Chapter 983: Forty-two Counties of Wu Kingdom
"Sun Wuzhen is my Great Wu God of War, and the widow didn't misunderstand him." As it turned out, the slap in the face came very quickly.
After getting the good news of the battle of Qixian, Qingji praised Sun Wu, forgetting that he had reprimanded Sun Wu for using it before
When the tactics of "closing the door and beating the dog" are used. A slap in the face? If the slap in the face can make Qingji get what he wants, Qingji is willing to be slapped in the face a few more times.
Sun Wu's battle to destroy the Dynasty, so far, has annihilated no less than 200,000 Yan, Dai, and Hu allied forces, and only 20,000 people have been captured, and all of them are Yan troops.
The Wu army did not lose many soldiers and horses, and the battles before and after were about 40,000 people. However, because the Hu people burned, killed, and looted in the three counties of Taiyuan, Hengshan, and Shangdang, there were almost 50,000 dead or missing Li Shu, including the elderly, weak, women and children.
Fortunately, to this day, the land can be said to be in the bag of Wu State. Sun Wu's achievement of such a brilliant result was unexpected, and Qingji should be glad that he did not change generals on the spot a month ago because of Sun Wu's small mistake in tactics.
Otherwise, Wu might not have been able to defeat the invading Hu Lu so quickly and achieve such fruitful results.
Sun Wu chose the location of the decisive battle in the area of Jinyang and Qixian, which was correct. Qingji secretly praised in his heart, Sun Wu deserved to be historical
"Soldier Saint", sure enough, he uses soldiers like gods. At this time, Qingji sat on the throne, looked around for a week, and said slowly: "Second and third sons, the country has basically been destroyed. The widow got the news that Zhao Wuxian, who had fled back to Pingcheng, had fled to Mobei with the remnants and did not know where to go. ”
"Therefore, the meaning of the widow, the land of the old dynasty, the county of the dynasty, is the forty-second county of my Great Wu!"
"The king is wise!" Qunchen Mountain shouted. At this time, after the establishment of Dai County, Wu State already had a full forty-two counties, namely: Wu County, Huiji County, Jiujiang County, Surabaya County, Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County, Guilin County, Nan County, Nanyang County, Yuzhang County, Qianzhong County, Dian County, Jiaozhi County, Hanzhong County, Hengshan County, Wuling County, Sanchuan County, Huaishui County, Ba County, Shu County, Chang'an County, Shang County, Longxi County, Hedong County, Yingchuan County, Shangdang County, Jibei County, Qinghe County, Hengshan County, Taiyuan County, Hanoi County, Wei County, Beidi County, Dong County, Donghai County, Taishan County, Bohai County, Langya County, Dai County.
Daiguni was established on the basis of the three Daiguni counties. Zhao Wuxian divided the country of Dai into Dai County, Yunzhong County and Yanmen County, and the territory was quite vast, but compared with the counties of Wu State, it was dwarfed.
In view of this, Qingji still decided to set up only one daijun.
"Yan Hui."
"The minister is here!"
"You went to take office as the county guard. In addition, select some capable officials to serve in Daijun, and be sure to restore the livelihood of Daijun as soon as possible and mediate the relationship between various tribes. Qingji looked at Yan Hui meaningfully and said, "Yan Hui, the widow has only one requirement for you to serve as the county guard." Treat Hu people, tooth for tooth, blood for blood! ”
"If the Hu people dare to rebel, they will immediately send troops to suppress it, first cut it and then play it, and there is no need to ask the widow."
"No!" Yan Hui's face was straight, and he immediately received the order. Yan Hui is one of the ten philosophers of Confucius, the head of the seventy-two sages of Confucius, and one of the five great sages of Confucianism, which is called by later generations
"Resurrection", the ability is not bad. According to Qingji's usual practice, newly established counties generally send their sons to take office as county guards and take charge of the military and political power of a county.
But now it doesn't have to. The Hu people outside the plug were basically intimidated by Wu Jun, where did they dare to make any trouble?
Even if you want to rebel, most of them are powerless. Wu was originally stationed there with a large number of soldiers and horses.
"Literature."
"The minister is here!"
"Draw up an edict for the widow. Exempt from taxes and forced labor for two years in the three counties of Hengshan, Taiyuan and Shangdang! ”
"No!" This time, the Hu people went south, and the three counties of Hebei were deeply affected, and among the 50,000 Li Shu who died, they basically died against the Hu people.
Qingji felt a little sorry in his heart, so it was only natural that they would be exempted from two years of tax and forced labor, and the three counties of Hebei would recover as soon as possible.
"The second and third sons, Sun Wu Shangshu, after the death of the dynasty, took advantage of the momentum of the great victory, and destroyed the Yan Kingdom in one go. I don't know if the second or third son has any objections? "Kill Yan?
Faced with Qingji's inquiry, the ministers couldn't help but look at each other. Originally, in the plan of the monarchs and ministers of the Wu State, if the Yan State did not surrender with Lilly, it would have to wait until next year to send troops to destroy it.
But with this war, the last battleable soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were also lost. At this time, if you don't send troops to destroy Yan, how can you justify it?
Having said that, Yan itself is a country with a weak military. Even the Zhongshan people and the Zhao people can press the Yan people to the ground and rub them.
The Yan people can bully, that is, the nomads outside the Saiwai, and sometimes they may not be able to beat them.
It is conceivable that the killing of Yan must be a success. Wen Chong thought for a while, and then said: "King, the minister thinks that the matter of destroying Yan can be slowed down. Bow first and then soldier, and the king can send another messenger into Yan to coerce and lure the Yan people to surrender with courtesy. ”
"If the Yan people don't surrender, then the king will let Wu Anjun send troops to destroy Yan."
"Okay." Being able to surrender without a fight is the best thing for Wu Guo. …… The time entered the thirty-second year of King Qingji of Wu, that is, in 482 BC, at the end of the fifth month of the lunar calendar.
After the Battle of Qi County, Sun Wu continued to lead his army north, occupied Daidi, and placed the county under management. After the destruction of the dynasty, Sun Wu was ordered by Qingji, and after resting, he rode 150,000 steps of Wu to the south bank of Yishui and set up camp.
If Yan Guo is still unwilling to surrender with Lilly, waiting for Yan Guo will be a catastrophe. At this critical moment, the monarchs and ministers of the Yan Kingdom, who were all in despair, finally thought it through.
Yan still has more than one million people, and more than 100,000 young men can be recruited to enlist in the army and fight with the Wu army.
However, in the end, the end of destruction could not be avoided. The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny.
In the past few years of tossing, the elite divisions of the Yan Kingdom have basically been disabled, and there are very few real combatable soldiers.
Using those young men who are unbearable to fight with the tiger and wolf army of Wu is tantamount to looking for death. Therefore, Ji Hou, the king of Yan, sent a letter to Sun Wu, and when the Wu army arrived in Jicheng, a grand surrender ceremony was held according to custom.
This means that the Yan Kingdom, which has existed for more than 500 years, has officially declared its demise. Ji Hou was canonized
"Yanhou", gave Jicheng 1,500 households, hereditary replacement, Qingji also rewarded a first-class mansion in Xianyang, so that Ji Hou and his family roll can move in.
In addition, things like gold, jade silk, silk, and fertile fields, Qingji was very generous to Ji Hou and treated him well.
On the side of Zhongshan Kingdom, the Zhongshan people are still resisting, so Wu State is not really unified.
However, in terms of form, the state of Wu has established a unified dynasty......
