This was indeed a very terrifying thing for Sima Shang.

The last memory before he was unconscious was that he flew out of the carriage. When he opened his eyes, he found himself half-naked, lying on a carriage, and surrounded by Qin soldiers patrolling back and forth... Sima Shang was stunned. Until he saw Zhao Kuo standing in front of him with a smile, Sima Shang couldn't recognize the man in front of him. He stared for a long time before recognizing this face from the veil of time.

"Ma Fujun..."

"Shang...I haven't seen you for a long time."

Sima Shang rubbed his eyes again, not dreaming? Why did Ma Fujun appear here? Why did he be here? Zhao Kuo smiled, just let him recover with peace of mind. All three generals were injured. Tian Yue was the one who was the worst injured. Tian Yue was also a veteran of Zhao. Although he had no outstanding achievements in recent years, he had not done anything wrong. He could be said to be a trustworthy and cautious veteran.

But he still couldn't wake up and was still sleeping. After Sima Shang woke up, he was taken to rest by his soldiers. Sima Shang did not understand Qin Yu. Fortunately, he knew some elegant words. After talking, Sima Shang understood why he appeared here. Sima Shang seemed very entangled, just like Li Mu, but the difference is that Sima Shang had long lost confidence in the nobles of Zhao State. He almost rebelled when Zhao Kuo was forced to leave.

He just hesitated for a moment, and then chatted with the Qin soldiers beside him, talking and laughing.

They continued to rest here, Zhao Kuo accompanied them and asked them to take good care of their health. Zhao Kuo's letters came to Lu Buwei's mansion soon after. When Lu Buwei received the letter, he frowned and sighed... Zhao Kuo's current actions violated the laws of Qin. He left the Qin border without authorization, mobilized Qin soldiers privately, and even saved Zhao's biggest enemy.

But the problem is that the three generals that Zhao State relies most now are in Yunzhong County of Qin State. Lu Buwei really didn't know what to do. He knew that he had no way to deal with Zhao Kuo, and he didn't want to do that... And whether the three generals were willing to surrender or were detained was not clear, and he could not draw conclusions. Lu Buwei thought for a long time and decided to throw this hot potato out.

Therefore, he came to the palace to pay homage to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng is a person with a strong desire to control. On weekdays, no matter what he deals with, he always comes forward to supervise the ministers, but now it is a little different. Perhaps because the queen is about to give birth, Ying Zheng spends most of the time with the queen in the palace and rarely goes out. When he learned that Lu Buwei was coming, Ying Zheng naturally still had to go out to see him. The king and his ministers met and met each other, and then sat down to discuss matters.

"King... Guo Kai of Zhao State intends to serve. You know this. I ordered him to get rid of Li Mu and others as soon as possible... But this matter was known by Marquis Wu Cheng. He rushed to Yunzhong City privately and ordered Yang Duanhe to follow him to Yanmen of Zhao State, and rescued three generals including Li Mu, Sima Shang, Tian Yue, etc. Now, the three of them are in Yunzhong, and I really don't know how to deal with this matter."

As Lu Buwei said, he secretly looked at Ying Zheng in front of him.

Ying Zheng was not angry, and even laughed, he said as if he was recalling: "I know these three generals... When I was still young, General Li Mu took me to ride a horse... General Sima Shang treats me the best. Every time I come to visit, I always bring a lot of gifts... and General Tian Yue, who says the least..." He looked at Lu Buwei in front of him calmly and said: "The Qin State has obtained three generals. Can you decide how to reward Marquis Wucheng?"

"reward???"

"Uh...yes, I don't know how to reward you, so please let the king make it clear."

"Well... I don't know how to reward you... In this way, I can use nine cauldrons to allow him to eat, and use a chariot pulled by nine horses to travel... I can wear it..."

"King!!" Lu Buwei hurriedly called Ying Zheng. This is the privilege of the emperor. Logically speaking, Ying Zheng cannot use nine tripods... Although the princes and kings now use the configuration of the emperor, is this a bit too much? Ying Zheng laughed, and he shook his head and said, "Apart from this, there is really nothing to reward. Let's do this, how many levels of titles will be promoted to Zhao Kang?"

