Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

The Queen Mother snorted, and said very unhappy: "During the Battle of Changping, Lord Wu Xin replaced Lian Po, Lord Wu Xiang. Didn't they also win?"

Zhou Shaofen said: "Has the queen mother forgotten?

Although Mr. Wu Xiang was deprived of the position of general, he still stayed in Changping as a deputy general, which stabilized the morale of the army and finally won the battle of Changping.

Now if the queen mother asks someone to replace Wu Xinjun, can the queen mother rest assured that Wu Xinjun will continue to be the deputy general? "

The queen mother was silent when she heard the words.

Zhou Shaofen was right. If Zhao Kuo was really removed, it would be absolutely impossible for the Queen Mother to allow Zhao Kuo to stay in Zhao Kuo's barracks for even one more day, let alone let Zhao Kuo stay as a lieutenant general.

Zhou Shaofen continued: "That's why I think it's better to let Wu Xinjun finish this battle first.

At the same time, let the ministers and others also send people to investigate and find out who spread these rumors.

If it was spread by Wu Xinjun's people, then after the war, it is completely possible to settle accounts with him.

In case the rumors were spread by spies from Qin, South Korea, or Wei, the Queen Mother's reckless punishment of Wu Xinjun would be fulfilling the wishes of these enemies. "

When the queen mother heard this, her face was obviously moved.

Contrary to Lin Xiangru, Zhou Shaofen adopts a different method of persuasion, which belongs to "That's right, what you said, Queen Mother, is right.

But if you do it your way, there may be a little problem.

Why don't we observe it first, and then see how to do it. "

Since this way of speaking did not argue with the queen mother, but put on an appearance of considering everything from the standpoint of the queen mother, it would be easier to get the queen mother's approval.

The queen mother was silent for a moment, and said: "Wu Xinjun is obviously your political enemy, why do you both speak for him with one voice?"

Lin Xiangru and Zhou Shaofen looked at each other, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Wait, the Empress Dowager will not suspect that we are secretly colluding with Mr. Wu Xin, right?

Lin Xiangru hurriedly said: "The queen mother has misunderstood, so the queen mother is not clear about so many struggles between the minister and Wu Xinjun?

But the minister's personal political interests are minor matters, and the interests of Da Zhao and the Queen Mother are the overall situation. How can the minister disregard the overall situation for the sake of personal small interests? "

Zhou Shaofen also said: "Empress Dowager, although there was a period of peace between Lord Wu Xin and the subject, he was indeed the benefactor of the subject, but the Queen Mother must be able to see how he treated the subject afterwards.

If it wasn't for the Empress Dowager, the minister wished for Wu Xinjun's sudden death, so how could he say even a good word for him?

I only serve Zhao Guohe and the queen mother wholeheartedly, so I ask the queen mother to learn from you! "

Looking at Lin Xiangru and Zhou Shaofen who looked panicked, the Empress Dowager's face gradually softened.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know. If people like Lin Xiangru and Zhou Shaofen really colluded with Zhao Kuo, coupled with the power of Lord Pingyuan and Lian Po, it would have been enough to easily overthrow the royal family of Zhao. Why wait until now? ?

The queen mother let out a long breath, and said lightly: "In this case, let someone check it out.

Wait until the truth comes to light and the war is over before making any calculations! "

Lin Xiangru and Zhou Shaofen breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and said in unison: "The Queen Mother is wise!"

A moment later, Lin Xiangru and Zhou Shaofen walked out of the hall side by side, and they both saw the scared expression on each other's faces.

With a bit of self-deprecation, Lin Xiangru whispered to Zhou Shaofen: "I never thought that you and I would be able to say good things for Wu Xinjun together in our lifetime, hey" Zhou Shaofen sighed, and said: "Although Junhou and I disagree with Wu Xinjun's ideas, But it was all for Da Zhao.

If we and Wu Xinjun were only fighting each other for our own interests, how could it be possible for Da Zhao to be as strong as he is today? "

Lin Xiangru nodded and said, "Yes.

In fact, the old man is also very clear, if it is the old man who is suspected and Wu Xinjun is standing in the hall, then Wu Xinjun will definitely speak for the old man.

In the final analysis, everyone is for Da Zhao. "

Zhou Shaofen nodded, and said softly: "I still think that this matter may be framed by someone. We'd better go back to the house and arrange an investigation."

That night, a figure from Zhou Shaofen's mansion quietly entered Zhao Kuo's Wu Xinjun mansion.

Early the next morning, as soon as the city gate of Handan was opened, an envoy from Lord Wu Xin's mansion rode out and galloped towards the Pingqiu battlefield in the south.

