My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 706: I have a lot of experience in such trivial matters as disobeying the king's orders! How can a tiger be with insects!
Le Cheng and other Zhao generals all looked angry.

When Li Mu was stationed in Dai County and fighting against the Xiongnu, he was repeatedly reprimanded by the court for having been fighting for too long.

But now, the court reprimanded Li Mu for conquering too quickly.

So no matter whether Li Mu hits fast or slow, he will be reprimanded? !
More importantly, Wang Ling's order was completely opposite to Li Mu's strategic plan.

When it comes to military strategy, how could Guo Kai be better than Li Mu!

However, what made all the generals despair was that even if they were dissatisfied, what could they do?
Even if Wang Ling was wrong, he was still Wang Ling after all!
Li Mu slowly straightened up, looked at Guo Chang's smug smile, and said in a cold voice:
"I refuse to accept the order!"

The early spring evening breeze suddenly rises, and the trees in the mountains rustle.

All the generals suddenly looked at Li Mu, their eyes filled with shock.

Guo Chang looked at Li Mu in disbelief and asked in a lost voice: "What did you say?!"

Li Mu looked at Guo Chang with cold eyes and spoke word by word:
"I refuse to accept the order!"

Guo Chang shouted angrily and helplessly: "Mr. Wu'an, do you know what a crime it is to disobey the king's order?"

"Do you want to cause chaos and rebellion?!"

Li Mu showed a playful smile: "Do you think I will rebel?"

Seeing Guo Chang's face turn pale in an instant, Li Mu sneered even more.

Guo Kai used the past of Li Mu's ancestors to constantly instill in Zhao Wangyan and Zhao Wangqian the idea that Li Mu was not trustworthy.

But Guo Kai was the one who knew best that Li Mu would not rebel.

It was precisely because Guo Kai knew that Li Mu would not cause chaos and rebellion that he dared to hand over 600,000 troops to Li Mu.

But Guo Kai never thought that Li Mu was a living person!

If he was really forced to rebel by Guo Kai, how would Guo Kai respond?

Li Mu sighed with emotion: "I was personally conferred the title of Wu'an Jun by the late king, and I am trusted and respected by the late king."

"I will not let down the late king's trust, nor will I let the world doubt the late king's vision!"

This sentence was said to Guo Chang.

But more often than not, Li Mu was advising himself!

Guo Chang forced a smile and said quickly: "This is natural! This is natural!"

"I just lost my mind. When I return to the court, I will ask the king for apology!"

"Mr. Wu'an's loyalty to the Great Zhao is evident to all!"

Guo Chang was really scared.

If Guo Chang provoked Li Mu to rebel, Guo Chang would be guilty of this crime and deserve death!
Li Mu ignored Guo Chang's amusing words and said firmly: "The reason why the previous king named me Wu'an Jun was because of my ability in war."

"As the commander-in-chief of this battle, I have a clearer view of the battle situation on the front line than the ministers sitting in Handan City."

"I know how to fight this battle."

"If the king trusts me, then I will be the commander of this battle."

"If the king does not trust me, then I will be replaced as the commander-in-chief!"

"As long as the king does not remove me from my position as commander-in-chief, our army will not obey such unreasonable orders!"

If the king trusts me, then stop talking nonsense and wait for me to bring you victory.

If the king does not trust me, then I will be dismissed from my position as commander-in-chief!
Anyway, I have been replaced in battle many times and have plenty of experience.

But you, Guo Kai, dare you let me return to Handan City?
Guo Chang said in a deep voice, both angry and cowardly: "Mr. Wu'an, this is Wang's order!"

"Disobeying orders is a serious crime!"

"The military strategies formulated by the many wise men in the court are certainly more comprehensive than the ideas of Wu Anjun."

"How can Wu Anjun treat the lives of 600,000 soldiers as a joke?"

Li Mu sneered unabashedly: "Instead of fighting for power and framing loyal officials, the ministers in the court have time to think about the war on the front line?"

"Then please ask Minister Guo to convey this message to the king and the ministers in the court on my behalf."

"Qin Chang'an Jun was extremely angry about Zuo Shi's death."

"Qin Chang'an Jun demands that our Great Zhao bury Zuo Shi with honor and that the king give an explanation to the people of the world."

"Otherwise, Qin Chang'an Jun will go to Handan in person after the autumn harvest this year to demand an explanation!"

"Since the ministers in the court are so idle, why not think about how to calm the anger of Qin Chang'an Jun and the people of the world!"

Guo Chang was surprised: "Qin Chang'an Jun is extremely angry about Zuo Shi's death?"

"What does the death of our Great Zhao Zuo Shi have to do with Qin Chang'an Jun?"

Li Mu said solemnly: "The death of Zuo Shi is a cause of great sorrow for the whole world!"

"Qin Chang'an Jun is only asking me about Great Zhao on behalf of the people of the world."

Guo Chang took a step forward and said in a gloomy voice: "I am also saddened by the death of Zuo Shi."

"The Prime Minister was even more furious and shouted at the Queen Mother!"

"However, Zuo Shi has passed away. It is a humiliation to our Great Zhao for Qin Chang'an to hold us accountable for this."

"Not only does Wu'an Jun not protect the prestige of our Great Zhao, but he also helps Qin Chang'an Jun to embarrass our Great Zhao?"

"What Wu'an Jun did was inappropriate!" Can the details of Chu Long's death be made public?
The Zhao court officials knew the general situation in their hearts and had a tacit guess.

What kind of explanation does Ying Chengjiao want?
Do we have to let Chunping Jun and Queen Dowager Zhao apologize to the world?

