Just when Lu Yuan began to worry a little because of the lack of troops in his hands.

Thousands of miles away in Yuzhou, Zheng Guojun's ministers also began to worry about their own country.

Compared with the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Liang, which had a fierce confrontation with the Chu State, on the side of Yuzhou, Zheng Guo, which was arranged by the two camps of the Chu State, was also hot.

It's just that Zheng Guo's national strength is much worse than the other major hegemons in Kyushu after all.

In other hegemonic countries, there are not more than 20 million people in the country, or even 30 or 40 million.

For example, Liang has a population of 70 million and has been the number one overlord in the world for a long time.

But on the side of Zheng Guo, since the civil war of separation, the reunited Zheng State has greatly declined, and it will never regain the majesty of the former lord of a state.

At that time, the population of the whole country was only 20 million.

After Zheng Guo ceded Yangxia County and its millions of people to Chu in order to bring disaster to the east, the total population fell below 20 million, and it became the last hegemon like the Jin State.

It has completely become a small country among hegemonic countries.

And it is such a small hegemon that has declined, but when Chu went north, he blatantly turned against the water, broke away from the camp of Chu, and joined the side of Liang.

This undoubtedly annoyed Lu Yuan and annoyed the state of Chu.

So last year, Lu Yuan asked the Yangxia camp, which was originally aimed at Liang Guo and was ready to attack Liang Guo from the east, to change the target.

Directly from the original attack on Jiaodong County to the attack on Zheng State's Gaomi County.

Gaomi County is located in the east of Yangxia County, and further east from this county is Changguang County, where the imperial capital of Zheng State is located on the seashore, and where Xinzheng City is located.

Therefore, after cutting off Yangxia County, Gaomi County became the most important place in the west of Xinzheng.

In such an important place, Zheng Guo naturally defended strictly and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

After the initial rebellion, Zheng Guo gathered 800,000 troops, of which 600,000 were placed in Gaomi County.

There are still 200,000 left, which are placed in the north of Yangxia County, Gaoyang County of Zheng State.

The two counties, one north and one east, became Zheng Guo's pincers and clamped the Yangxia County of Chu State.

It's just that in Zheng Guoren's opinion, this is a sturdy iron tong.

But in the eyes of Chu State, these are two separate chopsticks, which are vulnerable.

After the Chu army in the Yangxia camp withdrew, Huang Xuan only repaired it slightly, and then left 300,000 people here to defend against the Zheng army in the north and the Liang people in the west.

Later, he led the main force of the 800,000 Chu army and 200,000 Zheng Lai's Yangxia County people, and entered Gaomi County.

In the face of this tiger and wolf carefully selected by the Chu State, the Zheng State army of Gaomi County was not an opponent at all, but in the early stage of the battle, it lost several battles in a row on the frontal battlefield, losing more than 100,000 soldiers.

After that, in the face of the provocation of the Chu army, the Zheng army, which was frightened, did not dare to go to the battlefield again, but only knew that it blindly stuck to the city and carried out passive defense.

That's a good idea.

After all, with the current limelight of the Chu army, not to mention the Zheng people, other countries, and even the Liang State, are all on the battlefield and are defeated and retreated.

It is not only Zheng Guo who is afraid of confronting the Chu army head-on, but also other countries.

Zheng Guo followed suit, and there was nothing to be ashamed of.

And it works.

After the countries adopted defensive strategies, relying on the advantage of strong city defense, it did curb the momentum of the Chu army at the beginning.

Now all the battlefields have fallen into a stalemate of confrontation because of this.

However, in Gaomi County, Zheng Guoneng and the Yangxia camp of the Chu army were at a stalemate, so that they could not continue to advance eastward.

But the problem is that the Chu army came this time, but there was more than one Yangxia camp.

Annoyed by Zheng Guo's betrayal, Lu Yuan sent a waterway camp in addition to the Yangxia camp, and directly went out to attack Zheng Guo from the sea.

Take a boat in Donghae County and go to Zheng Guo, the journey is not far.

It takes more than ten days to arrive, which is very convenient.

Therefore, when all Zheng Guo's attention was attracted to Gaomi County by Yangxia Xingying, this sudden water wonder soldier, when he appeared on the stage, he performed a surprise for Zheng Guoren.

As I said before, although Zheng Guo is a hegemon, it is only a small country among the hegemons.

After the cession of Yangxia County, its population was only more than 18 million.

