Not long after, the few Zhao people who had escaped were brought to Li Mu. Seeing the majestic-looking Li Mu, the Zhao people were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
Seeing the cowardly looks of those people, Li Mu's heart sank, but he still said with a serious tone on his face:
"You are all citizens of our Zhao Kingdom. I hope that you will answer carefully when I hear the news next time, General, and do not make any lies."
One of the older people raised his head and said with cupped hands:
"General, feel free to ask, but the young man will definitely tell you everything he knows."
Li Mu asked:
"You said that all the Xiongnu were wiped out. By whom?"
"General, yes, it is the Qin State. I saw that their flag is the black banner and dragon flag. I recognized that it is the military flag of the Qin State."
Li Mu frowned when he heard this, and was secretly surprised, Qin Guo? The Qin State had not just calmed down the domestic turmoil, so why did it have the intention to send a large army to destroy the Xiongnu? Moreover, if it could destroy the Xiongnu's 400,000 cavalry, the Qin State would definitely use the strength of the whole country. How could the spies not know about the mobilization of troops and horses?
"How many Qin troops have you seen?"
"Back to the general, there are about 40,000 to 50,000 in number, all of them cavalry, led by a man who claims to be a bad commander of Great Qin."
"What?! Forty or fifty thousand?"
Even Li Mu, who was as steady as a rock, couldn't help but speak.
With 40,000 soldiers and horses fighting against 400,000 Huns with wolf cavalry, and even winning in battle?
Even if the military strategist Sun Wu was resurrected, it would be impossible for him to do this.
He felt that he might have overlooked something, yes, the bad handsome man. He had heard a little bit about this bad handsome man who suddenly appeared. It was rumored that he helped King Qin put down the civil strife, and he was also behind the Korean royal family.
Mysterious, powerful, and extremely dangerous, this is Li Mu's most intuitive feeling about this person.
It seems reasonable to be able to defeat an army of ten against such a being. At this time, Li Mu couldn't help but worry. If Zhao Guo faced this invincible army one day, would he really have a chance to win?
He immediately decided to write a letter and send it to King Zhao, applying for the allocation of military pay to strengthen military defense.
For the safety of Zhao, he must take precautions before they happen. Even though he knew that such a move might displease the king, he still had to do it.
--Dividing line--
In the palace of the King of Qin, a horse rode straight into the palace.
At this time, the morning pilgrimage was being held,
At this time,
The soldiers walked straight into the hall, knelt on one knee and presented the information in their hands with both hands.
"Your Majesty, Beidi County is urgently sending information."
An eunuch obtained the information and presented it to Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne.
Other ministers talked a lot, Meng Yi's face changed slightly,
"Could it be that Beidi County was conquered by the Huns? My younger brother Meng Tian is still in Beidi County."
At this time, after reading the bamboo slips in his hands, Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, looked solemnly at the civil and military ministers below.
He said in a deep voice: "Dear ladies, Beidi County..."
"Big victory!" Ying Zheng's words changed, and the expression on his face changed from solemnity to joy and excitement.
"The bad commander led 50,000 cavalry, raided the Hun army, killed 400,000 Hun cavalry, and then rushed to the Hun royal court, annihilated the Hun wolf tribe, and confiscated hundreds of boxes of treasure. He is now on his way back to the court."
As soon as these words came out, almost all the ministers present were shocked, especially some generals who had dealt with the Huns. They knew how terrifying and difficult the Huns cavalry was.
As a result, such wolf soldiers were slaughtered by 50,000 cavalry led by the bad commander.
If it weren't for the urgent black-level intelligence from Eight Hundred Miles, they would all doubt the authenticity of the news.
Ying Zheng looked at the discussions among the courtiers below with a satisfied smile on his face. At this moment, a light flashed in his mind. If he had felt something in the past two days, could it be that the Huns were destroyed because of bad commanders...
After a while, Ying Zheng coughed and the courtiers stopped talking.
"My dear friends, the bad commander has made such unparalleled achievements and completely eliminated the threat from the north for our Great Qin. How do you think I should reward him?"
Cai Zezhong, who served as the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the unruly soldiers took dangerous risks and completely wiped out the old enemy of the barbarians in the north. Such meritorious service should be crowned the king."
Wang Jian glanced at Cai Zezhong in surprise. This old guy was quite smart right now.
Ying Zheng touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then nodded gently and said: "Okay! According to my will, I will ennoble the bad commander as King Wuwei, use the army as a force, and strengthen the power of Qin! Give me twenty cities, and wait until Lord Wuwei returns to Qin. On that day, I will personally go to greet you."
The ministers below looked at each other in confusion. The king went to greet the general in person, which was very rare at that time. Due to Ying Zheng's majesty as a king, no one dared to disobey his will.
at the same time,
In the deep mountains dozens of miles away from Xianyang City,
Gong Shuqiu looked at the giant creature in front of him, with a look of fanaticism and obsession on his face.
This behemoth is five meters high and ten meters long. Its body is made of dark green bronze, and the sharp claws on its limbs are made of fine steel.
This is exactly the giant lion that Ying Ziqing ordered Gong Shuqiu to build previously.
This was the first prototype. Gong Shuqiu jumped up, pulled the mechanism, and entered the interior of the giant lion.
With the pull of the joystick, the giant mechanical lion began to move.
Gong Shuqiu drove the mechanical giant lion to a valley and began to test its performance. He was surprised to find that such a huge body could move flexibly under the control of a joystick, even faster than Saburo Hōto.
He controlled the mechanical giant lion, and the sharp claws of the giant lion's forelimbs were swung out, leaving a deep claw mark on the mountain with one claw.
Then the tail was thrown out, and the spiked meteor hammer hit the mountain. The ground shook, the boulders rolled down, and the dust flew up.
Seeing the powerful destructive power of the giant machine lion, Gong Shuqiu nodded with satisfaction, with a gloomy smile on his face.
"Hmph, with the giant lion of mechanism, I want to see what the Mo family can compare with!"
He drove the giant mechanical lion back to the camp, and then began mass production of the giant mechanical lion.
He couldn't wait to see the giant lion army running rampant on the battlefield.
Since becoming the subordinate of the bad commander, the entire Gongshu family has received a steady stream of resources, and they are constantly trying and creating all kinds of fantastic ideas and new mechanisms.
Gong Shuqiu walked into the deepest part of the cave and rode the gear slide down to dozens of meters underground. Under the dim firelight, a huge and ferocious beast was being created.
Gongshuqiu looked at the black shadow and murmured:
"This will be my pinnacle..."
