Just when Zhao Kuo captured Zhushan, Ju Xin took his own soldiers and flew towards Huashan. At this moment, Ju Xin looked particularly embarrassed. In the end, there were no more than one warrior following him.
Thousands of people...Due to the sudden outbreak of civil strife, the Yan people killed each other, resulting in very bad results. This is due to the unique military system of the Yan State. Because of the manpower, the Yan State always
He likes to call the barbarians on the frontier to fight for him.
The State of Yan never thought of itself as a barbarian because he was a noble with the surname Ji, which was different from Zhao and Qin. Therefore, after conquering Liaodong and other areas, the methods he adopted were completely different from those of Zhao and Qin.
Roads are established at the same level as counties. The difference is that Hu people are usually appointed as the main officials in the roads. They are given titles, allowed to use cattle and sheep to replace the same amount of grain and cloth when paying taxes, and encouraged their
Intermarry, allowing them to retain their own festival customs.
They were also encouraged to learn laws and writings, and the schools were open to them. If there was a famine, Qin would also rush to provide relief.
The Zhao State has no rules, but it takes great care of the Hu people in the fortress, and even sends a large number of troops to protect them, such as Li Mu. Li Mu is in Yunzhong, and what he protects is the herdsmen here. Among the cavalry under Li Mu,
Most of them are local herdsmen... But in the Yan State, the situation is different. The Yan people look down on the Liaodong people and treat them completely as conquerors.
The Yan people required them to pay taxes with millet, cloth and other materials. However, these people did not produce food or cloth. They were herders. This meant that every time it was time to pay taxes, they had to take their cattle and sheep to follow them.
Merchants exchange grain and cloth, and the moral character of the merchants... well, they will deliberately lower the prices of cattle and sheep, raise the prices of grain and cloth, and seek huge profits from it.
If the merchants of the Qin State dared to do this, they would have been dragged out and executed long ago... But the Yan State did not despise the merchants. These merchants were related to the local officials, and they colluded with each other. If they encountered anyone who disobeyed, they would
So they sent troops to attack them... Moreover, the Yan people did not allow these Liaodong people to serve as officials, and conscripted them in large numbers to perform corvee service, build city walls, and fight... completely regardless of whether these would affect their normal life.
So who is the barbarian? Who is more civilized?
Previously, they gathered 100,000 barbarians as their army.
Because they did not trust them, they sent nobles from the royal capital to command them. These nobles continued to insult these Liaodong people, which caused greater conflicts and caused the Yan army to suffer a major defeat in Bairen. After that, Yan
The country began to change its military system again. They dispersed these Hu people and used Yan nobles as upper and middle-level officers, hoping to achieve the purpose of controlling the army.

Unfortunately, this is not a good way to resolve conflicts.
The ambitious people of the Yan State, such as Li Fu and Jiang Qu, all saw this problem. The Yan State conquered a large area of land in Liaodong in a short period of time and gained a large population. However, the problem was that the time was too short.
These people did not become Yan people... Jiang Qu once wanted to change this situation and stabilize Yan's rule in Liaodong. Unfortunately, after he left Yan, his policy was banned.
The soldiers of Yan State, except for those Liaodong people who were forced to fight, even the Yan people living in other places were also dissatisfied. Because of the unique position of Yan State, many people here suffered from cold and hunger, and Yan people
The country's reforms have always focused on fighting wars with the country and attracting military talents. In terms of internal affairs, they are still very backward. This has made the official system in Yan's country chaotic, the nobles are corrupt, and the administrative efficiency is low.
Under such circumstances, the State of Yan has been building the Great Wall and has never stopped doing corvee labor. From King Yan Cheng to the present, the State of Yan has been using manpower to build the Great Wall of Liaodong every year to stabilize its rule here... Zhao
When Kuo first heard about this incident, he just shook his head and sighed: The weather is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the people... The internal conflicts in the Yan** team are fierce.
When Zhao Kuo once fought against the Yan State, he allowed the soldiers of the Yan State to seize his generals and ask for surrender. Such behavior was rare because most of the noble generals were very opposed to this, even if they were
The enemy... This is called the following crime. How can the soldiers attack their own generals? The army of Yan State does not have the rewards of Qin State. They will not get rewards for killing the enemy, nor are they like Zhao State and Wei State.
A sense of identity with the country.
