Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Zhou Shaoliang gasped, his heart was overwhelmed.

At first I thought Zhao Kuo was too arrogant and self-confident, but at this moment Zhou Shaofen suddenly realized that the real fool was himself!

Chapter 243 Wu Xinjun is Back

The queen mother's envoy soon saw Zhao Kuo, and then knelt down with a plop: "Wu Xinjun, Great Zhao is at stake!"

Zhao Kuo, who was resting on the reclining chair with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes fell on the messenger: "The general is defeated?"

"Defeated! The two countries of Korea and Wei betrayed, and the generals were outnumbered." "How many people died?"

"Only [-] remnants retreated" was quiet.

Xu Li's eyes widened, and Zhou Shaoliang, the governor of Hedong County who came with him, was even more stunned.

After all, Lian Po's reputation is there. Although everyone knew that Lian Po had lost, no one thought that Lian Po would lose so badly.

Zhou Shaoliang looked at Zhao Kuo, and suddenly had an understanding in his heart.

It turns out that Zhao Guo's victories in the past few years were not because Zhao Guo was stronger, but only because Zhao Kuo was stronger.

The powerful one is not Zhao Guo, but the Wu Xinjun in front of Zhou Shaoliang!After a while, Zhao Kuo let out a long sigh and stood up: "Xu Li, immediately go to Li Mu and ask him to gather his troops, and we will return to Handan immediately!"

Xu Li immediately took the order and left.

Zhao Kuo patted the envoy's shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I will return to Handan later. You can rest here for a few days."

The envoy's dust and sweat and the strong smell of sweat all proved how much effort he had made to meet Zhao Kuo as soon as possible. He has always appreciated the hardworking official Zhao Kuo.

The envoy said proudly: "Mr. Wu Xin was joking, I am a minister of Great Zhao, and now that Great Zhao is in danger, it is the time when I need to rush back to Handan to serve, how can I waste time in Anyi?"

Zhao Kuo looked at the envoy in astonishment, and instead of being angry because of the envoy's contradictory, he laughed instead: "Okay, very good!"

Seeing that Zhao Kuo was about to leave, Zhou Shaoliang became impatient: "Your Honor, if you leave, what will happen to Hedong County?"

In less than half an hour, Zhou Shaoliang's concept has completely changed, and he has thrown the general Lian Po out of the sky at this moment.

Zhao Kuo glanced at Zhou Shaoliang with a smile, and said seriously: "This Marquis has his own arrangements, don't worry, nothing will happen to Hedong County."

Now Zhao Guo suffered a big defeat in Gaotang, and the Allied Forces of the Five Nations invaded the territory of Zhao State. At this time, everyone thought that Qin State might take advantage of the fire to attack Hedong County, but Zhao Kuo, who was sitting in Hedong County, wanted to leave at this time , Zhou Shaoliang's little heart couldn't bear it at all.

If Zhao Kuo can stay in Hedong County, Zhou Shaoliang is willing to do anything at this time!However, Zhou Shaoliang was doomed to be disappointed.

Half an hour later, Zhao Kuo left Anyi with [-] Chi You troops without stopping, and headed towards Handan in the east.

Looking at Zhao Kuo's back, Zhou Shaoliang lost his mind and muttered to himself, "It's over, it's over for Hedong."

At this moment, Zhou Shaoliang regretted so much, why did he show off in front of Zhao Kuo!Four days later, Handan, Miyagi.

Another court meeting was held, and the atmosphere of the court meeting this time was extremely depressing.

Mr. Pingyuan said dryly: "Queen Mother, there are still 20 soldiers guarding Handan, and the highest mobilization order has been issued to all counties. It is estimated that [-] foreign reinforcements will arrive in Handan within a month. There should be [-] reinforcements arriving in Handan within a month."

"Two months?"

Taishi Han Xuwei couldn't help but said: "This time is too slow.

Now that the general is trapped in Lingqiu City, can it last for two months? "

Mr. Pingyuan took a look at Han Xuwei, and said coldly: "This is already the fastest time for Zhao's army to gather. If the grand master is still dissatisfied, this Marquis can completely hand over this matter to the grand master. Let's see if Grand Master can do better than Benhou!"

