Chapter 1038 Zhao Guo fights for Han
Xianyang.
At this time, King Qin's face was gloomy, his eyebrows were constricted, and he kept going back and forth in front of the throne, as if he couldn't make up his mind.
On the other side, Qin Guozuo Prime Minister Lou slowly saw Qin Wangdang constantly moving in front of him, so he stood quietly in front of Qin Wangdang, and was silent, this time, he came to persuade Qin Wangdang to agree to Zhao Guo's request and let Prince Han take the throne.
Just when the two monarchs and ministers were silent, a waiter's voice came from outside the hall: "The king, the minister Gongsun Hao asks to see you." ”
King Qin was stunned for a moment, and immediately responded: "Pass." ”
"Yui."
Soon, Gongsun Hao hurriedly walked in, and then arched his hand and said: "Great King, the news from the Chu State, not long ago, the King of Chu issued an edict in Fangcheng to mobilize the people over the age of fourteen in the county to fight. Among them, all the men are asked to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and the women among them are involved in transporting supplies.
But we reported from some spies in Hanbei that they found that many strong women were also issued weapons by the Chu people, and some Chu soldiers trained them, so the spies in Hanbei suspected that once the war was unfavorable to the Chu State, perhaps these strong women would also be transferred to the battlefield by the King of Chu.
At the same time, in order to motivate the people, the king of Chu has officially changed the law in northern Han, and it is said that the content of the change of the king of Chu in northern Han is similar to that of my Qin state, and he will be promoted to a knight if he cuts off a head. ”
When Qin Wangdang heard this, he immediately gasped.
The king of Chu is crazy!
If he does this, even if he succeeds in defending Hanbei County in the end, how many people will be left in Hanbei County.
What's more, the army is mixed with a large number of untrained young and weak people, plus the old and frail old people, how much combat power does such an army have!
In this regard, Qin Wangdang said that he had the most say in this kind of thing, after all, only Qin Guo had done it before.
A hundred years ago, in order to deal with Wei, the Qin State also did a thing where the men of the country went to the battlefield and the women transferred grain.
As a result, the 500,000 army, mixed with a large number of old and young, was vulnerable to the 50,000 recruits led by Wu Qi, and it was about to collapse at the first touch. If it weren't for the fact that Wu Qi, who finally advocated the destruction of Qin, was suspicious of King Wu of Wei, he had to abandon his army and flee to Chu shortly after the great victory over Qin, and that time, Qin might have died.
Even if the Qin state was finally saved, and even in the following decades, the Wei state did not use troops against the Qin state, but even so, the Qin state still spent nearly thirty years to recuperate, and even abolished the living burial system that had existed since ancient times in order to increase the population.
Thinking of this, Qin Wangdang wanted to mock the king of Chu for jumping off the wall in a hurry.
It's just that as soon as the words came to his mouth, Qin Wangdang couldn't help but hesitate when he remembered that Hanbei County was just a county of Chu State, and then his face turned gloomy, and a thousand words finally turned into one sentence: "Chu State is really big." ”
Lou Zhuan Gongsun Hao was suddenly startled by Qin Wangdang's sudden foul language, and then the two of them lowered their heads at the same time, pretending not to hear Qin Wangdang's words.
It's just that Lou slowly lowered his head, and suddenly remembered that it seemed that the affairs of Chu State were very beneficial to him.
Thinking about it, Lou Chu immediately raised his head, then looked at King Qin and said, "The king, the matter is urgent, the minister asks the king to immediately agree to Zhao Guo's request and let Prince Han take the throne." ”
When Qin Wang Dang heard this, he immediately shook his head: "It's not proper, this matter is inappropriate." ”
When Lou heard this, he didn't give up, and immediately stepped forward and said again: "King, if you keep interrupting, you will suffer from it." Now the war of the Five Kingdoms against Chu has entered the final cut, and the 100,000 troops of the Wei State have received Fangcheng.
And the king of Chu has now personally made the town of Fangcheng, leading a group of ruffians and nobles mixed with more than half of the old and weak army, and the people of the whole county, are desperately blocking the Wei army.
