The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

"It seems that the Chu army's offensive is very weak. This morning, the Chu army launched a total of three offensives, but the largest offensive force was only two troops, and there was no artillery support. It is obviously impossible to rely solely on infantry." Zhang Ti said to Xue Gui.

"We got news from the Sharpshooter Company that the Chu army was firmly nailed to the spot. They could not move. If they proceeded recklessly, the casualties would still be great. At least they can leave here, but what are they? They didn't do it. If this continues, they can only be passively beaten. However, because of the scattered defenses, the Chu army in other places cannot gather together. The attack in twos and threes does not pose a great threat to us." Xue Gui said .

"Yeah. The officer was right. The offensive this morning was like this. We saw that the Chu army's offensive was very weak. We only need to shoot a little to defeat an offense, but we still let them in in large numbers and concentrate once. With firepower, they can completely collapse." Zhang Ti said.

"Well. Don't waste ammunition. If there are too many attacks like this, we still can't stand the opponent's attack." Xue Gui said.

"Sir. Haven't our logistics supplies come yet?" Zhang Ti asked worriedly.

"Yes. It hasn't come yet. The original plan was that we should be able to get logistical supplies from the sea. At the very least, we can be adequately supplied with ammunition, but now it seems that we still have too many accidents." Xue Gui said worriedly. . After all, if logistical supplies cannot be delivered in time, it will greatly affect their combat effectiveness.

"Sir, in fact, we can hold on for a while. After all, we found the logistics supply warehouse of the Chu Army in Jimo City. There are a lot of ammunition in it, and the amount of gunpowder is also very large. As long as we make full use of this, The task can still be completed." Zhang Ti comforted his chief.

"Yeah. Maybe." Xue Gui nodded.

"Actually, I am also worried. If there is no logistical supply, especially if there is no follow-up troops, the Chu army will quickly go south. After all, we only have 3,000 people. Without sea support, the impact on us would be too great. "Xue Gui said worriedly.

"Yeah." Zhang Ti nodded.

"Sir. I think we just occupied Jimo City. If we can't win in unexpected places on the battlefield, it doesn't make much sense. We captured Jimo City this time, in fact, for the navy. The navy has a port, There is still a need for a railway. Who owns this railway and who should be allowed to do it, these are some questions." Zhang Ti said.

"Our main trade competition object is the coastal area of ​​Qi. The trade in the coastal area of ​​Qi has increased a lot. I heard that the people of Qi are also actively building a railway directly to the coastal area. If we in South Korea can directly build a direct link to Jimo City With railways, I think we will surpass the Binhai District. After all, there is no railway in the Binhai District. Only in this way can Jimo City take the initiative in its future development.” Zhang Ti suggested.

"Well. I see you, you can retire after this battle is over." Xue Gui nodded and said directly to Zhang Ti.

"Why?" Zhang Ti asked in surprise.

"I think you are thinking about a lot of government affairs, and you don't want to think about military affairs. In this case, you should just go to politics." Xue Gui said to Zhang Ti.

"Haha." Zhang Ti wiped his head and smiled. And Xue Gui smiled and patted Zhang Ti on the shoulder.

"Korea needs such talents, but it solves a lot of problems. As long as you are not afraid of problems, I think the problems should be solved." Xue Gui said to Zhang Ti.

"Yes, sir." Zhang Ti replied with a smile.

Xinzheng, South Korea. In the lobby of the Chu State Chamber of Commerce. Fan Zeng, who resigned from the State of Qin, sat in the hall and ate his food. Qin's food is simple and rough. Although there are many new things to fill in. But Fan Zeng still couldn't get used to it. The meals in Qin State are more meaty, and there are also more kinds of pastries and pasta made from wheat. At the same time, the demand for sweetness in middle and high-level things has also increased. For example, in Qin's fast drinks, the demand for sweetness is relatively large, which is also the main reason for the increase in demand for Qin's white sugar. Under the influence of Qin, the Western Regions also had a great demand for sugar. Although there are many styles of food in Qin State, most of them are relatively simple types. Chu's cuisine has a wide variety of styles and is much more delicate to prepare. These are not among Qin State's food. After Fan Zeng resigned from the State of Qin, he decided to visit all over the world. He had just taken a train from Guanzhong to Xinzheng, South Korea. He planned to visit South Korea again. Qin State paid him a relatively generous salary, so that he could do so. Don’t worry about costs.

