Outside the city, the coalition army camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, at this moment, all the generals are discussing the tactics of further defeating Chu.

In addition to Qingji, Wu Zixu, Sun Wu, Fan Li, Bo Biao and other monarchs and ministers of Wu, such as Bai Gongsheng, Xu Junying, Zhang Yu, Zhong Wujun, Cai Houshen and other monarchs or ministers of various countries are among them.

or express their opinions, or sit on the side and listen.

"Tang Jun arrives—"

At this moment, with a vigorous announcement, a middle-aged man wearing gorgeous clothes, a long crown, and armor entered the Chinese army's tent step by step.

He is the Tang Chenggong in history - Ji Cheng.

As an important member of the "Hanyang Zhuji", Tang and many princely states with the surname Ji monitored the princes with different surnames in the south and defended the southern land for Zhou Tianzi.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, King Zhao had several expeditions to the south, and Tang became one of the important transit stations and material export places on the way of the Zhou king's march.

Since entering the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, with the rise of the Chu State and the weakening of the Sui State, a great power on the Han River, the power of the "Hanyang Zhuji" has been declining.

In order to isolate the princes surnamed Ji in the Han River region, the state of Chu suppressed it by means of marriage, inducement, and intimidation, and quickly moved north by force.

By the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, the state of Chu had controlled the entire Han River region.

At that time, Guan Ding's father of the state of Yan was defeated and became a prisoner of King Wu of Chu, and King Wu of Chu did not dislike him and let him be the commander of the state of Chu, so he defeated the state of Zhou and the state of Tate, and surrendered to the state of Sui and Tang.

And it was at that time that the Tang State began to submit to the Chu State.

During the struggle for hegemony between Jin and Chu, the Tang State also participated in the Battle of Yi, an important battle in the Spring and Autumn Period.

In 597 BC, Tang Huihou sent troops to follow the Chu general Pan Dang to fight against the Jin army, but this time due to the good command of the Jin generals and soldiers, the Chu-Tang coalition army did not take advantage.

Until now, in order to fight for control of the Jianghuai River Basin, the Wu-Chu hegemony kicked off, and the Tang State was able to once again appear on the stage of history.

Just like in history, Tang Jun Ji Cheng came to Chu with two horseless horses, ready to be dedicated to Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu.

The BMW is a rare BMW special product of the Tang State, after the Chu State ordered Yin Nangwa to hear about it, he came to the door to ask for it, Tang Chenggong did not give it, and the Nangwa took the opportunity to make a statement to the King of Chu, framing the Tang State for rebellion, and the King of Chu detained Tang Chenggong and was imprisoned for three years.

Three years later, the Tang people bribed the tile, and Tang Chenggong was able to release and return to China.

"King Wu! The widow has seen King Wu! ”

After entering the big tent of the Chinese army, Ji Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Qingji, who was sitting in the handsome seat.

"Hahahaha, Tang Jun, don't be polite! Come, take your seats! ”

For Ji Cheng, Qingji was also very polite, immediately stood up, and sat down with Ji Cheng's arm like a friend who had not seen him for many years.

This made Ji Cheng immediately flattered, after all, the Tang State was now a vassal state of the Wu State.

In other words, Ji Cheng is Qingji's little brother!

In the face of the boss Qingji exalting himself like this, how could Ji Cheng not feel guilty?

"Thank you, King Wu!"

After Ji Cheng sat down, Qingji asked with a smile: "Tang Jun, can you go smoothly this way?" ”

It's no wonder that Qingji would ask such a question.

Tang is the country of Chu, from the Tang capital to Baiju, there are many cities of Chu such as Li, Zhiyuan, Sui, etc., hundreds of miles.

Therefore, Ji Cheng's trip is also extremely difficult.

This time, if the coalition army led by Qingji could not defeat the Chu State, the Tang State would inevitably be in danger of losing the country.

Historically, in 506 BC, the three kingdoms of Wu, Cai, and Tang formed an alliance to attack the state of Chu.

The coalition army was stationed on the edge of the Han River to confront the Chu army, and the Chu general Nangwa was eager to seek merit and the light enemy crossed the Han River and took the initiative to fight, but the result was a great defeat, the Chu army was scattered, and Nangwa fled to Zheng State.

After Wu Chu fought a decisive battle in Baiju, after five major battles, the Wu army won consecutive battles, until Yingdu, the king of Chu Zhao (Xiong Zhen) fled in panic, and the Chu people collapsed without a fight.

Tang Cheng Gong Ji Cheng finally borrowed the hand of King Wu to avenge the three-year imprisonment of Chu, but this also brought disaster to Tang, a year later, Chu borrowed Qin's military assistance to repel the Wu army, and the national strength was quickly restored.

After King Zhao of Chu returned to Yingdu, the first major event was to crusade against Tang and Cai, Cai was spared because of his proximity to Wu, and Tang was not so lucky, and was destroyed by Chu in retaliation, and Tang was over.

Qingji naturally can't be as mean and unkind as King Wu Lu in history, and he completely ignores others when he uses them.

After all, in this era, although etiquette collapses, the most basic righteousness cannot be missing.

Tang is a vassal state of Wu and the younger brother of Wu, how can he ignore it?

Even if the Tang State is destroyed by other countries in the future, the Wu State will have to find ways to help the Tang State recover!

This is a matter of face, a matter of national dignity, and there is no room for loss.

Under the rule of Qingji, Wu Guoneng has the strong help of Cai, Zhong Wu, Xu and other countries, which is nothing more than Qingji's consistent style, that is, he can uphold justice for them without losing the style of the overlord.

As in the last battle of Huaishui, after Qingji led his army to capture the cities and lands of Chu in the Central Plains, he was equally divided between Cai, Xu and Zhongwu, who followed him.

At this point, I would like to ask the whole world, what country's monarch can do it?

Don't ask Qingji if he can look down on the two jujubes, the most important thing is an attitude!

This shows that Qingji, as the boss, and Wu, as the suzerain, are worthy of being followed by many vassal states.

"King Wu, the widow has come all the way, unimpeded."

Ji Cheng replied: "The Chu people have concentrated their forces in Yingdu, and now the defense of all parts of the Chu State is useless, and our coalition forces can all fight down, and even the three passes of the Great Tunnel, Zhiyuan, and Hades have not been garrisoned by the Chu State. ”

Hearing this, the generals present were very surprised.

You must know that the three passes of the Great Tunnel, Zhiyuan, and Hades are the three important passes in the northern part of the Chu State, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and are specially used to defend against invasions from northern countries.

It stands to reason that the three passes of the Great Tunnel, Zhiyuan, and Hades should be stationed with some soldiers and horses all year round, but unfortunately Shen Zhuliang seems to want to make a desperate bet and have to fight to the death with the coalition forces in Yingdu.

Speaking of the place of Baiju, Qingji can't help but think of the famous "Battle of Baiju" in history.

It was a long-range offensive battle in which the 30,000 Wu army led by Wu Wang Lu penetrated deep into the state of Chu, defeated the 200,000 main force of the Chu army at Baiju, and then occupied the Chu capital.

In the war, the Wu army was flexible and mobile, and won the battle by means of roundabout attack, retreating and exhausting the enemy, seeking opportunities for decisive battles, and far-reaching pursuits.

However, the person who really came up with this deployment for Wu Jun was not He Lu, but Sun Wu.

The Battle of Baiju defeated the Chu army of 200,000 with 30,000 men, which became a classic battle in history in which fewer won more.

Just this battle is enough for Sun Wu to be sung by future generations and become a well-deserved "soldier saint"!

If you want to talk about blitzkrieg, Sun Wucai should be the same existence as the originator!
