Chapter 313 Finale
Afterwards, Wei Xiang followed Zhishou to attack, and then rescued two sons of Doctor Feng on the way, but he could not see Zhishou all the way.
The King of Chu discovered the intention of Wei Xiang and others and began to lead a large army to encircle him. Zhifu was convinced that he could not do anything and retreated at the suggestion of Wei Xiang.
After the Jin army was defeated, they fled from the Yellow River on a large scale. However, when they arrived on the bank of the Yellow River, due to the lack of ships, they were forced to swim and surrender under the pursuit of the Chu army.
At Zhao Shuo's request, Lou Ying sent a ship to receive Wei Xiang and others and helped Wei Xiang and others retreat to the north bank of the Yellow River.
Although the left army of Chu was defeated, the Chu army still won the victory. The King of Chu drank horses and sacrificed to the sky on the south bank of the Yellow River, and immediately issued an order to the princes in the Zheng Metropolitan Alliance, and the Chu State officially seized the hegemony of the world.
After the Jin army packed up the remaining troops, the Jin army retreated to Jiangdu. Lin's father apologized in person. The other ministers were silent. At this time, the scholars stood up to help Lin's father speak, so that the responsibility could be distributed to the six ministers as mentioned before, so Lin's father was not dismissed.
As Wei Xiang had expected, the only highlight of this battle, the Xia family and the Wei family became the objects of praise for the Marquis of Jin. The third uncle Wei Ke was officially promoted to a doctor for his merits, and his fief was in Linghu, which was Linghu Ke.
After returning to the fiefdom, Wei Xiang prepared his troops and officially turned his attention to the Beishangdang Basin.
At this moment, Hu Yu, the leader of the Hu clan, sent envoys to contact Wei again, so Wei Xiang joined forces with Luan Shu to go north and directly destroyed the Linghu clan leader and many Chidi tribes of the Beishangdang, divided the Beishangdang into Changzhi, the eldest son and the three cities of the Xia clan obtained Changzhi City.
Spring is over and winter comes. Qin takes advantage of the failure of Jin and takes the opportunity to launch a counterattack against Jin. Weiyi and Linghuyi are both located in the southwest of Jin and are the first targets of Qin's attack.
Wei Xiang led Xiayi soldiers to rescue, fought with the Qin army in Fu family, killed the Qin general Du Hui, and defeated the Qin army, which shocked the Qin Hou who was watching the battle.
After the Battle of Fu, Qin surrendered, and Lin's father died at this time. Zhongxing Geng became a new subordinate of the army. The Shuihui officially inherited the position of General of the Central Army and began to lead Jin on the road of revival.
Because the Chu State in the south was in a strong position, Jin State set its sights on the north and began to explore the north. After a fierce battle, Wei Xiang made great efforts and obtained a fiefdom under the favor of the Shihui and established Jinyang City.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Prime Minister continued to attack from Shangdang to the east and destroyed many small Red Di countries such as Fei Kingdom.
At this time, the Xia family's power began to grow bigger and was regarded by everyone as the next family that was likely to challenge the Six Qings.
Zhang Geng, the last of the Six Lords, was worried about this and found Xian Gu, who was also quite hostile to Wei Xiang, to suppress Wei Xiang together.
The power of Jinhou Jiju also began to grow, and he had plans to interfere in the government affairs.
After learning that Zhongxing and Xianshi were planning to deal with him, Wei Xiang decisively convinced Ji Ju, Shihui and Zhao Shuo. After the three of them joined forces, they forced Xiangu Zhongxing Geng into a mess.
Xiangu was furious and finally had murderous intent. He suddenly led the troops and horses to attack Wei Xiang on Chunlu, and at the same time attacked the hall.
However, Wei Xiang was prepared and destroyed the Xian family with his backhand, allowing the Xian family to completely withdraw from the historical stage.
After Xiangu died, Wei Prime Minister officially entered the six ministers and became the subordinate of the six ministers.
That winter, Shihui and Luan Dun died one after another, and Zhao Shuo was promoted to the Supreme Minister of Jin State, while Shi Xie and Luan Shu entered the six ministers respectively.
