Han Xuwei felt like a clown!The Empress Dowager sighed, and said, "Then what can Mr. Wu Xin do now?"

Zhao Kuo said: "I do have some ideas."

After reading the battle report for so long, Zhao Kuo has indeed understood the situation and has a complete set of solutions.

The Empress Dowager immediately lifted her spirits, and said, "Mr. Wu Xin, come quickly!"

Zhao Kuo said lightly; "First of all, we don't need to pay attention to Qin State at all, because Qin State will definitely not send troops!"

After Zhao Kuo's words fell, everyone's expressions changed suddenly, and they all felt a little unbelievable.

Lin Xiangru couldn't help but said: "Mr. Wu Xin, wouldn't Qin take advantage of it?"

Zhao Kuo laughed: "Xinjun, haven't you suffered enough? Did I make any mistakes in judgment during this war?"

Lin Xiangru's expression changed, and he chose to remain silent.

Although he really wanted to refute, what Zhao Kuo said was the truth, and his judgment did not make any mistakes!Seeing this, the Queen Mother could only grit her teeth and said, "Okay, then follow what Lord Wu Xin said, and let the envoy go to Qin immediately!"

After the Empress Dowager gave the order, Mr. Pingyuan asked, "Mr. Wu Xin, the state of Qin has been settled, what about Lingqiu?"

Even if Qin State really sent troops to attack Zhao State, with the two counties of Hedong and Shangdang as a buffer, the Qin army would not pose any threat to Handan in a short period of time. !Zhao Kuo asked, "How many soldiers and horses can I mobilize within seven days?"

This number has obviously been thought of many times in Mr. Pingyuan's mind, and immediately said: "Within seven days, [-] reinforcements from other places will arrive, plus the original [-] soldiers and horses in Handan City. One hundred thousand soldiers and horses can be transferred to your command."

There are actually quite a few soldiers and horses in Zhao State, and the mobilization efficiency is not low, but there is a very unfavorable geographical condition that Taihang Mountain is located in the middle of Zhao State's territory, which directly divides Zhao State into the northern grassland, the west east of Jinyang, and the east The three major blocks of Zhongshan in Handan will greatly affect the speed of Zhao's temporary troop mobilization.

The number of [-] soldiers and horses is actually quite a lot, but Zhao Guojun and his ministers in the hall did not show any joy when they heard this number.

The five-nation coalition forces that surrounded Lingqiu originally had as many as 48 people, but after the victory, King Qi took the initiative to mobilize 8 people to return home.

Even so, there are now a total of 40 enemies outside Lingqiu City, which is four times the [-] soldiers and horses that Zhao Kuo can obtain!However, the next moment, Zhao Kuo's answer shocked everyone again.

"Very well, then Lord Pingyuan and Lord Xin please worry about it. All the food and supplies must be assembled within seven days. After seven days, I will lead the [-] soldiers and horses to set off to reinforce Lingqiu City!"

Chapter 245 This Plan Sounds Unreliable

Since Zhao Kuo stepped into the hall, it can be said that every word he said was beyond everyone's expectations, and this sentence is also the same.

Han Xuwei said subconsciously: "Send troops?

Not so good. "

One hundred thousand against 40, this is simply a dead end, even if Zhao Kuo is the leader, Han Xuwei doesn't think Zhao Kuo can win this time.

Based on the grievances between Han Xuwei and Zhao Kuo, if the time and battlefield were changed, Han Xuwei might be happy to agree to Zhao Kuo's stupid request and watch Zhao Kuo die, but now Zhao Kuo is going to take Handan Among them, the [-] defenders went to rescue Lianpo, which had a different meaning.

Once Zhao Kuo fails, not only Zhao Kuo and Lian Po will die, but Handan City, which has completely lost its defense, will be breached overnight. Think about the safety of your family.

Although the others didn't speak, they probably had the same thoughts as Han Xuwei from their expressions.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager hesitated again, and said, "Mr. Wu Xin, do you think this matter should be discussed?"

Zhao Kuo looked at the Queen Mother seriously, and said, "Queen Mother, Da Zhao has already lost 12 elite troops, and we can no longer lose the [-] soldiers and horses in Lingqiu City!"

Zhao Kuo's tone was very positive and powerful.

The reason why Zhao Kuo wanted to send troops to rescue so quickly was of course not to save Lian Po.

When Zhao Kuo heard the figure of 12 battle damage, he wished to slap Lian Po a few big ears, and then take off Lian Po's head.

That's a full 12 elite soldiers of Zhao State!But the dead are already dead, it is useless to say anything at this time, the key is to rescue the [-] soldiers in Lingqiu City.

Although Lingqiu City is fortified, how long can the [-] defeated soldiers last?

Therefore, it must be fast, otherwise the 8 people will be wiped out in Lingqiu City sooner or later.

Zhao Kuo said in a deep voice: "The queen mother can be trusted more than a minister?

