Bangla. The Minister of War looked at the report in his hand, then looked at the businessman in front of him.

"For this new bullet, can it really exert such great power?" The Secretary of War looked at the report in his hand and asked the businessmen on the opposite side. They are business representatives of an arms trading company, and they provide a great power. Bullet, this kind of bullet is a flower bullet. In order to further resolve the war in northern Bangladesh, they had to adopt some new technologies to solve the war problem.

"Yes, the power is very powerful, as long as you hit the opponent, the opponent will lose combat effectiveness." The merchant said.

"Well, we can place an order, but we must wait until the results of the battle on the front line before we can make any further orders. I see, the time is just a few days later." The Secretary of War put down the report.

"Okay, but I believe our bullets can exert more power." The businessman nodded and said.

On the front line of Mengla, the Three-Three-Step Corps defensive position, a new warehouse has just been established behind them. They must defend the warehouse behind. The warehouse is related to the safety of all people. They must do their best to protect, otherwise, their situation will change greatly.

"This bullet is different," a private soldier said after opening a box of new bullets and observing it.

"What?" a sergeant walked over quickly and asked.

"Yes, it's different from the previous bullets. Did you get some bad bullets for us?" The other soldiers came over and asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, don't worry." At this moment, a second lieutenant officer walked over and said.

"Sir, this bullet?" the sergeant asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, there will be no trouble. This is a new bullet. This bullet is very powerful and can kill the opponent with one shot. As long as you hit it," the ensign said.

"Yes, okay, let's try it." A soldier reluctantly accepted. To them. There is no difference between bullets and bullets, as long as you can kill the enemy. Because soldiers are unlikely to make a difference to the wounds caused by bullets.

"Swish. Boom. Boom." Just then the shells exploded and the battle started. Although the soldiers were exhausted, they joined the battle. The new battle began.

"Tututu. Tututu." The soldiers of the Menggla uprising crazily rushed over, and the battle was furious. It was this crazy offensive that the Mengla native soldiers made a major breakthrough. This may be the biggest bomb attack.

"Suddenly. Suddenly." However, the Koreans also increased their firepower, and they also used large-caliber cannons. This type of machine gun was originally used on battleships, but after being disassembled, it was sent here urgently. Coupled with the firepower of the machine gun, this made the Korean firepower network for the first time a long-term match.

"Puff puff." The Mengla soldier who came over was hit by the flying bullet directly in his chest. The position of the bullet hit was very accurate. It hit the opponent's Hu's chest. This is the critical place. However, usually, South Korea The bullet equipped by a person will directly penetrate the past and hit the one behind. It is unlikely that the one in front will cost a lot of casualties. However, this time is different. The bullet caused a lot of damage. Loss, because they were using a flower bullet, and the bullet directly hit the opponent's key position, with only a small mouth in the front and a big mouth in the back, so that the opponent was killed all at once.

"Tututu. Tututu." Rifles and machine guns kept firing, and the Mengla people continued to charge, but their casualties were still increasing. In addition, the Koreans used new bullets, causing Mengla casualties. It also rose rapidly.

"Boom. Boom. Boom." The 32nd South Korean Infantry Division, which had contracted its forces, increased its firepower. When the Mengla were exhausted from launching an offensive, their firepower formed a wall of blocking firepower in the rear. In this way, even if the Menglais’ attack was blocked, the Koreans not only improved their skills, but they also improved. In addition to their tactics, for example, the use of firepower is a brand new innovation. Without this innovation, it would be difficult for the new South Korean army to resist such an attack.

Qin State, Xianyang, Prime Minister's Mansion.

"The Dawan people and the Shah people have finally cooperated. Although their cooperation conditions are still under negotiation, this is a good thing for the Shah people." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"In this way, the Parthians can fight with all their strength. They can launch an offensive from the north. This offense can achieve our strategic goals. Petroleum." Meng Yi said.

"In this case, our oil reserves can be further increased." Meng Yi said. Qin’s oil price rose again. Because of the war’s concern, the Koreans needed to use a large number of ships for Bangla. As a result, the transportation capacity was greatly reduced. At the same time, because of the long-distance transportation, this would lead to oil. Further improvement, but fortunately there is certain good news. The oil production near Zhang Xiong Island is rapidly increasing. If such oil production is not supported, Qin’s oil reserves will be rapidly reduced, and the price of oil It will continue to rise, which is the worst news for Qin.

