"The demon clan suddenly withdrew from Chu territory. Has the reason been found out?"
Lu Buwei shook his head: "No, the demon tribes who attacked Chu are retreating to the far west, but more demon tribes have scattered to all parts of the world.
Your Majesty, after the demon tribe retreats, can we appropriately reduce the troops stationed on the western front of Great Qin?"
Zhao Huaizhong: "The demon clan retreated on its own initiative, not defeated by us.
They maintain the power to attack again at any time. Not only can we on the Western Front of Great Qin not retreat, but we must be more vigilant. We order the border guards on the Western Front to be brave, set up more checkpoints, and increase the number of scouts to prevent the monsters from coming back."
"No." Lu Buwei said.
"Wang Jian's attack on Zhao, how is the progress?"
"The troops were raised four days ago. The Zhao people sent Li Mu as commander and gathered 150,000 troops to confront our army outside Qiuyang City. They have fought twice in the past four days, but the scale was not large."
Lu Buwei said: "General Wang Jian has always used troops safely and has great momentum. According to my experience, the battle against Zhao will not have any results in the short term."
After Lu Buwei left, Zhao Huaizhong pondered for a long time.
Why did the demon tribe suddenly retreat?
He thought for a while but had no idea, so he wrote several letters at his desk and sent them out.

Two days later, Zhao Di border town, Qiu Yang.
Li Mu stood on the top of the wall and watched the Qin army's appearance.
A few miles outside the city, a vanguard battalion of the Qin army set up camp on the high ground, with their troops spread out and their flags stretched out.
Outside the camp, there are dense pits, fences, snagging ropes, and criss-crossing formations, forming a strong defensive force.
The defense of the Qin army's camp was airtight.
Looking at the Qin army's appearance, the elite soldiers and horses are intimidating.
Li Mu watched for a moment and then said: "Who is the commander of the Qin vanguard army?"
"Outside the city of Qiuyang, there is a vanguard on the left led by the famous Qin general Fan Yuqi, commanding an army of 50,000.
The right vanguard army is commanded by Wang Ben, commanding 40,000 troops to attack our Gucheng forty miles away from Qiuyang.
The commander-in-chief of the Qin army, Wang Jian, personally led more than 100,000 elite troops to camp between the two vanguard armies to maintain support for the two armies at all times.
The Qin people and horses are so fast that they can cover dozens of miles in a blink of an eye, and our army has no chance to attack the camp."
After listening to the introduction by the deputy general next to him, Li Mu nodded slightly.
At this time, a soldier came up from the city: "General, the King of Qin sent someone to deliver a message. General, do you want to check it?"
"Send it over." Li Mu said.
The soldiers immediately stepped forward and presented Zhao Huaizhong's handwritten letter.
Li Mu took it, with a little curiosity on his face, and looked at the letter in his hand: "Is this the paper thing invented by the Qin people?
I have heard people say that the current Qin Lord attaches great importance to the creation of objects, and it is said that he has improved many other kinds of objects."
The lieutenant general nodded to one side: "I have also heard that usually those who have broad hobbies are those who do not change their intentions and rarely achieve great achievements, but King Qin is an exception.
In particular, his talent for cultivation deserves to be rated as unparalleled in the past and the present. I have searched through ancient books and found only a few great sages in history who can compare with him."
Li Mu looked down at the letter in his hand in silence.
After he read the letter, his expression changed, and there was a hint of shock and anger on his face.
The deputy general saw that the coach's mood changed so obviously, so he couldn't help but ask: "General, what did King Qin say in his letter?"
Li Mu Surong said: "The King of Qin said that he also wrote a letter to the king, and clearly told me what Qin would do next if it attacks Zhao, and how the king would respond."
The deputy general was a little confused when he heard this, but seeing Li Mu's heavy expression, he didn't dare to continue asking.
"Come here." Li Mu shouted.
