Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Li Mu shook his head and denied Xian Shan's request: "That's unnecessary, you two go back and get ready, and leave with me tomorrow morning."

"Leaving?" The two were stunned at the same time.

Li Mu smiled, and said mysteriously: "As long as this matter goes well, not only will there be no need to persuade you to surrender, but Ru Xianshan will soon have the first batch of followers belonging to you."

Chapter 800 Xianshan's mental journey

Early the next morning, Li Mu set off first with five thousand cavalry.

For Li Mu's approach, Yi Qusheng was obviously very dissatisfied: "Why did you go to make a surprise attack, and I led the army forward?"

Li Mu's answer was very simple: "Because I am the chief general."

Yi Qusheng: ""

In fact, both Li Mu and Yi Qusheng knew very well that this time the raid could only be led by Li Mu.

Because only the elite of the Zhao Kingdom's Frontier Cavalry Corps under Li Mu's command can make one man with two horses, and launch a long-distance raid of thousands of miles around the clock. This can be seen from the raid on Xianyang last year. .

In fact, until now, Yiqu Sheng still couldn't figure out how Li Mu was able to cover such a long distance in three days, and then fought many battles one after another, defeating many elite Qin troops and destroying the entire palace. The Qin king Chu and Qin's important ministers were wiped out.

What Yi Qusheng couldn't understand was that there were 4 defenders in Xianyang City at that time, but when Yi Qusheng arrived, he found that the entire Xianyang City was basically controlled by Li Mu. The entire city of Xianyang was in a very tense calm.

In this regard, Yiqu Sheng can only explain that some people may be born to make contributions on the battlefield.

After watching Li Mu go away, Yi Qusheng turned his eyes and went back to his big tent to think about how to establish a qualified intelligence organization.

As for the upcoming battle, Yi Qusheng himself was not worried at all.

After all, I was on the side with Li Mu. No matter how strong the Huns and Wusun people were, it was impossible for them to defeat Li Mu.

For Xianshan, although it has been a long time since he has been dispatched with the army, as a Hun who has learned how to ride a horse since he was three years old, the surprise attack on horseback for three consecutive days is not enough for him to bear. Can't live.

What really surprised Xian Shan was that the tall Zhao cavalry who looked like they were from the Central Plains were also able to withstand such long-distance raids very well, and even their horse riding skills were already inferior to those of a real Hun There are not many left.

They didn't even have the obvious bow-legs that a true knight should have.

Xian Shan also discovered that his own governor did not use the sun to identify the direction, but a small thing called a "compass".

This so-called compass is said to be made by the Mohists, and it looks like a treasure, which can be seen from the degree of care Li Mu took for it.

Xian Shan has also played with this thing before, and found that no matter how the thing is swung, the pointer inside will definitely point to the south stubbornly, and there will never be the slightest deviation.

"This is too miraculous and convenient." Xian Shan couldn't help expressing emotion.

You must know that things like the sun cannot be seen every moment after all, and it is difficult to find reference objects such as woods on the grassland. Once it is cloudy or dark, then this compass is an artifact.

In addition, Xian Shan also found that this Zhao Guo cavalry led by Li Mu can be said to embody the four words of order and prohibition to the fullest, and sometimes even Xian Shan himself has an illusion that he seems to be fighting with A group of very sophisticated marionettes act together.

Two days later, when the sun was setting again, Xian Shan, who was gnawing on the dry food soaked in water, suddenly came to his senses, and said to Tu Xie beside him, "This is not the way to Yanzhi Mountain, this is the way to go. The direction of the weak water!"

"That's right, this is the direction to Ruoshui." A very calm voice came over, Xian Shan and Tu Xie looked back subconsciously, then stood up hastily, and saluted the person who came: "I have seen the governor. "

Li Mu waved his hands, and sat beside Xian Shan: "Tell me, how did you know I was going to Ruoshui?"

Xian Shan took a deep breath, still immersed in the shock of his correct guess, and said after a while: "So, the governor should want to surprise the women, children, cattle and sheep of the Huns?"

As a former Hun nobleman, Xian Shan knew very well how the Huns fought.

