Handan Palace City, Longtai.

Zhao Dan sat on his head with a happy smile on his face: "Mr. Pingyuan, please tell me about the latest situation now."

When Zhao Sheng, who had been looking forward to this, he immediately jumped from his seat. His waist was no longer sore, his legs were no longer hurt, and he was also very excited when he walked. Even when he spoke, his voice became louder than before.

"Everyone, let's talk about the news about Qi first. Since I learned that the main force of the Wei army was defeated by General Pang Nuan and that General Pang Nuan had led his army north, Qi army general Kuang Liang had given up his siege of Liaocheng and retreated to Gaotang. Now General Pang Nuan and General Lian Po have joined forces and are preparing to continue to work hard to completely drive the people of Qi out of Hejian!"

The good news came out, which immediately mobilized the emotions of other ministers of Zhao State, especially Yu Xin, who was on the side of Lian Po, was obviously relieved.

Although he has not said it, Yu Xin is actually a little worried that Lian Po would be killed by Kuang Liang in Liaocheng. If that is the case, it would be an extremely heavy blow to the common people and even the Zhao State.

So the next moment, Yu Xin immediately said murderously: "King, the Qi people have always been capricious, sometimes they surrender to the king and sometimes they rebel. This time, we must give the Qi people a profound lesson so that the Qi people will no longer dare to be enemies with the king!"

He said it beautifully. In fact, Yu Xin mainly hoped to downplay the adverse impact of Lian Po's previous defeat in Gaotang on the common people's faction through severe crackdown on Qi State.

Zhao Dan smiled and did not take over Yu Xin's words, but signaled Zhao Sheng to continue.

Zhao Sheng understood and continued to speak: "After conquering Juyang City, the Chu people captured the city father five days ago. Now the main force of the Chu army is advancing eastward. It seems that Suzhou should be the next target."

"Eastly, someone heard something wrong, and Bo Li said, "Shouldn't the Chu army continue to go north to attack Suiyang and Taoyi?"

Zhao Sheng shrugged his shoulders rarely, then spread his hands and smiled, "One time, another time, Zhao Chu was still fighting fiercely at that time, so Huang Xie could naturally go north and boldly meet with General Pang Nuan. But now General Pang Nuan has led his troops north to support Liaocheng, so Huang Xie naturally can only advance eastward to recover the lost territory. After all, although the Wei State was defeated, there should be about 70,000 to 80,000 Wei troops in Taoyi."

Everyone understood as soon as they heard this, the Chu people were afraid that they could not defeat the Wei people head-on, so they did not go north, but chose to regain their land first.

Judging from the current situation, if Chengfu and Juyang come to the fore, then Chu will have the confidence to regain the western part of Huaibei.

As long as Suzhou is taken down, Xia Cai, Shouchun, who are still under the control of Wei in the south, and most of Jiujiang County, will be cut off from the Chu people's ties with the Wei mainland.

In this way, the Chu State even had a great hope of regaining all the land occupied by the Wei State in the past few years.

Regarding this, the king and ministers of Zhao are naturally very happy to see this.

Zheng Zhu, who had returned from his mission to Yan State, smiled and said, "Can the King of Wei really be willing to watch the achievements of the past few years be taken back by King of Chu Yuan?"

Zhao Sheng smiled and said, "Zheng Qing doesn't know that the morale of the newly defeated Wei army is sluggish, and Taoyi has no barrier. I'm afraid that the King of Wei will not dare to send troops south easily to oppose the Chu people."

Zhao Dan gently tapped the table in front of him with his hand and smiled: "Speaking of this, I really hope that the Wei army can go south to fight the Chu army with a loss-winning battle. I just don't know if King Wei has such courage. By the way, what's the situation of the Koreans now?"

When talking about South Korea, Zhao Sheng's face suddenly became a little strange. He angrily pointed at Zheng Zhu in front of him and signaled.

Zheng Zhu coughed and said, "King, the Korean envoy just arrived in Handan last night and said he came to ask the king for peace at the order of King Han."

"Ha?" Zhao Dan was a little stunned. After a while, he snorted: "This King of Han is really an old fox!"

Obviously, Han Wangran has a very outstanding ability to change his mind when he sees the wind. He just thought that something was wrong, so he immediately sent someone to ask for peace from Zhao State.

Zhao Dan can be said to be deeply disgusted by South Korea's sudden betrayal during this war.

There are many kinds of younger brothers. For the often disobedient thorny younger brothers like Wei State, they will be almost done with a few beats from time to time. But the most disgusting thing is a guy like South Korea who is usually loyal but suddenly stabs his elder brother twice at critical moments.

If it weren't for Ju Xin's heroic combat and Xu Li's proper tactics, then once Shangdang County was conquered by the Koreans, Zhao Guo would really be on the edge of the cliff with one foot, only one step away from failure.

"This bastard, a damn traitor!" Zhao Dan cursed with a rare swear word, waved his hand as if he drove away a fly, and said coldly: "Go and tell the messenger that I want to let me negotiate with South Korea, no problem! But, that guy Han Wangran has to come to Handan in person to apologize to me! Otherwise, let him wait for my army to come to Xinzheng City!"

This request to let the kings of other countries come from their capitals in person is basically a naked humiliation.

However, none of the ministers present expressed opposition, and obviously they had been unhappy with South Korea.

After listening to South Korea's intelligence, everyone's mood also improved.

Now that Wei State is abolished, Han is seeking peace. No matter how much Qin State makes trouble, it will not be able to fight against the Central Plains. Zhao State can deal with Qi first and then consider other things.

The four countries that had put a lot of pressure on Zhao's king and ministers were now full of loopholes, and it seemed that they could be ruined at any time.

Zhao Dan coughed and said, "Since the situation is clear now, I will be rumored to have my orders. Now that the troops in Handan City are empty, we need a general to take charge. Please ask Wu Xinjun to quickly go back to Handan. As for the war against Qi on the front line, it will be left to Pang Qing to take charge."

Since Lian Po and Pang Yin have already met, then whoever is the main general and who is the deputy general is a problem that must be solved.

In terms of status and official positions, Lian Po is obviously the most suitable person to be the chief general.

But the problem is that in this war, Lian Po was originally a partial army, and he was defeated by the Qi people. Let Lian Po replace Pang Guan, who won the battle, definitely could not get the soldiers of the main force of Zhao.

With Lian Po's current status and status, it was also a humiliation to Lian Po for him to be a deputy general of Pang Xian, so transferring Lian Po back was an inevitable choice.

For Zhao Dan, this result was not what he wanted. After all, Lian Po's myth of invincibility was broken in this war, which was a big blow to the hearts of the Zhao State's military and people.

Fortunately, it seems that Zhao State should still end with victory in the end, which can dilute the blow of Lian Po's failure on Zhao State a lot.

From another perspective, Lian Po, who had experienced the failure and Pang Nuan, who had won the battle, should be evenly matched, which is a good thing for the checks and balances of the king Zhao Dan.

In general, the disadvantages of the defeat of Gao Tang are of course more, but the benefits are not lacking.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Sheng told the conquest of Yin Jincheng again, and the Zhao king and his ministers present were naturally happy again.

Logically speaking, the military information briefing should end here, and Zhao Dan only needs to make a summary.

Just as Zhao Dan was about to speak, Mao Sui's hurried figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the hall and walked towards Zhao Dan.

"King, Xianyang urgently reported that the Crown Prince Qin sent Prime Minister Lu Buwei to seek peace envoy, and was already on his way to Handan!"
