Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

However, while doing hard labor in various places, more than half of them were killed for causing trouble.

That's why only so few people were sent here now.

But even so, they still refused to obey discipline.

"It seems that you guys are not willing to accept my toast and will have to drink the wine for punishment. Come here!"

Seeing this, Linghu Yuan was not prepared to waste time talking to them.

He waved to the rear and a group of soldiers rushed up immediately, forcibly put shackles on the death row prisoners and drove them out of the barracks.

Soon, this group of death row prisoners were taken into the swamp. After walking for nearly three hours, Linghu Yuan led them back to the area where they discovered the landmines.

"There is a minefield here. You will cross it. If you survive, you will be pardoned when you return."

"If anyone can dig out their mines and hand them over to me, I can pardon their death penalty on the spot. In addition, I can reward them with thirty taels of silver."

Before coming here, Qian Wanli gave instructions to Linghu Yuan.

If you have the opportunity, be sure to take the opponent's mines and study them carefully.

When the two sides were fighting, they often liked to collect Daqian's weapons and equipment.

The manufacturing process and technology of these things far surpass those of countries in the Western Regions.

They can take it back and disassemble it. After studying it thoroughly, they can put it into their arsenal for production, thereby enhancing themselves.

But unfortunately, the number of people they have is simply not enough.

Pushing and shoving, the death row prisoners walked forward cursing.

They scrambled for some rotten long sticks in the swamp, preparing to use them to explore the way.

Behind them were soldiers holding knives, guns, sticks and clubs, forcing them to keep moving forward.

boom!

There was a loud explosion, which stirred up a large amount of mud in the swamp and splashed all over everyone around.

When they turned around, they saw that a death row prisoner had already been killed in the explosion.

Even the body was not found.

The killing range of the landmine is very large, as far as more than ten feet.

A feeling of terror instantly struck everyone's heart, and cold sweat broke out on everyone's back.

"I quit, just kill me."

Even with the sticks in their hands, they still could not escape the fate of being killed.

A death row inmate had a mental breakdown.

He threw down the wooden stick and turned around to fight with the soldiers behind him.

But these officers and soldiers were not afraid of him running away, as the sound of a musket was heard.

When the smoke cleared, the prisoner who was about to escape fell to the ground, breathing rapidly, and died soon after.

"This is your last chance. If you make it through the minefield alive, everything will be over. If you die here, it will be considered a sacrifice for your country. Why not do it?"

Linghu Yuan stood behind him, his tone calm but unquestionable.

"There's no way you'll have children."

"You bastard, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost."

……

Although the death row prisoners cursed harshly, they now had no way out.

I had no choice but to make up my mind and walk forward cursing.

However, when he left, he pointed at Linghu Yuan's nose and kept insulting him, using foul and unpleasant words.

Linghu Yuan sneered.

Continue to follow from a distance.

He didn't take the insults from the crowd to heart.

As long as he completes the task assigned by Qian Wanli, it doesn't matter even if these death row prisoners bully him.

Just get them started though.

However, the successive explosions still made everyone at the scene feel terrified.

In less than half an hour, all the more than 300 death row prisoners they brought were dead.

None of them came back.

What made Linghu Yuan most uncomfortable was that they didn't even dig out a single enemy mine.

I don’t know what methods Daqian used.

Although some death row prisoners discovered the opponent's mines, the moment their hands touched the mines, they exploded, leaving them no chance to dig them out.

"General, what should we do if we run out of men?"

"Why don't you go back and continue to request more people?"

Soon, two centurions came to Linghu Yuan and reported with grim expressions.

After two consecutive days of experience, they ran back and forth, but in the end they didn't achieve any results at all.

As of now, they haven't even finished clearing the mines.

This made everyone feel depressed.

Facing Daqian's troops, there seemed to be a sense of powerlessness surrounding them.

Of course, this may also be a problem of mentality.

Originally, when they faced the attack of the Datong Sect, many of them bravely charged forward on the battlefield.

But since learning that Daqian was going to join the war, no one dared to say that they could kill the Datong sect with their own hands.

After all, this was supported by the legendary Emperor Daqian.

Who dares to say they can win?

As if sensing their fear, Linghu Yuan sighed slowly as he looked at their exhausted expressions.

"Let's arrange for a few people to go back and report the news. The brothers are tired after a night, so let them stay where they are and rest."

"Yes."

……

When the Western Region coalition forces were active.

On the other hand, great turmoil was also taking place in Western Shu.

That day, Liu Qin personally came to Fuyao City in their northern border area.

There is someone here whom he has always wanted to meet, and that person is Cao Chuan.

"General Cao, I have long heard of your great name."

When the carriage arrived at the city gate, Liu Qin got off the carriage and saw a group of people standing in front of the city gate waiting.

The leading general, with an extraordinary bearing and wearing black armor, walked up to Liu Qin with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, clasped his hands together and said:

"I have met His Majesty."

Generally speaking, generals in Daqian had to kneel when they met the emperor.

However, Western Shu was just a small country, and their emperor was not Qin Ming of Daqian.

In addition, Cao Chuan came here to help them.

So just bowing and clasping your hands together is considered a greeting.

When the senior officials beside Liu Qin saw this situation, they immediately clicked their tongues and looked dissatisfied.

Some people even wanted to correct Cao Chuan.

Liu Qin naturally knew what they were thinking.

There is no need to create any complications at this time.

They were just used to staying in the imperial court and thought they were high-ranking officials wherever they went and needed to be flattered.

Only Liu Qin really lowered his head and went out to engage in diplomacy. He also knew that Western Shu was just an insignificant place among the surrounding dynasties.

So he immediately raised his hand to stop everyone's actions, got off the carriage himself, walked up to Cao Chuan, shook his hands and said:

"Thank you very much for your support, General Cao Chuan. Thanks to you, Western Shu was able to stop Changsun Huo's troops."

"I am only following your Majesty's orders. You don't have to be so polite."

Cao Chuan immediately waved his hand and unexpectedly did not accept the promise.