The women and children of the Huns did not stay in their homes like the countries of the Central Plains during the war. In fact, the grassland people did not have the concept of "home". Instead, they would follow the Huns army and set off with a large number of livestock. Come to supply the army.

Generally speaking, a distance of hundreds or even thousands of miles will be kept between the Huns' army and the women and children. question.

When Xian Shan said this, he slowly raised his head and glanced at Li Mu, and then said: "Generally speaking, these livestock can number in the hundreds of thousands or even millions. Such large-scale livestock must drink a huge amount of water, and even Within thousands of miles of Guanyanzhi Mountain, there is no doubt that only weak water is the best choice."

Li Mu laughed loudly, and patted Xian Shan on the shoulder vigorously: "That's right, very good, you were able to guess this without knowing anything, it's worthy of the King's appreciation for you."

"Your Majesty?" Xian Shan was suddenly taken aback.

You must know that this is not the first time Xianshan has heard such words from Li Mu. If Li Mu said it once, it might be Li Mu’s words, then in the current situation, what Li Mu said seems to be not true. A polite word.

Xian Shan was secretly surprised. As a "Zhao native", Xian Shan was of course familiar with all the great achievements of his own King Zhao. When I grow up, I want to become a strong man like a king."

Moreover, Xian Shan himself had brief contact with that great king, and knew that the great king who was about the same age as himself was indeed an outstanding figure, which made him far from being able to hold a candle to him. The big man above the nine heavens actually noticed him. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Xian Shan's heart suddenly became a little confused.

Li Mu looked at Xian Shan from the side, suddenly smiled, and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty is a very reasonable person, as long as you can make suitable achievements, then Your Majesty will give you the reward you deserve."

Xian Shan smiled wryly, and said: "I still don't know why the king and the governor are so in love with each other."

Li Mu didn't answer, but patted Xian Shan on the shoulder, and left gracefully.

It took seven full days, and on the afternoon of the eighth day, a calm and majestic river finally appeared in front of this elite cavalry.

Xian Shan stared at the river in front of him, his face couldn't help being a little dazed.

Once upon a time, Xian Shan, as the eldest prince of the Baiyang tribe, also followed the Huns army to this place many times, and used this place as a supply ground to attack the Huns' deadly enemy, the Yuezhi.

Now the Yue clan has been beaten almost to death by the Huns, and the remnants of the Yue clan have also fled thousands of miles away, and the two sides of the war have become the Huns, Wusun and Zhao's army.

"It's really a dead end," Xian Shan murmured.

During these days of marching, Xian Shan had a deep understanding of the Zhao cavalry beside him.

Tenacity, tenacity, bravery, discipline, and obedience have never imagined that they can really see such an army that combines so many advantages.

Then think of my Aries cavalry, who was once one of the first three tribes of the Huns, compared with this Zhao cavalry, they are simply chickens and dogs!

Xian Shan was very sure at this moment that even without the legendary armored cavalry, this Zhao cavalry could easily beat the Huns or Wusun.

"This is definitely the best cavalry in the world."

Someone patted Xian Shan on the shoulder heavily, which shocked Xian Shan a lot. When he turned his head, he realized that it was his little friend Tu Xie.

"Why, are you in love with the scene?"

Xian Shan hummed, and then looked at Tu Xie with some surprise: "How did you learn such fluffy words?"

Tu Xie laughed loudly, and pointed to Li Mu who was not far away: "It's what the governor said, and the governor asked you to go there."

Xian Shan mounted the horse silently, and came to Li Mu: "Great Governor."

Li Mu glanced at Xianshan, and then said to the two Zhao cavalry generals in front of him: "You should arrange for someone to investigate immediately. If my prediction is correct, the women and children of the Huns must be on the left, just two steps up and down. Hundred miles as the scope of investigation."

"Great Governor," Xian Shan suddenly interrupted Li Mu's words, "Great Governor doesn't need to spend so much trouble, I know where the women and children of the Huns are."

"Oh?" Li Mu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said: "Xian Shan, you have to think clearly, this is in the army, if you falsely report military information, then I will deal with it according to military law."
