Lu Buwei stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty traded fifteen cities for one woman. The officers and soldiers of the State of Qin were indignant, and the court of the State of Zhao became civilized and violent. This is the result of your king's planning."
After praising Qin Yiren, he continued: "After I, Qin, send fifteen cities, I can also take the opportunity to raise troops to attack Zhao. Zhao's soldiers are not enough. After eating this fat, the garrison in each city will be weak -
After the State of Zhao was cut by Changping, the country's young and strong people were already in decline. Therefore, Lu Buwei's words are indeed the words of a mature man seeking the country. Even if the State of Zhao wants these fifteen cities, if he swallows them in one gulp, he will be just a fat man.
This huge territory will turn Zhao State from a clenched iron fist into a piece of loose sand. Qin State takes this opportunity to attack Zhao State. You know, it will be much easier than before.
With Lu Buwei's words, the ministers were confused at first, and then their faces turned happy. This time, it seemed that the Qin State was suffering a loss, but it was not retreating in order to advance.
Xiang Shaolong also had a long-standing dislike for the Zhao court as a whole, and immediately controlled the monarch and his ministers to formulate plans for conquering Zhao. After Wu Tingfang was sent to Xianyang, the capital of Qin, he sent troops to destroy Zhao.
He wants to kill Zhao Li with the hands of Qin
More than ten days later, after the Qin State ceded fifteen cities to the Zhao State, Wu Tingfang was sent to the Qin State as promised. On a street in Xianyang, the capital of Qin, among the speeding carriages, Wu Tingfang felt mixed emotions in her heart.
Knowing why she was favored by the King of Qin, he was even willing to exchange her at such a high price. Logically speaking, she should be happy to escape from the Zhao Kingdom, but when she thought that the He clan was still in prison, she still found it difficult to feel happy.
Soon, Xiang Mansion.
The carriage stopped here.
"Is it Shaolong?'
"He saved me?'
Wu Tingfang knew the small seal script of the Qin State, and when he saw the plaque, he immediately thought of Xiang Shaolong. Xiang Shaolong would definitely be appreciated by the Qin State for escorting the Prince of Qin back to the country, but it would not be a big deal with the King of Qin. He was willing to
Abandon fifteen cities in exchange for her life.
"Please come in, Miss Wu.'
The waiter outside the door had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Wu Tingfang in a daze, he reminded him.
Entering the mansion, passing through the screen wall, walking along the corridor, and walking into a living room. At the door of the living room, Xiang Shaolong was pacing back and forth, looking anxious, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"Shaolong.
Wu Tingfang was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly flew over and fell into Xiang Shaolong's arms.
The two hugged each other tightly, and neither of them spoke.
"Shaolong, I'm sorry for you. After I was imprisoned, I was innocent..." When the two separated, Wu Tingfang couldn't help holding his knees and crying bitterly.
She had a good reputation in the Zhao Kingdom. If she hadn't been protected by the Wu clan before, she would have become someone else's plaything. But when the He family was caught, she had no one to protect her, and with such beauty, it was difficult to maintain her innocence.
Xiang Shaolong's face changed a few times, turning green and white. He clenched his fists and said, "Zhao Li, I, Xiang Shaolong, and you are at odds with each other. After the Qin State destroys the Zhao State, I will definitely make you worse than life or death."
Although there must be grudges against Juluhou Zhao Mu, Xiang Shaolong still hates "Zhao Li" who defeated him one after another more than Juluhou Zhao Mu. What's more, "Zhao Li" has now taken charge of the Zhao Kingdom.
If we say that Wu Tingfang's affairs have little to do with "Zhao Li", it is obviously impossible.
"I have betrayed you in this life
Wu Tingfang suddenly stopped crying, and after saying these words to Xiang Shaolong, he slammed into the courtyard pillar, as if he was about to commit suicide.
But Xiang Shaolong's martial arts skills were much higher than Wu Tingfang's, and he quickly hugged the beautiful lady, "Tingfang, don't be impulsive. I won't care about you losing your virginity. It's not up to you. I know.
Don't worry, I will never care about this in the future.
Although he has the style of a thief... Mrs. Ni, Mrs. Ya, Zhao Ji, etc. are all like this. But Wu Tingfang is his own wife, and there is a difference. If other men touch her
After looking at Wu Tingfang, he will never give up.
But...he could only choose to forgive Wu Tingfang.
The reason why he chose to redeem Wu Tingfang as soon as possible was because he was worried that the redemption would be late.
"Shaolong, is it true?" Wu Tingfang looked happy, as if he couldn't believe it.
If she really committed suicide, she would have committed suicide at the moment Wujiapu fell. With her beauty, she would not understand what would happen once Wujiapu was breached. Even if Zhao Guo's affairs were preceded by
Not to mention, on the way to Qin, she also had countless opportunities to commit suicide.
Being like this in front of Xiang Shaolong means that he has made up his mind that Xiang Shaolong will not just watch her die. After all, he has spent such a high price to redeem her previously.
It's not that she doesn't like Xiang Shaolong, it's just that she cherishes her life more.
