Chapter Seventy-Two: The Strategy Against Yan

Pang Xuan and Ji Xin are the best candidates in Zhao Dan's heart to be in charge of this battle.

Power comes out of the barrel of a gun, this is the admonition of the great people of the founding of the country to us. Therefore, if Zhao Dan wants to sit on the throne with peace of mind, then there must be real people in the army, not a veteran of the former dynasty like Lian Po Lecheng.

In the long run, this "own person" should be Li Mu. In the short term, Pang Xuan is the best candidate. Because Pang Xuan does not have any foundation within Zhao State, this can guarantee Pang Xuan's loyalty to Zhao Dan, because Pang Xuan can only gain a firm foothold in Zhao State if he is effectively loyal to Zhao Dan and has the support of Zhao Dan.

Someone is about to ask, isn't this Tiandan still there, and Tiandan is not Lian Po's gang, why don't you use Tiandan?

Tian Dan is a person, there is absolutely talent, and this kind of battle of less to more is also Tian Dan's forte back then, but the problem with Tian Dan is that this Du Pingjun is too "in Zhao Guo's heart in Qi".

Let's just say that a few years ago, Tian Dan at that time had just become the prime minister of Zhao State, and then he was appointed as the commander-in-chief by Empress Zhao Wei and led the army to attack Yan State.

As a result, how did Tiandan play? At that time, Tian Dan obviously had an advantage in strength and strength, but he did not attack Yan State, but instead played a sit-down confrontation war with Yan people that was satirized by Tian Dan's political enemies at that time as "protracted".

Why? It's not because Tian Dan is afraid that after Zhao Guo swallows Yan State, Qi State will be in trouble.

But Tian Dan's cleverness is also here, because Tian Dan also laid down a few innocuous small cities in this war, and then successfully dragged down the Yan State, forcing the King of Yan to marry the princess of Zhao State, which can almost be said to have successfully achieved the goal set by Zhao Guo in advance, so that Zhao Sheng and Lin Xiangru These political enemies can't find fault.

With such a criminal record, coupled with the fact that Zhao Dan personally talked to Tian Dan a while ago, he knew clearly that Tian Dan was loyal to the Qi State, so it was impossible for Zhao Dan to use Tian Dan.

Without Tiandan, Le Yi died, and Lian Po couldn't be separated from Changping, so Zhao Dan thought about it, and only Pang Xuan was the most reliable choice.

The reason why Zhao Dan sent Pang Xuan to envoy Yan Guo before, one is because Pang Xuan is indeed a Zongheng family himself, and the other is also a preventive measure, let Pang Xuan understand Yan Guo first, in case Yan Guo really attacks Zhao State, you can let Pang Xuan take command.

Judging from the current situation, Zhao Dan's prevention seems to have really worked.

In addition, Ju Xin himself is also a minister who has been in Yan Country for a long time, although it has been said that he has stepped down for a long time, he must know much more about Yan Country than others.

In this way, Pang Xuan is in charge, supplemented by drama Xin, not to mention whether he can win or not, at least Zhao Dan feels that it should be no problem to hold on for a while.

You must know that in the direction of the two southeastern counties of Qin State, the people of Chu are not hindered at all, and they can fight wherever they want, but Zhao Dan has 50,000 troops who can delay the attack of the Yan people, so if you think about it, the situation of Zhao State seems to be better than that of Qin State.

Of course, these are just Zhao Dan's own thoughts, as for how to fight, we have to see what Pang Xuan and Ji Xin say.

Pang Xuan and Ji Xin glanced at each other, and then Pang Xuan took the lead in speaking.

I saw Pang Xuan facing Zhao Dan Zhengse and said: "Don't worry, in the opinion of the minister, although the Yan army is several times larger than our army, if the king makes the minister lead the army, the minister will return victorious!" ”

As soon as Pang Xuan's words came out, not only Zhao Dan, but even several other ministers of Zhao State in the main hall showed surprised expressions.

50,000 to 200,000, where did you get the confidence to say that you can win?

Pang Xuan obviously already knew that after his words, the monarchs and ministers of Zhao State must have such expressions, so the next explanation was to explain.

"The minister will win in his words, and there are three. At this moment, it is the autumn harvest, and the Yan soldiers must be homesick and unable to concentrate on the battle when they are away from home, which is one of them; The Yan army rushed to attack, and our army had already prepared, so that the prepared was the unprepared, which was the second; Yan Guoxing's unrighteous division violated my Zhao State, and the soldiers and people of my Zhao State will rise up to resist, so that the Yan people cannot advance an inch, this is the third. With these three, then my Zhao Kingdom will win this battle! ”

It must be admitted that Pang Xuan's remarks were impassioned and loud, full of great truth and a sense of déjà vu to resist the invaders, and they were indeed quite incendiary, worthy of the identity of the Zongheng family.

