"I heard that Wei Wuji was in Han Dynasty, and with the warriors of Zhao and Wei, they defeated generals like Wang Ling who were good at leading troops, so that the Qin army could only be stationed outside Xinzheng and could not defeat the countries. Ying Hou sent me a letter and said: The war is urgent, please complete what I ordered as soon as possible."

"Father Zhong, the people we arranged have not yet sharpened the weapons, fed the horses, and oiled the chariots. If we proceed in a hurry, we may fail."

"With this matter, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, Wei Wuji cannot continue to stay in Handan. Let's execute it."

"only."

............

The Chu people like to wear red clothes, tall crowns, exquisite birds embroidered on the clothes, and wave their sleeves, as if they were proud phoenixes. The Chu people have a different kind of pride, always full of confidence in themselves, and have different romance. The Chu people like to sing. Whether they see beautiful scenery or meet a woman they like, they all like to sing a song and express their hearts.

The Chu people have a strong personality, but they are not as rigorous as the Xianyang people. The Chu people's life is very broad, but they are not as elegant as the Handan people.

The Chu State has a vast territory, and people living on this land always sing songs in different tones, farming and sweating. Occasionally, the merchants' ox carts passed by the road, and the merchants would smile and sing with them. Unfortunately, the war that lasted for two years destroyed everything, and many Chu people died in this war. Chendu, Shangcai, Chengyang and other extremely prosperous and busy places are now only a piece of ruins.

There are no living people here anymore. Not to mention humans, even dogs or birds can’t be found.

After several battles between the Qin people and the Chu State, this place became a forbidden zone for life. Of course, except for these frontline areas, in other areas of the Chu State, the singing of the people could no longer be heard. The old people walked tremblingly on the cultivated land, watching the cultivated land covered with weeds because no one was cleaning up, bent down and wanted to pull out the weeds, but he was already very old and he couldn't even move forward after throwing down his crutches.

The old people looked at these abandoned arable land and cried. Even if they had been busy for a year, they could not finish it. The cultivated land they planted was only thirty or forty acres, which was not enough to pay taxes. Even if they did not pay taxes, it was not enough for them to use for a year. Looking at the skinny grandson around them, the little guy did not understand the difficulties of his father. He just pointed to his mouth and said, "Hungry."

The old man clenched his hand into a fist, slapped his face hard, and shouted in a collapsed state: "You eat me... and eat me."

Young people were either on the battlefield or on the road. Chunshen Jun summoned a lot of wars for this war, and the rest of them also wanted to help transport supplies. In order to support the front line, Chunshen Jun collected several taxes... The Chu people died and injured countless people. Unfortunately, due to heavy rain, many cities in Chu State encountered floods, and more Chu people threw themselves into the river directly, and they could no longer survive!

The Chu soldiers could not relax. They either went to join the army or took out their own food reserves to support the battlefield. The soldiers who lost their disciples, lost their retainers, and almost lost everything were put on their brightest clothes, drove themselves, stood up, and their long sleeves were flying in the wind, and the scholars sang: "The descendants of Emperor Gaoyang, my emperor said to Boyong~~"

Some scholars also took out their own family business to help the affected people. Looking at these people who have been tortured to the point of being numb and murmured: "I sigh so hard that I can hide my tears, mourn the hardships of people's livelihood..."

At this moment, some people appeared everywhere. These people were genuine Chu people, saying that they fled from Shangcai. They told the story of the king's refusal to discuss peace with the Qin people regardless of the lives and death of the people. They also said that the nobles he saw in Shouchun, all the food that helped the people was eaten by them. After that, they talked about the origins of various countries. We are not Chu people at all, but our country was destroyed by Chu.

When these remarks came from the people to the ears of noble people, some noble people chose to kill themselves... while others directly took out their own property and distributed it to the nearby people. When the people were so grateful, they said seriously: I want to bring my two or three sons to achieve great things.

In September of the fifth year of King Chu, the Zuosi family, who served as Duke of Dongling County, gathered people to rebel. For a time, they even managed to settle several cities. After that, rebels emerged one after another in various parts of the Chu State. Some people were unable to survive. Chunshen Jun ordered them to send people to support the battlefield and send food, but they had nothing. If Chunshen Jun failed to fulfill Chunshen Jun's order, they would be executed. They could only angrily pull up the army and kill Shouchun.

