Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

No matter how nervous Wei Wangyu was, eating a meal for such a long time was enough for him to discover something wrong with Duan Ganzi.

Wei Wangyu stopped and daggered, frowned and said to Duan Ganzi: "Why, does Duan Qing have something on his mind?"

Duan Ganzi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he let out a wry smile, and said, "Go back to your lord, what's on your mind? I'm just a little worried about the situation on the front line."

These days, almost every piece of intelligence that comes back from the front is about emergency or help, which makes Duan Ganzi unable to calm down at all.

Wei Wangyu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he showed his face and smiled: "I still think it's something, just don't worry about Duan Qingru, Pang Nuan is unknown to everyone, but he is just a mediocre general. After blocking for a month, even if he was given another month, he would not be able to break through the line of defense. And after a month, South Korea has already taken Shangdang, and Qin has already taken Hedong long ago!"

As soon as he said this, the smile on Wei Wangyu's face became more intense.

But Wei Wangyu was happy, but Duan Ganzi couldn't laugh at all.

Although Duan Ganzi didn't directly lead the troops to fight, but as Prime Minister, Duan Ganzi certainly knew the battle situation on the front line very well.

The 15 Zhao State Central Army led by Pang Nuan put great pressure on Wei State's army. Although Wei State had already made up its mind to delay the main force of Zhao State from the beginning, all the arrangements were only defensive. There was no attack, but after all, the combat effectiveness of Wei's army was far from that of Zhao's, and secondly, the battlefield between the two sides was a plain with no danger to defend. This posed a big problem for Wei's army.

The war has been going on for more than a month now, and the battle reports from the front line are becoming more and more critical. Even in the two days of battle reports, the leading generals of Wei State's front line have already begun to request to retreat.

Duan Ganzi hesitated and hesitated, and finally he mustered up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, in fact, I have a merciless request."

Wei Wangyu gave Duan Ganzi a strange look, but he still said: "Duan Qing, just tell me."

Duan Ganzi let out a sigh of relief, and said in the most peaceful tone possible: "It's such a king, I heard from the frontline general that the Zhao army's offensive is getting stronger, and now I can't resist it. I think it's better to let him go." The army withdrew to Taoyi and defended Taoyi city, I wonder what your majesty thinks?"

The reason for making this opinion is that there is no other way.

Because the battlefield where Wei and Zhao are fighting fiercely is only tens of hundreds of miles away from Taoyi, the capital of Wei State, once the Wei army retreats, it will definitely withdraw into Taoyi.

This is also the reason why Wei Wangyu planned to move the capital before, it was too close.

In Duan Ganzi's view, one of the biggest benefits of withdrawing into Taoyi is that compared to the current plain battlefield, Wei Jun can have one more tall city wall in Taoyi as a line of defense.

With the help of this city defense, it will be much easier for Wei Jun to resist Zhao Jun's attack.

Anyway, Zhao Guo also fought a siege of Handan back then. In Duan Ganzi's view, it would be no problem for Wei Guo to come to defend Taoyi now.

Now that the four countries are attacking Zhao, only Wei is at a disadvantage in the four battlefields, but it doesn't really matter.

Wei Guo didn't have to do anything anyway, as long as the other three allied countries defeated Zhao Guo's old, weak, sick and disabled in other battlefields, then the main force of Zhao Guo led by Pang Nuan had to withdraw.

At that time, wouldn't it be a pleasure for Wei Guo to come to chase after him again?

Of course, Duan Ganzi didn't make a judgment on such a plan with a big impact.

Duan Ganzi not only solicited the opinions of the frontline generals, but also convened some ministers of Wei State in Taoyi to discuss together, and finally decided that this plan was the most beneficial to Wei State.

Even so, Duan Ganzi didn't bring it up right away, because Duan Ganzi still knew Wei Wangyu very well, and he knew that his face-saving monarch might not like this kind of retreat plan.

To put it mildly, it is a retreat, but in fact it is a defeat.

So until now the battle situation is indeed very tense, and this matter has to be mentioned. Duan Ganzi raised this matter to Wei Wangyu, hoping to use this tense situation to impress Wei Wangyu.

However, what Duan Ganzi didn't expect was that his opinion was rejected as soon as he put it forward.

"No." Wei Wangyu shook his head resolutely, and said, "Duan Qing, this is absolutely impossible!"

Duan Ganzi became a little anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "But my lord, if there is no city defense, I am afraid our soldiers will not be able to resist Zhao Jun's attack!"

