"How can the top let us send an attack. Damn it. A Goguryeo infantry sergeant cursed, and they hid in the trench motionless because they didn't know if the damned southerners on the opposite side would shoot at them.

"What's going on? Why didn't they shoot at us? A private held his rifle nervously, the bayonet on it rattling.

"Damn, do you want them to shoot you in the head?" The sergeant scolded.

"Nope. Sir, no, I don't want them to shoot me in the head, I just, hopefully. I don't know. Private said worriedly.

"Then you give me a forward, take your rifle and advance, get on the bayonet, advance." The sergeant ordered.

"Sir, those Southerners are going to shoot." Private said.

"I know. Who knows if they put us in first. Then a shot was fired at our head. Hit us in the head. Advance. The sergeant ordered.

"Okay. Advance. The private reluctantly grabbed his rifle and advanced. This is their commander, and their commander is also commanding the warlords with guns. The sergeant was also forced to helplessly. Private can only bend forward. Along the way, he had to keep looking for craters to conceal or low trenches. The sergeant in the back saw that nothing was wrong, and he moved forward quickly.

"Forward. Hurry up. The officer in the back impatiently ordered. The sergeant was extremely disgusted by this.

"Damn, this is here to die, and the above actually asked us to do such a thing." The sergeant scolded. Soon they were only fifty paces away from the southerners' positions. This distance is already the effective distance of the flintlock shot, and if a bullet is hit, it is easy to hang up. Even if he doesn't die, he will at least be crippled.

"Damn it." The sergeant scolded. The privates at the front had advanced to a very close distance, only ten paces away, and the probability of having been killed by the opponent at this distance was very high.

"Damn it, if he has advanced to such a distance, isn't he afraid of death? this distance. Damn it. The sergeant scolded. Then he took refuge and waited for the gunshots to ring. He felt that they would be able to advance to such a close distance. The reason may be that the southerners are running out of bullets, and they want to put them closer to shoot, so that they can kill many of them. The sergeant had always wanted to avoid such a thing, after all, getting hit by a bullet was no joke.

The sergeant waited for the shots to come out. But the gunshots never rang out.

"Damn it. Sergeant. Do you want to wait for me to carry you to the trenches of the Southerners? The gunshots did not wait, but waited for the voice of his commander. A lieutenant said to the sergeant with a pistol.

"Oh. No, I was waiting for the reaction of the private, and he went to the front. The sergeant didn't want to see someone with a pistol pointed at his head.

"I'll go." With that, the sergeant took the weapon in his hand and bent forward. He was also very careful, and the lieutenant waited in the trench. He also knew that such an advance was to send them to death, but their commander forced them to do so, and they didn't know what was going on, anyway, they ordered them to die. This annoyed them, but they had to do it.

"Sergeant, there is a situation. Sergeant. "Just as the sergeant was less than seven or eight paces away, the voice of the private shouted loudly from inside the trench.

"What's wrong? Are there many enemies? The sergeant asked aloud. He was already lying on the ground.

"No, it's not. No, sergeant, you come quickly, you look at them. You come and see. The private's voice was a little nervous, or rather, he was very nervous, so nervous that he couldn't speak.

"Tell me about it. What the hell is going on? The sergeant asked aloud.

"Sergeant, you'd better come and have a look. Things are so weird. "The private still won't tell the sergeant what happened. This made the sergeant very anxious, and he looked back at the lieutenant, who had been holding a gun to the sergeant's buttocks, and the sergeant cursed, so he had to be careful and quickly jumped into the trench, hoping that the damned southerners would die. This is the sergeant's greatest hope.

One enters the trench. The sergeant thought it was very strange, and the southerners weren't there.

"Sergeant, come and see, look." The private anxiously grabbed the sergeant's hand and went to a sheltered trench where he could rest, which was the forward position and a place to hide from the shells.

When the sergeant came here, he was startled, dense, and he didn't know, thinking that the southerners were asleep. They did not know about the arrival of the Goguryeo, but they saw that their eyes and nostrils were still bleeding, some of them were pale, and some of them had scratched their throats. It scared him.

"Oh my God. I. I've never seen such a state of death. "The sergeant is also a veteran. Because of the cheating and trickery, there was no further promotion, but he was indeed a veteran with rich combat experience, and the dead were no longer a matter for them. But that's it, he was also taken aback by the scene in front of him.

"Oh my God." The sergeant said.

"Sergeant, what are we going to do. These people are dying so strangely. I was scared when I looked at it. Private said.

