Wang Jingyin kept counting the number of troops mobilized by the Qin army. The four legions alone had 230,000 combat soldiers. This did not count the garrisons of various provinces, prefectures and counties, as well as a large number of united soldiers, village soldiers, militias, etc. If they were all gathered together, the entire Qin vassal war soldiers could mobilize at least 400,000, and the auxiliary soldiers of the township soldiers could summon more than 600,000, which was a real million army.

When Cheng Dezhen sent a horse to report, the Qin army in all prefectures and counties were gathering, and war horses were everywhere. Cheng Dezhen was really shocked. Even if the Qin army had to keep troops in garrison in various places, as long as the Qin army transferred one-third of the troops to attack, it would be 300,000.

In addition, the horses in Chengde Town also discovered that the Qin army had mobilized unimaginable firearms this time. The Iron Cavalry Army alone had three thousand flying thunder cannons. In the past two years, the Qin army has also built a pure firearms unit, a 5,000-man Shenji Army. One army has one thousand flying thunder cannons, and there are many crossbows and guns, which are completely a firearms unit. Moreover, they also have 15,000 horses, a firearm unit that runs no slower than cavalry.

Chengde discovered that the artillery troops of the Shenji Army and the Iron Cavalry Army, carrying a large number of artillery crossbows and chariots and horses, gathered from the camp near Yanjing and gathered towards Tianjin. It was obvious that they were going to follow the frozen rivers in Tianjin as a fast southward passage to transport the firearm troops southward.

Wang Jingyin and others were completely shocked. They didn't know that the Qin army did have many firearm troops. The thunder cannon was actually very simple to manufacture, which was simpler than a stone caster. It only required steel. The cannon was easy to make, but it was difficult to make gunpowder. Today's gunpowder weapons are not very powerful and consumed. Just firearms can only be dozens of kilograms of gunpowder. Moreover, firearms have to be used in a centralized scale to have lethality, and there is no effect when used alone. In recent years, the Qin army has continuously expanded the production of gunpowder, but basically they are supplied to the Bohai battlefield.

The result is that although there are extremely professional troops of the Shenji Army, the entire army now has tens of thousands of flying thunder cannons, but most of them have cannons without medicine. This time, Li Jing transferred the artillery troops of the Shenji Army and the Iron Cavalry Army to pull out the cannons, but in fact he didn't want to attack Chengde. Li Jing couldn't get it even if he wanted to fight, and these cannons didn't have much gunpowder. He just pulled it out and scared Chengdezhen. At the same time, he transported the cannons to Tianjin, and then the Shenji Army was about to be transferred to the Northeast, and most of the other cannons would be sent to Hebei, Shandong, and Jianghuai troops to be equipped.

However, this time, thousands of flying thunder cannons really scared Wang Jingyin.

After confirming that the Qin army was gathering in Tianjin, he immediately sent someone to send a message to Wang Qi, who had already set out on the road, saying that he would speed up his journey to Yanjing and reach a ceasefire agreement with the Qin army as soon as possible. If necessary, it would be fine to give in.

Wang Jingqi originally thought that Li Jing would not agree so easily, after all, Li Jing had already set up a stance, how could he give up easily?

But unexpectedly, Li Jing happily accepted his request for peace and quickly ordered the army to stop continuing the attack. The follow-up troops on the border also began to withdraw, and the mobilized rural soldiers, united soldiers and other auxiliary soldiers also retreated to their hometowns.

The Qin generals on the front line led the troops and horses all the way to the border, but immediately stopped the war horses and no one violated the order.

Li Cunxiao received a summoning from the King of Qin a few days ago. When he asked him to lead the Dragon Cavalry south to Hejian, he thought that the King of Qin was preparing to do a fake show and wanted to destroy Chengdezhen in one fell swoop. As a result, the King of Qin said that the plan was very successful and it was time to end. Therefore, he specially asked him to lead 5,000 dragon cavalry to go south, let them put on a full set of equipment, and show the appearance of the Qin army in front of the envoy of Chengde, showing the military power of the Qin army. To put it bluntly, the King of Qin gave him a task to pick up the peace envoys of Chengdezhen into the capital.

Standing outside Hejian City, Li Cunxiao suddenly wanted to lift his gun and jump over the horse, and led his five thousand dragon cavalry to rush up and cut all the envoys like cutting melons and vegetables. Then he led his subordinates to Shenzhou, Zhaozhou and Zhenzhou, and destroyed the thorn in his side in one fell swoop.

Although he understood that if he asked the King of Qin, the King of Qin would definitely have a lot of reasons such as strategies, plans, trade-offs and other reasons to reply to him, which means that it is not suitable for the virtue of the emperor at this time.

"Add peace, discuss peace, discuss a bird's peace!" Li Cunxiao spat in his heart, afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back, and there are no such things to be afraid of when fighting. Even if it's just a fight, even if Qin Fan is not in good condition now and his foundation is thin, the battle for the world is not like this. Everyone tightens their belts and endures them, and they will pass. They always think that this is good, that is good, and that is not so good.

