Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Page 530

It seems like I haven't heard from him for a long time. "

Wang Jian obviously understood this quite well, and immediately said: "Mr. Wu An has already moved to Chengdu a few years ago."

Only then did Zhao Kuo show an expression of enlightenment, and said: "No wonder I couldn't see him when I was in Xianyang City before. It turns out that I have moved to Bashu. That place is not bad. Although it is a bit hot, there is Li Bing. The resulting Dujiangyan will surely be the most prosperous and stable place in the world in the future."

After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Wang Jian's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu Xin knows so much about Bashu in Qin Kingdom."

Zhao Kuo laughed, and said to Wang Jian, "To tell you the truth, my understanding of your country of Qin is far superior to that of anyone in your country of Qin."

What Zhao Kuo said is really not bragging. Whether as a time traveler or as an enemy after time travel, Zhao Kuo has a very deep research and understanding of Qin.

After all, this is the most powerful and glorious country in this era. If it weren't for Zhao Kuo's crossing, then the dawn of the establishment of the Great Qin Dynasty would have already appeared.

After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Wang Jian was also thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhao Kuo said lightly: "Actually, you and I know very well that although this war will not have any results, in the battle for world hegemony, Qin is doomed to lose."

Wang Jian retorted almost immediately: "Wu Xinjun's words are too exaggerated. Now everything is not over yet, and our Daqin will never be defeated by you so easily."

Obviously, by this time, Wang Jian had not lost his fighting spirit.

Zhao Kuo looked at Wang Jian, who was as energetic as a young lion, and smiled gently.

"As a Qin native, of course you can understand this, but what I want to remind you is that for so many years, our Huaxia tribe has been divided into so many vassal states, and it's a sad thing to kill each other. thing?

I am not here today to tell you anything else, but to tell you that it is time for us Huaxia people to unify.

This world is far wider than you imagined. If you only set your sights on the Guanzhong and Central Plains, then I can say that you are too narrow.

I have many, many alien races that we need to conquer, we should end them as soon as possible, the cannibalism of the Huaxia race is the right way.

Take it, when you read this map, you will know that, in fact, our thoughts are no longer on the same level. "

After saying this, Zhao Kuo gestured to Su Li who was beside him. Su Li, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately took out a map from his arms and handed it to Wang Jian.

After seeing the map in Wang Jian's hands, Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Remember my words, our goal should be the sea of ​​stars, not killing each other on this small land."

After saying this, Zhao Kuo ignored Wang Jian and left with Su Li and several Chi You army guards around him.

Wang Jian looked at Zhao Kuo's leaving figure with a puzzled expression.

"Small land?"

For Wang Jian, the current Daqin and the world of China are already the whole world in Wang Jian's cognition.

So Wang Jian was not only puzzled, but also a little unconvinced in his heart.

If even this world is small, how big is the world that Zhao Kuo knows?

But all this doubt and dissatisfaction disappeared the moment Wang Jian spread out the map.

Looking at the world map in front of him, Wang Jian was dumbfounded.

Chapter 1016 Wang Jian thinks he is a frog in a well

Before seeing this map, Wang Jian was sitting on a horse, but after seeing the things on the map clearly, Wang Jian almost fell off his horse.

The map Zhao Kuo gave Wang Jian is a 100-point real world map.

The moment he saw the map, Wang Jian almost didn't recognize what was going on on the map, until Wang Jian saw the territory clearly circled with red notes on it, the total territory of all the countries in China today, Only then did I know that was the case.

In this lesson, Wang Jian suddenly understood why Zhao Kuo said that the world is so big, because the world is really big.

Even if you look at the territory of the Qin State, it can now rank second in the world. However, if you compare Qin State with the whole world, then Qin State is simply a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning .

So Wang Jian knew right away why Zhao Kuo had the confidence to look at the world in his eyes when he was talking just now, because Zhao Kuo really had his eyes on the whole world.

Look at the Hexi Corridor, the desert of the Western Regions, and the plateau in the west to the west of Qin.

Look at the vast desert in the north, where the land once occupied by the Huns has now become part of the territory of Zhao State.

Looking at the east from Qi State to the east, Wang Jian originally thought that there was a vast ocean, but he never thought that there was an island called Fusang Islands not far to the east of the ocean.

Then you have to go through the Fusang Islands to enter the real ocean.

Looking at the south side again, in Wang Jian's cognition, there are all kinds of Yue people in the south side, which is commonly known as Baiyue, and there is nothing else.

But now after seeing this map, Wang Jian realized that there is actually a larger area in the south of the south occupied by Baiyue. There are peninsulas, archipelagos, oceans, and even a piece of China that looks like it is today. Continents of comparable size.

"Is this world really so vast?"

Wang Jian seemed to have lost his mind, muttering to himself, unable to control himself for a while.

