With Zhao's many encounters, another form of alliance between the four countries gradually had a clear plan. When the news that the Chu Dynasty would never attack the Wei State, but that Yin Caiwen of Xia Cai County would serve as the Wei Prime Minister at the request of the Wei State, Ge De and his entourage, who had returned to Zhao from Linzi, finally arrived at Jize, more than 20 miles east of Handan.

It flows out of Busan, flows southwest of Handan, and joins a tributary of the Yellow River through Jize and through Jize to the Yellow River. When the boat team turned from the tributary into the water, the Qin army repulsed the cavalry and watched on the other side of the tributary. At this time, a flag was fluttering at the Fushui Wharf, and Zhao Qian, the king of Zhao, accompanied by the Lingyuan, used the Lu Lijing to look closely at the boat team that was getting closer and closer. On either side of him stood many courtiers and temple people, and Taifu Guo Kai was also among them. A fly suddenly flew in his face, so that he couldn't fight, and he couldn't fight it.

"Queen Mother, the child hasn't found Xin Pingjun?" Of course, Zhao Qianjiao greeted Ge De, he was to welcome Lian Po.

After Ge De asked Lian Po to return to Zhao, Chu Chen, who was vaguely xenophobic, did not object to this, and after some discussion, he finally placed the northern city of Daliang under the jurisdiction of Xiang Yan. Both Chu and Qi hoped that Lian Po would return to Zhao, but the premise for returning to Zhao was that Lian Po would obtain half of Zhao's military power and be tied with Li Mu as a general. The two countries believe that there is a good deal, and Zhao will only fight to the death with Qin, and will never bribe Qin.

Chu Qi's hope is here, and Zhao hopes to get the rescue of Chu and Qi, and it is best to send troops, followed by grain delivery. In addition to Chu Qi's lack of commitment to send troops, an agreement has been reached on the delivery of grain. First of all, the city between Qi and Zhao was sold, Fuyang sold it to Qi for one million stone millet, and Rao An, Rao An was taken from Qi when Pang Nuan was the general of Zhao eight years ago, and it could only be returned. In addition to the 1 million stone millet, the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi and Wei sold 20 million stone millet to Zhao at a low price of 20 yuan per stone.

The news reached Handan before Ge De, and the whole Zhao State was immediately boiling. The 20 million stone millet is not only a huge quantity, but it was sold at a low price of 20 yuan during the war, which has already expressed the determination of the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi and Wei to save Zhao, and the countries are about to merge.

The Zhao State fought hard for more than a year, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians were killed and wounded. The messengers who went south for help kept coming, and after a year, there was finally a response. With such excitement and excitement, Zhao Guojun stood on the outskirts of the dock to greet Lian Po.

"Father, the child has seen the king's banner." In the Zhan Zhou Jue Room, Lian Yu whispered in Lian Po's ear. Lian Po, who is timid and has no energy and loves to doze off, has been sitting since the boat team turned into the water, quietly looking at the corner that no one can see. Twelve years later, he returned.

"The minister has seen the king, the queen mother, and the prime minister." At the Fushui Wharf, Lian Po, who had white hair, was dressed in leather armor and saluted Zhao Qian and the others energetically.

"Knowing that Lian Qing returned to Zhao, the widow looked forward to each other day and night, looking forward to each other......" Zhao Qian was full of smiles, but he forgot the content behind his welcome speech as soon as he started. He had no choice but to look at Guo Kai, Guo Kai knew that Zhao Qian had forgotten the word to look at him, but he didn't dare to prompt.

Of course, the queen mother's gown is long-sleeved and good at dancing, and she also has the demeanor of a mother in the world in a few years. She stepped forward with wine and said: "The old woman has heard of Lian Qing's prestige since she was a child, and today she returned to Zhao, Zhao people are happy and Qin people are afraid, please Lian Qing drink this lord." ”

The clothes are white, and the makeup is dignified like a fairy. Lian Po didn't dare to take a closer look, nor did he refuse the wine she offered, and respectfully took it and drank it with his head up. The ministers all knew that the low-priced corn of the Chu, Qi and Wei Kingdoms was brought back by Lian Po, and they all flattered themselves when they saw this: "Xinpingjun is not old...... Xinpingjun fights, the Qin people will be defeat......ed, my Zhao country has Xinpingjun, why worry about the Qin people not retreating......"

