Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Previously, Daqian had intimidated some small countries around it through military confrontations and exercises.

So that they dare not continue to use those little tricks.

After becoming obedient, the people of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions no longer traded goods with these nomadic tribes in the north.

To show their loyalty, they also obediently handed over the railway operation rights of the Northwest Frontier.

This also caused many conflicts between Qin Ming and the major wealthy families in the northwest, but fortunately they were all resolved in the end.

After this series of events, even the nomadic tribes felt that it was impossible for the Western Regions to establish contact with them again.

But now Yelu Sheng actually said that he had obtained information from them again.

Facing the two doubtful people, Yelu Sheng whispered:

"They certainly don't dare to continue providing weapons and equipment, but the relationship between us and them hasn't changed. At least for now, the thirty-six nations in the Western Regions are still friendly to us, and we can share some intelligence."

"Who wants to maintain a relationship with these spineless people?"

Faced with such a chameleon-like country, Qilian Wanshan simply looks down on it.

He spat directly, with no disguising the contempt on his face.

"You guy, it's already this late and you still care about it. The most important thing is to win this kind of thing."

Compared to him, Hongdu Lan is much better.

He quickly accepted what Yelu Sheng said.

He directly opened the letter in the other party's hand and pulled Qilian Wanshan to read it together.

After reading it, his expression suddenly changed drastically.

"Just a few tanks and that kind of heavy firepower can withstand a huge army?"

"At the time, they were using blank ammunition. If you were hit, you were doomed. It was quite different from actual war. If a real fight broke out, the lethality wouldn't be this terrifying."

Yelu Sheng was unwilling to say words that would boost others' morale and undermine his own prestige, so he spoke to comfort the two of them.

Qilian Wanshan's face also turned gloomy. If Qin Ming really had such strength, they would all be sending themselves to death no matter how many people went.

"Do you suspect that their purpose in leaving no defenses like this is to evenly distribute that heavy firepower to every attack route and then launch a general attack on us?"

"Yes."

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Yelu Sheng had to tell them the gap in firepower between the northern tribes and Qin Ming.

Only in this way can they have a chance of survival.

"If it's really as you say, it will be too difficult for us to defeat them. I suggest we arrange a group of teams to go and fight them first. If we can defeat them, we will fight them. If we can't, we will retreat first."

Hong Dulan's decision is still relatively conservative.

Qilian Wanshan frowned slightly and said:

"If we withdraw, how will we explain to Urida?"

Hearing his naive question, Yelu Sheng and Hong Dulan looked at each other and both shook their heads slowly.

"At this point, what's the point of making promises? As long as we can save our lives, it's good enough. Do we really have to spend all our energy to stop Qin Ming for two months?"

"Yeah, if we really can't win, there's no need to serve the Shenmu Kingdom."

"That's fine."

After the three of them discussed it, they began to arrange their troops and gathered nearly 30,000 elite soldiers.

Prepare to go to the northern border of Daqian to make contact with Qin Ming's troops.

On the other side, Qin Ming's first batch of front-line troops have been deployed to the battlefield.

Qin Ming, Wu Qingye and Ye Shoujiang came to the first line of defense together.

"Your Majesty, let me guard this line of defense."

Wu Qingye hadn't fought a large-scale battle with them for a long time.

The two sides always fought and retreated, and there was no direct conflict with swords.

After fighting for so long, Wu Qingye was feeling very angry, and he could use this opportunity to vent it.

After he finished speaking, Ye Shoujiang and Wu Qingye both looked at Qin Ming, waiting for his arrangements.

Qin Ming waved his hand slowly.

"This line of defense is not for a formal battle with them. Let General Ye guard it."

"Not for formal combat, what does that mean?"

After hearing this, Wu Qingye was a little surprised.

They deployed a lot of troops here and even prepared dozens of tanks equipped with heavy firepower.

It can definitely withstand thousands of troops. Even if the entire front line is pushed out, the enemy can be beaten and flee in panic.

"General Ye should have understood what I am going to do."

Qin Ming turned his head and looked at Ye Shoujiang, a smile appearing on his lips.

"Three fronts?... I get it."

Ye Shoujiang nodded as expected.

What Qin Ming needed him to do was not to push it forward directly, but to leave some hope for those northern tribes.

Only when they can't guess what's going on with you, or even think they can invade Daqian.

Qin Ming's second and third fronts will advance directly and strangle them completely.

And the first front line that lured them in the first place will turn around and completely trap them.

"This mission can only be done by General Ye."

Qin Ming patted Wu Qingye on the shoulder.

"You will command the second front. Just go all out. I can give you unlimited ammunition."

Hearing Qin Ming say this, Wu Qingye was suddenly ecstatic. He had been looking forward to such a war for a long time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wu Qingye immediately turned around to prepare for the deployment of the second front.

But Ye Shoujiang, who wanted to come to the old city and had profound experience in the Northern War, suddenly said to Qin Ming:

"Your Majesty, is there any deeper meaning behind this, commanding the most important third front?"

"A trapped beast will still fight. I am your insurance."

Ye Shoujiang's heart moved and he immediately understood.

"clear."

Soon, under the cover of night, a force of tens of thousands of people gathered in the wilderness.

"Are you all ready?"

"almost."

"We've divided into several teams to scout them from different directions. I don't believe their battle lines can be deployed so tightly."

"lets go."

Yelu Sheng, Hong Dulan and Qilian Wanshan each led a dozen cavalry teams and dispersed according to their respective directions.

Explore Qin Ming's frontline troops.

The person they will face tonight is Ye Shoujiang.

As the most famous general in Daqian who is good at leading troops, Qin Ming chose him to command because among the three of them, only Ye Shoujiang can create a situation that the other side can barely defeat.

In this way, Qilian Wanshan, Hong Dulan and the other two can be completely lured over and caught in a trap.

After learning about these situations, Ye Shoujiang arranged more than 30 messenger soldiers to send telegrams to him in advance.

That night they would use the telegraph to communicate with Ye Shoujiang constantly, allowing Ye Shoujiang to control the battlefield situation.

Similarly, the pressure Ye Shoujiang will be under tonight will be extremely enormous.

After all, he was facing three experienced and powerful generals from the three royal tents.

As the night grew darker, the cat-and-mouse game between them quietly began at some point.
