However, this time the Zhao market fell violently, and the lesson was left to the Zhao government, and the Koreans learned the experience of the Zhao people in advance, while the Qin people made a lot of money violently, and they had concentrated a lot of funds, and this decline brought them great buying value, which allowed them to buy a large number of stocks. At one point, the market allowed them to buy all the liquid shares. This allowed the Qin people to make the most money.

However, Zhao Guoren wishfully believed that the decline was caused by the Koreans, and they did not have many complaints about the Qin people. Things are sometimes so strange, originally the most and worst were the Qin people, but as a result, the Qin people didn't do anything. On the contrary, Koreans become a kind of value for each other.

Yan Kingdom, the prince's mansion.

"Oh my God, fortunately Zhao Guoren refused. Otherwise, we will lose half of our assets. Prince Dan said in horror. Seeing that Zhao's stock market had fallen by half, he felt a chill in his back, and this coldness made him feel that the refusal of the Zhao government was too wise.

"It's just that we don't have the funds." The Minister of Finance said worriedly.

"We can solve the problem of money in other ways, but we can't solve this problem through the stock market. Such a solution is really too scary, and it is better for us to avoid such things in the future. Prince Dan emphasized.

"Yes." The Minister of Finance nodded helplessly.

Inside Meng Tian's office.

"Are the Yue's people still building roads?" Meng Tian asked Bai Hua. Bai Hua, as a liaison officer, kept communicating between the Yue clan and the people of the Qin State.

"Yes, they've put a lot of manpower into it, it's just, I don't know how their labor is working out, but, I guess, they're most likely from Indians." Bai Hua said.

"Their only advantage at the moment is that they can get a lot of labor from Indy, which is enough for them to build a lot of road routes, but we don't know how many problems such roads can solve." Meng Tian said.

"Sir, I think they can solve the road problem and pay attention to that, and I think it shows that they are very serious about this kind of problem. Are we, on the basis of these roads, give certain support, for example, cement, or asphalt, so that their roads become like us, fast and efficient transportation, and then on the basis of the land, carry out other operations, and finally build railways. Bai Hua suggested. Many front-line officers have come to realize that this military problem is actually an economic construction problem, and the economic construction problem is actually a road and railway construction problem, because the construction period is extremely huge and the amount of work is extremely huge, and the first thing they have to pass through is the mountainous area, and if there is not sufficient financial support, it will be very difficult to open up such a channel. This would require a large amount of financial resources from the Qin State to achieve such a purpose.

But the current Qin government is unable to support such a project, and although the prospects for commercial investment are promising, the funds cannot be pooled, because it requires a lot of money, and no company can gather such a huge amount of money to do such a thing, and as a result, they have to give up.

"Well, the government is very clear about this, and we can count on supporting them. After all, such a thing is still very beneficial for them. Meng Tian reluctantly agreed.

"Yes, sir. However, I think we should change our business strategy and preferably build locally, so that we can save on transportation costs. The other is to be able to meet the needs of local construction. In addition, it can attract investment, and in the future, it will also be of great help to the construction of railways. Bai Hua said.

"Hmm. OK. I'll report on the above, things that attract investment, and I'm going to do it now. Meng Tian said to Bai Hua.

on the Yueshi Highway.

The Yueshi Highway as a whole is divided into ten sections, which is conducive to the completion of the construction of the Yueshi Highway as soon as possible. On every stretch of the road, there were tens of thousands of camp slaves working, in order to speed up the project, they worked day and night, and the Yue soldiers in custody were miserable, but compared to those Indians, their situation was quite good.

The life of those Indians is extremely miserable, they can't eat enough every day, because the logistics supply is limited, the supply is ammunition, the Yueshi people have to fight a bigger war in the south, and the food source of the country is mainly provided by the Qin people, so the Qin people have a limited supply of ammunition, and food is secondary. Therefore, it is unlikely that much food was given to those slaves. Even the transport of large quantities of booty from the south, the abundance of rice, was also carried out as a reserve, so that the hungry Indians faced hunger first. A large number of Indians were starved to death, and then they were exhausted to death because of the enormous amount of work. Some need to open a whole mountain, and digging tunnels is the best way.

