<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="110" > Author: Idle Lesheng</h1>
The spring of 505 BC was a sad spring, the Chu state was attacked by the State of Wu, the monarchs of the State of Chu went into exile, and the people of the State of Chu also suffered the pain of subjugation. And when the spring of the yin tide gradually faded away, the hot summer song came, and good luck finally began to tilt towards the side of the Chu people. When the generous Qin people finally decided to emulate the great cause of The Duke of Qin Mu and the Three Ding Jin Jun, and sent troops to rescue Chu, The Yue monarch Yun Chang in the far south also seemed to have discussed it well, taking advantage of the void and sending troops to harass the rear of the State of Wu, causing a lot of trouble for the crown prince Bo who remained in Gusu.
And when Prince Bo was desperate for the trouble of YueGuo, in June of that year, Wu Guo's fierce general FuFu ran into an even greater trouble at Yiyi (沂邑, in present-day Zhengyang County, Henan).
The Tiger and Wolf Division of the Qin State finally arrived, a total of 500 chariots, with a strength of about 37,500 troops (Spring and Autumn Military System, a chariot with 75 soldiers), under the leadership of Shen Baoxu, through Shanggu (present-day Shangxian, Shaanxi), Xiangyang (present-day Xiangfan, Hubei), south to Jingmen, and the Chu army led by Zixi and Ziqi who came with the country met in Jidi (present-day Tongbai County, Henan), and soon there was a small-scale encounter between some of the main forces of Yiyi and Fu shu, and then the two armies set up a position in the Yiyi area, and the big war broke out.
Fu Guo did not know that there was still the Qin army behind this Group of Chu Troops, so he did not take this team seriously, since he entered the Chu Realm, he had been invincible for several months and had not been defeated, for him, these defeated generals of the Chu State were all garbage in the garbage, vulnerable. The only thing that bothered him was that these Chu forces were like undead cockroaches, guerrilla everywhere, how to fight could not be finished, and if they continued like this, when would they be able to go back to enjoy the wind and moon of Yingdu.
On the other hand, Pu Zheng, the prince of Qin Shuai, squinted at the densely packed Wu army in the distance, and said to The Prince of Chu Shuai: "We are not familiar with the tactics of the Wu army, you deal with them more, or you go first, when the enemy is defeated, my Great Qin army will go up again, and it will win a big victory!" ”
Zi Qi secretly scolded a slippery head, but his mouth repeatedly said yes, he understood that now he was begging others instead of others to ask him, and now the solution was only to swallow his anger, and everything was important to the overall situation.
The sun rose and the drums on both sides shook the ground. But the sky was dusk, and there was fog, Fu Guo's heart suddenly flashed a sense of foreboding, he shook his head, trying to try his best to shake away this uncomfortable feeling, just at this time, the drums of the two sides were beating more fiercely, and in the blink of an eye, the Chu army had rushed to kill them one by one.
What about it, fuck it, I wasn't afraid of the 200,000 Chu army back then, or was I afraid that thousands of remnants of the army would be defeated? Brothers, follow me!
Five thousand Warriors of the State of Wu shouted and rushed into the Chu army, the two sides clenched together, and the fight began.
Not long after the fight, Fu Guo felt that something was wrong, the combat effectiveness of this Chu army was not as bad as before, the battle was very fierce, and the ace main force in his Great Wu army was actually only on par with the other side.
Hun Egg, my husband is the first warrior of the Wu Kingdom, how can he be underestimated by the Chu people? He stomped his foot and drew his sword, and commanded behind his back: "All the soldiers listen, and charge with me!" ”
Before the words could be heard, three hundred pro-army troops lit up their swords in unison, followed fu Zhi, and rushed into the enemy position.
In the middle of the battlefield, the two sides were glued, and suddenly after the force of this life rushed and killed, the Chu army gradually could not resist and began to lose.
The husband let out a long roar, and as a pioneer, the sword passed by, and there was no one who could unite. Wu Jun's morale was suddenly boosted, and he shouted and began to counterattack the enemy, really one to ten, sharp and unstoppable!
