Chapter 392: Attacking Zhao in the Yan Palace

"Oh? That's really good news!" King Yan unconsciously muttered, "How many garrisons are there in Shangdang and Hanoi now?"

"There are no less than a hundred thousand men for my king." Chestnut immediately said, "And after three years of fighting, although the Zhao army has won, it has also become a tired army."

"In this way, the available strength of the Zhao army now is only thirty or forty thousand? Still tired?" There was already a hint of excitement in King Yan's tone.

Changguo Junle and Jiangqu glanced at each other, and the worry in their eyes was already beyond words.

Immediately, Jiang Qubian went out to persuade him again: "Even if the 100,000 troops of Zhao State are distributed in Shangdang and Hanoi, it is only a matter of ten days to draw troops from Shangdang and Hanoi. Prime Minister, even if everything goes smoothly, my Yan army has only just arrived at the city of Handan.

As for the fatigue of the Zhao army, the Battle of Changping has been over for a long time, and the army has already been repaired, so there is no such thing as fatigue."

"The doctor's words are false!" General Qing Qin, who had not spoken and was standing quietly beside the Prime Minister of State, finally spoke.

After taking the lead, Qing Qin bowed slightly to King Yan, and then continued, "My King Rongyu: If Zhao State is still guarding the Danshui defense line, or even just crossing Danshui, maybe in ten days, he can draw troops back. But what is the situation now, Shangdang and Hanoi have all fallen into the hands of Zhao State, how can the defense line of the Zhao army stick to the gift of Danshui?"

Turning around slightly, he looked at Jiang Qu, who had just spoken, and said, "At this time, the deployment of the Shangdang Zhao Army has already advanced to the line from Duanshi to Yishi, and is widely spread at the junction between Hedong and Shangdang. And this road around the lofty mountains and mountains in Shangdang County alone is not something that can be completed in ten days."

This is obviously a dimensionality reduction blow from Qing Qin, who is a general, to the general who is a civil servant who does not talk about martial virtues! The march route involving so many place names is powerless for Jiangqu to refute at all.

But fortunately, there is this Qing Qin general next to the prime minister's chestnut belly, and there is also Changguo Junle here in Jiangqu! Although Le Jian's ability is worse than that of his father Le Yi, compared to this Qing Qin general, it is not false at all.

"It's okay if you stand well, you have to get an axe from the class, isn't this looking for death!" While thinking, Rakuma took over from the mouth of the ditch that was about to be speechless.

"Ten days is not enough, but one month is enough!?" Changguo Junle immediately came out of class and asked with some disdain, "If one month is not enough, two months is enough?" General Qing Qin, don't you tell me that with General Lianpo's ability, he won't be able to gather a team to rush back to Handan in two months? You know, it was only a month and a half for the Qin army to set off from Hangu and arrive in Shangdang County?"

When General Qing Qin heard this, he was silent and refused to answer. Obviously, he already knew what Leji was going to say. If you don't want to lose face, you can only be silent and not answer.

Le Jian didn't care so much, snorted lightly, and said, "If General Qing Qin is sure to break through the high and deep Handan City within two months, he will raise his hands and feet in favor of sending troops. General Qing Qin, do you dare to establish this military order?"

After saying a few words, he directly forced General Qing Qin, who was still aggressive just now, into a corner.

Stand up, that's Handan!

The capital of Zhao State is located, not to mention the high and deep city, not to mention that there are at least tens of thousands of elites in Handan City of Zhao State now, that is the soldiers who have just come down from the Changping battlefield, and the combat power can compete with the elite army of the Qin army!

Even if there is no such army, with the hundreds of thousands of people in Handan City alone, as long as King Zhao orders to blindly defend it, and wants to rely on the city to hold on for a few months, there is no problem.

Thinking that the Wei army relied on the warriors back then, how mighty it was! It's not like a hard attack for several months can't break through this Handan City, and in the end, Shengsheng was transferred back by Sun Bin with the method of "besieging Wei to save Zhao", and he hated in Maling Road.

If you make a military order, if you really don't win the battle, or if you don't break it within two months, even if you don't get involved in military law, I'm afraid it will be difficult to lead troops in this life......

However, if you don't stand, isn't this an admission of your own incompetence? Being so humiliated by the generals of the younger generations, since

Where is your own prestige?

For a while, Qing Qin was in a dilemma.

Fortunately, the Minister of State on the side seemed to understand Qing Qin's embarrassment, and ran out again at the moment.

He bowed slightly and said, "The king, Chang Guojun don't know anything! Today's Zhao State not only lacks troops, but also has many generals who can fight: Zhao Kuo, who is the most difficult to fight, took the initiative to go to Daibei, Lian Po was stationed in Shangdang, Tiandan was stationed in Tun Hanoi, and only Pang Xuan and other generals were left in Handan, which was a godsend! My king must not fail him."

"Moreover, now that Zhao Guode is on the party and Hanoi, this year may still be a burden to him. However, once the Zhao State completes its rectification and completely digests its vast land, our Yan Army will no longer be the opponent of the Zhao Army." The prime minister of the country said that he was excited, and immediately bowed to King Yan and said, "If you don't take it, you will be blamed!" I, the king, should think deeply."

