The battle for the throne in Kowloon starts with the steady prince

Chapter 104 Oh, Mountain, I've Been Too Good to You (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Reading)
The Qin Dynasty, the Imperial Palace.

Royal study room.

Emperor Daxing, Qin Changqing, Prince Zhou, Qin Changjian, Prince An, Qin Changliu, and others gathered together.

Qin Changjian looked at the memorial with disbelief and said, "Is Xie Jingzhe, the Minister of War of the Han Dynasty, joking? He actually abandoned the attack on Qingzhou and instead attacked Baizhou?"

Prince An, Qin Changliu, also found it somewhat unbelievable. "Theoretically speaking, we should first conquer Qingzhou and then try to retake Baizhou, right?"

After he finished speaking, Qin Changjian and Qin Changliu both looked at Qin Changqing, as only the exceptionally intelligent Qin Changqing could answer their questions.

Emperor Qin Changqing of Daxing said calmly, "It was not wrong to capture Qingzhou, nor was it wrong to attack Baizhou. The problem is that Xie Jingzhe overlooked one thing."

"Ok?"

Both Qin Changjian and Qin Changliu were looking at Qin Changqing.

Qin Changqing calmly said, "Xie Jingzhe's 500,000-strong army is now fighting alone, surrounded by our Qin territory. Under these circumstances, it would be a huge mistake for him not to conquer Qingzhou."

Qin Changjian and Qin Changliu both nodded. This was in line with their thoughts. Xie Jingzhe was simply acting recklessly, to the point that people felt he might have some hidden agenda.

Qin Changqing explained, "Xie Jingzhe had no choice but to attack Baizhou because he knew that after his sixth brother took over Songzhou and Meizhou, the Han Dynasty could no longer achieve anything significant east of the natural barrier."

Qin Changjian and Qin Changliu both nodded in response.

Qin Changqing continued, "Xie Jingzhe's goal is not to reclaim Baizhou, or rather, reclaiming Baizhou is not his ultimate goal. His ultimate goal is to use Baizhou to teleport back to the rear of the Han Dynasty and back to the west of the Tianqian Pass."

"This……"

Both Qin Changjian and Qin Changliu were speechless.

Xie Jingzhe is such a spineless coward. He worked so hard, only to run away in the end.

Qin Changqing explained, "If we don't handle this army of 500,000 properly, it's very likely that our Great Qin will swallow it up in one gulp, and then the Great Han will have no strength to fight anymore."

It should be noted that this army of 500,000 was the border army, which were the most capable fighters.

If something were to happen to this army of 500,000, then it would be absolutely impossible for the Han Dynasty to reclaim Meizhou, Songzhou, and Baizhou in the future.

Even whether they could stabilize the Han territory west of the natural barrier was uncertain.

"Send an order to the King of Liang, instructing him to leave a portion of his troops to garrison Songzhou and immediately rush to the aid of Qingzhou, so that they can eventually encircle and annex the 500,000 troops of the Han Dynasty."

Emperor Qin Changqing of the Great Xing Dynasty instructed the eunuch beside him to issue an imperial edict.

"Yes." The young eunuch wrote furiously and immediately drafted the imperial edict.

……

……

Songzhou.

Qin Changge led the Yunzhou troops to capture Songzhou, then turned around and attacked Meizhou, before finally returning to garrison Songzhou.

This creates an encirclement, as both Qingzhou and Songzhou are under the control of Qin troops.

Behind Baizhou lies a natural barrier.

In this way, the 500,000-strong Han army became an isolated and helpless force.

In the tent.

"Report——"

A deputy general rushed over and presented the imperial edict.

Qin Changge took the imperial edict, opened it, and was somewhat surprised.

Xiao Dashan, Mei Yinxiang, and the others standing to the side were all eager to understand the contents of the imperial edict.

"The fifth brother has already taken over Baizhou."

[Witness Prince Ning, Qin Changfeng, conquering Baizhou, Witness Points +100!]

Xiao Dashan and Mei Yinxiang are both somewhat unbelievable.

