Chapter 273 Chapter 272. Border robbery
"General, I didn't find it."

Since Li Mu is already here, it means that he is determined in his heart.If Ji Ruyu tried to stop him again, he would obviously lose his grace.

Since Li Mu wanted to search, Ji Ruyu didn't stop him.

Li Mu naturally knew what Ji Ruyu was thinking.This is not just his stubbornness at the end, but also an excuse, a perfect excuse.

If there is really evidence to prove that Zhao Zheng conducted espionage activities with Zhao as a hostage.Li Mu could use this to attack Qin, and even use this to attack Xiaoshengxian Village and the now famous Fourth Master.

However, all the evidence and traces of Jingyi Tea House had been completely destroyed and destroyed as early as when Ji Ruyu operated Zhao Zheng to return to China.

Li Mu's face looked ugly. He didn't expect Ji Ruyu in front of him to be so difficult to deal with.As a military strategist who joined the army at a young age, Li Mu had pure feelings for the State of Zhao, hoping that the State of Zhao could become powerful enough to dominate the world.

Li Mu roared with a livid face: "Mr. Ji can help the Qin State, why can't he help our Zhao State. The people of the Qin State are tigers and wolves, and they are cruel in nature. In the future, they will definitely bring disaster to the world and conquer other countries——"

"That's enough!" Before Li Mu could finish his words, he heard Ji Ruyu speaking softly to stop him.It's really a pity that Li Musheng is in Zhao State, just like Ji Ruyu once pitied Han Fei.

Since Qin Mugong, the Qin Kingdom has given birth to four generations of British rulers.Compared with the Qin State, the successive kings of the Zhao State since King Wuling Hufu rode and shot all had mediocre qualifications with high ambitions and low abilities.There are soldiers who dominate the world, but there is no king who is destined.

I wonder what qualifications such a country has for Ji Ruyu to serve.

With no evidence in hand, Li Mu was just furious and incompetent.Ji Ruyu, who had finished stalling for time, did not want to delay any more with Li Mu: "The general and I made an agreement. Knowing that you will not give up, we will have a good competition on the territory of Zhao State."

With Li Mu's marching speed and the Wuling cavalry's wind-like speed, even if they were two days late, they might not miss the time to escort Zhao Zheng's convoy.

"Want to go, did you go?"

Just as Li Mu finished speaking, the long sword in his hand was already unsheathed, and the blade was as cold as frost and snow.Seeing that Li Mu was about to use force, the guards around him naturally drew their swords one after another, and dozens of soldiers tightly surrounded Ji Ruyu.

Li Mu, who was young and energetic, was already crazy in his heart.He didn't want Zhao Zheng to threaten Zhao Guo after he returned home, so now he just wanted to capture Ji Ruyu.

Ji Ruyu didn't care, raised the corner of her mouth and sneered: "I've never been afraid of anyone if I want to use force. Ji Ruyu has two sisters, Dong Jun and Yueshen of the Yin Yang family. As long as General Li Mu dares to give an order, their sisters Just dare to kill the current King of Zhao."

"Although I can't use force for the time being, with my luck, Ji Ruyu, I can save them even if I kill the king. General Li Mu, why don't you try the power of hundreds of schools of thought!"

As long as the successive kings succeed to the throne, there will be a country's destiny to protect it. Killing the king will lead to the disaster of the five declines of heaven and man.But Li Mu didn't dare to gamble on such a thing. Ji Ruyu just stood there casually, and Li Mu felt endless pressure.

"Since the general has not thought it through, Ruyu left first. Today's general's threat, Ruyu will definitely keep it in mind, and will definitely give Zhao Guo and the general a big gift in the future!"

Li Mu's expression changed immediately when he heard this, but he didn't say anything in the end, but his eyes were full of cold murderous and evil aura.Ji Ruyu turned around and left, and under Li Mu's gaze, she left the Jingyi Tea House grandly and went deep into the darkness of the night.

...

...

There are three people in charge of the Zhao State's military, namely General Pang Nuan, who has died in Yan State.The old general now serves as the general, Lian Po.There is also the recognized successor of Zhao State, that is, General Li Mu who leads Zhao State's strongest cavalry, Wuling Iron Cavalry, to guard the border.

With Li Mu's current status, leading more than a thousand iron knights to leave Handan, there was no need to notify the Zhao court.Moreover, Zhao Zheng's return to the country is currently a public discussion among King Zhao and the courtiers, and Li Mu does not feel that he has the ability to face everyone.

