If they failed to handle this matter well, he would never be able to return to the Xiongnu territory again.

Therefore, Modu kept making promises to the ten generals.

He promised many benefits, just hoping they could be reliable.

The ten generals did not disappoint Modu.

They indicated that even if they died, they must complete the task entrusted by His Highness.

Therefore, Modu could only obediently wait here.

Only when fifty-two thousand warhorses arrived here would he have a chance to leave.

And in this battle.

Ying Ying Zi Ye's prestige spread rapidly among the three hundred thousand border defense troops.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have known that the Crown Prince was so powerful.

Meng Tian's action of holding the weapon on the Great Wall was spread by the soldiers at the time.

It was rumored that the Crown Prince's weapon weighed two hundred jin!

This made many soldiers disbelieve it, and some even went around asking about it.

But the news they received was true and valid!

Because even General Meng Tian nodded and confirmed it when he heard the news.

Because General Meng Tian had tested it himself, and it was strenuous even with both hands.

This matter also spread rapidly among the border defense troops.

Ying Ying Zi Ye's great name was made in one battle!

More and more people remembered this name—Ying Ying Zi Ye!

Not because of his special status as the Crown Prince of Great Qin.

But because his martial strength was off the charts.

The next day.

The main camp of the military generals.

Dozens of martial generals were gathered here at this time.

Sounds of dispute could be heard from the tent from time to time.

The Meng Tian faction was on one side, and the Han Xin, Wang Li, and other factions were on the other.

And Ying Ying Zi Ye sat in the main seat, silent.

"The three-piece set for warhorses, the horse-chopping saber, the super divine crossbow, and other weapons should be handed over to our border defense troops."

"The Commandant Army will eventually have to return to protect the safety of Xianyang."

"If these weapons are left behind, our border defense troops can become more familiar with them."

"With these weapons, we can capture more Xiongnu."

Deputy General Qian was imposing, his voice resonant and powerful.

Hearing this, the other deputy generals clapped and praised him.

Deputy General Qian's words were too correct.

They were all very envious of that batch of weapons.

They had played a huge role on the battlefield.

As a martial general, how could one not be envious?

With these weapons, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under them would double.

And casualties would also be greatly reduced.

Everyone understood that it was a matter with a hundred benefits and no harm.

But how could Wang Li and the others easily hand over these weapons to the border defense troops?

Wang Li and the others looked at each other.

Han Xin stepped out and bowed.

"Deputy General Qian's words are wrong."

"Our Commandant Army can also fight the Xiongnu; it is not necessarily something that only the border defense troops can do."

"Even if we don't go back, Xianyang will not lack our ten thousand men."

"We are using this batch of weapons very well, and we do not intend to hand them over for your use."

"If you want them, it's not impossible, just wait for the next batch!"

Han Xin chuckled; these weapons were so easy to use.

How could they easily hand them over?

Unless His Highness gave a death order.

Otherwise, even if the people from Meng Tian's camp talked until their lips were dry, it would be useless.

Even if Meng Tian and the others wanted to snatch them, they wouldn't give them up.

"The next batch?"

"When will the next batch arrive?"

"Don't forget, you came here to deliver supplies to us."

"But now you are keeping them for your own use."

"So the question arises, where are the supplies you brought?"

Deputy General Zhao sneered, looking at Han Xin as if he were looking at a bandit.

In terms of official rank, he could leave Han Xin ten streets behind.

But unfortunately, Han Xin was His Highness's man, so he didn't even have the qualifications to talk to Han Xin.

Han Xin knew these things too, and he didn't dare to be arrogant; instead, he had to work even harder.

He didn't know how to refute Deputy General Zhao's words.

He could only look for help from his superior—Wang Li.

"Deputy General Zhao, these words are wrong."

Wang Li walked out with a smile.

"Deputy General Zhao, we did bring the supplies, but we never said when we would give them to you."

"This batch of weapons is still in the experimental stage, and our mission this time is to test this batch of weapons."

"Now that this batch of weapons has only been on the battlefield once, we have a need to continue to use them on the battlefield to test them!"

"If this matter were left to you, our Commandant Army wouldn't be at ease!"

"The ones most familiar with this batch of weapons are still our Commandant Army!"

Wang Li decided that if His Highness didn't give a death order, he didn't want to hand over this batch of weapons either.

He also deeply fell in love with this batch of weapons; as long as he was still at the border, he didn't want to hand them over.

Both sides held their own views and refused to step back.

One side wanted them, the other wouldn't give them, and the dispute continued.

"Your Highness, please judge this for us!"

In the end, all the martial generals looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye, who was sitting quietly in the center.

Ying Ying Zi Ye finished the last sip of tea in his cup.

He raised his head and looked at everyone.

He was also a bit helpless.

These weapons were too popular.

But the production speed couldn't keep up.

He didn't have any better methods either.

Now it had created a situation where both sides were disputing.

"It seems both sides have boasted before."

"Saying that if the Commandant Army couldn't use those weapons well, they would be handed over to your border defense troops to use."

"Now that there has been one battle, what do you think of the Commandant Army?"

"If it's not good, let the Commandant Army hand over the weapons to your border defense troops."

"If you think it's alright, then let them continue to use them first."

Once these words of Ying Ying Zi Ye came out, the tent suddenly became quiet.
