592 arms deals

The news that Ah Luo used a special piece of paper to buy an iron pot spread among the Huns at once, you know, an iron pot is of great significance to a tribe, although they don't know where those pieces of paper came from, they soon know that the value of the pieces of paper is very great.

"These are all you deserve, the Huns will never be stingy with their friends." Arrow said this after meeting Tru.

"Well, some of them are not very good, I just gave five dollars, but you gave me a thousand, too much. It's really too much. Tru said helplessly. Although the money is good, the IRA has special people to check their money records. Tru doesn't have much money left. A thousand dollars is not a small amount of money.

"Nope. This is what you deserve, you have solved many, many problems for our tribe, and we will need your care in the future. Arrow said.

"Hmm. Okay, but I'm just taking a hundred from it, and for the rest, your tribe isn't too good, so buy some stuff and go back. The Republican Army is disciplined, and if it is caught, it will be dealt with severely. Tru said. When Ah Luo heard this, he didn't dare to say anything. After all, the impact of such a thing is still very large.

"But you really helped me, we got some vendors, and they were willing to do business like ours, and they got a bank in between, you know, we just sold some cattle and sheep in exchange for what we needed for a winter, and that kind of thing was great. We never thought that it would be such a result, you know that for the steppe people, horses are life, they are our second friends, without these, the future of the Huns would be very worried. Ah Luo said excitedly that it was a very good deal to exchange a price he didn't expect for the supplies he needed, and such a deal was enough to make their situation much better. It can be said that such a situation has made their situation very favorable.

"Hmm. That's good, very good, what do you need next? I'll see if I can help you, and if it's a lot, I'll be able to find a way to help you solve some of it. Tru said. The solution of the problem requires them to properly deal with all kinds of relations, which is a bit of a disadvantage for the Huns, because they know nothing, and if they can know some doorways, they will not show up and tell each other to use paper money, and they will not understand the situation of paper money.

Now Ah Luo believes in Tru's words very much, and he feels that Tru's words are a friend, and what should be said is that he is a Huns. The real Huns. But Tru doesn't think so, Tru has his own tasks, he has a very large trade volume, and also has his own trade tasks, there was a special meeting on it, and told them that they need to do quite a lot, first of all, a large number of horses, the Republican Army needs to import more horses, because they need to establish a military horse farm, in addition, the people also need cattle and sheep, some bad horses can be used as carriages, the demand is still very large. Then there are all kinds of dairy products, leather, wool, all kinds of things that can be used, and they will buy them.

"Well, we need iron, a lot of iron, preferably some weapons, arrows or something, I know you, friend, you should get these, and I know what the Huns need these for, but we can't help it. There are also Wuhuan people in the north, they are fighting very crazy, the Hun tribe has suffered a great blow, if there is no iron, the whole tribe will not survive, my friend, I hope you can understand such a situation, this is not what we are going to do, but we have to do something. The grassland is a very cruel place, we need to protect ourselves, protect our tribe, cattle and sheep. Horses, these can only rely on our scimitars and bows. Arrow explained. He was afraid that his friend Tru would think the worst, because in that case, it would be too bad. It's definitely not something they can imagine.

"I understand these things, I understand them very well, and in this way, the IRA has set up a northern trading company, and they specialize in the trading of commodities. You can go there and try some of your needs, maybe be met there. Tru thought for a moment and said. Iron pots, salt, cloth, these are also daily necessities, many merchants from some private factories in Hedong wholesale in large quantities, come here to trade, although the trade can bring greater profits, but there will also be a lot of inconvenient places, such as settlement, once the cattle and sheep die on a large scale, may lose money. But paper money can guarantee such a situation very well, as for cattle and sheep, there are special merchants, and places where they can trade to do such things, for example, the Northern Trading Company, in Tru's understanding, trading companies and companies are the same meaning. That's where the IRA traded extensively and in large quantities.

The IRA needs to build a military horse farm. The situation on the military horse farm is far more useful than they ever do, and in some of these situations, there are still a lot of things they can do, and how to achieve such a situation, it is up to them to solve some things themselves.

Through the Northern Trading Company, it is possible to meet the demand for so many horses, cattle and sheep. Many tribes will come here to trade, the price is fair, and the important thing is that a large number of paper money is sent out from here, with paper money, many tribes can buy the daily necessities they need fairly, so as to avoid a lot of unfavorable transactions. Because of the great demand, many businessmen offer preferential conditions to help them solve some of these problems, so that most of their situations can be considered to be solved.

With Tru's help, Arrow quickly approached the people of the Northern Trading Company for what they needed.

The Republican Army has a lot of iron in its hands. This iron is mainly used in exchange for more goods, such as meat products. The cost of iron is not too high, and the profit in the middle is still very considerable.

Arrow was very apprehensive. Because the IRA knew too well what these people thought they needed. Quite simply, they need weapons, and the grassland is a place where the weak eat the strong, and if there are not enough weapons to protect themselves. Then there is simply no way for them to survive on the steppe.

Arrow's request was taken seriously by the Northern Trading Company, and although the export of iron tools was fast, it was not enough to make more profits, and small merchants could do the arms business, but their numbers were not too large. And only companies with an official background such as the Northern Trade can do weapons business on a large scale.

It's not a big deal to machine a few arrows, it's very simple, just change a few lathes, and do a large-scale casting to get so many arrows. Such a business is simply too easy.

Not only these, but the Huns actually needed some weapons, and armor was also what they needed the most, because these things were expensive, and they could only use leather armor, but the protective performance was too poor. The Republican Army, on the other hand, can produce such things on a large scale.

After the mass arming of the Republican army with firearms. Upgrading the armor was also underway, as it was something the craftsmen traditionally knew, but they quickly gave up. Because they are too bulky, and the Republicans are often on the offensive, most of their infantry is light infantry, and if you look at the equipment of the Republican Army, you will find that they do not have a single defensive equipment.

Not even a helmet. Because they are always on the offensive, using such equipment will seriously slow down their combat speed. The Republican Army remained a type of army that used light infantry on a large scale. So, such an order cannot be obtained.

Not only that, but the iron armor produced was too heavy, and the cavalry troops could only be equipped with a small amount of equipment, because it was very inflexible. In terms of protection performance, it can resist the attack of short-barreled firearms at close range, but within a certain distance, it cannot resist the fire of firearms. And if you want to protect, you need to add iron plates, and as a result, the weight increases again, which is really bad for the republican soldiers of the light infantry. The reason is simple, their losses will become large, large, and this is a very bad result, so defensive equipment is not very comfortable in the Republican Army.

But for the cavalry of the steppe, with armor. It's the best equipment ever. Especially ironclad. These are all good things that are difficult to deal with.

The Republican Army sells exactly such equipment to the other side, so that the military factories can survive on such orders.

The IRA was not at all concerned about the threat of the other side, because this defensive weapon was not much use except for adding weight. At a certain distance, they simply could not withstand the attack of solid shells, even if the armor was good. It's beautiful. But it didn't work. In the eyes of the Republican Army, those so-called armor are at best good-looking, or protection against stray bullets on the battlefield, nothing more. It's really not very useful.

Selling to the people of the steppes can also make some money, and when they attack the Republican army, they can not threaten their safety in the slightest, because the heavy armor will slow them down, which is a good target for the infantry, and the artillerymen will also like such a target.

The steppe people were very excited, they bought obsolete weapons, but they were still very excited, and the Republicans could only watch each other leave so happily. Trading in weapons, that's where they're best at. Only in this way can they make their situation more powerful.
