Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Zheng Zhu, who had not long returned from his envoy to the Kingdom of Yan, smiled and said, "Could it be that Wei Wangyu is really willing to see the achievements of the past few years just to be taken back by Chu Wangyuan?"

Zhao Sheng said with a smile: "Zheng Qing doesn't know. Now that the morale of the newly defeated Wei army is low, and there is no barrier in Taoyi, I am afraid that Wei Wangyu will not dare to send troops south to fight against the people of Chu."

Zhao Dan lightly tapped the table in front of him with his hand, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I really hope that Wei Jun can go south and have a battle with Chu Jun, but I don't know if Wei Wangyu has the courage to do so." By the way, how are the Koreans doing now?"

As soon as South Korea was mentioned, Zhao Sheng's face suddenly became a little weird, and he pouted angrily at Zheng Zhu in front of him, and gestured.

Zheng Zhu coughed and said, "Your Majesty, the envoys from South Korea just arrived in Handan last night, and they said that they came to seek peace from the King of Han at the order of the King of Han."

"Huh?" Zhao Dan was also a little stunned for a while, before snorting: "This King Han is really an old fox!"

Obviously, Han Wangran's ability to see the wind and turn the rudder is still very outstanding. Not only did he feel that something was wrong, he immediately sent someone to ask Zhao Guo for peace.

Zhao Dan can be said to hate South Korea's sudden betrayal during this war.

There are also many types of younger brothers. For Wei Guo, a thorny younger brother who is often disobedient, as long as he is beaten up a few times from time to time, it will be more or less the same.But the most disgusting thing is a guy like South Korea who usually puts on a loyal attitude, but suddenly stabs his elder brother twice at critical moments.

If it wasn't for Ju Xin's heroic combat and Xu Li's proper tactics, then once Shangdang County was captured by the Koreans, then Zhao Guo would really have one foot on the edge of a cliff, only one step away from failure.

"This bastard, you bloody traitor!" Zhao Dan swears a rare curse, waved his hands as if to repel flies, and said coldly: "Go and tell that envoy that I want you to have peace talks with South Korea, no problem! But, Han Wangran has to come to Handan to apologize to the widow himself! Otherwise, let him wait for the widow's army to approach the city of Xinzheng!"

This kind of request for the king of another country to come to his home capital in person is basically a naked humiliation.

However, none of the ministers of the State of Zhao who were present raised any objections. Obviously, they have long been unhappy with South Korea.

After listening to South Korea's intelligence, everyone's mood has improved to a higher level.

Now that the State of Wei has been abolished, and South Korea is also seeking peace, the State of Qin will not be able to defeat the Central Plains no matter how much it makes trouble. Zhao Guoda can clean up the State of Qi first and then consider other things.

The four kingdoms that once put great pressure on Zhao's monarchs and ministers to conquer Zhao's world are now full of loopholes, and it seems that they can be torn to pieces at any time.

Zhao Dan coughed and said: "Since the situation is clear now, let me pass on the orders of the widow. Now that the army in Handan City is empty and urgently needs a general to sit in the town, please return to Handan quickly. Pang Qing will be responsible."

Now that Lian Po and Pang Nuan have joined up, who will be the main general and who will be the deputy general is a problem that must be resolved.

In terms of status and official positions, Lian Po is obviously the most suitable to be the chief general.

But the problem is that in this war, Lian Po led a partial division, and he was defeated by the people of Qi. If Lian Po replaced Pang Nuan who had won the battle, it would definitely not be able to let the soldiers of Zhao's main force agreed.

And with Lian Po's current status, letting him serve as Pang Nuan's lieutenant general is also a kind of humiliation to Lian Po, so it is an inevitable choice to transfer Lian Po back.

For Zhao Dan, this result was not what he wanted. After all, the myth of Lian Po's invincibility was broken in this war, which was a big blow to Zhao's army and people.

Fortunately, it seems that Zhao Guo should be able to end in victory in the end, which can dilute the blow of Lian Po's failure to Zhao Guo.

From another point of view, Lian Po, who has experienced defeat, and Pang Nuan, who has won the battle, should be evenly matched in the future. This is a good thing for the check and balance of Zhao Dan, the king.

