Ying Zheng and Wang Jian looked at each other helplessly. They had just thought that Zhao had used the wrong flag to attack Bingzhou, but now Yan had used the right flag to snatch food from them.

Before breaking off relations with Yan State, it would be difficult for Qin State to ask Yan State to withdraw its troops, let alone launch military action against Yan State.

The main reason was that Yan State was too far away from Qin State, and there was Zhao State in between.

If they were to fall out with the State of Yan, they would not be fully prepared to destroy it.

Once they start fighting with Yan State, Wei State and Chu State will be in trouble.

If Qin and Yan go to war, Yan will be able to use the entire territory of Zhao as its strategic depth, and Qin will be caught in a long tug-of-war, and its plan to swallow up the world will be indefinitely put on hold.

"You did a good job!" Ying Zheng did not blame Li Xin.

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief. The Qin State's strategy of swallowing up the world had already been decided, and their top generals and Ying Zheng's confidants also knew about it.

Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, Qi, the order cannot be wrong.

This was a strategy that the entire Qin State's National Guard Office had spent several years discussing and formulating. All aspects were taken into consideration, and any mistake in any link might make the plan of swallowing up the world and unifying the country become a pipe dream.

Although Yan's sudden military action was not part of their plan, from a strategic perspective it did not have much impact on Qin.

"There is one more thing!" Li Xin saw that Ying Zheng's expression did not change, and then he spoke again carefully.

"Speak!" Ying Zheng frowned.

Li Xin looked at Yan Yan hesitantly, and seeing Yan Yan's indifferent expression, he gritted his teeth and said, "Bingzhou has also sent troops. The Bingzhou army originally stationed at Yanmen Pass suddenly moved south and occupied Hongshang Pass!"

After hearing this, Ying Zheng, Wang Jian and others were also stunned, and then they all looked at Yan Yan.

Yan Yan coughed awkwardly, "As you know, there is nothing north of Zhao Guohong's Shangsai, just a few horse farms. These things should be handed over to Bingzhou. After all, we are professionals in horse breeding!"

The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. Could it be that our Qin State attacked Zhao and became an employee working for Yan State and Bingzhou?
They mobilized their troops to attack Zhao. As a result, Bingzhou occupied the north of Zhao, Yan occupied the east of Zhao, and the three states divided Zhao?
But they really have no choice.

They couldn't even deal with the State of Yan, let alone Bingzhou.

"I need Bingzhou to help Qin train 30,000 blood cavalry!" Ying Zheng said gritting his teeth.

"Okay!" Yan Yan seemed to have guessed long ago that Ying Zheng would not give the area north of Hongshangsai to Bingzhou for nothing.

"What I mean is the bloody cavalry used in the great battle with Donghu!" Ying Zheng said seriously when he saw Yan Yan agreed so readily.

"Okay!" Yan Yan replied calmly.

"What I mean is that my Great Qin will only give Bing Jun the right to select personnel throughout the Great Qin, and all war horses and equipment will be provided by Bingzhou!" Ying Zheng suddenly felt that he seemed to have asked for too little and continued.

"Okay!" Yan Yan looked at Ying Zheng and continued to nod.

Ying Zheng was stunned, and turned to look at Wang Jian, Li Xin and others, "Think about it quickly, if you have any other requests, think about it quickly, if you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."

Wang Jian, Li Xin and others instantly understood the meaning revealed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and were also quickly thinking about what else they could get from Bingzhou.

"We still need three thousand horse lances!" Yang Duanhe spoke first.

"Don't even think about it!" Yan Yan glanced at Yang Duanhe and refused decisively.

In three years, Bingzhou could only produce less than two thousand horse lances, and you asked for three thousand!
Ying Zheng, Wang Jian and others looked at Yan Yan and Yang Duanhe in confusion. They didn't know what a horse lance was. Why was Yan Yan willing to provide the horses and equipment for 30,000 cavalrymen but not 3,000 horse lances?

Judging from the name, this should be a weapon. But as we all know, weapons are not as valuable as armor, war horses, etc.

"The new type of soldier in the Bingzhou Yulin Guard Cavalry Camp is the lance cavalry, which is known as the nemesis of all cavalry and heavy armored shield guards!" Yang Duanhe explained.

When he was in Wuwei, he had seen horse lance cavalry, but their number was too small, less than a hundred people. However, on the battlefield, thousands of soldiers were frightened and no one could stop them with horse lances.

So he remembered this weapon at that time.

Later, he asked Dian Qing and found out that it was not that Bingzhou did not want to expand the scale of horse lance cavalry, but that the manufacture of horse lance took a long time and it was difficult to achieve mass production on an assembly line.

Especially the horse lance that is more than ten feet long, which is difficult for ordinary soldiers to wield and can only be used by brave warriors.

Bingzhou selected only about a hundred people after careful selection.

"Break the armor!" Meng Tian and Meng Yi were also explaining to everyone the horror of the horse lance.

"Your Majesty, you can understand it as replacing the spear head of the halberd with a famous sword!" Fearing that others might not understand, Meng Yi thought of a way that would be understandable to others.

After hearing this, everyone understood and realized how terrifying the horse lance was.

Then they all understood why Yan Yan disagreed, because that was equivalent to giving away three thousand swords.

Even Ying Zheng felt that Yang Duanhe's request was excessive.

Is a famous sword so easy to forge?

"If not three thousand, five hundred will be fine!" Yang Duanhe ignored the whispers of the crowd and continued to bargain with Yan Yan.

"Why don't you go and rob it!" Yan Yan rolled his eyes, "Do you know how much a horse lance is worth? Even if you sell your house in Xianyang, it's only worth the price of a horse lance!"

"Okay, give me the lance and you can have the house!" Yang Duanhe suddenly did not follow the routine and even asked for a written agreement on the spot.

“???” Ying Zheng, Wang Jian and others were all stunned.

Yan Yan also stared at Yang Duanhe in a daze. You must have been targeting Ma Lance on purpose!
"The sword is sold to the martyr, the rouge is sold to the beauty, and a house is exchanged for a lance. It's worth it!" Yang Duanhe said as he really wrote the receipt.

Wang Jian narrowed his eyes. He had known Yang Duanhe for many years and was confident that he understood Yang Duanhe well. So he was even more curious about what kind of weapon Yang Duanhe loved so much that he was even willing to exchange it for the Xianyang mansion bestowed upon him by the king.

Everyone else seemed to be thinking about something, except Li Xin, who looked at Yang Duanhe in silence, then slowly said, "General Yang obviously doesn't know how to negotiate. How can he reduce the price from three thousand to five hundred, and then reduce it to the point of losing money!"

"..." Ying Zheng, Wang Jian and others looked at Li Xin strangely. Are you a devil? Is this the point?

It was obvious that Yang Duanhe brought it up intentionally in order to abuse his power for personal gain and obtain a Bingzhou horse lance. He was not seeking benefits for the 30,000 blood cavalry at all.

"Okay, but... I need General Yang to create a horse lance martial art and hand it over to Bingzhou!" Yan Yan said after thinking for a while.

The horse lance is a powerful weapon, but there are too few martial arts that go with it. Even he and the Six-Fingered Black Knight are not used to using this long weapon.

What's more, the horse lance was born for the battlefield, and the matching martial arts should also belong to the battlefield.

In this regard, neither he nor the Six-Fingered Black Knight are suitable to create an exclusive martial art for the Horse Lance.

Because their identities determined that they could not charge into battle, they naturally did not know how to use the lance in the battlefield.