Chu people, you learn a little, this is called the real army! Fu Ji sheathed his sword and smiled proudly, as if victory was already in his pocket.
Just at this moment, a fierce wind suddenly blew from the north, and suddenly, the battlefield was dark, the sand was flying away, the sun was dark, and the two sides could no longer fight, so they had to temporarily collect troops. The drums stopped, the shouts stopped, the horseshoes stopped, and there was a dead silence on the battlefield, only the sound of the howling of the wind.
Fu Ji was annoyed and feasted, Ahem, count you Chu people lucky, otherwise you will be stewed in a pot.
After about a meal, the wind gradually subsided and slowly stopped. However, the enemy did not run as the husband expected, the earth-shaking drum noise sounded, and on the far horizon, the black pressure was all chariots, and looking at this posture, the enemy was afraid that there were tens of thousands of people.
Fu Guo was shocked, where did the Chu army get so many chariots, was it a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general? Looking at it again, the flag and uniform on the opposite side were completely different from those of the Chu soldiers, and they were suspicious, when suddenly an outpost rushed towards him, shouting in his mouth: "Report, the Qin army is coming, there are probably hundreds of chariots!" ”
Fu Guo's head was suddenly blank, Qin Guobing? What kind of Dongdong, how can there be Qin Soldiers, where they came from, I don't know at all!
At this time, the Wu army's side had been rushed up by the chariots of the Qin State and divided into many places, and there were scuffles everywhere, and the husband hesitated, should I fight with them to the death, or should I retreat for the time being?
This hesitation was unbearable, and the disciples and soldiers who were proud of the husband could not resist and began to retreat, no matter how much he drank, he could not save the decline. A pro-general with dozens of pro-army soldiers and retreated, came to Fu Ji's side, and said urgently: "The Qin army is strong, the general is leaving quickly!" ”
Fu Wei was not willing, and shouted hysterically: "What are you afraid of, what are you afraid of, at the beginning of the 200,000 Chu army, we all rushed forward, and now tens of thousands of Qin troops, are we afraid?" ”
No one paid any attention to him, everyone was scrambling for their lives, wu jun's five thousand elites suddenly turned into refugees fleeing the wilderness, ran away in the blink of an eye, and finally left with fu Guo,000 of the most loyal cronies. Thousands of Qin troops rushed up like a tide, surrounded them in groups, and shouted in their mouths: "Capture the enemy general alive!" Don't let them go!"
Fu Shu sighed, "It's over, my name is ruined." Brothers, break through with me! ”
These more than a hundred Wu Army warriors suddenly burst out with an unparalleled desire to survive, and rushed to the enemy desperately, slashing and slashing, all of which were killed by the enemy. The Qin Army had never seen such a magnificent scene before, and was horrified by it.
Fu Ji saw his brothers who were born and died fall into a pool of blood, and the grief was extreme, he looked up at the sky and the small universe exploded, and he rushed into the stunned Qin soldiers like crazy, with a body of scars, and broke out alone.
I don't know how long later, the next quarter moon jumped out of the thick clouds, illuminating the battlefield on both sides of the river, and also illuminating the road for the Wu army to flee...
Fu Guo's 5,000 elite Wu army was severely damaged by the Qin-Chu coalition army in the north of the Chu State, and most of its troops were damaged, and its remnants under the leadership of Fu Kuo actually withdrew to the old home of the Wu Kingdom in one breath, and this tiger, which was once the fiercest tiger in the Wu Kingdom, had now completely degenerated into a poor hello kitty.
This is a bit confusing, the fierce general Brother Fu Once used five thousand soldiers to dare to charge the 200,000 Chu army, now how can more than 30,000 Qin troops beat them to the ground? The answer is simple:
One, morale. Obviously, when the Wu army first entered the Chu territory, the Shipland landed for hundreds of miles, successive battles were successful, and the difference between its morale and the Chu army led by the grass bag was not a little bit different. However, now, the Wu army has been corrupt in the fertile land of the Chu state for more than half a year, the body has been soaked and hollowed out by wine, and now all the sharpness is consumed, coupled with the fact that the Chu army will be victorious, and the Qin army is again feeling its loyalty and courage, under this and other circumstances, the five thousand Wu army will certainly not be the opponent of the Qin-Chu coalition army that is several times larger than its own.
