The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 568
After finding an excuse to appease the ministers.

Lu Buwei went forward and said: "Your Majesty exchanged fifteen cities for a woman, and the generals of the Qin State were outraged, and Zhao Guochaotang also played with Wen Tian and Wu Wu because of this.

After praising Qin Yiren, he went on to say: "After Daqin sent fifteen cities, I can also take the opportunity to raise troops to attack Zhao. Zhao's soldiers are not enough. After eating this fat, the city's garrison will be weak... ..."

After Zhao Guo was slashed by Changping, the young and strong in the country were already out of reach.So Lu Buwei's words are indeed old-fashioned words for seeking the country.Even if Zhao Guo wanted these fifteen cities, he would only be puffy if he swallowed them in one gulp. This huge territory would turn Zhao Guo from a tightly clenched iron fist into a mess of loose sand.Qin Guo took this opportunity to attack Zhao, thinking about it, it must be much easier than before.

With Lu Buwei's words, the officials were puzzled at first, and then their faces were filled with joy.

This time, it seemed that the Qin State was at a disadvantage, but why not advance by retreating.

Xiang Shaolong had also disliked the entire court of the Zhao Kingdom for a long time, and immediately controlled the monarch and his ministers to make plans to attack Zhao, and after Wu Tingfang was sent to Xianyang, the capital of Qin, he sent troops to destroy Zhao.

He wants to kill Zhao Li with the hand of Qin State....

……

……

More than ten days later, after Qin State ceded fifteen cities to Zhao State, Wu Tingfang was sent to Qin State as promised.

On a street in Xianyang, the capital of Qin, Wu Tingfang had mixed feelings in a galloping carriage. She didn't know why she was favored by the King of Qin, and she was even willing to exchange her at such a high price.It stands to reason that she should be happy to have escaped from Zhao Guohu's mouth, but when she thought that the family was still imprisoned, she still couldn't feel happy.

Soon, Xiangfu.

The carriage stopped here.

"Is it Shaolong?"

"He saved me?"

Wu Tingfang knew Qin Xiaozhuan, and when she saw the plaque, she immediately thought of Xiang Shaolong.Xiang Shaolong escorting Crown Prince Qin back home will definitely be appreciated by the Qin State, but it is not likely that he will have too much prestige with the King of Qin, willing to give up fifteen cities in exchange for her life.

"Please, Miss Wu, come in."

The waiter outside the door waited for a long time, seeing Wu Tingfang in a daze, he reminded her.

Entering the mansion, pass through the screen wall, the verandah, and step into a living room.At the entrance of the living room, Xiang Shaolong paced back and forth, looking anxious, it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.

"Shaolong."

Wu Tingfang was overjoyed when she saw this, she quickly flew over and fell into Xiang Shaolong's arms.

The two hugged each other tightly, neither of them spoke.

"Shaolong, I'm sorry for you. After I was imprisoned, I was innocent..." When the two separated, Wu Tingfang couldn't help but hugged her knees and cried bitterly.

She has a good reputation in the Zhao country, if she hadn't been protected by Wuzhi in the past, she would have become someone else's plaything long ago.But when He Clan was arrested, she had no one to protect her, and she was so beautiful, it was hard to keep her innocence.

Xiang Shaolong's face changed a few times, blue and white intertwined, he clenched his fists, "Zhao Li, I, Xiang Shaolong, are incompatible with you. After Qin State destroys Zhao State, I will definitely make life and death worse for you..."

Although there must be Juluhou Zhao Mu's hatred among them, but compared to Juluhou Zhao Mu, Xiang Shaolong still hates "Zhao Li" who defeated him one after another.What's more, "Zhao Li" is now in charge of Zhao's government. If Wu Tingfang's matter has little to do with "Zhao Li", that is obviously impossible.

"I have been responsible for this life..."

Wu Tingfang suddenly stopped crying, and after saying this to Xiang Shaolong, she slammed into the courtyard pillar, as if she wanted to decide herself.

But Xiang Shaolong's martial arts skills are much higher than Wu Tingfang's, and he quickly hugged the beauty by the waist, "Tingfang, don't be impulsive, I won't care about your loss of chastity, it's up to you, I know, Don't worry, I will never care about this matter from now on..."

Although he has the style of a Cao thief..., Mrs. Ni, Mrs. Ya, Zhao Ji, etc. are all like this.But Wu Tingfang is his wife, so there is a difference.If other men touched Wu Tingfang, he would never let it go.

But... about Wu Tingfang, he can only choose to forgive.

The reason why he chose to redeem Wu Tingfang as soon as possible was because he was worried that the redemption would be too late...

"Shaolong, is it true?" Wu Tingfang showed joy, as if she couldn't believe it.

If she really committed suicide, she would have committed suicide the moment Wujiabao fell.With her beauty, she will not fail to understand what will happen once Wujiabao is destroyed.Even without mentioning the matter in Zhao State, she had countless chances to commit suicide on the way to Qin State.

But it happened in front of Xiang Shaolong...that was because he had made up his mind, Xiang Shaolong would not just let her die.After all, it cost so much to redeem her earlier.

