In his opinion, since the Three Kingdoms have agreed to go to Zhao for funeral, in the eyes of Zhao State, the Three Kingdoms have already let Zhao Guo go, and there should be no intention to guard against the Three Kingdoms. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This was indeed the case at the beginning, and when Zhou Shao returned to Zhao with the diplomatic results of the three countries agreeing to go to Zhao to mourn, the tense atmosphere in Zhao was relaxed. At the same time, the ministers of Zhao State also praised Zhao Yong for really being able to break the Seven Kingdoms and defeat the Zhao Alliance.

After all, Zhao Yong was a young man under the age of fifteen, and he was praised by everyone, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud. However, he still never forgot who planned all this for him, and when he received an urgent report from Dai Yan again, he also wondered there if the master was thinking too much.

However, since he learned knowledge from Dai Yan, and was shocked by the big deal that broke the Seven Nations Alliance in an instant, he still has great respect for Dai Yan. Although he was a little unimpressed that the Three Kingdoms would still be immortal, he still strictly ordered Zhao's spies in the Three Kingdoms to maintain the highest vigilance and pay close attention to the movements of the Three Kingdoms!

What happened next was exactly as Dai Yan expected! In January of the following year, it was the time for all countries to gather in Zhao to attend the funeral of Zhao Suhou, and the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei, and Qi not only sent messengers to mourn, but also had a huge army behind the envoys!

Through the investigation of the spies, Zhao Guo roughly knew that the army behind the envoys of the Three Kingdoms was almost 10,000.

The envoys of the Qin State will set out from Guanzhong, pass through Lishi, which has already belonged to the Qin State, and directly attack the largest important town of the Zhao State in the west, Jinyang!

The envoys of Wei and Qi will meet in Guanze, and then go straight north along the river. If the armies of the two countries can break through the Great River and Zhangshui one after another, then it will be no problem to threaten Handan, the capital of Zhao State!

Whether it is Jinyang or Handan, this is a place that Zhao must not lose, Handan is the current capital of Zhao, and Jinyang was once the capital of Zhao! The monarchs and ministers of Zhao did not have the slightest contempt for the small number of troops sent by the Three Kingdoms, who is sure that the Three Kingdoms sent 10,000 troops, will they send more troops one after another to respond?

As for the way to deal with the Three Kingdoms, the monarchs and ministers of Zhao also had serious differences. In the opinion of the ministers of the Zhao State, now that the Zhao State is facing this crisis, it should focus on defending the capital Handan, so as not to fall into a two-sided battle and be broken by each of the three kingdoms.

Most of the ministers of Zhao State have such an argument, this is because Handan is too close to Wei and Qi! It is only less than 200 miles away from the border between the two countries, and if it is a normal march, it will only take a few days for the army to come to the city!

And the vicinity of Handan is the base camp of the farming faction of Zhao State, and the richest place in Zhao State is here. Most of the most influential people in the Zhao court also came from here, and in order to protect their interests, they naturally asked to defend the capital. In the world at this time, it is only natural to defend the capital of a country!

Such an argument was immediately strongly opposed by the "nomadic" forces headed by the above general Hiyoshi! In the eyes of these people, Jinyang was built by Dong Anyu, the most important retainer of the Zhao family before the founding of the country, the city is strong and the walls are deep, and the people of Jinyang are loyal to the Zhao family! If Jinyang is abandoned like this, even if the Zhao State temporarily gets rid of the crisis, it will lose the vast land of Jinyang and even the Daijun in the north, and the Zhao family will be reduced to a small country from now on!

Zhao Cheng, who is now Zhao Guoding's sea god needle, did not speak on this issue, which made Zhao Guo's farming faction and nomadic faction in Handan unable to stand, and Zhao Yong was also troubled by the fact that such a problem could not be solved!

When such a stalemate intensified, and the fierce quarrel between the two sides in the court turned the court of Zhao upside down, a heroic woman in military uniform came out of the harem of Zhao State, and scolded the people of both factions at once: "You are all important ministers of the country left by your father, and now that Zhao's foreign troubles have not been eliminated, you have quarreled like this, how can you have any plans for the sake of the country?" If you wait for you to come up with a result, I'm afraid that my Zhao Kingdom will all perish at the hands of the enemy! ”

This heroic woman is naturally Zhao Xue!

