"It seems that the attack of the Chu army is very weak. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis morning, the Chu army launched a total of three attacks, but the largest attack was only two troops, and there was no artillery support, relying only on infantry, it was obviously impossible. Zhang Yi said to Xue Gui.

"We got news from the sharpshooter company that the large army of the Chu army was nailed to the spot. They couldn't move, and if they didn't move forward, the casualties would still be heavy. At least they were able to get out of here, but they didn't do anything, and if they went on like this, they could only be beaten passively. And the Chu army in other places, because of the scattered defense, they could not gather, and they launched an attack in twos and threes, and the threat to us was not very great. Xue Gui said.

"Hmm. The commander is right, this morning's attack is like this, we see that the attack of the Chu army is very weak, we only need to shoot a little, we can crush an attack, but we still let them in a large number of people, concentrate a firepower, they can completely collapse. Zhang Yi said.

"Hmm. Don't waste ammo anymore. If there are too many such attacks, we will still not be able to withstand the opponent's attacks. Xue Gui said.

"Sir. Haven't our logistical supplies come yet? Zhang Yi asked worriedly.

"Yes. It has not yet come, the original plan, we should be able to get logistical supplies from the sea, at least the ammunition supply can be sufficient for us, but, now it seems. We still have too many surprises. Xue Gui said worriedly. After all, if the logistical supply cannot be delivered in time, it will greatly affect their combat effectiveness.

"Sir, in fact, we can hold on for a while longer, after all, we found the Chu army's logistics supply warehouse in Jimo City, which has a large amount of ammunition, and the amount of gunpowder is also very large, as long as we make full use of this, we can still complete the task." Zhang Yi comforted his superior.

"Hmm. Perhaps. Xue Gui nodded.

"Actually, I'm worried, too. If there is no logistical supply, especially if there is no follow-up troops, the Chu army will quickly move south, after all, we only have 3,000 people, and if there is no sea support, the impact on us is too great. Xue Gui said worriedly.

"Hmm." Zhang Yi nodded.

"Sir. In my opinion, we just occupied Jimo City, and if we can't win in an unexpected place on the battlefield, it doesn't mean much. We occupied Jimo City this time, and we actually came for the navy. The Navy has a port, but it also needs a railway. Who owns the railway, and who will do it, are some of the questions. Zhang Yi said.

"Our main trade competition object is the coastal area of Qi country, the coastal area trade of Qi country has increased a lot, I heard that Qi people are also actively building a railway directly to the coastal area, if we can directly build a railway directly to Jimo City, I think, we will surpass the coastal area. After all, there are no railways in the Primorsky area. In this way, Jimo City can take the initiative in the future development. Zhang Yi suggested.

"Hmm. I see you, you can retire after this battle. Xue Gui nodded and said directly to Zhang Yi.

"Why?" Zhang Yi asked in surprise.

"I think you think there are a lot of government affairs you think, and you don't even think about military affairs. In that case, you should simply go into politics. Xue Gui said to Zhang Yi.

"Huh." Zhang Yi wiped his head and laughed. And Xue Gui smiled and patted Zhang Yi's shoulder.

"South Korea needs this kind of talent, but there are a lot of problems to solve, as long as you are not afraid of problems, I think, the problems should be solved." Xue Gui said to Zhang Yi.

"Yes, sir." Zhang Yi replied with a smile.

Sinzheng, South Korea. In the hall of the Chu Chamber of Commerce. Fan Zeng, who had resigned from the Qin State, sat in the hall eating his meal. The meals of the Qin State were simple and coarse. Although there are a lot of new things to fill in. But Fan Zeng still couldn't get used to it. The Qin State had a lot of meat in its meals, and there were also many pastries and pasta made from wheat. At the same time, the demand for sweetness has also increased in middle and high-level things, such as the demand for sweetness in the fast drinks of Qin, which is also the main reason for the increase in the demand for white sugar in Qin. Under the influence of the Qin State, the Western Regions also had a great demand for white sugar. Although there are many styles of food in the Qin State, most of them are relatively simple types, and the dishes in the Chu State have a wide variety of styles and are much more delicate to make, which are not found in the food of the Qin State. After Fan Zeng resigned from Qin, he decided to go to all parts of the world to see, he had just taken a train from Guanzhong to Xinzheng, South Korea, and planned to visit South Korea.

