914 Strategic Security Conference
"Sir, what are we going to do?" The second lieutenant on the side asked.
"We don't have any commanders to unify our command." The lieutenant felt that the problem was serious.
"We're in a bad situation right now." The lieutenant said.
"Not far ahead, I entered Yandu. And there are two lines of defense of the Qi army behind us, and it is difficult for us to go back. The lieutenant analyzed.
"We immediately launched an attack on the city. and the Allies there. The lieutenant said at this time.
"And what about the people in the back?" The second lieutenant asked at this time.
"Send someone to contact, will anyone go?" The lieutenant asked.
The second lieutenant pouted at this time. Obviously, no one wants to leave here and go to some very dangerous place.
"Okay. Bring a little more ammo and throw everything else away. We need to join the Allies as soon as possible. The lieutenant calmly gave the order at this time.
"Whoa." The Yan soldiers heard the order. Consciously throw away their backpacks. Carry only ammunition pouches. Then check your own armament.
"Alright. Come with me. "The lieutenant took the lead in the attack at this time.
And in terms of tank armored combat vehicles. There was a serious disagreement among the commanders of the Yan army. Part thought that it should be retreated. Others believe that they should continue to hold on to the positions they have already occupied and complete the tasks they are supposed to accomplish.
"What about those tanks?" An ensign asked, pointing to the tanks and armored fighting vehicles that were no longer moving.
"Let them decide for themselves. Either abandon their chariots, or destroy them along with them. A lieutenant of the Yan Army said mercilessly.
And the second lieutenant turned his head at this time to look at the armored combat vehicle in the distance. These chariots appeared on the battlefield for the first time, and their fate was destroyed.
"Whew." The sound of artillery shelling was heard. A shell bounced next to an armored combat vehicle. The shells did not kill anyone. These run away are specifically aimed at tanks and armored fighting vehicles.
A new weapon always has to go through a lot of trials and doubts before it can be accepted by the world. The emergence of tank armored combat vehicles, for Shang Wen, this is already a weapon beyond the times, the automobile industry of the Qin State has just emerged, and such a weapon is already a masterpiece that can be achieved by science and technology now.
The ensuing battle was left unrecorded. The fate of the Yan soldiers has also been passed down by a very small number of surviving participants. Under the sharp offensive of the Qi army, the Yan army did not resist for much time before it was beaten and scattered.
In short, this offensive operation. Most of the more than 300 people of the Yan army were annihilated. Only a very small number of people have survived. The first battle of the prince's army of the Yan Kingdom ended in a tragic end. But the battle is still ongoing.
However, Shang Wen could not care about the significance of Yan's military aid operation for the time being, and he was learning about the current situation of Qin through telegrams. These situations are likely to affect the future trend of the Qin state. If these things are not handled well, Shang Wen will not be able to continue to serve as prime minister.
"Qin's domestic economic data has increased from the previous month, which is more in line with my expectations." Shangwen said the East Coast.
"There's still a few things to keep you busy, though." Yingyu helps Shangwen with some documents. Shangwen still has this serious problem in the understanding of some fonts. These problems made it difficult for him to justify that font. Although the Qin State began to simplify some fonts to facilitate the printing of characters, even so, there were still a large number of fonts that Shang Wen could not recognize that needed to be explained by Yingyu. Moreover, in terms of vernacular interpretation, Shang Wen still can't understand some ancient official words. And Yingyu is good at this. Naturally, he temporarily acted as Shang Wen's secretary.
"This is an urgent telegram from the northern frontier of the Qin State. The telegram said. A large-scale slave revolt broke out in the north. The reasons are not very detailed for the time being. But the riots have affected our country's meat supply. Yingyu said.
"Riot?" Shang Wen asked in surprise.
"Yes. Insurrection. We have only a few hundred thousand people in the north, and the number of slaves exceeds a million. It's hard for our people to control the entire ranch. Now those damned slaves are burning down the haystacks on our pastures, killing our Qin people, and cutting down our cattle and sheep in large numbers. Destroy everything we've built. Yingyu said fiercely.
"My father's battalion sent the 3rd Infantry Division for urgent reinforcements. Judging by the recent battle reports, it seems that we have won a huge victory. Yingyu said.
"The commander of the 3rd Infantry Division, Tu Sui, wiped out more than 100,000 slaves overnight. Within a radius of 100 miles. Slaves no longer dare to be arrogant. Yingyu said.
"Oh my God. 100,000 people, and in just one night, he killed the dead. Shang Wen muttered to himself.
"Alright. Don't mess with your kindness. Yingyu said.