Second, the terrain. The place where the Battle of Baiju took place was the hilly area of Wutou chuwei, which was where the Wu infantry could best exert its mobility advantage. Now the Wu army was engaged in a battle with the Qin and Chu combined forces on the Henan Plain, so that the advantages of the large-scale chariot group of the Qin State in charging were revealed, and in any case, in the Spring and Autumn Period, the military vehicle was the most powerful war machine in the plain area.
Third, the commander. At the beginning of the Battle of Baiju, the actual military commander of the Wu army was Sun Wu, a military genius of the Shengzu Of the Bing family, and whether from the overall grasp of the battle situation or the actual strategy and tactics, the commander of the Chu army, Nangwa, and he were not at the same level at all. However, the commander of the Qin-Chu coalition army is now a Chu general who has been in battle for a long time and has been fighting in adversity for more than half a year, while the commander of the Wu army is a brave and resourceful husband, and when he fights, he naturally makes a judgment.
At the same time, the Chu resistance organization under the leadership of Zixi also launched a large-scale strategic counteroffensive against the Wu invaders, and the Chu general Bo Yao rushed to attack, only to be attacked by Shen Zhuliang and Xue Yan at Junxiang (present-day southwest of Sui County, Hubei), and seeing that the entire army was about to be destroyed, Wu Zixu's reinforcements arrived at the right time to rescue Bo Yao.
By the way, this Shen Zhuliang was the son of the famous Chu general Shen Yinshu, who was later sealed in Ye Yi (Note 1), so he was also called Ye Gong, that is, the Ye Gong in the idiom "Ye Gong Good Dragon". Contrary to everyone's established impression, Ye Gong was actually a generation of famous ministers of the Chu State Zhongxing, which was crucial to the military and cultural revival of the Chu State after the Warring States, and was quite famous at that time, and even Confucius, who was famous at the top, came to Yecheng to exchange governing strategies with him. In addition, in 479 BC, the Rebellion of the White Duke occurred in the State of Chu, ye Pingding rebelled, and made great contributions, so he served two terms, and concurrently served as the Ling Yin and Sima of the State of Chu, and was also a military and political power, which was unprecedented in the history of the State of Chu. However, Ye Gong was not greedy for power, and only four years later he gave up the position of Ling Yin to Gongsun Ning and the post of Sima to Gongsun Kuan, which is the famous "Ye Gong Rang Xian" in history, which I think is much more meaningful than "Ye Gong Good Dragon".
Note 1: It is located in the old county of Twenty-Eight Li, south of present-day Ye County, Henan. In addition, note that "Ye" should be pronounced shè here, according to the "Chronology of Princes and Princes Since the Jianyuan Dynasty", Sima Zhen's "Index": "Ye Yinzhao, the name of the county, belongs to Nanyang." ”
In short, from then on, the war situation began to fall on the side of the Qin-Chu coalition army, and in July of that year, the Chu generals Zixi, Ziqi, XueYan, Shen Zhuliang, and the Qin generals Gongzi Pu and Gongzihu and other good Han all the way triumphantly marched from all directions to the Wu army's base camp Yingdu. At this time, King Wu also went out, and he ordered the Wu army to divide the fortresses of tun and confront the Qin and Chu allied forces, and prepare to face them head-on!
Lu Lu wanted to have a head-on duel, but the supreme commander of the Qin-Chu coalition army, Zi Qi, did not want to be so anxious to act, he confronted the Wu army on the one hand, but secretly divided his troops and detoured to secretly attack one of Wu's allies, Tang Chenggong, who had just made a small fortune in the Battle of Broken Yin, had not waited to enjoy enough, and was defeated and killed, and another ally Cai Guo Cai Aigong heard the news, frightened, and hurriedly surrendered to the old master Chu Guo.
