Chapter 240 The nemesis of smart people

"Just now, there was almost a fight at the city gate. The situation in Yanmen City is getting worse and worse." Zi Nu took a roll of bamboo slips and said to Wei Zhuang.

"It's a pity that to achieve the result he wants, he still needs a lot of firepower. The current situation is not enough." Wei Zhuang said.

"The time he has left for us is running out. We have to take the initiative. This last fire can't be lit by the stupid county guard himself. It can only be done by us." Zi Nu said.

"What are you going to do?" Wei Zhuang asked.

"First of all, we have to protect the Yanmen deputy general who is now in prison, Wei Zhuang," Zi Nu said.

"Are you going to use this person's name to launch a rebellion by Zhao Jun's side cavalry?" Wei Zhuang asked.

"That is not an upset, but an attempt to bring order to things and bring real happiness to the people of Yanmen County," Zinu said.

"The Zhao army's side cavalry currently controlled by Luo Wen are only more than a hundred people. If they launch a rebellion, the possibility of success is very small." Wei Zhuang said.

"No, the possibility of success is not very small, but non-existent." Zi Nu corrected her.

"Then you still?" Wei Zhuang asked doubtfully, but when he said it in general, he seemed to understand and did not say any more.

"Using the blood of more than a hundred people to intensify the anger that has been accumulated in Yanmen City can also make that stupid county guard make the worst choice in fear." Zi Nu said.

"You women are really cruel," Wei Zhuang said.

"No, no, no, I can't compare to you men." Zi Nu said with a smile.

"Those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black. You haven't even gotten close yet and your color has already changed." Wei Zhuang joked in a rare way.

"What do you mean? What other colors can I have? What color was it before? What color is it now?" Zi Nu asked.

"The purple girl used to be purple, but now she has turned black." Wei Zhuang said.

"Black, a kind of resentful, mysterious and solemn color." Zi Nu said with a smile, seeming to be very satisfied with Wei Zhuang's description.

"Women, sometimes they are so unreasonable." Wei Zhuang shook his head and laughed.

"Do you understand women?" Zi Nu asked.

"Boring." Wei Zhuang's expression changed slightly.

"ignorance."

Zhaodu, royal palace.

"The Wolf Clan was defeated? An army of 200,000 was defeated openly by a Qin army of 100,000 outside Yanmen City?" Zhao Wangyan looked at the military report coming back from the front in disbelief, and was confused for a moment.

How is that possible? That was an army of 200,000 wolves, and it was defeated so quickly?

Zhao Wangyan never thought that the wolf tribe's army could defeat the Qin army, but it shouldn't be so fast. In his expectation, the Qin army could defeat the wolf tribe's 200,000 army, but that was

Victory requires a heavy price, but in the current situation, the Qin army does not seem to have paid the so-called heavy price.

With the Qin army so powerful in defeating the wolf clan, if it swept down from Yanmen County, would Zhao be able to withstand it?

For a moment, Zhao Wangyan felt a huge shadow coming towards him.

Is this why the world's ill will toward him is so great? For a moment, Zhao Wangyan felt doubtful about his life.

"Your Majesty, the defeat of the Wolf Clan has become a fact. The most important thing for us now is to find a way to face the Qin Army's next offensive." Guo Kai, who was summoned by Zhao Wangyan, said.

"The 200,000 wolf tribe's army has been defeated, what else can we do?" Zhao Wangyan said.

"Your Majesty, at this time, we must not give the Qin army in Yanmen County a chance to go south," Guo Kai said.

"What do you mean by this?" Zhao Wangyan asked in a solemn voice.

"Your Majesty, at this time, the army under Li Mu can no longer stay in the fertile land. They need to return to support Yanmen County. If the Qin Army does not capture Yanmen County, the main force of the Qin Army will be contained in Yanmen County. This way Only then can we have time to do more things." Guo Kaidao.

"As long as Li Mu can contain the Qin Army in Yanmen County, we will have the capital to negotiate with the Qin Army. However, once the Qin Army captures Yanmen County and then moves south, at that time, we will want to negotiate with the Qin Army. Maybe we can only use the capital to negotiate with them," Guo Kaidao said.

"You mean to use war to promote peace?" Zhao Wangyan asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this is all we can do now. As long as Li Mu can contain the Qin army and win a few battles, he can sue for peace with Qin at the minimum cost," Guo Kaidao said.

"Is this really feasible?" Zhao Wangyan hesitated.

Now he can't believe his own judgment, let alone his courage.

His previous planning had turned into such an embarrassing situation, causing Zhao Wangyan to have extreme doubts about his ability.

"There is no better choice at the moment." Guo Kai persuaded.

"No, the Wolf Clan's 200,000-strong army has been defeated. If Li Mu is defeated again, then our State of Zhao will have lost its last major force. How can we resist the State of Qin?" Zhao Wangyan, who had already lost his tone, said I don't know what came to mind, but I suddenly rejected Guo Kai's proposal.

Guo Kai stopped talking this time. Of course, he didn't know what to say.

"We need to bring back Li Mu and his side cavalry." Zhao Wangyan said to himself.

"Yes, we must bring them back." Zhao Wangyan said with more certainty in his tone.

It’s not that I don’t consider Zhao Guo, Zhao Yan decided all this by himself. Guo Kai said to himself in his heart.

It is an easy matter to mobilize Li Mu back to the capital of Zhao, but it is very troublesome and even dangerous to mobilize the Zhao army to ride back to the capital of Zhao.

The families of those soldiers are all in Yanmen County. It is not difficult for the soldiers to temporarily leave their families to fight for the country, but if they abandon their families, it will be a big trouble.

"Everything should be decided by the king." Guo Kai cooperated with King Zhao Yan and said.

······

"Your Majesty has won, and our real trouble is about to come." Huanjue summoned the generals in the Qin army's camp in Feidi and said.

Under the gaze of each general, Huan Yan continued: "Since the wolf army has been defeated, what Li Mu can do is to defeat us as much as possible before the king's army in Yanmen County, and then return to Yanmen to aid. In this way Give us a chance to fight against you."

"So, the confrontation between us and the Zhao army will no longer exist, 50,000 vs. 70,000, especially since Li Mu's men are all Zhao army's side cavalry, the advantage is not in ours." Huan Jue said.

"Our army only needs to defend and wait for the king to lead the army south. Although we do not have an advantage in terms of strength, the situation is favorable to us." A general said.

"It's good to have confidence, but you have to be careful about everything." Huan Jue affirmed.

Huan Yan's analysis of Li Mu was good, but he forgot that there was a King Zhao behind Li Mu, and everything would go as he expected.
