"Once we announce our support for King Yingji of Qin to succeed to the throne, how will Meng Ben explain to Gongzi Zhuang and the others? Second, King Han must have been deeply angry at my Zhao Guo's move, thinking that Zhao Guo betrayed Korea and negotiated peace with Qin State alone, which was a treacherous villain's act. ”

Longtai, school field.

Le Yi and Zhao Yong deduced the situation in front of them as they walked. There was only Zhao Yi behind the two of them, but he was very smart to stay far behind him, which could not only protect the two of them, but also not overhear the conversation between the two.

Zhao Yong nodded, "As Qing said, we still have to appease Meng Ben on his side." The longer Qin's civil strife continues, the better it will be for us. As long as Yingji and others don't grab the handle, they can't agree. Even, you can send some elite people to assist from the side. ”

"Sending troops? Wouldn't it be too risky? Le Yi frowned and asked, "If you let the other party grab the handle, I'm afraid it won't end well." ”

"Since it's an elite person, the less the better. Recently, Lone intends to create a special unit, which is organized within the black-clothed guards, but is directly under the widow. Promote the elite soldiers in the Baijin and Roll Armor battalions, and regroup and train. ”

"What does the king mean?" Le Yi looked at Zhao Yong suspiciously.

"Don't be careful, I don't doubt the army's loyalty to Lone." Zhao Yong naturally knew what Le Yi was thinking, "It's just that Juanjia and Baijin are regular troops, and only large-scale dispatches can achieve something." However, this unit, which is only to be formed, is to carry out some unsightly things. ”

Le Yi nodded and groaned slightly, "Your Majesty has a question." ”

"The widow knows what you want to ask." Zhao Yong said, "Yes, the death of Yan Wang Ji Hao is indeed fueled by these people, otherwise, with Kuang Zhang's caution, it is absolutely impossible to disclose the news to Ji Xu." ”

Le Yi nodded, he had always been very suspicious before, how could Ji Hao be able to get the matter of Yan Guobaoding being smuggled out so finely. I thought it was a mistake to be a hundred secrets, but now that I think about it, at that time, Zhao Yong had already done some work.

"It's just that the widow didn't expect that Ji Xu's cowardly life would be bloody. In the land of Yan Zhao, there are many generous and sad people, and what they say is true. ”

Le Yi nodded, and secretly glanced at Zhao Yi behind him, this person is the commander of the black-clothed guards, it is impossible not to even know about this matter, but it was not until today that he got a little news from Zhao Yong's mouth, which shows that this person has done a good job of secrecy.

Zhao Yi also seemed to notice that someone was looking at him, and when he felt it, he found that it was Le Yi, nodded politely at him, and continued to act as if nothing had happened.

"Let's get back to business. In the near future, there will be some special people who will go to Liyang with a certain military order to assist the Central Military Department and help Gongzizhuang deal with some unsightly deeds. At the same time, you should send someone who is able to appease Gongzi Zhuang first and ensure that he continues to cooperate with the widow, especially after the widow declares his support for Yingji. ”

"Yes, I'll handle this later."

"This person should have some coordination skills and outstanding awareness of the overall situation. After he arrives in Liyang, the widow will hand over the Central Military Office, Meng Ben and the Black-Coated Legion to him for command and coordination. At the same time, seize the time to establish an intelligence agency in Liyang. This is a great opportunity. ”

Le Yi digested Zhao Yong's words, and said with a slight smile: "It just so happens that a certain person has just found such a talent recently, and let him meet the king another day." I believe that this person will definitely live up to the king's trust. ”

"The widow believes." Zhao Yong said. "In addition, in South Korea, although there is a plan to cut down the enemy, but the person who executes, do you have any ideas?"

The two walked to the weapon rack next to the school field at this moment, and Zhao Yong pulled out a bronze sword from it. It is engraved with the mark of the Arrow Ridge Battalion, which shows that this weapon is from the weapon workshop of the Arrow Ridge, and the quality is definitely the best.