"This heroic act. My father also specially awarded General Tu with a medal. Yingyu said.
"Got it." Shang Wen shrugged helplessly.
"Other directions. It's all sporadic fighting. Our borders have never been settled, and there are wars big and small every day. Yingyu said.
"Can the topic of war end here?" Shang Wen said.
"War, this issue, has occupied all the front pages of our Qin country. What's more, as soon as we come to talk about things in the Qin State, it starts with the war. Didn't you read the newspaper? Shang Wen said.
"What newspaper?" Yingyu asked.
"Newspapers in South Korea. They ridiculed us Qin people, and our Qin people's opening remarks of the day were like this. Shang Wen said lightly.
"Hey, yesterday there was a good war in a certain place. We, the people of Qin, have won again. Shang Wen said.
"That's what the Koreans say." After Yingyu heard it, she said disdainfully.
"They Koreans only have to be beaten." Yingyu said disdainfully.
"Wrong. A note of the recent situation. There has been a new change in South Korea. Shang Wen handed the telegram to Yingyu at this time.
"Look at this, Korea has occupied the land of Wei Chen. They were only less than thirty-five miles away from the capital of Wei. Any idea what that means? Shang Wen said.
"This distance. If they use super cannons, they can directly use artillery to attack the capital of Wei. Shang Wen said.
A new type of cannon was being developed in the Qin state. It was at this time that the super cannon was proposed, which was capable of hitting more than forty miles. Although the power of the shells was limited. In order to make the shells fly farther. The warhead is made a little lighter.
"We can't see such a country flourishing next to our Qin State." Yingyu reminded Shang Wen at this time.
Shang Wen was not worried about this at all.
"Isn't the rise of South Korea bad? We can have one more friend. And South Korea still has a lot of problems, and if these problems are not solved, they will rise quickly and decline quickly. Shang Wen said.
"I read a book that says. The strength of a country is closely related to the country's politics. Shang Wen said. Although he didn't remember the title of the book, he did say that the content was a little off.
"I don't know about that. I don't want to know either. All I know is. If South Korea continues like this, it will definitely threaten Qin's current position. Yingyu warned Shang Wendao.
"South Korea's rise is not necessarily a bad thing. At the very least, the Qin State has a goal of struggle and progress. If we were to rely solely on our development, I think our speed would have been reduced by more than 50 years. Shang Wen said.
"But the Qin State has not been unified so far." Yingyu said that the problem is fundamental.
"In my opinion, the unification of the Qin state is far from territorial unity. We are like the structure of the human body, we just unify the parts of the body. The flesh inside. We're not unified at all. It takes time to settle. Shang Wen said according to his own understanding.
"The blood of our flesh needs to be intertwined with each other and become one, so as to become a true whole, even if the Qin State unifies the world, because there is no such unified physical foundation, it will lead to the final split." Shang Wen said.
But Yingyu stared at Shang Wen at this time and didn't say anything.
"What are you looking at me for?" Shang Wen suddenly realized that Yingyu was looking at him.
"Sometimes. I don't know if you're really stupid or fake. In some questions, your understanding, thoughts. I don't always understand. Yingyu looked at Shang Wen and said.
"Really?" Shang Wen said with a smile.
"Alright. Let's see if there are other things? Shang Wen changed the topic at this time and said.
"Yes. This one. Yingyu handed Shang Wen a long telegram.
"My father's ministers and your cabinet have convened a high-level strategic security meeting." Yingyu stared at Shang Wen and said.
"What? Strategic Security Meeting. Shang Wen asked.
"Yes, the Strategic Security Conference. Discuss the current strategic situation of the Qin state. Judging by this long telegram. It seems that the results are not very promising. Yingyu said.
As he spoke, Shang Wen took the telegram and began to browse it.
Shang Wen gasped halfway through the telegram. The content of the meeting has greatly exceeded the scope of Shang Wen's own understanding.
Originally. The slave rebellion that broke out in the north of the Qin State caused panic, especially the market reaction, which was particularly sensitive. This caught the attention of King Qin. He believed that the current state of Qin could not lay a stable foundation for the future unification of Qin.
Although Qin already has a solid strength in terms of materials, he believes that Qin must have various security risks, such as Qin's northern rebellion. If the forces were to attack eastward, then the Qin state would not be able to mobilize enough reserves to move north. Carry out repression. Then it will inevitably cause the emptiness of the entire core area of Guanzhong. This is a major mistake in strategic security. Not only the north of Qin, but also the northwest, as well as the south. These circumstances made Qin Guo feel a trace of insecurity.