"However, we have not solved the fundamental problem very well. The Qin State needs a larger oil production area. Without such an oil production area, for us, it is still impossible to achieve further improvement." Shang Wen said To.

"The Ministry of War has brought some good news. Our second wave of expeditions has reached the Caspian Sea. There is a lot of oil production there. It can solve some of our problems. We are moving forward from the periphery. Solve our oil production. Question." Meng Yi said.

"But the problem is that we still need to invest more money. The transportation problem. We have production capacity but cannot transport it. This problem is still very serious. The North is clamoring to build a new railway line to solve this problem. Difficulties. This is a huge test for us." Meng Yi said.

"Because the government needs to invest more funds to build the railway, the construction of the northern railway is very difficult. We can only occupy there, but we cannot say that we will solve the problems there." Meng Yi said to Shangwen To.

Regarding the construction of the Northern Railway, some railway companies have decided not to participate, because they know that the construction of the Northern Railway is actually very difficult. It is precisely because of this difficulty that they are unwilling to do so. This is for them. Therefore, the construction of such a difficult railway will take longer to resolve. However, the northern parliamentarians and businessmen believed that they should build such a railway. Although the direct purpose is to oil, after the oil resources are resolved, they can also solve their control of more land in the north. This is the opinion of the north. But the problem is that Qin’s financial strength is very limited. Judging from its current capabilities, it will take at least five years for Qin’s financial strength to reluctantly build such a railway. The scale of investment is still very large. This is very important to the Qin government. In other words, it is still a relatively unacceptable project.

"I know that we have some difficulties, but for us, such difficulties must be resolved. If we cannot resolve such things, our troubles will become even greater." Shang Wen said.

"So, we must make a good plan to solve such a problem, and such a problem is for us. If it is not solved well, it will cause great difficulty for us." Meng Yi said.

"There is also a telegram from the Admiralty. In the telegram, they crossed a strait in the north and they found another continent. Although the telegram was intermittent, they still used the telegram to say that they found a new piece of land. In the mainland of China, the Admiralty believes that they should increase the cost for such development. Because the land there is extremely barren, but there are so many places that have not yet been developed." Meng Yi said.

Shangwen was thinking about the issue of the Ministry of War, and Meng Yi put forward a telegram from the Ministry of the Navy, which made Shangwen embarrassed. Qin State is expanding unprecedentedly in history. To the west, their constant expeditions have reached the Caspian Sea, even though they The direct goal of Qin is oil. However, occupying more land in the North and the Western Regions is their most hoped result, especially the King of Qin. A huge map in the Palace of Xianyang is marking the amount and scale of land occupied by the Qin State. In those newly occupied lands, their own states have not yet been established, because the population there is sparse, and the control of Qin people has dropped a lot. However, this does not mean that Qin will give up there. On the contrary, Qin is actively planning Create some new states. In the east, Qin’s navy directly crossed the Bering Strait, and they entered the Americas. Their expeditions were very bold. They had penetrated into a whole new field, which was a whole new area for Qin. It is also the biggest test of Qin. But Qin State is not only an expedition to reach this place, even if it is over. He has to explore further, which usually means that they need to make greater expeditions. This will cost a lot of money, but Qin's financial ability is not yet able to satisfy the opponent at once.

Shangwen worries about this problem. If this problem is not solved, it will be difficult for Qin to expand in the east and west directions.

"Such a thing is very difficult. Our expansion, the expansion of the Admiralty and the War Department is too fast. A fast westward, a fast eastward, we need to build railways on land, but the cost of railways is very high, and The Admiralty, their idea is to further expand the scale of their expeditions, at least they need new warships to solve such problems." Meng Yi said embarrassingly.

"In this way, they still need more funds. The financial situation. It will be very bad. Although we have used a lot of bonds to solve their problems, our scale continues to expand. In terms of it, it is the most difficult thing to solve." Meng Yi said worriedly.

Shang Wen sat quietly. He was thinking about some issues. The expansion of east and west requires great financial strength. The Qin government’s approach is correct. They cut taxes. Qin’s economic potential is great and its development is also very good. These are all due to the benefits of their tax reduction, but these are not enough. Qin’s economy has not been able to increase taxes to solve financial problems, and expedition expenses are still very large, which is also very difficult for Qin’s challenge. As a result, Qin must increase taxes to solve this problem. Shangwen is caught in a dilemma.

