After this bloody battle, the coalition forces realized that they could not fight against the increasingly powerful Qin State by spreading their forces. However, Dongxing State had four border cities adjacent to Da Qin, and the current number of troops stationed in Dongxing State was only one million. It was impossible to allocate enough troops to each border city.
[26nbsp;] But the biggest problem facing Dongxing Country today is still the lack of food.
After Xu Sancai collected the grain from Dongxing Border County, he stayed in place to rest and recuperate. At this time, the coalition forces could only temporarily take a full-scale defensive position. After resting for half a month, the Daqin troops were dispatched again, still surrounding the county and city.
Purchase grain. At the same time, Da Qin also put pressure on the other two medium-sized vassal states of Dongxing State adjacent to Liulin State, and forcefully conquered the two countries.
As a result, Da Qin surrounded Dongxing State from three directions, and the number of border towns adjacent to Dongxing State and Da Qin State also increased to eight, making the coalition forces suddenly dwarfed. Moreover, Dongxing State's external trade channels only left the west.
In order to prevent the Qin Dynasty from annexing the Lushui Kingdom in the west and completely blockading Dongxing, the Dongxing Kingdom had to send hundreds of thousands of troops to Lushui Kingdom to assist in the defense.
However, Lu Shui State has eighteen counties and cities, among which there are six border cities adjacent to the present-day Daqin. Although Lu Shui State has more than 200,000 troops, even if the coalition's hundreds of thousands of assisting defense troops are included, the number is only 400,000.
The troops are simply not enough. And the most important thing is that King Lu Shui does not want to fight with Da Qin now.
Xu Sancai granted titles and sufficient property to all the kings who surrendered. With the growth of the Qin State, the country was basically stable, and he no longer worried about these people's rebellion, so he allowed their family members and descendants to serve in official positions.
, although he did not have the original power, the life of King Jiang and his family was fully guaranteed, and they lived a happy and comfortable life.
As for the countries that opposed Da Qin, either their kings were assassinated and their clans were exterminated, or their countries were completely destroyed. This made the kings of those small and medium-sized countries unwilling to confront Da Qin head-on. The most important thing was that Xu Sancai deliberately let Wang Youcai and Chen Dafu spread the word.
The prosperity of Great Qin now makes the people and even the armies of these countries yearn for Great Qin.
After Xu Sancai obtained the information about Lu Shui Kingdom, he secretly sent an envoy from the Qin State to Lu Shui Kingdom. Under the arrangement of Wang Youcai, he secretly met with King Lu Shui and proposed surrender. King Lu Shui was still hesitant, especially now.
Lushui State had a coalition garrison, which made him even more wary.
Xu Sancai asked the envoy to send a message. In order to show his sincerity, he would assassinate the coalition general stationed in Lushui Kingdom within three days. He had already sneaked into Lushui Kingdom first. During this period, the energy he obtained from the Divine Emperor Art allowed his cultivation level to improve again.
The coalition forces stationed in Lu Shui Kingdom were not elites, and the generals were just war sects. That night he assassinated two coalition generals.
Xu Sancai did this to weaken the coalition forces on the one hand, and to shock the tigers on the other. The strongest general in Lu Shui Kingdom was only Zhan Zong level. He used this to warn King Lu Shui that if Da Qin wanted to assassinate him, King Lu Shui would not have the strength to resist.
. Sure enough, when King Lu Shui learned that the two coalition generals had been killed, he immediately decided to surrender to Da Qin.
Xu Sancai asked King Lu Shui to keep quiet and quietly mobilized elite troops to gather in six border cities. The 150,000 coalition troops stationed in Lu Shui Kingdom were stationed in the six border cities. With the cooperation of Lu Shui State, he wanted to eliminate all 150,000 coalition troops in Lu Shui State.
territory, further weakening the strength of the coalition forces.
Since King Lu Shui decided to defect to the Qin Dynasty, he chose to cooperate fully. With the cooperation of Lu Shui State and the coalition forces were dispersed, Xu Sancai arranged for 600,000 elite troops to attack six border cities respectively. Lu Shui State also had 40,000 troops stationed in each border city.
, and the coalition forces in each border city only numbered 20,000 to 30,000, so there was no doubt about the result.
The surrender of Lu Shui State not only caused Dongxing State to be completely surrounded by Da Qin, but also lost 150,000 allied troops. The number of border cities adjacent to Da Qin also increased to ten, and the remaining troops were not enough to distribute. The most troublesome thing is that
Dongxing's foreign trade channels were completely blocked, and the way to supplement food from the outside was cut off.
The Dongfang Family and the Wanqing Kingdom cannot sit still this time. Although there are still more than 800,000 coalition troops stationed in the Dongxing Kingdom, if they are dispersed and stationed, they will inevitably be divided and cannibalized in the end. But if they are concentrated on defense, those undefended counties and cities
Naturally, it will be eaten by the Great Qin State. If that is the case, I am afraid that the Wanqing State will not be able to stop the expansion of the Great Qin State.
The most important thing is that the Dongxing Kingdom currently has half of the troops of the Wanqing Kingdom and the other four countries stationed. If all of them are lost, the four countries will be severely weakened and unable to fight against the Qin Dynasty. The Wanqing Kingdom immediately contacted the other three countries urgently and must seize all time to mobilize supplies to increase supplies.
We need to use our troops to rescue them, and we cannot let the coalition forces in Dongxing State suffer any further losses.
But even though it was just the autumn harvest, Wanqing State suffered from floods, and the grain fields of ten thousand acres failed to harvest, leaving Wanqing State with a huge gap in its own food. And the nearby countries carried out two rounds of grain-burning attacks because of Xu Sancai, and now
He did not dare to blatantly support the Wanqing Kingdom, and the other three countries had also been attacked by him several times, and now they were also suffering from a lack of food.
Chen Dafu's Chamber of Commerce is using all its funds and connections to purchase large quantities of grain. Grain from the surrounding countries of the four countries has been purchased by his Chamber of Commerce. This has caused the price of grain to rise crazily, reaching more than three times the usual level, causing complaints among the people. As for Wanqing Kingdom,
People who traveled long distances to buy grain were frequently intercepted during transportation, and even those sent out to buy grain were assassinated and stolen.
That was naturally the work of Xu Sancai and the Thieves Guild. He used his spatial powers to retrieve objects from across the air. Stealing was easy, and assassination was even easier. However, most of those tasks were completed by members of the Thieves Guild. Pure Thieves Guild
Members, who have not joined Da Qin, specifically targeted the targets of the Four Kingdoms in the order issued by the Thieves Guild Headquarters.
Xu Sancai stayed in the frontline border town, and his daily job was to review the troops. Firstly, he could improve the morale of the troops; secondly, he could inspire the troops' support and increase the energy of the God Emperor's Art he had obtained; thirdly, he could appreciate the
The artistic conception of dominating the world enhances the aura of the king and helps to practice the King's Sword, which is the pinnacle of sword skills. Its power is vastly different from that of the Overlord Sword Technique.
Today's Great Qin is already the largest country in the Chaotic Continent. This is mainly because the four major families were originally worried that a certain country would become too powerful and lose control, so they have always controlled the size of the country. Xu Sancai is now the leader of the Great Qin Kingdom
As a king, it is naturally easier to understand and master the king's momentum. Of course, you must hurry up and practice the king's sword.