Fan Zeng was disgusted with the food of the Qin State, and although the restaurants of the Chu State could be found in the Qin State Pass, the dishes of the Chu State had already undergone great changes to cater to the tastes of the Qin State. For example, the dishes of the Chu State need to be exquisite, and it will inevitably take a long time to be exquisite. However, the pace of life of the people of Qin has accelerated a lot, and what people need for meals is a simple and fast style, and the delicacy of Chu cannot adapt to Qin, so a lot of simplification has been done, and this simplification has brought a serious reduction in taste, and the shrinkage is very serious. It can hardly be called the delicacy of the Chu State. For such a simplified Chu meal, Fan Zeng thinks that this is not a Chu meal. Now what Fan Zeng is looking for is the original taste of the food of Chu State.

"Isn't this Mr. Fan?" Just as Fan Zeng was about to feast, a businessman from the Chu State said to Fan Zeng with a smile.

"Oh. You are? Fan Zeng looked at the other party suspiciously.

"Oh. We just admired Mr. Fan's name for a long time. The merchant laughed.

"Just." Fan Zeng looked at the other party vigilantly.

"Oh. Forgot to introduce. Below is Huang Pin, a merchant of the Chu State. Huang Pin introduced.

"Oh." Fan Zeng just nodded.

"It's just that I don't know you below." Fan Zeng looked at the other party and said. For such a person, Fan Zeng thinks that there is not much dealing. It's okay to refuse outright.

"Oh, but I recognize Mr. as the Secretary of State of Qin." Huang Pin said.

"Oh. Lao Yu is no longer the secretary of state of Qin. Now I have resigned. Fan Zeng shook his head and said.

"This." Huang Pin was a little speechless in surprise.

"It's just that Mr. Huang interrupted my meal." Fan Zeng said unceremoniously at this time. For such a person, Fan Zeng really didn't want to know, after all, Fan Zeng was not willing to say anything about the secretary of state of Qin, and the people of Qin were unwilling to use his talents, so he naturally did not want to be his secretary of state.

"Oh. That's right. Huang Pin just smiled. And then nothing more. Then Huang Pin left with interest. Then I went to find someone. Fan Zeng continued to enjoy his fineness.

A small conference room at Sinzheng Korean University.

"The purpose of the Zhao State is very simple, that is, to establish their own colony in the northern Liaobei region, and I think this kind of thing is normal. After all, if you want to open up a colony, you need to pass through Yan and your Liaodong. Zhao Guo is involved, I think it's normal. Shang Wen introduced Prince Dan. And Li Mu sat on the side and clasped his hands. He looked at Prince Dan's facial expression.

"The colony of the Zhao State will bring a lot of investment to our Qin State, and such an investment will be very useful for the commercial development of the Qin State, so we hope that the Yan State side can be of great help, after all, if you enter Liaobei from our Qin State, you need to pass through the damn mountainous area. Most of these mountainous areas were not under the control of the Qin state. Shang Wen explained.

"However, in this case, it will be a very big threat to our Yan Kingdom Liaodong." Prince Dan said worriedly.

"Oh. No, their establishment of colonies is to develop the market, which will be very beneficial to the Yan State, and the great threat to the Liaodong of the Yan State is Goguryeo, and this issue is where we should pay attention to it. If Yan Guo can agree to this question, I think the three of us can sit together and solve the problem of Goguryeo, after all, the problem of Goguryeo is what we are most worried about. Shangwen pointed out that the harassment of the Goguryeo tribes in the Liaodong of the Yan State was the key.

