In order to ensure this goal, Li Mu's idea is also very simple. Of course, he will not engage in any intrigue and political struggle. He just uses his credit to kill other people who may compete with Li Mu in the future.
As long as Li Mu's contribution is No.1 among all people in the future, who can pose any threat to Li Mu's No.1 status in the military?
Thinking of this, the corners of Li Mu's mouth became more and more intense.
Li Mu had already seen the world map that Zhao Kuo gave Wang Jian not long ago.
From Li Mu's point of view, if Zhao Kuo wants to organize a Western Expedition one day, then Li Mu is undoubtedly the most suitable commander for this Western Expedition!To ensure this, start working now!Beside Li Mu, Han Fei also let out a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "Thinking, I never imagined that these Mo, Mo people can create such a miracle!"
Han Fei was really surprised. To him, the "Mo workers" of the Mo family, especially the Fuzhen school, were nothing more than a group of guys who could only manufacture equipment, after all, they were just minor players in history.
But the fact is before our eyes, the explosives produced by Fuzhen directly destroyed the heavily guarded city of Qi people, doomed the demise of Qi, and changed history!This made Han Fei doubt life.
Han Fei was actually writing a book before. According to the usual practice, the name of this book will be called Han Fei. If Han Fei becomes famous in the future and becomes a master of learning, then this book will be honored as Han Feizi.
Originally, Han Fei felt that he had enough insight into all the chains of the society of this era, and knew how the society of this era developed and evolved.
But now, the explosives in Changguo City directly shattered Han Fei's entire ideological system.
The very perceptive Han Fei suddenly felt that a new era had slowly unfolded in front of him.
I am afraid that those old theories and understandings before will no longer be able to adapt to this new era!Han Fei took a deep breath. Although he was far away from the battlefield, he seemed to have already inhaled the gunpowder smoke from the city wall of Changguo.
"Perhaps, this is why the Lord specially asked me to come here."
Han Fei thought silently, and in his heart, he once again respected Zhao Kuo who was far away.
As the saying goes, seeing is better than hearing a hundred times, perhaps Zhao Kuo wanted to use this method to let Han Fei know that times have changed!Li Mu patted Han Fei on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Why are you in a daze?
Let's go, I'll take you into the city to have a look. "
Han Fei couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words: "Entering the city, now?"
From Han Fei's perception, it was less than half an hour after breaking through the city, and it would be too risky to enter the city at this time.
Li Mu laughed loudly, and said, "You, you overestimate these Qi people.
Let me tell you, the people of Qi are different from people in other countries. They all fight for money, so when the overall situation is favorable, they are definitely fighting for the first place. They all want to get more military achievements for money, but the situation is not good. They run faster than anyone else and surrender louder than anyone else, understand? "
Han Fei couldn't help being dazed when he heard the words. He really hadn't heard of such a situation.
Li Mu said with a smile: "This is the people of Qi. If you do a lot of business, you have to worry about everything, but you don't know what it means to live to death!"
As a very famous general in the current world, Li Mu also gave the people of Qi a direct conclusion.
That is to say, but it will be half an hour before Li Mu and Han Fei enter the city, because Li Mu needs to arrange more troops to enter the city first to ensure control of the entire city.
After all, Li Mu is someone who will go to the west in the future, so he can't be plotted against in this kind of place.
When entering the city, since Li Mu and Han Fei were riding in chariots, they couldn't pass through the city wall that had been blown into ruins, but walked through the city gate about [-] steps away from the ruins.
Due to the involvement of explosives, the city gate also looks a little damaged, but it can still be used.
Han Fei stared at the ruins of the city wall that had been blown away by explosives, and the closer he got, the stronger the shock in Han Fei's heart.
What kind of power is needed to completely destroy this seemingly indestructible city wall?
Fortunately, this power is in our hands.
No, it should be said that if there is no lord, this world probably would not have such a power!At this moment, Han Fei suddenly felt proud and fortunate.
I, Han Fei, have found the right master!Li Mu was also looking at the ruins, expressing amazement.
Suddenly, Li Mu smiled at Han Fei: "From now on, things like city walls will be completely abolished!"
Han Fei was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he felt sorry.
Indeed, with the presence of explosives, what is the point of city walls?
No matter how tall or big the city wall is, it's just a "bang", and then everything is over.
Moreover, when the city wall was opened by the enemy, because the walls in other places were still intact, everyone in the city became a bird in a cage, and they could only be captured or slaughtered. Exhausted!This is definitely a very cruel thing.
After much deliberation, Han Fei did not get a solution, so he turned to Li Mu, hoping to get an answer from Li Mu.
Li Mu shrugged his shoulders and said, "How would I know?
