"I have met my king." Mr. Pingyuan clasped his hands and bowed to King Zhao who had just stepped off the carriage.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Pingyuan! Please get up quickly." King Zhao immediately took two steps and came to the front of Mr. Pingyuan. He lifted Mr. Pingyuan up with both hands and continued to ask: "How is the battle situation on the front line?"

"Report to my king: The main force of the Yan army has been defeated and fled eastward. A part of our army is chasing them north. The main force is clearing out the remaining troops of the Yan army. I think it won't take long for them to triumph." Lord Pingyuan also immediately said, replied.

"So, our army has won this battle?" Although King Zhao had already heard the victory of the messenger in the palace, the words coming from Pingyuan Jun still shocked King Zhao.

"Yes. Congratulations to my king, my great Zhao is safe." Lord Pingyuan also lost no time in congratulating him.

"Quickly, quickly lead us to the tower to see the majesty of our army." King Zhao said with some urgency. Hearing this, Mr. Pingyuan felt a slight twitch in his heart. He had never even been to the barracks below the city when the battle was fierce, but now he was about to win, but he came to join in the fun.

Of course, Mr. Pingyuan was determined not to say this. Not only could he not say this, but he also pretended to be excited and even proud to welcome the king's inspection.

"My king is here in person on the battlefield. This is a great honor for our Zhao army!" Lord Pingyuan said with a smile. Then he turned to one side and led the way for King Zhao: "Your Majesty, please come this way." After a while, the group arrived at the tower. superior.

Looking around, I could see in the distant Yan Army camp, countless Zhao flags fluttering in the wind, majestically closing the encirclement slowly, and those Yan Army flags that had long been swaying around were like headless flies. Running around here and there, but still unable to escape the siege of our Zhao army.

This can no longer be considered a battle, it is almost no different from penning sheep. The Yan army in the encirclement had almost no resistance. There was only one word in everyone's mind: "Escape"!

However, most of the Yan army's camp had been escaped. How could Li Mu allow anyone to break out? There were more than 50,000 Zhao troops on three sides, which was enough to trap the more than 20,000 Yan troops in the camp.

But this almost one-sided battle clearly fell into the eyes of King Zhao.

"The Yan army is so weak in combat power." King Zhao couldn't help but sigh after seeing this. What followed was a burst of echoes.

These words are really harsh, especially on this city tower. There are still traces of the bloody battles in the past few days everywhere. The blood has not even dried, the broken arms and limbs are even in the corners, and the corpses are even there. Haven't had time to bury it yet.

Involuntarily, the soldiers who heard these words clenched their spears in their hands. If the Yan army is weak in combat, then what is the bloody battle on the tower, and who are we?

However, they are so quiet that they are not even qualified to interrupt. Then the eyes of the soldiers turned to their commander-Pingyuan Jun.

"My king." Lord Pingyuan naturally wanted to rectify the names of the soldiers, and immediately said: "It's not because the Yan army is weak. At this moment, the main force of the Yan army has fled, and the remaining army is at its end, so it has no fighting power." Upon hearing this, King Zhao said, But he didn't take it seriously, just thinking that Lord Pingyuan was asking for credit for Zhao Kuo.

Then he laughed and said: "Everyone knows what Lord Pingyuan means, and he will not treat the general and his King Qin's troops lightly." As soon as these words came out, the soldiers on the tower became more and more depressed.

Although it was the general who rescued the siege, he had been bleeding for several days after all. Without credit, he had worked hard, and he didn't even get any rewards or praise?

Mr. Pingyuan wanted to say something more, but a minister on the side suddenly pointed in the direction of the battlefield and said: "Look, the army has begun to slowly gather and is about to return to the city."

"Oh?" King Zhao looked surprised, and then he looked up in the direction of the battlefield. Sure enough, Yan Jun's flag completely disappeared without knowing when, and a group of

The long dragon composed of the flags with the word "Zhao" is winding towards Handan City.

"Mr. Pingyuan." King Zhao said with a smile: "Come downstairs with me to greet our general!" After hearing this, Mr. Pingyuan didn't know what to say, so he had no choice but to say: "Yes." Then the group of people They then attacked the city tower in a mighty manner, leaving only a group of Zhao army soldiers whose blood had not yet dried on their bodies, continuing to guard Handan City on the city tower.

...The clatter of horse hooves immediately broke through the slightly peaceful city gate, and flags with black and red spots shone brightly in the early morning sun.

Close, close, getting closer. Even the spots on the flag can be seen clearly.

Whether they are from Zhao Kuo's faction or those who have nothing to do with Zhao Kuo, every one of them has a smile on their face, even Dr. Lou Chang who is standing next to King Zhao. Waiting for the return of General Zhao Kuo with smiling eyes.

Only Mr. Pingyuan, who was standing on the other side of King Zhao, looked at the flag not far away and showed a slightly confused expression.

It's very simple. Among the flags flying all over the sky, although there are

The military flag with the word "Zhao" is not the general flag of Zhao Kuo, and the general flag at the beginning is clearly a

The word "李".

"plum"? Mr. Pingyuan was slightly stunned. Zhao Kuo did not seem to have a general named Li under his command!

Moreover, this is returning to Handan City. Due to emotions and reasons, Zhao Kuo's generals and flags should be in the first place. Unless...Zhao Kuo is gone?

! Mr. Pingyuan didn't dare to think any further. But then they saw that there was no sadness on the faces of the soldiers coming towards them, and the trace of uneasiness disappeared.

But, if Zhao Kuo is still there, why doesn't he lead his army back in person? Before Mr. Pingyuan could think too much, the war horses were roaring dozens of meters away from the city gate.

The guards of the palace also stopped the army and told them the glory of King Zhao's personal welcome. When all the soldiers heard this, they got off their horses one after another.

The leader quickly walked to King Zhao in two or three steps. Then he knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Li Mu, the last general, has met my king!"

"Li Mu"? The ministers, including King Zhao, were obviously a little unfamiliar with this name, and they all looked at each other in confusion.

Li Mu naturally knew that he did not have any reputation in the court, so he immediately explained: "The last general was originally the captain of the Dai army. He was promoted to the general and became the deputy general of the army." Zhao Kuo could change him from a small person to a general. The captain was promoted to the deputy general of the army, and he obviously had two skills.

After hearing this, everyone also looked at Li Mu in front of them.

"Oh?" King Zhao was also slightly stunned, and then helped Li Mu up. Of course, Li Mu knew very well that this honor was not for him, Li Mu, but for Zhao Kuo behind him!

From the moment he said the words of encouragement, Zhao Kuo's imprint was deeply engraved on himself.

"Where is the general?" King Zhao asked immediately, "Are you still chasing death and chasing the north?"
