The battle between Jin and Chu is a beautiful and unique landscape in Chinese history, and is not available in any other historical era and cannot be reproduced.

This is mainly because of the geographical situation, that is, the subtleties of the geographical location of the two countries.

Jin and Chu are bordered by each other, but unfortunately, the dividing line between the two countries is the central and western section of Wushan, which is hundreds of miles away.

In later generations, the Qin people occupied this place and established a Hangu Pass, which is known as the world's number one pass, on the territory of the present Jin State north of Wushan.

Therefore, the terrain of this place is extremely dangerous and is not enough to allow large troops to pass through, let alone extremely delicate chariots.

To the west of the border between the two countries is Guanzhong where Qin is located. For Jin and Chu, Guanzhong is a poor mountain and bad water. Attacking the other side through Guanzhong will lead to infinite lengthening and breaking of the logistics line. Moreover, the owner of Guanzhong, Qin, is also a second-rate power, so both sides will not fight in this place.

When his eyes moved eastward, although he had shrunk a lot, he still maintained a territory slightly smaller than that of the current Qin State.

Although the Zhou emperor had declined for many years, the fact that the King of Chu was retreated by the princess man in the past few years proved that the Chu State still had awe of the Zhou emperor, and Jin State itself was a vassal state established by the branch of the Ji family of the Zhou emperor. Therefore, the Zhou emperor's royal capital and Luoyi rarely became an option for both sides to start a war.

As a result, a large number of second-rate, third-rate and even less-in-class vassal states were conquered.

The State of Chu wanted to destroy these countries, and the State of Haoyuma and Huanghe beat Jin face to face.

Jin State is just the opposite. I firmly stop what Chu State wants to do. As a recognized hegemony by the princes of China, these small Central Plains countries are the younger brothers of Jin State, and Jin State must protect them.

After all, the protection fees paid to Jin by these countries every year are not in vain. When Zhao Dun was alive, he even formulated in detail how Jin should charge protection fees for each country. Countries that do not pay the protection fees will be conquered by Jin soldiers.

Therefore, a large number of small Central Plains led by Zheng, Song and Lu became buffer zones and war zones between Jin and Chu. When Chu fought against any of the little brothers of Jin, Jin would quickly come to support them, and then the two sides fought on the little brother's territory.

If Jin State wins, of course, the younger brothers will not be able to not express anything to the elder brother who came to rescue. Jin State smiled and took the extra benefits to return home, and the monarch and the nobles who went to fight each divided the benefits.

If Chu wins, there are two consequences. One is that Chu swallows this little brother directly, and the other is that Chu beats this little brother from Jin to his own little brother, and lets the little brother turn to him to give him the benefits.

The rebellion of my younger brother will naturally arouse dissatisfaction from Jin, but Jin cannot cross the buffer zone to attack Chu, so Jin has only one way - to send troops to conquer this rebellious younger brother.

At this time, the roles of both sides began to change again. When Chu saw that my newly accepted brother, Jin, came to fight again, how could that be? So Chu also sent troops to rescue him, and the two sides started a war again.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the battle for hegemony between Jin and Chu was like this, fighting back and forth among the many swaying fence-bearing brothers in the Central Plains.

During the entire Spring and Autumn Period, the Chu State had never invaded the Jin land at any time, and the number of times that Jin could invade the Chu land was just a slap.

Overall, Jin State belonged to the overlord more often, while Chu State belonged to the challenger of the overlord for most of the time.

But the State of Chu was not without strength to overwhelm Jin. For example, when King Xiong Lu of Chu was reigned, it was the period when Chu State was overlord who was the most powerful in the world.

Xiong Lun is the current King of Chu!

When Wei Xiang thought of this, he couldn't laugh.

At this moment, Wei Xiang discovered another thing that was also very unhappy.

"Xu Tong?" Wei Xiang raised his tone in surprise.

Not far away, a figure looked at him. This man was young but wearing a general armor that only a doctor could wear. After recognizing Wei Xiang, his eyes suddenly became extremely resentful. Who else would he not be Xu Tong?

Zhao Shuo said lightly: "Although Xu was kicked out of the noble clan, he was still a senior official clan. However, Xu only has one county now, which is even worse than your Wei clan, so you don't need to worry."

The demeanor of the nobles and officials is shown in the fact that even if the political struggle fails, it often leads to the family. Zhao Dun drove away the number one political enemy Hu Ji that year, and sent Yu Pian to send Hu Ji's family gifts to the State of Jin and Hu Ji to reunite, but the Hu family has not been destroyed.

Later, Zhao Dun wanted to kill Zhao Dun's power in the rebellion of the Five Generals, and killed him, and established the Shihui as the leader of the Shishi family. The Shishi family has not been destroyed, and now it has become one of the six major clans.

Zhao Dun treated Xu's family equally in this matter. After killing Xu Ke, Xu Tong was allowed to control Xu's family. No one in the Xu family was implicated, and Xu was still a legitimate official family of Jin State.

The struggle between nobles and officials is cruel and bloody, but equally elegant and noble, full of pride and demeanor!

Wei Xiang sighed with regret. He won't kill his whole family? This is not good, it's really bad.

Wei Xiang killed Xu Tong’s father with his own hands!

Xu Tong looked at Wei Xiang coldly. This feeling made Wei Xiang very unhappy, so he smiled brightly at the other party and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

What are you looking at?

Xu Tong turned his head as if he had eaten two pounds of flies.

Wei Xiang laughed haha. Anyway, the hatred between the two sides could not be resolved, so he could only change the other party's pain and make him happy.

The Yellow River has arrived.

At this time, the Yellow River was also called the river. The big river. In later generations, Wei Xiang once came here and witnessed the turbid river flowing to the east. Now, the water here is so clear that Wei Xiang remembers the stream in Wei Yi!

The upper reaches of this river are not the Kubuqi Desert, the Tengger Desert, and the Ulanbuhe Desert, but the green grasslands and the rich grasslands!

Crossing the Yellow River is the capital of the Luoyi king of the Emperor of Zhou.

Here, Wei Xiang heard a news.

"As the representative of the emperor, Wang Sunman, was waiting at the Nanban Ferry, and the young master was also with him!"

This immediately aroused Wei Xiang's deep curiosity.

Prince Ji Ju, he will become a marquis of Jin in a few months.
