Late at night. The war department is still lit up, in fact, the war department is often like this, if the lights are not on, it is not normal. The War Department is also expanding, as several departments are being established in the vicinity. They all need to be dealt with in a timely manner and reported in a timely manner. Shang Wu and Jia Xu originally had their own small courtyard to live in, but unfortunately, they simply lived here because they were busy. In fact, this is the cabinet of the IRA. But it has not been completely reformed.

Shang Wu looked at the reports, the complicated situation made Shang Wu begin to look for relevant things from the past information, a little bit of information to solve, militarily into a state of stalemate, at the same time, they fell into a huge stagnation in diplomacy, because of the lack of a main way, they only knew that the governor of the state was called Ding Yuan, and knew that there was a general named Lu Bu who could block bullets. This person is extremely brave in battle, and his martial arts are outstanding, but that is in the case of fighting alone, and once he encounters a large-scale attack and battle, his personal martial arts are still so unimportant.

However, this did not help to solve the problem in the slightest, on the contrary, many things could not be properly handled, and in such a situation, Shang Wu felt that he could find more and more information to deal with such situations, but he hoped to find something useful from these new things, so that their situation could become extremely favorable.

"Whew." Sangmu shook his head. Rub your sour eyes. Still haven't found anything.

"Drink some water. If you go on like this, you won't be able to stand it. "Jia Xu came over and filled Shangwu with water. It's ridiculous to say that the war department of the republican army never uses cups to drink water, but uses large bowls, which are easy to see, and the army, factories, peddlers, pawns, and ordinary people's homes are easy to see. If you add the dishes, it will be full, and if you go down in a big bowl, you will be as happy as you want. And many people have heard that the commanders of the Republican Army use such large bowls, not to mention how proud. Because it shows that everyone eats the same meal, because everyone serves the same bowl, this feeling makes them feel unbelievable, and even, in this case, they themselves feel very bad.

"Hmm." Shang Wu nodded. The water was still a little hot, and Shang Wu put it aside.

"How can the situation in the state be broken?" Shang Wu asked Jia Xu, maybe to talk to Jia Xu, they would consider the advantages of war from another angle.

"Well, I've looked at a lot of different things in terms of the situation in the annexed states, or rather, we've seen different ways to solve the problem from other aspects." Jia Xu said.

"The current military stalemate makes us very passive and unable to open the situation slowly, which makes us look at the problem from another angle. Was our previous military victory a purely military victory? I don't think so. Jia Xu paused and said.

"Our military victory was based on our economic policy. Because war is never a single existence, he needs to appear with many, many different people to solve some of these problems. In such a small situation, if they want to accomplish such some things, they need to deal with some situations properly. In other words, in this case, they need to do things very quickly. Jia Xu said.

"Without some help like that, a lot of things we're actually doing aren't going very well. For example, in Hedong, we are based on promoting our land policy and improving the local economic situation, where the landlords can annex the land, and they can also enter the factories and towns. They have a way to live, they have a channel to revitalize everything, and the bank has provided sufficient funds to help them, and they can say that they have revitalized. With such support, they can quickly accept us, and the same is true of Hexi, the reason why the Huns negotiated peace, on the one hand, because they accepted paper money, on the other hand, we need trade, they also need trade, both sides need trade, and their economy and our economy have achieved a good docking. This kind of docking is a favorable situation for us to unfold. Jia Xu said.

"Hmm. That's right, if the battlefield is not going well, we should revitalize some other passages outside the battlefield. In this way, we can be in a very favorable situation, and only then can we be in a very favorable situation, that is, we must be prepared for victory outside the battlefield. Shang Wu said. Jia Xu's attention suddenly opened up a new idea for Shang Wu. They had been doing this before, but after they had reached a certain stage, for example, after their military power became number one, this subtle way of doing so caused them some trouble. For example, at present, they believe that they can simply use military means to solve problems, which is why the current situation is singular, and the economy, and other means cannot be used, sometimes, fighting is only a means, and the end is the most important, they need to achieve the goal, not fight for the sake of simple fighting.

"You say, what are we going to do next?" Shang Wu asked Jia Xu.

"Land, still land, our land policy, taking into account both the common people and the powerful landlords, we do not oppose the powerful landlords, because such a thing as land annexation cannot be prevented at all, in your words, it is against the laws of the economy. However, the scattered land is extremely weak, as we have seen. The merger states are actually very large, but the current ones are actually very small. Actually, it's like a county, not so much that we're attacking a state, it's that we're attacking a county, and the land is good, and the land is still very fertile, but the problem is that in other places, it's very different. We simply can't get to where we are. This is not good for us, that is, we have to start with the land, meet the needs of the landlords, and at the same time, get more support from the people. How much land there is in a county, it must be that the powerful landlords have eaten it and divided it. When we attacked at this time, the landlord was strong and naturally held on, and we couldn't shake it at all. Jia Xu said,

Shang Wu's eyes lit up. Jia Xu has analyzed it to the root. Because the landlord is strong and strong, he has to stick to his land. What they are worried about is that the Republican army will storm and take away their land, which is their foundation, and cutting off people's money is like killing their parents. It's a lot of hatred. Therefore, this aroused the vigilance of the local landlords, so they will actively resist, and they will actively support and fight with the state army. And the policy of the Republican Army could not be pushed away, and the two sides formed a persistence, which is fundamental. Jia Xu saw this, and it also made Shangwu wake up all of a sudden, this is not a big deal at all, but Shangwu is completely in the wrong direction.

"Yes, you're absolutely right. We have to understand this. Land policy is something we have done wrong, otherwise, we would not have achieved such a situation. Shang Wu said.

"So, at the moment, we need to revitalize the local land, so that the land situation is in a very favorable situation, mobilize the local people, let them see greater advantages, as for how to mobilize, I think, we also need to unite them, even, use some other ways to fight, you said, under the land, not only can be cultivated, I think, we can also make up for it in other ways." Jia Xu said.

"What?" Shang Wu suddenly didn't understand. Jia Xu said and took out a report.

Shang Wu quickly looked over, this is an economic survey report from the economic department. From the grassroots, with the export of iron, and the rapid increase in demand, especially the need to build railways, which requires more iron, iron has become an important strategic resource, in fact, the republican army relies on a large amount of iron, commodity dumping, the demand for iron is quite large, kitchen knives, weapons, and even many places are inseparable, this is an important resource, relying on such a resource advantage, the republican army has developed rapidly and become an important economic source. Supporting economic development.

However, the iron production of the Republican Army is based on huge energy consumption, coal resources. It is the important industrial food that the Republican Army sustains industrial production.

Without such industrial food, there would be no way to talk about it.

With the expansion of the iron works, the demand for coal will become greater and greater, because the iron production of the Republican Army is extremely extensive, energy consumption is large, and pollution is large, but fortunately, the price of coal is extremely low, and heating and ironmaking are extremely convenient.

As the demand for iron increases, the demand for coal becomes greater and greater, and it can be said that without coal, the IRA will still be in trouble. Therefore, they need to find more coal resources, in the north, and in some areas controlled by the Wuhuan people, the wandering merchants found coal resources, but unfortunately, it is not the area they control, this may be the reason why they need to go to war, arable land, land and other resources can not meet their needs at all, they need a lot of things, even, many places need them to make greater development is, obviously, coal is an important resource.
