Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Typical case.

So what Zhao Kuo needs to do is to find a compromise point between the two and integrate them effectively.

This is what the famous Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty said when he was educating his son.

"The world of my Han family is originally mixed with the way of the overlord!"

The so-called hegemony refers to Legalism, and the so-called kingly way refers to Confucianism. Only by combining these two can the true heritage of China's prosperous age lie.

In any case, under Zhao Kuo's exhaustive efforts to inform, the entire Zhao country did merge at a very rapid speed.

Of course, it will take a very long or even several years to completely integrate these conquered lands and make everyone willingly consider themselves Chinese.

Things that can only be done in a generation's time.It's just that now Zhao Kuo feels that his foundation has been laid very solidly. As long as future generations don't die, there is absolutely no problem.

Not big.

Before you know it, another year has passed, and winter has come again.

Compared with before, the winter in Zhao State this year is still very cold, but the number of people who died of freezing in Handan City has been greatly reduced.

The reason for this is that under the order of Zhao Kuo this year, the Zhao Guo government dispatched a lot of manpower and resources to rescue those civilians who were unable to survive the winter.

help.

I don't know if I don't help. After the real help was implemented, Zhao Kuo was shocked when he calculated the cost.

It's not that the cost is too high, on the contrary, in fact, the cost is not high at all.

All you need is some wood, some clothes that can keep out the cold, and enough food.

Some people are about to ask, if the cost is not high, then why did many local officials in history say that they are incapable of treating disaster victims?

This involves a systematic issue of usual preparations. To put it bluntly, if a part of the resources and funds that can be used to treat disaster victims are reserved in the finances, then

So at this time, of course there will be no problem in using it.

However, if the local officials did not have the resources and funds to treat the victims because of political achievements or corruption, then it would be a very troublesome situation.

The big problem.

In fact, many local officials in the dynasty did not have this kind of precautionary awareness to rescue the victims. Most of them embezzled funds to other places in order to change their political achievements.

better, or to make your life better.

As for Zhao Kuo, because he is here in Handan, it can be said that he is at the foot of the emperor, and Zhao Kuo has just gained power, and he has the strongest control over the entire Handan, so

It is said that no one can make any moths under Zhao Kuo's nose, and the work of rescuing the victims will naturally go very smoothly.

In order to ensure that the rescue and treatment of disaster victims at the local level is also smooth, Zhao Kuo also mobilized a large number of Nightingale's power.quietly carry out all kinds of vigilance and dark investigation

visit.

Generally speaking, because the officials under Zhao Kuo's command are all newly appointed, and many of these officials want to perform well in front of Zhao Kuo, so

It is said that in most places of Zhao State, the rescue of the victims is relatively smooth.

Only a small number of local officials have dereliction of duty due to various reasons, and these guys were taken off their official hats by Zhao Kuo as a matter of course.some serious

He was interrogated directly in prison and was finally beheaded.

If a questionnaire survey is conducted at this time, then Zhao Kuo's satisfaction with the ruling office this year is actually quite high.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that during this year, Zhao Kuo not only successfully stabilized his power, but also launched a foreign war, seizing a large amount of land and wealth from Chu State, and having a large amount of power.

The first batch of Zhao Guo soldiers successfully became the small landlord class because of this victory.

In China, Zhao Kuo also caught a large number of corrupt officials and punished them. This made the people see hope and praised Zhao Kuo's time in power.

The time when Wang was in charge was even more reassuring.

These compliments to Zhao Kuo were also passed on to Zhao Kuo's desk through Nightingale's various information channels among the people, which made Zhao Kuo smile after reading it.

In fact, Zhao Kuo is very clear about a truth, that is, as long as the people are satisfied with their lives, then the power of Zhao State is absolutely as stable as Mount Tai, without any

People can shake.

During this period of time, Yi Quwei, Zhao Guo's concubine, gave Zhao Kuo another son.It was also successful in making Zhao Kuo's current number of children break through double digits.

For Zhao Kuo now, the children live in a large group every day, and the feeling after returning home is quite good.

All in all, everything seems to be quite smooth for Zhao Kuo.

When the internal affairs have been almost resolved, Zhao Kuo thinks it is time to continue to look outside.

