King Zangtu of Yan ordered all males over 16 years old and under 60 years old in the country to gather together. The entire Youyan land suddenly had clouds of battles, and the cars and horses roared, and a solemn and murderous aura.

Since ancient times, Yanzhao has been many generous and tragic people. Once the whole country mobilizes, it will be very powerful.

However, Yan Tu was not impenetrable by his anger. He knew that there was a considerable gap in national strength and military strength between Yan and Zhao. With the power of Yan alone, he would definitely not defeat Zhao, and it would not be possible to avenge the son-killing revenge. Therefore, Yan had to lobby for the other two member states of the Alliance Alliance, Chu and Bei Diao Kingdom, to attack Zhao together.

Three days later, the flying cavalry of Yan State rushed to Beidiao City on a starry night.

Bei Diaocheng is the newly built capital after the founding of the Northern Diao Kingdom. It is located in the middle of the Hetao River in Liaohe, which is near the Liaoyuan in later generations. The land is fertile and the water and grass are lush. It was originally a territory of Goguryeo, but since its founding, the strength of the Northern Diao Kingdom has increased sharply. With the full support of the Chu army, it has formed an absolute military advantage for the Donghu tribes such as Goguryeo.

Up to now, all the Goguryeo men who were above the wheel of the carriage were slaughtered, and all the women and children of Goguryeo became slaves to the northern mink people. The remaining hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo people have fled to the wild land on the peninsula and snatched food from the barbarians who ate raw meat and drank blood there.

As soon as the Yan State's flying newspaper arrived in Bei Diaocheng, Bei Diao Wang Zhao fell off his tail and urgently summoned the general Meng Shuo to discuss the strategy.

Because the Northern Diao Kingdom is located in Hetao, Liaohe, and faces threats from nomadic peoples around it such as the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei, Sushen, Goguryeo, so there is no infantry. There is only one Northern Diao Light Cavalry. Of course, this light cavalry cannot be controlled by Northern Diao Wang Zhaoshe, but is controlled by the Northern Diao General Meng Feng.

"General, the King of Yan is here to ask for help. Should we send troops or not?" Facing Meng Shu, the King of Northern Diao, Zhaoshe, turned his tail and said in a completely negotiating tone. He could not take the airs of the king at all. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he didn't dare, because the Northern Diao cavalry only heard Meng Shu. As long as Meng Shu gave the order, he, the king, would finish his game immediately.

"Oh, the King of Yan is here to ask for help?" Meng Feng's heart moved slightly when he heard this. He was always concerned about the situation in the Central Plains. The movements of the Chu court and the situation in Qi were also spread to Liaodong through the Tangbao. Meng Feng knew that the king had been secretly planning to unify the world.

But Meng Feng didn't expect that the first one to take action was King Yan.

Take the Feixin from the King of Yan from the Northern Diao King. Meng Feng hurriedly sat up and bowed, bowed and said, "King, since I am the general of the Northern Diao Kingdom, of course I have to obey your wishes. If you say you join forces with Yan to attack Zhao, then I will raise an army. If you don't want to, then I will not raise an army."

The relationship between the King Zhao She and King of Yan Zangtu has always been very good. As early as the eighteenth anti-Qin army rebelled, Zhao She and the King of Qin had sent a cavalry to condemn a cavalry to fight with Zangyan. Although the troops were not large, it was only half of the strong men that the Northern Diao tribe could dispatch at that time. The reason why Meng Shi was so generous to give the decision to Zhao She was that he believed that he would definitely choose to send troops.

Sure enough, Zhaoshe was very happy after hearing this, and immediately slapped the table and shouted: "I have always had a close relationship with the King of Yan. The prince of Yan Zangyan was even more of a grown-up. Now Zangyan died at the hands of the Zhao army assassin. How can I sit still? General, please go back and summon the army and send troops to defeat the Rising."

"Here!" Meng Fengqi replied with a loud bang and took the order.

Of course, it was impossible for such a big disturbance from Yan State to hide from Zhao State's detailed works, and the news was quickly passed back to Handan.

Although King Zhang Ao of Zhao was getting older and even the crown prince was over teenage, he was still as cowardly as ever. Hearing that King Zangtu of Yan had issued an edict to gather all the strong men in the country, he was panicked. He didn't care that it was already midnight, and urgently ordered the eunuch to summon the general Bai Yan and the prime minister Zhang Jing went to the palace to discuss countermeasures.

"General, Prime Minister, what should I do?" Zhang Ao looked panicked.

Zhang Jing sighed and said, "Master, this is also expected. Yan Tu is a son like Zangyan, and the remaining sons are either fools or fools, and they cannot inherit his great cause at all. Now they are asked General Bai Yan to kill him in Anqiu. How can he give up?"

"Prime Minister, there is no need to say such strange things now, right?" Bai Xuan frowned and was displeased.

Bai Xuan was really surprised by his nephew Bai Yan's nephew, who would set up an ambush in Anqiu, killing Prince Yan Zangyan and seriously injuring Prince Chu Xiang Zheng. However, this nephew was still a little bit tender after all. Since there was a definite source of information, why did he only bring 800 people there? In the end, not only did he fail to capture Zangyan alive, Xiang Zheng also took all his life.

What is particularly regrettable is that it has caused a disaster to Zhao State.

Zhang Jing sneered in his heart, but he stopped saying anything. He was really afraid of vain.

