The problem before Li Mu now is that there are two main bordering areas between Qin and Zhao. One is the Taihang Mountains where he is currently stationed, and the other is directly south of HD, outside the Zhao Great Wall.
The Qin army attacked Zhao and had a superior military strength. Li Mu knew without thinking that once Qin sent troops, there would definitely be a war on both sides.
No matter how capable he was on his own, he was unable to do anything else. He originally hoped that Pang Nuan would be able to free up his hands after solving the Yan State, but... in desperation, he could only urgently transfer Sima Shang southward and bring some border troops over to supplement his military strength. .< /p>
At this time, Li Mu couldn't help but thank Gu Xun in his heart... He almost completely wiped out the wolf clan in that moment. The result was many times greater than Li Mu's initial estimate, which saved him from too many worries.
Of course, at the same time, he couldn't help but worry about whether Gu Xun would directly intervene in this battle between Qin and Zhao...
On the Qin side, General Wang Jian was waiting for reinforcements to arrive to replenish his troops while looking for opportunities.
Just as Li Mu thought, Qin wanted to start a war on two fronts.
However, due to Huanjue's defeat and heavy casualties, Wang Jian could only mobilize a limited number of troops. He chose to divide his forces to attack, but he could not disperse the main force too much.
On the side of Qi State, after King Jian of Qi returned to the country, he seemed to have forgotten the assassination he suffered in Qin State, and there was no movement at all. However, everyone who knew the inside story knew that the trade exchanges between Qi State and Zhao, Wei, and Chu were in trouble. Less chaos.
Faced with this kind of stingy and willful revenge, the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Chu also suffered.
Let’s call it serious. It seems like it’s just a small fight. It’s not worth mentioning compared to assassinating the king. Let’s call it not serious. Whoever hurts knows it, and the losses are all real money!
Among them, Zhao Guo was particularly sad because his family was fighting a war and was in short supply of money.
And South Korea, which has the least sense of existence and dares not to have a sense of existence, has also emerged recently.
It seems that Li Mu's defeat of the Qin army made Han Wangan, a little fat man, have some undue thoughts in his heart, and his attitude towards Qin became ambiguous - Han Fei, who was drunk and dreaming in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion, learned about this. After the incident, I didn’t know what kind of mood I had, so I drank even more fiercely.
The domestic situation in Qin is equally complicated.
Prince Dan, the protégé of the Yan Kingdom, meets the Feiyan girl who is both a friend and a minister every day, wondering what he is planning.
While Xiong Qi, the right prime minister, Changpingjun, is handling government affairs conscientiously, he becomes more and more introverted and pays no attention to other matters.
The King of Qin sent more troops to Shu County to intimidate the local Shu people and suppress the rebels - strictly speaking, they were indigenous tribes.
On the bright side, the contemporary head of Xiaoshengxian Village, the Confucian holy land of Qi State, and his colleagues are rushing to Xianyang to exchange Confucianism and are about to arrive.
And secretly, another prominent scholar, the Mohist School, has been secretly placing manpower in Nanyang, Sanchuan, and the inner history area of Qin.
All of this is slowly progressing with Gu Xun knowing or not knowing, caring or not caring.
………………
After ten months of leisure, Gu Xun finally encountered a more serious matter - a visitor came to the Imperial Prefect's Mansion.
Guests are a rare thing for the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, because the main entrance, the side door, the side door, and even the back door are almost never opened, and there are no servants such as concierges or errands.
At the beginning, some officials and wealthy businessmen who wanted to climb high came to visit. However, after repeatedly enjoying the treatment of being shut out and not even being able to see anyone alive, they learned to be honest.
The Imperial Preceptor's Mansion has subsequently become the most deserted residence of powerful people in Xianyang.
However, this does not mean that Gu Xunzhen has not seen any guests. Friends still have to entertain them when they visit, let alone an old friend whom he has not seen for a long time.
Meng Tian, the young patriarch of the Meng clan in the Qin State.
After two counter-insurgency and rescue operations, Meng Tian has been promoted to the rank of Captain - a military position in the border army stationed at the border. It is generally the first military position in a county and is controlled by the county governor. Because he is responsible for commanding the cavalry, he is also responsible for commanding the cavalry.
He can be called a Cavalry Commander.
However, he has been promoted by the King of Qin and temporarily led the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army, but he has not actually taken up his post.
This time he returned to the capital to relinquish his temporary position as commander of the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army, hand in the Tiger Talisman, and lead another army.
However, after leaving office, he still will not go to the border county to take up his post.
Qin and Zhao are about to fight again, and it's time to dispatch troops and generals.
At this time, Ying Zheng summoned him back to the capital to report on his duties and engage in battle, just to let him go to the front line.
"So, you will soon take the position of captain and lead 10,000 golden fire cavalry to Anyang to be stationed and wait for deployment?" After briefly chatting with Meng Tian about his future movements, Gu Xun summarized the other party's answer. A lieutenant is responsible for a group of troops, usually about 10,000 people.
When the Qin army mobilizes troops, it first determines the approximate strength of the troops, and then appoints the commander-in-chief of the three armies, that is, the general. Next, he arranges a number of deputy generals and assistant generals (the two have the same meaning) according to the strength of the troops. This category can also be called generals, and below them are the generals.
Set up several ministries, led by the captain, and under the ministries, there are Qu, commanded by the military marquis.
As for the lower ones, there are two to five hundred masters (thousand-length), five hundred masters, etc... middle-level officers.
To put it simply, a military lord and a lieutenant are already high-level military officers during wartime. Before Zhang Han came to take charge of the Shadow Guard, he was just a military lord.
When he came to Gu Xun's house as a guest, Meng Tian was not as stubborn as Chen He. He put on a black close-fitting silk robe. He looked neat and tidy, a little more elegant yet heroic - even that hairstyle was still the same as before.
Chic and flamboyant, full of uninhibited feeling.
"Well, the military situation is urgent. As soon as the deployment of troops and horses is completed, I should go north, so now that I have some free time, I quickly come to visit the Imperial Guard, lest it is too late to turn back." Meng Tian smiled and nodded in response.
"Well... General Meng is too polite. It doesn't matter if you pay me a visit or not." Gu Xun casually returned the courtesy.
Hearing this, Meng Tian glanced at the living room where the two of them were sitting and smiled, "Speaking of which, the Imperial Master is still so eclectic in his actions. There are not many servants to serve in such a huge mansion."
Meng Tian actually didn't have much interaction with Gu Xun, not even as much as his father Meng Wu had with Gu Xun, but he had a fairly thorough understanding of Gu Xun's character - nothing special, just strange and unusual. So when he came to the door, he searched half of the front yard but couldn't find a servant. Instead, he was not surprised at all when a murderous man (Xuan Jian) held a sword to his neck.
The only thing he doesn't understand is that his father Meng Wu has been staying in the capital and should know something about the situation in the Imperial Prefecture. Why didn't he remind him before coming!?
Gu Xun looked at Meng Tian and nodded secretly.
I have to say that although Meng Tian looks like a hard-core military man - especially when in front of Ying Zheng, he is actually very good at communication.
From the moment he was threatened by Xuanjian to the time Gu Xun brought him to this living room where almost no one had been, he did not hesitate because the way of hospitality in the Imperial Prefecture was so simple that one could even lose his life if he was not careful.
Even if you are annoyed, you can still joke about it with ease to bring the relationship closer.
No wonder in the official history, Zhao Gao deceived Li Si and said that Meng Tian would replace him as prime minister. He was not a pure warrior.
? ?I originally wanted to play a game today, but unfortunately... it didn’t go very well, so I gave up decisively and waited until next month.
