Zhao State, Handan, Zhao State Army Military Academy, this is Zhao State’s higher military academy. They are mainly used to train some staff officers or special officers, such as artillery officers, engineer officers and so on. Only the Army Officer School is the place where junior officers are trained.

"Sir, by studying military history, we know the concepts of strategy, battle, and tactics." A young major officer stood up and said. Li Mu looked at the major officer quietly.

With the large-scale popularization of paper and the rapid development of various disciplines, the current disciplines are indeed developing in this way. Many disciplines have begun to develop independently and systematically. For example, the previous smelting has begun to develop a metal smelting system, and steel is only one of them. In addition, there are various alloys, such as the current popular aluminum alloy. Zhao Guo also has his own aluminum alloy, which is obtained by electrolysis. However, this kind of electrolysis only exists in the laboratory, and mass production is obviously not suitable because Zhao Guo cannot provide such a huge power system. In addition, there are more factors restricting Zhao Guo's inability to develop large-scale aluminum, which may be due to the increase in demand.

In addition, the development of various disciplines is very fast. During this period of time, influenced by Qin's academic research, division of disciplines has become a hot thing, and science has become the most enthusiastic thing about division of disciplines. Many countries have begun to focus on talents in this area, not only the original craftsmanship, but they can provide technical support for the development of many countries.

The same is true for military science. A large number of new weapons have long changed the original combat methods. For example, occupying the commanding heights, the artillery era may become a good method. However, with the rapid development of artillery, especially the Qin artillery Already in the age of breech gun loading, their curved shooting can hide the artillery positions far away. Facing such an advantage, the military impact on Zhao Guo is enormous. They urgently need an academic that can surpass Qin in other areas, such as tactics. Battle. These are all carefully cultivated by the Qin State Military Academy. Therefore, officers of the State of Zhao have great officer qualities. But another thing is being ignored by them, this is strategy.

"Zhao's strategy is development." Li Mu said. Li Mu was very surprised by this, because Zhao Guo's officers learned a lot. They are mainly engaged in military studies, and they do not have much contact with strategy.

"What I want to know is, where did you know the word strategy?" Li Mu asked.

"This comes from the Qin State Military Academy. However, this term is more of some social universities in the State of Qin, because they believe that their prime minister, that is, the prime minister of Qin State Shangwen, is making up for it in other ways. The success of Qin’s military strategy, for example, they will assist some countries’ armies and let them form a country, and then through control of the economy, Qin provides a broad market and various resources for Qin’s country. And Qin can achieve their strategic goals by controlling their economy. Although it seems that the people of Qin are expanding slowly, in fact, Qin is digesting these favorably. In contrast, the development of South Korea and Chu It looks extremely savage," said the major officer.

"Yeah." Li Mu nodded for the other party to continue. Many officers looked at their **** of war Li Mu. However, Li Mu was not interested in this title, because he knew that Zhao Guo could not support a large-scale war.

"They expanded extremely brutally. They sent troops to occupy the city-states of the Western Continent, and then established colonies there. Although many places are barren land, their barbaric behavior can bring great support to their financial funds. This kind of support is conducive to their development of their own economy. Although it seems very barbaric, it is very effective." The officer said.

"Look at Qi Guo again, they seem to be doing this too, but they don't know what Zhao Guo has to do to achieve this goal, where is our Zhao Guo's strategy?" the major asked.

"This." Li Mu just shook his head.

"This question is very difficult to answer." Li Mu said. Because he knows that Qin’s military strategy and their national strategy are integrated. This is mainly due to their country’s institutional system. Qin is actually a group where civilian officials and generals can coexist peacefully. There is a large number of military officers. Promotion, and their interests and the interests of war are interdependent. Civil officials need to safeguard the various interest systems of the Qin State. In this way, they can always balance the various interests of the country, and then formulate a more satisfactory strategy. This also explains why the development of the Qin State requires soldiers and Two types of merchants are constantly launching offensives, one is military offense and the other is economic offense.

But Zhao Guo is different. There is a big gap between soldiers and civilian officials. Even though they have absorbed Qin's electoral system, their prime minister can be elected through elections, which prevents the prime minister's position from relying too much on King Zhao. This makes it possible for many people to be in position. At the same time, a large number of parliamentarian positions give the nobles leeway. However, the contradiction between officers and civilian officials is still not reconciled, because officers control the national army, and they may not play the role of civilian officials at any time. In games, they can rebel. There are several bad examples of Zhao Jun in history, so civilian officials do not trust military officers.