Many people in the Yan ** team are Liaodong people who have been constantly bullied. These people are forced to rush to the battlefield, hoping that they will have the idea of defending the Yan Kingdom?? This is a joke.
Zhao Kuo has a great reputation in the Yan State. His fame comes from several aspects. First, he defeated Li Fu, and then he promoted the fire kang to the Yan State. Later, it was his horse service book, which is worth mentioning.
Yes, Zhao Kuo's "Ma Fu Shu" contains a lot of sayings about equality and that kings should treat everyone equally. The Yan people were very interested in these ideas... In Jiang Qu's time, Jiang Qu set up schools in various places to teach.
Hu people, and their textbook is "Ma Fu Shu"...
The appearance of Zhao Kuo triggered the resistance of these Liaodong barbarians in the Yan government, as well as some down-and-out Yan people. Zhao Kuo would not kill them, so why should they continue to sacrifice their lives for the enemies who bullied them?
"The monarch will treat his subordinates like his own brothers and feet, and his subordinates will treat him like his own heart. The monarch will treat his subordinates like dogs and horses, and his subordinates will treat him like a passerby. The monarch will treat his subordinates like dirt and grass, and his subordinates will treat him like a robber and an enemy."
, this sentence has spread rapidly in the Yan State since the last battle of Bairen. Some people say that this is what Confucius said, and some people firmly believe that it is what Ma Fujun said.
However, no matter who said this, they all felt that it made sense.
Many of the soldiers who surrendered to Zhao Kuo, including the Hu people from Liaodong, even took the initiative to join the Qin army to fight against the coalition forces.
After Zhao Kuo appeased the surrendered soldiers, he learned a lot of news about the Yan Kingdom from their mouths. They complained: "Every time the King of Yan holds a banquet, the local officials come to snatch our cattle and sheep, saying that they want to sacrifice them."
To the king, they did not give money, saying that this was our opportunity to serve the king of Yan... In the cold winter last year, most of our livestock froze to death. My brother took people to find the officials of Yan State, hoping to alleviate the problem.
Some taxes...but the officials said that my brother was leading the rebellion and killed him."
"We have to build the Great Wall every year, endless construction...They only give us very little food every day, and the officials want us to use cloth to buy the food...Secretly deducting...We will sue
Officer, this is of no use, everyone who reported it was executed..."
"The Yan people asked us to attack other areas outside Liaodong... Their people followed behind and asked us to fight hard, but we didn't get any benefits!"
"Those merchants, they asked me to trade him a fertile mare for three pieces of cloth!"
Zhao Kuo just listened attentively and nodded from time to time. Wang Lu, who had been listening to the interpreter, couldn't help it anymore. He said: "How could such a thing happen? Officials colluded with merchants? Embezzlement
Food and grass?" The Qin generals around were a little confused at this moment. Such behavior could be hacked to death twenty times in Qin! When the Qin generals proudly said that Qin treated the common people and the barbarians
After many policies, the eyes of the surrounding Liaodong people became clear.
“When will you attack Liaodong??”
Zhao Kuo gathered his troops and immediately left Zhushan, heading towards Zheng County.
Ju Xin, who was escaping from Huashan, happened to encounter the vanguard of the coalition forces who came to rescue him. The vanguard was none other than Wei Qing of Wei State. When he saw the old general galloping in the distance, he knew in his heart that he was still
Arriving a step too late, Ju Xin got off the horse out of breath. Wei Qing hurriedly supported him, and Ju Xin said tremblingly: "It's Mr. Ma Fu... Mr. Ma Fu is here."
Wei Qing was stunned, quickly looked at the soldiers around him, and then shook his head at Ju Xin.
Ju Xin also reacted quickly and said: "There are many defeated troops. Please send someone to summon... I will go see Lord Xinling." Wei Qing nodded, then ordered the army to stop and sent scouts.
Searching for broken troops, Ju Xin saw Lord Xinling in the middle of the army. Seeing him, Lord Xinling said, "It seems that after repelling me, he went to attack Zhushan non-stop? Well, the casualties
how is it?"
"Most of my army surrendered...less than 10,000 people escaped..."
"What??", Lord Xinling's eyes widened. If Pang Gong said this, he would still understand. After all, he knew Zhao Kuo's position in Zhao people's hearts, but Yan people, why would Yan people do this?
