Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

As a vanguard general, Yi Qusheng did not run to the vanguard camp, but followed Li Mu, looking like a captain of the personal guard.

Li Mu was not surprised by this, anyway, in Li Mu's opinion, the vanguard lieutenant named Tu Xie was actually a little bit stubborn, but he was orderly in handling things, so it was a good choice.

"Governor, tell me, when will my title of Lord Yiqu come down?" Yiqu Sheng seemed a little worried.

Li Mu looked at Yiqu Sheng for a moment, and said with a smirk: "Why, do you really want the governor to call you Yiqu Lord so much?"

Yi Qusheng's body trembled, and he showed a very serious smile: "No, the governor has misunderstood, even if I become the emperor, I am still your loyal subordinate!"

Yi Qusheng slapped his chest hard.

Li Mu let out a hey, turned his head back, sighed after a while, and said seriously: "Actually, I have already told the king about this matter, and the king has already given me an answer."

"Oh?" Yi Qusheng's ears immediately pricked up, and there was a tendency to flutter.

Li Mu didn't mean to joke with Yiqu Sheng this time, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, the reason why the king has not granted you the title of king is very simple, because you want Yiqu City? The current Yiqu City is not in our Zhao country's hands."

Yi Qusheng suddenly realized, and slapped his thigh: "I said, so it is like this."

Li Mu didn't speak, just looked at Yi Qu Sheng quietly.

Yi Qusheng coughed dryly: "Well, Commander-in-Chief, I'm going to the front to see if there's anything going on in the Qianfeng Camp, so I'm leaving!"

Saying that, Yi Qusheng pinched his legs, and his whole body was like a sharp arrow, and he jumped out of the horse.

Lieutenant General Zhao Kuo saw all this, couldn't help but shook his head with a smile: "This future Lord Yiqu is really interesting."

Li Mu laughed, and said: "It's natural. Although this person is Yi Qu Rong, who belongs to the ranks of Hu, but in fact, he still yearns for Hua Xiaming in his heart. If he is named Yi Qu Lord in the future, it will be very important to Hua Xia in Yi Qu Rong." His spread is also a good thing."

Zhao Kuo nodded in agreement, and said: "That's true. To be honest, I was a little disapproving of these barbarians at the beginning, but after getting in touch with them for a long time, I realized that they are actually no different from us. As long as you educate a lot, you will sooner or later become obedient citizens of our country of Zhao."

Li Mu's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "It's a little surprising that General Zhao Kuo, as a prince, would support my opinion."

Zhao Kuo laughed and said: "Actually, I didn't think so a few years ago. It's just that I have had some experience in fighting under the command of the governor over the years, so I have come into contact with these barbarian cavalry. To be honest, Although these barbarian cavalry have fierce instincts, as long as they are strictly controlled, they will become excellent cavalry, which is beyond the reach of my Zhao cavalry."

Li Mu nodded and said: "That's right, that's right. The Zhao people are tall and strong but not good at riding, so they are good candidates for armored cavalry. Although the Hu people are not as tall as the Zhao people, their riding skills are far superior to the Zhao people's cavalry , Whether it is scouts or light cavalry is an excellent choice. Such a combination of the two can maximize the combat effectiveness of cavalry."

Zhao Kuo listened very attentively, then nodded in agreement and said, "The Metropolitan Governor is indeed worthy of being the No. 1 cavalry general in the world. When it comes to the use of cavalry, no one can surpass the Metropolitan Governor!"

Li Mu said with a smile: "General Zhao Kuo, please don't put gold on my face. In fact, I just have some small experiences."

The two talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious for a while.

After a long while, Zhao Kuo said: "This time the governor led [-] cavalry to the south, he wouldn't just want to contain Wang Jian's troops and finish the job, right?"

Li Mu was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and glanced at Zhao Kuo, only to find that there was a bit of fiery intent in Zhao Kuo's eyes.

Li Mu understood it all at once, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

To be honest, Li Mu actually understood why Handan would match him with a lieutenant general like Zhao Kuo.

On the one hand, it is because Zhao Kuo really knows a lot about cavalry, and he is also the commander of the armored cavalry in Handan, so he is a real expert.On the other hand, Zhao Kuo is also a more reassuring general in Handan, and it can somewhat play a supervisory role by being placed next to Li Mu.

