"I know." The deputy opened the door curtain and tightened the golden sore medicine in his arms. He couldn't help but think: "Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo, today we want you to know what it means: you are a native of Qin when you come!"
However, as soon as they got off the carriage, the deputy envoy of Qin knew that it was bad.
His speed is very fast, but the speed of other countries is not slow either!
Almost at the same time as the deputy envoy got off the carriage, another carriage came from a distance. He stopped and took a look. Whose carriage was it if it was not the envoy of Wei? The two countries that were most deceived by Zhao Kuo were the first to come to Zhao Kuo's door.
Of course, this is understandable. Although the Wei State suffered a heavy loss, it was precisely because of this that the Wei State also knew the dangers of the Changping battlefield and the abilities of General Zhao Kuo.
Both are one of the Three Jins. In the eyes of the Wei people, the combat power of the Wei army may be slightly inferior to that of the Zhao army, but there is definitely no insurmountable gap. But it happened that his own army of more than 100,000 people was beaten into waste by the remnants of the Qin army, and the remnants of the Qin army were made dumplings by the Zhao army led by Zhao Kuo.
Comparing the two, in the eyes of the Wei people, Zhao Kuo was probably more capable than the 100,000 Qin army! It is not difficult to understand why he was found in such a hurry.
When the deputy envoy of Qin saw this situation, he suddenly felt that something was not good. Without him, if he were Zhao Kuo, between Qin and Wei, the chance of choosing Wei would be greater.
It's very simple. The Wei State itself is an ally of the Zhao State. In the first battle with Shangdang, Zhao Kuo and the Zhao State were the one who cheated them. But after all, the two countries did not break up, and the King of Wei did not publicly admit it because of this. Things have caused resentment or blackmail to Zhao State, so the two countries are still in a good-neighborly and friendly relationship.
After the defeat, the Wei State had almost no ability to compete with the Zhao State. Even if Zhao Kuo went there, he could only protect himself. In this country, King Zhao did not have to consider the possibility of being counterattacked. Therefore, there was a high probability that he would not stop him, and he was even happy that Zhao Kuo would disappear from now on. The two countries still have a "friendly" relationship, which also makes Zhao Kuo's departure negotiations possible.
With this alone, there may be a solution. At worst, Qin could still send sharp soldiers to help Zhao Kuo leave Handan. But from Zhao Kuo's point of view, going to Wei State is far better than going to Qin State. Not to mention rural areas and the like, at least the psychological burden is much lighter - there is still an essential difference between being cheated and being killed. of.
And once Zhao Kuo goes to the State of Wei, I'm afraid it would be better to leave Zhao Kuo in the State of Zhao! After all, after the battle of Changping and the incident with the court staff, it is still unknown whether King Zhao will use Zhao Kuo again, and whether Zhao Kuo is still willing to serve King Zhao.
But if Zhao Kuo went to Wei State, and the King of Wei spent a lot of money to poach Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo would definitely be able to earn it back, needless to say, pay heavy power. As for those who can gain territory around the Wei State, it is naturally impossible for the Zhao State. Han State is too small, Chu State is too barbaric, and the food is tasteless. No matter how you look at it, Qin State is the most suitable, and you don’t even need to think about excuses - ——The name of Fu Zhi’s old capital is famous everywhere.
Can our Qin country stop Zhao Kuo's attack? The deputy envoy of Qin was a little unsure, but what he could be sure of was: as long as Zhao Kuo is captured, nothing will be a problem. How to get it? It's nothing more than moving it for benefit and understanding it for righteousness! A plan has been slowly brewing in the mind of Qin's deputy envoy.
Just as the deputy envoy of the State of Qin was full of ambitions, the carriage of the envoy of the Wei State also arrived in front of the Zhao Mansion, and the envoys of the two countries soon met in front of the Zhao Mansion.
The deputy envoy of Qin looked at the empty-handed envoy of Wei and couldn't help but sneered in his heart, thinking: "That's it? You still want to rob people from my Qin Dynasty? My dear, we are here to rob people! We will come to rob people when we are empty-handed." Are you just trying to steal it with words? There is no sincerity at all. No wonder the talents from Wei State are running to our Daqin State!"
The deputy envoy of the State of Qin even doubted his own judgment. Is it really necessary to go through so much trouble just because of the person in front of him? Just him, is he worthy? But soon, the deputy envoy of the wine glass suppressed this doubt mercilessly. It didn't matter whether the Wei envoy in front of him was worthy or not. The key was that General Zhao Kuo inside the door was worth the price!
When the Wei envoy saw the Qin envoy and the objects he kept taking off from the carriage behind him, he was a little confused. Is he so cruel? It was my first time to visit my house and I brought a cart full of gifts. They were all rare gold and jade objects, and each one was of great value.
City! There is also a pot-shaped jade in the hand, which is completely green. If such a beautiful jade can be used as a vessel, how valuable must the contents be?
"This is a big investment. Don't you plan to spend this year, envoy of Qin?" The envoy of Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Looking back at himself, his hands were not empty, but the basket of fruits was obviously a little empty. Shameless. Well, why not go back! It’s so shameful and embarrassing!
In the end, the Wei envoy did not leave. He forced himself to calm down and ignored the Qin envoy. He stood directly outside the door of the Zhao mansion and allowed his men to knock on the door. No matter what, the envoy of Qin cannot be allowed to see Zhao Kuo alone! If Zhao Kuo was deceived by the Qin envoy, with Zhao Kuo's command and the strength of the Qin army, would Wei still have a way to survive? Wei Shi felt a little trembling just thinking about it.
The arrival of the envoys from the two countries obviously once again broke the tranquility and warmth of Zhao Mansion.
The elders who received the invitations from the envoys of the two countries did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly took the two invitations to the bedroom of the Lord Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo was obviously a little confused when he received the invitation. Obviously, he, who was always thoughtful, just ignored the most important point - himself. Zhao Kuo underestimated his illustrious reputation among the countries.
Today's Zhao Kuo can't be summed up by the word "Ma Fu Zi". Even the name Zhao She Ma Fu Jun is not as loud as the two words "Zhao Kuo", especially outside the country of Zhao. It was no surprise that one day, Zhao She became the father of General Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo calculated the reactions of everyone, the King of Zhao, the ministers, the people, and even Lian Po, Tian Dan, Zhao Wei, Xu Li, etc. who were far away in Shangdang. Zhao Kuo anticipated them all one by one, and even more He was entrusted with a letter to put his mind at ease.
But he never expected that the domestic gourd would be pressed down by Zhao Kuo, while the foreign gourd would rise. Looking at this situation, Qin and Wei are probably just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, envoys from Qi, Chu, and Yan are probably already on their way, and even the Kingdom of Han, which only has a small area left, and even the Kingdom of Zhou, which is already declining. He will also extend an olive branch to himself.
It was impossible to leave. Zhao Kuo did not hesitate at all on this point, but the question was, would the attitudes of other countries towards him affect King Zhao's judgment? Or to put it more bluntly, if King Zhao had murderous intentions towards him...then everything would really be over.