"Before, everyone in the White Tiger Hall deduced for a long time." Le Yi said slowly: "The meaning of the king is to hope that when Zhao Zhen and the others withdraw from Xinzheng, they will go to the wild king and cooperate with Zhao Hao to seize the city." With the fortifications of the Yewang and the number and talent of Zhao Hao and others, I am afraid that without reinforcements, they can hold out for about twenty days. ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yong nodded, to be honest, he was a little surprised, he thought that he could hold on to about forty days. But there is no doubt about the ability of Le Yi and others. In other words, you overestimate your own strength.

"Once the wild king is captured by our Zhao State, Zhao Hao and the others stationed in the wild king will inevitably be flanked by the enemy forces from both Shangdang and Xinzheng. Zhao Zhen and others are mostly cavalry, defending the city is not good, although Zhao Hao has foot soldiers, but the number is limited, and it is difficult to defend the city. ”

"Yes, our army must get through the Shangdang as quickly as possible and rush to the aid of the Yewang, otherwise, not only will the Yewang not be able to hold it, but the city of Zhao in the Shangdang will also fall into the hands of the Koreans. Handan will be under the South Korean front. ”

"But Shangdang is mountainous, and it is not easy for the cavalry to attack, and if the cities are attacked one by one, I am afraid that it will delay time."

If Zhao Yong could be familiar with history before he was reborn, I am afraid that he would have a more intuitive feeling of Le Yi's previous words.

It is said that in another historical time and space, it was precisely because Shangdang Taishou Feng Ting was unwilling to hand over the land of Shangdang in Korea to Qin and surrendered to Zhao that the king of Qin was furious and ordered Wang Di to go out of the pass and surround Yewang, thus separating the land of Shangdang from Korea and becoming the cause of the battle of Qin and Zhao Changping.

"So?" Zhao Yong asked.

"So it is simply impossible to occupy the party in a short period of time. Even if a million troops are mobilized, it will be difficult to occupy, let alone within twenty days. ”

In the White Tiger Palace, on the question of how to occupy Shangdang in twenty days, almost everyone agreed: impossible.

As the convener of this meeting, Le Yi was indeed a little embarrassed. This kind of staff planning is usually presided over by him, and even in the most difficult situation before, he has never thought of such a unanimous thing, let alone unanimous opposition.

To be honest, even Le Yi himself has no confidence. Shangdang covers almost one-third of South Korea's territory, and if Zhao really starts such a war, it can be said that it will be a war of annihilation for South Korea.

"In a sense, if Qin really sends Wu Sui to Zhao State, it will become a thorn in the throat of South Korea. This thorn can help us hold South Korea hostage without betrayal. This is the reason why Le Yi agreed with Zhao Yong's decision.

"But in the same way, it will also make South Korea like a thorn in the back, which is unacceptable to South Korea." The lieutenant reminded from the sidelines.

"However, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Le Yi continued, "Controlling Wusui and Yewang is equivalent to controlling the three channels of Yiguan, Taihang, and Mengmen, which is equivalent to holding the passage of Korea to the north, and it is also equivalent to threatening the gate of Wei to the east of the river. and included Shangdang in the territory of Zhao. In the near future, it can go south to threaten Korea and Wei, and in the distance, it can resist the Qin State to use Sanchuan as a springboard to attack our Zhao State, and it can be attacked and retreated, which is really the throat of the soldiers. ”

"Everyone knows how important this place is, but the key is that it's easy to defend and difficult to attack. This is different from attacking Zhongshan. Zhongshan is fertile for thousands of miles, and the cavalry is running, and it is possible to reach it every day. And the Taihang Mountain Road is rugged and southbound, and the chariots cannot be parallel, let alone the cavalry. In the past, a one-day trip often took twice as long to arrive. ”

"In addition, South Korea has been operating here for a long time, and if it is located and our army, it is possible for several years. Not to mention, it takes twenty days. ”

A few people in the hall blurted out their opinions one after another. This is also Zhao Yong's habit after he became in power, that is, to brainstorm and hope that everyone can express their opinions. After a while, the whole hall became noisy, like a vegetable market.

