In the first year (496 BC), Gou Jian, the king of He Lv, was shot and wounded. He Lv, the king of Wu, learned that Yun Chang was dead, so he sent his troops to attack Yue. In Li (now south of Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province), Gou Jian sent death squads to challenge Wu Jun, lined up in three rows, walked up to Wu Jun and shouted in unison that he would commit suicide. Wu Jun lost in thought. The Vietnamese army took the opportunity to attack Wu Jun, and Wu Jun was defeated. The doctor of Yue attacked the Prince and Lu with Ge, and cut off their thumbs. He Lv, the prince of Wu, was forced to retreat, and the army retreated to Qili. He Lv, the prince of Wu, died of serious injuries. On his deathbed, He Lv, the king of Wu, said to his son Fu Cha, "Don't forget the country." In 494 years before the defeat, Gou Jian heard that Fu Cha, the king of Wu, was preparing to attack the state of Yue day and night. Gou Jian decided to attack the State of Wu first, and then sent his troops. Fan Li dissuaded him, but Gou Jian refused to listen and continued to send his troops. When Fuxi heard about this, he sent all elite troops to attack the Vietnamese army and beat the Vietnamese army out of the water at Fujiao. Gou Jian retreated to Huiji, with only 5,000 troops. Wu Jun went after him and surrounded him.
Trapped in the meeting, Gou Jian sighed and said, "What am I doing at last?" Wen Zhong said, "Tang is the summer platform. In our prison, Jin went to Zhai and Ju. His minions are. If you look at it, why not? "
Fu Cha made peace with Wu in humiliation and banned it. Gou Jian listened to the doctor's literary advice and presented beauty and jewels to Taizaibo, the king of Wu. Bo pleaded with Fu Cha, the prince of Wu, but Wu Zixu dissuaded him. Fu Cha refused to listen, pardoned Yue and went home. Gou Jian entrusted the affairs of state to Wen Zi and came to Wu with his wife and Fan Li. When Gou Jian arrived in Wu, Fu Cha let the couple live in a stone house next to He Lv's tomb and let Gou Jian feed the horses. Fan Li followed closely as a slave. Every time Fu Cha goes out by car, Gou Jian gives him a Lama. After two years, Fu Cha thought that Gou Jian had sincerely surrendered to him and let him go home.
After returning home, Gou Jian never forgot humiliation. Gou Jian hung a gallbladder in his room, every meal.
To taste the bitterness, remind yourself: you can't forget the suffering and humiliation in Wu! He wore coarse clothes and ate, plowed and sowed with the people. Mrs Gou Jian leads women to develop sericulture and weaving. Gou Jian's husband and wife share weal and woe with the people, inspiring the whole country and Qi Xin to make concerted efforts and work hard to destroy the shame of Wu at an early date. Gou Jian also used the minister's suggestion to bribe the prince of Wu and paralyze the other side; Buy the grain of Wu, and make the grain depot empty; Giving wood costs Wu manpower and material resources to build a palace; Spreading rumors, alienating the monarch and ministers of Wu, killing Fu Cha's energy with honey traps, keeping him out of it and killing Wu Zixu. Gou Jian, the king of Yue, also issued a decree to promote the population growth of Yue.

482 years before the invasion, Fu Cha, king of Wu.
He led elite soldiers north to Huangchi Alliance, leaving only the old, the weak and the prince behind. The King of Yue sent 2,000 water troops, 40,000 well-trained soldiers, 6,000 well-educated core guards and 1000 technical officers to attack the State of Wu. Gou Jian took the opportunity to attack Wu, defeated Wu Jun and killed the king of Wu (2,000 disciples, 40,000 priests, 6,000 gentlemen and 1,000 emperors). Wu Shi was defeated and killed the king of Wu. Fu Cha, the king of Wu, returned to China urgently. Yue felt powerless to destroy Wu and forced Wu to make peace. In the first 478 years, the State of Yue led troops to attack Wu again and defeated Wu Jun in Li Ze (see the Battle of Li Ze for details). Since then, Wu has been devastated.
In 476 years before the demise of the State of Wu, Gou Jian, the King of Yue, attacked the State of Wu again. In the first 475 years, the Vietnamese army besieged Wu. In the first 473 years, the Vietnamese army invaded Wudu and the State of Wu perished. Gou Jian, the king of Yue, wanted to exile Fu Cha, the king of Wu, to Yongdong (now Zhoushan) and give him hundreds of families to live in. The King of Wu said, "I am too old to serve the King of Yue. I regret not listening to (Wu Zixu) and putting myself in this situation. " So he committed suicide. The King of Yue destroyed the State of Wu, killed Tai Zaibo because he was unfaithful to the Lord, and then led his troops home. Gou Jian, the King of Yue, was greatly shocked. Following in Wu's footsteps, he led troops across the Huaihe River and joined forces with Qi, Song, Jin, Lu and other governors in Xuzhou (now south of Tengzhou, Shandong). Zhou Tianzi named Gou Jian "Bo" (Ba). At that time, "the Vietnamese army roamed across the river and Huaidong, and the warlord Bi He called it the overlord", but at this time, the Spring and Autumn Period was drawing to a close and the hegemony was coming to an end, and Gou Jian was the last overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Goujian has just destroyed Wu's hegemony, made great contributions and made him a general. However, Fan Li knows that "a great name can't live for a long time" and "it is ominous to be respected for a long time", so he wisely chose to retire after his success. "He will sail with his private disciples at sea and never go against it." Fan Li once sent someone to write a book and said: "Birds are exhausted, so it is good to hide; A sly rabbit dies, but a running dog cooks. The King of Yue is a bird with a long neck. He can share joys and sorrows, but he can't share happiness. Why not go? " Wen Zi didn't listen, and soon Gou Jian gave him a sword to kill himself. According to legend, he lived in seclusion in the Tao (extending in all directions and being the center of the world) and changed his name to. Later, I made a fortune in business and spent a lot of money in this world.
