Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Qin Ming pondered for a moment and gave the order directly.

As the controller of this battlefield, he has an extremely detailed grasp of the current situation.

Xiasha City is the economic center of Huxi.

As long as he takes this place, Qin Ming will have a chance to catch his breath.

As for Jiang Kaiyu and Huangfu Taiping, they will have no choice but to continue retreating.

After learning the news, Liu Chuang and Cao Chuan immediately nodded.

"Your Highness, the injured are in your care!"

Cao Chuan and Liu Chuang spoke to Qin Ming seriously.

All the soldiers in these camps are their brothers.

The two of them would never put their lives in danger.

"no problem."

Although this responsibility was heavy, Qin Ming agreed to it without hesitation.

After they left, only a group of defeated soldiers were left in the entire military camp.

Qin Ming supported his tired body and shuttled through the military camp.

There were wailing sounds everywhere.

This scene of widespread misery deeply touched Qin Ming's heart.

"Is this...war?"

Qin Ming gritted his teeth, his heart beating fast.

Wu Qingye came from behind and saw Qin Ming standing there in a daze. He immediately stepped forward and said:

"Your Highness, please go and rest."

"If you die, what hope do we have?"

"No hurry, I need to go back."

Qin Ming's eyes were red, and he forced himself to mount his warhorse.

"I'm with you."

Chang Baishan quickly walked out from the back and wanted to go back with Qin Ming.

But Qin Ming waved his hand.

"No need. There are still some soldiers who can move here. If Cao Chuan and Liu Chuang can't take Xiasha City, you can go there."

"Remember, no matter how many people die, I will leave the Sand City!"

These words shocked Wu Qingye and Cao Chuan!

"Yes!"

"Don't worry, we will take this city even if it costs us our lives!"

Qin Ming nodded slowly, then turned and left.

Before leaving, Qin Ming promised the two:

"Don't worry, next time I come back, I will reduce the number of deaths from injuries and illnesses in the barracks by more than half!"

"What!?"

Wu Qingye widened his eyes. Even if he was a great doctor in the world, he couldn't make such a boast.

In this era of low productivity and technological level.

Many deaths caused by soldiers on the battlefield were not caused by real fighting on the battlefield.

On the contrary, many of them died from infections and other problems caused by untimely treatment.

But if we had penicillin, everyone would survive!

The death rate of Qin Ming's soldiers will be reduced to an outrageous level.

It was because he saw so many people die on the battlefield that Qin Ming couldn't help it.

He wants to find Wan Shu!

Wan Shu originally took on the task of producing penicillin.

"Trust Your Highness."

Chang Baishan seemed to have guessed something and stopped Wu Qingye who wanted to continue asking questions.

Qin Ming waved his hand, turned around and left.

After returning to Yueyang City, he did not stop.

Instead, he quickly arrived at Qiantang City in the rear.

Wan Shu was waiting here. Her Lingnan Chamber of Commerce and the Sun family joined forces to provide Qin Ming with a huge amount of goods!

They have placed all their chips on Qin Ming.

There is no way out!

"Your Highness, you came back at this time. Did you run into any trouble?"

Wan Shu sat in the Chamber of Commerce branch room, looking at Qin Ming quietly.

"I need penicillin."

Qin Ming went straight to the point and stared at Wan Shu closely.

"But Your Highness, we have put in a lot of effort, but the production of penicillin is not ideal."

Wan Shu showed an embarrassment on his face.

She didn't talk about her feelings for Qin Ming, but from the beginning to the end, she only stood by Qin Ming as a businessman.

Being able to put effort into something that has never been seen before is already the most worthy thing to do.

But Qin Ming shook his head and said seriously:

"I want all members of the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce to stop working and make penicillin for the army!"

"Your Highness, you are not kidding me, are you?"

Wan Shu frowned and stared at Qin Ming closely.

The idea Qin Ming proposed now was really too shocking.

The people in Lingnan Chamber of Commerce include not only Wan Shu, but also many merchants under him.

Give up all the benefits in your hands and help Qin Ming.

They get nothing at all.

Seeing that Qin Ming did not speak, Wan Shu pondered for a moment and said:

"You're just trying to make things difficult for others... I'll personally call on thirty merchants to help you, okay?"

"No, my brothers will die."

Qin Ming shook his head without any concession.

His people were dying all the time.

Qin Ming must not see this situation continue!

Wan Shu curled his lips and said bitterly:

"Shameless guy, at the critical moment, he will force us women!"

"I'm sorry, but you're the only one I can find now."

"Humph, what can you give me, status or money."

Wan Shu stared at Qin Ming with her eyes wide open. She seemed to have come up with a solution.

"The reputation is not enough, is the market in Huxi enough?"

Facing Wan Shu's fiery gaze, Qin Ming dodged.

But he also has his own way.

He is never stingy when it comes to cooperating with businessmen.

"The... market in Lake West?!"

"Xiasha City can be taken tonight. By then, everything will be ready for reconstruction. If the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce takes control of Huxi, I think it will be more profitable than you imagine."

"But we have to make it clear in advance. The price is that everyone must help me make penicillin!"

The clarion call of the age of firearms has begun.

Just as Jiang Kaiyu said, in a while, the imperial court will also have firearms.

Then Qin Ming's advantage will be greatly reduced.

What Qin Ming can compete with them in now is the level of technology.

The most obvious manifestation is penicillin!

"I promise you."

Looking at the young yet extremely determined handsome face in front of him, Wan Shu said softly.

"Thank you."

"Do we need to say this between you and me?"

Wan Shu gently approached Qin Ming and spoke softly.

"You talk like that, as if I'm being kept."

Qin Ming touched his nose, looking a little embarrassed.

Wan Shu asked curiously:

"What do you mean by keeping someone? If you need me, I can keep you."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have more important things to do now."

Qin Ming stood up and asked Wan Shu:

"Where is Sun Miao? Let him come see me."

Soon, Sun Miao came to the room where Qin Ming was.

"Your Highness, I heard that you have already reached the west of the lake?"

He was not from the battlefield and could only know about Qin Ming's achievements through hearsay.

He was extremely excited to learn that Qin Ming could reach Huxi.

"Yes, but the situation is not good. I need a large quantity of gunpowder."

Qin Ming opened his mouth slowly and talked about his difficulties.

Upon hearing this, Sun Miao immediately waved his hand and said:

"Your Highness, I have already made preparations and even recruited a group of people for you."

"how many people?"

Qin Ming raised his eyebrows and suddenly something happened.

But Sun Miao did not say the specific number, but took out a letter.

"This letter is from Prince Duan. Would you like to take a look?"
