Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

There is actually another reason why Mr. Pingyuan's followers work so hard, and that is the "cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots" proposed by Mr. Pingyang.

It was precisely because of the news that Mr. Pingyuan's disciples panicked and could only choose to fight to the death. Instead, they played the effect that the underdogs would win, defeating the city guards who were not prepared for the intensity of the battle.

If Zhao Kuo's policy of "just punish the chief and the evil and ignore others" is followed, then most of Lord Pingyuan's disciples will inevitably surrender directly.

Now that this defeat has been won, Mr. Pingyang has to bear the biggest blame.

Pingyang Jun obviously understood Zhao Kuo's meaning, and his old face couldn't help but blush.

But at this time, it is absolutely impossible to convince Pingyang Jun.

Zhao Wang has not announced the candidate for Xiangbang so far, isn't it because he is still hesitating about who Pingyangjun and Zhao Kuo should choose?

Lord Pingyang must fight and let King Zhao know his importance!Thinking of this, Lord Pingyang gritted his teeth and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, there are also some retainers in the minister's mansion. It is better to let the retainers of the minister also join in this war. The retainers of the minister also have some combat power, and they will definitely be able to kill the traitors." Take down those disciples of Zhao Sheng!"

At this point, Mr. Pingyang didn't even say "brother".

King Zhao hesitated when he heard the words.

Zhao Wang is not stupid, this time the failure seems to be the problem of Handan Commander Zhou Shaoliang, but after careful consideration, it is obviously caused by Pingyang Lord's strategy of killing everything.

Since Lord Pingyang has failed once, should he continue to trust him?

After thinking about it, King Zhao turned his attention to Zhao Kuo again.

"Wu Xinjun, you are the most famous general in Dazhao, what do you think about this matter?"

King Zhao still decided to listen to Zhao Kuo's opinion, after all, Zhao Kuo was good at fighting.

Zhao Kuo smiled slightly, and said, "I report to Your Majesty, I think this matter is relatively easy to resolve.

Lord Pingyuan's disciples are nothing more than a group of stragglers without any organization or discipline. Although they won a game by taking advantage of the city guard's inattention, as long as the king is willing to let a person recommended by the minister lead the army, the minister guarantees that the city will The guards are definitely enough to defeat Lord Pingyuan's followers! "

King Zhao was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"

Zhao Kuo said sternly: "That is Li Mu, the commander of the Chi You Army, the minister's retainer! All you need is for the king to hand over the command of the city guards to Li Mu, then Li Mu will be able to pacify Lord Pingyuan's mansion before dawn!"

To deal with a mere group of diners, Zhao Kuo certainly couldn't go out in person, killing chickens with a sledgehammer.

Therefore, Li Mu is the best choice.

After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, Lord Pingyang hurriedly said: "No! The City Guard is the only armed force in Handan except for the Miyagi Imperial Guard. How can it be easily handed over to a retainer?"

Mr. Pingyang's meaning is also very simple, I made it clear that I don't trust you, Zhao Kuo!Anyway, everyone is just a short-term cooperation. Needless to say, the future political arena of Zhao State will be the world where Pingyang Jun and Zhao Kuo are fighting for hegemony.

So why not start now?

After hearing Pingyang Jun's words, King Zhao suddenly became entangled again.

Zhao Kuo smiled calmly and did not speak.

Anyway, in the current situation, Mr. Pingyuan's thousands of followers will definitely not be able to shake the overall situation.

If the trouble continues, King Zhao and Lord Pingyang will lose face, and it has nothing to do with Zhao Kuo.

Then, Mr. Pingyang suddenly found out embarrassingly that Zhao Kuo had already made a move, but Zhao Kuo refused to accept it. The feeling of the air.

Seeing Jun Pingyang's deflated face, Zhao Wang also began to recover.

The problem is actually very simple. If Zhao Kuo is allowed to take action, then military power must be given.

If Zhao Kuo is not allowed to take action, the problem will not be solved.

So King Zhao made up his mind and said, "Mr. Wu Xin, I canonize Li Mu as General of Handan, and let someone tell Handan to order Zhou Shaoliang to hand over the military talisman to Li Mu!"

King Zhao made a decision, and Zhao Kuo immediately showed a smile on his face, and said to King Zhao, "please rest assured, Li Mu will not disappoint the king!"

On the other side, Mr. Pingyang wanted to object, but with the lesson just now, after hesitating for a while, he had no choice but to shut his mouth, feeling annoyed in his heart.

This time, Zhao Kuo actually stole the limelight again!

Chapter 710 Breaking through the mansion, post-war matters

Outside the city of Handan, Chi You's army camp.

At this moment, the Chi You Army camp was already brightly lit, and the [-] Chi You Army soldiers had assembled early, waiting nervously.

