Daqin: The first emperor's direct son, the heavens are upgraded to gods

Page 227

"After such a long period of recuperation, my Great Zhao's national power has also recovered a lot. At least the food and grass are no longer in urgent need. Moreover, General Lian Po personally ordered troops to deploy troops on the border, and the king has signed an alliance with the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Yan. My Great Zhao There is no way to worry about Qin."

"Facing the power of other countries, Qin absolutely dare not offend my great Zhao."

Guo Kai said with a smile on his face, with the meaning of flattering.

"That idiot Ying Zheng created a so-called emperor in Xianyang, and he wanted to use the name of the emperor to intimidate the world, but he stupidly shot himself in the foot."

"Originally, Qi and Yan had some good intentions for an alliance with Qin, but now Yingzheng has shattered them." Zhao Yan sneered, full of ridicule towards Yingzheng.

"What the king said is very true."

"Qin Guo thought that if he cut off the business route with my Da Zhao, he would be able to bring down my Da Zhao. This is just a whimsical idea of Qin Wangzheng."

"Now our Dazhao border is defended by General Sima Shang commanding an army of 10,000+, and our Dazhao's cavalry is the best in the world. Even if the Qin army attacks, it is impossible to break through."

"As long as General Lian Po defeats Jinyang, I, Da Zhao, will be able to avenge my shame."

"Your Majesty will be able to lead my Great Zhao to counterattack Qin and destroy Qin in one fell swoop." Guo Kai continued to flatter.

"What the Prime Minister said is very true."

"I, Da Zhao, will surely defeat Qin, and I will be ashamed."

"Under the command of the great king, Great Zhao will surely prosper and expand the country..."

One by one, Zhao Guo's courtiers flattered each other.

Perhaps there are still many famous generals in Zhao State in this era, but after all, the king is incompetent and the prime minister is incompetent.

Hearing the compliments from the courtiers in the court, Zhao Yan also looked excited.

He has suffered so much in the hands of Qin, and now he can see that all the countries in the world are targeting Qin, which is naturally gratifying for him.

At least he doesn't have to worry about Qin's invasion.

After signing the covenant before.

The three kingdoms of Qi, Chu, and Yan have already made it clear that if Qin attacked Zhao, they would definitely send troops to help. This is Zhao Yan's support.

"Report."

"Your Majesty."

"Quyang urgent report."

"General Sima Shang reports urgently."

A messenger ran into the hall in a panic, knelt down on one knee, and shouted loudly.

"Qin has sent troops?"

Zhao Yan was taken aback, looking at the panicked soldiers in front of him.

But this time.

Zhao Yan rarely showed any signs of panic.

"Back to the king."

"Qin General Zhao Xuan, the battalion under his command has attacked my Great Zhao."

"General Sima Shang has commanded troops to defend the border." Zhao Bing said in panic.

"It's Qin's attack, why panic?" Zhao Yan frowned, without any worries.

"Prime Minister."

"Immediately send the Letter of Credibility to Qi, Chu, Yan and the Three Kingdoms. Qin has already sent troops to attack my Great Zhao, so let them quickly send troops to help." Zhao Yan immediately said to Guo Kai.

"The minister leads the edict." Guo Kai responded immediately.

"Yingzheng, you still can't wait after all."

"This time, the widow will let you go home without a feather." Zhao Yan sneered, already thinking of eating up all the invading Qin soldiers.

Although Zhao Yan doesn't have much ability.

But they also knew the abilities of his generals under Zhao Guo, so although Li Mu and the others were afraid of Lian Po, they still used them.

"Report."

"Quyang urgent report."

But news came that made Zhao Yan unhappy.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Yan frowned.

"Our army in Quyang has been defeated. General Sima Shang was killed by Qin general Zhao Xuan. The whole territory of Quyang fell."

"Your Majesty, please make a quick decision."

The Zhao soldier who came here reported in panic.

"what?"

Zhao Yan stood up abruptly, with a look of panic on his face.

The calm just now was gone.

"impossible."

"Impossible."

"Quyang has more than 20 troops from my great Zhao. Although Sima Shang is not as good as Lian Po, he is also a general of the frontier army. With the power of my great Zhao cavalry, he can fight against the Qin army and defeat the Qin army. How can he be defeated? And he was defeated so fast?"

"Could it be that Sima Shang has committed treason?"

Zhao Yan said in panic.

It was Lian Po and Li Mu who joined Sima Shang to defend Quyang, so as to prevent Da Qin from attacking. Even if it was not good enough, he could rely on such strength to prevent Da Qin for several months, so that Zhao Guo could get the allies to send troops to help him.

