Ps: (3/14) I don’t even owe 20, so I really don’t have the motivation to pay it back. I can pay it off in two or three days if I’m serious about it. So (?▽?) where’s the monthly pass, and where’s the catch-up???
Therefore, Li Mu wanted more. Why did he separate the Huns and annihilate them all? It was because he wanted these Huns to be useless!
The Huns are in the north of Qin State. It is impossible for him to lead the Zhao army to the northern frontier of Qin State to occupy the Xiongnu territory. Then after the battlefield is calmed down, they may not have time to swallow up the Xiongnu territory, and they will spit it out and hand it over to Qin State.
, to make wedding clothes for the State of Qin.
Therefore, he directly killed the Xiongnu as a gift to the Qin army who should have also dispatched.
The remaining barbarian coalition forces are his target. Even if they have a map, they are definitely not as familiar with the grassland roads as the barbarians. They have lost their army according to the map more than once or twice.
"General, do you want the barbarian coalition forces to lead the way?" Everyone understood Li Mu's plan.
Li Mu's real purpose is to use the legs of these barbarian armies to lead the way for the army, chase them back to their respective tribes, then destroy them and occupy them!
"Yes!" Li Mu did not deny it. He did not reveal his plan until the overall situation was decided.
"A famous general in the world! He looks like a military god!" Fu Nian looked at Li Mu's figure and commented in a low voice.
Li Mu's strategic vision has jumped out of the current battlefield and planned the future trend.
In today's battle, everyone was lamenting the bravery of the Pioneer Battalion, but no one noticed that Li Mu was already quietly commanding the army to divide the barbarian coalition into three parts that were not connected from beginning to end and could not respond to each other.
It wasn't until they returned to the sand table that everyone realized that Li Mu had unknowingly completed such a large layout.
"The trapped beasts are still fighting to the death. Therefore, we must also be careful of the desperate counterattack of the Huns' army!" Li Mu said, pointing to the canyon into which the Huns' army was forced.
Everyone looked attentively. Although Li Mu's layout was huge, the premise was that they could really kill and defeat the main force of these barbarians!
"I'm going to take their heads and build a temple ten miles away!" Li Mu said murderously, and then pointed at the surrounding camps surrounding the Xiongnu army.
The generals and generals of each battalion pricked up their ears and listened carefully to Li Mu's military orders, not daring to miss any of them.
Everyone is also aware of the risk of a trapped beast still fighting, and Li Mu is also clearer. If it is normal, they can surround three but one and let some of the Huns escape. This will minimize the Huns' resistance.
But this time, the entire Zhao State and Qin State joined forces to attack the northern barbarians. Qin State did not let any barbarians come over, so naturally they could not let the Huns go back.
Except for the Yan State, they could not stop Dong Hu if he did not fall into the trap and enter the encirclement. They could only wait and see whether Dong Hu would join the battlefield and fight to the death with them or retreat on his own initiative to cause trouble for the Yan State.
Therefore, after the battle on the first day, the intensity of subsequent battles dropped sharply, except for the battles necessary to further reduce the scope of activities of the barbarian army.
The entire battlefield was just a small-scale friction, driving the barbarians into an ambush circle, consuming the opponent's food, grass and morale.
"The battlefield is different from what I thought!" Fu Nian sighed.
The battlefield he imagined was that both sides deployed all their forces and then started a formation battle.
However, the war lasted for three months and there was still no victory or defeat.
The vanguard battalion in the rear also put on thick leather jackets, which Li Mu had prepared long ago. They had long been prepared for long-term operations, so they even had cotton-padded clothes for the winter.
However, the barbarian army was different. Their original intention was to go south to plunder and then return to their respective tribes to spend a prosperous winter, so they did not bring heavy winter clothes.
"When the first snow falls this winter and the entire grassland is covered with heavy snow, it will be time to see who will win or lose!" Jin Yao and Fu Nian discussed while looking at the army's movement route on the map.
