The offensive directions formulated before the war, including the arrangements of generals, had to be continuously adjusted after the war officially began. Zhao Kuo had his own ideas because he had to arrange three armies instead of gathering troops to attack Handan. The household registration and territory of Zhao were not as good as those of Chu, and the grain production was not as good as that of Wei and Qi. However, in the war between Qin and the six countries, Zhao was always the biggest opponent of Qin.

Perhaps because of the brotherly country, Zhao's military mobilization ability is very terrifying. The training required for the people in China does not need to be less Qin. This is a terrible country like Qin, which can throw all adult men in his country into the battlefield. Therefore, he can always gather hundreds of thousands of people to fight with various countries. Even if he fails and is killed, he can summon hundreds of thousands of soldiers out soon.

Wei Liao believed that Guo Kai was in Handan, and as long as the army crossed the Great Wall of Zhao, he could easily break the gate of Handan. If Guo Kai cooperated inside and outside, he might really be able to break Handan. However, after Handan was captured, the people from all over the country would choose to surrender and surrender. No, Zhao Kuo knew the soldiers he had led and his fellow villagers. When those people learned that Handan was captured, the most likely thing to do was to choose another king and continue to fight with Qin.

Zhao Kuo deployed Wang Jian and Meng Wu in the closest place to Handan to attract the main army of Zhao. He quickly took his soldiers to pacify the rest of the Zhao counties and counties, and used his reputation in Zhao to appease the people. It was not difficult... After he broke through the rear of Zhao, Wang Jian and Meng Wu could almost break through the city walls of Handan. In this way, Zhao State would be truly destructive.

If you want to break through Zhao, you don’t have to attack Handan with all your strength, but to occupy all the land of Zhao. This can only be done by Zhao Kuo himself. If a general is changed, you may encounter the secret resistance of the Zhao people, assassination, and burn food. Just like what they did to the Yan people, the result can only be to anger the general who went to attack them, and then massacre the city and kill people.

Zhao State has different meanings to Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo's arrival is not a new soul that kills the original soul and occupies the nest. This is a process of fusion. Two young people from different eras gradually become one. He has the experience of living in this era and the experience of the future. In every detail of life in Zhao State, Zhao Kuo remembers so clearly that he even died a father who clearly remembers his face and blushing because he was not a debater.

Zhao State is his home, his roots... the place where his father and grandfather live and guard. Today, it is Zhao Kuo himself who is preparing to destroy this country with his soldiers. After returning from the palace, Zhao State never closed his eyes all night. Whenever he closed his eyes, the faces of Zhao She, Lin Xiangru, Le Yi, and Lian Po always appeared in front of him. The memories of the past unfolded like a painting, and suddenly burned again, and everything became ashes.

Zhao Kuo woke up again and sat on the bed. He was stunned for a long time. At some point, two tears appeared on his face.

The next day, Zhao Kuo seemed a little unconscious. Apart from Kuyi, no one noticed this. Qin had already started mobilizing. The soldiers of Guanzhong gathered in various places and were preparing to go to Yunzhong. Meng Wu and Wang Jian had left Xianyang. They wanted to take Shangdang and Hanoi soldiers to directly attack Zhao, so they didn't have to wait... They were having dinner with their families, and Zhao Kang wanted to speak but stopped, with a little hesitant expression.

He didn't seem to have a good sleep, and he looked dazed.

Zhao Kuo glanced at him and asked, "Don't you want to attack Zhao?"

Zhao Kang shook his head and sighed: "No...but, there is something I want to ask you to make decisions for me."

Zhao Kuo frowned, "Tell me, what happened to me again?"

Zhao Kang hesitated for a while before he stood up, leaned over to Zhao Kuo and Yi, and said, "Before leaving, please rush to General Wang's mansion and propose marriage to his granddaughter...I want to get married with her." Zhao Kuo was not surprised. Speaking of this guy seemed to have been dating the girl for a long time. He looked at Yi, and Yi smiled and said, "I have inquired about it long ago... General Wang's granddaughter is smart and virtuous, and very beautiful."

"Beautiful? Can you fall in love with him?"

Yi said with some displeasure: "My son is also a famous beauty in Xianyang... There are many people who come to me to ask about his situation, so why can't they fall in love with him?"

