Chapter 691: He Must Fight a Tough Battle with the Opponent!
Being called a good person by Xiaoyu, even if Zhao Lang thinks he has done these things, he is worthy of his ancestors.
This face will still be red when it should be red.
Of course, it's not a big problem, you'll get used to it as it goes red.
"Alang, then I will send these young men to Zhuangzi."
Xiaoyu said at this time.
Zhao Lang replied very naturally,
"Send it over, just send it all over, just to learn a little bit, so that you can integrate faster later."
"You can just leave them to Wangcai."
For these teenagers, Zhao Lang would not refuse anyone who came.
Although some small supplies and so on will be paid now, as long as these people are...well, educated and trained.
The rewards given after that will be a hundred times a thousand times!
After all, these people's Goguryeo status is the best investment attribute.
Hearing this, Xiaoyu nodded happily. Zhuangzi was already very familiar with adopting orphans.
A mature reception plan has long been in place.
This also proves that Zhao Lang truly accepts these people.
"Alang, thank you."
Xiaoyu said again extremely sincerely.
Zhao Lang nodded and asked with a smile,
"Okay, is this why you are hiding here and refusing to go back to Zhuangzi?"
Xiaoyu blushed a little embarrassedly.
Zhao Lang's heart moved slightly and he continued to ask,
"Is there anything else going on now?"
Xiaoyu shook her head and said,
"No, I'll pack my things and go back to Zhuangzi."
Zhao Lang's expression remained unchanged, he nodded and was about to leave, but the slave beside him said,
"Master, it's getting late now, and it's not safe to ride horses at night. We'd better rest here for the night."
Zhao Lang was stunned for a moment. He did have this concern, but with such a short distance, the distance was actually not a big problem.
Just as he was about to say something, he continued,
"Miss Xiaoyu, the master will leave it to you to make arrangements."
After saying that, he very wisely asked the servant to take the young man in the yard away.
Only then did Zhao Lang realize something. He hesitated for a moment, but still did not stop the other party.
Fortunately, he still has some things to solve together today.
Soon, there were only two people left in the yard.
Xiaoyu quickly reacted and said,
"Alang, you go to your room to rest first, and I'll prepare some water."
After saying that, he also left here.
Soon, the servants were all busy, and all preparations were completed. Zhao Lang also soaked comfortably in the hot water bucket, with only Xiaoyu serving him.
In the room, the fog was hazy, and the atmosphere was slightly subtle for a while.
Xiaoyu's face was also slightly red, and she seemed to have made some preparations.
She was actually not that resistant to Zhao Lang.
Growing up in the royal family, she had seen many things, and Zhao Lang was the kindest and best man she had ever seen.
Zhao Lang also looked at each other with confused eyes, as if he was thinking about something. As long as there was a small opportunity between the two, sparks would erupt.
Soon, after washing was almost done, Zhao Lang shouted,
"Xiaoyu."
The tips of Xiaoyu's ears were reddish, and her voice was like a mosquito's fly replying,
"Alang, I'm ready..."
Before she finished speaking, she heard Zhao Lang say,
"Do you blame me for what happened in Goguryeo?"
Zhao Lang actually still had some knots in his heart. Xiaoyu was originally the royal princess of Goguryeo, but he and his people could be said to have directly captured Goguryeo.
The entire Goguryeo royal family is just a puppet in his hands.
Xiaoyu has been helping to take care of Liaodong. Liaodong draws blood from Goguryeo to restore herself. She can see these plans to some extent.
Therefore, the life of these Goguryeo people is not good now.
To be exaggerated, the relationship between him and Xiaoyu can even be described as hatred between the country and the family.
He was a little worried before, but he didn't have the chance to ask.
Now, he had to make this clear.
Sure enough, before he finished speaking, the subtle atmosphere in the entire room completely disappeared.
Xiaoyu's face was also slightly startled.
The room fell into silence for a while. This time, Zhao Lang felt a little uncomfortable, not because he was thin-skinned, but because he was still in the water.
This situation is somewhat inconvenient. After all, the topic is so serious, and it is not appropriate to stand up naked.
I should have known that I would wait until I had cleaned up.