Twelve years ago, Lian Po ate a bucket of rice and ten catties of meat in front of the messenger to show that he was not old and could fight, and twelve years later, he was really old. Hearing the praise of these ministers, he felt very uncomfortable, and after drinking it, he unconsciously glared at Guo Kai. Back then, it was Guo Kai who sent people into his slander, telling King Zhao not to summon him back to Zhao.

"Guo Qing thinks it's quite old?" Lian is quite straightforward, and he opened his mouth after staring.

Guo Kai knew that Lian Po resented himself, but he didn't expect him to ask himself in front of the king, the queen mother and the ministers, he blushed and laughed: "How can Xinping Jun be old?" Even if Xin Pingjun is old, he is also my great Zhao Liangjun. ”

"Humph!" Everyone has so many sycophants who are not as comfortable as Guo Kai's sentence, Lian quite smug smiled, but after laughing, he scolded: "Villain! ”

The audience was amazed. Guo Kai is the Taifu, and he scolded the Taifu villain in front of the king and the queen mother, and only Lian Po has the guts. In embarrassment, Xiangbang Zhao Liang snorted, and said: "Xinping Jun is the Great Wall of my Zhao Kingdom, and those who slandered Xinping Jun in the past will be beheaded." Come! Bring up the head of the messenger......

Lian Po returned to Zhao, and Zhao Liang was prepared. first completely rebuilt Lian Po's mansion once, and then killed the messenger who deliberately slandered Lian Po back then, in order to dissipate his resentment back then. Lian Po went crazy as soon as he got off the boat, and he happened to present the head of the messenger.

"No need." Lian Po waved his hand. "The minister returned to Zhao, not for revenge, but for Da Zhao. Please the king, Xiangbang quickly bow to the general to give the ministers axes and soldiers. ”

"Widowed ......" Zhao Qian couldn't handle government affairs at all, so he had to look at his mother and Guo Kai after being widowed. Lingyu looked at Xiangbang Zhao Liang and said: "What Lian Qing said is very true, the king has ordered Xiangbang to build a platform, and he can pay homage to him on a certain day." ”

"Yes, yes." Zhao Liang also said. "The high platform has been built, just waiting for the auspicious period ......"

"The Qin army is attacking the city very urgently, and the ministers are not waiting for the auspicious period, please pay tribute to the general today and give the axe and the talisman." On the way to come, Lian Po had already learned a lot about the battle situation from Ge De's mouth. After Hu Yu's death, Sima Shang stationed on the Southern Great Wall on his behalf, and the Qin army frantically attacked the city, day and night. At this moment, he wanted to go to the Southern Great Wall to take over the military power, but he didn't have a talisman or axe in his hand.

Today's arrival today is going to be a military power, and even the spirit robe frowned slightly, and the ministers were even more surprised. Only Zhao Liang smiled and said loudly: "Xin Pingjun is worried about state affairs so far, Liang is ashamed. According to what the king said, he will worship the general today. ”

"King Xie. Xie Xiangbang. Lian Po finally had a smile on his face, and he was also very satisfied with Zhao Liang. Zhao Liang is the crown prince who was first set up by King Xiang, and he has the decisiveness and courage that the previous generation of Zhao people are used to.

Enter the city, worship the sky, tell the ancestors, worship the generals, and give the axe and the talisman. From now on, Lian Po took over the command of the 200,000 Zhao troops on the southern front, but the black clothes of Wangcheng and the 30,000 kings of Zhao Cong were not under his control.

Hurriedly entered Handan, and hurried out of the south of the city, Zhao Liang saw this and wanted to howl very much, to show the excitement in his chest, but when he returned to the house to listen to Ge De's report, he couldn't roar again.

"It is necessary to support it for a year, and the Qin army will be withdrawn next year?" The most desired thing is to send troops to rescue, but neither Chu and Qi can determine the date of sending troops, especially the Qi State, and the Yi doctors who oppose sending troops account for the majority.

