Chapter 291: Chang'anjun

After Li Mu and Chief Ada finished their discussions, they immediately asked them to gather 3,000 elite horsemen and follow Ada to attack the Kori tribe.

To deal with a small tribe like Cory, as long as you know the location of the tribe and are familiar with the terrain, the three thousand cavalry can easily sweep it away, and now that the Ada tribe is the leading party, there is naturally no pressure at all.

Li Mu has long been familiar with this kind of thing, and after every war, the Zhao army can capture a lot of loot and population.

Now, without even Li Mu himself, the assigned generals can do things beautifully.

As Li Mu expected, in just over a month, 3,000 cavalry composed of Zhao, Xiongnu, Linhu, and Donghu returned triumphantly, bringing back a large amount of food, money, and prisoners.

"General, most of the people of this Corey tribe are blonde, blue-eyed, white-faced, broad-mouthed, and extremely strong, so it's not easy to deal with!"

When the triumphant generals reported the results of the battle to Li Mu, there was no smugness on their faces, but they looked a little depressed.

According to past experience, the destruction of a small tribe like Cory would basically have no casualties among the three thousand cavalry, but the Zhao army that returned today suffered nearly 100 casualties.

Even if compared to the results of the battle, this casualty was nothing at all, and the commander of the army still felt ashamed.

"Oh? Take me to see it! ”

Li Mu frowned slightly at first, and then became interested, wanting to go and see those captives.

"Report, the Handan envoy asks to see you!"

At that moment, the herald hurried in, and announced loudly, with joy in his tone.

Li Mu's expression moved slightly, and then asked, "Why did the Handan envoy come?" ”

The herald's face flushed, and he said: "The messenger is quite polite, although he did not tell the details, but he also hinted that the king will be entrusted with a heavy task when he transfers the general back to Handan!" ”

Li Mu was deeply loved by the soldiers, and his successive victories pushed his prestige to the peak, and the soldiers revered him.

Because of this, Li Mu's repeated miraculous achievements are still nested in the frontier, and the soldiers are somewhat unhappy about it.

Now that the envoy came to summon Li Mu back to Handan, even this mere herald was happy for Li Mu while not only being reluctant.

"Congratulations General!"

"General Hexi!"

When the rest of the generals heard this, they congratulated one after another, but they were also somewhat worried that after their boss left, Handan would send someone to guard the northern frontier.

Qi State, Linzi, Royal Palace.

After listening to the statement of the envoy of Zhao State, the King of Qi was already a little moved, but he still pretended to hesitate and asked: "What Qin State has done is naturally despised by the people of the world, and the widow is also willing to help Zhao defeat Qin." ”

"However, Qi does not border with the Qin State, even if the Qin State can be destroyed in the end, the Qi State may not be able to divide the city and land, and even if it can be divided into the city land, I am afraid it will be difficult to manage those enclaves."

"My Qi country sent troops and efforts, but in the end I couldn't get benefits, but instead sat back and watched the three kingdoms of Chu, Wei, and Han become bigger, and Yu Qi Heli!"

When the envoy of Zhao State heard this, he took out a map from his bosom in a hurry, unfolded it and pointed to the land between the rivers, and said: "If the Qin State is destroyed, and the Qi State does not want to have an enclave in Guanxi, it is better to exchange the land of Qin for the land between the rivers of Zhao State." ”

When the king of Qi and the civil and military forces of the Qi State heard this, they were all excited and excited.

Hejian was previously divided between Zhao and Yan, and it has always been a land of wealth and production, and the Qi State has long coveted it.

It wasn't until Li Mu captured more than ten cities in the Hejian of Yan State and incorporated all the lands between the rivers into the territory of Zhao State, although the Qi State still coveted the land between the rivers, but because of Zhao's strong national strength, he didn't dare to do anything crooked.

It's just that the state of Qi, from the monarch to the subjects, all want to include the land between the rivers into the territory of the Qi country.

They had this idea, not only because of the wealth of the land between the rivers, but also because after the Qi State took the land of the Yan State, the land between the rivers was like a sharp blade, piercing deep into the hinterland of the Qi State.

If they can't seize the land between the rivers, once Zhao and Qi turn against each other in the future, Zhao will be able to quickly send troops from the rivers and completely cut off the connection between the land of Du Kang and the mainland of Qi.

At that time, the land that Qi State had taken with great effort would be easily obtained by Zhao State.

People have no foresight, but they must have near-term worries.

On the contrary, if the Qi State can get the land between the rivers, the territory of the entire country will become completely integrated, and the land between the rivers and the land of the governor is very rich, as long as the Qi country develops with peace of mind for a few years, the national strength will be greatly improved.

It is precisely because the people of the Qi State have seen through this that they are eager to seize the land between the rivers.

Now that Zhao has promised that as long as Qi can send troops to help Zhao destroy Qin, he will exchange the land between the rivers for the enclave of Qin, how can the king of Qi not be happy?

Seeing the expressions of all the people of Qi State, the envoy of Zhao State still did not give up, and continued to break a fierce news: "My king also said that as long as Qi State contributes enough in this battle to destroy Qin, the territory of Qin State that will be finally distributed is vast, not only the land between the rivers, but even the hometown of Zhongshan can also be exchanged for Qi State." ”

When King Qi heard this, his breathing couldn't help but become heavy, and he asked, "Is this true?" ”

The envoy of Zhao pointed to the sky and swore an oath: "There is no lie!" ”

The king of Qi immediately shouted: "The widow set up 50,000 elite soldiers, levy national grain and grass, and do his best to help Zhao State defeat Qin!" ”

Sending 50,000 troops is not because King Qi is stingy, but because Zhao Guo asked for it.

It's just that now that the countries are short of food, and the Qi army has traveled a long way to attack Qin, too many soldiers and horses will naturally consume a lot more money and food, and even eventually overwhelm the coalition army.

Therefore, Zhao Jia was ready to take the route of elite soldiers this time, and mainly asked Qi to contribute money and grain to engage in logistics.

Among the countries, only Qi is the most difficult to convince, Chu, Wei, and Han all border with Qin, and the hatred is as deep as the sea, if they can destroy Qin, in the case of Zhao not taking Qin, they will definitely be able to benefit a lot, and there is no reason to refuse at all.

As for the Yan State, it has now been driven to Liaodong, and the pitiful and miserable Zhao State has become a vassal of the Zhao State, and the Zhao State only needs to coerce the Yan State to send troops and food, and there is no need to treat the Qi State at all, and he has to say all the good things, and promise boundless benefits.

The king of Qi agreed to do his best to help Zhao State defeat Qin, and this matter was basically settled.

Just as the envoys of Zhao were rushing to the Five Kingdoms, LΓΌ Buwei also learned of the failure to spread the plague, and felt deeply worried about the unusual movements of various countries.

Not only LΓΌ Buwei, but the big moves of various countries could not be concealed after all, and the fact that the six countries were preparing to jointly exterminate Qin because LΓΌ Buwei sent people to Zhao State to spread the plague had spread in Qin State, so that Qin State was boiling and panicked.

At this time, Chang'an Junfu, which is located in the prosperous area of Xianyang, ushered in a majestic man with a length of nine feet.

"The last general will meet Chang'anjun!"

When the man saw Chang'anjun, who was only fourteen years old, his rugged face showed a respectful look, and he hurriedly stepped forward to bow deeply.

Seeing this, Chang'an Jun stepped forward to hold the man's arms, and said in a slightly immature voice: "General Fan is the talent of the pillars of the Qin State, how dare Cheng Chan receive such a great gift from the general!" ”
