Xu Qing knocked Long Bing'er on the head and said, "Women, don't get angry easily. It's not good for your health. Eat well."
Long Bing'er was knocked on the head by Xu Qing, and she puffed her lips and said, "How can I survive in this situation? Shuzhou will be attacked from both sides!"
Xu Qing waved his hand and said: "Calm down, nothing will happen to me if I take care of Shuzhou."
Long Bing'er looked at Xu Qing and asked, "How do you know nothing will happen?"
Xu Qing said: "Although our army in Shuzhou is not enough to resist the attacks of two countries at the same time, we can resist any country. The price of Shezhao's ability to capture Shuzhou is that Zhao State will attack Shu with all its strength.
The state prevents Shu state's troops from being distracted from dealing with them, and vice versa."
After hearing Xu Qing's words, Long Bing'er suddenly realized: "So what you mean is that Zhao Guo and She Zhao are actually in the wait-and-see stage now. No one dares to take action first. Everyone wants to be the fisherman who profits?"
Xu Qing knocked Long Bing'er on the head again and said, "What you, you, yours, I want to call you husband, husband, do you understand? Madam Bing'er."
Long Bing'er immediately glared at Xu Qing in shame and said reluctantly, "Husband..."
Xu Qing's face suddenly showed a satisfied smile; "This is so good."
Only Xiao Ning'er was counting on her fingers how many mothers she had.
Today's Shuzhou seems to be surrounded by enemies from both sides, but the enemies in the belly and back are not of the same mind at all. No one is willing to sacrifice national power to create opportunities for the other side.
This is a wonderful balance.
What seems like a disadvantage is actually an advantage.
Both Zhao and Shezhao have tasted the power of firearms and suffered great losses.
They would have a natural fear when facing a country with firearms. Shezhao just saw that Shuzhou's military strength was stretched thin, so he used small moves to test Shuzhou, but did not dare to make big moves.
Of course, this advantage also has disadvantages, that is, the two enemy countries that are facing it from the front and back do not dare to act rashly, and Shuzhou is not easy to act rashly.
If you attack the State of Zhao, Shezhao will seize the opportunity. If you attack the State of Shezhao, the State of Zhao will also seize the opportunity.
It is indeed difficult for one state to resist the covetousness of two forces.
After eating, Xu Qing immediately wrote a letter to Xin Honggao, asking him to remain unchanged in response to any changes. Although they were having fun outside Shuzhou with their little tricks, as long as Shuzhou's army defended the front tightly, there was no need to fear any enemy.
Military intrusion.
When Xu Qing wrote back, Long Bing'er had been standing next to Xu Qing, looking at him and asking, "Is it true that there won't be any changes in Shuzhou?"
After Xu Qing finished writing the letter, he put down the pen, stood up, took Long Bing'er's hands and said, "Don't worry, your task now is to dress yourself up beautifully and wait for the wedding. Don't think about anything else.
I am here."
Long Bing'er sighed and said: "I have said countless times that I will not rely on you as much as possible, but who knows that I still can't do without you now."
Xu Qing took Long Bing'er into her arms and said, "Husband and wife are one and should help each other. If you can do everything perfectly, what do you want from your husband?"
Long Bing'er was held in Xu Qing's arms and Xu Qing's hands stroked her long hair, and she slowly closed her eyes.
Xu Qing hugged Long Binger and asked: "Bing'er, do you think I should tell Shezhao that if Zhao dares to attack Shuzhou, we in Shuzhou will use firearms to clear the way at all costs until we capture the whole of Shezhao.
territory."
Long Bing'er was stunned when she heard Xu Qing's words. Even if the power of Shuzhou is used to fight against Zhao State, even if it has firearms, it is indeed not enough. At best, it will fall into a stalemate. But now the only ancestral land left in Shezhao, Shuzhou is far away
Shezhao was so close and it was enough to capture Shezhao at all costs.
I really want to see She Zhao's expression after hearing this and whether he dares to do anything small.
Zhao Guochaotang
At this time, Emperor Zhao was sitting in the study, looking at Prime Minister Qin and the six ministers, and said with a gloomy face: "Now Shuzhou has been lost for almost a year, and you have no countermeasures. How can I explain to my ancestors?
"
The six ministers did not dare to speak. The rebels in Shuzhou were angry and had to pass the pass. As long as they defended according to the danger, there was nothing these people could do.
Moreover, the Six Ministers were very puzzled by the worrying attitude of Emperor Zhao now. It seems that Shuzhou has been lost since the time of the late emperor, right?
If it is difficult to explain, it means that it is difficult for the late Emperor to explain. Your Majesty, why are you so frightened?
The late emperor was the last to be scolded by his ancestors, so it’s not your turn, right?
Prime Minister Qin cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have heard that She Zhao has made some changes now. They are frequently deploying troops around Shuzhou. It seems that they are also interested in Shuzhou."
The Minister of War said: "This is natural. Our State of Zhao has a contract with the State of Chu. If the territory of the State of Zhao is invaded by an enemy, the State of Chu will send troops for our country free of charge..."
Emperor Zhao waved his hand after hearing the words of the Minister of War: "Don't use it free of charge. Did they borrow five million taels in exchange for military expenses last time? It has been so many years and not even a hair has been seen."
When the Minister of the Ministry of War heard what Emperor Zhao said, he coughed with an embarrassed expression and cupped his hands and said: "Yes... If Shuzhou is still the territory of our Zhao Kingdom, then Shezhao will naturally not dare to act rashly, but now Shezhao has been captured by the rebels.
The occupation gave Shezhao hope. If Shuzhou does not belong to our territory, then Shezhao will send troops again and we will not be able to invite Chu to pacify Shezhao."
Emperor Zhao nodded: "It seems that She Zhao is still evil-minded."
Prime Minister Qin stood aside and said, "Your Majesty, we, the State of Zhao, cannot take Shuzhou now, and we cannot take the State of Shu just by relying on She Zhao. Why not take this opportunity to form an alliance with the State of Zhao and gather the people of the two countries?"
The strength will definitely be able to annihilate the rebels in Shuzhou in one fell swoop."
The Minister of War immediately objected: "No! Your Majesty! I think that the rebels in Shuzhou are always the internal strife of our Zhao country. How can we form an alliance with Shezhao? When the time comes, I'm afraid it will be easier to ask the gods than to send them away, and now both countries want to
If you act as a fisherman to gain profit by striking later, if you form an alliance with Shezhao, wouldn't it be a disguised form of strengthening Shezhao?"
The remaining five ministers, you look at me, I look at you, and you start to smooth things over.
Only the Minister of War can be so strong as the Prime Minister of Qin.
Although Prime Minister Qin has now lost His Majesty's favor, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Today, Prime Minister Qin's power cannot be underestimated between the government and the public. It is better for them not to help Xini. After all, Prime Minister Qin can talk.
Many times, Prime Minister Qin was able to speak words into His Majesty's heart. If His Majesty one day suddenly felt that Prime Minister Qin was not bad and gained power again, it is self-evident what would happen to those who opposed Prime Minister Qin.
Emperor Zhao, who was standing next to the imperial case, couldn't make up his mind for a moment when he heard what the two said, so he had to let them write separate memorials before he thought about it carefully.
