Chapter 469: Northern Storm

After a pause, Chen Zhen spoke again: "Although the news from the northern part of the Yan Kingdom has not yet come, the minister cannot verify the truth of this matter. However, the news from the side of Zhongshan Kingdom that the King of Zhongshan seems to have signs of recruiting troops. Perhaps Zhao Guo also got this news, and King Zhao was worried that Zhongshan Guo would take advantage of the situation, so he was in a hurry to make peace with Qin State. ”

Xiong Huai let out a light "um", noncommittal to Chen Zhen's words, but in his heart he was thinking about the pros and cons of this matter to the Chu State.

In the case of Zhao's great victory over Qin, Wei did not give in to all countries, and now Zhao took the initiative to sue for peace with Qin, and after Qin and Zhao negotiated peace, then Wei would not give in.

Thinking of the changes in Zhongshan Kingdom, Xiong Huai couldn't help frowning.

If there is no movement in Zhongshan, the king of Zhao can send troops to reinforce the state again, and with the ambition of the state of Zhao to defend the country, I am afraid that the king of Wei will take the initiative to seek peace with the state of Chu.

It's just that now it seems that maybe after King Zhao retreats from Shangjun, he will immediately transfer back the army of Daidi, and will not reinforce Zhao Cheng, who is defending the country.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai let out a long sigh.

On the other side, Tang Yu saw that the King of Chu was deep in thought, waited for a while, and heard the sigh of the King of Chu, and then spoke: "Great King, Qin Zhao Yihe has advantages and disadvantages for our Chu State to withdraw its troops from Tengcheng. Naturally, there is no need to mention the drawbacks, which will definitely restore the morale of the Wei army, but at the same time, it will also bring us a great benefit. ”

Xiong Huai perked up and asked, "What is the best strategy for the defeat?" ”

Tang Yu replied, "Great King, we may be able to unite the Qin State now. ”

"Qin State?" Xiong Huai was stunned.

Tang Yu nodded: "Great King, now that the Qin State and the Zhao State have negotiated peace, they have been idle. At the same time, the Wei state had already transferred the defenders of Puyang to Yanling to guard against our Chu-Han coalition army, so that the western part of the Wei state was empty. If the king sent an envoy to Qin at this time, and asked Qin to send troops to attack Wei on the condition of Shangnan, then Wei would inevitably cede land and sue for peace. ”

"This..."

Listening to Tang Yu's words, Xiong Huai was stunned.

In the current situation, if the Qin State attacked Puyang at this time, then the Wei State's Fenyin Puyang defense line would definitely be lost. In this way, King Wei will definitely not be able to stabilize.

As for the previous plan to blockade the Qin State together with the Three Jins, it will naturally lose its effect.

However, under the premise that the State of Chu is preparing to attack the State of Yue, the more chaotic the other countries are, the better, and it is best to make a mess, so that it is convenient for the State of Chu to make a move.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai immediately spoke: "What Si Yu said is good, since this is the case, then send someone to the Qin State to discuss the matter of the alliance between Qin and Chu." In addition, Wei betrayed the widow Chu state, and the widow was very dissatisfied, so he asked the Qin state to teach Wei a lesson. ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhen came out and said, "Great King, the minister is willing to go to the Qin State and let the two countries form an alliance." ”

"Okay." Xiong Huai nodded: "Then there is Mr. Lao." ”

Just as Chen Zhen was on his way to Qin, Zhao was on his side, and Qin and Zhao officially made peace.

After the Qin State accepted the two counties of Shangjun and withdrew its troops, King Zhao left Le Chi to lead the Zhao army and the allied forces to defend the Qin State, and then led the Zhao army of Daidi to return.

Just when King Zhao was about to arrive in Handan, he got a shocking news that almost knocked King Zhao out of the army.

"King Zhongshan united with King Lou and King Lin Hu, who had not long returned to the tribe, and when the army of Zhao State did not return and the army of Yan State went north to fight with the Donghu people, he sent troops to attack Daidi!

