The news of the destruction of Suiyang City only took one day to reach Zhao Dan's desk in Handan City.

"Suiyang City is broken, and the prince of Wei is safe and sound?" Zhao Dan was overjoyed when he heard this.

Several important ministers of Zhao State on the side also had different expressions when they heard this, and Lian Po couldn't help but ask: "King, the old minister has something unclear, isn't the king going to destroy the Wei State in this battle, why do you want to leave Prince Wei alive?" ”

Just from the joy that Zhao Dan felt when he heard that Prince Zeng was alive just now, it can be seen that Zhao Dan will definitely not kill this Prince Zeng.

Zhao Dan smiled and said: "What the general said is true, the widow is indeed going to destroy the Wei State, but the demise of the Wei State does not mean that the crown prince will definitely be in a different place." ”

In fact, the destruction of the country in this era, especially when the last monarch of a great country was destroyed, was relatively dignified.

Not to mention anything else, for example, later generations usually believed that the division of the three families into Jin was the starting point of the Warring States Period, but did the Jin state perish when the three families of Wei, Zhao and Han were officially canonized as princes by the King of Zhou in 403 BC?

Not really.

In fact, the Jin State still existed after the three Jin families, but the monarch of the Jin State was exiled from the national capital Quwo, and only kept a small and insignificant fief.

It was not until 54 years later, in 349 BC, that the three families of Wei, Zhao and Han finally divided the last bit of land of the Jin State and abolished the Jing Gong of Jin as a common man.

This approach seems to be a bit of a drag, giving the Jin State the possibility and opportunity to fight back, but in fact, it also has its benefits.

After all, the Jin State at that time was still the nominal monarch and occupied the name of righteousness, and there were still people who were willing to follow the Jin State.

Therefore, the three families of Wei, Zhao and Han did not kill the monarch of the Jin State, which could give those courtiers who were willing to follow the Jin State a reassurance, knowing that these three families would not be killed, so they naturally extinguished the mind of fighting to the death with the three families.

After a few decades, the prestige of the Jin State has long been gone, and those courtiers who are loyal to the Jin State are also dead, and at this time, if the Jin State is destroyed, there will be no more splashes.

Zhao Dan now intends to use such means, he is ready to give the city of Anyi, Hedong County, thousands of miles away, to the crown prince Zeng, the future king of Wei, and then annex all the other Wei lands.

In this way, although the Wei State still exists in name, it is actually the same as the Jin State back then, and it has already perished.

Some people say, isn't this especially when XX and set up a memorial arch?

Indeed, who made the people of the world really eat this?

If you don't believe it, let's take a look at another negative example, this negative example is none other than the Qin Shi Huang, who is known as the first emperor of the ages.

How did Qin Shi Huang deal with his defeated generals and the monarchs of the Six Kingdoms?

Zhao Wangqian was moved to Fangling, lived in a thatched house, and starved to death.

The king of Wei faked surrender and was killed.

The king of Chu was captured, crowned with the crime of killing the king, and disappeared mysteriously.

Yan Wangxi was captured and mysteriously disappeared.

Qi Wangjian was exiled and starved to death.

Han Wangan was killed for being involved in the rebellion.

All the monarchs of the six kingdoms are not allowed to die well.

This led to a point, that is, when Qin Shi Huang died, the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms launched a swift super counterattack almost immediately, and in just a few years, the entire east of Hangu Pass of the Qin State was full of rebellions, among which there were immortal heroes like Xiang Yu from the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms, and finally single-handedly buried the short-lived Qin Dynasty.

After Zhao Dan summed up this experience with history as a mirror, he felt that killing and Huairou actually had their own advantages and disadvantages, but in terms of the situation that Zhao Guo was facing now, it was naturally better to be Huairou.

Not to mention anything else, if all the Wei royal families are directly wiped out, which of the other five countries will dare to surrender to Zhao in the future? It must be a fight to the death, and there is a lot of unnecessary damage out of thin air.

On the other hand, as long as these monarchs all surrender, how to rectify them at that time is not a matter of Zhao Dan's words?

Of course, Zhao Dan was not ready to explain these things to Lian Po, Lian Po saw that Zhao Dan looked confident, and Yu Xin on the side slammed his eyes again, so naturally he would not continue to ask.

So, the next day, Handan City immediately drafted a notice to the world, that is, King Zhao was ordered by heaven to crusade against Duan Ganzi, an unreasonable rebel, and now it has been completed, thanks to CCT...... No, it's thanks to the strong support of all countries, and we'll see you next time.

Two days later, a circular drafted in the name of the crown prince of Wei was also issued in Suiyang City, which first thanked the king of Zhao and the righteous division of the princes for helping Wei to eliminate Duan Ganzi as a scourge, and then ordered all officials in Wei to immediately lay down their arms and accept the entry of the Six-Nation Alliance, otherwise it would be regarded as a rebellion, and the Prince of Wei would ask the leader of the Six-Nation Alliance, Zhao, to exterminate the rebels.

Then, of course, Handan of Zhao issued another notice, saying that at the request of the prince of Wei, the Zhao army would be stationed in the territory of Wei until all rebellions in Wei were eliminated.

By this time, the entire continent had actually understood Zhao Guo's intentions.

"This King Zhao wants to annex the Wei State!" The kings spoke openly and secretly to their ministers.

In fact, this is also the result that Zhao Dan wants, after all, this kind of thing is used to coax the people below, and it must not be hidden from other princes.

But Zhao Dan is also full of confidence now, after all, he has two allies of Han Chu in his hands, which is not false at all!

According to the prior agreement of the three kingdoms of Zhao, Han and Chu, all the land due to Zhao has been taken, unless Korea and Chu are willing to give their share of land to Wei Guoguo, otherwise the existence of Wei will be a foregone conclusion!

Sure enough, after these notices, most of the Wei city guards and county commanders joined Suiyang City, and Zhao began to send a large number of troops to these annexed cities.

After half a month, except for Shouchun and a small part of the land north of the Huai River, the entire Wei state had been incorporated into the territory of the Zhao state.

Tian Chong, the general of Wei in Shouchun, is also a bloody person, he did not surrender, but announced to the world that the people of Zhao had taken the prince hostage and wanted to annex Wei, so unless the Zhao army completely withdrew from the land in Wei, Tian Chong would lead 100,000 soldiers under his command to insist on fighting with Zhao until the last moment!

For Tian Chong's behavior, Zhao Dan felt great from the bottom of his heart, and then gave an order.

"The Department of Destiny Le Cheng went south from Suiyang and destroyed Tian Chong!"

Three days later, the main force of the 100,000 Zhao army, under the leadership of Le Cheng, moved south from Suiyang City and went straight to Shouchun, the last big city of Wei.

The ambitious monarchs and ministers of Zhao are ready to use the fall of Shouchun City to announce the official opening of the battle for the unification of Zhao State!
