Chapter 19: The Friend of Life and Death
King Zhao's Palace.
King Zhao Xiaocheng's heart was frightened, and he couldn't stop murmuring: "Ancestors and ancestors, there are spirits in the sky, bless Da Zhao safe and sound!" Bless Da Zhao safe and sound! ”
As he prayed, he trembled, and his face was pale and bloodless, as if he had been buried in the earth.
Since receiving the news of Qin's troops, King Zhao Xiaocheng has been frightened, and he has not been born in peace for a moment. It didn't take long for the Qin army to come to the city, and his intimidation and fear reached the maximum, and he was in panic all the time.
If it was before the Battle of Changping, even if the Qin soldiers were under the city of Handan, he would not have panicked, because he had hundreds of thousands of elites in his hands at that time. Right now, the elite of Zhao Guo has lost everything, he wants soldiers but no soldiers, no money, no food, he can't help but be frightened, like dancing on the tip of a knife, his heart is pounding.
"Your Excellency, General Lian Po asks to see you." At this moment, I saw Guo Kai walking in quickly and reporting to him.
"Lian Po? Missing! King Zhao Xiaocheng didn't think about it, and blurted out that he didn't want to see Lian Po when he was killed, because it was too embarrassing, and he was thrown to the East China Sea.
In the Battle of Changping, if Lian Po did not give up his military power, Zhao Guo would definitely not have such a difficult situation as he is now, with Lian Po's caution, even if the war is unfavorable and Zhao Guo suffers defeat, he will bring out a lot of troops, not to mention more than 100,000 or 200,000 is not a problem. If there were really more than ten or two hundred thousand elites in hand, Zhao Guo would not be so difficult as he was now.
He wouldn't be as frightened as he was now, and he wanted to hide in his mother's belly.
"Minister, Lian Po has seen the king!" As soon as King Zhao Xiaocheng's words fell, he saw Lian Po striding over and saluting King Zhao Xiaocheng.
Behind Lian Po, followed by a group of chamberlains and red-clothed swordsmen, all of them with a frightened face, not daring to approach Lian Po.
The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, with the prestige of Lian Po, he wants to come to see King Zhao Xiaocheng desperately, and no one can stop him. In the past. It's not that he doesn't know how to do this, but it's not necessary, and the current Zhao State is at a critical juncture of life and death, so he has to do it.
"Lian Po, you are so bold. The widow did not call you. King Zhao Xiaocheng's face was as red as a cockscomb. With a face of shame, he asked and lacked confidence.
This is because he is ashamed of Lian Po, not Lian Po who is ashamed of him.
"The minister dared to ask the king to pay the minister a soldier. The minister is willing to defend the city for Da Zhao. "Lian Po is a straight person, and he didn't take a detour, and he came straight to the point.
"Defending the city? Whose city do you keep? King Zhao Xiaocheng jumped up and screamed as if he had burned his buttocks: "King Xinling is well guarded." Why do you need to keep it? ”
"Xinling-kun? A thing that is not as good as bullshit, just because he is also worthy of defending the city? It's okay not to mention Xinlingjun, but when Xinlingjun is mentioned, Lian Po's anger is soaring, and he roars: "He doesn't know the soldiers, he doesn't know the way to respond, how many men have died in vain?" ”
"Shut up!" Xinlingjun is the general begged by King Zhao Xiaocheng, and King Zhao Xiaocheng will never tolerate insulting Xinlingjun, and shouted in a deep voice. The roar was like thunder.
However, Lian Po not only did not shut up, but instead had a stalk in his neck, and said in a nutshell: "Your Majesty." Don't say anything else, just say that as soon as the Qin army arrived, the matter of Xinling Jun ordering Da Zhao Nan'er to go to the city was a big mistake......"
