When Zhao Mu bid farewell to Yu Tong, Meng Tian had already rushed over from Meng Tian's residence, which was not far from Zhao Mu's residence.
Zhao Mu invited him into the study.
Meng Tian said," Grandfather has attacked Jinyang City a few times. Although he succeeded, he suffered heavy losses every time. Moreover, the rule of Jinyang cannot be sustained. Once the army leaves, the Zhao army can immediately cooperate with the help of the Jinyang people and take back Jinyang City.”
"Marquis Wenxin only gave you 30,000 soldiers. For the siege, you need at least ten times the number of soldiers in the city. However, there were already 30,000 Zhao troops in Jinyang City. It would be too difficult to take down Jinyang City with only 30,000 people.”
Zhao Mu said," The order has been given. Minister Lyu is righteous. I cannot refuse this order. After I leave, Brother Meng, I hope you can join Wang He's Pingyang Heavy Armor Army."”
Meng Tian frowned. The Ping Yang Heavy Armor Army was an army that Wang He was building with Lu Buwei's support.
At the same time, Meng Ao started to build the Golden Fire Cavalry with Lu Buwei's support, as well as the Wang Clan's Hundred-Battle Armored Soldiers and the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry under the King of Qin.
These were Lu Buwei's plans for the Qin army.
Zhao Mu letting Meng Tian join the Ping Yang Heavy Armor Army was beyond her expectations.
"Wang He and Minister Lü are very close. I'm worried that General Wang He will harm the king in the future. With you in Wang He's army, you will more or less know some news.”
Zhao Mu said.
" But the late king also thought highly of me," Meng Tian said." I'm afraid I won't be of much use even if I join the Pingyang Heavy Armored Army.”
" No, Brother Meng." Zhao Mu shook his head." With you around, I'm not blind." And now, because of me, Minister Lyu and his men have placed their attention on me and neglected you. As long as you continue to keep a low profile, you can gradually fade out of their sight.”
"At that time, you will become a secret assistant who can help us do many things.”
Zhao Mu's words made Meng Tian understand. It turned out that Zhao Mu was planning to attract the attention of Minister Lyu and the others on the surface, so that they would completely ignore her.
At the critical moment, he would be able to unleash a thunderous attack, which would have an extraordinary effect.
" I understand." Meng Tian nodded." Be careful."”
Zhao Mu and Meng Tian bade farewell.
Zhao Mu took the Blue Dragon Halberd and the saber and left Xianyang City alone. He arrived at the drill ground outside Xianyang City.
People gathered on the drill ground, but every soldier was not young anymore.
These were all old and frail soldiers who had been transferred from the various armies of the Qin army.
Old soldiers like these had already lost their stamina, and they were no longer at an advantage against young soldiers on the battlefield.
However, there were good and bad. As long as the old soldiers were convinced, they would be easier to command than the new soldiers because they had already engraved the rules of the battlefield into their bones.
Zhao Mu stood on the high platform that had been prepared on the drill ground, looking at the old soldier below.
His gaze swept across these old soldiers. He even saw an old man with gray hair.
Lu Buwei was indeed ruthless. He was going to let 30,000 old soldiers die with him.
Zhao Mu could see the disdain in the eyes of these old soldiers.
Zhao Mu was not surprised by this. He had just turned eighteen a few days ago.
Compared to these old soldiers, their sons might even be older than him.
But what did it matter?
At this time, these men in their thirties or forties were already old soldiers, but in the future, they were all middle-aged people and had not reached the point of physical exhaustion.
However, due to the lack of food in this era, their bodies were already weak in their middle ages.
If Zhao Mu could properly recuperate them, it might not be impossible for them to recover their physical strength. Even if they did not reach the level of those in their twenties, they would definitely be much stronger than they were now.
Bang!
The Azure Dragon Halberd was raised and a loud boom was heard.
The high platform was immediately smashed into pieces.
The Azure Dragon Halberd was erected on the platform.
Zhao Mu looked at the old soldiers who were looking down on him and said,""Whoever can come up and lift this halberd, I'll let him be the deputy general.”
Zhao Mu's words immediately caused an uproar among the old soldiers below.
Many of the old soldiers looked at Zhao Mu suspiciously.
It was just a halberd. How could it be more than 100 jin?
He could become a deputy general just by raising such a halberd. This kind of thing was too fake.
They were not easy to fool.
Zhao Mu laughed as he looked at the old soldier below.
"You are all old soldiers of the various armies, old soldiers who have survived countless battles.”
"What's wrong? After being chased out, he didn't even have the courage to raise his halberd?”
"Do you think I will play with you?”
"Don't think too highly of yourself. This general wouldn't do that, and you guys aren't worth it.”
"Now, this general will ask you one last time. Do you homeless old things who have been driven out have the courage to come up and raise this halberd?”
Zhao Mu's words completely infuriated the old soldiers below.
Each of these old soldiers had a noble title on them. They were all people who had survived the previous wars. Just this point alone was enough to make them feel proud!
But now, Zhao Mu actually looked down on them so much. This was something that they could not tolerate at all.
"I'll do it!"
An old soldier, who seemed to be in his mid-thirties, leaped up and landed on the high platform.
He stared at Zhao Mu.
"Zuo Shu Zhang, I hope you keep your word!”
Zhao Mu smiled and nodded.
"This general is a man of his word."
The man arrived in front of the halberd, his right hand grabbing the halberd and lifting it up with all his might.
An awkward thing happened. The halberd did not move at all.
The man was famous in the army for being extremely strong. At this moment, even this halberd could not do anything to him. His face instantly turned red.
He grabbed the halberd with both hands and used all his strength. The veins on his neck were exposed.
However, the halberd remained motionless.
The old soldiers below the high platform were all very surprised by this scene, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
