Genius remembers → Net, providing you with wonderful novel readings. [Dance E-book] Dong Zhao was written by the Han Dynasty. This is something that everyone knows, but sooner or later, but this time surprised everyone. In Qin and Chu's judgment, Han State is carrying out a series of domestic political reforms, including reorganizing the army, dividing the military region, establishing various new state yamen, and issuing new currencies in the central bank. No matter which one thing, it is a big thing that hurts Qin and Chu, which is enough to make the country unstable for a while. I originally thought that the Han State would also be calm for a year or two to digest the unstable factors caused by this series of major changes, and will not provoke new troubles.

But the Han Dynasty always did things beyond everyone's expectations. During the safest period when everyone thought, the Han State had terrible annexed the East Zhao, and the powerful generals included half of the territory of Zhao into their own territory.

Qin Chu was surprised and was even more alert. This only showed one thing. The internal affairs and stability of the Han Dynasty were beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone thought that the unstable factors caused by a series of changes were nothing to the Han Dynasty. They could easily digest these unstable factors. This reflected the strong control of the Han Dynasty's court over the country and the prestige of the Han king in the hearts of the entire Han people.

You should know that the Han Dynasty is not simply a country with a single ethnic group. Now, within the territory of the Han Dynasty, not to mention the other hundreds of races, the two major races, the Donghu and the Huns, were all dominated by kings. Now it seems that they are completely obedient.

The most intense reaction was of course the Western Zhao court. After the Han State announced the annexation of Eastern Zhao and Zhao Wuji, the King of Zhao State abdicated, Xi Zhao immediately issued a stern statement, claiming that this was the Han State's naked invasion of Zhao State, and that every innocent citizen of Zhao would not sit idly by. Zhao State would be soldiers and fight to the end with the invaders. At the same time, the people in the occupied areas rose up to fight and fought to the death with the invaders.

When it comes to the voice of Western Zhao, the Han court ignored them at all and directly began to answer them with actions. A large number of troops of the First Army entered Dong Zhao and took over the important cities and military camps of Dong Zhao, while the troops of Dong Zhao began to move within the Han Dynasty. They would go to Dai County to accept the reorganization and adaptation of the First Military Region.

All the military mobilizations seem reasonable and there is no flaw at all.

Inside Hangu Pass, Lu Chao did not dare to take it lightly. After the Han Dynasty announced the annexation of Dongzhao, he immediately began to mobilize the army. When the Han Dynasty had just begun to send troops to take over the important city of Dongzhao, the army led by Lu Chao had already left Hangu Pass and drove into Jinyang.

He must be wary of the possibility of the Han State's attack while the iron is hot and the army is directly attacking Xi Zhao. Lu Chao does not think that the current Western Zhao army can withstand the Han State's full attack. No one knows the current situation of the Western Zhao army better than him. As a barrier for Qin State before Hangu Pass, Lu Chao must ensure the existence of the Western Zhao regime./

Lu Chao brought out a total of 20,000 troops from Hangu Pass. After entering Jinyang, he set up a camp in Lu Bin, who was more than 50 miles away from Jinyang City.

It is cold and the road is closed with heavy snow. It is difficult for the army to move forward and supplies are even more difficult. Although more than 100,000 Qin troops were stationed in the camps inside and outside Hangu Pass, Lu Chao could not mobilize them all. After all, once the army moves, the consumption of grain and silver is an astronomical figure. Now, the economy of the Qin people is really in difficulty. It is really not cost-effective to mobilize the army on a large scale in order to demonstrate to the Han people.

In Lu Chao's heart, this was just a demonstration. He sent troops to Jinyang, just to show the Han State that Qin would never sit idly by and extend his clutches to Western Zhao after taking down Dong Zhao. As for the issue of the ownership of Eastern Zhao, it was not within the scope of the Qin people's consideration. The existence of the East Zhao puppet regime is no different from the Han State's formal annexation. As long as the temporary existence of the Western Zhao regime is ensured to alleviate the pressure of Qin's direct large-scale confrontation with the Han State on the border, this is enough.

Of course, this time, you can also get back what you asked Xi Zhao for before. After sending the list you need to Jinyang, the Jinyang Xi Zhao court has been looking for various reasons to delay the handover. Lu Chao did not care how difficult they were, whether it was real or fake, and they had to hand over what they needed. As for how to start the topic, that was Zhao Qi's business.

His 20,000 troops were stationed in Lubin, which would also put strong pressure on Zhao Qi. If he dared not to hand over, he would have to consider the deterrence of his 20,000 troops.

Sure enough, when he arrived at Lubin and set up a camp, he had not even sat down and his butt was warm, Zhao Qi came in a hurry. Not only did he come, but his son Zhao Xilie also followed him to Lubin.

"I've seen the general." In front of Lu Chao, Zhao Qi bent down deeply, without any dignity as a chief minister of the country. "The general is worried about the affairs of Zhao State, and Zhao Qi is deeply grateful."

Lu Chao waved his hand, "Shengma Zhao is so polite, please get up, please get up."

"The weather is so cold, General Lu personally led his troops here to increase his momentum for me, Zhao Qi should express his gratitude. This time, Zhao brought some supplies to reward the army to thank the general for his support." Zhao Qi said humbly.

Lu Chao looked up and glanced at the convoy slowly approaching here in the distance. The number was too different from what he asked for. This little thing could not make up for the cost of his troops this time. He didn't say much at the moment and smiled faintly, "It's too cold outside. Shoufu Zhao, let's talk in the camp, please!"

Lu Chao's big tent is as warm as spring. Although the army is traveling far away, there are four braziers growing in this huge central army tent. The carefully selected smokeless firewood charcoal is silently spitting out light baskets of flames, simmering in the small copper stove next to the charcoal fire. The steam rises, which is a world of difference from the coolness outside the big tent.

