Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

So Uncle Li couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, could it be that Li Mu really dared to burn Liyang?"

In this era, it is actually not easy to build a city, so unless you really don't care about completely offending the other party, things like massacring or burning cities are very rare.

It was Yu Xin who came back to Uncle Li, and Yu Xin said: "Li Mu always likes surprises when using troops. This time, the king has issued several orders not to massacre or flood the city, but if Liyang is burned with fire, then It is not included in the king's ban."

For some reason, when he heard Yu Xin's words, Zhao Dan suddenly had the urge to help his forehead.

Dear Comrade Li Mu, the decades-old hatred of the Chu people was burned out in vain. If you burn it down, will the Qin and Zhao people become decades-old enemies?

Zhao Dan didn't like things like burning cities very much. Thinking about Xiang Yu's entering Guanzhong at the end of the Qin Dynasty, he burned the Afang Palace to a white ground, and a large number of precious ancient books in Xianyang were also destroyed in the flames of war.

This is not only a loss for Xianyang and Qin, but also a huge loss for the entire Huaxia Ming.

But things have come to this, if Li Mu really intends to burn Liyang, then the ashes in Liyang must have been cold for many days now, and Zhao Dan has nothing to do.

Anyway, a Liyang is not too important, let alone offending Qin.

But next time we attack Xianyang, we still have to let Li Mu pay attention, don't let Li Mu really learn from Xiang Yu and burn Xianyang with a torch, then Zhao Dan will really feel a little uncomfortable.

Zhao Dan let out a sigh of relief, and did not continue to dwell on Li Mu's topic, but directly turned back to Hedong County, saying: "It seems that we have to find a chance to take down Xihe County and Shang County in the future. Otherwise, if this Hedong is always threatened by the people of Qin, that won’t work.”

After the war this time, Needless to say, Hedong County will definitely undergo another rebuilding, and Zhao Dan feels very upset when he thinks of this.

After working hard for several years, I will return to before liberation.

It will take several years to wait for Hedong County to develop again.

Zhao Dan tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and decided that next time he must teach the Qin people a lesson.

The phrase "a loss is a blessing" may be a successful philosophy of life, but it is not the case at all for Zhao Guo.

In this era, forbearance represents weakness.

If other countries find that Zhao Guo is a weak country, then these guys who were afraid to act rashly under the deterrence of Zhao Guo's majesty may really have the courage again, and dare to unite to make some moves against Zhao Guo .

In general, the topic on Li Mu's side basically ended here.

The main reason is that it is true that the news lags too seriously, and there is nothing to discuss if you want to discuss it.

Just when Zhao Dan was about to announce the end of the meeting, Miao Xian hurried in, handed a secret report to Zhao Dan, and whispered to Zhao Dan: "Your Majesty, the highest level secret report in Xianyang!"

When Zhao Dan heard Miao Xian's words, his expression became extremely serious.

You must know that Xianyang can be called the highest-level secret report, and it is definitely related to Lu Buwei.

Could it be that this super spy of the State of Zhao who had just successfully penetrated into the core circle of the State of Qin brought some earth-shattering news to Zhao Dan?

Zhao Dan took the secret report in Miao Xian's hand without thinking, and began to read it.

This secret report is actually a very inconspicuous piece of linen that seems to have been torn off by a servant inadvertently, on which the two words Yueshi are written in small, slightly indistinguishable characters.

Yueshi?

Zhao Dan was taken aback for a moment, and then his complexion quickly became ugly.

The ministers of the Zhao Kingdom on the side observed their words and expressions, and immediately knew that something was wrong.

So Zhao Sheng, who was Xiangbang, coughed, and then asked Zhao Dan: "Your Majesty, I don't know what happened?"

Zhao Dan raised his head, the expression of displeasure on his face was very obvious, and there was a hint of displeasure when he spoke: "The Qin people plan to collude with the Yue clan and come from the west to sneak attack the widowed Shuofang and Hetao counties!"

"Yueshi?" Upon hearing the news, Zhao Guoqun's ministers also became unhappy.

Although it is said that Zhao Guo easily defeated the Yueshi under Zhao Dan's pressure last time, and captured a large number of Yueshi's prisoners alive.

But it was through the mouths of these Yuezhi captives that Zhao Guo learned about the situation of the Yuezhi, and knew that this was a country even stronger than the Xiongnu.

