The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

"If we secretly mine, we cannot bypass the Dawan government. At the same time, we control the area and need the support of the Dawan government." Meng Yi looked at Shangwen and said.

"Well, I know this. We need a lot of oil, insulators need oil, and sealing materials also need oil. Without oil, we can't do anything." Shang Wen said after listening to what Meng Yi said.

"Oil is the important starting point of Qin's second industrial revolution. Without these, it is really difficult for us to develop." Shang Wen said.

"We all understand this, but the crux of the problem is that we don't have as many oil resources. The areas we explore are still in peace, unless our marching route is to get there." Meng Yi said.

"Well, I thought about it. You're right, we can't avoid this situation anyway. Instead of this, we might as well cooperate with them, but we need to occupy that area until we think we can move in. , Or after achieving our goal, we will stop." Shang Wen said.

"Of course. We also need the cooperation of Dawan people. After all, the railway is very important to us." Shang Wen said. Meng Yi took out a pen to record. He needs to know what Shang Wen's thoughts are. Such a telegram was soon classified again and forwarded to the staff. King Qin also knew the news.

Qin State, the General Staff.

"This is the direct reason why we revised the battle plan." Wang Jian said after reading the telegram from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"I have to say that this reason is very convincing. You know, many places in the Qin State need such things, such as radios. Their sealing materials are derived from petroleum. Qin also has places that produce petroleum, but the output is In comparison, it is a bit small. Qin also discovered oil in the Hexi Corridor area, but it is not enough to meet our rapid development needs. This is an important resource restricting the current development of Qin, although the current demand for mineral resources is satisfied The rate is still relatively high. However, with the deepening of development, this demand will become greater and greater." Yang Duanhe said.

"Don't explain to me what economic needs are, I know you will read books on economics again recently." Wang Jian shook his head and said.

"Political needs are the target needs of our operation. Political needs come from economic needs. Since Qin needs that area, we will occupy that area, but in that case, the marching route is a bit biased. How can it be done? To achieve this kind of face is what we should consider." Wang Jian looked at the sand table and said. Wang Jian looked at the area where oil appeared. It was the Caspian Sea. There were oil resources there. Shang Wen knew that there were oil resources. Therefore, Qin State had to spare no effort to develop there.

Compared with the Middle East, the oil in the Caucasus is very remote. The most important thing is that the population there is not very large and it cannot attract the attention of others. This is what Shang Wen thought.

Port Seth.

"Damn it, the Seth people actually learned to attack." A sergeant scolded. They are rebuilding their fortifications in order to deal with possible sneak attacks.

The sneak attack by the Seth made the South Korean soldiers realize that there was a big loophole in their defense. This loophole came from the opponent's trench tactics, and they kept digging trenches. The Koreans have nothing to do with this unless they use a large number of mortars for bombardment, but there is no possibility of such equipment being shipped from the country. It takes at least three months to reach here.

"It's best to be careful. Didn't you see it? We need to raise our defensive fortress, and form a lot of defensive gullies below, where the mines will be rearranged." An ensign said helplessly. He is an officer, but officers must also participate in their defensive fortresses.

After the South Koreans suffered continuous sneak attacks, they decided to rebuild their defensive fortresses. The new defensive circle must be able to prevent sneak attacks by the Seth people, who use their trenches as close cover. They will launch sneak attacks at night and then attack and occupy the positions of the Koreans. In this regard, the Koreans can only respond passively. Although they have dispersed a lot of reserve teams, such problems cannot be completely resolved, that is, they cannot be completely isolated. The other person approaches himself.

"Our chief studied the Seth battle carefully. They felt that as long as we build a large trench in front of the position. Then bury more barbed wire and mines in the trench. In this way, we can avoid sneak attacks. At the same time. , We also need to heighten our fortifications. On it, we can see how the Seth’s military offensive is. In that case, we can take advantage of the range of our rifles, call them one by one, and kill each other. "The ensign said. But he still has to work, because the number of engineers is small and the recruited labor force is not enough. The most important thing is that this defensive project is very costly and requires everyone to participate. Instead of passive defense like this, it is better to actively participate in defensive operations. Officers can inevitably participate in the construction company.

