Ge De was the priest of Chunping Hou. He did not have the eloquence of Sima Kong. He spoke sternly, but he told everything he asked without any omission. The more he said the situation in Zhao State, the more Xiong Jing was worried.

The Zhao army, which was 500,000, had a maximum of 400,000 left. In addition to the general Li Mu, there was a mobile force of 100,000 to 150,000 people. All the other Zhao army could do was to resist the city and defend the city. Just as Linzi, which had 300,000 people, could pull more than 200,000 people to fight to the decisive battle, the Zhao people who defended the city went side by side regardless of men, women, young and old, and the number of people participating in front-line battles exceeded one million.

However, this fierce battle not only kills soldiers, but also kills on a large scale: Once the city is broken, the entire Qin army, who is seeking for the sake of entrepreneurship, will be slaughtered all over the city, and there is no gender, age or young at all. Is this a random kill? To be honest, there is no random killing, because the Zhao people are all in battle, regardless of gender, age or young. Since they have participated in the battle, they are Zhao soldiers, and they can remember their merits by cutting off their heads. Even the Qin army's legal history cannot deny this. If they deny, what are the people who fought bloody battles with their army on the top of the city? Are the Qin army fighting ghosts?

Every time the Qin army slaughtered a city, it would slaughter a city. If one city was slaughtered, the population of Zhao State would be less than 11,000. In the end, no matter whether the city and the city resisted with all its strength, the Qin army would slaughter the city as long as the city was broken. The Zhao people no longer had the will to compromise. As long as the Qin army attacked the city, even if the last person fought, they would die in battle without being killed.

Ge De's words were dry and did not deliberately describe the blood of war, but his rough words could still make Xiong Jing feel the cruelty after the city was broken. He seemed to be able to hear the desperate shouts of Zhao people when the city was broken, and they could see them fall one by one. At this time, the Qin army rushed into the city like a tide, and blood was soaking the wide-mouthed shoes they used to wear. They had no expression on their faces. As long as they saw the corpses, regardless of gender, they would chop them up. The tied hair, all the hairs were torn apart, and the heads of all sizes were tied together, and they were tied heavily to their bodies. At this time, there was a smile on their faces...

"end!"

Ge De's words echoed in the Mingtang, Qi Guang, Jin Yi, and the historian opened his mouth as if he had forgotten to breathe. Xiong Jing's eyes suddenly became wet for some reason. Even though Ge De did not talk about the battlefield, he didn't want to listen anymore.

"King..." Ge De did not see the wetness in Xiong Jing's eyes. He was so nervous that he didn't know why the King of Chu stopped him.

"You said that Zhao State lacks corn, which can last for up to one year?" Xiong Jing didn't say anything else, just asked about corn. For the Kanto countries, food was the biggest limit for war. The final demise of Zhao State was not entirely because Zhao Ting executed Li Mu, but more because of the famine.

"Report to the king, that's right." Ge Dedao. "The people of Zhao are not afraid of the Qin people, but the people of Zhao are only afraid of having no food to eat."

"Why didn't Zhao attack Dongjun three years ago?!" Xiong Jing knew the pain of shortage of food, and he couldn't help but think of the past three years ago. If the Zhao army attacked Qin Dongjun, Qi sent troops to follow up, and Wei sent troops to follow up, the world would be different.

"This is a mistake for the vulgar country!" Ge De did not hide his mistake without sophistry and admitted it directly. "Three years ago, the widowed king died and first captured Yan territory. The prime minister was afraid of attacking Qin and Qin's attack on Zhao, so he did not dare to attack Qin's eastern county."

"Don't dare?" Xiong Jing smiled helplessly. "Do you know how many people from Zhao who did not dare to use the Zhao people in the Xiangbang, and how many people from Chu people died in the battle? Do you know that the world's situation is because of the Xiangbang that did not dare to have no chance of recovery? Do you know..."

Xiong Jing lost his voice. His greatest resentment towards Zhao State was that he did not send troops to attack Qin State's East County three years ago. After the capture of Linzi, Qi State's attitude was very clear at that time. The food and grass were already concentrated, so he was waiting for Zhao State to send troops, and then crossed Guyi to advance westward. If Zhao State sends troops, Qin State will lose Dong County, and Zhao, Qi, Wei and Chu State divide Dong County, and the Qin army in the south will not be able to attack Zhao with the current path.

"It's a mistake for a country that is a mistake for a country that is..." Ge De paused his head repeatedly, for fear that Xiong Jing would drive him out in anger.

"Don't worry, the king." Qu Guang knew that Xiong Jing was excited, so he spoke out to persuade him. "I think that the world's situation is not a battle, but a matter can change. The so-called heaven's actions are constant, and it is not for Yao, and it is not for Jie to perish. How can human power overcome heaven? But today's fate is not determined, and all countries still have opportunities to do it. Those who are afraid of it are destroyed by Zhao State by Qin. In this way, the destiny of heaven may be determined."

"King, I think that saving Zhao is the key to the affairs of the world, and attacking Wei may be..." Jin Yi also said. Because of the limitations of power and responsibility, he had never heard of attacking Wei. At this time, he thought it was not appropriate to attack Wei, and the most important thing at this time was to save Zhao.

"King..." Xiong Jing seemed not to hear the advice of his ministers, but was stunned. It was not until Chang Jiang shouted softly in his ear that he came to his senses.

"How about Li Mu?" Xiong Jing breathed and asked Li Mu.

