Don't look at the current momentum of the Yue State is even more fierce than that of Gou Jian's destruction of Wu back then, in the end, it is a flash in the pan after all, slow is a few months, if it is short, at this time the Chu State may have begun to fight back.

"It's a pity that Yue Guo didn't listen to the advice." Lin Xiangru shook his head.

Zhao Guo had already sent someone to secretly tell Yue Guo that there must be a conspiracy in Chu State, but unfortunately Yue Guo was blinded by the huge interests in front of him in the end.

Perhaps Yue Guo also knew that Chu might have a conspiracy, but Yue Guo, who had lost his mind, only saw the splendor after success, ignoring that the consequences of failure were not something it could bear.

"Do you want to find a way to save King Yue?" Yu Xin thought for a moment and asked.

"There's no need, after this battle, even if King Yue can escape back, he will lose the strength to fight back." Wei Wuji shook his head.

Zhao Guo is not a philanthropist, and he helps Yue Guo without asking for anything in return.

The value of the Yue State to the Zhao State is only to contain the Chu State, and the Yue State that has lost the power to contain the Chu State has no use value for the Zhao State.

"Then forget it, let's focus on Yan and Qin." Yu Xin sighed, feeling a little sorry for Yue Guo.

"Anyway...... Has there been any movement in Yan Guo lately?" Lin Xiangru asked.

"Nope." Zhao Sheng shook his head.

From the moment Zhao Kuo became the king of Zhao, Zhao began to vigorously develop intelligence organizations, which were initially all over Zhao and soon spread to surrounding countries and even Donghu.

But most of the information of Yan Guo is about Xiangguo Jiangqu, and as for the information of King Yan, there are generally only two words: cultivating immortals.

Other than that, there's nothing else.

The other monarchs are so good, and King Yan doesn't even dare to be interested in women, unless they are fairies.

"Is there any news from General Qin Kai?" Lin Xiangru asked.

"He refused, saying that he did not want to turn his back on King Yan Zhao." Le Yi shook his head.

Qin Kai is different from him, he went through the golden platform to worship the generals and went through the formal procedures to apply for the Yan Kingdom.

Comparatively speaking, the status is more equal.

And Le Yi only respects King Yan Zhao, and he doesn't have much sense of belonging to Yan Kingdom, and King Yan Hui after him has nothing to do with him.

Repay the king's intention on the golden platform and sweep the seventy cities of Qi country.

It is enough to repay the kindness of King Yan Zhao.

Since the new King Yan doesn't trust me, then I'll go.

And Qin Kai himself is a native of Yan State, and he was promoted step by step by King Yan Zhao from the bottom, and he has deep feelings for King Yan Zhao and Yan Guo.

If he was thirty years younger, Qin Kai might have moved, but now he is no longer the impulsive and enthusiastic young man who dreams of worshipping the marquis.

The years of fast horses and whips are gone, and no matter how wise Zhao Jun is, he is not his King Yan Zhao.

"King Yan Zhao is worthy of a generation of Ming monarchs, even after decades, Yu Yin still shelters the Yan Kingdom, but unfortunately King Yan is mediocre and does not understand Corporal Lixian. The generals either fled abroad or died on their sickbeds." Lin Xiangru said with emotion.

"It's getting harder and harder to dig talents, and I haven't been able to find them recently." Zhao Sheng sighed.

At first, Zhao Guo was able to attract a large number of talents with his recruitment order and Handan Academy, and then relying on him Zhao Sheng and Wei Wuji, Xunzi's face got another batch of talents.

Later, Zhao Kuo began to arrange envoys to invite some famous people with surnames, including those who are in the field and those who are not, and those who have not made a career.

Even the younger generation of generals such as Wang Qian, Xiang Yan, and Qiang Qi knew that it was impossible to join the Zhao State, and Zhao Kuo sent people to harass them with the mentality of having dates and no dates.

[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]

Come here.

However, Zhao Sheng obviously forgot about a group of water conservancy masters who were dug up from Han and Wei some time ago.

"Cultivating your own talents is the king, and this year Handan College can have many outstanding students graduate." Yu Xin said with a smile, a few years have passed, and Handan College has finally been able to produce talents stably, and it can be regarded as living up to Zhao Guo's big investment.

Of course, having more talents is not necessarily a good thing, just like the Wei State, which has outstanding people and talents, and they all ran away, and then turned around to help other countries fight Wei.

Therefore, how to retain talent is also very important.

If in the past, Zhao Guo could not provide so many jobs, and naturally he could not retain so many talents, but now everyone can not only join the army and politics, but also work, medicine and agriculture.

Coupled with the continuous expansion of the Zhao Kingdom, it is enough to accommodate so many talents.

In addition, Handan College will assess students every year, and all students who pass the assessment will be given first-class to third-class titles, and according to what they have learned, they will choose to join the army, politics, work and medicine...... As long as you contribute enough, you can upgrade your knighthood.

Of course, the promotion of these titles is not so easy.

It seems that the easiest to join the army is to risk their lives, and the others are relatively safe, but except for a very few geniuses who are open, for most people, it is difficult to ascend to the throne.

If you leave the Zhao Kingdom, you will regain all titles and benefits.

Therefore, even some scribes who are reluctant to step into the official career will choose to get a quiet job in Handan College, fishing, drinking tea when they have nothing to do.

This also led to a lot of people eating white food in Handan College.

"Speaking of which, what do you think of those who don't do anything in Handan Academy?" Lin Xiangru frowned and asked, he was particularly unhappy with these eating white food.

The country of Zhao was built by us with hard work, and as a result, you enjoyed the blessings first?

"You're not going to want to get rid of them, are you?" Yu Xin asked in surprise.

"Am I such a reckless person?" Lin Xiangru glanced at Yu Xin, "It's not impossible to drive them away, but it's not impossible to find something for them to do."

"They should really find something to do." Gongsun Long thought so.

"Be careful, don't drive people away." Zhao Sheng admonished.

"Don't worry, just let them teach the students. And it's not much, as a teacher in the academy, it's not too much to teach two disciples a year." Lin Xiangru said.

Even if these two are only talents in one county, Zhao Guo has also earned them, and after the number of people increases, there will inevitably be talents in one county, or even one country.

Since these people have arrived in Zhao State, they are actually more or less ready to contribute to Zhao State, but they just don't want to be officials.

On the contrary, if even two students are not willing to teach every year, then there is no need for Zhao Guo to keep these people.

"It's okay to keep it for nothing, and other people will have opinions." Zhao Sheng said.

Zhao has a great cause and doesn't care about this bit of money and food, but others don't think so.

I work hard every day, and as a result, I don't do as much as others who don't do anything, and normal people will be dissatisfied.

Zhao Guo at least can't chill these people who really contribute to the country.
