Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Qin Ming was not very clear about the changes in the Yan Dynasty military camp.

But less than two days after arriving at the sea outpost, he discovered something was wrong.

Yan Chao's reaction seemed too quick.

In just two days, Qin Ming was not only exposed, but also surrounded by a group of Yan troops.

Fortunately, they were not numerous, and Chang Baishan had been outside helping to clean up and repel some of them.

Qin Ming took advantage of the abundant time to lead people to build a fortress.

"Your Majesty, more and more people are coming. They seem to have some means unknown to us to get the news of the Daqian troops landing in time!"

"The Yan Dynasty nobles probably have a way to control this area."

Qin Ming was not surprised that the result of the surprise attack was to seize the opponent's sea chart.

Now that they have the sea chart, all they need to do is attract as many enemy troops as possible.

Just as he was communicating with Chang Baishan, the message from the telegraph was delivered.

"Your Majesty, the frontline fighters have handed over the problematic concrete formula to Qin Yue. Now the entire Yan Dynasty army has begun to build a fortress on the west coast to block our attack!"

"General Cao sent a message asking if you need to arrange for their troops to come to support them while they build their fortifications."

If the Yan Dynasty's troops start building fortifications, they will definitely not take any further action in the near future.

It just so happened that Qin Ming was alone and weak, and Cao Chuan and others were actually a little shocked when they learned of his arrival.

But I reacted quickly and asked him if he needed help.

“Tell them that after the concrete poured by Qin Yue is completely dry, they can start the attack.”

With the formula Qin Ming gave them, there was no apparent problem with the city wall they cast at the beginning.

But this thing is very brittle, unlike the ones used by the Daqian troops, which are very tough.

Just a few blasts with artillery will cause it to crack quickly.

By then we will be able to catch them by surprise.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I didn't call out today."

Chang Baishan spoke hesitantly.

After hearing this, Qin Ming's eyes were fixed on the map.

“Is it because of the terrain?”

In front of them were three hills.

Although the number of supporting troops was not too large, they defended the dangerous position and successfully blocked the counterattack of Qin Ming's troops.

It's equivalent to blocking them on this coast.

Although fighting with Qin Ming would cause them heavy losses, the Yan army would be able to send more troops to support them later.

"Yes, these three mountains almost block this place off."

"I think this place is a bit like the small county town that Wu Shizhong used to manage."

"Your Majesty, how about we send out more troops?"

Chang Baishan has followed Qin Ming for so many years and he also knows how to fight.

Faced with this problem, the solution he thought of was to deploy troops and engage in large-scale battle with them.

In the past few days, Qin Ming has been sending thousands of troops to Changbai Mountain.

Such troops are fine for clearing out miscellaneous soldiers, but if they encounter an enemy legion that is well prepared for battle.

If they really wanted to hold on, Qin Ming would definitely be trapped here.

By then, the Yan army would realize that they only needed to gradually send reinforcements here to lock Qin Ming on the coastline, and there would be no trouble, and they would no longer regard Qin Ming as a threat.

Qin Ming's plan to tie up more of the opponent's manpower was out of the question.

After pondering for a moment, Qin Ming slowly stood up.

"Come on, take me to see it."

Due to the terrain problem, what Qin Ming saw on the map was definitely not clear.

Still need to conduct on-site inspections before making a decision.

Soon, the two arrived in the wilderness, and after walking for a distance, they saw three thin peaks in the distance.

"This is where we're fighting the Yan army today. These three mountains are three natural lines of defense. If we continue like this, I think it will be difficult to deal with their troops."

Chang Baishan pointed to the three mountains in front of him and told Qin Ming about the difficulties he encountered today.

Qin Ming randomly found a high slope and looked into the distance.

Because it is close to the coast, the mountains here are actually not very high and are even a bit thin.

"I see……"

After Qin Ming carefully observed the terrain, the doubts in his mind were quickly resolved.

"Besides sending more troops, do you have any other good ideas?"

Turning his head, Qin Ming looked at Chang Baishan with a smile.

"If you have already thought of a solution, there is no need to test me. Just tell me quickly."

According to Chang Baishan's understanding of Qin Ming.

He must have come up with a suitable solution, and Qin Ming did find a good way.

"How much of the gunpowder we brought did you use up?"

"It didn't take much. The Yan army's reinforcements are less than 50,000."

Chang Baishan scratched his head and said.

"That's great. Call the troops over and have them draw the outline of this mountain for me."

"What do you want?"

"Blow up the mountain!"

Qin Ming uttered two words lightly.

When Chang Baishan heard this, his eyes widened instantly and his mouth opened in disbelief.

"You're too direct!"

"All the problems arise because of insufficient firepower. Since they occupy the mountain, let's blow it up and see if there's any place they can hide."

Qin Ming wanted to expand the threat he posed to the Yan army.

The first thing that needs to be solved is the problem of not being blocked.

These three mountains are his biggest obstacles.

It just so happened that Qin Ming brought a lot of supplies with him on this trip.

By calculating the approximate location and placing the explosives, the three hills can be blown up.

By then, the Yan army will have nowhere to escape.

"Come here, some of you, and record the outline of the mountain."

Chang Baishan quickly called over several soldiers who were specifically responsible for recording maps.

Then they were asked to draw the general outline of the mountain in proportion.

Qin Ming returned to the tent and made calculations according to these drawings.

That night, we found several locations where the explosives were buried.

"Sell the stuff and launch a feint attack tomorrow."

Late at night, Qin Ming told Chang Baishan the location he had calculated.

Chang Baishan immediately took a group of soldiers and secretly went up the mountain to bury explosives. Each of them had a bag full of gunpowder on his back.

Almost half of Qin Ming’s gunpowder stock was consumed in one breath.

However, the results were still very good. In the early morning, Qin Ming received the news that Chang Baishan had returned.

"Follow me."

He waved to the troops making a feint attack in the rear.

Qin Ming immediately took them up the mountain.

The army marches.

When the Yan army on the mountain saw Qin Ming coming towards them in a swagger, they immediately became agitated.

"kill!"

The deafening shouts and cries of killing filled the mountains.

The soldiers rushed down the mountain, ready to kill Qin Ming with unstoppable momentum.

It seems that the time is almost up.

Qin Ming ordered his men to take out the ignited bows and arrows filled with kerosene and aimed them at the locations where they had buried the explosives last night.

"Get ready, let go!"