But Zhao Dan smacked his lips, but he also heard a little taste - this old boy, in fact, is to brag about it first, so that the widow can appoint him as the coach, and then the specific battle... In fact, Pang Xuan doesn't have a score now.

This made Zhao Dan a little suspicious for a moment, what a special thing, how could this old man feel as if he was not as reliable as in history? Shouldn't you transfer Le Cheng, who is being the second-in-command for Lian Po, back, anyway, how can that guy Le Cheng also be Le Yi's brother, and he also beat Yan Guo...

Just when Zhao Dan was groaning, the drama Xin beside Pang Xuan also spoke.

"The king, the ministers have lived in the Yan Kingdom for decades, and Rong Worm, Chestnut and other ministers have also met. In the opinion of the ministers, these two people are just boasters, and the Yan army will be defeated by my Zhao Jun if they take these two people as their commanders! ”

Hearing Ji Xin say this, Zhao Dan's originally frowning brows finally stretched out a little.

After all, Ju Xin is also one of the core figures of the Yan Kingdom in the Yan Zhao Dynasty, although it is said that time has passed now, but he still has a certain amount of contacts and influence, and he naturally understands the situation of the Yan Kingdom very well.

After all, the drama has been called a seclusion over the years, but in fact, he lives in a mansion in Wuyang City, instead of going to the mountain pimples like Tao Yuanming to pick chrysanthemums under the fence every day, so there is no less hearing of what should be heard, and no less understanding of what should be understood.

Since the drama Xin said that the two guys Rong Yan and Chestnut Belly are more straw bales, then it should be really not much stronger.

As the saying goes, the soldiers are a nest, and since the two commanders who lead the troops are relatively straw bales, then although this battle should not be taken lightly, it should be quite optimistic.

So after thinking about it, Zhao Dan finally made up his mind and said: "In this case, then pass on the widow order, with Pang Xuan as the general, the governor of the border soldiers of the five northern counties, all matters can be done expediently, and Ji Xin is the deputy general to assist Pang Xuan, you two must work together to ensure that the Yan people do not violate the territory of my Zhao country!" ”

Pang Xuan and Ji Xin were overjoyed when they heard this, bowed to Zhao Dan's heart, and said in unison: "The minister will live up to the king's trust!" ”

Zhao Dan nodded, then turned his head to Zhao Bao on the side and said: "Pingyang Jun, and then pass on the widow's order to the whole country, Fu Bao, Wang Rong, Su Shooter, eat the king's Lu and can't be loyal to the king, and the traitor is also!" If someone holds the head of these three thieves and dedicates it to the widow, the bounty is 10,000, and the knighthood is third-class! But some people are following Fu Bao and others to do things that are traitors, and they will be punished! The eunuch ordered Mixian to assist in this matter. ”

Obviously, Wu Yuanling's surrender to Fu Bao made Zhao Dan really angry, and he had to make an example!

Zhao Bao and Mi Xian also received orders when they heard this: "No." ”

For Zhao Bao, who is the chief secretary, killing people really belongs to him, after all, in the ancient judicial system, the number of people who were killed in a year was probably much more than the number of people shot in ten years in modern times.

Zhao Dan paused, and then turned his gaze to Yu Xin: "Today, Pingyuan Jun has not returned to Wei State, but the affairs of the country must not be presided over by no one, and Yu Qing is ordered to be the prime minister, and temporarily perform the duties of the prime minister until Pingyuan Jun returns to the country." ”

The position of the prime minister is equivalent to the caretaker cabinet prime minister in later generations, and it is a temporary position. The reason why Zhao Dan appointed Yu Xin as the minister at this time was to let Yu Xin take this opportunity to practice his hands, and secondly, when Zhao Sheng was seriously ill outside, the government affairs of Zhao Guo that were now pressing on Zhao Dan were too heavy...

Yu Xin was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, bowed to Zhao Dan, and happily accepted the order.

Although it is said that the Shou Xiang is only temporary, the power is the same as that of the real Xiang Bang! As a courtier, who doesn't want to take this position as a minister?

As long as you do a good job, not to mention replacing Zhao Sheng, at least you can move your position up, right? After all, Lin Xiangru is seriously ill now, but there are many people who covet Lin Xiangru's position in the internal history.

After instructing the ministers, Zhao Dan moved his gaze to Lou Chang again.

Lou Chang's heart couldn't help but be a little excited at this moment, you must know that everyone in the hall now has a task except for Lou Chang, can it be said that he is also going to be entrusted with a heavy task?

As Lou Chang of the imperial history, his status is equivalent to the chief of staff exclusive to Zhao Dan, and he should be Zhao Dan's closest errand runner, but these days Zhao Dan has gradually become estranged from Lou Chang, but it is the eunuch Ling Mixian who has begun to gain power, which has to make Lou Chang have bad thoughts in his heart.

However, Zhao Dan just glanced at Lou Chang coldly, and then stood up.

"Adjournment!"
