Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Zhao Kuo didn't mind at all that a virtuous official named Zhao Zheng appeared in the Huaxia Dynasty he established.

Zhao Kuo is not worried that Zhao Zheng will become that man in history, because Zhao Zheng no longer has that chance!I, Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, am a time traveler!In the following months, the situation in China was unexpectedly calm.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is mainly because Zhao Guo did not continue to fight.

As the most powerful country in the world today, as long as Zhao country does not move, other countries will not dare to act rashly.

So when the new year's day arrived and the Zhao Kingdom's great court meeting ended, the monarchs of various countries began to cheer up 12 points, and the spies of various countries in the Zhao Kingdom also began to be extraordinarily active.

Everyone wants to know one thing, that is, will Zhao Guo continue to wage war next year, and if so, which country Zhao Guo will wage war against?

This is a major event related to the direction of the entire continent. Whoever can control this situation as soon as possible will be able to gain the upper hand in the next changes in the situation.

Lin Xiangru called Lian Po, Zhou Shaofen and Han Xuwei to discuss it.

Every time troops are dispatched, it is the best opportunity for the two factions in the political arena of Zhao to compete for the right to speak in the country's great politics.

Whoever can persuade the queen mother can win the position of chief general and take the lead in the war as a matter of course.

In the past few years, Lin Xiangru was on the losing side, so this time Lin Xiangru wanted to fight for it and regain the initiative.

Lin Xiangru said, "What's your opinion?

Now we can sum it all up, let's unify our tone first, and then we will be able to fight against Wu Xinjun and others in the court. "

Among the four, three including Lin Xiangru set their sights on Lian Po at the same time.

In terms of military ability, Lian Po is undoubtedly the most professional person.

Unexpectedly, Lian Po gave a surprising answer: "I have no objection."

Lin Xiangru was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Why did Mr. Wu Xiang say that?"

Lian Po said lightly: "I think it's fine to attack any country."

When Lian Po said this, the other three were immediately speechless.

Lin Xiangru's gaze flickered for a moment, and he sensed the truth behind it: "Mr. Wu Xiangru, don't you have no confidence?"

Lian Po was silent.

Speaking of which, Lian Po has indeed lost a lot in the past few years, especially the battle of Gaotang dealt a severe blow to Lian Po, so that he did not recover after so long.

The lives of 10,000+ soldiers were ruined because of their own mistakes. This kind of pressure is really beyond the comprehension of others.

And this is not the first time Lian Po has failed. He also had a big defeat when facing Bai Qi before.

Everyone thought that Lian Po had recovered after such a long time, but it was only when the war was about to be fought that he realized that he hadn't.

Han Xuwei said rather displeasedly: "Mr. Wu Xiang, you are boring like this.

If you don't even have the confidence to command the battle, what's the use of us recommending you to the position of chief general?

It's better not to plan directly. "

Lian Po remained silent.

After Lin Xiangru heard this sentence, his heart was moved, and he blurted out: "It seems that it is indeed possible!"

Han Xuwei was stunned, and looked at Lin Xiangru suspiciously: "What can I do?"

Lin Xiangru smiled and said, "We can suggest that Da Zhao still needs a year of recuperation."

Han Xuwei looked at Lin Xiangru, then at Lian Po, and said, "This is okay?"

Lin Xiangru smiled and said, "Of course it's okay.

On the one hand, it can relieve Lord Wu Xiang's psychological pressure. On the other hand, the one-year recuperation can also dilute the great prestige of Lord Wu Xin Zhao Kuo in Da Zhao to a certain extent. "

Han Xuwei was a little speechless, and it took a while before he said, "Are we already so aggrieved when we face that kid Zhao Kuo?"

Lian Po took a deep breath, and said seriously: "Everyone, I assure you, this time next year, I will definitely regain my strength."

Looking at the determined Lian Po, Han Xuwei didn't quite believe it.

If you can really revive yourself, why don't you revive now?

But now Han Xuwei had no other good solution, he could only sigh and said, "Then let's do this."

The first court meeting after the Great Court Meeting was held.

Zhao Kuo got off the carriage, looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky, and couldn't help expressing emotion: "This year's snow is quite heavy."

Compared with the previous few years, the days of heavy snowfall in Zhao country this winter are significantly more than in previous years, and the amount of snowfall has naturally increased.

