The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Goguryeo, a disputed area in the northern part of Yan Kingdom, seems quite quiet here. Yan's army surveyed and mapped here, and the Goguryeo people also surveyed here. There was no conflict between the two sides because of surveying and mapping. It seems that both sides are deliberately avoiding the escalation of conflicts. On the surface, neither side seems to have escalated the war. Possibly, but in fact, this situation has not fundamentally changed. They just kept restraint in a planned way. When they did not make the final preparations, they always kept restraint in order to let the war go to their best advantage. The place developed.

If the patrols of the two sides accidentally encounter each other, one side will always deliberately avoid the escalation of the conflict and avoid the other side. The sentries of both sides will point their binoculars at each other and record what they are doing every day. This is a strange confrontation, if not for both sides If the preparation is not completed, he believes that this will never complete such a thing.

State Zhao, Handan, Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"This kind of thing still needs restraint. Before the railway is completely completed, Zhao still hopes that you can exercise restraint. After all, such restraint will be extremely beneficial to you." The Foreign Minister said. .

"I will try to maintain a good diplomatic environment for them," the Foreign Minister said.

"Then I am very grateful to Zhao Guo for his outstanding contribution to us." The Goguryeo Ambassador to Zhao said very gratefully.

"Regarding financial matters, Zhao Guo currently has no extra funds to buy your bonds, but I believe that our government will make up for this in other ways. We will compensate in other ways, for example, Export a batch of artillery to you in order to strengthen your strength in attacking the toughest." The Foreign Minister said. Zhao Guo carefully studied Yan's defenses. They believed that if Goguryeo's current situation was used to attack, they would never be able to break through the opponent's defense. Therefore, the only way was to equip them with more artillery. With such artillery, their offensive capabilities will increase a lot.

"Thank you very much, we will always remember our friendship with Zhao Guo. Long live our friendship." Ambassador Goguryeo said happily. This solved many of their problems. There was news from China that the navy was reluctant to disassemble its artillery and provide it to the army. They believed that this was challenging the dignity of the navy, and they strictly rejected the army's request. As a result, the Army lacks enough artillery for fire coverage or fire support. This is simply the most unacceptable thing for infantrymen. The War Department and the Navy have engaged in a long tug of war, and they fight for it. The large-caliber artillery was converted into a new army artillery.

Goguryeo couldn't produce such large-caliber artillery, they could only produce some 37, and about 50mm artillery. If it is too large, it will be difficult to produce such a caliber. After all, the production technology of large artillery cannot be mastered all at once. And Zhao Guoren sent so many artillery pieces at this time, which made them feel grateful like never before. This is sending charcoal in the snow.

South Korea, Xinzheng. Supreme Command.

"My lord, we have all kinds of evidence to prove that the Zhao Guoren and the Carthaginians have established a certain necessary connection, and they have started the related arms trade." An intelligence officer submitted a report. Han Shu didn't read the report, she could know what Zhao Guoren was doing based on her own feelings.

"These Zhao people are really." Han Shu said.

"My lord, we must take some actions, otherwise, our actions in the Aiji area will be blocked to a certain extent, and in the face of such blocking, more obstacles will be formed." The intelligence official said.

"However, I don't think this is all a bad thing. We should look at it from another angle. This may be a good thing." Han Shu suddenly thought about it and said.

"Good thing? Your Majesty, this will seriously affect our arms exports. Under such circumstances, our arms exports will be greatly reduced." The intelligence official said.

"No, no. You only see this, but you can't see another. The Mediterranean is a new market, and this market has great potential, because many people have never seen such a weapon. Such a weapon is for us , It’s not the most powerful weapon, but for those Mediterranean countries, it’s already the most powerful weapon. They need to import cool weapons while maintaining a balance. In this case, they will buy each other. You need a rifle, you need a machine gun if you buy a rifle, and ammunition consumption is also a huge supplement. Although Zhao Guoren’s market is well developed, they have a good relationship with Carthage, but the enemy of Carthage is the Roma. , They will feel that their safety is threatened. Under such circumstances, will they not buy more weapons?" Han Shu asked his intelligence officer.

