"The stock market is down again." Li Mu looked at the newspaper in his hand and said to Li Zuoche.

"Not only us, but also the South Korean stock market, the Qinguo stock market, but the analysis of the market only believes that this is a small-scale market technical adjustment. Yes, nothing important happened. Li Zuoche said guessingly.

"Why does the stock market go down and up, it's best if it goes up all the time, but there is always a fall." Li Mu shook his head and said. Regarding the decline and rise of the stock market, Li Mu himself could not explain the reason. And the government simply doesn't know what to do to dramatically stimulate these economies into an upward spiral.

"Prime Minister, I think that on the whole, the stock market is still in a favorable upward trend, and we don't have to worry too much, after all, there are many things that we can't control." Li Zuoche said.

"Well, it's just that the negative sentiment is relatively large, and the decline has caused a lot of trouble to the Zhao market. That's just what we're worried about. That's all. Li Mu said.

"However, Prime Minister, I think we should pay attention to the future trend at present, for example, our iron works. and whether the parts produced by the various processing plants can be sold. Whether the future demand is great, many countries have construction needs, but if we don't solve the financial problems, we won't get the contract. There seems to be no movement on the Qin side in this regard. South Korea and Chu have intentions in this regard, but there is no specific government plan, if we can sign specific cooperation intentions with the governments of these countries, I think, this will be a great promotion for the development of production in Zhao and the progress of the stock market. Li Zuoche suggested.

"Well, make suggestions to Qin State in this regard, as well as South Korea and Chu State, for the time being, we still need to wait and see, after all, their financial problems are not very easy to solve." Li Mu thought about it and said. Korea and Qin are the two most powerful countries, and for Chu, this country has not officially stepped into the right track.

Chu State, Pengcheng. Fan Zeng's Prime Minister's Office.

"This is a message from Sinzheng, South Korea, which says that the Hanchu coalition army has launched an offensive operation against the city of Mengla. They have already sent troops. The results have not yet been sent back. Fan Zeng said to Chen Ping. Chen Ping read the telegram.

"I haven't told General Xiang Yan about this matter, I think, what if this war is lost? What if you win? Fan Zeng asked Chen Ping.

"Hmm. Prime Minister, I think the situation may be in our favor, win or lose. Chen Ping said.

"Oh. Win or lose in our favor? Fan Zeng asked Chen Ping.

"Yes, if we win. We could have gotten better benefits and failed. This is just a military operation, but it does not mean the end of a war, if the Menglas want to end the war, this war, must be won, or we continue to fight, if the Menglas are unacceptable, in the end we will win. Chen Ping said.

Fan Zeng thought about it and nodded in agreement with Chen Ping's statement, victory or defeat is no longer important, the important thing is that South Korea and Chu State should open the market of the entire Mengla. Even if a military operation fails, they can also find many excuses to continue waging war until they are victorious. The two countries have a common strategic purpose of opening up trade markets.

"This telegram still has to tell General Xiang Yan to send more troops to the war again. As for the ships they need, we can lease them, the South Korean side has such a priority service, we must do it. Fan Zeng said to Chen Ping. Chen Ping nodded. The biggest difficulty lies in the finances, if there is the first trade income, or the war reparations, it will greatly stimulate the construction of the Chu State. But not yet.

Inside the city of Bangla.

Soldiers loot everywhere, and although they still maintain a certain structure, soldiers will more or less disrupt the formation.

"Xinkebing, come with me. Hurry up. "A corporal of the South Korean New Army waved his arms, carried his own musket and carried a torch, and the large-scale looting had been going on for a day and a night. But it still doesn't seem to meet their needs, and they continue to expand the scope of the robbery. The palace as a whole was within the scope of the relocation, and a large number of Zinke soldiers were involved. And outside the royal palace, soldiers entered the palace in an organized raid on nobles, officials, and wealthy merchants*. They are the most powerful and wealthy class of the Menla.

Several Mengla surrendering soldiers, with strips of red cloth tied around their shoulders, and some slaves excitedly followed the corporal away, and they would rob one of the richest merchants, who were notoriously wealthy. There are countless possessions, and they will carry everything of value, and even if they can't take it, they will destroy it.

