Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Qin Ming led the Shanzi Camp's troops, and the two sides fought for a long time.

We still couldn't stop them completely, and these guys took some of the things away.

This battle ended after two or three hours of fighting.

After returning to the city, Cao Chuan had already counted the results of today's battle.

"Your Highness, today we have killed over 8,000 enemy soldiers and injured countless others."

"Yueyang City lost 1,500 soldiers and 2,870 were injured."

"Send him to the rear for recuperation. By the way, hasn't the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce produced the penicillin yet?"

At this time, Qin Ming suddenly thought of a very important question.

The casualties in war are actually not the most important thing.

Post-war recuperation is the most important thing, and this is a competition of the entire army's soft power.

Like soldiers like Qin Ming.

If the wound is not treated properly, it can easily lead to death.

At this time, penicillin is an extremely important thing.

It can help them minimize deaths due to injuries and infections.

"I've been pushing for this, but they haven't done much yet."

In the past few years, Qin Ming has been asking people from the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce to help him produce penicillin.

But unfortunately, his hygiene conditions are not up to standard.

So I failed countless times.

It was only in recent days that some news finally came out.

But there is still some way to go before mass production.

Qin Ming has been at war with the imperial court for nearly a month now.

If they can make a batch and send it to the military camp.

That was definitely very exciting news for Qin Ming.

At this time, Liu Chuang walked in from outside and said to Qin Ming with a worried look on his face:

"Today, both the artillery and the muskets have been leaked. Your Highness, if they also learn it, what should we do?"

"This kind of thing is normal. How could it be that we are the only ones who can master this technology?"

Qin Ming waved his hand and told them not to worry.

Just like the looms he had taken out before.

Now, it has actually flowed into thousands of households.

These days, there's no such thing as intellectual property rights.

As long as we can thoroughly study the structure of Qin Ming’s weapons.

Even if he just rubbed it with his hands, Daqian could at least make something that could be used on the battlefield.

But it takes time for them to do these things now.

Qin Ming could take advantage of the fact that they had not yet fully armed themselves with firearms.

Put as much pressure on the other party as possible.

You can even lead your troops directly into Huxi.

"The lethality of this weapon scares even me. I can't even imagine how we can prevent it if they do this."

"It doesn't matter. We just need to come up with something more powerful than them."

Qin Ming suddenly said something at this time, which made both of them unable to understand.

But he didn't explain.

He just asked the two of them to go back and reorganize the army first, while he sat in the room and began to think.

On the other side, the seriously injured Jiang Kaiyu was brought back to the military camp by Wu Wencheng.

There is no longer any of the bold words that were spoken when I first came here.

When he first came here.

But he faced Wu Wencheng and Huangfu Taiping's constant scolding directly.

Some even said that the two of them were useless and would be punished even if they went to the court.

But now he had brought his troops with him, suffered so many losses, and returned in disgrace.

This made Jiang Kaiyu embarrassed.

"What about those things? Did you grab them all?"

Jiang Kaiyu sat on the bed with a pale face, turned his head and spoke to Wu Wencheng.

Wu Wencheng nodded immediately.

He waved his hand and asked everyone to bring in all the cannons and muskets and place them in front of Jiang Kaiyu.

Jiang Kaiyu carefully studied these weapons, and then directly instructed Wu Wencheng:

"Go find Huangfu Taiping and ask him to gather all the local craftsmen. I want them to replicate these weapons within three days."

"Row."

This time their battle was not in vain.

On the contrary, the harvest this time was extremely huge.

Despite losing a large number of soldiers, Jiang Kaiyu and Wu Wencheng used Qin Ming, an extremely terrifying weapon.

They've all been brought here.

If only local craftsmen could make these things.

In the next war, they will at least have some means to counter Qin Ming.

When he thought of this, Jiang Kaiyu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm going to kill you with your weapon."

Recalling the time when Qin Ming was standing on the city wall, a random shot from the musket almost made him lose his combat effectiveness.

Jiang Kaiyu felt frightened.

Facing Qin Ming who possesses this weapon.

If the imperial court continued to fight him in the same way as before.

It will only result in the loss of a lot of people.

Don't be anxious now!

Thinking of this, Jiang Kaiyu called his men over.

"Bring me paper and pen. I need to write a letter to His Majesty."

The battle has now reached this point.

Logically speaking, it should have reached a fever pitch.

But in fact, the two sides are still just warming up and have not fought a life-and-death battle.

Jiang Kaiyu took the initiative to request to suspend the battle.

You need to wait for support from the craftsmen in the rear and get your weapons before you can start fighting.

This actually put him under tremendous pressure.

If Emperor Qian does not allow it, they will have no choice but to fight on.

After all, he had not seen the power of Qin Ming's artillery with his own eyes.

I guess everyone would think Jiang Kaiyu is exaggerating.

But those extremely tragic figures during the war cannot be falsified.

"Send this letter to the court."

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

His men quickly took away his things.

At this time, Huangfu Taiping had already entered the military camp with a group of craftsmen.

I originally thought that Jiang Kaiyu had relinquished his military power.

There will be no chance for me to re-enter this camp.

But this time Huangfu Taiping was called back by the other party.

Wu Wencheng brought him quickly to the front of Jiang Kaiyu's tent, and then said:

"My Lord, all the craftsmen have been brought here. There are nearly thirty of them now."

"Show them the weapons."

Jiang Kaiyu waved his hand and asked the two to bring the craftsmen in.

Soon, a group of craftsmen walked into the tent.

They examined the weapons carefully and discussed them for a long time.

Some people even took a small hammer and knocked on it.

Carefully feel the texture of these materials.

But their expressions soon turned ugly.

"These things are very well made. Although we can make them with our own methods, the products we produce will probably just be defective ones."

At this time, several craftsmen were a little scared.

But if you can't do it, you just can't do it.

I could only come to Jiang Kaiyu and tell the truth.

"What do you mean by defective?"

When Jiang Kaiyu heard this, he immediately frowned and even his tone became a little serious.

“The quality will be much worse than theirs.”

"Yes, their materials alone are much better than what we have on hand."

"The forging technique is also very strange..."

Everyone talked at once and pointed out the key points of Qin Ming's weapons.

But Jiang Kaiyu didn't care about that. He just waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"Don't talk nonsense. I just want to ask you one question: can defective products be used on the battlefield?"

"This... should be possible."

Everyone nodded hesitantly.