With this kind of distrust, in the military, the national strategy of civilian officials can never be consistent with the military strategy of soldiers. Faced with such a situation, Zhao Guo himself cannot solve it, because this kind of distrust itself is difficult to eliminate.

"The term strategy is of great significance to the country, but it requires a peaceful coexistence between Qin soldiers and civilian officials, because soldiers cannot do without military support. I think you all know that the situation of soldiers may be different. The demand for military expenditures in the war has become greater and greater. If civilians cannot obtain very favorable economic benefits, then we soldiers will not have the right to obtain superior weapons. This is the choice. Perhaps. There is no strategy in itself. A lot of variability." Li Mu said. Many officers have difficulty understanding.

South Korea, Xinzheng.

"This telegram is forwarded directly to Chu State." Han Shu said after reading the telegram from the 34th Infantry Regiment of the New South Korean Army.

"Yes. King." The assistant on the side received and received. Regarding the South Korean New Army’s landing by the Chu State Marine Corps. Han Shu believes that this matter can only allow the people of Chu to regress. He must let the people of Chu understand what their situation is. The Western Continent is huge and there are many places to occupy. It can be said that these places are now Some borderless lands, they can occupy those places at will. There is no need to keep robbing South Korea of ​​those areas of vested interests that have been occupied.

So far, South Korea is not ready to fight against Chu. At the same time, the Chu people themselves were not prepared.

Chu State, Pengcheng.

"Damn it." Fan Zeng was also very annoyed when he saw the Korean telegram that was forwarded. Because the Marine Corps was not directly instructed by him.

"The Western Continent is so big, why they keep occupying such a place and don't let it go. It's just a bunch of fools." Fan Zeng said to Chen Ping, who just came in to report on the work.

"Prime Minister, maybe the Marine Corps made a mistake on this matter." Chen Ping said.

"Of course I hope they got it wrong. But as far as the entire Western Continent is concerned, the Chu people still occupy very few places. At the beginning, they only occupied places like Burma and Taizhou, and they were concerned about the Western Continent. There are not many, but with the establishment of the governor, some aristocratic troops began to go mad. The Koreans had already occupied there before. At this time, we went to fight with the Koreans?" Fan Zeng said.

"Yeah." Chen Ping just nodded.

"We must let our military know and understand this. The State of Chu does not currently have the absolute strength to go to war with South Korea. For example, the Koreans can control their submarine cables, but we don't even have the technology for submarine cables. This requires cooperation with Koreans. Not only that, but we still need Korean skills in many places, such as their shipbuilding skills." Fan Zeng said. This is what Chen Ping reported.

Some businessmen in the Chu state began to realize this. In Wuyue area, not only some farms, but also the development of plantation economy, some processing labor-intensive industries also began to appear, for example, processing glass products, a large amount of raw materials come from Zhao. , But some fine processing still requires a lot of manpower, and with the export of a large number of commodities, these things greatly stimulate their production. In addition to glass, there is also a large amount of papermaking, as well as the manufacture of various light industrial products. Clothing, footwear and socks have become the largest trade export commodities.

Some merchants started to turn from trading to become factory owners. Some of them aimed at the cable project, because the technology of wire drawing is not very high. They can introduce a lot of equipment and then they can manufacture it crazy, but the submarine cable is very Need such things, once they can make these things on a large scale that Chu has never had before.

This is what Chen Ping reported. Maybe it won’t take long before they can get their own submarine cables.

"Forget it, I will personally supervise them for such a thing," Fan Zeng said. Then he drafted the telegram himself.

Qin State, Xianyang.

"It seems that in diplomacy, we can't meet our needs." Wei Liao said after reading the telegram and putting it on the table.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, this is indeed the case." Shang Wen nodded. Qin and the Anxi people just reached a painless agreement. The Qin people and the Anxi people formally established diplomatic relations, and both of them sent ambassadors to each other. Conduct diplomatic activities. The people of Qin respect the interests of the Anxi people, the land they occupy in Dawan, and the Anxi people also respect the fact that the people of Qin control Xindawan. The two sides reached such a diplomatic document without pains and pains. However, there was no further discussion on the loan and the related commercial peace talks. It seems that the Parthian side suddenly lost interest in this aspect, which made Meng Yi Feeling a little annoyed, but had to sign such a diplomatic document, because they still don't want such a thing to be done too quickly. Perhaps the Shabbats have not yet made such preparations.