As soon as Li Mu left the city with just a stick of incense, the Pingyuan Lord's Mansion and the General's Mansion received the news, and soon all officials of all sizes in Handan City received the news one after another.

Today's King Zhao is somewhat heroic, otherwise he would not have blocked Qin Guobai's several times of soldiers.Although Zhao Guo has been seriously injured, he still kept his vitality, and Zhao Wang can only say that his merits and demerits are mixed.

Zhao Wang secretly hated that Li Mu didn't know how to praise, and dared to openly question everyone's decision.On the surface, he remained calm and didn't say much, but in fact, he secretly hated Li Mu for not knowing how to praise him.

Li Mu openly went in and out of the hostage house to meet with Yan Dan, searched Ji Ruyu's Jingyi Teahouse and forced her to leave Handan. Anyone with some power would get the news quickly.

So what if Zhao Zheng is disguised? As a hostage, can't he wear a few layers of masks in order to survive?

Without comparison, there is no harm. Just look at Ji Dan who fled and you will know that Zhao Zheng is in awe of Zhao Guo and the court.Even if you want to leave the Kingdom of Zhao, it is still the result of public discussion.

As for Ji Ruyu's departure from Handan, more people think it was forced by Li Mu.After all, no one saw him coming into contact with Zhao Zheng, let alone any evidence of his collusion with Zhao Zheng.

This is not because Zhao Guo cannot see the crisis, nor is it because the court is short-sighted.It's that the harmonious relationship between Qin and Zhao over the years has long paralyzed the top and bottom of Zhao State. Moreover, there are spies from Heibingtai secretly promoting the benefits of Qin and Zhao's harmony.

There are always good and bad people, as well as preferences.Compared with the feud between Qin and Zhao, harmony between Qin and Zhao is what everyone hopes for!

……

Li Mu and Zhao Bianqi were indeed very fast. Zhao Zheng's convoy had just entered the border area and was overtaken by them before they had traveled far.

The soldiers escorting the convoy saw hundreds of horses rushing towards them.Especially after discovering that the leader was Li Mu, he immediately stood there and saluted respectfully.When Li Mu's guards captured Zhao Ji, mother and son, and Shen Yue, they discovered that these people were actually stand-ins.

It turned out that Heibingtai's secret spies had just set out to leave Handan, and they had already set up their nets to wait.Waiting for an opportunity to replace the three of them, and take them to leave the convoy secretly.

Compared with the convoy escorted by Zhao Guo, Zhao Zheng believed more in the Black Ice Platform he was in charge of.Now that he has decided to leave, in order to avoid any accidents, Zhao Zheng must make overall safety preparations and plans.

There are many territories on the border between Qin and Zhao, and Zhao Zheng basically chose mountain roads.Although the itinerary is troublesome and difficult, it is the safest and safest.Zhao Zheng and Shen Yue are practicing, so the problem is not too big.

Zhao Ji is a weak woman, so she needs to take a break every half day of her journey.Zhao Zheng had no choice but to carry his mother on his back with a bloated figure, and trudged forward across the dense forest. The three of them looked already in a state of embarrassment.

They had just crossed the border mountains and were less than a day's journey from Qin's territory.Through Li Mu's precise intelligence analysis and his familiarity with the border between Qin and Zhao, he was able to trace the traces of Zhao Zheng and others.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves trampling the earth is like the majestic roar of thunder that shakes the heaven and earth.

You must know that Zhao Bianqi is the strongest cavalry in the Zhao Kingdom. Both horses, armor and weapons are the best choice for forging.Li Mu was a master of military training and leadership, and Zhao Bianqi was stationed on the border all year round, often fighting in close combat with the Huns.

With this kind of fighting power, except for the warriors of Qin, who among other countries can compete with it!

Zhao Zheng seemed to be traveling with only three people, but in fact there were secret spies surrounding him.As early as when Li Mu led Zhao Bianqi to pursue him, Heibingtai had informed Zhao Zheng of the news.

If they were traveling on horseback or in a carriage, the traces of the road would not be able to hide from Li Mu's sharp gaze. There was nothing wrong with Zhao Zheng's choice of walking on foot.

Now that Zhao Bianqi has arrived at the border, Zhao Zheng can only play a hide-and-seek game with Li Mu through the monitoring of Heibingtai.What was originally only one day's journey has now evolved into three days.

In the last half day, Zhao Bianqi, who had just left Guiping of Zhao State, had already caught up with Zhao Zheng and Shen Yue who had attracted attention and were forced to leave Zhao Ji.