Some people just think that this is the best time. The war between royal and public clans in Chu has never stopped. There are many noble rebellions in Chu. Because of its unique political system, the domestic vassal state is very powerful, and even now they still have private soldiers. For these vassal states, since the Spring and Autumn Period, the Chu kings of all dynasties have been trying to weaken them, and there are many wise men who have carried out reforms, but they cannot be said to be very successful.

The previous one who failed to try to rebel against the old nobles but was Qu Yuan.

The State of Chu was really in chaos, and rebels emerged everywhere. They often raised troops in the name of attacking Chunshenjun. The King of Chu was furious and could only order Jingyang to divide his army to suppress the rebellion in the country. Because of the rebellion, the delivery of food to Jingyang was no longer as smooth as usual. Jingyang's army was short of food. Poor Jingyang was overwhelmed and could only ask a partial army to attack the rebels.

Bai Qi did not miss this chaotic opportunity. Taking advantage of Jingyang's lack of food to divide his troops, Bai Qi ordered Meng Wu to attack the Chu army fiercely. The two sides fought a lot. Bai Qi calculated that Wei Wuji would come to rescue him. He set up an ambush himself and waited for Wei Wuji's reinforcements... Sure enough, Wei Wuji mistakenly thought that Bai Qi was leading the army to attack the Chu people and marched quickly. He encountered Bai Qi's ambush on the way. The Three Jin coalition forces were defeated and retreated. Without the support of the Three Jin coalition forces, Jingyang was defeated again.

Jingyang gathered the remaining troops and stationed between Anling and Yangxia in order to better communicate with the Sanjin coalition forces. The situation was clearer. Bai Qi was stationed in Yangdi, Wei Wuji was stationed in Xinzheng, and the Chu army was stationed in Anling and Yangxia. It can be said that Jingyang was still very smart. He directly transferred the battlefield from Chu to another country, which could be regarded as reducing the losses of Chu. Bai Qi captured 40,000 prisoners in this battle.

Soon, the high-pitched voices of the Qin officials came from Yangdi again. When they talked about the horse-coat books, the captured Zhao people were stunned. Bai Qi ordered to treat these prisoners differently. The captured Zhao soldiers enjoyed the best treatment, and they ate, drank, and lived in different places than other prisoners. The Qin officials were also very enthusiastic about them, and often asked about the deeds of Ma Fujun, and combined with the books in their hands to analyze them for everyone.

In the captive camp, the Zhao man raised his head and said with a smile: "Because of Ma Fujun, the two and the three sons saved their lives."

The Wei people, who were tied up and couldn't eat enough, looked at the Zhao people jealously and cursed angrily: "Ying Kuo is a villain who is a thief, and the Zhao people are all shameless men!"

Suddenly, the Zhao man rushed up and pressed the Wei man to the ground and beat him.

The prisoner-of-war camp became chaotic. Bai Qi, who was standing on the high slope, looked coldly at the chaos in the prisoner-of-war camp, and watched the Qin people help Zhao people beat the captured Wei people. Then he nodded and said, "Okay, let these people go."

These prisoners left Bai Qi's camp and rushed towards Xinzheng. Even the Chu people were no exception. The Chu people had no idea where their main force was. Along the way, conflicts broke out repeatedly. The Qin people gave the Zhao people some weapons to them for self-defense. Therefore, during the fight, the Zhao people killed many unarmed Wei people. Even with the Chu people, the Wei people could not defeat the Zhao people with weapons. They could only endure humiliation, gritted their teeth, and came to Xinzheng without saying a word.

Only the Koreans were so scared that they were trembling all over, watching the battle between the two sides.

Wei Wuji stood at the head of Xinzheng City, took out his wine bag and drank it. Then he looked at the soldiers standing at the gate of the city and walked into the city one by one after verification. Mao Sui stood beside him. This Mao Sui was a disciple of Pingyuan Jun. He was eloquent and courageous. So Pingyuan Jun recommended him to the King of Wei and became the commander of the Wei army this time. He noticed Wei Wuji's tightly frown brows.

"Young Master isn't happy?"

"I don't know..." Wei Wuji shook his head. These people survived and returned to Xinzheng. This should have been a happy thing. But the problem is that Bai Qi let them go was not out of kindness. He was Zhao Kuo's friend. Zhao Kuo once told him that the army of benevolent people. In the eyes of generals such as Wei Wuji, the so-called army of benevolent is actually an army that is good at attacking the heart, which can influence the enemy and weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness...