So Zhao Kuo no longer hesitated, and soon summoned many confidants to prepare for the next war.

Regarding this war, Zhao Kuo obviously had already prepared for it.

After calling everyone to his study, Zhao Kuo said straight to the point to the few confidants present.

"Next year we will go to war against Qin State. This time we will completely destroy Qin State. We will absolutely not give Qin State any chance to breathe."

Yes, after this year passed, Zhao Kuo finally chose to attack Qin, which once unified the world in history!

Chapter 1076 The next target is Qin

After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, several of Zhao Kuo's confidants were not surprised, anyway, they showed eager expressions on their faces.

For these confidants, they have long known Zhao Kuo's ambition to dominate the world, and have always followed Zhao Kuo to work towards this goal.

That being the case, what Zhao Kuo is doing now is just something that must be done in the unification of the world, so what is there to be surprised about?

Li Mu was the first to ask for a fight. "My lord, I am willing to be the leader of the army this time, to help my lord conquer Xianyang City and destroy the entire Qin State."

For Li Mu, he absolutely does not want to miss any war.

I joined Zhao Kuohui now.After playing, Li Mu found that he seemed to have really fallen in love with this feeling of war. He felt very boring without the time to fight.

, It can be said that every day is looking forward to the arrival of a new war.

In the past, Zhao Kuo was just one of Zhao Guo's important ministers, and it didn't mean that Zhao Kuo would be able to get Zhao Kuo's turn in every big battle. This made Li Mu quite worried.

But now that Zhao Kuo controls the entire Zhao country, Li Mu no longer has any hesitation or entanglement. Anyway, as long as there is a war, the fight will be over.

Seeing Li Mu's voluntary invitation, Zhao Kuo couldn't help feeling a little funny, but at the same time, he admired Li Mu more.

What Zhao Kuo hopes to see most is a general like Li Mu. If a soldier is not good at fighting, then he is not a qualified soldier.

Zhao Kuo smiled, and said to Li Mu: "Don't worry, of course you will come in handy this time, but before that, let me tell you about the whole operation.

battle plan. "

This time the battle plan mainly came from the staff, but it was also after Zhao Kuo's thinking that he finally decided on the final plan.

Zhao Kuo asked someone to bring the map, then took out the baton, started pointing on the map, and told the whole battle plan.

"Actually, our battle plan this time is very simple, that is, the troops will be divided into two groups. First, I will personally lead the main force to attack Xianyang City.

The Qin people should deploy heavy troops here to stop my advance.Then I will defeat them and occupy the entire city of Xianyang. "

When Zhao Kuo said these words, the whole person can be said to be quite confident and relaxed, and all Zhao Kuo's confidantes present did not have any doubts about Zhao Kuo's matter.

suspect.

Everyone believes in Zhao Kuo's combat ability very much. After all, Zhao Kuo is the most capable person in the world, isn't he?

That's all, after the first part of the battle plan, Zhao Kuo continued.

"However, if they only pass through Xianyang directly, then after occupying Xianyang, some Qin people may pass through Hanzhong and flee to the Bashu Basin.

So Li Mu, you are in charge of leading a troop from Nanyang County along the Han River upstream, attacking the Hanzhong Plain, occupying Hanzhong, and completely cutting off Qin Guanzhong.

and the connection between Bashu. "

In this era of cold weapons, Qin's terrain actually has a great defensive advantage, whether it is Guanzhong, which has been chosen for generations, or Hanzhong or Basin, which are in the basin.

Shu belongs to the kind of place where it is quite difficult for the enemy to attack.

But this kind of place may be more difficult for others to fight, but it is not so difficult for Zhao Kuoyan. After all, Zhao Kuo is the top strategic leader in the world.

division.

After Li Mu heard about this mission, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and nodded repeatedly to express that there was absolutely no problem.

For Li Mu, as long as he can fight the battle, whether he can be the main general or not is actually not too important.

What's more, this time the main general is Zhao Kuo who goes out in person, and the only person Li Mu admires in this world is Zhao Kuo, so it is even more impossible for him to have any opinions.

Zhao Kuo continued to say to Li Mu: "If you have conquered Hanzhong by then, and I have not led the army to the south, you can continue to attack Bashu in the south and try to take Bashu back."