"Sir, do you think this is okay? The Seth people also have cannons, and the fortifications we built are as high as the fortifications. If they planted explosives, wouldn't we be blown up?" The sergeant asked curiously.

"I am also surprised at this point, but there is no way. This is war. We are soldiers. Obey the order. Perhaps this is of great benefit to us." The other party said helplessly.

"Yes. Sir." The sergeant nodded. Even the officers came down to repair the fortifications. They can't say anything anymore.

"Damn, what is this thing, it's so sticky, it's not someone who pulled the stool here." Some soldiers were annoyed by the smell of leaving here, and they dug up something sticky.

"Damn it, I dug it too. It's so hateful." Some second-class soldiers also turned to leave here, and they looked at the things in the trench with a disgusting look.

"What is this?" many soldiers complained.

"This. It seems to be asphalt, which is the kind of thing that paves roads. I know this kind of thing, but." At this moment, a corporal came over and grabbed a small piece of it and smelled it. There are many places where such things are not Normal.

"Asphalt? No one is building roads here. How could there be asphalt? Did you read it wrong. How could there be asphalt?" A lieutenant who came over at this time asked curiously. He also thought it was very strange. How could there be asphalt? .

"Sir, it's not wrong. I repaired roads in the past. This is asphalt, and the smell of asphalt is like this, but I don't know why asphalt appears here," the other party said.

"Oh. Does this affect us?" the lieutenant asked at this time.

"This can be avoided as long as it doesn't ignite or the smell is unbearable." The lieutenant said.

"Well. If that's the case, then it is." The soldier continued.

"Okay. I'll report such a thing to the top." The lieutenant nodded and said. The lieutenant finally found a chance to rest. He quickly wrote a report and handed it to him. After all, they didn't think it was a normal situation to find asphalt.

Generally speaking, if the asphalt layer is found, it can be said that there is oil below. However, it takes a certain amount of drilling to find here. The port of Seth is located in an oil-rich area. The oil resources here are very rich. The most important thing is that they are all shallow oil. It is not an exaggeration to say, As long as they are willing, drilling wells can produce oil. This is very good news for Koreans. But they have not attracted such attention.

Inside Guo Xiang's office.

"Playing the pitch. Who knows what the meaning of pitching is." Guo Xiang looked at the report and threw it aside.

"Sir." When an assistant heard this, he boldly stepped forward and said.

"What's the matter?" Guo Xiang looked at each other curiously, he didn't know what the other party wanted to say.

"Sir, this may be very abnormal. From the perspective of mining, asphalt appears, which is generally related to oil. I have read such books and they have said this relationship. And there is." The assistant said.

"Go on." Guo Xiang asked curiously.

"I heard that there is a large amount of oil produced here, and now we need some oil resources in the country. I think we can extract some oil here to meet our domestic demand. If bitumen appears, it may be the discovery of oil, even though we cannot yet. I'm sure if the oil layer has been discovered. However, I think we should send a telegram to ask, and if necessary, we can ask an expert to come and have a look.

"Yes. You reminded me that this may be the case. We need oil, which is very important to us. If there is no oil, it is very likely that we can't do anything." Guo Xiang nodded and said.

"You are right. Locally, I heard that the Seth people are easy to use fire when fighting. They are all good at playing with fire. We have to be careful. These oil layers must be cleared out. Okay. I see. , I’m going to draw up a telegram and send it to the country so that they can send a few experts over to see if this kind of thing should be done.” Guo Xiang said.

South Korea, Ministry of War.

"It may be found that there is oil and asphalt underground." An officer looked at the report in his hand. He didn't know if he should pass such a telegram to his officer to see. Maybe they knew what to do? However, the officer thought about it and felt that this was not a big deal.