Of course, for the mighty state of Zhao, the current Xiongnu is actually a weak chicken, and the Yuezhi people are always stronger than the Xiongnu, so there is no way to win.

But the problem is that Zhao Guo doesn't have many soldiers and horses in the two counties of Hetao.

If King Yuezhi suddenly crossed the Yellow River with tens of thousands of cavalry to attack Shuofang County and Yiqu, then the two counties of Hetao might really fall into the hands of the Yuezhi people.

Once the two counties of Hetao fall, the rear of Li Mu's troops who are still playing with the people of Qin in Guanzhong will be cut off instantly, and the situation will suddenly become dangerous.

By that time, the [-] Zhao cavalry led by Li Mu may even face the big trouble of being wiped out.

The palace of Zhao State was filled with a dignified atmosphere for a while.

Zhao Dan coughed lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Zhuqing, do you think the Yue clan will join forces with the people of Qin?"

To be honest, since Lu Buwei's secret letter only had two words, Zhao Dan couldn't figure out whether the Yueshi and Qin had joined forces or sent troops.

But Zhao Dan also understood in his heart that Qin Wangzhu had just passed away, and Li Mu was wandering around the pass with [-] Zhao cavalry. too harsh.

Xiangbang Zhao Sheng said: "Your Majesty, I feel that the Yue Clan was defeated last time at the hands of the King, and I think he must hold a grudge. If there is an opportunity this time, the Yue Clan King will probably not let it go."

Yu Xin said: "Your Majesty, I feel that the Yuezhi people may not necessarily make a move. After all, the Yuezhi people suffered a big defeat at the hands of the King last time. The Yuezhi King must be wary of this and dare not act rashly."

Both of their words sounded reasonable.

After pondering for a while, Zhao Dan still said: "As the saying goes, no matter whether the Yuezhi people have issued an order or not, they should be prepared first. In case the Yuezhi people really come but have no troops to deal with it, then It's really a joke."

"The widow's order is to go on, immediately mobilize all the troops in the northern counties, at least form an army of more than 5 people, and rush to Hetao County as quickly as possible, and prepare to face the Yuezhi people!"

Zhao Dan patted the table with a murderous look on his face: "I want everyone in the world to know that it's not easy to take advantage of a widow. Whether it's a person from Qin or Yuezhi, if you want to take advantage of a widow, Then be prepared to pay the price!"

Chapter 574 Bold Slave (Third)

The palace city of Zhao State, the palace of Mrs. Mi.

As a husband, Zhao Dan seems to be quite generous to this newlywed wife. This is just from the various high-grade furniture in the palace and the freshly delivered table, which is still braving the slightest bit of cold. You can see it in the sour plum soup for relieving summer heat.

But what Zhao Dan didn't know was that this sour plum soup, which was originally given to his little wife, was being given to him by a middle-aged court lady who looked ugly and even showed yellow teeth when she smiled. Hold it in your hand and savor the taste of the sour plum soup.

"Oh, ma'am, to tell you the truth, this sour plum soup is really cool and pleasant, and it makes the slaves cool off." The palace lady talked to Mrs. Mi in an exaggerated tone, while gurgling all The sour plum soup drank clean.

Casually putting down the sour plum soup, the maid straightened her back a little, and smiled at Mrs. Mi in front of her with a narrow smile on her face: "Ma'am, Xianyang has started urging again. I don't know about Madam's information." How is the collection going?"

Mrs. Mi was sitting opposite the palace lady, with a desolate and hesitant expression on her delicate face, she said to the palace lady: "Ru, don't you know that the king has not been here for a while? ? You can’t walk freely in Zhao’s palace, and I, I have nothing to do.”

As soon as the lady in the palace heard Mrs. Mi's words, the smile on her face was like the melting ice and snow in spring, and she restrained herself in an instant.

"Oh, ma'am, ma'am, although the slaves know that Madam's words are true, Madam doesn't think about it. If these words are passed on to the big men in Xianyang, will Xianyang believe Madam's words?"

Mrs. Mi is trying hard to win some leeway for herself: "I heard that King Qin passed away recently, and now he is the prince regent, shouldn't Xianyang should, should?"

The lady in the palace shook her head, a pair of small eyes suddenly revealed a sharp light, and said sharply: "Ma'am, don't you understand? We are all under the control of waiting. What's the use of replacing a few kings? Information will always be the top priority of our spies."