Zhao Kuo looked at Zhao Kang in front of him and smiled foolishly.

"Okay, your son is the best, so wait until we come back from Zhao State and I will arrange Kang's marriage."

When Zhao Kang heard this, he became anxious. He said, "Father, no, it's better to get married as soon as possible. I'll go to Zhao State with you after getting married. OK? It's better to get married tomorrow!" Zhao Kuo was a little angry. He said, "You're going to the battlefield soon. Is it still too late to get married now? I'll get on the ground for a while and wait for you to come back. I'll go to find Wang himself!"

"No, my father, let's get married as soon as possible."

Zhao Kuo was completely angry, and he asked angrily: "Where is the reason why children in the world urge their parents to get married?"

"It's not me urging you, it's my child urging me!" Zhao Kang shouted helplessly, and Zhao Kuo and Yi were stunned. After a long time, Zhao Kuo reacted and stood up, "Where is my wooden stick? Where is my stick?"

When Zhao Kuo came to General Wang's mansion with a thick face, Wang's face looked very bad. He seemed to know something. Fortunately, the old general did not get angry or did not copy sticks. Zhao Kuo had never been so ashamed. Zhao Kang simply lost his face, and he didn't know how to speak. General Wang was still very considerate of him and directly told him what he wanted. The old general asked: Are you here for Kang's business?

Zhao Kuo could only leave his face behind, speak good things about his son, and express that he wanted to let his two children get married soon.

The two families officially became in-laws and agreed on the wedding.

At this time, the soldiers had already gathered, and Zhao Kuo could only helplessly leave Zhao Kang and leave Xianyang with his army. According to Zhao Kang's statement, if Zhao Kang returns to Xianyang and get married again, the children would probably be born... The war cannot be delayed, so naturally he can only leave this deputy general. Although the King of Qin was angry when he heard about this, he did not punish Zhao Kang, but just replaced Zhao Kuo with a deputy general.

The new deputy general is called Wang Ben. He is Wang Jian's son. Although he is young, he has shown extraordinary military ability. He has followed his father to participate in the war against Li Mu and has made great achievements. After Wang Ben came to Zhao Kuo, he was particularly attentive, and his eyes flashed with light when he looked at Zhao Kuo. Obviously, this is another loyal fan of Zhao Kuo. He admires Zhao Kuo very much, probably because he heard too much about Zhao Kuo from his father.

Zhao Kuo felt that he was much better than Kang, sensible and obedient.

In this way, a 50,000 army set out from Xianyang and rushed towards Yunzhong. At this moment, Wang Jian and Meng Wu had already arrived at their destination and were preparing to launch a war against Zhao. Qin's military preparations scared the ministers of Zhao. Guo Kai initially wanted to hide this news and prevent the ministers from discovering it, but Qin was about to move on the border, and Qin's scouts had already come to Zhao's territory to start investigating, so of course the news could not be hidden.

When King Zhao was young, he didn't know what Qin's attack represented. He sat in the upper position and continued to immerse himself in his own world. The ministers knew what this meant. Most of them were very scared and trembling all over. Guo Kai sat at the top of the ministers, but he remained silent at this moment. He had been helping Lu Buwei for work these days, and he had done everything that Lu Buwei had told him well.

Now that Qin has launched a general attack, what he wants to think about is how to ensure that he can live. He dare not participate too much in the war. He wants to recommend Yan Julai, who has no talent, as a general, but if this guy is defeated, will the ministers of Zhao kill him? When the Qin people came, Guo Kai's current position would not be so solid. All he has to do is to ensure his safety and wait for the Qin people to come to the city of Handan.

If Guo Kai didn't speak, naturally there were few ministers who dared to speak. Just as everyone looked at each other, one of them walked out and looked at Guo Kai angrily, saying, "The soldiers of Qin have gathered outside Handan County and are ready to attack. Why don't you speak in such a critical moment??" The young man who spoke called Cong and Zhao Cong. Because of this clan, he dared to stand up and accuse Guo Kai.

Guo Kai was not angry about Zhao Cong's accusations. Zhao Cong broke the deadlock as soon as he opened his mouth, which made him secretly happy. Guo Kai frowned and said unhappily: "I am not a general of Zhao State. I am not good at military affairs. Is there any way to defeat the enemy if you accuse me like this?" Zhao Cong's face turned red. He said: "I have no strategy to defeat the enemy, but I will not retreat. I am willing to lead troops to defeat the Qin State's army!"

