Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Relying on the water control projects in Shu County over the years, Li Bing is quite popular in Shu, and is regarded by the people here as the master of the blue sky.

To defend Jiameng Pass, Wei Liao had to rely on Li Bing's help, so even though he was dissatisfied with Li Bing's absence, Wei Liao was still more polite when speaking.

Li Jian cupped his hands towards Wei Liao, and said very politely: "General Hui, my father is currently recruiting soldiers in Shu County, and it will take some days before he can come to help."

Wei Liao's brows furrowed slightly, and he couldn't help asking: "How many troops can Li Bing prefect recruit?"

Li Jian thought for a while and said, "About [-] to [-]. If there is no accident, it will arrive in about ten days."

Wei Liao's brows stretched even more, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said to Li Jian: "Well, you go to find your father immediately, and tell him to have someone take someone to guard the Mi Cang Road, Jin Niu Road I’m here to guard it.”

"Mi Cang Road?" Li Jian was stunned for a moment, then his face showed dissatisfaction, and he said: "General, the Mi Cang Road is a narrow path, which is not conducive to the passage of the army at all, how could the Zhao people attack from there? "

Wei Liao smiled and said: "You don't know, when Zhao Jun was attacking Hanzhong before, it was Zhao Kuo who succeeded in sneak attacking him from Ziwu Road, that's why we had to evacuate Hanzhong. So this time, I also need to be just in case, the prefect Li Bing has lived in Bashu for a long time, and must be very familiar with the terrain here, so I am very relieved to let him guard the Mi Cang Road."

As soon as Li Bing was mentioned, Li Jian showed a proud expression on his face, and said to Wei Liao: "Please rest assured, General, we will definitely guard the Mi Cang Road. Although the Zhao people seem to sweep the world, but To us Bashu men, it’s nothing more than mediocrity! If the Zhao people don’t come, it’s okay, if they come, the whole army will definitely be wiped out!”

Seeing Li Jian walking away with his head held high, Wei Liao's guard captain couldn't help but snorted, and said, "You brat from Shu, how dare you speak such wild words!"

Li Jian's words just now were full of confidence, but they also offended the captain of the personal guard invisibly.

If the people of Zhao Guo were really all rookies as Li Jian said, then what would happen to these generals and soldiers of the Qin Army who had been defeated by Zhao Jun so many times? "

Wei Liao smiled, and said: "I hope he can guard the Mi Cang Road as he said, then it will save me a lot of trouble."

The reason why Wei Liao asked Li Bing to lead his troops to defend the Mi Cang Road, of course, he also had his own considerations.

On the one hand, it was because of the reasons Wei Liao just mentioned, and on the other hand, it was also because Li Bing was much higher than Wei Liao in terms of qualifications and positions, and was actually a big threat to Wei Liao's status as the chief general.

As long as Li Bing is sent to Micang Road, then without Li Bing's possible constraints, Wei Liao can firmly hold the army at Jiameng Pass in his hands, and can implement his strategy more smoothly and conveniently intention.

Wei Liao felt that he was really too smart.

Chengdu.

A middle-aged official of the Qin State stood against the top of the city wall, with obvious worry on his face. This person was Li Bing, the prefect of Shu County in the Qin State.

There was a burst of footsteps, and an official quickly came to Li Bing's side, and said to Li Bing, "Prefect, the army has assembled and can start at any time."

Li Mu hummed casually, and suddenly said: "Erlang, do you think we can hold this Bashu land this time?"

It turned out that the official who came to report was none other than Li Bing's second son, Li Erlang.

Li Erlang's complexion is quite dark, which is caused by the long-term wind and sun exposure in the wild with Li Bing all the year round.

After hearing Li Bing's question, Li Erlang couldn't help laughing and said: "Yeah, I'm too worried. I think there are only two roads from Hanzhong to Shu. Although the Daqin Company has been defeated now, as long as we keep the Jinniu and Micang Dao, Bashu is naturally free from worries.”

Li Bing shook his head solemnly, and said: "I'm afraid the matter is not that simple. Zhao Jun swept across the Central Plains, and his momentum was unstoppable. I don't know if the road in the middle of Shu can stop Zhao Jun's footsteps. It is said that the king has already left Jia. Mengguan has gone south, I didn't go to pick him up, and I don't know if the king will be angry because of it."

Li Erlang let out a hey, and said in a low voice: "Yeah is also to recruit troops to go north to fight against Zhao, for his Daqin country, can he still have any complaints?"

