Chapter 164 Does the lord appreciate Li Mu too much?

Although heavy cavalry and light cavalry are both cavalry, there are actually huge differences.

The light cavalry emphasizes agility, coming and going like the wind, long-range harassment, and a cavalry technique that can be shot in every possible way. Except for pursuing the enemy's defeated soldiers, there are few times when fighting head-on with the enemy.

The heavy cavalry emphasized that the explosion was a group charge like a tank, a sharp weapon for fighting heads, and a wild weapon that used a spear and a big knife to cut off countless enemy heads from the front! These two types of troops were completely different and even completely different. Li Mu actually completed the transformation from a light cavalry commander to a heavy cavalry commander in just ten days.

This is like a pilot in later generations ran to a warship to be a captain, and then actually overturned another old captain during the exercise in a short time.

Too strong, right?

A moment later, Li Mu, who was still sweating on his forehead, quickly climbed up to the platform and came to Zhao Kuo: "Li Mu has seen you!"

Zhao Kuo glanced at Li Mu and suddenly asked, "Did you come up with your charge formation?"

As the one who created the Chiyou Army, no one in this world knows everything about the Chiyou Army better than Zhao Kuo.

Li Mu nodded and said, "When I return to you, my subordinates found that if I use the usual square array when charging, the impact force is not too strong.

After trying many formations, my subordinates found that the goose-shaped formation is the most impactful formation."

Zhao Kuo was silent for a while, with no expression on his face, but a huge wave had already stirred up in his heart.

It was possible to discover the insufficient impact power of the Chiyou Army formation and come up with a way to improve it, and finally a new formation with stronger power than the original formation was born. It only took ten days to do this... At this moment, even Zhao Kuo was a little jealous of Li Mu's talent in cavalry.

This guy was born for the cavalry! Zhao Kuo took a deep breath, suddenly turned to Xu Li beside him and said, "Uncle Xu, from today on, you, the chief general of Chiyou Army, don't have to do it."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Kuo turned his eyes on Li Mu: "Li Mu, from now on, you will be the chief general of Chiyou's army and the partial general of my Great Zhao army!"

After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, Xu Li was nothing, but Li Mu was stunned.

You should know that ten days ago, Li Mu was just an unknown cavalry general in the Zhao army.

But now, Li Mu has not only risen from a hundred generals to the point of commanding Wu Xinjun's confidant private army, but also directly becomes a partial general of the Zhao army and becomes a veritable general! Li Mu knelt on one knee at Zhao Kuo with a bang: "Li Mu thanks for your trust. If you don't abandon him, Li Mu is willing to be the minister of the king and follow him to fight!"

Li Mu is not a fool, nor is he a person who knows how to repay kindness. Zhao Kuo trusts and appreciates Li Mu so much. If Li Mu doesn't know how to express something, it's really not Li Mu.

What's more, following Zhao Kuo, the world's number one general, is equivalent to having a world's number one master as a guide. This is simply the happiest choice for everyone who is determined to become a world's famous general.

Li Mu could not think of any reason for not following Zhao Kuo.

What Li Mu didn't know was that when Zhao Kuo heard this, he was no less surprised than him! Zhao Kuo laughed, stepped forward and helped Li Mu up with both hands, and said very seriously: "Li Mu, I have your help, just like King Wen has gotten Jiang Taigong! From now on, you will be the Sima of my Zhao Mansion!"

The words Zhao Kuo said were not noticed by Li Mu, who was extremely excited to be Zhao Kuo's confidant at this moment, but Xu Li, who was behind Zhao Kuo, could clearly understand them.

Xu Li looked at Li Mu with a thoughtful expression on his face.

The order Li Mu became the chief general of Chiyou Army was announced by Zhao Kuo on the spot. The soldiers of Chiyou Army had no objection. After all, Li Mu's command ability was there, and the army always believed that the strong were respected. It was believed that everyone believed that Li Mu could rise to power with a strong position.

After reading the order, Zhao Kuo encouraged Li Mu a few more words, then took Xu Li away from Chiyou's military camp and turned back to Zhao's army commander's tent.

On the way, Xu Li wanted to speak but stopped for a few moments, and finally couldn't help but say, "Master, I think you have taken that Li Mu too seriously?"

Zhao Kuo looked at Xu Li with a smile and said, "Is that true?"

Xu Li nodded seriously and said, "Master, don't forget that Li Mu was only a hundred generals not long ago, but now he has become the chief general of Chiyou's army and the partial general of Da Zhao. Such promotion speed is unheard of. If it is spread, it will make people have some bad statements about the lord."

"Bad statement?"

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Does I mean I am nepotism?

But Uncle Xu, weren’t you promoted from an ordinary subordinate next to my father to the National Guard?”

Xu Li sighed and said, "The old minister is not boasting. The old minister was promoted by killing the Qin general Hu Yang in the Battle of Yanyu. Li Mu has not made any contributions but has been able to serve as a partial general. Others must have opinions."

Zhao Kuo waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Xu, when did I miss the look of people?

Li Mu is definitely a peerless general. Uncle Xu, please wait and see. He will definitely be able to perform in the next battle and convince everyone.

"Xu Li shook his head and closed his mouth, but he was still a little dissatisfied.

Xu Li had long been convinced of Zhao Kuo's military talent, but Li Mu was only twenty years old and just a hundred generals who had just begun to emerge. Is he that strong?

Zhao Kuo even compared Li Mu to Jiang Taigong! Indeed, Xu Li, as the former chief general of Chiyou Army, admitted that he also knew that Li Mu's change in the war formation had greatly improved the impact of the entire Chiyou Army, but this can prove that Li Mu must be worthy of the position of chief general of Chiyou Army and be worthy of the position of General Zhao State?

Once Li Mu does not perform well, will people blame Li Mu?

No, people will only mock Zhao Kuo, Wu Xinjun, saying that Wu Xinjun is unaware of people! As Zhao Kuo's number one trusted retainer, Xu Li certainly could not allow Zhao Kuo to be ridiculed like this, so he still made suggestions even though he knew that Zhao Kuo most of his disapproval was not.

It’s a pity... Xu Li sighed and thought to himself: "Forget it, I can only hope that Li Mu will not perform too poorly when he goes to the battlefield. After all,... Chi Youjun is still very strong!"

Thinking of this, Xu Li's mood became much calmer.

But after returning to the general's tent, the two subsequent news made Zhao Kuo and Xu Li, the king and minister, unable to calm down.

The first news is: "Jun Hou, the Wei and Han Allied Forces captured Anyi yesterday!"

The second news is: "Jun Hou, the main force of the Qin army led by Bai Qi disappeared!"
