The head coach of Qin this time was Wang Jian, and his son Wang Ben was his son. Although Wang Li, the grandson, could not get first-hand news, he could occasionally read out the tension of the battle from his family letters.

As long as Li Mu is still there, Zhao State will be basically as solid as a stolen soul and can bite it from time to time. However, the soldiers from Qin State sent them in batches and burning money every day. Wang Jian, as the commander-in-chief of the attack on Zhao, was very worried. The more he wrote, the fewer and fewer letters at home, basically letting people write for his pen to report his safety.

In contrast, Ying Zheng was confident in this battle.

If you want to talk about who Ying Zheng wants to get rid of the most among the six kingdoms, it is certainly the State of Zhao. When you think of the days he spent in Zhao, and when you think of the empress dowager who once depended on each other but later turned against each other, Ying Zheng felt that Zhao should not exist in the world any longer.

Therefore, Wang Jian's repeated unfavorable battles, and Ying Zheng not only did not get angry, but also sent people friendly to ask Wang Jian, "Whether there are enough people, do you want to send more people?" "Whether there is enough food, do you want to transport more people?" His request is very simple: no matter who is not rich or not, you can defeat Zhao State for me.

Wang Jian replied in a vague letter saying that there was enough people and money, but Li Mu from Zhao State was still there, and this battle was not easy to fight.

When Ying Zheng received this news, he was not in a hurry. He just paused to send more people to the front line and waited quietly for the turnaround.

This turn is coming quite quickly.

Dunruo, who had already paid a lot of money to the King of Zhao, came to Guo Kai's line.

Most people may not recognize Guo Kai, but he is an important figure in Zhao State because he made great contributions to supporting him when King Zhao succeeded to the throne. King Zhao regards him as his teacher and as his trusted minister.

He did a big thing: forcing Lian Po to leave.

It was Lian Po who had "harmony between generals and ministers" with Lin Xiangru.

Before King Zhao succeeded to the throne, Lian Po looked down on the villain Guo Kai and had scolded him in public.

With such a festival before, Guo Kai took power and naturally tried his best to exclude Lian Po in front of King Zhao, forcing Lian Po to escape and protect himself.

Later, wars broke out frequently, and King Zhao remembered the veteran and wanted to send someone to invite him back, and sent someone to see how Lian Po was in good health.

After Guo Kai found out, he bribed the other party and made some small moves, and asked someone to report to King Zhao: "The old general has a very strong appetite, but his stomach is not very good. He went to the toilet three times in a while."

When King Zhao heard that Lian Po was in poor health and he would definitely not be able to fight, so he did not ask someone to recall Lian Po again.

Lian Po ended up in depression in Chu State.

Such a person is obviously the best candidate to implement the plan of disagreement, because he values ​​himself the most and the immediate interests. He will never pursue any family, country, and the reputation will be left in history.

The soft-will quietly sent someone to approach Guo Kai and spread the words "Li Mu threatened to ask the king to kill you after this battle" in Guo Kai's ear, which caused several thrilling "accidents", which scared Guo Kai so much that he couldn't sleep at night and gradually became afraid of Li Mu.

As Li Mu's reputation became more and more popular and more news of victory became more and more, Guo Kai was completely in panic.

There is no way. Li Mu is at its peak now, and even the king wants to give him three points. The king’s favorite brother-in-law is sent by the king to apologize to Li Mu. What is the head of a mere minister?

The more Guo Kai thought about it, the more he felt that he could not sit still and wait for death.

At this time, the time is completely ripe.

Dunruo and he had a lot of money to meet Guo Kai secretly, encouraging Guo Kai to either ignore it or do a big shot.

Dunruo still stood at Guo Kai's perspective and complained to him: "You have practiced the straight path for the king, and the people have complained, and they all hate you to the core. But the king wants to practice, can you still not succeed? You have been criticized for the king, and what did you get in the end?"

After hearing this, Guo Kai felt that he was his confidant. Although he made some money in the middle, practicing straight road was what King Zhao meant. How could he blame him?

Now that the war is in a hurry, Li Mu is biased against him again. He turns back and lacks military use. Maybe the king will search his house to make up for the vacancy. So who did he work hard for?

Guo Kai asked, "What should I do, sir?"

Dunruo immediately told Guo Kai his advice, asking Guo Kai to call the entire treason to transfer the two generals in the army to question. If they refused to return, they would directly say that they would not obey the order and kill them; if they were willing to return, they would kill them according to the charges after they came back.

As for evidence of crime, this is easy to fool. Anyway, King Zhao believes in you, just use it freely.

When Li Mu is gone, you will persuade King Zhao to surrender. It is best if you are the representative to surrender. In this way, you will be the same as sending the entire Zhao State to Qin State. Who has the greatest contribution than you? You will definitely enjoy endless wealth and glory in the future. No matter how much the people of Zhao State hate you, their country will be destroyed, what can you do to you?

Guo Kai could force Lian Po away because of his personal grudge. Naturally, his personal character would not be very noble. He thought about his fear recently, thought about King Zhao might be thinking about his wealth, and thought about the scolding he had been scolded over the years, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was so weak that he was right.

Anyway, even if Zhao State is destroyed, Li Mu cannot continue to be proud.

Moreover, it is indeed an unparalleled achievement to surrender to Qin!

After Guo Kai returned, he immediately summoned his confidant to plan the secret.

As soon as Guo Kai entered the market, the Qin State's spy plan arranged by Zhao State began to run at high speed.

A major event also happened in Qin State at this time.

The Empress Dowager Huayang died of illness.

The Empress Dowager Huayang was from Chu. She was very favored at the time, but she had no children, so she remembered Ying Zheng's father in her name under the lobbying of Lu Buwei.