"Reported to the great king, the Qin army has defeated Jingxing at the beginning of the year, and has already taken over Mangling, Shiyi and other cities. Now it is besieging Yi'an and Feiyi." Ge Dedao. "The general guards Lingshou, Quanyi, Jiumen and other places north of the Hutuo River and guards, and does not dare to repel their sharpness."

"Oh?" Xiong Jing smiled. Li Mu had seen it, and it looked harmless, but it was actually like a huge sword hidden in a sword sheath. If it was not unsheathed, it would be killed by being unsheathed. In the last days of Zhao State, Zhao State had defeated the Qin army, perhaps this time.

"Although the general once defeated the Hu people, he was not good at fighting in the field." Ge De was discouraged when he talked about Li Mu. Li Mu was not as good as Lian Po. Lian Po had military achievements and was very old and heavy. The ministers in the court believed that Li Mu had just defeated the Hu people once.

The pre-Qin period was not the Qin Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty was either married or paid tribute. In the end, it became custom-made and developed into annual monies. In the eyes of the pre-Qin countries, what are the Hu people or the Huns? Which country in the pre-Qin countries has ever been afraid of the Hu people? Even the small Yan State could defeat the Hu people, but it was more than a thousand miles away. Li Mu defeated the Hu people in a big way, and the doctors in the court had many doubts about him.

After Hu Ze died, the Marquis of Chunping Zhao Liang appointed Li Mu as the general of Zhao State. Although Ge De was the priest of the family, he was not confident in Li Mu. Xiong Jing did not point it out, and even the Zhao people were not optimistic about Li Mu, let alone the Qin people.

"Oh." Xiong Jing suppressed his smile and looked disappointed: "It seems that the unscrupulous Jujia was given away for nothing."

"Therefore, the prime minister dares to ask the king, can Xinping be returned to Zhao?" Ge De's question was unexpected. Zhao State actually wanted to recall Lian Po?

Xiong Jing forced the word "ke". He was not proud of his talent, but the attack on Wei made him dare not lie again. Lian Po was in charge of the northern city of Daliang, Wei and Chu were all very relieved. If he returned to Zhao, who should be stationed in Daliang?

"This matter is very important, and it needs to be discussed before deciding." Xiong Jing explained again: "The affairs of Chu State are determined by the dynasty rather than by the unscrupulous. Let me ask, any post after Xinpingjun returned to Zhao?"

"The prime minister said that if you believe that if you return to Zhao, you should be the prime minister and be the general, and stationed in the South Great Wall and Handan." Ge Dedao.

"Remember it, and all of them are reported to Yingdu." Xiong Jing quickly ordered his subordinates. Thinking of Lian Po and Li Mu leading his army to fight against Qin State, he couldn't help but be excited. If Xiang Yan could be added, the three famous generals would fight against the Qin army together, the picture would not be too beautiful.

Ge De was always talking, Xiong Jing and others were listening. After talking for a long time, Xiong Jing did not express his attitude. After everything was said, Ge De looked at Xiong Jing with a gaze, wanting to know his final attitude.

"The State of Zhao cannot bribe Qin." Xiong Jing understood his intentions, so he said, "Don't bribe Qin".

"The State of Zhao will never bribe Qin!" Ge De told him loudly. "You can make an oath."

"Good." Whether it is for the selfish interests of various countries or the public interests of various countries, Zhao State cannot bribe Qin. After Xiong Jing nodded, he said: "It is difficult to save Zhao. After three years of war with the Qin people, the corn was exhausted and the country had few grains accumulated, so it was difficult to save Zhao. Moreover, the matter of saving Zhao should be discussed by the dynasty, and no one can decide."

Xiong Jing spoke without blinking his eyes, and he didn't dare to let go of every expression or word. Xiong Jing was the King of Chu and now he occupied Linzi. Even if he couldn't force Chu and Qi to save Zhao, he could greatly encourage Chu and Qi to save Zhao. A few days ago, he threatened to attack Wei, but the King of Wei was so scared that he was nervous. As long as the pressure was a little higher, Wei would definitely save Zhao.

However, just like when Zhao attacked Dongjun, he was worried that Qin would backfire, Chu was also worried that Qin would backfire.

"The king's intention is that as long as you accumulate enough grain, you can save Zhao?" Ge De asked back.

"The accumulation of millet is related to the sea boat." Xiong Jingshi told me that this matter will be known to everyone in the world anyway. "The sea boat in Chu has already reached India in the south of Zhongzhou. India has a lot of rice, and its price is not high. Now four million stones of rice are accumulated in India and cannot be transported back..."

When Xiong Jing talked about Indian rice, Ge De finally blinked. He thought Xiong Jing was ruling, but his expression didn't look like it. "The king's intention is to transport grain from India thousands of miles away to Yingdu?"

"That's right." Xiong Jing said. "The cost of transporting thousands of miles by sea is not as good as transporting hundreds of miles by land. However, the transport of grain does not reach Yingdu, but to Zhao State. The grain from Chu State is also transported by sea rather than land. A car by land is only a hundred stone, and a boat with a boat of 30,000 stones."

"Ran, Ran..." Although there are more than 30,000 stones per boat, compared to the consumption of Zhao State, it is a drop in the bucket. Moreover, the food has to be transported thousands of miles away, so Ge ​​De was so anxious that he stuttered.

"Save Zhao, one is to send troops, and the other is to lose grain." Xiong Jing interrupted him. "Send troops to discuss it separately. The food and fodder can be lost to Zhao now, can there be a boat? The Chu army's warship is only a thousand stones, and the whole country's boats cannot transport three million stones a year. How to save Zhao?"

"The king's intention is to despise the country to build a boat?" Ge De seemed to really understand.
