Lou Yan was very panicked.

He did not see a famous general who could defeat Bai Qi here. He just saw a noble young man who was ignorant and talked about war on paper. In the few days after Lou Sui arrived, the noble young man summoned Lian Po, Wei Wuji and others every day to give them some tasks that were impossible to complete, such as hiding the Niu Crossing the River, and igniting the flames on the ox tail when the enemy was preparing to attack and launching the fire bull formation.

Even the young Zhao generals, such as Li Mu, Tian Yue and others, were very dissatisfied with Zhao Kuo. Lou Suan heard Li Mu gritting teeth and complaining: Zhao Kuo asked him to lead the cavalry to cut off Bai Qi's food route.

Lou Yan was not stupid. Facing a scene that was completely opposite to the rumors, he wanted to find some secret soldiers arranged by Qin to ask about it. However, he did not expect that in several wars, the spies placed in the Zhao army in Qin were almost dead, and those few who survived were all responsible for logistics. The information they found was very exaggerated. Zhao Kuo rushed to the camp with a bicycle and almost stabbed Bai Qi to death with a spear.

Such exaggerated rumors actually made Lou Yan even more disbelief.

He didn't know Zhao Kuo, but he knew Bai Qi very well. Bai Qi has never been a person who took risks. He could not lose control of the army at all times, so he would not charge. The battle between the two people, Zhao Kuo stabbed Bai Qi and the like, was obviously lies. After careful investigation, Lou Yan found that these rumors all came from one of Zhao Kuo's disciples, whom the disciple called Di.

Lou Yan thought of a solution and invited Di in the name of wanting to make friends with Zhao Kuo.

To be honest, when Zhao Kuo learned that Lou Yan summoned Di, he was still a little panicked. After all, Di didn't know his arrangements, so he was afraid that he would reveal his feelings.

Sitting in the camp, Lou Yan looked at the burly and stout man in front of him and asked with a smile: "I have heard of Ma Fujun's reputation in Qin State, and I am determined to make friends with him. I learned that you are his most trusted guest, so I want to ask you about him." Di looked at him and laughed, "Then you are looking for the right person."

"At that time, my young master borrowed grain to transport it to the battlefield. He encountered an ambush from the Qin people in Taihang... My young master led the way and killed more than 40 Qin people in a row, causing the Qin people to escape..."

"At Boren, my young master is charging forward, no one can stop him. He kills the generals and seizes the flag. He alone can compete with 100,000 people!"

"In Changping, my young master met Bai Qi and was about to capture him. Bai Qi was afraid and hurriedly shot arrows. I blocked the arrows for Shao Jun..."

Lou Yan was stunned and looked at Di Tao talking nonstop. Di said this all night. Lou Yan felt his ears roaring, and he shouldn't have looked for this guy, but no matter what he said, the warrior just didn't want to leave and continued to talk about Ma Fujun's heroic past. Poor Lou Yan couldn't push him. When Lian Po walked into the camp, Di Yi looked at Lou Yan with an unsatisfactory look and left reluctantly.

Lou Suan excitedly held Lian Po's hand: Thank you, the old general.

Lian Po looked very unhappy: Zhao Kuorang did not know how to use military tactics, so he wanted to temporarily reorganize the army and withdrew the soldiers stationed in the Danshui defense line, making the defense line completely empty. He came to say goodbye to Lou Sui, and he wanted to take his personal soldiers to defend to avoid Bai Qi's attack.

Lou Yan said goodbye to Lian Po. After Lian Po left, he had time to think seriously, but Di's words seemed to echo in his ears, making him dizzy. He had never seen such a talkative person. Zhao Kuo wouldn't say anything else, but this guest was full of talents. Lou Yan could tell that Di was lies. He had also seen Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo was indeed tall and strong, but he was a chief general and could not kill the general and seize the flag in the formation of 100,000 people!

It seems that Lian Po and Wei Wuji are not telling lies. This general pursues fame very much, so he appointed people like Di to build momentum for him. In fact, he has no talent. Otherwise, even his father, mother, and people like Lin Xiangru would criticize him so severely?

Lou Yan was sitting in the camp seriously, he was waiting, waiting for news about Danshui.

After waiting for two days, Zhao Kuo's organization had been completed, but Bai Qi did not launch an attack. Even when it was empty, Bai Qi did not launch an attack. Lou Yan narrowed his eyes. Why did Wu Anjun pretend to be defeated? Why did he deliberately lose to Zhao Kuo?

It was Ying Hou’s plan to ask King Zhao to use Zhao Kuo, but if Wu'an Jun and Ying Hou were in conflict, would he be...

Lou Yan shook his head. Wu Anjun could not have made such a great sacrifice to frame Ying Hou.

Suddenly, he remembered the embarrassed face of King Qin when he talked about Bai Qi's military merits. He suddenly woke up and could not be sealed!