This Empress Dowager Taiwang and Empress Dowager have been in Qin for many years, which has allowed many Chu officials to take root in the Qin court and has also eased the relationship between the two countries.

Whether in public or private affairs, Ying Zheng had to respect his legitimate grandmother, and was very kind to the Chu officials in the court. Even the prince of Chu, Changping, generously assigned important tasks.

Now, the Dinghai Shen Needle that the State of Chu was stabbed in the Qin Palace has fallen.

Many people with a keen sense of politics realize that something is about to change.

Ying Zheng did not make any special moves. Instead, he personally organized the funeral of the Queen Mother of Huayang with great respect. He looked very sad. He then started eating vegetarian food to avoid meat and fish. He went to court for three days later. He was still wearing a plain suit, and seemed to endure the grief and start handling government affairs again.

The court officials naturally comforted Ying Zheng, asking Ying Zheng not to be too sad. They all said that the deceased was gone, so the king must not ruin his body.

Fusu also participated in the funeral throughout the whole process. Perhaps because of his resurrection, he did not have much interaction with the Queen Mother of Huayang when he was a child. Later, he was busy with matters outside. The number of times he met with Queen Mother of Huayang was a handful of times.

In his previous life, he was kept by the Empress Dowager of Huayang for a period of time, but he was only raised. He had dedicated people to serve his food, clothing, housing and transportation, and did not require elders to handle it. The only difference is that he had to ask peace often.

After experiencing so many changes, he had no deep impression of the Empress Dowager Huayang. Now, when he suddenly heard that the Empress Dowager Huayang died of illness, he felt a little sad.

Everyone cannot escape birth, old age, sickness and death.

However, even Ying Zheng had to act in a very sad posture, so Fusu naturally obediently quit meat and was wearing Ying Zheng's same plain clothes on weekdays.

When the news reached the front line, Wang Jian temporarily stopped moving and ordered his soldiers to return to the city to nourish their energy and prepare to fight after the funeral is over.

In this case, Li Mu also ordered people to withdraw their troops for the time being, but no one was ordered to raid Qin.

When someone else is hitting the door during a funeral, you will be stabbed by the backbone.

When Qin State went to war with another country during the Chu State's mourning, he didn't look carefully when he was in a fierce situation. He accidentally swept away a small city in Chu State, causing the whole country to take up weapons to kill the enemy, and directly captured several generals of Qin State.

The war stopped, and the happiest thing was naturally the people on the border. They spontaneously delivered wine and food to Li Mujun, so that they could also take a good rest.

Of course, Li Mu would not accept it, so he kindly asked them to take it back and eat it by themselves. If they needed wine and food, they would go to purchase it together.

After hearing this, the people around him were even more respectful to Li Mu. After returning, they praised Li Mu for being so good.

Li Mu sent away the people, but he was not sleepy for a moment. He walked up to a high hill with a sideline. He saw the bright moon in the sky, making the earth white.

Li Muhe, the general, sighed: "I haven't seen such a moon in a long time."

The side general responded and said, "The general is fighting every day and running around. Where can I see the moon?" He stood beside Li Mu and looked at the full moon in the sky. He couldn't help but miss his wife and children. "I don't know how tall the little bastard of my family is now. When he saw him last time, he had not reached my chest and grew too slowly."

Li Mu sighed and didn't say anything.

Wang Jian and his son were too difficult to deal with, and he didn't know when this battle would last.

The Qin State had a steady stream of food and grass, and the soldiers were also continuous. In contrast, Zhao State was inevitably a little bit difficult. Although he was not afraid of suffering, he did not know whether the soldiers under his command could continue to fight so hard.

The road ahead is vast.

Li Mu looked out on Gaogang for a long time and led the side general down the mountain. Before he could return to the army, a personal guard hurriedly ran over and said anxiously, "General, the king has sent someone here!"

Li Mu browed, wondering why the king sent people to the army at this time. He led the people back to the army quickly, but saw a middle-aged man dressed in a general sitting there with a golden sword, with a faint look of pride.

Seeing that Li Mu was back, the other party immediately grabbed an edict and said, "Li Mu, do you know your guilt!"

Li Mu recognized this man, whose name was Zhao Cong, and he had a bit of a marriage with him. He had been replaced by him because of the unfavorable war.

When Zhao Cong heard that he was guilty of being guilty, Li Mu was angry but could not immediately attack.

He recognized what Zhao Cong was holding.

That was the edict of King Zhao.

Li Muren asked angrily: "I don't know what I am guilty of?"

Zhao Cong sneered: "I'm going to ask yourself. I said you are so great that you should have the strength to counterattack Qin, but you didn't do anything. Now I understand, it turns out that you have already hooked up with Qin!" He expressed his hatred for those who sell the country and seek honor with a stern expression, "The king treats you very well, you actually repay the king like this. I'm really worth it for the king! The king ordered you to hand over the military power immediately and return to Handan. If you don't obey your order, don't blame me for being rude!"

When the people in the tent saw that Zhao Cong was full of contempt in his words, they were furious for a moment. They raised their hand and pulled out the sword to kill this proud and crazy villain.

How could their generals connect with Qin?!

Isn’t it their general who has been fighting against Qin?!

On the other hand, what else did they do in Handan besides dragging their backs? Now, they also want to say that their general colludes with the enemy and treason!

Zhao Cong was not afraid at all, but shouted sternly: "Are you going to rebel with Li Mu?!"

Li Mu signaled the others to put away their swords and went forward to receive the imperial edict from King Zhao.

Seeing that the above words were no different from what Zhao Cong said, Li Mu felt sad. He put away the edict and said to the others: "You guys stay here. I will go back to Handan in person. As long as I explain it clearly to the king, there will be no problem."

The author has something to say:

Fu Xiaosu: I really didn't do this this time...
