Jiang Guo was originally a small country, and its ruler, Jiang Wengong, was not even a king. When he heard that the Prince of Yu was coming with a large army to recover lost territory, he didn't even dare to resist, and respectfully handed over the city of Zhong to him with both hands.
However, Xiao Jinyuan did not come all the way just to retrieve one city.
Riding on iron horses, Xiao Jinyuan directly annihilated the entire Jiang Kingdom and merged its land into the territory of the Yu Kingdom.
This battle directly alarmed the world.
The previous year, the Marquis of Yu had just established his court, and the following year he conquered a neighboring small country. The ambition of the Marquis of Yu can be seen from this.
However, the geographical environment of Yu state meant that other large countries could not stop its expansion. Between Lu Guo and Yu Guo, there was still another country - Zhang Guo. While Zhang Guo has now been annexed by Lu Guo, before Lu Guo completely controlled Zhang Guo, it would not launch a war against Yu Guo. This is because next to Lu Guo is a vassal state that poses a greater threat to Yu Guo than Lu Guo itself.
Apart from Luguo, Yuguo is too far away from Yugu, and the Yuguo general should not laugh at helping the Yuhuang in the war... the powerful Chu country has an alliance with Yugu.
Moreover, when it comes to ambition, the other top-tier feudal states are the real well-known ones. Not to mention there are also some second-tier feudal states that are eager to move. For those feudal states without ambition, they are facing extinction.
The ambition of the state of Yu and the potential it has shown have indeed raised the alert of various countries throughout the world, but it has yet to become the primary threat of the powerful vassal states.
The State of Song, a vassal state that had occupied two cities of the State of Yu, still held a glimmer of hope when the Duke of Yu went out for spring expedition and formed an alliance with neighboring small states. However, as soon as the State of Jiang was defeated, they were frightened and voluntarily surrendered the cities they had taken, not only returning the two occupied states to the State of Yu, but also humbly offering two cities as compensation by presenting a letter of surrender in advance.
Song had to do so because Yu's strong stance and alliance with Chu had frightened small states that had allied with Song, causing them to cancel their alliances with Song and actively seek to be friendly with Yu.
In troubled times, small countries without the ability to fight must not be too proud. If they don't know how to behave, they will perish even faster.
Xiao Jin accepted two cities given by the Song country. Although he wished to use this opportunity to destroy Song, he couldn't bite off more than he could chew. Fully digesting one Jiāng country was already his limit, and swallowing Song would cause indigestion and have more costs than benefits. Swallowing these countries was not to destroy them, but to make them part of the state of Yù, and build a strong and powerful country.
Rest and recuperation are the way for Yuguó to go after quelling the internal rebellion.
After the victory celebration banquet, Jun Mo Xiao is going back to Yuguo, and Xiao Jin sees him off for three li.
"General Jun, I'll be waiting for your return here. Let's create a great cause together!"
Kunmo smiled sitting on horseback, did not answer, only raised his fist to Xiao Jin, then turned his horse's head and left.
He brought 8,000 soldiers from the country of Yu, and only more than 7,000 remained when he returned.
Despite the loss, compared with his record, this loss is the best achievement in General Jun Mo Xiao's career.
On the river, the big ship of the Kingdom of Yu was docked there, with the large flag of Yu flying prominently at the bow.
Kun Mo Xiao turned around and looked at his soldiers. They too were occasionally turning their heads to look back towards the direction of the Prince of Yu's city.
After half a year of being together, fighting together and sharing life and death experiences, drinking together at victory banquets, the soldiers of Yu had a deep attachment to the departing kingdom.
They looked back at the vibrant city of the king, who was also the revered warrior on the battlefield, resembling a towering mountain. It was that very king who spurred them to rediscover their pride as soldiers.
"General, let's go, it's getting late," the deputy reminded Jun Mo Xiao.
Jun Mo Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Board the ship!"
A black flag with the character "Jun" rose on the bow, and the large ship sailed towards the state of Yu.
