Chapter 767: Small Kitchen

The second prince of Donghu led the remnants of less than 10,000 people to retreat in a hurry, and encountered an ambush set by Qin Lang in advance on the way, losing most of them, although the second prince of Donghu did not die, he was also wounded by an arrow, and fled with hundreds of cavalry in embarrassment.

If he hadn't brought almost all the soldiers back to Wushui City, the second prince of Donghu and his cavalry would not have thought of leaving at all.

Even so, it was a big win.

But this victory, neither Zheng Guanqing nor Qin Lang could not be happy.

The old man rescued by Qin Lang from the attack on Qingdi Wangcheng before was actually one of the fine works that the imperial court scattered in the border passes and grasslands more than thirty years ago.

At that time, the emperor was ambitious and wanted to annihilate the Hu and Di people in one fell swoop.

But the reality gave him a great blow, a big battle, and Daqing was defeated. It also completely shattered the emperor's ambition.

Since then, Daqing has taken a defensive-oriented approach to the Guanwai Fallout, and the detailed work that was sent out has lost its effect.

To make matters worse, the emperor had forgotten about them. Without the emperor's edict, they could not leave the grassland, and could only be buried here for the rest of their lives, living and dying silently, and no one would even know their identities.

Later, Zheng Guanqing's father led troops to garrison the northwest, and they did not try to contact him, but failed.

When Zheng Guanqing took over his father's garrison, several old guys who had not died saw that he had a tough attitude towards the Hu people, and once scored the Hu people into East Hu and West Hu, and the West Hu Yuan never showed up again, and the strength of the East Hu was far inferior to the previous Hu people, and their hearts rekindled hope.

But they didn't dare to act rashly, and they had to have a perfect way to make sure that Zheng Guanqing would believe them before they dared to show their faces in front of him.

However, before they could take action, news came that the imperial court was going to make an alliance with Donghu.

Their plans could only be aborted.

No one can disobey the will of the imperial court, not even Zheng Guanqing.

Under such a premise, there is no need to say anything.

Perhaps, they can really only enter the coffin silently with all the materials they have worked so hard to collect for more than 30 years!

Even if they knew that the Donghu people had ghosts, so what? No one will believe them!

It wasn't until Qin Lang led people to raid Qingdi Wangcheng and killed the Qingdi people almost every step in one fell swoop, that they became excited again.

There are still people in Daqing who are willing to fight.

From this incident, they also got a glimpse of the emperor's deep secret thoughts.

It's not that the emperor doesn't want to fight Donghu Qingdi, but he is afraid that there will be endless troubles after defeating the battle, so it is better not to fight.

If he was like Qin Lang and destroyed the other party as soon as he made a move, the emperor would not refuse to sell it.

The blood that had been cooled in their hearts for a long time was rekindled by this big battle, they were unwilling to die so silently, and simply died as a live horse doctor, and the old man in the dark cloud took the lead and managed to get mixed up with Qin Lang's side.

During the days when he lived in the Qin family, he carefully observed everyone in the Qin family, and became more and more determined in his heart.

He believed that this time he was not looking at the wrong person.

If they can really annihilate Donghu in one fell swoop and let the emperor remember them again, maybe they will be able to return to Daqing and the Central Plains to spend their old age in peace.

Even though they have lived in this place for more than 30 years and have long been fully integrated into this place, deep in their hearts, they still miss their hometown and look forward to one day returning to their roots.

It happened that at that time, they found out about the crisis in Donghu, and they were even more shocked, and it was not time to have a showdown with Qin Lang according to the plan, but they had to bite the bullet.

This is a big crisis, but also a big opportunity.

If Donghu was really cornered by natural disasters and gave it a go, and Daqing was defenseless, then the result would be terrible. They are all compatriots, how can they bear it?

Qin Lang saw the rusty piece of iron that represented their identity, and the shock in his heart can be imagined, which led to a series of conversations and arrangements with Zheng Guanqing later.

Originally, everything was well arranged, and a big pit was dug and waited for the Donghu people to jump, and by the way, they took their lair.

But who would have thought that Vice President Jiang would be treason and make a big mess of everything that should have gone well.

After the war, the people of Wushui City suffered countless deaths and injuries, and they were in a mess, and the cries that could be heard everywhere in the city and the blood stains that could be seen everywhere made everyone's hearts very heavy.

After Vice General Jiang was exposed, he had committed suicide in fear of crime, and Zheng Guanqing hated him so much that he almost didn't drag him out and whip his corpse.

This battle shocked the government and the opposition, the emperor was furious, issued an order to reprimand, Zheng Guanqing asked for guilt, saying that he obeyed the holy ruling.

In any case, it was his negligence that caused all this.

King Wu's Mansion and Ning Wang's Mansion took the opportunity to fan the wind and make waves, trying to put the main responsibility for this matter on Qin Lang's head, King Qian was so angry that he didn't mean to stand up for Qin Lang at all, but was very ashamed to ask his father for his guilt, and had the intention of abandoning Qin Lang: It is his ability to survive it, but it is really not good, it is also his life.

This operation stunned and admired King Wu's Mansion and Ning Wang's Mansion.

In this way, it is not good for them to fall into the well again, otherwise it will be too ugly.

Zheng Guanqing, as the main general, should bear the main responsibility, even if Qin Lang and other generals are unhappy for him in their hearts, it is irrefutable.

Moreover, with Qin Lang's current position, unless the court has something to say to them to appeal, he will not even have a chance to fold.

We can only wait for news from the DPRK and China on this matter, and nothing can be done for the time being.

Fortunately, the emperor was not old and confused, and Zheng Guanqing's final punishment result was that the merits and demerits were offset, and he ordered to hand over the Wushui East and West Military Camp to Duan Fu, the general of the protector, to be responsible, and ordered him to return to Beijing at the beginning of spring, and then Qin Lang and his wife set off with him.

The other generals were rewarded and punished according to their merits and deeds in this battle, but Qin Lang still had nothing, saying that he would talk about it after returning to Beijing.

This is already a good result, and everyone is relieved.

Qin Lang didn't care, even if the royal family was wrong at this time, in fact, he was not the son of King Qian, he didn't have an opinion.

Zheng Guanqing knew better what the emperor meant, their father and son had been in Wushui City for so many years, and they were already with deep roots, and the emperor was afraid that he had already been afraid of it, but he had never had the opportunity to do anything. And Wushui City is also inseparable from its own defense. He could only continue to tolerate it.

But now that Qingdi has been destroyed, Donghu first destroyed their vitality due to natural disasters, and then almost all the 80,000 elites were wiped out, and the crown prince with the strongest martial arts and the most resourceful was also dead.
