"The issue of the colonies, I see, is actually encouraging us to attract money from them to participate. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Han Shu said.

"Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for countries to have a large amount of money to develop their own colonies, and at this time, the Qin State encourages us to do so. It's hard to figure out. Zhang Liang said.

In the last item of the meeting, no one thought of the issue of colonies, before, Qin constantly encouraged countries to have their own colonies, but at that time, the situation was that the domestic situation of each country was very bad, so Qin's proposal was unbearable for them. But now, the situation in various countries has improved slightly, and the Qin state has encouraged countries to start colonies. On the issue of colonies, Qin was able to give maximum financial support, which greatly surprised the countries. Under such circumstances, the countries did not know what the Qin State thought. Therefore, the meeting was temporarily suspended, and all parties actively discussed specific countermeasures.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that the ideas of the Qin State and ours should coincide, in specific matters, such as the current colonial expansion of our Korea, our colonies are mainly islands, and the development of products is not very sufficient, and most of our goods are made intuitively." Zhang Liang said.

"It can be said that the development of the colonies was extremely slow due to the lack of development in various places, and the lack of population." Zhang Liang continued.

"Although we thought of using the financial industry to promote the development of our colonies, the situation was not too good." Zhang Liang said.

"What do you mean?" Han Shu asked.

"That is, our colonies have not been further developed, but only at the surface. The intensity of development is also not very large. If this continues, South Korea's development of the South Seas will be insufficient. Zhang Liang said.

"Korea has a colony and needs a lot of merchant ships, where does the money come from? If we can bring in the capital of the Qin State, I think we can solve this problem to a large extent. Zhang Liang said.

"Hmm." Han Shu nodded.

"In this way, it will still be good for us in Korea, but, think about it, Sangwen is also right, if we develop the colonies, it will bring new markets, and they can also have greater investment needs, before, we kept trying, but there is no capital to enter. Now, with the support of Qinguo Bank's investment funds, this is a great help for us. Han Shu said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, if the nations can think the same way, it will also be a kind of support for us." At this time, Zhang Liang said.

"Hopefully they can get the answers they want at the conference." Han Shu said.

In Li Mu's temporary office.

"The Qin State encouraged us to establish more colonies, and most of the funds came from the investment of the Qin State Bank." Li Mu said.

"Do you think such a thing is reliable?" Li Mu asked Li Zuoche. Li Zuoche's avant-garde thinking, and many times, this avant-garde thinking can bring great unexpected gains.

"I think so." Li Zuoche said.

"If we have a colony, and besides, the Qin people invest, we only need to have a project. If we have a project, we will be able to make money, and the funds will come from the Qin State, and we have nothing to worry about. Li Zuoche said.

"As the prime minister said, we have an injection of funds, which is of great benefit to us, and our business can be bigger. Prime Minister, that's what I think. If we have more colonies, we can do more construction, and at the same time carry out greater trade, after all, colonies are more established in border areas, such as a few nomadic tribes, or the land of other ethnic minorities, our Zhao country currently has a large number of iron factories, and the iron produced by these iron factories only needs to be processed a little. Our iron can become a bestseller. Li Zuoche said.

"From the point of view of the State of Qin, it is estimated that the State of Qin is also taking into account the problem of our iron market, so it further asks to encourage us to develop colonies, after all, the population of Zhao State still has a certain amount of surplus, and at the same time, from the point of view of imports, iron will only increase, considering that our market is getting smaller and smaller, I think the development of colonies is very beneficial to Zhao State." Li Zuoche said.

"Hmm. You're right, and this time it's the Qin State that invests it, that is to say, the Qin State will give a large amount of capital support, so it will have a great impact on the Zhao State, which has never been done before. Li Mu said.

"Therefore, I have decided that Zhao Guo agreed to Qin's request for contribution. Zhao should increase the focus on this and attract these Qin capital to Zhao. Li Mu decided. The reason why Li Mu made such a decision was because Shangwen's decision was largely beneficial to Zhao State. On the one hand, Zhao can expand its territory, and at the same time, it can also increase its own finances and taxes, so why not do such a good thing. Moreover, the point is that as long as there is a project, Zhao can attract the capital of Qin, such a thing. Never before, Zhao Guo begged the Qin State Bank for a loan. Now it's different. Zhao Guoren can invest in Zhao Guoren, as long as they think this matter is good, they can get sufficient financial support.