If it is in later generations, it is inevitable to express the emotion of "auspicious snow heralds a good year", but in this era, it is unknown how many people will die of cold and hunger.

We still have to get through the Western Regions as soon as possible and find cotton!With such emotions, Zhao Kuo climbed up the steps and walked towards the main hall step by step.

In order to keep out the cold, a stove was also set up in the main hall, and the smoke kept coming out, but because everyone was concerned about their demeanor and couldn't get together to enjoy the fire, the effect last year was quite limited.

The Empress Dowager said: "Masters, please come and express your opinions on the events after the spring of this year."

Winter is the first season of the year in this era, so the Queen Mother is not wrong to say "this year".

Han Xuwei said without hesitation: "Queen Mother, the veteran thinks that this year should be the same as last year, and continue to maintain the strategy of recuperation."

The reason why it is said that last year was also recuperating is because Zhao Guo only used the cavalry corps that rarely participated in the Central Plains War in last year's "Ginseng War". The main infantry in the Central Plains did have a good rest for a year. time.

Lin Xiangru also agreed: "Queen Mother, the veteran also feels that he needs to continue to cultivate for a while, after all, Da Zhao has had enough wars in the past few years."

The queen mother listened to these words, but did not express her opinion immediately.

Because she knew that Mr. Pingyuan and Zhao Kuo must have something to say.

Sure enough, the next moment, Zhao Kuo spoke.

"Empress Dowager, I think a year of recuperation is enough for the main army of Da Zhao.

It is said that the state of Qin is ready to move around these days and wants to collude with other countries to form an alliance against Zhao. I feel that it is time to join forces with Chu and other countries to crusade against Qin and teach Qin a lesson! "

Chapter 346 Wu Xinjun, you are talking nonsense!

After Zhao Kuo's voice fell, Han Xuwei frowned, and said: "Wu Xinjun, don't you always think about resorting to war, and even fabricate some inexplicable information for this, okay?

Qin Guo has been beaten so many times by our Da Zhao, and he can't hold his head up for a long time. How could he dare to provoke or even start a war with Da Zhao? "

After many struggles with Zhao Kuo, Han Xuwei's experience is obviously quite rich now.

Now he no longer questioned Zhao Kuo from a military point of view, because that was completely Zhao Kuo's world, and Han Xuwei couldn't argue with Zhao Kuo at all.

It is necessary to find another way to find loopholes in Zhao Kuo's words, so that it is possible to win.

Zhao Kuo sighed, and looked at Han Xuwei with pity: "Grand Master, Grand Master, is your news so incomprehensible?

Benhou remembers that you are in charge of Da Zhao's intelligence department, you are dereliction of duty! "

Generally speaking, the position of Grand Master is an honorary position, and it will be awarded to those veterans who have retired to the second line, basically without any real power.

But Han Xuwei was an exception, because when the queen mother called him back, there were no vacancies for all the important ministers of Zhao State, so Han Xuwei could only be given the position of Grand Master, so that Han Xuwei could reasonably participate in the great politics of Zhao State. middle.

But having a position requires power. After a period of trial and adjustment, the queen mother finally decided to let Han Xuwei lead Zhao's diplomacy, and at the same time handed over Zhao's spy agency to Han Xuwei.

Han Xuwei became anxious when he heard this, and said angrily: "Who said the old man has neglected his duty?

It is obviously you, Wu Xinjun, who fabricated the facts out of nowhere, what does it have to do with the old man!The old man's subordinates are all very dedicated! "

The atmosphere in the hall became tense because of the dispute between the two.

The queen mother thought for a while, and said: "Okay, you all stop arguing.

Wu Xinjun, the old woman asks you, where did you get the news from? "

When asking this sentence, the queen mother was actually a little wary.

Zhao Kuo said without hesitation: "Going back to the Queen Mother, the ginseng teams of Wei, Chu, and Qi obtained information when they were active in these countries, and then submitted it to the minister, who found it after collecting and analyzing it."

Businessmen have always been one of the best ways for spies to conceal their identities, especially the channels of ginseng business, which can also make frequent contacts with high-level officials in other countries. Zhao Kuo naturally wants to use this channel.

In fact, the spies in the ginseng channel are all from Nightingale under Zhao Kuo's command, and the information was also obtained by Nightingale. Zhao Kuo just said that just because he didn't want the Queen Mother to notice that Zhao Kuo already had an intelligence system. Zhao Guo's intelligence system is more powerful.

