Entertainment Qin Shi

Chapter 35 Broken Promise?

Compared to South Korea's haste and panic, Zhao's side seemed extremely calm, and even the army had no intention of moving.

Zhao Palace.

Pang Nuan, a veteran over eighty years old, was waiting at the gate of the palace. He had been standing here for two hours, his brows showed a little tiredness, and his slightly cloudy eyes looked at him in confusion and puzzlement. The gate of the palace, is it possible that Zhao Wangyan really wants this old guy to become a treacherous person?

In order to persuade the five countries to join forces to attack Qin, he traveled around the world with his 80-year-old body, selling his old face, and finally contributed to this matter.

I thought that the Qin army could be defeated, and no matter how bad it was, the city and land occupied by Qin could be regained.

But he never thought that there would be many internal conflicts in the Five Kingdoms Alliance, and some people even sold out the defense map of the coalition forces, causing the coalition forces to be attacked by the Qin army at night, and Huang Xie, the king of Chunshen of the state of Chu, was even a villain. Tell the coalition army that he ran away with the Chu army alone.

Yes, really ran away.

It wasn't until the coalition forces were killed and retreated by the Qin army that everyone discovered that the Chu army had long since disappeared.

So far, the alliance of the five kingdoms has become a joke. Apart from taking back some cities and land, they have not gained any valuable results.

Now, it was Qin's turn to go crazy.

The first fire went directly to South Korea. Now the little brother in South Korea is looking for help, but Zhao Wangyan is sick and can’t even attend the court meeting. Without Zhao Wangyan’s consent, how can the general Pang Nuan mobilize Zhao Guo The army, not to mention the so-called rescue.

Zhao Guo's Prime Minister Guo Kai heard the news and arrived late. Seeing Pang Nuan with a tired face, he couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade: "General, Your Majesty is in poor health. You'd better come back another day."

He felt that Pang Nuan had lived like a dog at his age, and the king's intentions were so obvious, but he insisted on pressing him every step of the way. Wasn't this forcing the king to use the knife on him?

Can Zhao Guo benefit from sending troops to rescue South Korea?

If this dispatch of troops to rescue causes Qin State to attack Zhao State, will South Korea rescue Zhao State?
After all.

Zhao Guo’s capital is not as good as it used to be, and he still has a little spare power to protect himself. As for taking the initiative to attack, if there is not enough profit, Zhao Guo would do such a stupid thing. If not, how could Zhao Wangyan send the eldest son to Qin as a hostage , which in itself is a bow.

Fortunately, the result of the attempt was good, Qin State did not send troops to Zhao State.

"Could it be that Your Majesty really doesn't want to send troops to rescue South Korea?"

Pang Nuan opened his dry lips, ignored Guo Kai who was persuading him, and suddenly growled: "If the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, if South Korea dies, how can the country of Zhao survive alone? Doesn't the king even understand such a simple truth? !"

"Bold! Pang Nuan, you are so courageous. Your Majesty promoted you to be the General of the State of Zhao regardless of past suspicions. This is how you repay the Majesty? The Five Kingdoms failed, and the Majesty did not blame you. Now, you You are ashamed to persecute the king like this!"

Guo Kai changed his face in an instant, eager to protect the Lord, pointed at Pang Nuan's nose and scolded angrily.

"The failure of the alliance of five countries is because the old man underestimated the selfishness of all countries. Now the old man finally understands the helplessness of Su Qin and others. If he wants to defeat Qin, he can only succeed if he works together. Now South Korea is at stake, but Zhao is standing by.

Could it be that the king forgot the battle of Changping! "

Pang Nuan still didn't pay attention to Guo Kai's dog leg, and shouted in a trembling voice, even the Battle of Changping was brought out.

Guo Kai's face changed, he didn't expect Pang Nuan to say so boldly, this frankly would cost his life.

That's not the way to slap your face.

"Squeak."

At this moment, the gate of the palace was slowly opened, and the burly Zhao Wangyan walked out slowly wearing a big coat, looked at Pang Nuan with cold eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "The battle of Changping, what a loss! The general still remembers that battle, if the other country hadn't stood by and watched, how could the Zhao country have been defeated like this!"

After speaking, he took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Zhao Wangyan didn't expect Pang Nuan, an old man, to be so stubborn that he insisted on forcing him to come out and speak clearly.

Rescue South Korea?

If South Korea perishes, the most worrying thing is Wei State, not Zhao State. Even if he wants to send troops to rescue, Wei State should move first. Wei State has not moved. Why should Zhao State go into this muddy water? He doesn't want to attract the firepower of Qin State Over here, watching from the sidelines is undoubtedly the best choice.

In the battle of Changping, other countries stood by and watched... In that battle, Zhao Guo was arrogant and offended all countries. Naturally, other countries were unwilling to rescue them. Besides, all countries also hoped that both Qin and Zhao would suffer losses, and everyone would return to the same starting line.

No one thought that Qin Guoguo would do Zhao Guo so badly.

Naturally, Pang Nuan didn't refute this, he just knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and said, "Is Your Majesty really unwilling to send troops to rescue South Korea?"

"If the old general can persuade Wei Guo to send troops, I will agree to send troops!"

Zhao Wangyan looked at Pang Nuan, and said calmly, his attitude was obvious, he didn't care whether South Korea was dead or alive.

Pang Nuan's lips trembled for a moment. He didn't know whether he was angry or helpless. After a long time, he slowly released the sword around his waist, and his back, which was originally straight, suddenly bent a lot: "My lord, when the old man planned to join forces, he once Promised South Korea to open up the country, the two countries will be an alliance, this matter has also been promised by the king, now that the promise is broken, the old man really has no face to stay in Zhao country."

After finishing speaking, he threw the saber in his hand on the ground, stood up tremblingly, seemed to be drained of energy for a moment, turned around and walked out of the palace.

"The old general is really leaving!"

Zhao Wangyan frowned and looked at Pang Nuan's leaving back, and said in a deep voice.

Pang Nuan ignored it, walking slowly and firmly.

Zhao Wangyan didn't speak again, and watched the other party go. After a long time, he said slowly: "The old general has worked hard, and the reward is one thousand taels, and the cloth is three hundred... You can handle this matter."

"promise!"

Guo Kai clapped his hands in response, then moved his eyeballs, and asked: "Your Majesty, the old general is retiring, so who should take his place as the great general?"

"Li Mu!"

Zhao Wangyan didn't hesitate at all, and said in a deep voice, it seemed that he had made a decision from the very beginning.

Li Mu? !
Why Li Mu!

Guo Kai couldn't help but think a lot in his mind, because the relationship between Li Mu and the eldest son Zhao Jia is very deep, even to a certain extent, the other party has been Zhao Jia's teacher for a while.
