Lord Xinling's reaction was not beyond Zhao Kuo's expectations.
Although Mr. Xinling is only a prince of the Wei Kingdom, not the King of Wei himself, the loyalty of this prince to the Kingdom of Wei far exceeds that of the King of Wei.
Looking at Lord Xinling's corpse, Zhao Kuo sighed, and said, "Contain the corpse well and bury it generously."
Zhao Kuo was moved by Lord Xinling's heroic sacrifice.
Everyone who loves their country is worthy of respect.
But it is a pity that Mr. Xinling may be the last person who is willing to sacrifice for Wei.
At this moment, Zhao Guo's army has completely controlled the entire Daliang City. All the soldiers of the Wei Army in the Daliang City were either beheaded to death, or they had already chosen to surrender.
Although there are still soaring flames in the city, the battle is actually over.
Zhao Kuo looked at Daliang City in front of him, and a gleam of joy slowly emerged in his heart.
Two of the other six countries have now been wiped out, so will it be far away when the remaining four countries will perish?
Zhao Kuo said to Xu Li who was beside him, "Now you can send someone to Handan to tell the king the good news."
Zhao Kuo believed that King Zhao would be very happy.
Two days later.
In the Palace of King Zhao in Handan, King Zhao was talking to Concubine Li.
"My dear concubine, that Lian Po has already been caught.
Now the Qin people use Lian Po as a bargaining chip to negotiate peace with the widow, which makes the widow a little passive. "
From a rational point of view, after all, Lian Po is the general of Zhao State and the number one figure in Zhao State's military.
If Zhao Wang just disregarded Lian Po's life and death and spread the news, it would be quite detrimental to Zhao Wang's reputation.
Concubine Li obviously understood this, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I feel that although Lian Po is indeed a relatively important minister in our Zhao Kingdom, if Lian Po's life is exchanged for the entire Xihe County in the east of Guanzhong, The price is too heavy."
Concubine Li was quite dissatisfied with Lian Po, so she took advantage of this time to directly attack Lian Po.
King Zhao frowned after listening to Concubine Li's words, but he had to say that Concubine Li's words were very reasonable.
Concubine Li continued to speak: "Your Majesty, please think about it carefully, now Lian Po has lost the battle, but our country of Zhao has not lost.
Wu Xinjun just defeated the Chu State and South Korean coalition forces in the south. Speaking of which, our Zhao State still has the advantage, how could it be possible to do such a thing of cede land for peace? "
After hearing Concubine Li's words, Zhao Wang became more and more silent.
After a while, Zhao Wang said helplessly: "That's what I said, but forget it, I will ask Zhou Shaofen and the others to come over and discuss this matter."
After all, it is impossible for King Zhao to make his own opinion on such a major event as the peace talks.
Soon King Zhao called several other ministers to discuss this matter.
Regarding this matter, the positions of several other ministers can be said to be completely opposite.
Pang Nuan said directly: "Your Majesty, the current situation is that our country of Zhao has won a brilliant victory, and we will surely become the victors of the next war.
If we, as winners, want to cede territory to the losers for peace, wouldn't we become the joke of the whole world after the word spread? "
As Zhao Kuo's ally, Pang Nuan had already received Zhao Kuo's instruction, and it was absolutely impossible for him to back down from the position he adopted during the peace talks.
But Pang Nuan's position was immediately opposed by Zhou Shaofen.
Zhou Shaofen said, "How can this be done?
General Lian Po is still in the hands of the people of Qin. If we anger the people of Qin, General Lian Po's life will be lost. "
Pang Nuan snorted, and said: "This sentence is just wrong, we must keep winning, so that the people of Qin will feel scared.
We can tell the envoys of Qin State now that if they dare to do anything to the general, they will face our soldiers of Zhao State!As a result, they had no choice but to release the Grand General. "
Although Pang Nuan wanted Lian Po to die in his heart, it was impossible to say such words on the surface.
After all, Lian Po is the general of Zhao State, and his life and death are related to Zhao State's face.
So Pang Nuan could only use a more tactful way to object to this idea.
The two sides quarreled again, but neither came to any unified idea.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Wang was also a little upset.
At this moment, eunuch Ling walked in.
