Two days later, south of Handan City.

Zhao Kuo stood on the chariot, wearing armor and clothes that his mother had sewn for him.

Heroic and majestic.

The people who passed by stopped one after another and looked at Zhao Kuo with reverence.

There were no flags to cover the sky, no army to wait for, and no Manchu civil and military send-off.

Le Yi, Tian Dan, Li Mu and others stood on the chariot behind Zhao Kuo.

Behind them were the disciples who followed Zhao Kuo to Changping, including a hundred craftsmen and a hundred physicians, as well as the only remaining twenty disciples of the Mo family in Handan.

At the back, there were 500 soldiers with their chests held out.

There are two kinds of soldiers in the Zhao State, one is an ordinary soldier and the other is a private soldier.

Private soldiers belonged to the nobility, but they were subject to the call of the monarch in time of war.

This is a tradition left over from the Zhou Dynasty, but it is somewhat different from the Zhou Dynasty.

When Zhao Hao was alive, the Mafu Junfu had a thousand private soldiers.

After Zhao Hao died, King Zhao cut it in half, leaving only five hundred.

Later, King Zhao found some excuses and cut off the 300 private soldiers of the Mafu Junfu, leaving only 200 private soldiers for Zhao Kuo.

The strength of these private soldiers is very strong, and each of them has internal qi, and it is not a problem to be ten with one.

Zhao Kuo's friends Zhao Miao, Fei Pan and others, without exception, did not come, and all of them were locked up at home by their parents.

Zhao Kuo didn't count on them either, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Zhao Guo would definitely lose if there was no accident, who would let his children die.

In order to apologize, they still sent some private soldiers to help Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, also sent Zhao Kuo one hundred and fifty private soldiers, and gathered five hundred private soldiers for Zhao Kuo.

On the battlefield, these people are Zhao Kuo's personal guards.

In addition, King Zhao did not send a large army to support Changping.

Because there are no more soldiers in the Zhao Kingdom.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Xiangru and Pingyuanjun came together.

Zhao Kuo turned over and got out of the car.

"The king asked me to send you." Lin Xiangru said, his body seemed to have recovered somewhat, at least not like before, and it looked like he could return to the West at any time.

"Thank you, Gong Lin."

Zhao Kuo didn't ask King Zhao why he didn't come.

It's like he didn't ask King Zhao why he had to replace Lian Po with him.

"I didn't expect you to really be able to convince them, perhaps, you will bring a surprise to Zhao Guo."

Lin Xiangru looked at Tian Dan and Le Yi in armor not far away, and felt a little incredible.

Tian Dan and Le Yi's identities in Zhao are very special.

Although they were crowned kings, they did not serve in the court like Lian Po Lin Xiangru.

It's more about the identity of the guest secretary.

Even King Zhao couldn't order them.

Zhao Kuo was the first person to invite two famous generals.

"They actually want to contribute to Zhao Guo, but they have never had the opportunity." Zhao Kuo explained.

As for why there is no such opportunity.

Zhao Kuo didn't say.

Lin Xiangru didn't ask.

"Before, I always thought that you would only talk about military books and not know how to fight, and if the army was put in your hands, Zhao Guo would most likely be defeated. Now, I've changed my mind. Lin Xiangru said.

"Actually, you were right." Zhao Kuo wanted to say this, but now that he was on the march, it was too late to say anything.

"I'll be careful." Zhao Kuo said.

"Learn more from your father, your father is the pride of our Zhao country, and I believe that you will also become the pride of my Zhao country."

Lin Xiangru is like an old father, and he keeps admonishing.

"I will take your teachings to heart." Zhao Kuo nodded.

"The king did not give General Lian Po a new appointment." Lin Xiangru said suddenly.

"Thank you Gong Lin, I understand."

Zhao Kuo knew that Lin Xiangru told him that he could leave Lian Po behind to help him.

If you don't worry about Lian Po robbing him of military power.

Does Zhao Kuo care?

He only cares if he can survive.

Then, Zhao Kuo walked in front of Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains.

"You're not the same man you used to be, so I won't say anything more. After arriving in Changping, if you need anything, you can write to me. Zhao Sheng said.

"Thank you, Plains-kun." Zhao Kuo saluted.

Finally, Zhao Kuo came to his family.

The old lady helped Zhao Kuo finish tidying up her clothes, and only said one sentence: "Come back alive." ”

"The child will be triumphant." Zhao Kuo bowed and said.

"Big brother, you must behead Wang Gong's dog."

Zhao Mu clenched his fists, very excited, as if it was him who went to the battlefield, not Zhao Kuo.

"After the eldest brother is gone, the family will depend on you. Don't just know how to play every day, help your mother share more. Zhao Kuo patted Zhao Mu on the shoulder.

"I will." Zhao Mu nodded

"Big brother, stay safe." Zhao Tong stepped forward and gently hugged his eldest brother.

"Wait for me."

Zhao Kuo's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one.

Then he turned over and got into the car, pointing his long knife to the south. "Let's go."

"I wish the horse a triumphant."

Lin Xiangru and Zhao Sheng bowed to their foreheads and bowed for a long time.

It wasn't until Zhao Kuo's figure gradually disappeared that the two slowly got up.

……

An extremely remote house in Handan City.

One of them suddenly stopped, looked around carefully, and one dodged and got in.

"Hurry up and report to the prime minister, Zhao Kuo is on the expedition."

……

Palace.

"King, Zhao Kuo has already set off." Lin Xiangru bowed and said.

"Lin Qing, did you say that I sent Zhao Kuo to replace Lian Po?" Zhao Wangdan asked.

"Minister...... I don't know. ”

……

Wei State, somewhere stargazing platform.

The two old men sat opposite each other.

His beard was white and his beard was long, but his face was not wrinkled, like a baby.

It has the demeanor of a fairy wind bone.

The two of them are dressed in star charts and step on the yin and yang gossip maps.

The gossip diagram blooms with light and keeps spinning.

The two old men stared intently at the starry sky in the north.

Stars were reflected in their pupils.

Although it was broad daylight and the stars could not be seen, it had little impact on the two masters who were proficient in celestial phenomena.

The star map on the two old men flashed and flashed, and each star could find a corresponding star in the sky.

After a long time, Gander spoke: "The heavens have changed. ”

"It's changed since the thirteenth day ago, and now it's even further away." Shi Shen said.

"The star is even brighter, the two stars that were originally dim in the north bloom again, and the star in the west that is about to fall, for some reason, actually changed its life against the sky. The sky is in chaos, and the wheels of fate don't know where they're going. ”

Gander muttered to himself.

"It stands to reason that with such a huge change, Emperor Star will definitely be affected, why is there no change?"

Shi Shen looked at the celestial phenomena and was a little puzzled.

He had previously observed that there would be an emperor star in Handan, Zhao State.

Now that the Emperor Star has been born, there are just some problems with the timing, which is very unreasonable.

"That's not right!"

Gander stood up abruptly, his mouth wide open, his face full of disbelief.

"The positions of the two emperor stars coincide!"