With this amount of population, no matter how capable you are, you can't actually raise much of an army.

And so it is.

Before the war with the Chu army, Zheng Guo's entire army was about 1.3 million people.

Of these 1.3 million people, the two counties of Gaomi and Gaoyang were divided into 800,000. The borders between the north and the Tang and Jin kingdoms, no matter how much they are reduced, will need to divide 300,000 people.

In the end, only 100,000 people remained in the country.

These 100,000 people were all arranged in the imperial capital Xinzheng to protect the safety of Gyeonggi.

In addition, there are 100,000 sailors, which are also arranged near Xinzheng City near the sea.

With such an analysis, everyone is almost clear that Zheng Guodi is detailed.

Yes.

Except for the frontline border, including the imperial capital of Zheng State, its hinterland is extremely empty, and there are not many soldiers and horses stationed in large territories.

Therefore, when the 500,000 army and 200,000 sailors of the waterway camp arrived, after defeating Zheng Guo's only surface defense, that is, the 100,000 sailors.

The strange soldiers sent by the Chu State landed directly on the shore and surrounded Xinzheng City.

The army of 500,000 Chu is coming to the city, which will cost Zheng Guo's life!

Chu Guo came suddenly, and he didn't give Xinzheng Cheng much time to prepare at all.

In particular, the sailors of the Chu State, after eliminating the water power of the Zheng State, went directly into the mainland of the Zheng State along the Weishui near the new Zheng City, and sealed the various water and land arteries of the Zheng State along the rivers.

In just a few days, not only Xinzheng City was cut off from the outside world, but even Changguang County, and even the counties within Zhengguo, were also cut off from each other.

Although the counties in the interior of Zheng still border each other, they are in fact cut off from each other.

Because of this, Zheng Guo was split into several pieces.

In this case, even if the monarchs and ministers of Xinzheng City wanted to send ministers and envoys to various places to convey their wills, so that the local county guards could come to Qinwang, it became extremely difficult.

In this world with innate masters, the warriors are powerful, flying eaves and walls, coming and going, and it is really difficult or even impossible to use a large army to completely trap them to death.

But the same.

Even if these messengers who can convey information go out, they will face the current situation that Zheng Guo has been divided into countless pieces, and face the current situation that the water division of Chu State has been murdered by the major water systems of Zheng State.

Even if they can contact the local county guards and let the officials pull up the army of King Qin, this is only the army of King Qin in a region.

In the case of being cut off from transportation, even if the army of King Qin from other places is pulled out, it is extremely difficult to bring them together.

And if you can't gather in one place and gather your forces, even if King Qin's army is pulled up, what is the use of facing the Chu army, which has the advantage of waterways and can quickly gather troops?

Of course.

In the face of Zheng State, which occupies half of Yuzhou, it is unrealistic to want to completely split it with only 200,000 Chu State sailors.

There are always places that the sailors can't take care of, so that Zheng Guo's army can cross the river and gather. Or in some places, there is no river at all, and they can pass through unimpeded.

But this kind of place is always rare and remote.

Zheng Jun chose this route to march, and when they gathered, they didn't know how long it was.

When they arrived at King Qin, the daylilies were cold.

The purpose of the Chu State Sailor to block foreign aid was naturally achieved.

Therefore, after the operation of the Chu Army's water division, Zheng Guo fell into a situation where he could not use the soldiers, or it was difficult to use them.

But if there is no foreign aid, how can only the 100,000 defenders in Xinzheng City be able to resist the attack of the 500,000 Chu army?

Especially because Xinzheng City is near the sea, the Chu army broke through its water surface protection and could directly land under the city without giving the slightest time to react.

Therefore, when the Chu army besieged the city, even if Xinzheng City wanted to gather some people around it and let them help defend the city, it would not be possible.

In Xinzheng City, there are only 400,000 residents in total, and no matter how hard you try to recruit soldiers, you can only recruit 80,000 or 90,000 people.

This number of people, plus the defenders, is less than 200,000, which is still far inferior to the Chu army.

In addition, there is a lack of innate grandmasters in the city, and the situation of Xinzheng City is even more difficult.

After the siege began, the Chu army tried to attack, and after more than a month, Xinzheng City was crumbling and had a tendency to fall.

If it weren't for the heavy snow coming into winter later, it would be difficult to go out, and I am afraid that last year, Xinzheng City would be knocked down.

