Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Page 383

Under such circumstances, those who want to kill Zhao Dan may line up from the east gate of Handan to the west gate.

As soon as he entered the Northern Army camp, the shouts of the whole day came oncoming.

Along the way, Zhao Dan found that most of the Zhao troops were full of energy and well-trained during the drills, and they already looked like an elite army.

Looking at all this, Zhao Dan couldn't help but stood up to Lian Po and Ju Xin who were accompanying him: "Very well, the widow was still worried that the soldiers would become slack after a year, but now I just look at the widow like this." not worried."

The new Zhonglang General of the Northern Army who was following Zhao Dan replied very respectfully: "Your Majesty, the soldiers in the army are screaming one by one, looking forward to when they will be able to go to war."

Zhao Dan couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and said to Ju Xin: "Let these warriors of the widow wait a little longer, the time for them to flex their muscles is coming soon."

After talking, several people came to a camp in the Northern Army camp.

This camp is extremely heavily guarded. Although it is located in the Northern Army camp, it is completely separated from other camps in the Northern Army camp. It even has its own wall. It looks like an independent camp. like the Little Kingdom.

Ju Xin pointed to the camp in front of him and smiled at Zhao Dan: "Your Majesty is in a camp with armored cavalry this time."

The so-called armored cavalry is actually Zhao's heavy cavalry.

Because these heavy cavalry, both men and horses, wore armor, they were also called armored cavalry.

Not to mention, the title quickly spread as soon as it was said.

Zhao Dan nodded, and walked into the camp with armored cavalry with Lian Po and Pang Nuan.

As soon as he walked in, Zhao Dan found that the camp was full of people shouting and neighing, and many armored cavalry lined up to charge back and forth in the school grounds, which was extremely mighty.

Zhao Dan stood next to the school field, watching a group of armored cavalry shouting loudly and rushing past him with long spears, crushing all obstacles in front of him effortlessly. The two ministers laughed and said: "Wu Xinjun, Pang Qing, in your opinion, what is the combat effectiveness of this armored cavalry?"

In fact, this armored cavalry was not the one led by Li Mu in the war between Zhao State and Yan State that shined brilliantly.

The formation of the armored cavalry led by Li Mu belonged to the Northern Frontier Cavalry Regiment of Zhao State, while the formation of the armored cavalry in front of him completely belonged to the Northern Army of Zhao State, or the Central Army.

After all, no matter what, the Central Army is the core force that Zhao Dan relies on to conquer the world, so it is obvious that the ace troops such as armored cavalry should be given to the Central Army.

So now there are two armored cavalry, one is led by Li Mu and is located in the northern frontier cavalry regiment, and the other is in front of Zhao Dan.

After watching carefully for a long while, Lian Po nodded and said, "Return to Your Majesty, in my opinion, this armored cavalry has been well trained, and it's time to send it to the battlefield."

Pang Nuan on the other side also nodded, agreeing to Lian Po's opinion.

"Very good." Zhao Dan saw that the two giants of the military expressed their approval of the combat effectiveness of this new armored cavalry, so he didn't talk nonsense, and directly said to Ju Xin, "If that's the case, then Ju Xin General, let this cavalry get ready and go north some day."

"This..." Ju Xin couldn't help being a little stunned when he heard this. You must know that this armored cavalry is the heart and soul of the Central Army of the State of Zhao. Why did it suddenly get the side cavalry regiment again?

Just when Ju Xin was in a daze, Pang Nuan, Ju Xin's old boss and good friend suddenly coughed, and said, "General Ju Xin, why don't you hurry up and take orders?"

Ju Xin looked up at Pang Nuan subconsciously, but saw Pang Nuan blinking mysteriously, and then came back to his senses.

Could it be that there is going to be a war in the north?

Thinking of this, all the entanglements in Ju Xin's heart immediately dissipated, and he bowed to Zhao Dan, and said loudly: "Here!"

After leaving the camp, Zhao Dan said to Lian Po and Pang Nuan: "Looking at this journey, I feel that the morale is available now, and it's time to go on foreign expeditions. I wonder what the two Qing families think?"

Upon hearing this, Lian Po immediately said, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Pang Nuan also said: "I am willing to be the pioneer of the king, and crusade against the rebels!"

Zhao Dan couldn't help laughing as he looked at the two generals who were begging for a fight.

"Since this is the case, it is convenient to call the ministers to discuss this matter tomorrow. It happens that the widows also feel that it is time to expand the territory!"

Chapter 379 Where to choose as the attack direction? (fourth more)

The next morning, seven important ministers of Zhao State gathered in the main hall of Longtai in Handan.

