For the Qin army, this was clearly a great victory.

As a result, the current form has become, more than 160,000 Zhao troops were surrounded by nearly 300,000 Qin troops on the west bank of Danshui.

And then things seem to be simpler.

As long as the Qin army slowly closes the encirclement, waits for the Zhao army's counterattack, and then waits for the Zhao army to run out of ammunition and food, or surrender, or ......

Of course, Zhao Jun's idea is also very simple - wait.

Waiting for the changes in the international situation, waiting for the attack of the Qin army, and waiting for the arrival of reinforcements......

Naturally, the news that Zhao Kuo was seriously injured and that Zhao Jun was trapped on the east bank of Danshui was like wings, and it was quickly transmitted to the capital of the Six Kingdoms.

War is always a continuation of politics. And with the siege of the Zhao army, around the Battle of Changping, a fierce political game also began.

The news of defeat first spread to the city of Handan.

It was the military situation reported in the name of Tian Dan, and after the situation was clearly introduced, it was a suggestion made in the name of Tian Dan: send an envoy quickly, contact Qi Chu, attack Qin and save Zhao! Of course, the situation in the Great Grain Mountain, that is not mentioned at all.

Of course, this is not Tian Dan's real suggestion, and it is not the real idea of Zhao Kuo behind Tian Dan.

To put it bluntly, Qi Chu is just a cover for the Wei State.

And Tian Dan also elaborated on the reason for inviting Qi Chu in the report: Yan State is not close to Qin, Han Wei is weak, and it is not enough to resist Qin.

This is not a complete falsehood, at least the weakness of Yan near Qin and Han is true, but Wei has made a lot of progress in recent years, and the magic is that in the battle of Yique, Han and Wei were allied forces, and they were defeated by the Qin army together.

And the reason why Qi Chu is brought in is that it would be best if the two countries could be persuaded to enter the army, and it didn't matter if there was none. Their role was to cover the real rescue army, the Wei army, and to put pressure on the Qin army to attack the Zhao army fortress, which was "powerless to resist".

The defeat was reported, and in the Longtai Palace, there was a burst of chickens and dogs.

"Zhao Kuo lost his teacher and humiliated the country, please send an envoy to my king and behead him." Lou Chang suggested at the right time.

Pingyuanjun, who heard the words, was immediately startled, and before Zhao Kuo left that day, he asked Lou Chang to behead, and this son really ......

Seeing a fierce look in King Zhao's eyes, Ping Yuanjun just wanted to go out of class to argue for Zhao Kuo, but was preempted by the old man on the side.

"Ahem......" The old man came out of work and coughed lightly twice, and the originally lively Longtai Palace instantly quieted down. The weight of the old man's prestige can be seen, and even Pingyuan Jun does not dare to plunder his edge.

"Shangqing, but you have something to say?" King Zhao's eyes flashed, and he changed his eyes to a gentle one, and said, "Come on, give Shangqing a seat." Shangqing and speak slowly, and the widow listens. ”

The old man who came out of the class was none other than the secretary of Zhao Guo, who was seriously ill and was about to die-Lin Xiangru.

Because of his body, Lin Xiangru Lin Shangqing has been asking about court affairs for many years, and more often than not, it is just a good-looking ornament. As a result, when his old friend General Lian Po was replaced that day, Lin Xiangru was unable to turn the tide. And now that Zhao Kuo's defeat has arrived, Lin Xiangru has dragged his sick body to the court.

In the eyes of many courtiers, Lin Xiangru answered at this time, obviously to be angry for the old general Lian Po, after all, Lin Xiangru's friendship with Lian Po is well known.

And once Lin Xiangru spoke, even if Zhao Kuo didn't die, I am afraid that he would have to shed his skin, and Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, couldn't help but secretly regret why he didn't go out to defend Zhao Kuo for the first time.

It's just that Lin Xiang's words surprised everyone present.

"Doctor Lou said this." Lin Xiangru thanked the king for his offer, but he didn't sit down, but turned around and looked at Lou Chang steadily, until he looked uncomfortable, and then continued: "It's punishable." ”

Damned?

Who can be punished?

Zhao Kuo, or ...... Lou Chang?

Everyone was a little puzzled by the meaning of Lin Xiangru's words for a while, but Lou Chang was very happy, but he thought that Lin Xiangru was recognizing his suggestion, and immediately jumped up and down to echo Zhao Kuo.

Lin Xiangru's eyes narrowed slightly, and the light in his eyes immediately gathered, just like when Qin Ting was hugging and falling and his family was on the same day.

"I invite the person who has been punished, Doctor Lou Changye." Lin Xiangru said lightly.

is just eleven words, but it makes Lou Chang fall into an ice cave. What's the situation, how did you run on yourself? Shouldn't you be upset with your old friend? I'm the same as you!

Lou Chang couldn't figure out why Lin Xiangru would raise the butcher knife to himself, obviously he was fighting for him and his old friend.

Also, how can a refined egoist understand what it means to "live and die for the benefit of the family and the country", and never understand what it means to be "selfless".

"Up, Shangqing." Lou Chang's words were a little trembling: "Shangqing, I missaid." ”

The king of Zhao also said with some puzzlement: "Shangqing, this matter is about Zhao Kuo, why not about Doctor Lou?" ”

"My Wang Rongyu: What Lou Chang said, disaster to the country and the people, not killing is not enough for the people to be angry, and the heart of the army is also good." Lin Xiangru saluted slowly and said: "Regardless of whether the crime of this battle is Zhao Kuo, and regardless of General Zhao's feat of being a soldier, being seriously injured, and life and death unknown, Wei Chen only has one question for Dr. Lou." ”

Lin Xiangru then looked at Lou Chang again, and said again in a deep voice: "Let me ask you, the army is lonely, deep in siege, you don't think about how to rescue it, but you advise to kill the main general Zhao Kuo, do you want to take over from the army, or do you want to give up my army of tens of thousands of Zhao to Qin Junyan?" ”

When the ministers of Zhao Ting heard this, they also suddenly realized that if it was a mistake to replace General Lian Po with Zhao Kuo that day, then it would be even more wrong to kill Zhao Kuo now.

As Lin Shangqing said, killing Zhao Kuo at this time is not only useless, but may also completely kill the army. Think about it, the general who had just been born and died with him was killed by a piece of royal order, and it was strange that the soldiers did not mutiny. Even if the soldiers did not mutiny, would the army that had lost its military spirit and command still be able to highlight the encirclement of the Qin army?

Even if you want to deal with Zhao Kuo, you have to wait until this battle is completely over! Killing his own general in battle, or a seriously injured general, isn't this a joke, with the lives of tens of thousands of Zhao soldiers!

And with Lin Shangqing's reminder, the Qin-Zhao peace talks proposed by Lou Chang before, which led to the fact that Zhao had no more reinforcements, and the matter of jumping up and down to instigate King Zhao when Zhao Kuo changed generals, was also remembered by everyone.

I couldn't help but feel that there was something wrong with everyone's eyes looking at Lou Chang, could this person really be a guest of the Qin State, right?!

Lou Chang looked at everyone's expressions, and suddenly felt that the situation was not good, and immediately said loyally to King Zhao: "Weichen is not thinking properly, and I ask my king to punish him!" ”
