Valley Emperor

Just the cost of burning coal and shells to support the landing will cost millions. You think our army is stupid, and you still think that our army does not understand naval warfare!

Besides, even if our army wants to land, we don’t need your naval support. Our army has its own ships for landing support operations, and we don’t need your naval warships.

Not to mention, as far as the goods of the Ottoman Kingdom are concerned, the army can actually just get a few civilian cargo ships over there. When the time comes, a few mortars will be placed directly on the deck, even if it is fire support, it will not use those thousands at all. Tons of naval battleships!

Also, even if your navy supports the landing, why do you want my army to pay for it? When I'm wronged?

After all, this Black Sea Strait is still used by your navy. Our army is willing to send troops to garrison, even if it is to save face, if not to save face, even the cost of garrison will have to be paid by your navy!

Also, the follow-up combat costs for the landing will also have to be paid by your navy!

In short, the army said that this is the entry and exit channel of your navy, and it is none of our army's business!

The navy said that our navy is only responsible for maritime security. We use this strait a lot, but the two sides of the strait are land, so your army should fight, and the subsequent garrison will also be your army garrison, in short, your army will pay.

After arguing several times, the top officials of the Army and Navy broke down again.

The final result is, a fart, no more!

Every time it is millions and tens of millions, and no one is willing to pay, naturally it will not be able to fight. Therefore, the battle plan formulated by the imperial army and navy to capture the Black Sea Strait is put on the shelf, and it is estimated that the day will never be seen. .

But even if it is not to fight, the Black Sea Strait must be taken down, otherwise the safety of navigation cannot be guaranteed.

After consultation between the army and the navy, they directly pushed the matter to the cabinet, saying that the cabinet should take this place down. As for the follow-up naval **** and army garrison, the army and the navy will do it.

In fact, the cabinet is eager for the military to give up the idea of ​​military operations!

It costs a lot of money to fight this war. One spend can cost tens of millions. How much would it cost to buy it directly. It would cost 1.8 million to death.

In recent years, the cabinet has been trying every means to reduce military spending!

The annual military expenditure of the Tang Dynasty is more than 100 million Tang Yuan, which makes countless civilians feel distressed. This is more than 100 million Tang Yuan gold coins. If it is used for people's livelihood, how many things can be done.

A large number of primary and secondary schools can be built to train more industrial workers.

More and better infrastructure such as water conservancy can be built.

It can support the development of many industries at the same time.

However, now more than 100 million Tang Yuan has been thrown into the bottomless pit of military spending.

Although most of the military spending in it actually flows to defense companies through ordnance procurement, and finally to the manufacturing industry, even the salaries of soldiers will eventually flow into the social and economic cycle.

But the cabinet is still unhappy.

In the current situation of the Tang Empire, it is impossible to reduce military expenditures. To control so many overseas territories around the world requires a very large number of troops, and military expenditures are naturally not as low as there.

Therefore, the goal of the cabinet now is that the military can maintain its military strength, and it can also make small troubles occasionally, but don't fight big battles.

Your military has to fight, anyway, the cabinet will not give extra military expenses, your military saves money for the war cost battle, the cabinet does not talk nonsense, but if you want extra war expenses, dream!

The military gave up fighting in the Black Sea Strait and instead sought diplomatic support, which made the cabinet very gratified. Chen Lifu said: Those warriors finally know the importance of the matter.

What is weight!

Naturally, things like fighting are light.

The most important thing, of course, is the domestic people's livelihood. Now the Datang Empire is working hard to improve the domestic economy and people's livelihood. It wants the whole people to be prosperous and reduce the food index to 40%.

This is the top priority of the Tang Empire in recent years, and everything else is irrelevant.

Occupying a little bit of aboriginal land is useless!

Therefore, the cabinet let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs take action, and strive to take down both sides of the Black Sea Strait by diplomatic means and control the strategic security of the Black Sea Strait.

And when this series of things happened, the Tang people had not been in contact with the Ottomans.

The Ottomans had no idea that the Tang Dynasty had even formulated a battle plan, and finally vetoed military operations because of military spending, and turned to diplomatic intervention.

This is a typical situation in Datang in recent years, when it is better to fight than to buy.

Many times, the military really wants to fight, but when they calculate the bill, they find that fighting for land is much more expensive than buying it directly. In the end, fighting often turns into buying.

This makes many military generals sigh, saying that it has been a long time and lack of combat experience, the combat effectiveness of the army will shrink seriously, and if the indigenous rebels, the empire is afraid that it will face a great crisis!

Faced with such a statement, the cabinet members scoffed!

We didn't let you fight big battles, and we didn't tell you to let your horses go to Nanshan. Now the military is not fighting against indigenous people every day around the world.

The Indian side is carrying out various small and medium-scale military operations throughout the year, and it is rotated every day to deploy operations overseas. You should think that our cabinet does not know!

There is also the navy, which is engaged in ocean-going training every three days. If there is something wrong, it will catch the indigenous sailboats and only beat them. Sometimes, in order to conduct live-fire exercises, they even go to other indigenous ports to conduct live-fire exercises.

Although the army and navy of the Datang Empire had no major wars, they were still opening films all over the world, but the scale was generally small, and most of them were battalion-company-level battles.

In this regard, the cabinet is known.

In this situation, the military's combat experience can still be accumulated and cannot be degenerated.

Besides, even if it's not easy at that time, the Datang Empire still has a lot of trump cards.

For example, mortars, this thing has not been equipped on a large scale, but there are a lot of mortars in reserve, but they are rarely used, because mortars themselves are not expensive, and shells are expensive...

Other artillery and the like are also equipped and stored a lot, but they are rarely used.

In addition, the research on advanced weapons of the Tang Empire in recent years has not stopped. The lack of equipment now does not mean that it has not been researched!

For example, in terms of rifles, three years ago, in the 40th year of Xuanping, the United Type II rifles had just started mass production to equip troops. At present, the entire army has only equipped about 300,000 rifles, and most of the rifles are still using single-shot. The United Type I rifle, but it has been mostly improved to use all-metal bullets.

In the estimated ten years, the United Type 1 rifle using metal bullets will still be one of the main rifles of the Datang military, and the equipment time of the United Type 2 rifle is estimated to be more than 20 to 30 years.

However, in fact, the research institutions affiliated to the major arsenals in Datang have already begun to study a new generation of rifles, trying to develop a new type of rifle with higher precision. Well, high precision is the priority of the army, because precision High, a bullet can destroy an enemy.

Save ammo!

The same is true for artillery. The artillery used by Datang’s large-scale equipment is still strictly speaking the first generation of steel rear-loaded rifled artillery, and adopts more advanced processing technology~www.wuxiaspot.com~ new materials, which have a longer range. , The rear-mounted artillery with a faster rate of fire and greater power is also available. Although the army and navy purchase a small amount of meaning, it can be mass-produced at any time if necessary.

Even the machine gun that the Son of Heaven had personally paid attention to in the early years was actually developed this year!

But the army observers reported: This machine gun is very powerful, but the ammunition consumption is also very powerful. It can shoot hundreds of bullets in one minute...

When the top officers of the army knew about this thing, their first reaction was: Ma Dan, now our army is carrying forward the spirit of hard training, and the slogan is: Sweat more in peacetime, save bullets in wartime!

Now you can get me a machine gun with a rate of hundreds of bullets per minute. The bullets cost no money?

don't want!

After this matter reached the ears of the Son of Heaven, it made the Son of Heaven, Li Xuan, quite speechless. The researchers finally developed a machine gun that could be used in actual combat.
