When he saw Zhao Lang coming with his cavalry, the big dog flared up.
Although he didn’t know how many cavalry the family lord had brought back, in the Great Qin cavalry was a great killing weapon!
Even if it was just a few hundred cavalry, if they attacked from the flank, there would be no problem in routing thousands of infantry!
As long as they pestered the other side, they would be able to create an opportunity for the Family Head!
He was about to shout for a counter-attack, but was pulled back by Chen Ping, who was at his side
“Tell everyone to retreat!”
Big Dog was a little discontented, now that the family head had returned, this Chen Ping could not command him yet.
But Chen Ping quickly said that
“The Lord’s house is not in good shape! Hurry up and tell the men to pull back down!”
The big dog’s heart startled at hearing this, and when he looked more closely at the condition of the master of the house in the distance, he realised that everyone’s horses were not going very fast.
At once, he ordered that
“Sound off!”
All in turn retreated slowly, without a fighting chance, and the cavalry at one side stopped at a distance.
Cavalry is naturally not used for frontal and local charges.
Rather, they were to impact the flanks and the back.
The cavalry only slowly disappeared when the large force was completely removed from the battlefield.
Chen Ping, who stayed behind, looked at the battlefield not far away with some heartache, those crossbows were all gone, the enemy would not let them go.
When he reached a high ground, Chen Ping ordered in a loud voice that
“Set up camp, take care of the wounded, prepare hot water, food and welcome the master!”
The whole camp was suddenly busy.
After Big Cat and Big Dog had given the orders down, they rode off and prepared to go to Zhao Lang.
Just then, a sound of horse hooves came and Zhao Lang was already on his horse, leading the men to the entrance of the camp.
“House Master!”
Big Cat and Big Dog hastily surrounded him!
Zhao Lang stroked the two’s heads separately as a gesture of comfort and closeness.
But his eyes looked at Chen Ping and asked.
“How are the casualties?”
Chen Ping saluted and then hastily returned that
“The exact ones haven’t been reported yet, but they should be within a thousand, mostly lightly wounded.”
Having killed almost 10,000 of the other side, there was always a price to pay.
And the casualties came mainly from the peasants that
Although these peasants were better equipped, trained and physically fit than this group of rebel soldiers.
After all, it was their first time on a real battlefield, and it was inevitable that they would slip up.
Only then did Zhao Lang nod, and then said that
“Take care of the people who are coming with me, food, hot water.”
“And get the camp ready, there will be others coming in the next few days.”
Chen Ping said, as he glanced at the exhausted cavalry behind Zhao Lang.
“It has been ordered down, just what is wrong with you, master?”
Zhao Lang let out a bitter smile and said that
“Let’s go in and talk about it in detail.”
Only then did Chen Ping react and said in a hurry that
“Yes, yes, yes, go into the camp first.”
Only after the tent had been propped up did Zhao Lang have time to talk over his experiences over the past few days.
They had been floating on the sea for two days before they reached Liaodong, which was of course still much faster than walking on land.
It was just that not many people had arrived because of the shipping capacity.
Luckily, by this time Little Six and the others had already come through with a message, and several hundred of them rode back to Liaodong first, day and night.
The others were following the cattle carts and were on their way.
The advantage of advanced communication was that Zhao Lang knew all the information as soon as he stepped off the boat.
Once the two sides had reunited, they came towards this way with all their might.
At last, they arrived, but they were all at the end of their tether.
It was just a moment of fear for Big Dog on the sidelines as he listened, but fortunately Chen Ping had stopped him and they did not counter-attack.
Otherwise, Zhao Lang and the others would not have been able to make much of a difference in their current situation.
A forced surprise attack would only result in heavy casualties.
After a short rest, Zhao Lang got up and prepared to go and check on the wounded.
Chen Ping said in a hurry that
“Master, you are also tired, you’d better take a good rest.”
Zhao Lang shook his head and said that
“I can still hold out.”
He certainly wasn’t simply looking at the wounded, which could also boost morale.
Now he had arrived, but the battle that was to follow would not be too easy.
He needs these men of his own, to recover as quickly as possible, and to keep up their fighting spirit.
Chen Ping, of course, could not argue with Zhao Lang, so he could only ask Big Cat and Big Dog to follow him properly.
He himself went to make other arrangements.
Soon, there was a burst of excitement inside the camp.
“The family head has returned!”
“Chief, give a hand, this bandage you wrap.”
“Hahahaha, the Confucian head’s initiated disciple actually has such an identity.”
“The disciples of the Mo family have met Sir.”
“Chief! I have not disgraced our peasants.”
Wherever Zhao Lang walked past, cheers rang out.
The entire atmosphere of the camp became full of life from the original heavy and solemn.
Even Chen Ping could not help but reveal a smile, this master of his house was very popular.
