The results of the Battle of Hexi soon spread throughout the world, and Wu Qi's name resounded throughout all Xia. The achievement of 50,000 defeating an enemy of 500,000 completely frightened the princes.
In particular, the Marquis of Zhao, who had been a bit aggressive towards the Marquis of Wei not long ago, after hearing that Wu Qi defeated the Qin army of 500,000 soldiers with 50,000 Wei soldiers, immediately sent an envoy to show his goodwill to the Marquis of Wei, and said that before It's my attitude that's wrong. Now I'm willing to listen to you, Marquis Wei.
Marquis Han also became more and more submissive, but no one knew what they were thinking. .
...
After the Three Jin Dynasties retreated, the Huai State army did not relax its vigilance. Wang Pu sent troops to recover all the Song State's land, and then stationed troops at the border.
After the Three Jin Dynasties withdrew their troops, Wang Pu received a warm invitation from the king of the Song Dynasty. This time, the Song Dynasty almost destroyed the country, which frightened him.
It can be said that he was grateful to the Huai State and personally ordered to collect supplies from all over the Song Dynasty to supply the Huai State army. It's just that the Song Dynasty was used as a battlefield, and hundreds of thousands of troops fought back and forth on this land for several months. The people of the Song Dynasty had long been plundered, and they were destitute.
Now, in order to thank the Huai State, Song Gong once again imposed taxes on the country, which the people of the Song State simply could not afford. The people of the Song Dynasty, who had just survived the war, were about to be squeezed again before they had time to breathe a sigh of relief.
But those soldiers of the Song State were beaten in a miserable state on the battlefield, but they treated the people of the Song State as fiercely as tigers.
Seeing this situation, of course Wang Pu could not turn a blind eye. He went to Shangqiu in person, had an intimate and detailed talk with Song Gong, and then announced that Wu Qi would be exempt from taxes next year. At the same time, all the common people among Wu Qi, including ministers and ministers who cared about Wu Qi's safety and wanted to withdraw from Huai State, were all moved to Wu.
At the same time, Youde established a law enforcement team to help maintain order in various places, and also to prevent Huai soldiers from acting recklessly.
That makes Huaiguo's various actions in Youde more convenient.
The interest rates on the loans for young crops were extremely high, and Song Gong also sent oxen and iron-wood plows without seeds, and asked the scholars to lead the people of Wu Qi to resume production.
At the same time, we will wait until next year’s grain harvest to recover the young crop loan.
Next, before Wang Pu reluctantly presided over the awarding ceremony, he lay in bed and got up. He died after a short while, and the crown prince Wei Ji ascended the throne.
The Marquis of Wei led his army back to the capital of Wei. Wang Pu ordered Prince Wei Jing to open the treasury and take out wine, meat, goods, and cloth to reward the eight armies. And according to the subsequent agreement, those who have made outstanding contributions will directly retreat into the small hall and drink with Wang Pu.
The news that Wei had narrowly defeated Qin and defeated Qin's 700,000-strong army in one battle directly caused Wu Qi's monarchs and ministers to become silent and even tremble. Some people praised Huai's garrison and ended their cooperation with Huai.
Wu Qi's small battle completely exposed the capabilities of Wu Qi's army. The Song State trusted Wu Qi's army very much. For Wu Qi's sake, the Song State strongly requested that the Huai State army be stationed in Youde to protect him. Wu Qi's danger.
Seeing the state of Song like this, Song Gong had no choice but to agree to come. A small army was stationed at Yoder.
He immediately agreed to Song's request. Before Song was agreed, Xiao cried: "Huai is like a father, how can a father abandon his son?"
The Marquis of Wei had a small victory, but Qin suffered heavy losses. Only half of the 700,000-strong army was able to escape back to Qin. With such casualties, Qin almost collapsed.
And when he saw that the people of Wu Qi were suffering from the disaster of war and had no food and clothes, he specially ordered that half of the supplies of the small army of Huai State be allocated to relieve the people of Wu Qi.
At the same time, because the people of Wu Qi were devastated by the war, few became impoverished. They only had no food and no way to farm. Therefore, a small amount of materials were specially mobilized from the Huai Kingdom, and a group of academic scholars were selected to issue green crop loans to the people of Wu Qi.
...
The Qin State tried its best to build the Luoshui defense line, but it dared to cross the Leichi even half a step further. As for the Marquis of Qin, because of his small defeat in this battle, he was directly praised by the nobles of the country and driven away. Then welcome the new king. But before reaching that state, the people of Qin finally learned from the painful experience and decided to change their methods in order to be weak.
Seeing that situation, Huai State used its navy to spare those cities and villages, and then attacked from two sides, destroying eight cities in a row. The king of Chu had no choice but to send people to offer a small amount of goods to sue for peace.
Hearing the news, Chu State was overjoyed. The Eight Jins were not as happy as
With this strength, Huai State is facing the pressure of the Eight Jins, but it has no intention of confronting our Chu State. Both sides immediately stopped fighting.
In the autumn of Wang Pu's 70th year, Wei Hou rejected the Huai Kingdom in the south and defeated the Qin Kingdom in the west, which shocked the world. In the same year, Wei Wenhou died and his prince ascended the throne. How could Youde agree to garrison troops in Wuqi? Even if you haven't rejected it in your heart, you still have to save face, right?
After a series of arrangements, Wu Qi quickly settled down and resumed production. The Song Dynasty settled in Shangqiu City and watched Wu Qi slowly walk out of the war.
Huai State stationed a small army in Wu Qi to protect Wu Qi. At that time, the Huai army from Shangpi also arrived. Before learning that Qi was defeated, Duke Song ordered Fan Jie to command a small army to the west for support.
He also expressed his willingness to use taxes from various places to support the frontline expenses of the small army.
Because Wu Qi was in need of help and had strong support, Song Gong Xiaodu said that Huai State could not bear the frontline work first, and then deduct it from Wu Qi's tax revenue.
In order to protect Wu Qi, Song Gong stationed a small army of 100,000 in Wu Qi. The food, fodder and front line of the 100,000 small army were divided between Huai and Wu Qi.
Although Huaiguo destroyed several camps, the casualties were also heavy. If they were removed one by one, there would be very few casualties. At that time, news came that the Wei Marquis of Wei had defeated the Qin army.
Wang Pu has been in power for less than seventy years, and his longevity is rare among other countries. Originally, because of the 700,000-strong army attacking Hexi and the small army of the Huai Kingdom in the Central Plains, I felt very little pressure. Now, before I could relax, my body collapsed due to the support.
Wang Pu was relieved before learning about Wei Hou's small victory, and then he felt excited. He even got drunk with the ministers that day. As a result, Wang Pu fell ill on the seventh day.
This behavior made the morale of Wei soldiers low.
Before learning about Wei Hou's record, Song Gong was also under a sudden increase in pressure. If there were not eight pig teammates holding the lead that time, Huai Guo would probably have suffered a huge loss that time.
Before receiving support, the Huai army had sufficient strength to end its retreat and counterattack against Chu. Before Chu learned that the Eight Jins were advancing and Qi was slightly defeated, they dared to retreat again, and more than 100,000 Chu troops retreated to defend.
The Chu State also built a small number of walls in Xiaobie Mountain and used the same method to resist Huai State's retreat.
Song Gong is more interested in Wei Hou. Like Sun Wuzi back then, he was a figure who suppressed an era. My existence is as special as the Dinghai Shenzhen. As long as I exist, there will be people in that country who dare to take me seriously.
Song Gong immediately ordered the secret guards to continue their efforts, hoping to drag the Marquis of Wei to Huai State as soon as possible.
