Chapter 673: Some Things Are More Important than Life

The silence in the camp did not last long. Soon, there was a sound,

Bang bang bang!

The nearest Da Qin generals sat directly on the ground this time!

No one helped them this time, mainly because the others themselves were confused.

Because they knew very well the meaning of Zhao Lang's words.

You know, this time the total strength of the Huns was more than 300,000, and there were also many barbarians.

Even though the Hu people were attacked directly by Mao Dun and almost wiped out the royal court, and their strength was greatly damaged, they still had fifty or sixty thousand cavalry.

This is already an extremely huge force!

And now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince says that these people are all from his family?

Just think about it, when the two sides are fighting, 50,000 Hu cavalry directly attack the Huns. What kind of scene would it be like?

It must be a great victory!

How could they not be excited?

Even Meng Tian took a deep breath at this time and then said,

"Your Highness, are you serious about this?!"

He actually believed it, but he couldn't help but ask again.

Zhao Lang smiled and said,

"Of course it's absolutely true. My father also knows about this."

He told his father about what happened on the grassland.

After hearing this, Meng Tian no longer had any doubts, nodded and said,

"Okay! In this way, our army will win!"

"It's only natural to send a large army to attack the Qiang and Yuezhi!"

"Hmph, Da Qin just hasn't hit them for several years, but they have forgotten the pain."

"Then, as His Highness the Prince said, send two fierce generals to raid the Qiang and Yuezhi's retreat!"

"It's just this choice..."

Meng Tian paused for a moment. The general responsible for the raid must be highly skilled in martial arts and understand military affairs. After all, he went deep alone without any reinforcements.

Zhao Lang quickly said,

"Lu can do either way."

Lu's martial arts skills are extremely good, and he also knows the art of war, so he is indeed a good choice.

Meng Tian also nodded,

"Who else is suitable to go along the way?"

Many generals asked for battle one by one at this time, but Meng Tian shook his head.

There are still many people in the Great Qin army who know military skills, but when it comes to personal martial arts, there are not many strong generals.

This can be considered a small regret.

Meng Tian said quickly.

"Well, when the time comes, the army can hold a martial arts competition and select some soldiers with high martial arts skills and pair them with a general."

"That's all, it's still early now. Let's make early preparations to find out where the Qiang and Yuezhi's lairs are. We will decide on the generals along the way at that time."

If it didn't work, he ordered to summon Zhang Han, who was also one of the more outstanding generals in Da Qin.

Zhao Lang also nodded. At this time, Ji Wushuang's expression moved slightly, but he still did not make a sound.

The deputy general on the side just reminded him in a low voice,

"General, the spies have been sent out a long time ago."

"You have forgotten that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to inform you before that he wanted to explore the lairs of both parties."

"When the snow melts, it's time for the spies to come back."

Hearing this, Meng Tian was startled for a moment. He remembered that there was indeed such an order, but he didn't pay much attention to it at first and just gave it casually.

Thinking about it now, it turns out that Zhao Lang had already planned to raid these two parties!

The other generals looked at Zhao Lang with increasingly complicated looks.

However, everyone felt more relieved, which showed that Zhao Lang did not just do it temporarily.

Meng Tian quickly calmed down and said,

"All ministries should hurry up and prepare. The basic defense must not be left behind. We must dig more pits."

"No one is allowed to leak what happened today!"

"Your Highness, please stay."

Immediately, the other generals bowed and resigned.

After everyone left, Meng Tian came to Zhao Lang's side with some joy and said,

"Your Highness, with the help of the Hu people, our army already has a 50% chance of winning this war against the Xiongnu!"

"Fifty percent? Why only 50%?"

Zhao Lang was slightly startled. He didn't expect that when he told Meng Tian about the Hu people, the other party was only 60% sure.

If there were no Hu people, would Meng Tian think that Great Qin would be defeated?

Didn't you just say that our army will win?

Emotions boost morale.

Seeing Zhao Lang's look, Meng Tian naturally understood what the other person was thinking, so he smiled bitterly and said,

"Your Highness, look at the map."

At this time, Meng Tian crossed the entire northern border of Daqinzhen with his hand, starting from Goguryeo in the east and reaching the Qiang tribe in the west, exceeding the border of Daqin for thousands of miles.

"Your Highness, you are right. Even if our army has millions of troops, it will be difficult to defend this long border."

"Even if we can repel the Huns, the damage to the counties in the north cannot be avoided. What is this but failure?"

