Chapter 136: Zhao Guo's attitude
PS: I ran with the boss for a day, sorry. Tomorrow's three watches!
In Handan in late spring in March, catkins are flying, and spring is full of joy. A touch of new green between heaven and earth exudes vitality and brings infinite hope to the world. Because of the change of the Korean throne, Yan has just joined the alliance, so Han, Wei, Zhao, and Yan decided to hold this alliance in Handan to strengthen the alliance.
On the Pingyuan Jun's Mansion, Zhao Shengzheng and Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao had a very happy conversation.
"Brother Wang, the coming of Han, Wei, and Yan to the court this time is really a major event for my Zhao Kingdom. Back then, the hegemony of Duke Qi Huan, Duke Xiang of Song, Duke Wen of Jin, Duke Mu of Qin, and King of Chu Zhuang was nothing more than that. Do you think we're going to go down in history because of this? Zhao Bao, who was upright and young by nature, took the lead in asking.
Zhao Sheng smiled, his younger brother was thinking too simply. However, when he was as young as him, he also had no city. At the moment, Zhao Sheng didn't break it, but just said: "The five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period are hegemonic, but they can't dominate the world." Decades from now, who will remember what they were like? Compared with Siyi Laifu, wouldn't it be happy to chase the north and destroy the temple? ”
Zhao Bao was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and couldn't help asking: "If it's fast, it's fast, but today's countries, either friendly with my Zhao country, or thousands of miles away, where is it so easy to destroy the family and the country?" In my opinion, that's pretty good. Right now, we can also be like the Qin State, looking at the world, and being angry and shocking the world! ”
Zhao Sheng was shocked when he heard this, "All countries do their own thing, wars are endless, and the only way to end today's chaos is to unite the world into one country." I, Zhao Guo, is the head of the Three Jin Dynasty, the overlord of the north, and the responsibility is heavy! ”
Zhao Bao nodded thoughtfully, he originally thought that the biggest enemy of Zhao State was Qin State, listening to Pingyuan Jun say this, Qin, Han, Wei, Qi, Chu, and Yan are all his enemies! But. After so many years of painstaking management, the Qin State has not destroyed a country, but it has continued to expand its territory and expand its territory, and it seems that there is a long way to go to unify the world!
Zhao Sheng didn't know how difficult this matter was, but now that Zhao Guo had finally pulled Qin Guo to the same starting line, no matter what, this opportunity could not be missed.
"Brother Wang. You said that our four-nation alliance is so strong, can we take advantage of the situation to destroy the three kingdoms of Qin, Chu, and Qi? In my opinion, the Qin State is the strongest, and after eliminating the Qin State, our Zhao State is the first power in the world! Zhao Bao, who had a flash of inspiration, spat out a clever trick.
"Difficult! Difficult! Difficult! Zhao Sheng said three difficulties in a row, and sighed: "The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, even if we destroy the Qin State, our losses will definitely be extraordinarily large." When the time comes, let Qi and Chu pick peaches, and the fishermen will benefit, and the gains outweigh the losses! The same reason for attacking Qi and Chu. Qin Guo must be secretly happy. Brother Wang, don't forget, my Zhao State's current military strength is only one-third more than that of Han, Wei, and Yan. ”
"Then neither attack Chu and Qi, nor fight Qin, what is the alliance doing this time? Just because the new king of Korea has just ascended the throne, Yan Guo wants to join in? Zhao Bao asked suspiciously.
"Don't you think the three kingdoms of Han, Wei, and Yan are too strong? The tree is big and noisy, which is not good for the great cause of the reunification of our Zhao country! Zhao Sheng replied a little strangely.
Zhao Bao nodded secretly, especially South Korea. The limelight is too strong, and every time there is a big war, you can catch a county. If it goes on like this, it won't be long before it will be able to increase its strength.
"Brother Wang means that they will resist the Qin State and fight with the Qin State to lose both?" Zhao Bao boldly guessed.
"Actually, we don't need to provoke, Wei blocked Hangu Pass, and South Korea blocked Wuguan. It will be very difficult for the Qin army to get out of the customs in the future, and it will be difficult to expand the territory. It can only be to attack South Korea and Wei! ”
"What about Yan Guo?" Zhao Bao was a little confused.
"Isn't this the country of Qi? The shame of destroying the country, King Qi has always remembered it! Pingyuan-kun replied a little disapprovingly.
"And what is the alliance this time?" Zhao Bao felt that he already knew why he wanted to hold this meeting.
"Warn Qin Guo, let Qin Guoan share a little. Brother Wang, you must know that the Qin State is far from being as weak as you think. The state of Chu once thought so, but the end result was that Yiling was burned again, losing 30,000 soldiers. ”
Zhao Bao nodded solemnly.
Lin Xiangru is like a house. The well-known "Harmony of Harmony" and the two are looking at each other, and they are very happy.
"General Lian, this time the king will punish you for three years, don't take it to heart!" Lin Xiangru said pointedly.
"How dare you! I am responsible for this defeat, and I can get out of great danger, thanks to Shangqing! Shangqing, please! After speaking, Lian Po drank all the wine in the bottle.
