Gu Xun replied with some emotion, "A foolish king who is suspicious and feels that his royal power is unstable is inherently crazy, and it is not surprising that he will do anything."
Li Zuoche was silent.
He was just a little surprised at first, but he understood after he calmed down... indeed, nothing unusual about what he did.
"Are you going to kill me..." Li Mu shook his head and laughed, "If you want to kill me, come and try."
Li Mu didn't care much about the so-called murder. It was not easy to kill him.
He is one of the few who is a master of military strategists. He has strong military skills and martial arts. His strength is at the top of the list. Even a first-class killer with one or two snares can't easily take him down.
Just those rotten fish and shrimps under Zhao Wangqian want to kill him in the camp... Even without his personal guards, the success rate is very slim.
However, this does not mean that he can sit back and relax. On the contrary, this may very well be his end.
In any case, Zhao Wangqian is a king, a king who upholds etiquette, law and justice, and he is just a minister.
If Zhao Wangqian kills him, there will be chaos in the army. Wang Jian will not be able to miss this great opportunity...
If he is defeated, what's the point of his life?
The Zhao army was at the end of its war effort at this time and could not tolerate any mistakes. A major defeat would be equivalent to a landslide. It was so unstoppable that even if Li Mu was a man of heaven, it would be difficult for him to stop the collapse.
However, Li Mu did not show any anxiety or panic, and remained calm.
No one can help him with this matter, just wait quietly for everything to come, and then face it.
Nothing else is necessary.
When Gu Xun saw Li Mu's behavior, he was not too surprised. He spread his hands and said casually, "Although I know it is useless, I still ask General Li Mu as the national counselor of the Qin State, are you willing to surrender?"
"Well...I won't talk about the benefits and conditions. Anyway, I must have everything I should have."
"Hehehe..." Li Mu couldn't help laughing when he saw Gu Xun's insincere "persuasion" to surrender, "Mr. Gu is still so funny."
"It's a pity that since I am a general of Zhao, I have no reason to rebel against the country and surrender to Qin."
Looking at Li Mu, who still looked calm even though he knew the end was near, Gu Xun couldn't help but sigh to himself, maybe this was 'nine deaths and no regrets'.
Although he doesn't understand this so-called loyalty, Gu Xun respects Li Mu's choice.
"In that case..." Gu Xun turned his attention to Li Zuoche, who had been silent all the time, "General Li Mu, how do you plan to arrange the arrangements for Ling Sun?"
When Li Zuoche heard the mention of himself, he recovered from his daze and immediately responded, "I want to stay with my grandfather!"
Gu Xun pursed his lips and asked straightforwardly, "And then 'die' with him?"
Without waiting for Li Zuoche to answer, Gu Xun continued, "Regardless of the positive effects of your stay, just looking at your martial arts, I know that you will be a complete burden next time."
"Of course, you can be taken by the world-renowned military god General Li Mu at such a young age, which shows that your ability is by no means as shallow as your age. But I think General Li Mu still has lost Sima Shang as his right-hand man.
I won’t be able to find a few suitable deputies and have to keep you.”
"..." Li Zuoche opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything to refute.
Because his role is indeed not great, but I don’t want to be a ‘coward’ who runs away.
Seeing him like this, Gu Xun shrugged, "So I advise you to just listen to your grandfather's arrangements and leave."
"This is the most valuable choice."
At this time, Li Mu, who had been silently watching Gu Xun preach to his grandson, finally reacted. He glanced at Li Zuoche, who had lowered his head because of Gu Xun's words but still refused to let go, and did not take advantage of the situation to continue to lecture him.
.
Li Mu knew that his smart grandson already knew exactly what he should do, but... he just couldn't say it out loud.
He can understand the young man's stubbornness, because he doesn't want to be a 'deserter'.
"Mr. Gu asked, does he have some thoughts about Zuo Che?"
Gu Xun nodded politely and admitted, "That's right."
"I am quite short of talented people now, and I think he is quite good."
But Li Zuoche raised his head and shouted, "I will never surrender to the Qin army!"
Then he lowered his head to pretend to be an ostrich.
When Li Mu heard this, he stroked his beard and felt a little moved.
Li Zuoche is still young, and his military skills and strategies cannot be wasted. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a force to join. Gu Xun is undoubtedly a good choice, at least the safety issue is very guaranteed.
He didn't mind the so-called dispute between Qin and Zhao. His choice to be loyal to Zhao and resist Qin was just his choice. It didn't mean that Li Zuoche had to follow the same path as him.
But this child is so resistant, so it’s not easy to force him too much.
Gu Xun explained at this time, "I have no intention of letting you join the Qin Army."
"Huh?" Li Zuoche raised his head and looked at Gu Xun doubtfully.
Gu Xun spread his hands and said, "At least for a long period of time, I have no intention of getting involved in Qin's military affairs."
"Then why are you recruiting me?" Li Zuoche asked subconsciously.
Gu Xun replied, "My people are now attacking Baiyue. If you are willing to follow me, that is, join Liusha, you will also go to Baiyue to lead troops to fight."
"But what we are leading is not the Central Plains army, but the Yue army."
"Baiyue?" Li Zuoche repeated hesitantly.
Not interfering with the Qin army, but using his personal power to conquer Baiyue privately... What does this Qin national advisor want to do?
Looking for an opportunity to rebel?
A bit unrealistic, right?
Li Mu was also a little curious on the side.
After seeing the power of Gu Xun's sword, he certainly wouldn't think that the other party would rebel and become king.
But...what is his purpose in cultivating power in Baiyue?
Gu Xun did not mean to explain the confusion to the ancestors and grandsons, and further said, "Of course, I said that this is only temporary, and Qin will still be unable to avoid it in the future. However, the Qin State at that time, and the Qin State at this time, will definitely
It’s no longer the same.”
"The most important thing is that I will not restrict your freedom. If you don't want to at that time, you can decide whether to stay or leave."
This condition can be said to be very favorable.
Li Zuoche stopped saying anything and lowered his head again, but his attitude was expressed.
Li Mu knew that his grandson had already made a decision, so he smiled and said, "Zuo Che, it's not early, you should go back and rest."
Upon hearing his grandfather's expulsion, Li Zuoche remained silent. He silently stood up and saluted Gu Xun and Li Mu respectively, and then left the commander's tent.
Gu Xun and Li Mu are left.
The old general looked at Gu Xun and said solemnly, "From now on, Mr. Gu will take care of this child Zuo Che."
Gu Xun nodded, "Don't worry, General Li Mu."
When Li Mu heard this, he stroked his beard happily, and his tough, rough face showed an uncontrollable joy.
Regardless of his fate, at least his grandson's life is safe.
"Mr. Gu just said that reminding me is just the first thing, so what about the other things?" Li Zuoche's matter was settled, and Li Mu immediately asked again.
Gu Xun slowly said the name of another person that Li Mu was worried about.
