Chapter 839 Han Wangran's gaffe
Xinzheng City.
King Han Ran was above the throne and his face was calm.
In front of Han Wangran, Korean Xiangbang Jin Mou was meticulously reporting on the situation.
"King, the entire Luoyi is now under our control. The total number of people in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has been dealt with in total. The officials sent by the King have taken over the entire Luoyi."
Even if a big city like Luoyi is attacked, it will take a lot of effort to fully take over and restore normal order. Moreover, it is one thing to restore basic order, and it is another thing to fully control the entire city.
With South Korea's current strength and preparations in advance, it took three days to restore the basic order of Luoyi City. Then it took almost half a month to basically sort out the clues, which was truly controlling the entire city.
Jin Mou continued to speak again: "According to statistics, the treasury of the Western Zhou lord in Luoyi contains food..."
Han Wangran interrupted Jin Mou's words: "How many soldiers can be used to fight, and how many civilians can do it?"
If Jin Mou came to report to Han Wangran in normal times, Han Wangran would have carefully listened to all the reports of Jin Mou, and might even ask a few more questions to confirm that Jin Mou and the Korean officials did not have any tricks of being greedy in the process.
But for the current Han Wangran, all wealth and materials are all over the world. He is more concerned about how many people he and South Korea can increase to resist Zhao's upcoming attack after taking over Luoyi.
To be honest, although Zhao had mobilized troops at this time, it seemed like a fog that would be attacked. After all, Zhao's army and materials are now concentrated in Handan, and it is difficult to determine the direction of the march before setting off.
However, King Han has made a judgment through various clues and some of the South Korean sentiments in Zhao State that the target of the Zhao people's attack this time is likely to be his own South Korea!
At this time, Han Wangran had already understood a truth, that is, the current situation is already different from a few years ago. No country should think of having any luck when facing Zhao, because after Zhao won, it will no longer engage in a negotiation game of cede land and compensation, but will directly annex the defeated country!
Faced with this pressure of life and death, no monarch will pay attention to anything like wealth and treasures. Let’s survive first.
Jin Mou was obviously not surprised that King Han would ask such a question, so he immediately replied: "Best Lord, there are now 3,400 soldiers in the entire Luoyi, but from the perspective of the ministers, Luoyi has always had a large population, so it is no problem to recruit 80,000 young and strong soldiers to join the army."
"Three thousand soldiers, eighty thousand young and strong?" After hearing the news, Han Wangran didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow.
Of course, the happy thing is that Luoyi has a large population. After all, it is a place that has not fought for many years, so the troops collected are more than Han Wangran had imagined before.
As for what Jin Mou said at the beginning, King Han never believed it. After all, no matter how big a city is, it would not produce so many young and strong people. This was a chaotic Warring States period that had fought for hundreds of years.
With this 80,000 population and the population mobilized by South Korea during this period, the entire South Korea can have almost 200,000 troops, which is the so-called army that is swaying to the country.
It seems a little bit less, but there is nothing we can do about it. After all, South Korea is located in the Central Plains and participated in the war a lot. In addition, the number of young and strong people is too high to have a lot of ghosts.
King Han let out a long sigh and suddenly said, "With these troops, can you block the attack of the Zhao people?"
Jin Mou hesitated for a moment, then said, "King, if Pang Nuan or Ju Xin leads his army to attack, I think there is no problem. But if Lian Po or Li Mu leads his army to attack, the 200,000 will be far from enough."
King Han was slightly stunned and then said, "Liang Po is a famous general of the world. Is Li Mu qualified to be on par with Lian Po now?"
Jin Mou thought about it and said very seriously: "King, from the perspective of the minister, Li Mu's danger may be more than Lian Po!"
In fact, this is also the view of all the generals of all countries on the entire continent except Zhao.
Although Lian Po is very fierce, and has gradually changed his previous fierce attacks and rushing over the years, the problem is that Lian Po is already in his fifties and about 60 years old. Basically, he is the age of being at the age of possible death at any time. Therefore, although Lian Po is fierce, it is not worth being too afraid of.