"You are only thirty years old and have participated in the war less than three times... I respect you because of your origin. How dare you be so arrogant? Do you really think war is a joke?"

Guo Kai said viciously.

"Ministers in the palace, if anyone dares to go out, I will never say much. I am willing to lead a horse and drive for him..." Zhao Cong said, then looked at the ministers, who immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him. Zhao Cong looked at Guo Kai and said provocatively: "Are you going to go out by yourself, or let your beloved general Yan Ju go out?" Guo Kai looked at Yan Ju, and Yan Ju was so scared that she didn't dare to raise her head.

"Oh..." Guo Kai sighed and said, "Then please come and lead the troops to fight... I will take out all the food in the treasury to help you."

Zhao Cong bent over and bowed to King Zhao who was sitting in the upper position, took the tiger talisman, and walked out of the palace.

Guo Kai narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Cong's back. This was what you asked for yourself, and it had nothing to do with me if you were defeated.

It would take some time for Zhao Kuo to arrive in the clouds. At this time, Wang Jian and Meng Wu launched an attack at the same time. The two had completely different styles. Meng Wu gathered troops to attack Zhongmu and other big cities, and quickly approached Handan by capturing the important roads. Wang Jian divided his troops into five groups and attacked at the same time, crossed Danshui, captured all the cities he saw, and advanced wildly.

At this moment, Zhao Cong also took the soldiers in Handan and set out towards Meng Wu. He brought less than 50,000 soldiers, and the food was only enough for this army to take one month. Guo Kai's efforts were indispensable. In the past, the country that recruited hundreds of thousands of troops could not even get a hundred thousand troops... Zhao Cong gritted his teeth and led the army toward Zhongmu. Outside Zhongmu, he met Mengwu and fought against both sides.

Zhao Cong angrily shot and killed the enemy in front of him. The car beside him carried the flag of Zhao State, and the chariot was in front of him. In Handan, the soldiers of Zhao State performed their final unyielding. They followed the chariot and killed the enemy frantically, and rushed to the position of the central army. Meng Wu soon realized that the army in front of him was short of food... and now he was fighting head-on with them, which was not the best choice.

He took the initiative to retreat and no longer had bloody battles with the Zhao army.

Zhao State won the first battle. When the soldiers took out Zhao Cong from the mountain of corpses, Zhao Cong laughed loudly.

The soldiers of Zhao immediately laughed and mocked the escaped Qin army.

At the same time, Zhao Kuo came to Yunzhong and immediately sent troops to Yanmen. When Zhao Kuo led his army to Yanmen, the local Zhao people almost collapsed. They never thought that the one who came to attack them would be their own Ma Fujun. Zhao Kuo only took half an hour to capture Gao Liu. Gao Liu's guards were less than 2,000, and they had no way to resist the Qin army.

Zhao Kuo was sitting in a chariot and slowly drove into the city. The people on the road who were peeking at the Qin army entering the city looked at him in surprise. Some people recognized him, and some people learned his identity from others... The people were extremely quiet. They did not speak to greet Ma Fujun, nor did they scold Wu Chengjun in anger... They just looked at Zhao Kuo blankly, at a loss. His eyes seemed to be pierced by the steel needles in his heart. Zhao Kuo felt a little suffocated.

Gao Liu's county magistrate also knew Zhao Kuo. When Zhao Kuo was exploring the people's conditions in various places, he personally promoted the young man. Now, he has become the county magistrate. He came to surrender with the county magistrate's seal, sword, household registration and land information and other items... Zhao Kuo walked off the carriage and came to him. The county magistrate was silent for a long time and said, "Meet the Marquis of Wu Cheng."

He knelt on the ground in a regular manner, raised the seal high, and expressed his willingness to surrender.

Zhao Kuo looked around, and the people looked at him with fear and confusion. The mother hugged the child in her arms tightly, and the old man sighed, including the soldiers who put down their weapons, were all waiting for the next encounter they had to face.

"I am Zhao Kuo."

"I'm here, no one will hurt you..."

"Please don't be afraid."

Zhao Kuo said, helping the county magistrate in front of him, "Why did the villagers become so thin after a long time ago?"
