2813 Li Mu, who lacks experience in political struggle

The population of the Seth country, the South Korean security zone, has expanded to more than 20,000 people, but they are not worried about food or other things, and the Seth people have built their coastal ports under the planning of the Koreans. The camp was also expanding, and some Seth merchants began to gather here. Guo Xiang was very satisfied with this, but there was still no Korean expedition, and the merchant ships came, which made them feel very helpless, although they had already sent someone to contact them. But there is still no news, which makes him very anxious.

"What? No news yet? Zhang Bi came over and asked.

"No, there's no news, you know. Ships don't travel that fast, except in airplanes, which can't go that far. The current situation is really worrying, we don't have any backup, but fortunately the Sabbatarians are on our side, and we are not too involved in the Seth war. Guo Xiang said.

"Hmm." Zhang Bi said.

"The condition of the Sabbaths is also very bad. Their assault on Baghdad was met with great resistance and heavy losses. A large number of cannons, muskets were lost, and it is said that the Seth had learned to use trenches to defend against muskets. Now the Sabbatarians retreated more than a hundred miles and began to hold their positions, but the consumption of ammunition was very staggering, Hazabi thought. Let's tell them the secret recipe, which is the formula for gunpowder, but I only told him a civilian version, the recipe for those gunpowder used to make firecrackers, and it's up to them to find the most suitable one. Zhang Bi said.

"You told them the recipe for gunpowder?" Guo Xiang looked at the proportion in surprise and said.

"Yes. Told them, just a civilian version. Don't worry, the ammunition they need will still be imported from us. Many weapons are no longer suitable for the Sabbaths. Zhang Bi said.

"But the Sabbatarians have also given us a lot of benefits, for example, we can trade with the Seths, we can trade with them, Basra City may not be rebuilt, and our port is the future New Basra City." Zhang Bi said.

"Well, I don't know what you think, I can't be interested in these things right now, after all, everything here is so unfamiliar." Guo Xiang shook his head and said. There is no way, there are not many people here who can speak Korean, although the Seth people keep learning, but there is no news in the local area, but Guo Xiang is very anxious, he is not interested in anything.

"Hehe, I know what kind of thing you have, let me tell you, where do those black people come from?" Zhang Bi said with a smile.

"Negroes, you say those negroes?" Guo Xiang asked.

"Yes, it's the blacks, I know where they come from, Hazabi told me." Zhang Bi said.

"Where did they come from?" Guo Xiang asked. This may be his only interest, he thinks that those black people look very strange, because their skin is very dark, I don't know, Guo Xiang thought they are from the coal mining area.

"They came from Africa, as the scholars of the Seth told me, and a name for the Sabbats, and to the west, there was a place called Soma. There are black people there, they have dark skin, maybe the weather there is very hot, there is drought, but next to the sea, in the north, the skin of the people there will gradually turn white, but there is a big desert, or next door, but it doesn't matter, there is a river there, directly into another place called, the Mediterranean, what is there, the place of the Silas, anyway, we don't know those places, there is only one way to get there. It's the road to Baghdad, and there's another way through the desert, and it's all hot sand that will steam people dry, and it's a place where very few people pass, and half of them don't want to go there. Zhang Bi said.

"Oh my God. I don't know what you're talking about. I've never heard of those, how do you know that? Guo Xiang asked, he still has an adventure factor in his bones.

"Don't be in a hurry, communicate with those Seth scholars, learn their language, and they learn your language, so that the communication is much faster. So, you know, it doesn't take a long time to know that. Zhang Bi said lightly.

"You're really amazing." Guo Xiang admired. Then he began to learn the local language and actively communicate with those who were learning to do so, which was probably the best way to pass the time of boredom. However, some civilizations also began to spread through the exchange of Koreans, such as tea, silk, and muskets, as well as optical telescopes brought by glass, and many things about the Koreans attracted the attention of Seth scholars, although they thought that their language was more complex, but their mastery of science and technology was amazing. So both sides are communicating closely.

Sabbath country. On the outskirts of a small desolate town, the Sabbatarians here were in a hurry, because there were Sabbath cavalry stationed here, and there were some Qin people there, who were busy checking their lines every day. Or report something, they don't know what these Qin people do, but they know that these Qin people can do witchcraft. They can quickly spread what you say to thousands of miles away. As long as it makes a ticking sound, it can quickly spread to far, far away.

