Grandma, Qi has been offended anyway.
Neither left nor right can fight.
I might as well give you the whole hard, whole big job!
If you think about it carefully, [Langya] is an important town in the northern part of Yue Kingdom, the home of King Yao. How many people must be there? How much food?
Xiong Wuliang's Quyang County is crying for food, and Mr. Mi Liang has even sacks ready, waiting to make a big profit.
At this time, Qi came to pick peaches.
It is unbearable!
Do you want to swallow Langya away without leaving any price?
"Shaohu!" Xiong Wuliang greeted loudly.
The tent door opened, and Shaohu came stomping in. He held his hands in a simple and honest manner: "My lord, what are your orders?"
Xiong Wuliang smiled sinisterly: "Tonight you take dozens of people and set a fire in the forest!"
"I'm going to burn Yushan."
"Let the miserable Qi people stay warm."
Shaohu was a brainless fool, and he didn't think about the consequences at all. He decisively accepted the order: "No, I will go and recruit some capable people right now!"
"Wait!" Xiong Wuliang grabbed Shaohu and whispered: "Be careful where you go, don't let others see you..."
…
It was already the end of May, and the forest was very lush and leafy, and it was not easy to light it.
But if it is deliberately set on fire, it will definitely burn.
In the middle of the night, Yushan was on fire!
Thick smoke rose into the sky and spread quickly. Not long after, the shouts of the Qi army could be faintly heard deep in Yushan...
The soldiers of the Chu Army were awakened and poked their heads out of their tents in bewilderment. They looked at the raging fire all over the mountain and looked at each other with confusion on their faces.
The cautious Xiong Wuliang smiled slightly.
Anyway, Yushan will be the territory of Qi State from now on, and labor and management no longer need to protect your green mountains and clear waters.
This fire tonight is my gift to Qi Jun!
Shaohu appeared behind Xiong Wuliang without anyone noticing: "My lord, it's done!"
Xiong Wuliang nodded and expressed satisfaction: "Good job! No one discovered it, right?"
Shaohu smiled honestly: "Master, don't worry."
Two of Wu Ben's soldiers came in a hurry. They saw Xiong Wuliang from a distance and hurriedly raised their hands and said, "Your Majesty, General Wu Ben has invited me."
Xiong Wuliang came to Wu Ben's large tent of the Chinese army and saw that Wu Ben was wearing plain clothes and his hair was not tied up in a bun. He had obviously just gotten up from the bed.
Wu Bi pulled Xiong Wuliang over and asked anxiously: "Qu Yangjun, what is the situation of the Yushan fire?"
Xiong Wuliang spread his hands and said with an innocent face: "Hmm... maybe the people of Qi have suffered retribution for not doing good things?"
Wu Ben's head was covered with black lines.
If you don’t tell me, I won’t know?
When it was just getting dark, the hairy guy standing behind you led thirty troops, holding the bronze seal of your Quyang Army, and said clearly that Xiong Wuliang was greedy and wanted to go out to fight. Pheasant and rabbit go...
Grandma drops.
The soldiers guarding the camp gate have already told me that these guys were the only ones who went out all day today.
If you, Xiong Wuliang, hadn't started this fire, there would be something wrong!
As for those who are riding horses, there is no guarantee that we can start a fight here, but you will only add fuel to the fire!
If the people of Qi know that this mountain fire was caused by us Chu people, we will have to fight this battle if we don't want to fight!
…
[Yu Mountain] The terrain is narrow and rugged, with no flat ground - there is no space for Qi's 30,000-strong army to set up camp.
Since the Qi army wants to defend Yushan, it must station its camp in the forest, and the camp will spread for several miles in front and back.
This fire is enough for the people of Qi to drink a pot.
It is conceivable that Tian Zhen must be very anxious now - at least thousands of Qi people will be burned to death after this night.
Wu Bi glanced at Xiong Wuliang, who had an innocent face, and secretly clicked his tongue.
You must not offend this young master in the future.
This guy's revenge is too strong!
And it’s full of bad tricks! Look at Mi Fei, the leader of the left army, he is almost mentally exhausted after being tortured by this guy!
…
Qu Ping led the Chu army to Yushan, where the three armies met.
In addition to the 150,000 troops who originally attacked Yue, except for the 20,000 currently stationed in Jianyang and the many garrison soldiers left behind in various Yue cities, there are still 100,000 in front of Yushan.
