The land of Changping! Two armies confront each other!
"Invite General Lian Po to fight!" Wang Jian stood in front of the two armies and shouted.
While roaring, Wang Jian raised his sword and faced the Zhao army!
The Zhao army's formation was powerful, but Wang Jian's power could cut through the void. Every sword attack caused huge damage to the Zhao army, and even killed countless people.
If Lian Po does not go out to fight, the military formation can indeed be defended for a period of time, but this period of time is the process of Zhao Jun being killed continuously.
Among the Zhao army, Lian Po's face turned ugly for a while. Lian Po is good at defending, that is, using an army against an army, he can defend the Qin army. But you, Wang Jian, why don't you follow the rules
Go to war? It is against the general, this is the decisive battle.
How about not going out to fight and just watching him continue to kill my Zhao army
"Wang Jian! Do you want to die together?" Lian Po shouted.
Lian Po means that once the decisive battle occurs, the two armies must attack each other until they are both destroyed.
"The remaining soldiers are still standing, you and I will fight!" Wang Jian shouted.
Lian Po's expression changed and he finally agreed.
"Yin!"
The two great sword cultivators immediately stepped out and rushed towards each other.
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
Above the starry sky, a great battle broke out. Wang Jian and Lian Po were both peerless sword cultivators and killer generals in the army. The battle shattered the galaxy and shocked countless people.
However, the battle between the two at this moment is just dragging out time, and they are evenly matched.
Bai Qi, Prince Fusu, and Xunzi stood behind the army and looked at the battlefield coldly.
"Is that all?" Young Master Fusu said in a deep voice.
"I have ordered Meng Tian to lead the other Qin troops to attack Zhao from various places. It has no effect in a short time. Sir, please be patient and wait for a while!" Bai Qi said.
"It's worth waiting a few days to force out the murderer!" Xunzi advised from the side.
Fusu then nodded.
Wang Jian and Lian Po fought against the stars for a day and a night, and they stopped only when they were exhausted.
However, on the second day, when Wang Jian was resting, Bai Qi also called him Zhan Lianpo.
Among the Zhao army, Lian Po's expression changed.
Bai Qi? Although I have never seen him fight, how can it be easy to defeat Marshal Zhao? Besides himself, who else in the Zhao army can stop him
Helplessly, dragging his exhausted body, Lian Po could only fight again.
"boom!"
The battle above the starry sky was fierce. Bai Qi was a little stronger than Lian Po, but there was no overwhelming victory. After fighting for a day and night, Lian Po dragged his even more exhausted body to a truce.
On the third day, Wang Jian called for war again!
Lian Po's expression changed, and he understood that the opponent was just trying to exhaust his troops. His young generals couldn't bear Lian Po's suffering and stepped forward to fight, but Wang Jian killed him with a sword.
Lian Po could only drag his exhausted body to fight Wang Jian again.
Bai Qi looked at the battle in the sky and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Master, this Lianpo is indeed a rare talent. Although I try my best to suppress my strength, there are really not many people in the world who can stop me!"
"General Bai, you don't need to exercise too much restraint. You can defeat Lian Po and injure him, that's fine!" Xunzi said calmly.
"Okay!" Bai Qi responded.
On the fourth day, Bai Qi's strength finally caused Lian Po to be injured.
"Lian Po, you are old!" Bai Qi slashed Lian Po into the ground with his sword and said from above.
"Poof!" Lian Po vomited blood with a look of resentment on his face.
On the fifth day, Wang Jian fought against the injured Lian Po, which also made Lian Po more injured!
The two armies faced each other, and the coach suffered repeated injuries. This also had a huge impact on the morale of the army.
There was a commotion among the Zhao army, and the news quickly spread to the Zhao court.
There was even more chaos in the Zhao Kingdom Hall.
"What does Lian Po do for food? What kind of soldiers does he lead? An army of 400,000 is stationed in Changping. They don't move every day, watching! He doesn't know that the Qin army has bypassed Changping and invaded our country of Zhao? Our country of Zhao Several cities were captured by Meng Tian's army, Lian Po, Lian Po!" King Zhao slapped his palm on the throne.
"Your Majesty, Qin's military strength is even greater. General Lian Po has tried his best. Because General Lian Po is stationed in Changping, Qin's 400,000-strong army cannot invade!" said an official.