"This is indeed the case." Intelligence officials have to admire Han Shu's imagination. Such strange ideas can be thought of. This is indeed not simple. The intelligence officer thought so.

In fact, Han Shu is also bothering this problem. Although they have opened the door to the Mediterranean market, the demand in this market is not as good as South Korea imagined. For example, the promotion of tea has been greatly hindered, mainly The locals are unwilling to accept such things. Silk is a luxury item. It is difficult to promote products of Chu people. Only cotton cloth is good, but the demand is not great. Then there are some other items, such as soap. Paper, these things are acceptable to them, and there are more arms and weapons, but the export volume has not increased in the near future, but only maintained a stable export volume, except for some of the Suez Canal restrictions. That is, there seems to be no large-scale military conflict in the Mediterranean. The root cause of this is the balance of power between the two sides. However, if a large amount of arms and weapons are continuously imported, Han Shu believes that one day, such a balance Will break. Then it caused a huge imbalance. At that time, South Korea would only laugh happily. Therefore, Han Shu adopted a conniving attitude towards Zhao's arms exports. Perhaps without Zhao's arms exports, South Korea seems unable to break this balance. If this situation continues, it will be very unfavorable to the Koreans, because they cannot expand their market in time, which is a very uncomfortable thing for them.

Where the Suez Canal meets in the Mediterranean, the trade here is increasing frantically. There are merchant ships coming and going. They unload a large number of slaves and load them with all kinds of goods. The demand for slaves has become very strong for the Koreans. The price of slaves is also constantly rising. This is a good thing. At least they can maintain a trade balance. Otherwise, a large amount of gold will continue to flow into the hands of Koreans.

"Have you brought the goods?" a well-disguised Carthage businessman asked as he looked at the other party.

"Already prepared. You better be careful. The Koreans have been watching us very closely recently. Also, who is this person? Why haven't I met?" A lieutenant of Zhao Guo's navy did not wear his military uniform. Instead, he was wearing local clothes and found a white robe to put on him, disguising himself as a local.

"Hannibal Barca. You can call him Hannibal. He may contact you in the future. His language is not very fluent." said the Carthage businessman in charge of the joint.

"Hannibal Barca?" The lieutenant looked at each other, and Hannibal didn't feel nervous at all. He was just curious about everything, the people of Zhao, the speedboats, weapons, and theirs. Everything, everything. Yes, he is an important strategist in the West, Hannibal, Baka, it seems that he is still very young. But he is definitely an excellent officer. The Carthaginians were the first to come into contact with Koreans. They bought guns and artillery from Aiji merchants. They were very satisfied with gunpowder weapons and believed that this kind of weapon would bring a huge amount of money. Victory advantage, in the future battle against the Roma. This weapon will play a very big role. I have to say that Hannibal did have a strategic vision. He saw the value of this weapon at once, but the problem was that the Carthaginians had very limited access to weapons. And, this type of weapon is expensive and the import speed is slow, which makes Hannibal very worried. He is worried that the Roma will also see the same value. In that case, their situation will become bad. Therefore, he hopes to come and see for himself. It is best to import a production line for producing such weapons from Zhao Guoren. In this way, it can be published on a large scale. In this regard, Hannibal has also worked very hard to learn the Central Plains dialect. The Central Plains dialect is developing very fast, but there are still some difficulties in communicating with Zhao Guoren, at least there are still many vocabulary that he does not understand. This is indeed a difficult obstacle for him, but he is determined to overcome such obstacles.

"It looks like a soldier?" said the lieutenant.

"He is a soldier. He came here just to keep in touch with you. My task has been completed. It's up to you next. I believe that the Carthage military will buy more weapons from you, but, It depends on your abilities." Carthage merchant said.

"There is no problem with this. Our weapons have always been very good. Any problem can be solved. Trust me." said the lieutenant.