The silence lasted for a while, and Zhao Lang was thinking about whether to get up. Xiaoyu showed a smile at this time, but did not answer Zhao Lang's question directly, but asked,
"Alang, do you know how I grew up?"
Without waiting for Zhao Lang to answer, Xiaoyu continued,
"Everyone thinks that since I grew up in a palace, I must be well-dressed and pampered."
"But I don't know that since I can remember, I have been learning etiquette and doing things."
"When I get older, I start learning dance skills. In fact, life like this is not bad."
"It's much better than ordinary people who have to run around for a living. I should be content, right?"
Zhao Lang clicked his lips slightly. From a certain perspective, this was indeed the case.
In today's world, if you can have enough food and clothing, you are already extremely wealthy.
Xiaoyu showed a wry smile at this time and said,
"I'm not dissatisfied, and I think this is good."
"But one day, I heard the maids in the palace whispering that I was going to be married."
"I wanted to refuse, but then I was slapped by my father. Only then did I realize that I was actually just a tool for marriage."
"So I was sent to Liaodong, and then... I met you."
Speaking of this, Zhao Lang's face turned red.
"After that, I settled down in Zhuangzi, got along with people in Zhuangzi, and did things. Only then did I realize how poor my life was before."
"I also find my meaning in everyone."
Xiaoyu slowly spoke her thoughts.
Zhao Lang listened and roughly understood what was going on.
To put it simply, she is a rich woman who, after experiencing the ups and downs, feels that she has found the meaning of life in her heart.
To put it simply, it’s just two words,
Leisure.
"And of all the places I have ever seen, only in your village have I seen so many smiles from the heart."
"Everyone in Zhuangzi seems to be living in a fairyland. So, I know that you are someone who truly cares about the people."
"Goguryeo is originally a small country. If it must rely on a strong person, I hope it is you."
After Xiaoyu finished speaking, Zhao Lang was silent for a while, and then he said,
"I'm not that good, actually..."
There is a saying that every one of these things he did was based on the interests of Da Qin.
Even if they take in these Goguryeo teenagers, it is a plan to eliminate Goguryeo later.
But before he could finish his words, Xiaoyu stopped him with a finger, and then said with a smile,
"Alang, I believe in you, why don't you let me dance for you."
As she spoke, Xiaoyu gently waved her hand in the bucket, and the mist in the bucket rose again.
In the mist of the room, Xiaoyu danced gracefully, and Zhao Lang also stood up.
So there is a poem saying,
"If you are in a hurry to clean it up, you can only tie the dance clothes. I wave my hands affectionately, and my sleeves are arranged in staggered rows."
besides,
"The nephrite jade in the twisting sheng opens its buds, and the red skirt of the painting building shakes."
...
Early the next morning, Zhao Lang woke up refreshed and had a good sleep yesterday.
But there was still no one around.
He wasn't too surprised, mainly because he was used to it by Ji Wushuang.
When I opened the door, I saw Nu standing at the door with a smile on his face.
"Master, thank you for your hard work. Breakfast is ready."
Zhao Lang glanced at Nu angrily and said,
"Next time if you try to be smart, be careful and you'll hurt yourself in the foot."
"Where's Xiaoyu?"
How could he not see that the slave did it on purpose yesterday?
Although the slave was scolded, he replied with a smile on his face,
"Miss Xiaoyu said that there is still Miss Bai in Zhuangzi, so she won't go back yet, so as not to cause trouble to you. When you are in Liaodong, just come to Zhuangzi to find her."
Zhao Lang blushed and said,
"What's wrong with Miss Bai? I'm not afraid of her!"
"Forget it, I've been busy lately anyway, and I'm going back to Yunzhong soon, so that's it."
After saying that, he left with the people, but his time was still a little tight.
All the way back to Zhuangzi, I happened to meet Ji Wushuang who was leading the training of the teenagers at the door.
"Where were you last night?"
Seeing Zhao Lang, Ji Wushuang asked carelessly.
She lay on Zhao Lang's roof last night, but found that he was not in the room.
Zhao Lang replied without blushing and his heart not beating,
"I went to visit other villages in the evening, but I didn't pay attention to the time. I was worried about the safety of the night march, so I didn't let me come back."
"oh."
Ji Wushuang said oh, then suddenly approached Zhao Lang, sniffed, and said,
"Why do you smell so good?"
