After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 437 Brilliant Victory
After being hit this time, Zhao Yang seemed to have figured out a lot of things, and his whole body began to recover gradually.

After seeing this scene, You Liang also breathed a sigh of relief, so he nodded and said.

"My lord's consideration is that I will immediately get people ready to set off."

Now they have only a small part of their military resources, and they can only return to Jin successfully if they take this opportunity to enter Qi immediately and plunder food along the way.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yang led the army to set off immediately, and they were naturally worried that Sun Wu would take advantage of this opportunity to pursue him.

As for the armies of Lu State and Wei State, they can't take care of them at all now. Sun Wu learned that the Jin army had already marched towards Mount Meng, and he sighed slightly. After all, there were still not enough troops, otherwise, the Jin army would have to fight this time. It is impossible to successfully leave.

However, it was beyond Sun Wu's expectation to be able to achieve such brilliant results. Afterwards, he made a decisive attack and began to sweep across the country of Lu. Basically, no one would be his opponent.

Because the news of the coalition's defeat has spread, people with a little brain are now thinking about the way out. With their inferior strength, the Han army was able to defeat the coalition in one fell swoop. Such a record is close to a myth.

No one dared to face Sun Wu's soldiers at this time. Most of the cities were waiting for the wind to surrender. Although there were some people who resisted, it was just a flash in the pan. At least those soldiers were not willing to die in vain.

At this time, the cavalry led by Mengdi had already arrived, and they were overjoyed after learning the result of the battle. After inquiring about Sun Wu's battle process carefully, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart, and saluted Sun Wu.

"If Mr. did not preside over this battle every time, if I were to come instead, we might not be able to achieve such brilliant results. Mr. should be the first in this battle, and those folk awareness should be rewarded heavily."

"Our efforts for many years have finally seen the results. If they hadn't stood up and resisted, the battle might not have progressed so smoothly. It really is true that those who have attained the Dao will help more than those who have lost the Dao."

After Sun Wu heard this, he quickly waved his hand lightly, and said with a humble look on his face.

"However, it is a pity this time. More than half of Jin's army successfully entered Mengshan Mountain. They did not do their best, and still did not achieve the plan we set at the beginning. I am still not capable enough."

Naturally, Meng Di knew that this was a self-effaced word, but the unwillingness in it was still very clear, so he said it.

"Winning such a big victory is already very rare, but this time they didn't achieve all the results, but it has already hurt the vitality of the Jin country. Not to mention, their defeat this time will already shake the world's princes. "

"I think it won't be long before the vassal states will come to join us, and this time the Jin army entered the Qi state, which is of great benefit to us. It can consume Tian Chang's strength and let the Qi state continue to be in our country. Under control."

"What's more, now that the old land of the Lu Kingdom has been taken by us, Luhou is still in Qufu, and the next step is to see how the Mengsun family chooses. If my prediction is not bad, as long as the time comes, we will send a letter in the name of Luhou. Give him the order."

"Zhongsun Heji will definitely obey. At least in this way, the state of Lu will no longer be a threat to us from now on. It is just a piece of fish on the chopping board at the mercy of others."

At this time, Shi Huang stepped forward in front of Meng Di with a face full of shame, bowed his hands and said.

"My lord, my subordinates have something to say. Although they won a big victory this time, Mrs. Nanzi was also assassinated and died. This subordinate cannot escape the responsibility for this matter. Please punish me, my lord."

Seeing that his face was very ugly, Mengdi knew that he was sad, so he sighed and said.

"I can't blame you for this kind of thing. Take it as a lesson. You must be careful in doing things in the future. When encountering things, you must not act too rashly. Otherwise, the people around you will be in danger."

At this time, Mengdi was also very sad. Although he had always kept a proper distance from Nanzi, the spy network that Nanzi had established for a long time also gave him great help.

Unexpectedly, something happened at such a time when it shouldn't happen. It was really unpredictable. Thinking of this, Meng Di sighed softly, and after thinking about it for a while, he opened his mouth and said.

"Emperor Shi, since you are ashamed, take someone back to Huai City immediately, and tell Mr. Bai that Mrs. Nanzi will be buried with the etiquette of a monarch's wife. She hid her identity during her lifetime, and now she is gone, so she should be given to Mrs. Bai." The glory she deserves."

After hearing this, Emperor Shi nodded heavily, then got on his horse and galloped towards Huai City with his entourage.

Sun Wu pondered for a while at this time, and waited for Meng Di to look away before speaking.

"Now that the matter of the Lu State has been settled, our power has extended to the border of the Jin State. After this defeat, Zhao Jianzi must not launch an attack on our Han State for a long time."

"We also need to use this period of time to take the next step in the south as soon as possible. The relationship between Qi State and Yan State is becoming more and more tense. Jin State will definitely not sit idly by in this situation."

"Then we will use this complicated geographical relationship to maintain the current situation as much as possible. On the one hand, we will recuperate and recuperate, and on the other hand, we will actively expand in the south. Now, Mr. Guo has begun to develop Yizhou."

"The State of Yue is also ambitious. I'm afraid it won't be long before they send troops to attack the State of Wu. So I think we must maintain a tough attitude towards the State of Yue. Only in this way can we make them submit to our control."

"It's just that King Goujian of Yue is a man who is good at forbearance. Chen He is too young to be an opponent of Fan Li and Wen Zhong. Mr. Ji is getting older now. I heard that he was still feeling unwell a while ago."

"So I am going to invite myself to go to Juchao to guard. If there is any emergency, I can respond in advance. Chen He's temperament is relatively calm, and Qufu is the best candidate. Mr. Ji can also return to Huaicheng Take charge."

Meng Di nodded after listening. This arrangement can be said to be reasonable, but when he mentioned it, he thought of King Goujian of Yue.

"I agree with most of Mr. Sun's opinions. It's just that we can stay on the sidelines for the time being and see what they choose. Then we can deal with it."