This is a telegraph station in Qin, and the cables need to be laid further, because they are buried in the ground, the amount of work may be relatively large, fortunately, there is no shortage of local labor, but their cables are not very much, and Qin sent out more cables, and they are teaching the local telegraph operators to learn, but unfortunately the language barrier hinders the possibility of rapid learning. They can only teach little by little, and then boredly tell the situation here in China, which seems to be very interested in these contents. However, today the telegraph station accidentally got a shocking news, that is, the attack of the Sabbatarians seems to be going a little badly, they are in big trouble somewhere, and they need more ammunition replenishment, this news, although not very detailed, is enough to shock people, and the telegraph station has decided to send such a message to the Qin State, which may be very useful for the country.

Inside Meng Tian's office. Meng Tian, who was in charge of the affairs of the Western Regions, always got not much news, and the influence of the main Qin State was not very deep.

"The Yueshi people can only break the current situation by choosing a new place to attack. The Indians are not stupid either, and they know that the Yueshi will cause them great damage once they enter their depths. Meng Tian said to an officer.

"However, the initiative is in the hands of the Yue people. If the Yueshi want to choose where to break the gap, they can break the gap, and in this regard, the Indians can only defend passively, otherwise, they will not be able to solve such a problem at all. Meng Tian said.

"Well, in this matter, I think, the Yue Clan Command will have its own considerations. Today, though, we have a strange telegram from the Land of Sabbath. The telegram only said that the attack of the Sabbatarians was not going very well, but it did not specify where it did not go well, and we do not know anything about the details. This telegram can only know such things. The officer said.

"Oh." Meng Tian took the telegram as he spoke, because the telegram station really didn't get much news, so there was very little they could do.

"It means a lot to us to know more about this matter." Meng Tian said. He was keenly aware that things might exceed Qin Guo's expectations, but what he didn't expect was that the State of Rest would encounter a defeat in the war, but unfortunately Qin Guo knew too little. A lot of the content happens without knowing it. Wait until you know. It was a long time too late to react, which made Qin Guo very passive. He felt that the Qin State should improve in this regard. Or radio can help them solve such a problem.

Qinguo, Xianyang, Xianyang Communication Company.

"This is a new technology, we don't need too many cables, we can achieve the purpose of communication, I think, as you know, radio technology has always been a secret technology of the military, but recently, this technology has been transferred to civilian use, and the technology patent operation is used in civilian use." A radio engineer said, waving his arm. He is the owner of the patent for radio technology, but unfortunately, radio did not bring him much income from technology patents, because this technology has always been under the control of the Qin military, and the military has rarely used radio technology. It had a huge impact on his income, but he didn't give up.

After experiments by the expeditionary forces, the radio has proven to be reliable. The rest is simpler. It was to promote the technology, which required the support of some telecommunications companies, so he decided to look for such an investment partner.

"We already know about the expeditionary force. Radio does play a big role, but, at the moment, we're worried that he's not stable enough, you know, a lot of towers, it costs a lot of money. And it's a new technology, we're worried, it's not stable enough, and if there's a wide range of technical applause, I'm worried. The manager shook his head. For new technology, he does have a great interest, however, some technology can bring profits, some technology can also bring disaster, if a wide range of investment, if there are technical difficulties, or risks, then, it will bring great disaster, in the face of such a disaster, the company may be difficult to operate, in the face of investment, some communication companies may put funds in a more secure place, for example, on the cable, although the technology of cable investment is very large, it requires a lot of money, but he is reliable, To ensure the integrity of communication, the radio relies on invisible wireless telegraphy, and who knows if this thing will not be able to transmit due to some obstacle, which is what worries them the most. So, they decided to go with the technology in a safe way, and after it was perfected, they decided to invest.

"This. It's a great technology, and I can guarantee that, you know, we've tried it hundreds of times. And there are no mistakes on the part of the military. They felt that the technology was completely free of any loopholes. The engineer said sternly. He was very annoyed when he saw that the other party doubted his own technology, but the annoyance was of no use at all, the other party did not change their attitude at all, and they still doubted the reliability of this technology.

"Okay, so full, I think you're too conservative. You will pay the price for your conservatism. The engineer left in annoyance, the manager shrugged his shoulders helplessly, as if he had expected such a thing to happen, every day they would encounter new technology, some engineers claimed that they could let the light help them spread the word, but they received nothing news, this could be a scammer, if they invest rashly, it may bring great losses, now what they have to do is to avoid such losses.

Zhao Guo, Handan. The poor workers were somewhat indignant.

