"You Qin people should take the money and talk about other things. Up to now, I haven't seen any real gold." Xiang Yan said angrily.

The representative of Qin State Bank shook his head helplessly.

The reason why the Qin State Bank is so concerned about the Chu State navy is that the Chu State navy’s taxation is of considerable interest. This had to make Qin Guo's bank pay more attention.

On a small hill twenty miles south of Linzi in Qi State. Tian Heng and his advisors and generals were on the hillside looking at the main force of the Qi army that was advancing in the distance. The main force is rapidly advancing southward.

"We must support the Qi army in front as soon as possible." Tian Heng said while looking at the simple map.

"Lord. We have no situation ahead. We should deploy reconnaissance troops as soon as possible." A general of Qi State said at this time.

"En. We need rapid force deployment." Tian Heng said.

"These things can only be done by cavalry." Tian Heng said.

"However, our army, the cavalry unit suffered heavy losses, the number is less than two thousand. The cavalry has insufficient horses. The combat effectiveness is not strong." A cavalry officer stood up and said.

"This. Reinforce as much as possible." Tian Heng said.

The Chu army moved forward quickly. However, the Qi army was unable to expand quickly, and the reason for the inability to expand was that the roads of Qi were in poor condition, and with the advanced equipment of Qi army. The pressure on logistics is increasing. Under such circumstances, it is very difficult for the Qi army to quickly reinforce it. The Qi army launched military operations under extremely difficult circumstances. Tian Heng himself didn't know how many odds he could win such a war.

At this time, the Qi army troops on the front line were trying their best to resist the ferocious attack of the Chu army.

"Woo." On a city at a mountain intersection. The howling shells were quickly bombarding the city.

"Boom." A sound of explosion exploded on the edge of the city.

"Boom." There was another sound.

"Damn Chu people, they can't fight like this if they have artillery." A Qi army captain said with a bandage.

"Let's retreat." Captain Qi Jun said at the request.

"Retreat?" a lieutenant colonel Qi Jun asked.

"Yes. Sir. We can't hold on to this city at all if we persist like this. The people of Chu have cannons. And we don't even have cannons, only rifles, so we can't fight this battle at all." The captain said.

"If you don't stop these Chu people, Qi people will not have Qi country." The lieutenant colonel shouted loudly.

"So, I can't retreat this time. I can't retreat anymore," the lieutenant colonel said firmly.

"This city must be held firmly. To block the forward of Chu Jun." The lieutenant colonel said loudly.

"Yes. Sir." The captain looked at the lieutenant colonel. As the Chu army used artillery and a small group of elite troops to fight, the Chu army accelerated the pace of advancement, and their forwards had already approached Qi's golden origin. They are less than a hundred miles away from the gold producing area. Such a distance is already very dangerous for the Qi army. The officers of the Qi army naturally knew the significance of the army of gold origin, so they decided to stick to this city. If this city is lost, the passage to the gold origin will be opened. The Chu army will quickly occupy the gold producing area of ​​the Qi army. Gold, an important measurement resource for commercial trade, will be in the hands of the Chu people.

"How do you say it, sir." A soldier with a bandage on his head asked anxiously.

"Our sir is going to stay here forever." The captain reluctantly sat down and said.

"What?" the soldiers exclaimed in surprise.

"Stick to it." The captain said helplessly.

"We have less than two hundred people. It is meaningless to fight like this," the wounded soldier said.

"Yeah. Let's retreat. Only by constantly retreating can we get more support from the brothers." The wounded soldier said.

"I think so too. But the sir is going to stay here forever." The captain looked up and said. The situation of the Qi army simply cannot hold here. In this direction, there are about a thousand Qi army soldiers holding their positions, but now there are less than two hundred soldiers, and the loss of force is extremely serious. Chu people continue to use it. Under the cannon bombardment. And under the impact of countless infantry. The Qi army could only continue to retreat and compress his defenses. But without any reinforcements, the Qi army can only continue to lose large tracts of land. The soldiers of the Qi army fought less and less. Under such battles, the morale of the Qi army was low. The will to fight is already very low.

"The Qi army in front really does not live or die." A Chu army general was standing on the chariot, checking the situation with a single-scope.

"If they want to hold on like this, we will bombard them with artillery." The general of the Chu army said at this time.

"Order our artillery. Bombard them." The general commanded loudly.

"Let it go." A gun master of Chu State waved his arm loudly.

"Boom." A shell shot out directly. The artillery shot out directly.

