After Haojing was abandoned in Zhou Dynasty, the Qin people built their new capital Yongdu. The distance between Yongdu and Luoyi was only 800 miles.
But these are two worlds.
The great river of Mount Wei is a natural barrier. Under the order of Luo Xuangong, the Qin people built Hangu Pass themselves, and then the Qin people were blocked to the west of Weihan for hundreds of years.
Yongdu.
The envoy of Chu State spoke eloquently, "My lord, my king has gone north alone to the Central Plains to remonstrate with the emperor.
Chu and Qin have been together for two hundred years. My king hopes that you can also be a loyal minister of Bangzhou and jointly safeguard Bangzhou's destiny. "
These words made the monarchs and ministers of Qin feel uncomfortable.
Heading north alone?
Going north alone with 200,000 guards, right?
Loyal minister?
The loyal Qin people cannot see the hypocrisy of you Chu people!
So he pondered: "Doctor, you are right. Qin should be a loyal minister of Zhou and go to the Central Plains to pay tribute to the Emperor of Zhou. This is what the princes should do."
The Chu envoy was not surprised. This was Uncle Qin's inevitable decision.
As soon as I saw the news of the chaos in the Central Plains, and then looked at the relatives and nobles in the hall, whether they were young masters or lords, their eyes were full of fire.
Ling Yin Xiangcheng's conclusion that "the Qin people want to go eastward is exactly the same as the Chu people want to go north" is extremely correct.
There was a sudden uproar in the Qin Palace, and all the Qin princes could not suppress their inner joy.
The Qin people have been west of Weihan for hundreds of years. Many people here have never left the land of Qinchuan. Every day when they open their eyes, they are fighting with Xirong, and when they close their eyes, they are still Xirong.
They wanted to go to the Central Plains to see how prosperous the school and culture of Luo State was, how prosperous Linzi of Qi State was, and whether the women of Wu and Yue were really that gentle.
"Your Majesty, the key to our army's march eastward is Hangu Pass. The natural dangers of Mount Wei are already insurmountable. Plus Hangu Pass, even if the Qin people are brave, they may still have to bleed under the majestic pass."
This is already the consensus of the Qin people. The east side of the Weihan Passage is in the hands of the Jin State, and the west side is in the hands of the Qin State. However, the east side is truly one man in charge, and no one can open it.
The envoys of the Chu State lowered their heads slightly when they heard this and said nothing. This was the original intention of the Chu State. The Qin State was strong. If the whole country was to seize the pass, the Jin State would have to take at least one-third of the pass even if it held Hangu Pass. The army was transferred to Hanguguan.
But Uncle Qin's expression was not so severe, and he smiled slightly and said: "A hundred years ago, even if the Qin people lay down millions of corpses, they would not be able to pass Hangu Pass, but now as long as the Qin people are brave, they will definitely be able to break through.
Doctor of the Chu State, please return to the Chu State and report to the King of Chu that in the name of Shaohao, the Qin State and the Chu State will pay tribute to the emperor together in Luoyi. "
Although the Chu envoys were a little surprised by Uncle Qin's confidence, they just thought that the Qin State had new siege equipment. After all, facing a pass like Hangu Pass, it was not surprising to figure out what kind of siege equipment they had.
As soon as the Chu envoys left and returned to the back hall, the eldest son Gao immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Chu people want to use the blood of the Qin people to pave the way for them to enter the Central Plains. Can countries still form alliances?”
The ministers who came to the back hall all frowned. This was a conspiracy. If the Chu State was unwilling to borrow the passage, they could only fight with blood. This was the best opportunity for the Qin State.
There used to be a true friendship between Qin and Chu. When the Ji Jiang Alliance was unprecedentedly powerful and both sides were overwhelmed by the Central Plains, they joined hands to advance together. However, with the decline of the Central Plains, the two sides have long been in the same bed but have different dreams. Everyone has their own agenda.
However, the existence of the Jin State meant that Qin and Chu still had the same interests, so the existence of an alliance was necessary.
There was a sneer on Uncle Qin's face, "It's a pity that Chu State is going to be disappointed. Have you forgotten it?
This new Hangu Pass was built by the Qin people. It may have undergone some changes in the past five hundred years, but the basic structure will not change.
If it were more than a hundred years ago, Hangu Pass would naturally be the most majestic pass in the world.
But fifty years ago, the river began to change its course. By the time the army preparations were completed, it would probably be winter. At that time, there would be enough traffic under Hangu Pass for several vehicles to move parallel, which would be extremely convenient for our army to attack.
Moreover, it is extremely difficult to break through dangerous passes, but it is very easy to satisfy greedy people.
Is the blood of a hundred thousand soldiers more important, or the countless gold, silver and jewels? "
The officials of Qin State naturally understood what the monarch meant, and they all showed expressions of surprise. They did not expect that the monarch hid it so deeply.
Uncle Qin said with great enthusiasm: "Come east!
This has been the long-cherished wish of the Qin State for hundreds of years. It requires the strength of all the Qin people. In addition to defending the city of Xirong, it also recruits the Qin people in the entire Guanzhong land.
Go to Luoyi to meet Emperor Zhou and let him see that there are more than just Luo and Jin in this world.
