Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Yan Ziqiong said solemnly:

"He is in charge of the imperial court's intelligence agency, called the Imperial Astronomical Bureau."

"The three chiefs of the Imperial Astronomical Department are unrivaled in martial arts, and the department is filled with numerous experts."

"If they knew that Prince Taiping had been captured, they might have revealed the power of the imperial court in advance and come to rescue him."

"Qin Tiansi..."

Qin Ming's expression became unusually serious.

Previously, when he was mediating the martial arts disputes in Daqian, he had already witnessed how powerful the martial artists were.

His martial arts skills are just the product of receiving initiation from the Luo Sect.

When you really meet those peerless masters who have secluded themselves from the world, you still feel a little stretched.

In addition, he needed to coordinate the battlefield and it was impossible for him to stay with King Taiping all the time.

Once the head of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau brings people here to rescue King Taiping, there is a real possibility that they will succeed.

"You said those three chiefs are unrivaled in martial arts. How do they compare to my skills?"

"They are on par with each other. If they bring their men with them, you won't be able to stop them."

Yan Ziqiong said seriously.

Her strength is not up to Qin Ming and Si Shou's level, but she still has the vision of a princess.

Naturally, you can predict the situation.

"It seems Yan Zheng has made plans long ago and wants to throw this hot potato to us."

Qin Ming raised a smile and spoke slowly.

"Yes, I think it's better to just kill him."

On Yan Ziqiong's side, only Qin Ming and Chang Baishan are strong enough, but it is impossible for the two of them to guard her all the time.

When she gave this advice, Qin Ming smiled.

"Don't worry, someone can stop them."

"Who?"

"You'll know when the time comes. It's too early for that person to show up now. As for the Imperial Heavenly Division, we can let the secret guards fight them off."

Qin Ming's various troops, both overt and covert forces, have arrived.

Naturally, there is no need to worry about the opponent's sneak attack.

Hearing that he had made arrangements, Yan Ziqiong felt relieved.

At this time, Chang Baishan, who had gone to reorganize the troops, came to Qin Ming.

"Your Majesty, the battle has begun at Huangpo Mountain."

"Come on, let's go take a look."

Qin Ming's troops arrived one after another.

Although Yan Zheng wanted the Yan Dynasty to lose these Tiger Roar Guards at Huangpo Mountain, their fighting power was still strong in this era.

Even if they entered Huangpo Mountain, they might not be completely wiped out by Qin Ming's troops.

So Qin Ming arranged three groups of troops.

The first batch is stationed inside Huangpo Mountain, and will be followed by a batch of reinforcements.

The last batch was him and Chang Baishan.

After the war began, continue to send more troops to encircle them.

It can be said that except for Wu Qingye, most of Qin Ming's combat power entered Huangpo Mountain.

This also made Wu Qingye's pressure extremely enormous.

He needed to tie down Yan Zheng, who had hundreds of thousands of troops on the front battlefield, to give the troops at Huangpo Mountain enough time to surround them from all directions and annihilate the Huxiao Guards.

Half a day later, Qin Ming and Chang Baishan arrived at the Huangpo Mountain battlefield with the last 30,000 elite troops.

There are corpses everywhere here.

The ground was full of large craters left by shells.

Hundreds of bunkers on the hillside were in ruins, with only a few scattered forts in the back row remaining, still pouring down a continuous barrage of fire.

The Tiger Roar Guards fearlessly carried the large shield and withstood the enormous pressure, almost destroying their first line of defense.

"As expected of an elite division, they can still march forward bravely despite such losses. It's a pity they haven't met a wise leader yet."

Qin Ming stood at the back and couldn't help but sigh.

They have blocked the last escape route.

All the troops of Xiao Tianzhu and Wanyan Tielu were trapped in Huangpo Mountain.

This is Qin Ming's invitation to a death fight.

Yan Zheng happily accepted the appointment, and this was the result.

"Your Majesty, the Tiger Roar Guards have reached the second line of defense."

At this time, the sharp-eyed Chang Baishan had noticed that something was wrong.

The fortress at the foot of the mountain was breached, and the next step was the attack on the mountainside.

Qin Ming did not arrange any conventional firepower forces in the mountainside area.

The reason is also very simple.

The vegetation here is lush and the population is sparse.

If a flame appears, it may set the mountain on fire.

Therefore, he only arranged a group of cold weapon troops and let Ye Shoujiang fight with them here.

However, this arrangement also made the enemy aware of the weaknesses of Qin Ming's troops.

They all knew something was wrong.

Especially Xiao Tianzhu.

"Brother Wanyan, have you figured out anything?"

He was in charge of the command below and quickly came to Wanyan Tielu to discuss with him.

Wanyan Tielu was also a veteran of the battlefield, so he naturally saw what Xiao Tianzhu was thinking.

"Use fire, but don't make it too obvious, so as not to lose their morale."

Wanyan Tielu's methods are very sophisticated.

This war was originally intended to pit the imperial army against Qin Ming in Huangpo Mountain.

These 100,000 Tiger Roar Guards are willing to fight to the death even against Qin Ming's 30,000 to 40,000 troops.

If only they could all die here.

But no matter how hard they try, they cannot say this openly until they have lost everything.

Therefore, we must pay attention to the method when doing things.

For example, what Xiao Tianzhu said about setting fire to the mountain and indiscriminate attacks.

It can be done, but not so obviously.

Once the Tiger Roar Guards knew that these two generals did not take their lives seriously, their morale would definitely be affected.

After hearing Wanyan Tielu's advice, Xiao Tianzhu immediately understood.

"Don't worry, I've already arranged for someone to do it. They'll do it cleanly, and they won't give anyone any evidence, nor will they cause you any worries."

"Ah."

After the two of them unanimously agreed on this decision.

Soon, sporadic flames appeared on the mountain.

The Tiger Roar Guards who were still fighting immediately discovered something was wrong.

"on fire!"

They shouted loudly and tried to retreat quickly.

But by this time, all the bushes on the lower hillside were on fire.

The Tiger Roar Guards who ventured across the wall of fire were instantly burned to a crisp.

"What...is going on?"

Many people with combat experience have already begun to react.

But there are more and more places where fires are breaking out.

Qin Ming's troops had already retreated towards the mountain.

Seeing the flames burning, Chang Baishan said angrily:

"You don't have to do this even if it means you're going to die, you bastard Xiao Tianzhu!"

"He will certainly do that."

Compared with the angry Chang Baishan, Qin Ming showed an expression as if he had known this would happen.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?"

Chang Baishan looked at the distant mountains in panic.

There are still many Daqian troops there.

Qin Ming smiled and said:

"Simple, just keep the fire burning."

"Burn it?"

Chang Baishan was suddenly startled and instantly thought of something.

"Your Majesty, have you calculated this?"

Qin Ming didn't say anything, just stared at the mountainside.

Suddenly, a violent explosion resounded throughout Huangpo Mountain.

Bang bang bang!

Countless explosives were ignited by the fire in the mountains!

The Tiger Roar Guards trapped on the mountainside were instantly swallowed up.

However, the fire ignited by Xiao Tianzhu was blocked by the horizontal gap created by the explosives and could no longer burn up the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Tianzhu's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. He clenched his fists in extreme anger and said through gritted teeth:

"Qin Ming...you even calculated this?"