By the time Zhao Lang had finished checking out the places, it was already dark.
“The injured must be resuscitated with all their might, don’t care about the loss of those medicines.”
Zhao Lang blandly instructed.
The big dog on the side grinned back with a big grin and
“Family head, don’t worry, our people are all golden.”
Zhao Lang nodded, still asking.
“How many have died?”
The big cat hesitated and said that
“Ninety-three reported up now.”
Zhao Lang’s expression did not change, he simply said that
“The wives and children of their families are supported by the farm, there must not be the slightest deficiency, and anyone who dares to oppress them will be dealt with severely!”
Big Cat and Big Dog immediately said back.
“Yes, Master of the House!”
Zhao Lang sighed secretly.
These people were working for himself, so he naturally had to take up their original responsibilities.
It was just that his understanding of mercy does not rule the army had deepened one more layer.
It was not mere severity, but he had to harden his heart in the face of these deaths.
For surely there would be more casualties afterwards.
But the battle that needs to be fought, must still be fought, otherwise the consequences will be even worse!
Forcing his compassion to be suppressed, Zhao Lang pretended to ask, casually
“Why haven’t you seen Miss Bai?”
Big Dog replied back.
“Miss White said she had gone to inspect the surrounding area, so I’m sending someone to find her.”
Zhao Lang’s expression changed slightly, knowing that the other party was avoiding him, and said that
“No need, everyone is busy these days, I’ll just go and find her myself when the time comes.”
“Right, these peasants are also our own people, each should be treated the same.”
He is the head of the farming family, he can’t be too generous to one another.
The two men naturally responded in kind.
Back in the tent, Zhao Lang sighed slightly, now that the other party did not want to see him, he would not force him.
When the battle was over, he would settle this muddled account again.
But his heart was still annoyed, damn it, he didn’t know that his old man was Qin Shi Huang in the first place!
The slave on the side didn’t say anything, but just thoughtfully poured a cup of warm water.
Zhao Lang just happened to reach out and finished the water before he felt a little more comfortable.
Not long after, Chen Ping walked in and told Zhao Lang all about the current state of the camp.
And then reported on the current situation in Liaodong.
“Most of Liaodong has now fallen into our hands.”
“The magistrate of the county is also our guest of honour.”
Zhao Lang revealed a smile and had to say that Chen Ping was indeed a top talent in internal affairs.
Liaodong was developing nicely.
It’s the county thing that’s a bit f*cked up, he doesn’t need to corrupt the other side at all!
Now well, he has created a corrupt official by himself, where the hell can he justify this?
After thinking about it, he said.
“Hard work, first finish the battle in front of you, there are some things, I will talk to you afterwards.”
Chen Ping nodded, and just then the big dog came in after the briefing and said.
“Clan Master, there is an old man in the camp who claims to be from the Zongheng Clan asking for an audience.”
Hearing this, Zhao Lang stood up straight away and
“The Zongheng family! The old man?”
The old man he knew from the Zongheng Clan was the only one, but shouldn’t that fellow be dead?
And even if he wasn’t, how dare this b*****d come to him?
Zhao Lang said with a slightly shaken expression.
“Bring it in!”
The big dog turned around and went out, and it didn’t take long to bring in an old man with a somewhat ashamed face.
But he found that Zhao Lang, who was sitting on the main seat, was nowhere to be seen, and was just about to ask a slave aside, when he found a gust of wind sounding next to him.
He turned his head and saw that Zhao Lang had hidden in the doorway of the tent at some point.
Straight away, he grabbed the old man of the Zongheng Clan who had followed him in.
Then, as he stared in shock, one hand controlled the old man’s lifeline and one hand pulled out the old man’s clothes.
After getting out a bunch of bottles and jars and making sure there was nothing else on the old man.
Only then did he tie the old man up with a rope.
Then sitting down again on the main seat of the tent, he said that
“Ghostbusters, we can talk now.”
“Say, what have you come here for?”
The old man was none other than Ghostbusters.
Of course, seeing this scene, no one in the tent said anything; everyone was full of consternation.
Zhao Lang waited for half a day, but the other party did not make a sound, frowned, and said
“Your disciple didn’t kill you, but just mute you?”
Hearing this, the bewildered eyes of the tied up, covered in only a single garment, only gradually slowed down.
Immediately afterwards, his whole body trembled and he looked at Zhao Lang with a face full of disbelief, saying that
“You… You are shameless!!!”
Demon Gu Zi now intuited that his entire heart was blank!
Of course he knew that all these people in Liaodong were Zhao Lang’s.
After meeting Zhao Lang on the grassland in the first place, he had kept an eye out to collect information about Zhao Lang.
Now that Goguryeo had entered Liaodong, the only one who could save Liaodong and its people was Zhao Lang.