When King Yan heard this, he felt that what the minister said seemed to make sense, so he nodded unconsciously,

The music room on the side still didn't care, and slowly continued: "Whether it's a famous general or an army. I still say the same thing, but if the prime minister can break through Handan within two months, the general will definitely agree to the request of the prime minister. If the prime minister is unable to break through Handan, it is meaningless whether General Zhao and the main army are in Handan."

Obviously, Lejian was sure that the other party did not dare to make a military order.

The prime minister glanced at Qing Qin on the side, obviously, but whenever Qing Qin gave a positive look, the chestnut dared to be more happy and rigid to the end. It's a pity that Qing Qin still didn't dare to make this decision after all.

Looking at Qing Qin, who was dodging in his eyes, the prime minister knew that it was impossible to persuade him head-on. But it is impossible to give up, once you can persuade King Yan to send troops, the person who leads the troops must be on your side, and the grain and grass in the rear must also be yourself. With such a power to the sky, how can you give it up lightly?

Since the front can't be passed, let's change the way and come from the back!

"My king: The so-called war is the joint effect of the officers and soldiers of the two armies, and even the subjects of the two countries, and it is not the general who can decide it; On the battlefield, which is changing rapidly, how can there be a war that is 100% certain? If the general must make a military order before he can lead his troops into battle, then I am afraid that no general will dare to lead his troops again." Chestnut first refuted the idea of a military order for Rakuma.

King Yan nodded silently again.

Li Yu then continued: "The reason why Weichen insisted that the king send troops to Zhao is based on one point, there is between Yan and Zhao, there must be a battle, sooner or later."

"Oh?" King Yan was obviously a little surprised by Chestnut's judgment: "How can the Prime Minister say this?"

"My king imagines that now the situation of Zhao Guo, since he has won the victory of Changping, he is bound to join the end of the struggle for hegemony. How to compete for supremacy? It's nothing more than expanding the territory." Chestnut looked at the music room on the side, and continued with a smile, "Does Chang Guojun think so?"

"Of course." Although Rakuma knew that Chestnut must have bad intentions, he still answered his question.

"Since you want to expand your territory, what does Chang Guojun think, where should Zhao Jun go?" Chestnut continued to ask.

When Le Jian heard this, he knew that something was wrong, but in an instant, he already had a plan in his heart, and immediately replied following the chestnut's thoughts: "Go north, Yan Kingdom."

"Oh? Why my Yan Kingdom? The general may have solved my king's doubts?" The chestnut belly was obviously already in the chest, and then continued to make things difficult.

Lejian also cooperated, and immediately opened his mouth to speak.

"The west of Zhao is the state of Qin, although Changping wins, there is no tendency to crush, and Qin's national strength is strong, in the absence of absolute superiority, Zhao will not want to fight with Qin again;

The south of Zhao State, only Han and Wei belong to the Three Jin Dynasty, and because of the aid of Wei State, the attack is unjust, and Han, Wei, and the Central Plains are also, attacking it is to lock the road to the east of Qin, and Qin will block it;

The east of Zhao is the country of Qi, although after the five kingdoms were destroyed, the situation is no longer what it used to be, but in the end, it was a country that was established side by side with the Qin state, and Zhao did not dare to take it lightly;

Only those who fight, too, in the north! One is the grassland Hu people, and the other is my Yan country.

Now Zhao Kuo is going north, even to solve the trouble of the Hu people in the grassland, but the grassland of the Hu people has no power to expand the land, and will eventually come to my Yan country."

I have to say that Lejian obviously has the true inheritance of Le Yi,

Even the chestnut belly who had been preparing for a long time couldn't find fault with it, and even if he said it himself, he couldn't say it so clearly and thoroughly.

It's just a few words from the music room, but it made the generals on the side dumbfounded-where is the music room?

"Thank you, Chang Guojun!" Chestnut belly bowed slightly to the music room.

Then he looked at King Yan and continued, "According to the King of Chang, if Zhao has the heart to fight for hegemony, the only choice for Zhao is to attack my Yan Kingdom, seize the land of my Yan Kingdom and enrich himself."

Chestnut paused slightly, looked at the ministers, and concluded: "Therefore, Yan Zhao must have a battle, either I attack Zhao, or Zhao will attack me!" In this case, why not introduce the flames of war into the territory of Zhao State and ensure the safety of my Yan Land? That's one of them."

"Second, as I said before, now is the weakest time for the Zhao State, or the best time for our army to attack Zhao. Since there must be a battle between Yan and Zhao, why not attack Zhao when it is weak, even if it cannot be destroyed, at least it can be ordered to cede land and sue for peace, so as to weaken Zhao State. Zhao Guo is weak, then Yan Guoan!"

"The Minister of State is reasonable!" Yan Wangxi nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing that King Yan was about to agree to the proposal of the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, the doctor on the side saw the ditch in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but this reason was provided by his allies to the other party, and he really didn't know how to break it.

Fortunately, Lejian had already expected this, and he had already thought of countermeasures from the moment he analyzed Zhao Guo's strategy.

It was only at this most critical time that Lejian decisively interjected to interrupt King Yan's imagination.

"Slow!"