"He is the commander-in-chief. Lian Po is the commander-in-chief. Isn't the role of the commander-in-chief to use the art of war to defeat more with less? Why did all the 400,000 troops have to die in Changping? Doesn't he know that this is Qin's conspiracy?" And An official said solemnly.
"Zhao Kuo is right. Is Lian Po out of his mind? The Qin army is 400,000, and he is also 400,000. Why can't he be flexible? The army won't move anyway, it's just a battle between generals!" King Zhao said in a deep voice.
"We can't delay it any longer. Lian Po is fighting meaninglessly with Wang Jian and Bai Qi every day. He allows Meng Tian to lead his troops to surprise the major cities of Zhao. The major cities of Zhao have no time to deploy and will be lost like this. , before long, our Zhao country will lose most of it!" Zhao Kuo said anxiously.
"Then Su Qin, after being sealed by the Prime Minister of the State of Zhao, didn't he go to unite all countries? Why hasn't he brought troops from all countries here yet?" King Zhao asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty, Su Qin was delayed for a while when he went to Wei State. He just arrived in Qi State and has not had time to convince the King of Qi!" said an official.
"How slow! By the time Su and Qin join forces from all over the world to come, I am afraid that our country, Zhao, will have been completely destroyed by Meng Tian!" King Zhao said with an ugly expression.
"Yes, I don't know why, but I spent too much time in Wei!" Zhao Kuo said with an ugly expression.
"What should we do? Let Meng Tian continue to destroy my city?" King Zhao asked anxiously.
"Report!" A young general rushed into the hall.
"Your Majesty, General Lian Po has come to report that the Qin State has used the strategy of exhausting the army and called on General Lian Po to fight every day. General Lian Po is seriously injured. Please select the most powerful man to go and support him!" The young general knelt down and said. .
"Lian Po can't be stopped anymore?" King Zhao's expression changed.
"What can't be stopped? It's because the Qin generals were too shameless and took turns dealing with Lian Po! Huh, if you want to blame Lian Po, it's his incompetence!" Zhao Kuo said coldly.
"Lian Po is incompetent?"
"Now, we are all troubled by the fact that Meng Tian led his army to defeat the Zhao city. Lian Po could hold on for ten days and he could hold on for twenty days. Now he is tired? What is it if it is not incompetence? Improper use of troops caused the Qin army to advance and destroy My city is due to incompetence. The commander of the three armies, leaving an army of 400,000 men unmoving and rushing to the front by himself, is due to incompetence! He goes out to fight on his own and cannot have any effect, and still complains about suffering and tiredness, this is due to incompetence!" Zhao Kuo said coldly.
The young general who came to report was dissatisfied and said: "Marshal works hard every day. If Wang Jian and Bai Qi hadn't taken turns to fight, Marshal wouldn't have been injured!"
"Do you have the right to speak here?" Zhao Kuo stared.
The young general gritted his teeth and lowered his head in silence.
"Zhao Kuo, you are like a god with your troops. Every time you anticipate the enemy, you will not miss anything. What do you think we should do?" King Zhao looked at Zhao Kuo expectantly.
Zhao Kuo frowned and thought deeply, pacing back and forth in the hall.
Meng Tian uses his troops strangely. No one knows which city he will appear in next time. He will definitely hit the target if he goes out. Every time the Zhao State sends troops, it is too late. It is difficult to stop Meng Tian, but it is not impossible. It requires a large number of troops, but the strength of the troops is They were all trapped in Changping by Lian Po.
It was obviously too late to wait for Su and Qin to unite the six kingdoms. When Su and Qin succeeded in uniting the six kingdoms, Zhao might all be destroyed.
The commander-in-chief of the Qin army is in Changping.
Zhao Kuo pondered deeply and understood that there was no need to delay and there was no room for waiting. If it dragged on any longer, Lian Po might be fine, but the country of Zhao would be over. The country of Zhao would be over. Everything he had in the country of Zhao would be in vain.
what to do
Turning his head, Zhao Kuo looked at the young general who came to deliver the message: "Tell me, what was the outcome of each battle between Lian Po, Bai Qi, and Wang Jian?"
"Wang Jian's strength is comparable to that of Marshal Lian Po. If General Lian Po is not injured, he can keep fighting. Bai Qi is a little stronger than Marshal Lian Po, but not much stronger. It is his first time to deal with General Lian Po. Neither of them were injured. The second time, General Lian Po was injured because General Lian Po was tired. The third time, General Lian Po was even more tired, and Bai Qi hurt General Lian Po even more!" said the young general.
