In failure, people will still be lucky, but in a desperate situation, most of them will relax, because the struggle is useless, and there is only a calm acceptance of the arrival of fate, which is the case with Li Mu at this time.

I saw Li Mu with a calm face, and said to Sima Shang, who was shocked by what happened outside: "When Yang Ming attacked the country, the King of Wei rescued him with 50,000 Wei soldiers, but Yang Ming used the strategy of Wei Ge on all sides to disintegrate his army's will to fight overnight, and 50,000 Wei soldiers ambushed the corpse, and now Yang Ming has done much more ruthless than those Wei Ge back then. ”

"General, is there really no hope?" Sima Shang asked with the last bit of luck.

"Where is the hope? At this moment, miracles are no longer likely to happen to us, but there may be a good thing. Mu Li sighed.

He has been invincible all his life, but he lost this most unloseable war, and he lost it in the hands of the people he could have included in his command back then, fate, it is really a wonderful thing.

"A good thing?" Sima Shang was surprised, what good things can be done in this situation?

"The Qin army did such an offensive thing, at least it shows that the Qin army did not intend to completely annihilate us, the Zhao army has been defeated as an army, but the soldiers, as Zhao people, can still live." Li Mu said.

What he is most worried about does not have to happen, this is a good thing, as the general of Zhao Guo, Li Mu has a reason to die in battle, but he can't ask every soldier to make the choice of dying on the battlefield like him, after all, the soldier is just an ordinary person, he has never enjoyed the benefits of high-ranking officials, and what qualifications does Zhao have to ask people to give up their lives and their families for themselves.

Survive? But will it really be that easy to survive? It doesn't necessarily take less courage to live than it does to choose to die.

In the commotion of the Zhao army, a horse walked towards the Zhao army, and under the gaze of the Zhao army, the man spoke: "Lord Captain of the Protector Army, please see General Zhao Guoda." ”

As the news passed layer by layer, an invitation from Yang Ming soon appeared in front of Li Mu.

"General, don't be trusted, I have heard that Yang Ming of the Qin State is the best at cutting generals and capturing the flag, at this time Yang Ming invited, maybe there is fraud." Seeing that Li Mu seemed to be quite moved, Sima Shang hurriedly stopped.

"It's all come to this point, he Yang Ming is already in control, so why cheat, I'm going to take a look and see what he will say at this time." Li Mudao.

Soon Li Mu crossed the chaotic Zhao army and came to the front of the battle, and Yang Ming was already waiting for him there, and he also set up a table on the battlefield with a lot of waves, so that on the huge battlefield, the small table was so dazzling, but behind it, it was the Qin army's calmness as the victor.

"General Li, I haven't seen you for many years." Seeing that Li Mu agreed to his invitation, Yang Ming understood that his plan was already half successful, no matter anything, as long as he could sit down and talk, there would be a chance to realize it, even if it was a major event related to the life and death of Zhao Jun.

"Yes, it's been a long time, I never thought that twelve years would be such a thing, what is Yang Hujun inviting the old man here for? Is it to persuade you to surrender? Li Mu was invited to sit down and said.

"Is there any need to fight now?" Yang Ming said.

"There is only one death." Li Mu said indifferently.

"What about Zhao Jun's soldiers? What about the lives and deaths of these nearly 100,000 people? Yang Ming asked.

"In the midst of the collapse of the country and the collapse of the family, what can be the fate of the individual?" Li Mu looked at Yang Ming, looking at the young man in front of him who was about to destroy the Zhao State with his own hands, his thoughts had returned uncontrollably to the winter of Yanmen County that year, if he didn't let Yang Ming leave at that time, but left him by his side, this scene might not appear now, but unfortunately it is useless to say anything now.

"General Li brought them to the battlefield, isn't it possible that he wants to leave them alone now?" Yang Ming asked rhetorically.

Surrender is very easy for people like Guo Kai, but it is very difficult for people like Li Mu, because when surrendering, the most difficult thing is not to bow his head to the former enemy, but to cross the threshold in his heart, and the threshold that Li Mu set for himself in his heart is too high, so high that it is difficult for him to step over at this time.

"Li Mu's ability is limited, and he has failed them." Li Mu sighed and said, he knew what Yang Ming meant, but anyone in the Zhao army could surrender, but he couldn't, because he Li Mu was not only Li Mu, as the general of Zhao State, he was also the backbone of Zhao State, if even he surrendered to the Qin army, then the hearts of Zhao State would really be scattered.

The victory or defeat on the battlefield is only temporary, as long as the blood in the hearts of the people of Zhao has not cooled, as long as the faith in the hearts of the people of Zhao has not been extinguished, Zhao still has hope of recovery, but if Zhao Guo does not even have this last spirit, then Zhao Guo really has no hope.

