Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

In the first anti-Zhao alliance, there were three countries, Qin, Wei, and Qi, and in the second time, there were four countries: Qin, Wei, Qi, and South Korea. Now this third time has intensified, and six countries have joined together.

As soon as Zhao Dan thought of this, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he exhaled softly: "Hmph, the world is an enemy? This is really interesting."

Zhao Dan raised his head and glanced at Mao Sui in front of him, and said, "Mao Sui, hurry up and gather all the noble families, let them attack immediately and hold an emergency meeting with the widow!"

Half an hour later, seven ministers of Zhao State gathered in the main hall of Longtai.

Like Zhao Dan, the seven ministers of the Zhao Kingdom did not expect such a thing as the Six Kingdoms' attack on Zhao. When Zhao Dan told them the whole thing, they were all completely stunned.

After a long while, Lian Po was the first to break the silence in the hall, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, don't worry. In the eyes of the old minister, these six countries are nothing more than chickens and dogs. Please allow me to The veteran leads the army, and the veteran will definitely solve this matter for the king!"

The old general said these words with arrogance and resounding.

Pang Nuan glanced at Lian Po, and immediately said not to be outdone, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, as long as there are ministers around, no matter how rampant the Allied Forces of the Six Nations are, they will definitely not be able to threaten your Majesty's Handan!"

Obviously, these two military leaders are full of confidence in this time when the six countries are attacking Qi.

But apart from these two generals, the others did not seem so optimistic.

Zhao Sheng frowned and said: "Although this is the case, please think about it, this is the most powerful war of the enemy since the founding of the Zhao Kingdom. It can be said that it has gathered the power of the entire China and In Zhao's battle, the outcome is hard to predict."

It is unpredictable, but from the expression on Zhao Sheng's face, it can be seen that he is not very optimistic about Zhao Guo's chances of winning in this battle.

For the first time, Yu Xin also stood by Zhao Sheng's side on such an important issue, nodded and said: "Mr. , but if the six countries come together to attack, then their strength and strength will still be much greater than those of Zhao."

Although the other important ministers did not speak, judging from the dignified expressions on their faces, they all obviously felt that this matter was very serious.

The atmosphere in the hall became very dignified.

Zhao Dan, who had been silent all this time, glanced at the hall, and found that almost everyone was more or less worried.

This will not work.

These people are the highest-ranking ministers of the State of Zhao. If they mess up their positions before the fight begins, how can they deal with the enemy's attack?

Zhao Dan coughed, and said in a deep voice to the important ministers of the Zhao State: "My dear friends, you are worrying too much. Although this is indeed the most powerful enemy that the widow and even the Zhao State have ever encountered, don't forget, Now the Zhao State under the rule of your beloved ministers and widows is also the most powerful Zhao State in history, and even the most powerful country in history!"

When Zhao Dan said these words, the ministers present nodded repeatedly.

Throughout history, there has never been a country as powerful as Zhao.

Even the Shang Dynasty back then, the Zhou Emperor in its heyday, and even the later Five Hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period, or the Qi State under the Qi Xuan King, the Qin State under the Qin Zhaoxiang King, etc., compared with the current Zhao State. Said to be slightly inferior.

This is not Zhao Dan's bragging, but the consensus of the entire Chinese world.

Zhao Dan saw that his words resonated with the ministers, and continued: "The Qin State back then was not as strong as the Zhao State that I am now, and it was able to make the two expeditions against Qin by the six kingdoms of Shandong come back without success. And What about the widow? The widow is stronger than King Zhaoxiang of Qin, because the widow has defeated two continuous horizontal operations against Zhao Guo!"

"Not only that, but the widow must completely crush the third war against Zhao, and let all the countries in the world know that only the widow and the country of Zhao are the real masters of this world!"

"My lords, I admit that the enemy this time is indeed very powerful, but this is just a counterattack before they die. As long as we survive this wave, I want to ask if even the six kingdoms will not be able to defeat us , then is there any power in this world that can defeat us?"

"No, there won't be any more! At that time, our country of Zhao will be truly invincible! At that time, even if the whole world unites, it will not be able to stop Zhao's unification of the world!"

Zhao Dan's words reverberated in the hall, they were so sonorous and forceful that the ministers of Zhao State who were a little panicked and hesitant immediately stabilized.

You must know that these ministers are all outstanding Dvs in the world, but they couldn't turn their heads just because they heard the shocking news of the Six Kingdoms' defeat of Zhao.

Now that he has returned to normal under Zhao Dan's encouragement, he naturally understands that what Zhao Dan said is indeed true.

For Zhao Guo, this is not only an unprecedented difficult challenge, but also an unprecedented super opportunity.

As long as we can overcome it, although Zhao Guo's road to unify the world is still full of difficulties and obstacles, it is no longer an elusive goal!