Chapter 372 Zhao Kuo's Response, Li Mu's Surprise Attack (9/35)

Pingqiu City, Zhao Jun's new headquarters.

Zhao Kuo looked at the urgent report from Handan Nightingale headquarters in front of him, and a smile appeared on his face: "The Queen Mother is interesting, really interesting."

Standing in front of Zhao Kuo, Xu Li said worriedly, "Your Majesty, our plan has not been discovered by the Queen Mother, has it?"

Zhao Kuo chuckled and said, "Discover?

impossible. "

When he said this, Zhao Kuo was full of confidence.

Everything Zhao Kuo is doing now, whether it is Guo Zong's business channels, Xu Li's Nightingale, Li Mu's Chi Youjun, etc., the goal is ultimately to make Zhao Guo stronger.

There are actually only five people who can really expose Zhao Kuo's thoughts, namely Xu Li, Guo Zong, Li Mu, Li Si and Han Fei.

Lu Buwei can be regarded as an insider, but Lu Buwei's identity as Prince Fu of the Qin Kingdom is there. Who will believe what he says?

And Mao Sui was watching.

It's not just that Lu Buwei is being watched, in fact, Zhao Kuo's five confidants are also being watched by dead soldiers directly under Zhao Kuo, just in case!Zhao Kuo didn't want to see any accidents happen to him after reliving his life.

Zhao Kuo said lightly: "This time, it should be just like what the Qing said, it was just someone spreading rumors in Handan, and they just wanted to make a divorce.

As for who this person is?" Although there is no clear evidence, Zhao Kuo can almost insist on this familiar feeling. It is definitely that old boy Jihou who didn't run away! It seems that King Qin is really anxious this time. All the tricks of the underworld have been used.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly: "Uncle Xu, you should go back to Handan right away and say hello to our old acquaintance."

In the Central Plains, plains are naturally indispensable.

Between Pingqiu and Daliang, the capital of Wei State, is this kind of plain terrain with a very wide view.

Apart from the dense forest on both sides of the road, there are lush grasslands, and a village will appear every ten miles, which is very densely populated.

A long team came from the southwest to the road and headed southeast.

This team consisted of thousands of carts pulled by horses, oxen, donkeys and other animals. Each cart was escorted by a small group of Wei soldiers. The total number was at least three or four thousand.

In addition to the coachman and the soldiers of the Wei army, there were thousands of laborers carrying food at the end of the convoy, struggling to follow the pace of the large team.

This is the Wei army unit responsible for transporting military rations to the front line, and it is also the only unit left in Wei State that can leave Daliang City.

The general of the Wei army was named Lu Yu. Although the name sounded a bit unmasculine, the owner of the name had a beard and a tall and strong figure.

Lu Yu was in a very bad mood, which could be heard from the unspeakable words that kept coming out of his mouth.

"Trash, go faster! It's because there are too many trash like you that Wei lost to the Zhao people in Pingqiu City, and he suffered a defeat!"

"Didn't you eat?

Could it be that the food that the general gave you all went into the hut?

Hurry up, whether you are a human or a dog, you seem to be crawling at the same speed as a turtle! "

Along with the sound of shouting and cursing, there was also a ruthless whip. Lu Yu got up to scold, and directly hit a Lifu in front of him with a whip.

Lu Yu's whip was very heavy, and when it was whipped down, those men who were already overwhelmed with carrying heavy food would often be knocked down to the ground, and the food on their bodies would be dumped at the same time, and this would naturally attract Lu Yu's yelling and scolding again. The whip whipped even harder.

Many officers and soldiers of the Wei army passed by here, but none of them offered a helping hand to Lifu who was beaten violently. Instead, a few officers laughed and said, "General, today's whip seems to have no strength. Is it the village yesterday?" The two peasant women are not strong enough?"

Lu Yu laughed loudly, and cursed with a smile: "Don't say it's two peasant women, even if there are two more, the general will take care of them all together!"

Having said that, the whip in Lu Yu's hand was obviously getting harder.

As the whips fell one after another, Lifu's body was quickly drawn out with bloody mouths, and the blood flowed out, and finally he remained motionless, and he was beaten to death by Lu Yu.

The expression on Lu Yu's face, who beat Li Fu to death, didn't change at all, instead he sneered: "It's really a useless thing, if you can't hold on to fifty lashes, you die, what are you still doing?

Load all his food into the car and continue on the road!Anyone who slows down again will be the end of this idiot! "

Under Lu Yu's scolding, all the strengths were silent, and when they passed by Lu Yu's side, they all speeded up their pace in unison.

