The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

State of Qin, Xianyang, in the prime minister's residence.

"Things in the Mediterranean region have become more unfavorable to the Loma people. According to the information we have obtained from the Koreans, the Loma people seem to be still in a passive situation." Meng Tian reported on the situation he had received from the Koreans. Given to Shangwen, he hoped to attract enough attention from the State of Qin. In other words, he hoped to send more officers to the Mediterranean area to observe the war.

"I suggest that we send more officers to observe this war. After all, Loma is a balanced existence in the entire Mediterranean region. If all the forces are tilted to the Carthaginians, the forces in the entire Mediterranean region There will be a lot of deflection." Meng Tian said.

Shang Wen is looking at the report in his hand.

The Mediterranean region is a region that should be balanced. If it is maintained as a single family, this region will soon become the regional hegemon, whether it is Carthage or Rome. It doesn’t matter. What’s important is that the sense of balance is already Losing, which means more power balance is broken, which is not a good choice for any party. And maintaining the balance of this situation seems to be the best choice.

"Well, I agree to do this, but I have a problem." Shang Wu put the report down and said.

"What I want to say is, why didn’t the Koreans participate in it? Under normal circumstances, Koreans should have participated in it a long time ago, and they will never watch this happen. They will definitely participate in it, so that the power can be achieved. A kind of balance, but the problem is that after the Loma lost a lot of troops, they still didn't do anything. This is very strange." Shang Wen said.

"It's true." Meng Yi nodded in agreement.

"I think the biggest reason is that the Loma people refuse to do this, because doing so may bring a lot of passivity to Loma’s economic independence, or it may not be conducive to Loma’s independent development, but the Koreans are looking for In the absence of opportunities, under such circumstances, the Koreans are unable to further exert their main power, so it may be an important reason why they have been unable to do it for a long time." Meng Yi said.

"This may be a reason." Meng Tian nodded and agreed with Meng Yi's idea. Shang Wen nodded in agreement.

"If you follow this theory to derive, the greater the loss of the Roma people, the more passive their situation, the more unfavorable the conditions for negotiating with the Koreans, and the development of the situation will further deteriorate to an unbelievable point. Only when this is the case. To the point, Koreans, we, have the opportunity." Shang Wen said. Qin’s financial industry is constantly looking for opportunities all over the world. It seems that it is a good choice to start a war, because doing so will bring them more benefits. This kind of benefits is visible, so that they can be seen. Get more initiative by providing funds.

"In this way, as far as the Mediterranean region, we need more military power to protect our financial security. After all, there is too far away for us. Control power will become extremely weak, and such a weakness will be for everyone. There is no benefit, but there seems to be only one solution. The establishment of the navy and the development of our navy can solve this problem." Meng Tian said. This is the only option. Because it's too far to land. The cost of transportation is far greater than any expedition.

"Yeah. It seems that we need to send a telegram to the Secretary of the Navy to know about the current situation. There are certain benefits for countries to increase naval warships appropriately." Shang Wen said. Both Meng Yi and Meng Tian agreed with this idea.

Because with the expansion of capital, the speed of capital expansion is much faster than military power. However, once capital lacks the protection of military power, it is difficult to exist alone, and its danger will become very great. Most of the investment scope of South Korean banks is in the fringe areas of the control of the South Korean navy, because the market there will be larger, and the reason for the expansion of the South Korean navy is that the contradictions that occur in these fringe areas have further evolved. This is true in South Korea, and so are other countries.

The same is true for Qin's power expansion. Most of the development of any country is moving towards a broader area along with the margins. The war between Goguryeo and the people of Yan was triggered in the fringe area, and then spread to a wider area. Goguryeo is a fringe area of ​​the people of the Zhao country, but now, this place is evolving into an important area, because the people of the Zhao country need The Goguryeo people do this, which is of great benefit to them. Without such benefits, they would not do such a thing.

North Loma.

