"Next, it's time to take down Leling and Pingyang City." Zhao Xu's thoughts returned to the war south to discuss the matter of training with Ma Han.

As Mahan said, the Plain City was conquered, and the remaining two cities were no longer a problem.

After all, Chang Wei and the others have already had the experience of attacking lighter troops to guard the city.

Thinking of this, he ordered Chang Wei to take action against the other two cities.

At the same time, the news of the defeat in Pingyuan City also reached Lucheng.

From the escaped soldiers, Han Zheng sat down dejectedly and speechless for a long time.

"Emperor, Pingyuan cannot be defended, and Leling and Yangping naturally cannot be defended either. I think it is better to let them withdraw to Qi in advance and preserve their strength instead of waiting for the King of Yan's troops to annihilate the soldiers of the two cities."

"Taking the Jin River as the natural barrier, relying on the city in the south to resist the King of Yan, and at the same time, building a fort along the Yellow River ferry to prevent the King of Yan from ferrying south." Wang Zi'an said.

When Qi State was established, he was willing to surrender and be competent for the position of prime minister.

In addition to Han Zheng, he has the greatest power in Qi State.

Behind Wang Zi'an is Wang Xie, now he is the Minister of War.

When he learned that Pingyuan City had fallen, he came with Wang Zi'an. On the way, he told Wang Zi'an what he thought.

Wang Zi'an actually means what he means.

In fact, since the establishment of Qi State, he advocated taking the initiative to abandon the three-sided cities on the north side.

After all, these three cities border the territory of the King of Yan, and the use of a lot of manpower and material resources to defend these three cities will only waste the national strength of Qi.

The King of Yan wanted to take down these three cities as if he were to do so.

However, because Han Zheng received support from Japan, the Han army equipped a large number of firearms.

Therefore, he believed that defending the three cities was not a problem, and he could even rely on the three cities to continuously raid the territory of the King of Yan and eventually wipe out the King of Yan.

After learning about the process of King Yan's troops attacking Pingyuan City, Han Zheng felt cold behind him.

He thought that with the advantage of defending the city, even if he failed, he could severely damage the King of Yan's troops.

But the fact is that the King of Yan established their own advantages before siegeing the city and destroyed their advantages.

The defense of Plain City is the highest among the three cities.

It can be easily taken down, so there is no need to say about the other two cities.

He pinched his eyebrows in pain and said, "What the Prime Minister said is so true. He immediately ordered the two cities, Pingyang City and Leling City, to withdraw all the soldiers and horses of the Jin River and rely on the south bank of the city to resist the soldiers of the King of Yan."

After deciding on this matter, he ordered the court to be dispersed, leaving Wang Zi'an and Wang Xie alone, and asked someone to invite Sato Masaki over.

Sitting on the dragon throne, Han Zheng looked at the three of them and sighed and said, "I didn't expect that the King of Yan is so capable of fighting. I really can't underestimate the enemy anymore in the future. How to resist the King of Yan next? I wonder what the three of them have to think."

Wang Xie said: "The emperor actually doesn't have to worry. The Xie family, Nanliang, and Wu Kingdom have signed a contract. They will not watch Qi be attacked by the King of Yan. Now they should call them to Lucheng to discuss ways to deal with the King of Yan."

Han Zheng nodded and felt relieved.

That's right, he is not a country that Qi is fighting against the King of Hell, and behind him is another country established by other powerful clans.

Since the offensive and defensive alliance has been established, his Qi State should not be allowed to face the King of Yan alone.

Then, he turned his eyes to Sato Masahiro.

The union of the Si Clan Sect is certainly a good thing, but he knows very well that if he falls behind the Yan King too much in the firearm, even if their Si Clan merges into one place, he may not be the opponent of the Yan King.

Therefore, whether they can protect their established countries is crucial.

Sato Masahiro also looked at Han Zheng, he knew what Han Zheng wanted to say.

He chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, don't panic. I just got the news that the craftsmen who came from Japan have arrived in Qingcheng."

"But originally there should be more than 500 craftsmen in this group, but because of the attack by the Black Shark Pirates, there are only more than 100 people now. Of course, this is enough to help you improve your skills in casting firearms."

When Han Zheng heard this, he immediately looked up and danced.

Wang Zi'an and Wang Xie were also shocked.

The defeat in Pingyuan City this time was the firearm of King Yan.

Whether it is the muskets or cannons of Yan, they are more than just better than them.

Although Japan's firearms seem to be inferior to those of the King of Yan.

But they at least got rid of the mezzanine and lifted the musket up to a level.

Moreover, with the arrival of these Japanese craftsmen, their artillery may be improved.

"Tokyo is really the savior of our Qi Kingdom." If it weren't for the prince's presence, he would even want to pour a cup of tea for Sato Mahara himself.

Sato Masahiro enjoyed the eyes of Han Zheng and Wang Zi'an.

He continued: "In addition, they also brought a message from the general. In order to restrain the King of Yan, our Japan will immediately create a major event. If this matter is successful, it will cause great trouble to the King of Yan. In the future, the King of Yan will have a very sad life."

"Oh?" Han Zheng's heart was immediately scratched, "What the hell is it?"

Sato Masahiro shook his head, "I don't know the specifics, but I'll just wait and see."
