Le Yi led 400,000 Yan troops to fight head-on, and Qin Wu led 100,000 Wu troops to fight in places where the Qi army was weak, and achieved remarkable results in a short period of time.

When the Duke of Qi Huan escaped from the battlefield of Qin with 100,000 Qi troops and returned to the country, Le Yi finally stopped continuing to march and began to stop and recuperate, and the army was low to a limit in physical strength and spirit.

Similarly, Qin Wu also had to let the 100,000 martial army stop and recuperate.

On the way home, Qi Huan received reports from messengers one after another, and he had a full understanding of the state of Qi in the country.

The 400,000 Yan army is a revenge army, with high morale and high fighting spirit, and it is difficult for the Qi army to stop it at all.

The 100,000 warriors were a combat-savvy army of Assassins, small in number, but extremely powerful enough to make anyone who despised him pay a great price. This kind of price, Qi Huan Gong has already paid once.

Although the Yan army and the Wu army now occupy nearly half of the cities of the Qi State, the army of the Qi State is relatively intact and has not been injured, and everything is just waiting for the Duke of Qi Huan to return to reorganize the overall situation.

As a result, Duke Qi Huan made a strategy against the Yanwu and Wu armies halfway through.

First of all, the generals and strategists under their command - Tian Ji and Sun Bin, the two of them took their personal guards, secretly and quickly returned to the country, gathered the remaining cities and the army of the capital, and attacked the Wu army and the Yan army on both sides with the 100,000 Qi army under the command of the Duke of Qi Huan.

Secondly, although the anti-Qin alliance existed and had fallen apart internally, it had not been completely dissolved after all, and the Duke of Qi Huan sent invitations to Chu, Wei, Han, Song, Wei, Zheng, Lu and other countries, promising heavy benefits and inviting them to send troops to attack Yan together.

Although Wei hated Qin Wu for defeating the Wei army three times and twice, and was still wreaking havoc in the territory of Wei, Wei Wenhou was a very virtuous monarch after all.

Wei lost both wars, and its national strength and military strength have decreased a lot, so it is really time to recuperate and restore its combat strength.

Moreover, the reason why the huge anti-Qin alliance was defeated was that the Qi State took the main responsibility, and Wei Wenhou didn't go to the trouble of the Qi State at this time, so how could he send troops to stop the revenge of the Yan State?

South Korea, not to mention, the old man of the Seven Heroes, the original army of more than 200,000 people, now there are only a few tens of thousands left, maintaining domestic law and order and suppressing the bandits everywhere is a problem, how can there be extra soldiers to help Qi Huan Gong attack the Yan army and the Wu army?

Wei Guo is the younger brother of Wei Guo, needless to say, naturally he listened to the words of the big man and refused the invitation of Qi Huangong, or recuperate.

In the end, only Chu, Zheng, and Song agreed to send troops to rescue Qi.

The reason for the Chu State to send troops is very simple, Gongzi Xiong Side and Xiang Yan lost the battle, instead of returning to Chu State in embarrassment, it is better to fight again and go to Qi State to win a battle, so as to cover up the haze of defeat in the war against Qin.

And Zheng Guo is the younger brother of Chu State, Song State is the younger brother of Qi State, the eldest brother charged, and the younger brother naturally had to follow behind.

So, after Qi Huan Gong operated like this, he pulled up 150,000 reinforcements, plus the original 100,000 troops under Qi Huan Gong, a total of 250,000 people, after resting for two days and recovering a certain morale and physical strength, he began to march towards the Yan and Wu armies entrenched in Qi.

At the same time, Tian Ji and Sun Bin were also in Qi China, organized an army of 400,000, and marched to the front line to prepare for a decisive battle between the two armies of Yanwu.

"Duke Qi Huan is about to lead the army back to China, and the time has come to fight a tough battle, I don't know if you have any suggestions?"

After receiving the news that Chu, Zheng, and Lu agreed to the invitation of Duke Qi Huan and sent troops together to attack the two armies of Yan and Wu, Qin Wusheng gathered the generals and asked the generals under the court.

"My lord, only for now, our army has a total of three ways to go. The first is to leave part of the forces to contain the Qi army that is being assembled, and our side will concentrate superior forces to eliminate the 250,000 allied troops brought by Qi Huan Gong and capture Qi Huan Gong, then this battle can be won without a fight; The second is to abandon some small and medium-sized cities and counties, hold on to the big cities, and take advantage of the high walls of the big cities, which must be several times the strength of the troops to capture to fight the enemy; The third is to accept it when it is good, and after looting all the resources in the occupied cities and counties, withdraw to the Yan Kingdom, and then plan for the future. ”

Feng went out of the way.

The so-called three paths, simplified to three words, are attack, defense, and retreat, and after Feng Quji pointed out all the choices, he handed over the right to choose to Qin Wu.

