Chapter 737 The goal is to destroy the Yan Kingdom
Since the queen's candidate has been decided, the next step is to prepare for the wedding in a intensive manner. A month later, King Zhao's wedding was held lively.
As the strongest combination country today, the Zhao Kingdom's wedding was naturally a very sensational event for the whole world. The envoys of the princes came to celebrate the King of Zhao and gave valuable gifts.
The young and proud King Zhao was naturally satisfied with this.
After the wedding of King Zhao ended, spring was about to come to an end. At this time, King Zhao finally turned his attention from the country to abroad.
So King Zhao immediately summoned the ministers of Pingyang, Zhao Kuo, Zhou Shaofen and others to discuss the next war preparations.
King Zhao sat at the top and said to the ministers in front of him: "This time, my request for the war is very simple, that is, only victory is allowed but not failure!"
For King Zhao, he had just become the ruler of Zhao, so he would never allow failure. In this way, it would greatly affect King Zhao's prestige and might even endanger King Zhao's rule.
On the other hand, a victory can not only successfully consolidate the rule of King Zhao, but also let everyone in the world know how powerful Zhao is, thus laying the foundation for the first step for unifying the other six countries in the world in the future.
The other people naturally had no objection to the words of King Zhao.
Although King Zhao has been in power for less than a year, the young man's unique and distinctive personality is still clearly controlled by all his ministers.
Everyone knows in their hearts that King Zhao is a person who is very impatient in everything and does not allow failure. Once he feels that the matter is not going smoothly, King Zhao will immediately get furious and even take human life directly.
Simply put, this is a normal manifestation of a rebellious boy, but the problem is that the boy holds the right to easily control the life and death of many people, which has led to the amplification of some of the problems of King Zhao's originally just ordinary boys, and may even cause worse things.
This is what people often say that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
Since it involves military issues, Pingyang Jun is still quite sensible and did not choose the first one to speak.
In the past, so many experiences in court discussions have told Pingyang Jun that if the goal he chose is inconsistent with Zhao Kuo's goals and triggers a fight of verbalism, then Pingyang Jun's own winning rate is actually not high.
Pingyang Jun thought that his eloquence was far inferior to Lin Xiangru, but even Lin Xiangru could not go against Zhao Kuo in this regard, so Pingyang Jun naturally could not be so stupid as to take the initiative to stand up as Zhao Kuo's live target.
Zhao Kuo waited for a moment, and when he saw that Pingyang Jun did not stand up, he couldn't help but look at Pingyang Jun in surprise, then stood up and said, "Master, I think it's time to send troops to destroy Yan State!"
After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, the other important officials of Zhao State in the hall were immediately excited.
King Zhao also showed a very excited expression on his face, and said to Zhao Kuo: "Wu Xinjun, is there really hope that he can directly destroy Yan State?"
The situation of the seven heroes in the Warring States Period has lasted for more than 200 years since the storyboard of the three families of Han, Zhao and Wei.
During these 200 years, countries have attacked each other, and each has its own time to decline and prosperity. Several countries even faced the crisis of national destruction, but in the end they all survived.
If Zhao State could destroy Yan State, it would definitely have created an extremely rare historical record.
For King Zhao, if the first war after taking office would directly destroy one of the other six countries, it would definitely be a gift package for taking office that surprised King Zhao. It is no wonder that King Zhao was so excited and excited.
Zhao Kuo smiled and said to King Zhao: "Please rest assured, the reason why Yan State was not able to be destroyed before was not because our Da Zhao did not have the strength, but because there were always some people in the Da Zhao court that were hindering their ministers.
Now that these people have been driven out of the court by the king, I no longer have any worries, so I will naturally be able to do my best to establish achievements for the king. It is certainly no problem to destroy a small northern country like Yan State."
Zhao Kuo's words were also full of confidence.
From time travel to the present, I have calculated that almost 10 years have passed.
In these 10 years, Zhao Kuo has won countless victories, leading Zhao State step by step from the collapse situation faced in the Battle of Changping to now becoming the most powerful country among the seven heroes of the Warring States Period with the widest territory, the largest population, the strongest strength and the most prosperous army.
But even so, Zhao Kuo was not very satisfied with it.
Because in Zhao Kuo's view, only by destroying the other six countries as soon as possible and establishing a truly unified dynasty in China can the Chinese people have a real good life.
Not only that, Zhao Kuo also hopes to expand outward immediately after unifying China, and to firmly control the entire earth in the hands of the Chinese before the Western world, so as to avoid the shameful history of being bullied by Western powers in later generations.
Everyone's lifespan is limited, so Zhao Kuo naturally does not want to waste his life in these meaningless struggles and waiting.
Although Pingyang Jun and Zhao Kuo still have some conflicts, Pingyang Jun himself has just come to power, and he also needs a success to prove that Pingyang Jun, the prime minister of Zhao State, is not an incompetent person. Therefore, in this war, Pingyang Jun and Zhao Kuo have natural common interests.
In addition, the military power of the entire Zhao State is actually controlled by Zhao Kuo, so Zhao Kuo can fully demonstrate his strength and officially start the destruction of Yan State.
After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, King Zhao's mood suddenly became better. He couldn't help but smile and said, "It's very good, very good. Do you have any other opinions?"
Several other important officials of Zhao State looked at each other without saying a word.
Everyone knows very well about military affairs. If Zhao Guokuo dares to say that he is second, then no one dares to say that he is first.
What's more, everyone present actually belonged to the Victory Group after the entire coup. There may be many contradictions within the Victory Group, but at this moment, everyone's idea of using a victory to consolidate their power has absolutely not changed.
From this point of view, from King Zhao to the ministers of Zhao, this time, they formed an unprecedented unity.