Thinking of this, all the important officials of the Zhao State finally showed fighting spirit on their faces, they suddenly stood up and saluted Zhao Dan at the same time, and said in unison: "I am waiting for you, I am willing to help the king to overcome this difficulty and help Zhao Guo take off in the world! "

Zhao Dan was delighted in his heart, knowing that his encouragement was not in vain this time, he also showed a smile on his face, and said to the Zhao Guozhong ministers in front of him: "Very good, since this is the case, then the Qing family will discuss it first. How should we deal with the attacks of the six nations?"

Lian Po took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, the veteran thinks that since the war has expanded, Le Cheng should not continue to cross the Huai River to attack Shouchun, but should order him to lead the main force to retreat north and approach Handan, so as not to The lone army went deep and was cut off by other enemy countries."

Zhao Dan thought about it, and felt that Lian Po's words were indeed reasonable.

In the previous battle against Wei, since both South Korea and Chu were allies of Zhao, Le Cheng could go all the way south unscrupulously without worrying about being cut off by the people of Wei.

But now South Korea and Chu State have become the enemies of Zhao State. If Le Cheng continues to attack Shouchun south of the Huai River, South Korea and Chu State will definitely cut off their retreat from behind. This is obviously not a good thing.

So Zhao Dan quickly made a decision and said, "In this case, let Le Cheng lead the troops to retreat to Suiyang."

Suiyang is a place that can lock the communication between Han, Chu, Wei and Qi, and is not too far from Handan. It is definitely an excellent choice for advancing and retreating.

Zhao Sheng also said: "Your Majesty, I think it's time to mobilize all the county soldiers and civilian husbands to deal with this war."

Zhao Dan pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "Yes, the conscription order will be issued all over the country tomorrow."

Since the Battle of Changping, it has been a long time since the State of Zhao has had the power of the whole country to deal with the war, because the State of Zhao has never encountered an opponent that requires the power of the whole country to deal with.

Obviously, for this victory, Zhao Dan also went all out and broke the boat.

As for other matters such as the mobilization of food and grass, people naturally have to handle it separately. Only the most critical military situation has not been reported to Handan, so it is not yet possible to make a decision.

Zhao Guojun and his ministers discussed for a full night, and the ministers did not leave Longtai until dawn.

Zhao Dan stood up from his seat, rubbed his somewhat sore eyes, looked at the fish-belly whiteness outside the hall, and let out a long breath.

Since you other six nations want to fight head-to-head with the widow, then this time, the widow will accompany you to the end!

Chapter 771 The six nations want a decisive battle? (third change)

Five days later, another meeting was held in the main hall of Zhao Guolong Terrace.

This time, the eight hundred miles of urgent military information gathered from all over the country finally gave Zhao's monarchs and ministers a general understanding of the current situation.

Sitting in the hall, Zhao Dan said to Lian Po in front of him: "Mr. Wu Xin, please tell me about the military situation you just received."

Holding a baton in his hand, Lian Po stood on the huge map hanging beside the main hall with a very serious expression. He nodded towards Zhao Dan first, and then spoke to several important ministers of Zhao Guo in the main hall. Said: "First of all, let's talk about Qin State. Qin Wangchu sent Wang Lu as the main general, and led an army of 15 people to set off from the Guan Zhongyin and Jincheng. Now they are attacking Hangu Pass. It seems that they want to break through Hangu Pass, and then go east. Central Plains."

The people in the hall were stunned when they heard Lian Po's words, Zheng Zhu couldn't help but said: "Aren't the Qin people attacking Hedong County?"

After all, in the past few wars, Qin's attack on Hedong County has almost become a set pattern.

Lian Po shook his head with a serious face, and said: "No. According to the marching route and attack direction of the main force of the Qin State, the Qin Army definitely wants to rush out of the Central Plains by passing through the Hangu Pass, and seek a decisive battle in the Central Plains. .”

The faces of Zhao Guojun and ministers present began to become a little serious. From the current situation, the most threatening country to Zhao Guo is actually Qin Guo.

It would not be such a bad idea if he could use Hedong County and even add Shangdang County as a buffer to hold back Qin State. In fact, Zhao State has always done this in the past few wars. .

But now the people of Qin State made it clear that they would not play with the people of Zhao State in Hedong County, and they wanted to go out to Zhongyuan to have a decisive battle with Zhao State, which made the monarchs and ministers of Zhao State feel a little pressure.

Uncle Li couldn't help but said: "The Qin army is coming out in such a large force, don't they want to leave their old nest in Guanzhong? Don't forget, General Li Mu's side cavalry regiment is still there, and there are enough soldiers from Hedong County and Jinyang County Cut off the Weihan channel after going east?"
