"Pass my order." Zhao Kuo stood up.

"Yes." The four people present bowed down in unison to receive the order.

"One of the orders, the whole territory of Zhao State has entered a wartime state, all cities are under military control, and the number of young and strong people in various places is counted, including the healthy servants of various families, and they are ready to form a new army at any time." Zhao Kuo calmly ordered.

Obviously, although Zhao Kuo's order seems to be a military order, it is actually within the scope of government affairs.

Of course, Zhao Kuo has Lin Shangqing and Ping Yuanjun as the endorsement of the two political bigwigs, not to mention such a vague interference in government affairs, even if he wants to directly intervene, it is understandable.

It's just that what everyone doesn't know, such a military management and statistics of young and strong people, Zhao Kuo's purpose is not just to deal with the needs of the battlefield from time to time.

In the face of the Yan army, and even the possible Qin army, Zhao Kuo was confident that he would be able to deal with it with the existing forces at hand. The reason why I want to make this laborious statistics is actually for Zhao Kuo's next policy implementation.

In normal times, it is difficult to count the young and strong, and it is even more impossible to count the healthy servants of other families. Because from a legal point of view, these servants are almost no different from those grains, they are all personal private property, and they will have too many reasons to prevent the inventory.

But what's going on now?

That's to count the troops to avenge the king, don't you let the counts? Don't you want to avenge the king?

There are really few people who can carry a big hat down.

More importantly, military control has been implemented in all localities. If you don't give statistics, the civil officials may give you a good reason, but the military generals will only knock on the door with steel knives, especially in the case of occupying absolute righteousness, the generals' knives will only be sharper.

This plan is not only a conspiracy, because there are not many people who can think of this layer, but also a conspiracy, because even if you think of Zhao Kuo's purpose, it will not help at all. Except for cooperating, everything you do is wrong.

The four people present obviously didn't understand Zhao Kuo's deep meaning, but in the face of the general's military order, the four of them still naturally took the order and said, "Yes." ”

"Order No. 2, Ming Lian is quite the chief general in the south, and Tian Dan is the deputy of Tian Dan, and he commands the Shangdang and Hanoi armies in a unified manner." Zhao Kuo continued to order: "The pawns of Tuntian, which belongs to Hanoi, will immediately turn the people into soldiers, with Xu Li, the commander of Tuntian, as the general, and the same Lian Po and Tianshan will only be dispatched. Once the Qin army or the armies of Han and Wei made the slightest move, they did not need to ask for instructions, and they would return fire. ”

"Yes." When the four of them heard this, they were obviously a little worried, but they still received the order again.

That's right, the four of them were a little worried, after all, the general's strategy can be described as extremely tough. Almost the right to start the war was directly delegated from the center to the local generals Lian Po and Tian Dan.

But fortunately, it is these two old generals, who are old and serious, and if they are other young generals who are eager to make meritorious contributions, they will inevitably have the intention of provoking a war after the fame and fortune of the street.

But what is more important is that the current Zhao State itself has to face the attacks of the Yan army and the Hu people, and the political situation is bound to fall into chaos with the collapse of King Zhao......

It was only out of trust in the general that several people apparently did not raise any objections.

And Zhao Kuo's thoughts are even more concise, although Zhao Guo is a little dangerous at this time, it has never reached the end of the mountain. At the same time, Zhao Guo also reached a watershed position.

Where to go from here even depends on your attitude this time. Whether he still faces the provocations of various countries with a strong attitude, or changes from tough to moderate, whether it is Zhao or other countries, they will be waiting for their answers.

This step cannot be retreated, and retreat is an abyss.

"Order 3, take in all the civil servants who went out with the king, temporarily remove them from their positions, and all the generals who went to war will be demoted by one level and reduced for half a year, and their crimes will be dealt with together after the war." Zhao Kuo continued to order.

That's right, Zhao Kuo's order can be said to be a clear retaliation, especially the people of Lou Chang and Pingyang Jun.

Defeated, Zhao Kuo disposed of all the ministers, but he gently let go of the generals, which seems to be unreasonable, but it is really reasonable.

Everyone knows that almost ninety percent of the responsibility for the defeat lies in those civil ministers, but the right to speak is in the hands of civil ministers, so there has always been only a scene of civil servants suppressing military generals, but there are very few cases of military generals torturing civil ministers.

And Zhao Kuo is to take advantage of this opportunity to completely change Zhao Guowen's state of martial arts and raise the generals to a higher height.

Of course, in order to block the mouths of the people, the generals who participated in the battle were still demoted, but when the battle with the Yan army ended, these soldiers who "made meritorious contributions to the crime" could naturally be reinstated.

In the face of such a punishment, the four of them had nothing to say, and immediately thanked Zhao Kuo on behalf of the soldiers below.

"Order four, order the Handan court, immediately send a mourning messenger to all countries, and solemnly warn all countries that all countries are welcome to participate in the matter of seeking Yan, but if there is anyone who obstructs Zhao to ask for Yan, he will be the enemy." Zhao Kuo continued to order.

"General, do you want to discuss this matter with Lin Shangqing, after all, ......," Chen Xun suggested with some apprehension.