"Wow." The sharp sound of the cannonball shot directly through the air and fell into the city. The city was already bombarded in no way. The Chu army gathered a large number of artillery shells, and they had enough artillery shells to occupy the city.

The generals of the Chu army also gradually realized the importance of artillery. In the past, it took a lot of manpower and material resources to conquer the city, but now it has become very easy. Just use the cannon to bombard violently. You can easily open the opponent's city. Think about it, previous siege operations required a lot of manpower, but now, those rammed earth walls have become so weak in front of the cannon shells. The infantry has also become extremely simple. Line up. After the artillery bombardment is over and the dense smoke has not dissipated, a swift siege operation can quickly occupy a city or a position where the Qi army is holding.

In fact, this is also the case in the region. The advancement of weapons quickly laid down the position of artillery. The fire position of the artillery has been determined. If a country’s army is not equipped with artillery, but only infantry is used for combat, it is easy to be defeated, and the deterrent effect of artillery is also very strong. Especially those powerful artillery, enough for the Qi army soldiers to quickly disintegrate their positions.

"They have cannons. We only have rifles. We can't fight this battle at all." A soldier curled up and hid behind a piece of rubble.

"Boom." There was a sound of a shell exploding. Several Qi army soldiers fell in a pool of blood. The soldiers of the Qi army can only passively get bombed. But can't move anything.

"Papa." At the ground contact center in the south of Qin State. A radio operator is receiving a radio communication code from the Pegasus.

"Sir. The content of the telegram just received. The radio operator handed the content of the received telegram to the other party.

"They have come down. The people of the Mo family are just guarding them from a distance. The prime minister can't leave, and he doesn't want to leave. What does this mean?" The lieutenant colonel looked at the telegram and said.

The other officers shook their heads to express their incomprehension.

"Repost these information to Xianyang. Not a word." said the lieutenant colonel.

"Yes. Sir." The radio operator then began to make a telegram, and then quickly sent the telegram.

"I'm sorry, princess. I can't provide you with the information in this regard." In Xianyang of the Qin State, Yingyu quickly found Wang Jian and asked Wang Jian to provide the content of the telegram they received from Shangwen.

"I'm sorry. Princess. Your mood. I can understand. But." Wang Jian said regretfully.

"Do you have an order to do this?" Yingyu asked. Yingyu desperately wanted to know Shangwen's current situation.

"This is the king's order. We can only do this. This is good for the princess, you," Wang Jian said.

"Okay. Okay." Yingyu knew that she couldn't ask anything. Even if she did it, she wouldn't have any advantage at all, and she didn't know Shangwen's situation. To do so would only waste her time.

"Okay. I'm going to find my father." With that, Ying Yu immediately turned and left. Quickly left the staff.

"I just asked my father and king, I don't believe it, he doesn't care about this son-in-law." Yingyu quickly got into the car.

"No." Yingyu stopped again at this time.

"My father gave the order, surely he didn't want me to know anything?" Ying Yu thought about what happened just now.

"If." Ying Yu thought of Shang Wen's accident.

"No." Yingyu immediately shook his head.

"Can't go back to the palace. My father won't tell me. But who knows Shangwen's situation again. By the way. Meng Yi." Yingyu immediately thought of someone. This is Shangwen's good helper. Meng Yi, Shang Wen's matter, Meng Yi shouldn't be ignorant. So Yingyu immediately went to Meng Yi.

"Boom." Yingyu rushed into Shangwen's office as always.

But Meng Yi is not there.

"Princess." The assistant behind followed closely behind.

"Where is your prime minister?" Yingyu asked.

"Conference room. A meeting is taking place," the assistant said.

immediately. Yingyu immediately rushed into the meeting room.

"Boom." There was a loud opening of the door. Qin's minister and Meng Yi both looked at Yingyu who rushed in in surprise. Yingyu has loose hair.

"You all go out, if I have to ask." Ying Yu said.

"Hurry up." Yingyu roared impatiently.

"Wow." There was a voice. The ministers left quickly.

"Do you know about Shangwen?" Yingyu asked immediately after the last minister left.

"What?" Meng Yi looked at Yingyu suspiciously.

"Shangwen. Shangwen's recent situation. Someone told me. Shangwen was discovered by the heavenly army. I don't know where? Tell me. Please tell me." Yingyu is about to collapse. She begged Meng Yi to tell her about Shang Wen.

"I. I really don't know about this. No one told me. Prime Minister, the current situation. No one. Really. Princess." Meng Yi told Yingyu helplessly.

"Ah." Yingyu looked at Meng Yi incredulously. And Meng Yi looked at Yingyu helplessly.