This is the case in several other countries, which they consider to be very beneficial to them. In the context of development, the lack of capital operation is a very difficult thing, and the Qin State relies on sufficient capital in its own hands to complete the investment project, in fact, this is also another invasion method of the Qin State. It's just that everyone is willing to accept this method, and in fact, they have to accept it.

Qi State, Mengshan in the area under the actual control of the Chu army.

"Sir, the terrain here is very strange, if you want to enter the territory of Qi from here, there is only this road, and the mountains here are not high, thirty miles to the south, it gradually becomes a plain, where the Chu army is particularly well defended, they have built a large number of trenches there, we are afraid it will be difficult for us to pass, if we want to pass through, it is estimated that there is only this place. However, there is only one way into the mountain. On the hill at the junction were more than 200 Chu troops. A corporal introduced a major staff officer.

"Hmm. Is it detailed on the map? Staff Major then asked.

"It's very detailed, we can write all the information about the investigation on it. Indeed, there were at least 13,000 people stationed in the Chu army, and most of them gathered in the plains. The corporal continued.

"Hmm. Got it. All right. Go down and rest. The Major said, waving.

"Yes. Sir. The corporal saluted and left.

As he spoke, the Major began to mark some of the detected situations on the map.

"How's it going?" Chen Boyan asked his chief of staff, Zhang Hou.

"That's the latest situation." Zhang Hou said.

"Hmm." Chen Boyan nodded. Then I didn't ask any more questions. He knew that his staff was compiling the latest information.

Chen Boyan is a major general and brigade commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade of the South Korean Army. This is a new combat unit formed by the ROK Army's temporary troops, and the 1st Brigade is under the jurisdiction of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment. The 5th Cavalry Regiment, as well as the 1st Rapid Artillery Battalion. The number of people is more than 5,000.

His staff officers are busy nervously, and Chen Boyan is holding a telescope to check the terrain in the distance, the cavalry has greater requirements for the terrain, and the plain is the most ideal combat area, but usually the blockade there is the tightest, and the mountainous area is the most unwilling place to touch, as long as the other party occupies a commanding height, concentrated fire blockade, his cavalry will suffer very large casualties.

Chen Boyan graduated from the Qin State Army Military Academy. He was originally a junior infantry officer, but because of his active combat and the rapid expansion of the South Korean New Army, he was gradually promoted to the position he is today, and he is still very young compared to other officers. Only thirty-five years old. It is precisely because of this youth that his fighting style is always very aggressive.

Now he quietly took the telescope to check the situation of the Chu army. This place is not far from the Chu army, and the high-powered telescope can see the layout of the army more clearly.

The artillery positions of the Chu army were clearly arranged behind the infantry positions, and a large number of obstacles were set up in front of the infantry positions. There are a lot of them

To the north, there is a hilly area. The vegetation was so dense that he couldn't see what was on the hill. It can only be seen from the scout's reconnaissance report. However, judging from his intuition, he felt that the Chu army would definitely deploy a certain number of troops on the mountain, and the firepower configuration would be better. His task is to reinforce, not to entangle with the Chu army in front of him. His time is very limited, and the longer he drags on, the worse it will be for him.

"Sir. Our situation is cleared. At this time, Zhang Hou said to Chen Boyan.

"Hmm." Chen Boyan put down the telescope in his hand and nodded.

"Good. What's the situation, let's talk about it. Chen Boyan said.

"This is our latest map. If we want reinforcements, we have to cross this line. Then turn south and quickly intersperse to Jimo City. There was a fast-passing road there, and the situation of the Chu army behind was relatively simple, and there were no decent troops to hinder it. Chief of Staff Zhang Hou said.

"In other words, if we want to complete the task at present, we must pass through this defense line of the Chu army?" Chen Boyan asked.

"Yes, sir." Zhang Hou said.

"What's your plan?" Chen Boyan looked at the map and said. On the map, there is only one road leading to Jimo City. And if they want to complete their mission, they must travel through this area.

"Crossing through the mountains, where the defense was weaker, only two hundred men. We only need to launch a sneak attack to solve the problem quickly, we are cavalry, and we will pass very quickly. Zhang Hou said.

"Hmm." Chen Boyan nodded.

"There are two hundred people there, and there are three guns on them?" Chen Boyan asked.