Bai Xuan said to Zhang Ao again: "King, the Yan army is not worth mentioning. Even if all the strong men over 16 years old and under 60 years old in the country were only more than 200,000. Moreover, such mobs have no combat power, so there is no need to wait for the Yan army to come to attack. I will then start a large army to attack Yan State and destroy Yan State first!"

The Yan army wanted to mobilize troops and make great efforts, so they naturally could not gather in a short period of time.

In the past year, Bai Xuan vigorously rectified his military equipment and stepped up training for new soldiers. The atmosphere of the Zhao army has long been different. Not only did the more soldiers from various counties become more capable of fighting, but the imperial guards stationed in Handan were trained by Bai Xuan to become an elite force. Of course, this is just an elite army on paper, and has not been tested in actual combat.

Now that Yan State has made great wars, it just gives Bai Xuan the opportunity to train troops. I believe that after this battle, the Zhao army can transform into a truly elite. From then on, even when facing the Chu army in the south, the Zhao army can still have the power to fight.

"What? General, you want to attack Yan?" Zhang Ao said in shock, "What if the Chu army takes advantage of the situation and attack, what should we do?"

Bai Xuan said: "Lianheng's alliance is watching over and helping each other, and helping each other. If the Chu army takes advantage of the situation and attacks Zhao State, you only need to guard Handan, Han army, and Korean army will naturally come to rescue."

Zhang Jing said: "If it were the Han army, what if the Han army wouldn't come?"

"This is impossible." Bai Xuan said decisively, "The truth about the loss of lips and teeth is cold, and the king of Han cannot not know. If Zhao was destroyed by Chu, how could Han and Han be spared?"

Zhang Jing smiled and said, "I think it's not wise to put hope on others. It's better to send troops to defend the counties and resist step by step. Then the Yan army might have been exhausted before the attack on Handan and could not continue. In this way, wouldn't it be better than the general who led his troops to attack the distance, but put an empty city of Handan under the Chu army's army's army?"

"Handan is empty?" Bai Xuan shook his head and said disapprovingly, "This statement from the Prime Minister is very wrong. Even if the Han army is not allowed to arrive, our great Zhao army will have 500,000 strong men. The king only needs an imperial edict to fight the whole country. If the Chu army really comes to attack, even if the Zhao State is finally destroyed, it will be greatly damaged."

"The whole country's bloody battle?!" Zhang Ao's face turned pale. After hearing these four words, he naturally thought of the tragic scene of corpses lying thousands of miles away and blood flowing. Imagining the extreme tragic scene, Zhang Ao felt his heart and courage tremble, and his legs, who were kneeling on the mat, trembled involuntarily.

"Yes, the whole country will fight bloody battles until death!" Bai Xuan stood up pressing his sword and said solemnly, "The great Zhao is a generous and tragic man. The king only has one edict. All men across the country can fight with him. They would rather die than surrender!"

Luoyang, royal palace.

"King, why should we take the lead this time, right?" Gao Chu was ready to rub his hands. Before he could enter the study, his voice had already reached Xiangzhuang, Bi Shu and Bailixian's ears.

Xiang Zhuang and Bi Shu, Baili Xian looked at each other and laughed.

Gao Chu was confused by laughing and said in a daze: "Master, why are you laughing at?"

Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said, "The military advisor just said that you have not fought a big battle in recent years. You must have been so suffocated. This time I will definitely come to ask for a fight. As expected, the military advisor guessed it, haha."

Gao Chu scratched his head awkwardly, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous, saying, "Master, can you do it?"

"Success, of course!" Xiang Zhuang smiled and pointed at Gao Chu, saying, "You have said this to this point. If I am not sure, I will be blamed for death by you behind my back?"

"That's great!" Gao Chu fisted hard, looking extremely excited.

Xiang Zhuang straightened his face and said, "But at first, the battle against Zhao is not easy to fight. I will talk about the ugly words first. If you can't fight against Zhao, I will not have any old feelings."

Bailixian continued: "There are so generous and tragic people in Zhao who dare to fight fiercely. What we are most worried about is that the King of Zhao issued an edict to fight the whole country. If this is the case, even if we can finally destroy our army in Zhao, we will definitely pay a heavy price."

"Our army's war damage is second." Bi Shu waved his hand and said, "The key is that after the bloody battle of the whole country, Zhao will become a sea of ​​corpses and blood. Not only will the strong men die, but women and children will also die in large numbers. What the Great Chu needs is not a sea of ​​corpses and blood, but Hebei, which is densely populated and rich in resources!"

Xiang Zhuang said: "Therefore, the key to the battle against Zhao is not to fight, but to divide and disintegrate!"

Gao Chu said with a bitter face and extremely resentful voice: "Okay, then I'll just not join in the fun."

Xiang Zhuang smiled when he heard this. Gao Chu's reaction was already as expected. He said immediately: "Once the battle against Zhao begins, Bai Mo will definitely not sit idly by. At that time, the Han army will definitely invade Shuzhong in the south and leave Tongguan in the east. Although Pojun is also a long-standing general on the battlefield who has experienced many battles, he still lacks some courage. At first, you should go to Hangu."

"Here." Gao Chu replied with a loud bang, then stood up and left.

When Gao Chu left, Xiang Zhuang said to Bishu and Bailixian and the others: "There is a general in Shu to take charge. Even if Bai Mo throws all the troops from Guanzhong invade, I can be worry-free. But is it really feasible to be led by the prince in the battle to attack Zhao?"

Bishu, Bailixian looked at each other, and at the same time knelt down from the table and bowed, saying, "I think it's feasible." (To be continued)
