Thirteen Swords of Qin Shizhi's Desperate Beginning

Zhao Qian asked: "How does Guo Xiangguo plan to cut off Li Mu?"

Guo Kai stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, you and I only need to do this... this... and this..."

After hearing this, Zhao Qian smiled and praised, "Wonderful!"

"The widow gets Guo Qing, just like the late king Huiwen got Lin Xiangru!"

"Zhao Cong."

Zhao Cong responded, "My brother is here."

Zhao Qian ordered: "Li Mu resisted the decree and refused to obey the king's order. This is a crime of disrespect. In addition, there are rumors in the market that Wu'an Lord Li Mu is rebelling, and I have to guard against it."

"Zhao Cong, just to be on the safe side, you lead the troops to Li Mu's mansion, escort all his family and relatives out of the city, and then invite Li Mu to the appointment alone."

"The widow wants to meet him in person and listen to him explain himself to the widow."

Zhao Cong lifted his spirits, cupped his fists and said, "Yes."

As long as Li Mu is brought down, he, the Great Sikong, can go one step further and become a general of the Zhao State, with military power in his hands. In addition, as a clan minister, his power is already slightly higher than that of Prime Minister Guo Kai.

Zhao Cong took the order to retreat and act quickly.

An hour later, Li Mu's mansion and Wu'an Jun's mansion were in chaos. Li Mu's housekeepers, veteran guards, and followers of Jianghu were all beheaded.

Zhao Cong was not acting alone. He brought a thousand armored soldiers, hundreds of crossbow arrows, everyone with swords and armor, and massacred more than 300 people in Li Mu's mansion, leaving only Li Mu's relatives and heirs.

Li Mu had three wives and concubines, two sons, two daughters, and grandson Li Zuoche, only eight survived.

Zhao Cong's methods are not cruel or bloody.Facing the Qin army, Zhao Cong has always been submissive, a representative of the pro-Qin faction, and bowed his knees.

But... when facing his own people, even if the target is Zhao Guojun God Li Mu, the unparalleled national soldier who has worked hard, Zhao Cong still dares to strike hard to safeguard the royal power and personal interests.

time, early the next morning

Wu'an City, the main hall in the city
"Report, Patriarch, it's bad, it's bad!" A soldier ran over in a panic.

Li Mu's eyelids twitched, and he asked, "Li Si, what's wrong?"

Li Si, an old brother who was born in the same village as Li Mu, after Li Mu became famous all over the world, the whole village merged into Li Mu's family and called him Patriarch.

Li Si, a middle-aged man, burst into tears instantly, and said in a broken voice: "Patriarch, the Li family is gone, and the relatives are gone."

"what?"

Li Mu's face was shocked and pale. When he just stood up, his footsteps were flimsy, and his body receded backward, precariously on the verge of falling.

Li Mu supported the desk and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Li Si said: "Patriarch, let him speak."

At this time, a ranger from the Zhao Kingdom stepped into the hall, bowed his hands and said, "Zhao Gu, a ranger from the Mo family, has met Lord Wu An."

Li Mu nodded and asked, "Please let me know what happened to my Li residence."

Zhao Gu was filled with righteous indignation: "Yesterday at night, Da Sikong Zhao Cong led a thousand soldiers to besiege Wu'an Lord's mansion, massacring hundreds of people, saying that you resisted the order and did not follow the order, and you have the heart of treason, so you will be punished as treason."

"Ah!" Li Mu cried out in grief and indignation, venting his anger.

He is full of passion and patriotism. He has served Zhao Guo's army all his life, and has no regrets for his family and country. Zhao Qian treats him like this?Zhao Cong actually treated him like this?
Zhao Gu let out a long sigh and said, "Mr. Wu An, my condolences!"

"Report!"

At this time, Sima Shang stepped forward, hurried into the hall, and said, "General, the king's envoy is here again."

Sima Shang paused, and noticed that the atmosphere in the room was dignified. General Li Mu seemed to be more tired than before, showing signs of mental exhaustion.

"General, you..."

Li Mu said, "Let him in."

Sima Shang could only nod his head and said, "Yes."

Soon, the little eunuch who delivered the decree came again, holding the imperial edict, and declared the decree expressionlessly: "Mr. Wu'an Li Mu disobeyed the imperial edict, and all the officials were angry. Suppress the Li Mansion."

