The next day, Gao Yuan first counted the troops and residents who had withdrawn from Daliang, because they were in a hurry when they withdrew from Daliang, and they did not have time to count how many people had been evacuated.

In fact, the losses of the Dai army were also quite large, only 1,257 people were left in the 3,000 Beiwei army, and only 2,413 people were left in the Shengjie army, and more than half of the people were lost, and even the 2,000 auxiliary troops of these two armies also lost nearly 1,000 people, and the Fan Yong army suffered the least casualties, but at this time there were only 6,226 people left.

In total, the casualties of the Dai army reached nearly 6,000 people, and it can be said that since the plateau entered the Daigun, it was also the largest loss of troops.

The Wei soldiers who retreated from Daliang had a total of 35,377 soldiers, and there were 37,723 family members, but only about half of the soldiers had family members, and the family members were mostly young and middle-aged, and there were almost no elderly people over 60 and children under the age of 10, because most of them had died in Daliang City.

In addition, there were also Changjie troops and 5,000 Wei troops stationed in Guiling, so the total number of soldiers and civilians was close to 100,000. And all the Wei soldiers and their families were willing to follow the plateau to settle in Daijun.

Because now the death of Wei is a foregone conclusion, and after more than half a year of fierce fighting, all Wei soldiers are full of hatred for Qin, and naturally they are unwilling to stay in Wei and take over Qin's rule. And these people have no relatives and friends in Qi and Chu, and even if they go, they have no whereabouts. After getting along for more than half a year, Gao Yuan also established a very high prestige among the Wei soldiers and their families, and gained their trust, so it is better to follow Gao Yuan to Dai County.

What surprised the plateau was that more than half of the residents of Guiling were willing to follow the plateau, and it turned out that the Dai army had been stationed here for nearly a year, and had won the hearts of the Wei people, and for decades, the Wei State had been suppressed by the Qin State, so the Wei people had never had a good impression of the Qin State, and they naturally wanted to follow the Dai Army.

In this era, there is no monarch of that country who will refuse the people's refuge, because this can not only obtain a large number of people, but also win a good reputation of the people's hearts, which is really a great thing to kill two birds with one stone, so the plateau is of course not refused, as long as the people who are willing to settle in Daijun with themselves are all accepted, and at the same time promise the people that after arriving in Daijun, they will definitely settle their lives, build houses in the designated place of settlement, and give seeds to open up wasteland and cultivate land. And there are also preferential policies for tax reduction and exemption.

After the people of Guiling learned of the guarantee of the plateau, some of the people who were still hesitant also made up their minds to move to Daijun to settle down and escape from the rule of the Qin army. As a result, 15,600 of the county's more than 20,000 people were willing to go to Daijun.

The number of civilians in this migration has exceeded 100,000, and the number of civilians is about 50,000. However, the Dai army was already familiar with the large-scale organization of population migration, and did not panic at all, first organized the people, arranged vehicles to transport the old, weak, sick and young, all the bulky items were abandoned, and the food and materials were kept and supplied by the army at a unified rate. Young men are responsible for escorting supplies, and women are responsible for cooking and boiling water. The soldiers protect the entire team, while the cavalry is responsible for the security of the middle and long distances on the periphery.

The whole arrangement was carried out in an orderly manner, and the people's army, men, women, and children all performed their own responsibilities and took their places, so on the third day, the brigade left Guiling and set off on the road.

At this time, the Qin army had completely controlled the Great Liang, and distributed troops to collect the place east of the Great Liang of the Wei State, the Great Liang was lost, and the Wei State had actually perished, and in the area east of the Great Liang, there were neither enough troops nor powerful figures, so wherever the Qin army went, the Wei officials everywhere either opened the city and surrendered, or abandoned the city and fled, and no one dared to resist the Qin army.

Guiling is in the easternmost part of the Wei State, and the Qin army is also intentionally or unintentionally, not close to the Guiling area, the brigade of men and horses stopped at a distance of more than 30 miles from Guiling, only sent a small number of scouts, scout cavalry forward, and as soon as they meet the army of the Dai Army, they will immediately retreat. And does not clash with the proxy army.

Although Guiling is only a small county, and the Dai army has lost the support of Jiancheng, after the Qin army occupied Daliang, the workload of dealing with the aftermath was extremely large, and a lot of energy was involved in the Qin army; Second, the tendons that the Qin army had been tightening down had also relaxed, so Wang Jian also knew very well that at this time, it was not the time to engage the Dai army.

In addition, Wang Jian also understands that the Dai army will never stay in Guiling County for a long time, and it will be evacuated in a few days, since this is the case, there is no need to fight with the Dai army, and after the Dai army evacuates, the Qin army will take over Guiling without difficulty, isn't it better? Therefore, the Qin army also waited patiently for the representative army to leave, and of course, the plateau did not make the Qin army wait too long.

Because Guiling County was close to the Weiqi border, after the group set off, after a morning's march, they went to the Maweiqi border and entered the territory of Qi. At this time, Gao Yuan also received news from Zhang Liang, he bought 200,000 stone grain in Taoyi, and at the same time met with Anping Juntian Kezang. Now the two of them are escorting the grain to prepare and join the brigade of the plateau.