Acting Prime Minister Zhao Gu's strength is insufficient, and because the crown prince Zhang is still in the Daiwangcheng, he can only concentrate his troops to defend the Daiwangcheng for self-protection, and other places, except for a few county seats, have all fallenΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

Hearing this news, King Zhao was stunned.

It took a long time to come back to my senses.

After a short period of thought, King Zhao immediately summoned the general Niu Jian and the general Dai Tuo who accompanied the army, and said with a heavy face: "The two generals, Zhao Gu, the acting prime minister, came to report, and the Zhongshan Kingdom united with the king of Lou Fu and the king of Lin Hu to attack the land, and the land was ravaged and in chaos. ”

"This..." Niu Jian and Dai Tuo were all stunned when they heard this.

The news was so sudden that they didn't react to it.

King Zhao didn't immediately pay attention to the sluggishness of the two, and directly ordered: "General Niu, the widow wants to worship you as the main general, and lead 100,000 Zhao troops to return to Daidi immediately, without having to fight a decisive battle with the enemy army, and the first thing is to stabilize Daidi and contain their tripartite alliance." ”

As soon as he heard King Zhao speak, Niu Jian immediately came back to his senses and responded loudly: "The minister has orders." ”

After a pause, Niu Jian spoke again: "King, now that the land is dangerous, do you want the minister to send the prince back to Handan first?" ”

The crown prince of Zhao was sent to Daidi by King Zhao to hone because of the previous change of law, and he has been in Daiwangcheng all the time, and he was not taken back to Handan.

Before King Zhao transferred troops from Daidi, all the main forces of Daidi were transferred, and now Daidi's strength is too weak.

Now that the land is suffering from war, Niu Jian is a little worried about the safety of Prince Zhang.

In the midst of the war, the safety of Prince Zhang is not a trivial matter, and it will also contain a part of the Zhao army.

King Zhao thought for a while, frowned, with a worried look on his face, and after a while, he shook his head and said: "Now that the land is being attacked by the enemy, how can the crown prince, as the heir of the Zhao State, escape from the battle, there is no need to mention this matter." ”

Niu Jian was stunned and responded: "Only." ”

Then, King Zhao said to Dai Tuo: "General, the widow wants to ask the general to immediately lead the cavalry to the north to contain the army of King Lin Hu and King Lou Fu, and not let them wantonly plunder the land." ”

Dai Tuo replied: "Please rest assured that the king will complete the task." ”

King Zhao nodded: "Okay, emergency rescue is like fighting fire, please ask the two generals to set off immediately." ”

"Yui."

Soon after, the mighty Zhao army was divided into three, and he quickly headed north with 5,000 cavalry, while the main force led by General Niu followed closely.

On the other side, King Zhao broke away from the army with hundreds of guards and went straight to Handan.

Two hours later, King Zhao galloped dozens of miles with his guards and horses, and finally arrived in Handan before sunset.

Zhao Gongzhong.

King Zhao sat on the throne, looked at Zhao Wen Feiyi Lou and the three of them with a tired face and endless worry, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Xiangguo Zhao Wen with a cold face: "Xiangguo, what is going on with Daidi?" Also, why did King Lou Fu and King Lin Hu suddenly attack Daidi with Zhongshan Kingdom. ”

Zhao Wen hurriedly responded: "Great King, since the Great King led the army of Daidi to Shangjun for reinforcements, there has been an abnormal movement in Zhongshan Kingdom. It's just because of Yan Guo that Zhongshan Guo has no actual action. Later, there was an accident in the north of Yan Kingdom, and Zhongshan Kingdom was ready to move.

Then, King Lou Fu and King Lin Hu returned, and King Lou Fu was dissatisfied with our Zhao State because of his great losses in Shangjun. After the king of Zhongshan, who had always been related to the king of Lou Fu, learned of this, he immediately went to unite the king of Lou Fu, and the two sides hit it off. ”

"King Zhongshan, King Loufu, King Linhu." Three names burst out of King Zhao's mouth, and then, King Zhao snorted coldly, full of annoyance.