Fan Zeng was disgusted with the food of the State of Qin. Although you can find restaurants of the State of Chu in Qin State Pass, the dishes of the State of Chu have been changed greatly to suit the taste of the State of Qin. For example, the dishes of Chu State need to be exquisite, and exquisiteness inevitably takes a long time. But the pace of life of Qin people has accelerated a lot. People need a simple and fast style of food. The exquisiteness of Chu country cannot adapt to Qin country, so a lot of simplifications have been made. Such simplification brings serious taste. The reduction, the shrinkage is very severe. It is hardly the delicacy of Chu State. Fan Zeng thought that this simplified Chu State’s food could not be regarded as Chu’s food. Now what Fan Zeng is looking for is the original taste of Chu's food.

"Isn't this Mr. Fan?" Just when Fan Zeng was about to feast on, a Chu businessman said to Fan Zeng with a smile.

"Oh. Are you?" Fan Zeng looked at each other suspiciously.

"Oh. We are just admiring Mr. Fan's name for a long time." The businessman said with a smile.

"It's just." Fan Zeng looked at each other alertly.

"Oh. I forgot to introduce it. Next is Huang Pin, a businessman from Chu State." Huang Pin introduced.

"Oh." Fan Zeng just nodded.

"It's just that I don't know me here." Fan Zeng said while looking at the other party. For such a person, Fan Zeng believes that there is not much interaction. It's fine to refuse directly.

"Oh, but I recognize that Mr. is Qin's Secretary of State." Huang Pin said.

"Oh. The old man is no longer Qin's Secretary of State. He has resigned now." Fan Zeng shook his head and said.

"This." Huang Pin was a little bit speechless in surprise.

"It's just that Mr. Huang interrupted my meal." Fan Zeng said unceremoniously at this time. For such a person, Fan Zeng really didn't want to know him. After all, Fan Zeng was unwilling to say anything about Qin's secretary of state. Qin was unwilling to use his talents, so he was naturally unwilling to be his own secretary of state.

"Oh. That's it." Huang Pin just smiled. Then I won't say anything. Immediately Huang Pin left with a sense of interest. Then I went to find someone. Fan Zeng continued to enjoy his okay.

A small conference room at Xinzheng Korea University.

"The goal of the State of Zhao is very simple. It is to establish their own colony in northern Liaoning. I think such a thing is normal. After all, to open up a colony, you need to pass through the State of Yan and your Liaodong. The State of Zhao is involved, I I think it's normal." Shang Wen introduced to Prince Dan. And Li Mu sat aside holding his hands. He looked at Prince Dan's facial expression.

"Zhao’s colony will bring a lot of investment to Qin. Such investment is very useful for the commercial development of Qin. Therefore, we hope that Yan can provide great help. After all, from our Qin If you enter the northern part of Liaoning, you need to cross the **** mountainous area. Most of these mountainous areas are not controlled by the Qin State." Shang Wen explained.

"However, in this case, the threat to Liaodong, the country of Yan, is very great." Prince Dan said worriedly.

"Oh. No. They established a colony to develop the market, which would be very beneficial to Yan State. The one who threatened Yan State and Liaodong very much was Goguryeo. This issue should be our common concern. If Yan State can agree to this issue If it is, I think that the three of us can sit together to solve the problem of Goguryeo. After all, the problem of Goguryeo is what we worry about the most." Shangwen pointed out that the harassment of the Goguryeo tribe against Liaodong of Yan is the key.

"This question should have nothing to do with the Liaobei colony?" Prince Dan has not yet received any benefits from the Qin State. He believes that if a large number of colonies are established in the area north of Liaodong in the Yan State, there will definitely be a large number of colonies. Garrison, these garrisons will pose a deadly threat to them, this is the place that makes Prince Dan feel the most painful, and it is also unacceptable.

"This is inexorably linked to the economy of the State of Yan. If the State of Zhao establishes a colony in northern Liaoning, it will take various military measures and measures against northern Liaoning. Trade measures, these measures can bring benefits to the economy of the State of Yan. Great stimulus, such as the military, the demand for logistics supplies, and the demand for railways, all of which can bring about the economic development of Yan's country." Shang Wen explained.

"There is also trade. There are many ethnic minorities in northern Liaoning. After stabilizing, the only way is to start trade. This kind of trade will bring huge profits. The country of Yan is vulnerable to shocks. A lot of mountain products, raw materials, etc. Du Yan is very advantageous. Not only that, but after Yan's economy has developed to a certain level, I think Yan can also solve this problem by itself. For example, Yan can establish its own colony, or directly on the enemy’s Korean Peninsula. It's okay to build a vast colony," Shang Wen said with a smile. Whether it can support Zhao Guo to establish his own colony in northern Liaoning depends on Yan Guo's attitude. The only way to change Yan Guo's attitude is to induce it.