"This... he has always been strong. You wanted to give him a title before, but he refused to accept it. He just wanted to exchange his military merits for the title..."

After a period of negotiations, the King of Qin decided to write a letter to Zhao Kuo himself and said that Lu Buwei would not have to intervene anymore. Only then did Lu Buwei walk out of the palace in fear.

......

"Is this your son? They are already so old?" Sima Shang looked at Zhao Kang, who was kneeling below and shouted in surprise. Li Mu also knelt on the side. Li Mu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "He is obviously taught by Di Gong himself...", and Tian Yue was lying on the bed, looking at Zhao Kang happily. Zhao Kuo said unhappily: "Isn't you paying homage to your two Zhongfu?"

"Why is Zhongfu again?"

Zhao Kang stood up helplessly and leaned over to Sima Shang and Tian Yue to salute. The two of them asked him to get up and continued to look at him.

Zhao Kang didn't like the feeling of being watched like this, which made him feel like a monkey. Tian Yue asked with a smile, "Have you ever fought a war?" Zhao Kang suddenly felt humiliated. He raised his head and said, "I fought this cloud!" When Sima Shang heard this, he almost jumped up. He shouted, "It turned out that it was you, boy. I left the clouds and rushed to Handan, and lost it in the clouds!"

"If I were in the clouds..." Sima Shang gritted his teeth and looked frustrated. Yunzhong County was governed by Sima Shang. Zhao Kang sneered and said, "If you were in the clouds, I would have caught you to pay homage to my father!" When Sima Shang heard this, he was not angry, but laughed. He said, "Okay, very good, he has a sense of heroic spirit on his chest! Follow his father!"

Zhao Kang talked about his record of crossing the river to capture Yunzhong. This was the only one he could do, and he was the most proud of himself. He remembered that his father had told him several battle examples. After imitating, he really won a great victory. After hearing his description, several generals were silent for a moment. Tian Yue first said, "Your method is too impulsive. If I were in Yunzhong, I would put the soldiers in several important towns and keep the troops in motion. You have no way to attack the city."

Sima Shang nodded and said, "Your strategy is good at your age. If I were in the clouds, I would send troops across the river to destroy your logistics supplies, and then slowly consume it with you, and you will definitely lose."

Zhao Kang's face turned red and he wanted to summon soldiers to have another fight with them. Sima Shang looked at Li Mu and asked, "What if it were you?"

Li Mu thought for a moment before saying, "The battlefield is constantly changing, and all speculations are inaccurate. A real general, you should know to make different responses according to different situations. Are you right? Brother?" Li Mu looked at Zhao Kuo, and Zhao Kuo couldn't help laughing. He said, "I thought you were going to use cavalry to attack his food route!"

This conversation made Sima Shang, Tian Yue, Zhao Kang and others confused. What were they talking about?

When Li Mu heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "I didn't expect that you still remember..."

"Of course I remember, do you still remember when we went to find Mr. Tian? At the beginning, I thought it was my own provocation that worked... After a long time, Mr. Tian had passed away for many years, and then I realized that Mr. Tian had wanted to help me... I felt very guilty when I thought of him at that time."

"Yes... it's true." Li Mu smiled bitterly, and couldn't help but say: "And Mr. Lin... He always said that you are the blessing of Zhao State and the disaster of Zhao State... I just understand now." The topic was a bit heavy, the two sighed, and the other three were just looking at him, and there was no way to interfere.

"I still remember General Le Yi..." As soon as Zhao Kuo spoke, Li Mu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't mention this matter..."

Zhao Kang looked at his father blankly, and he asked in surprise: "Father? Have you ever met General Le Yi?"

"Yes... I've seen it."

"Then what other generals have you met?"

"General Tian Dan."

"It was the General Tian Dan who led Qi to defeat Yan State?"

"Um..."