"If taxation is not adopted, I think the only way is to mortgage Qin’s assets to solve such a problem. We can mortgage part of the currency issuance rights to the bank and then do such things, but after the expansion, we What will you get? And banks, do they have such sufficient funds to do such things. Such things as expeditions can only be done by the government. But this kind of difficulty is still relatively large. For us, it is a A big test." Meng Yi said.

"It's better for us to wait. In this case, we need to carefully consider our situation here." Shang Wen thought about it. The bankers of Qin State cannot control Qin State’s banknote issuance right for the time being, because the government’s control ability is still relatively strong. However, the expansion of east and west will weaken Qin State’s financial capabilities. At the same time, a problem for future development is also In front of Qin State. First, Qin State cannot levy taxes. Once the taxation is too high, it will inevitably affect the development of Qin State’s economy. This is the long-term sustainability. The reason why Qin State Bonds can hold more people is because Qin Because of the continuous improvement of the country’s economy, once Qin’s economic development slows, this will inevitably affect the issue of Qin’s bond creditworthiness. This is a difficult problem that Shangwen had to consider.

Second, Qin still needs to expand. However, after the expansion, oil can indeed bring greater oil benefits to Qin. However, it will take some time. Railway investment, and Qin controls what is there. The ability is very weak. In other words, the Qin State needs to strengthen control over there. In this way, it will require more population migration, how much is this number, and how much will it cost. These aspects of the Qin State all need to be considered.

Third, the Qin State controls the income of these areas. If the income can be made up in time, this may not be a big problem, but if the income cannot be obtained, the Qin State may lose the right to issue banknotes. In that case, the Qin government will lose its control, which is extremely bad news for the Qin government. Shangwen must evaluate what kind of problems will develop after these things.

In fact, this is a balanced relationship among the three balances of land, population, and income. Shangwen is currently unable to maintain the three balances, because an important factor is lacking. population.

Xianyang Palace. King Qin is looking at the huge map. This map of King Qin has been changed twelve times in a row. This time it is the largest clothing. The Xianyang Palace has been remodeled. The original low palace has begun to expand, and the wooden structure has been carefully taken care of. It was demolished, and then reinforced cement pillars were used for reinforcement, and expensive marble was used for decoration on the exterior, but this still did not show the majesty and gorgeousness of the Qin Palace. Because Xianyang Palace still looked a little low, in front of that huge map, the map was already as high as three people. King Qin needed to stand on a special ladder to see some small areas. That was the territory of the empire, and it was also some of the final small towns under the empire's governance. They were just a point on the map, but for King Qin, that was a place where they lived.

"Population. It's still a population problem. The land has expanded too much." King Qin said with emotion.

"My lord, the population of Qin is not too small. It has expanded to 30 million people. This number is already very remarkable." Zhao Gao said cautiously.

"Thirty million is a lot. But think about how many of them are babies, they still need to wait to be fed, widows have to wait at least ten years for them to grow up to adults. At this time, widows can't afford to wait. "Qin Wang still said anxiously.

Qin's territory is very large, but the population is relatively weak. In the past few years, Qin's birth rate has grown like a blowout. Every household has at least ten children, of course. Ordinary people also have their own concubines, some of them are mixed, but they are all just babies. There is still a problem with their survival, how could they suddenly expand. This is a great trouble for Qin State.

"The population is still too small. Can you think of a way to solve the population problem? The Qin State’s large territory, the Navy Department and the War Department have done a good job recently, expanding a lot of land, but the few people want too much land and the population But there are serious shortcomings. No one can watch these lands, and in the end it belongs to others." King Qin said anxiously. Qin State has always encouraged childbirth, and giving birth to men will give more rewards, and the country has reduced a lot of taxes for the born population. In fact, to support a country’s population, Qin’s husband and wife don’t have to bear too much burden. On the contrary, the country’s financial power has always been tilted here. This is why Qin’s economy is improving, but Qin’s financial power is constantly weak. It is because of the population that the new generation of Qin is under great pressure, and Qin has expanded its population several times. And most of them are babies.

"My lord, we can also absorb some other ethnic groups and races to join us in Qin. We also need them to do some things, such as the Huns, the Anran tribe, or other people with merit." Zhao Gao suggested at this time. For these ethnic groups, Qin can only keep the population of Qin sufficient by absorbing them. However, if a national problem lies in front of Qin, if this problem is not solved, they will still not be Qin people. Because they are the nation first, and then the country.
