Chapter five hundred and eighty second congratulations on the founding of the country

A large camp stands on a plain fifty miles north of Jingyang City, where more than 20,000 elite Zhao cavalry leaders led by Li Mu camped.

On this day, a group of convoys arrived from the north and slowly drove into the camp under the escort of two thousand cavalry.

The convoy carried a large amount of food, which was seized by Li Mu from Liyang City. It was first transported to the territory controlled by Yiqu people, and now it has been transported to the Zhao army camp.

Yiqusheng was right next to Li Mu, and his expression was somewhat strange when he looked at Li Mu: "Li Mu, are you planning to burn Jingyang City again?"

Li Mu glanced at Yi Qusheng, then shook his head: "I don't have any interest, I can't burn it."

He said he was not interested, but if he could really burn Jingyang City, Li Mu would actually consider it.

But the problem is that there are more than 50,000 Qin troops stationed in Jingyang City. It is definitely a death-seeking act to rely on 20,000 cavalry to attack a city with 50,000 defenders.

Yi Qusheng curled his lips and said, "Since that's the case, why are you still asking someone to transport grain here?"

Li Mu looked at Yi Qusheng with a strange expression and said, "This guy, you, have now plundered all the villages and cities that can only be robbed within a radius of hundreds of miles, but now they are not enough to eat. If you don't transport grain, then where will the food come from in the army?"

"No, no, no, I don't mean this." Yi Qusheng waved his hand and said, "I mean, since you know that Jingyang City cannot be defeated, it is even more impossible to bypass Jingyang City and attack Xianyang City, right? In this case, why do you still want to stay here? I heard that the Yuezhi people seem to have begun to organize large troops and prepare to cross the Yellow River to advance eastward."

Li Mu looked at Yi Qusheng with some surprise: "Do you also know the news about the Yuezhi people?"

Yiqusheng laughed and said, "If it weren't for the help of the Yuezhi people and the Linhu people, how did we think we Yiqu people get those weapons under the strict surveillance of the Qin people over the years?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "No wonder the weapons quality of the Yiqu people are so poor, and there is no difference between them and the fire stick. It turns out that they are from Yuezhi and Linhu people, so it's no wonder."

“…”

Looking at Yi Qusheng with a cripple expression on his face, Li Mu was in a good mood for some reason.

The depressed Yi Qusheng kicked a small stone in the tent away, and then said to Li Mu: "You called me here today to say this?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Of course not. According to the order of our king, your Yiqiu Kingdom founding ceremony can be prepared."

"Oh?" Yiqiusheng's eyes lit up, and the annoyed expression on his face disappeared without a trace, and replaced by extremely excited.

To be honest, before this, Yiqusheng was always worried that the people of Zhao would keep their promises and really set up Yiquguo.

After all, Zhao's troops are much stronger than the Yiqu people, and without the support of Zhao, Yiqu countries could not resist the attack of the Qin people at all.

However, Yiqusheng could not withstand the temptation of establishing a country. You must know that no matter how small this country is, it is still a country. Being able to lead the Yiqu people to restore the country successfully is enough to be recorded in history.

Li Mu glanced at Yiqusheng, and looked at Yiqusheng's ecstatic appearance, and couldn't help but say a blow: "Your Yiqu Kingdom is only half a county, so what's the point of being proud of?"

Yiqiusheng laughed and said, "Although it is half a county now, it can be expanded slowly in the future, right? By the way, you really don't consider becoming the prime minister of Yiqiu?"

Li Mu said yellingly and said to Yiqusheng: "If you can have 20,000 elite cavalry one day, maybe I will consider it."

"Twenty thousand cavalry?" Yi Qusheng waved his hand indifferently and said, "At least in five years, Yi Qu State will have 20,000 cavalry."

"Twenty thousand cavalrymen formed by two thousand uncovered, holding wooden bows and bone arrows, old and young?"

"Well..."

As we have said this, this topic is obviously not going to continue.

Li Mu took out something from his arms and threw it at Yiqiusheng: "Next."

Yi Qusheng subconsciously caught such a thing. He held it in his hand and felt warm and cool, but it was a green jade seal.

"This is..." Yi Qusheng looked up at Li Mu in surprise.

"Try it yourself." Li Mu picked up the ink paste at his hand and signaled to Yiqusheng.

With a bang, the seal stained with ink mud was covered heavily, and then a seal suddenly appeared.

Yi Qusheng squinted his eyes and looked at the four words in the seal. After a moment, he finally spoke: "What is written on it?"

Li Mu: "...Yiqiu King Seal. This is a gift from the king to congratulate you on the founding of the country."

The smile on Yiqiusheng's face became even stronger. He grabbed the jade seal in his hand and refused to let go: "Very good, it's so great. When you have the chance in the future, you must tell you king my gratitude to him."

Li Mu nodded, looked at Yi Qusheng with a strange look, and then said, "You can leave now."

Yi Qusheng smiled happily and said, "Okay, I'll leave now."

"No, you misunderstood what I mean. What I mean is that you can lead your four thousand cavalry back to Yiqu."

"Ah?" Yi Qusheng was stunned: "Are you going to make peace with the Qin people?"

Li Mu looked at Yi Qusheng and said calmly: "Bai Qi is coming back."

"Bai Qi?" Yiqisheng's body shook violently, and his face subconsciously showed a terrified expression.

"Yes, according to the information just received, Bai Qi is about to return to Guanzhong, and a war between Qin and Zhao will begin in Guanzhong. If you don't want your four thousand men to lose all of their losses in this battle, then you can leave now."

Yiqusheng thought for a while and shook his head, "Zhao State is an ally of our Yiqu people. We Yiqu people have no habit of abandoning our allies. We will participate in this battle."

Yiqiusheng's tone was very firm.

"This is not abandoning allies." Li Mu let out a sigh of relief and looked at Yiqusheng with a serious look: "If you lose all your 4,000 troops in this battle, then who will defend your Yiqu Kingdom in the future?"

Yiqiusheng was stunned.

After a long time, Yiqiusheng gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I owe you Zhao this time, and I will definitely repay you in the future!"

After saying this, Yiqiusheng walked out without looking back.

Outside the camp, the sound of the gathering of Yiqiu people began to sound.

Li Mu watched Yi Qusheng's figure disappear from his sight, and the expression on his face was quite complicated. He looked like he felt a little reluctant to leave his friend and a little guilt.
