Chapter 103: Change of Commander
The relationship between Zhao Wangqian and Li Mu is not very good.
Li Mugong was a high-spirited master, and he often contradicted Zhao Wangqian in the past, and this kind of thing was not a secret within them.
Guo Kai can guarantee with his life, he said it so decisively and solemnly, it doesn't look like a fake.
All kinds of factors added up, Zhao Wangqian was even more suspicious that Li Mu wanted to surrender to the Qin army, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said fiercely: "Pass the edict of the widow and let Li Mu come back immediately." ”
"King, please think again!"
"The minister thinks that General Li is not this kind of person, it just so happens that the minister's subordinates have a few people who have come back from Jingcheng, so they can come and explain it in person."
Gongzijia faced Guo Kai and said coldly: "Guo Kai, do you think General Li is going to surrender, and you also said that the whole army has seen that General Li has received a letter from the King of Qin, do you dare to confront him!" ”
He has already called Guo Kai by his name, and he no longer gives Guo Kai face at all.
Guo Kai was not angry, and readily agreed: "Why don't you dare? King! The minister asked to confront Gongzi Jiadang. ”
Listening to Gongzijia's words, Zhao Wangqian slowly calmed down, although he was unhappy with Li Mu in his heart, but Zhao Guo couldn't live without Li Mu, and he was also worried about any misunderstanding.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Uncle, bring your subordinates up." ”
"Yui!"
Childe Jia immediately walked out of the main hall.
Soon, the man was brought in.
Guo Kai first asked: "You say, did the King of Qin ask someone to send a letter to Li Mu?" ”
How could that person have seen such a big scene, he was scared and hesitant, and he didn't know what to say.
"Is there any, it doesn't hurt if you say it directly!"
Childe Jia also wants to know the truth.
The man whispered, "Yes! ”
There really is!
"Say it again."
Zhao Wangqian stood up suddenly, strode forward and asked, "Yes or no?" ”
The man repeated in fear, "Yes! ”
He recalled the situation at that time and said truthfully: "At that time, someone asked General Li what was written in the letter, and General Li said that he didn't care about it and didn't show it to others, and then went back. ”
"Li Mu!"
Zhao Wangqian was furious.
The content of the epistle is not important anymore, but what is important is that it is true.
Gongzijia didn't expect it, it was still true, and he didn't know how to defend Li Mu anymore, and vaguely felt that this was not the case.
There must be something else behind it, but he has no evidence and doesn't know where to start.
He believed in Li Mu and would never surrender.
Guo Kai secretly thought that the people on the Qin State's side would play tricks, and they could also think of doing so, and then asked: "After that day, did Li Mu never fight again?" ”
The man nodded, "Not again." ”
"Li Mu really wants to betray the king!"
Guo Kai continued to add oil and vinegar, and said in a rhythm: "He wants to consume all the grain of our Zhao State, and then open the gate of Jingcheng City to surrender, if we run out of food, the soldiers guarding Handan are hungry, how to fight?" In the end, there is no doubt about defeat! ”
Gongzijia thinks that there must be another hidden story behind it: "The king, the minister thinks that it is still necessary to find out, not impulsive!" ”
"Enough!"
Zhao Wangqian couldn't listen to other words, and said angrily: "Pass the widow's order, let Yan Ju go to Jingcheng, replace Li Mu, and then pass Li Mu back, if he doesn't come back, bring his head back, dare to resist, and kill without mercy!" ”
This matter has been determined by him and cannot be changed.
Gongzi Jia had no choice but to leave the main hall.
The others also left one after another, only Guo Kai still refused to leave, and said, "The king, the minister is still worried about one thing." ”
"Prime Minister speak quickly!"
Zhao Wangqian felt that Guo Kai was more kind, if it weren't for him, he would still be kept in the dark by Li Mu.
Guo Kai said: "Li Mu has a very high prestige and the military aspirations, and the ministers are worried that he will come back and learn that the rebellion has been exposed, and he will encourage the guards of Handan to rebel, which will be very dangerous at that time." ”
Zhao Wangqian was shocked, thinking that there was this possibility, and asked: "What does the prime minister think to do?" ”
"After he leaves Jingcheng, the first strike is strong!"
Guo Kai made a gesture to wipe his neck.
——
Yan Ju's speed was very fast, but in a few days, he arrived in Jingcheng City.
"General Yan, why did you come to Jingcheng?"
Li Mu asked puzzled.
Yan Ju took out the king's edict and said: "The king has an order, ordering General Li to return to Handan as soon as possible, and I will take over here, please ask General Li to hand over the talisman!" ”
Li Mu frowned and said: "Changing the commander in battle, the soldiers are taboo, how can the king let me go back, what happened in Handan?" ”
Yan Ju was instructed not to say anything about surrender, but just handed over the royal edict to him and said, "The king said, if General Li doesn't go back, let me send your head back." ”
The hundreds of soldiers around him immediately surrounded him.
When Li Mu's subordinates saw this, they immediately took up their weapons, and the two sides seemed to be about to fight, and they were about to break out.
"Stop!"
Li Mu stopped them, and always felt that the edict came at this time, which was very wrong.
But he would not betray the Zhao State, nor would he betray the orders of the King of Zhao, so in the end he could only go back and said: "I will leave later, but I suggest one thing to General Yan, if you don't want Jing Cheng to lose, it is best not to change my deployment, otherwise Jing Cheng will not be able to hold it." ”
Yan Ju said casually: "I have my arrangement, someone will escort General Li back!" ”
Li Mu withdrew from the barracks, went directly to his main account, simply packed up some personal things, and took more than 200 people to prepare to go back to Handan.
When the young man of the Mo family got the news, he said worriedly: "General Li, the king is calling you back now, I am afraid that there will be more luck than lucky!" ”
Li Mu and King Zhao are at odds, and everyone knows about them.
Changing the commander on the spot is not only a taboo for soldiers, but also not very friendly to Li Mu, otherwise he would not use such a thing as taking someone back.
"I'll be careful."
Li Mu looked at Jing Cheng's city tower and sighed: "I'm dead, in fact, there is nothing to be afraid of, but what I'm afraid of is that after I die, Jing Cheng won't be able to hold it, and then Handan will fall, and Zhao State will be destroyed, you still stay and find a way to kill Bai Zhong." ”
The young man shook his head and said, "No! I go back with the general, I can protect the general along the way, Zhao Guo can't be without a general, even if Jingcheng is lost, as long as the general is still there, Handan will not be lost, not to mention that I am the general's person, I am afraid that it will be dangerous to stay. ”
Li Mu thought for a while and said, "It's okay!" ”
Jingcheng can be lost, but Handan must not.
He can't die, first go back to Handan to figure out what happened, then solve this matter, and then find a way to defend it, continue to delay with the Qin army, and save everything!
Soon, someone came to urge.
Li Mu took the person from the Mo family and two hundred followers out of the southern gate of Jingcheng.
Yan Ju arranged two thousand people, ostensibly as an escort, but in fact it was more like an escort, surrounding Li Mu in the middle, and then setting off back.
"General Yan must remember my words, and he must not change Jing Chen's deployment!"
After Li Mu finished speaking, he had to leave.
Yan Ju couldn't listen to it at all, and immediately went to change Jing Cheng's arrangement.
Not long after Li Mu walked out of the city gate, he was hidden in the nearby mountains and forests, and the scouts of the Qin army all saw it and hurriedly passed the news back.
