Chapter 214: What Is the Han Kingdom Doing (2)
When Qu Yuze was eating, he secretly glanced at Zhao Wuming. Seeing that Zhao Wuming looked like he didn't care about himself, www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion already understood his attitude in his heart. So I don't have to worry about eating, and I feel more and more at ease.
Seeing Qu Yuze's appearance, Zhao Yu was not good at asking more, and Lin Wu was inconvenient to say more. The scene was quiet for a while, and the four of them tasted their own wine and food.
After a short time, Qu Yuze didn't explain too much, and stood up directly and saluted Zhao Yu: "Now that the foreign envoy has been full of wine and food, I want to go back to the embassy first and ask Zhao Wang En's permission."
"The noble envoy wants to leave, and the widow is not good at staying, and the Han envoy Haihan is invited if the hospitality is not good." Zhao Yu didn't stay after thinking for a while, and then said a few polite words.
Lin Wu heard that Qu Yuze was leaving, and quickly stood up: "Since Brother Qu is leaving, this son happens to return to the embassy together, and I also ask King Zhao for permission."
"Huang Hao sent the envoys of the Han State and Lin Hu Gongzi to the embassy to rest on behalf of the widow." Zhao Yu nodded slightly and commanded loudly outside the hall.
Huang Hao walked in and saluted Zhao Yu. Then he took Qu Yuze and Lin Wu and walked out of the main hall.
Zhao Yu watched the two walk away, turned his eyes to Zhao Wuming and asked him, "Fourth brother, what do you think of the Han Kingdom?"
Judging from the letter of state from Lin Hu, Lou Fu and King Lou Fu, this matter is not false. Han should be a country that exists in the north." Zhao Wuming heard the inquiry, and replied to Zhao Yu from the wine bottle in his hand.
Zhao Yuyi saw Zhao Wuming answer like this, and he didn't know if he didn't ask the rest of the questions, so he immediately asked in detail again: "The Han Kingdom should exist, and few people are convinced of this. It's just their strength, how is it? “。
"If the strength is not strong, will the envoys of Lou Fu and Lin Hu change color when they see the envoys of the Han Kingdom?" Zhao Wuming blocked Zhao Yu and asked rhetorically, and added another sentence at the end: "Compared with the overall strength of Zhao Guo, it may be a little worse, but the difference between it should not be too much."
"Fourth brother, why are you looking left to talk about him?". Zhao Yu always felt that Zhao Wuming was a little different when he talked about the Han Kingdom, as if he was deliberately pretending to be indifferent.
Zhao Wuming was stunned for a moment and didn't understand why Zhao Yu would ask like this, so he subconsciously replied: "Isn't what the eldest brother is asking about the strength of the Han Kingdom?" Could it be that the younger brother answered incorrectly? “。
"The widow is curious about the strength of the Han Kingdom, but after all, the Han Kingdom is far away from our country, so why bother to find out so clearly. What the widow wants to ask is that once the Han Kingdom goes south, Lou Fu will fall into the flames of war, and how long will this war spread in Lou Fu? How will the third brother of the county of his time react?" Zhao Yu was not hiding his problem, and said frankly to Zhao Wuming.
Zhao Wuming was slightly embarrassed, and if he cared, he was chaotic. Thinking of this, he quickly calmed down and analyzed Zhao Yu: "No matter how long the Han Kingdom and Lou Fu will fight, it is obvious that the battle of hundreds of thousands of troops will not end in a short time. Therefore, once Zhao Fan learns the news, he will immediately raise troops to the south."
"This is what the widow is worried about, the appearance of the Han envoy on the city wall today cannot be hidden, once the third brother confirms the news that Lou Fu is in the midst of the war, I am afraid that he will immediately raise troops to the south." When Zhao Yu said this, his face was full of sorrow.
Zhao Wuming thought for a while, and replied to Zhao Yu: "It is imperative that we immediately rearm ourselves for war, so as not to be caught off guard when the time comes."
