His identity is the Great Prince of Donghu.
And he is also the most battle-hardened Great Prince.
Unlike the Shenzhou Various Countries, or even the eldest son being the crown prince in Huaxia history.
Here in Donghu, valor is revered, and Tuoba Hu is naturally held in high regard by the King of Donghu.
The secret of the Royal Court’s treasury.
Only the King of Donghu knows, and if the King of Donghu dies, then he shall know.
Even though he doesn’t know much.
But Tuoba Hu clearly knows that his father once said that within the treasury lie the resources accumulated over a century by the Donghu clan.
Weapons, battle armor.
Various dicinal herbs.
As long as the resources in the treasury can be extracted, it can quickly restore the greatly depleted clan’s strength.
"Great Prince."
"There’s no use in cleaning up now."
"The entire Royal Court has been affected by the fire set by the Qin Army, and if cleared, it would take at least a month to thoroughly clean it."
"Moreover, there are too many corpses of clan mbers inside, which also requires ti."
"Also, many clan mbers have been injured by the People of Qin, and the necessary dicinal herbs are simply insufficient."
"I humbly request the Great Prince to make a decision."
Another commander spoke out.
"Is it possible to gather food and dicinal herbs from the surrounding tribes?" Tuoba Hu asked.
"Reporting to the Great Prince."
"Most of the tribes surrounding the Royal Court have been massacred by the Qin Army."
"The tribes are all appealing for aid from the Royal Court." A commander replied, his tone filled with bitterness.
"How significant are our clan’s losses in this attack?" Tuoba Hu asked with a frown.
"The Royal Court originally had more than 300,000 clan mbers."
"After counting, it’s feared over 100,000 clan mbers within the Royal Court were slaughtered by the People of Qin."
"Not just the Royal Court, but the other tribes as well."
"This ti, the People of Qin have co, and our tribe has lost at least 500,000 to 600,000 clan mbers to them, and that’s just the direct victims of their slaughter."
"Many also died from injuries inflicted by the People of Qin."
"Furthermore, the reserves of grain from the tribes were also set ablaze by the Qin Army when they discovered them."
"Winter has already arrived, and with our clan losing so much, without reserves of food, many more clan mbers may perish under the cold."
At the ntion of the clan’s losses.
The commanders around Tuoba Hu were all frowning, filled with pain and resentnt.
"Qin."
"All of this is the doing of Qin."
"Once our clan’s strength has recovered, I will certainly seek revenge against Qin, making them pay in blood." Tuoba Hu said coldly.
At this mont, all they could harbor was hatred toward Qin and making fierce vows daily.
Aside from this.
They seed unable to do anything else.
At that mont!
"Report."
"Reporting to the Great Prince."
"General Wu Wu has returned."
A Donghu soldier hurriedly ran towards Tuoba Hu, looking flustered.
"Where is Father?" Tuoba Hu imdiately asked.
"This... this..."
The soldier reporting seed hesitant, as if afraid to speak.
Tuoba Hu frowned.
"Great Prince."
"The Great King... the Great King he..."
Following behind.
Wu Wu was badly wounded, blood continually dripping, and there were nurous defeated soldiers behind him.
They appeared extrely disheveled.
At a glance.
This was evidently a defeated force.
"What happened to Father?" Tuoba Hu asked again imdiately.
He sensed sothing was wrong.
Wu Wu, with a trembling expression, directly knelt before Tuoba Hu.
"The Great King said as the King of Donghu, he failed to stop the Qin Army from massacring the clan, which is a sin."
"In this campaign against Qin, achieving no results and instead being pursued by the Qin Army, the Great King declared he would fight to the death against the Qin Army."
"The Great King, fighting valiantly against the Qin Army, died at the hands of the Qin General Zhao Feng."
"This is the Royal Order handed down to by the Great King, asking to present it to the Great Prince, stating this Royal Order is the key to unlocking the clan’s treasury, and upon opening the treasury, our clan can rapidly recover." Wu Wu pulled out the blood-stained Royal Order from his chest and respectfully handed it to Tuoba Hu.
"Father."
"Is he really dead?"
Tuoba Hu widened his eyes, finding it hard to believe.
When they split forces, everything was fine, and now, in less than twenty days, he fell?
It was naturally an enormous blow to Tuoba Hu.
"Great Prince."
"I wouldn’t dare speak falsely." Wu Wu said tremblingly.
"Father."
"How could you do this, with your death, can I really support the clan?"
"With such a great loss to our clan, I cannot bear it." Tuoba Hu’s voice was choked with sobs, and he cried out loudly.
The surrounding Donghu commanders all began to weep.
"Great Prince."
"The Great King said."
"After he falls in battle, the Great Prince shall hold the Royal Order and succeed as king."
"The clan’s treasury is beneath the throne."
"I greet the Great King on behalf of the subalterns."
Wu Wu raised the Royal Order high, kneeling directly before Tuoba Hu.
The surrounding Donghu commanders knelt as well, calling out in unison: "Hail to the Great King."
As the voice spread.
The Donghu soldiers all kneeled down, bowing and calling out in reverence.
In no ti.
The surroundings of the already ruined Royal Court were filled with kneeling Donghu people.
They were calling out to their new king.
"Heaven witnesses."
"The Wolf God witnesses."
"I, Tuoba Hu, am the King of Donghu."
"Today."
"I swear here to do my utmost to strengthen the clan."
"The clan’s vengeance, the killing of my father, Tuoba Hu will never forget."
"Soday when the clan is restored, I, Tuoba Hu, will lead our tribe’s warriors to trample over Qin, making Qin pay back in blood."
"To tear Qin General Zhao Feng into pieces."
"Family and tribal hatred."
"Never to be forgotten."
Tuoba Hu, raising the Royal Order, cried out with overwhelming hatred.
"Long live the Great King."
"Long live Donghu."
"Long live the Great King..."
The cheers resounded in waves.
Tuoba Hu led Wu Wu and other trusted commanders towards the main camp of the Eastern Barbarian Royal Court.
Soon.
They arrived before the throne of the King of Donghu.
Yet at this mont.
The throne had already shattered, as if broken by a powerful force.
