Chapter 713 The Central Plains is in chaos

"The State of Chu, as the only country that does not border with my Zhao State, and at the same time has a deep blood feud with the State of Qin, the State of Chu must not be allowed to fall to the State of Qin." Zhao Kuo emphasized again.

"Yes." Pingyuan Jun also immediately nodded and agreed, "On the Chu side, Weichen will let Yu Qing go in person and try his best to persuade the Chu State to send troops to help me."

"Okay." Zhao Kuo nodded, and then continued: "Once the Qin army begins to advance towards our army, the Chu army can attack at any time, and the time to send troops should be sooner rather than later."

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

"Qi, Wei." Zhao Kuo frowned slightly, and then said, "The Wei State has Xinling Jun, and it is very likely that he has seen the trend of Zhao being strong and Qin is weak, so it is very likely that the Wei State has fallen to the Qin State.

Therefore, for the Wei State, don't get your hopes up. The focus should not be on the King of Wei and Xinlingjun, but on the ordinary ministers, such as Long Yangjun and others, and it is more important to understand the attitude of Wei and the direction in which it may send troops."

"Yes." Pingyuanjun continued to promise, "The minister asks the treasury of the founding mansion to select some precious and delicacies for the occasional needs."

"Yes." Zhao Kuo agreed without hesitation, "As long as you can figure out the movements of the Wei State, it will be okay to empty the lonely."

"Thank you, my king." Pingyuanjun immediately bowed his hand

"Sun Gu." Zhao Kuo turned around, but looked at General Yulin Wei Sun Gu, who had retreated to the side after completing the report.

"The end will be." Hearing Zhao Kuo's call, Sun Gu also immediately stood up.

"Arrange for secret agents of the Wei State to closely monitor the movements of the Wei army, especially Xinlingjun. Widow Expectation,

If the Wei army makes a move, the person in command will still be Xinlingjun. If you grasp the movements of Xinling Jun, you can almost grasp the timing of the Wei army's troops." Zhao Kuo then instructed, "Cooperate with the envoy sent by Pingyuan Jun to find out the details of the Wei army for me."

"Yes, the last will understand." Sun Gu also immediately agreed.

"As for the last Qi Kingdom." Zhao Kuo then looked at the corner of the map, and then said, "It is enough to let them stand still."

"Yes, Wechen understands." Plains-kun promised again.

Looking at the map in front of him, Zhao Kuo carefully combed it again, from the internal deployment of troops, to the external preparations, from the strength of troops to grain and grass to diplomacy, it seems that there is nothing missing.

The rest can only be handed over to the soldiers on the battlefield.

"The weight of this battle is no longer necessary." Turning around, Zhao Kuo immediately looked at everyone and said quite seriously, "Although this united battle came a little unexpectedly, since it is here, we can only face it. The deeds of the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors are all in this battle, please leave it to you!"

"Yes!"

When the words fell, everyone present immediately responded in unison.

Soon, with Zhao Kuo's order issued, Zhao Guo's machine also ran rapidly.

In order to grab time, Zhao Guo's actions did not mean to hide in the slightest, and he made it clear that he was telling Qin Guo, I knew you were going to beat me.

There was no suspense, and the Black Ice Platform of the Qin State reported the situation of the Zhao State to Xianyang as soon as possible.

And the Qin State, who got the news, immediately tore off all the disguises and launched with all his might.

The huge movements of Qin and Zhao naturally spread to all other countries, and for a while,

The entire Central Plains was in a state of panic.

Everyone understands that this will be another battle like the Battle of Changping.

It's just that the Battle of Changping is at best a wrestle between the three kingdoms, but this war in front of him is about to sweep the entire Central Plains with the naked eye.

Everyone understands that they have to take sides. But it is obvious that what they want is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so that Zhao and Qin will both lose and lose.

I just want to think like this, but I can't do it.

Just like in the workplace, those who don't stand in line are often the first to be eliminated. (Unless the Centrist is strong enough.) )

There is no way, even if it is on the edge, the country of Qi is still there

Emissaries were sent to Qin and Zhao.

The purpose is self-evident - to explore the reality of the two countries.

It's very simple, since you want to stand in line, you have to stand on the side that can win.

It's a pity, by coincidence, before the envoys of Qi arrived at the capitals of Zhao and Qin, the envoys of Qin and Zhao arrived in Linzi City of Qi almost at the same time.

Coincidentally, whether it was Qin or Zhao, the requirements for Qi were almost identical: neutrality.

Yes, neither Qin nor Zhao wanted to see the banner of Qi on the battlefield.

There is no way, the army of Qi is too difficult to control. It's not just the wrestling between the king of Qi and his courtiers that will make the attitude of the army change easily.

What's more important is that this Qi army has been sparse for a long time, and in the face of such a fierce battle as Qin Zhao, it is really not enough to see.

In case the overall collapse is caused by the rout of the Qi army, it will really outweigh the losses.

If you are not afraid that your opponent is too strong, you are afraid that your teammates are too vegetable, obviously Qin and Zhao are very clear.

also

Because of the unexpected unification of Qin and Zhao's requests, Qi did not need any choice, and started doing business with the two countries with peace of mind.

In war, what is lacking is food and grass!

Qi Guo also took advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money.