The Shin Ke Soldiers are an army established by the Koreans themselves. They didn't have many weapons, only a small number of axes, machetes, which they used to loot and transport some looted booty, and others, they could get some as well. However, they had to follow the soldiers of the Korean New Army, and if they were alone, they would be disposed of as Monglas. This is to prevent these damned Shink soldiers from killing South Korean New Army soldiers.

Zinke is the local language, the new Korean officers and soldiers do not know the meaning of this word, they just call it that, how it came about, they themselves do not know, but it is easy to identify them, just look at their left arm to see if there is a strip of red cloth, if there is, you can take it, they will transport a lot of loot, act as a battlefield transporter, for such soldiers, the Korean new army soldiers are generally willing, because they voluntarily give up resistance, and join in the robbery.

"In front of me, a damn Zink soldier is doing that kind of thing with a Mengla woman, and there are a lot of Zink soldiers waiting enthusiastically, and they have eager expressions. Not only that, but each of them carries a big burden behind them, and that is their trophy. Each of them was excited. The whole city of Bangla was full of looting Korean New Army soldiers and Chu soldiers, as well as those damned Shink soldiers, and there were more and more of them, these Shink soldiers from the surrendered regular army, as well as the rebellious slaves, they led the armies of the two countries to ransack the city called Bangla. Zhang Chan took the time to write in his diary, but he soon got busy, because he needed to count the loot of the South Korean New Army, and he was reluctant to participate in the looting, but he had some loot. This comes from statistical work. No one is going to manage something like this because they get too much. Like several obedient dogs, the Zinkers gathered in the back with their future possessions.

"Great. We have a very rich harvest, the amount of gold has been too great to count, and there is also some silver. It's too many to count, and our soldiers don't even know how to record it. Zhang Shi said to Zhang Dahui after seeing the report.

"Sir, should we pay attention to the movements of the Mengla, after all, their king is still outside, and they still have a large number of field troops that have not been gathered, and we may not have much time." Zhang General Assembly worried about the suggestion.

"Hmm. Give them two more days, and when we have enough loot, we'll retreat. Don't panic, those damn Menlas won't have much time to gather. Their army dragged and scattered. It looks like a bunch of beggars without any training. Zhang Shi said disdainfully. Zhang Shi's view of the Meng-La army was clearer than that of Zhang Dahui, in his opinion, those Meng-La armies were just a huge number, and they were extremely disdainful of this, because the numerical advantage became a disadvantage. Because they were easy to defeat, the elite troops had to follow suit.

"Enjoy the benefits of our loot." Zhang Shi showed the joy of victory.

Korea. Xinzheng. Securities market.

"Adjustment, adjustment, is it really going to fall. You see, all the stocks have retraced about two dollars. Some investors said worriedly.

"Isn't it? I heard that Bangladesh and Latin America were at war, and our Korean army was less than 2,000 people, and the Chu army was only seven or eight hundred people at most, so they organized a large-scale military attack, and at the beginning we also defeated the Mengla army of more than 10,000 people. A middle-aged man said excitedly.

"Yes, it was reported in the newspapers. Official information from the government. No, two days ago, there was a big rise in the stock market. A middle-aged woman stepped forward and said.

"However, I don't know what's going on recently, our army didn't even build a rear base, so we boldly sent troops. Rush out all of them. The middle-aged man continued.

"They're just too bold. It's unimaginable that they went to attack the city of Mengla all at once, which is the capital of Mengla, and the army has more than 100,000 troops, although we hope to win for sure, but the comparison is too great. The middle-aged man said worriedly.

"You mean, we might lose?" The middle-aged woman asked worriedly.

"But no, an army of more than 100,000 is less than 3,000 people, and the other party still occupies the capital. They also have artillery. Muskets, no matter how we fight, no matter how we look at it, there is no chance of winning, I think, we should avoid the limelight, otherwise, it will be very disadvantageous. The middle-aged man said. Many people nodded in agreement, after all, there are risks. They can't ignore such factors. Because of the existence of risk aversion, there has been a technical adjustment in the securities market, which is the opinion of senior analysts. But the Koreans don't care about that.
