Although the Yan army retreated, the Qi army's assault team only gently tore a small hole in the Yan army's defensive line. Achieving a breakthrough in the entire line of defense is not yet counted.

The reason why the Qi army could not break through the defense line of the Yan army on a large scale. One of the most important reasons is the lack of firepower. In particular, the number of artillery pieces cannot be compared with the artillery of the Yan army. Most of the Yan army's artillery came from the Qin army's outdated artillery, and the number of these guns was enough to put the Yan army in a state of superiority in the entire defense line. The most important point is that the Yan army's artillery fire came from the Qin army. The Qin army always concentrated artillery and used it to form a special artillery unit. The Qi army, on the other hand, did not have a special artillery unit. Artillery was often dispersed among the infantry. In this way, even if the Qi army has a sufficient number of artillery, it cannot form a local firepower advantage, and this shortcoming leads to the fact that the Qi army cannot effectively use the assault effect achieved by the assault team to further expand the results of the battle.

Just when the Qi army was trying to regain the country. The domestic situation in Zhao was very chaotic.

"Hit, hit me hard." A group of young men with thick arms and thighs, dressed a little well-dressed, rushed out of an alley. They were armed with sticks, and some with sharp swords. These young men were poorly dressed, but they fought fiercely.

"Give us a pay increase and work fewer hours." A crowd of people was abruptly interrupted by this group of young men.

"Bang." Before the marchers could recover, one of the women on the far side was knocked down with a blow. Blood soon flowed from his head.

"Hit, beat to death. Damn, dare to protest. A young man with a head in the face stood aside and shouted loudly with a big stick in his hand.

"Damn, don't let people live. It's the master. The men in the procession began to stand up and fight the young men wielding big sticks and swords. Zhao Min has always been martial, and everyone is brave and ruthless. In the face of such challenges, it is natural to work hard.

The difference in strength between the two sides was not much, and they fell into a chaotic situation for a while. The parade was interrupted.

Such scenes often happen on the streets of Handan, Zhao State, not only in Handan, as long as Zhao Guo is a little bigger, there are such things in places where there is coal. The situation in Zhao has entered a place of extreme chaos.

The above scene is actually a disguised heavy-handed measure to eliminate the miners' demonstrations. The miners bought off the local street ruffians and unemployed gangsters. These people are people who take money to do things, and as long as the mine owner has money, anything can be done. Especially in this chaotic situation, they quickly became the thugs of these mine owners.

This kind of demonstration, even King Zhao was helpless, especially the interference of the minister. This made King Zhao dare not use force to solve it. But in fact, King Zhao has always been the main force of tough measures, because, coal, not your family, but also the north of Qin, Taiyuan, Shangdang and other places. There is also the Liaodong region of Yan State, Chu State has also discovered coal, and even South Korea has participated in the excavation of coal mines.

Zhao's taxes came mainly from the taxes of these coal miners. In particular, Zhao exported a large amount of coal to Qin, and Zhao's advantage was that he had abundant high-quality coal in Daidi and Yunzhong, and some places were open-pit coal mines, and another advantage was that Zhao was close to Qin. The industrial development of the Qin state required a large number of coal mines. This made Zhao quite dependent on Qin. In particular, the coal mines that Zhao attaches great importance to make Zhao's economy more and more regionally homogeneous, Qin sent geological experts to the six countries for prospecting free of charge, in fact, the biggest intention is to let them compete with each other, and Qin imports a large number of cheap mineral products, and then slowly relies on the export of this raw material, and finally achieves the purpose of regional economic unity. Once the economy is homogeneous, then it is very simple to control.

King Zhao didn't have such a long-term plan at all. He sees only the immediate benefits. If Zhao Guo does not produce coal for a day, then Zhao Guo will have no income for a day, and there will be no income for a day, then Zhao Guo will completely go bankrupt, and this sense of crisis can be seen by King Zhao.

In King Zhao's eyes, the death of a few people is nothing. The low wages given are not a problem at all. He didn't understand why these people were making trouble. King Zhao really couldn't figure it out. Just when King Zhao was distressed by this. Guo Kai made a suggestion. He proposes to hire some street thugs as thugs to solve these problems.

As soon as this move was proposed, it was immediately approved by King Zhao. Subsequently, the situation in Zhao State once again entered an extremely chaotic situation. Street fights have risen dramatically. The parade was temporarily disrupted. But this move has plunged Zhao into an even more chaotic law and order problem.

"I have more than a dozen wounded here every day. If there were several fights today, I would have to put the wounded in the aisle. The reporter said in an interview with a doctor of Qin Guo in Handan, Zhao State.

With the passage of time, the in-depth investigation of Qin reporters, the truth of all facts is gradually emerging. More and more evidence points to the fact that the miners of Zhao hired thugs to deliberately disrupt the parade. Not only that, but some secret tricks have gradually been exposed, such as using intimidation, threats and other means to force him to stop the march and go to work. This kind of behavior is not uncommon.

"With the fights and brawls in Zhao State, the intentional threats and intimidation incidents of commercial enterprises occurred, and the number of social hooligan groups in Handan alone in Zhao State has risen from the original few digits to 100 digits, and the gang disputes of these hooligan groups have also caused repeated street bloodshed on the streets of Handan, Zhao State. The crime rate in society is at an all-time high. The relevant departments reminded the people of Qin to pay attention to their personal safety in Zhao, and if there is any problem, please contact the Qin embassy in time. The government has the responsibility to protect the lives and property of every Qin citizen. The Express reported.

The situation in Zhao was also a concern for Qin, who did not want to lose a source of raw materials that could provide coal power cheaply. In particular, the suspension of some coal mines in Zhao made the coal supply in Qin tend to be tight. Especially in August, every household in the Qin country began to hoard a large amount of coal for the winter. This will intensify demand for coal and push up coal prices.

Shang Wen also believes that it is still necessary for the Qin State to intervene. Because Qin was in a dominant position in the economy, the close economic exchanges between the two countries made the relationship between the two countries extraordinary. However, Shang Wen believes that some more appropriate excuses should be put forward beforehand. Or an appealing reason.