This feeling immediately satisfied Lu Yu greatly, and he laughed haha: "Yes, that's it.

Faster, faster, you idiots.

This is how you humble lives are, accept your fate, hahaha! "

At this moment, Lu Yu seemed to hear something, and raised his head subconsciously.

On the distant horizon, billows of smoke suddenly appeared.

"what is that?"

Lu Yu muttered to himself with some doubts.

The smoke that covered the sky and the sun was still approaching, and soon Lu Yu could see clearly what it was.

Countless cavalry are swarming over, and a red flag is fluttering in the wind in front of these cavalry.

Lu Yu was so shocked that he almost fell off his horse.

"The Zhao State cavalry, it is the Zhao State cavalry!"

It was the cavalry led by General Li Mu of Zhao Guowu Xinjun who arrived!When Lu Yu called out, the whole convoy was thrown into chaos.

Whether it was Li Fu or the coachman, whether it was an ordinary soldier of the Wei Army or an officer or even a general like Lu Yu, they all made the same decision at this moment.

escape!If it is Qin Jun or Han Jun, they may still resist.

But Wei Jun is different.

When the news of the annihilation of Lord Xinling's army in Pingqiu City came, the courage of the Wei people was completely gone.

Now that Wei Jun met Zhao Jun, he only hated his parents for losing two legs.

In fact, these Wei people did lose two legs.

Zhao Guo's [-] cavalry swept in at an extremely fast speed, drowning all the fleeing Wei troops in an instant.

"Kill all those in armor, leave no one behind!"

The battle ended very quickly, and after only a quarter of an hour, many of the [-] Wei army soldiers who fled were all shot dead by Zhao Jun.

As the general leading the army of the Wei army, Lu Yu was completely different from others in wearing general armor, so he also received completely different treatment from the Zhao army.

One of Zhao Guobai's generals presented Lu Yu's head in front of Li Mu respectfully: "General, this is the head of the Wei army's general responsible for transporting grain and grass."

Until the moment of death, the panic and fear on Lu Yu's face did not dissipate, and his face was extremely distorted and frightening.

Li Mu looked at Lu Yu's head, casually hung Lu Yu's head next to his saddle, then looked up at the thousands of grain trucks abandoned by the Wei army in front of him, and smiled.

"Proceed with the order, everyone should bring as much dry food as possible, and then bring all the horses. As for the remaining food and vehicles, all will be burned, and the other livestock will be released on the spot!"

The smoothness of this raid was simply beyond Li Mu's imagination!

Chapter 373 Full of confidence, a bolt from the blue (10/35)

Langya City.

General Kuang Liang of the Qi Kingdom stood outside the camp of the Qi Army, watching the city, and let out a sigh of emotion.

"It is said that Langya City is the most affluent place in the eastern part of the Chu Kingdom, and now it seems that it is true."

As the saying goes, you can know the whole leopard from a glimpse, just the aura brought by the tall and majestic city wall of Langya City and the city wall stretching for tens of miles, it is no longer comparable to those ordinary cities.

After all, this is also the capital of the Yue State that once dominated the period of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Beside Kuangliang, more than a dozen generals of the Qi army stood on the chariots, and someone couldn't help laughing: "Great Sima, if we can defeat the Chu army and take Langya City this time, it will definitely be a big deal for us Da Qi." Good."

"Yes, yes, Langya City is so rich that it can replace Jucheng as the capital guarding the south."

"Nonsense! The status of Ju City is so important, how can it be compared with Langya City?"

Kuang Liang couldn't help laughing when he heard the arguments of these generals of the Qi army, and waved his hands: "Okay, don't talk about it, let's think about how to defeat the Chu army first."

Kuang Liang's gaze turned to a place about five miles west of Langya City, where a large camp of the Chu army was rising up from the ground, forming a corner with Langya City. .

Chun Shenjun is holding a military meeting full of confidence.

"Everyone, this time the people of Qi dare to invade our Great Chu, we must teach them a profound lesson, let them know that our Great Chu is not easy to mess with!"

In front of Chun Shenjun, many Chu generals looked at each other.

Li Yuan asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you mean to start a full-scale war with Qi?"

Chun Shenjun's face straightened, and he said very seriously: "That's natural! If you don't teach the Qi people a lesson, and they will invade again and again in the future, will it be true that Da Chu will definitely waste his troops and Qi's entanglement?" fight?

We must beat the people of Qi once and for all, so that we can better maintain the peace of the northeastern border of Dachu and Langya city! "
