After Shang Wen sent the two away. And he went back to work. However, that sharpshooter has the potential to become a sniper in the Marine Corps. In the future, the Qin State will greatly reduce the number of large-scale foreign wars. It turns out. There are too many times, and the damage to the Qin State is great.

But those skirmishes. Cannibalization is still very much needed. Because, the opponent is already weak. Moreover, the cost of using a large-scale army is suspected of Lang fees. But with the use of the Marine Corps, such a fast-moving unit. As well as a large number of security guards, armed personnel of trading companies, it is more than enough to deal with them.

And in fact, just as Shang Wen originally thought. In this way, the responsibility for the war was shifted to the people, which greatly mobilized the war potential of the Qin State. In the army, some soldiers. In particular, veterans have begun to apply for retirement on their own initiative. Some of them have served as long as 10 years. It can be said that there is a lot of experience. The reason for the retirement is simple. While he is still young, and, now, the security guard, the trading company recruits a large number of people. Especially those veterans, officers, who have combat experience. The pay they give is very good. Moreover, a lot of the loot is the same as the army. It's all their own, but the company can buy it from them. You know, the postal system is not going to be deployed in their area of operations. The army only has a specialized letter system. So, most of their loot was sold to the company. And he left only a small part of his belongings and a large amount of money in his hands. Then, a bank representative will appear, or the company will help them open an account and deposit it in the bank. This is actually a kind of squeezing in disguise.

But the veterans are used to this. They need someone to manage it. In particular, to provide them with logistical supply support like the army. If they don't have a technology to go into society all at once. They won't do anything. Especially those veterans with rich combat experience. They have been in the army for too long. It is already difficult to integrate into society. Especially now that the state of Qin has changed a lot.

So they took the initiative to apply for retirement and wanted to find a job as a security guard and trade armed man. There, they earn enough money. Then go home. The younger ones marry and have children. The older ones will use the money to buy some family property. A lot of people in the leisure time of the battle, discussed. Give each other ideas. They also pay attention to newspapers. In particular, there are newspapers for immigration information. They are eager to go to a new state. Over there. Able to buy a large plot of land. Then, herd the sheep, the horses, or so, plant some wheat or something. It's better to have some slaves. You can be completely idle. Have some wine. Talk to your wife. Tell stories of the battle to your children. Either that, or on horseback. Ask a few people to go hunting. How interesting that is. A lot of people think so. They spend too long in a stressful environment. They need to be calm. Peaceful life. Join the action now. It's to earn a big piece of industry for yourself.

And many young people are different from these veterans. What they crave is wealth. They feel that they should make a fortune quickly and then live a rich, carefree life. Many young people are reluctant to join the military and prefer to join security companies. Compared with. The attractiveness of the army has dropped a lot. For example, in terms of remuneration. The salary of an ordinary soldier in the Qin army is only one-third of the daily income of an ordinary employee of a security company. This is just the pay, if a large number of slaves are acquired. Then this number will suddenly become several times that of a soldier. If you're lucky, it's a hundred times more than a soldier. It's windfall profits.

And the barracks life is very boring. But it's a different story here. As long as it's safe enough. There will be no restrictions on alcohol. As long as you pay for it. This is much more generous compared to the Qin army, which can only drink after a big victory, or drink with war money. In a word. The attractiveness of the army is declining. This presents a good opportunity for disarmament. But the appeal must also be enhanced. Otherwise, the national defense problem will get out of control.

Compared with the Qin army's initiative to disarm consciousness. Zhao Jun's difficulties are very great. Because their exercises can no longer be performed.

Li Mu was collecting military rations everywhere. The morale of the soldiers of the Zhao Army during the exercise was generally not high. I wanted to test my army through exercises, but as a result, it was difficult to raise morale. The reason is that a large amount of military rations cannot be supplied in time. Soldiers have only two meals a day. And very poor. And there are, only one day a day. So, most of the time of the exercise, the soldiers were lying on the ground and dozing off. When he received an order to advance, he was also extremely reluctant, and in order to complete the task, he often coped with things. Then go to sleep. Some people who can't stand the hunger go around digging wild vegetables.

The reason for the lack of food can be found out in a young official named Hang Jiawei. This young officer was mainly responsible for the delivery of military rations. But the military rations were not enough every time. The resentment of the army is great. He also knew that sooner or later something would happen. So, I went to check it myself. Check it out. The result was a big surprise. A large amount of military rations were taken out of the warehouse. Then it was transported away in the direction of the Qin State.

Then this attentive official sent someone to the Qin State to continue to investigate. The news that he was sent back a month later took him by surprise. Then quickly reported the matter to Li Mu.

"What?" Li Mu was also taken aback after listening to the young official's words in detail.

It turned out that a large amount of grain was transported into the exchange warehouse of the Qin State, because the futures trading was a huge profit. Because the principle of price leverage is very profitable. This immediately attracted the participation of some merchants from the six countries who were gambling in nature. Gradually, they discovered that this grain. You can control it yourself. That's what they themselves think. So, they bought a lot of grain. Soon a large amount of grain was sold out. So, they aimed at military rations. Gradually, some of the ministers and these businessmen got together.

They didn't know that Guo Kai had already entered the futures market to trade. A big reason for the lack of military rations is to trade with Qin. They want to sell a lot of short. Short selling requires a large number of warehouses in the Qin State to be filled. Their wishful thinking is a good fit.

Food prices are high right now. If once it falls. That's a double the earnings. Then, he took the opportunity to buy. After the purchase, it was transported back to the grain depot. This is something that God doesn't know. In this way, you can make a lot of money without paying a penny. How could Guo Kai not do it. As a result, a large amount of Zhao Jun's military rations began to be transported away. The soldiers are now exercising, and the rations have been transported. They can only starve. There is no food. What do hundreds of thousands of armies eat. If you can't eat enough, can you still perform?
