Chapter 560 reported to Handan Longtai Palace
Pedal Pedal ......
Outside the Longtai Palace, a rush of footsteps suddenly sounded.
In the palace, Zhao Kuozheng and Pingyuan Jun, Tian Dan, Lu Buwei and other important ministers discussed the situation of the autumn harvest in various places.
Obviously, looking at Zhao Kuo's satisfied face, this year's harvest has obviously hit a new high!
Just as the monarch and ministers were enjoying themselves, the footsteps gradually stopped, and the door of the temple was indeed gently pushed open.
The person who came was not someone else, it was the eunuch order of the current Zhao State - Zhao Zhong. He is the only one who can push open the side door of the council hall at this time.
It's just that Zhao Zhong's always gentle face has a serious face, and although he has tried hard to adjust his breathing, it is still not difficult to hear the rapid wheezing of the pace. Obviously, Zhao Zhong came at a trot all the way just now.
To make the eunuch order so urgent to meet is obviously a trivial matter.
Quickly adjusting his breathing, facing the laughter in the hall, Zhao Zhong looked at the silk book in his hand again, and secretly prayed in his heart that this urgent silk book would not be bad news.
Soon, Zhao Zhong came to Zhao Kuo's side and stood quietly, and his breath also gasped.
"My king!" After standing still, Zhao Zhong bowed slightly to Zhao Kuo.
"Oh? Zhongqing, what's the matter? Zhao Kuo raised his head and asked, he was discussing the court affairs with Pingyuan Jun, if there was no major matter, his eunuch order should not come in and disturb it.
"My king: 100 miles of express delivery!" Listening to Zhao Kuo's question, Zhao Zhong immediately responded that he didn't want to leave any unreliable impression on the king. Immediately, Zhao Zhong took a silk book in both hands and handed it to Zhao Kuo.
"Oh?" Zhao Kuo was obviously a little surprised.
There is no need to look at it, Zhao Kuo has already guessed the situation in the silk book. In today's Zhao State, the only major event is Li Mu's northern expedition, and for Li Mu, Zhao Kuo obviously has absolute confidence.
Sure enough, looking at the unopened fire paint, Zhao Kuo recognized it at a glance that it was Li Mu's seal.
Immediately, Zhao Kuo didn't bother to read it, it was nothing more than a good news. After reading it myself, I have to circulate it to Pingyuanjun and others, so it's better to read it directly.
Waving his hand slightly, Zhao Kuo immediately said to Zhao Zhong on the side: "Northern Xinjiang, Li Mu's urgent report." Read it! ”
It's just that although Zhao Kuo has absolute confidence in Li Mu, it doesn't mean that others also have absolute confidence in Li Mu, after all, Li Mu today has not had too many proud achievements except for the first battle against Yan Jun. And Yan Jun understands everything that understands......
Listening to Zhao Kuo's words, in just a moment, Ping Yuanjun's heartbeat was much faster, and his body immediately sat up, stretching his neck longer, trying to hear the news about Northern Xinjiang in a ten-thousandth of a second earlier.
For no other reason, the battle of Northern Xinjiang is too important. If there is any accident in the battle of Northern Xinjiang, Zhao will not only lose one of the most powerful main forces, but I am afraid it will also cause many chain reactions.
The Qin army will never let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, although there is Lian Po stationed in Shangdang County, but the Qin army has accumulated several years of strength, if the northern Xinjiang is defeated, Zhao Guo is unable to support Shangdang in a short time, whether it can be held, it is really difficult to say.
At that time, the Yan Kingdom, which had been cut off a large piece of territory, would inevitably attack Hejian County.
In a word, if the army in northern Xinjiang is lost, the Zhao State is in danger of overturning.
Thinking of this, Pingyuan Jun even complained a little about Zhao Kuo, why it was too hasty to entrust such a large army to Li Mu, a hairy boy......
It's just that he forgot that Zhao Kuo, who was sitting in front of him, was just a hairy boy of Li Mu's age.
And this hairy boy, under his persuasion, led the broken Zhao army to defeat the invincible Qin army, and won the land of Shangdang and Hanoi counties.
Of course, Pingyuan Jun didn't know that a hundred and ten years later, there would be a dynasty called "Han", and in that dynasty, there would be a young man who was famous through the ages: he was only eighteen years old, and he led an army of 800 cavalry to behead 2,000 in his first battle, and he was crowned the champion marquis.
Immediately afterwards, this young man, who was much younger than Zhao Kuo and Li Mu at this time, was completely uncontrollable, and since then he has started his life.
Tens of thousands of elite horses rode out of Longxi, fought for thousands of miles, headed 8,000, and won the gold man of the Hu people to sacrifice to the sky;
Fu with 50,000 elite soldiers out of the north, over Juyan, over the big and small Yueshi, even attacked Qilian, killed 30,000 and captured more than 25,000 enemies;
In the land of the Dynasty, the attack was 2,000 miles, but it was more than the Hou Mountain, the Gonglu River, and the 70,000 elites of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King and other troops were annihilated, until the Wolf Juxu Mountain.
From then on, the first place is no longer called the first place, but the champion!
Since this time, the highest achievement of the military generals of the past dynasties is - Feng Wolf Juxu!
Of course, from this time on, no one dares to say that the young man is unscrupulous!
Instead, there are words such as "ambition is not in old age", "don't bully young people into poverty", and "don't be young".
