Li Mu

Li Mu (died 229 BC) was a military general of the Zhao state during the Warring States period of Chinese history. He was named by Chinese historians as one of the four greatest generals of the Warring States period, along with Bai Qi, Wang Jian and Lian Po.

Career

Li Mu assumed command of Zhao's overall security situation after the death of Zhao She and the exile of Lian Po, both renowned former generals of Zhao. He began his career on the northern frontier fighting the Xiongnu. He adopted an extremely defensive strategy, was accused of cowardice and replaced by a more aggressive general who was defeated every time he attacked the Xiongnu. Li Mu was recalled and given a much larger army. He concealed his troops and played the coward. When a large force crossed the border, Li Mu surrounded it and smashed it. He then went on to defeat the Tan Lan, Lin Hu and Donghu. It was said that the Xiongnu did not dare approach the border for the next twenty years.

Later, as the threat from Qin increased with the ascension of Qin Shi Huang, he turned his focus more to the western parts of Zhao. The State of Zhao was merely a shadow of its former self. After suffering utter defeat from Qin during the Battle of Changping, in which Zhao had lost virtually its entire army, most of core Zhao territories had fallen to Qin. Furthermore, Zhao was diplomatically isolated as the Kingdoms of Wei, Yan and Han were too weak to offer any kind of support, while Qi and Chu were more willing to see the kingdom extinguished than face the powerful Qin.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    Full Frontal Fridays

    by: Lamya

    I sleep and dream that life is
    All beauty
    I wake and find that life is
    All just duty
    But in the days before the dilution
    Music Pollution
    Oh we positively sparkled on TV
    Yeah from Full Frontal Fridays
    To Flashback Ruby Tuesdays
    Same old picture in a brand new frame
    But the song remains the same
    The first time was better
    Playing by new rules
    Age-old-game - double the pressure
    Half the pleasure
    City full of windows and design
    Towering towers of lies
    To climb and climb and climb
    Dreams of the view
    View from the top
    Pushing for the pressure to drop
    Don't want to end where the mistery stops
    I wanne be where the
    Sun never sets on a city
    That never skips a beat
    Sun always shines
    On a set that never sleeps
    Sound bites
    Set betting our hedges
    Trapped in the meshes
    Stuck in the marshes
    And only time, time, time marches on
    From Full Frontal Fridays
    To Flashback Ruby Tuesdays
    Same old picture in a brand new frame
    But the song remains the same
    The first time was better
    Playing by new rules
    Age-old-game - double the pressure
    Half the pleasure
    From Full Frontal Fridays
    To Flashback Ruby Tuesdays
    Glossing over where you placed the blame
    (I hear) remember my name
    You'll be screaming it later
    Scream my name
    You'll remember it better when it hits
    In the shiny glow
    Of 90210
    Before Jerry Springer
    The thongs, thongs
    And the video-ho
    Back before we were
    Tangled in drama
    Douching for dollars
    Bimbo to scholar
    Oh we positively sparkled on TV
    From Full Frontal Fridays
    To Flashback Ruby Tuesdays
    Lazy Sunday Bloody Mary Sundays
    Switch on make-believe
    Mondays always look better
    Gleaming in my reverie
    So much better sparkling on TV
    Sun never sets on a city
    That never skips a beat
    Sun always shines
    On a set that never sleeps
    Sound bites
    Set betting our hedges
    Trapped in the meshes
    Stuck in the marshes
