The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Pengcheng. In the Chu State Assembly, because the Parliament has the legislative power, the daily affairs of the Parliament are to discuss what kind of laws are passed and what kinds of laws cannot be passed, and the bills proposed often come from the prime minister’s office, the king of Chu, who is the head of state of the king of Chu. The Prime Minister, the product of a compromise and balance between the power of national governance and legislative power.

After all, the Kingdom of Chu cannot peacefully seize power by relying solely on the army. Even the seizure of power will cost a considerable price. This price may be the complete collapse of the State of Chu. Such a price is unwilling to see the nobles and the kings of Chu. Circumstances, so no matter, compromise is the final product of this country. The parliament held by the nobles controlled the legislative power of the country because they had more resource advantages than the king of Chu.

"I think we should fight this war, but the question is how to fight it? This is where we should be concerned.

"Sima Sheng said. He represents the interests of Chu's coastal areas. They have a certain amount of land bonds, a certain size of the army, and a certain naval force adapted from the recruitment of pirates. With this power he It also entered the circle of the Chu State Council, from the local council to the central council, that is, the national parliament.

"Fighting is a matter of consuming money. Without money, you can't command those troops at all. If you want to fight, it must be in the faraway country of Bangladesh. We don't know where this country is. We only know about them. Our country is very far away in the Western Ocean. We have never seen it in the sea. Don’t raise soldiers at all. It must be easy to hit them. We have muskets and artillery. The other party can’t withstand a blow from us at all, but our situation is better. They are far away, you know, the war can be thousands of miles away." Nangonghu said.

"Yeah, the cost of this journey is more terrible than fighting a war. If it really starts, we will have no money if we haven't fought it. This war should be more cautious and more cautious." Some congressmen heard Such an unfavorable situation. He immediately expressed the need to be cautious. After all, if the war costs too much, they are unwilling to spend money. War is also a business, and no one is willing to do a loss-making business.

"Our country of Chu has united with the South Korean government, and the South Korean government will provide us with ships, but if this war goes on, what kind of benefits will we have? Are we doing silk business? How much gold does the country of Bangladesh have?" Asked the middle-aged congressman.

"If you have gold, you can fight. We have more silk but very little gold. A lot of gold has been eaten by the people of Qin. You need gold to buy guns and cannons. If there is national gold in Bangladesh, I think we can fight. One game, after all, we will not lose." Other congressmen echoed one after another. They can still see the benefits of sending troops to fight. After all, such benefits exist, and what they need is such benefits. Silk can bring a lot of gold, which is a stark attraction. Although the parliamentarians know very little about Bangladesh, they know the silk trade that can bring huge benefits. Many people know this.

Chu’s domestic parliament has formed two attitudes. One is that war can bring great benefits. This benefit comes from the gold attraction of silk trade, which is greed, and the other is fear or worry. , After all, the area where the war took place is overseas, thousands of miles away. This requires a large amount of naval power and maritime transportation power. Chu is probably difficult to do at this point. Next, they need to see what choice the government makes. Is it beneficial to them to develop trade, or refuse to send troops?

Qin State Xianyang. Inside the staff. Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe, Wei Liao and others sat below, waiting for the result of the competition for the newly established Secretary of the Army. This is a new department, which is different from the War Department under the previous General Staff Department. They are independent and a department unit under the Prime Minister’s Office. In other words, the War Department is more responsible for politics and the army. Transitional tasks. As for how to develop in the future, this is the future. At present, they need to run for a new Secretary of the Army. The secretary of the army is from the Ministry of National Defense, recommended by the General Staff, and recommended by the Ministry of National Defense as a retired soldier. When he retires, his rank is only a colonel. Not even a brigadier general, at most it is the strength of leading a regiment. Low qualifications. The name is Bai Dong. But he has entered the School of Political Economy and studied, so to speak. He can better understand what Qin Jun needs now. In other words, he is very clear about the role of communication between the government and the military.

The military representative is a lieutenant general. His name is Li Chun, he is in his fifties, while Bai Dong is only forty-five. The other party’s qualifications are obviously much better than those recommended by the Ministry of National Defense.