It has to be said that although this map is just a map, the impact on Wang Jian is extremely powerful, and it can even be said to subvert Wang Jian's worldview.

At this moment, Wang Jian suddenly understood very deeply what Zhao Kuo said just now, as well as the look in Zhao Kuo's eyes just now.

Perhaps for Zhao Kuo just now, Wang Jian is just such a frog in a well who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and only thinks about disputes within the Huaxia Group.

"It turns out that this is the real Lord Wu Xin."

Wang Jian didn't know whether he said this with emotion or to comfort himself.

Seeing Wang Jian, who was a little out of his mind and returned to the Qin Army's position, Meng Ao, the leader of the Qin Army, was also taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help asking about the process of the meeting just now.

After asking everything clearly, Meng Ao immediately asked Wang Jian to take out the map to have a look.

Although Wang Jian's narration has already passed, Meng Ao was also taken aback when he saw the world map in front of him, and let out a sigh of relief.

You must know that Meng Ao is from Qi, and he has been related to the sea since he was a child, so when he looked at this world map, he found that many things on this world map can be related to his childhood.

Meng Ao was even more shocked when some of the knowledge handed down by the ancestors was verified.

Wang Jian couldn't bear it, and said to Meng Ao: "General, is the map Wu Xinjun gave us real?"

Meng Ao was silent for a while, and then said: "Although I really don't want to admit it, this map is at least in line with the old man's perception of the ocean to the east.

Frankly speaking, although I don't know how Wu Xinjun got this map, I tend to think that this map is indeed real. "

At this moment, Wang Jian and Meng Ao looked at each other speechlessly.

Wang Jian felt a little lost in his heart.

For a long time, Wang Jian regarded Zhao Kuo as an opponent, and worked hard to grow up, hoping that one day he could fight Zhao Kuo with dignity and defeat Zhao Kuo, so as to regain the glory for Qin.

But at this moment, Wang Jian suddenly discovered that Zhao Kuo no longer considered Wang Jian, or even anyone in the Huaxia clan, as an opponent.

Zhao Kuo's gaze has long been detached, he has already set his sights on the world, and has already set his sights on conquering foreign races, not on the civil war of the Huaxia tribe itself.

What is the gap?

This is the real difference!If it is a gap in military thinking or military tactics, Wang Jian thinks that there may not be no chance to catch up, but now it is a gap in ideological realm!This gap is completely irreparable, Wang Jian knew that he would never be able to catch up with Zhao Kuo in this life!Suddenly, Meng Ao laughed and patted Wang Jian on the shoulder: "Actually, you are too worried, General Wang Jian.

The reason why Wu Xinjun gave you this thing, the old man judged that he wanted to disturb your mind, and even wanted to lure you to surrender! "

Wang Jian was stunned for a moment: "To lure me to surrender?"

Wang Jian really didn't think about this aspect. After all, Zhao Kuo himself was only a few years older than Wang Jian, and with the help of generals like Li Mu and Xu Li, no matter how confident Wang Jian was, he would never think that Zhao Kuo would like him.

Meng Ao nodded, and said seriously: "Yes, he knows that you are the only hope for our Daqin today, so he hopes to use these things to lure you to surrender and let you work for him! The old man hopes that you will not fall into his trap. , Otherwise, the millions of people in Daqin will all be finished! Think about it, think about the tragic situation of these people in Daqin after they fall under the rule of Zhao Guo in the future, do you really want such a thing to happen?

We must resist Zhao Kuo, and we must not let his intentions succeed! "

Meng Ao's words poured directly on Wang Jian's head like a basin of cold water, and Wang Jian came back to his senses.

Wang Jian woke up like a dream, and after a while, he bowed respectfully to Meng Ao: "If it wasn't for the general's guidance, the final general would have been deceived by Wu Xinjun!"

Seeing this, Meng Ao couldn't help laughing: "If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There is nothing good about it! Well, you may be in a trance today, so go back and have a good rest."

The smile was all smiles, but Meng Ao looked at the back of Wang Jian leaving, but still had hidden worries in his heart.

Without him, the impact of this map on Meng Ao is actually no less than the impact on Wang Jian, but after all, Meng Ao is a person who has lived for decades, and with his rich experience, he can suppress these impacts in his heart That's all.

Meng Ao is a native of Qi. Although it is said that this era does not pay attention to the concept of a country, it pays attention to the saying that "a scholar dies for his confidant".

It's just that people are more ruthless than grass and trees. Even though Meng Ao has been away from Qi State for many years, he still cannot give up the homeland where he grew up in his heart, so after hearing the news that Qi State was attacked by Zhao State After the news, Meng Ao was also one of the most resolute main fighters in the Qin court, and he still chose to be the chief general of the Qin army even though he knew that he might run into Zhao Kuo.

You must know that Meng Ao lost to Zhao Kuo not once or twice.