The direction that everyone focused most on was Handan not far away. The whole Handan was already in flames. Even if it was far outside the city, the shouts of killing could still be clearly heard from the Chi You army camp.

Li Mu smacked his mouth and said, "The battle in Handan City looks fierce."

Beside Li Mu were several generals of the Chi You Army and dozens of officers. Hearing this, someone said worriedly: "General, the Lord and Madam are all right in the city, aren't they?"

Li Mu smiled calmly and said, "What's the problem?

The lord should be in charge of the overall situation in the palace at this moment. As for the lady and the mansion, there are a thousand of us escorting the mansion, which is absolutely safe. "

In Li Mu's view, one thousand Chi You cavalry is worth at least five thousand Zhao's ordinary regular troops!That being said, Li Mu was actually not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

On the one hand, Li Mu is actually very eager to have the opportunity to play.

On the other hand, Li Mu was also worried that something might happen!Thinking of this, Li Mu also sighed with some regret.

It would be great if the lord could follow my advice and just let Chi Youjun rush into the city and kill him.

At this moment, there was the sound of horseshoes approaching the barracks in the darkness, followed by scouts from Chi You's army and asked sharply, "Who is it?

Show your identity, or you will shoot arrows! "

In the darkness, a voice came: "This old man is Xu Li, the governor of Wu Xinjun's family, who was ordered to find General Li Mu!"

Li Mu naturally recognized Xu Li's voice, and hurriedly said, "Quick, let people in!"

A moment later, Xu Li appeared in front of Li Mu.

Li Mu couldn't wait to ask: "Master Xu Li, how is the situation in Handan City?"

Xu Li chuckled, and put a soldier talisman into Li Mu's hand: "You are now the General of Handan appointed by the king, you will immediately follow me into the city to take over the city guard army, and we are going to encircle and suppress Pingyuan Lord Zhao Sheng." For the stubborn retainers in the mansion, let's talk about the details on the way.

By the way, Chi You's army didn't move out this time, and they all stayed in the camp to wait for orders! "

This is also Zhao Kuo's order. It is no problem to dispatch the army, but my Zhao Kuo army must not be dispatched, and we must not get the impression of "participating in the civil war".

As for the city guards and imperial guards, anyway, they are all the troops of King Zhao and the State of Zhao, and they like to beat life and death casually.

Li Mu was overjoyed at first, but then a little disappointed.

Of course, he was overjoyed because he was finally able to appear on the stage, but disappointed because Chi Youjun still couldn't play this time.

But soon, Li Mu regained his composure and said to Xu Li, "Let's go, let's go!"

Before Li Mu left, of course he did not forget to instruct his subordinates of the Chi You Army to continue waiting for orders in the barracks, but they don't need to be as tense as before. After all, it seems that the whole situation should be They are all under the control of Zhao Kuo.

On the way of galloping his horse, Li Mu finally figured out the current situation in Handan City.

"How can a mere 3000 disciples be able to directly defeat the Chongwei Army?"

When Li heard this fact, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, and almost lost control of the horse under his crotch.

Xu Li laughed, and said to Li Mu: "Yes, if it wasn't like this, there really wouldn't be a chance for you to appear on stage?"

Li Mu rode his horse and galloped silently for a while, then suddenly said: "If Chen Weijun only has this level, then I only need 2000 Chi You troops to defeat them cleanly."

The expression on Xu Li's face flickered slightly, and he said to Li Mu: "Although the lord has never wanted us to do this, I can tell you something today.

After tonight, you should indeed construct a plan in your mind that may enter Handan City in the future, you should understand what I mean. "

Li Mu's expression suddenly lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help laughing while sitting on the horse.

"do you know?

Xu Li's housekeeper, this is the sentence I am most happy to hear tonight! "

The two smiled at each other.

Sometimes the tacit understanding between the courtiers does not necessarily need to be known to the lord.

After a while, Li Mu walked into the lobby of the Handan Order unceremoniously, and said loudly: "Where is the Handan Order?

Hand over my soldiers and horses! "

For Li Mu, if a mere 3000 stragglers can still defeat him, wouldn't all his art of war for so many years be in vain?

After another half an hour, Li Mu looked at the heavily guarded Pingyuan Mansion in front of him, showing a very cruel smile.

"So in Lord Pingyuan's mansion, not only have the number of diners not decreased, but there are even more of them than before, right?"

Beside Li Mu, an officer of the City Guard Army nodded dumbfoundingly and said, "It's General Li Mu, these retainers have actually run away a lot before, but after they heard that the retainers in Lord Pingyuan's mansion actually got After a victory, another group ran back.

There were quite a few people yelling and shouting just now, saying that they wanted to live and die with Mr. Yuan's mansion. "

Li Mu laughed nonchalantly, and said, "What a coincidence, they coincide with me on this point.