Li Mu rode on a dark horse, looking down at Zhao Zheng, who was bloated but fearless in the face of danger, and Shen Yue, who was holding a sword and planning to fight to the death, and said: "Young Master Zheng, it's really not easy to catch up with you."

Zhao Zheng smiled coldly when he heard this: "What's the use of chasing me? It's your Zhao country's decision to let me return to the country, and it has nothing to do with me."

The words Zhao Zheng spoke left Li Mu speechless.Zhao Zheng is not Ji Dan, and he did not leave Handan for no reason.Li Mu was jealous and suspicious, but he was hiding his clumsiness and disguise towards Zhao Zheng, fearing that it would be detrimental to Zhao if Qin got its British master.

However, such suspicious thoughts are obviously untenable in front of all the countries in the world.

Since Zhao Zheng could not be killed, Li Mu could only find a way to bring him back to Handan.With the current situation of harmony between Qin and Zhao, if Li Mu really killed him.Let’s not talk about what happened to the Qin State. The pens and history books of Ji Ruyu’s Haoran School alone are enough to destroy all the influence of Zhao State in front of the people of the world.

Li Mu's hands were very strong and he held the sword at his waist. His serious expression turned into a relaxed smile and said: "Gongzizheng must be tired and exhausted after running around for days. I heard that Gongzizheng likes Nuyuan, so why not follow Mu?" Wouldn’t it be nice to go back to Handan City and have fun and drink every day?”

puff--

As soon as Li Mu finished speaking, Zhao Zheng had no intention of answering.He pulled out the sword from his waist and stabbed it out. The unsuspecting cavalryman was stabbed into his waist by the blade of the sword. His vitality shattered his internal organs and he died on the spot.

Kill someone, this is Zhao Zheng’s answer!

How could Zhao Zheng be hesitant about the destiny of the dragon returning to the sea?

Seeing that Zhao Zheng had already taken action, Shen Yue pulled out the long sword from his waist and swung it out.Compared with Zhao Zheng's declaration of killing, Shen Yue is the real ruthless Legalist character. The swordsmanship of the military formation is to deprive the lives of three Zhao soldiers.

Bright red blood dripped down the blade, announcing the start of this bloody killing feast.Legal scholars who come from Legalism must be very hot-tempered and decisive people.Shen Yue's sword was very ruthless, and the sword's edge hit people's vital points again and again.

Zhao Zheng's strikes are more magnificent, which is the real swordsmanship and kendo. Every time the sword edge cuts down, it is a magnificent scene of sword energy.

Li Mu was truly a famous general. Seeing Zhao Zheng's silent resistance, he pulled out the long sword at his waist and ordered: "Form up a formation and do not fight the enemy alone. Capture the two alive and you will be rewarded with a hundred gold coins, and you will be named a centurion!"

The Wuling cavalry led by Li Mu consisted of a hundred people, all of whom were hard-blooded soldiers who had been fighting fiercely with the Huns on the border all year round.As the commander-in-chief of the Wuling Cavalry, Li Mu's military orders are the military spirit of these cavalry.Especially after hearing Li Mu's reward, these soldiers screamed and rushed up.

The cavalry has an advantage over the enemy. Regardless of speed or strength, Jie cannot be compared with ordinary soldiers.What's more, compared to the Wuling cavalry of a team of hundreds, Zhao Zheng and Shen Yue were only two people.

Zhao Zheng is young, only ten years old, and his cultivation level is only equivalent to the third rate in the world.Although he possessed Taoist skills and cultivated mellow and long-lasting Qi, he had no lasting fighting power at all.

Although Shen Yue was born in Legalism, Legalism focused on the law and had no focus on practice.Otherwise, Shen Yue would not be able to practice military formation swordsmanship. After more than 30 years of continuous practice, he would only have a second-rate combat capability.

Facing the charge of Wuling Cavalry, although Zhao Zheng and Shen Yue could not be said to be defenseless, their defeat was only a matter of time.Just after the two of them resisted the first round of charge by the cavalry, Zhao Zheng had already ordered the surrounding Black Ice Platform to conduct secret espionage operations.

"Kill!"

The secret agent, dressed in black and masked, ignored the gray sand falling on his body.Leaping high from the hidden slope, he held the hilt of the sword with both hands and slashed it down fiercely.

Not only the soldiers of the Zhao Kingdom were killed, but even the war horses under the soldiers were chopped into two pieces by the sword edge filled with sword energy.
