Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism
Chapter 156
At this time, Ying Wei looked at the map in front of him, nodded slowly and said:"When we were in Xianyang, I discussed it with the officials and the king, and the result of the discussion was also General Wang's plan."
"This time I came to the front line mainly to bring enough food and grass from Qin State."
"At that time, I will try to ask Guo Kai to persuade Zhao Wangqian to surrender. If Zhao Wangqian surrenders, then this batch of food and grass will be used to relieve the victims, ease the conflicts and hatred between Qin and Zhao, and appease the Zhao State."
"If Zhao Wangqian does not surrender, then this batch of food and grass will be used on the soldiers on the front line to slowly besiege Handan until the entire city of Handan is out of ammunition and food.
Wang Jian cupped his hands and said,"Just do it according to your Majesty's method!""
After making the decision, Ying Wei acted vigorously and resolutely. He immediately summoned the Luowang Killer and asked someone to send a secret letter to Handan City.
……
In the"July 47" mansion of Guo Kaixiang, the Prime Minister of Zhao State held a secret letter in his hand. He looked at the content inside and fell into deep thought. Only his eyes showed panic from time to time.
The content of the letter Ying Wei gave him was very simple, asking him to persuade King Zhao to surrender in Kaicheng.
As long as Zhao surrenders, the wealth owned by Guo Kai will not be touched by Qin and will still belong to Guo Kai.
But if King Zhao does not surrender, when the city of Handan is destroyed, not only will Guo Kai be killed by the butcher knife of Qin, his property will also be confiscated.
At this time, Ying Wei had already figured it out. Anyway, he had used Guo Kai to kill Li Mu, and the strongest war god in the Warring States period was no longer useful.
If Ying Wei before was still coaxing Guo Kai with nice talk and giving various gifts, then what Ying Wei now uses is the purest threat.
At this time, Guo Kai was even more willing to use such methods. As the prime minister of Zhao State, he certainly knew the situation of Zhao State at this time.
In fact, the situation in Handan was not as good as Wang Jian expected. The Zhao State was already exhausted, and the food reserves in Handan City were estimated to only be able to support the army for about two months.
The Zhao army currently guarding the city in Handan hopes even more that the Qin army can attack the city.
If the Qin army attacks the city, they can use their geographical advantages to counterattack the Qin army. The defender's army of more than 100,000 people far exceeds the attacker's army of 300,000 people.
If you are lucky, you can even directly counterattack the 300,000 troops outside the city, forcing Qin to retreat and giving Zhao a chance to breathe.
But in this secret letter, Ying Wei also told Guo Kai Qin's tactics without any concealment, which was to surround and not fight until Zhao collapsed internally.
Zhao's only way to survive now is to go to other countries to ask for help.
But King Qin Yingzheng had already anticipated this situation, and had almost mobilized the entire country to prepare an army of 200,000.
If other countries dare to come to support Zhao's army, these 200,000 troops will march forward without giving reinforcements a chance to arrive.
In fact, all countries have been frightened by Qin for a long time. Under this situation, almost all countries have the attitude that they will die for their fellow Taoists but not for the poor. As long as Qin has not invaded their country, they will not be able to unite the whole country. to rescue Zhao Guo.
After Ying Zheng decided to be ruthless, this was almost a dead end.
At this time, the terrible war machine of the Qin State was really launched with all its strength. If it could not win the five kingdoms this time, I am afraid that the Qin State would be severely damaged for a long time.
After Guo Kai got the secret report, he just thought about it for a few minutes before he had an idea, and immediately went to Zhao Palace
……
In the palace of King Zhao, Zhao Wangqian was panicking at this time. When he saw Guo Kai arriving, Zhao Wangqian seemed to have found his backbone and quickly asked:"Xiangbang, how should I treat you at this time?" The whole Handan was shocked. The Qin army was surrounded, and 300,000 troops were just outside the city. Even if there were hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops in the city to defend, King Zhao could no longer eat or sleep at this time.
Who knows whether the Qin army will suddenly break through the gate of Handan City, rush into the Zhao Palace and kill him, the King of Zhao.
Guo Kai burst into tears at this time. He first knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times, crying: (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"Your Majesty, I, I have no choice at this time."
"I have something to say that I don’t know whether to say."
Why did Zhao Wangqian think about anything else? He hurriedly asked:"If the Prime Minister has something to say, please speak out!"
Guo Kai said in a deep voice:"Please forgive me for being rude. In my opinion, what the king should do at this time is to take off his crown, hold the jade seal in hand, and ask the Qin army to surrender. Without waiting for Zhao Wangqian to speak, Guo Kai said again:"
It's not that I want to say this to others, but the Qin army has sent news that if the Zhao Kingdom's city is destroyed, the Qin Army will kill the entire Zhao Kingdom clan."......"
"But if the king asks for surrender, the clan can be saved."
"The situation in Handan City must have been known to the king, and it can only last for two or three months at most. But as long as the Qin State continues to besiege, Handan will be defeated in three months."
"I hope the king will make a decision as soon as possible. This is for the safety of the king."
"King An of Han also presented a seal to surrender. Today, the entire Korean royal family is still in existence, living a wealthy life in Yingdu, the old capital of Chu State."
"Your Majesty, you must think twice. The bloodline of King Zhao’s royal family must not be cut off here!"
Guo Kai said his words of persuasion to surrender with a completely good attitude for Zhao Wangqian.
Zhao Wangqian was originally an indecisive person who was greedy for life and afraid of death. Although he was greedy for the throne and power under him, if he wanted to do it for He is willing to sacrifice his own life for holding power for a few months!
You can live without power, but you cannot throw away your life.
Besides, Guo Kai is right, even if he surrenders, he can still live the rest of his life as a rich man. His life is just like in the past, idle and playing around.
To be honest, Zhao Wangqian has always been wary of his throne as King Zhao. In fact, sitting in this position not only enjoys the monopoly of power, but at the same time, he has to be careful of being conspired by others at any time. kill[]
Didn't Li Mu just want to conspire to kill him, the King of Zhao? 4.5 Fortunately, he was wise and martial and escaped.
Thinking of Li Mu, Zhao Wangqian also thought that the person who saved his life last time was Guo Kai. The suggestion made by Guo Kai at this time made Zhao Wangqian feel that this might be his only chance to survive.
Just when Zhao Wangqian was hesitant, an angry voice came from outside the palace:"Your Majesty, you must not listen to Guo Kai's slander!"
"How can we, the State of Zhao, surrender to Kaicheng? If we do so, your Majesty will lose hundreds of years of inheritance from our ancestors!"
Zhao Wangqian and Guo Kai both looked towards where the sound came from. When they saw the person coming, their expressions darkened and they looked unhappy. The person who came was none other than the deposed prince Gongzi Jia!
As soon as Gongzi Jia entered the door, he knelt down On the ground, he shouted:"Your Majesty, please lead all your disciples to the front line to fight with the Qin army and be loyal to our Zhao country!".
