The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Qin State, Xianyang.

"These resters are wolves, they are wolves that can't feed themselves." Shang Wen said annoyedly.

Shangwen felt a little annoyed about the Shabbat's private borrowing with the Shabbat, and then he was helpless. After all, this country looks a little naive.

"With this money, they might as well buy the money into weapons, the Dawan people are really stubborn." Wei Liao said to Shang Wen.

"Okay. Let's not talk about it. Think about what we should do next? Before the Parthians launch an offensive, we must find a way to get some time. The key to the problem is time. Without enough time, we can't do anything. This It is a fact we are facing now." Shang Wen said.

"Prime Minister, I think that relying solely on air power is not enough to deter the rest. At the same time, we need to launch a counterattack. We need some troops to contain them, but not to issue partial mobilization orders. In the north, after all, there are some cavalry. Troops, we can form some reserve cavalry forces, give them certain training, and let them follow us in the battle." Wei Liao suggested.

The General Staff has mentioned this suggestion more than once. In fact, Wang Jian and others have always wanted to test Qin’s mobilization capabilities. In the future, the combat effectiveness of such mobilization capabilities will still be useful, and partial mobilization orders are only limited. In the north, that is, the northern Huns.

"Are the troops a little nervous?" Shang Wen asked.

"Yes. The force is relatively tight, because according to our budget, at most we can only mobilize the force of two mobile infantry divisions there. For the others, we can't use too much force. This is obviously one for us. A big threat. We must have more troops to participate in the battle, otherwise, we can't do anything." Wei Liao said to Shangwen.

"In this case, it seems that we must mobilize them. How many cavalry divisions do we need?" Shang Wen asked.

"Well, I think at least three cavalry divisions. After all, this battle is fighting in the plains. In addition, the staff plan is to take counter-offensive measures to launch an offensive. Only in this way can the current predicament of Qin be completely resolved." Liao said.

Shang Wen knows very well what the so-called counterattack is, that is, if the Qin State wants to completely eliminate the State of Xia, at the very least, it cannot allow the State of Xia to have a great counterattack ability, which greatly weakens the opponent in terms of strength and achieves the purpose of control.

"Yeah. But we still need more servant countries to mobilize the forces of the three cavalry divisions. I suggest that we can also consider the problem from the Tocharian side, and solicit the military strength of the Yueshi people to see if they can Whether they become our partial teachers along the way, at least they can solve our big problems." Shangwen suggested.

"Well. We understand. We will do such a thing." Wei Liao said.

Chu State, the Wuyue Port shipyard area, here is very busy, and some factories are nervously busy, they are busy imitating new-style ships. Although the scale seems to be relatively small, at least they are doing this. After Lu's shipyard took the lead in manufacturing steamships, it quickly applied for technical patents. In this way, they preemptively occupied the technological commanding heights. Shipyards have also seen a huge technological advantage one after another. This advantage is that they can get rid of the limitations of sailing in a real sense. The most important thing is that the ship can be made larger in order to meet some of the military's requirements.

"The military's requirement is to be able to put at least two airships. If a sailing ship is used, it is impossible to meet such a demand, because the military requires rapid operations at sea, and the entire sailing ship is covered with dense masts. Do so.” A ship engineer said, shaking his head. He designed and built dozens of merchant ships and armed them. However, the military’s requirements are very special. They require the production of a warship that can lay down two airships. As a result, it is difficult for the sailing ship to adapt to this new demand change. Because sailboats need a lot of masts, and airships need to be lifted quickly, the most important thing is that the airship is bigger than the sailboat, which is definitely a technical limitation.

"So, what is your suggestion?" Lu Fei asked. She would like to get orders from the military to make a large number of warships, because the profit of merchant ships and armed merchant ships has been further reduced, especially after the establishment of a large number of shipyards in Qi, this situation has further deteriorated, although there are still shipyards. Some profit, but basically it depends on how quickly it is built to maintain profit. In order to keep the shipyard alive. Lu's pheasant aimed at the military market. After all, the military's demand will become very large. As long as there is enough technology, they will definitely need it.

"Using ships, only ships do not have a large number of masts, so we can free up a lot of space. However, the ship as a whole is still unable to do a lot. The reason is that the bearing range of iron beams is limited. If you want to do more The only way is to use steel beams. We can't manufacture this kind of thing from the country of Chu, and we can only import it from the country of Zhao. This is the only way." The engineer said.

"Then import. We need to take this order." Lu Fei decided. At this time, other things can't be considered at all. If she hesitated a little, the order would fly away all at once, and she could not afford such a loss.

"Okay, I understand." The engineer said.

"In this way, the problem has been greatly resolved." The engineer said.

"However. I heard some new technologies. I heard that Koreans are actively using new technologies. For example, they are adapting to welding technology. Will we also start such technology early? After all, if we make iron-clad ships in the future, it will really In the sense of the ironclad ship, the situation will be very beneficial to us." The engineer said.

"Yeah. I know, but there are still many problems that have not been solved. We have built an iron-clad ship. How to solve the power problem? You know, the slow sailing speed is a disaster for us. I think Chu's navy is not yet You need a slow-moving warship like the Qi State Navy to fight, right?" Lu Fei said. For the warships of the Qi State Navy. Lu's pheasant was full of disdain, because it was a low-level warship created by low-level technology, and there was no technology at all. That kind of ship will be seen as a joke, not as an achievement. Lu's Pheasant was full of disdain.
