In the face of the ferocious attack of the Wu army and the robbery of the Qin army, the Wei state was soon destroyed after the Qi state. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After the fall of the Wei State, his younger brother Wei Guo also fell one after another.

Several vassal states fell one after another, which shocked the princes and kings, and sighed that this was an eventful autumn, these three perished vassal states were all related to Qin Wu, and Yan, Zhongshan, Chu, and Zheng were all allies of Wu, and Zhao felt that he couldn't hold it anymore and had to send an alliance request to Qin.

Qin also wanted to stabilize the current situation, so he agreed to Zhao's invitation and formed an alliance together, and Qin Wu also stopped the pursuit of victory and began to digest the results of the capture of Wei and Wei.

At this point, there are now only seven of the ten major vassal states in the Zhou Dynasty, and five of them are still allies.

Peace was temporary, and Qin Mugong also realized that the overall situation was wrong, and began to actively carry out public relations activities, wanting to dig out a few vassal states from the Wuguo Alliance and sign an alliance with Qin.

The first target of the Qin State was the Chu State. The state of Chu fought with Qin Wu before, with heavy losses, and many famous generals such as Xiang Yu and Xiang Yan were all dug up by Qin Wu, and the two countries can be said to have a lot of gaps.

However, the attitude of King Chu Zhuang obviously made Qin Mugong feel that he had made a mistake.

The reason why the state of Chu was an enemy of Qin Wu before was because the interests of the two sides were contrary to each other, and the king of Chu Zhuang also suffered a lot at the hands of Qin Wu and realized the strength of the Wu army.

Now there is such a ship with a good wind, but instead of sitting, he has turned his back on his faith and run to another boat against the wind. King Chuzhuang is not so stupid.

The state of Chu, which was most likely to withdraw from the alliance of the martial states, all rejected the invitation of the state of Qin, let alone the other vassal states.

The short-lived peace lasted only a month, and the war resumed, and this time it was Zhongshan who was the first to raise up the battle and launched an attack on Zhao.

Qin Wu then responded to the invitation of King Heng of Zhongshan and went into battle together. At the beginning of the battle, Zhao had Zhao Hao, Lian Po, Li Mu, Lin Xiangru and other famous generals with both wisdom and bravery, the battle was not going well, halfway, Qin Wu suspended the offensive, and used the plan to say that the king of Zhao Wuling reused Zhao Sheng, the son of the famous general Zhao Hao.

In history, it was precisely because of the short-sightedness of Zhao Sheng, the king of Xinling, that the Battle of Changping began. It was also because of Zhao Kuo's frivolous words that he went to war and talked about the war on paper, which resulted in 400,000 Zhao soldiers being killed by Bai Qikeng.

Qin Wu copied everything in the Battle of Changping, after Zhao Sheng and Zhao Kuo took charge of the troops, Qin Wu first pretended to attack with all his strength, and then was defeated by the other side, losing tens of thousands of militiamen disguised as regular troops.

Zhao Sheng and Zhao Kuo were still jealous of the famous martial army of the Zhou Dynasty at first, but they didn't expect that after such a fight, although they had a certain vigilance in their hearts, but with the repeated defeats of the martial army, few victories, after a period of time, Zhao Sheng and Zhao Kuo finally gave birth to the heart of the enemy.

Under Qin Wu's tactics of luring the enemy again, Zhao Sheng and Zhao Kuo led 100,000 Zhao troops to pursue the victory, but they were ambushed by Qin Wu and Zhongshan Hengwang, and the 100,000 Zhao army was annihilated, while the combined forces of Wu and Zhongshan suffered few losses.

Seeing that there was a bargain, the state of Chu, in the name of the allies, also launched an army of 100,000 and launched an attack on the state of Zhao.

After defeating the 100,000 Zhao army and capturing Zhao Sheng and Zhao Kuo alive, Qin Wu took advantage of the victory to pursue and led 200,000 Wu troops, together with the 200,000 troops of Zhongshan and the 100,000 troops of Chu, to launch a fierce offensive against the remaining 300,000 Zhao troops.

Defending for a long time will be lost, facing the ferocious attack of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, in the end, Lian Po, Zhao Hao, Li Mu and other famous generals of Zhao are invincible with two fists, and the fortified city they defend is still beaten down by Qin Wu and others one by one.

In just one month, the state of Zhao perished.

After the fall of the Zhao State, the Chu State, the Wu State, and the Zhongshan State were all allocated large tracts of land, and Qin Wu led the army back to China and began to hibernate again, digesting the spoils of this battle.

A month later, the total strength of the Wu Kingdom had expanded to 600,000. Leaving 300,000 defenders, Qin Wu raised 300,000 troops, contacted Yan, Zhongshan, Chu, and Zheng, a total of five countries alliance, and once again formed an anti-Qin alliance, a total of one million troops, launched a fierce attack on Qin.

The Qin State has been recuperating for this period of time, making up for the wounds suffered by the last anti-Qin alliance war organized with the Qi State.

Although the anti-Qin alliance this time has fewer vassal states and the army is only one million, the quality and cohesion of this million allied troops are not the same as the last anti-Qin alliance army.

And the last war between the anti-Qin alliance and the Qin State, as well as the key figure of Qin Wu, helped Qin Guoce to oppose the Yan State and the Zhongshan State, thus easily winning the battle. But this time, Qin no longer had any allies.

Different strengths, different processes, and naturally different results.

Qin State is like a cloud, the advisers are like rain, the people in the country are fierce, everyone can be a soldier, and in the face of the attack of the anti-Qin alliance's one million army, Qin showed stubborn resistance. However, the two fists were invincible to the four hands, and the master was killed by the fists, and under the joint attack of the five [***] teams and famous generals, the stubborn resistance of the Qin State was only a return to the light, and after only two months, the resistance of the Qin State collapsed.

Following the states of Qi, Wei, and Zhao, the state of Qin also fell.

In the end, the five countries of the Alliance, in the following time, dissolved the Covenant on different grounds and then fought with each other.

Qin Wu's Wu State, because it was too strong, was besieged by Chu State, Zheng State, and Zhongshan State at the beginning, and Yan State firmly stood on Qin Wu's side because of Qin Wu's revenge last time.

After that, the battle fell into persistence, Qin Wu spent a lot of money to buy Sima Xi, the annihilator next to King Heng of Zhongshan, and framed the virtuous people of Zhongshan Kingdom, and then Qin Wu waited for the opportunity to buy it, and finally made Wuqiu Jiu and other famous generals who were regarded as the mainstay of Zhongshan Kingdom rebel, and Qin Wu defeated Zhongshan Kingdom.

The Zhongshan Kingdom was destroyed, and the Chu State also lost Xiang Yu, Xiang Yan, Xiang Liang and other famous generals of the Xiang family, in the face of the wolf-like Wu army and Yan army, after resisting for a while, it was helplessly destroyed by Qin Wu, and the vast territory occupied by the king of Chu Zhuang in a few months was all included in the Wu country.

Yan State is located in the northeast of the Zhou Dynasty, before the destruction of Zhao, Wei, Qin, did not get much benefit, this time to destroy the Zhongshan State, but also the Wu State occupied the most cities, and the destruction of the Chu State, Yan State because of the distance, and the strength has been far inferior to the Wu Army, the benefits are relatively small.

Seeing that there were only two vassal states left in the Zhou Dynasty, Yan and Wu, although Yan had S-level famous general Le Yi, but the tiger could not resist the siege of the wolves, King Yan did not want to fight again, and under the persuasion of Qin Wu, he finally chose to surrender and took the initiative to sacrifice the land of Yan.

At this point, Qin and Wu unified the Warring States.