"Three roads, capture the thief and capture the king first, the first way is the best policy, but this best policy is relative to the Yan State, the real beneficiary of the capture of the King of Qi is the Yan State, the benefit to us is not great, and we have to bear huge losses and risks. The second way, staying and holding on, can certainly confront the enemy, and cause relatively large, or even multiple casualties to the besieging side, but this does not mean anything to us, and we have no fixed territory, no stable source of troops, and we cannot afford any big losses at all. ”

"So, take it when you see it, notify the Yan army, loot all the resources in the occupied city and county, and then retreat. One thing to avoid is that we are looting the rich in the city, not the common people. If we don't touch the people's things, we will certainly lose a lot of benefits, but what we will gain is the hearts of the people. ”

"In addition, if the other party is kind and generous, leave him 10% to 30% of the family property, and you all know how to deal with the rich and unkind. Yusuo, although this is not Korea, and Qi is also our enemy, but the people are innocent, you, the overseer, must be equal to everyone, and play the role of the superintendent, otherwise if I find that my words have not been implemented, and if someone disobeys the yang and the yin, you, the overseer, will have to bear the same responsibility. ”

After pondering for a while, Qin Wu spoke to everyone.

"No!"

Qin Wu's reasoning was so clear, everyone naturally did not question it, and responded in unison.

Qin Wu is just a commander, and the specific matters are naturally done by his generals and strategists. Sending a messenger to inform Le Yi of the decision of the army, sending a large army to loot the money in the city, determining the list of rich households in the city, collecting information to assess the degree of good and evil of the rich households, and supervising the conscientious supervision and maintenance, everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

When Qin Wu was in South Korea, he insisted on not infringing on the interests of the people, and the military army has always adhered to this principle along the way, and has formed a habitual surname thinking, and Qin Wu also set up a supervision office for this purpose to supervise the execution of everyone, so everyone dare not violate Qin Wu's orders.

The Wu army's behavior had long been spread throughout the Zhou Dynasty, so when Qin Wu began to loot the wealth of the wealthy in the city, there was almost no resistance, but countless players and ordinary people stood up to help Qin Wu in the looting.

At the same time, Qin Wu sold the real estate and real estate that could not be taken away to some people who provided important and accurate information at a low price of one-tenth or two-tenths, as a reward for their help.

As for whether the new rulers of these cities and counties will not recognize the legal rights of these real estate and real estate after Qin Wu leaves, it is none of Qin Wu's business.

And Qin Wu left a line for the rich who were kind and generous, and he was also praised by countless people. Although most of their wealth was confiscated and their mood was very low, it was still better than those who had their homes raided and all their wealth plundered.

And because real estate and real estate are sold cheaply, Qin Wu did not loot the real estate of these people, which for the rich families who liked to buy land and buy houses in ancient China, real estate and real estate definitely accounted for the vast majority of their wealth.

Qin Wu left these things behind, but for this rich man, it didn't hurt his muscles and bones. People are more psychological, others have been copied and there is nothing left, but you still have a small amount of family wealth and an almost complete foundation left, then these people will not be sad, but glad that they have done a lot of good things, and now they are finally lucky to survive under the sword of the military army.

At the same time, the armed army adhered to the principle of not plundering the people and treating good businessmen well, and it also spread all over the world through the mouths of hundreds of people and good businessmen.

If a principle can only be adhered to for a while, others will not think much about it, and may even think that you are making a show, but if you stick to it all the time and get everyone's recognition, then it is time to harvest.

In modern language, if Wujun is regarded as a group of companies, then Qin Wu is shaping a good company brand.

Now all the people in the Zhou Dynasty called the military army as the people's armed army.

The word "people" is a term of endearment for the military army under the command of Qin Wu who does not infringe on the interests of the people, and even kills bullies and destroys merchants for the people.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat, Qin Wu adhered to his principles and did not harm the people, so he was recognized by the people.

Shifting his attention to the Yan army under the command of Le Yi, after ten days of high-load continuous fighting, more than 20 cities and nearly 100 counties were captured, and even if they were successively supplemented by some troops, the 400,000 Yan army was only 350,000 people left.

In the Qi country here, Tian Ji and Sun Bin gathered 400,000 Yan troops, and over there Qi Huan Gong came with 250,000 four-nation coalition troops, and the enemy's strength combined reached 650,000 people, and they were still flanked from front to back.

However, the purpose of the Yan army in this battle was different from that of the Wu army.

The Yan army fought for revenge, and at the same time defeated the evil neighbor, and won dignity and living space, and the Wu army fought for the reward of the troops, and won the strength to open up the territory and build the country.

Because of the different combat goals, faced with the choice of attacking, defending, and retreating, Qin Wu chose to retreat without hesitation, while Le Yi didn't consider other options at the beginning, in his heart, there were only two words: attack.

It's just that Le Yi just wanted to invite Qin Wu to take the initiative to attack together, defeat the 250,000 four-nation alliance led by Duke Qi Huan, and capture the king of Qi, when he saw the envoy sent by Qin Wu.
