Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

And now Elder Song is leading his men into the swamp area.

It is to bury these newly developed mines.

Their troops acted decisively and entered the swamp that night carrying hundreds of machine guns.

After obtaining the mechanism drawings of the Shenmu Kingdom, Qin Ming discovered a mechanism similar to a sled.

This mechanism is very simple to make. Just tie two boards to your feet and hold two sticks with the tops for leverage in your hands, and you can walk quickly in the muddy swamp.

Because this kind of skateboard does not have much technical content.

When he was setting up these institutions, he didn't even send the task to the court.

Instead, they directly used some factories of the Datong Sect to make it on the spot.

"Everyone, be careful. Don't engage in a fight with them. Our main mission this time is to bury all the mines as required."

Elder Song always does things for Qin Ming personally.

This time, he personally led everyone to slide across the swamp and came to the center of the swamp.

The name of the swamp here is Tianwuze. It gets this name because the swamp is always foggy and sunlight can hardly penetrate.

Only during the hours of the day when the sun is at its brightest do some herbalists dare to enter this swamp to collect herbs.

"That's it."

At this time, several scouts responsible for investigation came to Elder Song and spoke in a low voice.

They had mapped the area and were very familiar with it.

The Western Region Allied Forces have already stationed at the eastern edge of Tianwu Lake, pioneering the marching route and preparing to continue advancing.

Qin Ming's troops came from the west.

The middle area can be used as their buffer zone, and this buffer zone has now become a battleground.

Qin Ming must bury the mines in advance before the other party truly controls this middle area.

"Get ready, today's mission is three thousand."

Elder Song nodded and waved to everyone, and everyone took off the baskets on their backs.

Then, they retreated one by one in order, continuously laying mines.

This time, Elder Song brought three hundred people, and each person's mission was only ten mines.

In less than half an hour, the place was buried.

Several soldiers under his command came to Elder Song and asked curiously.

"Elder, is this all we've come here for?"

"That's all the tasks we've been assigned. Don't ask too many questions. Let's go."

Elder Song is very cautious in his work and will not do unnecessary things.

If they buried a few more mines here and affected Qin Ming's subsequent military deployment and marching route, it would be a serious crime.

Therefore, after completing the task assigned by Qin Ming, he prepared to leave.

Just at this moment, a few people suddenly emerged from the thick fog in the distance.

"who are you?"

These people squinted their eyes hard, trying to see through the thick fog and look towards this side.

No need to guess, he must be Qian Wanli's subordinate.

"Walk."

Elder Song did not stay any longer and quickly rowed away with his men on the wooden planks.

Qian Wanli's troops in the distance were also a little scared.

But they came here to investigate, so naturally they had to come up and see the situation.

"Come some people, something seems wrong."

As the crowd took one step forward and one step back, they approached the place where they had just seen the figure.

Everyone was stunned.

"No one."

"Are you dazzled?"

"There are definitely people. I just saw hundreds of them!"

A soldier patted his chest and spoke with great confidence, but his words aroused disdain from the people around him.

"There are many dead animals in this swamp, which has produced a lot of miasma. I think you may have inhaled too much miasma and are hallucinating."

"You're talking nonsense! I'm just sitting around doing nothing. Do I have to lie to you about military intelligence?"

"If you didn't see it, then you didn't see it. Search the surrounding area. If there's nothing, we'll return the way we came."

This group was lucky; they had come from a different direction when they came to investigate, and had come around the side to the minefield laid by the middle elder.

When returning along the same route, he didn't even step on the mines they had buried.

By some strange coincidence, the news was passed back to Qian Wanli.

"General, we explored some more areas today and planned a safe route."

In the tent, a centurion came to Qian Wanli holding a candle and drew a red line on the area he was exploring today.

"Why did you take a detour here?"

Qian Wanli had extensive battlefield experience and quickly realized that there was something wrong with their route.

"Nothing, just someone who inhaled too much miasma and seemed to be hallucinating. He told us there was someone over there, so I took the brothers to take a look."

"How's it going?"

"Oh, let me tell you, that guy is hallucinating. The brothers stood here for a long time and didn't see anyone, so they returned the same way."

Hearing what he said, Qian Wanli nodded slowly, and then changed his marching route.

"Since there's no problem, our army shouldn't go around in circles and just wade straight through here."

Qian Wanli didn't know.

The red line he drew was the minefield set by Qin Ming.

This is one of the best routes Qin Ming found after looking at the map and comparing it with many options.

Qin Ming threw some mines here only after he figured out that there was a high probability that the other party would pass by here.

No one expected that Qian Wanli won the prize in just one night.

"Let's check their movements again, and see how Ji Chongfa is doing."

At this time, Qian Wanli remembered that he had arranged it early on. Since Ji Chongfa went to Qin Ming's side, there has been no news from him.

I told him that if there was a chance, he had to report back every two days.

But he said nothing, not even a reply.

Could it be that he had infiltrated the other party's top management?

If that's the case, it's actually quite profitable.

Just as he was thinking in his heart.

A piece of news came quickly.

"General, the Shenmu Kingdom said they are sending new reinforcements. It seems their Highness is very dissatisfied with the Datong Sect."

"What? Why did they suddenly send reinforcements? Was it just because they were dissatisfied? Did they find out anything behind the scenes?"

Qian Wanli felt very puzzled about Hua Yunhong's behavior.

He naturally didn't know what had happened during this period, let alone that the other party had now set his sights on the Datong Sect.

"They said there would be about 100,000 more troops sent over."

"Um!?"

When he heard this number, Qian Wanli was stunned.
