Li Mu, surnamed Li, a famous shepherd, was a strategist in the period of Zhao, and was also called "the Four Famous Warring States" with Lian Po, Bai Qi and Wang Jian. The contribution to Li Mu can be divided into two stages. The first stage is to fight against the Huns and repel them at the border of Zhao, and the second stage is to fight against Qin. Later, Li Mu was killed because the prince of Zhao listened to slanderers.
During the reign of Zhao Wenhui, the Xiongnu in the northern border of Zhao grew stronger and stronger, and often plundered the border of Zhao, so the king of Zhao sent Li Mu to Yanmen to fight the Xiongnu. Li Mu actively took defensive measures, stipulating that when soldiers and civilians were attacked by Huns, they were all allowed to enter the camp and were not allowed to go out to fight. In addition, he also strengthened the training of many soldiers to improve their combat effectiveness. Because Li Mu fought for many years, the Huns thought that Li Mu was too timid to fight. The prince of Zhao was also very dissatisfied with Li Mu and sent someone to replace Li Mu. However, Zhao's blind attack caused great losses. After much deliberation, the prince of Zhao turned to Li Mu again. Li Mu asked the prince of Zhao not to interfere in his plan, and the prince of Zhao agreed to his request. Li Mu stayed in the military camp for several years, constantly training the army, and the army also had a strong fighting capacity. Later, Li Mu thought that the time was ripe, so he let the people go out of the city to graze and come to Xiongnu. Xiongnu came to test with a small cavalry, and Li Mu's army pretended to be defeated, so Xiongnu attacked on a large scale, but was attacked by Li Mu's army and was defeated in the end.
Zhao moved two years, Qin ordered to attack Zhao, and Li Mu was ordered to attack Zhao. He hit Qin Jun hard many times and won the military victory. He recovered the land occupied by Qin Jun, so he was named "Wu Anjun". In the next few years, Qin Jun's constantly attacking troops were repelled by Li Mu, and Li Mu became very famous, which was highly valued by Zhao Wang.
Li Mu is a major contributor to Tian Lei's respective countries.
Heroes are born in times of war, and heroes are born in troubled times in the Warring States. Li Mu is a famous soldier of Zhao. He has been defending the peace of Zhao all his life. The State of Qin produced a general named Bai Qi, who made outstanding contributions to the reunification of the State of Qin. So, what contribution have they made to their country?
Let's look at the general of Qin, Bai Qi. Bai Qi was a general of Qin State during the Warring States Period. He was good at fighting, and was named Wu Anjun when he was in Zhao Haoqi. In a battle with Zhao Kuo, the general of Zhao, he pretended to be defeated and retreated, secretly set an ambush and threatened it. Zhao Kuo, however, was oblivious to it, and pursued the Qin Jun barrier, which was impregnable and unbreakable. He attacked Zhao with him, and Zhao lost many times. Holding the barricade, waiting for rescue, Zhao went on a hunger strike to distract him. Zhao Kuo personally led the troops into battle, and one arrow hit him, and finally he was killed. The capture of 450,000 people before and after World War I shocked Zhao.
Li Mu, the general of Zhao, was stationed in the border area all the year round to defend the Huns. He carried out his own strategy according to the actual situation, and the tax income was used as the fund for raising soldiers. Slaughter a few cows every day for the troops to eat and train soldiers to ride horses and shoot arrows. At the same time, it is stipulated that Huns should not attack directly when invading, but should immediately hide in the barracks to maintain their strength. For several years like this, there were not so many losses on the border, and the Huns didn't have the courage to attack. Later, Zhao ordered him to resist the attack of Qin. Under his resistance, he fought and lost, and recovered the land occupied by Qin Jun. Because Li Mu had no chance to defend, the plan to occupy Zhao was forced to stop.
The Allusions of Zhao Wang —— Jean Li Mu
The phrase "Wang Zhao lets Li Mu" comes from the classical Chinese "Li Mu defends the border", which means that Wang Zhao blames Li Mu. So, why did the prince of Zhao blame Li Mu? Did Li Mu make a mistake? That is about to find the answer from the whole classical Chinese that Li Mu is guarding.
The classical Chinese "Li Mu Garrison the Border" tells the story of Li Mu's fight against Xiongnu. The whole article is as follows.
Li Mu, a general in the northern border of Zhao, has been stationed in Yanmen and other places for a long time to defend the Huns. He set up officials according to the actual needs, and all the taxes in the city were sent to Li Mu's home as funds for the army. Every day, he slaughtered a few cows for the soldiers, taught them to ride horses and shoot arrows, guarded the beacon tower very carefully, and sent people to inquire about the enemy many times, so he was very kind to the soldiers. It is also stipulated: "When Huns steal in Zhao area, they should quickly assemble their troops and stick to it. Soldiers who have the courage to capture the enemy alive will be beheaded. "
Every time the Xiongnu entered Zhao, the beacon sounded an alarm, and immediately retreated to the camp and dared not come out to fight. In this way, after a few years, people and horses and other materials have not lost at all. But the Huns thought Li Mu was timid, even the soldiers guarding the border of Zhao thought their generals were timid. Zhao blamed Li Mu, but Li Mu followed his strategy. King Zhao was angry and recalled Li Mu to let others take his place.