Li Mu is not at all disgusted with such supervision, on the contrary, out of some kind of worry, Li Mu very much welcomes Zhao Kuo's arrival.

Li Mu actually figured it out a few days ago after being enlightened by Yi Qusheng, that is, his worries about the king were completely superfluous.

But the problem is that, as a minister who is far away from the king, if he is criticized by others in the court and at the same time cannot give his own thoughts back to him, it may also make the king suspicious of himself.

It would be different if Zhao Kuo was there. In this way, Li Mu would have a direct channel to communicate with Handan, especially with his own king.

So in Li Mu's heart, he wanted to win Zhao Kuo over. If possible, it would be best to let Zhao Kuo be the deputy general of the Border Cavalry Corps, and keep a long-term, direct channel to Tianting.

That being the case, if it is inconvenient to say to other subordinates, you can say it to Zhao Kuo.

Li Mu coughed and said: "General Zhao Kuo is right. Although the king did order us to find a way to restrain Wang Jian this time, in my opinion, since such a large army has been dispatched, it is natural that the dispatch was not in vain. If it is possible, I plan to fight Wang Jian to see how the commanding ability of this new Qin army general is."

Zhao Kuo's eyes became brighter when he heard it, and he hurriedly said: "I am dissatisfied with the governor, and I think so too."

Of course Zhao Kuo also wanted to make meritorious service.

As the eldest son of the famous Ma Fujun Zhao Shezhi, the pressure on Zhao Kuo has always been very heavy.

After all, the aura of his father is there. If Zhao Kuo behaves badly, not only will he be looked down upon by others, but even the reputation of the deceased Zhao She will be endangered.

So Zhao Kuo has been working hard all the time, striving to make greater contributions to Zhao Guo.

Over the years, Zhao Kuo has actually grown a lot. Most of the time he enjoyed victory with Zhao Guo, but he also suffered defeat in Hedong County. All in all, it was a story of laughter and tears.

Now Zhao Kuo can be said to be a very mature general, but his dedication to meritorious service has never changed.

Because Zhao Kuo's dream has always been to win another title of emperor through his own efforts, and prove to the whole world that he is no worse than anyone else!

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Kuo is unwilling to let go of any opportunity to make meritorious service.

Originally, Zhao Kuo wanted to find an opportunity to persuade Li Mu, but he didn't expect that Li Mu's intentions coincided with his own. This surprised Zhao Kuo, and hurriedly said, "I don't know what the governor's plan is?"

Li Mu nodded and said: "There is indeed a plan, just ask General Zhao Kuo to be my staff."

When Zhao Kuo heard that Li Mu's plan was in place, he felt even more determined, and hurriedly said, "I'd like to ask the general to tell you."

Li Mu smiled, and said: "Now the task given to us by the king is to restrain Wang Jian, so the first thing we have to do is to find a way to transfer Wang Jian back."

Zhao Kuo nodded in agreement and said, "That's right. So is the governor planning to attack Xianyang City?"

Li Mu said with a smile: "I have already breached Xianyang City twice. If I attack Xianyang City again this time, I am afraid that Qin's monarchs and ministers will not give this opportunity again. Although there are [-] cavalry, if they are used to attack Xianyang , is still a little insufficient."

Zhao Kuo thought for a while, and agreed with Li Mu's words.

Although Li Mu broke into Xianyang City twice in a row before, those two breaks were all by means of surprise attacks without exception, and they were not breaking through the city in an open and above board manner.

If you use cavalry to attack the city head-on, then it seems stupid.

"By the way, isn't there thunder?" Zhao Kuo said suddenly.

Li Mu shook his head and said: "Zhentianlei is useful for a small city like Yiqu City, but it is useless for a big city like Xianyang. According to the craftsmen, the master craftsmen in Handan City are still improving Zhentianlei As for when the results will be obtained, it is still unknown."

Zhao Kuo sighed in disappointment, and said, "Since this is the case, what should we do?"

Li Mu said with a smile: "Actually, apart from Xianyang City, there is another place that Wang Jian is likely to rescue. I plan to attack that place to force Wang Jian to return to his rescue. Then I will come with Wang Jian in the wild. Last decisive battle!"

Zhao Kuo cheered up, and hurriedly asked: "Dare to ask the governor, where is this place?"

Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "This is the place"

"Jingyang!" Li Mu said to Zhao Kuo with certainty.