"This question shouldn't have anything to do with the colony of Liaobei, right?" Prince Dan has not yet received any benefits from the Qin State, and he believes that if a large number of colonies are established in the area north of Liaodong in the Yan State, the colonies will definitely have a large number of garrisons, and these garrisons will pose a deadly threat to them, which is the most painful place for Prince Dan, and it is also difficult to accept.

"This is inevitably related to the economy of Yan, if Zhao establishes a colony in Liaobei, it will take all kinds of military measures against Liaobei, as well as military measures. Trade measures, these measures can bring great stimulation to the economy of Yanguo, for example, the military, the need for logistical supplies, and the demand for railways, which can bring about the development of Yan's economy. Shang Wen explained.

"In addition, there is trade, there are many ethnic minorities in northern Liao, after stabilizing, the only way is to start trade, this trade will bring huge profits, Yan is very vulnerable to the impact, a lot of mountain goods, raw materials, etc., these are very beneficial to Yan country. Not only that, but after Yanguo's economic development reaches a certain level, I think Yanguo can also solve this problem by itself. For example, it is possible for the Yan State to establish its own colonies, or to directly establish a vast colony on the Korean Peninsula, which is the enemy of the enemy. Shang Wen said with a smile. Whether or not it can support Zhao to establish its own colony in the northern Liaobei region can only depend on the attitude of Yan. And how to change Yan Guo's attitude, the only way is to lure.

And Li Mu on the side just looked at Prince Dan, he hoped that Prince Dan could make a clear choice, for the establishment of a colony in northern Liao, Li Mu found Shang Wen yesterday, and explained in detail the attitude of Zhao in northern Liao, for the development of the northeast, Shang Wen has not been able to find a suitable reason, the development of Qin also lacks sufficient reasons, although Yan has great significance in developing Liaobei, but Yan is unable to do so, at this time, a country is needed to take the initiative to guide Yan to do this. And Zhao State just played such a role, and the active development of colonies can bring a large market, the more this market, the more beneficial it is for Qin. Therefore, Shang Wen clearly expressed the capital support of the Qin State, and was willing to persuade the Yan State to open his Liaodong Passage.

"How did our Yan solve the problem of Goguryeo, my military generals told me that the Liaodong border of Yan could not be defended, and there was a lack of sufficient defensive troops. This problem is too difficult for us in Yan Kingdom. I wonder if Qin and Zhao will be able to solve this problem? Prince Dan said at this time.

At this time, Li Mu looked at Shang Wen, and Shang Wen nodded.

"I think it can be solved, however, the states of Qin and Zhao need to get certain preferences on other issues. For example, on the issue of railways. Shang Wen said to Prince Dan at this time.

"The State of Qin and the State of Zhao can contribute funds and send troops to solve this problem, and this problem is easy to solve, and the problem is not very big." Shang Wen said to Prince Dan at this time. And Li Mu still has some worries, he is worried that Shang Wen's request to send troops will seriously affect the financial expenditure of Zhao State, after all, he can't drag himself into the war on the Korean Peninsula just because he promised Yan State, this is not Li Mu's original intention.

"It's just, how can Qin and Zhao solve this problem? I'd like to hear your specific opinions. Prince Dan asked.

"Well, you don't need to be specific. But we absolutely guaranteed that we would be able to force Goguryeo to not attack the kingdom of Yan. At the same time, Yan Guo can get out of the Korean War, if Yan Guo can make major concessions on the railway project, of course, we will not let Yan Guo suffer too much, otherwise, Yan Guo will not be able to calm down, and everyone will not be able to do business in the future. Shang Wen said.

"In my opinion, the main problem of Yan is not the border problem of Yan State, but the economy of Yan State, Yan State economy is in a state of withering, Yan State has many economic drawbacks, if it is not innovated, I think it will be difficult for Yan State to get out of such a predicament." Shang Wen said.

