Therefore, the reform of Pingkangfang was officially confirmed to be the new policy of Zhao.

King Zhao issued an order to let Zhao Kuo be fully responsible for promoting this reform to various parts of Zhao State, and the deadline given was three years.

This matter is of course very easy for Zhao Kuo to do. After all, Zhao Kuo only needs to come up with the ideas and ideas in his mind, so there will naturally be a lot of loyal subordinates to help Zhao Kuo deal with the rest.

Zhou Shaofen was obviously slapped in the face in this matter, but after the incident spread, there was a very strange change in the ears of the people of Zhao State.

"Isn't it natural for Wu Xinjun to win in the political struggle?

Actually, there is nothing to be surprised about."

"That's right, so many political enemies have wanted to defeat Wu Xinjun over the years, but their results have been slapped in the face by Wu Xinjun.

So I said that Zhou Qing’s loss is not surprising at all. On the contrary, if Zhou Qing wins, that would be really strange.”

"It's pretty good now. With Wu Xinjun coming to take charge of the overall situation, the others just obediently obediently follow Wu Xinjun's orders.

Don’t make any more careful thoughts. Anyway, I think only Wu Xinjun can make us truly powerful.”

“That’s right.

Isn’t the reason why our Zhao State was able to destroy Yan State and Wei State in recent years because of the existence of Wu Xinjun?

So, we must believe in Wu Xinjun, and no one else needs to worry about it anymore.”

Although these remarks are only part of Handan City, they actually reflect how strong the trust in Zhao Kuo is in the current political arena and the people of Zhao State.

A simple summary is just one sentence: only Zhao Kuo can save Zhao State.

This matter ended here. After a few days, everyone stopped talking about the reform of Pingkangfang, but began to discuss another thing, that is, the war to destroy South Korea, which is still underway in Zhao State.

South Korea, Xinzheng City.

Li Mu looked at the tall Xinzheng city wall in front of him, and his brows never let go.

"These damn Koreans can't fight in wars, but they are still good at building turtle shells."

No wonder Li Mu complained like this. The Koreans' defense was too complete, which made Li Mu, who had been through a long battle formation, feel a little unaware of the ability to start.

In fact, Li Mu did not have any other means. As long as the explosives in his hand could reach a sufficient amount, it would be impossible to blow up the city wall.

However, Li Mu was also very clear that explosives could never be taken out unless they had to be.

There are many generals from Zhao State around Li Mu, who are reporting the situation to Li Mu.

"General, all the Korean cities have been conquered by us. Yangdi City just fell two days ago."

The two most famous cities in South Korea are Yangdi City and Xinzheng City, which are the former capital of South Korea and the current capital.

Now that the old capital Yangdi City has fallen, the Korean defenders in this new journey have become the last Korean army that is still fighting.

In other words, as long as this city can be conquered, South Korea can officially declare its destruction.

However, Li Mu was somewhat unhappy in the face of such news.

In Li Mu's opinion, South Korea should have perished long ago, rather than being dragged to this day.

If these Koreans have the courage to go out of the city and fight to the decisive battle, Li Mu feels that he can still give South Korea a decent road to national destruction.

It’s a pity that these Koreans have obviously made up their minds long ago that they will not surrender no matter what. They will only stick to this city until the last moment.

Li Mu touched his chin and said helplessly: "Send someone to tell Handan again that there is no result here for the time being. Besieging this city should be a long-term job, so that Handan can also make corresponding preparations."

Although Li Mu was a little anxious, he actually knew that such things could not be rushed.

In fact, from the perspective of war, Li Mu only took more than a month or two months to defeat South Korea until the last city was left. This is definitely a speed that no one can find fault with anyone coming.

Li Mu's information was quickly sent to Handan, and on another court meeting, Xu Li notified the king and ministers of Zhao.

Even though Zhou Shaofen was very inconsistent with Zhao Kuo's faction in this matter, Zhou Shaofen did not raise any objections or doubts.

Because Zhou Shaofen also knew very well whether to oppose or question at this time, he could only humiliate himself. If he really wanted to do this, he would have to wait until Li Mu failed.

King Zhao also had the same idea. He said, "As long as you can conquer South Korea within this year, it seems that such hope should be quite large at present."

King Zhao spoke with obvious joy in his tone. After all, this is the third country that King Zhao is about to destroy.

This is an unprecedented achievement for any monarch of Zhao State, and it will inevitably be recorded in historical books in the future.

Zhao Kuo nodded, agreed with King Zhao's analysis, and also put forward his own opinions.

"Although the current situation is indeed quite beneficial to us, I think there are still some other aspects that should be worthy of attention, especially in diplomacy.

According to the spies from our State of Zhao among the other three countries, Qi State has no plans to mobilize troops at the moment, but Qin and Chu State seem to have some signs of mobilizing troops. This is absolutely necessary, King."

When King Zhao heard this, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Actually, this is the reason. Wu Xinjun, you have to prepare well. You must not let these guys interfere with my cause of destroying South Korea. Do you understand?"

Zhou Shaofen on the other side listened to these words and felt as if he had been completely ignored in this court discussion, but Zhou Shen could not make any comments, because this kind of ignorance was not done intentionally by Zhao Kuo, but was completely the King of Zhao who had been asking Zhao Kuo.