Hearing this, the faces of the slaves on the side tightened, but Zhao Lang said extremely calmly,
"Don't you know whether I smell good or not?"
Hearing this, Ji Wushuang blushed and said,
"You stinky man, there are children next to you!"
After saying that, he took the teenagers and left here.
Zhao Lang breathed a sigh of relief, entered Zhuangzi, and then got busy again.
Soon, everything returned to calm.
Two days later, everything had been arranged, and Zhao Lang and his people were ready to set off.
Looking back at Zhuangzi, he grabbed the horse's belly and headed directly towards Yunzhong County.
At this time, on the grassland outside Yunzhong County.
Unlike the black and white before, the white snow now has completely melted.
Tents formed camps and were distributed on the grassland.
In one of the largest camps, Modun was standing on a high slope, looking in the direction of the Great Wall of Qin. After looking at it for a while, he asked King Zuo Xian next to him,
"How was the last casualty consolation?"
King Zuo Xian replied with some heartache,
"Chanyu, although we killed a lot of Qin troops, we didn't grab anything."
"I also lost two great nobles, and I lost a lot of cattle and sheep."
Although they won the battle last time, they didn't get any supplies. It could be said that they lost blood.
Mao Dun waved his hands indifferently and said,
"Don't worry about temporary gains and losses. As long as we grab that place, what else will we need in the future?"
"The various ministries in the royal court are almost ready. As soon as the matters in the spring are arranged, the leaders of each tribe will come with their warriors in accordance with my order."
"At that time, your loss will be doubled to you."
After hearing this, King Zuo Xian looked better.
When Maodun wanted to say something else, a Huns messenger came over hastily and reported,
"Chanyu, there is an urgent message from Donghu!"
Mao Dun raised his eyebrows and said,
"speak!"
Soon, the messenger finished telling the news. After hearing this, Mao Dun frowned slightly but said nothing.
King Zuo Xian on the side said with a strange expression,
"Those barbarians actually went head-to-head with the Qin army? So many people died? Where did the Qin army get so many troops in Liaodong?"
You know, if you want to surround and kill the prairie cavalry, you will need a lot of troops.
When Mao Dun heard this, he slowly said,
"The spies reported once before that the Qin army did make some moves, but I didn't expect that they were actually for this matter."
King Zuo Xian's eyes brightened when he heard this, and he said,
"Chanyu, if the Qin army has so many people to defend against the Hu people, doesn't it mean that their defense line must have insufficient troops in some areas!"
"If we can find them now and concentrate our forces to attack, even if we can't defeat them at once, we can still make them run around without being able to rest!"
Taking advantage of the cavalry's mobility is their most long-term strategy.
Modun shook his head at this time,
"This time the Qin army has recruited a lot of new troops, so this weakness is not big."
"A small-scale intrusion cannot cause too much damage."
King Zuo Xian could only shake his head regretfully.
"Then we have to wait, but we can afford it now anyway."
"I heard the spies say that the farmers in Qin are all old people now. Hahaha, when the Yuezhi and Qiang people come, we will use them to clear the way."
"Finally, let's take over the boundary."
Shanyu nodded. No matter what, if he wanted to truly occupy that prosperous world, he couldn't be the same as before. He had to fight a tough battle with the opponent!
But before that, he still had one thing to figure out.
After pushing away King Zuo Xian, Mao Duncai asked the messenger in a cold voice,
"You just said that our people mentioned the Celestial Cult in their report?"
Of course he also had some spies, but his position was not high enough to reach the top.
The messenger nodded,
"Our people said that the Tianshen Sect was also involved in this battle. It seems that there is also a conflict between the Tianshen Sect and the leader of the Hu people. "
After listening to this, Modun waved his hand for the messenger to retreat, and then said to the guard next to him,
"Check the Celestial Sect in each camp and see their movements."
"Get ready again. I'm going to visit the tribes of the three princes tomorrow."
He also got some news that Ji Porridge and the others seemed to be very close to the Tianshen Sect.
The guard's expression changed slightly, but he quickly responded,
"Yes! Chanyu!"
Modun nodded and turned to leave.
After the sky darkened, fast horses took advantage of the darkness and headed towards Li Yilian's tribe.