"Joke!" King Zhao Xiaocheng sneered. said: "You are a general, and you have fought a lifetime of war." You don't even know that. When the Qin army came, Xinling Jun didn't order the soldiers to go to the city to resist, what else could he do? ”
"The king doesn't know that the Qin army will first shoot with a strong crossbow when attacking the city, then burn it with fierce fire oil, and then attack the city. Xinlingjun didn't know the tactics of the Qin army, and as soon as he came, he let the soldiers go to the city, which was to send the soldiers to death, and they died countless times in vain! Lian Po burst into tears and said: "Your Majesty, the current Handan is in danger, every time you die, you will have less combat power, and you will die as little as possible, how can he fight like this, how can he fight like this." ”
Lian Po is a dignified seven-foot man, among the Tengchong army, he will not frown, such a tearful thing is still the first time in his life, it is really what Xinlingjun did made him too sad.
"You go! Come on! Get lost! Get out! Roll as far as you want! King Zhao Xiaocheng's anger was even greater, and Chong Lian roared loudly, saying: "You remember to the widow, you are not allowed to say a bad sentence about Xinlingjun, otherwise, the widow will definitely destroy you." ”
If the Qin army broke through Handan as soon as it came, King Zhao Xiaocheng would definitely believe that Xinlingjun was Zhao Kuo's second, but the Qin army was difficult to make progress under the brave resistance of the Zhao army, in the heart of King Zhao Xiaocheng, Xinlingjun was a great talent, and he was the savior sent by God to Zhao State, and he absolutely did not allow Lian to be offended in the slightest.
If King Zhao Xiaocheng knew the soldiers, he would know that what Lian Po said was the truth. The problem is that he definitely doesn't know soldiers, if he knows soldiers, he won't treat Zhao Kuo as a genius, Zhao Kuo is his attendant, the two grew up together since childhood, and Zhao Kuo has a deep influence on him.
"Your Majesty!" Lian Po shouted.
"Drag it out!" King Zhao Xiaocheng waved his hand very ruthlessly, and a team of red-clothed swordsmen came up, shaking their heads slightly, very unwilling, but it was the king's order that could not be disobeyed, so he had to blast Lian Po out.
"Da Zhao is resting! Da Zhao is resting! Lian Po wiped his tears while looking up to the sky and shouting.
However, it had no effect, and Lian Po had to leave alone.
Lian Po arrived like a lost soul, and the guards hurriedly said: "Go home." ”
"No, go see Qin Yiren." Lian Po waved his hand.
"See Qin Yiren?" The guards were surprised: "General, Qin Yiren is a tiger wolf Qin person, and he is the mortal enemy of Da Zhao, how can you go to see him?" ”
"But he knows it." Although Qin Yiren is the sworn enemy of Zhao State, he can often talk about Lian Po's heart, so that Lian Po is a confidant, at this time, Lian Po's heart is like ashes, and he needs a confidant to talk to him, so he naturally thinks of Qin Yiren.

Qin Yiren's mansion.
Qin Yiren was drinking with Huang Shigong and Wei Yi.
"Watching the battle for a few days, I have some thoughts on the way to use soldiers." Qin Yiren picked up the bronze wine lord and said with a smile: "If you don't watch the soldiers, you don't know that you can use the soldiers like this." ”
"Yes, I've benefited a lot, too." Wei Yi nodded heavily, greatly agreeing.
"I've also benefited." Huang Shigong is a hidden soldier, and watching the battle of Qin and Zhao is also quite rewarding.
In the past few days, watching the soldiers, the three of them have their own gains, they are all very happy, and their hearts are happy, Qin Yiren then set up a banquet and drank with Huang Shigong and Wei Yi.
The three of them raised the bronze wine lord and were about to drink it all, at this moment. I only heard the sound of heavy footsteps, and I saw Lian Po with a black face, walking quickly, as if Qin Yiren owed him gold.
Meng Zhao, Ma Gai, Fan Tong and Lu Jujian rushed over, trying to stop Lian Po. But it didn't work out.
Although the skills of the four are good. But compared with a warrior like Lian Po, there is still a big gap.
"Brother Lian Po, what happened to you?" Huangshi Gongda was surprised, and his face was confused.
And not only he was confused. It's Qin Yiren and Wei Yi, who is not confused?
is so dignified, Lian Po has a dark face, as if someone borrowed his grain to return his chaff, who can think about it?