If you can believe it, please give me troops and horses, and let me go to Lingqiu for rescue. "

The atmosphere was stalemate for a while, the queen mother's face kept flashing, she looked at Zhao Kuo and Han Xuwei, very hesitant and unable to make a decision.

Mr. Pingyuan coughed and said, "Mr. Wu Xin, after all, you are going to take away the last defense force in Handan City. You must give us a plan to make everyone feel at ease."

Zhao Kuo nodded and said: "The plan is actually very simple, but there must be people who don't believe it when I say it, so I didn't want to say it just now."

The empress dowager, who was in a tangle, hurriedly said: "Wu Xinjun, please tell me, let the old lady also refer to it."

Zhao Kuo said: "In fact, the plan is also very simple, that is to find ways to win over and divide these coalition forces.

Qi and Chu are the main targets. As long as these two countries are willing to retreat, other countries will naturally retreat without attacking! "

When Zhao Kuo said the words, the expressions of the others changed as expected.

Han Xuwei said in disbelief, "Chu and Qi will retreat first?"

Both Chu State and Qi State were the overlords of the past. The main fighters in the two countries will definitely want to restore the glory of the former overlords, and defeating Zhao State and attacking Handan is definitely the most important prerequisite for restoring the hegemony. Han Xuwei is true I don't think these two countries will do this.

Zhao Kuo shrugged his shoulders, and showed everyone a look of "Look, I knew you would doubt it".

But when answering Han Xuwei's words, Zhao Kuo's voice was obviously much colder, and could even be called sharp: "Master, the queen mother has said just now that you are not good at this military field, so please be quiet." Just listen, don't question Ben Hou, a professional!"

These were the words that the queen mother used to save Han Xuwei's face just now. At this moment, Zhao Kuo took it out and slapped Han Xuwei on the face again, which made Han Xuwei speechless.

Zhao Kuo turned his head to look at the queen mother seriously, and said: "Queen mother, I know that Da Zhao is in danger now, and I also know that the queen mother has concerns, but what I do now is for Da Zhao! If the queen mother is unwilling to believe what I say, then Why call me back from Hedong County?"

After Zhao Kuo's words fell, the hearts of the monarchs and ministers in the hall thumped, and the expressions on their faces became dignified at the same time.

Zhao Kuo's words are almost equivalent to expressly expressing that since you want to rely on me to save Zhao Guo, then you should agree to my method unconditionally, instead of hesitating and entangled here.

The Empress Dowager took a deep breath and said with a reluctant smile: "The old lady is a little tired, let's end today's court meeting."

Everyone left in twos and threes.

Lord Pingyuan caught up with Zhao Kuo, and said softly, "The Queen Mother is not responsible for this battle. You shouldn't force the Queen Mother like this."

Zhao Kuo still respects Mr. Pingyuan very much on weekdays, but this time is an exception.

Zhao Kuo said expressionlessly, "Your Majesty's words are wrong.

Da Zhao made a mistake that cost 12 lives because of Gaotang's defeat, and this mistake could have been avoided!If the Queen Mother is not responsible, Lian Po is not responsible, and Han Xuwei is not responsible, then who should be responsible? Is it the 12 Zhao soldiers who died in vain? "

Mr. Pingyuan was speechless.

Zhao Kuo breathed a sigh of relief, and said lightly: "I originally thought that Lian Po was a famous general after all, and after I reminded him, no matter how lightly he took it, he wouldn't be able to lose anywhere.

As for me, if I continued to speak at that time, everyone would think that I was in love with military power, so I didn't say anything.

But what about the result?

12 Zhao Jingrui, Lord Pingyuan.

This kind of failure could have been avoided, because of this stupid political struggle, stupid intrigue!I've had enough, understand? "

After saying these words, Zhao Kuo left without looking back, leaving Mr. Pingyuan standing there alone in a daze.

Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao, who was listening to the entire conversation behind the two, came up and said angrily, "This Wu Xin Jun is too rude. We are on his side, but he blames brother instead!"

Mr. Pingyuan was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Actually, he is right. In the face of such a failure, Han Xuwei and Lian Po are certainly sinners, but why not us and the Queen Mother?"

Jun Pingyang subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but found that he couldn't say anything.

Mr. Pingyuan waved his hand and said flatly: "Okay.

Tomorrow, let our people come forward to impeach Lian Po's crime of defeat and Han Xuwei and Lin Xiangru's crime of dereliction of duty.

Zhao Kuo may be young and vigorous, but he is right in saying that the ghosts of the 12 soldiers of the Great Zhao are watching us, and we must give them an explanation! "

Chapter 246 The Worries of the Empress Dowager Zhao and King Qin

The queen mother returned to the harem with a very gloomy expression.

Everyone could see that the Empress Dowager's complexion was not good, so they were doing things cautiously.

However, it was this kind of caution that made it easier for people to make mistakes. With a bang, a court lady who was serving dishes in her hand dropped the plate on the ground, and the delicacies on the plate spilled all over the floor.

Everyone seemed to freeze at once.

The empress dowager's phoenix eyes suddenly wrinkled, and said coldly: "Drag out and beat twenty sticks."