Qin is also a loyal minister of Zhou Dynasty. There are hundreds of thousands of warriors loyal to him in the western border area to defend the royal family! "
As soon as Uncle Qin finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the palace, full of joy.
…
"Wu Guo!"
"Chu State!"
All the small countries and tribes in the entire south are trembling, and the tribes record the tragedies that have happened on this land.
The final result of the confrontation between two big countries is the annihilation of a bunch of small countries.
Now these two countries are far more powerful than before, with more armies spread across the mountains and on the rivers.
Countless armies passed through the valley. The birds were awakened by the march and soared from the treetops. Just as they were about to fall down, another army appeared in a continuous stream.
The head end has entered the depths of the valley, and the tail end is still under the foot of the mountain, like a long snake coiling in the mountains.
On the river, countless boats were confronting each other. This was the only big country in the world that had a navy, so naturally it would not give up its advantage.
The Chu State and the Wu State were fighting on three battlefields at the same time. The fighting on the river was very fierce, but it was nothing compared to the battle between Yingshui. This was the most important place that the Wu State and the Chu State fought for. Heavy.
Nearly 250,000 troops from both sides lined up along Yingshui, each holding their strongholds. The war here never stopped.
The shallow river beach was filled with red blood mud, and countless pebbles were washed red. The corpses were washed directly down the river. For fear of causing epidemics, these corpses would eventually be burned.
"I think the aquatic plants here will be very beautiful next year, but I don't know if their rhizomes will be bright red and bloody?"
"If you catch fish and shrimp in the lower reaches of the river next year and think of me, it must be fed by my blood. Eat it as if I were accompanying you."
The soldiers of the Chu people were humming the songs of their hometown, and the Wu people were also humming those easy-to-understand poems. They liked the repeated poems very much.
The sun was rising high again, and countless soldiers lined up, waving flags, and a strong evil spirit condensed on the battlefield. Then countless soldiers charged like a tide, and finally became entangled together, like a meat grinder. The soldiers' lives were consumed.
It is not uncommon to see a tank disintegrate during the charge, and the soldiers on the vehicle fly up, and finally fall to the ground and have their brains exploded.
Most of them fell to the ground amid bursts of arrow rain. Crossbows are always the most lethal, especially for soldiers without armor.
This entangled and desperate war has nothing to do with strange tactics. It is simply a competition between the elites of the soldiers on both sides.
The kind of battle involving hundreds of thousands of people, but a quick victory.
Usually one of the parties has an unparalleled general, leading an extremely elite army, which directly defeats the opponent's front team, or directly completes the beheading, and ultimately causes the entire army to collapse.
This means that a thousand troops are easy to obtain, but a general is difficult to find.
Or the commander-in-chief of a certain party made a fatal mistake and made a flaw in the dispatch of the army. As a result, military orders were blocked and the entire command system was directly confused.
Except for these few cases, most battles will eventually end up in a struggle for logistical supplies.
In Gusu City, as the intensity of the war continued to escalate, the entire Wu Kingdom began to revolve around the war. "The monarch, the armor supported by the Luo Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom have arrived, a total of three thousand sets!
The Luo Kingdom also sent a large number of arrows. Many of the arrows recovered from the corpses these days have been damaged and their power is getting weaker and weaker. Now that there are new arrows, they can hit the Chu Kingdom hard. "
Wu Hou heard this and said happily: "Okay, Luo Hou is really trustworthy. These days, the Chu army's offensive is getting stronger and stronger, and the armor is damaged faster and faster. If it weren't for Luo Guo's support, the casualties would have greatly increased."
As allies, although Luo and Jin could not send people, as extremely wealthy countries, they could still support the armor.
Moreover, there are too many people on various battlefields now, and what is lacking is life-saving armor. Basically, after a few fierce battles, the protective effect of many armors will be greatly reduced.
"Your Majesty, Luohou also sent a letter!"
Wu Hou immediately took it, looking at each word in the letter, his hands were trembling.
Luo Zhi's words stuck in his heart. If he knew that this was predicted by Ji Lingjun, the ancestor of Luo Kingdom, he would probably be even more horrified.
"The Marquis of Wu personally initiated it.
The Chu State launched a large army to attack Wu. This was expected. The Wu State was powerful and was enough to deal with one of Chu's three divisions.
Marquis Wu must remember that the Chu State came with great power and paid a huge price.
The consumption of food and fodder alone for an army of half a million is an immeasurable amount, as well as the pensions for those who served in the army after they died in battle.
With such a large expenditure, if he cannot obtain new land and countless goods, who will make up for his losses?
If he didn't get the rewards of the 200,000-strong army for the Eastern Conquest of Wu from Wu, where could he get them?
This is enough power to destroy the Wu State. Please be careful and don't take chances. The Chu State came to destroy the Wu State.
The whole Zhuxia was involved, either alive or dead!
This is a war that no one can stop.
Hope we will be the final winner!
Wu Hou, if you are afraid in your heart, just pray to King Haotian Su who is above the nine heavens.
King Su’s spirit is in the sky, and Bang Zhou’s destiny lasts for tens of thousands of years! "
Wu Hou couldn't help but shudder and murmured: "King Su's spirit is in the sky, and Bang Zhou's destiny is eternal."
From the fuse to the entrance due to the situation of various countries, there are so many chapters, and the main drama is finally about to begin.