Lou Yan was ready to leave and wanted to rush to Handan because he found that Zhao Kuo was not worthy of being his opponent at all. Faced with such a young noble man, all of Lou Yan's original plans were useless.

If you want to play chess, you have to find an opponent who knows how to play chess. Facing someone who can't even understand the chessboard, you cannot form a chess game.

Lou Yan still said goodbye to Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo looked at him proudly. He couldn't help but smile when he heard Lou Yan's flattery. Lou Yan felt particularly contemptuous, but he still looked respectful. Zhao Kuo waved his hand and gave him a reward, and said, "I heard that my disciple Di and you will fall in love with him at first sight. Why not send him to escort you to Handan."

"No, no, thank you, Ma Fujun, there is no need to do so." Lou Yan shook his head in horror.

Finally, Di still did not follow Lou Yan to go with him. Lou Yan breathed a sigh of relief, sat in the carriage, and walked towards Handan. He wanted to pass the city, to Wu'an, and then to Handan. Now these cities will not open easily, so Lou Yan could only live outside the city. The roads in Handan County were far more dilapidated than when he left Zhao State, with weeds and bumpy.

The Qin people who were walking with him complained about this path, their eyes full of anger.

Lou slowly sat in the carriage. Looking around, there were ruins everywhere. The small towns of the past have now become dead cities, empty. Outside the city, there are piles of tombs. I don’t know how many people were buried here. Looking at these piles of tombs, even the Qin people felt a little uneasy, as if someone was staring at them and gritting their teeth. Every time they passed by the piles of tombs, they were always scared and sweated.

Sitting in front of the bonfire, Lou Yan became a little silent. He looked at the ruins around him, but his former memories kept flashing in his mind.

The handsome nobleman was hunting and playing in a carriage. The people of the city came to greet him with a smile. The beautiful girl looked at him shyly... The city that had been entertained by the nobleman in the past turned into ruins, and those enthusiastic people were probably dead long ago, and their descendants were buried here.

Lou Yan stretched out his hand, pretending to scratch his head, and secretly wiped his eyes.

When the carriage approached Handan, they finally saw the traces of the Zhao people. Even the hostile Zhao people made them feel relieved. At least, these Zhao people were still alive. Strangely, the Zhao people did not show hatred for them. When they learned that they were coming to discuss peace, some people even wanted to invite them to stay. The Zhao people here all had a fanatical admiration for Zhao Kuo, and they seemed particularly excited when talking about Zhao Kuo.

Lou smiled slowly and said nothing.

Finally, he arrived outside Handan City. It was no different from when he left. It was just a little deserted. As soon as the carriage arrived outside the city, a warrior came up and took them to the palace. Listening to the familiar local accent, Lou Yan felt mixed feelings. Looking at the changes in Handan City, the people here were not enthusiastic. The angry eyes of the men who had just returned from the battlefield almost drown the Qin people.

If it weren't for the warriors around, I'm afraid they had already pounced on them and tore the Qin people apart.

"Bang~~", a stone hit a Qin soldiers beside Lou Yan. The Qin soldiers suddenly bleeding from the forehead. The one who threw the stone was an old woman. The old man cried and shouted, "Give me my son back!" The warriors hurried forward and grabbed the old man. More and more people gathered around Zhao. They quietly picked up the farm tools and rushed from all directions. There was no panic on Lou Yan's face, but they just looked at these Zhao people coldly.

The elites who guarded the palace were dispatched, and the elites bravely forced these people to retreat with their spears. Faced with the people who were far more than they were, the elite soldiers showed their courage and bravely faced them, injured several people who were unwilling to leave, showing their own courage and defeated the people step by step. Surrounded by them, the Qin people walked into the palace without any danger.

When Lou Yan walked into the palace, King Zhao came to greet him in person.

King Zhao looked very enthusiastic, and took Lou Yan's hand and said seriously: "I sent someone to Qin to invite you many times, but I haven't seen you. I am very happy to be able to come today." Lou Yan smiled. He knew the character of the King of Zhao, and was not surprised. He chatted with him and finally sat down. Lou Yan looked around. King Zhao only invited a few of his confidants, and Lou Chang was not here.

At the beginning of the banquet, Lou Yan said: "Fan Ju doesn't want to truce the war. I submitted a report to the King of Qin and asked him to send me to discuss peace. Qin and Zhao are brotherly countries and should not have killed each other. I am willing to replace Qin and sign an alliance with Zhao and end the war." King Zhao smiled and said: "Okay, if you can submit a report to the King of Qin because of Zhao's affairs, it means that you still care about Zhao. I want you to stay in Zhao. What do you think?"

Lou Suddenly felt a headache.

What I mean? I told you that I wanted to end the war, and you told me that I am in the state of Zhao?

