After Wu Qi learned about Huaiguo, he began to assist Wang Pu in governing the country according to the development of Huaiguo. At the same time, Wu Qi was also trying to improve the system of Huaiguo.

Wu Qi reformed the military system of the Huai State, strengthened military training, and at the same time rewarded ploughing and warfare, and forbade the Ding people to be idle and not engaged in farming.

Those who produce grain and cloth are exempt from servitude and taxes, and are granted to agricultural officials to instruct others in farming, and are rewarded annually.

Encourage commerce, abolish the tax cards set up in various places, and replace them with unified collection by the state, all goods must be traded in designated markets, and if they are traded elsewhere, violators will be heavily fined.

In the past, tax cards were set up at various passes, water and land arteries to collect taxes, which was very easy to lead to corruption, and at the same time, there would be multiple taxations. This is not conducive to the central government's control of finances and taxes, so Wu Qi ordered the closure of these private tax cards.

Have all the merchants go to the markets in the cities to sell their goods.

This kind of sale of goods at designated places not only facilitates transactions, but also facilitates the collection of taxes by the state.

Of course, this method is not foolproof. But after all, it's more advanced than before. At the same time, after reducing the checkpoints, it will also promote the prosperity of commerce, thereby bringing higher taxes to Huaiguo.

At the same time, cultivation was rewarded, and a system of twenty knights according to military merit was promulgated to encourage warfare. At the same time, in order to curb land annexation, additional taxes were levied on those who owned more than 1,000 acres of land.

The county system was implemented in Huaiguo, with the county as the local administrative unit, and the county, township, town, and village were set up under the county. Standardize the local administrative system of the former Huaiguo.

At the same time, after the implementation of the county and township system, local conscription was also carried out in accordance with this, so as to improve the mobilization capacity of the country.

Just when Huai Guo was further changing the law, there were waves again in the Central Plains.

After Han and Zhao knew that Wu Qi had fled, the pressure on the two countries suddenly eased a lot, and they no longer had the feeling of trembling before.

Losing Wu Qi's deterrence, Zhao also went through more than ten years of reforms, and his national strength became stronger and stronger, and he once again wanted to meddle in the affairs of the Central Plains.

On the other hand, Wei Hou was dissatisfied because of the last time Zhao Hou sent troops to grind, and wanted to find trouble with Zhao State.

Zhao wanted to go south to the Central Plains, and when Wei and Qin were entangled, they sent troops to defend and break seven cities in a row. Originally, there were only a hundred miles left to defend the country, and seven cities were captured by the Zhao state, and there were almost only the national capital and the cities close to the national capital left.

Wei Hou asked Wei for help.

Wei Hou learned that Zhao was attacking, furious, immediately led a large army to fight with Zhao, although Wei did not have Wu Qi, but Wei Wushu was still there, Wei Hou's ability to command the battle was also very strong, Zhao and Wei fought and were defeated.

In order to punish Zhao for deliberately delaying the march last time, and with the intention of developing to the Central Plains, the Marquis of Wei found a joint attack on Zhao, and Wei and Korea jointly attacked Zhao, not only all the land seized by Zhao from Wei was recovered by Wei, but even the Wei and Han coalition forces crossed the Yellow River to attack Zhongmu, the old capital of Zhao.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Hou hurriedly sent envoys to ask for help from Qi and Chu. Because the Qi State was defeated by the Huai State, and then drove the Yan State away, the national strength was damaged a lot, so there were not many troops sent.

After the king of Chu was rescued by Zhao State, he was immediately overjoyed. You must know that Wei had snatched a lot of land from Chu before. Now that Wei is fighting Zhao, the Three Jin Alliance has broken down, and Zhao was immediately promised to send troops.

The king of Chu summoned Jing Mu and asked, "Jing Qing, Zhao Guo is asking for help, is our army going out to attack Wei now?" ”

"Your Majesty, it is unwise to attack at this time, Zhao and Wei are fighting, if we participate too early, Zhao will not suffer much, and Wei will be in full swing, and when the time comes, our army will also suffer heavy losses."

"The minister once saw the sandpiper and the mussels fighting by the river, but in the end a fisherman got all the mussels. At this time, Wei and Zhao competed, just like a sandpiper cladd, my Chu State can be a fisherman. ”

"After the fierce battle between Wei and Zhao, our army can send a large army north to rescue Zhao, and at the same time seize the land occupied by Wei."

The king of Chu immediately agreed to Jing Mu's suggestion, and soon the army was ready to go to battle, but it remained unmoved. It wasn't until Zhao was about to lose his hold that he sent troops to attack Wei.

Jing Mu personally led the army to attack the Wei State, and the Wei State did not expect the Chu State to attack because of the large army attacking Zhao, so he was caught off guard and lost one after another, and was taken away by the Chu State. And the army that originally suppressed Zhao was also affected.

After learning that Chu had sent troops, Zhao's morale soared, and the Zhao army, which had already been defeated and retreated, regrouped again and resisted Wei.

After learning that the State of Qi and Chu sent troops to rescue, the Marquis of Wei was worried about the loss of the State of Wei and wanted to lead a large army to rescue, but the State of Zhao took the opportunity to launch a counteroffensive, and the State of Wei was defeated again and again under the attack of the State of Chu and the State of Zhao.

The state of Chu even hit the edge of the Yellow River for a time.

Fortunately, Wei Hou was not a mediocre person, and after getting through the initial panic, he quickly stabilized his position and commanded Wei Wushu to fight against Chu, Qi, and Zhao.

Blocked the armies of the three countries, and even began to counterattack. For a time, the Central Plains was in flames.

However, in the end, it was the strength of the Wei State, and the Wei Wushu was still strong, and after a period of confrontation, they began to attack again and repelled the Three Kingdoms Alliance.

Even when the Three Kingdoms Coalition retreated, they still occupied some of the Wei lands.

A great battle between Wei and Zhao completely broke the alliance of the Three Jin Dynasty. Zhao and Wei turned their faces.

And after the destruction of the Three Jin Unions, the states of Chu, Qi, and Qin all breathed a sigh of relief. It is really after the union of the Three Jin Dynasty, the power of the coalition is too strong.

Whether it was the State of Chu or the State of Qi, they were not sure to deal with the Union of the Three Jins.

After Wei Guo saw that Zhao Guo completely turned his face, Wei Hou couldn't care much, and immediately used the secret hand left by Wen Hou. Support the prince of Zhao to win the position of Marquis of Zhao.

Originally, the predecessor Zhao Hou did not pass on the throne to his son after his death, but passed the throne to his brother's son according to the agreement, which made Zhao Sheng very dissatisfied.

After Zhao Hou ascended the throne, he wanted to raise troops, but was stopped by Wei Hou, and now Zhao Wei is fighting against each other, and Wei Hou immediately no longer has scruples, and directly sent troops to help Zhao Sheng.

Because Zhao moved its capital to Handan and changed the law, the interests of many nobles in Zhao were damaged, so after Zhao Sheng rebelled, there were many Zhao nobles who supported him, and after the support of Wei Hou, Zhao Sheng's strength increased rapidly.

After learning of Zhao Sheng's rebellion, Zhao Hou was furious and immediately ordered the army to suppress the rebellion.

The two armies fought in Handan, but after Zhao Hou changed the law, the army was stronger, and Zhao Sheng was not an opponent, so he was defeated and had to flee to Wei overnight.
