The attacks of Zhao Xing, Zhao Yong and Yan caught the King of Zhongshan off guard. At the same time, this time, Zhao came over fiercely and discussed how to use troops in the hall, the King of Zhongshan really discovered several key problems.

The first question is very fatal. Three commanders are needed to be attacked by three groups. As a result, when electing the commander, those Confucians who talked freely would only talk loudly. However, if they really wanted to delegate this well-known person to be the commander, they immediately refused with all kinds of outstanding excuses. The final outcome was that the King of Zhongshan discovered that he had a great wise man, and even three candidates who could lead troops to fight were unable to be selected. This was embarrassing, quite embarrassing.

The second question is also in front of you. That is, the food you have not accumulated.

When the recruitment was first launched, the soldiers still brought three months of food, and the result was even more embarrassing to find that the Zhongshan people, who had always been brave and good at fighting, had actually evaded military service. In previous years, a large army of 200,000 to 300,000 troops became an instant. These tigers and wolves, with their fanaticism about war, rushed to the battlefield and gained their military glory. But this year, in the end, under the forced conditions, barely organized an army of 200,000 people.

But the food provided by these soldiers could not handle for a month, which surprised the King of Zhongshan.

The king of Zhongshan was obsessed with Confucianism because he believed that only Confucianism could govern the country well and get closer to China. The three-year governance result made him very satisfied. The streets were neat, the people knew etiquette, and the ministers were united. The most important thing was that because the people were at ease, the output of grain and iron in Zhongshan doubled compared with the past. Zhongshan had become a buyer of grain and became an exporter. The wheat sold to various vassal states every year after four customs clearances was an astronomical figure, which made Zhongshan very proud, because it was enough to show that he was much better than his father in governing the country.

I am a big grain-producing country, why do my people have no food in their hands?

After an urgent investigation, the King of Zhongshan suddenly realized that after the price of food in the fourth pass and Daijun Zhao State was as high as 400 gulf per hu, the people sold all the food in their hands, except for leaving only food that could only be eaten next year, and exchanged them for the square and glittering coins of Zhao State.

The people are rich, and what is rich is only the money in their hands, but they do not have the most basic materials - food.

So those soldiers who were in charge could only piece together food for one month. No matter how many people in the family were, they would starve to death. The King of Zhongshan, who was full of treasury, wanted to spend money to buy food, but he actually found that under the siege of Zhao, he could not buy food with money.

Now, the king of Zhongshan felt that some of his policies had been wrong, but it was too late to correct them.

So in a helpless manner, the King of Zhongshan sent his younger brother Gongzikuan, whom he didn't like.

If we say that everyone is a Confucian scholar and stands at a high position, then this Gongzi Kuan is an alien.

The alien is the alien. He does not study Confucianism, and he specializes in military tactics all day long, and has a deep understanding. He has also visited Guiguzi in the mountains, but he has not found it, and he has always felt sorry for him.

His younger brother, Gongzi Kuan, had always had a quarrel with the concubines of the Zhongshan King, and always made a whisper in his ears about the disaster of Confucianism. Zhongshan had quietly fallen, which of course was not in line with the taste of the Zhongshan King.

Fortunately, the King of Zhongshan also knew that the biggest threat to the throne of Zhongshan was that the real general Sima family had been eradicated in the last turmoil.

But it was precisely because of the last turmoil that the new Zhongshan King deeply felt that the Zhongshan legion could no longer be handed over to others and must be in the hands of his own family.

For this reason, the King of Zhongshan, who has always admired Confucianism, was actually a wise king. He had tolerate this younger brother who always had sex with him and loved military tactics. Moreover, he handed over the power of the army of the Three Kingdoms to him with confidence. So every time he was discussing affairs in the main hall, there was always a young and tall figure, covered in armor, incompatible with those officials with high crowns.

This is really a good general who is in trouble. This time, the King of Zhongshan gave all his hopes to defend the country to this brother who was incompatible in the court.

Faced with the attacks of the enemies on three sides, the two brothers could only conspire all night, and finally decided to attack the weak Yan State first and then plunder some food in Yan State.

Gongzi Kuan was indeed a powerful general. He led those teams that were no longer as strong as before, and at lightning speed, he defeated the Yan army and killed his generals. Then he plundered all the Yan cities he had previously occupied and returned to the army immediately to deal with Zhao Xing who had already reached Quyang.

The King of Zhongshan immediately sent envoys to negotiate with Yan State, and at the cost of returning thirty Yan State cities, he vowed not to invade each other.

King Yan also knew that after years of civil war and the looting of Qi, his treasury was empty, so he went down to the fore, accepted Zhongshan's conditions, took back 30 empty cities of his own, and ended the war with decent end.

With a mountain of Yan's supplies and the Gongzi Kuan returned to Quyang, facing the army of 100,000 Zhao Xing, he did not choose to fight a field battle with Zhao Xing, but left his deputy general, led 50,000 soldiers to defend Quyang to the death. Then, he led 100,000 soldiers composed of prisoners of Yan, and went south overnight to block Zhao Yong.

Now Zhao Yong has reached the Yuan clan with great force, and the Yuan clan is in danger.

Faced with the strong and morale main force of Zhao State, Gongzi Kuan decided to resist Zhao Yong step by step and order each city to defend and guard the city. As long as you stick to one month, you will have no responsibility for loss and you can give up. If you can't hold on for one month, you will be killed and guard the entire clan.

This order was immediately recognized by the King of Zhongshan. The Yuan family garrison and the city guard did not last for a month. The King of Zhongshan killed all the clans of these two officials without hesitation.

When Zhao Yong's army reached Feng Long, he met the Zhongshan people defended and resisted in the city, and Zhao Yong's advancement in the north was slowed down.

It was three months later when Zhao Yong's army reached Shiyi. His military attack was already exhausted.

During this period, Gongzikuan saw that he had used space to exchange time for the enemy's exhaustion, so he rushed back to Quyang with another 50,000 soldiers, ready to attack Zhao Xing. Yes, it was an attack to solve the enemy in the north, and then headed south to deal with Zhao Yong.

Running back and forth like a lantern not only achieved brilliant results against Yan, but also stabilized the northern and southern fronts, which finally allowed Zhongshan to recover from the initial confusion. During this period, the King of Zhongshan once again used the agitation ability of Confucian scholars to barely recruited 50,000 militias again, so that Gongzikuan's troops could reach 100,000.

What role can one hundred thousand be used to one hundred thousand be?

Gongzi Kuan was confident that Zhao Xing's 100,000 troops should be exhausted when he besieged Quyang for two months. Gongzi Kuan was ready to attack.