Perhaps, only the person who invented dynamite can give us the real answer. "
While speaking, the two entered Changguo City.
At this moment, more than an hour has passed since the explosives were released and Zhao Jun entered the city. Although sporadic battle sounds can still be heard, judging from the densely packed Zhao army soldiers in front of them, there is no need to think about it. I also know that this city has really fallen into the hands of Zhao Jun.
A general greeted him and said to Li Mu, "General, we have found Kuang Liang."
Li Mu lifted his spirits and said with a smile, "Dead or alive?
Better still, if you can. "
For Kuang Liang, Li Mu can't say that he has any bad feelings. After all, everyone has their own masters, and it's normal for whoever wins and who loses.
It can only be said that Kuang Liang did not follow Li Mu's advice to persuade him to surrender, which was a big failure!The general said: "He is still alive, but he refused to surrender, but indicated that he wanted to see the general."
Li Mu sighed, and said: "It seems that this is about to commit suicide, these guys are dead, do you want to leave some last words?"
Han Fei coughed and said, "Your noble demeanor!"
"Aristocratic demeanor?"
Li Mu curled his lips. As an ordinary scholar from the bottom, Li Mu was quite disdainful of this so-called aristocratic demeanor.
But no matter what, Li Mu finally came to the place where Kuang Liang was, which was the largest mansion in Changguo City.
"The Mansion of the Monarch of Chang Kingdom."
When Li Mu read the name on the plaque, he couldn't help being a little puzzled: "Isn't Lord Chang the Yuejian of the Yan Kingdom?"
A calm voice came out: "It's not just Yan that has Lord Chang, we also have Lord Chang in Qi.
It's like Qin State has Wu'an Lord Bai Qi, but Zhao State also has its own Wu'an Lord. "
Then Li Mu came to a sudden, and said with a smile: "It seems that these great kings really don't have much creativity when they take titles, Grand Sima Kuangliang, are you right?"
The person who spoke to Li Mu just now was the Chief General of Qi State, Grand Sima Kuangliang.
Li Mu stared at Kuang Liang, and found that although the chief general of the Qi army had reached the end of his life, he was still standing there in high spirits, and there were still hundreds of loyal Qi guards protecting him. He even had a well-dressed counselor, Meng Bin, the envoy of the Qi army that Li Mu had met before.
Li Mu nodded, and said: "It seems that Da Sima is still very popular with his courtiers. I am really surprised that there are still people who are willing to follow you after you have reached this point."
What Li Mu said was really not ridicule or sarcasm. You must know that Li Mu followed Zhao Kuo to break through three countries. He has seen the scene of "trees falling and monkeys scattered" when those countries perished.
Judging from what Li Mu has seen and heard, it can be said that when the country falls, the courtiers who are willing to follow the monarch are basically two or three kittens. Compared with the total number of courtiers in each country, which is hundreds or thousands, it is really very small. And less.
It is precisely because loyal courtiers are so scarce that history books have always written about these loyal courtiers in order to commend and promote such a spirit!After Li Mu's words fell, Kuang Liang's expression moved slightly, and then he let out a helpless wry smile.
"The general praised me absurdly. I Kuang is just a defeated general."
Li Mu nodded, he himself is not a person who is good at saying such polite words, so he immediately got to the point: "So, why did Da Sima want to see me?
If you want to surrender, I can guarantee in the name of our Zhao country that you will get a very decent position. "
For a heavyweight minister of Qi like Kuang Liang, Zhao's attitude has always been to recruit and surrender.
Because with Kuang Liang's energy, once he really surrendered, he could quickly drive a large number of Qi generals and ministers to surrender, which is definitely more effective for Zhao Guo.
Kuang Liang shook his head and said: "The general misunderstood. If the old man really wanted to surrender, he would have already surrendered when the city was broken. Why resist until now?"
Li Mu snorted, but he wasn't surprised by this: "So, what do you think?"
Kuang Liang looked at Li Mu, and said slowly: "The old man actually wants to ask the general, what did the general use to break through the city of Changguo?"
Only then did Li Mu understand. After talking about his feelings for a long time, this old boy is actually keeping this life just because of curiosity!However, Li Mu can actually understand Kuang Liang. After all, if the two sides change places, Li Mu must also hope to know exactly what was defeated by him before he dies.
Li Mu thought for a while, and decided to say it out: "The weapon that can destroy the city wall is a weapon newly developed by our country Zhao. I can't tell you the specific content, but I can tell you its name Zhentianlei."
The name Dynamite is of course more realistic, but Li Mu felt that it would be more foolish to choose another name.
The name "Zhentianlei" sounds very imposing, and it is also very vivid.