"The mission of the Ministry of Army is very clear. It is to allow the Army to perform its original mission. Expand the influence of the State of Qin in the Western Regions. For this reason, the State of Qin’s Army must be re-adjusted to adopt a small-scale army organization, basically with brigade and regiment As a unit, increase the maneuverability and firepower of the brigade and regiment. At the same time, increase the construction of the army aviation force, so that the army aviation force can bear a certain military transportation and military firepower strike capabilities. In this way, the Qin army can get rid of the current The unfavorable situation of the war." The first candidate was General Li Chunzhong of the General Staff. He has a strong military mindset, and he is accustomed to using military methods to solve problems instead of other methods. And the military approach is very attractive.

It is precisely because of this that it was recommended by the General Staff. The problem that the Qin Army is currently exposed is poor mobility, and its firepower is not light enough or fast enough. In particular, some front-line combat troops have obvious combat firepower. These weaknesses are mainly reflected in the number of machine guns. The Qin Army plans to purchase a considerable number of machine guns in the next step. Come to subsidize the problem of weak firepower, such a share of the goods. The military expenditures of the Qin Army will increase a lot. Not only did he increase a lot, he also had a bigger plan. This plan came from the improvement of the Qin Army Aviation Force. In view of the lack of firepower and the advantage of the aviation force that can quickly supplement firepower, he put forward new construction requirements for the Army Aviation Force. , It is required to increase the construction of the Army’s aviation force. As a result, military spending will increase again.

Wang Jian was very satisfied with this. After listening, he nodded and expressed his satisfaction, but Wei Liao shook his head. He was very dissatisfied with this, or felt that the General Staff really didn't understand the Prime Minister's Mansion. It's a decision. What the Prime Minister’s Office needs is a system that can gradually reduce and change the current situation of the Army under the current funding situation, rather than a large-scale military expansion. This requires the Army to be on the current scale. Under the circumstances of reducing military expenditures, some effective measures have been taken to slow down foreign operations and improve the combat effectiveness of the Qin army. However, Lieutenant General Li Chun's army thinking obviously cannot meet this demand.

Next is Bai Dong's election. He put forward a concept of his own, "asymmetric fire war." Or "asymmetric war."

"As we all know, there are many countries, tribal alliances, and tribes around our Qin State." Bai Dong said.

"The weapons used by these countries are different. From the current point of view, the use of gunpowder weapons and firearms reach the level of the Qin Army. The Qin Army has no such opponents. With regard to firearms, we are far away from the enemy. In the back, this kind of firearm advantage caused an absolute imbalance in power. We have seen data that one of our companies can easily resist the use of cold weapons and weapons, as well as the enemy’s attack with a small amount of firearms. The contrast is about three thousand to one hundred and five." Bai Dong said.

"This shows that war is asymmetrical. If we continue to increase our forces, the probability of our victory is very high, but this does not mean that we will be able to use military victory to gain political initiative. Reasons It is that logistics supplies. We have too many reasons for the slow progress of the war. We lost in logistics supplies. This is our shortcoming. It can be said that we have the advantage of firearms, but military logistics supply transportation has become a shortcoming of ours. No matter how we increase the firepower, but the logistical supply, this shortcoming has not been solved." Bai Dong said.

"Since we have gained the initiative in asymmetric warfare, we don't have to continue to worry about things getting worse as we imagined. Qin has a huge firearm advantage, and we can maintain this for a long time to come. This advantage is difficult to surpass, so we must make up for our shortcomings to achieve this." Bai Dong said.

"Our shortcoming is in logistical supplies. The problem we should solve should be in logistical supplies. This mainly depends on railway construction, or in other words, the need for trade to stimulate the construction of railway branches. At the beginning, I thought that the military could export A certain number of firearms advantage, because such asymmetrical wars have brought great revolutionary confrontation, and weak countries only need to equip a large number of firearms to form a power countermeasure. This is against traditional countries, regions, and Caused drastic military and political changes. Qin State is the leader of this change. We take the initiative and rely on railway construction. We can export such firepower on a large scale. And it has become an important force for checks and balances and development of localities. Use asymmetry to break the local balance. Let Qin take the lead again." Bai Dong waved his arm, using credible body language to indicate that this theory has a large market. This is a brand new signal. This is different from the past, this is a very favorable development situation.
