Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"Where did you get it?"

Xiao Tianzhu took a deep breath, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and took the opportunity to quickly sort out the current situation in his mind.

"Is there anything else you don't know?"

When Qin Yue saw that the two men were intimidated by him, he immediately laughed triumphantly.

"Didn't I just tell you? The victory or defeat of a war isn't just decided on the battlefield!"

"Half a month ago, I arranged for someone to infiltrate Guanghai City with the Luo Cult followers and obtained the formula for concrete!"

"Besides that, there are their latest weapon blueprints! Isn't this a hundred times more powerful than just blindly fighting them head-on?"

His words were extremely arrogant, but Xiao Tianzhu and Wanyan Tielu didn't quite believe it.

After all, the situation this time is much more complicated than they imagined.

Qin Ming's troop arrangement must be very clever.

How could the formula and blueprints be leaked so easily?

"Are you sure it's true?"

"What a joke! Of course I'm sure! How about this, you call a few craftsmen over and I'll just show them a random weapon blueprint!"

Chenpi and Heifu were worried that Qin Yue would be suspicious, so they mixed some discarded genuine drawings in.

The mixture of real and fake makes it difficult for the craftsmen to tell them apart.

After all, their technology is not yet up to that level.

"Brother Wanyan, go call a few craftsmen over."

Xiao Tianzhu was silent for a long time, and finally spoke to Wanyan Tielu.

Wanyan Tielu also knew that this was a big deal.

So he called over a few of his own military craftsmen.

After waiting for nearly an hour, several craftsmen came to Qin Yue's military camp in a hurry.

"Just this blueprint."

Qin Yue casually pulled out a drawing and handed it to them.

Everyone gathered together and carefully studied the drawings he gave.

After carefully considering it for a moment, several people nodded.

"This is on the same level as the weapons provided to us by the Nanyang countries, and it's quite powerful."

"But it's still a little short of penetrating that material called concrete."

Their opinions were quite reasonable. After they listed all the pros and cons, Wanyan Tielu and Xiao Tianzhu were shocked.

"It can reach the level of...factories in Southeast Asian countries."

"That might save a lot of money."

Wanyan Tielu nodded with satisfaction.

As one of the upper nobles, he knew that when many nobles pooled their money to purchase firearms, it would cost a lot.

But that's just the price when you buy from someone else.

If you can do it yourself, the cost will definitely not be that high!

With the blueprints, they can invest silver and start building factories to produce them.

"Now you know I didn't lie to you, right?"

Seeing their uncertain expressions, Qin Yue smiled triumphantly.

"what do you want?"

Xiao Tianzhu took a deep breath and stared at Qin Yue.

Qin Yue immediately said:

"I don't ask for much. How about you give me half of the soldiers and provide a batch of weapons and equipment so that I can continue to fight for the Yan Dynasty and give me a chance to participate in the war?"

"Half is too much."

Xiao Tianzhu immediately shook his head.

The troops he brought this time numbered in the hundreds of thousands, so he could still afford them if he really wanted to.

But if these troops are sent out, it will be like throwing meat buns at a dog, and they will never come back.

Coupled with Qin Yue's level...

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianzhu prepared to bargain.

"Then there's nothing to discuss. You two should understand my current value. I just want a chance to make a contribution to the Yan Dynasty!"

Qin Yue frowned and spoke with some displeasure.

The atmosphere at the scene became tense.

At this time, several people suddenly ran in from outside.

"Oh no! Someone from the Wu family sent a message saying that Qin Ming's troops seem to have appeared on the east coast!"

"Wu family? Qin Ming?"

Neither Xiao Tianzhu nor Wanyan Tielu had expected to connect these two names.

Especially when hearing about the Wu family.

Qin Yue was not a local, so he naturally didn't know what they were surprised about.

As soon as he heard that Qin Ming was coming, the anger that had been hidden in his heart for a long time was immediately aroused.

However, he still didn't quite understand the strength of the Wu family.

So he asked:

"What level of aristocratic family is the Wu family?"

"First-class noble."

Xiao Tianzhu replied casually, thinking quickly about a solution in his mind.

"First class..."

Qin Yue’s heart suddenly moved.

It is said that although there were many nobles of the upper three classes in the entire Yan Dynasty, there were only four families of nobles of the first class.

They were called the Four Pillar States and divided the Yan Dynasty into four regions: east, south, west and north.

Every first-class family has vast territories, millions of elite soldiers, and countless dependent families, large and small.

If necessary during wartime, they can even call upon millions of elite soldiers to fight.

Although the Xiao family is now developing well, they are still dependent on the Yun family in the west, waiting for the opportunity to join the upper nobility.

The appearance of Xiao Tianzhu made it difficult for Qin Yue to survive in the Xiao family.

It just so happened that the Wu family was threatened by Qin Ming's arrival.

If I surrender now, I might have a chance to start a new business and rebuild my country with the help of the Wu family!

Thinking of this, Qin Yue said:

"A portion of your troops was also provided by the Wu family, right?"

"What do you mean?"

Xiao Tianzhu stared at Qin Yue with a bad look.

Qin Yue began to analyze the current situation.

"The Four Pillar States have assembled their troops and are heading towards the west coast. It will be difficult for them to support the east coast in a short period of time."

"If you agree to my terms and give me a portion of the troops, I can leave the battlefield and go support the Wu family and stop Qin Ming."

Xiao Tianzhu and Wanyan Tielu are both veterans.

It was obvious at a glance that this guy was looking for another way out.

Xiao Tianzhu said disdainfully:

"That's easy to say. I'm going to do you a favor by giving you the frontline troops, and leave us here to withstand the pressure of the front battlefield?"

"No, I still have concrete. You just need to make it, and then you can build a fortress and confront the Daqian troops again, waiting for the subsequent reinforcements to arrive! It doesn't matter if you have fewer troops!"

Qin Yue took out a recipe.

"I have already mobilized some resources. If you agree, these resources can be handed over to you two now."

Xiao Tianzhu's eyes flickered. The message from the Wu family had a very clear meaning, which was to ask them to allocate some manpower to provide support.

But none of them wanted to go there since they were on the front line.

After all, they are not under the jurisdiction of the Wu family. Whether it is Xiao Tianzhu or Wanyan Tielu, they are all under the command of the Yun family.

At this time, the only option was to throw away Qin Yue, this hot potato.

You can get some peace and quiet and win a favor from the Wu family.

"What do you say?"

Xiao Tianzhu asked Wanyan Tielu in a low voice.

"I think the same as you, but it can only be 100,000, no more."

"Ah."

The two told Qin Yue the decision they had discussed.

Although it was only one hundred thousand, Qin Yue finally agreed.

"Okay, but I need to be fully equipped with weapons and equipment!"

"Of course, I also hope that you can keep your promise and hand over the concrete formula and the necessary materials."

Xiao Tianzhu looked deep in his eyes and nodded slightly.