What? Ju Xin took a deep breath, and then said worriedly: "Please retreat quickly... If you don't retreat, it will be too late... When Ma Fujun appeared, I thought I would be defeated, but I didn't expect that the army
They actually mutinied directly... If even Yan’s army did this, what about Zhao’s army?”
"No, we have to leave here before the news spreads."
Seeing Ju Xin's frightened look, Wei Wuji suddenly laughed, "Hahaha~~" Ju Xin was startled by him, looked at him hurriedly, and asked angrily: "What are you doing?
Are you laughing at me?" Wei Wuji shook his head and said, "Why are you so frustrated? This time, we won a great victory, burning the enemy's food and grass supplies, and causing Wang Lu's army to lose its combat effectiveness.
..After we return to the army, we will have an army of 300,000 people with sufficient food and grass to fight against Qin’s exhausted troops..."
"Our war with Qin has just begun... You don't have to be so panic... In fact, I have always been looking forward to fighting against my friend... Now is the best opportunity. I will defeat him.
His army, I will capture him, tie him back, and let him drink with me all day! If he dares not to drink, I will lead my troops to attack Xianyang!" Lord Xinling said proudly, and then told the plot
Xin said: "Quickly gather the broken troops. Let's return from the original route and attack Meng Ao with General Jingyang!"
The coalition forces quickly retreated, and Lord Xinling led the army back to the river bank. The army once again rushed to the east of the river through the waterway, and continued to advance from the east of the river toward the Yewang... At this time, Zhao Kuo also quickly recovered Huashan and other areas.
There are still some granaries left here that have not been completely captured. Wang Hao successfully delayed their capture of the Huashan granaries, while Zhao Kuo continued to lead his troops and set off towards Hangu Pass.
At this moment, Meng Ao led his soldiers along the river bank and quickly marched towards Hangu Pass. Sure enough, the two sides formally met near Ye Wang. Lord Xinling suddenly came out with his army and launched a siege on Qin's army on the opposite bank.
Meng Ao hurriedly stopped his advance, detached his soldiers, and crossed the river to support them. While the two sides were fighting, Jingyang also saw through Meng Ao's weakness, and the army covered him up. It took three days to successfully defeat the Qin army.
He captured the seriously injured general Zhang Tang and then continued the pursuit.
Meng Ao was constantly crossing the river and fighting with Lord Xinling. He also understood Lord Xinling's intention. He wanted to involve himself and attack him from the front and back with the 200,000 troops in the Central Plains. Meng Ao immediately made arrangements.
After Jingyang reached the defense line and commanded the war in both directions at the same time, he directly threw himself into the battle. The Qin people were forced to fight on both sides of the river, and at the same time they had no food and supplies. This made the Qin army quickly fall behind.
Go downwind.
The war was very unfavorable to the Qin people, and Meng Ao's food supplies were interrupted... During the journey, the soldiers actually began to starve, and the morale of the coalition forces was high again. This was their first head-on confrontation.
After repelling the Qin people and even reaching the vicinity of Hangu Pass, even the Koreans who saw their homeland became extremely brave and kept attacking. Jingyang also cherished this opportunity very much.
It had been a long time since he had been so ruthless in front of the Qin people. With a desperate attack, Lord Xinling surrounded the Qin people on the other side of the river and refused to annihilate them all. He deliberately seduced Meng Ao to come to the rescue, and kept
Maintaining suppression, they also sent boats to conduct small-scale attacks to constantly harass Meng Ao's main army. The two sides fought on both sides of the river for three days. The Qin State gradually became exhausted and suffered a large number of casualties. Jingyang continued to attack
The Qin army was approaching and retreating all the time.
Meng Ao had already seen the trend of defeat. Fortunately, he was not a hesitant general. He made a decisive decision and immediately abandoned the army on the other side of the river. He began to organize a large army and retreated calmly. He succeeded by setting up multiple lines of defense.
After retreating to Hangu Pass, he immediately hid in Hangu Pass and began to rest. Wei Wuji cooperated with Jinyang to swallow up nearly 100,000 Qin troops on the other side of the river, severely damaging the Qin people, and then continued towards
Advance in the direction of Hangu Pass.
The coalition forces showed off their power outside Hangu Pass and continued to send troops to attack the surrounding cities. Those Qin people who were defeated on the other side of the river were also tied up and pulled to Hangu Pass for execution. This became a new way for the coalition forces to demonstrate against the Qin people.
Way.
Pang Gong looked at all this and his face became even paler.
