Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Hu Yiwei smiled and nodded towards Li Mu: "Don't worry, General, what they said must be the truth that they know, I can guarantee it with the head of the item."

When he spoke, his tone was very affirmative and natural, as if he was reporting the fact that the sun rises from the east every day.

Li Mu pondered for a while, then nodded towards the other party: "Very well, I'm sorry."

Seeing the other party's leaving figure, Li Mu had a complicated expression on his face.

To be honest, although he has dealt with Hu Yiwei many times, Li Mu really doesn't like the appearance of these guys.

Rigid, stubborn, cold and ruthless.

If it is said that commanders on the battlefield must have a heart as hard as a stone, then these guys seem to have a heart as hard as a stone at all times.

The so-called near Zhuzhechi, after being in contact with them for a long time, Li Mu wondered whether he would gradually become a cold-blooded murderer.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't find any useful information after being stationed here for so long, Li Mu really didn't want to hand over those prisoners who refused to speak to Hu Yiwei.

However, it seems that Hu Yiwei's ability is beyond doubt. The few Qiang patriarchs who were originally arrested fully confessed after only three days, at least that's what the Hu Yiwei leader in front of Li Mu said.

Judging from the confessions of these Qiang patriarchs, this time Yiqubo really escaped quite far.

After leaving Yiqu City, Yiqubo did not stay in the territory of Yiqu Kingdom south of Yinshan Mountain, but headed westward without stopping, towards Qinghai Lake in the West Sea.

It could be seen that Yi Qubo felt that Yinshan was not safe.

And this is indeed a very correct judgment, otherwise Yi Qubo would have to face the [-] army led by Li Mu.

"This guy can really escape!" Li Mu muttered, his fingers kept gesturing back and forth on the map, as if he was thinking about something.

He fled thousands of miles as soon as he escaped. For this era, this kind of escape can be said to be very far away.

Footsteps came from outside the tent, and then Yi Qu Sheng's voice came from the outside into the tent: "The vanguard Yi Qu Sheng returned to the camp to report the military situation."

Li Mu said without raising his head, "Come in."

Yi Qusheng strode into the handsome tent.

Li Mu looked up at Yiqu Sheng, and then asked, "How's your harvest today?"

Yi Qusheng smiled and said: "Governor, don't tell me, the information obtained by those Hu Yiwei people is really useful. There are indeed a group of Qiang people in the valley they said Hiding, we directly blocked the entrance of the valley, and then we caught the turtle in the urn. Just counted, this time we caught almost 6000 people!"

Yi Qusheng was in high spirits when he said this, he looked like a leader of a slave hunting team and more like a Zhao cavalry general.

He seemed to be enjoying the feeling.

Li Mu hummed noncommittally, then waved his hand towards Yiqu Sheng, and said, "Very well, just deal with it according to the usual practice."

Li Mu actually didn't care much about these captives.

After all, he had reached an agreement with Lu Buwei when he was in Xianyang City, and Zhao Guo would send officials to deal with the captives properly with the merchants of the Lu family.

Now the food in Zhao Jun's camp is also limited, and it is impossible to feed these idlers. The best choice is to send the captives away to build the city as soon as possible.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the plan to build a new city in the Hexi Corridor required a large number of laborers, and at the same time required a certain amount of time to find out the whereabouts of Yi Qubo, Li Mu would really be too lazy to stay here for so long.

After all, Zhao Jun's logistics methods are limited, so Li Mu can only take the initiative to attack after confirming Yi Qubo's whereabouts, so that he can find Yi Qubo before the supplies are exhausted.

As long as Yi Qubo is defeated, the cattle, sheep, etc. that Yi Qubo took away will fall into Li Mu's hands, and then there is no need to worry about the supply problem.

After thinking for a while, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Yi Qusheng in front of him: "Go down later and let your soldiers get ready, we will set off tomorrow."

"Let's go?" Yi Qusheng was refreshed when he heard the words, and immediately asked: "Great Governor, have you found Yi Qubo's trace?"

For Yi Qubo, the traitor brother, Yi Qusheng can be said to hate him very much.

If it weren't for the rebellion launched by Yiqu Bo and Yiqu Lie, Yiqu Sheng would still be able to be his own Yiqu King in Yiqu City.

