Qin Gong

Chapter 272 Zhao Cong's Anger, Li Mu's Disobedience

"Report, the Chinese army has arrived on the North Slope!"

"Report! The rear army has arrived on the southern slope!!"

Accompanied by Zhao Qi who was riding a war horse one by one, they came to Dongpo quickly.

Zhao Cong rode a horse with a sword, and nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

Before Zhao Cong was worried that after replacing Li Mu, Li Mu would have grievances in the original trilogy, so he neglected the war and delayed the military aircraft, so he let his cronies gradually replace those generals.

"Pass my order, rest in place, and always be alert to the actions of the Qin army on the other side."

Zhao Cong gave an order, and then led five hundred cavalrymen, and headed up the slope, and when they reached the top of the slope, they headed for the Zhishui River.

They didn't stop until they reached the Zhishui River for hundreds of steps.

Looking at the mighty Qin army on the other side of the river, a trace of anger flashed in Zhao Cong's eyes.

Li Mu despised him.

When disobeying King Zhao's edict, the excuse was that Jingxing couldn't live without Li Mu, which was tantamount to saying he was 'no way'.

Now Qin Jun must have received the news from the secret service in the army, knowing that Li Mu was transferred away, so the whole army arrived in Jingxing.

They are all generals, and he has always looked down on others. Now that he came to Jingxing, Li Mu insulted him before, and Qin general Wang Jian despised him later.

People still have three points of anger.

He, Zhao Cong, wanted to show Qin Jun on the opposite side today that it was Zhao Cong who was east of the water control.

If you have the guts, attack here!

"General, be careful!!"

"General, be careful!"

The confidant next to Zhao Cong suddenly saw the other side of the river, in the Qin Army camp in the distance, the Qin Army's iron cavalry rushed out of the camp in a mighty manner, rushing towards the Zhishui River, and they all exclaimed.

However, seeing this, Zhao Cong was not worried at all.

After a while.

When Zhao Cong saw Qin's army arriving to control the water and the horses began to cross the river, Zhao Cong narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes flashed a little cold.

Boom, boom, boom~~~! !
However, just as the war horses were advancing slowly in the shallow water area of ​​the Zhishui River, the sound of drumming suddenly sounded in the camp of the Qin State in the distance. The sound of troops withdrawing.

Looking at the other side of the Zhishui River, no matter whether it was on the bank or in the river, the cavalry of the Qin Army stopped and looked at each other.

Zhao Cong asked his subordinates to get out of the way, and rode forward a few steps.

However, just when Zhao Cong thought he was provoking Qin Jun at this moment, Qin Jun had nothing to do with him.

Suddenly, countless shouts began to sound from the other side of the river.

"General Bai has something to say, Zhao Cong is not as good as Li Mu!"

"Zhao Cong's trash is not as good as Li Mu! Zhao Cong's trash is not as good as Li Mu!!"

Thousands of cavalry soldiers shouted loudly on the other side of the river, their voices were endless and endless.

When the sound is uniform and resounds through the sky.

Zhao Cong, who was riding a war horse, turned blue and white by turns, and his hand holding the horse rope was tightly tightened.

The cavalry behind Zhao Cong also looked at each other in blank dismay at this moment. They did not expect Qin Jun to be so shameless and blatantly sow discord.

Among the hundreds of cavalry, Zhao Cong's cronies will ride to Zhao Cong's side.

"General, the Qin army deliberately sow dissension in an attempt to provoke the general, the general must not fall for it!"

General Zuo Qing cupped his hands at Zhao Cong and said.

"I will know!"

Zhao Cong said softly, his face full of gloom.

Zhao Cong didn't know that this was deliberately provoking him, trying to make him lose his mind and give up the advantage of the terrain to fight with the Qin army.

But somehow.

Even though Zhao Cong knew that this was Qin Jun's trick, but hearing all the Qin Jun on the other side of the river say that he is a waste and not as good as Li Mu, Zhao Cong couldn't help thinking of Li Mu's actions back then.

"Give me an order, if anyone in the army dares to criticize, behead!"

Zhao Cong's face was gloomy, and he turned around on his horse, thinking that the soldiers in the army would also hear these shouts, so he ordered softly.

On the way back, under the watchful eyes of all his cronies, Zhao Cong walked slowly, listening to the ridicule of Qin Jun on the other side of the river, at this moment, Zhao Cong was extremely angry in his heart.

Bai Yan!

Qin general Bai Yan! !
Children of the Bai family!

Zhao Cong, who is a member of the Gongsun royal family, saw the Bai family from childhood, making Zhao Guo full of Bai Lingsu.

He had a deep hatred for the Bai family, and now he was so humiliated by the Bai family's children.

Zhao Cong swears.

In the future, Bai Yan must be cooked alive and distributed to the people of Zhao.

However, Zhao Cong was surprised.

The Qin army, which was coming in a hurry, suddenly retreated two days later without any warning. It was obvious that the cavalry were still ready to fight at any time before, and news of the Qin army's withdrawal came an hour later.

"Report!!"

In Zhao Jun's camp, a drenched Zhao soldier came to the commander's tent and handed a cloth note written in blood to Zhao Cong.

Qin Jun bought people from Zhao Jun to do meticulous work, and he, Zhao Cong, naturally wouldn't just sit around and wait, so he naturally tried to bribe Qin Zu.

