Chapter 625: Handan Comes

The Dai army was stationed in Jingcheng for three or four days, and suddenly someone reported to the plateau that Wu Lie of Handan, together with the Haoqiang clan of Zhao State, sent several representatives to Jingcheng and asked to enter the plateau. It is said that he was entrusted by the powerful clan of Handan to meet with the plateau, express support to the plateau, and ask the plateau to send troops to attack Handan and completely expel the Qin army from Zhao.

Wu Lie was originally a military general of Zhao State, Lian Po's old department, and later abandoned the official for the people, opened a martial arts hall in Handan, taught disciples, and became a local hero in Handan, because he was born in the military of Zhao State, so he maintained a good friendship with the army of Zhao State, and Li Mudu maintained a good relationship, so he was also very supportive of the plateau. Earlier, Wu Lie threw his son Wu Zhanpeng, daughter Wu Hongyan, his most proud disciple Zhongsun Qi, and more than 20 other disciples to serve under the plateau, becoming the doorman of the plateau, and becoming the earliest group of teams in the plateau.

Later, Li Mu was forced out of Handan, and Wu Lie's younger brothers and children also served in the Zhao army with the plateau, stationed in Jingcheng. After the death of Li Mu, the plateau occupied the Dai County and became independent, and Wu Lie's younger brothers and daughters were all turned into the Dai Army, after several years of conquest, Wu Zhanpeng and Zhong Sun Qi were promoted to the chief generals of the first army because of their military merits, and the other disciples also held the positions of middle and lower officers in the Dai Army, and the youngest was also Bai Chang. And Wu Hongyan is Li Yinghong's handkerchief friend, and now she is the main cadre of the women's army, and together with Han Xiuwan, she has become one of Li Yinghong's right-hand men. Therefore, it can be said that Wu Lie's younger brothers have become a backbone of the army.

After the fall of the Zhao State, Wu Lie still stayed in Handan, closed the martial arts hall, and opened a restaurant. However, Wu Lie has always been hostile to the Qin State, coupled with the relationship between his son and his daughter and apprentice, so he has always kept in touch with Daijun in secret and supported the plateau, and Daijun set up intelligence points in Handan, arranged hidden spies, and inquired about the news of the Qin army, etc., Wu Lie also helped a lot in it, it can be said that without Wu Lie's help, Daijun would be difficult to achieve the current situation in Handan.

As early as when the Zhao State had just fallen, Wu Lie wanted to secretly contact other powerful clans in Handan, form an underground alliance, and make every effort to help Daijun, hoping that the plateau could make Daijun grow stronger, and one day lead the Dai army to defeat the Qin army, regain Handan, and restore the boundaries of the Zhao State.

However, at that time, the Qin State destroyed several countries in a row, the momentum was flourishing, and there was almost no resistance in the world, and the Daijun was located in a remote area, although the plateau was not a nameless person, but it was by no means expected, so most of the powerful clans were obviously not confident in the Daijun and the plateau, some people even asserted that the Daijun was difficult to maintain for a long time, as long as the Qin State attacked, it would be destroyed immediately, and the plateau was not the clan of the Zhao State, and when the Daijun was occupied, the clan of the Zhao State was also killed, Zhao Jia, which also made some of the clans of the Zhao State extremely dissatisfied with the plateau, Therefore, there are not many people who are really in favor of forming an alliance to help Daishire.

Some of the powerful clans of Zhao State resigned themselves to fate and were content with the status quo, some pinned their hopes on the help of Qi Chuwei and other countries, and some planned to go it alone, and only Wu Lie supported Daijun with all his might.

However, with the passage of time, under the belt of the plateau, Daijun not only survived in the cracks of the big countries, but also gradually developed and expanded, and was also recognized by Qichu, Weiyan and other countries, showing great vitality for development. Moreover, in the later battle of Qin and Wei, Gao Yuan led the army to help Wei resist the attack of Qin, and defended Daliang for nearly two years, causing a large number of casualties to the Qin army. Therefore, although the Great Liang was eventually lost and the Wei State was destroyed, the prestige of the plateau was pushed to a new height, and many people in the world regarded it as another Guan Jian figure who could resist the Qin army after Xin Lingjun and Li Mu.

And Wu Lie also took the opportunity to contact the Haoqiang clan in Handan again, and once again proposed to form an alliance to help Daijun and support the plateau. However, at this time, although the prestige of the plateau increased greatly, the fact that the Great Liang was lost and the Wei State was destroyed still made it difficult for some people to fully believe in the ability of the plateau, thinking that the plateau was not worthy of the name, and it was difficult to accept and support a person with a foreign surname, so although many people responded to Wu Lie's call, in fact, most people still held a wait-and-see attitude and had no substantive action.

This time, the Qin State sent troops from two directions to attack Daiyan respectively, and it was also the first time that the Qin army was faced head-on after the establishment of Daijun. And the powerful clan of Handan is also very concerned about this battle, of course, there are quite a lot of people who looked at the decline of the Daijun before the war, they think that the development of the Daijun in the past is because the Qin State did not notice the Daijun at all, and now under the strong soldiers of the Qin army, the good days of the Daijun are coming to an end. And the plateau will also be exposed in the battle with the Qin army, and it will not be able to bear the heavy responsibility of resisting the Qin army and the Qin state.

