When Zhao Dan received this piece from Li Mu, he was a little surprised in his heart.

and reflection.

"So, is the widow too optimistic?"

For the current Zhao State, the battle to destroy Qi is undoubtedly the most critical, so after Zhao Dan was silent for a long time, he ordered someone to convene all the important ministers of Longtai and held a military meeting.

At this meeting, Zhao Dan circulated this recital, and then asked: "In the opinion of the emperors, how should this matter be decided?" ”

After learning about Li Mu's recital, the ministers had different expressions.

Zhao Sheng pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "Great King, the minister thinks that the Metropolitan Governor has never been untargeted, since he has made such a request, then he must have encountered some trouble in the battle situation in Gaowan City. If we can send a partial division to help, it will indeed be able to play a great role in the main force of our army. ”

Zhao Sheng's idea is actually very simple, the current Zhao State really does not lack this partial division of soldiers and horses, whether it is 50,000 or 100,000, Zhao Guo can quickly recruit and transfer to the front line within half a month.

As long as you can take the Qi State safely and steadily, it is actually not a big deal to mobilize some troops so much.

What's more, Li Mu is in the limelight now, and Zhao Sheng doesn't want to offend Li Mu because of such a thing.

But some people don't think the same as Zhao Sheng.

I saw General Lian Po say in a loud voice: "King, the old minister thinks that Li Mu's words are a bit exaggerated. The old ministers of the Qi country know very well that their combat effectiveness seems to be strong, but they are actually quite average! Now that this Gao Wancheng can't be taken, it may not really be that the soldiers are too proud and complacent, maybe there is another reason! If the king is willing to give the old minister a chance, then the old minister will definitely be able to break through Gao Wan and take Linzi, and capture the king of Qi in front of the king! ”

As soon as Lian Po's words came out, even Zhao Dan couldn't help but be surprised.

It can be seen that this general's desire to fight is really very strong.

It's understandable to think about it, after all, Lian Po is known for beating Qi Guo violently, and this time he will not let Lian Po be the main general, obviously this veteran doesn't say it in his mouth, and he still has opinions in his heart.

In view of Zhao Dan's prestige, if this is not the case, then it is estimated that Lian Po will not say much, but now that he has the opportunity to fight for it, Lian Po will naturally not let go of this opportunity.

But in this way, Lian Po is obviously going to offend Li Mu.

But the old general didn't really care about that.

Because Li Mu grew up too fast.

Eight years ago, Lian Po felt that Li Mu should be the next generation of famous generals of Zhao State.

Five years ago, Lian Po felt that Li Mu might soon be able to come out and become his right-hand man.

Three years ago, Lian Po already regarded Li Mu as a famous general of the same level as himself.

Now, Lian Po feels that Li Mu can even challenge his status!

Lian Po is actually not worried about Pang Xuan and Ju Xin, because these two are older than Lian Po, but their combat exploits are not as prominent as Lian Po.

But Li Mu is different.

With Li Mu's victories again and again, the domestic appeal for Li Mu to be crowned as a monarch in Zhao is gradually rising.

Once Li Mu was crowned king, then whether it was a title or a military exploit, it was completely the same as Lian Po.

At that time, Li Mu will be completely able to replace Lian Po.

Such a situation may happen as soon as Li Mu destroys the Qi State!

Lian Po is a very strong person, and he was already very dissatisfied with being suppressed by Zhao Hao back then, so he joined forces with Lin Xiangru to form an alliance, forming the cloth faction among the two major factions of Zhao State today.

Now that he is about to get old, he is going to be overpressed by Li Mu again? This result is unacceptable.

And Lian Po thinks that his qualifications are here, even if he fails in the end, Zhao Dan will not be able to do anything to himself, so this time it can be said that he has won a lot of money, and he will not lose if he loses, it is completely worth a try.

The people present were all human spirits, so after a short period of silent thinking, they naturally had already guessed Lian Po's thoughts.

Ju Xin and Zhao Sheng exchanged a look, and then said: "The general's words are wrong, I think that when the battle of Changping was in the past, there was also a saying that the general should be changed, but fortunately, Wang Yingming did not replace the general in the end, so there was the victory in the battle of Changping later." Now the situation of the war situation in Qi is far better than that of Changping back then, how can it be easy to change generals at this time and mess up the morale of the front-line army? ”

"Not bad." Zhao Sheng also immediately said: "You must know that the reason why the Yan Kingdom failed to destroy Qi back then was precisely because King Yan Hui was gullible and ordered the robbery to replace Le Yi, which led to An Pingjun's victory in Jimo." The king is so wise, I don't think he will repeat the mistakes of King Yan Hui. ”

After a pause, Zhao Sheng continued: "The king, the minister thinks that the king has a good way to lead the troops, and has repeatedly made military exploits for the king and the Zhao country, the king is not as good as the fate of the drama Xin to lead this partial division to attack the Qi country, which just echoes the north and south of the metropolitan governor, so it is not difficult to destroy Qi!" ”

After Lian Po took the lead, Zhao Sheng and Ju Xin also immediately launched a counterattack.

