I Want To Be Qin II

"Persuade Li Mu to surrender?"

Wang Jian was not surprised by this incident, he was just a little surprised. After all, there was no shortage of generals in Da Qin nowadays.

Of course, these days, he also has a new understanding of Li Mu's ability, that he is a great talent.

Li Mu's ability is not inferior to him.

Especially after hearing about Ying Gao's ambitions just now, I naturally understand Li Mu's role in this. But now that Li Mu has an army of 200,000, and he was defeated by Ying Gao, I'm afraid...

After all, Wang Jian also knew that the original battle was not a fair duel. It was purely for Ying Gao to offend Li Mu.

With thoughts swirling in his mind, Wang Jian turned towards Ying Gao and said, "Your Majesty, Li Mu is now in charge of Daijun. He has 200,000 elite Zhao troops at his disposal. He is even more convinced by the people of Daijun."

"We have not forced Li Mu into a desperate situation, but we are afraid that the effect of persuading him to surrender will not be effective!"

Wang Jian's words were very euphemistic, telling Ying Gao how difficult this matter was.

Hearing this, Ying Gao was silent for a while: "I also know this, but give it a try. There is really no need to fight Li Mu."

"The two hundred thousand troops are in the hands of Li Mu. Once they fight to the death, it will be a huge impact on our army. Countless soldiers will stay at Jingxing Pass."

Having said this, Ying Gao turned to Tie Ying and said, "Send someone to Li Mu's shogunate to make an appointment in the name of the general. Don't expose Gu's whereabouts."

"promise."

Tie Ying nodded and left.

After Tie Ying left, Ying Gao turned to Wang Jian and said, "Teacher, if Li Mu is willing to surrender, what will happen to the 200,000 Zhao army elites and Li Mu?"

Hearing this, Wang Jian was stunned. This is indeed a big problem. If he doesn't surrender, it will be easier to deal with. At most, it will only be a big war.

However, after Li Mu surrendered, the two hundred thousand elite Zhao troops and Li Mu were a big problem no matter how they were dealt with.

It was not possible to separate in a hurry, nor to let it go. For a moment, Wang Jian felt that his head was getting big, and he still couldn't think of a good solution.

In desperation, he had no choice but to turn to Ying Gao and said: "Prince, after all, this matter involves Li Mu and 200,000 Zhao troops. Do you want to ask the king for instructions?"

"Yes, I need to ask my father for instructions."

Ying Gao nodded, then turned to Wang Jian and said, "In this way, teacher, this military report will be sent to Xianyang to tell the father about this matter."

"This matter needs to be resolved quickly, so let's activate the Golden Arrow messenger and let him go."

"promise."

…

Wang Jian didn't give Ying Gao an accurate answer, which made Ying Gao a little confused. He didn't doubt Li Mu's character, but what about the others.

An army of 200,000, if left alone, would be the source of disaster. He could not tolerate such a thing, and neither could the King of Qin.

Ying Gao knew that Qin Wangzheng was a king with a strong desire for control, and he would not allow such a thing to happen.

Therefore, if he wanted to persuade Li Mu to surrender, he had to come up with a plan that was acceptable to both parties.

Watching Ying Gao walking around in the shogunate, Wang Jian was silent for a long time, but stopped talking.

In his opinion, Ying Gao was too sharp. He was the son of Qin Wangzheng and the crown prince of Great Qin. Otherwise, he would have been...

Even the son of Qin Wangzheng and the crown prince of Great Qin, Ying Gao's current power and reputation are too high. He has an army of 600,000, half of that of Great Qin.

The most important thing is that Xiazhou, Liangzhou and other places were conquered by Yinggao, plus Han Di, now Zhao Di.

However, Ying Gao was not only unique in martial arts, but also outstanding in literary affairs. All the university palaces in Da Qin were founded by Ying Gao. Many civil servants in Da Qin today are from Ying Gao's sect.

Ying Gao is the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty. Apart from the King of Qin, he is the most legitimate heir to the Qin Dynasty. Under such circumstances, Ying Gao is actually very dangerous.

However, as a minister, it was difficult for him to speak. Even as Ying Gao's teacher, Wang Jian did not dare to speak.

Once he opens his mouth, it will instigate the relationship between father and son. Not only will he suffer, but even the Qin court will be in turmoil.

…

They were both in Jingxingguan. Li Mu's shogunate and Wang Jian's shogunate were only ten miles away. The people sent by Tie Ying appeared outside the shogunate an hour later.

This still went through layers of inspections by Zhao Jun's scouts, otherwise, he could have been faster.

"Jun Wu'an, the scouts captured a soldier of the Qin Army. He claimed to be a special envoy of the Qin Army and came to see Lord Wu'an on the order of General Wang Jian." Sima of the Chinese Army reported the news to Li Mu.

Hearing this, Li Mu put down the bamboo slips and said to Sima of the Central Army: "The people who come are guests, please bring them in."

"promise."

Looking at the special envoy of the Qin Army who was tied up by Wu Hua Da, Li Mu frowned and said to the soldiers, "Untie the rope from his body."

"promise."

"Wang Jian sent you here, why?" Li Mu looked at the visitor and said calmly.

Tieshu straightened his appearance and said to Li Mu, "Tieshu, the special envoy of the Qin Army, has met Lord Wu An."

"According to the general's order, the general has said that he has been confronting Mr. Wu An for several months. He has admired Mr. Wu An for a long time and wants to meet his biggest opponent in this life."

"I wonder if Mr. Wu An is okay?"

Glancing at Tieshu, Li Mu pondered for a moment and said, "Go back and tell Wang Jian that I have agreed to see him."

"Tell him that each of us will lead three thousand troops and meet five miles to the left of Jingxing Pass, at an equal distance from your army and mine."

"The general will be responsible for building the high platform. He doesn't need to worry about other things."

…

Hearing this, Tieshu subconsciously wanted to refute, but he just looked at Li Mu, who fell silent and nodded casually.

"I will convey Lord Wu An's words to the general exactly as they are. Farewell!"

Li Mu gestured to the Army Sima: "Send off the guests for me!"

"promise."

A quarter of an hour later, Sima from the Chinese Army returned and said to Li Mu, "Mr. Wu An, do you really want to see Wang Jian?"

"And this special envoy of the Qin Army, why should we put him back? These days, our soldiers have suffered heavy casualties. Mr. Wu An, it is too late to chase him now!"

Looking at the army commander, Li Mu shook his head and reprimanded, "Two armies are facing each other. It is an iron rule in the army not to kill the envoy."

"What's more, now that the Qin army has the upper hand and a general kills the Qin army's envoy, the Qin army will be furious and anger the people of Daijun."

"These days, our soldiers have suffered casualties, and the Qin army has also suffered casualties."

Li Mu walked over and patted the Chinese Army Sima on the shoulder, and said with sincerity, "This is war!"

"It's a life-and-death war. We are fighting for two countries, not playing house."

"You remember, as long as there is a war, there will be death. No one can avoid this. Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of the Qin State, was so arrogant that he suffered heavy casualties in Changping!"