"Damn, those rich aristocrats, a bottle of wine they drink can help our children build a good school, and the cost of their maintenance of women, a bottle of perfume, can make all children have textbooks, but these blood-drinking guys don't even give us any money." A worker scolded as he looked at the newspaper in his hand.

"This is also a matter of no choice, who let the factory be run by others, unless you don't want to work, otherwise, it's better not to do such a thing." Another worker said. The newspaper reported on Li Mu's impeachment, the members of the House of Commons are relatively neutral, after all, many of them are still involved in the buying and selling of consumer goods, they are the actual operators, if they are taxed, their business burden is relatively large, many factory owners do not care about this, because they do not get actual benefits, for example, the cost of apprenticeship is relatively low, but the application of knowledge is relatively small, and most of them are still obtained from technical cooperation with the Qin people. And on the other hand. If consumption is restricted, the products they produce have nothing to do with it, after all, their products are some cheap products, the profits are already very low, and they are not very related, in this case, the lower house of Zhao represented by businessmen, small and medium-sized factory owners basically maintained neutrality, and the upper house because of the relatively large consumption, they have a large number of mineral resources and factories. Therefore, they were extremely opposed to Li Mu's taxation. However, they impeached the other party and stepped down on the grounds that Li Mu was indiscriminately taxed.

However, the broad working class was extremely opposed, but their opposition was not reciprocated. Because this has a lot to do with their vital interests, many of them have children studying in the school, but their educational resources are very scarce, which directly leads to their learning is not very high, or that their learning resources have not been able to get them out of the current predicament, they hope to get better learning resources, Li Mu's purpose is to do this for them, so the working class is to support Li Mu, but such support cannot avoid impeachment.

Inside the Prime Minister's Mansion. Li Zuoche was very anxious, and when he saw the impeachment sent by the House of Lords, he felt that he had a headache, but Li Mu was not nervous at all.

"Hehe, don't have a headache. This matter, what should be done, should be done, and Zhao Guo's resources cannot be wasted on this. Li Mu said solemnly. And then he left. Today he is going to parliament to face the accusations of the parliamentarians.

"Hey." Li Zuoche was very annoyed, but he was very helpless, because it was the parliament, the national parliament, that controlled and restricted the power of the prime minister.

Sinjeong, South Korea.

Han Shu just shook her head after reading the matter about Li Mu's impeachment.

"Li Mu's idea is not wrong, if you don't open the people's wisdom, the development of Zhao has no future, you know, Zhao has a lot of technology industries, these technical departments need a large number of technical personnel to innovate, if there are not so many technical personnel, Zhao Guo can not develop at all, can only rely on Qin's technical cooperation to solve all the problems? It is unlikely, how could the Qin State solve their own technical problems, so in the end, they have to rely on the wisdom of the people to solve it. Han Shu said.

But what does it take to turn on people's intelligence? What is needed is education, and in this regard, Zhao Guo has obviously invested disproportionately in this area. In contrast, those Zhao nobles have a lot of resource advantages, and they can earn a lot of money every day, but the result is that they are not willing to invest in education at all. This is a short-sighted, a stupid idea. Han Shu commented.

"However, the king, the minister thinks. Li Mu's idea is correct, but the method of doing it is not flexible enough, not wise enough, or in politics, there is no flexibility at all, which makes him fall into passivity, perhaps Li Mu's idea is a little anxious. Zhang Liang on the side said after hearing it.

"Oh." Han Shu was very curious when she heard this. She looked at Zhang Liang and motioned for the other party to continue.

"If you can induce these nobles to donate, for example, to gain fame, to remain in the legislature, or to threaten to dissolve the parliament, then those councillors will have to donate for the sake of their own fame, perhaps in the form of publicity orders. Through policy support. to guide donations, and Li Mu forcibly collected taxes like this. It will be aimed at all people, and donations, can take dividing measures, although Zhao's domestic politics are not very good, but the use of this way can be greatly improved, if Li Mu's move is not good enough, it may cause huge political fluctuations, and then affect the domestic situation of Zhao. Once the situation becomes turbulent, I am afraid of the situation. Zhang Liang shook his head and said.

"Hmm. It seems that Li Mu is okay to fight, this political struggle. I think he'd better forget it. Thinking of this, Han Shu felt that what Zhang Liang said was very reasonable, and in the face of such a situation, Zhang Liang's analysis was very correct. Li Mu was indeed in an unfavorable situation in the political struggle, and he had very little experience in the struggle.