Zhao Kuo didn't care when he heard this, and said: "It's urgent, since Shangqing has this book, so that Ben will have full authority to dispose of it, then no matter foreign and domestic affairs, Ben will be able to decide." ”

Of course Zhao Kuo can make a decision, Lin Shangqing's operation seems to be to let Zhao Kuo lead the army to counterattack, but in fact, why not pave the way for Zhao Kuo?

And Zhao Kuo obviously received Lin Xiangru's heart.

Internal affairs, military, and diplomacy, Zhao Kuo will all be in his pocket, of course, this may be a long process, but now it will obviously be the best opportunity to cut in.

Not only because Zhao Kuo can use the name of the military, but more importantly, a series of ministers headed by Lou Chang and Pingyang Jun were all arrested because of this defeat, which provided the best opportunity for Zhao Kuo to seize power.

Of course, Lou Chang and Pingyangjun will not be restrained, but this is a matter for the future.

"No problem." Zhao Kuo waved his hand and explained slightly: "After the Battle of Changping, the vitality of Zhao State has not recovered, and with this defeat, the morale is damaged, and I am afraid that I will not be able to parry the joint attack of all countries. ”

When the words fell, several people stared at each other with big eyes and puzzled faces: Why did this powerless person still issue such a strong announcement, was it because he was afraid that other countries would not come?

"The more this is the case, the less we can show the slightest weakness." Of course, Zhao Kuo understood their surprise, and then continued: "As long as we are tough enough, Han, Wei and others will not dare to move troops easily, just the Qin State, with General Lian Po in charge, but there is no hindrance." ”

When everyone heard this, they also nodded yes.

Han Zhiguo, since the failure of the law change for the Qin army to repeatedly break the city, it has been completely reduced to the grass on the wall, and now the party is lost again, if there is no perfect certainty, I am afraid it will be difficult to send troops;

As for Wei, Changping was beheaded by the Qin State in the first battle, but he didn't get any benefits, and he probably didn't have a good impression of Qin and Zhao, but after experiencing the Battle of Changping, Wei should also be aware of the gap between himself and Zhao, so he didn't break the alliance, and if he couldn't be sure that he could win, he shouldn't send troops.

As for the State of Chu, it is the sworn enemy of the State of Qin, and it is too late to join Zhao to resist Qin, even if he does not come to the aid of Zhao, he will not help the State of Qin, unless the State of Qin can return the land of Yan Ying to the State of Chu.

The rest of the Qi Kingdom, let alone that. If Zhao wants to fight a neighbor country, even if it is Qin, Qi may be the sixth oldest, but only if it fights Yan, Qi will not send troops to help Yan. There is no way, the five countries are together, and the Yan country is the deepest.

Even if he knew that helping Yan was the best choice, even if he knew that Yan Guo had a cold relationship with him, Qi Guo would not help Yan.

It can be said that Zhao Kuo's grasp of the situation of various countries is still in place.

"Order four, order Lü Buwei to be the middle doctor, responsible for the raising of food, grass and ordnance for the army." Seeing that several people were ordered, Zhao Kuo immediately continued to order.

If the previous order was still stealthily seizing power, then Zhao Kuo's order was tantamount to openly using his work to enrich himself.

When will you need a doctor to raise military food and grass?

And now the army that was still in Daidi just now, why did it suddenly need the middle doctor who was still far away in Handan City to raise military rations?

Obviously, the raising of military rations and grass is fake, and the position of this middle doctor is real.

Lü Buwei, although he has a great reputation among the middle and high-level of the army, and all the generals see that they are all avoiding, but officially, Lü Buwei is still just a businessman.

It was in this operation that Zhao Kuo pulled Lü Buwei to the forefront. At the same time, it is also to make it more convenient for Lu Buwei to move in Handan City, after all, a person with power and no position still has a lot of inconvenience.

On the other hand, this position of middle doctor can be regarded as a reward for Lü Buwei's hard work for several months.

Everyone present obviously knew the position of this Lu Dajun Division in the general's heart, although they felt that something was wrong, but naturally they didn't dare to have any opinions.

So, under Zhao Kuo's orders, almost all of Zhao Kuo's subordinates, from internal affairs to foreign affairs, from military affairs to personnel, were included in Zhao Kuo's bag.

Presumably, this order was passed into the hands of Pingyuan-kun, and Pingyuan-kun should understand his intentions.

It's just that I hope Pingyuanjun can make the right choice, otherwise, Lu Buwei's position may have to be moved in advance.

With a long exhale, Zhao Kuo knew that the chores had been dealt with, and it was time to deal with the most critical issues.

"Order Five." Zhao Kuo's aura was obviously a little different.

"Life, Sun Gu."

"Yes."

"Zhou Qi."

"Yes."

"Zhao Wei."

"Yes."

"Gather the soldiers and horses, lead the army of 30,000, and tonight, go south with the general, slaughter the Yan army, and avenge the world." Zhao Kuo slapped the long case and got up, and the deep voice filled the entire camp.

"Yes." The three of them agreed in unison.

Some people died, but not completely......
