A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 301
The assassination of Prince Dan of Yan completely angered King Luo of Huai. King Luo of Huai immediately ordered an attack on Yan regardless of the fact that Huai had just conquered Zhao and needed to digest the fruits of victory.

Huai State once again mobilized 20 troops from home to attack Yan State. The morale of the 20-strong army was high.

Previously, when Xu Chao even destroyed Wei and Zhao, the soldiers received a large number of rewards, which made other soldiers very envious. In addition, the Yan State actually dared to assassinate the king, which made the soldiers of the Huai State share the same hatred.

The morale of the Huai State army was high, and the attack on the Yan State was overwhelming. The Yan State was unable to resist, and the Huai State would not accept the surrender even if it wanted to.Within a few months, the Huai State army marched straight in. The army defeated several cities and finally surrounded Jidu.
Prince Dan wanted to take advantage of the bitter cold in the north in winter to force the Huai State to withdraw its troops. Unfortunately, this time the Huai State mobilized many soldiers from Huaibei, Anyi, Luoyi and other northern regions, and distributed a large amount of cold-proof clothing.Although the Northland is cold, it is not unbearable.

The army besieged the city for a month, and the defenders of Yan State suffered heavy casualties.Morale is low, and the nobles in the city have different ideas.Seeing how brave the Huai army was, the nobles of the Yan Kingdom did not want to be destroyed together with the King of Yan. The feeling of waiting for death with swords hanging over their heads was really a torture.

Soon, the nobles couldn't bear it anymore and began to communicate with each other. Rumors spread even in the city.He said that because King Yan assassinated Huai State, Huai State was angered. If he did not surrender, after the city was defeated, Huai State would massacre the city to vent its anger.

All kinds of messages were flying around. When Yan Wangdan found out, he was furious and ordered people to arrest those who spread the rumors.

It's a pity that if rumors could be banned so easily, there would be nothing like what happened to King Zhou Li back then.On the contrary, the more banned, the faster the rumors will spread and more and more people will believe them.

The people in the city were in panic all day long, and the nobles were also worried that they would be buried with them after the city was destroyed.Finally, the oppressive Jidu City broke out, and Yan Wangdan never dreamed that he would be held hostage by the nobles.

Seeing the dark crowd, Prince Dan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He completely lost his faith. The entire nobles of the Yan Kingdom wanted to surrender to save their lives. What could he do even if he was the King of Yan?This is the general trend.

The general trend of the world, those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish.

King Dan of Yan was tied up by these nobles and then Kaicheng surrendered.Xu Chao was very satisfied when he saw Yan Wang Dan tied into a rice dumpling, and sent someone to send Yan Wang Dan and his family to Jinling.

Jidu was occupied by the Huai army. This country, which was very prosperous in the era of King Yan Zhao and almost destroyed Qi State and became the overlord of the East, perished on this day.

The demise of the Yan Kingdom meant that all the clan branches of the Zhou Dynasty disappeared from the land of Zhuxia.

The demise of the Yan State was astonishingly fast. In just a few months, the Yan State with two thousand miles of mountains and rivers was annexed by the Huai State. The Qin State and the Qi State had not recovered from the news of the destruction of the Zhao State. In the blink of an eye, the Yan State was annexed by the Huai State. , Yan State is gone too.

Even the grain and grass prepared by Huai State were not used up. Huai State received a lot of wealth and grain from Yan State. The morale of the 20 Huai army is strong. According to the system of Huai State, these people will receive generous rewards.

At the same time, Wang Luo was a little surprised to see that the Yan State was destroyed so easily. Since the Yan State was destroyed, the Qi State was completely surrounded. More importantly, the Qi State had a flat terrain and no danger to defend. It was because of the turmoil between King Qi and Tian Dan that the ministers in the country were disheartened and did not dare to contribute.

As a result, the state of Qi was in disarray. The current king of Qi was not a hero, not even a leader.

Extravagance is the most popular in Qi State, and so are the many officials and officials.The Palace of Qi can be said to be the most prosperous among the states of Bang and Zhou.Until now, King Qi is still in the arms of the beauty, drunk and dreaming.

The Prime Minister of Qi State came forward and reported: "Your Majesty, the Huai State Army has attacked and destroyed the State of Yan." The King of Qi said drunkenly: "What? The State of Yan has been destroyed?"

"Your Majesty, for the sake of the ancestral temple and the country, you should immediately recruit a large army to resist the Huai Kingdom." Xiangguo said.

King Qi sighed and said, "Then please ask the Prime Minister to do it!"

Qi State summoned a large army to prepare for the defense of Huai State. The army went north to resist the Huai army coming from Yan State. However, Xu Chao was prepared. The army in Yan State did not attack at all. Instead, the army stationed in Huai'an suddenly went north to attack Qi State. country.

Qi State did not react at all, and the Huai State army had already invaded Qi State from Huaibei.The soldiers of the State of Qi were caught off guard, their morale dropped sharply, and they hurriedly retreated, hoping to go south to block the Huai army. As a result, the Huai army of the State of Yan also took the opportunity to go south.

Qi State was attacked from two sides and could not resist it. The two armies soon met in Linzi.The Qi army collapsed and the morale in the city was low. The Huai army easily broke through Linzi City, and the King of Qi was captured and surrendered.

It only took the Huai army two months to destroy the former eastern overlord Qi.King Qi was escorted to Jinling of Huai State. In the end, Wang Luo also granted him three hundred food towns and allowed him to offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple.

The Huai Kingdom unified the world so quickly that even Huai King Luo was surprised. However, in just two or three years, Wei, Zhao, Yan, and Qi were successively destroyed. The speed of their demise was jaw-dropping. .

After Huai State annexed Yan State and Qi State, all the nobles and ministers of the two countries went to the south. At the same time, they abolished the systems of Yan State and Qi State and carried out restructuring in Yan State and Qi State.

The rapid destruction of Yan and Qi caught Huai State off guard. Huai State was also in a hurry for a while and began to allocate a large number of people to rule these two lands.

Fortunately, with the army of Huai State, Yan and Qi were successfully taken over. After being deterred, no one dared to rebel at all, and the accumulation of Qi was gained by Huai.When Wang Luo received Xu Chao's letter, he was also surprised by the wealth owned by Qi State.

The nobles and royal family of Qi State are actually so rich. With such a large sum of money and food, the Huai State army will be rewarded this time.

After successively annexing Zhao, Yan, and Qi, Huai obtained a large area of ​​land and needed a large number of manpower to take over.Huaiguo now feels like it is full.

No one expected that Zhao, Yan, and Qi, with millions of people and thousands of miles of territory, would perish in such a short period of time.Wang Luo immediately ordered the army to garrison on these newly acquired lands, and then seize the opportunity to send people to control these lands.

The plan to attack Qin was also put on the agenda.Qin is different from other countries in that it has dangerous mountains and rivers, and the morale of its soldiers is also high.Fortunately, Bai Qi also died of illness a few years ago, and the Qin State no longer has an entire level of generals.

Even though Qin's national power was not weak, it was just hanging on for dear life in the face of Huai, which had obtained [-]% of the world's land and population.

As for the geographical advantage that Qin relies on, it is of no use in front of Huai. Huai can not only attack Qin from Shangjun in the north, but also from Hedong, and from Hanguguan.At that time, several armies of the Huai State attacked, and the Qin State was destroyed in a matter of seconds.
