"Obviously, the southerners have the support of the Qi people, and judging from the recent battle situation, they are more tactically inclined to the shameless tactics of the Qi people." Li Sen said angrily.

"Yes, sir. They are very shameless, after the southerners get a large number of flintlock muskets, they take the initiative to hide in the eastern mountains, they do not take the initiative to attack us, but we have to take the initiative to attack them, which makes us very passive, and most importantly, they also get a steady stream of supplies from the Qi people, but we can't start a war with the Qi people, the situation seems to be very unfavorable for us. Despite our superiority, we have no superiority in combat and we are running out of supplies. This is the case. We have to face it. The chief of staff said worriedly.

"I've already reported this to the above, and I think it won't take long for them to fix it." Leeson said.

"Yes, sir, but at present, we must let our people withdraw as soon as possible to strengthen our defenses, we can't give the southerners a chance, if the Qi people are on the sidelines, this war will be very difficult to fight." The chief of staff continued.

"I know that. Give the order as soon as possible and let us withdraw, for it will be very disadvantageous to us if we continue like this. Leeson said. He looked at the map he had recently drawn with great annoyance.

Goguryeo, Li Wending's headquarters, his headquarters has been placed on the seashore so that it is convenient for him to command.

"This is the recent situation, and the people of Qi are very unfavorable to us." Li Wending said with some annoyance.

"They gave the southerners a large number of firearms, and they also taught them vicious tactics, they attacked at night, and our positions were full of southerners, bayonets, muskets, and flintlock muskets were large-caliber bullets, and the threat may not be great at a distance, but at close range, the situation will be very unfavorable to us, and a shot can kill us." Li Wending said.

Hawke looked at the report in his hand solemnly. This is a report that has just been sent back from the front.

"The most terrible thing is our logistics, the ships provided by the Yan people are too broken. This is very bad for us. They can't deliver a lot of supplies, which will delay us a lot. Li Wending said.

"I've noticed this problem. At present, the only way is to bring in large transport ships from South Korea, and I will report to the Qin side in this regard, so that the Qin State can help us solve big problems. Hawke said.

"This is not the most important thing, I think, we should also let the Qin State solve the problem of the Qi State, if the Qin people can't solve the problem of the Qi State, we will solve it ourselves." Li Wending waved his arm and said solemnly.

"No, sir, if we do that, there will be a lot of turmoil, you know, we can't afford it. The people of Qi can't touch it at will. Hawke knew that once the Qi State was involved, the war would drain the entire Goguryeo national strength, and the war might not end, and it was a serious diplomatic war.

"I know, but the people of Qi have already participated. The support of the Qin people is limited, and the southerners also have people to support, such a war cannot be solved at all, we must solve the problem of the stronghold of the Qi people as soon as possible, otherwise, the war will be extremely unfavorable to us. Li Wending said annoyedly. When the Second Infantry Division entered the south, the situation changed dramatically, and the Goguryeo people did not expect that the Qi people would be involved, perhaps they should have thought of this a long time ago. It's just that they don't want to believe it, and now the problem of the Qi people must be solved, only in this way can the logistical aid from the south be completely cut off, and the war can become favorable to the Goguryeo people to fight.

Hawke just shook his head. He knew that this matter was not simple, and it would definitely not be easy to solve.

Qi country, Binhai District.

"How's our shipyard going? Can we imitate this kind of long ship in South Korea, their transportation and carrying capacity can be very high, with such a ship, our country can develop more quickly. Tian Heng asked a few old craftsmen. With the establishment of a series of trading and colonial strongholds on the Korean Peninsula, these strongholds brought great benefits to the Qi State, and solved some of the labor surplus purposes in the Qi State, which is a good thing for the Qi State, but the development of such a stronghold requires ships.

The traditional Qi ships are no longer up to the task. The construction time of Qi ships is long, the carrying capacity is very limited, and the speed is not as fast as the long boats made by South Korea, which makes the Qi people very envious, so they decided to buy a few, and then disassemble them and build them themselves. In this way, the shipbuilding industry of Qi can quickly catch up.

"This. Checkmate. The Koreans' ships were very cleverly constructed. And iron beams were used. This iron beam. It has to be addressed. An old man with a white head was the first to speak.

"Hmm. There is no problem with this. I have already sent a telegram to Zhao Guo Handan. The iron beams of the Koreans were imported from the Zhao country, and the Zhao people could use it, and we could use it. Zhao Guoren has the corresponding size, and we can take it completely. Tian Heng said. In addition, there is wood. This must be accumulated over a long period of time. A carpenter said. The wood used in shipbuilding is a special use. And the shipbuilding industry of Qi has just started, and it is obviously unlikely that there will be such a large amount of timber to supply them.

"This." Tian Heng was a little embarrassed. He also knows that wood is a dilemma.

"South Koreans also import timber from the Korean Peninsula, and they can use it in large quantities, and so can we. It's just that they definitely have special technology. This can only be done with the Koreans. Tian Heng said helplessly.

"Hmm. What else?" Tian Heng needs to solve many technical problems, and only technical problems are solved. In order to make the shipbuilding industry of Qi develop.

"Iron nails, this thing is used a lot by Koreans, and although it can be solved using traditional techniques, we don't know if the situation can be improved. The other thing is that we need to dismantle a ship, and only by dismantling it can we know how the Koreans built it. Don't worry, general, we'll assemble it when we disassemble it. An old man said.

"Yes, according to your ideas, I will solve what you need as soon as possible. Still, I hope you build ships as soon as possible, we need them so much. Tian Heng said.