"Shut up!" Li Bing gave Li Erlang a hard look, and said, "That's the king, how could you be so rude!?"

Li Erlang shrugged his shoulders, apparently not agreeing with his father's statement.

Due to the consecutive defeats of the Qin army, many people in the Qin country have questioned the leadership and ability to know and employ people, the great king of Qin, especially after the loss of Guanzhong, the prestige of Qin Wangchu has been extremely serious. Li Erlang's performance is just a microcosm.

Li Bing sighed, and said: "Okay, let's pass on the order to let the army go north immediately."

Chapter 983 Zhao Dan's Troubled Things (First Update)

Handan, the palace city of Zhao State.

Speaking of which, Zhao Dan was actually a little upset during this period of time.

Zhao Guo's conquest of other countries was not all smooth sailing.

For example, Yan State, although this country belongs to the country that was conquered by Zhao State a long time ago, there have been constant rebellions in the territory of Yan State. Even if Zhao Dan used many means, he could only maintain a roughly stable situation.

Not long ago, a large-scale rebellion broke out in Liaodong, Yan State. The rebels broke through several counties in Liaodong, and even occupied two-thirds of the Liaodong Peninsula at one time. The momentum was quite large.

According to the Liaodong intelligence that just came in, there are now [-] rebels who are besieging Xiangping City, the county seat of Liaodong.

Due to the rebellion in Liaodong, the territory of Zhao mainland and the northern part of the Korean peninsula were also temporarily separated.

In order to quell the rebellion, Zhao Dan sent General Xu Li to lead [-] elite soldiers northward, and dispatched [-] cavalry from the Monan Grassland to help out, preparing to solve the problem of the rebels in Yan State once and for all.

In addition, Qi's territory is also restless.

Zhao Dan assigned Han Fei to Prince Zhao Heng's side, and asked Han Fei to assist Zhao Heng in governing Qi.

It has to be said that although Han Fei is still quite young, the level of this historical celebrity has already been reflected at this time.

Although Han Fei is young, there are actually many people behind him who support him.

First of all, Han Fei's senior brother Li Si, since the current Han Fei has no possibility of replacing Li Si, Li Si still takes good care of his junior brother, and specially recruited many officials from the lieutenant system to accompany Han Fei Go to Qidi.

Although Han Fei and Li Si are still disciples of Confucianism in name, their behavior is actually no different from Legalism.

This can be seen not only from the fact that the officials Han Fei brought were basically legalist officials, but also from Han Fei's actions.

After arriving in Qidi, the first thing Han Fei did was to promulgate Zhao's laws to the whole Qidi, and let special personnel publicize and explain them.

In addition, a large number of cases caused by the war were also quickly dealt with, and many people who committed crimes were punished, which encouraged the people in Qi and greatly improved their impression of Zhao.

But at this time, Zhao Heng, the crown prince of the Zhao Kingdom, was assassinated during a tour in a low-clothes suit, and was slightly injured during the assassination.

This matter made Zhao Dan furious, and summoned Mao Sui and a group of supervisory guards to reprimand him severely, and then asked the supervisory guards to investigate to the end.

It was at this time that Zhao Dan received this urgent information from the battlefield of Qin State.

"Have Hanzhong been taken?" Looking at the battle report in front of him, Zhao Dan's complexion finally improved a lot, and the depression in his heart also seemed to dissipate a little.

You must know that Zhao Dan originally expected two years for this war to destroy Qin.

From this standard, Guanzhong and Hanzhong had already been captured just after the spring, and Qin was suppressed in the Bashu Basin. This was simply beyond Zhao Dan's expectations.

After reading the information carefully, Zhao Dan let out a long breath and finally showed a smile on his face.

"Sure enough, Zhao Kuo has lived up to the trust of the widow."

As a time traveler, Zhao Dan has always been somewhat contradictory in his attitude towards Zhao Kuo.

On the one hand, Zhao Dan knows very well that Zhao Kuo is a talented person and should be entrusted with important responsibilities, but on the other hand, whenever Zhao Dan wants to add a little burden to Zhao Kuo, he can't help but think of Zhao Kuo's history. The "brilliant record" on the Internet, so I can't help but have some suspicions in my heart.

It is precisely because of this ambivalence that although Zhao Kuo has served as the deputy general many times over the years, he has never been given the opportunity to be on his own.

So this time, Zhao Kuo's results obviously made Zhao Dan quite gratified.