"It's not that you're afraid, I'm also afraid, God knows how they died, it's so weird. Was there a cannon shot yesterday? The sergeant asked as he calmed down a little.

"No, Sergeant, we should all be able to hear yesterday's fire, but no. It's impossible for us not to hear that loud sound. Private said.

"Damn, what's going on with you?" It was at this moment that the lieutenant jumped in, and he walked over to the two men.

"Sir, look at these people, they died so badly. They look, very scary. The sergeant said, waving his arms.

"Damn, the upper side asked you to occupy the position, not to let you see the dead." The lieutenant glanced at the dead man, and he thought it was a little strange, but his order was to take the position. As for the rest, he didn't care. If the southerners react, they will have to do something.

"Alright. Go and be on guard, don't talk about it. This will be handed over to the people who come from behind, forward, hurry up. "The lieutenant ordered. The two people had to continue to occupy the position with their own weapons, and the resistance of the southerners was very weak, and even if there was resistance, they couldn't even pick up their own weapons, and soon, the Goguryeo people occupied the position, but. A lot of Goguryeo soldiers were talking about the dead people, they had seen a lot of dead people, but they had never seen such a way of dying, and there were too many strange things. For example, there was no sign of heavy artillery bombardment in this position, and most importantly, when they advanced to the enemy's position, the enemy did not resist at all, and all the people seemed to die of illness at once. Many people are puzzled. They discuss a lot of strange things.

Soon however, they stopped the discussion, as the southerners noticed the situation and they took the opportunity to launch some attacks, but they were quickly repulsed. And then there was no action.

"Don't let anyone discuss this matter, we've already won. That's it, don't talk about it. After receiving the report from the front, Li Sen waved his arm and said. Only a few people knew about this matter, and most people did not know that Goguryeo used poison gas to launch offensive operations.

Ram Fortress. On the position of the Yueshi people. Sturt took the binoculars and looked at the Ram fortress on the other side repeatedly.

"How beautiful." Sturt said.

"It's really beautiful, it won't be long before it will be blown up by your explosives, if you want to see it, just see more." Zhang Shun said.

"Come and eat, there is your favorite fruit, which is sent from the rear." Zhang Shun said. The food at the front line is still good, at least the soldiers can eat meat. Although it is canned meat, it is also meat, but the nutrition is very poor, and many soldiers can only go to the vicinity to collect wild fruits to eat, and even so, the health of the soldiers is still not very good. Their food is very simple, they can eat enough, but they can't eat well.

"Okay, have you got the explosives?" Sturt asked.

"We've dug underneath the fortress. A lot of space is expanding. A thousand stone of explosives can be developed inside. Those damn Indians would never have thought of it. Sturt said.

"Your work is very fast, and the above are already very satisfied, but the explosives still need to wait, only a batch has come today, and the explosives you need may be a little special." Zhang Shun said.

"We don't care, it's enough explosives to have enough explosives. Below we can expand a lot of space. Sturt said.

"However, my concern is not about this matter, but about how we can solve the current situation, we need to break through the Indian defenses, but we only have two infantry regiments. It is impossible for all of them to rush over. We need large-scale combat units. But the above has not been sent, and you will only need a few days to complete the planting of the explosives, but. Zhang Shun looked at the fortress not far away.

"After the bombing, we still need troops to occupy it, otherwise it will be useless at all." Zhang Shun said.

"This. I'm just a sapper, and I don't care about anything else, I want them to have new ideas. Sturt said.

"Okay. We don't know that. I don't know. Just hope they can fix something like this. Zhang Shun said.

Yue's Front Command. Inside Moran's office.

"We can't mobilize these forces for the time being. You also know about the arms smuggling. Moran said to Meng Ping.

"Of course I know that. I also know that they are not only smuggling arms, but also selling intelligence, and the nearby troops have been sold to the Indians. Meng Ping said.

"So, for that reason, it's impossible for us to get our forces out of this damn place, so we're going to have to keep them here, and then we'll be able to do that when we're halfway through the tunnels and the explosives are halfway placed." Moran said.

"What are you going to do?" Meng Ping asked.

"The situation is very simple, that is, when the Indians know about our troop build-up, we have completed the build-up there, and I will ask for some additional infantry regiments from the country to reach the vicinity of the Ram fortress. That will be our breakthrough. As long as they occupy it, the cavalry troops will quickly assemble there. Moran said.

