Today, Zhao Kuo's troubles do not come from Changping, but from Zhao's mother.
Zhao's mother didn't know why, but she was determined to arrange a marriage for Zhao Kuo. Naturally, it was the daughter of Xu Li who was rumored to be virtuous. Zhao Kuo could only find various excuses to escape, and even the Qin Dynasty was not destroyed, so why should he be a family?
You said everything, but Mother Zhao didn't believe it. Your father didn't dare to say anything about destroying Qin, but you defeated a Yan people and you dared to make such a noise?
That day, late at night, someone suddenly knocked on the courtyard door.
The voice was very urgent, panicked, and seemed a bit rude. Ge Dun, who was resting in a side room, jumped up. When he rushed to the courtyard with a dagger, he happened to meet Zhao Kuo who was also walking out with a weapon.
The two looked at each other and just walked to the door. Ge asked angrily: "Who is outside the door? How dare you be so rude?!"
"Old thief! Open the door! I'm Di!"
Ge was stunned and turned back angrily. Zhao Kuo had no choice but to step forward and open the door. Outside, there were dozens of people standing, holding bonfires and shivering in the cold wind. Among these people, Di was lucky enough to
, Li Yu, Ming, they are all Zhao Kuo's disciples, Di Yuan was still cursing: "You old thief, your bones are rotten... How can you open the door..." He hadn't finished his words yet.
, Xing on the side quickly covered his mouth.
Di opened his eyes wide and saw that the person who came to open the door was Zhao Kuo.
Everyone hurriedly bowed to Zhao Kuo and saluted. Zhao Kuo was a little excited. He missed his disciples very much. He stepped forward to help them one by one. This time he took them into the courtyard and then took them away.
When they arrived at the side room, Ge was lying on the bed. When he saw them coming in, he turned around and ignored them. Fortunately, he closed the door and everyone crowded inside to chat with Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo suddenly realized that they should be in Changping, why did they come back suddenly?
Di Chang sighed, looked at Zhao Kuo, and said, "Shaojun... General Lian Po has been defeated."
"What?? How could this..." Zhao Kuo's eyes widened and he looked at these people in disbelief. They all lowered their heads and looked particularly depressed. Di continued: "It's Bai Qi, Bai Qi
he came."
Zhao Kuo frowned and asked: "General Lian Po is good at using troops, and Changping has sufficient food and grass. Even if Bai Qi is the general, how can he be defeated so quickly? Where is General Lian Po? Where is he? The casualties of Zhao soldiers
What's the situation? Where are the Qin people?" Zhao Kuo asked anxiously. Everyone just looked at Di and didn't answer. Di said seriously: "Young Master, don't worry, General Lian Po is at the Bailishi Great Wall now.
"
"In Shangdang, the Qin people broke through the Danshui defense line, and Zhao's soldiers suffered nearly 40,000 casualties. The current trend is still unclear."
"General Lian Po said that your Majesty would not forgive him for suffering such a defeat. He sent us away and said that we should rush to Mafu so that you can prepare to succeed General Lian Po.
"Of course, you also want me to tell you something about going to the party." Di was the only one in the crowd who was very interested. There was no sign of depression on his face, and when he talked about Zhao's defeat, there was no trace of it.
feelings.
Of course, this may also be because he is not from Zhao, he just follows Zhao Kuo, not the King of Zhao. Therefore, he will not feel any sadness when facing these. Zhao Kuo sat down in a daze, hearing this
The bad news, and even the news that he was preparing to go to Changping, for some reason, Zhao Kuo didn't have the fear and panic he had in the past. He was just thinking about how he could defeat Bai Qi.
Perhaps because he has experienced life and death, Bai Qi can no longer make Zhao Kuo so afraid. Of course, it is still impossible to say that he is not afraid at all. Facing this cold-blooded war machine, he has defeated and beheaded millions of people in his life.
Who is not afraid of the God of Death? Zhao Kuo is naturally afraid too, but he used to be afraid that he would die in Bai Qi's hands, but now, he is just afraid that he will not be able to defeat Bai Qi, that's all.
"The second and third sons have come a long way. Let's go and rest first. We will talk about these things tomorrow." Zhao Kuo quickly recovered, which surprised several of the disciples who were about to comfort him. Zhao Kuo looked at it calmly.
