The Taiping Army's offensive remained fierce.

Almost all of Dongying Prefecture's troops were deployed to several strategic locations, including Red Ridge Town.

Nearly 30,000 Taiping Army from Eastern Heaven Prefecture have arrived at Windraising Town.

"Lord Qin, did you say you've been assigned to Red Ridge Town?"

The atmosphere of the Tang Xianzong battle was drawing ever closer, and the soldiers who had been withdrawn by Qin Yan were filled with excitement!

They knew Qin Yan's strength, and under his leadership, they were certain they could achieve great things.

There will definitely be opportunities for you to stand out in the future.

They didn't want to miss out.

Some approached Qin Yan anxiously to ask him questions.

"I'm afraid that won't work!"

Qin Yan gazed at the distant Red Ridge and said calmly, "My mission is to escort the Crown Prince safely to the Capital."

I'm afraid they won't let me leave easily.

Qin Yan also felt quite regretful.

Isn't this an opportunity for him?

Once enough military merits are earned, promotion and advancement are not difficult to achieve.

Unfortunately, he is now somewhat powerless to control his own destiny.

"Ah!"

Tang Xianzong looked visibly disappointed, having missed such a good opportunity to make a name for himself.

They can only stand here and watch.

"You guys better get back to training!"

Qin Yan glanced at Tang Xianzong: "You people are too weak; you need more training."

"No! Sir!"

Tang Xianzong was immediately dumbfounded, his voice pleading. "Our training intensity is now twice that of normal soldiers!"

If we keep practicing like this, we'll really be ruined.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yan scoffed. "As long as I'm here, you'll have to train as long as you still have a breath left!"

"Dare to contradict me? Your training will be increased until you dare utter a sound!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xianzong immediately wilted!

Lord Qin Yan is good in every way, except that he doesn't treat them like human beings during training.

Even if they are injured, they can be brought back to life in a very short time thanks to healing methods.

That's why the training made them feel like they were dying.

Tang Xianzong returned to his encampment.

Du Changfeng and the others eagerly gathered around. "How is it?"

"Lord Qin said that it might be difficult for us to participate in the vanguard battles; escorting Prince Jing is the top priority."

"Oh, does that mean I have no chance of earning military merit?"

A group of people immediately shook their heads and sighed.

"Lord Qin also said that as long as we're not dead, we should train like crazy. We're all in trouble again."

This year has brought another wave of lamentation.

Their days are now a mixture of pain and pleasure; the pain comes from the mental and physical torment that makes them suffer unbearably.

Happiness, on the other hand, is Qin Yan's healing technique, which allows them to recover in a very short time, as if their physical bodies have been tempered.

Many people have already reached the Martial Dao Qi-Blood Realm during this period!

He would be more than qualified to serve as a fifth-rank official or even a rank-and-file leader.

Time passed day by day.

The Taiping Army has begun its attack on Red Ridge, but has encountered fierce resistance!

The general in charge of the defense Ye Yingshan, was quite capable and was a defensive-type general.

The defending side held a terrain advantage, and the military strength of both sides was roughly equal.

The Taiping Army did not gain much advantage.

It's simply impossible to capture Red Ridge Town in a short time!

The Taiping Army has now occupied vast territories, and assimilating them will not be an easy task.

Resistance in various regions did not cease, thus consuming much of their energy.

It will take at least several months for it to be fully digested.

During this period, they also had to face attacks from the army of the Great Li Dynasty!

The main reason they were able to occupy so much territory was because they caught the enemy off guard.

Before many places could react, the cavalry, in conjunction with Assassinations by martial arts masters, swiftly defeated the main forces in various locations.

Officials and generals were also killed by martial arts masters in the process.

This also meant that an effective resistance could not be organized in a short period of time.

The reason they were able to fight to this point was due to the limited number of the Taiping Army and skilled fighters.

They have expanded to the limit of what they can currently control.

Qin Yan continuously studied the intelligence he had gathered and deduced the current battle situation.

If the Taiping Army can establish a foothold within these few months and maintain discipline, a large number of people will definitely join the uprising!

Great Li Dynasty wanted to completely destroy the Taiping Army, it had to be willing to invest heavily and defeat the Taiping Army with overwhelming superiority in manpower and logistics!

Of course, this is only the most ideal situation.

The allocation of supplies and manpower.

After passing through the hands of court officials, the amount actually used on the battlefield is not necessarily much.

Especially regarding the source of soldiers, how many people are willing to risk their lives for the imperial court now?

Officials are all sucking the blood of soldiers and drawing salaries without working!

The army's combat effectiveness was naturally greatly reduced.

There are very few people like Qin Yan who are willing to share money and military merits with their soldiers.

Tang Xianzong and his comrades genuinely benefited and were extremely eager to kill the enemy.

An exquisite manor in the prefectural city.

Xia Chengqian waited listlessly for news; the Dragon Soaring Army would not arrive for some time.

The battle in Dongying Prefecture was also fiercely contested!

All I can do is stay trapped in this manor and wait quietly.

Where did Qin Yan run off to?

Xia Chengqian was somewhat dissatisfied!

"Your Highness, it seems that Lord Qin summoned the people from the Demon-Suppressing Bureau."

Zhang Xiang clasped his hands in a fist salute and replied!

"Qin Yan, Demon-Suppressing Bureau Commandant Inspector, greets Commandant!"

Qin Yan looked at Zhu Hai in front of him and clasped his hands in a salute.

"I wonder what business Lord Zhu has with me?" Qin Yan asked, looking at the other party with some confusion.

"Qin Yan, I've heard that your lightness skill is extremely impressive, and you're often able to defeat Xiantian experts!"

Is this true?

Zhu Hai's expression was serious!

"Yes!"

Qin Yan looked at the other party with some doubt. "I wonder what business you have with me, sir?"

Ning Xi, the Commandant the Demon-Suppressing Bureau of Eastern Heaven Prefecture, was killed by a Qi Refining Realm cultivator from the Taiping Army.

Something extremely important has fallen into their hands.

It was a funerary artifact, containing a powerful evil spirit of the Green Sha level, but this evil spirit was extremely special.

It is extremely adept at absorbing human essence and blood, thus growing rapidly in a short period of time.

This evil spirit advanced from an ordinary Vengeful Ghost to Green Sha in just over a month!

The colleagues in Eastern Heaven Prefecture paid a heavy price to capture and seal this evil spirit.

The matter is to be handed over to the higher-ups of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau for elimination!

Who would have thought that the Taiping Army Rebellion would break out, Ning Xi would not have had time to evacuate.

They've been hiding in Eastern Heaven Prefecture!

However, we received news today that Ning Xi is dead!

The items have already been stolen.

We fear that this thing might fall into the hands of the Taiping Army and become a weapon that threatens us.

"Leave this to me!"

Qin Yan nodded solemnly. A malevolent spirit capable of rapid growth, especially in this chaotic situation.

Once they escape, it's unimaginable how powerful their opponent could be.

"These are the current locations of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau personnel within Eastern Heaven Prefecture!"

According to current information, the Daoist priest who killed Ning Xi was called Daoist Kushan, who was skilled in poisoning and a Daoist technique called 'Death Flame'!

Ning Xi was ambushed and died at the hands of his opponent, so you must be careful.

Besides, there are also Grandmaster -level experts within Eastern Heaven Prefecture, so you must be careful.

"Clear!"

Qin Yan laughed and said, "As long as the item is still in his hands, I have a 70% chance of killing him and taking it back."

"Then I'm leaving everything to you. If things become unmanageable, evacuate as soon as possible!"

Zhu Hai said earnestly.