The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "I see.

If Qin really colluded with other countries to attack Da Zhao, it would indeed be a troublesome matter. "

The queen mother still remembers how she lost in the battle of Gaotang last year.

It was because of the sudden rebellion between Han and Wei that Zhao Guo suddenly changed from three against three to one against five, and finally was outnumbered and defeated.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager was instinctively very vigilant about other countries uniting against Zhao.

But this would undoubtedly deny Han Xuwei's words, so Han Xuwei immediately said: "Queen Mother, I don't know if this matter is true, so I can't make a conclusion so quickly."

Zhao Kuo glanced at Han Xuwei, shook his head and said, "Teacher, you are really not a person who knows how to engage in intelligence. I think that when your incompetent subordinates really notice the things of Qin State, I am afraid that the people of Qin State will attack you." Coming to the door!"

This preemption made Han Xuwei furious, and said angrily: "Mr. Wu Xin, do you really think you are omnipotent?

When it comes to military affairs, this old man may not be as good as you, but in terms of intelligence, who said that my subordinates are inferior to those businessmen under yours? "

The Empress Dowager coughed heavily, stopped the quarrel between the two of them again, and said, "Let's do it.

First send envoys to various countries, say that our Da Zhao is going to attack Qin, and see what the other countries say.

Grand Master, during this period of time, you try to figure out whether what Wu Xinjun said is true or not.

Wu Xinjun, you also present the evidence of your subordinates.

In this way, when the envoy returns and the Grand Master's investigation is over, everything will naturally come to light. "

Zhao Kuo and Han Xuwei looked at each other and said in unison: "I will obey the Queen Mother's order!"

As soon as Zhao Kuo walked out of the palace, Lord Pingyuan followed.

"Wu Xinjun, tell the truth to the old man, are you deliberately digging a hole for the Grand Master to jump this time?"

Looking at Mr. Pingyuan with a vigilant face, Zhao Kuo couldn't help laughing: "What did Mr. Pingyuan say?

This time, it was Han Xu who took the initiative to argue with Ben Hou on his behalf, and it really had nothing to do with Ben Hou. "

Mr. Pingyuan snorted, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Is it true that Qin secretly contacted other countries?"

Zhao Kuo also replied in a low voice: "Of course it is true.

It's a matter of national importance, how could I lie in front of the Queen Mother and Zhu Qing? "

Mr. Pingyuan took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Pingyuan is the brother-in-law of this old man, yet he didn't even say anything to this old man?"

Zhao Kuo laughed and said, "Mr. Xinling is a minister of the Wei Kingdom after all, so of course we must act in the interests of the Wei Kingdom."

Mr. Pingyuan looked at Zhao Kuo in surprise: "Does Mr. Wu Xin think that Wei's interest is to fight against Zhao?"

Zhao Kuo nodded and said, "Indeed.

If Wei Guo does not fight against Da Zhao, it will almost be a dead end. "

Mr. Pingyuan was silent for a moment, and said, "Then Mr. Wu Xin, do you think our Great Zhao has any hope of winning?"

Zhao Kuo said: "It's hard to say if you are passively beaten, but if you take the initiative, I think there is a great possibility that you can win."

Mr. Pingyuan nodded and said: "Understood, the old man will support you.

Is there anything else the old man needs to do? "

Unknowingly, Mr. Pingyuan has paid more attention to Zhao Kuo's opinion.

Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said with a smile: "No need, please just wait until the truth comes out."

When Zhao Kuo said this, he had absolute confidence on his face.

On the other side, Han Xuwei returned to the mansion with a gloomy expression: "Quick, go and find everyone!"

Half a day later, six intelligence officials from Zhao State appeared in front of Han Xuwei, respectful.

The six intelligence officers were each responsible for a different country.

Han Xuwei said coldly, "Has there been any changes in other countries recently?"

The six intelligence officials looked at each other, shook their heads, and said in unison: "There is nothing unusual about returning to Grand Master."

With a bang, Han Xuwei suddenly slapped the table.

"Everyone said there was no change, so why did Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo say so clearly at the court meeting today, saying that Qin State has colluded with South Korea, Wei State and other countries, and is going to be unfavorable to my great Zhao?"

Chapter 347 Grand Master Mingjian, there is no such thing at all