But now this defeat.

Zhao Yan lost his sense of proportion.

"Quyang is gone, and more than 20 troops are gone."

"The widow's capital is in danger."

"What about widows?"

"Prime Minister, what should I do?"

Zhao Yan slumped on the ground with some powerlessness, looked at Guo Kai with a flustered expression, and wanted to find a solution.

"Your Majesty, don't panic."

"Quyang only has an army of 20. My Great Zhao has 20 frontier troops, and General Lian Po's 30 troops. With these, it is impossible for Qin to destroy my Great Zhao."

"Your Majesty immediately issued a royal edict, ordering Li Mu and Lian Po to lead the army to defend the capital, so that they can deal with the Qin army."

"Just stick to it, and when the Qi, Chuyan and Three Kingdoms Allied Forces arrive, I, Da Zhao, will be able to defeat the Qin army." Guo Kai said immediately.

"This is absolutely impossible."

"General Li Mu's 20 frontier army is to guard against the alien Huns. Once the troops withdraw, the Huns may drive straight in."

"General Lian Po is now fighting against Huan Yi in Jinyang. If he withdraws his troops and returns to aid, Huan Yi will lead the Qin army to approach gradually. In this way, our great Zhao will be encircled and even more dangerous."

A courtier of Zhao Guo stood up, and his expression changed drastically.

"Master Chen, if Li Mu and Lian Po are not allowed to lead the army back to help, what should you do if you tell the truth?"

"Quyang is the gateway to my capital city. Quyang's army has been defeated, and the capital city has only tens of thousands of imperial guards. How can it resist the Qin army?" Guo Kai turned his head and shouted at the person who opposed it.

"This..."

After being stunned by Guo Kai, the courtier who spoke out did not know what to say.

"Your Majesty."

"Now there is no other way. Only by letting the two generals Lian Po and Li Mu fire their troops back to the capital, maybe we can hold on to the time when the reinforcements from the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu, and Yan arrive. Otherwise, I will be in danger." Guo Kai said loudly. The opening road.

"The minister waits for a second opinion."

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict to order the two generals Lian Po and Li Mu to return to the capital as soon as possible."

Many courtiers in the court echoed.

"Now it's the only way."

"Prime Minister, quickly draw up an edict ordering Lian Po and Li Mu to help the capital."

"As for the troubles at the border, it is far less than the danger of the country being destroyed. Once the Qin army is defeated, everything will be fine." Zhao Yan also said with a panicked expression.

At this moment, if Ying Zheng knew about Zhao Guochaotang's scene, he would definitely laugh out loud.

For Guo Kaikai.

It will certainly be greatly appreciated.

And if Zhao Xuanru knew it, he would definitely shout: "Guo Kai, Guo Xiang, you are worthy of the Great Qin God of War."

move.

Zhao Yan issued a royal edict.

If Lian Po withdraws his troops, the line of defense he spent time building will collapse immediately, and the Daqin Hangu camp will advance unimpeded.

Li Mu's frontier army is Zhao's most important defense against the Xiongnu. Foreign tribes outside the country have always been eyeing the Central Plains. Once they withdraw their troops, the people of Zhao's generation will be slaughtered by foreign tribes, and Zhao will fall into war on all sides.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

"Now the safety of the capital is of the utmost importance, and the safety of the king is of the utmost importance."

"I will send people to summon people quickly, and send people to the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Yan to ask for help."

Guo Kai said loudly, with a look of great loyalty and great wisdom.

This gesture.

There is really a posture of trying to turn the tide.

Zhao Yan also firmly believed in this.

Xianyang, Palace of the King of Qin.

Hundreds of officials gather.

But today's court is peaceful, and they don't even know that Da Qin has already launched troops against Zhao Guo.

"Your Majesty."

"Master Meng Yi in Weidi has transferred food and grass in Guanzhong one after another, and the copper and iron stored in the treasury have also been transferred to Weidi. Is it true that my Great Qin is going to start a war again?"

Wang Wan stood up, looked at Ying Zheng respectfully and asked.

The words fell.

All the officials in the court also looked at Ying Zheng.

"Calculate the time."

"It's like sending troops in Wei."

"Zhao Xuan's battle report should also be sent back."

In response to Wang Wan's question, Ying Zheng spoke slowly.

The words fell.

The court officials were even more astonished.

Whether to mobilize troops, don't even the king know?

"Your Majesty."

"When the Anyi camp is moved, it will affect the whole territory of Zhao State, and even affect the whole world."
