In the process of expansion, the Western Regions was unwittingly infected with such a malaise, not so much a malaise as an industry of last resort, which was derived from the primitive needs of the human body, and people seemed to have no reason to eradicate such a malaise.

In the process of defense in the Western Regions, there has always been such a chaotic scene. However, there was no way, the cold and freezing in the Western Regions exceeded Zhao Jun's imagination, and even the experienced Qin army was unwilling to act in winter.

The other soldiers who were blocked off relied more on the spoils of war to survive, which allowed them to hold out until supplies were delivered. And their opponents, whether they are from the Western Regions or the Wusun people, they have lost their homes, as well as cattle and sheep, these are the foundation of their survival, in the face of the cold, they do not think about war, but survival, they need to find a place where they can survive. This place can only go further west, because a strong army appears in the east. They have a fire-breathing tube weapon that is so powerful that it can kill their bravest warriors from great distances.

And just when the Western Regions were plunged into a sea of joy, the Qin State newspaper finally removed the subject of the report. They don't focus on consumption. Instead, focus on some surrounding information. For example, the great retreat of the Yan army and the great offensive of the Qi army. There is also the election of Zhao Guo and so on. But these are all things that the people of Qin generally do not care about. Because, the Qin people don't think that these have much to do with them. As long as there is nothing to do in the Qin State, it will be fine. In the eyes of the Qin people, the Qin State is the center of this world.

The affairs of the Yan State, the attack of the Qi people, and the election of the Zhao State, these are not much of a concern for the Qin State, as long as the factories of the Qin State continue to operate and the products of the Qin State continue to sell, the Qin State is fine. Gradually, the state of Qin will be in the center, in fact, the state of Qin is already in the center.

However, just after the New Year in Qin, there is only one day of annual leave in the whole country, so you can imagine how hard-working Qin is a country. It is precisely this extremely industrious country that has stepped out of the scientific and technological power that usually takes hundreds of years to develop in such a short period of time. Of course, some special guidance from Shang Wen is indispensable, because at some key turning points, Shang Wen played the role of a mentor. However, it is not about who is the role of the mentor now, but about the impact of the new events on the Qin State.

"Outside the nickname, the water pirates of the Chu State attacked the merchant ships of the Qin State." A newsboy from six other countries shouted loudly.

"What. Get a newspaper. The Qin people walking on the road took out their banknotes and bought newspapers to read the latest news.

"What's going on, how can the ships of the Qin State be attacked." The Qin people, who saw the newspapers, were indignant at this incident of the attacked merchant ships. Especially in the state of Chu, something like this happened. And when mainstream newspapers reported it, they especially ignored one article. That is armed merchant ships, such merchant ships with an armed nature.

The reporter's movements were much faster than the news received by the Qin military. The Southern Naval Base of the Qin State Navy has not yet received news. But the reporter got this amazing news from the state of Chu. Although this news was obtained from the Chu people. Before even confirming the accuracy of the news, the Qin State reporter immediately used it to publish in the newspaper, which is dangerous. Because the news is incorrect, it has a big impact, but even so, Qin reporters are willing to do it. Because huge explosive news can also bring great vitality to newspapers. That's the power of journalism. In this era of scarcity of information. Naturally, journalists can feel that special agility in them.

"Look at the newspapers." An intelligence staff officer from the General Staff handed a newspaper he had just bought in the morning to the Adjutant of Intelligence.

"What is this? Do you want me to look at the supermarket discount and buy a dress for my wife, or some other dress? The adjutant said jokingly.

"Just look at it." The staff officer looked at the adjutant firmly.

The adjutant opened the newspaper with a relaxed face and checked the front page headlines. After he finished reading it, he didn't believe it and watched it again. Then he looked at the staff officer in surprise.

"Where did this news come from?" The adjutant asked in surprise.

"I don't know, I don't know where I came from. I don't even know how those reporters got the news. They are so capable, they should simply be meticulous. The staff officer also scolded angrily. In fact, they had no idea what was going on. Moreover, the news reporters always get the news before the military, which makes the staff and military personnel of the Qin State feel very faceless, especially the intelligence staff officers. Let them not know at all whether the word intelligence is a ridicule of them.

What happened in the military needs to be told by journalists. This was perhaps the worst period of Qin's military intelligence system. It's also the most special period of time.