The ranking order of the new six ministers is Zhao Shuo, Que Ke, Zhongxing Geng, Wei Xiang, Shi Xie, and Luan Shu.
After Zhao Shuo became the Shangqing, his desire for power was enormous, and he began to conflict with Ji Ju, the Duke of Jin. Since most of the six ministers were Zhao Shuo's people, Ji Ju was firmly suppressed.
At this time, Qi State began to become stronger, so as the envoy of Jin State, he was ridiculed by the Empress Dowager Jun Houzheng.
Kuke returned to his country in a furious state, and after a political exchange of interests, he persuaded Zhao Shuo to launch the war between Jin and Qi.
Because he was worried that Ji Ju would seize power, Zhao Shuo took Luan Shu to control Jiangdu, but Que Ke, Zhongxing Geng and Wei Xiang led the Jin army to fight.
In this war, Wei Prime Minister captured Qi Hou in one fell swoop, forcing Qi, Lu, Wei, and Song to recognise Jin's hegemony again.
When defeating the QI Hou and returning to the army, Wei Xiang learned something extremely unexpected - Zhao Shuo suddenly became seriously ill.
Just the day before Wei Xiang returned to Jiangdu, Zhao Shuo died of sudden illness.
Wei Xiang, who felt strange in his heart, had not had time to deal with it yet, and suddenly found that his situation had become very bad.
Since Zhao Shuo's son Zhao Wu was still in his infancy, he suddenly turned against him, denied Zhao Wu's inheritance rights, and proposed to expand the six ministers into eight ministers.
So the Zhao family was directly defeated by the nobles, and then Han Jue joined He Zhishou and gathered together the eight nobles.
The situation suddenly changed tremendously. Wei Xiang had only two allies, Shi Xie and Han Jue, but he had to face the five nobles led by Queke and Zhongxing Geng.
At this time, Jinyang City was suddenly invaded by the Linhu tribe, so Wei Xiang hurriedly led his troops north to rescue the siege.
Because there was also a conflict within the Zhao family who was not elected to win over Lou Ying, Zhao Zhuangji had an affair with Lou Ying, hoping that Lou Ying could help Zhao Shuo's infant son Zhao Wu.
However, Yuan Tong and Ping Kuo did not allow Zhao Wu to take office, so he directly used this excuse to expel Lou Ying from the Zhao family, and at the same time denied Zhao Wu's inheritance rights to the Zhao family leader.
At Luan Shu's suggestion, Ji Ju and Queke, and Lin's side of the Bank of China reached an agreement to allow Tu'an Jia to suddenly send troops to surround the Xia Palace and massacre Yuan Tong, Ping Kuo and Zhao clans.
After hearing the news, Wei Xiang hurried back and happened to see Zhao Wu, who was under Cheng Ying's protection, rescued Zhao Wu from Tu'anjia.
Afterwards, Wei Xiang and Han Jue entered the palace to make a statement, and finally moved Ji Ju's compassion and ordered Wei Xiang to adopt Zhao Wu and return the Zhao family's fief after Zhao Wu became an adult.
Next, the conflict between Wei Xiang and Que Ke and others became more and more fierce, so Que Ke once again planned with Tu'anjia, hoping to take advantage of the spring of another year to gather troops to siege and kill Wei Xiang.
But the nightingale of Wei Xiang had already discovered the information, so in the second year, Chunsou realized the counterattack of the Que clan and directly erased the Que clan.
After the extermination of the Que clan, the Prime Minister of Wei officially took office as Shangqing and restored the eight ministers to six ministers.
At this time, Ji Ju felt the power of Wei Xiang, secretly joined forces with Zhong Xing Geng, and Zhishou wanted to kill Wei Xiang.
After a court meeting, Wei Xiang was suddenly attacked. Fortunately, he broke through the siege with his own martial arts and returned to the Wei family mansion.
Then a great war broke out within Jiangdu. In the end, Wei Xiang destroyed the Zhongxing clan and Zhi clan in one fell swoop with his better military level, killed Tu'anjia and imprisoned Ji Ju.