But the cold winter will pass.

Relying on the heavy snow for a while, Xinzheng City survived for a year.

But in the spring of this year, for most of the year, he didn't have that much of a good time.

In early spring and March, when Lu Yuan launched the second Northern Expedition, the Xinzheng City side also began the second siege as promised.

And this time was different, not long after the siege of the city, with Lu Yuan's instruction to use prisoners of war, the 200,000 soldiers captured by Zheng Guo were also sent.

Then, as usual, these people were driven by the Chu army and sent to a brutal siege battle.

The previous attack on Xinzheng City, because it was all Chu people, the Chu army still had some regrets, and they couldn't let go of their hands and feet.

But now that it is replaced by Zheng Ren, there is no scruples.

I used it to death, and I used it desperately.

200,000 soldiers, with some elite of the Chu army, launched a continuous assault on Xinzheng City in just ten days.

The Zheng people in the city, where have they ever seen such a battle?

In addition, after being besieged for half a year, they also suffered considerable losses in soldiers and horses, and the morale of the city gradually declined.

So after most of these soldiers died, the defenders of Xinzheng City could no longer hold on.

Many of the Zheng army guards began to disperse.

And without these ordinary soldiers, as a barrier wing, they are used to consume the innate true qi power of the Chu army.

Zheng Guo in the city is congenital, and it is no longer difficult to fight against Chu Jun congenital.

With Lu Yuan's two doppelgangers, he took the lead in ascending to the top of the city and personally killed the two Zheng Guotian queens in the city.

The top combat power of the Zheng army was missing, and the soldiers at the bottom began to flee, and there were flaws everywhere, and Xinzheng City naturally couldn't defend it anymore.

Finally, on May 23, the 42nd year of Shenwu, Xinzheng City was broken by the Chu army, and except for a small number of monarchs and ministers of Zheng State, under the cover of the innate grandmaster, they took the opportunity to break through.

The other children of the clan who remained in the city of Zheng Guo, the nobles and nobles, and the big and small officials, all became prisoners of the Chu State.

Zheng Guo's ruling core was taken in half at once.

Xinzheng City has also become the first hegemonic imperial capital captured by Chu since the Northern Expedition.

Well, the previous Wei State's Heyin City did not count.

Although this city is nominally the eastern capital of Wei, in fact, Wei Jun has never been there, and it is only a name, and it is only operated as Chengdu City.

This is very different from Xinzheng, a big city that has always been regarded as the core of a country and the core of a state.

The fall of Xinzheng City and the escape of Zheng Jun became a turning point in the war of Chu in Yuzhou.

As the news spread, around Xinzheng City, some Zhengguofu counties that were still holding on to them were suddenly shaken and their hearts were scattered.

After the Ben Chu army cleaned up the mess of Xinzheng and began to send troops to attack the nearby cities, all the towns they passed along the way fell to the wind.

Some prefectures and counties, without even waiting for the arrival of the Chu army, sent envoys to lose their sincerity and changed the Chu flag in advance.

It didn't take much effort, and the remaining prefectures and counties of Changguang County were controlled by the Chu army.

Then, after leaving some soldiers and horses to guard Changguang County, the waterway camp continued to march westward, and attacked Gaomi County to the east, preparing to cooperate with the Yangxia camp, and the other two routes to join the camp.

However, the waterway camp came a little slower.

Zheng Jun on the side of Gaomi County, after hearing the news of the fall of Xinzheng, knew that something was wrong.

In the case that you have lost your back road, continuing to stay here is simply a dead end.

Waiting for Xinzheng's Chu army to arrive, in the face of two-way attacks, he had no way to survive.

Therefore, without waiting for the arrival of the waterway camp, the remaining more than 300,000 Zheng troops in Gaomi County began to evacuate in advance and retreated north to Pyeongchang County.

Although the Yangxia camp led by Huang Xuan also carried out some entanglement and pursuit, the determination and will of the Zheng army to retreat, as well as the ability to act, were indeed too strong.

After chasing for a while, although more than 100,000 people were left, in the end, the Zheng army, which was about 200,000, escaped.

This is somewhat of a pity.

Fortunately, although Zheng Jun escaped partially, counting the previous gains, there are also the results of Xinzheng's side.

Since the eastern expedition to Yuzhou, the Chu army has successively killed and captured more than 700,000 Zheng troops, captured two counties, and captured the imperial capital, which can be described as brilliant results.

