"Over the years, Zhao Guo's strength has recovered, and everyone in the world has seen it, why does Luo Nanjun say that Zhao Guo is not coming back from the dead, but returning to the light?"

Yang Duanhe listened a little confused, although he didn't think that the Qin State would be unable to defeat the Zhao State, but he couldn't understand why the Zhao State of Zhao, which had become more and more powerful in recent years, had become so unbearable in Zhang Ji's mouth.

Not only Yang Duanhe, but also many Wenchen generals could not understand.

In the eyes of the Qin government and the opposition, the sworn enemy of Zhao has recovered from the semi-coma after the Battle of Changping and has regained its strong strength, otherwise, how could it defeat the Yan army several times, and even played a good performance in the battle of Hezhong.

"I know you have doubts, and let me clear your doubts."

Zhang Ji arched his hand at Ying Zheng, took a wooden stick from the old eunuch Ling's hand, and pointed it on the huge map of Zhao State that was hanging.

"Today's Zhao State seems to be a powerful army, but in fact it is just a strong foreign force. The second change of the Zhao State also disappeared with the death of Pingyuan Jun, Lin Xiangru and others.

Although the Zhao State once restored the military strength and forged countless weapons and armor for the army, the excessive exploitation of the people's power made the livelihood of the people of Zhao State destroyed, and the tax revenue was only less than half of what it was before the Battle of Changping. ”

"The armament is sufficient, but the grain and grass can't support the Zhao State to fight a protracted war, and if the previous Hezong War was not for the countries to borrow grain, the Zhao State would not even be able to afford the cost of that war."

Zhang Ji waved his hand and signaled the sun to distribute the information in his hand and pass it to each of the civil and military ministers, which recorded in detail the tax and population changes in many cities of Zhao in the past few years, as well as the amount of grain stored in the city's grain storage.

From the data listed in these intelligences, even those reckless men who don't understand political affairs can see that Zhao Guo is strong and middle-class, and then Zhang Ji continued to analyze: "Secondly, over the years, Zhao Guo has withered in talents, and it has long since disappeared from the grand occasion when Zhao Xiaocheng was king. ”

"In the past, Zhao was full of talents, gathered under the command of King Zhao Xiaocheng, such as Xinping Jun Lianpo, Ma Fujun Zhao Hao, Xiangbang Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, Shangqing Lin Xiangru, Shangqing Yu Xin, Shangqing Zheng Zhu, Zuo Shi Touch Long, etc., are all talents, but no one is alive today."

"Who are the rest of the Zhao Dynasty now?"

"Zhao Cong, Yan Ju, Hu Lu and other soldiers are mediocre generals, doing big things and cherishing their lives, and forgetting their lives when they see small profits." Zhang Ji faced Wang Jian and said, "Although the Qin army repelled the thief army in the first battle of Yucheng, the general should know about the danger. ”

Wang Jian squinted his eyes, recalling the battle of Yucheng at the beginning, and he was still a little afraid of that battle to this day.

After all, Ying Zheng entrusted Xianyang's safety to him, and if Xianyang was lost, he really couldn't imagine what impact it would have on the battle situation.

"At the beginning, although the old man knew about Luo Nanjun's plan, he ...... is still planning to repay the country with death. Wang Jian shook his head with a wry smile, and gently patted Wang Ben's shoulder, who was a little stunned, "If it weren't for the old general Meng personally leading the golden fire cavalry of the Meng family to rush to the battlefield to support first, I'm afraid that in another half an hour, the army under my command will be defeated." ”

Even if it was clear that Zhang had the opportunity to enter the Yan camp to persuade the Yan army to retreat, Wang Jian did not dare to be careless at that time. In the final analysis, a plan is just a plan after all, and no one dares to guarantee that it will be successful until the moment it is realized, and everything is risky.

"But even if the Meng family's golden fire cavalry raided the enemy's main general Pang Xuan, if the Zhao army did not retreat, then the victory or defeat was still unknown, after all, the only reinforcements that came first at that time were the golden fire cavalry." Wang Jian sighed, "If the Zhao army does not withdraw and the coalition forces fight to the death, then the old man will not dare to assert the victory." ”

"Even if the army is defeated, the old man is confident that the elite retention of the coalition army will be withdrawn at the minimum cost."

