Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Zhao Kuo immediately understood Le Qi's intentions, and couldn't help sighing: "This stupid act of grabbing credit!" There was a loud bang, and someone slapped the table, but it wasn't Zhao Kuo, but Li Mu.

Li Mu was almost yelling: "Le Qi, this damn thing, how dare he let so many soldiers of Great Zhao go to failure and death for personal political gain?"

Looking at Li Mu, who was blushing and extremely angry, Zhao Kuo was silent for a moment, then patted the subordinate on the shoulder: "Not everyone is like us, who think wholeheartedly for this country.

For many people, their political interests are far more important than national interests.

Benhou can understand your anger, but Benhou hopes that you can restrain such anger.

You gotta get out of the rage because we gotta fix what was wrong with Lucky, get it?

If you are completely dominated by anger, then we will only make the same mistakes as Leqi"

Under Zhao Kuo's persuasion, Li Mu gradually calmed down.

After a while, Li Mu stood up and bowed respectfully to Zhao Kuo: "Thank you for your guidance, my lord, I understand."

Zhao Kuo smiled: "Go back, have a good rest, and prepare for our journey of revenge."

After Li Mu left, Xu Li said worriedly: "My lord, the failure of Le Qi and others this time has left our troops seriously short."

Originally, after the reunion of Le Qi's troops and Zhao Kuo, more than 1 cavalry could easily crush the Huns, but now due to Le Qi's stupidity, Zhao Kuo only has [-] Chi You troops available.

On the opposite side of Zhao Kuo, the combined strength of the four Xiongnu troops exceeded [-] cavalry. Facing Xu Li's worries, Zhao Kuo's face was very calm.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Uncle Xu, you immediately help me draft a memorial and go back to Handan, saying that Le Cheng and Lian Po deliberately instigated Le Qi and Lian Jing to violate the military order, and demanded that the Queen Mother punish them severely. "

It is necessary to pursue responsibility. Le Qi and Lian Jing let tens of thousands of Zhao soldiers die for their own selfishness. It cannot be just the intention of these two people behind this.

Moreover, Zhao Kuo must also express an attitude. If every time Zhao Kuo goes to war in the future, the generals under his command will make their own decisions because of such factors, how can this battle be fought?

Zhao Kuo said coldly: "We must use the most severe words to let the people behind Leqi and Lian Jing know that they have crossed the line, and then let Xuegong and Nightingale Handan branch make a difference. Everyone knows it in the shortest possible time.”

Zhao Kuo was really angry.

You have an opinion on Benhou, that's fine.

You want to use military exploits to decorate your victory. Although this Marquis doesn't like it, he can barely understand you.

But, at least you have to win this battle, even if you win the battle, there are quite a lot of ideas every day, it’s just that.

The good-for-nothing Xu Li responded to Zhao Kuo's order, and said, "My lord, what about the military strength?"

Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said, "The soldiers and horses from Jinyang and Dai Commanderies should also be here, right?"

Xu Li said: "That's true, but the total number of soldiers and horses in these two counties is only about [-] cavalry."

Zhao Kuo laughed heartily: "Five thousand cavalry?

Adding Chi You's army is 7000 people, which is enough.

We can arrive in Pingyin tomorrow, right?

Don't worry, the Huns will pay for their sins. "

Outside Pingyin City, the Huns camped.

Accompanied by the arrival of more than 5000 soldiers and horses of the Tongda clan, the four chief patriarchs of the entire Xiongnu were all present.

A banquet is being held in a large tent in the camp.

Due to his achievements in defeating Zhao Guo, the clan chief of the Lan clan naturally sat at the top of the throne, and his voice was also the loudest.

"My lord, this time we have defeated the main force of the Zhao Kingdom's frontier cavalry army. In the next few years, the northern border of Zhao Kingdom will become a ranch for our Hun men to ride their horses. Come and have a drink with me."

As he spoke, the head of the Lan clan smiled and raised the wine bar in his hand.

The big tent was filled with a happy atmosphere, and many generals of the Xiongnu booed one after another, and drank the fine wine in their hands.

The patriarch of the Lan clan drank a few cups in a row, feeling relieved, suddenly his eyes fell on the patriarch of the Shuda clan not far away, and he said with a smile: "Patriarch Tongda, you seem to be in a bad mood today, is it because of you? Clan's failure in Dai County?"

Patriarch Lan's voice was extremely loud and instantly spread throughout the entire tent, causing everyone in the tent to look at the patriarch of the Tongda clan.

As an old Xiongnu tribe, the Lan family has never been very fond of the Tongda family.