The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. Xiang Shaolong did not guess the true meaning of Wu Tingfang's heart. He gently stroked Wu Tingfang's black hair and said, "Don't worry, Tingfang, Zhao Mu, Zhao Li and the rest, I will kill them one by one.
To avenge you, you don’t need to care too much in your heart
The two had been separated for a long time, and they met again after experiencing a catastrophe. They couldn't stop talking. After talking for about half an hour, Wu Tingfang suddenly remembered that her entire family was still in prison, and quickly asked
He said: "Shaolong, what should I do? My father and my grandfather are now imprisoned in the Zhao State Prison. Is there anything you can do to rescue them?"
Rescue them?
Xiang Shaolong wanted to laugh after hearing this. Just to save Wu Tingfang, he had already spent a lot of money. Not to mention the people in Wujiabao. These people had little relationship with him.
But of course these innermost thoughts cannot be told truthfully. He coaxed Wu Tingfang and said: "Don't worry, Tingfang, after Qin conquers Zhao, if there is a chance, I will definitely ask the king to ask Zhao to hand over the leader of the Wu clan.
As well as your father, Zi Niang and others..., but there is no rush now."
This statement was not believable. But Wu Tingfang had no other choice. He could not force Xiang Shaolong to rescue him. Not only would he not be able to save the Wufu clan, but it would make Xiang Shaolong hate her. She clicked
He nodded, "I know, I'm waiting for that day, and I'll leave this matter to you, Shaolong...
Xiang Shaolong naturally agreed.
The war between Qin and Zhao was about to break out.
Although Qin's national power is now far greater than that of Zhao, it does not mean that Zhao does not have the strength to fight. What's more, Zhao also has Bai Gui to help. In the Qianyuan world, Bai Gui defeated the Jin and Song countries all the way.
, Xixia, and worshiped Han Shizhong as his teacher, and he had already mastered the military tactics and strategies. In addition, he was familiar with the affairs of the Tang Dynasty, such as being a prime minister, managing food and grass, etc.
Bai Gui is not afraid of attacking Qin at all.
However, he was not in a hurry to take command. Instead, he invited Zhao Wangdan first and asked Xinping Jun Lianpo, a veteran general, to take command first to defend the Qin division. Managing the internal affairs well can be regarded as a credit. There is no need to rush into the battle and win.
Although he has great military achievements, he cannot maximize his profits.
The Qin State sent 250,000 troops this time. The prime minister, Lu Buwei, personally led the troops into the battle, with Meng Wu as his deputy. During the Warring States Period, there was no distinction between civil and military affairs. Although Lu Buwei entered the Qin court with the help of rare goods, he was able to securely hold the position of the prime minister.
, it also relies on real military achievements.
Lu Buwei relied on the Qin division's powerful troops to advance all the way to the Zhao border and regain the eight previously ceded cities. Even though Xinping Jun Lian Po was good at fighting, in the end Lian Po was old and the Zhao soldiers were weak. In several battles, they were at a disadvantage and lost their troops and generals.
.
Zhao State can defeat a weak country like Yan State. But if it really encounters the powerful Qin Rui Shi, Zhao State's weakness will be fully exposed.
One day, there were seven border emergency reports.
The Zhao State is in danger, and it seems that it will be in danger of subjugation again in the next moment.
"Omihara leads the troops to fight.'
Inside the palace of King Zhao, Bai Gui walked into the palace and said to King Zhao Dan who was recovering from his injuries: "Although the Qin army is large, it is not without flaws. I am willing to lead 10,000 elite troops to defeat its army."
With Lian Po's defeat, Bai Gui, the person in charge of Zhao's domestic affairs, also encountered a lot of implication and doubt.
"Ten thousand elites? Prince Consort, you have always been safe, why are you saying such big words?" Zhao Wangdan looked a little haggard and was lying on the soft couch. Hearing Bai Gui's words, he was startled and straightened up, "The Qin Army has twenty
There are 50,000 people, and you lead 10,000. Even if Lord Xinping resists the main force, these 10,000 people are too few to threaten the Qin army.
Seeing Bai Gui's appearance, Zhao Wangdan couldn't help but think of Zhao Kuo a few years ago. On paper, he had already suffered a big loss. If Bai Gui hadn't governed the Zhao country in an orderly manner these days, proving his ability,
Otherwise, if he doesn't say anything, he will let Bai Gui take the blame...
During the Changping War, Zhao fell from a country competing with Qin to a weak country. This was his fault. After his death, he was ashamed of his ancestors.
"I am sure.
Bai Gui said, and then explained: "Xinping Jun is old and has long known that it is difficult to resist the Qin army. Therefore, the training of the northern imperial army in the past few days has initially achieved results. Your Majesty, you can take a look.'
He took charge of the Zhao court, was named a general, and was also in charge of part of the forbidden army. Although there were only three thousand people, he trained these forbidden troops with battle formation training methods that far exceeded those of the Warring States period. Although it did not last long,
It has only been a little over a month, but these Imperial Guards have already taken on a new look.
When it comes to the pinnacle of cold weapons, it is the Song and Jin Dynasties. As for the later years, there are firearms, and it is not really the cold weapon era.