As Zhao Kuo said, the Qin and Chu countries in the distance are indeed having a discussion. Should they go to war against Zhao?

Xianyang, Qin Palace.

King Ying Zichu of Qin sat on the throne and said to the other Qin ministers present: "Tell me, should we go to war with Zhao recently?"

Ying Zichu is definitely the king who hates Zhao the most, so for him, he is unwilling to give up any opportunity that may hit Zhao the country.

If it was another question, the moment Ying Zichu finished speaking, there would definitely be a lot of people rushing to answer.

However, when it comes to the issue of Zhao State, there are always habitual distractions here.

This is actually not surprising, because for these Qin ministers, they really have a shadow on Zhao.

Over the years, the number of victories in the war between Qin and Zhao can be said to be a handful of them.

More importantly, Qin has never defeated Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo for one day, the pressure in the hearts of the people of Qin has been there.

In this case, when it comes to Zhao State, it is natural that no one dares to speak.

Even Ying Zichu was used to this situation, so he didn't talk nonsense and just called out.

"Taishi, what should you do?"

The Qin State Grand Master Lu Buwei thought for a while and gave an answer.

"King, the old minister thinks that it is indeed not the time to go to war with Zhao State.

Although we beat Zhao State once last year, that time was led by Lian Po.

This time, the general sent by Zhao State was Li Mu. This Li Mu is the number one general under Zhao Kuo. If we face him, we will have very little confidence in victory."

For Lu Buwei, of course he did not want to see Qin and Zhao go to war.

The overall strategy is very simple, which is to delay the war between Qin and Zhao. When one day there are only two countries left in the world, Lu Buwei can legitimately return to Zhao in the name of surrender.

Lu Buwei's view was not unexpected to the others present. After all, Lu Buwei has always been known for compromising with Zhao State and paying attention to peace.

After hearing Lu Buwei's words, Fan Sui, the prime minister of Qin, frowned and said, "Although the truth is this, if we do nothing, wouldn't Korea be destroyed in vain?

Now two countries in the world have been destroyed by Zhao. If we still do this so desperately, Zhao will become stronger. What should we do next?"

For Fan Sui, Zhao State was definitely the country he hated the most. After all, Qin State, which was extremely powerful back then, was knocked out by Zhao State step by step and became a second-rate country today.

Lu Buwei smiled and said to Fan Sui: "Don't you know that the people of Zhao have actually gathered 200,000 troops in Handan City?"

These 200,000 soldiers were not going to argue with South Korea, they were waiting for rescue from other countries.

If we rescue South Korea, then these 200,000 troops will come towards us. I would like to ask if the current Daqin can really be defeated. Is it very likely that this 200,000 troops led by Zhao Kuo himself?"

After Lu Buwei said this, the audience suddenly became silent, and no one could continue to speak.

Ying Zichu, who had some hope, could only shake his head helplessly when he saw this scene, and said, "Okay, okay, I know, so don't talk nonsense anymore, just do as the Grand Master said."

Although he was very reluctant, Ying Zichu eventually followed Lu Buwei's advice and decided not to send troops to oppose Zhao State, so as not to attract 200,000 troops from Zhao State to strike stones with eggs.

On the other hand, the monarch and ministers of Chu also discussed the same issue.

The King of Chu said slowly, "The ambition of Zhao State is really endless. First, he destroyed Yan State and Wei State, and now it is South Korea.

If he continues to do this, I am afraid that our State of Chu will soon suffer."

There is certainly a reason why the King of Chu said this. Looking at the current national border, in addition to South Korea, the capital closest to Zhao State is Chencheng of Chu State.

In other words, once South Korea perishes, the pressure faces to the capital of Chu is the greatest.

As long as Zhao State is willing, the surging army from Handan can cross the Yellow River at any time and appear outside the capital of Chu State.

Considering the current comparison of national strength between Chu and Zhao, this kind of picture is enough to make the King of Chu unable to sleep or eat.

After hearing the words of the King of Chu, the other ministers of Chu also had different opinions.

As the leader of the most steadfast opposition to the Zhao faction, Grand Sima Jingyang, who was well-known in the audience, immediately spoke: "What the king said is that now our Chu State should join forces with other countries to send troops to rescue South Korea and cannot continue to hesitate.

If South Korea is destroyed, it will be really difficult.

Because the people of Zhao will never know how to satisfy themselves. This is an extremely greedy country. Zhao Kuo, the helper of Zhao State, is even more a person with endless desires. We must not give Zhao Kuo and Zhao State any chance to continue to become stronger."

Jing Yang's words undoubtedly made the King of Chu's idea of ​​going to war a little more firm, but you should know that there is not only Jing Yang's in the State of Chu.

The Chu State's Order, Chunshen Jun Huang Xie, spoke, "Jingyang Grand Sima, it's very wrong for you to say this.

Don’t you know that there are 200,000 troops gathering in Handan, Zhao State?

If we send troops, wouldn’t this mean we are going to fight this 200,000 army to a life-and-death war? Do you really think we can defeat the 200,000 troops of Zhao State?”