"That's an army of 500,000! How could they..." Mei Yinxiang thought the Qingzhou soldiers were far too fierce.

“No, that’s not it,” Qin Changge tossed the imperial edict over, “Take a look for yourself.”

Mei Yinxiang accepted the imperial edict, then realized something, "This is far too reckless..."

Mei Yinxiang then realized that Qin Changge was actually quite reliable, while Prince Ning, Qin Changfeng, was simply a reckless brute.

That's not quite right. It seems that King Lu, Qin Changle, was the real brute.

From this perspective, it seems that Prince Qin Changge is already quite fortunate to be a leader. "Your Highness, His Majesty's intention is for us to rush to the aid of Qingzhou, and then form a three-sided encirclement to annihilate the Han army of 500,000 in one fell swoop."

Mei Yinxiang looked at Qin Changge.

Qin Changge nodded. "In that case, let's do as you say."

"Yes." Mei Yinxiang prepared to arrange the army's departure.

The next moment, Qin Changge said, "Governor of Meizhou, who would be most suitable to garrison Songzhou?"

"Uh……"

Mei Yinxiang suddenly realized that he seemed to be the most suitable candidate.

"May I ask?"

"Of course." Qin Changge nodded.

Mei Yinxiang felt a warm glow in her heart, at least Qin Changge had never doubted his loyalty.

"Your humble servant will certainly live up to your mission!" Mei Yinxiang said, clasping her hands in a fist salute.

"Yeah." Qin Changge nodded.

Mei Yinxiang went down to handle the matter of the army's departure.

Only Qin Changge and Xiao Dashan remained in the tent.

"Your Highness, we are about to face an army of 500,000. They have no way out and will definitely fight to the death!" Xiao Dashan said with some worry.

After all, swords and spears have no eyes on the battlefield.

Qin Changge rolled her eyes at Xiao Dashan, "Didn't we already expect this once we got to the battlefield?"

"Your Highness, you've changed."

Xiao Dashan found it hard to believe.

It should be noted that Xiao Dashan was not originally this "cautious"; he was influenced by Qin Changge.

But now, Qin Changge is not flustered at all, making Xiao Dashan look like the coward.

What is going on?

Could it be that Qin Changge has been possessed?

"Let it change if it wants to," Qin Changge said, pursing her lips.

However, seeing Xiao Dashan's worried expression, Qin Changge decided to reveal her secret to him.

Snapped!
Qin Changge took out a stack of talismans from his storage ring, which was a full centimeter thick.

That is to say, there are at least one hundred talismans.

Qin Changge drew three cards and handed them to Xiao Dashan, saying, "Here you go, don't use them recklessly."

Xiao Dashan took the talisman, looked at it closely, and exclaimed, "Damn..."

"Shh!"

Qin Changge quickly signaled to Xiao Dashan not to make a fuss and not to let anyone hear.

"This is a Domain-Breaking Talisman capable of teleporting tens of thousands of miles away; it's the talisman with the longest teleportation distance." Xiao Dashan looked at Qin Changge. "An ordinary person could use one as a life-saving trump card. Your Highness, you must have at least a hundred here, right?"

Qin Changge said calmly, "There are only ninety-seven left now, Dashan, I've been too good to you."

Xiao Dashan carefully put away the three Domain Breaking Talismans, then remained silent. No wonder Qin Changge wasn't flustered at all.

If there is any danger, just use the Domain Breaking Talisman and go back to your hometown for tea. How could there be any danger?
"This ninth-tier talisman grandmaster is too amazing," Xiao Dashan sighed.

From this perspective, a ninth-tier talisman grandmaster is even more valuable than a first-rank expert.

"How can that be the same? A ninth-rank talisman grandmaster cannot ascend, but a first-rank expert can," Qin Changge rolled her eyes at Xiao Dashan.

"That seems to be true." Xiao Dashan nodded.

"Fortunately, I'm almost at the first rank too," Qin Changge added.

Xiao Dashan: "..."

At this moment, Xiao Dashan looked at Qin Changge and said, "Your Highness, I think you should be considered the number one expert in the world now, right?"