Make a breakthrough, so that my main force can save a lot of energy when the time comes.Can it be done? "

Without hesitation, Li Mu immediately answered Zhao Kuo loudly: "Please don't worry, my lord, I will do my best and never let my lord down."

Zhao Kuo looked at Li Mu who was eager to try, and felt very relieved in his heart.

Only with this kind of momentum can one truly become a famous general in history books.

After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, Xu Li said, "If the lord leaves Handan, then who will be responsible for the affairs of Handan?"

As for Zhao Kuo's need to steam the state of Qin, the academic background itself is actually not against it. After all, everyone knows that it may be risky for other monarchs to go to the royal conquest, but Zhao Kuo

Including fighting is the real stability, and it is the real 100% winning choice.

Regarding this matter, Zhao Kuo obviously had already thought about it a long time ago, and said: "It is still according to the previous arrangement. If something really happens, then you can discuss it later."

It can be dealt with later, but some important matters still need to be sent to the west first, so that I can make the decision myself.

By the way, in order to prevent the Chu people from doing anything after I leave, this time, I also decided to first mobilize 10 soldiers and horses in Handan City, which we just occupied

Those areas of the Chu State, to deter the people of the Chu State.As long as the King of Chu is not a fool, I believe they should not have the guts to provoke us. "

When Zhao Guo said these words, his expression was actually quite relaxed. The situation that Zhao Kuo is facing now is completely different from last year.

Last year, Zhao Kuo had just successfully seized power.Zhao Wang still has a large number of supporters in Zhao State, and Zhao State can be said to be in a very unstable state.

But a year later, Zhao Kuo succeeded in stabilizing the hearts of most people in Zhao State by virtue of the victory of the war.

All forces loyal to King Zhao were wiped out.

Now Zhao Guo has been completely controlled by Zhao Kuo, so Zhao Kuo can continue to launch wars without any scruples, in order to fight for the fastest time

To unify the whole world.

That is to say, Zhao Qian, the eldest son of Zhao Guo, is still just a young boy. If it takes another 10 or 8 years, Zhao Kuo can directly let Zhao Qian be in charge of supervising the country.

I went out on my own.

After hearing Zhao Kuo's arrangement, Xu Li and others did not raise any objections, and the matter ended like this.

Compared with the previous period when King Zhao was in power, there was a big fight every time he went out. Compared with this time, the war resolution can be said to be fast, which is unexpected, and the efficiency is very amazing.

of.

This is what Zhao Kuo had been thinking about before, the benefit of being able to improve efficiency by taking power. Frankly speaking, Zhao Kuo felt that if the Battle of Changping more than 10 years ago, it was Zhao Kuo who

If Kuo came to power, then I am afraid that the entire process of unifying the world has already ended, and a new dynasty should have been established.

This is because Zhao Kuo cannot determine his own identity when he time travels, otherwise, he will directly travel to the previous generation of Zhao Wang at the beginning, then everything will be destroyed.

It will be much easier to get it done, and it can be regarded as a small loss of time travel.

But in any case, it is definitely impossible for Zhao Kuo to continue to care about it in this kind of place. In short, this matter is completely decided in this way.

Soon the spring will be warm and the flowers will bloom, and another spring will arrive.

Zhao Kuo also went down to the farmland to understand the people's conditions and chat with some farmers as usual.

Many farmers in this era have been on the battlefield and fought with the fruit Zhao Kuo, so they are quite courageous. When chatting with Zhao Kuo, they often

There were some sharp words, and some people even complained to Zhao Kuo in public about how corrupt their officials were.

After Zhao Kuo heard these complaints, he would immediately send Nightingale's people to investigate secretly. Once the investigation found that the situation was true, the official would be immediately arrested.

Immediately remove him and ask him to go to prison.

This is tantamount to a very novel anti-corruption method, and it also sounded the alarm for officials from all over the country of Zhao. They secretly called this method "anti-corruption in the field".

After the spring plowing was over, Zhao Guo's war machine started rumbling.

This immediately attracted the attention of Qin State and Chu State. The top leaders of these two countries were immediately their spies in Zhao State, and let the spies do their best to investigate

Which country does Zhao Guo want to launch a war against?

It is impossible to hide such a large-scale action from others, so the kings of Qin and Chu were rewarded in a few days.