"It's a bit of a big deal. We have to report to the Chief of Staff. The adjutant said eagerly.

"That's for sure." The staff officer said.

Then the two quickly reported the matter.

"Do you think it's true?" Wang Jian also said with a newspaper in his hand.

"This, I think, should be true. This kind of joke is not just a random joke. The intelligence officer said.

"Yes." Wang Jian nodded. Nothing was said, and now it's too late to say anything. And worst of all, now they don't even know if it's true. In particular, he also received a call from Wei Yu. He also called to ask Wang Jian if this incident really happened. And is it not that there has been any specific news. And Wang Qian's answer was that he didn't know anything.

"Your Majesty." Wang Jian motioned to everyone not to move.

"We don't know about this." Wang Jian said with some difficulty.

"We are verifying, and if there is a situation, we will report it immediately." Wang Jian put down the phone gently after the other party hung up the phone, obviously this was King Qin to ask about the specific situation, Wang Qian's answer obviously made King Qin a little disappointed.

And on the other side. Shang Wen didn't know that such a thing was happening, because he was too busy to read the newspaper, and they were calculating how much money they could raise for public infrastructure.

However, Meng Yi still looked at the newspaper and told Shang Wen the shocking news.

"Have you read the newspaper?" Meng Yi said with a newspaper in his hand.

"What's wrong? Did the newspapers say anything? Shang Wen looked at Meng Yi questioningly and said.

"Look at this." As he spoke, Meng Yi handed the newspaper to Shang Wen.

"What?" Shang Wen took the newspaper suspiciously and said.

"Oh my God." Shang Wen said in surprise.

"When is this happening, now, there is trouble." Shang Wen's first feeling was that this question was a bit tricky. Especially the problems that have arisen on the part of the navy, and many similar things have already happened in the navy.

"What are we going to do? Now is not to determine whether this news is true or not. In short, there must be a problem on the part of the Navy. We've got to fix that. Meng Yi continued.

"Whew." Shang Wen exhaled deeply, in fact, he didn't know what to do.

By five o'clock in the afternoon. Ten hours have passed since the newspaper reported the news. Qin officials still have not made an official response.

According to the information sent back by the reporter at the front, the military still has not made any response to the attack on the Qin merchant ship, and the military top brass has been summoned by the Qin king. The prime minister's spokesman also kept silent on the matter. So said the live broadcast of the radio broadcast.

"It's not about whether we're sure it's happening, it's about what we should do about it, and maybe that's what happened ahead. And we also know that the reporter's information is always so weird. Shang Wen said.

"That's true, there is still no such news from the Southern Naval Base." Wang Jian said. Wei Yi, Feng Quji and others also nodded in approval. And King Qin didn't say a word. The atmosphere was a little cold.

"Your Majesty, the latest news." At this time, Zhao Guo walked softly to the King of Qin and handed over a telegram.

"Oh." King Qin took the telegram and looked at it, then motioned for Zhao Guo to show it to everyone.

This telegram came from the Southern Naval Base. King Qin had actually sent a telegram in the morning, asking him to investigate the matter immediately, and this matter naturally did not dare to be delayed by the navy, because the Captain's Office also sent it, the Admiralty also sent it, the General Staff Department also sent it, Shang Wen also sent it here, and the King of Qin also sent it here. The content is almost always the same. Determine if this is true. Faced with such pressure, the Navy quickly sent people out to check the situation. However, it is impossible for the Navy to get accurate information in another day, because it takes at least three days to see the scene.

However, the navy still looked for the reporter who first released the news, and after finding the reporter, it found the fisherman who provided the news, and the fisherman then looked for another fisherman to confirm it, so it took half a day and a hundred miles to get the accurate confirmation of the news. Then, in the afternoon, a quick reply was made.

After reading this report, so the people stopped talking. It is now certain that this happened. The next thing to think about is what to do. Shang Wen's mind was a little blank, the development of the naval career was even more troublesome than he imagined. Because, these things turned out to be so tortuous, which made Shang Wen a little distressed, and the Qin State had already initially shown two factions. One faction develops land hegemony, while Shangwen's faction has no strength at all, and it has been repeatedly attacked. That's the way things are now. Navy, there is no way at all.
