Chapter 760: An Untimely Quarrel (Addendum 8)
As soon as Lian Po heard Pang Xuan's words, he was immediately unhappy: "Pang Qing, what do you mean by this?" ”
As the general of Zhao State, Pang Xuan is actually still Lian Po's subordinate, and now he is slapped in the face by his nominal subordinate in public, no one can bear it.
Pang Xuan said slowly: "Don't the generals know that the offensive line of this drama Xin was decided by Le Cheng, who was the main general, and that the drama Xin was just acting on orders. Since he was acting on orders, if something went wrong, the first thing that should be investigated was the person who gave the order to Ji Xin, how could this fault be placed on Ji Xin's head? ”
Lian Po snorted and said, "You are not the main general of the front line, how do you know that it is an order from Lecheng?" Maybe it's that kind of intention, and I don't know if I make my own opinions. ”
This is somewhat of a rhetoric.
Pang Xuan smiled and said to Lian Po: "Ju Xin has become extremely calm and cautious since the defeat in the last battle of Hedong County, and now at such a critical moment in the war for the country, how can he dare to make such a self-made claim and tell the truth?" If the general doesn't want to believe it, then just send someone to investigate. ”
There was a needle hidden in these words, so that Lian Po really couldn't say anything to refute for a while, after all, everyone heard the hint in Pang Xuan's words, and the current drama Xin is holding back his strength to compete for the position of the eighth giant that will appear in the future, how could he be stupid enough to make a big mistake at this time to give a oral test?
Speaking of which, the main thing is that General Lian Po is best at fighting wars after all, rather than this kind of quarrel above the court.
If each leads an army to fight on the battlefield, Pang Xuan is likely not to be Lian Po's opponent. But now it is on this kind of battlefield where words are not used, so Pang Xuan naturally takes a big advantage.
Fortunately, Lian Po is not alone in the fight.
Yu Xin coughed lightly and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that the front-line generals are working hard for the country, we are arguing endlessly in the rear, this is not the proper duty of the country, it is better to focus the eyes on this war." ”
As soon as Yu Xin's words came out, Lian Po couldn't help but be stunned, and then a trace of anger immediately appeared on his face, and he said in his heart that this Yu Xin was too unrighteous, and he obviously said that he would find an opportunity to make a wave of trouble to Ju Xin today, but when it came to the end, Yu Xin's words turned out to be a little bit of retreat in Li Mu.
Lian Po looked at Yu Xin angrily, but found that Yu Xin was quietly squeezing his eyebrows and winking at him, as if he was hinting at something.
Lian Po suddenly came to his senses, and subconsciously glanced at Zhao Dan, who was sitting at the top, only to find that his king's face was already clouded.
Lian Po finally understood, why Yu Xin had the strange behavior just now, it turned out that the root was here.
The king was obviously not satisfied with this kind of mutual attack.
This time it was originally to compete for favor in front of the king, and if the king was disgusted with himself because of this topic, it would undoubtedly outweigh the losses.
So Lian Po stopped the conversation very wisely, and turned to Zhao Dan and said: "King, the minister thinks that he should give an order to Lecheng as soon as possible, so that Lecheng can occupy all the territories between the agreements while maintaining the siege of Suiyang, so that he can have more time to continue south." ”
South?
Yes, Zhao Guo still wants to continue south.
According to the agreement between Zhao and Han and Chu, the Koreans are now trying to attack the western part of Wei, while the Zhao people mainly gain the north, and the Chu people get the land in the south that was originally occupied by the Wei people.
If you really follow this regulation, then you will find that the land obtained by the Zhao State is actually a little more than that of the Chu State.
Zhao Dan actually doesn't have many opinions on this, but is the focus on land this time? Of course not! This time the focus was on the destruction of the Wei state.
Therefore, when the people of Chu were unable to open the situation in the south, it was natural for the Zhao army, who had completed the task ahead of schedule, to go south to help Chu in order to destroy the Wei state.
Since you have gone south, it is not unusual to fight a few cities and eliminate the war power of Wei by the way, right?
In the best case, it is likely that the Chu people would not be able to defeat the main force of the Wei army led by Tian Chong until the main force of the late Zhao State came to join them.
At that time, after removing the land occupied by the Koreans, almost half of the remaining Wei state would be occupied by the Zhao state.
Although it is said that everyone's prior agreement is the same thing, but now these lands are occupied by the widow's soldiers, if the widows return to your Chu State, the soldiers are afraid that they will not agree, and the widows are also very embarrassed, right?
Therefore, Zhao Dan felt that as long as he took out so many small and insignificant lands to the people of Chu at that time, it would be almost the same.
If the State of Chu insists on pursuing it, then Le Cheng can also lead the main force of the Zhao army under his command to reason with the people of Chu, and I believe that the monarchs and ministers of the State of Chu will be happy to accept the truth of the State of Zhao.
In a way, when your fist is big enough, a lot of things become very simple.
Anything like a diplomatic strategy will only happen when the force is not enough to overthrow all opponents, and this has been the case for thousands of years.
If I can slap you to death, what reason do I have to tell you, you have to do whatever you want, or you will die.
This kind of thinking is the so-called great-power chauvinism, or hegemonism.
However, Zhao is originally a big country and a hegemon, so if you do this, there is nothing wrong with it.
At least Zhao Guo thinks so from top to bottom, from Zhao Dan to the common people.
Although Zhao Guo does not yet have the kind of overwhelming power that can be seen at a glance, Zhao Dan feels from the bottom of his heart that the day when he has the power to fan whoever he wants is not very far away.
To a certain extent, at this time, the monarchs and ministers of Zhao above the Handan court had more or less different degrees of pride and complacency in their hearts, which is the emotion that people must produce after successive victories, and it can be said that it is a kind of inferior nature of people.
It was precisely because of this that what they did not discover was that an undercurrent against Zhao Guo had been conceived from the mouth of a dying person in Lantian City, and it was already quietly surging in the dark.
