Chapter 167 Why do you talk so badly?
“Everyone, perhaps it has been too long since a strong man above the perfect Grandmaster realm has demonstrated his might on the battlefield, so you have forgotten the truth that a Grandmaster cannot be insulted.

I have something to say, please listen carefully."

Word Spirit: Eye of the Wind King, Word Spirit: Blazing
This was the first time that Gongsun Ce recited the Dragon Script aloud in front of people.

This time, Gongsun Ce recited the dragon text very slowly, so slowly that every byte was read out clearly.

Gongsun Yan in Gongsun Ce's arms' golden eyes quietly blossomed under the stimulation of Long Wen.

The tens of thousands of Zhao troops, wearing heavy iron armor and holding sharp weapons, formed a square formation, like a giant steel dragon crawling on the ground.

Hu Zhe was in this giant steel dragon, which should have been the safest place, but he could only feel a sense of horror as if a disaster was about to happen.

Goose bumps unconsciously appeared on his skin under the iron armor, which reminded him of the Qi Kingdom.

The Qi people were plagued by frequent meteorite disasters, and everyone feared the collapse of the sky.

People ridiculed the Qi people for being as timid as mice and easily startled, but they did not know that it was just an overreaction to stress.

At this moment, Hu Zhe suddenly had this feeling, but he did not dare to say it out loud.

Gongsun Ce's voice was low and rhythmic, and the dragon text and dragon blood resonated, awakening the wind element and then the fire element.

As Long Wen was chanted, the surrounding air began to flow, and an invisible force gathered around Gongsun Ce, gradually forming a huge whirlwind.

The whirlwind started out as a gentle breeze, but as time went on it grew stronger and more violent.

The air flow in the center of the whirlwind rotated rapidly, forming a huge hole that seemed to swallow everything.

Gongsun Ce's eyes suddenly opened, and golden light flashed in his eyes.

As the Word Spirit: Eye of the Wind King was cast, the power of the whirlwind increased instantly.

It was no longer a simple gust of wind, but carried Gongsun Ce's will, sweeping towards tens of thousands of troops.

Wherever the power of the Wind King's Eye reached, everything was blown to and fro, and even the sturdy iron armor trembled in the strong wind.

However, this is not one of the two kinds of words that Gongsun Ce used.

The next moment, the recitation of the dragon text representing the Word Spirit·Fire was completed, a burning breath emanated from Gongsun Ce's body, and the fire element in the surrounding air was completely awakened.

A blazing flame burst out from Gongsun Ce's body, instantly intertwining with the strong wind.

It was like a fire dragon, tumbling and roaring in the strong wind, rushing towards tens of thousands of Zhao troops.

The flames and the strong winds intertwined and merged with each other, forming a barrier of wind and fire that enveloped tens of thousands of troops.

Within this barrier, flames raged like a violent storm, engulfing everything in the sea of ​​fire.

The soldiers in iron armor looked extremely miserable under the attack of the flames and strong winds.

Although their armor was strong, it began to turn red under the scorching flames.

The skin under the armor was burned by the high temperature and felt unbearable pain, as if it was burned by flames.

They tried to remove their armor to ease the pain, but found that this did not stop the flames.

The flames seemed to have spirituality, able to penetrate the armor and burn their bodies directly. Under the high temperature, the armor began to integrate with the skin.

The soldiers began to feel a severe thirst, and their throats were dry as if they were burned by fire.

They drank water desperately, but no matter how much they drank, they could not relieve the feeling of thirst.

Their bodies begin to dehydrate and their skin becomes dry and wrinkled, as if all the water has been drained out.

Even if they tore the armor off their skin, they could not prevent the dehydration.

Under the double attack of fire and strong wind, tens of thousands of troops began to fall into chaos.

Their formation was broken and the soldiers fled in all directions, trying to escape the sea of ​​fire.

However, the barrier formed by flames and strong winds stood in front of the Zhao army, and they could not break through it at all.

The Zhao army, eager to escape, rushed directly towards the barrier, but the next moment they were reduced to ashes without even having time to utter a scream.

High in the sky, the golden eyes of Gongsun Ce and Gongsun Yan flashed together, making Fusu, who was closest to them, dare not look directly at them.

Gongsun Ce stared coldly at the Zhao soldiers who were trying to escape, as if he was watching a group of ants struggling for survival.

In the end, tens of thousands of troops were completely wiped out in this sea of ​​fire.

Their bodies were burned to ashes by the flames, and only a few lucky ones were able to escape, preserving a charred shell.

Gongsun Ce stood high in the sky, watching all this happen quietly. There was no expression on his face, as all this was within his expectations.

Wang Jian and Huan Xi's army, who rushed over in a hurry, witnessed this miraculous scene with their own eyes and were all shocked by Gongsun Ce.

"Great is our Great Qin! Great is General Gongsun!"

Someone in the Qin army started shouting, and then the shouting became a unanimous one.

"Great is our Great Qin! Great is General Gongsun!"
However, Huo Zhe, the commander-in-chief of the Zhao army, was safe and sound in the sea of ​​fire, and was staring blankly at the pieces of charcoal in front of him.

He began to vomit uncontrollably, as if he was going to vomit out his internal organs.

At this moment, "Brother, you smell so good" was no longer a joke. Hu Zhe could clearly smell the burnt aroma, which was very similar to the barbecue he had eaten.

But he knew that he should not have an appetite, and his reason and instinct were in an extremely violent conflict.

Therefore, Hu Zhe, who had fought on the battlefield and witnessed countless people dying in miserable ways, vomited at this moment.

