The truce between Qin and Wei means that the "Second Central Plains War" has finally come to an end.

I remember that during the "First Central Plains War", the "Three Kingdoms Alliance of Wei, Qin, Wei, and Chu" defeated the "Five Kingdoms Alliance of Han, Qi, Lu, Song, and Yue" and became the dominant party in that war.

In this "Second Central Plains War", with the whole world as its enemy, Wei State used its own power to resist the seven countries of Korea, Qi, Chu, Lu, Yue, Wei, and Qin, and finally overthrew Korea.

(Han Ran's regime), instigated a rebellion against the two kingdoms of Wei and Lu, defeated the four kingdoms of Qi, Chu, Yue and Qin, and won the final victory.

The "Anti-Wei Alliance" that Han Wangran tried his best to promote in order to restrict Wei State has completely failed.

It has to be said that this outcome shocked the whole world. After all, no one had thought before that Wei could actually achieve such a victory when one was against seven. For a time, the whole world was talking about "Wei", and Wei's son

The people, whether they are the old Wei people, or the Sichuan Luo people, Shang Shui Chu people, and Song County Song people who have integrated into the Wei people, are all sincerely happy, and even proud of it.

The enemies of Wei, such as Qi, Chu, and Yue, trembled because they understood that the current situation no longer allowed the "Anti-Wei Alliance" to organize another coalition to attack Wei.

The main reason is that South Korea, which served as a 'sacrifice' in the Second Central Plains War, has been conquered by Wei, and the real core figure and facilitator of the "Anti-Wei Alliance" - Han Wangran, was also involved in this battle.

His death during the war was undoubtedly a heavy loss for the anti-Wei alliance.

But having said that, for now, the Three Kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Yue are still capable of protecting themselves.

Let’s talk about Qi first. Qi’s military losses in this Central Plains war were almost negligible. This allowed Qi, which still had more than 200,000 troops, to be able to defeat the attacks of Wei generals Zhao Jiang and Qu Cheng.

Next, he firmly guarded the border, making it difficult for the Wei army to cross the thunder pool.

And Chu State, Chu State was the country that suffered the most losses in this Central Plains War.

First of all, it can be said that the millions of Chu troops have followed the path of the previous "Five Kingdoms' Conquest of Wei", so that in the end, only about 30% of the one million troops returned to the country, although this situation seems much more optimistic than the last time.

, but the terrible thing is that this time Chu State lost General Xiang Mo, one of the Three Pillars, and his cousin Xiang Juan, who was regarded as the most powerful general in Chu State.

Leaving aside Xiang Kuan, who is Xiang Mo?

That was the famous general of Chu who once stood on equal footing with generals such as Tian Dan of Qi and Li Mu, Le Yi, Lian Pi of South Korea.

Contrary to the world's impression that "Chu's army is weak", due to Chu's large population, many generals have emerged in the past twenty years - such as Wei's Wu Ji, Zhai Huang, Qu Cheng, and Yan Mo

, Sun Shuke, etc., these were all from the Chu State.

But when it comes to commanders with excellent strategic vision, Chu State still has to recommend one of the first three pillars "Shouling Jun Jingshe", one of the first three pillars "Xiling Jun Quping", and the soon-to-be "First Three Pillars"

One of them was "Admiral Xiang Mo", and the other generals of the Chu State, whether Xiang Pei, Lord of Xinyang, Xiong Li, Lord of Diyang, Yang You, the deputy general of Shouling Lord Jingshe, or the general "Niyu" whom Xiang Mo was very optimistic about.

”, “Yu Ji”, including the “former Di Yangjun Xiong Shang” who died in battle, the fierce general Xiang Kuan, etc., compared with the top three, they are all inevitably inferior.

To put it simply, Jing She, Qu Ping, and Xiang Mo are like Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Nanliang, and Zhao Yuandai, King of Yu of Wei, or Gongsun Qi, Marquis of Wuxin, and Wang Jian, Marquis of Changxin of Qin—at least in China.