This time, the other three tribes were all looting in the two counties of Yunzhong in Yanmen, but the Suoda clan went south to Dai County by themselves, which undoubtedly made the patriarch of the Lan clan even more dissatisfied.

Faced with the questioning from the Lan clan leader, the Shuda clan leader froze for a moment, then showed a wry smile, and said, "To tell the truth, the Lan clan leader, I was really thinking about the war with Zhao Guowu Xinjun's troops in the past few days.

Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo is indeed a very powerful general, maybe we should evacuate from the territory of Zhao State now, and we can't continue to besiege Pingyin City. "

Chapter 564 How Much Better Can Zhao Kuo Be Than Le Qi and Lian Jing

As soon as the patriarch of the Suoda clan finished speaking, there was a sudden silence in the hall.

A few seconds later, the laughter of the clan leader of the Lan clan spread to everyone's eardrums: "Clan leader, did you get beaten up by the Zhao people?

Oh, that's right, after all, you, the Wuda family, were wiped out by Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo for a total of two thousand cavalry! "

The patriarch of the Suoda clan frowned and said: "Patriarch Lan, pay attention to your attitude! Although our Suoda clan lost 2000 people, if there was no delay from our Shuda clan, Zhao Guowu Xinjun's army would have already killed this city. in front of you."

The head of the Lan clan sneered, "Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo?

How much better can he be than Le Qi?

Le Qi has already died at the hands of the patriarch, maybe in a few days it will be the death date of Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo! "

The patriarch of the Suojia clan suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Patriarch Lan, Le Qi is just a very ordinary general in the Zhao Kingdom, and his talent cannot be compared with Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo at all! If we see Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo's talent only realized how terrible he was later, and by then it was too late to retreat."

The clan leader of the Lan clan laughed loudly and said, "Why, clan leader Luan Dian, this is why you want to be a deserter?

Patriarch Xubu, Patriarch Huyan, don't you want to express your opinion?

Or do you two also think it's a good idea to run away in embarrassment at this time? "

Facing the inquiry from the head of the Lan clan, the two heads of the Xubu clan and the Huyan clan hesitated for a moment, and each gave a reply.

The head of the Xubu clan said: "It's been so many days since the siege of Pingyin City. If you work hard, you should be able to take it down. It's better not to withdraw your troops yet."

The head of the Huyan clan also said: "Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo may indeed be very strong, but we now have a full 1 cavalry, and it is said that he only has more than [-] soldiers and horses in his hands. No matter what, we can retreat completely. .”

Choosing between the head of the Lan clan who just led the Huns to win a victory by beheading [-] people, and the head of the Zongda clan who had just been killed by the Zhao people by [-] subordinates, it is obvious that the leader of the Lan clan who is the victor will be more supported that side.

Hearing the answers of the two patriarchs, the patriarch of the Lan clan became more and more happy, and continued to taunt: "How about it, respected patriarch, are you still planning to stick to your escape route now?

By the way, don't forget my reminder, if you choose to escape at this time, it will be a betrayal of hundreds of tribes of our Huns, and you should know the consequences! "

The head of the Suojia clan, with a face as heavy as water, stood up with a bang, and left without looking back.

Behind him, the laughter of the clan chief of the Lan clan became more piercing.

"Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo?

If he hadn't started fighting with Le Cheng, the patriarch might still have taken these so-called famous Central Plains generals seriously.

but now?

Hahahaha" Finally, after many days of trekking, Zhao Kuo gathered two emergency reinforcements from Jinyang and Daijun, and led a total of 7000 troops to the outside of Pingyin City.

Seeing the disorderly and chaotic Huns camp outside Pingyin City, Zhao Kuo's brows relaxed a lot.

At least the Huns have not yet broken through Pingyin City.

Although the raids and rampages of the Huns caused many disturbances and casualties to the northern counties of Zhao State, so far, none of the northern counties with a population of more than [-] has actually been breached by the Huns.

Once Pingyin City, a big city like the county government, is breached, things will explode.

The Huns had obviously noticed the arrival of the Zhao army, and did not carry out any siege. Instead, they gathered a large group of cavalry on the plain outside the city, posing as if they were ready to go to war at any time.

But the next moment, when Zhao Kuo's eyes swept across the city, his face suddenly became gloomy.

On a plain about two miles away from Pingyin City, there are many wooden stakes, each of which has a corpse pierced through it. Judging from the armor on the corpse, it is obviously the corpse of the soldiers of the Zhao army. .

Thousands of corpses lined up along the plain for several miles, giving people a strong visual impact when they came into view.

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath, his expression became extremely cold, and he muttered to himself coldly.

"These Huns really deserve to die."

Such an obvious scene, of course, cannot be the only one seeing Zhao Kuo.

