"There is nothing wrong with your tactics!" Late at night, Li Mu rushed to the front line with his guards and went directly to the big tent.
There were only two people in the entire tent, Pang Nuan and Han Xin.
"No one is allowed within a hundred steps!" Seeing that Han Xin was still dissatisfied, Li Mu ordered directly.
"Here!" The guards left immediately and set up a guard outside the big tent to prevent anyone from approaching.
"Since my command was not wrong, why did you have to call a halt and replace me?" Han Xin couldn't understand and asked Li Mu directly.
"Because, even if you win, you will lose, and you will even be buried with the entire army!" Li Mu said solemnly.
"Why?" Han Xin became even more confused.
"You are not part of Qin's army to begin with. You are a temporary army recruited from outside the staff. Moreover, the mark of Zhao on you is too heavy!" Li Mu sighed.
"What do you mean?" Han Xin still couldn't understand.
"You are still young and have never been exposed to court battles. Do you think this observation group is here to see you win?" Li Mu looked at Han Xin and asked.
"Isn't it?" Han Xin frowned.
"Yes and no!" Li Mu shook his head.
"You can win, but you can't win either!" Li Mu continued.
"Zhao Di temporarily recruited a large army with a strength of more than 100,000, and it was able to defeat Chu's decisive battle troops. If you were the King of Qin, would you trust Zhao Di?" Pang Nuan reminded Han Xin in a low voice.
This was also the reason why he figured out Li Mu's sudden arrival.
Because they were too strong, so strong that they made Xianyang restless, otherwise King Qin would not have sent the Jin Lingjian envoy to watch the battle.
The purpose of Special Envoy Jin Lingjian's coming here is not for Han Xin at all, but for this army!
If the Zhao army annihilates the Tenglong Legion in a devastating manner, it means that the Zhao army, which has removed its armor and returned to the field for many years, is still one of the strongest decisive battle units in the entire world.
Moreover, it only took them less than three months from recruitment to assembly to joining the battle order. How could Xianyang not be afraid of such wartime mobilization capabilities?
This also means that although Yan and Zhao are now affiliated with the Qin State, if they want to rebel, Xianyang may not even have time to react, and the entire Yan and Zhao have already declared independence.
Therefore, the purpose of Jin Lingjian's special envoy coming here is to observe the combat effectiveness of this army. If the combat effectiveness is insufficient, then they will be allowed to exist. If the combat effectiveness exceeds expectations and Xianyang's control, then they will not be allowed to exist!
One can imagine the fate of an army that is not allowed to exist.
Han Xin suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. If he followed his fighting style, the bravery and strength of the entire Zhao army would be fully demonstrated, and his excellent commanding ability would become a life-threatening talisman.
It is no wonder that although the envoys from the observation group were enthusiastic towards him, they were somewhat distant and alienated. Especially the special envoy Jin Lingjian, who had never communicated with him from the beginning to the end.
The fundamental reason is that the purpose of the mission at the beginning was to examine the combat effectiveness of this army, not Han Xin's own outstanding abilities.
"So, we can only lose this battle?" Han Xin looked at Li Mu in confusion.
Pang Nuan also looked at Li Mu. If they could only lose, then why would they participate in this battle?
The new army of the State of Zhao is the pride of Yan and Zhao, and the backbone of the martyrs of Yan and Zhao. If they are defeated at their hands, what will they take back to see the children of Yan and Zhao, and what will they take to meet the emperor?
"Why should we lose? We not only want to win, but we want to win a big victory, a crushing victory!" Li Mu said calmly.
"Ah?" Pang Nuan and Han Xin looked at each other. You are the one who wants to lose, and now you are the one who says you can't win. What do you want to do?
"Zhao Di wants to win, and he wants to win beautifully, but you also want to give King Qin a sense of participation?"
"It's like a superior officer asking you to make suggestions, memorials, and strategies. If you do everything perfectly, doesn't that mean the superior officer is dispensable?"
Li Mu thought for a while and gave an example.
Pang Nuan looked at Li Mu and thought about his past. It seemed that he finally understood why he was not reused by King Zhao Wuling and King Zhao Xiaocheng.
Because he can often refute the two kings to shame, it doesn't matter. Wenzhan, the tactics he proposed are also perfect, but just because they are too perfect, so... no need!
Not all superiors can tolerate a subordinate whose ability exceeds their own. Even those who have been wise for centuries may be able to tolerate it when they are young, but they may not be able to when they are old.
"Therefore, when writing a memorial, you can come up with a perfect plan, but there must be some flaws in the writing, even just a few words wrong!" Li Mu explained.
"What's the use of this?" Han Xin was still a newbie and couldn't understand.
"Because no one who can be a superior is stupid. You can think that they can't come up with a perfect plan, but you can't think that they are really stupid and can't see the quality of the plan. And this flaw of yours is for him to get involved. The key is, even if he just corrects a few typos, it is still participation!" Li Mu explained.
Han Xin accepted the instruction with an open mind. No wonder he had no way to surrender. It turned out to be this reason. The superior was worried that he would not be able to suppress him!
"But, what does this have to do with our war?" Han Xin no longer felt dissatisfied at the beginning. If no one taught him these things, he might have to hit a wall everywhere, and it would take him half his life to realize it.
"Yes, it has a lot to do with it. You young people may not have studied the fighting methods of us veterans, but Wang Jian, Meng Wu and Da Qin's Guowei Mansion have all studied it. So in this battle, I will teach you how Zhao Guo's new army fought. Use it!" Li Mu said with a smile.
"Please give me some advice from Mr. Wu An!" Han Xin nodded, eager to know how Li Mu used his troops.
…
"The Qin army suddenly retreated thirty miles!" Among the Tenglong Legion, Xiang Yan received the information and was a little confused for a while.
The Qin army was powerful, and although he said that the combat power of Zhao's old troops was not strong, he knew that they were not ordinary troops.
Therefore, the sudden retreat of the Qin army left him a little confused for a while.
"The enemy retreats and we advance!" Xiang Yan didn't think too much. After the scouts confirmed that there was no ambush, he chose to advance to improve the little remaining morale.
"Look, I'll only demonstrate it once!" Li Mu stood on the general stage and gave orders.
Han Xin nodded and looked at it seriously.
"Catapults, bed crossbows, and siege crossbows are ready! Three rains of arrows!" Li Mu ordered.
The sharpshooters in Zhao's old Shesheng camp were stunned when they heard this familiar order. No one had given such an order for many years. Their memories suddenly awakened and they missed three arrows. They searched for the direction of the enemy's general and army.
.
"Let it go!" Li Mu ordered again.
With the positioning of sharpshooters, the soldiers of the Shengsheng Battalion do not need to aim at all, they only need to aim in the direction.
