Chapter 610: Priorities
On the Suixian Lake Pavilion in the palace, a group of people gathered around the bonfire......
If there are courtiers here, you should be surprised by the courtiers here! These are the most important people in the Zhao Dynasty, and now they are gathered here, I am afraid that they will not be here to laugh and play......
After listening to Huo Chengjun's words, Zhang Xiao was going to Lian Po's mansion! But as soon as I thought about it, I went to Lian Po's mansion, and I was afraid that I would have to go to Xiangguo Yuxin's mansion, so I simply announced it into the palace one by one, just to have a "one-pot stew"!
Zhang Xiao, who was next to the bonfire, stirred the leg of mutton on the fire rack with one hand and said: "Everyone, if you want the leg of mutton to be roasted well, the heat must not be too big, so that the baked things are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma is overflowing!" ”
For King Zhao's experience of roasting lamb legs, none of you present have the leisure to learn now! One by one, they were sitting upright, and they were all thinking about how to deal with the upcoming predicament of Shangdang County!
Around the bonfire, in addition to Lian Po and Yu Xin, the famous Li Mu and Lu Buwei were also called here by King Zhao!
Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhang Xiao handed the leg of mutton to Lu Buwei, and looked at the stunned few people: "I invite you to come this time, I think you also know the purpose!" This afternoon, the two sons of Pingyuanjun and Pingyangjun have already talked to the widow about the pros and cons of winning Shangdang County, and the widow wants to hear what you mean! ”
As soon as King Zhao's words fell, everyone present looked at the veteran Lian Polai! Among them, the veteran Lian Po can be said to be battle-hardened, and his opinion is undoubtedly the most "authoritative"!
Seeing that everyone in the audience was looking at him, the veteran Lian Po got up and said: "If you go back to the king, the minister feels that sending troops to take the land of Shangdang County will have more advantages than disadvantages, and my Zhao division is difficult to defeat Qin Shi, so it is better for the minister not to meddle in the affairs of the party county!" ”
Lian Po's words surprised Zhang Xiao! Could it be that the land of Shangdang County is really impossible to take? Originally, Zhang Xiao, who was still eager to try, had a sense of sobering up at this time......
After Lian Po finished speaking, he returned to his seat! Because after Lian Po did not agree to send troops to the party, those who intentionally said that they would send troops immediately remained silent and did not dare to speak out......
After Zhang Xiao saw this, he said with laughter: "You can all say that you are here today to discuss the matter of Shangdang County, whether it is right or wrong, it can only be said that it is good!" ”
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoyou picked up the leg of lamb and began to roast it......
And among these people, except for Lian Po, the most vocal is Xiang Guoyu Xin! Xiangguo thought for a while, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty, Yu Xin thinks that the land of Shangdang County can still be accepted, and the land of Shangdang is the place where my Zhao Kingdom must pass through when it goes south......
The land of Shangdang County is very close to Handan of Zhao State, and before, Zhao State has always stationed a division in the border land, which is to guard the safety of the capital Handan!
Therefore, thinking about the future strategy, Yu Xin felt that he could take the Shangdang County!
"Then I don't know what Xiangguo thinks, after taking Shangdang County, how will my Zhao State deal with the Qin Division's soldiers?" Lian Po is not constantly asking!
As soon as he heard Lian Po ask like this, Yu Xin was immediately speechless! What Lian Po said is also true, compared with the Qin army, Zhao Guo's soldiers are really slightly inferior, not to mention Zhao Guo, in the entire Shandong Six Kingdoms, it is difficult for any country's soldiers to be the opponent of Qin's division!
Seeing that they will meet each other, they want to quarrel! Zhang Xiao immediately stopped: "What Yu Xiang and General Lian said is reasonable, but the widow is thinking about such a question now?" ”
"What troubles the king?" Several people in the audience were all looking at Zhao Wanglai!
"The widow is thinking, if this time, my Zhao State is at the mercy of the Qin State! After the Qin division took the Shangdang County, what do you think the Qin State will do next? ”
King Zhao's words were like a heavy blow, resounding in the minds of these people! Yes, if the Qin State takes Shangdang County, will he Zhao State still be spared the war?
Qin and Zhao, since the period of King Huiwen, were both dominating the countries! But there is no heaven and no earth, who would be willing to share in the supremacy?
What's more, since Zhao Guo took the Shanggu County and Jicheng of Yan State, his strength has increased greatly! has completely become a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of the Qin State!
Will the Qin State sit back and watch the development of the Zhao State continue? The answer is yes, the war between Qin and Zhao will definitely inevitably have a battle!
"According to the king's wishes, is it to take back Shangdang County?" The veteran Lian Po looked at Zhao Wanglai with burning eyes!
"The widow has no such intention, and the widow is still thinking about whether to take the Shangdang County? After all, the words of the old general Lian are also deeply understood! Regarding Lian Po's question, Zhang Xiao said with a little hesitation!
The bonfire was still burning, and the few people present, except for Lian Po and Yu Xin, were talking endlessly! Lu Buwei and Li Mu were silent, and after Zhang Xiao saw this, he asked endlessly: "Li Mu, what do you think of the situation in front of you?" ”
Li Mu, who didn't plan to participate in the discussion, had no choice but to bite the bullet and say after listening to King Zhao's words: "Your Majesty, Shangdang County is extremely important to Qin and Zhao, and after Qin takes it, it will be extremely convenient for you to go east to Guguan and fight with my Zhao State and Korea!" Therefore, Shangdang County must not be taken by the Qin State! ”
"What General Lian Po said, what do you think of the problem that Zhao Guojia is weaker than Qin Shi?" For a generation of famous generals Li Mu, Zhang Xiao immediately continued to inquire!
"Your Majesty, the morale of the soldiers varies from event to event! The soldiers of the Qin State are indeed powerful, but there are many reasons that affect the battle situation! Before, Ma Fujun was in Yan and broke the Qin Division, who would have expected that Ma Fujun would win? ”
Li Mu didn't say it, but when he said it, he talked very carefully! Even, he dared to speak out to refute Lian Po's words!
Of course, this has a great relationship with Li Mu's character! When Li Mu acts, he often only seeks to be worthy of his heart! Therefore, Li Mu in history has a lot of credit, but he can't do anything, and finally died unjustly under the butcher's knife of King Zhao......
It is said that when Li Mu was in Zhao Mourning for the king, he was deeply valued by Zhao Mourning for advocating the king because he repeatedly broke the Qin division! But he intervened in the affairs of Queen Zhao's harem, and bluntly admonished: The queen was born in a filthy place, and disturbing the bloodline of the clan could lead to the overthrow of Sheji to persuade King Zhao Mourning Xiang not to accept her as a concubine!
Although the matter was finally settled, the queen kept it in mind, and finally after the queen's son ascended the throne, the queen and the traitorous ministers spread rumors everywhere, so that a generation of famous generals Li Mu finally died in the hands of his own people......
