My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 1117 The only one who can fight with me without dying is General Li! Without him, who would I go back with?

Even if Li Mu were to lead a weak force to face the Qin army led by Wang Jian, Meng Wu, and Yang Duanhe, Li Mu would still be fearless!

As long as Ying Chengjiao does not lead his troops to help and the court does not drag its feet, Li Mu even dares to say that he will maintain the draw and fight for victory!

Even if Ying Chengjiao would lead his troops to help, Li Mu still dared to lead his troops to fight, but he did not dare to claim that he would not be defeated.

A proud and confident general like Li Mu will not lose the courage to fight just because of one, two, three or four defeats!
However, the key question is, for whom did Li Mu lead the army to attack Qin? And who could Li Mu lead the army to attack for Qin?

In Li Mu's opinion, Ying Chengjiao was clearly aiming to destroy the three kingdoms of Dai, Yan and Zhao in one battle!

After this battle, does Qin still have enemies?

Even if Qin still has enemies, it has great generals like Ying Chengjiao, so there is no need for Li Mu at all!

Li Mu could not find the value of his existence in Qin State, nor did he think that he was qualified to be valued by Ying Zheng and Ying Chengjiao under the current situation!

The old era is coming to an end, and Li Mu can't see a ship that can carry him in the new era!
Wang Ben immediately laughed heartily and said, "General Li is too self-deprecating!"

"When General Li led his troops out of Taihang Mountain to fight against General Zhi, Chang'an Jun sent messages to the court one after another, repeatedly reiterating General Li's bravery and repeatedly urging General Zhi to be more careful."

"Then Chang'an Jun repeatedly reminded our king to value General Li's bravery and advised our king to be more vigilant against General Li."

"The reason why Chang'an Jun wants to mobilize more than a million troops for this battle is because he believes that General Li will be the commander of the coalition forces."

"Chang'an Jun has valued General Li for a long time!"

"How could he make such a mistake with a person like Chang'an Jun?"

The smile on Wang Ben's face was not fake at all.

First, we had Chang'an Jun who could help us father and son bear the danger, then we had Yang Wengzi who could help us father and son take on the credit, and now we have Wu'an Jun who can help us father and son go to the battle.

The more generals the Qin has, the safer my father and I will be.

The days are becoming more and more promising!
Wang Ben bowed sincerely and said, "General Li, please give me more guidance in the future!"

Li Mu was speechless for a moment: "This..."

How could I have deserved to be so highly regarded by Lord Chang'an?

Ying Chengjiao smiled gently: "Although my Great Qin has many great generals and brave generals, there are less than a handful of people who are as capable and good at fighting as General Li."

"Looking at the whole world, the only one who can roam the grasslands and force the barbarians to not dare to go south to herd horses is General Li!"

"The only one who can fight me for many battles and survive is General Li!"

"Isn't this enough for General Li to be proud of?"

Ying Chengjiao's words were very arrogant, and were completely different from what he said in front of Ying Zheng.

This is because Ying Chengjiao knew very well that although Ying Zheng would not frequently and actively interfere with the decisions of frontline generals like King Xiaocheng of Zhao and King Daoxiang of Zhao, once Ying Zheng gave an order, the frontline generals must obey it - unless he was Ying Zheng's only brother!

It is even more impossible for Ying Zheng to tolerate Li Mu's terrifying control over a certain area like King Xiaocheng of Zhao - unless he is Ying Zheng's only younger brother!

Li Mu, who believed that "a general is not always subject to orders from the king when he is away from the court", and Ying Zheng, who believed in "doing everything personally and centralizing power", had huge conflicts in their concepts of monarch and ministers and governing philosophies, and they might clash in the future because of this.

Now Ying Chengjiao wanted to make Li Mu understand that Daqin had a general who could suppress him, and there were several other good generals who were as good as him. Daqin was not like Zhao, which would not survive without you.

After you join our Great Qin, be honest!
It’s a pity that Li Mu didn’t understand even a little bit of Ying Chengjiao’s hidden meaning!
Because Li Mu felt that Ying Chengjiao's words were simply the truth!
Is there any hidden meaning? No~
Li Mu was relieved and agreed, saying: "All the pillars and brave generals of various countries have died under the halberd of Lord Chang'an. Although I have been defeated in succession, I have not died. This is indeed enough to be proud of."

"Even if Qin conquered Dai, Zhao, and Yan in this war, there were still barbarians lingering in the north."

"I know the Xiongnu and Donghu quite well, and I have sent a large number of scouts to infiltrate the Xiongnu and Donghu lands and draw a Kunyu map of the Xiongnu and Donghu."

"If Qin wants to attack the Xiongnu and Donghu, I am willing to be the vanguard!"

Ying Chengyu:...

I feel like we're not on the same page!

But seeing the renewed fighting spirit in Li Mu's eyes, Ying Chengjiao chose to continue with Li Mu's topic: "Does Qin want to attack the Xiongnu and Donghu?"

"Qin is not planning to attack the Xiongnu and Donghu, but is actually attacking them!"

Ying Chengjiao looked towards the big banner in the sea of ​​fire in the north and asked in a deep voice, "General Li, what do you think of this battle?"

Li Mu also looked at the allied soldiers who were struggling in the sea of ​​fire, and his voice was less confused and more steady: "The Xiongnu people yearn for fertile land, have no filial piety or kindness, and most of the grassroots soldiers are slaves and servants, and many of them want to surrender."

"It is only because I, Li, slaughtered too many Xiongnu tribes that the Xiongnu dare not surrender easily to me."

