The arrival of Wang Jian is undoubtedly a big trouble for Li Mu.

Wang Jian himself is actually not a big trouble, the real trouble lies in the 100,000 Qin troops brought by Wang Qian.

Regarding this information, Yi Qusheng almost immediately expressed his opinion: "Isn't it just 100,000 Qin people? Let's wait here for the arrival of these Qin people, and then defeat them! ”

"Nonsense!" Li Mu shook his head and directly rejected Yiqu Sheng's reckless suggestion.

Fighting a war depends on the brain, and if you are as reckless as Yiqu Sheng every time, then defeat is a matter of time.

After scolding Yiqu Sheng, Li Mu looked around at the generals present and found that everyone was not afraid of the large number of enemies, on the contrary, their faces were full of fiery fighting intent.

Tu Xian said to Li Mu very excitedly: "The Metropolitan Governor is a person with the protection of the gods, as long as the gods can bring disasters to the people of Qin, then even if there are more people of Qin, we will definitely be able to defeat them!" ”

Li Mu was dumbfounded, and then he understood where the confidence of his subordinates came from.

Feelings: They don't believe in themselves, but believe in the earth-shattering thunder!

Li Mu was suddenly a little unhappy.

But soon Li Mu suppressed this strange emotion in his heart, shook his head and said in a deep voice: "First of all, I want to reiterate to you and the others, the heaven-shaking thunder is not a heavenly punishment, but a weapon. A weapon that is the same as the armor, bows, spears, and even the eight-bull crossbow of the infantry that we usually use for armored cavalry, a weapon that can play a role against the Zhao State, and can help us defeat powerful enemies, understand? ”

As soon as Li Mu's words came out, the faces of the generals were still a little disbelieving, but looking at Li Mu's very serious expression, the feeling of disbelief slowly subsided.

has been messing with Li Mu for so many years, and everyone knows that Li Mu may occasionally joke, but when he says something so seriously, these words must be very reliable and true.

Li Mu continued: "Since the Heaven-Shaking Thunder is a weapon, then it must be consumed. I don't want to hide it from you, this Yiqu City alone has already caused the existing Sky Shaking Thunder in the army to be consumed very seriously, so if you face another 100,000 Qin State army, then these Sky Shaking Thunder will not be able to support such consumption at all, so it is impossible to rely on the power of the Sky Shaking Thunder to fight the Qin army this time, understand? ”

Li Mudu said this, where did several generals of Zhao State still not understand the truth? So both of them nodded.

This kind of news was obviously not something they wanted to hear for these Zhao generals, so the atmosphere suddenly became a little dull.

Yiqu Sheng was the most straightforward among the people present, so he immediately frowned after learning that he couldn't completely rely on the Heaven-Shaking Thunder to defeat the Qin State, but immediately stretched out again: "But the Grand Duke, even if we can't use the Heaven-Shaking Thunder to defeat the Qin Army, we can also use the armored cavalry to defeat the Qin State!"

Yiqu Sheng's words were immediately recognized by all the generals present.

To be honest, before this, who knew what the earth-shattering thunder was, what made these Zhao generals most confident was actually the armored cavalry from the Zhao army, or the invincible border cavalry regiment of the Zhao army.

But for Yiqusheng's words, Li Mu was silent for a while and still chose to refuse: "No, this is too risky." ”

If at this moment, Li Mu is holding a cavalry corps of 20,000 cavalry composed entirely of the most elite cavalry in the Zhao State Border Cavalry Legion, then Li Mu really wants to try the weight of this Wang Qian, the young generation of the Qin State's main general.

But the problem is that among the 20,000 people in Li Mu's hands at the moment, there are 8,000 Hun cavalry, which undoubtedly reduces the combat effectiveness of the entire army a lot.

This is not to say that these Huns are not brave enough to fight, or that they are not good enough on horseback, the real problem is that these Hun cavalry does not meet Li Mu's requirements.

The Hun cavalry never had any concept of an army in their hearts, and the battle had always been chaotic, and they rushed directly with their own generals, shooting blindly and then rushing blindly, and those with their heads and brains covered fought the battle, and there was no discipline at all.

Discipline is a very important thing, in history, the pioneer of the Xiongnu Empire, Mao Dunshan was able to rise rapidly in a short period of time and eventually become a super empire that can confront the Han Empire.

But the current Xiongnu are not the Huns in the history of Maodun, and these Huns in Li Mu's hands are not the Hun cavalry organized and probable under Maotun, and it is actually not easy to train such a chaotic army, at least now Li Mu has not seen the hope of success.

Under such circumstances, Li Mu did not feel that he could rely on the remaining cavalry troops of the early 10,000s to confront the 100,000 Qin army led by Wang Qian.

What's more, Wang Jian must have already known that he was going to confront Li Mu when he sent troops this time, so as long as Wang Jian was not stupid, he would definitely target Li Mu's cavalry.

