In the early morning, before the sun has fully risen, the heat begins to gather.
It's another hot day.
There was a commotion in the camp. The generals were sitting on their seats, talking to each other, and looking up at Zhao Kuo from time to time, with disdain on their faces.
"What right does a child with no full hair have to sit on it?"
"Find an opportunity to show him some color."
"You think you can fight by reading a few military books, but when you actually go to the battlefield, don't be so scared that you wet your pants."
…
Zhao Kuo's face was gloomy, his fists were clenched and his joints were blue.
After coming to this world, he successively persuaded Le Yi, Tian Dan, and met Li Mu. He also persuaded King Zhao and noble ministers to donate food and grass for the front line, and was praised by many scholars.
After arriving in Changping, he persuaded Lian Po to stay and help him.
He couldn't help but feel a little proud and complacent in his heart, thinking that he had the capital to fight against Bai Qi.
It wasn't until just now that Zhao Kuo realized that he still lacked the most important thing-military spirit!
He is different from Lian Po!
Lian Po fought for Zhao for decades and became famous, and all the soldiers obeyed him.
Any order Lian Po issues, no matter whether it is reasonable or not, the soldiers will not have any objection.
But he, Zhao Kuo, couldn't do it.
He had never led troops in a battle, and he was less than ten years old. These soldiers would not listen to his orders at all.
In the hearts of these soldiers, he, Zhao Kuo, was just a young man who rose to power through connections.
As for reputation, don't say that Zhao Kuo's fame has not spread to the army. Even if it spread to the army, the soldiers will not accept your trick.
The soldiers will only look at your record and whether you can lead them to victory. As for your reputation, it is none of their business.
Although people during the Warring States Period valued honor and loyalty, they were even willing to die for fame and loyalty.
But it is impossible to just listen to Zhao Kuo and even die for him just because he is famous.
That's not called being loyal, that's called being a fool.
"There's some trouble."
Zhao Kuo finally understood why Zhao Kuo changed the law in history and turned from defense to offense.
I am afraid that in addition to the reasons for food and grass and the order of King Zhao, a large part of the reason is to win over the morale of the army and control the army.
There are many ways to win over the morale of the army, but there is only one fastest and most effective way, and that is victory.
As long as he continues to win, let alone Zhao Kuo, he is the royal family of the King of Zhao and the son of a famous general.
Even a ten-year-old child will be supported by the soldiers.
However, once attacked...
How could the fledgling Zhao Kuo be Bai Qi and Wang Lu's opponent?
As a result, Zhao was completely defeated in the end, and the entire army of more than 400,000 people was wiped out.
Zhao Kuo also suffered from eternal infamy.
Now, Zhao Kuo is facing the same situation as Zhao Kuo in history...
"In that case, let me rewrite history."
Chen hour had arrived. He looked around the tent and saw that a full third of the seats were still vacant.
Lian Po's face was dark, and his whole body was like a volcano about to erupt.
He had notified all the generals with a thousand men and above in the army, but these people still did not come, not only not giving Zhao Kuo face, but also not giving him face.
However, Lian Po did not choose to help Zhao Kuo, and Zhao Kuo had to handle this matter personally.
Only in this way can we truly control the army.
Le Yi and Tian Dan sat down below with their eyes closed, as if they hadn't seen anything.
Li Mu and Ben's eyes were full of anger, and they wished they could immediately ask for orders to catch all the people who hadn't arrived.
"General, my subordinates got up a little late for night patrol yesterday, so they came late. I hope you will forgive me, General."
At this time, a strong man with a strong back and a strong waist walked in.
This is Yan Xiong, the only two extraordinary warriors in the army.
He didn't know how to command and didn't know how to fight, but he relied on his military merits to rise to the position of a general of ten thousand people.
"Sit down and be careful next time." Zhao Kuo looked calm and pointed at the seat.
"promise."
Yan Xiong cupped his hands and found a seat to sit down.
Lian Po sighed in his heart, Zhao Kuo was still too young.
He knew very well that this group of subordinates would typically take the hard and not the soft.
Just now, Zhao Kuo should have used whatever method to give Yan Xiong a blow.
These people will be much more honest.
But Zhao Kuo just missed this opportunity.
The soldiers were talking louder and even started to point fingers at Zhao Kuo blatantly.
Zhao Kuo heard clearly that a thousand-man general on the left said: "If you are not the son of a famous general, you will definitely know how to fight. It is not uncommon to have a tiger father and a dog son."
After Yan Xiong, some more generals came in one after another.
No matter what excuse they gave, Zhao Kuo nodded in agreement and asked everyone to sit down.
A quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Seeing that Zhao Kuo did not dare to offend them, the officers and soldiers of the Zhao army ignored him at all. The sound in the military camp was no different from that in the vegetable market.
At this moment, Zhao Kuo stood up violently, stared ahead, and shouted loudly: "Is everyone here?"
"General, there is one general of ten thousand men, two generals of five thousand men, and five generals of one thousand men who have not arrived." Ben said loudly, and his majestic momentum suddenly burst out.
The soldiers stared at each other, this guard has some strength!
"Li Mu." Zhao Kuo said in a deep voice, his eyes like lightning piercing the sky.
"Here." Li Mu stood up and shouted loudly.
"Lead the guard camp and invite all those who have not yet arrived." Zhao Kuo said, emphasizing the word "invite".
The Guard Battalion is Zhao Kuo's support. Even if all Zhao Kuo's 400,000 troops betray him, the Guard Battalion will not betray him.
"promise."
Li Mu strode out of the military camp and led the guard camp towards the outside with a roar.
…
Zhao Jun's military camp somewhere.
"General, nothing will happen if we do this." A general with a thousand men said with some fear.
"Don't worry, a young boy who is still young will not dare to do anything to us even if he has ten thousand courages. Look, he might have to come to invite us in person later." Zhao Long, the general of ten thousand people, said nonchalantly.
He and Zhao Kuo are also from the same clan.
The difference is that Zhao Kuo is a collateral line.
He is a collateral line within a collateral line.
Several other 5,000-man generals and 1,000-man generals laughed at their companions for being timid, saying that Zhao Kuo had nothing to be afraid of.
"General, general, it's not good..." A soldier rushed in in a panic.
"Hahaha, did the young general named Zhao Kuo come to invite me in person?" Zhao Long laughed.
"No...no...it's the Guards Battalion who came to kill us."
"boom!"
At this time, the gate of the military camp was kicked open violently, sawdust fell into pieces, and a piece of wood flew quickly towards Zhao Long, and Li Mu led the guard battalion in.
"General, what do you mean?"
Zhao Long asked in a cold voice, and a cold and fierce aura rushed out of his body, shattering the wooden board.
As a ten thousand general in the Zhao Kingdom, he did not rise to power through connections like Zhao Kuo.
"Take them all away."
Li Mu waved his hand and said without even looking at Zhao Long.
"I wonder who dares? Come here." Zhao Long shouted loudly.
Densely packed soldiers emerged from the surrounding camps like a tide and quickly gathered here.
"Where are you from? You are not the little general named Zhao Kuo, are you?"
One of them looked at Li Mu and said jokingly.
Li Mu took a glance and secretly remembered this thousand-man general who slandered Zhao Kuo.
"Surround it up."
Following Li Mu's order, the Guards Battalion quickly surrounded the entire military camp.
