Baiqi's chariot followed behind Li Mu and slowly entered the city.
Behind him was Bai Mang and a thousand personal guards.
These 1,000 people were all on guard. This concerned the safety of the Great General, so they naturally did not dare to slack off.
The reason why Bai Qi dared to bring a thousand personal guards into the city was not only because he was confident in his own strength, but also because he trusted his personal guards.
Even though there were only a thousand of them, they were all the elites of the Qin army. They could definitely fight ten of them at once.
Thus, with Baiqi's 1,000 personal guards, he dared to fight against the 10,000 Zhao soldiers in the city.
In addition, the city was narrow. No matter how many Zhao soldiers there were, they would not be able to use them. What was the use?
Of course, this was the worst-case scenario.
However, if the Zhao army did this, it would completely infuriate the Qin army, and the consequences would be even more serious.
Baiqi believed that these people would not do such a thing.
Not long after, Li Mu brought Baiqi into his General Manor.
"From now on, we are all on the same side. If this general has anything to say, just say it directly and won't beat around the bush.”After Baiqi, Li Mu, and the other Zhao generals sat down, they spoke to Li Mu and the others.
His words immediately pulled him closer to the Zhao generals.
"Great General, if you have anything to say, just say it.”Li Mu and the others smiled.
Especially when they heard Bai Qi say that they were all on the same side, their hearts felt extremely comfortable.
"I will keep my promise. General Li Mu will still be the commander of this Zhao army. He will still lead this army to guard Yanmen Prefecture to resist the Xiongnu in the north.”
"At the same time, I will also send a portion of the Qin army to join. They will be mainly responsible for enforcing military discipline and calculating military achievements. From now on, all the Xiongnu you kill will be counted as military achievements, and the Qin country will reward you according to your military achievements.”
Baiqi continued.
By doing this, Baiqi would have an army to defend Yanmen Prefecture against the Xiongnu. This way, the Qin Country would not have to send an army to defend this place.
This was equivalent to throwing the trouble of the northern Xiongnu to Li Mu and his Zhao army.
At the same time, Baiqi allowed a portion of the Qin army to join the Zhao army so that he could better control the Zhao army.
Furthermore, the Zhao army did not reject Baiqi's excuse. Instead, they were very happy. After all, this was related to their battle achievements. They naturally welcomed the Qin army to join them.
"Great General is right!" Li Mu and the others nodded in agreement.
Especially since Baiqi did not touch the commanding rights of these generals and still let Li Mu be the commander. He also let them continue to guard Yanmen County, which made them heave a sigh of relief.
"Then it's decided. I will send the Qin general to take charge of this matter later. I hope everyone can cooperate.”Baiqi continued.
"Naturally." Li Mu and the others nodded again.
After that, Baiqi, Li Mu, and the others discussed some matters regarding Yanmen County before they got up and left.
Not long after, Wang He, Sima Geng, Meng Ao, and the others outside the city saw Bai Qi come out with his 1,000-man personal army and let out a sigh of relief. They were really worried about Bai Qi's safety.
Then, Baiqi told them about what he had discussed with Li Mu and the others. He then asked Meng Ao to send a portion of the Qin army to Li Mu's camp, where they would be responsible for the Zhao army's military discipline and military achievements.
In the next few days, Baiqi led the 100,000 Qin soldiers to camp outside the city and rest.
Meng Ao led some generals and selected some Qin soldiers to merge with Li Mu's army.
A few days later, after Meng Ao was done with these matters, the army set out once again. Their target was the capital of the State of Qin, Xianyang City.
The State of Zhao was destroyed, so it was time for them to return.
Wang He, Sima Geng, Meng Ao, and the others all had excited expressions on their faces. In the Battle of Changping, they had wiped out 450,000 soldiers of the State of Zhao, then they had taken down Handan, the capital of the State of Zhao, and wiped out 100,000 reinforcements from the State of Wei and 100,000 reinforcements from the State of Chu. They had even destroyed the entire State of Zhao.
One by one, this contribution was not small.
When they returned this time, they would probably all level up several times.
Especially the commander of the army, Baiqi, who had contributed the most.
However, when they thought of Great General Bai Qi, Wang He, Sima Geng, and Meng Ao were stunned. Great General Bai Qi was now Lord Wu An, and there was nothing more he could do.
Moreover, if such a great contribution was not rewarded, it would not make sense. All the people and soldiers of the Qin army were watching.
In that case, the question of how to reward the Great General was a headache.
However, this was a problem that King Zhaoxiang and the ministers of the court should be having a headache over. It had nothing to do with them.
In contrast to the excitement of Wang He, Sima Geng, and the other Qin soldiers, Baiqi's expression was slightly solemn.
Although he had destroyed the State of Zhao this time and made a great contribution, the great merit shocked the master!
In history, how many people had ended up in a miserable state because of their high achievements?
Furthermore, King Zhaoxiang and Prime Minister Fan Ju were already very wary of Baiqi. If they returned this time, they might be in a dragon's den or tiger's den, hiding killing intent.
Sometimes, the open and secret struggles in the court were more dangerous than the killing on the battlefield.
Rather than facing a vile person like Fan Ju, Baiqi would rather fight against hundreds of thousands of enemies.
Li Mu, one of the Four Great Generals of the Warring States Period, did not die on the battlefield, but in the dirty politics of the imperial court.
Even the Baiqi of history had died in this political struggle, not on the battlefield.
As such, Baiqi was even more aware of the darkness and danger lurking in the court.
However, he was upright and had a clear conscience. What was there to be afraid of? At most, he would turn the world upside down.
In any case, it was impossible for him to sit still and wait for death.
His fate was only in his own hands. He would not be so foolish as to surrender just because of a single order from King Qin Zhaoxiang.
After all, his soul was a modern person, and his thoughts were also modern people's thoughts. He would not be limited by those rotten thoughts.
After thinking through all of this, Bai Qi let out a sigh of relief.
When he returned this time, it would depend on King Qin Zhaoxiang's attitude.
King Zhaoxiang of Qin treated him as a Kingdom Scholar, and he treated him as a Kingdom Scholar.
If he wanted to get rid of him, he naturally wouldn't surrender.
All of this depended on what King Zhaoxiang would do.