Unfortunately, since Li Mu had never had any experience in confronting Wang Qian, and he didn't have any examples of Wang Jian leading his troops against cavalry alone, Li Mu had no idea what kind of tactics Wang Jian might use.

In such a situation where it is impossible to "know the enemy", rashly fighting a war in which the enemy is outnumbered, there will be no other result except for the word defeat.

Li Mu made a decision very calmly: "The troops of the Qin people will have at least six days to reach here, so I ask you to complete the rest and recuperation within four days, and take everything in the city as much as possible, including wealth, materials and people." On the fifth day, the people of the Qin State will retreat directly to the north and retreat to Shuofang, leaving the empty shell of this Yiqu City to the Qin people. ”

As soon as Li Mu's words came out, all the generals of Zhao State present were immediately stunned.

Yi Qusheng's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but speak: "Dadu Governor, I heard it right, we are going to retreat?" ”

Li Mu glanced at Yiqu Sheng and said, "Yes, now that the Qin State is powerful, of course we must retreat first." After returning to Shuofang County to replenish the soldiers, horses, and grain and grass, it is time to act again. ”

After a pause, Li Mu glanced at the several generals present with extremely sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "What, does anyone have an opinion on the decision of the governor of Pontus?" ”

Li Mu's eyes swept over, and everyone immediately lowered their heads, and no one dared to refute.

To tell the truth, after experiencing such victories one after another, Li Mu's prestige among the border cavalry regiment has completely reached its peak, to a point where others dare not think of it, if you have to find an example, then it is like Zhao Dan's lofty prestige among the people of Zhao State.

In such a situation, who dares to oppose Li Mu's words, isn't that tired and crooked?

And this kind of performance is not only limited to Zhao **, but even for the eight thousand cavalry of the Huns who have just been annexed.

In addition to the prestige that Li Mu has played over the years, another very important factor is the "earth-shattering thunder" when he just conquered Yiqu City.

The appearance of the earth-shattering thunder made all the Hun cavalry think that it was the divine punishment of Yiqu City from God in order to help Li Mu, and the people on the grassland were very superstitious, so after learning that Li Mu was actually protected by the gods, then in their hearts, Li Mu naturally became the spokesperson of the gods.

Just imagine, how dare a Hun soldier whose mind is full of superstitious thoughts dare to oppose the spokesman of the god he has in his heart?

Therefore, Li Mu's order was almost immediately implemented to the greatest extent, and the remaining more than 10,000 cavalry of the Zhao army after this battle almost immediately launched a vigorous raid on the entire Yiqu City, loaded all the wealth and resources in the Yiqu City, and began to transport batches to the Zhao land in the north.

In addition, batches of Yiqu City population also began to retreat north with these wealth and materials, although the remaining population in the city is only thirty or forty thousand people, but Li Mu does not intend to leave these people to the Qin people, anyway, there is Yiqu Sheng, the "first king", and Li Mu has a way to recover these Yiqu people.

Thanks to the strong cooperation of Yiqu Sheng, the entire looting operation was carried out extremely smoothly and quickly, and after only three days, the entire Yiqu City had basically become an empty city.

Almost all of the valuables that could be taken away were removed, leaving only a few that were impossible to transport in a vehicle.

But even so, in Yiqusheng's words, this is really cheap for the Qin people.

To be honest, Yiqu City's mood is actually not too good.

After all, for a long time, Yiqusheng's dream has always been to build a splendid palace of his own Yiqu King, but now this dream has been ruthlessly shattered by reality, and even Yiqusheng himself has to break and destroy this dream with his own hands, which is obviously something that makes Yiqusheng very difficult to accept.

Li Mu obviously discovered this idea of Yiqusheng, so when he left, he specially patted Yiqusheng, who had been turning back, and said to Yiqusheng very seriously: "Don't worry, it won't be long before we will return here again, and when this place is recovered, I will present a table to the king and ask him to canonize this city as your fief." ”

Hearing this, Yiqu Sheng glanced at Li Mu very gratefully, and said from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you, Governor." ”

You must know that generally speaking, it is impossible for a surrendered monarch like Yiqusheng to put the fief on the original land, and Li Mu can guarantee Yiqusheng in this way, which is actually a big deal to do.

And for an out-and-out high-ranking official of Zhao like Li Mu, this kind of favor can actually be said to be very precious.

Thinking of this, Yi Qusheng was suddenly relieved again.

Yes, he had lost his country, lost an opportunity to make himself king, but now he was part of an even more powerful country, and even had the protection and support of the strongest people in the country.

In that case, what else is he unhappy about?

Yiqu Sheng took a deep look at Yiqu City in the sun, then pulled the reins hard, and then turned the horse away.

Yiqu Kingdom may be over, but the story of Yiqu is not over yet.

This city may temporarily belong to the Qin State, but one day, I, Yiqu Sheng, will fight back again!
