"My king's will?" Pingyuanjun seemed to understand Zhao Kuo's meaning somewhat, but he was still a little unsure.

"He who does not seek eternity is not enough for a time; Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain." Zhao Kuo was muttering on the side.

"Is my king trying to use this crisis as a reason for the next war?" When Pingyuan Jun heard this, he understood Zhao Kuo's thoughts.

"Yes, of course." Zhao Kuo nodded and continued, "However, for now, we still have to solve the problem of food first."

"Although all the nations will send messengers, we will still divide our priorities." Plains Jun Massa was so sad that he replied, "Wei State, I'll go on a trip in person, and as for Qi State, let Yu Qing go."

Obviously, in Pingyuanjun's thoughts, only Wei and Qi were the only ones who could solve Zhao's urgent needs. From this point of view, Pingyuan-kun's arrangement is undoubtedly correct and appropriate.

As the first auxiliary minister of Zhao State, he went to Wei State to ask for help, which can be said to have given Wei State enough face, plus the help he gave Xinling Jun when he changed land, Pingyuan Jun was very sure of the food help he asked from Wei State.

It's a big deal, I just paid the tribute of the past ten years in advance at that time.

As for the Qi State, it has always been more important than righteousness, and it should not be a big problem to let Yu Qing, who is in charge of diplomatic work, bring enough gold, silk and jade.

As long as Wei and Qi can lend a helping hand, Zhao will make a smooth transition to the autumn harvest season, and of course there will be no big problem.

It's just that when Zhao Kuo heard this, he shook his head without hesitation.

"Even if the Wei State promises to give food, it will definitely open its mouth, and there is no need for Pingyuan Jun to Daliang City." Zhao Kuo immediately rejected Pingyuan Jun's plan.

"But?" Pingyuanjun frowned and objected.

Of course, he knew that he would almost definitely be treated slowly this time, after all, now that Zhao Guo was asking for Wei, with the temperament of the King of Wei, he would inevitably take it seriously.

But as long as he can get food for Zhao Guo and let Zhao Guo survive this catastrophe, in the future, the powerful Zhao State will naturally let him get back this face.

The most important thing is that without the support of Wei, the grain and grass of Qi will become the only solution.

Not to mention whether the food of Qi Country is enough for Zhao State, even if it is enough, such a amount, I am afraid that the amount of money will be more than doubled.

That's obviously not a good idea!

It's no wonder that Pingyuan-kun was about to oppose it almost immediately.

It's just that Zhao Kuo naturally has his reasons for doing this, and then he waved his hand slightly to interrupt Pingyuanjun's words and said, "Pingyuanjun, you have a misunderstanding."

"It's not that you have to collect enough of the grass right away." Zhao Kuo continued: "Let's come 100,000 quintals first, deal with it for a few days, and tomorrow we will come again with 20,000 quintals, and we can hold on for a few days. In other words, the state of Chu should not be excluded from your concerns."

"The king's intention is to first go to other countries to seek grain to survive the long winter, and then borrow grain from the state of Chu to survive the famine in spring and summer?" Plains-kun quickly realized his omission and said, "This is indeed a good idea. There is a winter, and it will be enough for the Chu State to mobilize grain and grass and transport it to our country."

"Exactly." Zhao Kuo continued to nod and said, "On the contrary, this Wei State has always been a wolf's ambition, trying to become bigger. Although Zhao Wei is now an ally for the time being, we can't give them any opportunity to take advantage of it."

"It's enough to send an ordinary envoy to the Wei State, if the Wei State can understand the general situation and send grain and straw with affection and righteousness, it is naturally the best, if the Wei State pushes the buck, or the lion opens his mouth, it doesn't hurt. When the Qin army comes to attack next year, the King of Wei will regret his choice." Zhao Kuo said viciously.

"Asking for food, our country is bound to give up some interests, and these benefits I would rather give to the state of Qi and Chu than to the state of Wei." Zhao Kuo concluded.

"Then I will understand the king's will." Pingyuan Jun immediately nodded and agreed: "However, your majesty, the Qi country is very profitable, and after the defeat of the five kingdoms, it has lost the possibility of fighting for hegemony, and our army does not care much about it, but the land of Chu is more than a thousand miles, even if it loses the land of Yan Ying, it is still a big country, and the king is so jealous."

The Wei State is a bit of a favoritism, but it is a bit of a favoritism to the Chu State."

"Not really." Zhao Kuo shook his head and said, "Although the Chu State is large, its feudal system is still prevalent. Even the mobilization of millions of quintals of grain is so troublesome, want to grow? It is almost impossible not to change its backward system. And if they want to change the law again, whether it is Qin or Zhao, they will not give Chu State a chance to reshuffle and change the law."

"As for the Wei State, it is the only country among the Seven Kingdoms that has basically completed the reform of the law, except for Zhao and Qin. Such a country, that is, because of the mistakes in decision-making, has given Qin country space for development is time." Zhao Kuo continued: "Now, I have just exchanged the land of Dongjun with it, although our army has an excellent geographical advantage, but at the same time, Wei has also benefited a lot from it, if we give Wei more benefits, in the coming year, Wei will not be able to get along."

