Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Because gunpowder is troublesome to load.

If a real fight breaks out and they still use firearms to fight, they might be hacked to death while loading ammunition.

Qin Ming wanted to avoid this problem.

Just focus on the weapons they produced in the previous era.

It’s this kind of crossbow!

The repeating crossbow is very easy to use. After several improvements, they have even shortened the size of the crossbow arrows a lot.

A crossbow arrow is only two or three inches long.

There is a sharp shear in front.

This will make it convenient for them to carry more during fierce battles.

When loading it, you can just reach out and grab a handful and stuff it in, shake it twice to fix the position, and then you can start shooting.

"Everyone, now is the time to test your accuracy. These guys are deliberately keeping their distance from us. Let them have a taste of our strength."

"OK!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers of the Fire Camp shouted.

They simply dumped these dozen or so trucks of supplies into the wilderness.

Then, among the undulating hills, they quickly pursued the fleeing imperial troops.

That was when they left Xiasha City.

The task Qin Ming assigned to them was to kill as many people as possible.

Up to now, Liu Chuang has been following Qin Ming's arrangements.

……

On the other side, Wu Qingye's troops spent several hours conducting a large-scale search.

Finally, we found the enemy's transport troops on a narrow road.

With two sneers, he put down the telescope.

"So you want to go through Xishu!"

He didn't know how the people in the Changhe military camp persuaded Xishu.

This time we didn't even take the normal border route.

Prepare to enter Western Shu directly from another remote road.

Then he entered the mountains and forests from Western Shu and distributed the supplies to the hundreds of tribes in the south.

But unfortunately, their actions were quickly discovered by Wu Qingye.

Even got caught up.

It was impossible for them to escape at this time.

"General, there are about one or two thousand people, but they are carrying a lot of stuff, more than three hundred carriages!"

The soldiers under his command spoke with great excitement.

When hearing this, Wu Qingye on the side couldn't help but gasp.

The recent series of wars have almost drained Qin Ming's family assets.

But even so, they still managed to continue using factories and workshops, as well as the land they had previously acquired, to produce and trade.

Money earned from various places such as Jiangnan and the Western Regions.

Finally there is a chance to add to the battlefield.

But even so, they still have to tighten their belts every day.

But now if we can take back the court’s supplies.

Then everything will be very friendly to them.

Thinking of this, he gave the order directly:

"Kill them first! Transport all the stuff back!"

After hearing what he said, the people around him nodded.

Their original strategy was to use smoke bombs to let Liu Chuang tie down the enemy.

Wu Qingye's men took the opportunity to take the things away.

But later the enemy troops split into two groups.

There is no other way, they have to confront each other head-on.

Anyway, the number of enemy soldiers is not that large.

"Do it!"

On a quiet path.

The imperial soldiers were on the march, and they were all feeling a little hesitant at the moment.

Because the risks of this trip are so high, almost any experienced veteran can understand it.

But they had no choice because it was a death order from above.

They must deliver the things over.

Just when a group of soldiers were all silent and no one spoke.

Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting and killing sounds coming from the high slope in the distance.

Turning around, they saw a shocking scene.

Wu Qingye led thousands of soldiers, who fired muskets in their hands.

Almost without any pause, it harvested the lives of everyone present.

Their marksmanship is extremely strong, which they have finally mastered after going through devilish training.

In addition, there was the automatic musket that Qin Ming made for them.

The Feng Camp's ability to pull and kill quickly has been greatly improved.

The situation is almost one-sided.

It took less than half an hour for all the supplies to fall into Wu Qingye's hands.

Just as they were counting all this.

A group of soldiers wearing rattan armor surrounded them from all directions.

The leader was an extremely strong man with a scar on his face.

"Everyone, what are you doing?"

There was a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.

He asked only after blocking all of Wu Qingye's men.

"This is a civil war in our Daqian. What do you mean?"

Western Shu was not one of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions.

They are independent countries with their own territory and a large area.

Despite its weak strength, Daqian has been harassed by northern tribes and southern barbarians for many years.

Didn't get entangled with them too much.

In addition, this area is poor, mountainous and has bad water, and the roads are difficult to travel on.

It is almost equivalent to the uncivilized area of ​​Lingnan.

So many people don’t even have the intention to come and invade this territory.

But today they took the initiative to jump out and even wanted to intervene in their war during the civil strife in Daqian.

This immediately made Wu Qingye's tone become a little unfriendly.

"Oh, people from Daqian, I know about your civil war, but now you are fighting on my territory."

"You are……?"

"I am Xiahou Wanqing, the border defense commander of Western Shu!"

"I saw you guys fighting here, so I ran over to stop them. Who knew everyone would be dead the moment I got there?"

Xiahou Wanqing spoke with a smile, but there was no regret on his face.

What he said sounded nice, but the reality was completely different.

He could have come earlier to mediate the fight.

But he kept hiding nearby, waiting for everyone on his side to die before finally coming out.

Want to reap the benefits while being a fisherman!

Wu Qingye naturally saw through the thoughts of this guy at a glance.

He ignored the other party's show-off and said coldly:

"You don't have to worry about all our own affairs. I appreciate your kindness in coming here to care about us."

After he finished speaking, Wu Qingye didn't want to bother with him any more.

He waved to the soldiers to load the carriages and prepared to leave.

But at this time, Xiahou Wanqing took a step forward and directly blocked their way.

"Oh, that won't do."

"Everyone, you are indeed engaged in a civil war, but now it has reached our border. This is happening before my eyes. It is my duty, I can't just ignore it!"

As soon as these words came out.

The atmosphere between the two sides suddenly became tense.

Xiahou Wanqing is a guy with a big appetite.

Wu Qingye could even notice that Xiahou Wanqing's eyes were shining when he saw these supplies.

Even though it was on the other side's territory.

But Wu Qingye was not afraid at all.

Instead, he snorted coldly and asked Xiahou Wanqing:

"What do you, Western Shu, mean? Are you going to go to war with Lingnan?"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood."

Xiahou Wanqing smiled and pointed at the supplies behind Wu Qingye.

"After all, this is something that passed through our territory. If you want it to pass through customs, you should at least let me inspect it. Please cooperate with me."

“Is it an inspection or withholding?”

Wu Qingye didn't give him any face and asked back coldly.
