The cause is because of Xu Guo .
Due to the need of the survival situation, Xu Guo formed an alliance with Jin and maintained diplomatic relations with Chu and , which is a strategy for both sides to please and not offend both sides.
However, the newly succeeded overlord Jin Xianggong did not agree and asked Xu Guo to choose a side station. Xu Guo still looked ambiguous.
So Jin State united Chen State and Zheng State to form a coalition force of the Three Kingdoms to attack Xu State.
King Chu Cheng was also angry and ordered Chu State to order Yin Zi to go to Doubo to lead his troops to fight and also attack Jin State's alliance
friends Chen Guo and Cai Guo . Chen and Cai surrendered quickly and signed a peace treaty with Chu. Zishang Doubo decided to take advantage of the victory to attack Zheng State, so he continued to send troops to Zheng State. When the Chu State Order Yin Zi Shang Dou Bo sent troops to Zheng State, King Cheng of Chu learned from Duke Wen of Jin and pulled Gongzi Xia, the son of Zheng State who was exiled to Chu State, and prepared to launch a coup in Zheng State, so that the pro-Chu State Prince Xia would take the throne to replace the new king of Zheng State who had already ascended the throne.
Duke Wen of Jin placed Gongzilan (now Zheng Mu Duke) in a safe rear at that time. After the war with Zheng State was completed and a peace agreement was reached, the Gongzilan case was delivered to Zheng State, and the service must be provided. However, Chu Manzi's behavior was different from that of the people in the Central Plains. Zi Shang Dou Bo asked Gongzi Xia to sneak into Zheng State to contact Gongzi Xia's old party, and to support him from the inside and outside, and to oust Zheng Mu Duke. This move put Gongzi Xia in a dangerous situation. Sure enough, something happened to Gongzi Xia in the territory of Zheng State, and his confidant guards around him actually tied up Gongzi Xia to inform Zheng State and handed it over to Zheng State authorities.
Zheng State's ruler and ministers and the savages worked together to defend the city and protect the country, resist the Chu army's siege, and at the same time asked Jin State for help.
At that time, the person who led the troops to attack Xu State was the Shangfu of Jin State Yang Chufu .
Yang Chufu was a capable subordinate of Duke Wen of Jin, Zhao Shuai, and later served as the teacher of Duke Wen of Jin, Ji Xiang.
Yang Chufu, before joining Zhao Shuai's team, he served Hu Yan in the team of Hu Yan for three years, but he couldn't make a fortune before he changed to Zhao's team.
Attacking Xu Guo is a good job that will win without any risk. Zhao Shuai won such an opportunity for Yang Chufu to make contributions.
Unexpectedly, the Chu army succeeded one after another, and dealt with Chen and Cai. Now they will meet on the narrow road of Zheng and fight head-on.
Yang Chufu, who received the domestic order, gritted his teeth and led his army to Zheng State. He set up camp on the north bank of the Lishui River. When he was about to send people back to his country to urge the army to eat and food, he received news that something had happened to Gongzixia from Zheng State. I immediately came to the conclusion that there was no need to fight against the Chu army in this battle, and the Chu army had no meaning to fight.
Yang Chufu sent another person to ask Zhao Shui for instructions privately, and received a reply supported by Zhao Shui.
So Yang Chufu had an idea. Immediately send an envoy to the Chu army camp on the other side of the river to send a battle letter with the Chu army's commander Zi Shang:
1. It is meaningless to confront each other like this, so we will have a happy decisive battle;
2. Or our Jin army retreated thirty miles to free up the terrain of the Chu army to deploy a formation, and we will fight;
3. Or your Chu army retreated thirty miles to free up the terrain of the Jin army to deploy a formation, and we will fight.
年0年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是年是� Sun Bo, the subordinate of Zishang, was a little worried, thinking that the Jin people were not from Song people and they were not trustworthy. If we took half of our Chu army to cross the river and launched a half-stream attack, our Chu army would suffer a great loss. It would be better for us to retreat thirty miles and let the Jin army cross the river and line up to fight.
So he agreed that the Chu army would retreat thirty miles.
While the Chu army was retreating, waiting for the Chu army to withdraw and most of the horses were building camps, Yang Chufu organized the entire Jin army to shout out loudly that the Chu army was defeated and the Chu army retreated, and then quickly retreated back to the division.
Chu army commander suffered a loss and then attacked Zheng State. Once the meaning is lost, the food and grass are not enough. When the food and grass in Chu State come, it is simply exhausting, so he decided to withdraw his troops.
Battle of Chengpu , because the then Lingyin Ziyu Chengdechen disobeyed the order of King Cheng of Chu to decide to fight a war with the Jin army, but was defeated, and Ziyu had to commit suicide to apologize; in the battle of Lishui, although the Chu army did not take advantage of the Jin army, they could defeat Chen and Cai, and signed a peace agreement with the two countries, which was considered to have a record, but after returning to Chu, because of the promotion of the Chu prince Xiong Shangchen, King Cheng of Chu still executed Lingyin Zishang in the name of defeat.
Jin and Chu fought twice, and the Chu State defeated two imperial eunuchs.
Soon after, the Chu prince Xiong Shangchen took advantage of the minor political turmoil in the Chu State. The Chu prince Shangchen forced King Cheng of Chu to commit suicide and then usurped the throne, which is known in history as King Mu of Chu .
Because King Mu of Chu usurped the throne, he wanted to stabilize the domestic situation in Chu and did not dare to use troops to foreign countries without authorization. At this moment, Duke Mu of Qin seized the opportunity and launched the "Peng Ya Battle" to avenge the Battle of the Battle of the King of the State of Jin.
