Chapter 12: Calculation

Zhao Kuo found Lian Jin from a dilapidated mansion and fled the tunnel, nearly ten years have passed, and the tunnel can still be passed smoothly, which shows that a lot of thought must have been wasted when it was built.

The choice of excavation location is also particular, the soil can not be too loose, too loose and easy to collapse, the same to avoid the water source, once dug to the water source tunnel can not pass.

Pushing away the boulder and drilling out of the tunnel, I saw the camp of the Qin army from a distance in the night, as well as the Handan City hidden in the light of the torches, and the tunnel through the guò tunnel entered the outer city from the inside of Handan City, so it was surprising that Lian Jin was injured that day and escaped with the help of the tunnel.

"Go back to Handan first."

Several people worked together to push the boulder back to the position of the cave entrance, everyone entered in turn, Mu Chen's body grabbed the bulge of the boulder with both arms and pulled inward, the hole was dark, the torch was lit again, and the direction could be completely discerned after investigation.

Zhao Kuo's figure stopped, and the location at this time should be where the camp of the Qin army was located, and through the ground, the neighing of the war horses of the Qin army's camp could be faintly heard, and the soldiers were shaking back and forth to inspect their footsteps.

No matter how smart Bai Qi is, he can't guess this.

Speaking of the Qin army camp alone, the city wall was captured in one day, and the morale was greatly boosted, and some people even began to imagine the situation of attacking Handan City.

In the big tent, Bai Qi, Lü Buwei and other generals gathered, torches were lit, and there was a picture in front of them, which was the layout of Handan and the city wall, each of which was marked with the number of soldiers that the city wall could hold, the most suitable defense method and offensive method were listed one by one.

Lü Buwei had already prepared, and took the opportunity of the business to secretly order people to draw all the cities of various countries, the purpose was very clear, and his daily army attack and march map could become the eyes of the army, of course, if you want to get this information, you will inevitably pay some price.

If you can exchange some material things for benefits, and then get more benefits, there must be people who are willing to do so, so it is also the way to be an official, spending a lot of effort and financial resources to get an official position, and what you think about must not be how to do good things for the people, but how to get back what you have paid and then get more benefits.

Lü Buwei scattered all his family wealth to assist the down-and-out prince of Qin, and now Zichu has succeeded him as the king of Qin, Lü Buwei is also in a high position, and his daily income is far from being comparable to usual.

Lü Buwei said: "Handan City has two inner and outer cities, among which there is a royal city, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, this few months have passed, it is inevitable that a long time will change, when the early capture of Handan, a qiē also depends on the generals." ”

After Lu Buwei finished speaking, he looked around at everyone, only a few generals looked at him, and the others bowed their heads and were silent, Lu Buwei knew in his heart that only these few were won over by himself with money, and the other people were all white henchmen, so it was enough, and it was often easiest to disintegrate from the inside.

Bai Qi saw it in his eyes, "Handan City has thick walls, if you forcibly attack it, the casualties will be heavy, if you have a way to break the city, you can speak freely." ”

The voice fell, and one person stood up, "Your Majesty, the way to attack the city lies in the strength and power of the army, and now our army is fully equipped, when we attack to the death, do not give the Zhao people any respite, and attack Handan with the advantage." ”

"Yes, what the Zhao people rely on is nothing more than the advantage of a bow and crossbow, as long as they conquer the city gate Handan, they will definitely be able to get it."

The defense method used by the Zhao people in the face of the Qin army's offensive can be seen clearly, mostly based on bow and crossbow shooting, once the Qin army attacks and retreats immediately, most of the big tents are battle-hardened generals, and they know in their hearts that they are completely exposed, and the Zhao State has insufficient troops, and the number of troops that can be killed in close quarters in the city is limited, so it will be so.

Bai Qi's face sank, "The Zhao people have been running Handan for many years, such a high city lacks siege weapons, and the casualties of manpower alone must be several times that of the other party, since it can't be attacked, how can it be attacked!" ”

There was deterrence in his voice, and the generals looked at each other, and Lu Buwei let out a sneer, "Lu has a plan, I don't know if it's feasible." ”

"Your Excellency, please speak!"

Lü Buwei stood up, "Just as Wu Anjun said, Handan City has thick walls, and the price to pay if you want to forcibly enter it is unimaginable, so it is most unwise, since the external attack cannot be successful, simply think of ideas from the inside." ”

"Internal?"