Han Xuwei was speechless at this sentence.

Lin Xiangru sighed secretly in his heart, and said: "The most urgent thing is to find a way to rescue Lingqiu.

Lingqiu is the eastern gateway of Handan. If Lingqiu is not protected, Lord Pingyuan of Handan raised his head and said forcefully: "A total of 40 troops surrounded Lingqiu City, how can I rescue him?

If Lin Qing thinks it's okay, she can lead the army by herself, and the old man has absolutely no objection! "

Lin Xiangru had nothing to say.

Mr. Pingyuan had a serious face, with obvious contempt on his face.

During the court meeting in winter, Ben Hou said that Wu Xinjun should be in command to fight against Qin. You people disagree, but Lian Po should be in charge to fight against Qi.

It's all right now, Lian Po came back after a big defeat, and you said that you were picky and picky, and you didn't dare to let you go, what a bunch of trash!The Empress Dowager coughed lightly, interrupted the quarrel, and said, "Where is Lord Wu Xin?

Where is Wu Xinjun? "

Mr. Pingyuan didn't dare to show embarrassment to the queen mother, and hurriedly said: "Calculating the time, Mr. Wu Xin should be able to return to Handan tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

The queen mother nodded and sighed: "I really hope that Wu Xinjun will come back sooner."

Zhao Kuo is already everyone's only hope!Handan, West Gate.

Compared with the extremely lively atmosphere before, the flow of people at the West Gate of Handan today is significantly less.

A carriage slowly drove into Handan from the west gate, and two officials sat on the carriage, whispering to each other.

"Have you heard?

The general was defeated in Gaotang City. "

"This matter has been spread all over the city of Handan. Didn't you see so many people leaving the city in the past few days? They all went north to flee for their lives!"

"Why is our Da Zhao the most powerful country in the world, and it failed only once?" "You know what a fart, this time the five countries joined forces to beat us, and the generals were beaten to the ground. Da Zhao lost 10,000+ brothers. Now Da Zhao The general is still surrounded by Lingqiu City, and there are 40 troops besieging the city, maybe Lingqiu City has already been breached when we speak!"

"How do you know so well?"

"Nonsense" "Oh, where is Wu Xinjun?

You said it would be great if this battle was commanded by Wu Xinjun, Wu Xinjun is the No. 1 general in the world. "

"Wu Xinjun has gone to Hedong. I heard that he was pushed away by the queen mother and the general."

"Then Wu Xinjun can come back?"

"Who knows?

May not come back. "

The two looked at each other, and they both saw endless worry on each other's faces.

After a while, one of them whispered, "Is your house ready?"

Another person said: "Yes, I will send my wife, children, and children away tonight to my mother's house in Jinyang, and I will stay alone."

The person who spoke before obviously hesitated: "The city defense of Handan is very strong. Are you too pessimistic?"

The answer to this question is a sneer: "What's the use of a strong city defense?

Who will guard it, the general?

If the general is still guarding, whether I can keep my head is a question! "

Momentary silence.

Suddenly, there was a dense sound of horseshoes, accompanied by loud shouts.

"Urgent military situation, get out of the way, out of the way!"

The two officials did not dare to neglect, and hastily ordered the driver to let the carriage to the side of the road.

A group of cavalry roared past the carriage and galloped in the direction of Handan Palace City.

Suddenly, the expression of an official on the carriage changed drastically, and he shouted, "Look, that was Wu Xinjun just now, Wu Xinjun!"

His companion was also surprised and delighted: "Wu Xinjun is back?"

The official laughed loudly and said with joy: "Jun Wu Xin is back, that's great, Da Zhao has been saved!"

The companion couldn't help but said: "Then your wife and child." The official put his hands on his hips and said loudly: "With Mr. Wu Xin here, what am I afraid of?

Don't go, stay all! "

Chapter 244 Zhao Kuo's Plan

The court discussion in the hall is still going on.

At some point, the hall fell into silence.

It happened to be a cloudy day, and there was no sunlight outside, and the hall was very lonely because of the silence, and there was no life at all.

At this moment, there was a bang from the entrance of the main hall, and everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look, and found that it was the eunuch of Zhao Guo who fell at the entrance of the hall because his steps were too hasty.

