Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 234 Generals from the 4 countries gather together

Chapter 234 The generals of the four countries gathered together
at the same time.

Zhao Guodaicheng.

Zhao Wangyan looked at the dancing singer standing in the side hall with blurred eyes, picked up a piece of beef on the plate on the table and threw it into his mouth, listening to the musical instrument with a look of enjoyment on his face.

Prime Minister Guo Kai, who was sitting below, raised the wine glass on the table with both hands and looked at Zhao Wangyan with a reddish cheek: "Your Majesty, this alliance of six countries to attack Qin is really foresight."

"Before I entered the palace today, I received a message from Qin's spies, saying that the Qin State was short of food and grass and could only last for more than two months when there was no war. Once the Qin State faced a war, the food and grass would only be enough to sustain them for a month. It was precisely because of this that King Qin sent Wang Zijun to the grassland."

Zhao Wangyan slowly raised his wine glass, looked at Guo Kai and drank it all in one gulp.

In the Battle of Handan, it was thought that only Zhao State suffered heavy losses, but now it seems that Qin State is not much better than Zhao State.

At least Zhao State can still send 30 soldiers with the strength of the whole country, and the food and grass are fully sufficient to supply the army for several months. However, Qin State has reached the point of poverty with soldiers but no food.

Although Qi and Chu did not participate in the alliance, Zhao State had reached an alliance with the other three countries and even sent troops to assist Zhao State.

Zhao Guo's attack on Qin is already on the string. He only needs to wait for the arrival of the armies of the other three countries to attack Qin at Hangu Pass.

The combined armies of Han, Wei, Zhao, and Yan totaled more than one million people, which was more than enough to destroy a Qin state.

What's more, it is still a Qin country that is short of food and grass.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wangyan showed a smile on his face, raised his finger and pointed at the door, saying disdainfully: "From ancient times to the present, no monarch of the Six Kingdoms has ever dared to openly ask heaven for instructions. To stand on the Nine Provinces, even The kings of our Zhao Kingdom have never thought of this."

"And he, a Qin State who just came out of a barbaric land, actually gathered the Nine Cauldrons in the Qin State, and now he openly declares that Ying Ji has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and does not take the other six countries into consideration. It is simply a shame. Seeking death!"

At the end of the sentence, Zhao Wangyan stood up angrily and shouted loudly.

The State of Zhao has been lonely since King Zhao Ling.

At that time, the State of Zhao was the leader of the Seven Kingdoms, while the State of Qin was just a border country and did not even have the qualifications or courage to become king.

Now not only did he conquer the capital of his Zhao Kingdom, he even dared to openly ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

How could this not make Zhao people angry!
The Qin State can develop to be as powerful as it is today, and its strength cannot be underestimated.

Now the Qin State reached out to the grassland again and sent Wang Zijun to the grassland to plunder supplies.

You must know that the biggest material on the grassland is war horses. If Qin is allowed to send large numbers of war horses from the grassland back to Qin, then Qin will use this to train a terrifying cavalry.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wangyan couldn't help but think of the black-armored cavalry led by Ying Jun and the cavalry archer on a white horse when Qin conquered Handan.

The strength of these two cavalry is not at all inferior to that of their Hufu cavalry. If the Qin State is allowed to train the cavalry, the remaining advantage of the Zhao State in combat will no longer exist, and the Qin State's strength will also be greatly improved.

Do not!
Never let this happen!
We must hit the Qin State completely and destroy its arrogance before Yingjun can send back the supplies.

At this moment, a guard strode in from the door, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the troops of Yan, Han, and Wei have gathered outside the city, and the leading generals from each country are outside the palace to see the King."

At this time, the music had reached its climax, and the sound was so loud that it could be heard around the entire side hall.

"what?"

Zhao Wangyan only saw the guard's lips moving, but he didn't hear a word clearly.

Seeing this, Guo Kai stood up and waved to the singer who was playing and dancing.The musician immediately stopped, walked to the singer's side, bowed to King Zhao and exited the side hall.

Upon seeing this, the guard continued: "Your Majesty, the troops of Yan, Han, and Wei have gathered outside the city, and the leading generals from each country are outside the palace asking to see your Majesty."

When Zhao Wangyan heard this, his face suddenly showed a happy look, he staggered to the guard and said repeatedly:

"Good! Good!"

"Quick, let them in!"

When Prime Minister Guo Kai saw the king's drunken appearance, he quickly stepped forward to help him and said: "Your Majesty, you have drunk too much. It is not appropriate to meet with the generals at this time. If they see the king like this, I am afraid that There will be criticism.”

"Besides, the generals from various countries are here just to discuss the attack on Qin. It is better to summon General Lian Po and General Li Mu to discuss matters with the generals from various countries."

"It's rare that Queen Ji is not here. Let's just continue listening to music and dancing here. I will take the king to a newly opened entertainment place later."

Hearing this, Zhao Wangyan turned his head and looked at Guo Kai seriously.

Guo Kai swallowed, his heart was pounding and his palms were sweating.

Since Zhao Yan took the throne, the relationship between the two has gradually become worse than before. Especially with Zhao Ji's supervision, the two basically have no extra time to go out and have fun.

Every time, the king can only be invited out to have fun secretly while Zhao Ji is away.

After a moment, he suddenly laughed loudly, patted Guo Kai on the shoulder and said: "You still understand me, and you are worthy of being my confidant!"

"As you say!"

Guo Kai nodded repeatedly and waved to the guard.

Not long after the guards left, the singers and musicians who had just retreated re-entered the side hall.

The generals in charge of leading armies from various countries also left the side hall one after another after hearing the orders from the guards.

General Le Yi of Yan State sighed helplessly and said to the other two generals beside him:

"I didn't expect that the king of Zhao State was so ignorant of the overall situation. Now that our four countries have united, we should work together to discuss the strategy of conquering Qin, but King Yan of Zhao only cares about drinking and having fun. No wonder the Zhao State has declined repeatedly. "

Before he finished speaking, Wei general Pang Juan quickly turned his head and whispered: "General Le Yi, be careful! We are still in King Zhao's city. If the news reaches King Zhao's ears, it will definitely have an impact on the alliance."

General Le Yi of the State of Yan snorted coldly, turned his head and glanced at the side hall behind him, and said sternly: "So what if you know? He, the State of Zhao, begged us to make an alliance. Now that our armies have arrived, he, the State of Zhao, has no etiquette to entertain guests. No, push us to General Lian Po."

Seeing Le Yi complaining, Han Gong Zifei quickly changed the topic and said to the two of them: "Two generals, this time we are mainly focused on attacking Qin, so don't stick to these small things. Maybe Zhao Wangyan has something different." Things need to be dealt with.”

Seeing Han Fei speak, Le Yi suppressed the anger in his heart, bowed and said, "Young Master Fei is right."

When Zhao Sheng, Lord of Pingyuan, went to lobby for the alliance of the various countries, he had already informed all the countries that Qin had sent Ying Jun to attack the grassland.

If this war was not related to the fate of several of their countries, they would not have an alliance with Zhao.