The Zhao army tightly surrounded the barbarian army and did not give the other side a chance to break out. The Donghu army also came to rescue several times, but was driven back by Li Mu.
"It's Li who should be worried.
General Mu!" Jin Yao looked at Li Mu in the general's position and whispered.
Just three days ago, an urgent report came from HD, and a military report from the Qin Army came from Lishi Fortress.
Qin's 500,000-strong army has advanced into Longcheng and occupied the entire Hetao area, including the Qilian Mountains, which were also occupied by the Qin army. King Zuoxian and Wang Ting of the Xiongnu were also driven to eat the snow alone by the Qin army.
So Mr. Zhao was also anxious, and sent one edict after another asking Li Mu about the situation on the battlefield. At first it was condolences and consultation, but later it turned into questioning.
In particular, it is said that the State of Qin has sent Dian Ke Qing Dun Ruo to envoy the State of Zhao to show off its military power. There are many people asking whether the State of Zhao needs Qin to send troops to help.
So one can imagine how anxious Mr. Zhao is now.
Only Lian Po, Le Cheng and Zhao Bao worked together to suppress him and were determined not to come and replace Li Mu, so Zhao Liang gave up.
However, two days later, King Zhao's secret message came again, still asking Li Mu when the war would end.
"Sir!" That night, Li Mulai found Jin Yao.
"General!" Jin Yao was also a little surprised as to why Li Mu came to him, and he still called him Young Master.
"I dare you to ask me to do something for you!" Li Mu took Jin Yao to a deserted leeward place and saluted and asked.
"General, please speak!" Jin Yao straightened his expression and asked.
"The king has sent Young Master Yan to take over the last general's place!" Li Mu sighed and said.
"Are Zhao *** afraid that he has some serious illness?" Jin Yao was dumbfounded. When the army was winning steadily, he suddenly sent a son of the second generation ancestor to replace Li Mu. Did he think he would win?
"The king is indeed ill!" Li Mu looked at Jin Yao in surprise and said. Zhao Bao and Lian Po secretly informed him of King Zhao's illness. Unexpectedly, the Mo family also had their own channels to find out.
"???" Jin Yao was dumbfounded. He just complained, but he was not cursing Zhao ***.
"The king is suffering from a serious illness and will die!" Li Mu took out the secret letter from Lian Po and Zhao Bao and handed it to Jin Yao.
Jin Yao took the secret letter and read it carefully. He was completely speechless. When did he become so smart?
"So, it has always been a taboo in the court for the king to die while the foreign general holds a heavy army. Therefore, the king sent Young Master Yan to replace the last general because he was worried that the foreign general would take the opportunity to rebel!" Li Mu said.
"So, what is the general going to do?" Jin Yao asked.
"I want to invite the young master to pretend to be a trap and intercept the king's envoy halfway. The general has been plotting against the barbarians for many years. We must not let others do whatever they want. Moreover, this is the safety of the lives of the soldiers of the three armies and hundreds of thousands of people at the border, even if they are accused of treason.
The last general will also shoulder the responsibility!" Li Mu directly knelt down in front of Jin Yao and begged.
Jin Yao shuddered. Facing the barbarian army of 300,000 people, Li Mu was able to talk and laugh happily and remain calm. At this time, he actually knelt in front of him.
He could see that Li Mu was not doing it for his own reputation, nor did he have any intention of rebellion. He was really kneeling for the lives of the soldiers of the three armies and hundreds of thousands of people at the border.
Jin Yao could also think about the character of Zhao Yan who came to replace Li Mu, or whoever came must make a quick decision because this was HD's requirement.
However, the trapped beasts are not something that can be annihilated in a short time. Once the opponent activates the Last Stand uff, the outcome is unpredictable. With Zhao Yan's military ability, it is impossible to stop the barbarian army who are fighting to the death.
At that time, the good situation will change in an instant, and the barbarian army that has escaped from trouble will inevitably kill all the Zhao army to take revenge, then go south to break through the pass, and bloodbath the northern region of Zhao.