Gao Yuan immediately sent Jiang Huanwu to lead a thousand cavalry to meet Zhang Liang and Tian Kezang, while the brigade continued to advance.

In the evening of the same day, Tian Kezhang took the lead in catching up with the plateau's brigade, and at this time the army had already camped and rested, so the plateau received Tian Kezang in the big tent.

The two met, and after seeing that they had finished the ceremony, Gao Yuan said: "In the end, I can't hold the beam, I'm afraid I will disappoint An Pingjun." ”

Tian Kezhang shook his head and said: "Wu Anjun is too sorry, in fact, Wu Anjun was able to defend the lonely city for more than eight months with his own strength, and it was not easy for him to flood the Liang with water from the Qin army, and he could hold it for more than five months, to be honest, when the Qin army attacked the Liang, many of us in Qi thought that the defenders could not hold out for June, and after the Qin army released water to flood the Liang, they thought that they could not hold on to February, so Wu Anjun was able to hold on to the present, which has far exceeded our expectations." After a pause, Tian Kezhang said again: "Now that the Great Liang has been lost, the Wei State has been destroyed, and the Qin State has eliminated the trouble of the henchmen, the national situation will inevitably rise sharply, and which country will be the next target of the Qin State?" ”

Gao Yuan said: "Who will be the next target of the Qin State, I can't say for sure, but in my opinion, it is the most likely that it will be our Daijun." ”

After listening to Gao Yuan's words, Tian Kezang also breathed a sigh of relief, at least the Qin army would not attack the Qi State immediately. It turns out that after the fall of the Wei State, it did cause a lot of panic in the Qi State, although the Qi State has always pursued a good national policy with the Qin State, but mainly because between the Qin and Qi countries, there are still three countries of Han, Zhao and Wei, and there is no territorial border, and the Qi State will not be directly threatened by the Qin State, but now the Qin State has destroyed the three countries of Han, Zhao and Wei, and the territory has been fully bordered by the Qi State, and the border is more than 2,000 miles, to say that the Qin State will not attack the Qi State, I am afraid that few people will believe it.

Moreover, after the destruction of the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei, a large number of people fled to Qi to hide, and these people out of anti-Qin psychology, hoping to push Qi to the front line of confrontation with Qin, so they also hyped it up in Qi, saying that after the destruction of Wei, Qin's next target is Qi, and some people say that Qin Wangzheng has ordered Wang Jian not to return to the army, just stationed in Wei to rest, and wait until next year's New Year, he will attack Qi in a big way. As a result, rumors spread everywhere, people were panicked, and the monarchs and ministers of Qi were also shocked.

Tian Kezang was in charge of the military affairs of Qi State, and he was also a little at a loss at this time, so he personally rushed to Taoyi Lai, hoping to have an interview with the plateau, one is to judge the movements of the Qin army, and the other is to ask the plateau, what should I do next? Therefore, Tian Kezhang asked again: "If the Qin army attacks Daijun, how will Wu Anjun respond?" ”

Gao Yuan said: "Although the Qin State occupied the Wei State, it also paid a lot of price, not only lost a large number of troops, but also consumed a lot of national strength, and the land of the Three Jin Dynasty is not stable now, this time the rebellion of Yingchuan in Han Land can be explained, so the Qin State still needs a certain amount of time to recover its national strength and stabilize the land of the Three Jin Dynasty." I don't think in three or five years, the Qin State will probably not attack Daijun in a big way. ”

Tian Kezhang nodded and said, "So what does Wu Anjun plan to do during this time?" How to prepare to resist the attack of the Qin army? ”

Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "Daijun is located in a remote area, the population is sparse, if you are trapped in one place, sooner or later you will be wiped out by the Qin army, so I can't sit still in Daijun, I will take the initiative to attack Qin next year." ”

Tian Kezang was also taken aback, now that the Qin State does not attack him, everything is already fine, and it is too bold for the plateau to take the initiative to attack the Qin State.

Gao Yuan said: "Actually, I don't really want to attack Qin, but to recover the old land of Zhao, or to capture Yan, only in this way, I have and Qin is now the weakest time of Qin's national strength, so it is also our last chance, if we don't take this opportunity to expand the scope of Daijun and enhance the strength of Daijun, when Qin State eases up this momentum, it is when we face Qin's army, and we still have some internal forces in the old land of Zhao, and Yan's troops are weak, That's why I'm going to send troops from these two directions, but I'm going to use troops on which side, and when to use them, I won't be able to decide until I return to Daijun and consult with the others. ”

Tian Kezhang nodded, because whether it is the plateau to recover the old land of Zhao or to capture Yan State, it can directly border Qi State, become a half-block in front of Qi State, and become a barrier for Qi State, if Qin State wants to attack Qi State, the flank will be attacked by the Dai Army, such a noble is of course beneficial to Qi State, so he said: "Then what does Wu Anjun need me to do in Qi State?" ”