It's not that she doesn't like Xiang Shaolong, it's just that she cherishes her life more.

Father, like son.Xiang Shaolong didn't guess the true meaning in Wu Tingfang's heart, he stroked Wu Tingfang's black hair, "Don't worry Tingfang, Zhao Mu, Zhao Li and others, I will kill them one by one to avenge you , you don't need to be too concerned..."

The two had been separated for a long time, and they met again after going through a catastrophe. This conversation couldn't be stopped.After talking for about half an hour, Wu Tingfang suddenly realized that her entire family was still in prison, and asked quickly: "Shaolong, what should I do? My father and my grandfather are now being imprisoned in the Zhao State Prison. Is there a way to save them?"

Save them?

Xiang Shaolong wanted to laugh after hearing this.Just to save Wu Tingfang, he already paid a lot.Not to mention the people in Wujiabao.These people have little to do with him.

It's just that these words from the bottom of my heart can't be said truthfully.He coaxed Wu Tingfang and said: "Tingfang, don't worry, after the state of Qin defeats Zhao, if there is a chance, I will definitely invite the king to order the state of Zhao to hand over the head of the Wu clan, as well as your father, your mother and others... , but there is no rush right now."

These words are not enough to be believed.But Wu Tingfang had no other choice, she couldn't force Xiang Shaolong to rescue her, otherwise not only would she not be able to save Wufu and her family, but on the contrary it would make Xiang Shaolong loathe her.She nodded her head, "I know, I'm waiting for that day, I'll leave this matter to you, Shaolong..."

Xiang Shaolong naturally agreed.

……

The Qin-Zhao war is about to break out.

Although the national power of Qin State is far stronger than that of Zhao State, this does not mean that Zhao State has no power to fight.What's more, Zhao Guo also has Bai Gui to help.In the world of Qianyuan, Bai Gui conquered the kingdoms of Jin, Song and Xixia all the way, and worshiped Han Shizhong as his teacher. Wait until you are familiar with it.

Bai Gui is not afraid of attacking Qin.

However, he was not in a hurry to take command, but first invited Zhao Wangdan to let the veteran Xinping Jun Lianpo take the lead first to defend against Qin Shi.It is also a credit to manage the internal affairs well.There is no rush.Leading the army rashly and winning the battle, although he has made great military achievements, he cannot maximize his benefits.

The Qin State sent 25 troops this time, led by Xiangbang Lu Buwei himself, and Meng Wu as the deputy general.In the Warring States Period, there was no distinction between civil and military.Although Lu Buwei entered the court of the Qin State by relying on rare goods to live in, he was able to sit firmly in the position of prime minister because of his solid military exploits.

Relying on the strength of the Qin army, Lu Buwei pushed all the way to the border of Zhao State and regained the eight cities previously ceded.Even though Xinpingjun Lianpo was good at fighting, Lianpo was old and Zhao soldiers were weak. After several battles, he was at a disadvantage, losing troops and losing generals.

Zhao Guo can beat a weak country like Yan Guo.But if he really met Qin Ruishi, who was in full swing, Zhao Guo's weakness would be revealed without a doubt.

One day, seven urgent reports from the border.

The state of Zhao is in danger, and it seems that it will be in danger of subjugation again in the next moment.

"The minister is willing to lead the army to fight."

Inside Zhao Wang Palace, Bai Gui walked into the bedroom and said to Zhao Wang Dan who was recuperating: "Although Master Qin is big, he is not without flaws. He is willing to lead [-] elite soldiers to break through his army."

With Lian Po's defeat, even Bai Gui, who was in charge of Zhao's domestic affairs, was implicated and questioned a lot.

"Ten thousand elite? Son-in-law, you have always been safe, how can you say such big words?" Zhao Wangdan looked a little haggard, and was lying on the soft couch. When he heard Bai Gui's words, he was shocked and straightened up. "Qin Jun has 25 People, you lead 1 people, even if there is Lord Xinping to resist the main force, the [-] people are really too few to threaten Master Qin..."

Seeing Bai Gui's appearance, Zhao Wangdan couldn't help but think of Zhao Kuo, the son of a horse a few years ago.On paper, he has already suffered a big loss.If it weren't for Bai Gui's management of Zhao State in an orderly manner these days, which proved his ability, otherwise he would let Bai Gui take the blame if he said less...

In a battle of Changping, Zhao State became a weak state from a state competing with Qin State.This is his fault.After death, they are all ashamed of the former king.

"The minister is sure."

Bai Gui said aloud, and then explained: "Mr. Xinping is old, and he knew early on that it would be difficult for him to resist the advance of Qin's soldiers. Therefore, the training of the Northern Forbidden Army in the past few days has already achieved initial results. Your Majesty can take a look."

He was in charge of Zhao Guochaotang, and he was also named a general, and he was also in charge of a part of the forbidden army.Although not many, only 3000 people.However, he trained these forbidden troops far beyond the battle formation training method of the Warring States Period. Although the time was not long, just over a month, these forbidden troops had already taken on a completely new look.

When it comes to the peak of cold weapons, that is the Song and Jin era.As for the back, there are firearms, which is not the era of cold weapons.