Seeing eunuch Ling walk in suddenly, everyone stopped talking at the same time.
They all knew very well that if there was nothing important, it would be impossible for eunuch Ling to come in so suddenly.
Sure enough, the next moment Eunuch Ling said a piece of news that shocked everyone present.
"Your Majesty, Lord Wu Xin has just reported that Daliang City has been breached! King Wei has also been captured by Lord Wu Xin, and he will be brought to Handan soon."
Eunuch Ling beamed and announced the news to everyone present, with a very loud voice.
After hearing the eunuch Ling's words, everyone present was stunned.
Soon, King Zhao immediately burst into earth-shattering laughter.
"The widow knows that Wu Xinjun will not disappoint the widow, it's really great!"
The joy in Zhao Wang's heart at this moment is beyond words.
After the Wei State was destroyed, there were only 4 countries left in the world. In other words, King Zhao was one step closer to his road to unify the world.
Pang Nuan also showed a smile on his face, and smiled at King Zhao and said: "Your Majesty, now that the Kingdom of Wei has perished, then we don't need to worry about the threat from the State of Qin anymore. Next, the people of the State of Qin should take care of themselves Think about it, how to deal with the threat from our Zhao country!"
After hearing this sentence, King Zhao's face suddenly relaxed, and he said viciously: "That's right, I want these Qin people to know, dare to threaten the widow?
They will know they are wrong! "
After hearing the conversation between Pang Nuan and King Zhao, Zhou Shaofen's expression changed drastically.
Although this news is good news for Zhao Guo, it is absolutely bad news for Zhou Shaofen.
Now not only did Zhao Kuo get a huge credit, but it also made Pang Nuan's voice more important in Zhao's political arena.
Even the dominance of the negotiation this time seems to be taken away at this moment.
It is simply a defeat like a mountain.
Chapter 925
In a building in King Zhao's Palace, this is the place where the envoys of Qin State who came to negotiate temporarily lived.
At this moment, the envoy of the Qin State was arrogantly yelling at the Zhao State official in front of him.
"What happened?
Is your Zhou Shaofen and Zhou Qing still coming?
Or do you mean that you don't want Lian Po's life? "
The envoy of Qin State spoke in a high-pitched voice with a very proud expression on his face.
In the past many years, Qin State has been suppressed by Zhao State. As an envoy of Qin State, he has always been cautious when facing Zhao State, and it is impossible to have such an opportunity.
So now, when he got such an opportunity to show off his power, the envoy of the Qin Kingdom would naturally not miss it.
Facing the scolding by the Qin envoy, the diplomats of Zhao State were very angry, but they couldn't say anything.
Who made Lian Po, the general of Zhao State, be in the captive camp of the Qin State people at this moment? If the Qin State people were really in a hurry, things would be troublesome once Lian Po died.
At this moment, an old voice came over unhurriedly.
"That guy Zhou Shaofen has been removed from the position of the peace talks leader by the king. From today on, the old man will be in charge of the peace talks with you."
The Qin envoy couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard the words, and subconsciously looked in the direction from which the words came, and then saw Pang Nuan.
Of course, the envoy of the Qin Kingdom recognized Pang Nuan, and his heart skipped a beat.
Everyone knows that Pang Nuan has always been Zhao Kuo's most loyal ally.
Could it be said that the name Zhao Kuo has been a nightmare in the hearts of Qin people all these years, and even Pang Nuan, an ally of Zhao Kuo, seemed a little unlucky to the Qin envoy.
Although there were some murmurs in his heart, on the surface, the envoy of the Qin Kingdom would definitely not be at a disadvantage.
"I don't care who comes to talk to me, I just want to ask you a question, can the peace talks be reached within three days?
If not, then you can wait for the head of General Lian Po to be sent to Handan! "
Just like King Qin Yingzi Chu's decision, Qin's intention this time is very simple, that is, to reach peace talks with Zhao as quickly as possible to ensure that Qin can exchange Lian Po's life for the land in the eastern part of Guanzhong that was previously occupied by Zhao. Xihe County.
The reason why the sooner the better is, of course, to prevent Qin's bargaining chip on the negotiating table from weakening in case of any changes in other battlefields.