Sitting on the highest throne, Zhao Dan looked around at the many ministers of Zhao Guo present, and said slowly: "My dear family, I called you here today to discuss the matter of dispatching troops. The two of you I inspected the camps of the Southern Army and the Northern Army respectively, and felt that the soldiers of the Central Army had already recharged their energy and recharged their batteries. It is time to open up the territory and make Zhao Guo a higher level! I don’t know what you think how?"

Since the Qi had already been passed in advance, none of the Zhao Guozhong ministers present showed a surprised expression on their faces.

On the contrary, they have been looking forward to it for a long time.

So as soon as Zhao Dan's words fell, Zhao Guoxiangbang Zhao Sheng immediately said: "The words of the king are indeed reasonable. Since the battle of Hedong County, our Zhao Guo's elite soldiers have been silent for a year. It is time to send troops out of Handan. The world knows the power of Zhao!"

All Zhao Guozhong ministers spoke one after another, expressing their approval of the decision to send troops.

After all, the current state of Zhao is just at the peak of its power. If we don't take advantage of this moment to expand our borders, when will we have to wait?

Among them, the two military giants Lian Po and Pang Ran are the most resolute. Seeing how impatient they are, they can't wait to set off immediately tomorrow.

Zhao Dan looked at the full fighting spirit of Zhao Guo's important officials in front of him, and was very pleased in his heart, and said with a smile: "In this case, according to the opinions of your family, where should the widow use his troops next? "

Zhao Guo is located in the Central Plains, which can be said to be a typical place of the Four Wars, which also brings up a problem. There are too many targets to fight. Which one should we fight first?

The reason why Zhao Dan had a meeting today was to solve this problem.

Lian Po said without any hesitation: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, Qin is no longer a problem. Right now, we should focus our attack on Qi, lest Qi take the opportunity to regain strength and endanger Zhao."

Zhao Dan looked at Lian Po amusedly. This General Lian Po, who claims to eat and sleep against Qi, really has a very strong desire to attack Qi.

But to be honest, attacking Qi is actually not a bad choice.

After all, Qi State is a very rich country. In terms of wealth, it can definitely rank among the top three in the Warring States Period. If Zhao State can win the war with Qi State, it will definitely be able to win a lot of wealth.

In order to maintain such a huge military force, Zhao Guo's financial burden is very heavy, and Yu Xin has cried poor with Zhao Dan more than once.

But Lian Po's opinion was opposed almost immediately, and it was none other than Xiangbang Zhao Sheng who had spoken just now.

I saw Zhao Sheng shook his head at Lian Po's opinion, and said very disapprovingly: "Zhao Sheng can't agree with Wu Xinjun's words. Now, although my Zhao State has defeated Qin twice in a row in the battle between Changping and Hedong. State, but Qin State still owns Guanzhong, Hexi, Shangjun, Bashu and half of Nanyang County, both in terms of land area and population, it ranks among the top among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, and it only needs one battle to re-emerge. Such a strong Enemy, how can you ignore it?"

When Zhao Sheng said this, he waved his hand very resolutely, and said: "In my opinion, we should continue to attack Qin State now until we capture Guanzhong of Qin State. Once Guanzhong falls into the hands of Zhao State, then Qin State will really be safe , while my state of Zhao can advance, attack, retreat, and defend, and its power is stronger than that of the Jin state back then. In this way, why worry that the world is not owned by the state of Zhao?"

Lian Po's eyelids twitched a little when he heard this, and he immediately retorted: "Mr. Pingyuan's words are wrong. I think Qin is just a group of barbarians. Even if these barbarians are included in Zhao, they must be included." If you don’t obey Wang Hua, don’t listen to discipline, what’s the use of coming here? It’s better to enter the rich land of Qi State in the east and make Zhao State truly rich and strong, this is the right way to conquer the world!”

Lian Po and Zhao Sheng disagreed with each other, and for a while they couldn't stop arguing.

In fact, not only these two ministers have their own ideas, but even other ministers have different opinions.

Uncle Li said: "Your Majesty, the State of Wei has always been extremely dissatisfied with being subordinate to the State of Zhao in the Three-Jin Alliance, and in the previous Battle of Hedong County, Wei Wuji was obedient to the order of the King, and now there are reports that the State of Wei Colluding secretly with Qin State, Wei State should be the target of crusade."

Pang Nuan thought for a while and said, "My lord, South Korea is now the weakest country among the Seven Kingdoms, so it is better to attack South Korea."

These ministers talked to each other, each had their own ideas, and each had their own country they wanted to attack. Zhao Dan was also unbearably disturbed by making a Longtai hall noisy.

After a while, seeing that these ministers were really arguing, Zhao Dan finally couldn't bear it anymore, knocked on the table in front of him, and shouted: "All of you are ministers of Zhao Guo, so noisy, it's a big deal! What system?"

In the hall, it became quiet.
