The first purpose of Lord Pingyang's arrival was naturally to ask Zhao Kuo to lead Dai Di's army to rescue Handan, but in fact, at a deeper level, it can even be said to be a more important task, but it was to disrupt as much as possible Zhao Kuo's mission to destroy Hu's plan.
Only by disrupting Zhao Kuo's plan to destroy Hu can Zhao Kuo be tied to Dai for a longer period of time, and Zhao Kuo, who has already threatened the king's authority, be allowed to leave the political center, so that the king can slowly eliminate Zhao Kuo's influence. The influence of North Korea and China.
Although King Zhao did not say this explicitly, it was obvious that Pingyang Jun, as the king's confidant, had already understood the king's thoughts from King Zhao's words.
The current situation is that Zhao Kuo led 20 to 30,000 people out of the city, obviously heading for the barbarians on the grassland.
Although the Hu army on the grassland is said to number hundreds of thousands, logically speaking, it should not be defeated by Zhao Kuo's mere 20 to 30 thousand people.
But that was Zhao Kuo after all! That was someone who could force hundreds of thousands of Qin troops and Bai Qi to death!
God knows what kind of power these mere 20,000 to 30,000 people can exert in his hands. If Zhao Kuo is really allowed to defeat Beihu in one battle, then if Zhao Kuo is allowed to return to Handan to aid, wouldn't that be adding to the trouble for the king?
Find Zhao Kuo and convey the king's order. Mr. Pingyang understands that there must be no delay! Immediately no longer hesitating, Pingyang Jun slowly took out a brocade box from his arms with a cold face, and then opened the brocade box in front of Chen Xun and Sun Gu, took out the tiger talisman inside, and said calmly: "Zhao Jun The tiger talisman is here." Then he looked at the two of them and continued: "You two, please work together to investigate and examine it." The two people who heard this had expressions of disbelief, that was the tiger talisman!
Did King Zhao just give the tiger talisman that could command the three armies to Jun Pingyang, a civil servant who had never even seen a real battlefield?
Where is this going to put us, the generals who have been born and died for the Zhao State? General Sun Gu on the side was really doubting his own ears. He thought that the king's chaos when he was in the barrier camp was already at its limit, but he didn't expect that what the king did today would be even more outrageous and even child's play!
Putting the life and death of tens of thousands of troops in the hands of a man who doesn't understand war at all, when the barbarian army is overwhelming the country, it is already unwise for the enemy to withdraw its generals, so it is better to replace the famous generals who are famous all over the world. Isn't it child's play to marry someone who doesn't know anything about military affairs?
Even General Chen Xun, who wanted to calm down the matter, was shocked by Pingyang Jun's words, and his shock turned into anger in an instant!
The Battle of Changping has just ended, and the danger of national subjugation has just passed. Is the king already eager to use culture to control military force, and to use culture to suppress military force?
Obviously, Chen Xun has seen more things than Sun Gu, so his thoughts are naturally more profound.
But without exception, Chen Xun was determined not to accept the idea of replacing the general with Pingyang Jun. General Chen Xun's peaceful expression just now turned livid in an instant. He silently took out the tiger talisman from his arms, gritted his teeth and checked half of the tiger talisman in Lord Pingyang's hand.
There was a click, the sound of the two halves of the tiger talisman joining together tightly. There were two clicks, which was the sound of two loyal and patriotic hearts shattering into pieces.
The two of them stared blankly at the tiger talisman in their hands, their hearts in a state of turmoil, unable to calm down for a long time, and even forgetting the passage of time.
"Can we talk now?" Seeing that the two were silent, Pingyang Jun immediately took back his half of the tiger charm, put it back into the brocade box, and asked the two in front of him calmly.
Apparently Pingyang Jun has not realized that it is easy to take out his Tiger Talisman, and no one dares to stop him from taking it back, but the mark it left on the hearts of the generals is irreversible.
If Zhao Kuo were here, he would really give Lord Pingyang a hard pat and say again: Good brother! Lord Pingyang's move was obviously a bit reckless. Regardless of whether he could find Zhao Kuo or not, he had already pushed the Daidi Army and even the entire military system of the Zhao State to the opposite side of King Zhao.
Of course, without the ambitious Zhao Kuo, a push would be just a push. But with Zhao Kuo, a hidden careerist, this push may be the difference between life and death.
Looking at the smug Pingyang Lord, Chen Xun and Sun Gu both felt irritated and disgusted. Is such a successful villain worthy of being compared with a general?
With a "click" sound, the lid of the brocade box was immediately closed, and the two people present also received the fierce gaze of Lord Pingyang.
Although the two of them really disliked this Pingyang Lord, they had no choice but to bow their heads even if they didn't want to.
However, the whereabouts of the general... The two looked at each other with helplessness and confusion in their eyes.
Having said that, not only was he sorry for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians who lived here, but he was also betrayed by the general; but not to mention, Hu Fu was in front, and as a general of Zhao State, he had no reason to disobey the arrangement.
For a moment, the two of them didn't know what to do. Seeing the expression on Lord Pingyang's face getting worse and worse, the two of them were suffering more and more.
Sun Gu took a deep breath, and it was obvious that he had made a decision - for the sake of the general, he had no choice but to do this!
Just when Sun Gu was determined to disobey the king's order on his own, Chen Xun on the side quietly took another half step forward and separated Sun Gu from Pingyang Jun again.
Sun Gu suddenly became anxious. Calculating the time, the general might be in the middle of a fierce battle. If the general's position was exposed at this time, the consequences would be disastrous.
Even if the position is not exposed, once Pingyang Jun finds the general, the strategy of taking the initiative to defeat them will be completely bankrupt.
This is something Sun Gu cannot accept in any case. Immediately, Sun Gu wanted to stop him, but General Chen Xun beat him to it.
"Pingyang Junrong." Chen Xun clasped his hands and bowed. A faint word, but it made Pingyang Lord Zhao Bao excited!
"General Chen, please speak!" The excited Pingyang Jun immediately helped Chen Xun up and said with a smile. At the same time, Pingyang Jun did not forget to glance at the anxious Sun Gu, as if to say: If you don't say it, someone will naturally say it.
It was so hard to watch that Sun Gu's back molars were almost broken. It's a pity that Chen Xun has already spoken, so he can't be stabbed to death on the spot with a sharp sword!
Even if Sun Gu wanted to do this, there was nothing he could do. He had no choice but to store the swords when he came to the audience.
With countless annoyances, Sun Gu was even thinking about how to face the menacing barbarians in Daidi, which was short of troops and reinforcements.
However, the more he thought about it, the more desperate Sun Gu felt... and then the eyes he looked at Chen Xun and Ping Yangjun became more and more evil.
Chen Xun turned a deaf ear to this, and his low tone remained very calm: "Pingyang Junrong..."