In the evaluation of the world, this is roughly the case.

And now, after Jing She, Xiang Mo also died in the war with Wei. This has put the Chu State into a dilemma of losing its commanders. Although there are many generals, they lack real "general generals".

"Capital". "Note: "General's talent", in layman's terms, means marshal, general,

There are national army commanders such as Da Sima, but there is no such position as "marshal" in this era (although there are records similar to "marshal seeking" in the Spring and Autumn Period, but that is not an official position), and the so-called general (or general),

In fact, it cannot reach the level of commanding the entire country's troops.』

In fact, in comparison, the situation in Wei is similar. King Yu Zhao Yuandai passed away, and King Zhao Yuanzuo of Nanliang is old. In fact, Wei only has half of its "general talents" left, that is, Di Huang, the general of Tiance Mansion.

, but don’t forget that Zhao Run, the monarch of Wei State, is the "Wei Gongzi Run" who once swept across the Central Plains. Therefore, Wei State still has "one and a half" generals who can win the war.

One of the keys to this war.

By the way, this can also reflect from the side that South Korea lost this war and even the orthodox regime was overthrown by Wei. This is incredible, because South Korea has "Yanmen Shou Li Mu" and "Beijing"

With the talents of these two generals, "Yan Shou Le Yi", it is really unimaginable that apart from the domestic economy, the rest of the army and generals were not inferior to Wei's, and South Korea could be beaten so badly.

It has to be said that in addition to the excellent strategic vision of Wei King Zhao Run, Lihou Han Wu had to bear the main responsibility for this failure, because if he had not replaced Le Yi before the battle, the Wei army would never have thought of breaking through the Shanggu defense line in such a short period of time.

If the Shanggu defense line is not breached by the Wei army, Korea will not fall.

If Korea will not fall, the Wei army will not be able to withdraw its troops to attack Qi and put pressure on Qi.

It is no exaggeration to say that an order from Li Hou Han Wu not only ruined his country, but also ruined all the advantages that the entire "Anti-Wei Alliance" had gradually accumulated before. As a result, all the efforts made by Han Wangran against Wei were in vain.

But having said that, Chu State has the largest population base in the entire Central Plains, and the country is extremely deep. More importantly, the "Chu East Area" bordering Chu State and Wei State is not very popular with Chu State.

At least 70% of the Chu State's strength is concentrated in the eastern Chu region. For these reasons, Chu State does not need to be too frightened by Wei State's revenge - at least in a short period of time, Wei State will

The country wants to overthrow the Chu State like it overthrew Korea.

Finally, let’s talk about the State of Yue. Although King Shaokang of Yue was also worried about the revenge of the State of Wei, his worries were lighter than those of Qi and Chu. The reason is very simple. The State of Yue and the State of Wei were too far away from each other, and there was still a gap between the two countries of Wei and Yue.

The "Eastern Chu Region" of the Chu State means that if the Wei army can really attack the Yue State, it means that the Chu State has been destroyed.

Since such a powerful state of Chu has been destroyed, it is not far from being overthrown by the Wei army if he crosses the country.

Therefore, there is actually nothing to worry about. The fate of the Yue State has long been tied to the Chu State.

In September of the third year of Wei Zhaowu, Wei State had basically stopped its foreign wars.

Even Wei generals Zhao Jiang and Qu Cheng, who were still attacking Qi, retreated to Julu North County, which nominally belonged to South Korea, under the orders of Tiance Mansion.

The reason is very simple: Wei State has no money and food to continue attacking Qi State.

Some people may say that at this time, Wei State should try its best to attack Qi State, because as long as Qi State is captured, Wei State will be able to obtain sufficient money and food.

But the question is, what if we can’t win?

Although Qi's army is weak, it is still a regular army with more than 200,000 troops. What's more, with Tian Dan, Tian Wu and other generals supervising the battle, how could it be so easily defeated by the Wei army?

