Wearing light gray linen clothes, with gray-black hair tied into braids, her complexion slightly dark, and her brows rather resolute, after hearing what Prince Dan said, she spoke deeply once again.
At this time, it is already quite difficult to continue to discuss reversing the situation in Qilu, and among the five kingdoms of Xia, Shandong, Chu has too much time to take care of itself, and Qi will not help.
Then only Wei and Yan are left. With the current national strength of Zhao, without the help of Qi, unless Yan and Wei join forces to help, it is possible to survive the war between Qin and Qin.
The State of Zhao has always been a barrier for the Shandong states, and nothing will happen to them no matter what.
"Sending troops to aid Zhao?"
"This... is Tian Guangjie Xia joking with Dan?"
"It is already difficult for my father to stop attacking Zhao at this moment. If we send troops to rescue Zhao, it is probably impossible. Moreover, Zhao is quite powerful now. Although the troops were damaged last time, there are still three or four soldiers in the country.
An army of 100,000 troops far surpasses that of Yan State."
Prince Dan was dumbfounded. He didn't have any good impressions of the Zhao Kingdom. Two hundred years ago, the three families were divided into Jin Dynasties, which caused the Warring States Period to be chaotic. Kingly benevolence and courtesy no longer existed, and he did not care about the face of the Yan Kingdom.
The State of Yan inherited the legacy of Duke Zhao and had the responsibility to maintain the benevolence and etiquette that had existed since the Great Zhou Dynasty. It did not have a good impression of the neighboring State of Zhao at all. In normal times, it was only beneficial to combine vertical and horizontal lines.
If he wanted to help Zhao Guo, Yan Dan thought he couldn't do it.
Moreover, it is not that the State of Zhao has no power to compete with the State of Qin. The State of Zhao is now a little weaker than in previous years, but in terms of overall national strength, it still exceeds that of the State of Yan.
"Although there are still 300,000 to 400,000 troops in the Zhao Kingdom today, the most important ones are Li Mu's 100,000 frontier troops in the Yanmen area. The 200,000 troops in the hinterland were already lost in the last battle against Qin.
Quite elite.”
"More than half of the Handan Camp was destroyed. Your Highness, the one who led the troops to attack Zhao this time was Qin General Wang Jian. For several years, he has been training troops at Lantian Camp, which blessed the Qin State's treasury, sufficient soldiers, and tough weapons.
"
"More than 400,000 troops are pressing down on the border, far more than the Battle of Changping decades ago. At this time, Qin is stronger and Zhao is weaker. But last time, Qin had a chance to destroy Zhao. This time... Your Highness
Do you think Zhao State can survive?"
There was a hint of bitterness on Tian Guang's face. Regarding the grievances between the Yan State and the Zhao State, there was also analysis among the farmers. It was nothing more than that the country of the Three Jin Dynasties won the country improperly. In terms of the 800-year-old direct bloodline of the Great Zhou Dynasty of the Yan State,
It's a shame.
In addition, the Zhao State occupies important areas in the Central Plains, has a better bloodline than the Yan State, and its power in Zhuxia far exceeds that of the Yan State. All these factors have created a gap between the Yan State and the Zhao State.
Could it be that Your Highness is still remembering those things?
Now Zhuxia has reached its most critical moment.
Although Qin is only attacking Zhao now, in fact, as long as Qin can capture Zhao, the entire Xia will truly fall into the hands of Qin.
If the State of Zhao does not exist, the Three Jins will not survive. If the State of Qin occupies the Three Jins, its national power will increase by more than ten times. The State of Qin is already extremely powerful. If it were more than ten times stronger, it would be even more terrifying.
Wei is unstoppable!
The country of Yan is unstoppable!
The Chu State, which has too much time to take care of itself, is also hard to resist!
In other words, the affairs of Zhao State are now not only the affairs of Zhao State, but also the affairs of the entire Xia State. If you watch Zhao State being attacked by Qin State now, you will fall on yourself next.
What a shame!
"What do Han Qing think?"
Prince Dan frowned, of course he knew the general trend of Zhu Xia, but... assisting Zhao Guo was not what he wanted, but what Tian Guangjiexia said was reasonable. After taking a breath, his eyes fell on Han Shen.
"Your Highness, Yan State is not strong enough now!"
"Sure enough, the State of Zhao could not resist the pressure of the State of Qin. The State of Zhao was destroyed, and the State of Yan was the first to bear the brunt. In the past, His Highness and the King of Qin had a grudge. I am afraid that it would be difficult for the State of Yan to contend if Wang Jian's army pressed down on the border."
"If we can support Zhao and Qin, we don't need to use a huge force. We just need to make Qin and Zhao fall into a war situation. It's the best strategy!"
Facing Prince Dan's gaze, Han Shen raised his eyebrows slightly. He could guess a thing or two about His Highness's thoughts, but what Tian Guangjiexia said was quite important.
The State of Zhao really ceased to exist, and the State of Yan really had to face the pressure of the State of Qin!
