King Qin quelled the chaos

When Duke Wen of Jin succeeded to the throne, civil unrest broke out in the Zhou royal family, and Zhou Xiang's younger brother Zhou Shudai had an affair with the Queen Kui of Zhou Xiang, who was the daughter of the Northern Di nomadic tribe, and Zhou Shu led a joint Northern Di army to invade the zhou capital, and king Xiang of Zhou turned to the Qin and Jin states after fleeing. Duke Wen of Jin, following the advice of Zhao Wan and Hu Yan, did not join forces with the State of Qin, and alone led the Jin army to Qin Wang, defeated the Zhou Shu belt and the Northern Di army and captured Zhou Shu With, and escorted The King of Zhou Xiang back to Beijing before the Qin state. King Xiang of Zhou was greatly moved and gave Hanoi and Yangfan to Duke Wen of Jin. The reputation of the Jin dynasty was greatly enhanced.

Save Song refuses Chu

In the fourth year of the Jin Dynasty, the State of Chu united with a number of small vassal states to attack the State of Song. Sima Gongsun Gu of the Song Dynasty was a close friend of Duke Wen of Jin's uncle Hu Yan, and when Duke Wen of Jin was in exile, he also received help from the State of Song, and Gongsun Gu rushed to the State of Jin to request military assistance. Hu Yan suggested that Duke Wen of Jin first conquer the small states of Cao guo and Wei Guo, which were subordinate to the Chu state, and attract the rescue of the Chu army, and the crisis of the Song state was naturally solved, which was the strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao. Unexpectedly, the Jin army captured the State of Cao and defeated the State of Wei, and the Chu army was not deceived and blindly attacked the State of Song. Duke Wen of Jin was momentarily caught in a dilemma, not to fight with the Chu army, the Song state may destroy the country, and the Chu army is at war, and king Cheng of Chu once had a favor with himself. In the end, Duke Wen of Jin heeded Xianxun's advice and distributed the lands of Cao Guo and Wei Guo to the Song State, and the Chu State did indeed withdraw its troops.

Battle of Chengpu

The State of Jin rescued the State of Song and sent troops to get the most benefits, not only offended the State of Chu, but also the State of Qin and the State of Qi were also looking at each other, unwilling to make peace with the State of Jin, and the State of Jin faced isolation and also faced the conquest of the State of Chu. The general Xianxun then made a strange plot, first asking the Song state to exchange land for the qin state and the state of Qi to send troops to resist chu, and then using the cao state and the wei state land to compensate the song state. The conflict between the State of Qin and the State of Qi, in order to compete for the land of the State of Song, deepened, and had no choice but to side with the State of Jin. The Chu general Zi Yu led an army to attack Jin, Jin Wengong in order to repay Chu Cheng's favor, took the initiative to "retreat and retreat" to withdraw from the battlefield, Chu general Zi Yu did not follow the oath of forgiveness to destroy Jin, the result was the Jin state to lure the enemy to go deeper, was divided and surrounded and defeated, the Chu state was defeated, chu general Zi Yu soldiers committed suicide.