They smiled and said, "Just have a good rest, it's just a day off, there's nothing to be afraid of!" After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, everyone who was still a little restless suddenly calmed down.
The smile on Zhao Kuo's face seemed to have a different kind of convincing power.
In fact, the disciples still have a lot to say about Zhao Kuo's achievements in Bairen and the tasks Zhao Kuo ordered them to do. Especially Di, who had been stuffed up and didn't want to rest at all. He just wanted to take care of himself.
Everything they knew was told to Zhao Kuo. Xing, Li Yu, Ming and others all said goodbye to Zhao Kuo. They had their own courtyard nearby. Only Di refused to leave, staring with sad eyes.
Zhao Kuo.
Looking at Di's eyes like a resentful woman, Zhao Kuo sighed helplessly and waved. Then Di grinned, walked to Zhao Kuo's side, lit the candle, and the two sat facing each other. Zhao Kuo looked at
He asked: "Please tell me." Di cleared his throat and said excitedly: "Young Master, the war is like this. I heard that the road from Deyi to Danzhuling was cut off.
.General Lian Po is worried that the enemy will take a detour to Danzhu Mountain to attack the granary..."
"I ordered the eldest son, Zhizi, and Changping to send soldiers from three directions to support Danzhu Ridge. However, less than half an hour after the order was issued, I heard that the Qin army was storming Daliang Mountain, and General Lian Po personally led the troops.
Went to rescue Daliang Mountain, and ordered more reinforcements to be sent to Tangwang Mountain and the besieged city..." When Di recounted this, he seemed particularly excited, quite like a storyteller of later generations.
"I didn't expect that General Lian Po's reinforcements were attacked by enemy chariots south of Changping. There was a plain there. General Lian Po was leading infantry, and the fight was particularly brutal... And
When General Lian Po was in a stalemate with the opponent's chariots, Bai Qi led the main force of the Qin State to attack Changping. Changping was supported from all directions, and there was a gap in the defense. Bai Qi broke through. Bai Qi abandoned Changping and attacked directly to the rear.
granary."
"Bai Qi destroyed the grain and grass?!" Zhao Kuo jumped up suddenly, and Di hurriedly grabbed him and made him sit down again, and then said: "Young Master, don't worry, it's not that simple.
"
"After General Lian Po learned about it, he was also very uneasy. He hurriedly ordered to cut off the back road from Deyi to Baiqi. He wanted to besiege Baiqi. He took his elite troops and rushed to Zhizi to reinforce the granary. However, who would have thought that
Bai Qi's goal was not to be a granary at all. He set up an ambush halfway to attack General Lian Po's reinforcements. General Lian Po was marching in a hurry. Where could he be the opponent of the Qin army who was recharging his strength and setting up an ambush on the road?"
"Fortunately, General Lian Po took the lead and rushed out from Bai Qi's siege with his soldiers, and recaptured Changping."
"As for Bai Qi, he directly joined forces with the chariots and attacked Hanwang Mountain with the Qin army who originally attacked Daliang Mountain. Daliang Mountain was lost and the two mountains were lost... He could no longer hold on... News came from Qinyang,
It was said that he saw the Qin people's partial force, which was obviously intended to surround Danshui. General Lian Po understood the enemy's thoughts, so he led his people across Danshui to retreat. Bai Qi took the opportunity to attack, and suffered heavy casualties. Fortunately, the main force was still there, and he had food and grass.
There were no losses, and none of the generals were captured."
After talking about the battle situation, Di Fang took a breath and felt a lot more energetic. He looked at Zhao Kuo energetically and asked: "I heard that you defeated a hundred thousand troops in the Yan Kingdom...",
Zhao Kuo interrupted him hastily and said: "You go and have a rest first, and we will talk about the rest tomorrow...I am a little tired." After hearing what Zhao Kuo said, Di Ye had to reluctantly leave the inner room.
.
Zhao Kuo was sitting in the inner room. First of all, he was not sure whether the battle situation was really what Di said. After all, Di got the information from others, so there would inevitably be deviations. However, Lian Po was defeated and retreated.
It was obviously true that he had arrived in Zhao State. King Zhao had long wanted to replace Lian Po. After the news of Lian Po's defeat came, he was afraid that King Zhao would summon him.
Zhao Kuo stood at the window, frowning, looking at the bright moon in the sky, lost in thought.
The war between Wu Anjun and Ma Fujun is finally about to begin.
