Chapter five hundred and eightieth father and son talk
"Your Majesty, they are worried that Zhao still has some strength left." The prime minister stood up and explained.
"Absurd!" Wan Yanbai swung his sleeves fiercely, "Zhao has experienced so many natural and man-made disasters. How can it be possible for Zhao to have enough energy to deal with the encirclement of several countries?"
"Your Majesty, we originally thought that Zhao State was unable to send troops." The Prime Minister bit the bullet and reminded him.
Instantly, Wan Yanbai's expression became particularly wonderful.
Every time they thought that Zhao Guo could not hold on, Zhao Guo, or Zhao Jin, would always surprise them and turn an army against them.
So, this time, no matter how long those countries had coveted Zhao, they did not dare to act rashly, for fear that Zhao would not win, but would lose themselves.
Another road was blocked, and the monarchs and ministers of the Long Kingdom were almost helpless.
Chen Xiao didn't care how exhausted they were now, their offensive was getting fiercer and faster.
As soon as Zhao's soldiers rested and reorganized the captured city, the army's swords would immediately point to the next city.
In order to frighten the surrounding countries, Zhao Jin simply asked the nearby states and counties to assist Chen Xiao.
Whenever Chen Xiao captured a city, officials would immediately come to help hand over and organize the city, so that Chen Xiao did not have to spend too much thought on the city he had already captured.
As a result, Chen Xiao fought more quickly, causing the soldiers of Lilong Kingdom to complain endlessly.
As time went by, the morale of Zhao State became more and more prosperous, while the morale of Lilong State became more and more sluggish. The soldiers of Lilong State clearly realized that they were fighting a war that was bound to lose.
Gradually, although Chen Xiao's style of play was still fast and furious, he became much more cautious and not as aggressive as at the beginning.
"Wait for now. We will call all the generals together later to discuss whether this method is feasible." Chen Xiao rejected Huang Chunhui's proposal to implement it directly.
Chen Xiao leaned back on his seat, frowning and thinking, "This method is good, but the risk is not small."
The morale of Zhao's soldiers is now too high, which is a good thing, but it is not necessarily a good thing.
This morale is due to the fact that they have never suffered a defeat in the past few days of fighting against Lilong. Once they lose this battle, it will be a heavy blow to Zhao's morale.
Therefore, Chen Xiao changed his aggressive and fast-moving style of play and instead pursued stability.
Letter after letter of good news came to Bianzhou from the border, and then, under Zhao Jin's instructions, spread throughout the entire Zhao Kingdom.
The prince, who was originally very active, calmed down a lot after hearing the news.
Zhao Kingdom, south, Zhongwangfu.
"Father, those southern barbarians sent a message over, saying that everything will be discussed in the long term." The person who spoke was a young man, his voice mixed with dissatisfaction.
"It's better to take a long-term approach than to take a long-term approach."
The middle king is obese, and the flesh on his waist tightens his belt. If he moves a little, you can see the flesh on his belly shaking.
"Father, delaying time may not necessarily be a good thing."
Seeing that King Zhong agreed to Nanmanzi's proposal, the young man was a little anxious and took a step forward. "The longer time passes, the better Zhao will recover. It will be more difficult for us to seize power."
"But now, we don't know if Zhao Jin still has any remaining strength, so he is hiding it from us."
The middle king, Zhao Xin, said earnestly and sincerely: "Zhong Sheng, if we don't succeed in this matter at once, we will all be dead."
"No matter what the external and internal troubles are, the chances of winning will be greater than in the future." Zhao Zhongsheng did not change his mind at all.
What if the State of Zhao, or rather Zhao Jin, had a backup plan? Zhao State had gone through many twists and turns, and he didn't believe that Zhao Jin could still have a backup plan.
Apart from anything else, Zhao Zhongsheng did not believe that Zhao Jin could fill the huge food gap needed for the war.
"No, no."
Zhao Xin hesitated for a while, but still rejected Zhao Zhongsheng's proposal, "Let's wait a little longer. It's not suitable now. Zhao Jin may not have reached the end of his rope."
"Didn't Zhao Xingyu also resort to external and internal troubles in the past? Zhao State was also in a difficult situation at that time. However, in the end, Zhao Jin was able to put down the external and internal strife one after another, and Zhao Xingyu also died tragically."
It was a matter of wealth and life, and Zhao Xin didn't want to gamble with himself.
Just wait, there is always a chance.
Zhao Zhongsheng's eyebrows skipped a beat. Wait, wait, wait, they have been waiting for so many years!
Unspeakable anger beat in Zhao Zhongsheng's heart. He didn't understand why Zhao Xin was so timid and afraid of getting into trouble.
If they keep waiting, they will never get the chance!
Zhao Zhong increased his anger and said again: "Father, once the war between Chen Xiao and Lilong is over, Zhao will only gradually recover. If we want to fight, it will only be more difficult."
Zhao Xin thought about what Zhao Zhongsheng said, and his face suddenly wrinkled.
What Zhong Sheng said seems to make sense.
But Zhao Xingyu was so similar to them back then, wasn't he also destroyed by Zhao Jin in the end?
Zhao Xingyu's ending was like a giant ax hanging on Zhao Xin's head, making him hesitant and hesitant.
No one doesn't want that position, and he is no exception. However, Zhao Xin also cherishes his life.
"Wait a minute, Zhao Guo still has that huge metal lump on his hand. I don't know what it is." He recalled the power of the metal lump mentioned in the news.
Zhao Xin's face wrinkled even more, "Hey! Otherwise, we wouldn't be sure about that thing."
"Father!"
Zhao Zhongsheng could hardly control his anger, and his voice could not help but rise a little higher, "Zhao Jin has created something like this again in a short period of time."
"If we continue to delay, who knows if there will be something more powerful?"
"Father, this matter really cannot be delayed!"
Zhao Zhongsheng could see clearly that Zhao Jin was not a mediocre person like Zhao Qian. If he was given time, he would only develop Zhao State better and better.
This is not a good thing for them.
The more prosperous and prosperous Zhao is, the less conducive it is for them to seize power.
"This..." Zhao Xin was confused, but what Zhong Sheng said made sense.
He looked confused and did not respond to Zhao Zhongsheng for a long time.
suddenly!
An idea flashed in Zhao Xin's mind, and he patted the table with a smile, "Yes!"
Zhao Zhongsheng looked at him suspiciously, "Father?"
"Hahahaha, I have thought of a way." Zhao Xin became visibly happy and no longer struggled.
He expressed his thoughts, "Zhong Sheng, our most important problem now is that we are not sure whether Zhao Jin has any trump card or whether Zhao State has the ability to put down the rebellion."
"We can send people to inquire about the food situation in various places, but the biggest problem lies with Zhao Jin."
Zhao Xin stroked his chin beard and said cheerfully: "But the most important thing is to see if Zhao Jin is sure."
