"The situation is very unfavorable for us, our defense line has not been well arranged, and the Goguryeo people are going to attack, which is really a lot of pressure." Prince Dan said worriedly.
The Minister of Defense also felt helpless when he heard the prince's sigh at this time.
"You have to think about a way, can you solve this problem quickly, if you can solve this problem, it is better to solve it." Prince Dan said with some impatience.
"Hmm." The Minister of Defense snorted.
"Prince, the only way is to increase the troops." said the Minister of Defense.
"Nope." Prince Dan immediately shook his head and said.
"In this way, the finances will increase, and you better think of a solution that costs less and can solve the problem?" Prince Dan asked.
"This." The Minister of Defense was in a dilemma. He really couldn't think of such a thing at once.
"Do you think we're trying to figure out how to use weapons, think about it." At this time, Prince Dan thought about it and said.
"The solution for us from the Qin people is to buy a large number of weapons, these weapons are grenades and mines, but these weapons have a disadvantage, that is, they are very troublesome to arrange, and once they are arranged, it is difficult to move, such requirements are too great." Prince Dan said.
"But the Qin people's thinking is right, we can't expand the army, even if it does, it's too late. Since we can't expand the army, we will work weapons, and the thinking of the Qin people is right. Prince Dan said at this time.
"It's just that weapons, we don't have a big weapon right now that can be used in such a short period of time." said the Minister of Defense. In his opinion, this request is too much. Because they simply do not have the ability to find such a weapon in such a short period of time, such a weapon is too difficult for them.
"Hmm." Prince Dan snorted. But he still didn't want to give up.
"Think of a way, now that time is tight, we'd better have such a weapon, its price is not very expensive, and it is used, the number is not very large, and the most important thing is that it can deter the other party, and it is very lethal." Prince Dan thought about it one by one.
And when the Minister of Defense heard such conditions, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. What kind of weapons can meet such conditions. He really couldn't think of it.
"Think about it." Prince Dan urged.
After listening to this, the Minister of Defense wanted to refuse, but seeing Prince Dan constantly moving back and forth, he was embarrassed to refuse again. But there really wasn't such a weapon, and his mind began to look for such a weapon like a sieve. Machine guns, the cost is also very large, the bullet money is a lot of money, and it also requires soldiers to strengthen training, which is definitely not cost-effective, don't think about artillery, this is simply impossible. It can't be done in a short time. Mines, grenades, such weapons are also in use, and although they are effective, they are very cumbersome to arrange, and they are not yet complete.
"It seems to be." At this time, the Minister of Defense suddenly thought of something, and he felt that this matter could definitely help Yan Guo.
"Prince, there is." The Minister of Defense said excitedly.
"Got it? What kind of weapons can solve such a problem? Prince Dan asked excitedly at this time.
"Poison gas." The Minister of Defense replied at this time.
"Poison gas. Right. I remember. At this time, Prince Dan patted his head and said.
"I remembered. The power of this poisonous gas is indeed very great, I think that at the beginning, our Yan army used these poisonous gases, but unfortunately, the Qin State thought that it was too unreasonable for us to use such weapons, so they forced us to prohibit the use of such weapons. Moreover, we also signed a treaty with the Qin people, and in the treaty, it was clearly stipulated that we were not allowed to use such weapons. Prince Dan said.
"If we use such weapons now, the people of Qin will sanction us, you must know that many of the things we need now are imported from Qin, and there are also a lot of financial funds, which also need assistance from Qin. Without Qin's assistance, we would not have been able to guarantee on a larger scale. Prince Dan said worriedly.
"The prince, the minister thinks that the prince's worries are for many months." At this time, the Minister of Defense persuaded. He believes that judging from the current situation of the Yan army's defense. The only hope of the Yan army can only be pinned on weapons, and poison gas is the best weapon, in the eyes of Yan State, poison gas is indeed a weapon, but the people of Qin State are very strange and do not classify poison gas as weapons, Qin's industrial production has equipment for producing poison gas, they just regard poison gas as a harmful gas rather than a weapon. This creates a legal loophole.
"Why?" Prince Dan asked.
"Prince, this poisonous gas is not a weapon in the Qin State, but a chemical exhaust gas. Moreover, the Qin army did not stipulate that chemical poison gas was a weapon, because steel cylinders were not weapons, so we imported commercial goods instead of weapons. The Minister of Defense persuaded.
"In addition, the Qin people stipulated that the object of our prohibition of using poison gas was the Central Plains country, that is, we were not allowed to release the poison gas against the Zhao people, the Qin people, as well as the Qi people, the Koreans, etc., but we were dealing with the Goguryeo people and the foreign peoples, and in this case, we did not touch the relevant provisions of the agreement." The Minister of Defense explained.
"It's just, it sounds a little reluctant." Prince Dan shook his head and said.
"Prince, at present, only poison gas can save the Yan Kingdom. Moreover, the Qin people produced a lot of poisonous gas, and they just used it as industrial waste gas or industrial raw materials. We buy it back and use it for commercial purposes, so that we can also explain the past. And after the release of poison gas. How effective it will be is not yet known. The Minister of Defense further said.
"Hmm. Just follow your opinion. Prince Dan thought about it and said.
The Minister of Defense also became excited when he saw that Prince Dan agreed. He knew that the poison gas he needed was the chlorine produced by the Qin State, which was used for bleaching in the Qin State. Especially in the papermaking process, bleaching technology is very critical, and there is such a paper mill in Yanguo, and chlorine comes from Qin. It can be said that such a raw material is ready-made, but no one has paid attention to using him as a weapon, and now Yan Guo especially needs such a cheap and powerful weapon. This weapon is just too useful for them. And it's very useful commercially, as long as it is collected and transported to the front line, it is simply too convenient.
