The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 723 0031, Wizard Li Mu
Zhao's army of 25 and the Xiongnu's army of 30 returned to the camp under the leadership of the generals of both sides.Of course, the seven-day period is not a nonsense, they all need to prepare for the decisive battle.Li Mu needs to appease the army and explain the situation to King Zhao, while Shan Yu needs to appease the leaders of the various tribes in the tribal alliance.

This time Li Mu changed his previous tactics, he only kept 25 of the 20 troops, and divided the remaining [-] into three groups.All the way to the left wing, all the way to the right wing, and the other way set off three days in advance, making a big circle around to the rear of the Huns' army.

As usual, Li Mu led an army of [-] to meet the enemy head-on, and the strange army that circled behind the enemy was led by Li Mu's most important lieutenant general, and Zhao Zheng was in this team.Because he was the one who came up with the idea, Li Mu asked him if he had the guts to go into battle himself.

Zhao Zheng is really not a coward. Li Mu has talked all about this. As the king of Qin, how can he be a coward.Horse armor with a red tasseled spear, a short knife on the waist and a bow and arrow on the back.Although Zhao Zheng was riding a horse for the first time, it was not in vain for him to be by Li Mu's side these three days.

He was not only learning how Li Mu dispatched troops, but also observing several lieutenants around Li Mu.Several lieutenants have their own strengths, but only the lieutenant who was sent to go around the rear of the Huns' army was the most highly regarded by Li Mu.He is not only proficient in bow and horse, but also proficient in long and short weapons, and his strategy is also superior to several others.

Princess Zhao Dan definitely won't be involved in the excitement this time, although she has been arguing to go around with Zhao Zheng to the rear of the Huns' army, and even threatened to compete with Zhao Zheng to see who is more brave and good at fighting.

But she is the Princess of Zhao, how could Li Mu let her take such a risk.Although Li Mu admired Zhao Zheng very much, he was not selfless in doing so.To put it bluntly, it is to let Zhao Zheng practice, but to put it bluntly, it is to let Zhao Zheng die.With both courage and strategy, and also being so humble and polite, Li Mu felt that he had underestimated the kid surnamed Zhao before.

There is nothing in the world that Zhao Zheng dare not do. After all, Zhao Zheng's great achievements are well known.Although Long Fei is enjoying Zhao Zheng's life at the moment, he won't make fun of his own life.

Leaving the camp three days in advance, Zhao Zheng followed the deputy general and [-] soldiers and horses around a hundred miles to the back of the Xiongnu army.The seven days had come, and the two armies fought again thirty miles north of Yinshan Mountain, and within an hour Shanyu discovered the clue.But at that moment Zhao Jun on the left and right flanks had rushed out, and Shan Yu's suspicion was immediately dispelled.

This time, he was originally divided into four groups, but it was a pity that the other tribal leaders firmly disagreed.What they mean is to let Shanyu concentrate his forces and directly eat all the Zhao troops in the front, no matter how many people there are on his left and right flanks. After eating the Zhao troops in the front, they rush directly to the territory of Zhao State. I don't believe that Zhao Jun will not be in a hurry .

Shan Yu explained to them more than once that it is impossible to deploy a 30 army at one time, and at most one hundred thousand troops can be deployed at one time.The remaining 20 people can't rush forward, they can only wait for the opportunity as substitutes.But those tribal leaders didn't listen, and less than one-fifth of the 30 troops could directly listen to Shan Yu's command, so he failed to change his tactics.

Li Mu led 19 Zhao troops to meet the enemy head-on, with [-] Zhao troops on each side attacking. The [-] Zhao troops each performed their duties, eating up more than [-] Huns in one day.

But the Xiongnu army could attack in turn, and the 30 people were divided into three batches to confront the Zhao army. Although they lost more than 3 people in one day, they also dragged down the entire Zhao army.

After night fell, the two armies lit torches one after another. Neither of the two armies' commanders issued an order to withdraw their troops. They now have only one order to charge at all costs.Shan Yu took the lead, and Li Mu was not far behind.The two of them met on a narrow road in the confrontation between the two armies, one was extremely powerful, the other was as light as a swallow, neither of them could do anything to the other for a while.

At this moment, there was a shout of killing that resounded through the world from behind the Huns, and [-] Zhao troops rushed into the battlefield from behind the Huns.Not to mention ordinary Xiongnu soldiers, even the leaders of various ethnic groups participating in the war were shocked when they saw this scene.They were also the first to react, and they led some people to resist the sneak attack from the rear.

There are Zhao troops in front, back, left, and right. This time, the Xiongnu army can only fight to the death.But it was not only the Huns who died, but also many Zhao soldiers.

The purpose of fighting is to reduce the number of deaths and to ensure that one's family can live and work in peace and contentment, so someone must make sacrifices.Only their sacrifices can exchange for the comfortable life of most people.

Zhao Zheng has been closely following the lieutenant general, and blocked extremely tricky back arrows with the lieutenant several times.As the saying goes, it's easy to hide a spear with an open gun, but it's hard to defend against an arrow with a hidden arrow. There are really some people in the Huns' army who specialize in this, and the more chaotic they are, the more effective they will be.So after shooting several hidden archers, Zhao Zheng followed the lieutenant general to Li Mu's side.

After crossing half of the battlefield and coming to Li Mu's side, Zi Shi had already passed.When Zhao Zheng saw Li Mu, he quickly whispered a few words in Li Mu's ear.Li Mu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then ordered the whole army to cease fighting and retreat to maintain their formation.

When the Zhao army withdrew from the battlefield and resumed its previous formation behind Li Mu, all Zhao soldiers were full of doubts.But several lieutenants have already realized that they have won today's battle.

Shan Yu led more than 30 soldiers when he came, but now only half of them are standing, as many as one-third of the dead, and tens of thousands of wounded.According to the previous agreement, the Huns lost this battle.After losing this battle, it will take at least ten years for the Xiongnu to gather [-] troops again.

If the battle continues, Zhao Jun can definitely kill another [-], or it is not a problem to wipe out the Xiongnu army.But if that's the case, the number of Zhao Jun who survived may not exceed five figures.If so, what is the difference between winning and losing?The opponent's entire army was wiped out, so why not our own side.

This was what Zhao Zheng told Li Mu just now, and Li Mu immediately understood after listening.Order all to retreat, and then let the Huns leave.

In the past, Li Mu had little reputation in the Zhao country, but after this war, Li Mu became famous and became a well-known general in the Zhao country.The people near Yanmen Pass were even more happy, and specially built a Jingbian Temple in Yanmen Pass for Li Mu.The statue of Li Mu is enshrined in the temple, which is considered to be Li Mu's new words in a sense.

Afterwards, someone nicknamed Li Mu a genius, and later this nickname spread to the ears of King Zhao, and then King Zhao Jinkou said that the genius was Li Mu, and Li Mu was a genius.

Of course Li Mu was not easy, but after all this was over, Zhao Zheng became depressed.Sitting on the top of Yinshan Mountain that night, Zhao Zheng talked with Li Mu all night long.He learned of Li Mu's ambition, but unfortunately he knew very well that his idea would not work in Zhao State.The monarchs of the Zhao Kingdom were diligent and diligent, but none of them could achieve hegemony.