After a while, the screams began to sound and then stopped quickly. It is not known whether he was knocked out or directly killed.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and then the cheerful voice of Little Zhao Wang: "Mother, mother!"

After hearing the voice of Little Zhao Wang, the Queen Mother's originally gloomy face suddenly became more relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face for the first time: "Son, why are you here?"

Little Zhao Wang said: "Has the queen mother forgotten?

It's time to eat now. "

The Empress Dowager suddenly came to a sudden, and immediately yelled at the palace people around her: "What are you waiting for, don't hurry up and serve all the dishes!"

Soon, a table of delicacies from mountains and seas was served.

However, the Empress Dowager didn't have any appetite in the face of so many delicacies, so she ate a few chopsticks hastily and then put down the chopsticks.

Little King Zhao looked at the queen mother with some doubts, and said, "Is there something on your mind?"

The queen mother sighed, looking at the little King Zhao who looked like an adult, she couldn't help feeling a pain in her heart.

The kid's intelligence is really like his father.

The Empress Dowager waved her hand suddenly, and all the palace attendants retreated knowingly.

The queen mother said slowly, "Son, do you think Mr. Wu Xin is really reliable?"

Little Zhao Wang thought for a while, and said very seriously: "Is the queen mother worried about the war in front of me?"

The queen mother sighed, and said: "Wu Xinjun proposed a solution, but the queen mother doesn't know whether she should believe him or not."

Zhao Wang is actually a seven-year-old child, but at this moment the queen mother, who is physically and mentally exhausted, chose to confide to her only relative.

Little Wang Zhao listened to the Queen Mother's words quietly, and suddenly asked the Queen Mother: "Does the Queen Mother have any other choices now?"

The queen mother was taken aback when she heard the words, and then laughed at herself: "Yes, is there any other choice now?"

The queen mother nodded vigorously, suddenly picked up Xiao Wang, and kissed him vigorously.

This sudden intimacy made Little Zhao Wang feel a little overwhelmed.

The Empress Dowager's mood improved all of a sudden, she laughed and said, "Good son, the Empress Dowager knows what to do."

Xianyang City Palace, the capital of Qin State.

The King of Qin summoned many ministers and said with a very serious face: "Everyone, Zhao Guo has just lost in the battle of Gaotang, and the Allied Forces of the Five Kingdoms have invaded the territory of Zhao Guo. What should Da Qin do now?"

Although Qin State had indeed made a decision not to participate in the wars of the Eastern countries for the time being before this, it was based on the judgment that Zhao State had a great possibility of victory.

Today's Zhao State unexpectedly suffered a big defeat in the battle of Gaotang, which undoubtedly made King Qin feel that maybe it is time to consider whether to change Qin State's strategy in this war.

As soon as the words of the King of Qin fell, Fan Sui, Prime Minister of Qin State, immediately said: "Your Majesty, Zhao State has suffered a big defeat in Gaotang, and the Allied Forces of the Five Kingdoms are besieging Zhao State. crisis of extinction.

The minister felt that it was indeed time to attack Zhao Guo and recover Hedong County. "

Fan Sui said this sentence, but not many people echoed it.

People turned their attention to Crown Prince Yingzi Chu sitting on the lower head of King Qin, opposite to Fan Sui.

The reason is also very simple, because at the beginning, the decision of Qin State to recuperate and recuperate was made under the strong advocacy of the Qin State Prince.

Now Fan Sui's proposal to attack Zhao Guo is undoubtedly completely contrary to Ying Zichu's previous thinking.

Ying Zichu looked at Fan Sui, but he was thinking about the conversation he had with Lu Buwei before going to court this time.

Ying Zichu already knew the news that Zhao Guo was defeated in the Battle of Gaotang last night. After knowing the news, Ying Zichu immediately asked Lu Buwei to question Lu Buwei.

"Sir, you kept saying that it was the best choice not to attack Zhao Guo at that time, but now Zhao Guo was defeated in the battle of Gaotang. How can I explain this result to my father and the ministers tomorrow? ?”

Ying Zichu's words revealed very obvious dissatisfaction.

Lu Buwei said to Ying Zichu calmly, "Prince, in fact, Zhao's defeat is not the prince's defeat."

Ying Zichu was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked Lu Buwei, "Why would you say that, sir?"

Lu Buwei answered and convinced Ying Zichu.

And Ying Zichu will now use this answer to convince Fan Sui, King Qin, and many Qin ministers.

Only Ying Zichu said indifferently: "Father, I still feel that this is not the best time to attack Zhao, and Daqin should continue to stick to the previous policy of recuperation."

King Qin frowned immediately when he heard the words, and said lightly: "What reason do you have this time?"

Ying Zichu smiled, and said confidently: "The reason this time is very simple, because the person who lost in the battle of Gaotang was Zhao Guo's general Lian Po, not Zhao Guowu Xinjun Zhao Kuo! Father please think about it, didn't Da Qin defeat Lian Po before?