With the current situation of Yan State, it is impossible to compete with Qin State. Therefore, there is no harm in helping Zhao State. Of course, a small amount of help will be enough.
"Your Highness, why don't we wait and see the situation first? Just like South Korea before, Zhao Guo has the strength to support it. It doesn't matter if Yan Guo can help one or two. If it is defeated in one blow, I am afraid that our help will make us even more angry.
Qin State."
"What do you think?"
Doctor Ju Wu also offered advice, saying that he would treat Zhao the same way he treated South Korea before. Unfortunately, South Korea was too weak and could not even resist Qin's first wave of attacks, and the country would be destroyed.
And if Zhao Guo shows enough confrontational capital, it won't hurt to help.
"This... is okay."
Tian Guang nodded, this was a roundabout strategy.
"When a doctor becomes old, he will seek for the country."
Han Shen was also impressed.
"According to my father's wishes, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save Zhao. At this time, the situation in Zhao is really worrying. Dan is in the city of Wuyang, and there are 50,000 troops who can help."
"By the way, Mr. Gao, how is the Mohist giant doing to the west of the Longxi River now?"
Although Yan Dan hated the Qin State in his heart, he also understood the importance of the Zhao State to the Yan State. Of course, when the time came to help the Zhao State, he would naturally have to put forward sufficient conditions. He would also benefit from sending troops to rescue the Zhao State from time to time.
After this matter came to an end, his eyes flickered and fell on the cold man in white clothes on one side, smiling and looking away.
"Juzi is leading the Mohist disciples to travel around Wusun, Yueshi and other countries, and has already contacted officials from the two countries. If you want to go further, it will take a lot of time. After all, the languages and customs are slightly different."
"But the Xiongnu are in contact. As expected, when Qin attacks Zhao, the Xiongnu will also send troops south. At that time, Qin's military strength will be involved, so Qin will not be able to attack Zhao with all its strength."
Last year, when I was far away in Jingyuan City, the northern county of Qin State, I was strangled by the Qin army. Almost all the Mohists were wiped out. Fortunately, there were disciples from farmers in Longxi at that time who rescued me. Otherwise, I would not have been able to escape.
Hearing Prince Dan's words, Gao Jianli nodded gently, with a hint of coldness on his face, and responded slowly.
"Dan naturally believes in the power of the giant."
"Now, Dan is a little worried. Those people are barbarians after all. What if the Huns do not attack Qin but also attack Zhao?"
It's not impossible. Those barbarians don't care about benevolence and etiquette. Therefore, although Yan Dan admires the behavior of the Mohist giant in joining forces with them, the matter is out of control after all.
With the power of the Xiongnu, it is not difficult to know how powerful Zhao is, but bullying the weak and fearing the strong has always been the style of the Hu people.
"Haha, Your Highness, there is no need to worry."
"In the north of Zhao State, as long as Li Mu has 100,000 border troops, those Huns will not even think about going south. Compared with Li Mu's 100,000 border troops, Qin State Mengtian's newly built Jiuyuan Camp has just been completed. Although it has a lot of troops, after all,
The fighting power is not shown."
"As long as the Huns are not stupid, they will not attack Zhao. Moreover, if they attack Zhao at this time, Qin will benefit. When Qin becomes stronger, it is not what the Huns want to see."
"Today's Xiongnu Chan Yu Touman is a heroic lord!"
Tian Guang smiled brightly, settling the doubts in Prince Dan's mind.
The peasant disciples are all over the Xia Dynasty. They have long noticed the existence of the Xiongnu Touman Chanyu, and many of them have disappeared. Otherwise, he would not have been able to unify all the Xiongnu tribes in one place in just ten years.
There are hundreds of thousands of people.
"That's it, that's good."
Yan Dan was overjoyed and looked at each other with a smile.
"Your Highness, there is a man outside the mansion who calls himself Taoist Zong Xiaoyaozi and wants to see him!"
After everything was done, in the main hall, everyone was drinking happily, and there were even more impressive dancers accompanying them. Not long after, a person quietly walked in from outside the hall, dressed as an attendant, and came forward to bow.
"Taoist Zong Xiaoyaozi?"
"Well, is it the Taoist sect that Huang A was born from?"
"Please come quickly!"
Yan Dan looked startled. He knew a lot about people from hundreds of families, and Xiaoyaozi naturally heard about it.
It's just... I didn't expect that Renzong's Xiaoyaozi would come to Yan Kingdom and appear in front of his mansion. His face was filled with joy. He glanced left and right. Tian Guang, Han Shen and others also looked at each other.
"Taoist sect Xiaoyaozi, since Qin conquered Korea last year, Xiaoyaozi has led some disciples of the human sect to other countries in Shandong and is no longer in his homeland of Korea."
"Renzong Muxuzi also led some disciples to the Qin Kingdom. As far as I know, it was due to the different paths of joining the world. Your Highness, Renzong Xiaoyaozi is a famous person in hundreds of schools of thought."
