Tian Dan thought for a while, and replied rather gloomily: "In this battle, if there is no conspiracy, I am afraid that it will not be the strength of my country to stop." ”

"But......" Tian Dan wanted to say and stopped.

"However, the countries that can help me may not easily send troops at this time!" Zhao Kuo continued Tian Dan's unspeakable words.

"How so?" Lian Po asked a little puzzled.

Zhao Kuo and Tian Dan, who have always been in the center of the Zhao court, of course know how this can happen, but the two of them seem to be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis - there are words of suffering. glanced at each other, and the helplessness was fully revealed.

What could it be?

It's not because the wise King Zhao fell for the Qin people's discord and gave his good allies out of the group chat.

But Zhao Kuo, who is a courtier, can't complain about the king's no.

After organizing the language a little, Zhao Kuo said slowly: "Naturally, the reason for the trickery of the Qin people caused Wei, Chu and other countries who are friendly with our country to misunderstand that there was collusion between me and Qin, so they failed to send troops to rescue each other in time. ”

"But that's not the root cause." Zhao Kuo took King Zhao's question with one sentence, and then continued to analyze: "The five countries' thoughts now are not to rescue Zhao State, but to be weak in Qin and Zhao. ”

"If the five countries send troops to Hangu at this time, Hangu warns, the Qin army retreats from the party, Zhao Quan takes the land of the party, and Qin is not gone, and there is a strong Zhao, and there is no benefit to other countries?" Zhao Kuo simply opened up and said: "But if you sit back and wait for the decisive battle of the Qin and Zhao armies, and the defeat of Zhao, with the ability of the old general, the Qin army will not be comfortable, and the loss of troops will not be a problem." At this time, no matter whether it is to aid Zhao or attack Qin, the Qin army that has lost troops will retreat, but at that time, even if Zhao gains land, it has lost its military strength, and although Qin has won Zhao, it has not gained, which is called Qin and Zhao's weakness! ”

Zhao Kuo's words made everyone wake up from a dream, and at the same time, they couldn't help but secretly curse the shamelessness of the countries. Of course, it also indicates that Tian Dan's unspoken plan has been stillborn.

"Inhuman! How can you deceive me Zhao Guo like this! Lian Po had to vent the anger in his heart.

After calming down a little, he found that it was himself, the god of war who pushed Zhao Guo into a dilemma. The three-year confrontation exhausted Zhao's treasury and Qin's patience, and even more so that the countries had no intention of aiding Zhao.

If he could have obeyed King Zhao's orders earlier and launched a general attack in time, even if he failed in the end, even if the land of Shangdang fell into the hands of the Qin army, if other countries participated, Shangdang would have been lost and recovered in the blink of an eye.

hateful, he has always been obsessed with holding the party's important land;

It's annoying that I have always been obsessed with the gains and losses of the party, one city and one place, but I don't know the general trend of the world;

It's a shame that he only relies on arbitrary cognition to plan a protracted battle.

Thinking of this, Lian Po almost beat his chest. Fortunately, in order to suppress the mania and depression in his heart from his instinct for many years, he supported the edge of the sand table with both hands, staring at the intertwined enemy posture on the sand table, trying to find a way out for the red Zhao Jun in the chaotic circles.

"A detour to attack the grain route? No, no, this has been denied! ”

"Retreat to the Great Wall of Bailishi? No, no, it's no different from Danshui, it's still a situation of being dragged to death. ”

"Directly attack Danshui? No, no, the combat power is not enough at all, Wu Anjun has already arrived, and no matter how hard he fights, I am afraid it will be a result of annihilation. ”

No, it still doesn't work, what the hell is going to do.

The old general made a gesture in front of the sand table, but found that he couldn't break the game no matter what, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept leaving from his gray hair, and his old face was even more depressed.

"Is the sky going to kill my Zhao Kingdom!" Lian Po looked at the sand table of the two armies, his heart was full of despair, his feet could barely stand, and he was about to sit on the ground.

But he saw that the young man beside him was looking at him calmly, and although his face was solemn, he was not flustered...... This calmness is like a beam of light in the dark, directly penetrating Lian Po's dark chest!

"Does the general have a way to save the country?" Lian Po looked at Zhao Kuo steadily, as if a person in drowning had grasped a straw.

Even General Tian Dan on the side immediately looked over, and from the eyes of the two old generals, Zhao Kuo saw expectation, hope, and even a hint of threat. As long as they say half a "no", the two generals are bound to know for themselves what it means to be "honest and old, can you still eat"!

The old general laughed. The two generals are still ......" Before Zhao Kuo's words were finished, he was forced back by the aura in front of him.

I saw the person in front of me, his eyes were already red, and there was a possibility of breaking out and hurting people at any time.

Zhao Kuo understands that the two generals have been subdued by themselves, and as long as their plans have the slightest possibility of victory, the two veterans will definitely not hesitate to go to the soup.

And this is also the intention of Zhao Kuo to hold this high-level military conference in his hometown.

It's time to put your plans out on the tray!

Immediately, he took the baton handed by General Tian's hands, walked around the sand table twice, and then slowly spoke: "First, this battle is unavoidable, and if you retreat, the party will be lost, the army will be in danger, and Handan will die, so you must fight!" ”

Everyone present nodded slowly.

Zhao Kuo then continued: "Second, the battle is the victory, and what General Tian said is extremely reasonable. Up to now, in the battle of the Shangdang, Qin Zhao has invested no less than one million troops, which can be described as unparalleled, and my Zhao State is no longer able to win this battle alone, so seeking foreign aid is the only hope. ”

Everyone nodded again, what Zhao Kuo said was a conclusion that had been reached in the military discussion, but how to seek foreign aid was the most important thing, and the most difficult thing was the difficulty.

Seeing that they were about to talk about the important point, the three of them also held their breath and stared at Zhao Kuo, lest they miss a word.

I saw Zhao Kuo smiling slightly, holding the baton in his hand, pointing towards the sand table, pointing from afar, everyone followed the trajectory and looked, it was actually a three-year-long Danshui defense line.

Without waiting for the three of them to ask, Zhao Kuo's words had already resounded in his ears: "The general's method is to attack!" ”

……

"Attack?" The three people present were all stunned.

How to attack?

Where to attack!

Danshui defense line?! I am still not enough to defend myself, how can I attack? Isn't it self-destruction!

"If we ask for the help of other countries, our army will have to break its head and bleed, in this case, if we let this head break in the place where we want to break, at least there is no limit to life." Zhao Kuo explained slightly.

However, such an explanation was obviously not enough to satisfy the curiosity of the three of them, especially Lian Po and Tian Dan, and wanted the close cooperation of the two, Zhao Kuo had to continue to tell his plan in detail.