He suddenly grabbed the horse's belly, turned his head, and rushed towards the south city of Hejian Fortress.

"Legislature Commander!"

"Huai'an County Duke!"

The officials and generals present did not expect him to do this and shouted behind him in a hurry. However, Li Cunxiao did not look back and had already ridden his horse and disappeared inside the city gate. The crowd looked at each other, laughing and crying.

On the same day, the eastern capital Luoyang.

Dongdu was left behind the government office. There were several fruits and snacks on the table, which were not available in previous years, all transported from Shandong. There were two men on both sides of the stone table, one with a fair face and a white face. The other had a hideous face and a scarred face. Next to them, there was a strong man in a square face, wearing a brocade robe and being a military chess referee.

If it weren't for the fact that there were guards wearing iron armor, holding guns and knives everywhere outside the house, there would be a leisurely sigh.

"Has Li Jing woke up from this dragon?" The old man with white faceless face picked up the jade cup in front of him, took a sip of red wine, and put the cup back on the table. When he spoke, his eyes seemed to have a smile, but there was a sharpness in his laughter, and he kept staring at the scar-faced man opposite him."

"I have been silent for nearly two years, and Li Jing has almost digested all the things I have swallowed before." Li Keyong looked back at the adoptive father, one of the three most powerful eunuchs in the lower world, and was sad for a while. The person who could make Yang Fuguang talk about was naturally amazing. Li Jing, who had been very low-key after the Battle of Daibei, suddenly had another move. And it was a huge move, with the whole nation mobilized, all kinds of soldiers gathered, and the auxiliary soldiers and civilians also recruited them. This unexpected situation was shocking the whole world.

Qin Fan's actions made all towns in the world have to concentrate their attention.

Li Jing is too strong, and has expanded too quickly in recent years. Last time, Li Jing annexed the two towns of Datong and Yanmen. Going forward, he annexed the two towns of Lulong and Yiwu. Then he also annexed Cangjing Town, annexed the towns of Ganhua Town, and annexed the towns of Taining Town, and seized half of Huainan, indirectly controlling the three towns of Tianping, Yicheng and Xuanwu.

Every time he was dispatched, the Qin army would return with a full load.

Facing such an oriental dragon, no one can ignore it.

Now that Li Jing has sent troops again, and the scale of mobilization is larger than every time, this makes people worry. Perhaps this time, Li Jing is no longer satisfied with just annexing one or two vassal states at once, and maybe he has a bigger plan and a bigger appetite.

"Is Li Jing's goal really just Chengdezhen?"

"In theory, Li Jing's goal may indeed be Chengde, and next is Wei Bo. These are the only two vassal states that still exist in Hebei. Li Jing had long wanted to sweep Hebei. In this way, whether it was moving west or going south, Li Jing could connect Hebei, Shandong, Huaisi. Once Li Jing completed this step, he would truly turn into a dragon when encountering the wind and clouds." Wang Chongrong, the governor of Hezhong, who was the referee, said.

Li Keyong pinched the chess piece for a long time and did not move.

"The King of Jin has different ideas?" Yang Fuguang asked. Many people saw that Li Keyong lost the land of Daibei and believed that Li Keyong had become a loser and had no value anymore. But Yang Fuguang did not think so. Instead, he felt that Li Keyong was more valuable to him after losing Daibei. Because Li Keyong, who had lost his foundation, could be controlled by him from now on and became the most powerful thug under his command. Although Li Keyong was defeated by Li Jing many times, he believed more and more that he had judged Li Jing. There is a saying that the one who knows best is not his friend, but his enemy. Li Keyong is the enemy who knows Li Jing best.

"I can't explain it clearly, but I always feel something is wrong." Li Keyong shook his head, "I have been fighting against Li Zhe for so many years, and I have some understanding of him. This man uses troops like a butcher Ding cuts a cow, and his level of military use is extremely high. But looking at Li Jing's actions this time, I can't understand it. Mobilize the troops of various provinces and even mobilize the auxiliary soldiers and civilians from dozens of states, and the total mobilization of military and civilians reaches one million? If such a mobilization is replaced by any other general, I will believe that they will indeed destroy Chengde in one fell swoop. But if it was Li Jing, it would be very strange."

Yang Fuguang also nodded. Li Jing had many battles to destroy the vassal states in front of him, but he did not dispatch too many troops each time. He had never had such a war of mobilization by the whole nation. In the last Battle of Daibei, Li Jing brought many helpers, but he had never moved a soldier south of the Yellow River.

Li Jing wants to deal with Cheng De, and even if he wants to deal with Wei Bo, he doesn't need so many soldiers at all. In war, the more soldiers the better.

"What do you mean is Li Jing just bluffing this time, not really trying to attack Chengde? But why did he do this, what is the purpose?" Wang Chongrong was puzzled. Mobilizing troops also consumed a lot of food and grass, especially for the whole nation's mobilization. Even if it is the cold winter at the end of the year, it is a considerable expense. Li Jing is not that there is no place to use it with a lot of money and food, otherwise, how is it possible?
