Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

"General, Li Mu has led the Zhao army to the south again!"

"Break camp, let's go!"

The next afternoon.

"General, Li Mu has gone north again!"

""

morning of the third day.

"General, Li Mu is heading south again!"

"Send 4 horses to set off first!"

The afternoon of the third day.

"The general, the vanguard and Li Mu fought, and lost 2000 people!"

"How is Li Mu's battle damage?"

"Less than one hundred!"

"What?" Wang Yan's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, he grabbed the neck of the messenger in front of him, and shouted: "How could such a thing happen?"

"General, what Li Mu is leading is all cavalry, they can go away with one blow, and the vanguard has nothing to do."

"Idiots!" Wang Lu's roar spread throughout the handsome tent: "It's all a group of idiots!"

On the fourth day, when Wang Yan was racking his brains to find a way to deal with this damned Li Mu, who was like brown sugar, a messenger from Xianyang arrived with an urgent order of eight hundred miles.

"The great king Yanjia has passed away. General Wang Yan doesn't need to entangle with Zhao Jun, and the army will return to Xianyang as soon as possible!"

Chapter 568 Tarsus Maggots (First Change)

"Withdraw troops" When Wang Yan received this order, he hesitated for a while.

From Wang Lu's personal point of view, he naturally hopes that he can fight fiercely with Li Mu and defeat him. After all, Qin Wangzhu has made it very clear in the order he issued at the beginning, let Wang Lu come. "Die crime and meritorious deeds".

And now?Now Wang Yan not only wasted a lot of military rations and supplies, but also lost about [-] soldiers. No matter how you look at it, it is not up to the standard of committing crimes and making meritorious service.

In the current situation, don't say anything about wearing a crime and doing meritorious deeds. It is good to not be guilty of a crime.

However, after some psychological struggle, Wang Lu still made a decision.

"Pass down the order, and the whole army will pull out the camp early tomorrow morning and return to Xianyang!"

Under the current circumstances, Wang Lu absolutely did not dare to disobey the orders of the new King Qin.

Not familiar.

In fact, due to the fact that Qin Wangzhu has not been on the throne for a few years, most of the Qin ministers did not consider that Qin's throne would change again in such a short period of time, so they did not deliberately contact the current Qin State. Prince Zhao Zichu.

Coupled with Zi Chu's previous background as a concubine and the experience of being hostages in Handan all the year round, except for Lu Buwei and Yangquan Jun Michen, who have blood or interest relations with Zi Chu, most of the ministers of the Qin State are in various places. I just met Zi Chu once during the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven, and Wang Lu was no exception.

If you are not familiar with it, then of course you can only do your duty as a courtier.

Otherwise, if a disobedience and disobedience come down, the death of the whole family will be light, and it is normal for the whole family or even the three families to be implicated.

Moreover, Wang Yan is also very clear now that it is absolutely impossible for him to catch up with Li Mu, how can two legs catch up to four legs?

It is true that the Qin army also had some cavalry, but if these thousands of Qin cavalry were to face the [-] cavalry led by Li Mu, the result would hardly need to be considered.

If you go further north, you will enter the Longdong plateau, which is the territory of the Yiqu people, and the actions of the Qin army there are also disadvantageous.

You can't fight, and you have the king's order here, so what can you do if you don't retreat?

So after Wang Lu pondered for a while, he immediately summoned all the Qin generals and issued an order.

"Xianyang has an order, the army will set off immediately to return to Xianyang tomorrow morning!"

This news will naturally surprise many people, and even a general stood up to question this decision because he was too angry.

Wang Lu could understand this general very well, because he knew that this general's younger brother had become one of the two thousand soldiers killed in the Qin army during the two days of war.

So he said very politely: "If you drag it on, you'll get fifty military sticks, and you'll be demoted two ranks. If you have any objections, you can go directly to the cook camp to report."

There is no longer any objection.

The next day, Qin's army began to break out of camp and set off towards the south.

For the [-] Qin army, this is obviously not a war trip worth boasting about.

Coming in a mighty way, returning with nothing, this is obviously a very bad ending for these [-] Qin soldiers who are eager to make contributions on the battlefield.

But what they didn't expect was that the war had not yet come to an end.

Because Li Mu did not allow this war to end like this.

"What? Do you want to continue beating?" Yi Qusheng opened his mouth wide, swallowing a goose egg without any problem.

"I came to Guanzhong with an army of [-], not to snatch a little food and burn down a dilapidated city." Li Mu told Yi Qusheng this way.

Yi Qusheng's eyes widened, and he looked at Li Mu as if looking at a monster: "Are you really going to start chasing after the enemy?"

In Yi Qusheng's view, Li Mu's performance this time is actually unprecedented.

With only [-] cavalry, they were able to come and go freely in the Guanzhong land, robbing money, food, and people. In the end, they even robbed the former capital of the Qin people, and burned it down after the robbing.

It is true that Li Mu's troops did not wipe out many Qin people in this war, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is definitely the most serious blow to the morale and popular support of the Qin people in the previous Qin-Zhao wars.

This time it is Liyang City, so will it be Xianyang City next time?

This problem will hang over all the people of the Qin State like a huge shadow, and put the people of the Qin State, from the king to the common people, under tremendous pressure.

No matter how many people want to do such a feat, they can't do it.

If it were someone else, they should be satisfied with such a record, and happily go back to the country to receive the reward, but this Li Mu actually wants to continue to turn around and go south again, and re-enter the unknown battle situation?

Li Mu snorted through his nostrils, and just by looking at the expression on his face, it could be seen how dissatisfied he was with Yiqu Sheng's idiot question.

Guerrilla warfare, what a wonderful word.

If he couldn't reproduce the modern art of war of the sages, then wouldn't Li Mu have failed the high expectations of the king and the trust of the [-] Zhao cavalrymen under his command?

"Idiots, these sons of the state of Zhao under my command are still waiting to use the heads of the people of Qin to go back and exchange for credit to support their families. Pass the order, and the whole army will go south immediately! This time, we must bite off a few pieces of the people of Qin. Here comes the meat!"

With Li Mu's order, [-] Zhao cavalrymen rumbled southward from the edge of the Longdong plateau, and followed closely in the direction of the Qin army.
