Chapter 5829: Retreat

PreviousBack to directoryNext
As Lin Haoming broke through the Chu army, he quickly divided the army into several groups to attack the three counties respectively.

Lin Haoming only had 100,000 people at hand, and he was divided into three groups. It was really incredible, but what was even more incredible for the Chu State was that when the three counties of Wu County saw the Yue army coming, they had no power to resist, and even many Wu counties were unable to resist.

The local people took the initiative to support the Yue army, and the situation in the three counties of Wu completely deteriorated.

The situation in the three counties of Wudi also forced Qu Xiong to increase his efforts to move north, but Jiang Heng's defense was extremely tight. Although he was at a disadvantage everywhere, he was only at a disadvantage.

Just when the Chu State was having a headache for the three counties of Wu, something even more fatal for the Chu State happened. The Wei army, which had originally been crossing the border, suddenly appeared in the northwest of the Chu State. Without any greeting, they directly

He went south to attack the Chu State. In an instant, the Chu State faced three enemies.

Under such a situation, Chu State could no longer face enemies on three sides and had to completely abandon Wu State's three counties and shrink its strength to deal with enemies in the north and northeast.

Just when Lin Haoming occupied the entire three counties of Wu State, it was already summer, and Lin Haoming also stopped. The Chu State shrank completely, and the Wei army stopped at the price of agreeing to cede nine counties in the northwest. At the same time, the Chu State sent envoys to the great

Xia actually proposed the restoration of Wu State.

As soon as this proposal came out, the people of the Wu State who originally supported the Yue Army immediately stood against the Yue State. This was what Lin Haoming had expected early on. At the same time, Lin Haoming had to admire that there were talents in the Chu State and they ceded the land.

Give it to the State of Wei, and then withstand the attack of the State of Yue, and here the State of Wu recovers, and can use Daxia to suppress the State of Yue.

Lin Haoming had already prepared a countermeasure for this situation. Sun Zan, who had just returned from Wei, immediately went directly to Daxia with his envoys.

The front lines of both sides seemed calm, and each had famous generals who could not swallow up the other. Moreover, the reason why the Wei State was satisfied with the land of nine counties was because he knew that the Yue State could not be allowed to take greater advantage. There was a feud between the Wei State and the Yue State.

Over in Daxia, after some negotiations, Prince Rong of Daxia personally came over with the descendants of Queen Wu who were in exile in Daxia.

When Lin Haoming saw this, he was very happy and gave up all the places east of the Dongyi Mountains. He also said that since the people of Wu State expected the restoration of Wu State, he would not really occupy the three counties of Wu State. The reason for the invasion was that this place was originally

It's the land of Chu.

As a result, the original tension between Wu and Yue suddenly subsided. The people of the entire Wu State were quite grateful to the Yue soldiers, because the Yue soldiers were very disciplined and completely different from those Chu thieves. Although they occupied the city, they

No offense to the common people. As for the fortresses and cities built for many years in the Dongyi Mountains after withdrawal, they can only accept it. They cannot send troops. In the end, there is nothing. Even Daxia Kingdom feels that it cannot be done.

Too harsh.

So after autumn, half a year after entering Wu State, the Yue State army returned to Yue State, and the surrender of the three counties of Wu State was not completely in vain. Yue State had to go to Chu State to cede Chu State Fenghu from the beginning.

There is a hundred miles of land all around you.

Fenghu is also a lake in the Pingjiang River Basin, much smaller than Anyang Lake. However, after the Pingjiang River converges with Fenghu, it divides into several tributaries and flows into Hengshui. If Fenghu is in hand, it will have absolute power over Chu State.

Initiative, after all, the Pingjiang River Basin is the only way to enter Chu from north to south. Otherwise, we have to cross mountains and ridges, and heavy equipment cannot cross mountains and ridges at all. Taking the hinterland of Chu State is like a dream.

Regarding this matter, the whole Chu State was extremely angry, but on the other side of Daxia, since the Yue State had withdrawn from the three counties of Wudi, it was natural that the Yue State could not suffer a loss. In other words, even if there was complete hatred between Chu and Yue,

Fenghu was to be ceded, and all this was planned by Lin Haoming. At the same time, Sun Zan was sent to Daxia as an envoy, and it was decided with his words.

After Prince Rong was surrounded by Lin Haoming and entertained all the way back to the Yue Kingdom, he immediately followed him south to the Chu Kingdom to fulfill this task. However, no matter how unwilling the Chu Kingdom was, in the face of Daxia's defeat,

The pressure could only hand over Fenghu to Yue.

When the Vietnamese army entered Fenghu, they directly regarded Fenghu as the largest military camp, with a hundred thousand troops stationed here.

Before winter came, Prince Rong went back with a smile on his face. This time he went south and picked up a lot of things, so it was not a wasted trip.

Just after returning to the capital of Daxia, I heard news from the south. The Chu State launched the Battle of Fenghu in the winter. The Vietnamese army was unable to fight the Chu navy and was driven out of Fenghu by Qu Xiong.

.

This incident made the entire Yue Kingdom furious, and they immediately sent Sun Zan to Daxia to find an explanation, but Daxia didn't pay much attention to it.

Seeing this, Sun Zan deliberately spread the news in the capital that your majesty cannot distinguish between loyal and treacherous people. After all, to the people of Xia State, Chu State was a southern barbarian who did not keep faith, while Yue State adhered to the way of a gentleman, occupied the old territory of Wu State, and also allowed

Since the state of Wu has been restored, it is easy to distinguish between loyal and traitorous people.

Under such public opinion, the Xia State could only order to reprimand the Chu State, but the Chu State did not pay attention to it, which damaged the prestige of the Xia State.

Seeing that Daxia was helpless towards the Chu State, the Chu people who were originally in the Wu State also became more active.

Originally, the three counties of Wudi had been occupied for decades, and the Chu State also moved a large number of Chu people. Originally, the Chu people were considered superior people here. Now that the situation has reversed, the Chu people of Wu are naturally unwilling to accept it.

After the Yue Kingdom left, the Wu Kingdom did not have many soldiers and horses. Although the Wu Kingdom's newly recruited army was claimed to be 80,000, it actually had little combat effectiveness. In essence, its military discipline was ruined. After the restoration of the Wu Kingdom, the army that was originally in charge of various states and counties

The officials were all replaced by Wu people, but unfortunately these people were in charge worse than the Chu people. Starting from the withdrawal of troops from Yue, the people of Wu found that life was actually more difficult than before. Throughout the winter, chaos broke out in various places in Wu.

The king had no ability to control the situation, and even had to ask Daxia and Yue to send troops.

The state of Wu was like this. Lin Haoming only needed to send tens of thousands of troops to take back the state of Wu. But even so, Lin Haoming still had no intention of swallowing it. He even secretly sent people to help the King of Wu suppress various places, because Chu

The country did not send troops, and Lin Haoming did not intend to send troops. As for Fenghu, which was originally occupied, it had actually been planned to be given to the Chu State early on. For this reason, Wang Jiangman, who cherished his reputation at the time, deliberately replaced Jiang Heng and shouldered the infamy of being defeated.

Of course, Wang Jiangman is now old and doesn't care about this. Twenty years ago, he would never have taken the blame. Of course, as a result of taking the blame, Wei Qian would naturally treat his descendants favorably.

Under such a situation, it is the New Year again. Lin Haoming's adopted son Ning Lin is already sixteen years old, and it has been sixteen years since Lin Haoming came to this world.