Everyone didn't know why, and their eyes came one after another, but seeing Lu Buwei's smug face, he said in white: "Daliangzao don't sell Guanzi." ”

Lu Buwei said with a smile: "Lu was born in a businessman, and there are businesses in various places, and it happens that Handan City also has it, and he secretly ordered someone to sneak into Handan as an internal response. ”

One person said happily: "It's still thoughtful to the adults, if you can break through the city gate from inside and outside, Handan can be light!" ”

"What General He said is that Daliang's method of building a broken city is very wonderful."

Both of them were bought by Lu Buwei, and they couldn't help but come out and pat their ass, Bai Qi disagreed, "Da Liangzao may ignore one point, that is, Zhao Jun is armed, Zhao Kuo is extremely careful, a certain number of troops must be arranged at the city gate, and the Chamber of Commerce alone may not be able to succeed." ”

Lu Buwei nodded, "It is not unreasonable for the king to be worried, the people of the Chamber of Commerce will inevitably arouse Zhao Jun's vigilance, even if it is not easy to get close, but there are some people who must be able to." ”

"Oh?" Bai frowned, and Lu Buwei smiled: "Zhao Ren." ”

"Zhao Ren?"

"Yes, it's Zhao people, although Zhao Kuo is now the king of Zhao, he has a very high prestige in the hearts of Zhao people, but don't forget, Zhao Kuo's succession to the throne has always been unjustifiable, and there are still many people in Handan City who are loyal to the deceased King Huiwen, but because of Zhao Kuo's power, if you can take this power for your own use, Handan can get it!"

"Handan clan!"

Bai nodded, "This method is feasible, this monarch also got the news, Zhao Kuo as the king after wantonly depriving the clan of power and land, for this the clan has a grudge, but also regards Zhao Kuo as an enemy, but now the two countries see each other, once the city of Handan is broken, the clan must worry about their own interests, so how is it good?" ”

Lü Buwei said with a smile: "This is the simplest, restore the former glory of the family and re-elect the new king of Zhao, this move of Qin is just an act that cannot tolerate Zhao Kuo's usurpation, not to raise troops to destroy Zhao." ”

"Wonderful, really wonderful."

Lü Buwei Shili, "The king praises that there is still a lack of one person in this law, a person who can replace Zhao Kuo." ”

"Zhao Wangdan!"

Lu Buwei nodded, "This person seems to be weak and incompetent, but it is indeed a sharp sword that can go straight to Zhao Kuo's vital point." ”

"So what are you waiting for!"

The Qin army attacked, Zhao Dan hid in the corner and kept shivering, just wanted to live a stable life, Zhao Mu's betrayal made Zhao Dan sad, and the most real warmth instantly turned into a cold sword tip, only hating that the sword was not stabbed, if he could rather die, than accept such torture again.

From the high-ranking king of Zhao State to today's Xiaoyao Marquis, no one knows about his inner depression, only to get drunk all day long, not looking forward to this life, only to be a good man in the next life, to be a man for a real time, no longer looked down upon, no longer bullied.

"Meet King Zhao."

The generals of the Qin army were also polite, and Zhao Dan waved his hand again and again, "You must have admitted your mistake, the widow is not King Zhao." ”

The generals of the Qin army sneered, "In the eyes of the Qin people, there will always be only one king in the Zhao country, and Zhao Kuo's retrograde behavior will inevitably be intolerable to the world. ”

"Back to Handan?"

Zhao Dan stood up, his eyes were full of disbelief, and several attendants stepped forward, and one of them said happily: "Congratulations to the king, it must be that several other lords learned of Zhao Kuo's evil deeds so they jointly sent troops to fight." ”

"Yes, Zhao Kuo's perverse behavior is a thief of rebellion, and God is still fair after all."

"This, the widow can still go back to Handan to be the king?" Zhao Dan looked at the person who came, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

The general of the Qin army nodded, "The king is the lord of the Zhao country, how can he not!" ”

"It's true, widows really can!" Zhao Dan's face was happy, since he left Handan, he was depressed all day long, and his mother couldn't afford to be sick, but now he can finally raise his eyebrows.

"Congratulations, the king." Several chamberlains knelt on the ground, in the past, they followed Zhao Dan to show off their might, but now they lost their position and feared reprisals, so they simply left Handan, how can they compare with Handan's wealth, and they are even more jealous of Zhao Kuo in their hearts.

"Okay, okay, Benhou, no, the widow will go to Handan immediately."
