The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 2411: Smuggling by the army

Qi State, Tian Heng's general mansion.

"Sir, good news. The southern tribes are very interested in our rocket weapons. They think that after Goguryeo is attacked, they will further retaliate. Therefore, we need to import a large number of rockets from our hands, as well as various All kinds of weapons." A colonel ran in excitedly and reported.

"Well. In this case, yes, we have a lot of inventory, and we will release them directly. In addition, we collect all our guns and sell them to those southern tribes. We need them to provide more various resources and population. The labor force, as well as all kinds of leather and ginseng, can be settled as long as they are valuable things." Tian Heng said with a newspaper disapproving.

"Yes, sir." The colonel nodded to acknowledge.

Binhai District, the 217th Regiment of the Qi Army. This group is a second-class group of Qi. The group has only 1,500 people, which is far below the standard group of 2,500 people. If it is an enhanced group, the number may exceed 3,500 people. , But they are only a second-class regiment, when fighting, they can only line up behind the offensive team. A regiment like theirs should have been abolished, but the Qi army could not dissolve so many troops at once, because many parts of the Qi State could not absorb these soldiers. The soldiers distributed land, and every household had land, and the distribution was almost the same. With the addition of military officers and noncommissioned officers, Qi still needs a lot of land. Originally, Qi has no shortage of land. As long as Jiaozhou is used, most of the soldiers’ land problems can be solved. However, Qi is lost. In the Jiaozhou area, the land of Qi is not much. In the case of insufficient funds and land, Qi cannot dissolve so many troops at once. Therefore, there can only be such a thousand or so garrison groups. Their purpose is the nature of the police, that is, to be responsible for public order and some trivial matters.

"Hurry up, move fast, lift those box heads out, hurry up." Commander Song Ku commanded it from his regiment's armory, alongside his second battalion commander Chen Rong. He looked a little worried, his expression a little nervous, or more worried.

"Sir, is it too much this time?" Chen Rong, the commander of the second battalion, asked in a low voice.

"Are you too much?" Head Song Ku said with some displeasure.

"This is more than last time, sir. If this goes on, the average soldier will have five talents with a gun, and the others don't know what to do. There are also military uniforms. These, if you ask about it, we really can't solve it." Second Battalion Commander Chen Rong said with great embarrassment. His battalion is responsible for the whole group's care, that is, they have to guard all the logistics materials. But the head of the regiment kept deducting a lot of materials from the materials, and he didn't follow the order every time. If he checked from above, his situation would be very passive. This is very detrimental to him, and he knows it very well.

"I know that your benefits are indispensable. I will report some more losses, and then the above will make up for what you lack. I know you have difficulties, but you have to consider my difficulties. Let’s talk about it. Not last time. Has it benefited you a lot?" said Song Ku, the head of the group. The Qi army owed a lot of salary, and many officers had not received the salary for a long time. It is not especially the middle and lower-level officers. They are in a very difficult situation. They have no land and no salary. Although the food is OK, at least they are not hungry, but they always feel that something is missing, so they Thinking of the weapons in their hands, some soldiers have already expressed their actual actions. For example, they will steal weapons from other troops and sell them to the black market. Pirates and all kinds of armed forces need weapons. These weapons are the weapons in their hands, and the officers will take actions from the arsenal. Reporting losses, deliberately losing a batch of weapons and materials, and then they took the opportunity to sell them to arms dealers on the black market. In this way, military officers became the largest profit group, and Song Ku did this.

"Think about the future. You can serve as a soldier for a lifetime, and the officers can't keep it. Tell you, this colonel of mine won't last long. Don't mention your major. There are only more than 1,000 people in our regiment. There are more than two thousand five hundred people. We can’t get to the house. We must be removed. Then, you will have to leave and go home. There is nothing, nothing. While you are in the army, you can quickly get some money and go back. Buy some land and you will have your daughter-in-law. Children and grandchildren can enjoy the blessing." Song Ku persuaded.

"Sir, it's just doing this." Chen Rong nodded and agreed with what his chief said, but he was still a little worried. After all, there was his chief on the top, and it would be very ugly if it was checked.

"I know, I will make more losses. Anyway, there are still many regiments doing this. You know the 111 regiment, they are the main regiment, with more than 3,000 people. Their head, with a big stroke, Killed more than 500 guns and 20 artillery. Our more than 100 rifles, some clothing, materials, etc., are nothing. It's nothing." Song Ku said.

"Okay. I will report some more losses to you, so you don't have to worry too much." Song Ku then directed his people to move the supplies. Chen Rong wanted to say something, but he had no choice but to nod his head in agreement.

In Qi State, there are still many regiments that have joined the business of selling arms privately. There are many reasons, but the overall decline in military treatment is a major problem. This has a lot to do with Qi’s current economy. Tian Heng may know a little about this, but he can’t change the current situation. The first thing Qi has to get rid of is a large amount of military expenditure, which has already exceeded. Their affordability is a huge burden for them, which makes them very embarrassed.

The huge army has become their biggest burden. To solve the army problem, we must first have land. Qi has lost a Jiaozhou. The loss of the Jiaozhou region makes Qi extremely passive. Qi needs to reconsider its economic policy. In other words, they must have a new development path. This is what Tian Heng is most concerned about.

Qi’s economic development is far greater than the problem of Qi’s army, which has surpassed their cognition level. This requires Qi to solve the problem on its own. Qi Guo is choosing his own economic direction.