After this battle, the six nobles were reorganized by the Wei prime minister into the four nobles, namely the Wei prime minister, Shi Xie, Han Jue and Luan Shu.
At this time, Chu believed that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he went north again to provoke Jin.
However, Wei Xiang led the Jin army, which had just developed morale and majesty in the bloody battle, and defeated the King of Chu in one fell swoop and regained hegemony.
Wei Jiang, the leader of the Wei clan, was seriously ill. Before his death, he passed the position of sect leader to Wei Xiang in front of everyone in Wei. Wei and Xia clans once again became the new Wei clan, and Wei Xiang became the leader of the new Wei clan.
In the following years, Jin State quickly became stronger under the rule of Wei Prime Minister, and the Wei family's fiefdom quickly occupied one-quarter of the Jin State's land.
This scene aroused Luan Shu's concerns. He once again joined forces with other ministers to get rid of Wei Xiang, but was discovered and killed by Wei Xiang.
After Luan Shu's death, the four ministers of Jin State became the prime minister of Wei, Shi Xie and Han Jue.
Under the leadership of Wei Prime Minister, Jin State went north to eliminate Lin Hu and Lou Fan, expanded the border to the grasslands in the south of the desert, and began to border the Xiongnu.
Han Jue was also dead at this time. Before his death, Han Jue was very clever and asked his son Han Qi to choose to be loyal to Wei Xiang. Han family officially became a retainer of Wei Xiang, and Han's territory was also incorporated into Wei.
After a long talk with Wei Xiang, Shi Xie also chose to incorporate all the Shi family into the Wei family and bowed to the Wei family to repent.
The Wei Prime Minister who had completely controlled the Jin State began to continue his expeditions to the east and west, first destroyed Qin State, Zhai State and Yiqu, and then went south to conquer Bashu.
After that, Wei Xiang continued to choose to go north, destroyed Zhongshan Kingdom and Yan Kingdom, and conquered Liaodong.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Xiang led the army of Jin to the south, first conquered Linzi of Qi and destroyed Qi.
The demise of Qi shocked the world. The King of Chu led many small countries in the Central Plains to form a coalition force and launched a war with the Prime Minister of Wei in Emperor Qiu of Wei.
The Prime Minister of Wei defeated the coalition forces of the princes in one fell swoop, killed the King of Gong of Chu who was in power at that time, and wiped out the twenty-five princely states in the Central Plains in one fell swoop.
The next year, Wei Prime Minister formally forced Ji Ju to abdicate, and Wei State replaced Jin State.
In another year, Wei Prime Minister, who had basically pacified the situation in the Central Plains, went south again, directly destroyed the Zhou emperor and then destroyed the Zheng State.
At this point, except for Wei, there were only Chu, Wu and Yue.
After resting for another year, Wei Prime Minister raised all his troops to attack Chu, defeated the Chu army in Fangyi, and then conquered Yingdu, and officially destroyed Chu.
After destroying Chu, Prime Minister Wei immediately turned his troops eastward, destroying Wu and Yue.
At this point, the entire China was completely unified in the Wei State.
Wei moved the capital to Luoyi, officially became emperor, and established the Wei Dynasty.
Next, Wei Prime Minister dispatched troops and generals to conquer Lingnan and southwest regions, defeated the Donghu and the Xiongnu in the north, and incorporated the Korean Peninsula into the territory in the east.
After completing all this, Wei Prime Minister continued to advance westward, first occupying the Qinghai region and the Hexi Corridor, and taking this as a starting point, he gradually occupied the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Western Regions.
The Wei army continued to advance westward and entered Central Asia. In the north, they fought all the way to Daxinganling and Sakhalin Island, completely achieving the most prosperous territory of the Qing Dynasty in history.
At the same time, the Wei State's ocean-going fleet was constantly exploring, first discovering Southeast Asia, then discovering the American continent, and establishing a new colony.
When the two armies of Wei entered the Eastern European plains and the South Asian subcontinent of India, Wei Xiang, who was already 89 years old, died.
