People drifted to lose contact in Qin Dynasty

After the two girls killed the green-faced ghost, they were about to go to the place agreed with the master, when they saw the master had already appeared, beside the master, there was also an old man with a sense of immortality and a young man.

Girls Hei and Bai walked over with swords in hand, looked at Bei Mingzi and the young man beside him warily, and finally, they came to their master Jingxi.

Bei Mingzi glanced at them, interested, and finally landed on Jing Xi, "I don't know if this sword technique has a name?"

"It's called Taiyi Split Lightsaber!"

For some reason, when facing Bei Mingzi, it was difficult for the startled salamander to be hostile to him. Perhaps it was because the old Taoist exuded a gentle aura all the time, and when he was with him, his mood would be different. Inexplicably became peaceful.

It was also for this reason that the startled salamander didn't mind answering Bei Mingzi's questions and told him the name of the sword technique.

"Taiyi divides light?" Bei Mingzi was slightly taken aback, because the place where Taoism is located is also called "Taiyi", and then he stroked his hand and sighed, "Good name!"

Looking at the swordsmanship performed by the two girls earlier, the combination of yin and yang, isn't it the embodiment of Tao?

The name of Taiyi splitting light is well-deserved!

Chapter 291 Li Mu Zhizhi

Sima Shang is not Li Mu after all. Although he has the reputation of being a general, he is still difficult to fight against the general trend brought by Wang Jian.

After several months of confrontation between the Qin and Zhao armies near the Taihang Mountains, with Wang Jian's army attacking with all their strength, they finally broke Sima Shang's defense that he thought he had the best land and was impregnable. , captured tens of thousands of prisoners, and the main force of the Zhao army led by Sima Shang suddenly scattered like birds and beasts, fled in all directions, and withdrew towards the hinterland of Zhao State in a panic.

And after crossing Jingxing Mountain in the eight Xings of the Taihang, the Qin army was like a beast that had been unshackled, and it was like a broken bamboo. In ten days, it went down several cities and approached the direction of Handan, the capital of Zhao State.

In addition to Wang Jian's army gaining an advantage, Wang Ben also marched towards Zhao from South Korea, and attacked Handan, the capital of Zhao from the other side.

In addition, Qin general Yang Ruihe led the Lantian army, a total of three armies, and jointly attacked the entire Zhao country.

For a time, Zhao Guo was like duckweed in the wind, and the country was in jeopardy.

At this time, Zhao Wangqian, who has always been greedy for pleasure, panicked for the first time. It was also at this time that he remembered Li Mu who was sent to guard the border. In order to be a general, he handed over the last large army of Zhao State stationed in Handan to him, and let him dispatch. He wanted to stop the offensive of the Qin army and buy time for Li Mu to return to aid.

It has to be said that Guo Kaishou did not directly kill Li Mu earlier, but only let him be sent to the border, which indeed left a glimmer of life for Zhao Guo.

If Li Mu led [-] frontier soldiers back to defend, even under the general situation, Zhao State would still be unable to escape the fate of being destroyed, at least the Qin army would encounter some obstacles.

But since Ying Zheng had expected that Li Mu was still alive, there might be hidden dangers, so how could he not be prepared.

……

Jicheng at night is not as quiet as usual, but unusually noisy.

Regarding the fact that Qin State sent troops to attack Zhao, the thoughts of Yan State's court are actually very complicated. In all fairness, if Zhao State, as Yan State's old opponent, falls, the subjects of Yan State will inevitably feel a little bit happy, but they can't help but feel happy. In addition, he couldn't help but feel hesitant. After all, Zhao State is only one stretch of Yishui away from Yan State.

Not everyone doesn't understand the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.

However, even if the State of Yan wanted to rush to the aid of the State of Zhao, it is now powerless. Lord Yanchun and General Yan Yi committed a rebellion before. Although the rebellion was suppressed in the end, it also weakened the weak national strength of the State of Yan. Cut a few points.

In the spacious palace, Yan Wang Yandan wears a crown and a royal robe. In front of him is his teacher, the former Yan State Tutor, and now the Yan State Xiangguo Ju Wu.

