"Sima Shang..." Li Mu murmured in a sad tone, and then said, "It seems that the kid from Zuo Che was just a whim of Mr. Gu, and the real purpose is Sima Shang."
Gu Xun nodded, "Yes, General Sima is a rare talent. If possible, I think it is better not to waste talents in vain."
"Well..." Li Mu pondered for a moment and replied, "Unlike me, he doesn't have much sense of belonging to the Kingdom of Zhao, and he also hates King Zhao deeply."
"Back then, he joined the army just to fight against the wolves in the north."
"This time I went south to conquer the Qin Dynasty, it was only because of my friendship with me for more than ten years. If it were me...he would probably leave directly."
Gu Xun shrugged, "Isn't it just right to leave Zhao and join the quicksand."
"Haha, from my point of view, joining Mr. Gu is a good choice for him." Li Mu then changed the topic, "However, the degree of his resistance to Mr. Gu's identity as the national master of Qin State is probably going to be a good choice for him."
On top of that kid in the car."
The two have known each other for more than ten years, and Li Mu, who is more than ten years older than Sima Shang, is both a Shangguan general and a relative like a father and brother to him.
Once Li Mu died, in Sima Shang's eyes, both Qin and Zhao were the culprits.
"That's why I went to see you first, General Li Mu." To this, Gu Xun replied disapprovingly, "In this world, you are probably the only person who can persuade General Sima on this matter, General Li Mu.
."
"My conditions are the same for General Sima."
"If he is willing to get involved in the military and political affairs of the Qin State, it will be no problem. If he is not willing, he can decide whether to stay or stay on his own. Or if he wants to continue to guard Northern Xinjiang, I can also arrange for him to go."
"In short, people are free, I don't force anything."
Tick...tick...tick...
Li Mu's rough fingers tapped lightly on the table, and after a moment, he finally responded.
"I, can you fix a letter and send it to Sima Shang?"
Li Mu didn't know whether he should continue to influence Sima Shang's life, but after all, unlike him, he was still young and shouldn't retire and shed his armor early, so he decided to persuade him one last time.
Of course, Li Mu only suggested him and would not force him.
If you really don’t want to get involved in the chaos of the world, then you might as well just quietly be an ordinary person.
Gu Xun smiled and thanked him, "Thank you, General Li Mu."
After that, Gu Xun left Zhao Jun’s camp with Li Mu’s handwriting and his grandson.
As for the handwriting, Gu Xun naturally kept it by himself, while Li Zuoche was transported to Lingnan Baiyue overnight through the channel of quicksand.
The reason why Gu Xun set his sights on Sima Shang and even gave Li Zuoche as a gift was that, on the one hand, talents were rare and he did not want to waste them, and on the other hand, he was in urgent need of them.
The war situation in Fujian and Vietnam has been very anxious recently.
With Han Fei stabilizing the rear, Wei Zhuang commanding the army, and Mo Ya dispatching intelligence, the invasion of the Minyue Kingdom was proceeding steadily, and Wu Zhu's territory was also being eaten away bit by bit.
However, although Han Fei did a lot of risky things to speed up the process, the time spent was not satisfactory.
There is nothing we can do about it. The Fujian-Vietnam army is indeed a tough nut to crack.
However, the biggest problem lies with the leader of the army, Wei Zhuang - he will soon have to rush back to Guigu to fight with his senior brother, Guigu Zongjian Ge Nie, in a life-and-death battle to determine the new Guiguzi.
Gu Xun remembered that the fight to the death between the two brothers ended in nothing because Gui Guzi disappeared and Gai Nie Wuxin and Wei Zhuang were competing for life and death.
How Wei Zhuang goes to his senior brother to ask for a duel will be a matter later. Anyway, at the moment, this matter will take up at most half a month of Wei Zhuang's time.
If it were normal, it would be okay for Wei Zhuang to leave for a while, but this war cannot be stopped at will.
When the two armies are fighting, if they have time, there may be no movement for a month or two, but if there is a fight, it will start in minutes.
Unfortunately, the Fujian-Vietnam army is currently fighting fiercely with Tianze, and there is no intention of a truce.
Moreover, Han Fei was unwilling to suspend the attack.
In any case, Tianze's foundation is too weak. Even if Han Fei is more capable, he will not be able to completely subdue all the Yue tribes in the occupied area in such a short period of time.
If we conquer the whole of Fujian and Yue in one go, and then slowly clean up the mountains and rivers, these problems will not be a big deal. If we continue to weaken and fail three times, allowing Wu Zhu to calm down, it will easily form a tug of war.
By then, it will be difficult to deal with, and I’m afraid the time and energy spent will be doubled again.
The price is a bit heavy.
Gu Xun had no choice but to find some people who could replace Wei Zhuang.
Even if you put aside the immediate urgency, the matter itself is necessary.
Liusha's talent reserve is indeed too empty. The only thing that is not lacking is the spy killer type. Gu Xun has been looking for a few years before Mo Crow and the others can 'recruit' some talented people according to the list. p>
However, at this moment, the most suitable candidates for the military talents that Quicksand needs are naturally Li Mu and Sima Shang, who are about to suffer.
Li Mu didn't need to think about it. After the fall of the Zhao Kingdom, they concentrated on planting peach trees in the north.
Naturally, the only one left is Sima Shang.
This is also another main purpose of Gu Xun coming to the Qin-Zhao battlefield.
………………
Seven days later, just when Wang Jian was ready for a decisive battle with Zhao Jun, Zhao Wangqian's new envoy was about to arrive at Jingxing Pass.
This time, Zhao Wangqian directly selected the candidate who succeeded Li Mu as the general--Zhao Cong, a descendant of the Zhao royal family.
He was one of the first people in the Zhao royal family to fall in love with Zhao Wangqian, and he knew how to flatter Zhao Wangqian, so he was deeply trusted by Zhao Wangqian.
On the one hand, I trust Zhao Cong’s loyalty, and on the other hand, I also trust Zhao Cong’s ability...
In a sense, this proves that Zhao Wangqian is indeed a bloodline of the Zhao royal family, just like his grandfather, King Zhao Xiaocheng.
There was Lian Po before, and now there is Li Mu.
There was Zhao Kuo before, and now there is Zhao Cong.
The only lesson that mankind can learn from history is that mankind cannot learn any lessons from history.
Hegel is sincere! (Note: The original meaning of Hegel’s sentence is not actually understood in this way.)
Zhao Cong did not directly go to Jingxingguan with the envoy of King Zhao to receive military power.
After the reaction given by Li Mu last time, Zhao Wangqian knew, or in other words, no longer believed that Li Mu was willing to hand over military power.
In this case, we have no choice but to get rid of this rebellious minister first, and then regain military power.
Therefore, Zhao Cong and others first stayed outside Zhao Jun’s camp and waited for the opportunity.
The assassination team sent by Zhao Wangqian had to be the first to surround and kill Li Mu.
When Li Mu was executed, or was about to be executed, and the situation was chaotic, Zhao Cong and others entered the military camp with the king's tiger talisman and took over the army.
The overall plan is quite complete.
It's a pity that Zhao Wangqian can only have a little bright mind by doing such things that are useless to the country.
