The Prime Minister's Mansion of Handan, Zhao State. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"This is the request of the Qin government, and they hope that the strategy of this campaign will be adjusted." Li Zuoche reported to Li Mu. This is the content of the telegram he has just received. The telegram came from the General Staff of the Qin State, and Wang Jian had already agreed to his own plan this time.

"What?" Li Mu was a little surprised.

"It's telegram. It has the details of Wang Qian, the chief of staff of the Qin State. Li Zuoche handed it to Li Mu.

Li Mu shook his head after looking at it quickly.

"In this way, there will be a hidden danger left for some time to come." Li Mu said.

"Yes, Prime Minister, but there's nothing we can do about it." Li Zuoche said.

"What Qin himself said was that their troops were insufficient, and the position in which the 1st Cavalry Brigade of the South Korean New Army appeared was too biased. And the 1st Army of the North has already begun to act. In this way, only the First Army of the Qin State was fighting on the flanks, it was difficult for them to defend, and to expand a larger defense area, what they could do was to kill and wound the enemy as much as possible, and they could only do this. Li Zuoche said.

"Hmm." Li Mu nodded.

"Do you have any other way to fix this?" At this time, Li Mu asked Li Zuoche's thoughts.

"Hmm. Unless we increase our troops, but if we increase our troops, there is a big problem, and this problem is that we can't draw more troops to their Qin people. Li Zuoche said with great embarrassment.

"Hmm." Li Mu nodded.

"If we use the army, we will need a large number of army troops, and this force will need at least one division of infantry and one cavalry brigade, so the military expenditure will be much larger." Li Mu calculated.

"In addition, there are other guaranteed arms to participate, engineering troops, and artillery units, which are very expensive, and in terms of time, it is too late." Li Zuoche said worriedly.

"Hmm." Li Mu nodded.

"What is it like to use the Air Force?" At this time, Li Mu asked with a smile, and Li Zuoche said.

"Using the Air Force?" Li Zuoche called out in surprise.

"This, our air force is still very weak, it looks like the air force has been formed. But the number of airships is less than twenty, most of them are still old models, and the flying airships of the Qinguo Air Transport Company are much stronger than our models, and there are also aircraft, but most of them are not maintained in place, and they may not be able to fly. I am afraid that when such an air force goes to fight, before it reaches the place, our air force practically no longer exists. Li Zuoche said without confidence.

At the beginning, Zhao Guo was also full of confidence to establish the Zhao State Air Force, although it was very young, but Li Mu thought that this was a revolutionary military branch, but until now, the Zhao State Air Force has made no achievements, because of insufficient funds, many pilots who returned from Qin State training most of them did not have the possibility of taking off again. Zhao's air force did not exist as if it were a fictitious thing.

"I know these circumstances, it is because of this that we have to use the Zhao Air Force, if they don't fight, they will never have the opportunity to use it." Li Mu said to Li Zuoche.

"According to the deployment of our Zhao State's dispatched troops, I speculate that Wang Qian's intentions are the same, he hopes to let Qin's heavenly army exert greater power, after all, air superiority is something that the Goguryeo people do not have, and it is a great advantage to be high up and hang to fight the Goguryeo." Li Mu said.

"Another important reason is learning." Li Mu said to Li Zuoche.

"If we don't learn from the meteorological support of the Qin people, as well as their experience in fighting in the air and fighting on the ground in the air, our Zhao Air Force will never be able to fly on the ground." Li Mu said solemnly.

"And the cost of the Air Force is cheaper than that of the Army, although the procurement cost is very large, but we can learn and introduce relevant technologies, and our Zhao State is also actively introducing various manufacturing technologies, maybe the people of Qin will give some, these are the foundation of a country." Li Mu said solemnly to Li Zuoche.

"Hmm. Sir, I think you're right, at least in the future. Li Zuoche said.

"So, what we need to do now is move the Air Force up." Li Mu said.

"It's just that in order to do that, we need to get the consent of the upper and lower councils. You must know that if you let the Zhao Air Force send troops to fight, you must increase a certain amount of military spending to buy some flying machines. The prime minister can go to our air base and see that the aircraft is very dilapidated. This requires a lot of military spending to buy. I think the people of Qin are very good at settling accounts in this regard. Li Zuoche looked at Li Mu very worriedly, when the Zhao Air Force was established, it cost a lot of money, and the subsequent maintenance fee made the upper and lower houses criticize, they thought that the military expenditure was too high, and then the military had to cut the military expenditure, and the result was the current situation. This is not very good news for them.

"Let's go and see if there is any other way to solve it, how much it costs, and it's best to complete it as soon as possible." Li Mu said to Li Zuoche. Immediately, Li Mu took Li Zuoche to quickly inspect the air base outside Handan of Zhao State.

"How many airships do you have?" Li Mu asked directly Air Force Minister Mao Wen.

"Sir, we only have twenty airships." Mao Wen said distressedly.

"How many can fly?" Li Mu asked.

"This." Mao Wen was a little distressed, but he bowed his head and said nothing, he didn't know what to say.

"Do you want me to try one after the other?" Li Mu asked.

"This. Sir, no. Mao Wen waved his hand and said.

"Actually, there aren't many that can fly, just a few airships." Li Wen said vaguely.

"How much, exactly?" Li Mu asked solemnly.

"Sir, we only have one airship that can barely take off." At this time, Li Jiu in the back stood up and reported. He was a young pilot and the actual flight commander of the Zhao Air Force. Rank colonel. He is the only flying wing in Zhao State, the captain of the wing.

"Zhao State Air Force, twenty airships, only one can fly, or barely able to take off." Li Mu asked with great disappointment.

"Sir. There are many specific problems, the above gives us very little money, many of our airships cannot be repaired, many parts cannot be found, and even if they are found, it takes a lot of money to buy, and as a result, we have no accessories at all. There's no way, sir, we can only disassemble all the accessories of those airships that can't fly and use them for other airships, as a result. Li tenon shook his head and said.

"Can I see what's going on?" Li Mu asked at this time.

"Yes, sir, we're more than welcome." Li said tenon.