Although it is not a very bad choice for Yiqu Sheng to be the Lord Yiqu of the Zhao Kingdom, but no matter what, being a courtier for others is not as comfortable as being a king yourself, isn't it?

Therefore, it is not surprising that Yi Qusheng himself wanted to kill Yi Qubo to death.

Looking at Yi Qusheng's appearance, Li Mu couldn't help but shook his head, with a smile on his face: "Yes, we have indeed found the trace of Yi Qubo. Remember to prepare well, this time you were caught by Zhao Kuo. The general was kicked out, and if the battle is not fought well, the governor will not be able to explain it in front of the king."

Yi Qusheng's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at Li Mu subconsciously, and sure enough, he found that the expression on Li Mu's face was quite strange, and the half-smile seemed to have a deep meaning.

Yi Qusheng seemed to understand something at once, and immediately puffed up his chest: "Please rest assured, the governor, this time will definitely not disappoint the governor!"

The information Li Mu got was correct. Yiqu Bo and some of the Yiqu people led by him were indeed on the edge of the West Sea at this moment.

Many camps are set up on the green grassland, adding different colors to the grassland.

Cows and sheep roamed freely outside the camp, horses were speeding through, and the boys on the horses kept doing various actions, hoping to win the favor of those red-cheeked girls.

Yi Qubo was in a very good mood, his whole body exuded a strong smell of wine, and beside him were two plump women who only wore a fur, which was exactly the perfect complement to wine and beauty.

In fact, it’s not just Yiqubo, there are about a dozen leaders of Yiqu Kingdom and Qiang people in the whole hall. These Qiang people are basically from Huangzhong Qiang and Cizhi Qiang. Accompanied by two women, many people even couldn't wait to hug the woman beside them into their arms, and began to frivolously frivolously.

A leader of the Qiang people who seemed to be [-]% drunk stood up shakyly, and said to Yi Qubo: "My lord, are the Zhao people really so scary this time? Could it be that the king's wealth, Can’t even be exchanged for weapons to defeat the Zhao people?”

In order to win over these Qiang people, Yi Qubo actually spent a lot of money.

It's just that what Yi Qubo paid was not gold, silver and jewelry, because these things are not of much use on the grassland.

What Yi Qubo paid was cattle, sheep and women, and of course the promise of a fat pasture.

After paying these things, Yiqubo was able to successfully win over several nearby Qiang tribes, and then defeated several other Qiang tribes together, and successfully included the eastern half of the West Sea into his own territory. .

After hearing the question from the leader of the Qiang people, Yi Qubo couldn't help laughing, and said: "Everyone, the Zhao people are actually nothing to be afraid of. The only thing that will cause us trouble is a group of armored cavalry The cavalry army, as long as you avoid this cavalry army, then the Zhao people are no different from us."

After all, Yi Qubo is a person who has really seen the power of armored cavalry, so he will never take this unit lightly.

As for things like Zhentianlei, because Yi Qubo ran very fast, he hadn't had time to experience the power of Zhentianlei, and he didn't know anything about Zhentianlei's improved grenade.

The leader of the Qiang people laughed when he heard the words: "Please don't worry, generous king, we are the warriors of the West Sea. The aquatic plants here have nurtured us, and the sky and earth here have given us a strong body and fighting power. If the Zhao people really If you dare to come here, then we will definitely help you defeat them and let them know that this place will always belong to our Qiang people!"

As soon as the leader of the Qiang people finished speaking, the other leaders of the Qiang people immediately clamored loudly, each of them seemed quite excited.

For these Qiang people, people from Qin and Zhao are just floating clouds. They are very simple and stubborn, thinking that they are the best and most powerful cavalry in this land.

Yi Qubo laughed and raised the wine glass in his hand: "In that case, let's drink this glass to the brim and celebrate the bright future together!"

Chapter 883 Conquering the Qiang People (Second Change)

That night, Xian Shan came to Li Mu's tent to ask for an audience.

"What's the matter with you?" Li Mu looked at Xian Shan in front of him with some surprise.

This Xiongnu Shanyu has always been very low-key since he led his army to join the Zhao army in this war. It is really unexpected that he took the initiative to ask for a meeting this time.