"However, I believe in Lord Wu'an's loyalty, and I feel grateful for the merits of Lord Wu'an, so I ask Zhao Cong not to touch Lord Wu'an's wives, concubines, and eight heirs."

"The widow hopes that Lord Wu An will return to the city and give the widow an explanation outside the city of Handan. As long as it proves that Lord Wu An has no intention of rebellion, the widow will immediately punish Zhao Cong heavily and continue to appoint Lord Wu An to resist the Qin army."

The little eunuch passing the decree resisted the fear in his heart, and said calmly: "Mr. Wu An, accept the decree."

Sima Shang shouted angrily: "Little Zhao Cong, how dare you do that!"

"He actually, he actually suppressed the Wu'an Lord's Mansion with troops, it is hateful and can be killed!"

Li Mu waved his hand, signaling Sima Shang to shut up, then he took two steps forward, took the Wang Zhao and said, "Tell the King, Li Mu will definitely go."

The little eunuch retreated quickly and said, "You must bring a message to the king, and leave."

"General, no!" Sima Shang, Zhao Gu and the others spoke one after another.

Li Mu said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind, there is no need to persuade me."

Two quarters of an hour later, Li Mu entrusted the military affairs to Sima Shang, saying: "It is very likely that I will never come back after this trip. Remember, there is no one in the world who is good at using troops, discussing power tactics, and discussing military formations." Li Changqing's opponent."

"You just need to hold on to Wu'an City, if you can't hold on..." Li Mu suddenly sighed and said, "As long as you can hold it, it counts as long."

Sima Shang nodded with tears in his eyes, "Please rest assured, General."

"You must come back!?"

Li Mu nodded, and walked away. He only brought dozens of soldiers with him. These soldiers were determined to go, and they were all from the same village of Li Mu.

evening
Thirty miles outside of Handan City, Li Mu came with dozens of soldiers on horseback, stopped at a distance of hundreds of feet, his eyes saw the jungle in all directions, as Zhao Guowu'an Jun, he had already noticed that soldiers were ambushing around.

However, he still came, and he still rode his horse forward slowly, stopping a hundred steps away.

A hundred paces away, right in front of him, in a temporary gazebo, King Zhao Zhaoqian was teasing a half-year-old child, fat and fat, with a tiger head and a tiger brain.

Li Mu's mind tightened, he got off his horse and said, "My lord!"

Zhao Qian hugged Li Zuoche who was several months old, got up slowly, smiled, and said slowly: "Kill!"

Li Mu was stunned, and said, "Your Majesty, Li Mu has absolutely no intention of plotting against you."

Zhao Cong jumped out, proudly and arrogantly said: "Li Mu, you disobeyed the king's order, disobeyed the edict, held a [-] army in your hand, supported your own self-respect, and said that you have no intention of rebelling, who will believe it?"

"Surround them!"

Zhao Cong gave an order, thousands of armored soldiers swarmed out, surrounded by heavy armored shield soldiers, iron shields formed a circular copper wall and iron wall, followed by crossbow arrows aimed at Li Mu, and spearmen pressed the formation.

Thousands of troops stepped forward, compressing the formation step by step.

Thousands of armored soldiers and armored imperial guards are all elites. Surrounded by such a lineup, it is difficult for top experts to escape.

Zhao Cong laughed out loud, his expression perfectly explaining what it means to be a villain. He laughed and said, "Haha, Li Mu, I'm telling you the truth. Your relatives and family members now have only their grandson Li Zuoche left."

"Don't worry, after you die, he will definitely go down to accompany you."

Li Mu looked at his grandson Li Zuoche, that was the son of his eldest son, that was his direct grandson, he had been a soldier all his life, neglected his family, he had no shame in his heart for the country, only his family.

"Since that's the case..."

Li Mu shouted: "Fish scale formation, break the formation!"

"Brothers, help me get out!"

If Li Mu wants to live, he will bring his grandson Li Zuoche to live. Whatever righteousness to the country, loyalty to the country, loyalty to the king, go to him!
Zhao Guo has a king like Zhao Qian, and there is nothing worthy of his nostalgia. It's a pity that those brothers who died in the battle, Pao Ze, are not worth their lives for a foolish king like Zhao Qian.

Zhao Guo is about to perish, but none of this has anything to do with him!

He Li Mu only wants to do one thing now, rush out, survive, keep his grandson Li Zuoche, and leave blood for the Li family.