"My king is right." Pingyuanjun immediately echoed the way.

"The envoys of Qi and Chu must be selected well, there is only one bottom line, that is, if you don't move my land and population, you can agree to other conditions." Zhao Kuo then commanded.

"Yes, Wechen understands." Pingyuan-kun immediately agreed.

"In addition, those who are going to the Qin State should leave later, and it is best to wait for the food of the Qi State to arrive before going. First, to avoid Qin's pressure on Qi and cause trouble on Qi's side, and second, to pretend that our country is really helpless, so that Qin can relax its vigilance. There may be unexpected results in the coming year." Zhao Kuo continued to command.

"In addition, the envoy sent to the Yan Kingdom, Weichen is ready to choose the one who is more arrogant." Pingyuanjun also lost no time in smiling and suggesting, "It's best to provoke King Yan's anger, if you can get back injured, it will be a great achievement."

"The words of the Plains King are deeply in the hearts of widows." Zhao Kuo finally nodded with satisfaction when he heard this.

In this way, such a tricky matter as the snow disaster, in the words of Zhao Kuo and Pingyuan Jun, gradually became controllable.

Even, Zhao Guo has to take advantage of this snow disaster to make an article.

Of course, this is all based on Zhao's strong national strength. Among them, there is no lack of key scientific knowledge brought by Zhao Kuo, a traverser.

Quite simply, the most difficult thing about a snow disaster is never food, but heating.

Historically, far more people have froze to death than starved to death during snowstorms.

The reason is very simple, if you want to starve to death, it is not so easy, as long as there is saliva, people can hold on for seven days, during which it is not impossible to eat even one or two meals, one or two steamed buns, and last for ten days and half a month.

On the contrary, this god is going to freeze to death, and that is a matter of one night.

Fortunately, because of Zhao Kuo's arrival, the rich coal resources under Shangdang County have long been applied in the arsenal.

As early as when the climate was slightly abnormal, a large amount of coal had already begun to be shipped to Jiuyuan County. Just when cow dung and other heating materials were exhausted, the coal in Shangdang County had already arrived.

In the follow-up, in order to ensure the supply of coal in Jiuyuan County, even the Shangdang Arsenal was stopped.

It is precisely because of this coal that this snowstorm has turned into a relatively simple food crisis.

And with the national strength of Zhao today, there is actually a faster and more efficient way to solve the problem - plunder!

Yes, with the hundreds of thousands of armor of the Zhao army, whether it is the northern expedition to the Yan country or the southern expedition to the country of Korea, it is reasonable, advantageous and modest, and the grasp is also quite large, and even if you dislike the national strength of these two countries is not enough to make up for the deficit, it is also a good choice to conquer the Qi country in the east.

It's just that raising troops in the winter will inevitably take certain risks.

Especially now, the Qin State has basically completed the mobilization of troops, and hundreds of thousands of troops have been deployed in Hedong, and they can use Yiyang City as a springboard to enter the land of Zhou Wangji at any time.

That is, looking at the winter and the face of the tens of thousands of Zhao troops in Heqiao City and Yicheng, King Qin temporarily suppressed his restless heart.

Zhao Kuo could be sure that once he made a move, Qin Guo would definitely jump out without hesitation.

In this way, the battle that was originally won was secure

, with the participation of the Qin State, it also has to be marked with a question mark.

If this had been five years ago, Zhao Kuo would have started this battle without hesitation. The reason is very simple, Zhao Guo is already in a weak position, and in the face of such a natural disaster, following the steps will only make the gap between Zhao and Qin widen.

But now the situation is different, after adding Jiuyuan County and Huaisi County, the actual territory of Zhao State has surpassed that of Qin State, and the population has also surpassed Qin State after obtaining the land of Zhou Wangji and the grassland Hu people.

Coupled with the advantages of the system, it can be said that if the development continues, the gap between Zhao and Qin will widen, but the country above is Zhao.

Faced with such a situation, the last thing Zhao Guo needs is to take risks.

This is like the "sailing effect", the leading sailor never needs to actively adjust the sails, as long as he follows the sails of the opponent behind him and maintains his advantage, then the victory must be his own.

After discussing the countermeasures, Pingyuanjun immediately resigned from the personnel who went to arrange the envoy.

Because the object and strategy of the envoy have changed greatly, and the time of the envoy is as fast as possible, I can't help but speed up the pace of Pingara-kun's rush in the direction of the cabinet.

After Pingyuanjun left, Zhao Kuo called Zhao Ping of the dark guard and Sun Gu of Yulinwei again.

Without him, the disaster situation in various places still needs to be investigated, and of course, this is also an excellent opportunity for the Dark Guard to quickly expand to all parts of the Zhao Kingdom.

Of course, on the bright side, the dark guard will still work in the name of Yu Linwei.

When the dark guard can really establish a perfect intelligence system in the entire Zhao country, it will finally be able to meet everyone under its own name.

As for Yulin Weisungu's mission......