"Yes, yes." Ge Dedao: "The king of Chu still complains about ...... back then"

Of course, Zhao Liang knew what he was referring to back then. Back then, he didn't believe that the Chu people decided not to send troops, and the king of Chu would naturally remember it. But so what? If the Zhao State died, the Three Kingdoms of Chu, Qi and Wei alone would not be able to stop the Qin State at all.

"You don't have to talk about that year." Zhao Liang interrupted: "Is the King of Chu willing to send troops?" ”

"The king of Chu said that the major affairs of the state of Chu are not scheduled for the king of Chu but for the main dynasty. Yingdu Zhengchao thought that the Chu State had too little Su, and if the Qin State saved Zhao and Qin Guo and attacked Chu again, no one would save them, so they would never save Zhao without four years of Su. Ge De said.

"Four years of accumulation? When? Zhao Liang asked urgently. Three years accumulate one year's corn, and four years must not be sent out after 12 years?!

"Your Excellency, the King of Chu said, it will take seven years." Ge Dedao. "However, the king of Chu and Xiang Yan, the general of Chu, thought that they could not wait for seven years, so they would try to persuade their ministers."

"Hey!" Seven years, seven years, Zhao Guodu has died. Zhao Liang anxiously no longer sat down, but sat up.

"The king of Chu also said that Zhao State should not bribe Qin." Ge De's words have to be explained, whether Zhao Liang wants to listen to him or not. "If Zhao cuts land and bribes Qin, it will be the enemy of the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi and Wei."

"What else does the King of Chu say, let's talk about it together." Zhao Liang was anxious and could only hold his mind, and Chu was the only hope.

"The king of Chu said that the Qin army will be defeated every three years, and after that, the soldiers will be tired and have no desire to fight, so the Qin State will withdraw next year; Chu State's armor and weapons will be lost to Zhao, but only to the two generals of Xinpingjun and Wu'anhou, and the rest will not be allowed; If the corn is not bought by Zhao Guo's money, it will also lose to the two generals, and the rest will not be accepted. If the two generals are dismissed, the armor, weapons, and corn will be broken. ”

"What does that mean?" Although it was support, Zhao Liang heard something else.

"I don't know." Ge Dedao. "The king of Chu said that Yu Zhao only believed in these two generals, and the rest did not believe it. The most feared that the armor and weapons would fall into the hands of the Qin army, which was the most unfavorable to the Chu State. ”

The soldier armor corn was only given to Lian Po and Li Mu, and the two of them had soldiers, armor and food, and Zhao Liang's heart kept sinking. If it weren't for the fact that the State of Chu captured Linzi and did not destroy the State of Qi, he would almost have thought that the State of Chu had other plans. With peace of mind, Zhao Liang remembered another question: "What is corn that is not bought by Zhao Guo?" ”

"20 million stone millet, even if it is as low as 20 yuan, it is more than 40,000 gold." Ge Dedao. "Is there any money in the court?" Zhao Liang was about to say Yanmen County or sometimes, but he preemptively said: "The sea boat of Chu has been connected to India and Persia, the world is in the east of Zhongzhou, India is in the south of Zhongzhou, and Persia is in the west of Zhongzhou. Hu merchants sell very little, and a horse of silk can have fifty times or a hundred times the profit. However, the sea boat of Chu is also connected, and the cost of thousands of miles on the sea is only a hundred miles on the road......"

"Are you saying that in a few years, my Zhao State Hu Shang will be cut off?" Zhao Liang was impatient again. Hu Shang is a major item of Zhao Guo's annual income, if Hu Shang does not sell silk, then Zhao Guo's annual income will not be greatly reduced?

"Yes, yes." Gede also had a sad look on his face. He originally thought that the sea boat trade had nothing to do with Zhao Guo, but as soon as Xiong Jing said that everyone's silk was sold in one place, he was stunned on the spot. "The king of Chu also said that the state of Chu must sell silk cheaply, so that the state of Qin cannot exchange silk for horses with the Rong people and the Di people."

"Then how about my Zhao Guo! If the annual income is greatly reduced, the Zhao State will not die. "Zhao Liang can't care about Qin Guo anymore, he thinks about Zhao Guo. Didn't Chu State do this, didn't it cut off Zhao Guo's way of life.
