Chapter 463: Recruiting Hu Ren

Seeing this, Lou Xuan immediately spoke: "Yes, the king, this is not the right to fight against the Wei State, so the minister thought that he could send an envoy to the Wei State to explain, just send a small number of soldiers. One shows the helplessness of Zhao, and the other instigates Wei and Chu to fight a decisive battle, and the war between Chu and Wei is beneficial and harmless to our Zhao State. ”

King Zhao's face was calm, and he did not express any opinion on Lou Chuan and Feiyi's words.

Seeing this, Fei Yi said: "Great King, the minister thinks that since he has promised the State of Chu to send troops to the State of Wei, he must go all out, and he should send a large number of elites to the State of Wei." But at the same time, it should also be explained to the King of Wei, just to say that the Chu State is strong, and I, the Zhao State, are also extremely worried. The king of Chu ignored the threat of the state of Zhao and the state of Qin, but asked the state of Zhao to send troops to the state of Wei, which made the whole state of Zhao very ashamed.

Therefore, the purpose of these armies was not to attack Wei, but to help Wei defeat Chu. For this reason, the direction in which these troops are stationed needs to be deliberately selected, which can not only make Wei not feel too threatened, but also quickly rush to Tengdi. As long as Wei believes it, then Wei can rest assured and boldly go to a decisive battle with Chu. ”

"This..." Lou slowly hesitated: "Sir, if the main force goes to the Wei State, then what should we do with Shangjun, in case the Qin State attacks on a large scale, Shangjun may be difficult to hold." ”

Fei Yi smiled: "Since Shangjun can't hold it, then don't want it." Once Shangjun is difficult to hold, we can also say to the king of Wei that Zhao caused Shangjun to fall in order to help Wei. At that time, could the king of Wei not make a statement to the state of Zhao. This is the way to lose land to Qin but gain land to Wei, and at the same time gain the favor of Wei.

At the same time, we can also use the matter of Shangjun to calmly withdraw from Wei, and Chu will not only not blame us, but will also owe favors because Zhao lost Shangjun, so as to be grateful to us. In this way, it is my Zhao State to use a Shangjun that does more harm than good, and at the same time reaps the friendship between Chu and Wei. ”

Lou slowly looked at King Zhao in surprise when he heard this.

saw that King Zhao smiled, and then shook his head again.

Fei Yi was taken aback and asked, "King, what's wrong with Mo Feichen's words." ”

King Zhao muttered: "Sir's strategy for Chu and Wei, few people think it is feasible. It's just that regarding Shangjun and Qin, the widows are worried that after Qin takes Shangjun lightly, they will think that Zhao is weak and can be bullied, and then they will further attack Zhao. The state of Zhao lost Shangjun, but it still could not satisfy the state of Qin, which was something that the widow did not want to see. ”

Fei Yi arched his hand and said, "What does the king mean?" ”

King Zhao thought for a while, his eyes swept over Fei Yi and Lou Slow's bodies, and then said firmly: "The widow plans to fight a decisive battle with Qin in Shangjun, not to defeat Qin, but to force Qin to retreat, show Zhao's military strength, and make Qin have some concerns." Then, if the widow could make peace with the Qin State on the condition of Shangjun, and then defend himself across the river, it would be even better. ”

Lou Xuan hurriedly persuaded: "Great King, if we send a part of the main force to the Wei State, then we count the coalition army led by the Chu State, and in the face of the main army of the Qin State, we will still fall into the disadvantage." Even if all the Zhao troops from our place are transferred to Shangjun, I'm afraid it will be a relatively reluctant thing to hold on to Shangjun.

However, the army of Daidi is an important force for us to guard against the Hu people and the Zhongshan Kingdom, and if the army of Daidi is transferred, I am afraid that it will be plundered by the Hu people. ”

When King Zhao heard this, he didn't know if it was okay.

The coalition armies of various countries are fighting each other, avoiding war and protecting themselves, helping to defend the city is barely considered elite, if it is out of the city to fight, then it can only fight a tailwind war, such an army can only be regarded as half an army.