It can be seen from this that the Chu army suffered very few casualties in this attack on Vietnam.
If it hadn't been for the trouble caused by the people of Qi, it would have been a complete victory.
Qu Ping looked at the bare and charred Yushan Mountain in front of him, and his entire body fell into silence.
"Where are the people of Qi?"
"Reporting to General Zhuguo, the Qi army withdrew from Yushan and retreated twenty miles to camp." Wu Bi said.
As he spoke, he glanced at Xiong Wuliang beside him, and decided to keep this secret of arson in his heart forever...
Qu Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the fight will not be possible in a short time.
Yushan was completely bare, and there was no chance of setting up an ambush.
Now the two sides are separated by a scorched Yushan Mountain, and there is only a narrow mountain road connecting them. If anyone wants to launch an attack, they must form a long snake formation and pass through the mountain road, and then face the enemy who is already waiting for them.
It can be said that whoever attacks will suffer.
Just as Qu Ping expected, the Qi and Chu armies sat in silence for a month and stared, with no one making any move.
About a month later, an envoy from Yingdu brought an order from the King of Chu - to use Yushan as the border to divide Yue State from Qi State; at the same time, he ordered Qu Ping's army to return to the court.
There was not even a mention of the death of Tian Yu, the senior official of Qi State.
It was exactly as Xiong Wuliang expected.
Qu Ping then ordered Wu Ben to lead 10,000 troops and continue to garrison at the southern foot of Yushan Mountain to build a city to prevent the Qi people from betraying their promise and making a sneak attack.
The rest of the Chu army raised their camps and defeated the entire army!
This battle will devour the country of Yue! Capture King Qian and King Lie alive!
To the south of Yushan, more than 80% of the territory that originally belonged to the Yue State was taken over by the Chu State.
Only the small piece of land north of Yushan was divided up by the shameless Qi people.
With such a hearty victory, it was natural for everyone to feel comfortable in this battle.
Even the most ordinary Chu soldiers had a few gold and copper items in their pockets - and when they returned to Yingdu, the King of Chu would definitely reward them generously. As for the soldiers who were unfortunately killed or wounded, they would also receive generous compensation from the delighted King Huai of Chu.
As you can imagine, the entire Chu army camp was full of laughter and laughter, everyone was satisfied and happy.
To say that he lost his pants in this battle, looking at the entire 150,000 Chu army... it was probably only one person.
…
Before leaving camp, Xiong Wuliang wrote hard and wrote a letter.
"Junliang of Chu Quyang paid a visit to King Si Jing of Yue, and he saw the words as if they were on his face——"
"Your daughter Siyi is in my hands. If you want her to be safe and sound, please prepare thirty thousand gold and goods and send them to Quyang County as soon as possible."
Xiong Wuliang put away his pen and handed the letter to Zhong Hua, who was standing by and his mouth was twitching: "Take it and send two capable people to deliver it to Si Jing."
Zhong Hua's face turned dark.
What is 'seeing the words as the face'.
King Si of Yue was shocked when he saw your letter. What kind of face did he imagine you to have?
What a shame!
Although my master is unscrupulous, he is very kind to the people around him. Siyi had never been harshly treated at home. Although she was a maid named Xiong Wuliang, she actually had enough food and clothing to spend all day shopping in the increasingly prosperous Quyang City...
Now, what he said to his father, "If you want to be safe and sound"... This is pure blackmail!
Xiong Wuliang raised his head and noticed Zhong Hua's speechlessness, so he spread his hands and spoke righteously——
"Although the area north of Yushan is called Yue State under Si Jing's rule, within a year or two it will be the territory of Qi State."
"Look at this money, food and goods, if Si Jing keeps it, it will be an advantage for Qi State. It is better to help me, a poor son-in-law."
Xiong Wuliang was shocked when he learned that King Yao's name was Si Jing.
Siyi, who was squatting in Quyang, probably never imagined that his father was doing well in the war-torn Yue Kingdom, and now he was the king of the Yue Kingdom.
Although he is a puppet who can be annexed by Qi at any time, he is still a serious king.
Is there any problem with the rich father-in-law helping the poor son-in-law?
no problem!
Zhong Hua felt numb all over when he saw his master's shamelessness.