Some of the Indians who were starved to death and died of exhaustion were buried directly under the road. Others were left on the side of the road to be devoured by the wolves. On both sides of the road, there are often large numbers of wild wolves who have come to regard the Indians as their main source of food, which is their best welfare. Because such people appear every day.

Yueshi Highway, this is a road of blood and tears. And it's a highway made entirely of corpses.

Yue's Southern Defense Line. The retreating Yueshi army built a temporary defensive line here.

The material resources transported by the Qin State continued to arrive here, but this was not enough, it would take them longer to solve the problem if they were to launch an attack. Because their ammunition supply is not very sufficient. Especially the shells of the cannons, to complete an attack, they need a lot of shells.

"Hurry up. Don't be too slow. Lieutenant Officer Yue, Zhao Fang shouted loudly. More and more of the Yue's army received Qin education, and the official language became Qin dialect, and as long as they knew Qin dialect, they could become officers. and grassroots officials. They can receive more resources. Zhao Fang is such a person, because he understands the Qin dialect, so he became an officer.

His troops were guerrilla, harassing in nature, numbering no more than a hundred, but they were all fast-moving cavalry units.

Zhao Fang rode on a horse, and there were two horses behind him, which was a symbol of their high-speed maneuver, and on Zhao Fang's body, there were five flintlock pistols, which were their combat weapons, and there was a flintlock rifle in the back, which was their only long-range killing weapon, in addition, there were two or three grenades, which were their biggest explosive weapons, which could often be used at the most critical time, and after use, the ammunition supply situation might not be able to replenish them in time, therefore, grenades were extremely important.

And behind them, there are nearly two hundred Indian soldiers, these are all servant armies, on the southern defense line, there are too many Indian nobles who have taken refuge in them, they can't become slaves, although at first they can do this, but now they need to go south, they also need the help of these camp nobles, and harassment also needs a lot of guides, therefore, these Indians become their servant army, but they are more in the role of infantry, when fighting, they have to rush to the front line, become artillery fire.

Their equipment will also be improved, for example, one in every four of them will have a musket, which is a very high percentage.

"Brother Zhao is back. It's a big takeaway. Kerner said with a smile.

"It's really big, we swept through the surrounding Indian tribes, these Indian guides helped us a lot, they were very important to us, we captured more than 1,700 slaves." Zhao Fang reported excitedly.

"Hmm. Not a lot. The previous captain officer had only captured more than 700 people, but there were many women, and there were more than 300 people. There were more than a hundred women in the camp. You've got it to play. Kerner said with a smile. Quesa is a Yueshi person, but he did not change his name, the Yueshi government only encouraged him to change his name, and did not force it, many descendants of Yue's nobles did not change their names, Ke is such a person, he thinks, Yue's people should have Yue's name, of course. Some people have two names, one is from the Qin family and the other is from the Yue family, Zhao Fang is very special, because he was a slave before, he can only use the name of the Qin people, because if he uses the name of the Yue family, he will not be able to raise his head.

"Well, that's good. With these slaves, I could have been promoted. Zhao Fang said with a smile.

"Hmm. But you get to the General Staff, where you need to gather a lot of intelligence, that is, you need to make a report. Otherwise, your promotion may become a problem because the report is not comprehensive. Kerner said. He is just a logistics officer, and many of the second generation of the nobles of the Yue clan are reluctant to fight, but they have to join the army, and if they join the army, they have to become logistics officers, because only here they don't have to go to the front line, they can control the distribution of a large number of logistics supplies, which is very beneficial to them.

"Well, that's good, I'll sort out the troops, and I'll be over right away, you don't have to worry." Zhao Fang said. Then he waved his arms to rest his men, and escorted the good Indian prisoners of war, and then he began to sort out his notes, which were their battle records, through which he was to report what he had seen and heard, although they were mixed with the Qin and Yueshi characters, but such reports were extremely primitive.