Seeing Zhao Xue, the princess, behaving like this, these important ministers of Zhao State were a little unconvinced, and they refuted one after another. Some people accuse the princess of being a woman and not being allowed to discuss the government; Some people bitterly said that the princess did not understand anything, and did not know the difficulties of their ministers; Some people sneered, saying that as a princess, she didn't have the size of Zhao Guo but rushed to Zhao Guo's court, which is a great faux pas!

Such words made the arrogance in the princess's heart completely explode! Then she spoke: "Didn't you say that I, the Zhao State, should focus on defending Handan?" Well, how about I go alone to guard against Jinyang in the west? ”

Such a declaration shocked the entire Zhao court, and Jinyang in the west was facing the invasion of the Qin army! Although the Qin army was defeated by the Qi army for the first time in Sanqiu before, well-informed people also knew that the victory of the Qi army was actually a disastrous victory!

The Qin army's combat power is so strong that the world has attracted attention, and without an absolute superiority of troops in hand, who dares to brush its tiger whiskers?

Even Fei Yi, the leader of the nomadic faction, asked with a worried face, "Does the princess really want to go to the west alone to guard against Jinyang?" ”

Zhao Xue replied confidently: "Of course, the army of Zhao State will focus on defending the capital Handan." I'll go to the west to guard against Jinyang, if Jinyang City is broken, I will definitely not live alone! ”

At this moment, the ministers of Zhao Guo were all stunned by Zhao Xue's performance, what ability does this princess dare to say this?

Zhao Yong also chose to believe in his sister at this time, in fact, he also knew that there was such a big dispute between the nomadic faction and the farming faction, how could the top of the Zhao family not be the same? Jinyang is actually very clear about the status of Zhao State, and now when Zhao Yongchu ascends the throne, as the monarch, he must personally defend the capital Handan, and Jinyang, an important town in the western part of Zhao State, must also be handed over to a Zhao clan to defend is the best!

Originally, Zhao Cheng was the best candidate among them, but Zhao Cheng's attitude in Zhao State was biased towards the farming faction, and he did not necessarily agree with the defense of Jinyang. If other clans are dispatched, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not raise a counter-flag against Handan! You must know that there is Taihang Mountain between Jinyang and Handan, but it is best to divide the place where the country is established! And this kind of thing, when the monarchs of Zhao State ascended the throne, it was not uncommon!

If such a thing really happened, wouldn't Zhao Guo face another civil strife in the near future?

If it was his sister Zhao Xue, then such a problem could be completely avoided. Not to mention that Zhao Xue is the person Zhao Yong believes in the most, even if Zhao Xue really wants to win over Jinyang and other places to stand on their own, the generals and nobles of Jinyang and Daidi will not accept a woman as their lord!

So Zhao State's response to the offensive of the Three Kingdoms was so determined. The focus of Zhao's defense was near Handan, the capital of Zhao, where most of Zhao's forces were gathered to deal with the temptations and attacks of Wei and Qi.

And when Zhao Xue went to Jinyang to defend in person, she begged her younger brother Zhao Yong to issue such a strange order in the country: Zhao Guofan who can ride a horse and shoot alone is willing to go to Jinyang to defend his family and defend the country, and he will be rewarded with 5 gold! If there is a victory on the battlefield, a reward will be given according to the custom of the army!

5 gold is already a very high reward for the commoners of this era! You must know that the Qi National Skill Fighter kills one enemy, but he only gets eight taels of money; Now you just need people who can ride a horse alone to go to Jinyang to join the army, and you can get money and hardware!

Such a temptation, no one in Zhao State was not moved, so after the issuance of this order, those ordinary people with excellent riding skills were extremely excited, and those who were in Handan consciously went to join the army, and those in other places also began to go to Jinyang!

Except for Zhao Yong who knew what his sister planned to do, no one in the entire Zhao Kingdom knew her true purpose. However, despite this, Fei Yi, the leader of the nomadic faction, was still very grateful to Zhao Xue for being willing to take the initiative to go to Jinyang!

Relying on his lofty position among the Di people, he mobilized his own strength to help Zhao Xue recruit knights, when he was in Handan, Zhao Xue had more than a thousand knights in his hands, and when she arrived in Jinyang, she already had a cavalry of nearly 3,000 people in her hands!