"Well, I don't agree with your plan, the cavalry is indeed moving fast, but when they get there, we need some time to get them back into battle, the only way is to use deceptive means to strengthen our defense area, in addition, increase the barracks, let the cavalry move quickly, here we organize a large-scale illusion, to launch a larger-scale operation, only in this way, I believe, the Indians will be fooled, and then we can smoothly launch an offensive operation in Ram." Meng Ping said.

"Deception?" Moran asked.

"Yes, this is the only good way that our staff officers have come up with, and those businessmen will do everything they can to get reliable information about them and sell it to the Indians, who also know the methods of these arms dealers. We can sell them some fake news. They didn't care if the news was true or not, and if they wanted to know, they had to go to the barracks. Meng Ping said.

"Okay. I'll do it. Moran thought for a moment and said.

"Also, don't tell the officers at the last minute what we want to do, or we're going to be in a very bad place." Meng Ping said.

Moran nodded in agreement.

Laizhou Military Port. A group of two Qi warships set sail, they were the latest warships to be refitted, Tian Heng watched the warships set sail not far away, and not far away, there were thirty merchant ships that were urgently launched and loaded with goods overnight followed the warships south. They were loaded with some Qi specialties, such as kerosene, linen, dates and other goods. They don't know what the southerners will need, they can only come according to their own ideas, they think that these things are their specialties and can allow them to achieve their ends to a large extent. Of course, some of the merchant ships were also half loaded with cargo, and the rest were all people, and they were all people who were active in the south to make a fortune.

Koreans are very inspiring to them, and they have heard too much about the dream of making a fortune. When you go there, there is gold everywhere, the business is very good, and it's easy to get rich there, and a lot of people think that way, and they do the same.

"We've finally sent a fleet of merchant marines." Lou Jing said lightly. And Tian Heng is more serious.

"There were only two warships, and I thought there were three more, but it turned out that there were only two, and the other one lacked too much artillery." Tian Heng said.

"However, I think we can make it ourselves, learn the technology of casting artillery from Zhao Guo, and the Bank of Korea has agreed to our proposal, although the funds they provide are not too much, but they are enough for us to introduce such technology, but we have to use customs duties as collateral." Lou Jing said.

"The Koreans are so treacherous, but we don't have the funds, right. Propose it to Qin Guoshang and see if they have a better way. If they can solve our financial problems, I think we can understand that. Tian Heng said.

"Hmm. I have already sent this matter to the Qin State side. I just don't know what the people of Qin will think. Lou Jing said.

Qinguo, Xianyang, Wenyang Bank headquarters.

"Bank of Korea." Yingyu looked at the report in her hand and said.

"Yes, the Bank of Korea asked Qi to pledge their customs duties and provide them with about 10 million and a half taels, which are mainly used to order some locomotives, trains, and a part for the development of their shipyards, and the Korean side is also involved, especially in shipbuilding, locomotives." Xiao He said.

"Meaning, Koreans are doing this for themselves." Yingyu said.

"Yes." Xiao He said.

"But I don't think that has affected our plans, and if Qi wants to develop quickly, they will have to need more funds, which South Korea will not be able to meet their needs." Xiao He said.

"Hmm. Are we collateralized by the right to issue money? Yingyu said.

"Yes, only in this way can we make greater profits. This is our requirement and our purpose, because only by doing so can we have adequate funding. Xiao He said.

"Hmm. That's right, let's do this and see what the reaction of the Qi people is. If they can do something like that, we can also have peace of mind. Yingyu said.

"It's just that I'm worried that there will be a lot of pressure on the part of the government." Xiao He said.

"It's a government business, not our business." Yingyu said.

Inside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"The affairs of Zhao State may cause their situation to be unstable, and things may be a little difficult to deal with." Meng Yi reported.

"Hmm. It's their business to deal with it, they have to have a stable environment, and not only Li Mu, but also their council understands this. Shang Wen said.

"Well, however, there is one thing that is very surprising, the Qi people have received a large number of loans from the Koreans, in this case, their railways. Shipbuilding will develop, but they will mortgage their tariffs, which will cost a lot. Meng Yi said.

"If the Sabbatarians also mortgage their duties, I think our banks will also give them ample funds." Shang Wen said.

"But I don't think the banks are going to do that, because they don't get much benefit from doing that." Meng Yi said.

"Hmm. If you want trade to develop, you need to support it with taxes, and the Koreans are doing very well in terms of trade, but our banks need something. They wouldn't do it if they didn't have what they wanted. Shang Wen said.

"This. I don't know, maybe it's a resource, or maybe it's some kind of interest. Meng Yi said.