All the soldiers of the Zhao army were in a commotion seeing this scene, and their angry emotions kept colliding and fermenting in their hearts, almost erupting like a volcano.

Li Mu couldn't help it even more, and said directly: "My lord, please let me go charge and kill, let these Huns know how powerful the generals of Zhao are!"

Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said lightly: "Go, I will give you two thousand cavalry."

Li Mu was overjoyed immediately, and led two thousand cavalry, galloping towards the row of wooden posts outside the city like sharp arrows.

Zhao Kuo quietly watched the figure of Li Mu's cavalry.

It is true that the Zhao army came from a long distance, but the Huns stationed troops here to wait for work. It is really not good for the Zhao army to start a war at this time.

But it is not always the case in this world that can only be considered with cold military strategies and tactics.

In the final analysis, it is people who fight wars, not machines.

It is impossible for Zhao Kuo to watch so many Zhao Jun soldiers being brutally killed in the wild and remain indifferent.

Zhao Kuo gave the order lightly: "If the Huns move, then go to war with them immediately!"

As for the Huns, there was also a small dispute among the four patriarchs at this moment.

The patriarch of the Tongda clan said in a deep voice: "Everyone, Zhao Jun has come from afar, and it is the best time to fight them and defeat them in one fell swoop. Let's go!"

Originally, the clan chief of the Lan clan also wanted to go to war, but after hearing the words of the clan clan chief, he immediately changed his mind.

The patriarch of the Zhuan clan laughed and said, "War?

No, no.

I don't think we need to rush at all.

Don't the Zhao people know that going to war right away is not good for them?

So they must be just collecting the corpses of these poor bastards we killed.

Let them collect the corpses, let all Zhao soldiers see what it would be like to be an enemy of our Great Huns, and let the seeds of fear be deeply planted in their hearts, so that we can fight in the next decisive battle Defeat them more easily! "

Undoubtedly, this time the dispute ended again with the victory of the clan chief of the Lan clan.

So, the Huns were so quiet, watching Li Mu leading two thousand Zhao Jun cavalrymen, one by one untie the Zhao Jun robes they had already killed in battle from the stakes, and kept whistling and loudly canceling.

"Poor and cowardly Zhao people!"

"Woohoo! What a bunch of useless guys!"

"You will become our shepherds sooner or later, understand?"

"Hahahahahaha" Others may not understand, but for Li Mu who once served in Gaoquesai, the words of these Huns penetrated into his heart clearly.

Li Mu's face was condensed, and he gently put the body of a dead robe on his saddle, and said softly: "Don't worry, we will avenge you."

Li Mu stretched out his hand and brushed the face of the young Zhao Jun knight, making him close his dying eyes gently.

Chapter 565 Wu Xinjun does not need us to send troops

This scene outside the violent corpse city made the 7000 people led by Zhao Kuo extremely angry.

Even after camping, this kind of faint anger was inadvertently exuded in everyone's every move, lingering in the air.

Xu Li couldn't help being a little worried: "Master, the morale of the army is a little fluctuating."

Zhao Kuo took another view: "No, Uncle Xu.

This is the real military spirit available!By the way, you send someone to send this order to Pingyin, and show it to Zhang Liang, the governor of Yanmen County. "

Due to the arrival of Zhao Kuo's army, the Huns temporarily released the siege to the south of Pingyin City, making it possible for the two Zhao armies inside and outside the city to communicate.

Later that day, the letter written by Zhao Kuo was delivered to Zhang Liang, the magistrate of Yanmen County in Pingyin City.

The matter was of great importance, so Zhang Liang immediately called a few of his confidants to discuss it.

Zhang Liang said worriedly: "Everyone, Mr. Wu Xin just sent a letter, probably for the upcoming war, what do you think should be done?"

Zhang Liang is not from Zhao Kuo's school. The sheriff of Yanmen County and Yu Xin are good friends. After Yu Xin became Shangqing, he was recommended as the governor of Yanmen County, and then he was promoted to the sheriff step by step.

Although Yu Xin has long been confirmed to have died in the assassination of the Qin people, many people still stubbornly believe that Yu Xin was killed by Zhao Kuo. Zhang Liang is one of them, and he is naturally extremely vigilant against Zhao Kuo.

A confidant with a square face and a thick figure said in a low voice: "Master Wu, you don't need to think about the order of Lord Wu Xin to send troops tomorrow to cooperate with Lord Wu Xin to start a war with the Huns.

How can the Huns be so cruel now? "

Another elderly relative said: "Jun Wu Xin has the right to control the troops of the northern counties this time. If he orders us to leave the city, we cannot refuse."
