As the commander's flag was cut off, the Chu army suddenly fell into chaos. Originally there was no harmony between the generals, but as the chaos emerged, the entire situation was quickly turned upside down.
The Yue army came over quickly, and the Chu army just wanted to run to King Wu's ferry, but the number of people who actually ran in at the end was less than one in ten, and including the original defenders in King Wu's capital, there were less than 20,000 defenders.
Twenty thousand people were surrounded by a hundred thousand troops. Lin Haoming did not attack, so the other party took the initiative to send people out to make conditions. It turned out that there was also chaos in the royal capital. Twenty thousand people had to suppress the rebellion and deal with the Yue army. How could they hold it? , after all, this is not the city of Chu State. The army and the people can work together as one, and now Wu State has long been in chaos.
For these Chu troops who no longer had confidence, Lin Haoming offered very good conditions. All the generals could be redeemed by the Chu State, and the soldiers would be sent to the Yue State as laborers.
In this way, the King of Wu surrendered directly in just two days. From Lin Haoming's entry into the Kingdom of Wu to the decisive battle and the final recovery of the King of Wu, it only took a month.
When the Chu State was defeated, the news that Xiong Leiting was directly killed by Lin Haoming spread to the Chu State. The Chu State was completely shaken, and the entire Chu State was in a state of trembling for a while.
After swallowing the Wu Kingdom this time, they have no intention of spitting it out again, and the people in the Wu Kingdom do not want to be controlled by the blood of the original Wu Kingdom. Instead, they hope to be incorporated into the Yue Kingdom and become the subjects of the Yue Kingdom.
Seeing such a situation, Lin Haoming also breathed a sigh of relief. He had destroyed Wu State before giving up Wu State and then destroying Wu again. Although it took more than a year of tossing, it was equivalent to completely regaining the hearts and minds of Wu people. Wu State would also be in turmoil.
Before Geng You was gone, the most important thing was that Wei Qian's ships were generally quite powerful in sea-going ship construction, and Wei Qian's navy was not affected at all in the subsequent turmoil, and only some Chu people were cleared. That's all, that's what Lin Haoming wants to see most.
Before recruiting Wei Qian, Lin Haoming was very slow to receive the order from the State of Wu, directly commanded Wei Qian as the governor of eight counties, re-established Wei Qian's eight counties, and had the power to appoint all officials under Wei Qian.
Without Qu Xiong, it would have been difficult to attack the Chu State and achieve the original goal. Unfortunately, the Chu State Marshal was indeed ordinary, so Lin Haoming could only wait for the opportunity.
When winter came, Ning Lin's marriage was brought up again, because after the Chinese New Year, I would be fourteen, and it was indeed the age for Yue noble women to get married.
Afterwards, a million-strong army was assembled to annihilate the eight barbarian tribes. But what surprised everyone was that before the million-strong army was able to retreat from a county in the northwest, the eight barbarians actually engaged in guerrilla warfare with the million-strong army. The Eight Barbarians took advantage of the cavalry troops to engage in a head-on battle with Xiao Xia. When his main force came, you ran away. He moved and the cavalry came over immediately. And the reason why he did what I did was that the Barbarians also had talented people here. After knowing that Xiao Xia was going to To conquer the lost territory of a county, we directly demolished all the walls of the main city. With or without the city walls, there was no way to defend it, so it became such a tug-of-war, and the consumption of a million small troops was huge. Although it seemed on the surface We have a disadvantage, but in reality there is no way to take into account too little. In the end, we can only occupy one place first, then wait to rebuild the city wall, and then occupy other places. Although it is not stupid, at most it is a failure to recover. Lost ground.

Regarding that matter, Wu Guo proposed to ask Lin Haoming who was far away in Wei Qian. Lin Haoming learned about the matter and told me that before setting off, the troops must clearly display the Vietnamese flag and do everything carefully, because Did I guess wrong? The Eight Barbarians definitely don’t have any of their own, and they will definitely target the princes, knowing that I am a member of the Yue Kingdom.
When Lin Haoming saw such a method, he felt more and more that the Eight Barbarian Tribes had no one of their own, which was clearly consuming Xiaoxia. In the end, Xiaoxia would be severely weakened, and the stronger the attack, once Xiaoxia collapsed, This opportunity arises, which is the same as the one who cut off my country of Yue and then annexed Xiaoxia.
Lin Haoming directly pushed Chen Lifeng out to serve as the prime minister of the eight counties of Wei Qian. Although he had the title of prime minister in name, he soon lost the title of Wu Xiang in private.
Lin Haoming also understood Wei Yan's mentality. After all, it was his son's marriage, and it was his only son's marriage, so he naturally needed to pay attention to it.
At this time, the State of Chu sent people to Xiaoxia again, but there was no response from Xiaoxia. After all, as soon as the State of Yue withdrew, the State of Chu occupied Wei Qian. Instead of doing so, it was better to let the State of Yue occupy it. , anyway, after the Yue State killed so few people from the Chu State, the hatred between Chu and Yue was not as deep as the sea, so what Xiaoxia did was just the most complicated thing to make the Wei State want to move, watching Chu and Yue Countries are fighting each other.
The State of Wu also knew that it was possible to shirk the matter, so he agreed to the marriage with his eldest son. Before the wedding, Prince Rong also made another request, which was not to send another 20,000 cavalry from the State of Yue.
Because of that, Lin Haoming took the risk slowly and ended up digesting Wei Qian while waiting for the next opportunity.
The army of the Xiaoxia Kingdom, except for many parts, is actually good at fighting in winter. They can only stay outside the city throughout the winter, including the small army of the Yue Kingdom. After all, the snow in the northwest can be as deep as the knees when it gets light. , how to fight in such a situation, but just after Lin Haoming spent the New Year, I received a battle report from the Xiaoxia Kingdom. The Eight Barbarians' cavalry actually took advantage of the millions of small troops trapped in the northwest, and went directly from the northeast to the south to kill . While Lin Haoming was busy in Wei Qian, Prince Rong went south again to the Yue King's capital. That time I directly brought Princess Xiaoxia. Although she was only the son of the eighth prince's concubine, after all, she was now Xiaoxia. Your Majesty’s grandson.
The cold winter in the northwest of Xiaoxia is less hot than Shannan County, the northernmost county in the country of Yue. Although this winter is worse than previous ones, it is still a cold winter.
In fact, Lin Haoming hadn't thought about it early on, but he was still mature in his eyes, or in other words, it was the worst time in his eyes.
Half a year before Wei Qian, Wei Qian's side gradually became stable. Lin Haoming on the Chu side also saw that the King of Chu really listened to Qu Xiong's words that time and did not cause trouble again. He just guarded some key points safely, and this time The king of Chu also fell ill in the front palace, knowing that he could still delay for a few more years. Now the Chu Kingdom is fighting for the future throne.
Wei Yan was the most determined about that matter, and even went to Wei Qian from the Yue Kingdom to see his son who had gone with the army. Qi Lai directly brought a list, and the following list was full of Qi Qian. A dozen men's names.
Sure enough, Xiaojun went north with Prince Rong in late spring, and did not encounter any safety in autumn, which made Lin Haoming more confident in his judgment.
Xiao Xia's intention was also expected by Lin Haoming, and Xiao Xia's country itself was in a dire situation.