Guo Chang had no doubt that if Zhao State really did this, the tacit understanding between Queen Mother Zhao and Guo Kai would inevitably collapse.

Queen Dowager Zhao, who is unable to have fun happily, will inevitably start to use her authority as the queen dowager to fight Guo Kai to a bloody end!
Li Mu shouted angrily, "Did Zuo Shi really die because of the Queen Mother?"

"The death of Zuo Shi is a tragedy for our Great Zhao, and there are too many strange things in it, but the court has not given any explanation."

"Qin Chang'an asked this question for the sake of justice, how can it be considered humiliating?"

Li Mu held back for a moment, then shouted even more angrily: "It's not just Qin Chang'an who has this question."

"Even I, the Lord, believe that the Great Zhao should give an explanation to the people of the world!"

Li Mu's move was almost tantamount to breaking off relations with Guo Kai, and was even destroying the unity of the State of Zhao!
However, behind Li Mu, several generals spoke in unison:
"We also believe that our great Zhao should give an explanation to the people of the world!"

Facing these generals who stood firmly behind Li Mu, Guo Chang wanted to curse them!

But surrounded by swords and weapons, Guo Chang finally took a deep breath and nodded, saying: "I will report this matter to the king truthfully!"

Li Mu snorted coldly: "Then go quickly."

"The food and fodder sent by the court is not sufficient, and the food in my army is not enough to entertain Lord Guo!"

Guo Chang looked at Li Mu deeply, then flicked his sleeves, turned around and left!

After Guo Chang left, Le Cheng rode his horse close to Li Mu and whispered, "If the commander refuses to accept the order, will it anger the prime minister and cause him to assassinate the commander?"

"I think the commander should send his trusted confidant back to Handan City quickly to persuade the court officials to protect himself!"

Li Mu shook his head: "It is not new for the court to give me instructions."

"This is not the first or second time that I have refused to accept the king's order."

"If the Prime Minister is angry, then be angry!"

"If the court really believes that my strategy cannot help our Great Zhao win, you can change the generals before the battle."

"However, the Prime Minister should have known that I would not heed such an absurd royal order, but he still issued such an absurd royal order."

Li Mu frowned slightly: "What exactly does the Prime Minister want to do?!"

No no no no!

Guo Kai wouldn't really think that Li Mu would obediently follow Wang's orders and fight!
King Dan of Zhao and King Yan of Zhao both issued royal orders asking Li Mu to change his strategy. Did Li Mu listen to them?
Never heard it once!
Li Mu would not even obey the orders of King Zhao, so how could he possibly obey the orders of Guo Kai who issued the orders in the name of King Zhao!
In Li Mu's opinion, Guo Kai should understand Li Mu's temper, but Guo Kai still issued such a ridiculous order.

Could it be that Guo Kai just wanted to humiliate himself?
Le Cheng whispered, "Could it be that the Prime Minister wants to use this to test whether the Commander is willing to obey the Prime Minister's orders?"

"Forgive me for saying so much."

"The commander-in-chief is not the enemy of the prime minister. It is only because the commander-in-chief has a large army, is good at fighting, and has a noble character that the prime minister is afraid of him."

"I think that if the commander-in-chief can be on good terms with the prime minister, he will not only no longer have to worry about chaos in the court, but he can even gain support from the court."

"This is a good thing for both the coach and the Great Zhao!"

As a former general of the State of Yan, Le Cheng defected to the State of Zhao only because he was deeply disappointed with King Xi of Yan. He had no hatred towards the State of Yan, nor any loyalty or affection towards the State of Zhao.

Therefore, Le Cheng did not care about the country of Zhao, nor did he care whether Guo Kai wanted to control the government of Zhao.

Le Cheng only cares about whether Li Mu will be framed because of this, which will lead to defeat in this battle!
Therefore, Le Cheng put forward a suggestion that could effectively solve Li Mu's dilemma.

There was no unsolvable hatred or irreconcilable conflict of interests between Guo Kai and Li Mu.

If Li Mu is willing to show closeness and goodwill to Guo Kai, then not only will Guo Kai no longer target Li Mu, he may even try his best to win over Li Mu, so as to control the heavy troops under Li Mu and Dai County which is actually controlled by Li Mu!

However, Li Mu said angrily without hesitation: "How can a tiger be with insects!"

"As the Lord of Wu'an of the Great Zhao, how can I beg for mercy from that despicable villain?"

"Don't mention this kind of advice again!"

In Li Mu's opinion, Le Cheng's advice was tantamount to asking Li Mu to be Guo Kai's dog!

How could a man as proud as Li Mu accept such humiliation!

Le Cheng opened his mouth and sighed helplessly: "Yes!"

Li Mu was unwilling to accept Le Cheng's suggestion. He also couldn't figure out what the meaning of Guo Kai's move was, so he simply stopped thinking about it and ordered in a deep voice: "Don't let these petty intrigues in the court affect the war."

"Order all units to set up camp and rest!"
-
at the same time.

Ying Chengjiao gazed at the dark night, and spoke with a hint of regret but as if it was a matter of course: "Lord Zhao Wuan, you really didn't chase after me."

Su Jiao said with a smile: "Your Majesty personally charged into the battle, Zhao Wuan must have thought that our main force would follow soon."

"How dare he send troops to hunt down the Lord!"

Ying Chengjiao shook his head: "Don't underestimate Zhao Wuanjun."

"I can only make Zhao Wuan hesitate for half a day by taking risks myself. This is the limit."

"If my prediction is correct, Lord Zhao Wuan has already discovered the strengths and weaknesses of our army."

"Zhao Wuan Jun will definitely not miss such a good opportunity."

"This battle will definitely be dangerous!"
