A few months later.

The grass grows and the warbler flies, and the ice and snow melt.

After the winter hunt, there is no more story worth telling in the Chu State - the refugees have been properly settled, and there is no foolish head in the world, and there is no need to do something in the winter (there is no connotation of the meaning of the first king Qihuai).

Everything was harmonious and serene!

Xiong Wuliang squatted in Yingdu for a whole winter - in a few months, the reconstruction work in Yingdu was quite good.

Thanks to the fact that Yingdu is located in the south, even in winter, the project will not be delayed - if it is placed in the north, the land will be frozen in the cold winter, and there is no possibility of construction.

The time of winter is fleeting.

Spring has quietly come, the days are getting longer and longer, and the temperature is gradually rising - Xiong Wuliang personally helped Quyuan to plow an acre of land on the day of the beginning of spring, showing the beginning of spring ploughing to the government and the opposition.

The peasants all over the mountains began to work.

The Huainan Plain, which was once destroyed by Sima Cuo's coalition army, is thriving at the moment - Quyang Hou has a fate: on the Huainan Plain, no agricultural tax will be collected for three years.

The farmers who survived the catastrophe are full of energy!

Quyang Academy has sent a large number of talents to the Huainan Plain, and now this fertile granary has been initially in the hands of Xiong Wuliang, and the organization and mobilization are not weak.

Even before the arrival of last winter, the Quyang construction team not only built a large number of houses large enough to survive the winter, but also repaired water conservancy facilities and smoother and wider roads.

Huainanping's cause is a blessing in disguise.

For the foreseeable future, this fertile plain will be even richer than it was before the Great War last year!

"Quyang Hou, Quyang Hou, your kindness is not over ...... whole life" The loud singing echoed in the field.

……

After the beginning of spring, the three plans of 'opening up Lingnan', 'attacking Bashu', and 'revenge against Yueguo' set by Zhao Hua had not yet had time to be done, but a big thing happened first-

The envoys of Qi and Zhao came to Yingdu one after another! Intentions to form an alliance!

Needless to say, the State of Qi - the land of the King of Qi and the regent of the State of Chu have the friendship of a righteous father and a righteous son, and they are the hardcore allies of the State of Chu.

The envoys of the State of Qi came this time to reaffirm the old covenant and express their diplomatic support for 'Xiong Wuliang's regent in the State of Chu' by the way.

However, it is a big deal for the envoys of Zhao to come to Yingdu!

Recall-

Before the winter of last year, Zhao Yong, the king of Zhao, raised an army of 200,000 and attacked the Qin State!

At that time, the Qin State was the end of the strong crossbow.

In addition, Zhao has a strong army, and there is a top 'S+' general like Zhao Yong......

So Zhao Jun passed all the way and conquered the city, as if entering a no-man's land!

The Qin State resisted desperately, almost trying to recruit strong men from all over the world; At the same time, with an almost strict attitude, he asked those Rongdi and Yiqu tribes attached to the Qin State in the western steppe to send troops to help.

Bai Qi, who had just picked up a life from Yingdu and returned, was ordered to resist the invasion of Zhao in the face of the doubts of the government and the opposition of the Qin State.

Bai Qi fully demonstrated his talent for war, coupled with the fact that the Qin people piled up human lives one after another at any cost, and finally resisted the attack of the Zhao people less than a hundred miles north of Xianyang......

At that time, the weather was already very cold.

Zhao Yong's supply line was stretched very long, and the cold in the north was really beyond the imagination of southerners...... So I could only regret the truce.

Although this battle failed to completely destroy the Qin State as Zhao Yong had expected at the beginning.

However, Zhao Guo's robbery took advantage of the fire, and he still made a good profit!

A large area of Qin's territory was breached, and a considerable part of it was unceremoniously incorporated into Zhao's territory. In addition, the plundered population, livestock, weapons, money, and food...... It's even more difficult to count.

It can only be said that Zhao Yong, the sixth old, has made a lot of money!

In such an epic battle of 300,000 allied troops attacking Chu, Qin and Chu were undoubtedly the biggest losers - the former made matters worse and lost the appearance of a strong country; The latter suffered heavy losses and fell off the throne of the hegemon.

The confrontation between the Qi State and the Yan State on the border can be regarded as an empty waste of money and food.

Although Wei and Korea lost a lot of troops, fortunately, they were not ravaged by enemy countries like the hapless Qin state—and they were undoubtedly big losers, but they were not too miserable.

The real and only big winner - only Zhao Guo!

Zhao Ren raised his eyebrows!

In this great battle, the people of Zhao Guoren marched and broke through at a speed that shocked the world, showing terrifying combat effectiveness!

Under the personal leadership of Zhao Yong, the central cavalry group concentrated on breaking through, quickly tearing open the opening of the Qin people's defensive line, and then continued to advance in depth; The chariot unit and the accompanying infantry poured into it in one fell swoop, completely tearing apart the enemy's defenses.

Next, it is the inhumane interspersing, encircling, and harvesting......

Zhao Ren's superb cavalry tactics shocked the world!

It was such a simple tactical coordination, and it was repeatedly displayed in a mediocre manner, and it turned out that the Qin people were powerless to parry...... If it weren't for the tenacious will of the Qin soldiers, many soldiers who were deeply encircled still fought bloodily until the last moment, desperately dragging down the speed of the Zhao army before the cold winter completely came...... There is no doubt that the Qin State will surely fall into the country.

……

Having said that, it's not that Zhao Guo hasn't won battles before.

But well, that's all about fighting Zhongshan Country!

Fighting a small country like Zhongshan, even if it wins, what kind of ability is it?

I'll do it too!

With such a thought, except for Xiong Wuliang, the countries actually did not attach importance to the Zhao State after the 'Hufu Cavalry Shooting'.

But after this battle, the eyes of the nations are different!

The kingdom under the heavens, no longer dare to underestimate the Zhao country-

Today's Zhao State, in terms of military strength alone, is already the first power in the world!

Wei and South Korea trembled even more...... I'm scared!

Fortunately, last winter, Zhao Yong, the sixth old, chose to fight Qin Guo...... If you're coming for our brothers...... Let's guess it's gg.

In any case, Zhao is such a brand-new military power, and of course his every move is very eye-catching.

The envoys of the Zhao people went to Yingdu to seek an alliance, which was undoubtedly of great significance to the Chu State, and also had a far-reaching impact on the pattern of the world!

But then again, the people of Zhao and Chu have always had little contact because the two countries do not share a border...... What is the purpose of making such a sudden come?

"Please help me with my doubts." In the temporary palace of Yingdu, the unscrupulous boss Xiong Wuliang was very humble at the moment.

It's not okay not to be humble - it's spring, and there are a lot of things to be busy with, all pointing to the good brothers in front of you......

As a boss, of course, the attitude towards the gold medal workers with good performance under his command can be extremely humble...... It's even a little flattering.

Qu Yuan and the others pouted a little speechlessly...... In the end, it was still Zhao Slippery who turned his eyes the fastest, and replied with his hand-

"Returning to the Lord—"
