Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"Of course not. This is for you to use to pass on information."

Qin Ming pointed at the fireworks high in the sky.

There are no tall buildings in this era.

The bright lights of fireworks can be heard over long distances.

"Each color represents a command, so that all the troops in the wilderness can be connected."

"It doesn't matter if we have fewer people, but we can quickly gather in this way, which will enable us to exert greater combat power."

Qin Ming spoke slowly, his face illuminated by the firelight.

A breeze blew, and Chang Baishan jumped up with sudden realization.

"Amazing! Amazing, Your Highness!"

He had long felt that given Qin Ming's temper, he would definitely not stay behind and guard.

But Chang Baishan couldn't guess what Qin Ming was doing.

So I have always been very angry.

Now that he finally had an answer, he was very excited.

"Just one more day, and my bright pearls will arrive in large quantities."

If Qin Ming wants his fireworks to emit different colors, he needs to put bright beads inside.

Bright beads are a general term, which actually refers to various metal elements.

Just add it to gunpowder to produce different colors.

However, many materials from this era are not very complete.

Many bright beads require Qin Ming to rub them by hand using basic materials.

This delayed progress.

After being urged by Chang Baishan today, Qin Ming was not going to waste any more time.

The next morning, Wan Shu delivered the things.

He said directly to Chang Baishan:

"Take your people and go to Song Dingsheng to ask for another batch of prisoners."

"Why bring prisoners?"

"They are the warriors who have no taboos. Tell them that if they win this battle, I will pardon their sins and bring them into the military camp to receive military pay."

Qin Ming sighed helplessly.

Xiao Tiance's methods are indeed good.

The withdrawal of the three guards brought tremendous pressure to Qin Ming.

This trip almost emptied my money with Dogecoin.

If he really couldn't defeat the Southern Barbarians on the battlefield, Qin Ming would accept it.

It happened that it was the people from within Daqian who took action and obstructed him time and time again.

He will settle this account with Xiao Tiance and Concubine Xiao Shufei behind him!

Of course, the premise is that this battle can be won.

"understood!"

Chang Baishan nodded immediately.

Soon, Qin Ming gathered an army of more than a thousand people and lined up in the military camp in a mighty manner.

Before leaving, Qin Ming found Wan Shu who came to deliver supplies.

"Can I buy on credit?"

The military camp is now emptied out, and he doesn't have much money to pay Wan Shu.

Just like the last batch of troops was sent out today, Qin Ming has not yet paid Wan Shu.

Of course, he didn't give it on purpose.

"Look at your dead body, no wonder Xiaoyue called you a hooligan!"

Wan Shu rolled his eyes at him.

She waited for the whole morning, but Qin Ming still didn't bring anyone to settle the bill with her.

As smart as she was, she had already guessed that Qin Ming had no money.

Look at this man who runs around to protect the border, even resorting to cheating and deceiving others, and still has the audacity to come and confront him.

Wan Shu's eyes were a little complicated.

"You must win, otherwise the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce will be closed down. Now everyone knows we are on your side."

Ever since Qin Ming, whether intentionally or unintentionally, revealed the connection between Lingnan Chamber of Commerce and himself to Xiao Tiance.

The Lingnan Chamber of Commerce has already boarded the pirate ship.

If Qin Ming lost the war, he would lose everything and be liquidated by the imperial court.

Their Lingnan Chamber of Commerce can't escape either.

"Afraid?"

Qin Ming saw Wan Shu's worry and suddenly smiled.

This was one of the few times he saw Wan Shu like this.

"gone."

Wan Shu snorted, turned around and left without looking back, only the tassels around her waist swayed backwards in the wind.

"When you defeat them, I'll come back and tell you a secret."

A gentle voice came.

Qin Ming's mouth corners slightly raised.

"It's just right. After we win this battle, I'll tell you a secret when we get back."

As soon as he finished saying this, he thought something was wrong.

What I said sounded like the protagonist on TV. Generally, people who say such things will never come back.

"set off!"

Qin Ming returned to the training ground, led his men out of the barracks, and headed towards Ningming Pass.

On the other side, outside Ningming Pass.

Nearly 30,000 barbarian warriors, covered in animal skins and sitting on the ground, were stationed here.

Leading this large army was a warrior from their largest group named Tuqi.

Originally, he only brought 10,000 people and planned to try to attack Ningming Pass.

But after actual contact, he found that Ningming Pass, as the most important pass among the three passes, had the least number of defenders.

A few days later, their other two large forces also sent letters.

Jingdong Pass and Chongzuo Pass are both heavily guarded.

But they heard a piece of news that there were not many defenders on Tuqi's side.

So we decided to gather at Ningming Pass and try our luck.

In fact, the three passes are far apart.

It would take two or three days for the news to get through.

However, with Xiao Tiance's deliberate spread, the news of Ningming Pass's weak defense was soon revealed to the barbarian troops.

This gives them the opportunity.

The leaders of the three armies are sitting together at this moment.

As the main attacking team here, Tuqi has a full understanding of this place.

He slowly said:

"I plan to attack from the flanks. I'll deploy some troops to attack their rear in batches. They're so few in number that they'll be exhausted. You two can then press forward from the front. How do you think?"

In the past few days of offense, Tuchi and Cao Chuan fought back and forth.

A large part of Caochuan's city wall was smashed, but the pass was still guarded as solid as a rock.

With minimal losses, they were constantly wearing down the Nanman soldiers.

If this goes on, Tucci will have no chance of winning.

After all, attacking a city requires several times the number of troops to capture it.

The Nanman tribe originally had no such idea.

But when we heard that the border defense at Daqian was going to be changed, we arranged for someone to come here specifically.

After arriving, they did not seize the opportunity to switch defense and were quickly beaten back.

There is no other way, we can only gather together, defeat Daqian’s weaknesses, grab some things, and make the trip worthwhile.

"No, what if other soldiers come to support us?"

The other two warrior leaders shook their heads.

They thought Tuqi's idea was stupid.

After all, we are deep behind enemy lines and have no backup. If we get caught, we will be dead.

But Tuqi smiled slightly at this time, shook his strong body, and whispered:

"Do you know why I did this? Actually, I recently arranged for several spies to enter Lingnan to investigate the situation, and they learned a shocking truth!"

"what?"

The other two looked at him in surprise.

At this time, Tuqi said slowly:

"There's a rumor about Ningming Pass. It's guarded by the Wuwei Battalion under the King of Qin. They don't follow the same path as the imperial court..."
