Chapter 76 In that era, there was only one genius.
After all, although the Daijun area is not small, with more than 200,000 troops, the pressure is still great.
Daijun is no better than Handan.
If it is Handan County, there will naturally be no problem at all. With the power of the capital, it will not be difficult to support an army of 200,000 for several months.
Guo Kai looked solemn. He did not want to offend Qin too much, but he would not sit back and watch the demise of Zhao State. He knew very well that everything he had came from Zhao State.
Once Zhao is destroyed, all his power will disappear.
The confrontation between the Zhao army and the Qin army has been going on all the time. Only the commanders of each other can understand the secret confrontation between each other.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. The Battle of Handan was in full swing. Naturally, the scouts from various countries and major forces learned about it and spread like wildfire.
Hei Bingtai brought Yang Duan and the letter to Xianyang. Qin Wangzheng looked at the letter in front of him and couldn't help but look slightly moved.
During the battle to destroy Zhao, he saw the name Zhao Shu again.
"Using the name of General Meng Tian to single-handedly command the Northern and Southern armies to attack Handan, this is extremely audacious."
Ying Zheng looked at the letter with a complicated expression, but he knew that his general Meng Tian was sitting in Jiuyuan, coordinating Wang Jian's attack on Li Mu.
Moreover, Zhao Shu's victory is easy to say. If he fails, this battle will be a stain on Meng Tian for the rest of his life.
After thinking this, Ying Zheng turned towards Zhao Gao and said: "Find General Wei Liao and Li Si."
"promise."
Watching Zhao Gao leave, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "Let Heibingtai pay attention to the Battle of Handan. I will report in detail."
"promise."
Watching Zhao Gao leave, Ying Zheng slowly closed his eyes. The thing had happened and he could only wait for the result to come.
Now it is impossible to mobilize Meng Tian or stop him. This feeling that the battle situation is out of control makes Ying Zheng a little uncomfortable.
But he knew in his heart that as long as he was not on the front line of the battlefield, he could not predict the direction of the war. Even if Zhao Shu was so crazy, Yang Duanhe and Xin Sheng were willing to do it and cooperated. All this explained a lot of problems.
When the general is out, military orders are not obeyed.
Although the generals of the Qin Dynasty did not have much power in the country, the generals at the border had great power and could deal with any war situation.
Now Zhao Shu, Yang Duanhe and others are on the battlefield, so naturally everything depends on the decision of Yang Duanhe and others.
A moment later, Li Si and Wei Liao rushed to Zhangtai Palace: "Your Majesty, Li Si, Wei Liao has seen the king for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty for ten thousand years——!"
Ying Zheng raised his head, looked at the two men, nodded slightly, and said: "Just now news came from the Black Ice Platform that the Battle of Handan has begun."
"Yang Duanhe, Xin Sheng, and Zhao Shu conspired to use the name of General Meng Tian to order the three armies with Zhao Shu."
"Yang Duanhe and Xin Sheng led the army to attack the north gate, while Huanjue and Li Xin led the army to attack the south gate, hoping to defeat it in one battle."
"My dear friends, how confident are you in the Battle of Handan? And how should we handle this matter?"
Facing the war, Ying Zheng did not keep too many pleasantries or hide things, but put everything on the table.
Even because Zhao Shu was Li Si's man, he did not call Wang Wan and others this time, but called Li Si.
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Li Si and Wei Liao were both shocked. They had just learned the name of Zhao Shu not long ago.
As a result, they were now frightened again. Especially Li Si, his heart was in a state of confusion. His back felt cold, and his whole body was frightened.
As a great Qin court official, Li Si was naturally familiar with Qin's laws. He knew that whether this matter could be big or small depended on the decision of King Qin.
At this moment, Li Si and Wei Liao looked at each other, then turned to Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, our army is attacking from the north and the south. As long as we cooperate properly and the leader of the Zhao army is not Lian Po, our army will win."
"The only doubt is how much loss our army can win this battle."
"Regarding this matter, I think that if the Battle of Handan is a great victory, I should give him a slight rebuke and then give him a reward."
Li Si looked at Ying Zheng with a cold tone and said: "But if it fails and fails to meet the king's expectations, it will be severely punished according to Qin law."
Wei Liao on the side shook his head and objected, saying: "Zhao Shu's plan is indeed to seize the commander. Under the guise of being a general, it has an influence on General Meng Tian."
"However, in Handan at that time, if you wanted to control the two divisions, you could only have General Meng Tian and Wang Jian, or the king himself."
"Wang Jian dueled with Li Mu at Jingxing Pass, Meng Tian guarded the Huns in Yunzhong, and the king was in Xianyang to coordinate the battle to destroy Zhao."
"Therefore, Zhao Shu and others had no choice but to make this decision. Only by unified command of the northern and southern armies can they conquer Handan in a short period of time with the least casualties."
Having said this, Wei Liao raised his hand towards Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, judging from various sources, Zhao Shu has the talent to manage the world."
"Furthermore, he is a native of Lao Qin. He should be cultivated and he will become another Lord Wu'an in the future."
At this moment, Li Si and Ying Zheng couldn't help but glance at Wei Liao. They didn't expect that Wei Liao would give Zhao Shu such a high evaluation.
After all, the name of Lord Wu'an of Great Qin is known to all the world. He was a genius who suppressed an era. He once suppressed the glory of King Qin.
In that era, there was only one genius, and that was Lord Wu'an of Great Qin.
Bai Qi.
"Ai Qing has such a high opinion of Zhao Shu?" Ying Zheng smiled and looked at Wei Liao curiously. He wanted to know the reason for Wei Liao's such evaluation.
At this time, Li Si also pricked up his ears, and he was also a little curious.
He took Zhao Shu out of Lishanling District, but Zhao Shu's performance surprised him. Once Zhao Shu entered the army, he was like a dragon entering the sea.
Seeing both Ying Zheng and Li Si showing curious expressions, Wei Liao took a sip of herbal tea and said to them, "Your Majesty, Ting Wei."
"According to reliable information, Zhao Shu is a Yao servant in Lishan Mountain. Although he has royal blood, his family background is in decline, not his family background."
"He first remade quarrying equipment in Lishan Mountain, which is a reflection of his intelligence and wisdom. Then he joined the army, first in the Battle of Wu'an, and emerged in the Dead Soldiers Camp."
"He fights bravely without fear of death, his command is just right, and he grows very fast."
"After the Battle of Wu'an, Zhao Shu had already led a thousand men to fight. Together with Xin Sheng, he ambushed Yan Ju's cavalry general and then captured Xindu."
"It can be seen along the way that Zhao Shu is growing rapidly. This kind of growth is so fast that it is simply rare."
"What he did in Xindu was domineering and sharp, his actions were meticulous, and his character was decisive. This person has completely grown up since then."
"Now we are able to command an army of 200,000 to coordinate the attack on Handan..."
