The next morning, seven important officials of Zhao State gathered in the main hall of Longtai, Handan.

Zhao Dan sat on the top throne, looked around the Zhao ministers present, and slowly spoke: "Your families, I summon you here today to discuss the issue of sending troops. I have inspected the Southern Army and the Northern Army camps in the past two days, and felt that the soldiers of the Central Army had already accumulated their energy and it was time to expand the territory and take Zhao to a higher level! I wonder what the Qing families think?"

Since he had already passed the air in advance, none of the important officials of Zhao State present showed a surprised expression on their faces.

On the contrary, they have been looking forward to it for a long time.

So as soon as Zhao Dan finished speaking, Zhao Sheng, the prime minister of Zhao State, immediately spoke: "The king's words are indeed reasonable. Since the Battle of Hedong County, our Zhao State's elite soldiers have been silent for a year. It is time for the troops to go out of Handan and let the world know the power of Zhao State!"

All the important officials of Zhao State spoke one after another and expressed their approval of the decision to send troops.

After all, the Zhao State is at its peak today. If you don’t take advantage of this time to expand your territory, when will you have to wait?

Among them, the two military giants Lian Po and Pang Ran are the most determined. Seeing their impatient appearance, they are so eager to go out immediately tomorrow.

Zhao Dan looked at the battle-oriented officials of the Zhao State in front of him, and was very pleased. He smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then with the opinions of all the Qing families, where should I use troops next?"

Zhao State is located in the Central Plains and can be said to be a typical four-war place. This brings a question that there are too many goals to fight. Which one should I fight first?

The reason why Zhao Dan held a meeting today was to solve this problem.

Lian Po said without any hesitation: "King, from the perspective of his ministers, Qin is no longer a problem. At present, the direction of the attack should be placed on Qi, so as not to take the opportunity to strengthen and endanger Zhao."

Zhao Dan glanced at Lian Po with some amusement. This general Lian Po, who claimed to eat, sleep and attack Qi, had a strong desire to attack Qi.

But to be honest, attacking Qi State is not an overly bad choice.

After all, Qi State is a very rich country. In terms of wealth, it can definitely rank among the top three in the Warring States Period. If Zhao State can win the war with Qi State, it will definitely be able to win a lot of wealth.

In order to maintain such a huge military force, the financial burden of Zhao State was very heavy. Yu Xin had cried with Zhao Dan more than once.

But Lian Po's opinion was almost immediately opposed. It was not someone else's objection, but Xiangbang Zhao Sheng who had just spoken.

Zhao Sheng shook his head at Lian Po's opinion and said disapprovingly: "Zhao Sheng cannot agree with Wu Xinjun's words. Although our Zhao State defeated Qin twice in the battle between Changping and Hedong, Qin State still owns Guanzhong, Hexi, Shangjun, Bashu and half of Nanyang County. It ranks among the top seven heroes in the Warring States Period in terms of land area and population. It only takes one battle to rise again. How can such a strong enemy be ignored?"

When Zhao Sheng said this, he waved his hand very firmly and said, "In my opinion, we should continue to attack Qin until we seize Guanzhong of Qin. Once Guanzhong falls into the hands of our Zhao State, then Qin State will be really not a problem. Our Zhao State can advance and attack and retreat and defend, and its momentum is stronger than Jin State back then. In this way, why worry about not owning the world for Zhao State?"

When Lian Po heard this, his eyes immediately jumped a little violently and immediately retorted: "Pingyuan Jun is such a bad word. I think that Qin is just a group of barbarians. Even if these barbarians are included in Zhao, they will definitely not obey the kingdom and do not listen to discipline. What's the use of coming? It's better to advance the fertile land of Qi in the east and make Zhao truly rich and strong soldiers. This is the right way to conquer the world!"

Lian Po and Zhao Sheng had their own opinions and could not argue for a while.

In fact, it is not only these two ministers who have their own ideas, but even the other ministers have different opinions.

Li Bo said, "King, Wei State has always been extremely dissatisfied with being under Zhao State in the alliance of the Three Jins. Moreover, in the previous battle of Hedong County, Wei Wuji also obeyed the king's orders. Now there is information that Wei State and Qin State secretly colluded, and Wei State should be the target of attack."

Pang Nuan thought for a while and said, "King, South Korea is now the weakest country among the seven countries, so it is better to attack South Korea."

These ministers have their own ideas and each of them wants to attack, making the Longtai Hall noisy, and Zhao Dan is also unbearable.

After a while, seeing that these ministers were really quarreling, Zhao Dan finally couldn't bear it anymore, knocked on the table in front of him, and shouted: "You are all ministers of Zhao State. How can you be so noisy?"

Only then did the hall calm down.

Zhao Dan thought for a while and said, "According to the information of Hu Yiwei, Qin has sent secret envoys to the outside world very frequently. It is obvious that he wants to contact the countries and attack Zhao in the five countries! Humph, at this time, if I take random weapons against other countries, I might really arouse my anger and repeat the mistakes of King Min of Qi back then!"

When Qi State became dominant after the decline of Wei State, it became popular and attacked many countries around it. Finally, it directly annexed Song State to become the strongest in the world. Only then did Qin State find an opportunity to contact the other five countries to attack them. Zhao Dan remembered this in his heart.

As the saying goes, wood beauty and forest wind must be blown. What Zhao State has to face now is the evil wind from the western frontier of Guanzhong!

When several other ministers of Zhao State nodded repeatedly when they heard Zhao Dan's words, they praised Zhao Dan for his long-term vision, but immediately fell into confusion.

Si Kou Zhao Bao spoke to Zhao Dan and said, "If it is not suitable for attacking other countries now, how can we expand our territory?"

When other ministers heard this, they couldn't help but turn their attention to Zhao Dan. While saying that they wanted to expand their territory, they also said that they could not attack other countries and grant the population a solid amount. What should we do?