"Huhu, huhu." The raging fire is burning. The Gauls and Carthage soldiers are carrying out large-scale robberies against the Loma. Although some of the Roman personnel from the manor have been evacuated, their belongings are But staying behind, the Carthaginian soldiers robbed their favorite things frantically, and those Roman citizens who had no time to escape became their biggest spoils.

"Ahhhhhhhhh." Two Carthage soldiers left here holding a Roman woman. They were extremely excited. The Gauls were very concerned about killing. They were almost murderous demons, waving them and capturing them. The short swords, long swords, shields, and spears that came were constantly killing and wounding the Romans. They didn't care how many people there were on the other side. They deserved it anyway.

They will set fire to things they can’t take. The movement of the Carthage Expeditionary Army can be easily judged, because as long as the Carthage Army passes by, there will inevitably be fires, killings, and various crimes. The activity occurs.

At this moment, what this expeditionary army brought was not civilization, but barbarism. Such behavior made Li Wei feel very disgusted.

"Don't you think that this is a bit too much? We are not here to kill people, we can rob property. Kill people. Set fire. There are too many things like this, and I don't think the situation is too good." Li Wei Seeing the robbery of the surrounding Carthage soldiers said so.

"This is their military salary. Since crossing the Alps, we have never paid them the salary they deserve. You know, we don't have money. A lot of money is used to buy ammunition. Even food reserves are not very large. If we don’t do this, our soldiers will move forward hungry, and their pockets will become very clean. This will seriously affect their morale. Only by doing this can their pockets be filled. It is full, to stimulate them to advance further, and there will be more Gaul tribes who will take refuge in us and take part in such battles." Hannibal said helplessly, riding on his horse.

Mercenaries are mercenaries. They never consider problems from a national strategic level. Sometimes, they are more like disciplined criminals. They have only one purpose for war, and they commit organized crimes.

"I think that when necessary, some military discipline should be emphasized. Otherwise, the existence of the military police would be meaningless." Li Wei said.

"I understand, I understand," Hannibal said. Hearing Hannibal's perfunctory talk about this matter, Li Wei didn't feel very good, because this kind of thing had happened many times. The military police will attack every time and rectify a large number of people each time, but after each time, such large-scale organized crimes still occur repeatedly. This can no longer be explained by military discipline. This shows that Hannibal himself encouraged this, and only by doing so can the morale of their soldiers be boosted. But the price is that more people will stand on their opposite sides and fight. This situation will become even more cruel.

This is the case of mercenaries, which may be the weakness of the Carthaginians. It is difficult to imagine what the consequences of their failure to do, a large number of soldiers will leave the expeditionary army, the whole expedition plan is difficult to proceed.

Rome. Panic and anger spread throughout Rome, and a new consul was born. It is the leader of the democratic faction, Guyio Flamini, as the new consul. He will command the army to defend the central region of Italy. Because Loma’s finances are exhausted, they cannot launch further attacks. What they need now is to stabilize the situation, not To make the situation worse, the other consul was the aristocratic faction, Seville.

Fabian’s villa, here became the gathering place of the new Roman army, Fabian undoubtedly became the new leader. The influence of the new army is further increasing, because the Romans began to get some terrible news from the front. The firearm brought a shocking killing effect.

It’s hard to believe that the proud shields, short swords, and javelins of the Roman Legion did not play any role in combat. Compared with those terrifying, their ballistas sent out huge artillery that roared like wild beasts and thunder and lightning. . Become fragile. One cannonball is enough to kill an entire team of one hundred people. This loss is unbearable for the Roma people.

"Look, this is a war of unequal weapons. Our Roman legions have spent too much money, and in the end they couldn't get close to each other, and the losses were extremely serious. What's more frightening is that their tactics are also undergoing further plans. They It will severely hit our two wings. If we block us from behind, our losses will be even more severe. It is possible that the entire legion will be wiped out. What will the national leaders know?" Scipio was dissatisfied. Speaking of.

"I believe that it won't take long for Hannibal to start from another angle on the battlefield and unexpectedly appear next to us. I am very confident about this." Scipio said.
