2311 telegram from the Prime Minister's Office
"I hope this matter is not talked about anymore. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 🔥 If our news is regulated, can we still know what we want to know? Although press regulation can bring great benefits. Shang Wen stood up and said to Meng Yi.
"But in the long run, we're going to get our ears and eyes bad, and that's not good for us, we're deaf. Blind. What else can we do? Shang Wen asked.
"Nothing can be done." Shang Wen said.
"So, it's better for us not to do such a thing. Because if we do it, we will lose more than we gain. Shang Wen continued.
"Hmm." Meng Yi nodded.
"Alright. Let's not talk about it. We still have a lot of things to solve, South Korea's Xinzheng, Zhao Guo Handan have sent telegrams saying that their stock market has seen great fluctuations, especially the Zhao Guo Handan market, the volatility is extremely large, Handan Iron Works stock several, within one day, from the highest price of 30 gold, two consecutive days fell to eight gold, such a crazy behavior, so that all the Zhao people were shocked, Li Mu sent a telegram to let us find a way to help them solve this problem. Shang Wen said and handed the telegram in his hand to Meng Yi.
"We can't help him with this." Meng Yi shook his head and said.
"You know, the Qin government doesn't have much binding force on the stock market, this kind of business behavior, should the Zhao people control those stock markets themselves?" Meng Yi asked.
"Unless they shut down the stock market themselves." Meng Yi said.
"Hmm." Shang Wen nodded.
"There is no way to do this, but the main problem at the moment comes from Liaodong. The situation in Liaodong is very unfavorable for us. Shang Wen said.
"The latest telegram from the General Staff, where the Koreans landed, made a serious mistake, they ran to our flank. As a result, they will arrive at the battlefield about three days late, and our military forces can no longer afford to block the larger pockets. Shang Wen said.
"Moreover, the front line also needed to compress the offensive forces of the Goguryeo. Coupled with the current situation in Zhao, all parties also hope to transfer some troops to launch an attack from the front. Shang Wen said.
"Hmm". Meng Yi nodded.
"Where are we looking for such troops. We are already a coalition force. The Yan State was unable to send more troops to participate in the war, their finances were already in a big crisis, and we dispatched an army of 20,000 people, and the plan of the staff was to fight a big war of annihilation, but at present, the war of annihilation could not be completed. Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.
"What do you mean?" Meng Yi asked Shang Wen.
"I mean, it doesn't matter if we can't fight a war of annihilation, we can make most of the Goguryeo people suffer a big loss, and then take commercial or other methods to further weaken the Goguryeo people, and the current situation has shown that we can't further weaken the military strength of the Goguryeo people." Shang Wen said.
"If you do that, there will be a big hidden danger. From the point of view of the future, it would be irresponsible for us to do so, because the whole situation has already shown. Letting go of the Goguryeo people will become a big hidden danger in the region in the future. Meng Yi said.
"But what the current military can't do." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.
"You are also well aware of our situation. The location of our troops will leave a large gap. Shang Wen said.
"All current military means cannot control such a gap." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.
"Okay, otherwise, the specific decision will be handed over to General Wang Jian to be responsible, and the government's ability to provide materials will be that." Shang Wen said helplessly.
"Hmm. All right. Meng Yi could only nod helplessly.

"Sir, the headquarters of the deputy chief of staff is advancing, and it cannot be contacted for the time being." Bai Qi reported.
"Hmm. However, there was a telegram from the Prime Minister's Office. The contents of the telegram were very strange. Bai Qi looked at Wang Jian and said.
"Bring it to me and show me." Saying that, Wang Jian asked for a telegram.
"Hmm." Wang Jian snorted after reading the telegram.
"This telegram is certainly strange. The Prime Minister's Office means that it can be allowed that we will not achieve the expected strategic goals. Wang Jian explained to Bai Qi.
"Why? In that case, there is no point in us fighting this war? Bai Qi asked puzzled.
"But it makes sense for politics." Wang Jian said.
"At least the war is over. As for the latter issue, it is the latter thing, you know, this war is like that. Wang Jian said.
"We want to achieve most of the strategic value, such as capturing the opponent's prisoners on a large scale, how many people will the opponent be defeated? Wait a minute. Wang Jian said.
"It was a great victory, a military victory, politically, economically, which could achieve the desired goal, and the Goguryeo people withdrew from Liaodong. That's how we win. Wang Jian said.
"But what is the point of doing this, what we want to fight is a war of encirclement and annihilation, annihilating a lot of the enemy's troops, but we are doing this, and it has no meaning for us to do so." Bai Qi said.
"Yes, that's it, what the Prime Minister's Mansion wants is such a result, and I can't tell you the specific reasons, after all, things are developing a lot now, how to think about it, the Prime Minister's Mansion naturally has the practices of the Prime Minister's Mansion." Wang Jian said.
"In the long run, if we can't achieve a full-scale siege and annihilation war, we will leave behind such a huge hidden danger as the Goguryeo people. If this hidden danger is not removed, it will often contain a large number of our troops. Bai Qi said. He thinks it's a bad decision.
"But not at the moment, maybe the Prime Minister's Office has a more long-term plan. This war, so be it, the Koreans came at a bad time. They were in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Wang Jian said helplessly.
"Our purpose of this war has been revised to large-scale destruction and capture the living forces of the other side, rather than encircling and annihilating them all." Wang Jian said to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi was very annoyed, but he was helpless, so he could only take out his pen and record it again. Bai Qi was puzzled by such a decision. But Wang Jian can accept it. The telegram was immediately sent. Yang Duanhe was also puzzled at first when he received the telegram a little later, but then he figured it out and naturally accepted it. He can only accept the decision of the Prime Minister's Office, after all, there are great political considerations for the war. and not a full-fledged military perspective. War is a continuation of politics.