Li Mu just looked at Prince Dan. He hoped that Prince Dan could make a clear choice. Regarding the establishment of a colony in northern Liaoning, Li Mu met with Shang Wen yesterday and explained in detail Zhao Guo’s attitude in northern Liaoning. Shangwen has been unable to find a suitable reason for the development in the northeast, and the development of Qin State lacks sufficient reasons. Although the development of Yanbei is of great significance, but Yan is unable to do so. At this time, a country is needed. Come take the initiative to guide Yan Guo to do this. And Zhao Guo happened to play such a role, and actively exploring colonies can bring a large market, the more this market, the more beneficial to Qin State. Therefore, Shang Wen clearly expressed Qin's capital support and was willing to persuade Yan to open his Liaodong passage.

"How did we Yan Guo solve the problem of Goguryeo? My military commander told me that the Liaodong border of Yan country could not be defended and lacked enough defensive forces. This problem is too difficult for our country Yan. I don't know about Qin and Zhao. Can this problem be solved?" Prince Dan said at this time.

At this time, Li Mu looked at Shang Wen, and Shang Wen nodded.

"I think it can be solved, but Qin and Zhao need to get a certain discount on other issues. For example, on the railway issue." Shang Wen said to Prince Dan at this time.

"Qin and Zhao can contribute funds and send troops to solve this problem, and this problem is solved very well, the problem is not very big." Shang Wen said to Prince Dan at this time. Li Mu also had some concerns. He was worried that Shangwen's request to send troops would seriously affect Zhao's financial expenditure. After all, he could not drag himself into the war on the Korean Peninsula just because he agreed to Yan. This was not Li Mu's original intention.

"It's just that, how do Qin and Zhao solve this problem? I want to hear your specific opinions." Prince Dan asked.

"It doesn't need to be specific. But we are absolutely sure that we can force Goguryeo to not attack the country of Yan. At the same time, the country of Yan can escape from the Korean War. If the country of Yan can make major concessions on the railway project, of course Now, we won't let Yan Guo suffer too much. Otherwise, Yan Guo will not be able to calm down, and everyone will not be able to do business in the future." Shang Wen said.

"In my opinion, the main problem of Yan's country is not the border problem of Yan's country, but the economy of Yan's country. Yan's economy is in a state of decline. There are many economic disadvantages in Yan's country. If we do not reform, I think Yan's country is very It's hard to get out of this dilemma." Shang Wen said.

"So, I think that under the guidance of Zhao and Qin, Yan can solve its own ills, which will be of great benefit to the development of Yan." Shangwen said.

"Railways and colonies are an important guiding role. The jobs that railways can bring can bring a lot of employment opportunities to the people of Yan, and at the same time, it can also solve the food plight of Yan and bring a lot of taxes. Not only these, if Yan country reduces tariffs and maintains an equal and favorable tax environment, I think the economy of Yan country will develop rapidly. There will be a colony of Zhao country in northern Liaoning, and all kinds of goods will enter Yan country. Once the country of Yan develops, it can also fully develop the Goguryeo people on the Korean peninsula as its own colony and become a market for Yan country’s products.” Shang Wen said.

"The country of Yan can also develop its own colonies. The vast North Pole of Liaoning Province can expand its territory and expand its territory. This is a great credit. This credit can be written into history." Shang Wen smiled to the prince. Dan said.

Hearing this, Prince Dan's heart suddenly opened up a lot. He felt that Shangwen was right, and it was a great contribution to expanding the territory. Such credit is enough to write him into history. Leave your name.

"Then I would like to thank the Prime Minister, and General Li." Prince Dan was a little airy. He knew that Qin and Zhao's help was still needed at this time, so he expressed his acceptance of Qin and Zhao's proposal in a way of gratitude. Under Shangwen's further persuasion, Prince Dan agreed to Shangwen's request, and the specific representatives of the tripartite representatives came in for further discussions. In this way, many problems in the Kingdom of Yan were resolved, and the Liaobei colony of the Kingdom of Zhao was resolved.

"The prime minister, please stay." Li Mu stopped Shang Wen when he came out.

"Oh. Is there anything else General Li has to do?" At this time, Shang Wen asked back.