Wei Wuji already knew what Jingyang had happened. Bai Qi was killed by some defeated soldiers and was about to collapse. Wei Wuji sighed. These people were afraid that they would not be able to go to the battlefield again in a short period of time. He was thinking about it, and suddenly heard someone in the city screaming. He was stunned, and suddenly dropped his wine bag and rushed down the city wall. In Xinzheng, the Wei people who returned to the city were fighting with the Zhao people.

"The Zhao people colluded with the enemy!"

"They killed our people!"

When Wei Wuji came here, there were many casualties on both sides. As soon as Wei Wuji arrived here, the generals around him immediately came out to control their troops and quickly suppressed the storm. Whether it was the Zhao people or the Wei people, after seeing Wei Wuji, they seemed to have found their backbone. The Wei people trusted their son very much. Xinling Jun was very famous in the Wei Kingdom.

Of course, the Zhao people would also believe in their commander, so both sides came to complain almost at the same time, saying their grievances.

Wei Wuji listened for a moment, and then his face became very ugly.

A general who is good at encircling and annihilation has now become a master of attacking the heart. He only treats prisoners differently, which has increased the barriers between the Zhao and Wei coalition forces. Even Wei Wuji is still helpless. If he punishes Zhao, then Bai Qi will definitely make a big fuss because of his identity as a prince of the Wei Kingdom. If he does nothing, then the King of Wei will not allow himself to serve as the commander of the coalition forces...

Wei Wuji narrowed his eyes, and suddenly, he laughed, shook his head, and said loudly: "This is Bai Qi's strategy to attack the heart. Er Sanzi can't see it, but I can understand it. He deliberately treats the captives of both sides differently, just to let the soldiers of Zhao and Wei kill each other. He can also take advantage of the chaos to capture Xinzheng..." Wei Wuji looked at everyone seriously and asked: "How can Er Sanzi do such a thing that makes friends sad and enemies happy?"

Wei Wuji turned the topic from punishment to Bai Qi's trick, accused Bai Qi of his crimes, and persuaded everyone not to engage in internal strife. Then he ordered the generals to treat the returned prisoners well.

However, the matter was not over. Some people from Zhao said: Wei Wuji was originally the prince of Wei, and he wanted to help the Wei people bully us.

In Daliang, someone told the King of Wei: Wei Wuji helped the Zhao people deliberately kill the army of Wei, because he wanted to weaken the strength of Wei and facilitate him to lead the army of Zhao to attack Wei in the future.

Wei Wuji soon discovered the chaos in the army. When the Wei people met with the Zhao people, their eyes were full of anger. Because Wei Wuji did not erupt, the conflicts that were forced to be suppressed would be even more terrifying when they erupted. Wei Wuji had to admit that Bai Qi became even more terrifying. Even if Ma Fujun is here, he might not be Bai Qi's opponent, because Ma Fujun lost his only advantage in front of Bai Qi.

Of course, Ma Fujun's benevolence and righteousness is true benevolence and righteousness, while Bai Qi's benevolence and righteousness is just to better kill people.

He was still killing people, but his sword was not covered with blood.

Qin had an outstanding general, an excellent prime minister, and a king who could appoint them and control them. Therefore, Qin was not afraid of any enemy. Fan Ju's several strategies successfully made all the countries confused, and Bai Qi also seized this opportunity and directly turned the disadvantages on the battlefield into advantages, making the coalition forces of the countries dared not leave the city again.

At this time, Zhao Kuo was busy relieving the victims.

After more than a year of hard work, the most important grassroots official system of Wei Wuji's reform gradually took shape. With the full support of Zhao Kuo, opponents from all over the country did not dare to take action anymore. As Wei Wuji thought, Zhao Kuo was a powerful supporter of the reform. He ordered Dong Chengzi to arrest those who persecuted the new officials and questioned them. With Zhao Kuo's participation, King Zhao could no longer protect his confidants.

Zhao Bao and others dare not act excessively when facing Zhao Kuo. Of course, they still opposed the reform, and this did not change. They would ask King Zhao to accuse the disaster of the reform all day long, but King Zhao always smiled and asked them to find Zhao Kuo. Ma Fujun was responsible for these things. What does it have to do with me?
