"I will take good care of Yunzhong and Jiuyuan!" Yan Yan promised seriously.

Seeing that Yan Yan understood what he meant, Li Mu's eyes were a little red. If the Zhao State was still the Zhao State during the time of King Zhao Wuling, he would not do this, and it was impossible to do this, but the current Zhao State is no longer the same as before.

"Let's go. It's been so long and it's time for them to come up with the results of their discussion!" Li Mu pulled Yan Yan back to the Chinese army's tent.

Seeing Li Mu return with Yan Yan, the shogunate, which was originally as noisy as a busy city, also became quiet. Chang Shi handed the results of the discussion to Li Mu and explained in a low voice.

Li Mu listened to Chang Shi's report, nodded slightly, then compared the map, thought for a while, and then made some adjustments.

"Look at me, then look at you!" Seeing this scene, Yan Yan felt a little unhappy again. His long history is so capable, how about you?

Seeing Yan Yan's gaze, Yu Xin showed no embarrassment and spread his hands, "I think so too, but there is no one under the lord's command. What can I do?"

"..." Yan Yan was silent. It seemed that there was really no one under him for Yu Xin to take care of.

The Zhu family is a partner, and people like Li Ren, Li Xin, and Luo Bing were all borrowed before.

"Everyone, please sit down!" After Li Mu finished the deduction, he raised his hand to signal everyone to sit down.

Because it was an impromptu meeting, no one was wearing armor, they were all wearing regular clothes, so everyone knelt down in their respective positions.

"Sir, we have already discussed it!" Li Mu said with a smile, and then asked Chang Shi to pull up the remarked map.

The map marked the positions of the Hu armies and the Zhao armies, with the focus on Lin Hu's position.

"We still don't plan to let Lin Hu go. This is Handan's request, and there's nothing we can do about it!" Li Mu explained.

Yan Yan nodded. Li Mu must complete the strategic goals set by Handan.

"But..." Li Mu paused and looked at Yan Yan.

"What you want, sir, is to give the impression that Lin Huying is our intermediary. We can definitely do this!" Li Mu walked to the map.

"Here, here, we will encounter the Xiongnu and Linhu armies, and we will attack the Xiongnu army with all our strength and strive to leave no one behind, but we do not intend to directly eat this Linhu army, but will kill them Rush to the barbarian camp!"

"And here, here, we have the ability to eat them, but we can let Lin Hu go. This will not affect our strategic layout!"

Li Mu took his command stick and clicked on the map one by one.

"However, this intention is too obvious, so here, we will defeat Lin Hu's main force, but we will let them go!"

Li Mu continued, expressing their attitude and thoughts.

They would let Lin Hu go, but they would not let go of Lin Hu's main force, and they could also achieve the results Yan Yan wanted.

Yan Yan nodded happily. He didn't care whether Lin Hu died or not. What they wanted was to make the Chinese army doubt Lin Hu, but Li Mu was able to make the same illusion without affecting the overall situation.

Although Lin Hu's main force was defeated, many small tribes could not withstand it and were let go!

At that time, all the Chinese army will see is that Zhao Jun let Lin Hu go again and again, while ignoring the fact that Lin Hu's main force was also attacked.

This is what makes three people a tiger!

After being let go so many times, and then the main force was beaten, who dares to believe that you didn't act and direct it yourself? Yan Yan also once again envied Li Mu's general shogunate. He just made a request, and the entire shogunate could take everything into consideration and come up with an absolutely sound plan.

Party A makes a proper request, and Party B gives a perfect plan.

Looking at Li Mu's general shogunate, Yan Yan became even more greedy. He looked around at the counselors and generals of the shogunate. It was so hot and real.

"Are you satisfied, sir?" Li Mu asked with a smile.

"Satisfied, very satisfied!" Yan Yan nodded.

This plan not only perfectly achieved my goal, but also took into account many things that I had not considered.

For example, when they let Lin Hu go, they deliberately left a letter for them to bring to Lin Hu, Shanyu, or what they said to General Lin Hu on the battlefield, or said hello to Shanyu on behalf of the general.

Once this kind of operation was done, even if the letter was blank, Lin Hushanyu couldn't explain it clearly even if he wanted to.

"As long as you are satisfied, sir!" Li Mu also smiled and nodded.

"However, we found something, I hope you can get it from the barbarians!" Li Mu suddenly said.

"What?" Yan Yan was stunned for a moment, what could be worthy of Li Mu's covetous eyes.

"Come here, bring it up!" Li Mu shouted towards the door.

An attendant immediately ran in from the door, holding a curled-edged weapon in his hands.

Yan Yan recognized it at a glance as a unique weapon of the barbarians, a scimitar.

"This is the scimitar of the Hu people, but it is different from the bronze we are used to in the Central Plains. It is made of iron ore, so the blade is lighter, sharper and tougher!" Li Mu introduced the characteristics of the scimitar.

Yan Yan suddenly reacted. As a time traveler, he was used to the universality of iron tools, but he had forgotten that in this era, iron tools were not yet popular, and even iron smelting technology was not so developed and valued.

After thinking about it carefully, I realized that the smelting technology of ironware was brought back from the Western Regions by Zhang Qian during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. After the refinement of Chinese craftsmen, ironware became popular.

And where did the Hu people's iron smelting technology come from? It was passed down from the Dayue clan!
  "So, the general wants me to get the iron-smelting technology of the Hu people?" Yan Yan understood what Li Mu wanted.

Maybe the Hu people themselves didn't notice the terribleness of iron tools, but some Hu tribes were using them, and more of them imitated the Central Plains people who used bronze castings or showed off the metal and stone forgings.

However, Li Mu has already noticed the changes that the emergence of iron tools will bring.

"Yeah!" Li Mu nodded.

Yan Yan was confused again, and Li Mu noticed, why didn't the iron weapons spread in the Zhao Kingdom after Li Mu destroyed Lou Fan, Lin Hu, and Dan Lin?
  Could it be that Li Mu didn't get the iron smelting technology after annihilating the Hu tribe?
  This is also unlikely!

Then Yan Yan suddenly thought that after Li Mu destroyed the Hu tribe, he had been fighting against Yan and Qin. He had no chance to implement iron smelting technology in Zhao, and Zhao might not pay attention to it.

Or maybe the iron smelting technology mastered by the Hu people today is not very skilled and the output is not high, so it was replaced by the mature bronze technology.

"Okay!" Yan Yan couldn't figure it out and didn't think much about it. When he went back and got the Hu people's iron smelting technology, he would know the root cause.