The Zongheng family was also responsible for the entry of such barbarians as Goguryeo into the area.
Therefore, he was guilty at heart.
Today he had spied some more information, so he came over with the intention of giving Zhao Lang a message.
And to show his sincerity, he came in person.
However, he never expected that he had only just entered the tent and before he could return to his senses, he was directly emptied of Zhao Lang’s body and then tied up!
He had never suffered such an insult in his life!
When Zhao Lang heard the other man speak, he sneered and said
“So you can still talk, don’t dilly-dally, say, what are you doing here?”
Ghostly said with a bit of anger at this time.
“Untie me! I am Demi-Gu Zi! The controller of the Zongheng family!”
“I’ve come to deliver a message to you today! You are just a small king of the Six Kingdoms! How dare you bully me like this!”
“If the sons and daughters knew about this, they would not forgive you!”
The relationship between the Plutocrats and the Hundred Schools is somewhat similar to that of the Kings of the Six Kingdoms.
They were all in competition, of course, but the chiefs among them were not to be killed by outsiders!
It was also a protection in disguise.
That’s why the ghosts emphasised their status.
Only after he had emphasized it, Zhao Lang only revealed a cold smile and said that
“Like you say so, if it is only people from the hundred schools of thought who can bully you? ”
Guigu Zi said, with a few moments of anger
“Only the chiefs of the hundred schools of thought are qualified!”
“Hmph, I originally had a good deed to give to you, but I didn’t expect that you would be so despicable!”
He had intended to give the Zongheng Clan to Zhao Lang, and the other party was indeed well-talented.
But today, what the other party did was indeed too much!
He simply could not bear it any longer!
Zhao Lang raised his eyebrows at this time and said that
“Which one of the heads of the Hundred Schools did you say? Is there a specific requirement?”
Hearing these words, Guigu Zi was about to laugh in exasperation, which other family?
Even the smallest of the Hundred Schools of Thought is no match for the power of the ordinary nobility!
Now his temper was rising, and he said.
“Whichever family it is, it is not easy for you to get…”
Only before he could finish his sentence, he saw Zhao Lang take a small wooden head out of his arms and say.
“Ugh, this thing is choking.”
The ghostly man froze straight away, recognising the object, and said, with a few dry words
“What is your relationship with the head of the Fa family? How come you have the token of the Fa family?”
Hearing this, Zhao Lang looked at the small wooden head in his hand and said
“I’m sorry, I took it by mistake.”
Then he took out another small piece of wood and said.
“I first thought of taking the healer’s for you.”
“By the way, didn’t Su Ying, the disciple of your vertical and horizontal family, talk to you, and did he find the chief of the healer’s family before?”
Ghostly said with a few moments of consternation that
“We know that the medical family appeared, he died suddenly, but we do not know exactly who it was.”
Zhao Lang nodded his head and
“It’s me, I wonder if I can deceive you about the identity of the leader of this medical family?”
Demonguard was silent for a moment and couldn’t help but ask
“You…”
Only Zhao Lang didn’t want to give him a chance to speak at all, and directly took out the Nongjia’s jade pendant again, and said
“Where is the head of the farming family?”
“Not yet? What about the Mo family? The Confucianists? Oh, yes, and the Yin and Yang.”
Watching Zhao Lang bring out the tokens of the six schools one by one, Guigu Zi said, with a few trembles
“What exactly are you?”
“What kind of person am I?”
Zhao Lang sneered, then stood up and said, with a bit of a snarl
“I am the head of the agricultural family! The medical school Bian Magpie! Mr. Kui Zi of the Mohist school! The head of the Confucian school of initiation! Master of the School of Law! The destroyer of the Yin and Yang family! Zhao Long is also the one!”
“I ask you, Guiguzi, the master of the Zongzheng family!”
“What is the reason for coming here!”
Bang!
The ghostly man sat straight down in shock and muttered that
“How is this possible?”
It was only after a few moments that, with a few moments of disbelief, Ghostly said, dismally
“I have come to deliver news to you, the Lord of Goguryeo has contacted the King’s Court of East Hu, the other side’s 5,000 cavalry have already set off, you should beware.”
“Also, the Zongheng family, Zhang Li, has violated the Zongheng ban, and I originally wanted to give this Zongheng family to you.”
“Now it seems that Your Excellency is unable to see it.”
“It’s just that, I never expected…”
Only before he could finish his words, he saw Zhao Lang, who was originally full of grimace, suddenly revealed a smile and said that
“Aiya, when did Mr. Guigu arrive?”
“Why aren’t you even dressed?”
“Big Dog, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and bring the clothes over! ”
Seeing this scene, even if Gwizdo was used to seeing things in the world, he could not help but stand frozen on the spot.