Now that the Wei and Han coalition forces are fighting fiercely with the Chu army in Fangcheng, the Chu State has shown that it is unsustainable, and even women have gone to the battlefield. Such a Chu State, if it is fast, it will be three months, and if it is slow, it will be half a year, and the Chu State will definitely be defeated.
At this moment, as long as the last breath of Chu is defeated, then the entire Hanbei County, as well as the two counties of Hanzhong and Shangyong in the west of Hanbei County after taking Hanbei County, will be owned by the Qin State, and at this moment, the Chu State must not be given a chance to breathe.
And now, the only one in the world who can rescue Chu is Zhao State, Chu State Zuo Yin Zhao often in order to lobby Zhao State to send troops to rescue, has spent nearly 10,000 gold in Handan, and is still stranded in Handan and has not returned.
And Chu Gongzi Ziqing, who was good friends with Lord Zhao's eldest son, was also constantly passing through the channels of Gongzi Zhang, hoping to persuade Lord Zhao's father to send troops to save Chu.
Now on the Zhao side, the people who were bought and persuaded by Zhao Chang, as well as Gongzizhang's henchmen, and a large number of generals who were eager to make meritorious contributions, were all lobbying Zhao's father to send troops to save Chu.
Therefore, at this moment, we must not push the Zhao State to the side of the Chu State. ”
When Qin Wang heard this, the wrinkles on his forehead suddenly deepened.
Of course, he knew the situation on Zhao's side, but now that Zhao Guo asked Gongzi Zhang to lead the army to send the Han prince Jise back to China, once he agreed to Zhao's father's request and let the crown prince Jise take the throne, then the Qin State would lose Korea.
What's even more terrifying is that the crown prince Jise grew up in the Chu State since he was a child, and he is the same brother as the prince of Chu, and the same father and son as the king of Chu.
At the same time, the relationship between Chu and Zhao has been very good for more than 100 years, especially the previous and this operation to attack Chu, Zhao did not participate in it, and even maintained an alliance with Chu.
Therefore, as long as he promised to let the crown prince of Han Jise ascend the throne now, in the near future, he could foresee that an alliance composed of the three kingdoms of Chu, Zhao and Han would definitely span the east of the Qin State.
And this, for the Qin State, the threat is too great.
On the other side, Lou saw that the hesitation on Qin Wangdang's face was even heavier, and continued: "Great King, don't hesitate any longer, it is nothing at all for a mere Hanbei County of Korea and Chu State.
South Korea is only a thousand miles in size, and the seventeen counties in Hanbei are also nearly a thousand miles away, even if the king keeps South Korea now, it is just one more ally.
The northern part of Hanbei is different, Wancheng is the world's famous iron-smelting center, its scale is no less than Yiyang in South Korea, the seventeen counties of northern Hanbei, there is Fangcheng in the north, there is Hanshui in the south, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
As long as the king obtains Hanbei County this time, then Hanbei will all become the territory of Qin, and then Hanzhong Shangyong will also be owned by Qin, which is the credit of expanding the land for nearly 2,000 miles, and most of them are anointed land, such a feat is the most of the kings of Qin, although Mu Gong Xiaogong can not be compared with the king.
The three counties of Hanbei and Hanzhong are owned by the Qin State, which is the eternal foundation of the Qin State.
Two thousand miles to follow the foundation of Qianqiu, and an ally that may betray at any time, which is more important, I hope that the king will make a clear decision. ”
When Qin Wang heard this, he looked at the building in front of him, and did not answer him immediately, but walked back and forth in front of the stage twice, and then walked around twice.
At this time, Lou Shu saw this, and couldn't help but secretly get anxious, he already vaguely understood Qin Wangdang's concerns in his heart, but he was now the prime minister of Qin, and some words could not be put out of his mouth, otherwise, he would be disloyal to King Qin.
At this moment, he can only hope that the envoy of Zhao State can quickly arrive in Xianyang, and then deal with the affairs of Korea as soon as possible, you know, now that King Han has only his last breath left, who knows how long King Han can hold out!
In case...
Just thinking about it, someone outside the hall reported: "The king, Zhao Guoxiang Guo Feiyi is visiting." ”
When Lou heard this, his heart was suddenly relieved, and this master finally came.