In the following year, the Huns fought every attack. Fighting, fighting and losing, suffered heavy losses and heavy casualties, and the border people could not cultivate normally. Zhao Wang once again asked for the appointment of Li Mu. Li Mu stayed indoors, insisting that he was ill. The prince of Zhao forced Li Mu to come out and let him out. Li Mu said to the prince of Zhao, "Your Majesty must use me, and I will dare to do it as I did before." Wang Zhao agreed to his request.
Li Mu's Historical Story
Li Mu, a famous soldier of Zhao in the Warring States Period, was one of the four famous soldiers in the Warring States Period. He is another outstanding military talent after Zhao Jilian. All his life, he was busy dealing with Qin Jun in the west and Xiongnu in the north, running between the capital and the station. He devoted his life to his country, but he was so loyal and patriotic that he should have spilled his blood on the battlefield, but he ended up in his own country, leaving behind the eternal regret that the moon shines on the ditch.
Li Mu is one of the four famous players, and his comprehensive evaluation is very high. Li Mu was born unknown, surnamed Li, and was a famous shepherd. During the Warring States Period, the military strategist of Zhao State, together with Tian Lei, Wang Jian and Lian Po, was called the "Four Masters of the Warring States Period". Because of his outstanding achievements, he was once named Wu Anjun. Li Mu was originally just an ordinary general guarding the border. In many wars against Xiongnu, defeating Xiongnu was appreciated by Zhao Wang. Li Mu made two main contributions to Zhao in his life, one was to resist the northern Xiongnu, and the other was to repel the attacks many times. It is no exaggeration to say that without Li Mu, Zhao would have been destroyed by Xiongnu or Qin. Li Mu is a professional soldier and a real star. Li Mu's integrity, life for the country, for the army, for the people, Li Mu attack will take, defend will be solid, rich and secure, showing its ability to run the army. Moreover, he himself has always avoided contact with powerful people and truly achieved integrity.
He spent the first half of his life mainly on how to resist the Huns. At first, as an ordinary general, his reputation in the army was not particularly great. Since he was sent by Zhao Haoqi Mou Xiang to guard the border, his fame suddenly rose.
Ironically, not because of his achievements, but because of his "cowardice". As a matter of fact, Li Mu served as a frontier defense general with good achievements. During his tenure, there was basically no problem in border defense and the loss was not great. But why are they called cowards? Because, he ordered that no matter the people or the soldiers, they were not allowed to kill the Huns. Every time I meet Xiongnu, I run to the city desperately. Over time, everyone thought that Li Mu was afraid of war, so he was called a coward.
In fact, Li Mu's practice only preserved the strength of Zhao, and Li Mu knew that the purpose of Xiongnu's going south was to plunder livestock and population. As long as the Huns were not allowed to succeed, they came from afar and could not cope with Zhao. In addition, the Huns are not good at tackling key problems. Therefore, retreat is the best way to deal with the Huns.
From the strategy of dealing with the Huns, we know that Li Mu is a man with a military mind, and he has great foresight. However, just because Wang Zhao retreated to the capital to avoid the war, the border post was looted by Xiongnu in less than a year, and the people in the border areas suffered great pain. So Li Mu came out again, using the original method. At first, the Huns laughed at him, but later they couldn't laugh.
After several years of operation, it's time for Li Mu to deal a heavy blow to the Huns. Li Mu released a large number of cattle, sheep and soldiers out of the city as bait to lure the Huns. The Xiongnu, who has always been cautious, only sent a small group of troops to inquire about the situation. As a result, when they fought against this group of soldiers, they found that Zhao was easily defeated, so the Huns took it lightly and dispatched all their troops to plunder. As a result, I didn't expect Li Mu's army to hide its strength, which taught the Huns a good lesson. After the war, Huns dared not invade Zhao for more than ten years. This is enough to witness Li Mu's foresight, and Li Mu deserves to be a big star.
Nine years of mourning, at this time, Zhao ushered in another strong enemy-Qin. At that time, Qin had invaded Wu Sui of Zhao, killing many soldiers and generals.
The Prince of Zhao only invited Li Mu to come out of the mountain, and Li Mu came out of the mountain as a general, successfully defeating Qin Jun, while Li Mu was named Wu Anjun because of his outstanding military exploits. A few years later, they invaded Zhao again and were repelled by Li Mu. At the same time, it also resisted Wei and Han in the south to save the nation.
Li Mu can be regarded as the first Han general who fought against Xiongnu on a large scale after the rise of Xiongnu. Admittedly, he didn't finally destroy the Huns, but his strategy and tactics towards the Huns were really beautiful. He is not a military master, and he has no theory. Li Mu, born in the army, is all about fighting. Protecting the country and people on this land is his greatest duty and his greatest glory.