Wei Wangyu snorted heavily, and said: "Taoyi is the capital of the widow. If Taoyi is besieged, how can I save my face? This matter must never be mentioned again!"

In fact, Wei Wangyu also had his own considerations in his heart. You must know that Wei Wangyu was trapped in Daliang City and was flooded by Li Mu in a flood, and he was also a prisoner of the Zhao people.

Although Zhao Guoren treated Wei Wangyu very politely at that time, and Wei Wangyu was released soon after Zhao Wei negotiated peace.

But it is an out-and-out shame and humiliation to be a prisoner of the enemy with the honor of the king of a country.

It can be said that Wei Wangyu's memory of this extremely humiliating feeling is still fresh, and it is absolutely impossible to want to experience it a second time.

But once Taoyi is besieged, this thing may really happen a second time!

How does this work?

So Wei Wangyu waved his hand, interrupted Duan Ganzi, and said, "Okay, isn't there still 3 defenders in the city, and another [-] are sent to the front line! If this is the case, you can defend it, right? Tell me Frontline soldiers, as long as we stick to it for another month, the Zhao people will definitely be defeated! Alright, I am tired, let's go to rest first!"

After Wei Wangyu finished speaking, he walked away, leaving Duan Ganzi stunned and helpless.

The situation in Changzhi City seems to be not very good in Chapter 7 (first update)

Zhao State Shangdang County, Changzhi County.

This is one of the largest counties in the North Shangdang Basin and even the entire Shangdang County. However, considering that Shangdang County itself is the county with the smallest population in Zhao State, this small town is actually only a few miles in radius. Mencius once said, "Sanli The city of Qili, the country of seven miles", is talking about such a small city.

But such a small city has now become a battlefield that affects many big figures in the mainland.

"The mere Changzhi, why hasn't it been captured for so long? If you can't join the party, how can you think you have won?" These are the words of Han Wangran.

"If Changzhi is lost, the Shangdang will perish. Only by defending Changzhi can we have a chance to fight back!" These words came from Zhao Dan.

It is not without reason that the monarchs of both sides pay so much attention to this small city.

In the Beishangdang Basin, there are three counties: Changzhi, Changzi, and Tunliu. Among them, Tunliu City is in the northwest, and Changzhi, the eldest son, is in the southeast and southwest respectively. It looks like a three-legged "Pin" character.

Due to the particularity of Shangdang County, if South Korea can capture Shangdang County, then the connection between Zhao Guodong County and the Central Plains will be cut off.

In this way, not only will it give South Korea's current ally Qin a great opportunity to conquer Hedong County, but the Koreans will also be able to use Shangdang County as an exit to bypass Zhao's South Great Wall and appear under Handan City without anyone noticing.

Considering the fact that most of Zhao Guozhong's troops have been sent to support other battlefields, as long as the Koreans can win in the battlefield of Shangdang Army, then as long as Zhao Guozhong does not defeat other countries, it is impossible to have any Troops came back and forth to help Handan.

In this way, the difficulty of Jin Fu's attack on Handan is naturally impossible to be compared with that time when the Qi Wei allied forces jointly attacked Handan.

Because in the Battle of Handan that year, Pang Nuan and Ju Xin led [-] elite guards to guard Handan.

Of course, it is still too early to say these things. For both Zhao and Han, the key point is still the competition for this small city.

South Korean general Jin Bing stood on a chariot, with a big handsome flag flying high behind him, which could be clearly seen from any place on the battlefield.

The South Korean general stared at the battlefield in front of him with a serious face, frowning tightly on his resolute face, showing no sign of letting go.

As we all know, when it comes to the strength of the world's soldiers, Koreans have always been very proud, thinking that they are not inferior to any country.

Although it is said that because of the loss of Yiyang decades ago, South Korea's smelting suffered a huge blow, but after regaining Yiyang City, the Koreans who obtained steel resources once again had a chance.

After several years, through the secret recipes and craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation by some Korean master craftsmen, South Korea's military armor smelting level has once again advanced by leaps and bounds, and now it has once again stood at the top of the mainland. At least the Koreans themselves are so thought.

At this moment, in front of Jin Yan, thousands of Korean soldiers wearing iron helmets and armor are climbing up the ladder, and they look like ants hanging densely on the city wall of Changzhi County. above.

However, these soldiers had just climbed halfway, and the figures of many Zhao soldiers appeared on the city wall.
