Bai Qi, who was already a little full of food and drink, finally remembered the question in his heart, and asked Zhao Kuo, "Kuo, where are your soldiers hiding?"

That's right, after three rounds of drinking, the relationship between the two has risen to the level of confidants. And the title of Zhao Kuo naturally changed from Ma Fujun's honorific to a close title like "Kuo".

At this time, Zhao Kuo was obviously more relaxed than just now, and his body was already in a half-leaning form. Hearing Bai Qi's question, Zhao Kuo didn't have the idea of sitting upright, his tongue rolled, and a large piece of meat was swallowed into his abdomen, muttering, "In the Great Grain Mountain."

"Daliangshan?"

Speaking unintentionally, the listener is intentional. Rao is Bai Qi already had some guesses in his heart, and after hearing Zhao Kuo's answer, he couldn't help but be surprised!

Da Liangshan, a simple three words, explains too many things.

Daliang Mountain, east of Danshui, the land where the Zhao army accumulated grain and grass. You must know that after Zhao Kuo arrived at the Shangdang battlefield, he immediately began to attack, and soon the whole army launched an attack on the Qin army fortress on the west bank of Danshui.

Once the army crosses the Danshui, and more than 100,000 troops change their defenses to the east bank and enter the Great Grain Mountain, their scouts will not be unaware. That is to say, before the Zhao army crossed the Danshui to attack the barrier, Zhao Kuo had already secretly hidden more than 100,000 elites of the Zhao army in the Great Grain Mountain.

And if you want to do this, there is only one possibility: as soon as Zhao Kuo arrived at the main camp of the Zhao army in Hanwangshan, he began the operation of hiding soldiers.

In other words, before Zhao Kuo came to the party, he had already decided to hide his troops and fight.

"Why?" Bai Qi continued to ask.

Of course, what Bai Qi asked was not why the location was located in Daliangshan, in fact, there were only a few soldiers who could hide troops on the entire battlefield, and Daliangshan was obviously the best choice among them.

Bai Qi asked why Zhao Kuo chose to hide troops in Daliang Mountain from the beginning.

"Because I can't beat it." Zhao Kuo continued to reply briefly: "It is still difficult for General Lian Po to lead his troops to defend the king's house, so I will come? Not to mention that the opponent is very likely to be replaced by your brother. What's worse is that I still have to attack, and I can't beat it."

It stands to reason that since you know that you can't beat it? Shouldn't we devote more troops to find a way to win? How could they still draw nearly a quarter of their combat power to hide? Isn't that even more unbeatable?

Contradictory?

No, Bai Qi obviously understood what Zhao Kuo said.

Because it can't be defeated, even if the 100,000 troops can't be defeated, then it's better to hide a part of the troops, and it is better to die less than the whole army to be wiped out.

But this brings up another question: since he knows that he can't fight, why does Zhao Kuo still fight?

It's just that Bai Qi didn't ask this question. Because Bai Qi already knows the answer - there is no way, if you don't come, you can't do it. And among them, there is a lot of credit to Bai Qi himself and the Qin State.

If it weren't for the secret agents and spies of the Qin State who spread the so-called "Qin Fear, Ma Fuzi" remarks day and night, it would not have aroused the surging public opinion in Handan City of Zhao State, and even the court of Zhao State would not have thought of letting Zhao Kuo take this thunder at all.

It can be said that the Zhao State at that time, from the king of Zhao to the people of Limin, whether it was out of the idea of wanting Zhao Kuo to top the thunder, or really optimistic about Zhao Kuo's ability, almost all of them wanted Zhao Kuo to come out of the mountain and turn the tide. Even to the point that Ma Fujun Zhao Hao's old department, Xu Li came to persuade him.

In this context, even if Zhao Kuo knew that he would definitely lose, what choice could he have?

In the waves of history, Zhao Kuo on that day was obviously just an inconspicuous piece of sand, and if he refused to go ashore, he would be stepped into the bottom of the riverbed and never turned over.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Zhao Kuo, and just wanted to raise the wine to pay tribute to Zhao Kuo, but suddenly thought that he was the victim! If it weren't for Zhao Kuo's intervention, how would he be here to "admire the moon"?

"Whoever harms others will eventually harm himself." Bai Qi couldn't help laughing at himself.

Zhao Kuo also raised the wine jue in time, touched the wine jue that Bai Qi stopped in the air slightly, and said, "You and I are both people in this rolling red dust, and we are not

It is a common thing to do yourself, and all you can do is to be worthy of your heart."

As he spoke, he raised his neck, and another piece of rice wine fell into his stomach.

Xu Li outside the grass shed was anxious in his eyes, others didn't know that Xu Li knew very well, Zhao Kuo's wound had just burst in the morning, how could he enter so much wine now? Of course, seeing the two generals talking happily, Xu Li didn't dare to step forward to dissuade him no matter how worried he was.

Listening to Zhao Kuo's philosophical words, Bai Qi couldn't believe that such thorough words actually came from the mouth of the young man in front of him.

Open-minded, optimistic, young, transparent......

Almost all beautiful nouns can be crowned on Zhao Kuo's head, but it's a pity that this person can't help Zhao or Qin!

Thinking of this, Bai Qi also leaned his neck and drank all the juezhong rice wine.

"Why did Wei agree to go to war?" Bai Qi, who put down the wine lord, continued to ask, "With the cowardice of the King of Wei, especially after the Battle of Yique, how dare you be the enemy of my Great Qin again?"

Zhao Kuo nodded when he heard this, and said, "King Wei naturally doesn't dare. But Xinlingjun dares! And Xinlingjun knows very well that the land of the party must not fall into the hands of the Qin army, otherwise not only will Zhao Guo be absolutely passive, but the Liang of the Wei capital will have to follow in the footsteps of Anyi. Coupled with a little bit of interest temptation, I am not afraid that Xinlingjun will not be moved. And as long as Xinlingjun is tempted, with his ability, he can always find a way to send troops."

"A little temptation?" Bai Qi asked.

"River Interior." Zhao Kuo also replied very dryly: "I promise to take Hanoi for Wei after occupying Shangdang."

"And now?" Bai Qi was a little surprised, first, he was surprised by Zhao Kuo's generosity, a county land, it was just a little temptation? The second is to be surprised that Zhao Kuo's heart is big, and he dares to agree to take land for other countries without the king's order.

"Naturally, I don't count it now. The Wei army has already retreated, so naturally they are not eligible to enjoy the fruits of victory." Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "How can you fight for the territory that you have obtained by disobeying the king's orders?"

"Aren't you afraid that the world will be criticized by everyone?" Bai Qi also smiled, although he didn't spare Zhao Kuo on his lips, he was quite appreciative in his heart. Such a greedy and brazen person is a bit similar to the old Qin people.

"In the first place, it was a conspiracy, and there was no evidence to prove it. Second, Wei withdrew too quickly, and if he could hold out longer, this battle would not have dragged on to this point." Zhao Kuo said indifferently: "Doing great things and sparing your life, based on this alone, the Wei State is not qualified to ask for any more benefits."