The Queen Mother's heart tightened, did something happen?

The next moment, Eunuch Ling got up in a hurry and said, "Queen Mother, Lord Wu Xin is back and is waiting to be summoned!"

The Empress Dowager's body shook, and a look of surprise appeared on her pretty face.

At this moment, she seemed to see endless bright sunshine and hope! "Quick, please come in, Mr. Wu Xin!"

Not only the queen mother, Lord Pingyuan and Lord Pingyang smiled at the same time. Lin Xiangru immediately turned his gaze to the entrance of the hall. Even Han Xuwei and Zhao Kuo did not deal with it, but at this moment he was relieved.

The haze floating around in the hall disappeared without a trace at this moment.

Wu Xinjun is back, and the backbone of Da Zhao is back!A moment later, Zhao Kuo strode into the hall and said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, I have returned under orders!"

The queen mother showed a smile on her face, and said repeatedly: "Wu Xinjun, it's good to be back, it's good to be back!"

The queen mother was still a little afraid that Zhao Kuo would procrastinate for various reasons. Once it was delayed until the Allied Forces of the Five Nations approached the city of Handan, everything would be over.

The Queen Mother almost couldn't wait to say: "Wu Xinjun, what should we do now?"

This question is also the answer that everyone most wants to know right now.

Zhao Kuo didn't answer immediately, but said: "Queen Mother, I want to see all the specific battle reports about the Gaotang War, the more detailed the better."

The Queen Mother was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately said: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and get what Wu Xinjun wants!"

After a while, several hundred kilograms of bamboo slips were moved in by several palace guards.

Zhao Kuo sat down and began to read carefully.

10 minutes passed.

Two quarters passed.

Half an hour passed.

Zhao Kuo was still watching the battle report intently, but the others couldn't sit still.

Han Xuwei coughed and said, "Well, Mr. Wu Xin, now we have to discuss how to deal with the next situation. Can you take this battle report back to read?"

Han Xuwei was old after all, and he couldn't bear this kind of sitting and kneeling for a long time, whether it was his legs, feet or back.

But those are not the most important, Han Xuwei felt that Zhao Kuo was actually losing his temper in this way, so he was hinting at Zhao Kuo: "You should have lost your temper enough, it's time to solve the problem, right? "

Zhao Kuo snorted, raised his head, and asked, "Since that's the case, then I have a few questions I want to ask the Grand Master."

Han Xuwei was taken aback for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "Just ask Mr. Wu Xin, the old man will know everything without saying anything."

Zhao Kuo asked: "Does the Taishi know the formation of the Qi army as the main force this time, what is the ratio of chariots to infantry, who are the main generals and the leading generals of each army, and what is the fighting style of the generals?"

Han Xuwei's cheeks twitched visibly, and he said, "This old man really doesn't know."

Zhao Kuo asked again: "Does the grand master know the combat characteristics and formations of Chu soldiers?

Do you know the weapons and tactics used by Korean soldiers in this battle?

Do you know the level of the army and the quality of the soldiers that Yan State, which has not been at war with us for decades, has shown in this battle? "

Han Xuwei: "" The queen mother couldn't help but said: "Mr. Wu Xin, these are military matters, and it's normal for the grand master not to know."

The implication is that these things are not your job, Zhao Kuo?

Zhao Kuo shook his head, and said very seriously: "Back to the Queen Mother, in fact, I don't know about this."

Han Xu was so angry that he almost lost his breath when he heard the words.

You don't know why you asked like a cannonball just now?

The next moment, Zhao Kuo's words made everyone suddenly realize.

I only heard Zhao Kuo say: "It is precisely because I don't know these things that I need to learn from these battle reports.

The so-called know yourself and the enemy and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. If you don't know anything about the enemies we face, how can you make a targeted plan on how to defeat them?

Therefore, I must read these battle reports first, so that I can understand Da Zhao's enemies, and then I can think of a way for Da Zhao to defeat them! "

When Han Xuwei heard the words, his face suddenly turned green and white, and he knew that he was treating the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

In fact, Zhao Kuo didn't have any selfish intention of revenge at all. He had always been for Zhao Guo.
