Zhao Kuo studied the art of war since he was a child, and when it comes to eloquence, he thinks that no one in the world can beat him. Zhao She once talked with his father about the method of arranging wars, but he didn't think he knew the art of war.

When Zhao Kuo's mother asked why, Zhao She said, "War is a matter of life and death for soldiers, but Kuo 'er said it so easily. In the future, Zhao will not need generals. If you really use him, it must be him who defeated Zhao. "

As soon as Zhao Kuo gained the authority of Lian Po, he immediately reformed the law and mobilized officials. After receiving the information, the general of Qin pretended to be defeated by the ingenious tactics of Indiana Jones, but attacked Zhao's trench and supply line from behind, splitting Zhao's army in two, which greatly boosted Zhao's morale.

After more than 40 days, Zhao was starving to death, so Zhao Kuo sent an elite soldier to personally fight to the death and shot Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo's army was defeated, hundreds of thousands of troops surrendered to Qin Jun, and Qin Jun buried them alive.
