The next morning, seven important ministers of Zhao gathered in the main hall of Longtai in Handan.

Zhao Dan sat on the top throne, looked around at the many ministers of Zhao State present, and said slowly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the widow summoned you and others today to discuss the matter of sending troops. The widow inspected the camps of the Southern Army and the Northern Army respectively in the past two days, and felt that the soldiers of the Central Army had already finished recuperating and recuperating, and it was time to open up the territory to the outside world and make the Zhao State go to the next level! I don't know what you think? ”

Since he had already passed the qi in advance, none of the important ministers of the Zhao State present showed a surprised expression on their faces.

On the contrary, they have been waiting for it for a long time.

Therefore, as soon as Zhao Dan's words fell, Zhao Sheng, the prime minister of Zhao State, immediately spoke: "The king's words are indeed reasonable, since the battle of Hedong County, my elite soldiers of Zhao State have been silent for a year, and it is time to send troops out of Handan, so that the world knows the prestige of Zhao State!" ”

All the important ministers of Zhao State spoke one after another and expressed their approval of the decision to send troops.

After all, the current Zhao State is in full swing, and if you don't take advantage of this time to expand your territory, when will you wait?

Among them, the two military giants, Lian Po and Pang Ran, are the most resolute, and seeing their impatient appearance, they can't wait to go out tomorrow.

Zhao Dan looked at the important ministers of Zhao State in front of him who were full of fighting spirit, and he was also very relieved in his heart, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then according to the opinions of your Qing family, where should the widow use troops next?" ”

Zhao is located in the Central Plains, which can be said to be a typical place of four wars, which also brings a question - there are too many targets that can be hit, which one should be fought first?

The reason why Zhao Dan held a meeting today is to solve this problem.

Lian Po barely hesitated before he spoke: "Great King, in the opinion of the ministers, the Qin State is no longer enough to cause trouble, and the direction of the attack should be placed on the Qi State now, so as not to take the opportunity to regain strength and endanger the Zhao State." ”

Zhao Dan glanced at Lian Po with some amusement, this Lian Po general, who is known as eating and sleeping to fight Qi State, really has a very strong desire to attack Qi State in his heart.

But to be honest, attacking Qi is actually not too bad a choice.

After all, Qi is a very rich country, and in terms of wealth, it can definitely rank among the top three in the Warring States, and if Zhao can win the war with Qi, then it will definitely be able to capture a lot of wealth.

In order to maintain such a huge military force, the financial burden of Zhao State is very heavy, and Yu Xin has cried with Zhao Dan more than once.

But Lian Po's opinion was opposed almost immediately, and it was no one else who objected, it was Xiangbang Zhao Sheng, who had just spoken.

I saw Zhao Sheng shaking his head at Lian Po's opinion, and said very disapprerovingly: "Wu Xinjun's words, Zhao Sheng can't agree with it." Now, although my Zhao State defeated Qin twice in a row in the battle between Changping and Hedong, Qin still has Guanzhong, Hexi, Shangjun, Bashu and half of Nanyang County, both in terms of land area and population, it ranks among the top among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, and it only takes one battle to be able to rise again. How can such a strong enemy be ignored? ”

When Zhao Sheng said this, he waved his hand very resolutely and said: "In my opinion, we should continue to attack the Qin State now until we capture the Qin State Pass, once the Guanzhong falls into the hands of my Zhao State, then the Qin State is really not a problem, and my Zhao State can be attacked and retreated, and its momentum is stronger than the Jin State back then." In this way, why worry that the world is not owned by Zhao Guo? ”

As soon as Lian Po heard this, his eyelids immediately jumped a little hard, and he immediately retorted: "Pingyuan Jun's words are wrong, I think that the Qin State is just a group of barbarians. Even if this barbarian person is included in the Zhao Kingdom, he must be disobedient to the king and disobey discipline, so what's the use of coming? It is better to enter the land of Qi in the east, so that Zhao is truly rich and strong, so that this is the right way to conquer the world! ”

Lian Po and Zhao Sheng insisted on their own words, and they couldn't argue for a while.

In fact, it is not only these two ministers who have their own ideas, but even other ministers have different opinions.

I saw Li Bo say: "Great King, Wei has always been extremely dissatisfied with the subserviency of Zhao in the Three Jin Alliance, and in the previous battle of Hedong County, Wei Wuji disobeyed the king's orders, and now there is information that Wei and Qin are secretly colluding, and Wei should be the target of crusade." ”

Pang Xuan thought for a while, and also said: "King, Korea is now the weakest country among the seven countries, it is better to attack South Korea." ”

These ministers say a word, each has its own idea, each has its own country that wants to attack, and Zhao Dan is also unbearable to make a Longtai hall noisy.

After a while, seeing that these ministers were really arguing, Zhao Dan finally couldn't bear it anymore, knocked on the table in front of him, and shouted: "You are all ministers of Zhao State, what kind of system is it to be so noisy?" ”

In the main hall, it was quiet.

Zhao Dan thought for a while and said, "According to Hu Yiwei's intelligence, the Qin State now sends secret envoys to foreign countries very frequently, and it is obvious that they want to contact the countries and come to the Five Kingdoms to attack Zhao once!" Hmph, at this time, if the widow arbitrarily moves swords against neighboring countries, maybe it will really arouse heavy anger and repeat the mistakes of King Qi back then! ”

Back then, the State of Qi was hegemonic after the decline of the Wei State, and then he came to the top, beat many surrounding countries all over again, and finally directly annexed the Song State to become the strongest in the world, and then the Qin State found an opportunity to contact the other five countries to attack it, and Zhao Dan kept this in mind.

As the so-called wood show and forest wind will blow, what the towering giant tree of Zhao State has to face now is the evil wind of Qin State from the western part of Guanzhong!

When several other ministers of Zhao heard Zhao Dan's words, they first nodded again and again, praising Zhao Dan for having a long-term vision, but they immediately fell into confusion again.

Si Kou Zhao Bao opened his mouth and said to Zhao Dan: "If in the opinion of the king, it is not suitable to attack other countries now, then how can you expand your territory?" ”

When the other ministers heard this, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to Zhao Dan, saying that they wanted to expand their territory, and on the other hand, they said that they couldn't attack other countries to grant the truth, what should they do?

Zhao Dan smiled confidently and said to the ministers of Zhao State present: "Since King Lin Hu ascended the throne, he has not seen the widow for several years, and the widow wants to make King Lin Hu enter the Handan court to see him, if he insists on not coming, then the widow has no choice but to raise a large army to conquer this barbarian tribe and bring Henan into the bag of Zhao State!" ”
