With the capture of the king of Chu and the vast majority of the army of Chu, both in terms of military spirit and military strength, there is no possibility for Chu to continue to fight with the Zhao army.

And in the following days, it was the process of Li Mu taking the seal of the king of Chu to collect the cities of Chu everywhere.

Of course, because of the particularity of the Chu State's feudal system, in the process of acceptance, it is inevitable that there will still be various situations of resistance to co-optation

It's just that these Xu resistance forces seem so insignificant in front of the 200,000 army of Zhao State.

In an autumn time, except for some corners and corners, the entire fertile land of the entire Chu State has actually fallen into the control of the Zhao State.

The historical records say:

"In the winter of 252 BC, Zhao Chu sent more than 200,000 elites to fight outside Shouchun City.

Tired of fighting for ten months, it is difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser.

At that time, the winter fell, the land froze, and the Zhao army sent 5,000 heavy cavalry, stepped into the army, and rushed straight to the Chu army.

The Chu army could not be defeated, and Zhao Zhizhong rode straight into the Chu army.

General Zhao Wei Zhe cut off the Chu army with one sword, and the Chu army was in chaos.

He also captured the kings of Chu and others, and forced the Chu army, nearly 200,000 people.

Since Chu lost its army and lost its king, all parts of the country surrendered.

Before the end of the year, Chu was all Zhao soil.

At this point, the obstacle to Zhao's domination of the world is only Qi and Qin."

And when Li Mu returned to Handan with a large army, the Qin State had not even been able to deal with the rebellion of Yiqu. With the support of Zhao State, although the Yiqu people failed to return to the country, the entire Yiqu grassland has returned to the hands of the Yiqu people.

I have to admit that Wang Di, as the last general of the Qin State, made a great mistake in this war to level the canal.

Without him, Wang Yi wanted to adopt a gentle approach to appease Yiqu, so as to resolve the Yiqu incident peacefully.

The reason is also very simple, the already weak Qin State can no longer withstand the toss. If Yiqu is suppressed by force, even if it wins, its own army will inevitably suffer.

Even if it is the best case, he can completely defeat the Yiqu army, and the loss of the Yiqu army alone is enough for Wang Yi to feel distressed.

Therefore, out of the idea of preserving the strength of the Qin state as much as possible, Wang Yi also adopted a rare policy of Huairou in the land of Yiqu.

If it was in the past, after some pacification, Yiqu would have obediently complied.

But Zhao Guo, who fanned the flames, was behind, especially the addition of the Hu people from Jiuyuan County, which directly made Yiqu's surrender impossible.

Faintly, as the war progressed, the minds of the Yiqu people were no longer even on the body of Fuguo.

Yes, after seeing the life of Jiuyuan County, who is also a grassland person, the Yiqu people are already a little eager to join the Zhao Kingdom.

Therefore, with the continuous support of Zhao Guo and Wang Yi's gentle policy, the Yiqu Rebellion could not be calmed down for a long time.

Seeing that winter was coming, Wang Yi finally realized the failure of his Huai Rou policy.

If we can't end this rebellion before winter, the consumption of the army alone will be astronomical in this winter.

Immediately, Wang Yi also issued an ultimatum to Yiqu, and at the same time began to mobilize troops to prepare to strangle Yiqu's subordinates by force.

If Wang Yi had used such a means earlier, Zhao Guo might not be able to intervene at the first time because of the war against Chu.

But now, the state of Chu has been included in the territory, and Li Mu's army has returned to Handan, so it can be said that the state of Zhao has withdrawn all its fists.

To put it simply, Zhao was ready to send reinforcements in the direction of Yiqu at any time.

It is clear that Wang Yi has actually lost the best time to deal with the Yiqu incident.

And the opportunity to unify the Qin State quietly came to Zhao Kuo's desk.

Obviously, Yiqu is a very good breakthrough point.

Especially when Wang Di's strategy change was passed to Handan Zhao Kuo's desk.

Zhao Kuo knew that it was time to completely solve it

Defeated the Qin State.

Although it is almost winter at this time, there is no time to wait, and the opportunity of Qin's internal turmoil must be seized by Zhao State.

Soon, the Imperial Council was convened again.

Between the circulation of information, there is no need to say much.

There was excitement in everyone's eyes that was hard to hide.

There was no need for Zhao Kuo to persuade him to say anything, several generals had already jumped out to ask for the Qin State, and even several Wenchen also stood up one after another, telling Zhao Kuo that the food and ordnance had already been prepared, which was enough for the army to conquer.

The idea of uniting as one is already beyond words.

Without him, facing the temptation of dominating the world, no one wants to let go of such an opportunity.

Looking at the excited people, although the original plan was that Zhao Kuo would not launch a war of extermination against the Qin State for at least two or three years at night, but now the situation at home and abroad obviously does not allow Zhao Kuo to continue to drag on.

Moreover, if you continue to wait, although Zhao State can have stronger strength, after Qin State recovers Yiqu, Zhao State only has two breakthrough points, and it may not be better than the current situation.

What's more, the army has just returned from victory, its morale is booming, and after more than ten days of repair, its combat strength has also reached its peak again.

It can be said that no matter from which point of view, this time is the best time to fight Qin.

Then, let's fight!

Without the slightest pause or hesitation, Zhao Kuo also stood up excitedly.

"Li Mu." Zhao Kuo began to point.