Li Mu is just the opposite. Li Mu is almost the same as Lian Po in terms of his achievements. What's even more terrifying is that Li Mu is still in his thirties and is more than 20 years younger than Lian Po!
In other words, even if Lian Po died soon, Zhao State can still steadily suppress the countries for at least twenty years with the guy Li Mu!
Whenever he thinks of this, Jin Mou always feels a faint sense of despair.
At this moment, a Korean messenger suddenly walked into the hall quickly.
"King, Handan urgently reported!"
King Han looked at the urgent report and his face gradually became ugly. After a while, he snorted and threw the urgent report in front of Jin Xi: "Jin Qing, please take a look at it yourself."
Jin Mou picked up this urgent report and found that it was a manifesto, which listed Han Wangran's various shortcomings. Then he said that because Han Wangran offended the Emperor of Zhou, King Zhao raised an army to attack Han for the plan of the people of the world.
Although there have been some speculations for a long time, when this speculation was really confirmed, Han Wangran still felt an incomparable fear from the bottom of his heart.
Yes, the Zhao army, which has always worried King Han, is finally coming this time.
This unit that made the entire continent tremble, the goal this time is to destroy South Korea!
As he thought about it, Han Wangran's body even began to tremble involuntarily.
When a person reaches the extreme of fear, anger arises.
"This Zhao Dan is really too much. He thought he was, and he dared to point fingers at me so much!"
King Han was really angry. You said that if you want to destroy the country, you will destroy the country. Why did you throw dirty water on me before destroying the country?
No... It doesn't seem to be a splash of dirty water, but everyone is a king. Who doesn't know the hidden rules under your hands? What does Zhao Dan mean to show it to the world?
On the contrary, Jin Mougong seemed to understand something and said to King Han calmly: "Master, I think the reason why King Zhao did this is likely to win the hearts of the people!"
"People's heart?" Han Wangran was stunned again. After a moment, he suddenly slapped his thigh and suddenly realized: "I understand!"
Jin Mou's words are not wrong at all. Zhao Dan is indeed trying to win the hearts of the people.
The reason is actually very simple. If a monarch has always been diligent in his work and loves the people, then when the country is invaded, there will definitely be many people willing to fight to protect the country and protect their kings.
But if a king only knows how to collect intensive taxes when his country is invaded, then the people will definitely abandon him when his country is invaded. Not to mention resisting, it would be good not to lead the way for the enemy.
The reason why Zhao Dan’s manifesto made such a grand announcement to the world was to destroy Han Wangran’s reputation and make everyone in the world think that Han Wangran is a bastard.
At that time, King Han became a despicable villain, while Zhao Dan, who should have been an invader, transformed into a hero who eliminated the villain.
"It's so calculating, Zhao Dan's son is really so calculating." Han Wangran gritted his teeth and wanted to eat Zhao Dan raw: "If I expected it would be right, Zhao Dan's son's Hu Yiwei must have spread rumors that are not good for me all over Korea. Jin Qingru must arrange personnel as soon as possible and not let Zhao Dan's son's conspiracy succeed!"
Han Wangran was also forced to do something, and he whispered Zhao Dan's son, completely losing the demeanor that the king should have.
Jin Mou hurriedly said, "Hey, I will arrange someone to do this immediately. But please rest assured. The king's efforts for South Korea over the years are obvious to all. The people of South Korea see this and will never be deceived by the people of Zhao!"
King Han said silence.
As a monarch who is skilled in power, Han Wangran has long known that public opinion has always been the easiest to guide and change.
If it is really uncontrollable, once the trend of three people becoming tigers spreads, then the entire South Korea will really become a voice that is unfavorable to the King of Korea.
"Damn Zhao Dan's son!" Han Wangran thought hatred: "If you have any conspiracies, just use them all!" 8)
