Chapter 320: The Battle Begins

Yingdu.

"King, there's news from Handan." When Chen Zhen learned that things had taken a turn in Zhao and immediately reported it to the king of Chu.

"Not long ago, King Zhao personally went to Gongzi Cheng's mansion to explain the importance of changing the law to Gongzi Cheng, and the next day Gongzi Cheng wore a Hu costume to meet King Zhao, and King Zhao worshiped Gongzi and became a general."

"After that, King Zhao went to Gongzi Wen's mansion in person again, and then, Gongzi Wen worshiped King Zhao and was entrusted by King Zhao to reuse."

"Now, King Zhao has persuaded the ministers of Handan that under the leadership of Gongzi Cheng and other clans, Hufu has been promoted in Handan."

Xiong Huai looked at Chen Zhen suspiciously, and wondered: "Chen Qing, this is not quite right, Zhao Cheng and Zhao Wen were easily bought by King Zhao." โ€

"What made a fuss before, was it just to raise the price so that I could sell myself at a good price."

Chen Zhen looked at the King of Chu with a little embarrassment, and he didn't like what he said, as if what the Zhao State Sect was doing was like selling himself.

"King, things will naturally not be so simple, although Gongzi Cheng gave in to King Zhao, but King Zhao also made concessions." After a pause, Chen Zhen continued: "King Zhao has improved the Hufu and changed the original Hufu from the left to the right, so as to show that King Zhao still does not forget his roots and will not follow the example of the barbarian left. โ€

Xiong Huai nodded, and King Zhao gave in on one point, which indeed greatly eliminated the resistance of the ministers. Zuo Wei is also found in Chinese costumes, but, in general, this is for the dead!

And now, there is no country that does not believe in ghosts and gods.

Chen Zhen continued: "In addition, King Zhao also made a concession in the court meeting, that is, when going to the court, the minister does not have to wear Hu clothes to the court. However, if it is in the army, then the soldiers of Zhao must change to wear Hu clothes. โ€

"As for the people of Handan, judging from the information collected by Handan, except for many Hu people who changed into Chinese clothes and wore the original Hu clothes, the ordinary people of Zhao were still full of rejection of Hu clothes, and did not obey King Zhao's orders and changed to Hu clothes."

"And the king of Zhao did not force the people to change to wear Hu clothes, but for officials other than Handan, the king of Zhao has officially issued an edict that they must wear Hu clothes for a period of time to show the determination of Zhao to reform and guide the people of Zhao State."

Xiong Huai nodded when he heard this.

This makes sense, otherwise, the things that were originally in a uproar were compromised so easily, which not only made the people of the world despise the clan of Zhao State, but also made Zhao State discredited from now on.

As for those people who are still resisting, whether they are pedantic or conservative, but between this rolling trend, it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

What's more, Cang Liao knows etiquette enough, clothes are etiquette for nobles, but where are commoners, this is just a shelter for warmth, how convenient and how to come.

Just when Xiong Huai and Chen Zhen continued to discuss Zhao Guo's change, suddenly, Li Qiu came to report: "King, Sima asks to see." โ€

"Sima?" Xiong Huai was stunned for a moment, and immediately ordered: "Pass." โ€

"No."

Soon, Zhao Ju walked in from outside, and when he saw that Chen Zhen was also there, he was not surprised, and arched his hand: "Great King, there is news from the Qin State, not long ago, the Qin State sent 100,000 troops to attack the Wei State, and has surrounded the Shaoliang State of Wei. โ€

"What?" Xiong Huai was taken aback when he heard this, he thought that the Qin State would take the opportunity to attack the Zhao State and intend to recapture Shangjun from the Zhao State, but the result was often unexpected.

But it's right to think about it, now that there is a problem in Zhao State, all countries are all on Zhao State, and Zhao State itself is also ready for war, at this time, instead of attacking Zhao, it is better to take the opportunity to attack the lively Wei State on the side.

With the intention to take advantage of the unintentional, the result can be imagined.

Xiong Huai immediately asked, "Sima, has Wei sent someone to ask for help now?" โ€

Zhao Ju shook his head: "Back to the king, the minister has not received the news yet. โ€

Saying that, Zhao Ju looked at Chen Zhen: "Assassin Shi Ling, you have always been well-informed about the news, I don't know if you have found out if Wei has sent an envoy to ask for help." โ€

Hearing this, Chen Zhen arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the minister will immediately go to investigate." โ€

"Good!" Xiong Huai replied.