Come on, let's start launching rockets. "

Of course, this rocket is not the rocket that can go to the sky in later generations, but a burning arrow with kerosene on the arrow.

This action of Li Mu directly stunned the officer of the City Guard present, and hurriedly said: "General Li Mu, this is Lord Pingyuan's mansion!"

Li Mu shook his head, and said calmly and coldly, "From tonight onwards, Da Zhao will no longer have a place for Mr. Pingyuan."

In the next moment, countless rockets swished into Mr. Pingyuan's mansion, which quickly ignited the mansion and plunged it into a raging sea of ​​flames.

The retainers in the mansion immediately panicked and opened all the doors of the mansion to flee.

And Li Mu didn't even need to expend any effort, and directly led the army outside to capture and kill these completely chaotic disciples one by one.

Half an hour later, although the fire in Mr. Pingyuan's mansion had not been extinguished, the battle in this mansion was completely over.

Li Mu even paid the price of less than ten deaths, and successfully ended this battle that everyone thought would be very fierce!

Chapter 711 This wave can't make Mr. Pingyang earn money

Handan Palace.

Zhao Wang was a little restless, and he had to look up at the sky outside the hall every once in a while.

The sky was getting brighter, but for King Zhao, there was still an important matter that had not been resolved, and that was the siege of the Pingyuan Lord's mansion.

Finally seeing the dawn light in the sky, King Zhao couldn't help but open his mouth and said to Zhao Kuo, who had been sitting beside the old god and didn't know whether he was closing his eyes and recuperating, or had really fallen asleep: "Mr. How is the mansion now?"

Zhao Kuo opened his eyes when he heard this, and smiled at King Zhao: "I don't know about the matter that the king asked, and I can only know the real situation when the information from outside comes.

But please don't worry, Your Majesty, I think Li Mu has absolutely nothing wrong with it. "

Opposite to Zhao Kuo, Mr. Pingyang, who also stayed up all night but was still in good spirits, couldn't help but said: "Mr. Wu Xin, you said at the beginning that Li Mu's success must be achieved immediately, but now it's been a long time. One night passed, but there was no news at all.

Let me tell you, that Li Mu of yours must have been utterly bewildered by those retainers of Lord Pingyuan, and is still staring at the courtyard wall of Lord Pingyuan's mansion! "

Although there was no news from Li Mu's side, news from other places kept coming.

In general, most of the entire Handan City has been completely controlled by the faction of King Zhao, so it can be said that the overall situation has been decided.

As long as the group of retainers in Pingyuan Jun's mansion can be wiped out, then there will no longer be any force in Handan City that can stand up against King Zhao and Zhao Kuo at this time.

This is why King Zhao is so concerned about this battle, which is a very crucial final battle.

If it is impossible to completely wipe out Lord Pingyuan's retainer army, if there is another disturbance, it will be really troublesome.

Zhao Kuo looked at the anxious King Zhao, feeling a little speechless in his heart.

Of course, Zhao Kuo knew Li Mu's level clearly. If even Li Mu could not deal with Lord Pingyuan's thousands of stragglers and rogue followers, then these thousands of followers must have traveled through time, right?

At this time, the eunuch Ling appeared in a hurry.

He walked into the main hall, cupped his hands towards King Zhao, and said with an unconcealable smile on his face: "Congratulations to King Hexi, the good news I just received from Lord Pingyuan's mansion, the entire battle in Lord Pingyuan's mansion is completely complete it's over.

Those retainers who were still resisting had all been captured, a total of more than 4000 people.

In addition, most of Mr. Pingyuan's family and children have been controlled, and some have escaped and hidden. Handan Commander Zhou Shaoliang is now hunting them down with all his strength. "

After Zhao Wang heard these words, his whole body was refreshed immediately, and he smiled and said, "Okay, that's really great, Mr. Wu Xin, your retainer Li Mu is really useful, very useful!"

Zhao Kuo chuckled, and said to King Zhao: "Chen has been teaching Li Mu to serve the King all these years, and now Li Mu has got a chance to truly serve the King, so he must be very happy."

The reason why Zhao Kuo specifically said this was also very simple, just to say a few good words so that King Zhao could reward Li Mu more.

Sure enough, the next moment, the smile on Zhao Wang's face suddenly became more intense, and he said to Zhao Kuo with a smile: "I know that Mr. Wu Xin, you have a group of loyal ministers.

Come on, pass on the order, starting from today Li Mu's title will be promoted by two ranks! "

Zhao Wang actually didn't know much about Li Mu before, but he also knew that Li Mu was certainly not a high-ranking official, so he was very generous with his words, and he was promoted two levels when he came up.

Jun Pingyang watched this scene from the sidelines, feeling rather uncomfortable in his heart.