He is also Yandan's most loyal supporter. During Yandan's entry into Qin as a hostage for more than a year, nearly two years, it was he who helped Yandan stabilize its foundation in Yanguo, so that Yandan did not leave the foundation and be killed. Lord Yanchun was eradicated. Before Lord Yanchun rebelled, Ju Wu secretly persuaded many people from Lord Yanchun to surrender. Otherwise, the military power would be in the hands of Lord Yanchun and Yan Yi. Everyone expects it, but it is not so easy to suppress the rebellion easily.

"Is Li Mu still unwilling to submit to our country of Yan?"

Listening to Ju Wu's report in front of him, Yan Dan couldn't help sighing.

Zhao Wangqian sent Li Mu to lead [-] Zhao troops to guard the border. At that time, Yan's domestic turmoil had just subsided. Yan Dan naturally thought that Zhao State intended to attack Yan State and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, so he was very vigilant and vigilant towards Li Mu.

However, as Qin State sent troops to attack Zhao, Sima Shang and other generals of Zhao State lost to the army led by King Jian of Qin. The situation suddenly reversed, and Zhao State fell into a crisis of life and death.

Yan Dan couldn't help but came up with some new ideas.

Zhao Guo is about to perish, and there is no way to save it. If Li Mu and his [-] Zhao troops can be persuaded to join the Yan State, it will be a big deal for the Yan State, which has lost a lot of national power due to civil strife. Small additions.

Of course, King Yan's purpose was not only for the fifty thousand Zhao troops, but also for Li Mu.

Li Mu, as the general of Zhao State and Lord Wu'an, his military ability can be said to be the best in the world. Even Wang Jian of Qin State is only on the same level as him.

Thousands of gold are easy to get, but hard to find.

The Yan Kingdom didn't have any famous generals. Back then, the Le clan was full of generals, but because of some faults of their father, they were forced to leave. Even Yan Yi and other people could become the great generals of the Yan Kingdom. General, it can be seen that Yan's generals are withering.

The state of Zhao is about to perish. If Li Mu wants to avenge the state of Qin, it would be a great thing to lead [-] Zhao troops to join the state of Yan. Yan Dan thinks that he can still afford the position of a general of the state of Yan. of.

However, Li Mu refused.

Even though the hinterland of Zhao State had already been ravaged by the Qin army, and Handan was about to be in a hurry, he didn't seem to see the general trend of Zhao State's imminent destruction, so he resolutely led [-] Zhao troops on the border and headed towards King Qin of Handan.

Li Mu's behavior, in Yan Dan's view, is naturally stupid, and it can even be said to be extremely pedantic, but he has no right to criticize others.

Even if Li Mu's going here is a moth to the flame and is unable to turn the tide, that is Li Mu's own choice.

One thing he needs to think about now is how Yan will deal with himself after Zhao's demise.

As a proton, he fled from Qin State before, and he deeply hated King Yingzheng of Qin. This means that it is very difficult for Yan State to seek peace from Qin State, and Yan Dan does not want to seek peace from Qin State. The country is called a minister and pays tribute.

With the fall of South Korea, the door of Qin Guodong was wide open, and he could drive straight in and attack Zhao Guo, Wei Guo, and Chu Guo.If Zhao State is destroyed, it means that the gap between Qin State and Yan State no longer exists. It is impossible for Yan State to take advantage of its location to avoid the war. If Qin State wanted to attack Yan, it only needed to cross Yishui to reach the hinterland of Yan State.

Yan Dan knew about Qin's ambition to rule the world from the very beginning.

However, the Kingdom of Yan has been passed down from the beginning of the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty to the present. As the current King of Yan, Yan Dan does not want his ancestors to perish in his own hands. He does not want to become a subjugated king.

It is basically impossible to defeat Qin on the frontal battlefield.

Therefore, only the sword is slanted, and the soldiers are in danger.

"Dragon Slaying Plan..."

In the quiet palace, Yan Dan recalled the plan from that year.

Even if this plan had already been rejected by the Mohist giant six-fingered black man before he returned to the country, if Zhao Guo was destroyed, Yan Guo's lips would die and his teeth would be cold, and there would be nothing to gain. Fan.

If he still refuses.

A trace of coldness flashed in Yan Dan's eyes.

When he was the crown prince, although he was worried about the country and the country, he still felt more deeply than the feeling of not being able to become the Queen of Yan and sitting on that position in person.