If it weren't for Xiang Shaolong's presence, with his knowledge, it would not be difficult to make a cannon.As for the battle with cold weapons, he has been by Xiang Shaolong's side as the man in the mirror for a long time, knowing that Xiang Shaolong is a scumbag, and Zhao Jun's sudden strength, so he doesn't have to worry about being spotted by Xiang Shaolong.

Zhao Wangdan readily agreed and set off on the grounds of the Forbidden Army Academy.

"Is this the army trained by the son-in-law?"

He was surprised when he saw the imperial guards in the school grounds.

The former imperial army was also elite.But at most, they can maintain the stability of the formation, and they can form a formation when fighting.But today's Forbidden Army has completely changed its appearance. Not to mention the orderly advance and retreat, the key is that under the command of Lingqi, the formation can be changed flexibly, and there are many new weapons.

"With the consort here, I can sleep peacefully."

Zhao Wangdan stroked his beard and smiled.

Even if Bai Gui couldn't completely defeat Master Qin, his talents had already been revealed with these thousands of elites alone.And this is only in January.

He didn't have hope for Bai Gui to defeat the Qin army, but it would be considered a great achievement if he could hold back the Qin army's attack.

"Zhao Li listens to the order!"

Zhao Wangdan pondered for a moment, then looked at Bai Gui, "The widow ordered you to dispatch [-] elites from Gandan, and then you can rush to the front line to support Lord Xinping and hold back Qin."

"Ten thousand elites are too few."

With the lessons learned from last time, he dared not change generals temporarily.

So he just ordered Bai Gui to be a reinforcement.

As long as Lord Xinling Lianpo is around, even if he retreats every step of the way, he will not end up with a subjugated country.

"Thank you king."

Bai Gui led the decree.

……

With Bai Gui's participation in the battle, the situation on the battlefield instantly reversed.

If the strategy is not good, he will take the lead in a charge, which is enough to break through the Qin army's formation.Even in order to face the Qin army's arrow formations and crossbow formations, he directly fought with heavy armored cavalry.

Heavy armored cavalry is undoubtedly the big killer of cold weapons.

It doesn't mean that cavalry with a layer of iron armor is called heavy cavalry.To fight on the battlefield, heavy cavalry has its own set of tactics, which cannot be pieced together in a short period of time.Thanks to his battles in the Qianyuan world, Bai Gui has long been familiar with the tactics of heavy armored cavalry, and his command is like waving his arms.

As for some armor, he has the cold forging method of Xixia, and he has forged thousands of pairs of iron armor and iron swords, which are enough to not be afraid of Qin's arrows.

More than half a month of continuous fierce fighting.

Finally, Lu Buwei's Qin division was defeated by Bai Gui, and Zhao Jun took advantage of the victory to pursue and annihilated more than [-] people from the Qin division, regained the lost eight cities, and even regained part of Zhao's homeland.

With this credit, Bai Gui finally secured his position as Xiangbang in Zhao Guochaotang.

Military exploits are always number one. After returning to Zhao Guo Gandan, Zhao Wangdan immediately promoted Bai Gui to the rank of general and took charge of Zhao Guo's state affairs.

During the Warring States period, the prime minister was the prime minister with real power, commanding all officials, and the one with great prestige could even force the king.And the old practice of appointing relatives and children as prime ministers is also common.At this time, there is no official practice of ranking seniority in later generations, and those who are able come first.

……

"It seems that Zhao Li is really your fate."

"At the end of the Warring States period, there was no such person as Zhao Li. The only explanation is that you, as a time traveler, destroyed everything in the original time and space, so the will of the world gave birth to a man of destiny to kill you..."

Xianyang, inside the palace, the man in the mirror said lightly.

"What, Destiny One?"

Xiang Shaolong was startled.

No matter how poor his history is, he has at least read the Great Qin Empire written by Mr. Bai.But now that Zhao Li turned out to be out of nowhere, he was completely confused.In the past, the fame of Zhao State was only limited to one country, but now Zhao Li has already intervened in the Qin-Zhao War. If it is said that Zhao Li's name cannot be left in history, then it is impossible at all.Zhao Li is already a famous general of Zhao Guo.

"Or you can call him the son of luck."

The man in the mirror explained: "Originally the son of destiny should be Zhao Zheng, but because of your appearance, Zhao Zheng died. Although there was another Zhao Pan, it is obviously a fake. You killed the previous man of destiny in a disguised form." , so the will of the world gave birth to a stronger Man of Destiny. And this person is Zhao Li."

"His existence has not only blocked your immortal path."

"Even, the purpose of his existence is to kill you and take everything from you."

The man in the mirror confessed.

The Man of Destiny, the Son of Destiny...

The amount of information was a bit large, and it took Xiang Shaolong a while to figure it out.

"Mr. Bai, what should I do?"

he asked.

To deal with Zhao Li, he was not sure in his heart.The famous general who can deflate the army of the Qin State, has such superb martial arts skills, and is also one of the best in wisdom. No matter how you look at it, he is not as good as "Zhao Li".

"Let me teach you the way, so that you can be more sure of your life after meeting him."

The man in the mirror did not answer Xiang Shaolong's question, and sighed.
