Chapter 21: Prepare to Be Independent
Listening to the shouts outside, Qin Zheng knew that the news brought back by Zhao Lang was true without asking any more questions, and couldn't help but say,
"These people are really capable of doing things to themselves."
After sighing, he frowned and continued,
"Now it's difficult to handle."
"If he sends us out as planned, we can't say no."
Even though he already knew that the other party was a traitor, there was no substantial evidence.
Now the other party will gain more trust, and then send them to death according to the plan.
If you forcefully reveal the other party's plan without providing any evidence, you will only be beaten down by the other party, which will arouse the other party's vigilance.
For the time being, there was no good solution.
Zhao Lang on the side also nodded. Of course he understood what the other party meant, but in his opinion, there was no chance of turning this matter around, so he said,
"It doesn't matter. You can delay it for a while. If you really can't delay it, just agree to their plan first. We'll just make changes along the way."
According to the information he received, Wang San would not go with him.
There are many opportunities when you are on the road.
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng showed a wry smile and said,
"I'm not the one who can make decisions now. I'm afraid it will be difficult to turn the situation around by then."
Because the time is too short, all the children of their current aristocratic families have not chosen a common leader, and no one can convince anyone.
When it comes to taking action, even if he tells these things, it may be difficult to win people's trust.
And with the character that Wang San has shown now, he will definitely arrange for people to watch them. When the time comes, they will have no choice but to be led by the nose.
Even if he prepared himself to escape, it would be of no avail.
In the final analysis, their foundation is too shallow and they have no additional resources to utilize, so they cannot make any changes.
Thinking of this, Qin Zheng suddenly felt something in his heart and said to Zhao Lang,
"Alang, do you think General Zuo can be trusted?"
"When I look at him these days, he is still a real soldier, but he can't help himself."
"If we can get the support of the other party, there may be a chance to change this matter."
Hearing Qin Zheng's words, Zhao Lang frowned slightly, but quickly shook his head.
"Tian San's arrangement this time is extremely clever, with almost no flaws. We don't have much contact with General Zuo. It's too risky to put our hopes on others."
"In case they are together, everyone you brought here may die here."
Although Zhao Lang didn't have a good impression of Daqian, these Qin family disciples were more or less one of his own.
And it's not his style to put all his hopes on others.
After thinking for a while, he quickly said,
"However, we can take the opportunity to make some demands to them."
Zhao Lang quickly stated his plan. Qin Zheng's eyes lit up slightly after hearing this.
"That's not a bad idea."
He wanted to ask more details, but the voice of the messenger came from outside,
"General Zuo summoned! All officials above centurion must gather in the camp!"
Qin Zheng stood up immediately and said,
"Then I'll go over and check the situation first."
After all, they were summoned at this time for this matter.
After saying that, he walked towards the camp.
Not long ago, in the camp, General Zuo looked solemnly at the messenger in front of him.
"After they came back, they went directly back to their camp?"
He had just received the news and originally wanted to check it out in person.
, but the people below reported that, after Wang San and others came back,
, and went directly to his camp.
, the messenger nodded and returned,
"My subordinates have specifically asked the military doctors. Their injuries are still serious and they are being treated. They cannot see people yet. After they recover a little, they will come and report back to you."
"But Wang Jianjun did give us some information."
"It is said that they found a place where the Ghost Beast tribe gathers. It is most likely the opponent's outpost. There are not many people there, and it is extremely close to our army's battle line."
"And this time the other party suddenly crosses the border to raid them. I'm afraid there will be big moves later, and we need to prepare in advance."
"Wang Jianjun said that it is best to send someone to check, so as not to be caught off guard."
The messenger quickly conveyed the news.
After hearing this, General Zuo didn't say much. After asking the messenger to retreat, he frowned and murmured to himself,
"Something feels wrong."
When the other party encountered an attack, he did not doubt that the Ghost Beast Clan had crossed the border and raided the team transporting supplies, not once or twice.
But he had some doubts that the other party could come back with people and killed him, so he wanted to see for himself.
Unexpectedly, the other party returned directly to the camp. However, the military doctor said that the other party's wounds were indeed extremely serious.
These people can't risk their lives.
General Zuo couldn't help but shook his head. That Wang San was just a supervisor, and he shouldn't have such courage.
Anyway, in his impression, these articles always tend to use conspiracy.
But it's not difficult to check whether what the other party said is true or not. Just send someone to check the location where the other party said it.
It's just that for this matter, Daqian's border troops cannot be used yet.
One is because Daqian's own military strength is really poor. Letting these people go is not much different from sending them to death.
The second thing is that they can't openly conflict with the Ghost Beast Clan yet.
If the Ghost Beast Clan gets a handle on it and takes the opportunity to start a war, he will be the sinner of Da Gan.
Fortunately, he still has such a manpower at his disposal. The children of those aristocratic families are not weak in strength, and to some extent they do not belong to the system of serving the frontier army.
It was most appropriate to let these people go. Having made up his mind, General Zuo quickly gave the order.
"Let all officers in the army who are centurions and above gather in the camp!"
Of course, he would not just arrange this one thing. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could clear out the hidden piles left by the Ghost Beast Clan when they crossed the border, etc., and also provide cover for the children of those aristocratic families.
Soon, the messenger left here.
Not long after, everyone gathered outside his camp. General Zuo walked up to everyone and said seriously,
"Nowadays, the Ghost Beast Clan is rampant and occupying our borders. I, the general, order to clear out all the Ghost Beast Clan's hidden stakes within the borders of the country! Promote the prestige of our country!"
General Zuo's words were extremely passionate, but after he finished speaking, all of his men had complicated expressions.
No one wants to take the initiative to fight the ghost beast tribe, but the other party's orders cannot be changed.
All of them could only accept the order feebly, but they had already made up their minds and no one would fight for it.
Isn't it good for everyone?
Seeing this scene, even Zhao Lang, who was hiding in Qin Zheng's pocket, couldn't help but said to Qin Zheng,
"After settling this matter, let's find an opportunity to go back."
He couldn't see any energy in some of the officers and soldiers who were working as officers. This war was definitely lost!
It’s better to go back early and prepare to be independent!