It's just that this little money, whether it is Qin State or Zhao State, is not in the eyes of it at all. It's very simple, only if you can defeat the opponent, how can Qi take it, you have to return it, and return it exponentially.

At the same time, the envoy of Zhao State also rushed to Shouchun, the current capital of Chu State, Pegasus.

As one of the auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, Yu Qing came to Chu in person, which can be said to have given the king of Chu enough face. And the chips that Yu Qing brought to the King of Chu are not heavy.

As long as the state of Chu is willing to send troops, no matter how many, the Zhao army will restore the capital of Chu after the war;

And if the state of Chu can contain more than 200,000 soldiers and horses of the Qin army for the Zhao army, then the Zhao army will recover the land of Yan and Ying for the state of Chu after the war.

These two places, one is the former national capital and the other is the former national capital, and it is obvious that they are all the lands that the people of Chu dream of recapturing.

Zhao Kuo can be said to have made a bloody investment.

You must know that from Zhao Kuo's judgment, the most likely area for the battle of Zhao Qin is Yingchuan County.

In other words, even if the Zhao army wins, what it can get is the Chen County occupied by the Qin State now, and as long as the Chu State sends troops, the Zhao State will directly cede this land to the Chu State.

Not to mention the land of Yanying, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

For the state of Chu, this is definitely an excellent opportunity to restore the country. After recapturing the land of Chen County and Yan Ying, the state of Chu will unsurprisingly become a country with a surge in national power, and even become

The third pole of the Warring States is not impossible.

Of course, this transaction is also a sure profit for Zhao Guo.

In such a large-scale battle, the battle for the gains and losses of one city and one place is somewhat inferior.

Qin Zhao poured the troops of the whole country into battle, this is bound to be a battle that will never stop, and as long as the main force of the other party can be eliminated, at least within ten years, the winning side will be in an absolute advantage.

Although two pieces of anointed land were temporarily given to the State of Chu, as long as the State of Zhao was willing, it could go west at any time and approach Hangu.

It should be said that the King of Chu was ruthlessly moved in the face of the conditions put forward by Zhao Guo.

But the problem is that today's Chu State has more than enough heart but not enough strength.

In other words, the current state of Chu has not yet come out of the shadow of the state of Qin.

In the battle of Chendu two years ago and the subsequent sneak attack, the state of Chu lost too badly. The loss of troops is still secondary, and more importantly, the whole state of Chu has already suffered from serious Qinphobia.

What is the concept of 200,000 Qin troops?

The people of Chu even felt that these 200,000 troops could directly bulldoze the Shouchun defense line that they had built with great difficulty.

Naturally, in such a state of mind, it was simply impossible for the state of Chu to undertake such a big military task.

Even, even if it is Yu Qing's flying pigeon biography

Zhao Kuo lowered the requirement to contain the 200,000 Qin army to 180,000, or even 150,000 or 120,000, and the king of Chu refused to let go.

120,000, of course, is not Zhao Kuo's limit, if possible, even if it is to contain 10,000 more, it will only be good for the battle on the front line.

It's just that this number is not too difficult for Chu Jun.

After all, Zhao Kuo, who has been in the ordnance business with Chu State, dang

However, he also understands the combat strength of the Chu State.

He didn't even agree to contain the 120,000 army, and it was pointless to continue to lower his requirements, and it would even make the Chu State breed ideas that he shouldn't have.

The attitude of the Chu State has been very clear, it is okay to send troops, but it is not possible to really fight the Qin army.

Although he was a little disappointed in the attitude of the Chu State, the fact that the Chu State was able to send troops to approach the Chen capital would undoubtedly pull away part of the Qin army's energy. This is already good news for Zhao Jun and Zhao Kuo.

There was no way, the envoys in Daliang, the capital of Wei, and the secret agent of Yulinwei both sent back the news: Wei is suspected to have fallen to Qin.

The reason is very simple, the State of Wei, to be exact, the King of Wei is too calm.

It was so calm that it seemed that King Wei had known that this epic battle was about to start.

In fact, the King of Wei did know about the movements of the Qin army earlier than Zhao Kuo, and naturally he had already expected the arrival of the envoys of the Zhao State.

It can be said that the reception of the envoys of the State of Wei to the State of Zhao was very powerful, polite and courteous.

It was precisely because of this orderly arrangement that the envoy was suspicious.

And the envoys were even more sure that the reason why Wei had defected was the disappearance of Xinling Jun.

Yes, as the king of Xinling, who is now above 10,000 people under one person in Wei, he was not in Daliang City, and he didn't hurry back until the next day when the king of Wei feasted the envoys of Zhao State. After the banquet, Xin Lingjun disguised himself as a Pegasus and ran out of Daliang City.

Obviously, Xin Lingjun was here to show his face to the envoy of Zhao at the banquet.

Fortunately, all this was seen by Zhao Guoyu Lin Wei's secret agents who were hiding in the dark, but unfortunately, after Xinlingjun left the city, he quickly relied on his speed

Ma threw off Zhao's spies.

Therefore, although Zhao had already determined Wei's defection, he didn't know when Wei would attack, let alone how many troops Wei had prepared for this defection.

The unknown is always the most terrifying.

An urgent order was sent by Pegasus to Tiandan in Dongjun and Lianpo in Yingchuan County......