Therefore, the envoy of the Qin State directly gave a three-day deadline. He felt that if it was at least three days, it should be impossible for any accident to happen.
But then, Pang Nuan's performance was completely beyond the Qin envoy's expectations.
Pang Nuan said: "In fact, it doesn't take three days. Our king has already made a decision, and now I want the old man to come to you to announce the decision."
"what?"
After hearing these words, the Qin envoy was even more shocked, and began to have a bad premonition in his heart.
But Pang Nuan didn't give the envoy of Qin State any chance to speak at all, and continued directly: "Let me tell you this, you go back and tell your king immediately, if he doesn't release Lian Poda immediately and unconditionally General, and other captured Zhao soldiers, then Wu Xinjun will immediately send troops to the west, penetrate the entire Guanzhong, and burn your capital Xianyang City to nothing!"
Pang Nuan's voice was also very loud when he spoke, but he was already very upset when he heard the voice of the envoy of the Qin State just now.
The Qin envoy's eyes widened, and he could hardly believe what he had just heard.
"What do you mean to release Lian Po and all the Zhao prisoners immediately, and unconditionally?
This is simply impossible! "
Pang Nuan chuckled, and calmly took out a letter of credence from his pocket.
"This is the letter of credence written by our lord to your lord. You can see it for yourself."
The envoy of the State of Qin trembled, took the letter of credence and opened it for a look, and found that the content on it was exactly the same as what Pang Nuan just said.
Even King Zhao's words were much harsher than Pang Nuan's, it was as if the kingdom of heaven was reprimanding the subordinates of a small country.
The envoy of Qin State couldn't believe it. He held the letter of credence and screamed after a while.
"Don't you Zhao people want Lian Po and the lives of those tens of thousands of captives?"
Pang Nuan looked at the Qin envoy in front of him with mocking eyes: "Don't you Qin people want Xianyang and the remaining half of Guanzhong?
I have already told you that if you really do not agree to our condition, then Qin will be able to say goodbye to the entire Guanzhong in the future. "
The envoy of Qin State sneered and said, "This is simply impossible. Your Lord Wu Xin is still under Daliang City. How could he have time to go to our Guanzhong?"
Pang Nuan laughed loudly, and took out another thing from his bosom.
"See for yourself, what is this?
Since you are a messenger, it is impossible for you not to recognize this thing. "
The envoy of the State of Qin took a closer look and found that there was a small seal in Pang Nuan's hand. This seal was crystal clear and made of blue jade. It looked like an extremely valuable item.
The envoy of the Qin State suddenly thought of something, his face changed drastically, he snatched the seal from Pang Nuan's hand, held it in his hand and turned it around for a closer look, and then he could hardly stand upright.
Although the words engraved on the bottom of this seal are opposite, as Pang Nuan said, as a diplomatic envoy, I don’t know how many letters of credentials from other countries he has seen. The identity of Meixiyin.
"Is this Wei Wang Yuxi?"
The Qin envoy's body trembled, and even his voice trembled when he spoke.
Pang Nuan laughed loudly, and looked at the envoy of Qin State very proudly: "Now you understand, Daliang City has been breached, Wei State has also perished, and you Qin State is the only one in the whole world who is still thinking about life and death. To fight with our country Zhao.
You tell me, based on the current state of Qin, what leverage do you have to fight against our Wu Xinjun?
If you are more sensible, return General Lian Po and those tens of thousands of captives properly, and make an apology, maybe our country of Zhao can forgive you.
Otherwise, once Wu Xinjun leads the army westward, I don't need to say more about what will happen? "
Hearing Pang Nuan's words, the envoy of Qin State was completely dumbfounded.
Chapter 926
Not only the envoy of the Qin State, but even the diplomats of the Qin State who had just been arrogant around the envoy of the Qin State, are all sluggish now.
They were originally holding that this time they must blackmail Zhao Guoren for revenge and blood hatred, but they never expected that they were only proud of coming here, and things would become like this within two or three days.
Originally speaking, if the state of Zhao still held the attitude of wanting to destroy the state of Wei, then it must only agree to the request of the state of Qin, so as to avoid greater losses.