In general, the defeat of Gao Tang brought more harms, but the benefits are not without.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Sheng talked about the conquest of Yinjin City, and the Zhao Guojun and his officials present were naturally happy again.

Logically speaking, this military briefing should end here, and Zhao Dan just needs to make a summary.

Just when Zhao Dan was about to speak, Mao Sui's hurried figure suddenly appeared at the gate of the main hall, walking towards Zhao Dan.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Xianyang. Crown Prince Qin has sent Xiangbang Lu Buwei as an envoy for peace, and he is already on his way to Handan!"

Chapter 7 Nineteen Han Wangran lost his composure (first update)

Xinzheng, the royal palace of South Korea.

It was still the same hall, the hall was deserted, only Han Wangran and Xiangbang Feng Ting were there.

Han Wangran doesn't like to share power with anyone. In his opinion, the courtiers are just his own tools. He just needs to be in awe of himself and follow his orders.

Keeping your distance and keeping it secret is the best way to instill awe in other people.

If it wasn't for the need for Feng Ting to convey his orders to the courtiers, then Feng Ting wouldn't even be qualified to appear in this hall.

Feng Ting obviously understood this very well, so he sat there in a well-behaved manner without any expression on his face, and his whole person looked like a clay statue.

After a long while, Han Wangran said slowly, "Mr. Huayang, what do you think of King Zhao's reply?"

It is very interesting to say that the title of Lord Huayang was not granted to Feng Ting by Han Wangran, but by Zhao Dan.

But after Feng Ting returned to South Korea, Han Wangran still used such a title to call Feng Ting. The meaning of this is actually quite worth exploring.

Han Wangran's call seemed to have activated Feng Ting, Feng Ting's face moved slightly, and after a while he said: "Return to the king, in my opinion, the king really needs to go to Zhao Guo and his party."

Han Wangran snorted softly and said, "Why?"

Feng Ting's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "Because the Beishang Party did not take it down."

As soon as Feng Ting's words fell, Han Wangran's face moved, showing a hint of anger.

You must know that before the Battle of Changping broke out five years ago, Shangdang County was a territory of South Korea at that time, and Koreans knew the terrain of Shangdang County very well.

Moreover, the leading general of South Korea, Jin Fu, led the soldiers and civilians of Shangdang County to resist the invasion of the Qin army bravely in the post of the prefect of Shangdang County in the early stage of the Changping War, and his understanding of Shangdang County is far better than others.

In addition, there is no shortage of people in Shangdang County who still want to return to South Korea, and these people have naturally become South Korea's internal support in this war.

On the other hand, Zhao Guo was completely defenseless against South Korea's attack, but thousands of county soldiers were in charge of defense.

But under such circumstances, Jin Fu led an army ten times larger than Zhao Guoren's raid on Shangdang County, but ended in failure.

It can be said that Han Wangran's resentment towards Jin Yan has already broken through the sky.

But anger can't solve the problem, and this South Korean king who believes in the legalist Shin Buhai school of power and tactics and pays attention to the invisibility of emotions and anger knows it well.

So after a while, Han Wangran let out another long breath, and said softly: "But it is too much for Zhao Wang to let the widow go to Handan to worship him as a courtier!"

Generally speaking, when an alliance is held, the host country rarely chooses its own capital as the location.

The reason for this is that if the alliance is held outside the capital, it means that the younger brothers are meeting the elder brother.

But if the alliance is held in the capital, it means that the monarchs of the ministers and kingdoms have come to pay respects to the monarchs of the sovereign kingdom.

Under such circumstances, of course Han Wangran was not willing to go to Handan to meet Zhao Dan. Wouldn't this just demote himself to one level out of thin air?

Such a shame.

Of course, if it's really time to subjugate the country, don't talk about little brothers and courtiers, you must be counseled if you should.

Just like in the historical battle of Changping, King Zhao Xiaocheng also rushed to Xianyang to intercede with Qin Wangji, and it took a few more months for Huang Xie and Wei Wuji to send troops to Zhao Guo Life.

But the current South Korea has not yet reached that point.

You must know that in terms of territory, half of Shangdang County in Zhao State is still in the hands of South Korea.