Zhao Xilie took a deep breath, looked here, and then thought about the desolate scene in his central army tent. He remembered Li Mingjun lying on the ground, his cheeks were bulging and blowing the charcoal fire that was about to be extinguished. A fire of ignorance rose deep from the bottom of his heart, but it could not be expressed. He could only lower his head and try his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

Lu Chao's enjoyment was based on the pain of the people of Xi Zhao and the starvation of the entire Xi Zhao army. Judging from his attitude just now, he seemed to be disgusting that his father brought too little things. You must know that even these things were pieced together by Xi Zhao Dong.

"Please sit down. Zhao Junior Zhao, General Zhao." Lu Chao asked the two to sit down with a smile. "I have heard that Zhao Junior Zhao's tea ceremony is profound, but unfortunately Lu is from a poor family. There is no research on this. Today, it is rare that Zhao Junior Zhao came to my camp. He was idle and idle. Let's talk and appreciate how Zhao Junior Zhao's tea ceremony was?"

When Zhao Xilie was furious when he heard Lu Chao's rude request, he was furious. Do you think my father is an artist in the teahouse and the restaurant? He actually asked him to make tea for you personally? The anger in his heart could no longer bear it, and his face couldn't help but look very ugly.

Lu Chao glanced at the other party coldly, "What's wrong with General Zhao? His face looks so ugly?"

Before Zhao Xilie had time to answer, Zhao Qi rushed to say: "The child was worried about the current situation, worried day and night, and had never had a good rest. Therefore, his face was a little ugly. Please don't blame him, General."

"This is how. General Zhao is young, and I'm afraid he can't see the current situation clearly. Don't worry, the Han people are unable to launch a large-scale attack now. General Zhao will just put his heart in his stomach." Lu Chao chuckled.

Zhao Xilie said in a muffled voice: "Since the general thinks so, why do you still have to lead troops out of Hangu Pass? It's cold and tens of thousands of troops are facing the wind and snow. Could it be that the general wants to take this opportunity to train troops?"

Listening to Zhao Xilie pushing himself back in one go, Lu Chao laughed. "Attitude, this is an attitude. We must show our attitude to the Han people, and it is also a warning. If they are too greedy, then a war will break out. That's all. As for what you said about training the army while the wind and snow, it's not bad. Such a forced army under such weather. The ability of our army is a great test, and I am very satisfied with the results. The Qin army is still the strongest army in the world. I believe that the two of you who walked into my camp have already seen the morale of our army."

"That's it, that's it!" Zhao Qi quickly inserted into it to ease the atmosphere: "The Great Qin Hu Ben has always been the strongest military force in the world. With the Great Qin as the support of Zhao, the Han Dynasty will surely retreat."

"Even if I am a tiger in the world, I still have to pay money. Shoufu Zhao, I have never received the supplies listed on the list I gave you last time. Daqin spared no effort for you, whether it was sending troops or other troops, and he would do his best to think about Zhao. But Lord Zhao seems to have not been active in our request."

"It's not that I'm not active, I'm really helpless, but Zhao is still trying his best to raise the money."

"The Chinese New Year is coming. If I can't get these supplies during the time, my soldiers will inevitably be disappointed." Lu Chao looked at Zhao Qi with a smile.

Zhao Qi gritted his teeth, "General, don't worry, before the New Year, Zhao will definitely send all the supplies to the general's camp."

"It's so good, so good, this time I don't have to send it to Hangu Pass. I'm at Lu Bin. At that time, Lord Zhao was sent here, so I saved Lord Zhao from running around again." Lu Chao said.

"Don't worry, General, come, General, try Zhao's skills." Zhao Qi held a cup of brewed tea in both hands and handed it to Lu Chao.

Lu Chao took the tea served by Zhao Qi, took a sip, and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, good tea, compared to my usual skills, it is simply not above the same level."

"The general is busy with everything, and the tea ceremony is just a trick. The general is just unwilling to waste time on it. If he wants to do it, the general will definitely be able to do it to the extreme." Zhao Qi's attitude has almost become flattering.

"That's right, if I want to do something, I will definitely do it to the best." Lu Chao nodded with satisfaction, held the teacup and tasted it carefully.

Zhao Qi handed a cup of tea on his hand to his son Zhao Xilie, and at the same time, he passed it to him a stern look, because the expression on Zhao Xilie's face was really hard to hide.

Zhao Xilie lowered his head and slowly drank tea one by one. In the silent voice, he suddenly raised his head: "General, actually I have an idea in my heart. I wonder if the general wants to listen?"

"Oh, what do General Zhao thinks? Lu listened carefully." Lu Chao nodded.

"What General Lu said before, the general sent troops was nothing more than a demonstration to the Han people. Zhao also wanted to carry out a large-scale military exercise in Jinyang County. On the one hand, as the general said, check the army's preparations and morale. On the other hand, it was also to show the people of the Great Zhao people the courage of our army and the determination to recover lost land. On the third hand, it was to awaken the people's sense of resistance and inspire people. On the fourth hand, it was also to show the Han people that we have made all preparations. As long as they dare to invade, we will give them a head-on attack. What do the general think?"

Listening to Zhao Xilie's talk, Zhao Qi was stunned, because Zhao Xilie had no communication with him in advance. When did he get money and food for such a large-scale exercise? What's more, Lu Chao is now forcing supplies to force them so tightly.

"General Zhao's proposal is very good, but this is Zhao's internal affairs, so I will not interfere. Just take the initiative."

"We will ask General Lu to come and provide guidance at that time!" Zhao Xilie said with a smile. (To be continued.)
