Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

“How much did they earn?”

Heifushi could understand this action.

After all, the journey of this expedition was extremely long, and the consumption of various materials was huge.

This also easily made the cost of the war reach tens of millions of taels of silver.

Qin Ming's ability to settle accounts is obvious to everyone.

I can always balance my income and expenditure after spending huge expenses.

This alliance with the Southeast Asian countries is an important part of recovering costs.

"We earn more than we spend, and only Your Majesty knows the exact amount."

Although Liu Yueli is a secret guard, she is responsible for national intelligence.

But she knows her identity and position, and she won't touch anything she shouldn't touch.

For example, trade.

"Since Your Majesty has taken action, I'm afraid it will not be less."

Chenpi speculated:

"I'm afraid we're going to have to take a holiday."

"What should we do now that the Xiao family has arrived?"

Hei Fu was still a little worried.

Even if it is a concrete wall cast with cement of increased strength.

But the arrival of the Xiao family army is likely to affect the mentality of the local nobles.

Once they are allowed to turn towards the Yan Dynasty again, all the efforts and expansion made by the Luo Sect will soon be in vain.

"Don't worry about this. The person leading the Xiao family is Qin Yue."

Liu Yueli suddenly spoke.

“Qin Yue?”

This name made both of them stunned.

"The secret guards were also very confused during the investigation. Why did they let him take charge?"

"After investigation, it was discovered that the previous generation of the Xiao family had almost all died. Qin Yue was entrusted with the position of the Daqian Crown Prince, so he was naturally respected by the remaining Xiao family members."

"That's not right. Doesn't the Xiao family know what this kid did?"

Chenpi and Heifu both thought this was very abnormal.

Qin Yue was a man of no talent or virtue, and the people of Daqian knew a lot about what he had done, and they were full of contempt when they mentioned him.

But in the Yan Dynasty, it became a hot commodity.

It's really fate that plays tricks on me.

"If he doesn't tell me, the Xiao family won't have a chance to investigate."

Liu Yueli looked a little strange.

Ever since the Xiao family couldn't make it in Jiangnan and moved to Yan Dynasty, they have never had the courage to return to Daqian.

In addition, they have not yet truly gained a foothold in Yan Dynasty.

Naturally, I don't have the energy to investigate the past of a prince.

They only knew that Qin Yue and Qin Ming had a blood feud, that Qin Yue was the son of Concubine Xiao Shufei, that he held the map of Daqian, and that he had retired from the position of crown prince.

Taking so many conditions into consideration, it really doesn't make sense not to choose him as the next generation successor.

"This kid just accepted it so calmly?"

"Yes."

"Then the Xiao family must have committed a great sin in their previous life."

Chenpi laughed out loud.

Hei Fu said seriously:

"Brother Chen, let's not look down on him for now. Let's go back and discuss some tactics later."

"No problem, I'll kill this traitorous bastard!"

The criminal Qin Yue brought the Daqian map to the Yan Dynasty.

This put great pressure on the defense of the Daqian coast.

If they didn't teach him a lesson, Chenpi and Chenpi would feel that they were unworthy of being generals of Daqian.

"You guys can look at this. I have something important to do, so I won't stay any longer."

Liu Yueli looked at the sky and bowed, preparing to leave.

"Hold on."

Heifushi told Liu Yueli about his idea of ​​testing the authenticity of the information from those nobles.

After the other party nodded, he and Chenpi sent him out of the military camp.

……

That same night, Yan headed inland.

Qin Yue and a general in silver armor rode war horses and led the army along the official road.

The general wearing silver armor was named Wanyan Tielu. He was sent by the Yan Dynasty and was a general of the same rank as Yan Guangshou.

He and Qin Yue each led 50,000 men, forming a total of 100,000 troops to suppress the Daqian troops.

But there are still some differences between the two of them.

One was funded by nobles from all over the country and a lot of weapons and equipment were purchased from the countries in Southeast Asia.

The other one is supported by the Xiao family’s factory.

Because of their different missions, although they are one team, there are actually differences.

So they have been traveling for almost half a month, and the relationship between the two main generals Qin Yue and Wanyan Tielu is still as dull as water.

"It's time to rest."

Wanyan Tielu looked at the sky and waved to the person next to him.

Of course, this sentence is mainly said to Qin Yue.

After these few days of contact, he found that the former Crown Prince of Daqian, who the Xiao family had high hopes for, seemed to be a little eager for quick success.

Even after the troops set out, the time for rest along the way was compressed to a minimum.

I just hope to contact the Daqian troops as soon as possible and start fighting.

But if the soldiers in the army keep marching without rest, their combat effectiveness will be reduced.

Wanyan Tielu has taken the initiative to remind Qin Yue these days not to be greedy for success and act rashly.

But after several reminders, for some reason, Qin Yue began to have opinions about him.

Today, he even spoke up to obstruct his arrangements.

"General Wanyan, I think if we rest now, it will definitely delay our journey. Why don't we walk for another two hours and then rest here?"

"Two more hours? General Qin, don't be ridiculous."

Wanyan Tielu felt a surge of blood rushing to his head and almost fainted from anger.

"As the old saying goes, speed is the essence of war...it cannot be made known..."

Qin Yue began to recite his military book haltingly.

In fact, if Wanyan Tielu hadn't taken the initiative to ask for a rest today, Qin Yue would not have let them walk for another two hours.

In Daqian and the Xiao family, wherever he went, he was the center of attention and everyone treated him with respect.

The other party dared to indirectly let his troops rest.

That is to not take Qin Yue seriously.

It was Qin Yue who said that we should take a rest.

In order to demonstrate his dominance, Qin Yue began to use the tricks that Concubine Xiao Shu taught him in the palace.

He started fighting among himself.

This internal struggle doesn't even distinguish between right and wrong, it's just for the right to speak!

But any emotional decision on the battlefield concerns the lives of countless troops.

After fighting for so many years, even Wanyan Tielu, who was as famous as Yan Guangshou, was defeated by him.

He had no idea what this meant.

Why does the other party always sing the opposite tune?

"But we have been traveling all day. If we don't rest, I'm afraid the soldiers won't be able to hold on."

Wanyan Tielu tried to keep his voice calm and told himself that the other party was just a child and needed experience.

He was a third-class noble, and like Yan Guangshou who died in Daqian, he had fought his way up from the bottom.

Logically speaking, when facing Qin Yue, the representative of the Xiao family, it is completely possible to ignore him.

However, after the Xiao family gained control of some firearms factories and key technologies, they were already showing signs of challenging the upper third-class nobles, and nobles from all over had to give them face wherever they went.

In addition, Wanyan Tielu was a general and had to consider the overall situation, so he always spoke to him in a friendly manner.

It’s a pity that Qin Yue didn’t seem to understand.

He still maintains the airs of the Crown Prince of Daqian.

Seeing that his opposition could not suppress Wanyan Tielu, Qin Yue crossed his arms and pretended to be indifferent:

"Okay, then you can rest first. I will be waiting for you in front with my troops."

Wanyan Tielu fell silent.
