As Zhao Kuo's lieutenant general, Wei Chen boasted that he knew a lot about the main general in front of him. Seeing that although the other party's face was calm, it was obvious that there was a war between heaven and man in his heart, so he opened his mouth and said, "I don't know what the general is worried about? ”

"The order changes overnight, and I am afraid of change." Zhao Kuo naturally has nothing to hide from this henchman, and tells the things he considers.

Wei Chen's mind turned, and he immediately understood what Zhao Kuo was worried about, and he said without hesitation: "I'm afraid the general is too worried, although your order to train in leisure time has been carried out very well, but these soldiers below have only been forcibly suppressed by their commander's objections. If the general had changed this order at this time, there would probably have been no objection among the garrison. ”

"What about this group of soldiers under your command?" Zhao Kuo asked rhetorically, if the whole army stopped training, it would be difficult for the elite soldiers under Wei Chen to resist the elite soldiers of the Qin State, it would be really difficult.

Wei Chen's eyes rolled, and then he said: "General, you can merge these 50,000 elite soldiers under the command of the last general into the general's personal guard, and you personally urge them to train, and others will naturally not have any opinions." ”

"No!" Zhao Kuo directly rejected Wei Chen's proposal without the slightest hesitation.

Wei Chen felt that his proposal was already the best proposal, but he didn't know why Zhao Kuo would reject it: "Dare to ask the general why can't?" ”

Zhao Kuo stroked the sword that King Zhao Xiaocheng personally gave him, and said calmly: "I have more than 60,000 guards now, and if you add those 50,000 elite soldiers, it can reach 100,000." Have you ever wondered what the king will think of me if this news reaches Handan, and how will I deal with myself? ”

For the first time, Zhao Kuo felt Lian Po's helplessness at the beginning, Changping is only a few hundred miles away from Handan, and any disturbance in the army can quickly reach the ears of King Zhao Xiaocheng.

His choice to stick to Danzhuling has already violated the order of King Zhao Xiaocheng, and if he is added to the pro-guard system, even if he is the son of Ma Fujun Zhao Hao, I am afraid that he will not be able to ask for anything.

Wei Chen didn't continue, Zhao Kuo's worry was precisely what he didn't think through, and he didn't know what to do now.

Zhao Kuo thought about it for a long time, as if only Wei Chen's opinion was more applicable, he tapped on the table in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"Wei Chen, put your 50,000 soldiers and my guards to a test, and the fittest will be the best. Whoever wins will be included in my personal guards, and the rest will be under your command. ”

Wei Chen didn't expect that his main general would have to compete again, and subconsciously wanted to refuse. But seeing Zhao Kuo's scorching eyes, he finally didn't say anything if he refused: "It's all up to the general." ”

"That's fine, select the most elite troops among the two soldiers to use as a force to fight against the soldiers of the Qin State, and the rest of the soldiers will return to their original state. Well, that's it! ”

Zhao Kuo called Lin Yi, who replaced Wei Yuan as the commander of his own guard, and continued with Wei Chen: "General Wei, you take Lin Yi to merge the two troops in one place and select the most elite troops as soon as possible, understand?" Lin Yi, you have to cooperate with General Wei to complete this work, and General Ben is ready to give you one of the most powerful soldiers! ”

Lin Yi was confused by Zhao Kuo's words, but since the Lord will have orders, he will do it himself. He followed Wei Chen, and as long as Wei Chen let him do whatever he wanted, he would do whatever he wanted.

After the two left, Zhao Kuo's eyes focused on the hanging map again. I'm afraid that at this time, King Zhao Xiaocheng already knew that he had disobeyed his orders in Changping and was furious!

Zhao Kuo's guess was not wrong at all, at this time in the Handan Palace, Zhao Sheng, the king of Pingyuan, and Zhao Bao, the king of Pingyang, were sitting at the hands of Zhao Dan, the king of Zhao Xiaocheng, feeling the thunderous anger of the young monarch.

"In vain, I have such expectations for Zhao Kuo, he dares to disobey the widow. The widow repeatedly ordered him to quickly find an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army, but he still followed Lian Po's old routine. Did he think that the sword of the widow would not dare to cut off his dog's head, and that he would dare to treat the widow like this? ”

Zhao Sheng, the old and serious Plains Jun, waited for Zhao Dan to vent before he spoke: "King, we are hundreds of miles away from the Changping Battlefield, maybe there is something on the front line that makes Zhao Kuo take a stubborn posture again." After all, Zhao Kuo is Ma Fujun's son, so we still have to believe him. ”

King Zhao Xiaocheng threw the bamboo slips on the table to the ground, and said angrily: "Look at it, in the first battle with the Qin army, he broke the deputy general Zhao Yong, such a general is simply stupider than a pig, what's the use of keeping it?" ”

Seeing that King Zhao Xiaocheng's face turned red with anger, Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao hurriedly said: "King, it is normal for the two armies to have casualties in the confrontation, even if Sun Wusheng can't guarantee that there are no casualties under his command." ”

Zhao Sheng also accosted on the side: "Yes, Your Majesty thinks that this matter is really not to blame Zhao Kuo's head, if you want to blame it, you can only blame the sword and gun without eyes." ”

The two old foxes, who have been in the political arena for many years, don't need to read the battle reports on the front line, and they also know what happened to Zhao Yong's death. They were also worried that King Zhao Xiaocheng would have the idea of changing generals again, so they opened their mouths to persuade.

King Zhao Xiaocheng looked at the two uncles in front of him, who were as calm as water, and he didn't know where to send the anger in his heart. For a moment just now, he really had the idea of changing generals, and when he thought of this, he pretended to be casual and said: "If the widow transfers Zhao Kuo from the front line back to Handan now, what do the two uncles think?" ”

When Zhao Bao heard King Zhao Xiaocheng's words, he immediately fell to his knees. He knew the monarch in front of him too well, don't look at his understatement on the surface, in fact, he was able to say this, and he had already thought a lot in his heart: "The king must not be, changing generals in battle has been a taboo for soldiers since ancient times, let alone one after another!" ”

King Zhao Xiaocheng did not answer Zhao Bao's advice, but moved his gaze to Zhao Sheng. Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, felt the firm gaze of King Zhao Xiaocheng, and immediately said in his heart: "Your Majesty, your subordinates can first go to talk to Zhao Kuo instead of the king, and then make plans after your subordinates come back?" ”

Looking at the two uncles who fell to their knees, King Zhao Xiaocheng fell into deep thought. He unconsciously stroked the jade pendant on his waist, and after a long time, he made a decision: "Okay, the widow is giving Zhao Kuo a chance." The newly raised grain and grass have been in place, and Pingyuan Jun personally escorted the grain and grass to the camp in Changping to see what Zhao Kuo's plan is! ”