What's more, the people of Qi are not fools. If the war situation is unfavorable, wouldn't they set fire to the granary in advance? Will they stupidly leave it to Wei?

It was precisely because of these points that Wei King Zhao Run gave up taking advantage of the victory to attack Qi before Qi had actively sued for peace. The reason was that Wei was not sure of achieving its goal of "obtaining food from Qi" and rashly

Going to war will only make the domestic food shortage situation worse, thereby losing the advantageous situation.

Therefore, Wei King Zhao Run ordered Zhao Jiang and Qu Cheng to lead their troops to retreat to Julu County in South Korea, and asked these two armies to farm in Julu North County to accumulate food. Like this, it would only take one to two years to wait for Wei

The country solves the dilemma of 'food shortage'

Get out, and then raise troops to attack Qi. Even if Qi has generals like Tian Dan and Tian Wu, and even if Qi has more than 200,000 regular troops, it is destined to be unable to stop the army of Wei - in fact, it should be Wei and Han.

The armies of both countries.

The "Eastern Front Battlefield" was temporarily suspended due to the order of Wei King Zhao Run, and the "Western Front Battlefield", that is, the Qin and Wei battlefields, also temporarily came to an end due to the "truce agreement" signed by Qin and Wei. This made Wei finally

Entered a precious period of peace.

Since the "Wei-Korean Arms Confrontation" during the Xing'an Period of the Wei State, seven full years later, the Wei State finally got a precious opportunity to breathe.

Now that the war is over, the first thing Wei needs to do is naturally to "compensate" and "reward".

Pension refers to caring for the soldiers of Wei who died in this war - including militiamen.

According to statistics from the Tiance Mansion and the Ministry of War, the number of regular soldiers Wei lost in this war is as follows:

Sima An's "Hexi Army" suffered 30,000 casualties in battle;

Wei Ji's "Hexi Army" suffered 20,000 casualties in battle;

Zhao Jiang's "Hanoi Army" suffered about 15,000 casualties in battle;

Shaohu's "Wei Wujun" suffered about eight thousand casualties in battle;

Qu Cheng's "Yanling Army" suffered about 11,000 losses in battle;

Pang Huan's "anti-rebel army" suffered about 16,000 casualties in battle;

Bosile's "Jiejiao Cavalry" suffered about 12,000 losses in battle;

Wu Ji's "Shang Shui Army" suffered about 6,000 losses in battle;

Li Ji's "Huling Navy" suffered about 4,000 casualties in the battle;

Jiang Bi's "Shangdang Army" suffered about 6,000 losses in battle;

Zhao Xuan's "Northern First Army" suffered about 12,000 losses in battle;

The "Daliang Imperial Guards" suffered about 23,000 losses in battle;

The "Luoyang Imperial Guard" suffered approximately 7,000 losses in battle.

…

Wei's regular army alone lost more than 170,000 troops this time.

This does not include the private armies of Chengling King Zhao Shen, Shangliang Marquis Zhao Anding and others, does not include the county troops in Song County and Yingshui County, nor does it include the "Sichuan-Luo Cavalry" of the Sichuan-Luo Alliance, and Wei Wang Zhao Run in

The troops lost in the Battle of Daliang.

If the casualties of these auxiliary troops are included, Wei's casualties may have soared to more than 250,000.

If on this basis, we add the casualties of the Wei people in this battle, such as the tens of thousands of Daliang men who died in the "Battle of Daliang", and the Song and Yingshui counties of Wei who were invaded and killed by the coalition forces of various countries.

I am afraid that the number of casualties among the people in the two places will quadruple on top of the 250,000.

Because of this, when Wei Wang Zhao Run saw the rough casualty statistics submitted by Tiance Mansion, his face was livid, and his fingers were slightly green from clenching his fists hard.

Because according to the estimates of Tiance Mansion, the casualties of the Wei army and civilians in this war may be more than the casualties of the coalition forces of other countries, which made Wei King Zhao Run extremely angry.