After the Qin army retreated, the bribed spy wrote the affairs of the Qin army on a cloth strip with blood under a special tree root.

inside the tent.

Zhao Cong took the cloth strip and slowly opened it.

The contents of the banner told Zhao Cong that there had been rumors among the Qin army that Wang Jian and Bai Yan had disagreements and had a big quarrel in the camp. It was rumored that Bai Yan often mocked the general in private as useless, Jing Xing was at his fingertips, but Wang Jian was timid and delayed the opportunity to fight.

After reading the content, Zhao Cong put away the cloth, closed his eyes, and calmed down his emotions.

"Pass me the order, the whole army is on alert!"

After Zhao Cong opened his eyes, he ordered.

Jingxing South Road.

In the mighty Zhao army camp that stretches as far as the eye can see, Yan gathered in the tent, when he saw the secret letter, he stood up quickly, turned his head to look at Li Mu, and told Li Mu what happened on Jingxing North Road.

Li Mu listened to Yan Ju's words, and looked at the hanging map.

"Mr. Wu'an, what is the plan of the Qin army? They mobilized the troops to go to the North Road, but they withdrew after two days. The purpose was to drive a distance between Mr. Wu'an and Zhao Cong?"

Sima Shang stood beside Li Mu and asked with a frown.

Looking at the map in front of him, Sima Shang was also extremely confused by Qin Jun's actions at the moment. You must know that Jingxing is a natural and mortal enemy, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Wang Jian knew this, so why did he suddenly send troops again.

inside the tent.

Just as Sima Shang's words fell, hurried footsteps came from outside the tent, and a Zhao soldier came in with two officials and four eunuchs.

"Jun Wu An!"

After two officials and four eunuchs entered the tent, they simply saluted Lord Wu An, and then they took a share of the edict.

"My king has an order to order Lord Wu'an to return to Handan immediately. Sima Shang disobeyed the king's order before, and his crime should be punished. Thinking of his previous service to Zhao, he will save his life and be demoted to a commoner!"

After reading the edict, the four eunuchs stepped forward in small steps, and under Sima Shang's terrified gaze, they took off the bezel on Sima Shang's head, and took off the armor on his body.

Li Mu looked at this scene with a flash of sadness in his eyes.

Zhao Guochaotang already has villains at work!

"Please both my lords go back and tell the king that the Qin army is eyeing Jingxing like a tiger, and if Qin does not retreat, Li Mu still cannot return to Handan to return to his command!"

Li Mu turned his head to look at the map and said softly.

Qin Jun's move, although he still looks down on the intention, but something big will happen next, and Li Mu must not return to Handan at this time.

Even afterward, King Zhao blamed him.

"Mr. Wu'an, this is already the fifth edict, and Mr. Wu'an is still stubborn, is he going to disobey?"

The two officials asked with a frown upon hearing Li Mu's words.

The other four eunuchs dared to take off Sima Shang's bezel and armor just now, but right now, none of them dared to step forward to Li Mu who was disabled in one hand and could not lift chopsticks.

If it hurts Li Mu half a hair.

None of them should even think about or leave this Zhao State Camp!
"When King Xiaocheng was alive, he knew that Li Mu was stubborn by nature, so I troubled the two adults to go back and report to the king. After retiring from Qin, Li Mu will still be dealt with by the king!"

Li Mu replied with a smile.

When he was young, he was at the border, disobeying King Xiaocheng's orders, but now he is old and can't even hold chopsticks with one hand.

Such a man is no longer afraid of death.

I just hope that it is best to die on the battlefield!

inside the tent.

Looking at Li Mu, the two Zhao officials and the four eunuchs all became embarrassed at this moment.

Li Mu's refusal meant that the trip of the six of them was futile, and when they returned to Handan, they would definitely be blamed by King Zhao.

But for Li Mu, the six of them had nothing to do.

Li Mu refused to obey his orders again and again, Zhao Wang dared not remove Li Mu's official title and throne, let alone the six of them.

After a while.

As the six people left the camp, Yan Ju looked at Li Mu.

"If Mr. Wu'an doesn't go back to Handan, there are natural dangers here in Jingxing. No matter how hard the Qin army attacks, it will be futile!"

Yan Ju looked at Li Mu and couldn't help persuading him.

If it wasn't for Li Mu being a veteran of the three dynasties with illustrious military exploits, he single-handedly brought out Zhao Bianqi and the Daibei Army. If he disobeyed orders like this, he would have been dismissed long ago.

"I have seen that Qin general Bai Yan, he is very polite and courteous, and he has fought against him, so his talent is very clear. The provocative move to control the river in the North Dao must have intentions!"

Li Mu looked at the map.

When something went wrong, Li Mu's mind recalled the young General Qin that he had seen that day by the Zhangshui River.

Recalling the past scenes, Li Mu was convinced that there must be a conspiracy behind Bai Yan's actions.

Under such circumstances, Li Mu dared not leave Jingxing easily.

　The best ingredients use the simplest cooking method, and the best way to provoke dissension is often the simpler and more effective.

　　Li Mu's habit of disobeying the king's orders can be traced back to the time of King Zhao Xiaocheng, who was Zhao Wangqian's grandfather!
