Chapter 761 The pit dug by Pingyang Jun for Zhao Kuo

As soon as he heard the news of the war report and contacted the eunuch Ling's expression, the monarch and minister in the hall naturally understood it - it seemed that the front line had already decided to win.

For some reason, after hearing the news, Pingyang Jun suddenly shuddered.

You should know that in the past years, this scene has been happening a lot in front of Pingyang Jun, and the result is every time... Pingyang Jun shook his head and drove this bad thought out directly from his mind.

No, no.

King Zhao was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "What are you waiting for?"

Hurry, let me show you!"

The eunuch ordered him not to neglect him and immediately presented the battle report respectfully.

King Zhao read it carefully, then his face slowly stretched out, and finally he smiled completely.

Pingyangjun's premonition became even worse.

The next moment, King Zhao raised his head, looked at Pingyang Jun and smiled, "Pingyang Jun, you are really wrong this time.

Wu Xinjun had sent Li Mu's troops to attack the hinterland of Yan from Donghu County a few days ago, forcing the King of Yan to order the Lejian on the front line to withdraw his troops.

Then Lejian was chased by Wu Xinjun on his way to withdraw. After a battle, the Yan army was defeated. Wu Xinjun captured and beheaded more than 40,000!"

Pingyang Jun: "..." Although I don't want to hear it, every time such a battle report comes, it is really news that Zhao Kuo won.

Pingyang Jun reluctantly touched the corner of his mouth, showed a smile, and said, "Congratulations to the King, congratulations to the King.

In this way, the great cause of annexation of Yan State was a good start, and victory was in sight."

Although I was very unhappy, Zhao Kuo's war was also beneficial to Pingyang Jun after all, so I have to admit this.

King Zhao laughed and said, "It's so great now. I have been hearing the news that other vassal states gathered forces on the border these days. I am always a little afraid that they will really unite to attack Da Zhao.

Now that the news of Wu Xinjun's victory has spread, they must have become honest for a while."

Pingyang Jun thought about it and couldn't help but say, "Master, this is not necessarily the case."

King Zhao frowned and said in confusion: "What do you mean by Pingyang Jun?"

Pingyang Jun said: "It's not that the old minister wanted to deliberately disappoint the king, but please think about it. What would they think if other vassal states heard about the victory of the Great Zhao?

On the one hand, they are indeed afraid of the powerful strength of Da Zhao, but on the other hand, they are naturally worried that the Yan State, which has lost its troops and lost its generals, cannot withstand the attack of Da Zhao and is destroyed.

Therefore, the old minister believes that Qi and Chu may soon continue to send people to put pressure on the king, wanting to make peace between Zhao and Yan.

The smile on King Zhao's face obviously disappeared a lot, and he said, "What should I do if that is the case?"

Pingyang Jun said: "That would be really not difficult. After all, Qin has just held the new king's ascension ceremony and is strictly investigating the main messenger behind the Qin King's poisoning. He should not have the energy to launch a war outside.

The key is to appease the State of Chu and Qi. The old ministers believe that we can make the illusion of negotiations on the surface, but in fact, they let Wu Xinjun speed up the attack. As long as they can destroy Yan before the so-called negotiation is completed, the negotiation will naturally be impossible to discuss."

When King Zhao heard this, he was overjoyed: "It's true that he is worthy of being Pingyang Jun. The ideas he came up with are indeed on the top! Very good, so let's follow your ideas."

Pingyang Jun responded with a smile, and was quite proud in his heart: "Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo, do you really think I just let you do whatever you want?"

Let me tell you, that is impossible! In this war, I really cannot compete with you in military terms, but in diplomacy, I have great potential, and the credit is not necessarily worse than you!"

Moreover, Pingyang Jun did not have the way to give Zhao Kuo eye drops in this situation! So Pingyang Jun hurriedly said: "The key now is to see if Wu Xinjun's offensive speed is smooth. Please ask the king to issue an order immediately, so that Wu Xinjun must seize the attack.

After all, the delay at the negotiating table cannot be delayed for too long. Once the two countries of Qi and Chu come to their senses, they are likely to join forces to send troops. If the Great Zhao had not annexed Yan State at that time, he would be in a situation of being attacked from both sides."

This is the eye droppings that Pingyang Jun gave Zhao Kuo. In his opinion, no matter how hard Zhao Kuo could fight, it would definitely take some trouble to face the strong city that Jidu and Yan State had been operating for so many years.

In this case, Zhao Kuo's conquest of Jidu and destroy Yan State would definitely be longer than the date of delay in negotiations, and Zhao State would inevitably break out with Qi and Chu in the south.

Pingyang Jun was not worried about the war with Qi and Chu, because Zhao Kuo only took away 100,000 troops this time, and there were still enough troops in Zhao State to mobilize.

If you can't fight, you will organize another army to confront Qi and Chu in the south. After Zhao Kuo destroys Yan State, you will let Zhao Kuo go south.

In this way, even if Zhao Kuo did destroy Yan State, Pingyang Jun would still be able to attack Zhao Kuo afterwards on the grounds that "the king did not destroy Yan State within the limit of time", and at the same time, he could also take this opportunity to weaken the trust of Zhao Kuo in King Zhao's heart.

When he thought of this, Pingyang Jun felt that his idea was really high, as high as three or four floors! After all, King Zhao was still relatively young, and he was not as far as the old fox Pingyang Jun thought. He nodded and said, "Pingyang Jun, what you said makes sense. Then I will send someone to urge Wu Xinjun to continue attacking Yan State and speed up!"

When Pingyang Jun heard this, his smile became stronger and stronger. He smiled at King Zhao and said, "The king is indeed wise!"

On the side, the eunuch listened quietly to the conversation between the king and his subjects, and his whole body was thinking.

The official position of the eunuch Ling is very subtle. He has to get along with the rulers of Zhao like King Zhao and the Queen Mother of Zhao every day. Therefore, the necessary skill for every eunuch Ling is to accurately guess the thoughts of others.

When the eunuch Ling saw Pingyang Jun's almost unconcealed smile, he thought of the relationship between Pingyang Jun and Zhao Kuo, he instinctively felt that Pingyang Jun seemed to be digging a hole for Wu Xinjun.

So, what exactly should I do?

The eunuch hesitated for a moment and made a secret decision.

Maybe... can you send a letter to Wu Xinjun quietly?

After all, it is really rare to have such a plan to form Wu Xinjun.

As he thought about it, a smile appeared on the corner of Zheng Zheling's mouth.