Because these two people suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity to draw Li Mu to their side, and by the way, they could also push Ji Xin to the position of the master general, why not?

It is absolutely impossible for a general like Lian Po to lead a partial division to give Li Mu a hand, but Ju Xin can.

After all, Ju Xin has served as a deputy general in many wars for so many years, so it is no problem for Ju Xin to lead this partial division, and he can also make some military exploits by the way, which is simply great.

Regarding the good calculations of Zhao Sheng and the others, Yu Xin naturally watched the fire, and immediately said: "The king, the minister thinks that the transfer of this army is not an easy thing, and the partial division is not in the plan, if it is a temporary transfer, it will also recruit many young and strong people to accompany the army, and the production in various places will also be affected, please be cautious." ”

Of course, Yu Xin was on Lian Po's side, but Yu Xin was not as direct as Lian Po, but by denying the idea of falling out of the biased teacher, he denied Li Mu, so as to achieve the goal of saving the country with a curve.

The two sides engaged in a very heated debate.

Zhao Dan knocked on the table and said in a deep voice: "Okay, Pingyuanjun, Wu Xinjun, don't quarrel with you." In this way, all the secretaries will make a statement to show the widow. ”

The ministers have clearly become accustomed to this, and they have expressed their attitudes.

It is hoped that Lian Po will replace Li Mu, and those who oppose a partial division include Lian Po himself, Yu Xin, and Li Bo.

opposed Lian Po to replace Li Mu, and supported a partial division of Zhao Sheng and Ju Xin.

It was clear and unexpected, and it was not unexpected at all.

Except for Li Mu and Pang Xuan, who were absent, Zheng Zhu and Li Si were left without expressing their position.

According to common sense, it should be Zheng Zhu who spoke first, but this time Li Si preemptively said: "King, I think that the war is going well now, and it is really inappropriate to change the main general of the front line without permission, so it is better to follow the proposal of the Metropolitan Governor and send a partial division to assist the attack." ”

As soon as Li Si opened his mouth, a thought came to the minds of all the ministers: "It is said that the Metropolitan Governor often invited Li Si to drink and hunt together when he was in Handan, and it seems that the relationship between these two people is really extraordinary." ”

The votes became three to three, and everyone's eyes turned to the last minister of Zhao who did not express his position - Zheng Zhu.

Zheng Zhu is a special person in the Zhao Kingdom, and he seems to be a natural supporter of the Gong clan faction based on his background, but Zheng Zhu has always been between the two factions, sometimes supporting this side and sometimes supporting that side, which is unpredictable.

Zheng Zhu thought for a while, glanced at Zhao Dan, and then said slowly: "The king, the minister thinks that the governor of the capital has been fighting in the grassland for many years, and most of his subordinates are cavalry. Now that it is the first time to command an infantry army, it is normal to be a little uncomfortable. ”

When Zheng Zhu said this, Zhao Sheng and Ju Xin's faces couldn't help but be a little ugly, while Lian Po and Yu Xin glanced at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.

Could it be that Zheng Zhu wants to support the replacement of Li Mu?

I saw Zheng Zhu say next: "But the command ability of the Grand Governor has been tested for so many years, and has been recognized and praised by the world. Since this is the case, it is obviously quite inappropriate to rashly change generals when the Metropolitan Governor has the advantage. Therefore, the minister felt that he should still support the proposal of the metropolitan governor, and attack the Qi country in two ways. ”

As soon as Zheng Zhu's voice fell, there was silence in the hall.

Zhao Sheng and Ju Xin turned their worries into joy, while Lian Po and Yu Xin had solemn faces.

But they still have one last glimmer of hope, and that is to see what Zhao Dan means.

As long as Zhao Dan speaks, then even if everyone is completely unanimous, it can be overturned.

There is no way, Zhao Dan's prestige is too high, and the monarch's power is too strong, as long as he speaks, no matter how dissatisfied and opposed the ministers are, they can only pinch their noses and agree.

But the scene that Lian Po and Yu Xin were expecting did not happen.

Zhao Dan glanced around at the ministers present, and then opened his mouth to make a final decision.

"Since this is the case, then according to the request of the Governor of Li Mu, the 30,000 Central Army led by Juqing will go south, and then the county soldiers from the counties of Huaibei, Wei, and Lu will form a force of 80,000 soldiers and horses to attack the country from the south!"