Hearing this, Zhao Lang understood immediately.

Sure enough, how could Meng Tian not think of what he wanted to do? To the other party, damage to Da Qin's territory would naturally mean failure.

There's just no way to avoid it, so I can only resist.

Now, with the power of the Hu people, he has confidence!

"Your Highness, with the Hu people as internal agents this time, our army will have a chance to win!"

Meng Tian said with a smile at this time.

Zhao Lang nodded slightly, hesitated, and then said,

"General Meng, I want Han Xin to take over this battle at the Great Wall, and you will be responsible for the defense."

Now that he had spoken, Zhao Lang no longer hesitated and told Meng Tian his plan.

"Let Han Xin lead 150,000 new troops and 150,000 frontier troops to fight the Huns?"

Meng Tian was startled for a moment, he knew about Han Xin.

As a general of the Qin Dynasty, he naturally knew all the generals in the imperial court.

What's more, Meng Yi also mentioned the other party in a letter.

He is a good general.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Lang would hand over such an important task to a newly rising general.

He suddenly frowned and said,

"Your Highness, it's not that the old minister is greedy for power, but this matter is of great importance. I'm afraid..."

Zhao Lang said with a smile at this time,

"General Meng, of course I believe in you. Da Qin needs a new general. Moreover, Han Xin will arrive in a few days. You can take a look at it then."

Seeing Zhao Lang's resolute attitude, Meng Tian had no choice but to agree.

As long as Zhao Lang doesn't have his own way.

After discussing for a while, Zhao Lang led the people out of the camp. After taking only two steps, Ji Wushuang said to the side,

"Alang, I want to discuss something with you..."

Before Ji Wushuang finished speaking, Zhao Lang replied,

"no!"

Ji Wushuang was stunned for a moment and said,

"I haven't said anything yet."

Zhao Lang said without looking back,

"Aren't you the team that wants to raid?"

"It doesn't matter if you are good at martial arts when marching or fighting. On the grassland, if you are not familiar with the environment, a mouthful of sewage can kill you!"

"When you come here, protect me honestly!"

Seeing Zhao Lang's resolute attitude, Ji Wushuang could only curl her lips secretly, thinking in her heart,

When the team sets off, follow them.

Just when she had this idea, Zhao Lang's voice rang out,

"If you dare to escape this time, I won't help you take revenge!"

Ji Wushuang was furious, blocked in front of Zhao Lang, stared at her beautiful peach blossom eyes and said,

"What did you say?!"

Zhao Lang said bravely,

"If you have something wrong with you, how can you take revenge?"

Hearing these words, Ji Wushuang hesitated for a moment, and then said with a bit of ferocity,

"I will seek revenge on you now! Go! Come in with me!"

After saying that, he grabbed Zhao Lang and walked into the house.

The slaves on the side were all dumbfounded. Why did the two of them talk about revenge while they were talking?

He was about to sacrifice his life to save him, but soon discovered something was wrong. Why did his master look a little excited when he heard about revenge?

Just as Ji Wushuang was about to pull Zhao Lang away, there was a shout from beside him,

"Brother Lang! Brother Lang! I'm back!"

Hearing the shout, Ji Wushuang immediately let go of Zhao Lang.

Zhao Lang turned his head angrily and saw Hu Hai running towards him happily.

After directly defeating Fusu and Gao last time, Zhao Lang sent them back directly.

After all, he still had to keep it a secret from the Huns. Leaving these two people here would only do bad things.

Anyway, the benevolent scholars here are still led by Chun Yuyue.

Zhao Lang directly asked this person to run a school. These benevolent Confucian students are still very good as enlightenment teachers.

Hu Hai walked all the way to Zhao Lang and said excitedly,

"Brother Lang, I have sent Fusu and Gao out of Yunzhong County!"

"But when I came back, I met Mi'er and the others! She has been pestering me these past few days, what should I do!"

But he didn't notice that Zhao Lang's expression was getting worse and worse.

Zhao Lang was about to kick the opponent when he heard Hu Hai say,

"Brother Lang, tell me quickly, Mi'er and Ying Yinman are right behind!"

Only then did Zhao Lang realize that Hu Hai was followed by two people. It was not easy to start, so he could only grit his teeth and say,

"It's okay, just keep it up for a few days."

Hu Hai nodded excitedly.