Li Zhuo, Qiu Ye and Zhao Hao looked at each other, and they all thought in their hearts: It turns out that everyone in the White Tiger Hall is in this kind of working environment.

Zhao Hao nominally returned to Handan to report on his work this time, but everyone knew that this was Zhao Yong's order for him to come back to staff whether this campaign was feasible. If you don't greet him in advance, I'm afraid the fight will be messy. And Li Zhuo, the Hedong campaign plan was temporarily canceled, and he could not return to Daidi, so he could only stay in Handan. And Qiu Liquid is just at the right time.

"From a certain point of view, although this battle is very dangerous, it is not completely impossible." Zhao Hao saw that several adults were arguing fiercely, and he didn't discuss it with the three young men at all, so the three of them watched the battle happily and muttered quietly.

"It seems that you have some experience, why don't you say it and let's consider it?" Qiu Liquid naturally likes to watch jokes, so he naturally enjoys watching the fun on the sidelines.

"Yes, you have been in the cavalry for many years, and your cavalry tactics are much stronger than ours, so you might as well say it as a counselor. Anyway, these guys don't bother with us. ”

Zhao Hao glanced at the quarrelsome people again, and saw that no one really cared about these three boys, so he quietly walked to the side and picked up three wooden cups.

"Look, this is the Wild King." Zhao Hao said, putting a wooden cup on the table, "This is Handan," as he spoke, he put another wooden cup on the northeast of the "Yewang", "This is Shangdang," he put the third cup on top of the "Yewang".

The other two didn't know what medicine he was selling, so they could only stare at him.

"The king's original intention was not actually to include the upper party, but to occupy the wild king. And to occupy the wild king, it is not necessary to occupy the party. Zhao Hao said.

"Wait, I'm stupid and didn't figure it out." Qiu Ye took Zhao Hao's hand and said, "If you don't occupy the party, how can you fight the wild king." ”

"Occupy the wild king, why do you have to fight the party?" Zhao Hao looked at Qiu Liquid like a fool.

Li Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and said in a bit of a daze: "You mean, send troops directly from Handan, use the Wei State, and occupy the Yewang?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Hao said happily, "Look at the sand table, although Shangdang is rugged and difficult, Shangdang is a plain, which is the most suitable for cavalry to run." Moreover, as long as the cavalry brought enough food, they could reach Shangdang in five days, and they did not need logistics troops such as grain, grass, and baggage. Although our army is not good at defending the city, it can fight in the field. If the opponent's upright troops come to attack, our army will use cavalry to go out of the city and fight in the field, disrupting its plan. ”

"If the other party bypasses my wild king and enters the party, the road will be rugged, and the march will inevitably be slow. Second, our army can cut off its grain routes, but it will not be able to go far. ”

"What if the enemy army uses a part of the main force to contain the wild king, and the other part of the main force sends troops to the party?"

"First, the battle of the party is bound to be a protracted war, no matter who comes, it may not be able to fight quickly for a few months or a year, which is a reality we must stand on."

"Second, although the road to Shangdang is rugged, because it relies entirely on the turnover of the wild king, its own military food reserves are not much. As long as the wild king is in the hands of my Zhao Jun, sooner or later the land of Shangdang will fall into a situation of running out of food, and it will not be difficult to take down Shangdang in one go. ”

"Third, the south of the party is high and the north is low, the east is high and the west is low, the key lies in the eldest son, the first line of Changping, as long as the army is advanced to Changping, you can rely on the mountain to build defense and South Korea. If the wild king cuts off his back road, the Korean army will not be able to last long. ”

"Therefore, as long as you occupy Yewang, half of this battle will be won, and even if you can't win the party in the end, it will become a thorn in the heart of South Korea. With the geographical location of Wusui and Yewang, it is almost difficult for South Korea to go north in the future. ”

Before the three of them could come to their senses, they heard one of them behind them shouting: "Very good! ”11