"How can the widow not know this truth, but it's a pity that the widow has too few troops in his hands to deal with it calmly." Zhao Yu told Zhao Wuming about his worries.
Zhao Wuming looked at Zhao Yu, who had a worried look on his face, and asked him, "Once Zhao Fan raises troops to go south, where does the eldest brother think we should stay?"
"With the 50,000 Handan defenders and 50,000 forbidden troops in the hands of the widows, no matter how they defend, they will not escape defeat. Even if you add the 30,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of the fourth brother, it will not help." Zhao Yu heard the inquiry and shook his head helplessly. Maybe only here is Zhao Wuming, he will show such a look.
Zhao Wuming followed Zhao Yu's words and continued to ask him: "In this case, I can only ask for reinforcements."
"The Han Kingdom is going south too fast, and the few people thought that there was still time, so it seems that there is probably not enough time. It's a pity that those people of the Gong clan are still reluctant to give an answer to the widow at this time." Zhao Yu could only sigh when he thought that Lou Fu was about to face the flames of war, that Zhao Fan was about to go south without worries, and that the reactions of those clansmen could only sigh.
Zhao Wuming thought for a while, thought of what the Queen Mother said in the palace that day, and asked Zhao Yu: "Big brother can give an order to let Zhao Yan face the battle, is the prince still unmoved?"
"I'm afraid that Zhao Fang will refuse to fight at that time." Zhao Yu immediately shook his head, he was not optimistic about this matter. Even if Zhao Fan and his third brother Zhao Fan have a personal vendetta, what can they do? How can personal enmity be compared with the interests of the entire clan.
Zhao Wuming fell into contemplation again, and looked at Zhao Yu after a while: "The troops in our hands are insufficient, but we can use these forces to buy time, maybe there is a turning point in this matter."
"Turnaround? Are you saying that the third brother may seek direct help from other countries? “。 A name suddenly flashed in Zhao Yu's mind, Zhongshan Xiangguo Orchestra Pool. But then he seemed to think of something again, and shook his head again: "The third brother has a huge advantage in troops, how could he take risks to do such a thing."
"The little brother doesn't know what the specific turnaround is, but the little brother knows that some things will only turn around if they drag on." Zhao Wuming said to Zhao Yu, but he had a different plan in his heart. With the talents of Han Xin, Zhang Liang and others, he led the army to conquer Lou Fu, and this battle will definitely be won. If it can be dragged until Lou Fu surrenders, this crisis will naturally collapse under the front of the Han army.
Zhao Yu nodded slowly, this is indeed a method that is not a solution: "Since we want to gain time, we can't let the third brother's army surround Handan, once the widow and the outside news are interrupted, I am afraid that there will be no hope at all."
"After the onslaught of Anyang's soldiers, half of the Handan fortifications were still not perfect at this time, and Handan is indeed not suitable for the battlefield." Zhao Wuming agreed with Zhao Yu's analysis. As long as Handan's news can be conveyed, then there is hope of convincing the clan.
Zhao Yu recalled the map of Zhao in his mind, and looked at Zhao Wuming after a while: "Set the place of battle on the front line of Xindu, although the battle line will become long, but it is better than sitting in a lonely city." As for the princess, let the widow think of a way."
"In today's situation, it can only be so." Zhao Wuming thought about it and nodded slightly, then stood up and saluted Zhao Yu: "For today's plan, all we can do is to strengthen the training of soldiers to meet the imminent outbreak of the big war." It's getting late, and the younger brother is retiring, and as for the affairs of the clan, the eldest brother must not be too bothered, as long as he does his best."
"You can only do your best, and the widow will not force you to stay. May you come to the palace more often to visit the queen mother when you have leisure in the future." Zhao Yu originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he could only give up and stay in the future.
Zhao Wuming nodded slightly, then turned around and walked outside.