"Yes, sir. We also have artillery. It's just that it's all direct-fire artillery, but ours is light and can fight in the mountains. Zhang Hou said.

"Hmm. Attack them with our artillery. Then launch a surprise attack. Wipe out the Chu army in that stronghold in one fell swoop, clear all the obstacles on the road, and we pass quickly. Chen Boyan said.

"We'll plan it in more detail." Chief of Staff Zhang Hou nodded and said.

"Good. And so it did. Chen Boyan nodded and said.

In the woods a hundred miles northwest of Jimo City. Soldiers of the South Korean Marine Corps are resting quietly. They have already received combat duty, and the battle will soon begin.

"This is the grenade that was given to us above, this thing, we didn't have equipment before, I think, some of you will definitely use it, but most of us still don't use it." Zhang Bao, commander of the fifth company of the second battalion of the first regiment of the Marine Corps, whispered. Zhang Bao said with a grenade. He also just got his hands on it. The grenades and mines sold to South Korea were quickly transferred to the South Korean Marine Corps, and the transportation of such grenades and mines really cost a lot of effort by South Korean intelligence officers, who bought a lot of money for the Chu army guards.

"Sir. This thing, I know, I just used this thing at the Qin State Military Academy. Wang Gang, who was impatient, said. He was the platoon commander of the second platoon. He graduated from the Qin Army Military Academy to serve as a platoon commander.

"I know you'll use it, but others won't. Some of our warriors have not seen this thing yet. So, I want to teach you, you then teach these grenades to your soldiers, so that they can learn these grenades, but you must note that this grenade can only be taught, not tried here. Zhang Bao said.

"This is a war zone, there is no way. This batch of weapons came very suddenly. Zhang Bao said.

"There's no way, we can only go to the battlefield and give it a try." Zhang Bao said helplessly. The South Korean military was not equipped with grenades, which were the standard weapons of the Qin army, and many times the grenades exerted their firepower superiority suppressed the enemy. The role of the grenade is also constantly being explored by the Qin army.

But South Korea could not get such weapons, and Qin restricted South Korea from using such weapons, in their opinion, such weapons greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the South Korean army, and also posed a great threat to the Qin army, and once the war started, it would cause great casualties to the Qin army, so Qin did not export such weapons, and South Korea could not obtain technical materials for production. As a result, South Korea cannot be equipped with such weapons.

With the sale of such a batch of arms by the Qin army to South Korea. South Korea is also armed with a large number of grenades. But it is a pity that they have already entered the battlefield, and they are learning to use such a powerful weapon in a battlefield environment, and it is impossible for them to have the opportunity to use such a weapon on the battlefield. This was something that Zhang Yi was very worried about at first.

In the battlefield environment, South Korean soldiers do not have the opportunity to try such weapons, they will take these grenades directly to the battlefield, so to speak, they have to go to war without training, and South Korean soldiers do not know if they can learn and grow up in such an environment. You know, they want to launch offensive operations, and they take the initiative to attack when the number of people is several times less than that of the opponent. Although the grenades can give them a great advantage in firepower, but, after all, they have not mastered the use of this weapon very well, and even worse, it is distributed before the start of the war, they only teach it verbally, and there is no actual operation, then according to the situation, he really does not know what role the South Korean Marine Corps can play. But there was no way, their troops were less than the other side, and in order to gain an advantage in weapons, they had to distribute them as a last resort. This may be a psychological comfort.

After some explanation. Zhang Bao finally taught his platoon commanders how to use grenades, and the platoon commander led his subordinates to distribute grenades to his squad leader, and then taught the squad leader to distribute grenades.

"Remember them all. This kind of thing can only be taught, and you can only try it when you fight. You know? Zhang Bao said sternly.

"Whoever has an accident. Lao Tzu was the first to shoot him. Zhang Bao said sternly. The above also gave him the order in this way, the grenade is very powerful, but it can also attract the attention of the Chu army. Therefore, they can only be used after the start of the war.

Subsequently, the platoon commanders distributed ammunition and returned to their ranks.

"Give. Yours. Four grenades, don't mess around. Wang Gang threw four grenades to Corporal Zhang Sen on the side.

"What is this?" Zhang Sen asked curiously.

"Don't move." Wang Gang shouted loudly. His voice was somewhat loud, attracting the attention of the other soldiers.

