Chapter 498 Li Mu replied downstairs in the city

In just one sentence, Li Mu already knew that King Zhao in front of him almost didn't understand military affairs at all.

It is obvious that as the commander of the army, the spirit of the whole army is there, and unless forced to do so, where will he personally pursue. If there was a mistake, what would have been a great victory would turn into a great defeat in an instant.

Now that the Zhao army has enough horses, what reason does the general have to take this risk that he doesn't need to take at all?

It is impossible for anyone with a little military knowledge to ask such a stupid question. But this problem still comes from his own king.

What else can be done?

Li Mu put up his temper, clasped his fists with both hands and said to King Zhao: "My king: because the Yan army divided more than 60,000 troops to attack the Dai army, the general is leading less than 5,000 men and horses to block the Yan army in Yanhe City. ”

"What?" King Zhao and Pingyuan Jun exclaimed in unison almost in unison.

But although the words are the same, you can know from the tone alone that the two have different views on this matter.

Pingyuanjun's "what" is surprise, incredible, and incomparably worried and deeply admired.

Obviously, Pingyuan Jun knew very well how dangerous it would be for Zhao Kuo, who only had 5,000 people, to face 60,000 Yan troops in Yanhe City. How broad-minded and selfless and fearless it takes to make such a decision.

Obviously, as the general of Zhao State, he has a simpler and safer choice.

Of course, this decision is indeed the best choice for Zhao Guo, but for Zhao Kuo himself, it is not only a dangerous matter, in the case that King Zhao has already expressed his attitude, this choice is obviously a thankless one.

Sure enough, King Zhao, who heard that Zhao Kuo was still acting on behalf of the land, immediately blurted out "what", which was full of unbelievable dissatisfaction and anger.

That's right, Anger! Angry at what? Angry Zhao Kuo once again ignored the king's order he had issued, and actually stayed in Daidi.

No matter how ignorant King Zhao is, can he still not know what kind of strange move it should be to use only 5,000 people to resist the 60,000 army of the Yan army?

No, apparently he understood.

But the more he knew, the more angry King Zhao became. One is that he is angry that he was ignored by Zhao Kuo again, but more importantly, maybe it is fear!

King Zhao is afraid of Zhao Kuo's victory! Once Zhao Kuo really completed the feat of blocking the Yan army's 60,000 army with 5,000 soldiers, he was undoubtedly slapping himself in the face again.

At that time, how will Zhao Kuo, who is already very prestigious, be contained? can't curb Zhao Kuo, who has repeatedly disobeyed orders, will anyone still take their king's order seriously?

At that point, the master will be more than just a hat!

And Zhao Kuo has also become a rebellious minister and thief who "can be opposed if he wants to".

I was kind enough to go out of the palace to greet him in person! But I don't want this Zhao Kuo, a proper rebel and thief!

"Chaotic ministers and thieves" King Zhao cursed incessantly in his heart, and King Zhao couldn't help but grit his back molars!

But King Zhao is still a little sensible, he knows very well that the Yan army has just been defeated at this time, and it is definitely not the time to vent.

Immediately, King Zhao's face changed again, and he tried to calm his mind and said, "That's it! That's a shame. ”

And the instantaneous change in King Zhao's face was keenly captured by someone with a heart.

"This General Li, let's enter the palace with the widow, and the widow celebrates with a bonus." King Zhao struggled to squeeze out a hint of a smile and said.

It's a pity that Li Mu in front of him doesn't want to eat any celebration banquet.

"My king." Li Mu hugged his fists again and said: "The general is still fighting in the city, and the last general asks for orders to immediately lead the army back to the division to rescue the general." ”

Hearing this, King Zhao was very unhappy in his heart - sure enough, what kind of general will train what kind of soldiers.

"Don't be so anxious, the king will personally give a banquet, and the effort to eat will not matter." Obviously, seeing that King Zhao's face had changed again, Dr. Lou Chang immediately fanned the flames on the side.

It seems that the words of persuasion are actually hidden needles: What's the matter, your general is important, and the king's banquet is not important?

Pingyuanjun on the side naturally heard the provocative meaning in Lou Chang's words, but without waiting for Pingyuanjun on the side to say anything, Li Mu on this side replied first: "My king, the general only has 5,000 troops around him, but he has to face more than ten times the enemy, which is really dangerous. I was also asked to allow Wang to immediately go north to help the general. ”

"It seems that this general really deserves to be promoted by the general." Lou Chang continued to Yin and Yang: "I just don't know, when the general rescued Handan, was he also so eager?" ”

"This." Li Mu also heard the trap, this is to oppose Handan and the city! Immediately, Li Mu also replied helplessly: "The last general returned all the way to help, almost day and night, and naturally he was also anxious. ”

"I'm afraid the general is in a hurry to return to the general." Lou Chang said with a smile, and there was no sarcasm in his words.

Li Mu was a little stunned when he heard this, you have finished everything, let me say, why did I say that you would pull the general's body! Obviously, in terms of lip service, Li Mu, who has always been in the army, is not the opponent of this Lou Chang doctor at all.

Fortunately, there is also Pingyuanjun next to Li Mu.

"My king." Pingyuan Jun finally stood up and said: "The soldiers are very fast, although this General Li Mu's words may be inappropriate, but his fist heart is still commendable. Now that the siege of Handan has been lifted, why don't we postpone the celebration banquet, wait for the siege of Yan and the city, and completely drive the Yan army out of Zhao, and wait for the general to return, how about we celebrate again? ”

When King Zhao heard this, although he was still a little reluctant in his heart, he could only nod.

Just as King Zhao was about to agree to Li Mu leading his army north, Doctor Lou Chang on the side once again removed the moth.

"General Lee." Lou Chang saw that King Zhao had compromised, and immediately changed the battlefield and said: "We just watched it from the city tower, and it seems that there are not many troops in the Yan army camp. Where is the main force? ”

When Li Mu heard this, he looked at Dr. Lou Chang, but he didn't answer, obviously Li Mu didn't want to deal with this guy who couldn't get along with him.

King Zhao immediately introduced: "This is Dr. Lou Chang. ”

Seeing that King Zhao had already introduced, Li Mu also knew that King Zhao meant to let him answer. When he arched his hand, he said: "Doctor Lou Chang, please rest assured, the last general has sent 10,000 troops to pursue, and there will be good news soon." ”

"Oh?" Lou Chang's eyes rolled slightly, and then asked: "General Li, I don't know how much it is to kill the captured Yan army in this battle?" ”

"About 30,000 horses." Li Mu immediately replied.

"And what about the number of pursuits?" Lou Chang continued to ask.

"About forty or fifty thousand under the mountain," Li Mu also continued to reply.

"In this way, the Yan army still has an army of fifty or sixty thousand, and it is about to flee back to the Yan country?" Lou Chang pretended to be surprised and said.

"Yes!" Although Li Mu didn't understand what Lou Chang wanted to say and do, he still reported it honestly.

And Lou Chang, who was affirmed by Li Mu, was obviously very happy, and immediately suggested to King Zhao: "Weichen's suggestion: ......"

Some people died, but not completely......