After a long time, Meng Ao let out a long breath and clenched his fists.

"Wu Xinjun, I admire you very much.

Not only do I admire your ability to command operations, but also your ideological realm and courage to look at the world.

But the old man is not you, the old man is just an ordinary person, the old man only hopes to make some good names in Qin State, and only hopes that the old man's own hometown, Qi State, can continue to exist.

Therefore, even if you want to go against the general trend, or you are doomed to fail, I will fight with you to the end, and will never give you any chance to win easily! "

Of course, Zhao Kuo didn't understand Meng Ao's thoughts at this time, and even if he did, Zhao Kuo wouldn't care.

Because at this moment, what Zhao Kuo really cares about is a piece of news.

"As far as Qi State is concerned, how is Li Mu's battle situation in Chang State City?

Regarding Li Mu's letter, how did the king behave? "

Handan, King Zhao's Palace.

Zhao Wang looked at the memorial in front of him, with a dubious expression on his face.

"This Li Mu, couldn't it be that he purposely published this kind of memorial to deceive the widows in order to snatch the military exploits?"

After hearing Zhao Wang's words, the eunuch Ling at the side felt a little strange.

You know, King Zhao has always trusted Li Mu very much, but today he raised doubts after receiving Li Mu's urgent memorial.

So, what exactly did Li Mu write in this memorial to make King Zhao, who trusted Li Mu so much, doubt it?

Just when eunuch Ling was guessing secretly, King Zhao suddenly raised his head and asked eunuch Ling in front of him, "Tell me, is there a super weapon in this world that can directly destroy city walls?"

Since King Zhao suspected Li Mu, of course he had to find someone to ask.

But who?

Zhao Kuo and Xu Li, who are familiar with the military, are not here now, and the Zhou brothers don't understand these things, so after thinking about it, let's find a well-informed eunuch Ling who happens to be right in front of him and ask him.

After hearing Zhao Wang's question, the eunuch Ling was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Could it be that what the king is talking about is the trebuchet made by Lu Ban in the legend?

It is said that if the weight of the stone bomb is sufficient, it is indeed possible to completely destroy a solid city wall within ten days and a half months. "

Zhao Wang laughed and shook his head: "If it's a trebuchet, why do I still ask you?

Forget it, you can just watch Li Mu's memorial. "

Eunuch Ling Wenyan hurried forward, took Li Mu's memorial and read it carefully.

As he read it, the eunuch stunned him: Li Mu actually said one thing in the "this" memorial, that is, Li Mu recently found several alchemists. Obtained the apocalypse, so he made an extremely powerful thing named "Sky Thunder".

According to Fang Shushi, if this kind of thunder can be accumulated in sufficient quantities, it can easily destroy a city.

After Li Mu conducted some experiments with Zhentianlei, he found that the power was really huge, so he planned to use it on the Qi army in Changguo City.

But considering that this kind of thing is so powerful, it is natural to solicit the order of King Zhao in advance.

Eunuch Ling was also full of shock and doubts after reading it, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there really such a powerful weapon in this world?"

After hearing the eunuch order's words, King Zhao rolled his eyes.

It was the widow who asked you, but now you are asking the widow?

After seeing Zhao Wang's expression, the eunuch Ling came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has lost his composure."

Zhao Wang shook his head helplessly: "You just tell the widow directly, do you think Li Mu's words are true or false?"

Eunuch Ling thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, this old minister thinks this matter is very simple.

If you want to judge whether Li Mu's words are true or not, you just need to let him use it once?

If it is really possible to break through the city of Changguo, then the king and the country of Zhao will naturally have a magic weapon when attacking the city in the future.

If it doesn't work, then this matter may be deliberately fabricated by Li Mu for the sake of greed, and the king should just reprimand and punish him. "

When Zhao Wang heard this, he finally showed a smile on his face: "It seems that this is the truth, so let's do it this way! Get someone to notify Li Mu immediately, and tell him that the widow has approved it, and let him behave well! By the way, tell him again." Li Mu, if it is really useful, those alchemists must hand over the secret formula, and then kill them all!"

When he said this, Zhao Wang's eyes flickered.

If the power of the "Shocking Thunder" is really so powerful, Zhao Kuo must not be able to learn the secret and control it in his hands!Wait, maybe this shocking thunder can become the trump card to get rid of Zhao Kuo?

Outside the city of Changguo, Zhao Jun camped.

Li Mu stood on his chariot, and beside him was Han Fei.

Why did Han Fei openly appear beside Li Mu?

Because although Han Fei came here this time under Zhao Kuo's order, Han Fei also has the official status of supervising the army!This is King Zhao's balance technique. The king of Zhao State wants to appoint Li Mu, but he doesn't want to tear himself apart with Zhao Kuo right away, so it is a good idea for Li Mu to lead the army and Zhao Kuo's people to be the supervisors. .