Ying Yinman and Zhao Mier quickly arrived in front of a few people. Ying Yinman looked at Zhao Lang with some complicated emotions.

She understood that Qin Shihuang asked her to follow him just to prevent Zhao Lang from killing Fusu and Gao, but she didn't expect that she hadn't reached the border yet.

Zhao Lang had already dealt with Fusu and Gao, and sent them directly back to Xianyang.

Her mission has been completed, but she doesn't want to go back now.

It's not bad to stay here and help each other.

After this time, some of the remaining thoughts in her heart will be completely abandoned.

Soon, after the two parties greeted each other, Zhao Lang hurriedly sent away a few people. He still wanted to help Ji Wushuang take revenge.

But when he looked back, he saw that Ji Wushuang had left by himself, and Zhao Lang quickly followed him.

"Hey, didn't you just say you wanted revenge? Don't let me go!"

Seeing his master hurrying to let others take revenge, the slave beside him fell into deep thought for a while.

When did his master change?

It was not until many cavalrymen passed by that the slaves came to their senses and hurriedly walked towards the camp. He also had some orders and sent them to die.

Not long after, a fast horse also headed towards the Liaodong grassland.

A few days later.

In the Royal Court of the Heavenly God Tribe, the weather has gradually warmed up, and grassland has been exposed in some places where the snow is thin.

There were more cavalry on the grassland. At this time, a fast horse galloped into the Huren King's Court.

"Damn it, brother, Maodun sent a message, asking us to prepare our manpower. As soon as the snow melts, we will go south to threaten Da Qin's Liaodong and Liaoxi front lines."

"Let us all come out in full force, otherwise, they will attack us first!"

Erhei frowned at this time and said to go to death.

Gossip frowned upon hearing this,

"As expected, Mao Dun is still on guard against us."

"However, his plan is quite vicious. I'm afraid he himself will not directly launch a large-scale attack in the beginning of spring."

"But they asked us to send troops to threaten Da Qin because they don't want us to have an easy time next winter."

Spring is the time for all grassland tribes to recover. After a winter, both people and livestock are in urgent need of replenishment and recovery.

After hearing this, Erhei couldn't help but frown and said,

"Then what should we do? Should we reject the Huns?"

The current situation of the Hu people is not particularly good, otherwise they would not choose to pretend to surrender to the Huns.

Go to hell and replied,

"No, we will follow the Xiongnu's request. As soon as the snow melts, we will send out troops."

"But we need to tell the people below more. Only by making them angry can we attack the Huns."

Erhei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he replied,

"Hey, go to hell, brother, you are becoming more and more like the head of the family."

Go to hell and replied angrily, ‘’

"Go away, I am the head of the family, and I have already avenged Dou Dou'er."

"By the way, how about asking you to investigate the Hun Royal Court?"

Erhei replied,

"It can't be that fast. The Xiongnu's defenses are very high now."

"You don't have to worry about this. When the news comes out, I will tell Xi that he will be responsible for leading the raid anyway."

"Speaking of which, the head of the family still feels sorry for us. Hehe, this raid mission is extremely dangerous and we are not allowed to go."

Go to hell and gave Erhei a roll of his eyes.

"Don't talk nonsense. The risk of a surprise attack is high, but the reward is also great."

Erhei curled his lips indifferently,

"The head of the family has long said that life is the most important thing. Why do you need all the credit? I still want to accompany my boy."

"Hehe, I have asked Da Mao to tell the owner of the family that when the boy grows up, he will be sent to a school in Xianyang."

Gosei sighed at this time, and just as he was about to say something, a messenger hurried in and said,

"Leader! Letter from Liaodong!"

Go to death and quickly walked over and took the letter.

Erhei also quickly came over.

When he opened the letter, he found that there was a separate letter inside, which was addressed to Erhei.

He threw the separate letter to Erhei, opened it, and his face became serious as he read it. After reading it, he said,

"The head of the family said that the Xiongnu's movements are becoming more and more frequent, and he wants us to prepare earlier. You..."

Before he finished saying "go to hell", he heard Erhei say in a firm tone,

"Damn it, brother, I want to go with Xi to raid the Xiongnu's lair."

Goshit was stunned when he heard this and said,

"What?"

Erhei replied,

"I need credit!"

Gosei frowned and said,

"Didn't you just say that life is the most important thing? Why do you want those credits?"

Erhei gritted his teeth and replied,

"Damn it, brother, some things are more important than life."

He didn't want his children to live in a borderland.
