Chapter 1098 Ask Wu Anjun to plan for Zhao State and send troops to the king.
Win over Li Mu, or kill Li Mu.
This is not a difficult choice for Guo Kai. Guo Kai once chose to win over Li Mu and acted for this purpose.
But, in the end Guo Kai failed.
Guo Kai held the title of King of Zhao and had been in power for many years. Naturally, he had many eyes and ears, and he had a good understanding of Handan and even some internal affairs of Zhao State.
He knew in his heart that the people of Zhao, as well as the Zhao State's meritorious deeds, and the Zhao State's clan were extremely dissatisfied with his control of King Zhao.
Moreover, some senior figures in the court have been seeking to take over the throne from King Zhao.
The situation was grim, which inevitably made Guo Kaixin feel a lot heavier. Especially when the Qin army pressed in in three groups, it once again cast a shadow over Guo Kaixin.
"Father, Lian Po, Pang Yuan and others have been in frequent contact these days, and the same goes for the Zhao clan..." Although Han Cang did not have much talent, he knew that his prosperity and wealth were closely related to the old man in front of him.
"These people are still determined not to give up. Over the years, they have been allowed to exist just to better consolidate their position."
After taking a sip of tea, Guo Kai had a murderous intent in his eyes: "Continue to stare at King Zhao and the Queen Mother. This Zhao country, I have the final say."
"promise."
At this moment, the murderous intent in Guo Kai's eyes became even more intense. He knew in his heart that he was hostile to the Zhao family and the meritorious elders, and the border army and Li Mu were the only straw that could overwhelm everything.
Once Li Mu fell to the frontier army, Guo Kai knew that his good days were over.
"Liu Da, immediately go to Daijun in my name, and in the name of the king, grant Lord Wu'an an additional hundred miles of fiefdom."
After thinking for a long time, Guo Kai gave the order decisively, saying.
At this time, Guo Kaixin only had one thought, and that was to create a estrangement. He wanted to promote the established fact and separate the distinguished veteran of Zhao State from Li Mu.
Only in this way can the current balance be maintained, and he will have time and energy to complete the suppression of Li Mu and his political opponents.
"promise."
…
Chunping Junfu.
"Jun Chunping, has the message been sent out?" Lian Po's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and he said to Jun Chunping: "Now the Qin army is marching eastward and approaching our country, Zhao, in three groups."
"This situation means that we only have the last chance. Once we miss this opportunity, we will never find it again in the future."
"Don't worry, Prime Minister. I have already sent an envoy to Dai County. I think Lord Wu An has received the news." Chun Ping Lord, who was sitting upright beside him, chuckled and said.
…
Daijun.
Border Army Shogunate.
"Mr. Wu'an, don't worry too much. The special envoy has already gone south to Handan to report to the king the news of the Qin army's eastward march. I don't think there will be any surprises."
Sima Shang looked calm. He was no stranger to the Qin army. He was well aware of Zhao Bianqi's combat prowess, and he was even more convinced of Li Mu's ability.
"Your Majesty, Guo Kai..."
After murmuring, Li Mu didn't say much, but he was quite worried at this time, and he was definitely not as calm as he appeared on the surface now.
He knew in his heart that in Handan today, King Zhao has not yet taken charge of the government, Guo Kai is in control of the government, and the competition between various forces has intensified.
He was very worried about Handan.
"Wu An Jun, Chun Ping Jun's envoy has arrived. He is outside the camp at the moment and wants to see Wu An Jun." At this moment, Sima of the Chinese Army hurriedly walked in and said to Li Mu, Gu Zhuo
"Shunpei-kun?"
Li Mu knew that trouble was coming, and Chunpingjun's envoy arrived, which meant that the struggle in Handan had reached an irreconcilable point.
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Li Mu waved his hand and said: "Bring the envoy in, and then you personally lead people to seal the shogunate and prohibit anyone from approaching."
"promise."
Li Mu sat in charge of the border army, faced off against the Huns, and was invincible in battles. He had already become the God of War in the eyes of the Zhao Kingdom's border troops.
No one will disobey Li Mu's orders.
After a while, a civil servant walked into the shogunate, saluted Li Mu and Sima Shang, and said: "Zhao Song, the special envoy of Lord Chunping, has met Lord Wu An and General Sima."
“Messengers don’t need to be polite!”
Li Mu signaled Zhao Song to stand up, and then said in a deep voice: "At this time, when the Qin army is marching eastward, Lord Chunping sent you, what is your intention?"
Li Mu was sitting with scouts, and he was very clear about the political struggle in Handan City, as well as Zhao Song's purpose, but he was still unwilling to easily participate in it.
As a minister, he participated in the dethronement of the king. How will Li Mu stand up in the Zhao Kingdom in the future?
Who in the world dares to trust me?
Hearing this, Zhao Song glanced at Sima Shang, then bowed to Li Mu, and said in a solemn tone: "Jun Wu An, Lord Chunping sent me north to ask for help from Lord Wu An."
"Chunping Jun asked Wu An Jun to quickly return to Handan, use the elite of the border army to depose King Zhao, kill Guo Kai, and then support a new king."
"Please Mr. Wu An, please do your best for the country of Zhao and the people of Zhao in the world. Don't hesitate any longer."
After hearing Zhao Song's words, the smile on Li Mu's face disappeared completely. He did not immediately agree to Zhao Song, but said to Zhao Song.
"The envoy went all the way north, and after traveling thousands of miles, he was tired of thinking about it. The envoy went to rest first so that he could think about it."
"promise."
Zhao Song also knew that Li Mu could not agree to such a big event immediately, not to mention that he was just a messenger and could only act according to orders.
Sima of the Chinese army took Zhao Song down. Sima Shang turned to Li Mu and said, "Jun Wu'an, what should we do about this?"
"Sima, send someone to Wu'an immediately and ask General Pang Yuan to come to the shogunate. I have important matters to discuss with you." Li Mu took a deep look at Sima Shang and then spoke.
"promise."
Watching Sima Shang leave, Li Mu looked solemn. He knew in his heart that if he raised his troops and went south, he would not gain the trust of any king again.
This is not the point.
He had devoted his life to the State of Zhao. If he alone could change the situation and make the State of Zhao stronger, Li Mu would die without any regrets.
However, he didn't believe Chunping-kun and others. These people wanted power, but no one stood up to take the lead.
Li Mu understood deeply that such an important matter as deposing King Zhao, killing Guo Kai, and establishing a new king must be carefully planned.
A leader is also needed to make plans in the middle, but no one from the Zhao family or the meritorious elders of Zhao dares to stand up.
It's not that he doesn't know that King Zhao and Guo Kai are not good friends, but if he doesn't have the ability to depose King Zhao and quickly stabilize the government after killing Guo Kai, he won't send troops easily.
Because the foreign general will lead the army south to kill the traitors and depose the king. This is too difficult to do. If you are not careful, you will lose everything.
He may even lead to chaos in the entire Zhao Kingdom. Now that Qin has divided its forces and is approaching, it is clear that it wants to destroy Zhao.
Once Zhao is in chaos due to his own situation, it will only be in vain to benefit Qin and the Qin king's government.