……

When the state of Qin broke through the Jingxing pass, and Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Yang Rui and the three armies were attacking Handan of the state of Zhao at the same time, in the north of the state of Zhao, there was also a soldier of the king of Qin rushing towards Handan, the capital of the state of Zhao. go.

There are not many soldiers and horses, and there are only more than [-] people in total. Compared with the Qin army with hundreds of thousands at every turn, it is simply small.

However, in the face of national crisis, even if there is a sea of ​​swords and blood ahead, they will go forward bravely and gallop at a high speed.

This is Li Mu's army.

On the endless plain, the torrent of steel continued to spread towards the front, the sound of horseshoes was urgent, the wind was majestic, and the spears shone coldly in the sun.

All of this showed the elite of Li Mu's army.

As a brave veteran who has followed Li Mu in battle for many years, this army has followed Li Mu to resist the invasion of northern nomadic aliens, and has also resisted the attack of Qin State. Following Li Mu to fight north and south, it can be said that it has traveled three thousand miles alone.

If Li Mu was really allowed to lead the 5 people back to Handan, even if the Qin State had a three-way army, it would probably take some time to completely defeat Li Mu's 5 people and cost the lives of many soldiers.

Just when Li Mu led the army and galloped towards Handan, he didn't know that someone had been waiting for him for a long time.

In a mountain forest, Bai Chuan stood with his hands behind his back. Behind him, in the shade of the trees where the sunlight could not penetrate, stood many figures. They were tall or short, male or female, all of whom were carrying famous swords. The meaning is awe-inspiring.

Chapter 292 Hunting and Killing Li Mu

In Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng also received the battle report from the front line. He was not surprised that Wang Jian was able to break through Sima Shang's defense. In his opinion, although Sima Shang was also a general, he was the only one in Zhao who could be called a strong man. The only enemy is Li Mu.

Sima Shang and his like are still far behind.

Even now that Li Mu has been sent by King Zhao to guard the Yanzhao border because of Guo Kai, Ying Zheng still has not let go of his guard against Li Mu, because no one knows for sure, when the time comes to destroy the country, King Zhao will If they don't understand, they will send Li Mu back again.

After all, Guo Kai is a member of Zhao Guo, even if he bribes him with a lot of money, he will not be ruthless, and he always has some expectations for Zhao Guo in his heart.

Since he couldn't do this ruthless hand, it could only be done by Qin Guo.

Regarding how to deal with Li Mu, Ying Zheng thought of the old story of Bai Qi.

As we all know, Bai Qi's death was due to his great achievements, which aroused the suspicion of King Zhao, so he was given to death. There is another way of saying it.

Bai Qi died in the siege of the six elders of the farm family.

However, no matter which one it is, Bai Qi did arouse King Zhao's suspicion back then, and King Zhao did have the intention to kill him. Ying Zheng is sure of this.

Since the farmers can hunt and kill Lord Wu An of our Qin State, our Qin State can also use similar methods to hunt and kill Lord Wu An of Zhao State.

The Qin State's destruction of Zhao was a battle for the destruction of the country. In addition to the attack on the battlefield, the secret conspiracy, as long as it was useful, Ying Zheng never minded to use it.

If Qin can save some soldiers from dying because of this, he can do everything he can.

……

As night fell, after a day of traveling, although Li Mu and the [-] Zhao troops were eager to rush back to Handan, people are not made of iron after all, and they still had to rest after traveling for a long time.

The army camped on the spot, and bonfires were dotted around the tents to disperse the night.

No one noticed that in the dark night mist that was not illuminated by the fire, figures appeared or disappeared.

The night is lonely, only the cold wind blows.

After a long journey during the day, even though it was already late at night, as the general of the Zhao army, Li Mu did not fall asleep.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there is a map of Zhao State. For this matter, most of the places on this map have been marked. This is the place that has been captured by Qin State. And somewhere in the belly of the map, there is A specially enclosed place is... Handan.

The Qin army invaded like a fire, and Li Mu knew that even if he went back to Handan now, it would actually be useless.

If it was at the beginning of the war, he was sure to hold the pass of Taihang Baxing and strangle the throat of Qin State's attack on Zhao State. Even if Qin State could still break through Zhao State, it would not be so easy.

