Chapter 589 The situation in Handan

Although he wanted to invite Meng Ao, if the other party didn't come, Jiang Xi would have no choice.

However, it was precisely because Meng Ao did not come that Jiang Xi felt that Meng Ao might have other plans. If he had no ghost in his heart, how could he not dare to meet Jiang Xi?

But it doesn't matter. If you live in a chaotic world, if you have no plans at all, you will only care about everything, and you will probably not be far from death.

What Jiang Xi valued now is King Zhao's military expansion order. Without this order, Jiang Xi would have been too passive in many things.

...

Although Yanmen is harmonious, the battlefield between Wang Jian and Li Mu is a small battle between three days and five days, and the corpse is damaged all over the mountains.

This is the main battlefield between Qin and Zhao countries, and neither Wang Jian nor Li Mu will give in.

The battle in Yanmen can be ignored, but if Wang Jian does not attack Li Mu, how can he create pressure on Zhao State?

Although Li Mu's military literacy is stronger than Wang Jian, Qin is now united, while Zhao is not willing to fight and has a low morale.

Li Mu is also a clever woman who can’t cook without rice.

It is extremely difficult to block Wang Jian with the existing troops in Li Mu. It is simply a fantasy to defeat Wang Jian.

Li Mu can be blocked on the battlefield, but it does not mean that Zhao can be carefree.

The biggest disadvantage of Zhao State lies in logistics.

The country of Zhao State suffered a severe drought last year, and there was no harvest of 10,000 mu of fertile land, and refugees starved to death and wilderness everywhere.

Supporting Li Mu and Wang Jian’s battle would require countless food and grass to consume, and Handan could no longer support it.

Li Mu could only feel the pressure from foreign enemies, but what Handan was under was not only the pressure from Qin, but also the pressure from the domestic ones.

If this battle continues, the State of Zhao will collapse in less than a few months.

This is a fact that anyone with a discerning eye can see.

That's why Qin State was so stalemate with Li Mu on the border.

If Zhao continues to fight in this battle, it will surely perish. If it does not fight, it will also be perished.

Although Li Mu had the ability to hold Wang Jian back, if there was no food and grass, how would Li Mu resist Qin?

In fact, Li Mu has begun to reduce the cost in the army. If Li Mu had not had a high prestige, the soldiers would have already mutinized at this moment.

This is the situation facing Zhao State now.

Internal and external troubles.

Zhao State, Handan.

Guo Kai walked out of the Zhao Palace, looked back at the palace city behind him, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In a short while, the palace will be replaced by another owner.

When Zhao State was destroyed, Guo Kai would not gloat or cry. He thought all this had nothing to do with him.

At most, it is just a change of master or a country to become an official.

Guo Kai is a villain who seeks his own self-discipline. The only thing they have is themselves, and they are well aware of the way of self-protection.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with self-conspiracy. How many people in this world are self-conspiracy?

Even Jiang Xiong is the same.

It’s just that everyone’s planning methods are different, and the things they plan are different.

When someone came towards him, Guo Kai sneered and bowed, "The official has met Mr. Jia. Why? Is the young master going to enter the palace?"

Zhao Jia's face looked a little ugly. Guo Kai had just come out of the palace, so he must have been slandering like a prostitute. He entered the palace at this moment. Not to mention that things could not be done, he might be scolded by the prostitute.

Today, Zhao Wangqian is Zhao Jia's younger brother. With Zhao Jia's identity, he should have been appointed as the king.

But he is still just a young master. If it weren't for some anti-Qin generals in Zhao, he would not even have the right to speak in the court.

"Mr. Guo!"

Zhao Jia bowed his hand and said lightly: "I wonder if Lord Guo has entered the palace at this moment, but has he offered a strategy to the Empress Dowager to resist Qin?"

Guo Kai sneered: "Now that I, the people of Zhao, live in poverty, and the people are mourning everywhere, and they change their sons to eat. However, the young master insists on resisting Qin despite the sufferings of the people. Could it be that the young master is not afraid that these thousands of starving souls will come to you in the middle of the night?"

Zhao Jia was so scared that she trembled all over and said with her neck in her hands, "Mr. Guo, are you still my Zhao State's minister?"

"Of course I am!"

Guo Kai sneered: "It is precisely because I am a minister of Zhao that I consider the people of Zhao. But the young master only cares about his own selfishness and ignores all the people of the world. Let me ask you, who are loyal ministers and who are treacherous ministers between you and me?"

No matter how Guo Kai is, his words are fine.

When Zhao State continued to resist stubbornly, the first thing that suffered was the people of Zhao State.

From the standpoint of the people of Zhao, this battle should not be fought.

But if Zhao is destroyed from the standpoint of Zhao, then are these people still the people of Zhao?

Especially for someone like Zhao Jia, who came from the royal family, even if he had been a proton in South Korea for several years, he still would not have the word "people".

Sometimes war is actually very contradictory.

If the people do not fight, although they can continue to live a stable and prosperous life, the state power will be replaced.

To fight, not only will thousands of soldiers be killed in battle, but the country will also increase taxes, which will make the people live in poverty.

When the world is in chaos, the most common people are not the soldiers, but the people.

If you encounter a vicious general who passes by a town in an enemy country, you will starve a large number of people to death when you pass by a town in an enemy country.

Zhao Jia blushed and argued: "The so-called country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. If the Zhao country is destroyed, how can those people have their own families?"

Guo Kai approached Zhao Jia and sneered in a low voice: "The people naturally have homes. I think you should be the ones who really don't have homes?"

Zhao Jia said angrily: "You——"

Guo Kai sneered: "Young Master is going to enter the palace? Please!"

After saying that, Guo Kai ignored Zhao Jiaqing's face and laughed and got on the carriage and went home.

Zhao Jia stood in front of the palace gate and was speechless for a long time.

He had just received a message from Jiang Yu, hoping that he could continue to make suggestions and asked the prostitute to allow Jiang Yu's military expansion order.

Zhao Jia also knew in his heart that it was already the limit that Jiang Yu could stalemate with the Yanmen with an army of 80,000 and Meng Ao's 200,000.

If the army was not expanded, it would be difficult for Jiang Yu to capture Yanmen and go south to support Li Mu.

But as Guo Kai said, Zhao State is almost out of food.

If the grain tax continues to be increased, the people of Zhao may all rise up.

Without food, how to expand the army?

Although Jiang Yu's Dai County has food, there is no grain in Zhao's country, Jiang Yu only cares about accepting refugees in Dai County, completely ignoring the life and death of Handan.

The king of Zhao and his son are now very dissatisfied with Jiang Xi.

If it weren't for the estimation of Jiang Yu's power, the prostitution might have taken back Jiang Yu's military power.

Under such circumstances, how could Jiang Xi continue to expand his army after prostitution?

Jiang Yu wrote several letters, but they were rejected by prostitutes. In the end, the prostitutes didn't even look at them.

After prostitution, I don’t understand military affairs or country.

Her understanding of the situation in the world was told by her close friends.
