Chapter 1219 : Hosting for the country and the people
Xu Qing sat in the duty room, holding the information sent by Xin Honggao and collected by Long Bing'er, plus his own summary, and finally nodded, thinking in his heart: "Such a man,
I'm afraid there aren't many left in the world, except for the local ones, it's simply the limit of what the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains can do to change their destiny against the will of heaven."
Long Bing'er sat aside, stroking her belly that was growing every day with one hand, and holding the information in the other hand. At the end, she gave Xu Qing a blank look: "Look at me, then look at you..."
Xu Qing turned her head helplessly: "Why are you still involving me? What's my fault? I just want to give you a family."
Long Bing'er turned her head proudly, and Xu Qing took out a big white rabbit from his sleeve. Long Bing'er immediately stretched out his hands to grab it.
She was pregnant, so Xu Qing didn't want her to move too violently. After luring Long Bing'er over, he let go and the white rabbit was snatched away by Long Bing'er. He skillfully peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in
Yes, the lips are bright red.
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er's bright red lips, well, he felt that he suddenly had an appetite.
Seeing Xu Qing staring at her lips, Long Bing'er couldn't help but kick his calf under the table: "During office hours, you are not allowed to fish in front of the commander-in-chief! Think carefully about how to deal with Li Hu's attack first.
The city cannot defeat the generals who defend the city and cannot defeat it."
Xu Qing said: "I have already thought of it."
Long Bing'er asked: "What do you think?"
Xu Qing said: "Isn't Li Hu henpecked?"
Long Bing'er frowned: "You don't mean to kidnap General Li Hu's wife? Force General Li Hu to surrender? I'm afraid this is unreliable."
Nowadays, there are many Shuzhou informants in the capital of Zhao State, and even some courtiers have been instigated to rebel. The leader of these courtiers, Prime Minister Qin, must consider the opinions of Shuzhou. Of course, Prime Minister Qin does not know who the informants are.
The informant didn't know that Prime Minister Qin now had to work hard for Shuzhou to survive.
Now that Shuzhou's espionage capabilities are limited except in the imperial city, there is no problem in abducting people from other places. Although Li Hu's wife lives in the inner city, it will be troublesome at best, but not impossible.
However, in Long Bing'er's opinion, this idea was simply not feasible.
Without your wife, you still have parents and relatives. If you can kidnap one, can you kidnap a whole family?
Want to make people surrender with just one wife?
Have you ever considered your parents’ lives?
Li Hu is a very emotional person. If this step is not taken well, they may become in a fight to the death.
This is not the result Long Binger wants to see.
Now Long Bing'er has the idea of inspiring rebellion as much as possible against Zhao's capable generals.
After all, what they are doing now is consuming the effective strength within Zhao State. On the other side of the Yangtze River, there are Zhou State and Chu State watching eagerly.
Because of Xu Qing's relationship, one or two generations may not be able to fight each other and we can get along harmoniously without distinguishing between you and me, but it will be hard to say later!
Xu Qing stroked Long Bing'er's chest, calmed Long Bing'er's breath, and said: "Okay, okay! My husband didn't say that he was going to kidnap someone else's wife. We are regular troops, not bandits, and we won't do it.
For this kind of kidnapping, I just said that we can rely on his henpecked trait, but I didn’t say that we only rely on his henpeckiness to win over others.”
Long Bing'er looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Xu Qing said: "Li Hu is good at defending the city, has a clear and far-sighted strategy, so wouldn't it be enough to replace their border general? Find a way to get the emperor to replace Li Hu."
When Long Bing'er heard Xu Qing's words, she rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's easy for you to think about it. How can you change it? Do you think that the current Emperor of Zhao is still the same stupid young man who just listens to whatever his subordinates say?"
Now, after experiencing crises for several consecutive years, Emperor Zhao already has his own set of judgments in his mind.
If it were in the past, he would have done whatever Qin Xiang and Bai Fu said, and it would be best to live peacefully until retirement.
It's a pity that now King Ming, She Zhao, and Long Bing'er don't want him to retire peacefully.
Now Zhao Huang has also been tempered by the war. If he cannot retire safely, he will have no choice but to micro-manage personally, and he has begun to have some ideas of his own.
Just like the current situation.
He couldn't tell exactly what the border looked like, but he still knew the basic situation.
Firearms bombarded the city one after another, and the siege became more and more intense. Emperor Zhao wished that Li Hu could hold on until he died of old age!
At this time, Emperor Zhao would not withdraw Li Hu no matter how clever his subordinates were.
Changing generals at the last minute?
Doesn’t that mean you have a long life?
After three rounds of crises, Emperor Zhao was no longer the fool who only knew how to rub himself against the concubines in the harem.
He could order Li Hu to defend the city while rubbing himself against the concubines in the harem, and he could also take a look at the art of war from time to time.
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er and said, "Then let's pretend to be incapable of attacking the city and show it to Emperor Zhao. Have you ever heard of the stove reduction plan?"
Long Bing'er nodded and said: "Of course I know, but what does this have to do with the Stove Reduction Strategy? Can the Stove Reduction Strategy also be used to attack a city?"
Xu Qing took Long Bing'er's slender hand and squeezed it: "Bing'er, you are simply pregnant. Pregnancy makes you stupid for three years. The child has hindered the inspiration in your mind. Think about it carefully.
What should we lose?”
Long Bing'er stroked her belly with one hand and poked the baby, which made her become more and more naive. After thinking about it with her not-so-smart brain, her eyes lit up and she said, "You mean, reduce the weight?"
firearm?"
Xu Qing affirmed: "That's right! Firearms are our most ceremonial thing. Without firearms, our strength will be reduced by more than half. It will take a month to dump firearms non-stop, and then it will take another month to gradually
Reduce the number of firearms and pretend to be low on firearms. At the same time, the troops stationed outside the city also act restless and show it to the Emperor of Zhao. The performance must be realistic enough."
Xu Qing didn't believe that Emperor Zhao could still hold back and not take the initiative.
The Emperor of Zhao could not trust military generals, so he sent two young eunuchs to serve as military supervisors. The news sent back by the young eunuchs was compared with Li Hu's battle report.
But these two little eunuchs who were supervising the army did not have Li Hu's strategic vision. They were very young.
This strategy may not be able to fool Li Hu, but there is absolutely no problem in fooling these two young eunuchs.
As long as Li Hu doesn't talk nonsense in the battle report, then Zhao Huang will definitely feel that he can do it again and change his general to attack.
As for how to stop Li Hu from talking nonsense?
Very simple!
Just ask Xin Honggao to say: Brother Li, you don’t want your wife to know that you ordered an oiran when you were guarding the border, right?