"The end will be." General Li Mu, who had just returned to Handan, immediately agreed.

"Lead 120,000 cavalry and 30,000 foot soldiers to Yiqu to help in the battle, and be sure to drag the main force of Wang Di's Qin army to the Yiqu grassland." Zhao Kuo immediately ordered, "Zhao Wei's five thousand heavy cavalry, follow your actions."

"Yes." Li Mu immediately received the order.

"Zhou Qi." Zhao Kuo nodded again.

"The end will be." Zhou Qi immediately agreed with a red face.

"Lead an army of 150,000." Zhao Kuo immediately ordered, "Attack Hangu Pass!"

"Yes." Even though he knew that Hangu Pass was not easy to attack, Zhou Qi still did not hesitate to take the order.

It was an honor to be able to participate in this final battle to destroy the country, not to mention that the king also let him fight alone, which made Zhou Qi not excited.

"General Tiandan." Zhao Kuo nodded, and then continued to nod.

"The end will be." Tian Dan, who had white hair and beard, also immediately agreed.

"150,000 troops." Zhao Kuo continued to order: "Go out of the Dasan Pass and enter the Guanzhong, and attack Xianyang directly."

"Yes." Tian Dan also immediately agreed.

"If the Qin army mobilizes troops to attack, it will be broken head-on." Zhao Kuo continued to instruct: "If the Qin army sticks to Xianyang and waits for reinforcements, it will be trapped, and then divide the troops to capture Hangu, and together with the army of Hangu, sweep the troops of the king of Yiqu, and finally attack Xianyang."

Hearing this, Li Mu, Zhou Qi and Tian Dan also agreed in unison, "Yes."

Obviously, judging from Zhao Kuo's arrangement, although the three generals have 150,000 troops in their hands, the focus is different.

Li Mu's 150,000 troops, mostly cavalry, plus Zhao Wei's heavy cavalry, can be said to be the strongest of the three armies.

And the enemy they had to face was also the strongest Wang Yu's army, with a force of 150,000 troops.

However, even if you don't count the help of the Yiqu people, Li Mu's 150,000 army against Wang Yu is not worth it at all.

Zhao Kuo just played a pair of Hu against Wang Di, and used his strongest Li Mu and cavalry to deal with the strongest Wang Di of Qin. Even Li Mu didn't need to win much, as long as he could hold Wang Ji back, it would be a victory.

Of course, Li Mu can be the winner and loser, but even if he can't tell the winner for a while, it doesn't matter, because Zhao Kuo has a second winner - Tian Dan.

Yes, Zhou Qi's 150,000 army is still contained.

The 150,000 troops of Tiandan, who went straight to the pass from Dasanguan, were Zhao Kuo's double insurance.

The reason why such an important task was entrusted to Tian Dan was obviously considered by Zhao Kuo.

Rich experience is one thing, but if it is just that, Zhao Kuo can completely switch the tasks of Tian Dan and Li Mu. Let Tian Dan contain Wang Di, and leave the task of attacking Xianyang to Li Mu.

It's just that Li Mu has done enough credit over the years, and more importantly, Zhao Kuo needs this credit for destroying Qin to fall into the hands of a general from another country.

Without him, on the eve of Zhao dominating the world, Zhao Kuo must take precautions.

Above the court of Zhao State, there can only be a figure of "Zhao people", but there can be no figure of "Zhao people".

More is not good, less is even worse.

If all the Zhao people are from Zhao Di, it will inevitably hinder the development of Zhao State, and if it is less, it will chill the hearts of the old Zhao people, and civil strife is almost inevitable.

And in order to achieve such a much-thought-out and unbearable request, Tian Dan, an old man who got up early and took refuge in Zhao Guo, is extremely precious.

Because they took refuge early, they had already integrated with the people of Zhaodi, but in the eyes of people from other countries, they were from Qi and Yan......

With them, it is a benchmark, that is, to tell the world that Zhao Kuo will use his talents.

As for the selection of Hangu Pass, of course, Zhao Kuo is also for the balance of the future, and Zhao Guo should not have only one general who can fight.

Of course, these are Zhao Kuo's careful thoughts, but then again, isn't this to better win this war?

If Li Mu, Tian Dan and Zhou Qi are compared to upper, middle, and lower horses, then the corresponding configuration of the Qin State is Wang Ji, Hangu and Xianyang.

Therefore, instead of letting Li Mu's batch of superior horses deal with Xianyang's inferior horse, it is better to let Li Mu deal with Wang Di's medium horse, and then let Tiandan's medium horse fight against Xianyang's inferior horse.

Tian Dan may be able to hold Wang Ji back, but at best, it is just a chess opponent who will meet a good talent, and it is very likely that Tian Dan will not be able to give full play to the real combat power of the cavalry.

However, if Li Mu is replaced, it is very likely that he will be able to suppress Wang Di, or even defeat Wang Di directly.

Soon, after arranging the military deployment, Zhao Kuo's eyes also looked at Pingyuan Jun and Lu Buwei.

"Pingyuan-kun, Lu Qing." Zhao Kuo did not hesitate to continue to name him.

"Yes." Pingyuanjun and Lü Buwei also immediately stood up.

"As soon as there is a military supply, the supply of food must be sufficient." Zhao Kuo unceremoniously asked.

"Yes." The two immediately agreed in unison again.

Finally, a not too long imperial meeting finally ended, and Zhao finally kicked off the final battle with Qin.