But he was sent to the border of Yanzhao by Zhao Wangqian.

Although Li Mu was worried that Sima Shang might not be able to stop Wang Jian's attack without his own garrison in Taihang Baxing and other places when he received the king's order.

As for disobeying the king's order, Li Mu never had such thoughts.

He was loyal to Zhao Guo, from the beginning to the end, and never had any second thoughts.

Perhaps many people, like Yan Wang Yandan, think that Li Mu is pedantic and stupid, but this is exactly his original intention and never changes.

Long night.

Li Mu looked at the map in front of him and couldn't help sighing. This map was marked according to the military newspaper he received not long ago. Now that some time has passed, even he doesn't know the latest situation of the Qin army's attack on Zhao. , it must be even worse.

As Lord Wu'an of Zhao State, Li Mu is known among the people as the God of War. He has fought for decades in his life and has never lost a battle. , Facing the overwhelming situation of the Qin State, this military god became sad for the first time in his life, and he felt powerless.

How difficult it is to hold the sky with one hand.

Can Zhao Guo do it?He, Li Mu, with these [-] soldiers and horses, can face the hundreds of thousands of troops led by Qin King Jian, Wang Ben and his son, can he do it?

After questioning himself, Li Mu didn't have the slightest confidence.

A gust of evening wind blows, bringing a little bit of coolness.

Looking at the map, Li Mu frowned and thought, suddenly raised his head and looked aside, "Who is it?"

The Zhenyue sword hanging on his waist suddenly swung out, bringing out a sharp cold light, and swept away towards the side.

Zhenyue Sword, the sword is as its name suggests, Li Mu held this sword, like a big mountain, suppressed on the border of Qin and Zhao, suppressed on the border of Zhao and the alien races in the north.

No matter if it is the people of Qin, the wolves of the north, or the barbarians, facing Li Mu who is holding this sword, they are still unable to take half a step into the country of Zhao.

But unfortunately, before the mountain collapsed, all the sheltered places behind the mountain had already fallen.

There are isolated places in all directions, even though this mountain is unattainable, it is only a lonely peak, facing the wind, frost, rain and snow from all directions, it is difficult to parry with swords, spears, swords and halberds.

After Li Mu's words came out, shadows of holding swords were reflected on the tent. I don't know when, in Li Mu's camp, there were several more figures. There were indifferent young people holding swords and chaotic gods, and blind old men holding swords to cut off water. , there is a burly young man who is really strong with a sword, besides that, there are several figures, all holding famous swords.

No one knew how they sneaked into Li Mu's camp, and more importantly, after they shot at Li Mu, the soldiers guarding outside didn't realize it.

……

No one noticed that the tent that Li Mu was in was shrouded by an invisible force at this moment. They were like a layer of sound insulation covering the tent, making it impossible for any movement inside to come out.

A man in a black robe stood outside the tent with his hands behind his back, looking at the tent quietly. The night watchmen passed by him, but they didn't notice his existence, as if they didn't notice him at all. people.

The man was Bai Chuan.

And the person who attacked Li Mu inside was the Shadow Secret Guard!

In the past, after Bai Chuan helped Yingzheng regain the Luowang organization, he wiped out all the famous swords in Luowang's collection. Later, when the Shadow Secret Guard was established, he recruited experts everywhere, imitating the Luowang organization, and bestowed many famous swords on them.

This time Qin State attacked Zhao, Ying Zheng realized Li Mu's threat early in the morning.

Since they have already used countermeasures to make Li Mu leave the front line, he doesn't mind carrying out the conspiracy to the end, for example, assassinating Li Mu.

However, within Qin State, there are two organizations that are good at assassination, namely Luo Wang and Shadow Secret Guard. The Shadow Secret Guard is newly established. Logically speaking, in order to be safe, the matter should be handed over to Luo Wang, an established organization. .

However, if Luo Wang were to be assassinated, Ying Zheng would inevitably think of what happened to him when he was assassinated by Luo Wang.

Moreover, because Bai Chuan destroyed too many times of Luo Wang's assassination, Ying Zheng's inherent impression of Luo Wang's organization was not very good. He was worried that he would fail if he asked Luo Wang to assassinate, so after weighing it, he finally decided to use this The task was handed over to the shadow guard.