"As far as we can see, we still don’t know what happened to the rest. For example, whether the war between the rest of the world and Seth was going well, or whether they reached some kind of agreement, but what I know is that we must Find a way to take some measures, for example, can you help the Seth people create some trouble for the Parthians. Let them drag them into a difficult war." Wei Liao suggested.

"But we have no direct contact with the Seth people." Shang Wen said.

"No, no, we have. The Koreans seem to have arrived in Seth, and their telegrams seem to have been laid there. Most importantly, they seem to have paid attention to this. If the Koreans don’t do this, we Will support another country to do this, for example, Chu State, they seem to be very interested in expansion. I think we must implement this matter as soon as possible. Because there is too far away. Moreover, our navy is still unable to do so. Arrange to such a far place." Wei Liao said. This is the first time that Wei Liao has said this to Shang Wen. Perhaps Wei Liao has already realized the importance of the navy from his subconscious mind. Because Qin felt powerless to Seth.

"Do this, okay?" Shang Wen asked Wei Liao. He felt that it was not very good to stir up the conflict between South Korea and Chu.

"If we can develop our own navy, we don't have to do this." Wei Liao said.

"We are just hiring, hiring such a relationship." Wei Liao said.

"Okay. This is also a good way to save costs." Shang Wen said.

Yueshi, on the battlefield on the southern front.

"I don’t know why, sir, we started the offensive yesterday. The Indians’ defenses are still very tough, but I don’t know what happened today. Yesterday we took a long time and a lot of troops to regain the position. They took it back. The most important thing is that the Indians showed no morale, and their will to fight seemed to disappear all at once." A second lieutenant reported to his officer and a major. They are from Yue's 22nd Infantry Regiment. They are here to retake the Dog Mountain position. For this task, many Yue soldiers were disgusted, but only by getting through here can they regain the supply line. The Indians’ previous offensive was very sharp, and the Yue’s Eighth Cavalry Regiment who defended here suffered a lot of casualties. They One of the battalions was maimed. There were more than 700 cavalry in the whole battalion. In the end, only less than a hundred men remained, and many of them were injured. But now they have regained such a position.

"Damn it, these Indians won't let us fall into it," the major said with his binoculars.

"You can check the position carefully to see if there are any explosives buried below. If we all go up, we may all be killed." The major cautiously issued such an order. Just yesterday they tried to launch an attack. The Indians' defense was very tenacious. They didn't even take the position on the hill, but now, they took it easily, which is very abnormal.

Then the ensign reported that there was no abnormality in the position, and the major had to send such a message by telegram.

In the headquarters of Yueshi Moran, the staff is busy marking the new situation on this day, and Moran is looking at the telegram in his hand.

"I think there may be some changes in the situation." Meng Ping said.

"What's the change?" Moran asked after reading the telegram.

"From the telegram we can see that today we just regained the position, and there is nothing to do. This may have a lot to do with our sending a large number of reinforcements, but normally, the Indians should resist resolutely, such as , They must firmly hold their ground, but we have to pay a high price, but now it seems that their situation does not seem to be like this." Meng Ping said.

"What do you mean?" Moran asked curiously.

"What I think is, maybe the Indians have already realized something. We are in the north and use a lot of airships. That is a new type of weapon. For the Indians, they have never come into contact with such a weapon. For them, it may be a disastrous weapon, and on the southern front, we suddenly launched an offensive, but now, on our southern passage in the main direction, they suddenly became a little weak. This shows that What?" Meng Ping said.

"If they continue to launch an offensive, they should be very powerful. However, now they have abnormally lost the position they have finally taken. This is very abnormal. I think it is very likely that there is a very The big conspiracy, or they realized the danger, they have begun to face their own situation again." Meng Ping said.

"If this is the case, do you think they will retreat?" Moran asked.

"If it were me, I would definitely retreat, but if that happens, our entire southern route will encounter a lot of pressure. After all, the Indians on the opposite side will have a lot of troops. If they squeeze it all at once, We simply cannot bear such pressure." Meng Ping said.

"But now we don't know what's going on with them. But we can know what they think, and let our frontline soldiers capture each other. Interrogate the prisoners." Moran ordered.

"I must know those **** Indians, what they think, maybe they may have a psychological breakdown." Moran said. Meng Ping just nodded in agreement.
