Chapter 680: What We Need Is to Let Him Know Our Weaknesses
"Barbarians?"
Zhao Lang was stunned for a moment.
The Gosei and Tianshen tribes control Donghu, how could they invade? There were also casualties.
"Give me the letter!"
Zhao Lang took the letter directly from the slave's hand. After reading it, his eyes became a little colder.
The matter was not complicated at all. A small force of barbarians broke in, looted supplies, and had a fight with the patrolling Qin border troops, causing casualties on both sides.
"Master, it seems like, damn, their control over the barbarians is not that good."
Nu said with a bit of worry at this time.
Zhao Lang also nodded, but the time was still too short.
Of course, he did not doubt Gou Die's loyal ministers. To put it bluntly, in addition to Gou Die, the Tianshen Tribe also had a lot of young soldiers.
Not to mention, there are also those black ice guards like Xi.
Therefore, it can only be the little leader below who acted without permission.
The relationship between the two parties has not yet been made public, and among the entire Hu people, only the Tianshen tribe is vaguely aware of the relationship.
After all, they had sent troops to attack Goguryeo with Zhao Lang's people last time.
"Master, why don't you send a letter to go to death and ask them to control these barbarians properly?"
The slave hesitated for a moment, then suggested.
Zhao Lang pondered for a while, then shook his head and said,
“Discipline doesn’t do much.”
There was originally a relatively loose model among the Hu tribes.
Not to mention that he had just taken the position not long ago and his strength was average.
Even the original King Donghu could not control his subordinates very strictly.
Everyone is the leader of the tribe. I generally listen to you and don’t expect too much.
Of course, one can also see how powerful Mao Dun is. Now the entire Xiongnu tribe is under his control.
A trace of worry appeared on the slave's face and he said,
"Then what should we do? If the conflict between the two parties is too big, it may affect future events."
He had been following Zhao Lang, so he naturally knew Zhao Lang's plan.
Zhao Lang walked back and forth for a while, then suddenly his heart moved and he said,
"Well, it's not a bad thing if the conflict is too big. Let the messengers of the gods send messages to Gosei, let them sort out the internal situation and know who is loyal to them."
"Separate the others, just find an opportunity to solve them."
After being stunned for a moment, the slave immediately took the order and left.
Zhao Lang did not stop, but walked directly towards Meng Tian's tent. His plan still needed Meng Tian's support.
Not long after, Meng Tian frowned slightly and looked at Zhao Lang in the Chinese military camp.
"Your Highness, are you saying that there is something wrong with the Hu people?"
He still remembered that Zhao Lang had said before that the Hu people were his people.
Now something went wrong directly.
Zhao Lang nodded and explained the situation clearly without any concealment. After hearing this, Meng Tian felt slightly relieved and replied,
"These barbarians are originally wild and untamed. Even among their tribes, they attack each other."
It is still very difficult for barbarians to obey orders and prohibitions.
Zhao Lang replied firmly,
"But this is a hidden danger after all. I want to clean up the Hu people, and I also asked General Meng to dispatch the border troops closest to Liaodong. I will go there personally, and then we should cooperate with outsiders to get rid of these disobedient Hu people."
He just took the opportunity to see if the plan in his mind would work.
"Your Highness, will you go there in person?"
Meng Tian didn't even think about it, just shook his head and said,
"No, absolutely not!"
How could he let Zhao Lang out at this time?
What if something goes wrong?
Zhao Lang smiled bitterly, and then said very sincerely,
"General Meng, I also want to try a plan this time. If it succeeds, I am sure to hit the Huns hard in one go!"
"I know you are worried about my safety. I assure you that this time I will not even go to the battlefield, but will only command from the rear!"
"If that doesn't work, you can send a cavalry guard to follow me."
"General Meng, this time is really important!"
Seeing the sincere look on Zhao Lang's face, Meng Tian hesitated for a moment, but still wanted to refuse. It was better for him to play it safe now.
Just when he was about to speak, Zhao Lang said in advance,
"General Meng, my safety is absolutely guaranteed. If the plan succeeds, many people and soldiers in Da Qin will die less!"
"So I must carry out this plan!"
Hearing this, Meng Tian sighed slightly in his heart,
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cares about the people and is a blessing to our great Qin. I will mobilize the nearest border troops to support Liaodong."
"It's just that this action needs to be concealed to avoid being spied on by the Huns."
The Huns also have spies on the border, and they are not stupid.
Zhao Lang showed a smile at this time and said,
"This news doesn't need to be too secretive."
"It's good to let them know, it's even better to let them know how many people we have transferred here."
Meng Tian was stunned for a moment and replied,
"It's just that if there are any changes in the future, Mao Dun will probably concentrate his forces to attack our weak points."
Zhao Lang looked at the map in the camp, nodded inexplicably, pointed directly at the Great Wall pass closest to Baishan Mountain, and said,
"What we want is to let him know our weakness, General Meng. When we replenish our troops later, please don't add too much in this area."
Hearing Zhao Lang's words, Meng Tian was a little confused. Will he take the initiative to expose his weaknesses to the enemy?
This is a real weakness!
If Zhao Lang hadn't been the prince, he would have thought that the other party was a traitor!
Seeing Meng Tian's hesitation, Zhao Lang smiled and replied,
"General Meng, the army is on the side now. Even if they know the weakness, they don't dare to attack directly."
"When I deal with the rebellious Hu people in Liaodong, you will know my method."
Meng Tian smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said,
"That's all, just listen to His Highness the Crown Prince."
"I will give you the order to mobilize the troops right now."
This time the troops will not be mobilized from Yunzhong County to Liaodong County, otherwise the long journey will cost a lot of materials and time.
Sergeants will be mobilized from the place closest to Liaodong County, and then replenished in turn.
Zhao Lang only needs to take the cavalry regiment all the way there, and it is estimated that it will only take four or five days.
Zhao Lang was about to leave immediately, but was stopped by Meng Tian.
"Your Highness, there will be a reward ceremony in two days. If you are not here, would you like to meet some of the warriors in this war first?"
"In addition to Liu Bang and the others, there is also a man named Datou in the slave army, who performed extremely bravely."
"Big head?"
Zhao Lang raised his eyebrows. He remembered the other party, the soldier who was rescued in the Xianyang military camp.
No way, the name Datou is still easy to remember.
However, he quickly shook his head and said,
"Don't be too rude when meeting these warriors. Wait until I come back to see them again."
"It won't take long, it should be about a month."
After saying that, Zhao Lang walked outside.
Not long after, a group of hundreds of cavalry headed in the direction of Liaodong.
