Chapter 677 Li Mu's Unexpected Gain
Looking at the vast eastern plains of Donghu County in front of him, Li Mu's expression was very calm.
Due to the retreat of the Yan army and the annihilation of the Donghu rebels, this land that had been separated from the control of Zhao State has now been recaptured by Li Mu again.
Along the way, Li Mu killed many Donghu clan leaders of Zhao who had betrayed the formerly betrayed, and turned this retreat into a recovery of his hometown. It has to be said that it was an unexpected gain.
But even so, Li Mu was still not happy.
"It's a waste!"
When Li Mu thought of the Battle of Jidu, he felt a little upset.
When does it rain badly? But it rained these days?
It's really a hell.
A scout came over to report to Li Mu: "General, there is another tribe ahead, no red flag!"
After Zhao Kuo was the Xiongnu and the Donghu people established order, all tribes that surrendered to Zhao would cast a red flag in a conspicuous position to show their surrender to Zhao.
The tribe without the red flag is obviously belonging to the Donghu rebel lineage.
Li Mu waved his hand in a lack of interest and said, "Send a thousand people to come over."
It is still the same rule. Those who resist will be killed. The patriarch will kill the whole family and the other surrenders will be spared from death."
The Thousand Chiyou Army is an unrivaled powerful force for any tribe on this grassland.
After just a quarter of an hour, the battle ended.
Li Mu sat on the horse, looking at the many Donghu people kneeling in horror in front of him, with a calm expression.
The resistance of this tribe was unexpectedly fierce. Other tribes usually surrendered after a hundred people died. This tribe was killed more than three hundred people before surrendering, and eight Chiyou soldiers died because of this battle.
This war loss made Li Mu quite unhappy. Just as Li Mu began to consider whether to violate discipline and start a massacre, a person suddenly stood up among the kneeling crowd and staggered to Li Mu and knelt down.
"Don't kill me, I'm the North Korean prince Ji Fei!"
Li Mu was stunned.
"The prince of Jizi North Korea?"
In Li Mu's perception, Jizi North Korea is in the east of Liaodong, but Li Mu is now in the north of western Liaoning, which is hundreds or thousands of miles away from Jizi North Korea.
Li Mu glanced at Ji Fei and found that his appearance was indeed different from other Donghu people, so he said, "Why are you here?"
Ji Fei smiled bitterly and said, "I am also unlucky if you don't know anything about it."
It turned out that not long ago, the old king of Jizi North Korea passed away.
After his death, several princes fought for the succession to the throne, and Ji Fei also participated.
Ji Fei's power was quite powerful at the beginning, but the other princes were not stupid. Instead, they joined forces to eliminate Ji Fei, the most powerful one.
The defeated Ji Fei had no choice but to lead his men all the way west into Yan State.
I originally wanted to go to Jidu to ask for help from King Yan, but I heard that Jidu was surrounded.
Then Ji Fei heard that Donghu had left Zhao State again and became independent, so Ji Fei also recognized some elders of Donghu, so he led his people to the north.
When passing by nearby, Ji Fei and his party were suddenly attacked by the Donghu tribe. Ji Fei's entourage was killed completely, and Ji Fei survived because of his identity.
Originally, the Donghu tribe planned to send Ji Fei back to North Korea to see if he could exchange some rewards from other princes. Fortunately, Li Mu arrived in time, which allowed Ji Fei to see hope of living again.
After saying that, Ji Fei saluted Li Mu Lianlian: "Please take me away, and I will do my best to serve Zhao State, and I dare to obey!"
Li Mu couldn't help but feel amused when he heard Ji Fei's words.
Jizi Korea is a remnant of the Shang Dynasty. Although it was also enthroned by the Zhou emperor, both sides actually maintained their apparent harmony. Jizi Korea has never been regarded as a Chinese by the princes of the Central Plains.
The entire country of Jizi North Korea is useless. What is the use of a mere escape prince leaving Jizi North Korea and being alone?
Just as Li Mu was about to refuse Ji Fei, Ji Fei seemed to have noticed something and hurriedly said, "If Zhao wants to attack North Korea one day, with me Ji Fei here, you will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort!"
Li Mu stopped.
Since Ji Fei once had the upper hand in the battle for the Korean king, he must still have a good understanding of North Korea.
It would be great if this person was kept to die less in the future attack on North Korea by Da Zhao.
Li Mu said lightly: "Come on, give him a horse."
Ji Fei was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, General Li Mu, I will definitely not disappoint you!"
Li Mu glanced at Ji Fei and said lightly: "You'd better have something in your stomach, because my lord doesn't like waste."
"Master?"
Ji Fei was puzzled: "Isn't the general a minister of Zhao?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "I am Li Mu, the chief cavalry general of Chiyou Army. What do you think?"
"Chiyou Army?"
Ji Fei was shocked, and then his face turned awe-inspiring: "It turns out that you are actually a retainer of Wu Xinjun, the world's number one general!"
Li Mu smiled. He had seen this expression on other people's faces enough: "You'd better come up with a plan to pacify North Korea within one year. If you can't do it, I'm afraid you will still find it difficult to gain the trust of my Lord."
Zhao Kuo did not know that when Li Mu retreated, he not only recovered Liaodong, but also gave him an excellent declaration of war and annexation of North Korea. At this moment, Zhao Kuo was actually worried about another problem.
"What's going on in this Leshima? You're not attacking?"
Zhao Kuo could not help but feel a little confused when he looked at the news sent back by the scout.
Judging from the information, Lejian deployed a large number of troops on the line north of Du Kang's land, but did not allow one soldier and one soldier to enter the current controlled area of the Zhao army.
Don’t you want to recover the lost land in this joyous field?
In response, Xu Li made a guess: "Does Lejian dare not fight us anymore?"
Zhao Kuo was stunned, and after a moment, he shook his head: "It seems that there is really a possibility."
Zhao Kuo was really speechless at this moment.
Isn’t this musical room still a man, and I don’t even dare to fight?
How could there be 60,000 soldiers and horses who were afraid to defend and not attack when facing more than 20,000 cavalry?
Is the King of Yan a softie also a softie?
Just as Zhao Kuo was making countless complaints in his heart, a general of Zhao quickly walked into the tent, bringing Zhao Kuo a message that made Zhao Kuo frown again.
"Honey, Wenxin Jun Lin Xiangru, who came from Handan, has arrived!"
Zhao Kuo touched his nose and shrugged helplessly: "Very good, this time we have changed people again.
Let’s see what strange plans does this Wen Xinjun have.”