Of course, that's all for later!
But obviously, Zhao Kuo has an absolute grasp of this urgent report from Northern Xinjiang! Without him, just because, the main general is Li Mu, the warlord who was rated as the No. 1 warlord of the Warring States by later generations!
Under Li Mu's command, there was an elite army of 150,000 cultivated by Zhao Guo for five years of recuperation.
On the other hand, what about the Hu people? After five years of mutual markets, the entire grassland has been trampled into a sieve by merchants, and countless tribes are all interested in Zhao and can't be for Zhao Min.
Configured like this, such a balance of strength between the enemy and us, if you can still lose, Zhao Kuo will simply take a piece of tofu and kill him!
Of course, it is not difficult to defeat the Hu people, but the difficult thing is whether they can decide the situation in a battle, and from then on completely incorporate the grassland into the territory of Zhao. After all, this grassland is so vast that even if an army of 150,000 is scattered, it is just a drop in the ocean.
This will test Li Mu's level, not only to completely solve the problem of the Hu people in a war, but also to achieve this goal at the lowest cost. After all, in such a war to destroy the country, Hu Ren must fight to the death, if it is not good, it is possible for him to bite off a piece of meat fiercely.
In this way, although the worries of the Hu people were solved, Zhao Guo also temporarily lost the bargaining chips to continue the attack, and it was also a little troublesome.
But, still in that sentence, Zhao Kuo absolutely believes in Li Mu.
As for Tian Dan and Lu Buwei on the side, they were also like Zhao Kuo, full of confidence in Li Mu, so they looked at the eunuch Ling with more expectation in their eyes.
As long as the Hu people of Daibei are taken, Zhao Guo will have no worries from now on, and the soldiers and horses that can be saved will be more than 100,000. More importantly, once the Daibei Grassland is included in the Zhao State, the supply of war horses will also go to a higher level, and the combat power of the Zhao army will also go to another level.
A few people with their own hearts were thinking about it, but the eunuch Ling Zhao Zhong had already begun to read Li Mu's silk book.
"Minister, acting county lord Li Mu, bow to the south.
Since the minister entered Hu, after more than ten battles, he has finally destroyed the country of the Beihu people, taken all his land, and obtained his people.
In this battle, a total of more than 60,000 enemies were killed, and nearly 300,000 Hu people were captured.
As a result, our army suffered more than 13,000 casualties.
Urgent delivery to my king, especially for my king, this is one of the things! ”
Zhao Zhong read as he spoke, and the smile on his face gradually bloomed with the words.
Of course, the same smile bloomed on the faces of everyone present.
If it is said that the most undisturbing thing is still Zhao Kuo, without him, this result is expected by Zhao Kuo.
It's just that Li Mu is Li Mu in the end, even if Zhao Kuo is already mentally prepared, he still brings a lot of surprises to Zhao Kuo - this loss is a little too little, and this gain is a little too big!
If Zhao Kuo is still not shocked, then the Pingyuan Jun on the side can only be described as "ecstatic". Even, Pingyuan Jun on the side couldn't help but stand up and shouted, "God bless my Great Zhao!" Defeat the strong with the weak, and the battle loss ratio is as high as thirty or forty! Really, really......"
The excited Plains Jun didn't know what words to use to describe such a great victory!
"Even if General Lian Po, or even the king, who is known as the god of war by various countries, goes in person, can he win such a big victory?" Pingyuanjun secretly speculated in his heart: "Maybe, maybe there is this possibility!" But it's only possible! ”
Then he looked at Zhao Kuo, who had a calm face, and couldn't help but secretly think in his heart: "It seems that my king has expected such a big victory." ”
Ping Yuanjun looked at Zhao Kuo with a little admiration in his eyes: "My king's ability to see people is indeed extraordinary!" ”
"God bless Da Zhao!" Pingyuan-kun couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Immediately, Pingyuan Jun waved at Zhao Kuo and said: "Congratulations to my king, I have added another 'god of war' to my big Zhao!" ”
"Haha! The widow knew what Li Muzhi was capable of! Hearing this, Zhao Kuo was also quite excited, even happier than he had won the Battle of Changping.
The feeling of being a Bole is really good.
Immediately, Zhao Kuo laughed and teased Pingyuanjun and said, "Pingyuanjun has ever complained that the appointment of newcomers by widows is too hasty? ”
Hearing this, Tian Dan and Lu Buwei, who were present, also looked at Pingyuanjun with interest, obviously both of them had heard Pingyuanjun's worried words during this time. Although he knew that Pingyuanjun was only worried about the overall situation of Zhao Guo and was not enough to denigrate, this did not prevent the two of them from turning into melon-eating people......
Pingyuan Jun, who was poked at the center, naturally couldn't admit it: "Where is my king!" The vision of my king is obvious to all in the court! If anyone dares to question my king's employment, the old man will not agree to it first, and he will definitely stand up and argue with him! ”
"Hahaha......" Zhao Kuo laughed, and scolded helplessly in his heart: "Chameleon! Old fox! ”
No longer entangled too much with Pingyuan Jun, Zhao Kuo immediately asked Zhao Zhong to continue to read the silk book. One of the things mentioned in the silk book, Li Mu's letter is probably more than just a success.
"No!" Zhao Zhong also readily agreed.
Some people died, but not completely......