"Oh. That's the case. Regarding the issue of the country's sending of troops, I am worried that our Zhao country's finances will not be able to support it. I want to know how the prime minister thinks about it." Li Mu said worriedly. On this issue, Li Mu was very worried. Zhao followed Qin’s involvement in the Korean War in Yan. Li Mu knew very well that the Korean peninsula was mountainous and plain areas were suitable for occupation, but the other party would hide in the mountains. As a result, the war will naturally enter a stalemate, which is very detrimental to Zhao, because Zhao’s finances cannot support such a huge military expenditure. If it goes on for a long time, Zhao will not be defeated, but will be dragged alive. Li Mu was also worried about collapse. Shangwen didn't understand the military and could easily enter such a dilemma. He came up with a good explanation for such a thing. After all, the country of Yan was dragged down by Goguryeo in this way.

"Yeah. This matter." Shang Wen said.

"My idea is the plan provided by our staff and the Ministry of National Defense." Shang Wen said to Li Mu.

"Our way, using one weapon can solve this problem, of course. It also requires a certain number of soldiers, but the number of soldiers can be greatly reduced." Shang Wen said.

"At the same time, it can buy Yan Guo quite a lot of time." Shang Wen said to Li Mu.

"Oh. I don't know what weapon is so powerful." Li Mu asked with interest at this time.

"Landmine." Shang Wen replied with a smile.

"Land mine? Oh. Yes, this weapon can meet such defense requirements." Li Mu suddenly realized.

"Yes. Landmines are not just that. I think that many landmine production in Qin State can also be moved to Zhao State. After all, Zhao State has a lot of pig iron. These pig irons are good weapons for making landmines, and the cost will not be high. There are too many, and there are some barbed wire fences. If there is more pig iron, we can do it completely. We completely combine the barbed wire fences with landmines. In this way, we can intensively defend the Goguryeo people from going north. I know that it takes a lot to deploy such many landmines. However, if we do so, we can free up a lot of troops." Shang Wen said to Li Mu.

"However, as long as we are well trained and organized, I think such tasks should be achievable. After all, these are things that engineers and soldiers do." Shang Wen said.

"I know that General Li is worried that we will be too involved in the affairs of Yan State. I think that such worries are unnecessary." Shang Wen said.

"Our goal is very clear. It is to cede the war between Kaiyan and Goguryeo and achieve stability on the front. Then we can use other methods, such as the way of opening trade, to contact, so that we may be able to reach a ceasefire. After all, the Goguryeo people If they can't go north, they will choose this way." Shang Wen said.

"At that time, we were able to do business with the Goguryeo people. Zhao State had a large amount of pig iron, and the pig iron could be sold to them. In exchange for more support from them," Shang Wen said.

"We will not participate in the affairs of the Korean peninsula. Our goal is clear is to end the war. The purpose of fighting is not to continue fighting, but to peace. We will use trade more to squeeze out Goguryeo. The war potential of such ethnic minorities is slowly losing their war potential in trade." Shang Wen said at this time.

"Yeah. The prime minister's idea is really clever." Li Mu said at this time.

"Thank you for the compliment, but I think that Zhao should not only introduce a simple arsenal, but also more civilian factories. In terms of introducing funds, more concessions should be given. Only in this way can Zhao go further. "Shang Wen said.

"Yeah. Thanks for the reminder from the Prime Minister." Li Mu said.

"I think Zhao Guo will also have his own investment in this regard." Shang Wen said.

"Zhao country can produce a large number of railroad tracks. These railroad tracks are the advantage of Zhao country. If Zhao country wants to establish a larger colony, it cannot do without the railway support of Yan country. Qin country can provide financial support, and Yan country can To provide advantages in labor, Zhao Guo can occupy a great advantage based on the raw materials he provides." Shang Wen said.

"Is this the railway advantage that the prime minister said?" Li Mu asked.

"Yes." Shang Wen nodded and admitted.

"Only in this way can we make up for our losses on landmines. You must know that the price of landmines is not cheap. If you deploy landmines, it will cost a lot. Zhao Guo's soldiers also need training. At least a few thousand engineers are required to concentrate such a large mine. District layout. If necessary, there may be more. Therefore, we need to supplement our needs from another aspect. In this way, we can only make up for this place." Shangwen said.

"Haha. It seems that doing business with Qin will not make a big loss." Li Mu said with a smile.

"This is necessary." Shang Wen said with a smile.

"If we lose money, there is no need for us to develop further on the issue of Yan State." Shangwen said.

"That's right. Zhao Guo can also make a profit. This is the situation I hope to see, and I hope that in the future, Qin Guo and Zhao Guo can develop more such cooperation. After all, such profitability is very optimistic." Li Mu said To.

"Yes, a lot." Shang Wen said.

"Goguryeo is our next goal. We will definitely suffer a loss when we fight against Goguryeo people, but they will lose even more when doing business," Shang Wen said.