And Zheng Guo suffered a fiasco after this fiasco, and his vitality was greatly damaged, and he completely collapsed.

But that's not the end of it.

After the two camps met, Lu Yuan ordered the reorganization and merged the two camps of Yangxia and Waterway into the Yuzhou camp.

After the integration, the two camps totaled 1.2 million soldiers, 150,000 sailors, 100,000 people, and 300,000 soldiers, totaling 1.75 million troops.

After the reorganization of the Yuzhou camp, there is only one goal, that is, to destroy the Zheng State and seize the land of Southern Yuzhou controlled by the other party.

So after a short rest for more than a month and sorting out the existing control area, the Yuzhou camp continued to attack northward.

It's just that at this time, Zheng Guo's side has almost reacted, and under the pain of the fall of the national capital, he has completed a full mobilization.

Zheng Jun, who had fled from the national capital, reappeared in Pyeongchang County with the crown prince, prime minister, general and others, and announced the establishment of a new capital in Zhuxu City in this county.

Later, after Zheng Jun broke away from the cage, he began to work quickly to integrate the remaining territory in China.

After losing the two counties of Gaomi and Changguang, Zheng Guo's remaining territory was only Yidu County, Gaoyang County, and Pyeongchang County in the north, and Haiyang County in the north of Changguang County and the eastern sea frontier.

Combined, it totals four counties.

The population of these four counties is also about 10 million.

On the verge of dying, I can't care about anything.

At this time, after mobilization, all men were recruited, and Zheng people also made an army of 2.5 million people.

Among them, there are about seventeen innate grandmasters left.

In general, Zheng Guoren still has the strength to fight.

But it was at this time that Zheng Guo focused a lot of energy on the south, preparing to fight to the death with Chu State.

The Tang Kingdom in the north, after being targeted by the surrounding countries and holding back for more than half a year, was already depressed in his heart, and it was unbearable.

At this time, when he saw the corner of the surrounding blockade ring, his old enemy Zheng Guo was in trouble, and the blockade against himself was broken, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

As mentioned earlier, the monarchs and ministers of the Tang State don't talk about the long-term, and they don't want to care about the cold lips and teeth.

He just wants immediate gain.

So at this time, seeing that Zheng Guo was down, a large number of soldiers and horses in the north were lost to the south, and after the defense was empty, where could he still endure it.

Needless to say, millions of Tang troops marched south and directly entered the empty Yidu County of Zheng State.

Otherwise, in terms of picking up cheap, Tang Guo is good at it!

After seizing the right time, this Yidu County was easily taken into the hands of Tang Guo without much resistance.

Then the Tang army continued to move south, rushing towards the new capital of Zheng State, and Zhu Xucheng came.

Seeing this situation, how can Zheng Guoren still sit still?

What to fight with the Chu people in the south, what to recapture the old capital, all of them can't be taken care of.

If you don't block the Tang people, you will perish yourself, and it will only be an overnight moment.

But at this time, the new head of the Yuzhou camp, Huang Xuan in the south, also saw the opportunity, and took advantage of the situation to send troops north, entangled the main force of the Zheng army in the south, and prevented it from going north to rescue.

With the cooperation of the Tang and Chu armies, Zheng Guo fell into an embarrassing two-sided attack.

Fortunately, at this time, the Jin Kingdom in the east was not as short-sighted as the Tang State and had its own view of the overall situation.

Seeing that Zheng Guo was about to be unable to hold on, he was about to be destroyed by the two kingdoms of Tang and Chu.

At a critical time, the Jin Kingdom made a move.

After communicating with Zheng Guo, it sent an army of 600,000 from the east, entered Yidu County, and once again copied the back road of the Tang army.

The back road was threatened, and the Tang army naturally could not continue to move south safely, so it had to turn back and engage the Jin army.

So Zheng Guo, who was almost on the verge of dying, finally picked up a life and could continue to survive.

It's just that even if he saves his life for the time being, in the face of this dilemma of being attacked back and forth, and being attacked by the enemy in the abdomen and back, Zheng Guo is really difficult to support.

Coupled with more than a year of war and the blow of the fall of the imperial capital, Zheng Guo actually couldn't fight anymore.

In the end, after a period of quarrel and deliberation, Zheng Guo finally bowed his head to reality and sent an envoy to Chu again to discuss the matter of seeking peace.