Lin Xiangru sipped slightly, smiled and said: "South Korea shines this time, and half of the casualties of the Qin army are caused by the Korean army. Now that South Korea has possessed Nanyang, my Sanjin has since had an advance base to attack and harass the Qin State, which is really gratifying. Does the general think the time is ripe to destroy Qin? ”
Lian Po groaned slightly, then shook his head, and said: "If you want to destroy the foundation of the Qin State, you must have 600,000 troops. In the past, Wei and Korea worked hard to protect the land they had occupied. Now that they have to pay huge casualties, Han and Wei will definitely refuse, let alone Yan Guo. The State of Qi and the State of Chu are recuperating and will definitely not participate. In this way, it has become a duel between my Zhao State and Qin State, which is really not cost-effective! ”
"Yes! That's what I said to the king, and it was only with great difficulty that the king's determination to destroy Qin was finally dispelled. The Qin State is by no means destroyed in one or two major battles, it has been a hundred years since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, and if the Qin army defends the territory, its morale will be strong. The mourning soldiers will win! ”
Lian Po nodded and said, "Now for Zhao Guo, the best way is to sit and watch the success or failure. To push Wei and Korea to the front line of resistance against Qin, we only need a little support. Now that the Qin State is no longer able to advance eastward, can we continue to pass through the Qi State? ”
Lian Po's old words were recalled, when Qin took Chu as an opponent and Zhao took Qi as an opponent, the result was that Qin was like a bamboo, and Bai Qi flooded and burned with 50,000 soldiers, annihilating the main force of more than 400,000 Chu troops, and Chu has been in a slump since then; Zhao State is making slow progress, and the battle situation with Qi State has been repeatedly anxious.
"This is a long-term matter, but I agree with the general. Since the danger of the Qin State no longer exists, it is better to unite the Yan State through the Qi State. The general also knew that the imperial court was now divided into two factions, one wanted to recuperate, and the other wanted to pass through the Qi country. The Plains King wanted to recuperate, but the weight of his words was very heavy, and the king had not made a final decision. ”
"Why should Shangqing be anxious, just obey nature! I believe that even if the king wanted to recuperate, it would not necessarily be possible. The Hu people in the north are very restless, and there are still half of Yanmen County and Taiyuan County in the hands of the Qin army, and they want to fight, there are many! Lian Po enlightened.
Lin Xiangru nodded worriedly, a martial artist like Lian Po would never know more bends behind him, and it would be useless to talk about it.
Handan, the Governor's Mansion.
Because of the excellent performance of the battle of Fa Yan, Zhao Hao had already taken off the clothes of the Tianbu officials (officials who collected taxes) and changed into a military uniform. This experience made Zhao Hao, who likes to read military books, sure that his favorite was to command the army. The big husband should be like this!
"A-Weng, A-Weng, you've lost again!" A young child exclaimed excitedly.
Zhao Hao shook his head helplessly, this son of his is really a genius, every time he talks about the way of setting up the battle array, it will never be difficult for him, but Yan Father and Mother, Zhao Hao still said with a straight face: "Kuo'er, the way to use soldiers, be single-minded, improvised, and flexible is the way to win." Copying the book of war is the most inferior, you know? ”
"Ah Weng, the child knows." The young Zhao Kuo pouted, obviously, he was very unhappy not to be praised by Zhao Hao. But then his face was happy, and he said: "Ah Weng, be honest!" I bet you lost just now, and when the four countries form an alliance, you will take me in to see it, such a grand scene, I don't want to miss it! ”
"Good! Good! I don't count the times I speak. I'll take you there. Zhao Hao said helplessly. It's a big deal that he will let Zhao Kuo pretend to be his personal guard at that time, anyway, he is tall and can be fooled.
Thinking of the constant disputes in the imperial court over what to do next, Zhao Hao asked casually: "Now that my Zhao Guolian is strong Qin, how does Kuo'er think my Zhao State should deal with itself next?" Will you continue to attack Qin or what to say? ”
"Is there a reward for getting it right?" Zhao Kuo's words made Zhao Hao cry and laugh.
"Nope!" Zhao Hao said with a straight face.
Seeing Zhao Hao's displeased look, Zhao Hao muttered in a low voice: "Then Ah Weng should always tell the opinions of the courtiers!" Kuo'er is still a child, where do you know the thoughts of adults. ”
"Pingyuanjun hopes to stop fighting and recuperate; Lin Shangqing hopes to continue to attack the Qi State, which is generally the case. Zhao Hao said.
"What about the king?" Zhao Kuo asked.
"The king is troubled by this!" Zhao replied succinctly.
"Ah Weng, the child thinks that the important thing is not what Zhao Guo should do next, but what the king will choose to do." Zhao Hao said "old-fashioned".
"Humph! You stinky boy, what do you think the king should do? Zhao Hao didn't mind, but was just curious about what kind of answer Zhao Kuo would make.
"It's already the best decision for the king not to make a decision!" Zhao Kuo's words were amazing.
"What do you mean?" For a moment, Zhao Hao was shocked and didn't know what he meant.
"In the past, the child listened to Ah Weng and said how the king obeyed Lin Shangqing's words, but this time it was obvious that he didn't listen to him. Therefore, most of the kings want to recuperate! After all, half of Yanmen and Taiyuan County are still in the hands of the Qin State, and these two places have not been recovered, how can the king be in the mood to fight the Qi State! Zhao Kuo said with an expression that he had mastered.
"Then how could the king hesitate?" When Zhao Hao heard this, he felt a little interesting, so he continued to take the school test.
"I don't know this, I'm just a child. If Aung wants to know what's going on, he'll have to ask the king's concubine, but I don't know anyway. After speaking, Zhao Kuojing ran away.
"Concubine?" Zhao Hao, who stayed in place, realized. (To be continued......)