"Yue! Yue..."

When there was nothing left to vomit, Wang Jian's hundred-armored troops had surrounded Hu Zhe. Hu Zhe wanted to commit suicide to apologize, but he found that after vomiting, he had no strength left to commit suicide.

He looked toward Handan in the north and whispered softly, "Let's go."

Near the winter of the twelfth year of King Zheng of Qin, Zhao general Hu Zhe and others were captured by Wang Jian outside Wucheng.

Huo Zhe was not a top-notch general, but in a sense he was also a disciple of Lian Po and Pang Nuan.

Although his reputation was damaged by joining Guo Kai, he was still one of the few available generals in Zhao State at this moment.

After hearing the news of Hu Zhe's death and Zhao Yan's death, King Qian of Zhao remained silent for a long time.

He waved his hand to signal the singer to leave. When everyone had dispersed and only Prince Qian of Zhao and Guo Kai were left in the Dragon Terrace, Prince Qian of Zhao asked Guo Kai very seriously.

"Prime Minister, what should I do?"

Guo Kai also understood at this time that Hu Zhe was dead, and the only person who could reliably resist Wang Jian was Li Mu.

In the absence of Qin's massive bribery, Guo Kai still considered King Qian of Zhao.

"Your Majesty, recall Li Mu and order him to fight against Qin."

Zhao Wangqian nodded, "Approved."

Li Mu did not like to have a good relationship with his superiors, but instead mingled with his subordinates. No matter which King of Zhao, Li Mu was a headache for them.

But then again, Li Mu was indeed capable and he was indeed loyal to King Qian of Zhao.

Therefore, as soon as King Zhao Qian issued an edict, Li Mu immediately gave up the war with the State of Yan and returned to his country.

Li Mu went ahead and mobilized the city defense troops along the way. He hurried and finally intercepted Wang Jian's army before Wang Jian arrived in Handan.

"Wow!"*2
Facing the army that Li Mu had temporarily assembled, Gongsun Ce and Wang Jian expressed the same sigh.

The armor of Zhao State was made of iron and copper, so there were slight differences in the armor of the city defense forces in various cities of Zhao State.

Therefore, Gongsun Ce and Wang Jian discovered the abnormality of Li Mu's army at the same time.

There were slight differences in the armor of the army under Li Mu's command, and it was obvious that they were temporarily transferred, but the square formations they formed were neat and uniform, which showed how strong Li Mu's ability to command troops was.

Gongsun Ce touched his chin. First of all, Li Mu was indeed a grandmaster. Secondly, he had strong ability to lead troops. Finally, he was loyal.

Gongsun Ce suddenly wanted to subdue Li Mu.

The dragon blood potion developed by Gongsun Ce can transform many dragon blood warriors, but how to train them becomes a problem.

Moreover, if Gongsun Ce wants to play the role of divine right of kings, he must have a palace that belongs to God.

Ying Zheng would soon start building a large-scale Great Wall connecting the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao and Yan to defend against the Huns and build his mausoleum.

It would be a waste to use the people of the six countries as corvée labor. It would be better to capture some Huns as corvée labor.

Li Mu had a say in the matter of capturing the Huns.

What was the most important thing in 235 BC?
Talent!

Gongsun Ce activated the Word Spirit·Eye of the Wind King, and soon his voice was heard in front of Li Mu.

"Is the coming general Li Mu?"

Li Mu clasped his hands together and saluted, "Yes, I am Li Mu. Are you General Gongsun?"

Gongsun Ce's voice slowly floated over, "Yes, I am Gongsun Ce, the Grand Commandant of Qin. I wonder if General Li Mu is willing to work for me? The treatment is easy to negotiate."

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then decisively refused, "General Pang Nuan is my half-infantryman. Even though I admire General Gongsun, I cannot forget the revenge of your killing.

Qiemo is a general of Zhao and should be loyal to the king. How can he change his allegiance at will?

Therefore, I will be sorry that I cannot obey your order."

"Li Mu, I am increasingly interested in you. If the King of Zhao breaks his promise to you and wants to kill you for no reason, what will you do?"

Li Mu pondered for a moment, "Be faithful to one person, life and death are determined by fate."

Gongsun Ce shrugged his shoulders. He was indeed no match for the Han succubus Liu Huangshu, and he couldn't impress Li Mu with words alone.

However, there will be a chance. Given the nature of King Qian of Zhao and Guo Kai, they will still kill Li Mu even if the State of Zhao is in danger.

When Wang Jian saw that the two had finished their conversation, he waved his hand and gave the order to launch a charge.

At this time, the Qin army had captured many cities of Zhao State in succession and was invincible. Morale was high and it was a good time to charge.

Seeing this, Li Mu ordered the shieldmen, archers, and spearmen to quickly form a defense and meet the Qin army's attack head-on.

Wang Jian took a quick look at Li Mu's defensive strategy and felt it was a bit tricky.

Li Muzhi could be ranked among the top five generals Wang Jian had ever seen in his life, but he was not necessarily the fifth.

The first wave of attack was blocked by Li Mu!
Wang Jian stroked his white beard and felt that Li Mu was more and more difficult to deal with.

Originally, Wang Jian had 150,000 troops under his command, and he had left some of them behind for defense after capturing the city.

At this time, Wang Jian had no more than 100,000 troops available.

The number of Zhao troops under Li Mu was even smaller, and Wang Jian initially estimated that it was no more than 60,000.

Sixty thousand versus one hundred thousand, the disparity in numbers is huge.