Lian Po didn't say a word. He snatched the bronze wine lord from Huang Shigong's hand, and drank it dry as soon as he craned his neck. Wu kept on his own, picked up the wine vessel, put his mouth on the vessel, drank it all in one go, threw the wine vessel, and said in a deep voice: "I'm angry with me!" ”
These words are too abrupt, and they don't know why Huang Shigong and Wei Yi are so talented.
"Brother Lian Po. What happened to you? You have to speak. Huang Shigong was very anxious.
Lian Po was silent.
"I see." Huang Shigong wanted to ask again, but Qin Yiren hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile: "If I guess correctly, General Lian Po went to see King Zhao and wanted to contribute to Zhao State." There is no desire to serve the country, but there is no way to serve the country, right? ”
Huang Shigong and Wei Yu's eyes widened, staring at Lian Po. I'd love to verify.
"How did you know?" Lian Poda was surprised, and a pair of eyes like copper bells scraped around Qin Yiren's body. As if to scrape out the answer.
"You've got it all written on your face, can I not know?" Qin Yiren said with a smile.
Lian Po touched his face, stared at Qin Yiren, and did not speak.
"You are a loyal minister, loyal, dedicated to the Zhao State, the Zhao State is now being attacked by the Qin State, can you not help? Can you not sit idly by? Qin Yiren waved his hand and instructed Meng Zhao to set up another seat for Lian Po, and then said: "You are so frustrated, only King Zhao can do this without you!" ”
"Reasonable! Reasonable! Huang Shigong and Wei Yi praised in unison.
"You're such a confidant!" Lian Po nodded heavily, and finally had a look in his godless eyes, sat down, and said, "That's right, that's it." I'm stuffy in my heart, I have no place to relieve my boredom, and I want to find you to relieve my boredom. ”
"Haha!" Huang Shi Gong and Wei Yi raised their heads to the sky and laughed.
Huang Shigong even pointed at Qin Yiren and Lian Po, and commented: "One is a loyal minister of Zhao State, and the other is the king and grandson of Qin State, and they are actually close friends. ”
This is definitely a good story, Wei Yu nodded in agreement.
In the Warring States Period, close friends often became the enemy of life and death, which was a special scenery in the Warring States Period.
"You've come to the right place." Qin Yiren smiled: "I will not only relieve your boredom, but also make a plan for you, maybe you can regain military power." ”
"Oh." Not only was Lian Po surprised, but so were Huang Shigong and Wei Yu, with shocked faces.
"You're not lying?" Lian Po put down the wine lord in his hand and asked in a deep voice.
Qin Zhao is mortal enemy, the current Qin and Zhao countries are fighting to the death, Qin Yiren is making suggestions for Lian Po, which is to set up a great enemy for Qin, although Lian Po believes in Qin Yiren, he is also a little skeptical.
"You must have thought that Qin and Zhao are engaged in a life-and-death war, and I am making enemies for the Qin State by giving you advice, right? You have nothing to do that way. However, I won't care, if Daqin wants to dominate the world, there are many difficulties and obstacles to overcome, and there are not many of you. "Qin Yiren can see it.
This is the truth, and there is no lack of pride, which is convincing, and Huang Shigong and Wei Yi's eyes are shining.
"If Great Qin can't even defeat you Lian Po, how can you dominate the world?" Qin Yiren asked again.
"How daring!" Lian Po cheered loudly.
"All you have to do now is be patient and wait for your time. Xinlingjun is just a person who sells his reputation and reputation, although Handan is still there at the moment, who knows when it will fall? Only then will you have the opportunity to seize the handle of the army in one fell swoop. "Qin Yiren has quite an idea for Lian.
"Gongzi Xie, Lian quite understands." Lian Po's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized, and said: "From today on, Lian Po and Gongzi are friends of life and death." ”
Lian Po's reputation is not said, a promise, he said that it is a friend of life and death, and it is a friend of life and death. It is a blessing in life to have a friend of life and death like Lian Po, and Qin Yiren is very happy.
