Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 62
"Li Mu has been in the frontier army for a long time, and the officers and men in the army are very close to him. Now that Li Mu has turned his back on him, rashly removing his military power will easily lead to a mutiny.

Nowadays, communication is inconvenient during the war, and Li Mudang still doesn't know about the Handan matter.When Zhao Jia fled yesterday, Li Mu's family members did not follow him. It can be seen that Li Mu has long since disregarded the king. Even Young Master Jia thought that Li Mu was leading the army outside, and the king did not dare to touch his family easily.

If you don't pretend to encourage and reward him, make him think that the king will no longer hold him accountable for his defeat, and keep Li Mu safe first, and make him feel that Zhao Guo can't do without him now, and it will definitely not be against him.

Paralyze Li Mu, prevent him from jumping over the wall in a hurry, and go directly to Gongzi Jia.

Then choose a loyal and brave general, and go to deliver orders with several strong men.When Li Mu accepts the king's order, his vigilance must be the lowest, and there will be no soldiers around him. At this time, he can take advantage of his unpreparedness to rush up and take him down.

Although Li Mu is brave, his two fists are no match for four hands, so he will be able to succeed in one fell swoop. "

Guo Kai said slowly. "As long as Li Mu is captured, the army will be fine."

In Guo Kai's strategy, Li Mu has been completely regarded as a traitor and traitor, and all plans are designed around Li Mu's already rebellious heart.

Now, the state of Zhao can be said to be at the end of its rope.Not only is there no general in the court, but there are also very few soldiers left.

Li Mu can be said to be the last obstacle on Qin's way to destroy Zhao. As long as Li Mu is gone, Zhao Guo may not last long.Even Li Mu, who is revered as the god of war by later generations, feels a little powerless in the current situation, and he is just trying to hold on.

If Li Mu hadn't been grateful for the kindness of the former king, and tried his best to conquer Zhao's crumbling country, it would be hard to say that Zhao Guocun would not exist today.

"Guo's deceitful strategy is even more lonely. In this way, Li Mu'an will be able to succeed!"

Zhao Wangqian was obviously very satisfied with Guo Kai's strategy.

In his opinion, this is an upright minister who is dedicated to the country, who thinks clearly about the ins and outs of the matter, and completely thinks about himself.

"Li Mu is a rebellious person, please seal up the mansions of Li Mu and Zhao Jia, confiscate their belongings, and police the world." Guo Kai continued.

Li Mu's son Jia was convicted, and the family of the son Jiahe escaped, but Li Mu's family still lives in Handan City.Li Mu and Young Master Jia are not in the same party, so Young Master Jia did not bring Li Mu's relatives with him when he fled.

It was originally evidence that Li Mu was not involved with Prince Jia, but in Guo's opening, he directly defined this matter as one of the manifestations of Li Mu's self-respect in supporting soldiers, precisely because he looked down on you, King Zhao, and thought that you, Zhao Qian, would not dare to touch me Only then did he dare to stay in Handan.

Because of Li Mu's involvement, although Zhao Wang didn't think of it for a while, his family will inevitably escape bad luck in the future.This matter had nothing to do with Guo Kai, but in Xu Cheng's message, Ziying demanded that Li Mu's family must be kept.

Therefore, Guo Kai directly spoke in advance and asked Ying to search the residence of Li Mutong's son Jia for convenience.

At the same time, they can also take the opportunity to follow the strategy provided by Xu Cheng, and place some "prohibited items" such as strong bows and crossbows, weapons and armor in the mansion of the two of them to further confirm their conspiracy.

"What Guo Xiang said is very serious, please trouble Guo Xiang to run!"

"Guo Kai respectfully obeys the king's order, but I don't know how Li Mu's family will deal with it?" Guo Kai asked cautiously.

"If you're such a rebellious minister and thieves' relatives, just kill them directly." Zhao Wangqian replied casually without even thinking about it. In his opinion, the life and death of several family members is not necessary at all.

When Guo Kai heard it, he let out a sigh of relief, and it would be easy to kill him on the spot.At that time, just find a few prisoners of similar size from the death row, and just make a mess of your face.In case King Zhao suddenly rose up and wanted to see what Li Mu's family looked like, it would be difficult for him, Guo Kai, to keep them.

"No! The minister will do it now." Guo Kai retreated after finishing speaking.

Who to send to Bairen City to capture Li Mu and command the army is a question worth considering for Zhao Wangqian, after all, it is related to whether his country is stable.

Even Li Mu, whom he relied on as the pillar of the country, rebelled. This time the candidate must be carefully selected, and absolutely nothing will go wrong.

In his opinion, the one who is most loyal and will never betray him is the false prime minister, Guo Kai.If it weren't for his mother and son who needed to rely on the prestige of Xiangguo Chunping to stabilize the court, he would have promoted Guo Kai to the position of Xiangguo long ago.

However, Guo Kai was a civil servant, so it was obviously inappropriate to send him to capture Li Mu.

After thinking about it, Zhao Wangqian set his sights on Zhao Cong, who also belonged to the Zhao family.

Zhao Cong is one of the few generals in Zhao's clan with experience in commanding an army, and he is at a critical moment of life and death.Zhao Wangqian felt that Zhao Cong, who was also a member of the Zhao family, might be more worthy of his trust in commanding the army.

Moreover, Zhao Cong had worked with Li Mu during the Battle of Yi'an, so he knew Li Mu well.

Even Li Mu, whom he regards as the pillar of the country, has rebelled, and the others, Zhao Wang, don't believe it at all.

Dang even sent someone to announce Zhao Cong into the palace, ordering to replace Li Mu's army and the details of how to take him down.

The two discussed for a long time, basically Zhao Wangqian's "plagiarism" of Guo Kai's strategy unilaterally taught the opportunity face to face.

To say that this Zhao Cong is very similar to his predecessor Zhao Kuo if he finds someone to compare him with.He has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and he thinks he has the ability to know the world.However, he was luckier than Zhao Kuo in that his first lead was not to lead an army alone, but to be Li Mu's lieutenant general. Although he put forward many ideas based on the knowledge he learned from books during the battle, none of them were adopted. .

After the war, Li Mu was conferred the title of Lord Wu'an because of his meritorious service, and Zhao Cong just had some seniority. In his opinion, Li Mu's victory was just a matter of good luck. Zhao Cong could do the same if he was Zhao Cong. better.

Therefore, upon hearing King Zhao's order, Zhao Cong could be said to be ecstatic.This time, not only did he realize his dream of leading an army alone, but he was also able to get rid of Li Mu, who had been blocking him from showing his talents.

After touting King Zhao's strategy, he immediately made a bold statement to King Zhao: "The Qin army on the North Road will be defeated within ten days, and the siege of Handan will be resolved within a month."

Even Zhao Wangqian seemed a little ecstatic under Zhao Cong's confidence, and even regretted not being able to reuse such a talented general earlier.

Zhao Cong, who couldn't wait to "show his talents" that night, took Zhao Wang's commanding tiger charm and Wang Ling, and ordered a group of soldiers to go north.

At the same time, Guo Kai was not idle.

As soon as they came out of the palace, they called Xu Cheng, and together with him they led a search of Li Mutong's son Jia's mansion.

Guo Kai went to search in person, of course, to find a large number of communication evidence and forbidden weapons prepared by Guo Kai in advance in the two mansions.

As for Li Mu's family members, they were secretly placed in Guo Kai's mansion after being replaced.
