Li Mu was loyal to Zhao Guo and believed that Zhao Fan could distinguish right from wrong, so even if his subordinates were worried about the safety of others, Li Mu still didn't pay too much attention to it. Please search () to see the most complete! The fastest update

The loss of Ningwu Pass had a profound impact on the Zhao State, and as a major general, he had to make up for the threat posed by Ningwu Pass.

At present, the Tiger Ben Army flowing from the Tiger Ben Army in Ningwu Pass, with the Tiger Ben Army in the big camp, has a total of more than 100,000 people, and it is time to find ways to shift attention to Black Flag Pass.

In order to make up for the losses caused by the attack on the Yan army camp, and the threat caused by the fall of Ningwu Pass.

However, Li Mu definitely didn't expect that he overestimated himself, overestimated Zhao Fan, and overestimated Zhao Fan's ability to distinguish right from wrong.

After the loss of Ningwu Pass, the generals of the surrounding counties and counties got the news, estimated the damage caused by the fall of Ningwu Pass to Zhao State, and hurriedly sent spies to send the news back to the court of Handan City overnight.

The news was transmitted back to Handan City, Zhao Guochao was shocked, the people of Handan were frightened, and within half a day, Handan City became a big chaos, and the people seemed to have become frightened birds, and many people gradually evacuated with their families.

At the east gate of Handan, on the road to the eastern vassal states, the people were bustling, dragging their families with their mouths, carrying gold and silver, and moving their families.

Once Zhao brought them supreme glory, as Zhao people, they feel honored and proud.

Now, the glory of the past, the dust has returned to dust, the earth has returned to the earth, and the vanishing smoke has disappeared, not only has it not brought them any glory, on the contrary, because the overall strength of the Zhao State is declining, the people have long been in dire straits.

At present, the Yan army has broken through the Black Flag Pass again, observing Zhao Fan's various performances since he succeeded to the throne, many people in Handan City, especially those who once refused to donate food and materials to the court, are deeply aware that if they continue to stay in Zhao State, most of them will lose their lives.

Rather than waiting for Zhao to reach the end of the road, the court forcibly requisitioned grain and arrested the strong men, it was better to flee in advance.

Husband and wife were originally birds in the same forest, and when the catastrophe came, they flew separately, Zhao Fan inherited the throne, and how many things he did to lose power and humiliate the country, which had already made the people's grievances boil, and the people's attachment to Zhao Guo was consumed by Zhao Fan little by little.

"Brother, are you also going to leave Handan?"

"Ha, why don't you leave Handan City, Ningwu Pass has fallen, Zhao State is finished, and you go to the Eastern vassal states for refuge?"

"Yes, the Yan army is too fierce, Ningwu Pass has fallen, Zhao Guo is indeed in danger, according to the current situation, it is time to leave Handan and leave Zhao State."

……

At the east gate, in the official road, the migrating people are in pairs, even if the road ahead is long and it is not clear where they will settle down, they still can't change the people's determination to leave the Zhao country.

In one day, Handan City was in turmoil, the people were panicked, and the matter soon spread to the court.

At this time, in the court of Zhao State, Liu Zhuoya left, Zhao Mu went to the southeast, Li Mu and Feng Zixiu, the two ministers of Zhao Humerus, were in the north and south battlefields.

In the Nuoda Palace, only Zhao Fan was alone, and there were not many people who gave Zhao Fan advice.

And because of the departure of Liu Zhuoya, among the courtiers of Zhao State, a lot of storms were set off, and many courtiers refused and did not dare to get too close to Zhao Fan, so as not to fall from the sky.

After all, in the era of the first emperor, officials in the court and China committed crimes or mishandled things, and they were fined more money and grain or deducted money. Zhao Ke once, in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the reform, deducting the money and punishment, it was very rare to get money and food.

When Zhao Fan ascended to the throne, the language did not match, but it was directly fatal, and even Liu Zhuoya wanted to kill the killer, and those ordinary courtiers, he was afraid that he was even more disdainful.

Therefore, the officials of the DPRK and China are separated from Zhao Fan, and they will not talk to him at all, and they will often become without ideas in their words.

Zhao Fan is not a king-in-charge, and he relies on the ministers of the DPRK and China in case of trouble, and the current officials of the DPRK and China are separated from him, which is deeply taboo against him and deeply affects the implementation of the court's decrees.

For a time, Zhao Fan, who monopolized the government and government, made a lot of stupid and bad moves, and the court was not in harmony, which led to the failure of the government decree, and the court and the people became more and more estranged.

The magistrate of Handan City, when he reported the situation of Handan City back to the court, Zhao Fan was very shocked when he heard it for the first time, and then his expression was completely panicked.

Ningwu Pass was lost, and the people of Handan City were evacuated, if it could not be quickly recovered, the decadence of Zhao State would be completely irreversible.

However, without the assistance of any famous ministers around him, according to his character, it is difficult to make a better choice, or rather, there is no choice in his heart at all.

After thinking about it, Zhao Fan rolled up his dragon robe and shouted: "Gather the ministers and prepare to hold a court meeting." ”

At this moment, Zhao Fan did not advocate it, even if he was taboo with the ministers of the DPRK and China, he still hoped to get assertive ideas from the ministers.

At the same time, he was angry with Li Mu, as if he was discharging a flood to control the water, and it was difficult to restrain him.