Sure enough, after hearing Li Mu's words, Kuang Liang was at a loss for a while, and then nodded with relief: "Shocking Thunder, what a Shocking Thunder! To be defeated by such a peerless weapon that has never been seen before, the old man is also It’s an unjust death.”
After a pause, Kuang Liang bowed his hands to Li Mu and saluted: "Thank you, General."
Li Mu had a serious expression on his face, and he saluted, "Is there anything Elder Sima can do for me?"
Kuang Liang looked around at the people present, and sighed: "I, Kuang Liang, spent my whole life in the army, and I originally thought that I would be able to end my career as brilliantly as my father did, but I didn't expect it.
Time also, fate also!The general, the warriors around me, and this counselor Meng Bin are all available.
I have given them orders that after my death they will surrender to you.
I hope you can appoint them regardless of past suspicions, and they will definitely add luster to your future career. "
When Kuang Liang spoke, his tone was very earnest.
Li Mu was silent for a while, then nodded slowly: "I will give them a chance, but as for whether they can take it or not, that's up to them."
Kuang Liang laughed and said, "Then thank you, General!"
After saying this, Kuang Liang raised the long sword in his hand high without any hesitation.
"Lord!"
"Big Sima!"
Amidst the mournful and heartbroken shouts of countless Qi people, Kuang Liang's body slowly fell to the ground, blood trickling, and finally sank into the ground.
Kuang Liang committed suicide!
Chapter 1019 Li Mu defeated King Zhao and was about to kill Zhao Kuo
Li Mu sighed again after watching Kuang Liang's body fall to the ground.
As an opponent, Li Mu's heart is of course not much touched by Kuang Liang's death, but as the commander-in-chief who is also a mighty army, Li Mu can actually understand Kuang Liang's mood at this time.
This is a war that Zhao State can lose, but Qi State absolutely cannot lose.
Zhao Guo lost, nothing more than temporarily ending the war, going back to rest for a year or two, and then doing it again.
If the Qi State loses, it will destroy the country!This is the difference between a big country and a small country. A big country can lose many times, but a small country only needs to lose once, and it will be completely over.
A country must be big, and the bigger the better!Li Mu glanced at the soldiers of Qi State who were lying on their knees beside Kuang Liang, and slowly said to General Zhao Guo beside him, "Give them a chance to restrain their remains for burial, and then imprison them all."
As for who can use it and who can't use it, this is a matter for the nightingale spies who have already been in place in General Li Mu's mansion, so there is no need to solve it on this occasion.
Kuang Liang was already dead, and the battle in Changguo City naturally came to an end.
Zhao Guo's military judges also worked overnight, and in the morning of the second day, they initially produced a battle report and sent it to Li Mu.
"Thirty-five thousand, eight hundred and ninety-two, and the number of captives exceeded 890!"
Li Mu read this number, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
The number of beheads is normal, but the number of captives is really a surprise.
Since Zhao Jun had surrounded the entire city of Changguo, basically no one could escape.
This is a real annihilation of the entire army, a complete annihilation!Li Mu is happy, 15 people, basically all of them were killed by Li Mu in this battle.
These 15 people were originally the last force that Qi could cobble together. Without this force, what else would King Qi use to resist Li Mu's attack?
The current state of Qi is like a mansion with the door completely open. Li Mu can go wherever he wants, and the people of Qi state have no strength to fight back at all.
With such a happy mood, Li Mu almost immediately summoned all the generals and arranged the next plan.
"Next, we will divide our forces to fight, and strive to occupy all the cities in Qi State in the fastest time!"
Li Mu also directly divided the 20 soldiers and horses in his hands into four groups, and the other three groups were led by three of Li Mu's confidants to attack Jibei, Jiaodong, and Jimo respectively.
As for Li Mu himself, he led the remaining [-] main force and went straight to Linzi, the capital of Qi!In this regard, Han Fei also raised some concerns: "[-], will there be insufficient troops?"
"not enough?"
Hearing this, Li Mu couldn't help laughing: "Let me tell you this, as long as I have explosives, let alone [-], give me [-] troops, and I can still take down Linzi City!"
Now Li Mu is full of confidence!The victory news from Changguo City was sent to King Zhao's Palace in Handan City almost immediately.
"Come on, Concubine Ai, let's play for a while, hahaha!"
In the bedroom in the night, Zhao Wang's happy laughter echoed.
Suddenly, the eunuch Ling quickly walked into the palace: "My lord, my lord, good news, great victory on the front line!"
Undoubtedly, the sudden interruption of the eunuch order made Zhao Wang very upset at first, but after hearing the word "great victory", Zhao Wang still stood still: "Li Mu won?"
Eunuch Ling said excitedly: "We won, not only conquered the city of Chang, but also wiped out the army of Qi, and killed Kuang Liang, the great Sima of Qi!"