But at this time, the result was indeed unexpected, including Wu Lie, who had always supported Daijun, did not expect that the Dai army commanded by the plateau would be able to achieve such a heavy and glorious result. Not only did they comprehensively defeat the Qin army and occupy almost the entire territory of Yan State, but also recovered a large number of Zhao areas, and now the troops are directly aimed at Handan, and there is a great momentum to conquer Handan in one fell swoop and fully control the Zhao realm. Even Xin Lingjun and Li Mu back then may not be able to do this.

Because Xin Lingjun was in command of the Five Nations Alliance back then, and the troops and various resources he possessed were actually above the Qin army, so it was not difficult to defeat the Qin army; Although Li Mu defeated the Qin army twice, the result was only to preserve the Zhao State, and he did not seize much land in the Qin State, and the plateau only led the army of Daijun to compete with the Qin army, not only defeated the Qin army, but also took the entire Yan Realm back from the hands of the Qin army, and also occupied the land of Julu and Dongyang counties of Zhao State, which is of course much more difficult than Xinlingjun and Li Mu.

At this time, there was no need for Wu Lie to recruit, most of the powerful clans in Handan took the initiative to come to the door and asked Wu Lie to come forward and form an alliance to fully support the plateau and help the Dai army capture Handan, including a considerable part of the Zhao clan.

After all, the current situation is very clear, the power of the plateau has been established, the Dai army is in the limelight, and it is very likely to occupy Handan, and although the plateau is not the clan of the Zhao State, it is also the old minister of the Zhao State and the heir of Li Mu, emotionally speaking, of course, it is much closer than the Qin army. Therefore, now is the time to quickly take sides and choose a camp, if you express your attitude at this time, support the plateau, and wait until the plateau leads the army to capture Handan, you can become a meritorious man and find a place for yourself in the regime established by the plateau in the future.

Although Wu Lie was very dissatisfied with the attitude of the powerful clans, because he had only decided to support the plateau now, what had he done before, it was obvious that he saw that the plateau was about to hit Handan, so he hurriedly expressed his attitude, determined his position, and snatched the fruits of victory. However, after all, Wu Lie also hoped that Gao Yuan could take advantage of the situation to conquer Handan and drive away the Qin army this time, so he still agreed to the request of the powerful clans, and it happened that in this era, the county Jinyiwei sent people to Handan to understand the current garrison situation in Handan City, and the Jinyiwei who was lurking in Handan decided to send two people to Jingcheng to meet the plateau and talk to the plateau in person. So Wu Lie also built yƬ Zhonghao Qiang clan sent his own representatives to Jingcheng and Gao Yuan for an interview.

After discussion, the Haoqiang clan also agreed with Wu Lie's opinion, so three candidates were proposed, one was called Zhao Ming, who was the clan of Zhao State, and the other two were named Pang Wei and Xu Jing, both of whom were Haoqiang's sons of Zhao State, and Wu Lie also sent his confidant family Wu Xuan, plus two members of Jinyiwei lurking in Handan, of course, they acted as Wu Lie's family members in the name discussion, and formed a delegation to Jingcheng.

Although under the rule of the Qin State, the power of the Zhao Guohao clan is not as good as before, but the foundation is deep and intertwined, and if you want to send a few people out of the city, you can still do it, plus now the Dai army is not approaching Handan, so Handan has not closed the city, after all, it is impossible to completely cut off contact with the outside world in a megacity like Handan.

As a result, a group of six people sneaked out of Handan and rushed to Jingcheng, because they were accompanied by the personnel of Jinyiwei, so after entering the area controlled by the army, they were not questioned, and there was a special person to escort them to Jingcheng.

Gao Yuan delayed the decision to march for a long time, and did not recruit the generals to discuss, because he did not understand the situation in Handan now, so even if he discussed, he could not achieve any results from the discussion, so he could only wait patiently.

After learning that the members of Jinyiwei had finally come to Jingcheng, Gao Yuan was naturally very happy, but when he learned that there were also representatives sent by Zhao Guohao's strong clan, Gao Yuan's heart couldn't help but sneer, because he was more clear about the purpose of Zhao Guohao's strong clan than Wu Lie.

In fact, the reason why the Haoqiang clan of Zhao strongly opposed the rule of Qin was not out of any national feelings, because Qin and Zhao included other countries, in terms of national identity, they were basically the same, everyone was considered a Chinese clan, and the concept of loyalty was a little bit, but it did not occupy many components, the most important and most important thing was under the rule of Qin, these Haoqiang clans lost their previous superior social status and political power in Zhao, it can be said that if under the rule of Qin, Maintaining their social status and political power, it is estimated that the vast majority of people will raise their hands in recognition of Qin's rule. Of course, this was not only the case with the powerful clans of the Zhao State, but also with other countries that were destroyed by the Qin State.

However, since the Haoqiang clan sent people, of course, they must also take care of it, but now the primary goal of the plateau is to understand the situation in Handan, so he immediately ordered to immediately recruit the two members of Jinyiwei, and let Wu Zhanpeng and Zhongsun Qi take responsibility for receiving Wu Xuan, Zhao Ming, Pang Wei, Xu Jing and others.