The army of Zhao was in three places, the west was a Zhao army led by Le Chi, which was used to defend against Qin, and the central part was the army of the capital Handan, in case of emergency, in addition, Zhao Gu, the acting prime minister, and a Zhao army led by the general Niu Jian were in Daidi, which was used to guard against the Hu people in the north and the Zhongshan Kingdom next to it.

King Zhao muttered: "What Lou Qing said is good, the widow plans to order the general Niu Jian to lead the army of the land to go to Shangjun to fight a decisive battle with the Qin State. ”

"What about the Hu people and Zhongshan Kingdom." Lou asked slowly.

King Zhao opened his mouth and said: "Zhongshan Kingdom is easy to manage, and the few people want to ally with King Yan to deter Zhongshan Kingdom." As for the Hu people, the widow intends to order Zhao Gu to recruit the Hu people of King Lou Fu and King Lin Hu, this time there is no longer a limit on the number of people, as long as they can bring their own weapons and war horses, the widows are all willing to take under their command and let them fight against the Qin army.

The widow can send an order to Zhao Gu, as long as the Hu people are willing to come, the widow will take care of the people's food and the grain and grass of the war horses. Moreover, the head of every Qin soldier was rewarded with half a gold. But if they find nothing on the battlefield, when they return, the widow will also give each of them a hundred pieces of money and five stones of grain.

In this way, it can not only weaken the army of King Linlin Hu of Loufu, but also enhance the strength of my Zhao Kingdom, so why not do it. ”

Lou slowly hesitated and said: "King, recruit Hu people to fight, ordinary herdsmen are okay to say, the key is the herdsmen of King Lou and King Lin Hu, if King Lou Fu and King Lin Hu do not speak, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed." At that time, the strength of King Lou Fu and King Lin Hu still existed, and if it suddenly attacked, and our army was in Shangjun, I was afraid that the land would fall into erosion. ”

King Zhao said heavily: "Therefore, the widow wants to ask Lou Qing to send an envoy to King Lou Fu and King Lin Hu, and use heavy gifts and bribes to persuade them to lead their headquarters and widows to go to Shangjun, as long as they can repel the Qin State, the widow is not only willing to give them a heavy gift, but also willing to give them a city." ”

"This..." After Lou slowly pondered for a moment, he arched his hand and said, "The king, the minister is willing to give it a try." ”

"Okay." King Zhao said with a smile: "Although Lou Qing is relieved, it is good if he can succeed, if he can't, the widow will not be reluctant, but he will only retreat." ”

"Yui." Lou slowly responded.

Then, King Zhao said to Fei Yi: "Sir, you have arranged for envoys to go to Yan and Wei. ”

"Yui." Fat Yi responded.

More than ten days later.

Chen Zhen returned to Tengdi and reported to Xiong Huaiyu: "The king, the minister was ordered to send envoys to Zhao and Han, and he has persuaded Zhao and Han to live up to his mission. The king of Han and the king of Zhao all agreed to send troops to the Wei state, and the king of Zhao had promised to expel the Wei army, and before the minister returned to Tengdi, the Wei army in Shangjun had been expelled by the three kingdoms of Chu, Zhao and Han.

Now, the state of Wei is under attack by other countries and is no longer under the protection of several of our countries. ”

Xiong Huai was overjoyed and said, "Okay, there is Lao Chenqing." ”

Getting the news that Chen Zhen brought back, Xiong Huai was immediately relieved.

According to the close relationship between the Three Jin Dynasty, even if Zhao and Han agreed to the Chu State to send troops to the Wei State, they would procrastinate, and even, in order to maintain the friendly relations between the Three Jin Dynasty, perhaps, at this moment, the envoys of Zhao and Han were already on their way to Tengdi.

At that time, as long as Zhao and Han persuaded peace, then Chu could take advantage of Wei, and after subduing Wei, he calmly retreated from Tengdi.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai was in a good mood.