He looked at the Zhao ministers around him and found that they had no idea of ​​speaking. Then he said helplessly: "Shangjun, we can talk about the matter of staying or leaving later. Now the Qin and Zhao's hundreds of thousands of troops are confronting Danshui. If they cannot negotiate peace in time, they are afraid that they will fight again and cause great casualties. Qin and Zhao are damaged. This is something that other countries are happy to see. The two countries stop fighting and get along well with each other, which is something that the people of both countries are happy to accept."

King Zhao said sincerely: "This matter is not urgent. I have heard of your talents for a long time. If you can stay in Zhao State, I will entrust you with great matters. You have been away from Zhao State for a long time. I heard that I cannot sleep on my homeland. This is something that my ancestors will not forgive. Please stay..."

Lou Yan was "touched" and his whole body trembled.

The censor Zhao Hui suddenly asked, "I heard that you went to Danshui to meet Ma Fujun. Did Ma Fujun agree to the peace agreement?" Lou Yan glanced at him, squinted his eyes, looked at King Zhao in front of him, and said in confusion: "I did go to pay homage to Ma Fujun before, because I heard that Ma Fujun can decide the war in Zhao State." Hearing his words, King Zhao gradually frowned.

Lou Yan said again: "But, Ma Fujun is unwilling to negotiate peace. He said that he wants to capture Wu'anjun alive."

When King Zhao heard Lou Yan's words, he was shocked and asked hurriedly: "What did he really say?"

Lou Yan narrowed his eyes and nodded. Haha, King Zhao trusted Zhao Kuo more, and he would be angry when he heard Zhao Kuo's arrogant words.

Suddenly, King Zhao laughed loudly, and he said to Lou Yan with some emotion: "This is what he promised me. Before going to the war, he promised me to capture Bai Qi alive. Ma Fujun is a person who keeps his promises and a wise man from Zhao State..." King Zhao was so moved that he couldn't speak, but Lou Yan opened his mouth wide. It turned out that Zhao Kuo was really not fooling him. Does he really want to capture Wu Anjun alive???

At this moment, his suspicion of Zhao Kuo suddenly dissipated, and he was sure that he was a fool with a long and ignorant silly!

Not to mention Lou Yan, even Yu Qing was confused at this moment, looking at King Zhao and Lou Yan in front of him with a confused look on his face.

King Zhao continued to win over Lou Yan. Faced with such a passionate desire, Lou Yan was helpless and could only say that he could consider it. This made King Zhao slightly restrained. Only then did the two formally talk about peace talks. As soon as Lou Yan spoke, Yu Qing stood up and said proudly: "Only when Qin withdraws from Shangdang, Zhao will agree to peace talks with Qin."

Then there was a verbal fight, and Lou Suan and Yu Qing started arguing. The two of them refused to give in and their quarrels were so loud that they blushed.

"If you say that, I will go back and report to the King of Qin and send more soldiers to Wu'an Jun! Continue this war!!"

"Okay, we will also give Ma Fujun more support, let Ma Fujun join forces with Chu State to attack Hangu Pass!"

"The Qin State can still summon 300,000 soldiers! Five million stones of food and grass! There are countless people who are good at fighting!"

"The State of Zhao can summon 200,000 soldiers! Four million stones of food and grass! If you have a horse to serve you, you are not worth mentioning!"

Yu Qing was clamoring, and King Zhao suddenly signaled him to come forward. Yu Qing walked to King Zhao in confusion. King Zhao looked at him in embarrassment and said, "The State of Zhao cannot summon 200,000 soldiers... There is not enough food..." Yu Qing looked at King Zhao in front of him, his lips trembled, and he said loudly: "Your Lord, I am a false minister. Of course, I know how many people Zhao can summon and how much food and grass can transport."

"Oh~~", King Zhao suddenly realized, nodded and never spoke again.

Lou Yan looked at Yu Qing in front of him with a smile.

King Zhao was still thinking about a way to recruit himself.

His ministers were eating mutton in big mouthfuls just to show their courage.

There was only one Yu Qing who continued to argue with him in anger and tried his best to gain benefits for Zhao State.

Lou Yan felt a little distressed about Yu Qing in front of him.

If he were in Qin, he should be a minister who was very favored by the king.

Although Lou Yan thought so, he still did not give in to peace talks. He had arguing with Yu Qing for three days, but he could not make Yu Qing change his words. Lou Yan was a smart person. He did not pester Yu Qing anymore, but instead paid homage to King Zhao. He told King Zhao that he had arrived at Zhao State because of the order of King Qin. If he could complete his mission, he could stay in Zhao State. But if he could not complete it and he was still in Zhao State, people in the world would think that he was fleeing for fear of sin.

He Lou Yan was unwilling to bear such a crime, so if the matter did not succeed, he had to go back.

Sure enough, King Zhao was overjoyed, waved his hand and agreed to the peace talks between the two sides.

As a condition for peace talks, the building was temporarily stayed in the palace.

King Zhao set up a banquet in the palace and warmly entertained the building.
Chapter completed!