At this point, Wu Guo's 30,000 marines not only suffered more than half of their casualties, but also became a lone army entering the Chu Realm, and the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to Lu Lu. However, heaven still seemed to think that Lu Lu's head was not big enough, and in September of that year, the fierce general brother-in-law saw that his elder brother Lu lu was getting worse and worse in the Chu kingdom, and even established himself as king in the State of Wu. As soon as this Fuguo King ascended the throne, he immediately sent troops to block the return of Lu Lu, and at the same time colluded with the Yue kingdom to prepare to attack The Prince Bo who was trapped in Gusu City.
This was all the bitter fruit of Lu Lu's own brewing, and didn't he also kill his younger brother Wang Zhi and establish himself as king? This is called a kind of learning.
The news reached the Chu kingdom, and King Wu was horrified, and hurriedly led the army back to China to suppress the rebellion, good fellow, this is still necessary, but don't chu guo did not fish, his hometown was given to him.
On the other hand, King Fuguo was waiting to attack Gu Su with the Vietnamese army, and as a result, the Vietnamese army did not wait, waiting for the return of the country to desperately attack Lu Lu, this is good, The King of Fu Guo attacked others unsuccessfully, he was first attacked by Fu Lu and Prince Bo, and in two strokes, King Fu Guo was defeated, and had to flee to his enemy King Chu Zhao, King Zhao, who was now short of manpower, saw that the fierce general brother who had defeated his own army of 200,000 people came, and was very happy, so he sealed it in Tangxi (northwest of present-day Suiping County, Henan), for the Tangxi clan, Since then, Fu Kuo has happily become a courtier of his former sworn enemy Chu Guo, and his life has also been full of ups and downs. According to the Records of the Eastern Han Dynasty Ying Shao's "Customs and Customs", Fu Kuo's son in the State of Wu did not participate in the rebellion, so he was pardoned by Lu Lu and renamed Fu Yu, probably migrated to the Liaodong area during the Qin and Han Dynasties, became buyeo, and finally developed into the famous Korean Baekje royal family.
At the time when King Wu returned to China to suppress the rebellion, Wu Zixu and Bo Yao were still in the Chu State, and they were not reconciled, and they always felt that they still had the opportunity to turn defeat into victory. Soon, Wu Zixu led the Wu army to defeat the Chu army at the Battle of Yongliang, but before he could be happy enough, the reinforcements of the Qin army arrived and regained the fruits of victory, the Wu army was defeated, retreated to the land of Yunxian (yin mí) (in present-day Yun County, Hubei, Yueyang area), but was burned by the Chu army, Wu Zixu defeated his son-in-law Zhixi (present-day Xiangfan City, Hubei), but without him gaining a firm foothold, the Qin-Chu coalition army took advantage of the victory to catch up, and the Wu army suffered heavy losses.
Everyone found that, like Wu Baochu's "Battle of Baiju", the battle for the restoration of the Chu State also belongs to a classic example of "continuous battles", the difference is that this time it is the turn of the Wu army to be chased behind the ass.
Speaking of which, the Qin people are still quite generous, and at the beginning, The Duke of Qin Mu set the Jin Dynasty and helped the Jin State gain hegemony for hundreds of years; now it is replaced by the Qin AiGong's great righteousness to help Chu, drive out the invaders of the State of Wu, and restore the society of the State of Chu. Therefore, although the hegemony of the Qin state in the Spring and Autumn Period was not obvious, its reputation was not bad.
At this point, Wu Zixu understood that the situation in the Chu State was irreparable, so he had to decide to lead the army back to the State of Wu, and he comforted himself: "Since the struggle for hegemony among the masses, I have also achieved the ultimate and should be satisfied!" ”
Looking back on the past, the years of Yingdu are like a big dream.
In this way, Wu Jun returned to the State of Wu with a large number of gold, silver treasures and children stolen in the Chu Kingdom, as well as countless glory and regrets, and left King Chu Zhao with an empty and miserable city of disaster, Yingdu.
At this point, the enmity and resentment between Wu and Chu had finally come to an end.
But it's just a paragraph, and it doesn't end there.