According to the prior deployment, Li Mu led the army to the expedition and arrived in the north to directly attack the Black Flag Pass of Yan State and occupy the initiative in the war, however, Li Mu openly disobeyed the king's order.

The failure of this battle, in his opinion, is inextricably linked to Li Mu's violation of the king's order and not acting in accordance with the deployment.

When the king's order came out, the officials of the court and the central government acted quickly, and soon, in the court, the ministers of Zhao State gathered.

Zhao Fan was anxious in his heart, the sea of anger was surging, and he urgently needed to solve the crisis of Ningwu Pass, he glanced at the ministers, and he said straight to the point: "You are all the ministers of the humerus of Zhao State, at present, Zhao State is in danger of life and death, I hope that all ministers know everything and say all the truth." Expressing your own opinions, do not hide or taboo. ”

Knowing the relationship between the monarch and the minister in the court, Zhao Fan was furious, and lowered his posture slightly, hoping to hear words that were helpful and could solve the situation in the north.

After speaking, the hall instantly became silent, and the ministers were completely silent.

What happened in Ningwuguan, the front-line spies passed the news back overnight, and the ministers present almost all understood the clues.

Li Mu did not follow the king's order to attack the Black Flag Pass of Yan State, on the contrary, he made a choice alone and chose to attack the Yan army camp.

The ministers know that the matter is related to Li Mu, but they can't blame Li Mu, after all, Li Mu is on the front line, and he can make actual arrangements according to the situation on the front line.

Moreover, the purpose of this battle is to defeat the Yan army and capture Emperor Yan alive, once successful, not to mention once and for all, it will also completely reverse the situation of Zhao State.

However, God did not protect him, maybe Li Mu made improper deployment, or underestimated the enemy, not only did he not defeat the Yan army, but also led to the defeat of the Tiger Ben army, but it was an out-and-out thing.

Speaking of which, Li Mu's guilt is hard to escape!

In the court, the ministers understand very well that Li Mu is a famous general of Zhao State, even if he fails, he will check himself and quickly make up for the losses caused by the defeat.

After a long time, without a response from the ministers, Zhao Fan was directly angry, slapped his palm on the desk, and roared: "I summoned you to come here, you need the right answer, you are good, one by one is silent, you say, what do I want you to do?" ”

Long Yan was furious, and the ministers were cold, and no one dared to speak.

At this moment, if you don't make a suggestion, you will offend Zhao Fan, and if you make a suggestion, you will offend Li Mu.

Judging from the current atmosphere, Zhao Fan seems to have the intention of punishing Li Mu, however, the ministers know that at this moment, the more dangerous Zhao Guo is, the more he cannot offend Li Mu.

After a long time, the chief of Handan City stood up and arched his hand to Zhao Fan: "Your Majesty, the situation on the front line is complicated, there is only news from Ning Wuguan in the court, and the specific situation is unknown.

In desperation, the guards of Handan City did not dare to be too involved, so they could only say what they thought in their hearts. If he didn't say anything, he was afraid that Zhao Fan would kill people when he was angry.

The news was sent back by him, and if he didn't speak, he would most likely become the ghost of Zhao Fan's knife.

Hearing this, Zhao Fan's face did not change, on the contrary, he added a few warm angers, and said unhappily: "Li Mu, as a front-line general, has an unshirkable responsibility for the success or failure of the battle, and I have left the northern affairs to him to deal with, but the children of the Bai family have never arrived at Ningwu Pass, Ningwu Pass was occupied by the Yan army, and the Huben army lost troops and lost generals, Li Mu should have an unshirkable responsibility." ”

"Your Majesty, General Li Mu is a famous general of Zhao State, even if he is at fault, General Li Mu cannot be punished at present! Why didn't the emperor give the general a chance to atone for his sins? "The old ministers of Zhao State are many loyal ministers, and they can distinguish between right and wrong.

Hearing the words of the two ministers of the court, Zhao Fan calmed down the anger in his heart a little, but he still said unrelentingly: "I don't pursue Li Mu's defeat, however, before Li Mu set out on the expedition, I asked him to directly attack the Black Flag Pass of Yan State, but Li Mu went the other way, disregarded the emperor's order, and caused the defeat of the army. ”

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Your Majesty, you can't!"

“……”

The ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, hearing that Zhao Fan still had the intention of punishing Li Mu, the death penalty could be avoided, and the living crime could not be escaped, such words and persistence, no matter how Li Mu was punished, would inevitably cause turmoil in the hearts of the army.

In the court, dozens of ministers knelt down and pleaded for Li Mu, asking Zhao Fan to be lenient according to the current situation.

Li Mu is the general of Zhao Guoguo, even if Zhao Wuji and Zhao Ke were respectful to Li Mu before, they were courteous and courteous in many ways, so as to continue the hegemony of Zhao in the north.

If Li Mu's army is punished today because of his defeat, it will inevitably cause the dissatisfaction of the generals of the Tiger Ben Army, and if the other party mutinies, or the Tiger Ben Army who stayed in the imperial city is indignant, it will not do Zhao any good.

Under the current circumstances, not only can Li Mu not be punished, but it is also necessary to win over and reuse Li Mu more and more, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Good, good! Good! Zhao Fan said hello three times in a row, and suddenly, his palm slapped on the desk, stood up suddenly, and roared: "Are you trying to force the palace?" ”

The ministers all interceded for Li Mu, which made Zhao Fan more and more unhappy, and he only felt that as the king of a country, his prestige among the ministers was not as good as Li Mu.