"Open this lid, there's a pull ring underneath, and as soon as you pull it open, it smokes, and after four or five seconds this thing explodes." Wang Gang said.

"This thing, it's like a cannonball. You know how to use it. Wang Gang said as he closed the lid of the grenade in his hand and threw the grenade to Zhang Sen.

"This thing is really good, in this case, our infantry will have artillery. This thing, I wanted to have something like this, and with something like this, blow up those turtle grandchildren. Zhang Sen opened the lid and said.

"Cover me, no one can use it before it starts, and when it starts, you can use it however you want." Wang Gang said.

"This." Zhang Sen looked at his superior.

"There's no way, who let the good things be held up there, and they won't give it to you until the fight starts, it's really fucking." Wang Gang scolded.

"That's a good thing." Zhang Sen said with a smile.

"Damn, with this thing, you don't have to rush over with an explosive bag in the future. Take something, it's too heavy. Besides, if you don't get it right, the fire will go out, damn it, last time I had a brother go back and light the fire, and as a result, it exploded, and it became a pile of rotten meat. Zhang Sen said.

"Alright. Don't look. Hurry up and teach your men grenades and distribute them. It is estimated that the battle is about to start. The canned fruit was sent out. This time it got bigger. Wang Gang said.

"Alright. I'll go. Zhang Sen said.

At this time, Wang Gang was thinking about how to fight this war next and what role he would play in the war. He really didn't know how many people would die next. Thinking of this, he felt a headache, so he lay down and fell asleep.

Outside the city. A long ox cart came out of Jimo City, and in addition to some food supplies, there was also a large pile of goods on the cart.

"Damn, what kind of errand is this?" Uncle Chen said dissatisfiedly while carrying his musket.

"It's good in the city, his grandmother's, send it out to escort these things." Uncle Chen said dissatisfied. In Jimo City, he can eat all kinds of delicious food, and sometimes he can find a woman from Qi to have a good time, but the general on their head doesn't know what nerves they have, they actually come to escort the goods, hearing such an order, Chen Bo is full of complaints, which means that there is no such beauty. There are military missions that have to go a long way every day to finish. He was no longer used to such a life.

"Alright. Stop it. Yan San, another veteran on the side, said.

"Can you bear it?" Uncle Chen asked.

"Yes. If you can't bear it, you have to endure it. Yan San held up the musket on his shoulder and said.

"Damn it. These heavenly aristocrats. Uncle Chen scolded.

"Alright. Say a few words less. Yan San came over and comforted.

"Hmm. You say, "What are the things on this ox cart, and five thousand people are required to escort them?" Uncle Chen asked at this time.

"This." Yan San looked around, and the Qi people who had been recruited left them carefully, they had been beaten many times along the way. These Chu troops defending the city were full of complaints, and when they really had nowhere to vent, they vented their anger on these Qi people, and they were afraid. There is no choice but to avoid these Chu soldiers.

"I heard that it was full of goods from the nobility, and these things were transported to Wei and then to Korea, and Qin was able to sell them at a very high price." Yan San said carefully.

"Damn it. These nobles, they transport such expensive goods, don't think about peace along the way. Yan San said dissatisfiedly.

"Those Qi people can't wait to kill us Chu people every day, damn it, they still got so many goods, isn't this our life?" Chen Bo said dissatisfiedly.

"Yes." Yan San said.

"All speak to me." At that moment, a chariot galloped quickly, and a young general above shouted loudly waving a leather whip in his hand. The soldiers of the Chu army on both sides of the road dodged one after another.

"Hurry up. Don't procrastinate. The general of the Chu army on the chariot ordered loudly.

"Hurry, hurry." That's when the team started to pick up. Some of the junior officers began to urge. Chen Bo and Yan San had to run quickly.

"Fuck, these hurtful brutes. You can't walk slowly. Uncle Chen said a little breathlessly. It's been a long time since they've walked this fast. Yan San's steps were also a little frivolous, obviously he couldn't stand it. There was no choice but to move forward quickly and follow the team. In order to speed up and make profits as soon as possible, the noble generals will not cherish these soldiers at all, in their opinion, only getting the payment as soon as possible is what they are most concerned about, and these soldiers are not worth mentioning at all.

And just as the Chu army was advancing rapidly, someone was watching them from afar.
