It is said that the Han army was divided into two routes, and Han Teng led an army of 40,000 to sweep the cities around Xianyang. And on the 10th day of February, he conquered Qianxian County. On the 11th, take the valley mouth. On the twelfth, Huxian asked for surrender.

Yang Duanhe, captain of the Han Army, led an army of 40,000 and went straight to Anping Pass. All the way to Zhouzhi, Meixian, Yuyi, Chencang, and on February 14 captured Yongcheng, the former capital of Qin, and then led the army south, 20 miles north of Anping Pass, and set up camp.

Yongcheng Ling was appointed by Yang Duanhe as a messenger to persuade surrender and issued an ultimatum to the Qin army in the pass. When they learned that Xianyang had been lost and the life and death of King Qin were unknown, the military morale of the defenders of Anping Pass was suddenly in turmoil! Now a large number of Korean troops have poured into Guanzhong, and the Qin army is under attack! If Xianyang is still there, the Qin army can still hold on. But now the brave and warlike Qin army seems to have lost its soul, how can only five or six thousand people block the north-south attack of hundreds of thousands of Korean troops.

The general of Anping Pass was very aware of the current affairs and ordered the switch to surrender, and Le Cheng led an army of 45,000 and Yang Duanhe's army of 40,000 to achieve a victory in Guanzhong!

Le Cheng adopted Han Teng's Jianyi, and after entering Guanzhong, he divided an army of 20,000 to attack Longxi County, and the remaining 20,000 followed Yang Duanhe's army back to Xianyang.

Where can the empty Guanzhong withstand the ravages of the Korean army, and the county orders of each county in Guanzhong are also elites, and they are very clear about the meaning behind the arrival of the Korean army in the city. Therefore, the Korean army encountered almost no resistance, and in just ten days after conquering Xianyang, it quickly captured half of the Guanzhong land west of Jingshui! The reason why it is said is almost because Li Yao, the county guard of Longxi County, led hundreds of soldiers to resist the Han army, but they were soon killed by the Han army!

In order to establish power, the Li family of Longxi County was exterminated! The nobles of Longxi were frightened, and on the day when hundreds of heads of the Li clan rolled into Weishui, most of the local wealthy clans sent representatives to express their goodwill to the Han army. That same evening. How many agreements were reached is unknown! The only thing that can be known is that in the next few days, most of the properties of those local tycoons who are still on the sidelines will be seized.

Luoyang, South Korea.

With the news that Han Teng's army had conquered Xianyang, the last tight string in Luoyang City was completely loosened.

Qin, Zhao, Qi, and Chu invaded Han with a million troops, but in less than half a year, a million troops died. Defeat of defeat.

Of the remaining 180,000, 50,000 of Zhao's 300,000 troops were killed in Hanoi, 60,000 in Dong County, 10,000 in Shangdang, and of the remaining 180,000, 50,000 were fearful of a Korean counterattack in Hanoi, and 130,000 returned to Handan in disgrace.

The 200,000 troops of Qi ended up even worse, 150,000 died in Dongjun for no apparent reason, and only 50,000 returned to Linzi alive in panic like lost dogs.

As for the twenty-fifth army of the state of Chu. More than 50,000 were killed on the east bank of Yingshui, and another 20,000 were lost in Jiujiang, leaving only 180,000. Of these 180,000, 100,000 troops were ordered by the king of Chu to be transferred back to Yingdu to deal with the army of Bashu, and 80,000 were defending the cities around Juyang and Shouchun, and they could no longer pose a threat to Korea. Moreover, the army of Bashu went down the river and surrounded Yingdu. In more than a dozen battles before and after, more than 30,000 Chu troops were annihilated. Therefore, the 250,000 troops who attacked Korea at the beginning were only 150,000! This does not take into account the losses of the Chu State in Huguan, Badong, and Yiling, after all, this belongs to the 250,000 troops of the Chu State!

As for Qin's 250,000 troops, 70,000 died in Hedong and 70,000 in Qixian. 30,000 people died in Lantian, and only 80,000 people were left entrenched in Hedong, which put some pressure on South Korea. But considering that Xianyang has been conquered by the Han army, the Qin State will definitely send a large army from Hedong to protect the King of Qin, so. The shape has been reversed, and the South Korean army has shifted from a defensive side to an offensive side.

In terms of strength, now the available soldiers of the entire Zhao State are only 300,000! The available soldiers of the Qi State are only 250,000! The available soldiers of the Chu State are only 200,000! As for the Qin State, now there are only 150,000 soldiers left in the whole country! It can be called the lowest of the six countries!

Because the Wei State originally existed in name only, and now, with an edict from the King of Han, the Marquis of Wei was demoted to a concubine and imprisoned in a courtyard in Luoyang City, and the Wei State completely disappeared in the long river of history. Therefore, there are only six countries left in the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, and in terms of strength alone, South Korea is undoubtedly the most powerful, followed by Zhao State, Yan State again, Qi, Chu, and Qin are at the bottom!

After the defeat of the Qi State, he sent Hou Sheng as an envoy to Luoyang to sue for peace. Hou Sheng can be regarded as able to bend and stretch, and staged a drama of guilt in front of the palace. It's a pity that South Korea didn't appreciate it, even the pawn Chen Xiao didn't see him once, and the ministers in Luoyang City also said that they couldn't get sick when they asked to see Housheng. Ten days after Hou Sheng arrived in Luoyang City, except for some small officials, he had not seen an official of more than 800 stones.