Wei State Liang.

At this time, Lou Su said to King Wei with a strange face: "King, there is news from Shaoliang, Shaoliang is surrounded, Shaoliang Shou sent someone to ask for help, saying that the Qin army is attacking fiercely, and he can't stop it, so please send reinforcements to the king quickly." โ€

"In addition, news has come from Xiwu, Fenyin is solid, please don't worry!"

King Wei nodded, and then smiled coldly: "Could it be that the people of the Qin Kingdom think that the widow is stupid and send people to rescue, isn't this just a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?" โ€

For Shaoliang, the Wei State had no intention of asking for it, and after collecting taxes for a few months, it was already considered a little floating wealth, and now since the Qin State wants it, then take it.

Now, King Wei was worried about another thing in his heart, and thinking about it, he asked Lou Su: "Xiangguo, now that the Qin State is pretending to surround Shaoliang, no one expects that the Qin State is not luring the Wei State, but is preparing to wait for an opportunity to attack the Zhao State. โ€

"Xiangguo, should you be a widow and should remind King Zhao, or should you pretend not to know about this and sit back and watch Zhao Guo be attacked?"

Lou Yu thought for a while and said: "King, last time Zhao got half of Shangjun, but my Wei State gained nothing, the strength of Zhao State is not good for Wei State." โ€

"Besides, if we remind King Zhao, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to explain our actions in Shaoliang to other countries."

"Therefore, in the opinion of the minister, it is better to pretend not to know about this matter, and you can also take the opportunity to weaken the Zhao State!"

After pondering for a moment, King Wei nodded and said: "What Xiangguo said is extremely true, King Zhao did not listen to the words of the widow, insisted on changing the law, and now it is causing disaster, which is also caused by Zhao Guo, so the widow will wait and see what happens." โ€

"The king is wise!"

Qin soldiers besieged Shaoliang for a few days.

Wei Zhangshuai's 150,000 Qin troops smuggled into Yanshui, and under the carelessness of the Zhao army, he took a county seat lightly, and then, the soldiers pointed directly at the Shangjun Governor's Office.

Although under the strategy of the Qin army's attack from the east to the west, the garrison of Shangjun was somewhat relaxed, but the preparations made by Zhao State before, stationed 100,000 troops in Shangjun to defend Qin. Although people were panicked because of the change of the law, fortunately, the huge number of people still played a great role.

Therefore, the general Lechi sits in the city of Fushi, and people stick to the river crossing, and there is no danger of the city being broken in a short time.

The Qin army attacked Zhao for ten days, broke four counties, and surrounded the soldiers.

The news of the Qin army's attack on Zhao reached various countries, and it immediately dazzled all countries.

Chu.

When Xiong Huai learned about this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The result has been obvious, Qin's invasion of Wei is a disguise, and the goal of defeating Zhao is the goal.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai's eyes couldn't help but show a look of banter, Zhao Guo will fully roll out the change, and the Qin State will kill Zhao over there, which is another good show.

Xiong Huai asked, "Sima, I don't know where the 90,000 allied troops in Luoyi have gone now?" โ€

The 90,000 allied troops in Xiong Huai's mouth are the guards of the Son of Heaven stationed in Luoyi, and the allied forces of Chu and Sanjin are used to help countries defend.

Zhao Ju opened his mouth and replied: "King, before the siege of Shaoliang of Wei State, General Zhao should have received a request for help from the King of Wei, so he led 90,000 allied troops to the rescue. โ€

"Later, the Qin State attacked the Zhao State, and after deliberation, the generals decided to divide the coalition army into two, of which 40,000 coalition troops rescued Wei and 50,000 coalition troops rescued Zhao."

"Estimating the marching speed of the army, it must still be in the territory of Wei now. As for Shangjun, it is too far away, and it should take more than ten days to reach Fushi. But fortunately, the Zhao army was prepared, and the 100,000 Zhao army insisted on the skin, which was enough to protect the city for a month or two, and the time was enough. โ€

Xiong Huai nodded when he heard this, although the Qin army was fierce, but the Zhao army was defending the city, and the Qin army not only had no advantages, but also had a lot of disadvantages.

As long as Le Chi did not go out of the city to fight with the Qin army, then when the reinforcements of the Zhao State arrived in Shangjun, the war would be fought.
