern mausoleum is the tomb of Xia Hougao; Its northern tomb is the place where King Wen took refuge from the wind and rain. Thou shalt die between two hills, and I will go there and collect thy bones. The Qin army marched eastward.

(33) Thirty-three years of the reign of the Emperor

In the spring of the 33rd year, the Qin army passed through the north gate of the Chengzhou Wangcheng, and on the chariot, except for the emperor, the left and right sides of the chariot took off their helmets and got off the car to salute, and then jumped on the chariot with 300 chariot soldiers. Wang Sunman was still young, saw it, and said to King Xiang of Zhou: The Qin army is not dignified and has no top hats, and it will definitely fail. If you are not dignified, you lack strategy, and if you are not polite, you are not serious. If you enter a dangerous situation and don't care, and you can't make up your mind, can you not lose the battle?

When the Qin army arrived at the slippery state of Zhengguo, the merchant Xiangao was ready to go to Chengzhou to do business, and when he met the Qin army, he first gave the Qin army four cooked cowhides as a gift, and then sent twelve oxen to reward the army, saying: The widow has heard that you are preparing to march through Yiyi, and I would like to reward your retinue. The city is poor, so for your retinue to stay here, prepare a day's supply when you stay, and prepare a night's defense when you leave. At the same time, Xiangao sent a transmission car to report to Zheng Guo urgently. Zheng Mugong sent people to visit the house of Qizi and the others, and found that they had already dressed up, sharpened their weapons, and fed their horses. Emperor Wuzi thanked them and said, "The doctors have lived here for a long time, and the dried meat, grain, and livestock in the province have been exhausted."

In order for the doctors to leave, Zheng Guo's Yuan Garden, just like Qin Guo's Gu Garden, the doctors hunt elk by themselves, so that we can have free time, how about it? So Qizi fled to the state of Qi, and Fengsun and Yang Sun fled to the state of Song. Meng Ming said: Zheng Guo is prepared, and there can be no hope. I can't win the attack on Zheng Guo, and there is no backup to surround it, so I'd better go back. When the country is destroyed, go back.

The national Zhuangzi of the Qi State came to ask questions, from the suburbs to greet him all the way to the gift send-off, the etiquette was thoughtful, and the appearance was good. Zang Wenzhong said to the Duke of Xu: The prince of the country is in power, and the country of Qi is still polite, so the king should go to the court! The subordinates heard that obedience to the state of courtesy is the guarantee of the state.

The ancestor of the Jin State said: Qin Jun disobeyed Uncle Jian's words, because of greed to work for the people, this is the opportunity given to us by God. What is given cannot be lost, and the enemy cannot be let go. Let the enemy go, and woe will be; If it goes against the will of heaven, it is unlucky. Be sure to attack the Qin army. Luan Zhi said: The army that attacked Qin without repaying its favor is there still a dead monarch in his mind? Xian Zhen said: We have a funeral Qin State is not sad, but attacks our country with the same surname, they are rude, what kind of favor do you talk about? I have heard: one day to let the enemy go, this is the scourge of generations. For the sake of future generations, this can be said to the dead king! So he issued an order to raise troops and immediately mobilized Jiang Rong's army. Jin Xianggong dyed the mourning clothes black, Liang Hong drove the chariot, and Laiju was the right of the car.

In the summer, on April 13, he defeated the Qin army at the Yan (yáo) mountain, and captured three commanders, Baili Meng Mingshi, Xi Qishu, and Bai Yibing, and returned. So he wore black mourning clothes to bury Duke Wen of Jin. From then on, the Jin Kingdom began to use black mourning clothes.

Wen Ying asked for the release of the three commanders and returned to China, saying: They provoke the kings of our two countries, if the widow king catches them, and they can't be satisfied with eating their flesh, why bother the king to crusade? How about letting them return to Qin to be killed, so that the widow can be happy? Jin Xianggong agreed. When asked about the prisoners of the Qin State, Jin Xianggong said: "Mother made a request on their behalf, and I will let them go." Xian Zhen said angrily: The warriors spent their strength to catch them on the battlefield, and the women let them go in the country with a few words, ruining the results of the war and growing the enemy's ambition, and the Jin Kingdom was about to perish!

Ignoring Xianggong in front of him, he spat on the ground. Jin Xianggong sent Yang Virgin Father to chase after the three people who were let go, and chased them to the Yellow River, where they were already on the boat. The young father untied the horse on the left side of the car and gave it to them in the name of Jin Xianggong. Meng Ming kowtowed and said, "Thanks to the king's favor, there is no need for the imprisoned ministers to sacrifice the drums, let us return to the Qin kingdom to be killed, if the widow kills us, our reputation will be immortal after death, and if we are pardoned according to the king's favor, we will thank the king for his gift after three years."

Qin Mugong, who lived in the suburbs in plain clothes, cried to the soldiers who were released and returned, and said: I didn't listen to Uncle Jian's words, and I made several of you insulted, which is my sin. It's also my fault for not withdrawing Meng Ming's garrison, what are the three of you guilty of? And I can't cover up the great virtue with a one-time mistake.

The Di people invaded the Qi State, because the Jin State had a funeral, and they could not take into account sending troops to support the Qi State. , Duke Xi attacked the state of Yi and captured 訾 (zī) Lou in retaliation for the battle of Shengcheng. There was no fortification in the country, and in the autumn, Xiangzhong attacked the state again.