Faced with this situation, Hou Sheng seemed to be in a state of panic. He lost nearly half of the soldiers and horses of the Qi Kingdom, and even if the queen is close to herself, she can't forgive her sins! If South Korea does not send troops to conscript the Qi State, then Hou Sheng can still make meritorious contributions and stay in the Qi court. If Korea sends troops to attack the Qi State, the queen can only take the head of the victorious person to apologize to all the Qi people!

Until today, Hou Sheng couldn't wait any longer, and knelt directly at the door of Prime Minister Zhang Ping for more than ten hours, and after losing face, Zhang Ping met Hou Sheng at the behest of King Han.

As soon as Hou Sheng saw Zhang Ping, he called himself a criminal minister, saying that he was confused for a while and listened to the bewitchment of Xinling Jun, and he didn't know the height of the sky, and instigated the king of Qi to oppose Korea, and he really couldn't redeem himself. If South Korea is indignant, it is willing to die. If South Korea is willing to forgive himself magnanimously and forgive Qi, when he returns to Linzi, he will definitely take South Korea as the leader in everything, and Qi will be South Korea's most loyal ally in the future, and he will not dare to disobey South Korea's instructions in the slightest.

The reason why Hou Sheng said this is that he is really afraid! The State of Qi has now learned that Yingdu is surrounded by the Korean army, and the King of Chu has transferred the army of the Huaisi Valley back to Yingdu, while the State of Zhao does not know why he has shrunk his forces to protect Handan, and the State of Qi is really isolated! At the same time, more than 150,000 troops under the command of Li Mu and Meng Fu were gathering on the border, and there was a possibility of a long-term attack on Linzi at any time. Today's Qi State, on the one hand, gathers the troops of the whole country to concentrate in Linzi, and on the other hand, it sends itself to lobby South Korea not to attack Qi State. The queen has given herself clear instructions, as long as South Korea is willing to blame the past and let go of Qi, any conditions can be negotiated, and any conditions can be agreed!

After reprimanding Hou Sheng, Zhang Ping put forward several conditions in the unquestionable tone of the victorious country, and only after the Qi state agreed, could there be any hope of peace. If Qi hesitates, perhaps South Korea will change its mind at any time and send troops to attack Qi.

The first condition was that Qi ceded the land of Nanyang (Qi also had the land of Nanyang, in the area of today's Tai'an and Feicheng, roughly south of the Great Wall of Qi) and the land of Gulu to Korea.

The second condition is that Qi sends protons to Luoyang. Considering that Qi Guo's credibility is not very good, Tian Dan is also among the recruits.

The third condition is that Qi needs to supply thousands of good horses to South Korea every year, and there are certain requirements for the shoulder height of good horses.

Hou Sheng's heart was half cold after listening to these three conditions. First of all, although it is distressing in the eyes of Qi to cede the land of Nanyang or the land of Gulu alone, it is not unacceptable! But if the two pieces of land were ceded together, the loss of the Qi State would be too great! How can more than 600 miles of land be ceded and ceded?!

As for the second one, whether it is sending protons or sending Tiandan, it is nothing to Qi Guo! Even, after Tian Dan was sent to Luoyang, the monarchs and ministers of Qi could breathe a sigh of relief.

As for the third, although the Qi country is not very rich in good horses, it can still be gathered with only a thousand horses. The problem is that every year is offered, which is something that only the subject country does to the suzerain! If the world knows, wouldn't it mean that the State of Qi is subservient to South Korea?!

Hou Sheng was only hesitant for a moment and was looked at by Zhang Ping coldly, he just said lightly: "If the prime minister feels embarrassed, then I will play the king, and let our Korean army go and take it by ourselves!" ”

Hou Sheng wiped a cold sweat, and hurriedly said with a smile: "How dare you!" The stakes are high! The criminal minister ordered people to report to Linzi for 800 miles and handed it over to the Queen Mother for resolution! ”

At this time, a housekeeper from the Prime Minister's Mansion hurriedly walked in and whispered to Zhang Ping. Hou Sheng immediately saw Zhang Ping walk out with a happy face, and it didn't take long for him to walk back again. It's just that compared to before, his face is more calm and confident.

Just when Hou Sheng was wondering what was going on, Zhang Ping took the lead and said: "Prime Minister Hou, I just received the king's will, if your country wants to really negotiate peace, you need to add one more on the basis of the previous three conditions!" ”

Hou Sheng suddenly scolded in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "I don't know why I suddenly ......"

"Yan sent 200,000 troops to attack your country! Our South Korea has just captured Xianyang again! I don't know what the prime minister thinks this reason is not sufficient? ”

Hou Sheng's face suddenly turned white! What the?! Yan actually sent 200,000 troops to attack Qi State?! At such a time, Qi is worried about domestic and foreign troubles, how can he beat Yan Guo?! If South Korea intervenes at this time, it doesn't need 150,000, maybe a 100,000 army can fight all the way to Linzi! At that time, for Qi Guo, it will not be such a simple matter as land cession and compensation! Maybe Qi will follow in the footsteps of Wei and disappear into the long river of history!

As for South Korea's capture of Xianyang, the capital of Qin, it is even more unacceptable than Yan sending 200,000 troops to attack Qi! After all, Yan Guo has not joined this war! After the vitality of the Qi State was greatly damaged, it was also within the expectation of the Qi State that they took advantage of the fire to rob! Qi Guo was surprised, when did Qin Guo become so indiscriminate?! (To be continued......)
