On both sides of this narrow Dan River, nearly 900,000 troops of Qin and Zhao were assembled. The two countries launched a super gamble to decide the fate of the two countries for the seventeen cities of Shangdang County.

The two sides had put the last chips on the table, Zhao Kuo took the last reinforcements that Zhao could squeeze out from Handan, and Qin sent Bai Qi, the invincible Wu Anjun, to Changping, hoping that Bai Qi could become the last straw that crushed Zhao.

With such pressure, Zhao Kuo kept grabbing his hair. Even if he wanted to find another way, it was simply impossible to defeat the invincible Qin army in the field.

You must know that among the more than 400,000 troops of the Qin State, there are more than 100,000 cavalry. Although the cavalry of the Qin State was not particularly strong in the Zhao State after the Hufu cavalry shooting, in the place of Changping, the Qin State with 100,000 cavalry had a great advantage.

Zhao Kuo now only has 50,000 cavalry brought over from Handan, and it is too difficult to achieve the strategic goal in the face of the Qin soldiers who formed the phalanx.

After thinking about it for a long time, there was still no idea, Zhao Kuo still decided to put this matter aside first, and walked out of the Chinese army tent at will.

Wei was whipped for his orders, and Zhao Kuo hesitated for a moment and walked to the camp where Wei Yuan lived temporarily.

Before he could walk in, he met Sun Qi, who had just come out of Wei Yuan's tent, and Zhao Kuo stopped him: "Doctor Qi, how is Wei Yuan's injury?" ”

Sun Qi, who was walking with his head down, saw that it was the main general Zhao Kuo who stopped him, and hurriedly said: "General Kuo, General Wei Yuan is in good health, I gave him herbal medicine, and he will be fine after a few days of cultivation." ”

"Well, that's good." Zhao Kuo nodded, said goodbye to Sun Qi and went into Wei Yuan's tent. Before he could speak, he heard a voice from inside.

"Commander, you said that we won the battle, and if the general didn't reward us, it would be okay, and the commander would be punished, what did you say about this!"

"Hey, what is that, haven't you heard? When the king originally selected General Kuo as the chief general of Changping, his mother personally entered the palace to advise the king. I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup General Kuo poured into the king, but he was stunned to take the position of the main general. ”

"Yes, I don't need to let the old and serious General Lian Po go, but use the young and vigorous Zhao Kuo, and I don't know what the king is thinking in his heart."

"Shut up!" When Zhao Kuo was distracted, Wei Yuan's stern reprimand came, "The king's thoughts and General Kuo's private affairs are what you little pawns can speculate, shut up for me!" ”

"Yes, Commander."

Zhao Kuo heard the sound inside the tent and gradually calmed down, standing at the door of the tent, he coughed twice, lifted the curtain and walked in.

Seeing Zhao Kuo who walked in, the few soldiers who were still talking in the camp just now suddenly changed their faces in fright, and they knelt down on one knee and said: "The little ones don't know that the general is here, and they hope that the general will forgive their sins." ”

Wei Yuan looked at Zhao Kuo, whose face was uncertain, and he didn't know how long he had been standing outside the door, whether he had heard the slander of a few soldiers, and got up from the bed with difficulty: "See the general, I don't know why the general suddenly came here?" ”

Zhao Kuo looked at Wei Yuan, who was enduring the pain on his back, and hurriedly helped him back to the bed: "Wei Yuan, you have been whipped, so let's take care of it in bed." ”

Wei Yuan looked at Zhao Kuoyu's unbearable expression, his heart was full of surprise, and he choked up and said: "Wei Yuan is entrusted by the general, and he is willing to accept this punishment!" ”

Zhao Kuo turned his gaze to the few soldiers who bowed their heads and said with a smile: "Why are you so afraid of me?" ”

"No, no, the general is here all of a sudden, and we're a little overwhelmed, well, yes, overwhelmed."

Seeing that they were so nervous, Zhao Kuo naturally knew what they were worried about, and waved his hand casually and said, "Okay, you guys go out, Wei Yuan and I just have a few words to say." ”

When the soldiers heard Zhao Kuo's order, they were suddenly amnesty, and they ran away with a bang, and there was no one left. Zhao Kuo smiled wordlessly and turned his gaze to Wei Yuan, who was lying on the bed.

Wei Yuan saw Zhao Kuo's gaze, and said loudly with his mind turning: "I don't know what the general's order is?" ”

"You've done a good job outside the old gate, I'm very satisfied!" Zhao Kuo stood with his hands in his hands, looked at Wei Yuan and said, "You must know that I can't help myself to do this." If you lose the name of the deputy general, and then let you retreat, I can't pay the difference over there in Handan, understand? ”

"The general said that the last general understands that the last general is favored by the general, and he wants the last general's life, and he must also achieve the goal for the general!" Although Wei Yuan was lying on the bed, he could just swear and say.

Wei Yuan was originally just a slave, but it was the original Zhao Kuo who discovered his unstinting personality and exempted him from slavery and cultivated him as a guard for his cronies.

Changing from a slave to a commoner is simply a grace of reinvention to Wei Yuan, and Zhao Kuo naturally will not doubt the sincerity of his words.

"I remember when you were still in Daijun, how about your riding and archery skills?"

Hearing this, Wei Yuan patted his chest and said proudly: "Don't hide it from the general, when I was in Daijun, it was a peerless cavalry and archery. At the beginning, I thought of joining our army to resist the Huns, but my slave was still alive at the time, and I was ruthlessly rejected. ”

Wei Yuan's experience Zhao Kuo hadn't heard him talk about it, so he hesitated for a moment and said, "How are you better than the cavalry commander Jiang Sheng?" ”

Wei Yuan frowned, although he didn't understand what Zhao Kuo meant when he said this, he still swore and said: "Don't hide it from the general, Jiang Sheng is not enough to worry in front of me, win his minute!" ”

Zhao Kuo patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "This matter is not a joke, you have to really confirm it!" ”

"Don't worry, general, when did I, Wei Yuan, boast about Haikou in front of you? Just trust me! ”

Zhao Kuo squinted his eyes and stared at Wei Yuan, who was full of confidence, until he stared at the other party's heart, and then said: "I have already understood with Doctor Qi before I came, your injury only needs to be healed for a few days, and I will arrange a competition between you and Jiang Sheng at that time, don't embarrass me at that time!" ”

"Huh?" Wei Yuan originally thought that Zhao Kuo just wanted him to join the cavalry, but he didn't expect that there would be a competition with Jiang Sheng, which made him even more confused.

"When the time comes, if you win Jiang Sheng, I will hand over all the 50,000 cavalry to you, I will be of great use, understand?"

Although Wei Yuan didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Zhao Kuo's gourd, when he heard that he could command 50,000 cavalry, he instantly became confident: "Don't worry, general, I will definitely not disgrace the general!" ”