Zhao Kang was a little excited. For people of his age, these generals can only be seen in books. Le Yi is the person Zhao Kang admires the most. When Li Mu and others were excited when they saw this boy, Sima Shang couldn't help but smile and said, "Your father has also met the famous General Zhao She!" Zhao Kang was stunned and exclaimed: "You have also met General Zhao She?!"

Zhao Kuo took a breath of air conditioning and slowly looked at Zhao Kang.

"Father? What's wrong?"

.....

Gradually, Zhao Kang became familiar with these three generals. He had the best relationship with Sima Shang. The two of them got along very well and often sat together to chat. Their bodies gradually began to improve. At this moment, Zhao Kuo finally received a letter from Xianyang, written by Ying Zheng, and the content was also very simple: Please bring the three generals back to Xianyang, your grandson is about to be born!

Many years later, when this letter was unearthed, it completely refreshed the archaeologists' understanding of the eternal emperor.

When Zhao Kuo mentioned that he wanted to take the three of them to Xianyang, Li Mu and Tian Yue were silent and did not answer. Only Sima Shang agreed immediately. Zhao Kuo did not urge Li Mu and Tian Yue, but just asked them to prepare. Zhao Kang also pestered Li Mu and Tian Yue all day to convince them... After the preparation was made, everyone set off and headed for Xianyang and sat in the carriage. Li Mu was extremely quiet, just looking at the scenery along the road and not talking.

When the carriage left the clouds, the strangeness became stronger and stronger. There were patrolling pavilions everywhere. Li Mu was still a little confused when talking about Qin Opera people, different scenery and different clothing. He could not see the future path at all.

"What?? Rescued by the Qin people??"

Guo Kai widened his eyes and looked at the scout in front of him. Guo Kai was completely confused. The Qin people asked him to execute Li Mu, and the Qin people who rescued Li Mu were also Qin people. What exactly did the Qin people want to do? Is their purpose of it? I want to hold him hostage through the Li Mu incident? This makes no sense. He agreed to serve them and agreed to do things for them. Why do they have to do it?

Guo Kai had no choice but to issue an order, asking Yan Ju not to act rashly, but to send someone to ask about this matter.

Soon, the spy leader of Qin's spy in Handan came to Guo Kai's mansion. The spy leader called him Feng. He pretended to be a merchant and did business in various parts of Zhao. Guo Kai and he entered the inner room. Guo Kai then said aggrievedly: "You came to me before and asked me to get rid of Li Mu and other generals as soon as possible. I prepared for a full year before I found an opportunity to eradicate them all, but the people I sent out said that it was the Qin people who saved Li Mu..."

The merchant cleared his throat, and Lu Buwei had already sent a letter to tell him how to act.

"Please forgive me. The Qin people did not want to save Li Mu, but were preparing to assist the Zhao people. However, when they encountered the soldiers of Zhao, there was a conflict and Li Mu and others were captured. Now, these people have been taken to Xianyang, so you don't have to worry... Now the Zhao State has no defensive power. Qin State will soon gather its soldiers to attack Zhao State. Please continue to cooperate. If you can persuade the King of Zhao to surrender, it would be even better."

"When Zhao State is destroyed, Marquis Wenxin will grant you the title of Handan and other places as your fief... You can become the vassal of Qin State."

Guo Kai looked at the merchant in front of him half-believingly. He didn't believe the other party's words, "Is it possible that it was a coincidence?" However, Guo Kai found that he could only choose to believe now that Zhao State has economic collapse, no food reserves, and no general who can lead troops to fight. Yan Ju's guy was completely undesirable. Qin State sent troops to attack, but Zhao State could not stop him. Even if Guo Kai had all his strength to assist Zhao, there was no hope.

Guo Kai laughed, "So that's it... I understand, please rest assured. King Zhao seems irritable, but in fact he is cowardly... As long as Qin starts attacking, I will persuade King Zhao to surrender... If he is unwilling to surrender, I can send someone to open the city gate and cooperate inside and outside..." The merchants were relieved, as long as Guo Kai could continue to help Qin, Guo Kai is now the actual ruler of Zhao. These rulers have all participated in Qin, and it is easy to destroy Zhao.

Guo Kai sent the merchant away and then hurried to the palace.