Li Mu must use his own blood to reserve a trace of courage for Zhao to resist, only in this way will Zhao not be completely conquered.

Li Mu didn't say what he thought, but Yang Ming still guessed it, so Yang Ming said directly: "Is General Li afraid that if he lives, for the future, when the Zhao people want to rebel against the rule of the Qin State, he can't even find an ancestor who can be used to unite people's hearts?" ”

"You ......" Li Mu, who was directly clicked by Yang Ming, could no longer maintain the calmness of his expression, and the momentary surprise in his expression had already answered Yang Ming's question for him.

"General Li, the war of the Qin State against the Zhao State is just to destroy the Zhao State of the King of Zhao, not like the wolf clan entering Qin, to plunder the children of the people of the Zhao State as slaves, to plunder the property and land of the people of the Zhao State, to exterminate the culture of the people of the Zhao State, the Qin State is only to destroy the Zhao State of the King of Zhao, this is a war for the unification of the world, a war for peace, do you really want the people of the Zhao State to resist all the time?" Yang Ming asked rhetorically.

In response to Yang Ming, it was Li Mu's silence.

"If the people of Zhao State keep resisting, it's okay, but is it worth it? And for what are they rebelling for? Yang Ming asked again.

At this time, Li Mu was still silent.

"General Li, you have to believe that the Qin State's attack on the Zhao State is not necessarily a bad thing for the people living in the land of the Zhao State, the Zhao State also attacked the Dai State back then, and the Zhao State also attacked the Zhongshan State back then, didn't those people of the Dai State and the Zhongshan State also live a good life? This time, the Qin army attacked and destroyed the Zhao State, which was actually no different from the Zhao State that attacked and destroyed the Dai State and the Zhongshan State. Yang Ming continued.

"I didn't know that you Yang Ming was so eloquent, I was wrong about you back then, I always thought you were just a teenager with an amazing talent in martial arts." Li Mu said with a wry smile.

"Even if General Li wanted to keep me, I wouldn't stay." Yang Ming, who knew the other meaning of Li Mu's words, said directly.

"You want revenge?" Li Mu asked, the grievances between Yang Ming and Empress Dowager Zhao and Guo Kai, through the Snow Girl, Li Mu still knows, but will Yang Ming, who came with a heart of revenge, kill because of this?

And if Yang Ming wants to kill in Zhao Guoda, who else can stop him?

"Naturally, if you have revenge, you will not revenge a gentleman, so, General Li, you have to live well, otherwise I dare not guarantee that I will not go on a killing spree." Yang Ming smiled, but Li Mu didn't dare to take Yang Ming's words as just a joke.

No matter how polite Yang Ming behaves at this time, Li Mu can also see that under Yang Ming's smile, he is colder than the vast majority of people in the world, and he can't see the smell of blood diffusing everywhere in this battlefield?

"General Li, come down, you should know that you have lost this war, and if you don't struggle, it's just a matter of increasing casualties, and this year's drought in Zhao is a foregone conclusion, even if Zhao can support it on this battlefield, Zhao will not be able to survive this year's catastrophe, only Qin can let the people of Zhao live." Yang Ming persuaded.

"Death requires courage and is very simple, but to live, you need not only courage, but also perseverance and patience."

"At this time, General Li should not only think about his own death, but should be the soldiers in the army behind you, and how the people on the land under your feet will live."

Listening to Yang Ming's words, Li Mu fell into silence, he knew that what Yang Ming said made sense, but it was because it was too reasonable, he would be silent, he really couldn't cross the threshold in his heart.

"After the Qin State occupied the Zhao State, can the people really be unharmed, can they really live as before, or even live a better life?" After a long silence, Li Mu asked such a question.

"Yes, now our war is to end the war, and from now on, there will be no more wars between Qin and Zhao." Yang Ming said.

"What if the Qin State can't make the lives of the people of the Zhao State better, but worse?" Li Mu asked, this is the question he is most concerned about, the reason why he chose to die before was to leave Zhao Guo with the courage to resist in the future.

"There is no country in the world that will last forever, and this is true of the Xia Shang and Western Zhou dynasties, the Jin Kingdom, the Dai Kingdom, and the Zhongshan Kingdom in the near future, and the same is true for the current Zhao Kingdom." Yang Ming said.

Although Yang Ming did not talk about the future at this time, he said that Qin State, but Li Mu had already understood another meaning between Yang Ming's words, in the future, if Qin State could not make the people on this land live better, in the future, if Qin State made it impossible for the people on this land to live, then the people on this land could naturally rise up and destroy the rulers who oppressed them.

"It's just, who the hell are you? I misread you back then, but now I can't see you clearly. Li Mu looked at Yang Ming in front of him and fell into deep thought, at this moment, in Yang Ming's body, he saw a kind of indifference, an indifference that regarded the Seven Kingdoms as nothing.