"However, the Donghu people are content to live in the mountains and forests, and their faith is firm. Although the grassroots soldiers are servants, they are also members of the tribe, and they will not surrender easily."

"Now that Chang'an Jun has established the momentum to annihilate the enemy, don't even think about winning by forcing them to surrender."

"This battle will last a long time."

"Changan Jun must not let his guard down, but also must not act too hastily."

Ying Chengjiao nodded slightly: "Thank you General Li for reminding me."

"But what I'm asking about is not the battle here, but the overall situation of the war."

Li Mu was slightly startled, and then his pupils suddenly condensed. He looked at Ying Chengjiao and asked in a deep voice: "Where exactly does the Qin State want to attack in this war?!"

As long as Ying Chengjiao understood that the Xiongnu and Donghu would not surrender easily and was mentally prepared to destroy the enemy over a long period of time, the battle in the southwest direction of Puyin Xing would be won.

If the victory of the battle here is certain, the remnants of Dai and Yan will certainly not be able to cause any trouble in front of Ying Chengjiao. In this case, Ying Chengjiao still asked Li Mu how he viewed the overall battle situation?

A horrible guess suddenly came to Li Mu's mind!

Ying Chengjiao did not answer Li Mu directly, but spoke slowly: "I am the second son of the late king, the only brother of the king, and the Lord of Chang'an of the Qin Dynasty. I could have lived a life of respect, luxury, peace and happiness."

"But when I was young, the coalition forces of the five countries launched two attacks on Qin and pushed the battle line all the way to Zhidi!"

"That was the first time I smelled the scent of war. It was also the first time I saw large numbers of soldiers and clansmen leave with their heads held high and return home wrapped in their horsehides."

"I hate war! Your Majesty hates war too!"

"So I made a promise with the king that the two of us will devote our entire lives to bringing peace to the world!"

Li Mu remained silent, quietly watching the unremitting depth and sadness in Ying Chengjiao's eyes.

The world's number one killer who shocked the world with a long spear and intimidated his enemies with millions of corpses said that he hated war?

Li Mu felt that others would find Ying Chengjiao's words ridiculous, but Li Mu could understand the sadness in Ying Chengjiao's heart.

There is no other reason.

Li Mu, who intimidated the barbarians with his spear and whose hands were stained with the blood of hundreds of thousands of souls, also hated war!
What Li Mu wanted to do most was to lead the people in farming and harvesting in autumn, to lead them to have enough food, wear warm clothes, and live a good life.

But in order to protect the fruits of the people's labor, to protect their lives, and to obey the king's orders, Li Mu had to fight.

Not only do you have to fight, you also have to defeat the enemy in the most ruthless, fierce and brutal way to protect the peace!
I can empathize with Chang'an Jun's sorrow.

If not for this man, who would I go home with?

Ying Chengjiao raised his voice slightly: "But how can we bring peace?"

"Rituals have collapsed, music is useless, only war remains!"

"Only a grand war with the world as its stage can bring true peace to the world!"

"So I led the Qin army to fight one after another and killed millions of enemies, and the king stayed in the rear to provide me with food and soldiers to stabilize the rear."

"Wherever the army passed, Han, Wei, Chu, Qi, and Zhao were all destroyed. The lands of Han, Wei, Chu, Qi, and Zhao became part of Qin. From now on, there will be no more attacks on each other. If there are any disagreements, they should be resolved in the court."

"I thought that after I led my Qin cavalry to conquer the Dai and Yan states, there would only be one country in the world, and there would be no more wars."

"But just when I thought that war would cease from now on and all people would soon be able to live in peace."

"He, a barbarian, has also come to join in the fun!"

There was a hint of astonishment in Li Mu's eyes.

The King of Qin and the Lord of Chang'an swept across the world just to end war with war?
is it possible?

This dream seems naive and ridiculous, but it is about to come true!

The only obstacle is the barbarians!

Li Mu also secretly tightened the reins in his hands.

You barbarian should be killed!

Ying Chengjiao looked at Li Mu with a look of understanding, and continued to raise his voice: "I have a dream."

"No more wars in the world, the world will be free from war!"

"Now that the battle for China has been decided, this dream is within reach!"

"But there are foreign races that disturb China and destroy its peace."

"General Li, what do you think our Great Qin should do?!"

Li Mu said without hesitation: "Ride the horses on the grassland and kill all the barbarians!"

Ying Chengyu nodded vigorously: "Not bad!"

"My goal is not to annihilate hundreds of thousands of barbarian bandits, nor do I bother to count how many foreign kings I have killed."

"There is only one goal we want to achieve in this battle, and that is to kill all the barbarians."

"Let the people of the northern border no longer have to face the threat of foreign races, and let the northern border become the heartland of our Great Qin."

"Give the people of the northern border eternal peace!"

Li Mu's eyes were a little dazed.

Let Dai become the heartland of the Qin Dynasty, so that the people of Dai no longer need to worry about the threat of foreign races and can live a peaceful and stable life from now on?
is it possible?

This, isn't it possible!

Ying Chengjiao took out a captain's token from his bosom and handed it to Li Mu, asking solemnly: "General Li, are you willing to serve as the Qin's fake captain and the vanguard general in this battle to help me realize this great wish?!"

A few months ago, Li Mu felt that he was old and it was time for him to die.

But now, Li Mu feels that he is still young, and he can still take his sons to have some fun on the grassland again!

Li Mu took the military token with both hands solemnly, half bowed, and shouted solemnly: "Mu, it is what I wish for, I dare not ask for it!"
