Chapter 195 Garrison in Song State

The result of the Battle of Hexi spread quickly throughout the world, and Wu Qi's name resounded throughout the Xia Dynasty. The victory of 50,000 men against an enemy of 500,000 men 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 warriors in one battle, immediately sent an envoy to show his goodwill to the Marquis of Wei, and said that before

It was my attitude that was wrong. Now I am willing to listen to you, Marquis Wei.

Han Hou 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 the army 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 State to supply the Huai State army. However, the Song State 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 State had already

After being plundered and plundered, it can be said that they were completely 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 could not afford. The people of the Song State who had just survived the war were about to be squeezed again before they could 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 the Duke of Song, and then announced that the Song Dynasty would be exempt from taxes next year. At the same time, the common people in the Song Dynasty would be exempted from the Song Dynasty, regardless of the safety of the Song Dynasty.

All the officials and officials from the Huai Kingdom who withdrew their troops moved to Wu.

This war of the Song Dynasty completely exposed the incompetence of the Song Dynasty army. The Duke of Song did not trust the Song army. For the sake of the safety of the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty strongly requested that the Huai army be stationed in the Song Dynasty to protect the Song Dynasty.

The security of the Song Dynasty.

He also expressed his willingness to use taxes from various places to support the logistics expenses of the army.

How could Wang Pu agree to garrison troops in the Song Dynasty? Even if he had already agreed in his heart, he still had to save face, right?

He immediately rejected Song Gong's request. After Song Gong was rejected, he cried loudly: "The Huai Kingdom is like a father, how can a father abandon his son?"

Seeing Song Gong's behavior, Wang Pu had no choice but to agree and stationed a large army in the Song Dynasty.

And after seeing that the people of Song State were suffering from the war and had no food and clothes, they specifically ordered that half of the supplies of the Huai State army be allocated to relieve the people of Song State.

At the same time, Wang Pu established a law enforcement team to help maintain order in various places, and also to prevent Huai soldiers from acting recklessly.

In order to protect the Song State, Wang Pu stationed 100,000 troops in the Song State. The food and logistics of these 100,000 troops were divided into half by the Huai State and the Song State respectively.

Because the Song State was in dire straits and was unable to support it, Wang Pu generously said that the Huai State could bear the logistics first and then deduct it from the Song State's tax revenue.

At the same time, because the people of the Song Dynasty were devastated by the war, many of them became impoverished. Not only did they have no food, but they were also unable to farm. Therefore, a large 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 the Song Dynasty.

The interest rates on these young crops were extremely low, and Wang Pu also asked people to send oxen, ironwood plows, and seeds, and asked these scholars to lead the people of Song Dynasty to resume production.

At the same time, we will wait until next year’s grain harvest to recover the young crop loan.

After a series of arrangements, the Song State quickly settled down and began to resume production. Song Gong settled in Shangqiu City and watched the Song State quickly emerge from the war.

The Huai State stationed a large army in the Song State to protect the Song State. At this time, the Huai Army from Xiapi had also arrived. After learning that the Qi State was defeated, Wang Pu ordered Fan Jie to command the army to support westward.

After receiving support, the Huai army had sufficient strength and began to counterattack Chu. After Chu learned that the Three Jins had withdrawn and Qi was defeated, they did not dare to attack again, and more than 100,000 Chu troops retreated to defend.

The Chu State also built a large number of fortresses near the Dabie Mountains and used the same method to resist the Huai State's attack.

Seeing this situation, Huai State used its navy to spare these cities, and then attacked from both sides, destroying six cities in a row. The king of Chu had no choice but to send people to offer a large amount of goods to sue for peace.

Although the Huai State destroyed several camps, the casualties were not small. If they were to pull them out one by one, the casualties would be huge. At this time, the news came that Wu Qi of the Wei State had defeated the Qin army.

Hearing this news, the Chu State was overjoyed. The Three Jins had such strength. Faced with the pressure from the Three Jins, the Huai State still had the heart to confront Chu State. The two sides immediately stopped fighting.

The news that the Wei State had greatly defeated the Qin State and defeated Qin's 500,000-strong army in the first battle directly made the kings and ministers of the Song State become silent and even tremble. No one opposed the Huai State's garrison anymore and began to cooperate with the Huai State.

This made Huai State's various actions in Song State more convenient.

After learning about Wu Qi's record, Wang Pu's pressure also increased sharply. If it weren't for the three pig teammates holding him back this time, Huai Guo would probably have suffered a lot of losses this time.

Wang Pu became even more interested in Wu Qi. Like Sun Wuzi, he was a figure who suppressed an era. His existence was like a needle that fixed the sea. As long as he existed, no one in this country would dare to despise him.

Wang Pu immediately ordered the secret guards to continue their efforts, hoping to drag Wu Qi to Huai Kingdom as soon as possible.

Wu Qi won a great victory, and the Qin State suffered heavy losses. Only half of the 500,000-strong army was able to escape back to the Qin State. With such casualties, the Qin State almost reached the point of subjugation.

The Qin State tried its best to build the Luoshui defense line and did not dare to cross the Leichi. And because of the defeat in this battle, the Qin Hou was directly opposed by the nobles of the country and was driven away. Then they welcomed a new king. After reaching such a state

, the people of Qin finally learned from the painful experience and decided to reform to become stronger.

Wu Qi led his army back to the capital of Wei. The Marquis of Wei ordered the prince Wei Jing to open the treasury, take out wine, meat, goods, and cloth to reward the three armies. According to the previous agreement, those who have made outstanding achievements will directly enter the main hall and drink with the Marquis of Wei.

This behavior boosted the morale of Wei soldiers.

After Wei Hou learned about Wu Qi's victory, he was relieved, and then he felt excited. He even got drunk with his officials that day. As a result, Wei Hou fell ill the next day.

The Marquis of Wei has been in power for fifty years, and he is one of the few countries with a long life. Originally, because half a million troops attacked the Hexi region and the Huaiguo army in the Central Plains pressed down on the border, he was under great pressure. Now that he has relaxed, his body is also supporting

I couldn't help but collapse.

Next, after the Marquis of Wei reluctantly presided over the award ceremony, he became bedridden and died soon after, and the crown prince Wei Ji ascended the throne.

In the autumn of the fiftieth year of the Marquis of Wei, Wu Qi 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.
