Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

When the Wu family took action, the Yun family, the Ouyang family and the Hong family in the northern part of Yan Dynasty also began to move.

As Qin Ming expected, all the major families began to shrink their sphere of influence.

Strive for safety!

However, this kind of security may not necessarily allow them to gain an advantage.

The reason is also very simple.

In comparison, Qin Ming, who had a variety of technologies and countless supplies, recovered much faster than them.

The longer they wait, the more powerless they become.

Several major families in the Yan Dynasty naturally knew this.

But they dragged on, still dreaming that they could take over Daqian.

Little did they know that at this time, a tight net had already been laid on the Wo Island and the Jiangnan port.

Finally, on the tenth day.

Qin Ming called Chenpi to his front.

Although the time was short, just by visual inspection, the logistics soldiers under Qin Ming had already discovered that the land of Yan Dynasty was indeed stronger than that of Daqian.

This may be due to geographical and climatic reasons.

"Your Majesty, you are looking for me."

"You've been doing well lately. Keep planting. I need to go back. Chang Baishan should be back in the next few days. You two will guard this place and maintain trade."

Qin Ming slowly explained the task to him.

It has been several months since I left the court. It's time to go back and take a look.

It’s a good opportunity to meet the troops coming from Yan Dynasty.

"Are you leaving?"

Chen Pi heard the intention of leaving in Qin Ming's words.

Qin Ming nodded and said:

"Wait another month. If the Yan Dynasty hasn't sent anyone to negotiate with you after a month, you will build a concrete wall around the farmland outside the sea outpost to protect our farmland."

"One month? Peace talks!?"

Chen Pi listened to Qin Ming's arrangements. The first few sentences were fine, but the following sentences became more and more outrageous.

If this battle could be fought in a month, Chenpi really couldn't think of any method to use.

"You're a little late. I don't know what happened during this time."

Looking at Chenpi who looked honest, Qin Ming waved his hand.

Chen Pi had resolutely led tens of thousands of troops to fight against the reinforcements from the Ouyang family.

During this period, Qin Ming's secret guard intelligence point was destroyed by the Four Pillars of the State, making it difficult to transmit intelligence.

This made Chenpi have to fight with his head covered during this period.

While fighting, he even rushed to Qin Ming.

"Okay, go ahead and do your work. Tell me later if you have any plans."

Chenpi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Ming said goodbye to him and did not walk the same way he came after getting on the boat.

Instead, it went around from the open sea area on the east coast to the west coast.

A few days later, Cao Chuan rushed into the tent from outside and excitedly shouted to Ye Shoujiang:

"Old Ye, His Majesty is here."

The two have experienced many wars and have a good relationship. Cao Chuan can now call him Lao Ye.

Ye Shoujiang glanced at him and said:

"You're kidding again. Your Majesty is busy with affairs and is still trying to see if the farming results are effective on the East Coast. How could he be here?"

"It's really here! Just look if you don't believe me!"

As he spoke, Cao Chuan walked out of the door in two steps and pulled Qin Ming, who was talking to Heifu, in.

"His Majesty!?"

The moment Ye Shoujiang saw Qin Ming, he was stunned.

He quickly stepped forward and saluted.

"General Ye, there's no need to be so polite. I'm just here to help the craftsmen make a few molds and then I'll leave."

Qin Ming came here this time to personally supervise the mold production.

His howitzers and cannons were never delivered to the West Coast due to accuracy issues.

There is no need to worry about accuracy issues within the Daqian Dynasty, and there is no need to worry about the East Coast with Qin Ming in control.

But that's not the case on the West Coast. If this powerful weapon deviates even slightly, it is likely to explode in their own position.

The damage caused was beyond their ability to bear.

So before going back this time, Qin Ming came here in person and prepared to work with the craftsmen to make the molds for these weapons temporarily.

"Great! I've heard your new weapon is powerful!"

Cao Chuan is in charge of logistics. Any new weapons will first pass through his hands, so he has tried many good things.

When I heard that a new weapon had appeared, I was immediately excited.

"By the way, there are still some things I need to tell you."

Qin Ming remembered what he had told Chen Pi, so he told it again to the three of them.

Hearing this, Heifu quickly guessed what Qin Ming was going to do.

"Your Majesty, do you intend to crush their naval power and then allow us to take action and force the Yan Dynasty to negotiate?"

"Yes, but don't fight too hard this time. The Four Pillars hold a lot of power. If they get angry, it won't be good for anyone, just like you did last time."

Qin Ming's words made several people blush.

Last time, we managed to hold out for several days, fighting the enemy until our ammunition ran out, and in the end we had no choice but to engage in hand-to-hand combat, which meant we pushed the enemy into a corner.

"We remember."

After explaining everything, Qin Ming replenished some fuel needed for the internal combustion engine and steam engine on the west coast, and then took a speedboat to Daqian.

Because it is a powered speedboat, there is no need to worry about the movement of the army.

Qin Ming's ship sailed alone according to the nautical chart and dealt with two waves of pirates on the way.

In less than ten days, they returned to Daqian and arrived at the Jiangnan port.

Here, Qin Ming met an old acquaintance.

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty."

Seeing Qin Ming getting off the boat in a dusty state, Wu Shizhong immediately stepped forward and led all the officials from Jiangnan to greet him.

"How did you come."

"Prime Minister Chen said I was familiar with the Jiangnan Port, and since the war was imminent, he asked me to come here to manage the logistics."

Wu Shizhong explained.

He has now been promoted from a local official to an important official in the imperial court.

Since then, he has become Qin Ming's right-hand man.

Because fighting against the troops from the Yan Dynasty was a big deal, Chen Shimao arranged for Wu Shizhong, whom he trusted enough, to come.

"You've been traveling so long, would you like to take a rest first?"

Noticing Qin Ming's tired look, Wu Shizhong spoke tentatively.

Qin Ming nodded and followed him into the post station next to the port.

The place has been cleaned up, and the chef from Lingnan Restaurant is waiting here in advance, waiting to prepare some delicious food for Qin Ming after he gets off the boat.

However, Qin Ming had no appetite at this time. He waved to the officials from Jiangnan who were accompanying him, signaling them to leave the room, and then he started talking about business with Wu Shizhong.

"Is the cannon ready?"

"It's already made. Just let me know how much you need."

Daqian's productivity is very high. After Qin Ming delivered the drawings to Guan Yue and Chen Shimao in advance.

They started the military factory and helped Qin Ming produce a batch of weapons and ammunition.

"Take thirty cannons and two thousand rounds of ammunition."

"Arrange a few fishing boats. I want to defeat all the Yan troops in one fell swoop."

It is unknown how many people there are in the enemy's army.

But if they still think that Daqian can be bullied as easily as before, they are wrong!

Wu Shizhong was stunned for a moment.

"This……"
