In fact, it is not that Qing Qin is jealous of talents.
In other words, just relying on two paragraphs of not particularly brilliant arguments cannot threaten Qing Qin's status at all, and Qing Qin has no need to be jealous of the captain surnamed Li.
From the very beginning, this dangerous position at the rear of the palace was already within Captain Li's pocket. Just like he was the first captain in the entire army to launch an attack on Yanyucheng.
Without him, his unremitting efforts and fearlessness, coupled with some talent and luck, sent him to the position of captain of the frontier army. But now it is Qing Qin and Li Fu who are in charge, representing the most powerful people. The elite doctors and the elite class of people.
A reckless person cannot fit into this circle. Even if he has great military exploits, even if he can carry a cauldron, he can only be a mere captain, leading a large number of soldiers to fight. It doesn't even matter whether Captain Li knows it or not.
The bottom layer is just for consumption.
If a Captain Li is sacrificed today, a Captain Wang will be promoted tomorrow.
Of course, Lieutenant Li's slightly reasonable analysis still had some effect, at least it gave him the position of assistant general. Perhaps his descendants, after he sacrifices his life for the country, will receive a more generous compensation than the captain.
But for a family that no longer has its backbone, is it a blessing or a curse?
Who knows?
It is a pity that neither Captain Li nor the future "Captain King" has any room for resistance, because obedience may still allow the family to survive, but resistance will only bury everything with oneself.
I can only hope that one day, the fire underground will burst out and burn these so-called big shots, our cattle and horses, and this living coffin. Perhaps, then, I will gain eternal life in the fire and blood.
The military discussion was still going on, but everyone was obviously relieved. Only General Li Pi, who had just been promoted, stood silently aside, listening to the retreat arrangements from General Qing Qin.
Yes, he still wanted to find the slightest hope of escape.
It's a danger, but isn't it an opportunity? As long as he can survive this catastrophe, he will have completely entered the middle and high-level ranks of the Yan Army, and he will no longer need to carry a knife to fight desperately on the battlefield.
At least, that's what Li Pi will think. As for what Qing Qin thinks, will the elite officials in Jicheng of Yan State accept it? Who knows?
Fortunately, the mission of the queen is not a life-or-death mission, and it still leaves a glimmer of hope for General Li Bi.
And this weak hope is like a carrot tied in front of the donkey's head, enough to tie General Li Pi firmly - after all, the whole family is still in Jicheng, and even for them, General Li Pi can only go. Seize this rare opportunity.
General Li Pi's silence made the military discussion proceed more smoothly.
Soon, in less than half an hour, Qing Qin had already arranged the retreat. The generals also received their tasks, and then they all agreed and exited the tent.
After leaving the big tent, General Li Bi did not stop at all. No matter how his so-called colleagues called him, General Li Bi did not look back. No matter what the other party's intentions were - gloating or sincere suggestions, these were not important. Just like the powerful officials don't care about General Li Pi.
Li Pi, who is about to die, has only one thought: to survive.
For this, he needs to do too many things. Colleagues and team unity are not worth mentioning in the face of life and death.
With hurried footsteps, the night became deeper and deeper, and almost all of the Yan army fell asleep, preparing to reserve their physical strength for tomorrow's southward breakout. Only in the northwest corner of the camp, the sound of sharpening knives still lingered for a long time.
In Nalan City, Zhao Kuo also received flying pigeon messages from Lin Shangqing, Pingyuan Jun and Li Mu respectively in Handan City.
To be honest, Zhao Kuo was also a little confused.
What surprised Zhao Kuo was King Zhao first. After thinking about this battle, King Zhao could not tolerate him, and Zhao Kuo had even made plans to stay away from the court - after all, this was what he wanted.
Others are all saints within and kings outside, but Zhao Kuo believes in the power of the gun: as long as he controls the three counties of Shangdang, Hanoi and Daidi, he can achieve self-sufficiency, even if he is not in the city of Handan. how?
As time went by, his team continued to grow, and it was natural that he would be given the royal robe.
Unexpectedly, King Zhao was so impatient. He couldn't even wait until he returned to Handan.
King Zhao was so ruthless and ruthless. To deal with a man of great merit, he didn't want to go into seclusion or exile, but to kill him directly. But that’s okay, you don’t have to worry so much when you make the move yourself.
And how stupid King Zhao is. He clearly knew that the whole army respected him, but he actually tried to use the power of the army to strangle himself.
This is like asking a person to strangle himself with a rope. Once he suffocates, his gestures will lose strength, and his hands will lose strength, and the rope will inevitably loosen, and he will survive.
Similarly, King Zhao's aggressiveness was easily resolved by Li Mu's trick.
With Zhou Qi's more than 10,000 troops heading north, Zhao Kuo could fight the Yan army until the sky was dark and the earth was dark.
What surprised Geng Li and Zhao Kuo was Li Mu's overt and covert arrangements. Coupled with Lin Shangqing's words, Zhao Kuo gradually understood their plan.
Zhao Kuo originally wanted to repeat the "Chen Qiaoyi Story", but now it seems that this process seems to be driven by his right-hand man Li Mu, and may be accelerated rapidly, but the method seems to be more intense.
In this process, it is almost inevitable that a large amount of Zhao's national power will be consumed, but there is no way. Change always requires bloodshed and sacrifice.
As long as the Zhao State's basic base, Handan City, is not lost and the four counties are still there, they will not hesitate even if they lose the 40,000 pursuing troops.
What's more, there is also Li Mu among them. Yan Jun wants to eat them all, but he probably doesn't have such a good appetite.
Of course, you want everything to go smoothly. There is another premise. Zhao Kuo looked at the Yan Army camp, which was somewhat blurry under the moonlit night.
I just hope that the Yan army will accept the defeat calmly and not go crazy and attack Yanyucheng because they cannot accept the defeat. After all, there is not much combat power left in Yanyu City today, and Zhou Qi's more than 10,000 elites will have at least three or two days to arrive.
As long as I can persist through these three or two days, as long as I can walk out of Yanyu City...
The world of Zhao is about to change.
Some people died, but not completely...