If it weren't for Xiang Shaolong, with his knowledge, it would not be difficult to make artillery. As for the cold weapon combat, he has been with Xiang Shaolong for a long time as the man in the mirror, and he knows that Xiang Shaolong is a scumbag.
With Zhao Jun's sudden strength, there is no need to worry about Xiang Shaolong seeing this.
Zhao Wangdan readily agreed and set up a banquet at the military academy.
"Is this the army trained by the consort?'
When he saw the imperial guards in the school grounds, he was immediately surprised.
The former Forbidden Army were also elite. But at most they could keep the queues in order and form a formation when fighting. But today's Forbidden Army has completely changed its appearance. Not to mention orderly advance and retreat, the key is the command flag.
Under the command, the formation can be changed flexibly, and there are also many new weapons.
"With the consort here, I can have a peaceful sleep."
Zhao Wangdan stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Even if Bai Gui couldn't defeat the Qin army, these thousands of elites alone had already demonstrated his talent. And this was only the result of one month.
He did not hold out hope that Bai Gui could defeat the Qin army, but if he could delay the Qin army's attack, it would be a great achievement.
"Zhao Li listens to the order!"
Zhao Wangdan pondered for a moment, then looked at Bai Gui, "I order you to mobilize fifteen thousand elites from Gandan, and then you can rush to the front line to support Lord Xinping and hold back Qin."
"Ten thousand elites are too few.'
After learning the lesson from the last time, he did not dare to change his general temporarily.
So I just ordered Bai Gui to be a reinforcement.
As long as Lord Xinling is honest, even if he retreats every step of the way, he will not end up with the country subjugated. "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Bai Gui received the order.
With Bai Gui's participation in the battle, the situation on the battlefield was instantly reversed.
If his strategy failed, he could lead a charge and break through the Qin army's formation. Even in order to face the Qin army's arrow formation and crossbow formation, he directly used heavy armored cavalry to fight.
Heavy armored cavalry is undoubtedly a great killer weapon of cold weapons.
It doesn’t mean that cavalry with a layer of iron armor is called heavy armored cavalry. If you want to fight on the battlefield, heavy armored cavalry has its own set of tactics, which cannot be pieced together in a short time. And Bai Gui benefited from his experience in doing so.
In battles in the Yuan world, I have long been familiar with the tactics of heavy armored cavalry, and can command them like an arm.
As for some armor, he had the cold forging method of Xixia, and he could create thousands of pairs of armor and iron swords, which were enough to not be afraid of Qin's arrows.
More than half a month of continuous fierce fighting
Finally, Lu Buwei's Qin division was defeated by Bai Gui. The Zhao army took advantage of the victory and pursued it, annihilating more than 50,000 Qin divisions, regaining the eight lost cities, and even recaptured part of Zhao's homeland.
With this credit, Bai Gui finally secured his position as prime minister in the Zhao court.
Military merit always ranks first. After returning to Gandan of Zhao State, Zhao Wangdan immediately promoted Bai Gui to general and took charge of the state affairs of Zhao State.
During the Warring States Period, the Prime Minister was a prime minister with real power. He could command hundreds of officials. Those with great prestige could even overwhelm the king. The old practice of appointing relatives and children as prime ministers was also common. At this time, there was no official practice of seniority in later generations.
Those who are able will prevail.
"It seems that Zhao Li is really your destined killer.
"At the end of the Warring States Period, there was no such person as Zhao Li. The only explanation is that as a time traveler, you destroyed everything in the original time and space, so the will of the world gave birth to a destiny person to kill you
Xianyang, in the palace, the man in the mirror said calmly.
"What, the Destined One?'
Xiang Shaolong was startled.
No matter how bad his history studies were, he had at least read the Great Qin Empire written by Mr. Bai. But now that Zhao Li came out of the blue, he was completely confused. In the past, Zhao's fame was limited to one country, but now
Zhao Li has already intervened in the Qin-Zhao war. If Zhao Li's name cannot be left in history, then it is simply impossible. Zhao Li is already a famous general of Zhao State.
"Or you can call him the son of luck.'
The person in the mirror explained: "Originally, the son of destiny should be Zhao Zheng, but because of your appearance, Zhao Zheng died. Although there is another Zhao Pan, it is obviously fake. You killed the previous one in disguise.
, so the will of the world gave birth to a stronger destiny person. And this person is Zhao Li.'
"His existence has not only blocked your path to immortality.'
"In fact, the purpose of his existence is to kill you and take away everything from you." The man in the mirror confessed.
Destiny, son of destiny
The amount of information was a bit large, and Xiang Shaolong took a moment to think about it.
"Mr. Bai, what should I do?'
he asked.
He was not confident about dealing with Zhao Li. He was a famous general who could defeat the Qin army. He had such superb martial arts skills and was one of the best in wisdom. No matter from every aspect, he was not as good as "Zhao Li"
"Let me teach you Taoism so that you can have more confidence in saving your life after meeting him."
The man in the mirror did not answer Xiang Shaolong's question and sighed.