Suddenly, there was a sound of broken shouts from outside the hall, and the voice was full of unwillingness and resentment.

The person who came had gray hair, his face was full of wrinkles, his eyes were red, and he exuded a strong killing aura, which was obviously formed after many years of training on the battlefield.

"It seems that General Pang Lao has figured it out."

Zhang Ji chuckled and stepped forward, helping Pang Xuan into the hall.

Pang Xuan glanced at Zhang Ji, he didn't have much resentment towards this person who ruined his plan.

Although Zhang Ji learned about his plan by obtaining information from Yan Dan, and also made a pocket for him to plunge into, the soldier said that as long as it was not through assassination and other bottomless means, he could accept it.

What's more, with Zhang Ji's reputation after destroying Han and the name of Bai Qi's successor, losing to Zhang Ji will not fall into his reputation.

He really resented Yan Dan, a hypocrite who betrayed the intelligence of the coalition forces.

Zhao Cong is just that, in the final analysis, it is the discord between the Zhao people and the generations and the suspicion of Zhao Wangyan, but Yan Dan ......

If there is anyone in this world who is more hated than a belligerent enemy, it must be a traitor!

Pang Xuan replayed the battle situation in his mind more than once in prison, and if Qin did not know about his plan to enter from Hedong to bypass Hangu Pass and attack Xianyang, then what would be the outcome of the battle.

He felt that his odds of winning were sixty percent anyway!

It's all Yan Dan, and those Yan dogs caused him to be defeated!

As soon as he thought of this, the hand holding Zhang Ji's arm couldn't help but use a little more force.

"The old general is slow, don't be in a hurry."

Zhang Ji seemed to feel the resentment in Pang Xuan's heart, and signaled that Pang Xuan did not need to be in a hurry.

He had been persuading Pang Xuan to serve the Qin State all these days, so much so that even his good daughter was taken away by Tide, the titular mother.

The tide seems to really like this daughter, which Zhang Ji can perceive.

In the face of this little padded jacket carved in pink, blinking with big watery eyes, waving pink little hands and grinning, as if tirelessly shouting "Mother" and "Mother" over and over again, what woman can not love it?

And it is not difficult to persuade Pang Xuan.

Pang Xuan had already given up on Zhao Guo, but he didn't choose to give in, as if he had no desires, he ate and drank every day, and whatever books he wanted to read, the jailer had to send them to him.

This is Tingwei Prison, it is clearly a luxury pavilion.

But who makes the family have a relationship?

The high disciple of the Taoist Taishang Sect Crane Guanzi, can the Qin State really kill it?

The Taoists located in Taiyi Mountain in the Qin Realm have always been friendly with the Qin State, and they are the first school among the hundreds of sons to establish diplomatic relations with the Qin State.

What's more, the Crane Guanzi just asked Qin Guo to treat Pang Xuan leniently, without releasing him, without unsealing the seal on his cultivation, this requirement Qin Guo can naturally meet, and with good wine and good food, every time the jailer diligently cleans the cell, he is very comfortable.

Therefore, Pang Xuan also has an indifferent attitude, and even plans to spend his old age in Tingwei Prison simply.

And Zhang Ji's arrival actually ignited a fire in Pang Xuan's heart, a raging fire that exploded little by little, and a fire of revenge against Yan Zhao!

However, he was still a little worried about Pang Xuan's body, and was imprisoned for more than a year after being temporarily blocked by the pipa bone and cultivating in his body, although he ate and drank well every day, he had no fighting spirit, and he was depressed every day, and his body was naturally very weak at the age of ninety.

You must know that just last month, although Lian Po, who was in his eighties, lived several years longer than in history, he finally died of illness, who knows what the old general's health was.

"If you don't kill Yan Dan, the old man won't be blind to death!"

After speaking, Pang Xuan coughed violently, although his face was pale, the persistence and anger in his eyes could be perceived even by Yingzheng, who was sitting on the throne.

Yingzheng, who was bent on destroying Zhao, knew that Pang Xuan would be a great help for him to destroy Zhao, so he hurriedly got up and came to Pang Xuan's side, and bowed down: "Please help the old general to help the widow, if the widow can destroy Zhao, if there is a chance in the future, he will definitely kill Yan for the old general to vent his anger!" ”