"In other words, Wang Jian and Lian Po are about the same strength. Bai Qi is stronger than Lian Po, but how strong is he? Can Lian Po fight with him for a day and a night without getting hurt?" Zhao Kuo stared at the young general.
"Yes!" said the young general.
Zhao Kuo clenched his fists and his eyes suddenly changed.
"Zhao Kuo, do you have any idea?" King Zhao asked worriedly.
"Your Majesty, I will go in person!" Zhao Kuo said in a deep voice.
"You?" The ministers suddenly became worried.
After all, everyone knows that Zhao Kuo is not very strong. Even Lian Po can't defeat Bai Qi and Wang Jian, what's the use of you
"Your Majesty, when you lead an army in a war, you don't care about the personal bravery of the soldiers. Otherwise, what would you do with the army? Lian Po is old after all. He has an army of 400,000 and will not use it! It's ridiculous to show off personal bravery! When I go, I will definitely mobilize an army of 400,000. , let them use them all, so that we can stop the Qin army!" Zhao Kuo said.
As soon as Zhao Kuo spoke, the whole palace nodded. After all, Zhao Kuo was extremely unique in talking about the art of war. Isn't it a joke in itself to have an army of 400,000 people sitting idle
"Hmph, I always thought that Lian Po was stubborn, and he was right. He could only defend but not attack. One general was incompetent and the whole army was exhausted! Fortunately, I have my beloved Zhao Kuo!" King Zhao suddenly sighed.
Originally, King Zhao had objections to Lian Po, but it was only when Qin invaded that he suppressed his opinions and entrusted him with important responsibilities. Now that Lian Po was unable to succeed, King Zhao naturally despised him.
At the same time, Zhao Kuo had unique words to say every time he discussed politics, and every time he spoke from his heart, King Zhao felt that Zhao Kuo was very powerful in talking about military matters on paper. Now that Zhao Kuo was going to fight, King Zhao was naturally relieved.
"From now on, Zhao Kuo takes Lian Po's place and dispatches the Zhao army to resist the invasion of Qin!" King Zhao shouted.
"Your order!" Zhao Kuo responded.
Although many of the ministers felt it was inappropriate, there was no other way at the moment.
Let Zhao Kuo choose 50,000 pieces of music and head towards the land of Changping.
----------
Zhao Kuo asked Ying to replace Lian Po. The news soon spread to Wei State.
In the palace of the King of Wei.
The fish food that the young master pretended to throw into the pond also stopped.
"Zhao Kuo?" Young Master said with a fake glare.
"Yes! Zhao Kuo volunteered for the job!" Long Yangjun said respectfully.
"Zhao Kuo is the murderer of Deng Lingzi? How could it be him? Bring me all his information!" the young master said in a false voice.
"It has been placed in the pavilion!" Long Yangjun said respectfully.
The young master immediately threw all the fish food into the pond, went into the pavilion and started reading.
"Zhao Kuo, the son of a general under Zhao Yong in the past. After his father died, he studied the art of war and did not achieve much. Until the new King Zhao came to the throne, he showed his talent. Of course, it was all talk on paper and rhetoric! He never showed it. Strong swordsmanship! I never compete with others! I love the art of war and win the favor of Zhao*! Last time Chang Ping sold swords, he also participated. Unfortunately, when he saw the chaos, he hid in the carriage! He survived by luck !" Long Yangjun said respectfully.
The young master studied Zhao Kuo's information carefully.
After reading it, the young master's face turned ugly for a while: "Love the art of war, but don't like the art of swordsmanship? Chang Ping sells swords, timidly hides in the carriage, but has the courage to face the anger of the Qin army? In the extremely deep waters of Zhao Guo's court, but deep Zhao Ren? His father also followed Zhao Yong? Ha, ha ha ha, we were too careless before! So careless!"
"Sir, could this Zhao Kuo be the real murderer?" Long Yangjun asked worriedly.
"Hmph, my son was persuading the conspiracy next to Fusu. We held Su Qin Hezong back. Didn't we just set up a stage for the murderer? Only the murderer will step onto this stage, and if Zhao Kuo steps up, he is the murderer!" There was a flash of anger in the young master's false eyes.
"But how could Zhao Kuo have such a powerful swordsmanship if he is not an outstanding figure? He is comparable to Zhao Yong and Gai Nie!" Long Yangjun said blankly.
"Let's go, let's go to the land of Changping. Then we'll know why, hum!" the young master said in a cold voice.