"Therefore, I think that under the guidance of Zhao and Qin, Yan can solve its own national ills, which will be of great benefit to the development of Yan State." Shang Wen said.

"Railway, the colony is an important guiding role, the railway can bring jobs, which can bring a lot of employment opportunities to the people of Yan, at the same time, can also solve the food dilemma of Yan, can bring a lot of taxes, not only these, if Yan reduces tariffs, maintain an equal and favorable tax environment, I think Yan's economy will develop rapidly, there are colonies of Zhao in northern Liao, all kinds of goods into Yan, wait until Yan develops, It is also possible to fully develop the Goguryeo people on the Korean Peninsula as their own colony and become a market for Yan goods. Shang Wen said.

"Yan can also develop its own colonies, the vast arctic of Liao, Yan can expand its territory, expand its territory, this is a great credit. This kind of credit can be written in history. Shang Wen said to Prince Dan with a smile.

Hearing this, Prince Dan's heart suddenly opened a lot, and he felt that what Shang Wen said was right, if he expanded his territory, it would be a great credit. This kind of credit is enough for him to be written in history. Leave your name.

"Then thank you Prime Minister and General Li." Prince Dan was a little fluttering, he knew that he still needed the help of Qin and Zhao at this time, so he used gratitude to express his acceptance of Qin and Zhao's plan. Under Shang Wen's further persuasion, Prince Dan agreed to Shang Wen's request, and the specific representatives of the three parties negotiated further, so that the problems of Yan State were solved a lot, and the Liaobei colony of Zhao State was solved.

"Prime Minister, please stay." Li Mu stopped Shang Wen when he came out.

"Oh. Is there anything else going on with General Lee? At this time, Shang Wen turned around and asked.

"Oh. That's the case, on the issue of Yan sending troops, I'm worried that our Zhao State's finances can't support it, and I want to know what the prime minister thinks. Li Mu said worriedly. On this issue, Li Mu is very worried, Zhao followed Qin into the Korean War situation of Yan, Li Mu is very clear, the Korean Peninsula is mountainous, and the plain area is very suitable for occupation, but the other party will hide in the mountains, so that the war will naturally enter a stalemate, which is very unfavorable to Zhao, because Zhao's finances cannot support such a huge military expenditure, in the long run, Zhao will not be defeated, but dragged down alive, Li Mu is also worried, Shangwen does not understand the military, It was easy to get into such a predicament, and he came up with a good explanation for such a thing, after all, the Yan Kingdom was dragged down by Goguryeo like this.

"Hmm. It's a thing. Shang Wen said.

"My idea is the scenario provided by our General Staff and the Ministry of Defense." Shang Wen said to Li Mu.

"Our way, with one weapon you can solve this kind of problem, of course. A certain number of soldiers are also needed, but the number of soldiers can be greatly reduced. Shang Wen said.

"At the same time, it can also buy Yan Guo a lot of time." Shang Wen said to Li Mu.

"Oh. I don't know what kind of weapon has such power. At this time, Li Mu asked with interest.

"Landmines." Shang Wen replied with a smile.

"Landmines? Oh. Yes, this weapon can meet such defense requirements. Li Mu suddenly came to his senses.

"Yes. Landmines, not only that, I think that a lot of mine production in Qin can also be moved to Zhao, after all, Zhao has a lot of pig iron, these pig iron is a good weapon for making mines, and the cost will not be too much, in addition to some barbed wire, more pig iron can be done, we completely combine barbed wire and mines, in this way, we can intensively defend the Goguryeo people north. I know that it takes a lot of people to deploy such a large number of mines, but to do so would allow us to free up a lot of troops. Shang Wen said to Li Mu.

"However, as long as we are well trained and organized, I think such a task should be able to be completed, after all, these are all things that sappers do." Shang Wen said.

"I know that General Li is worried that we will be too involved in the affairs of Yan Kingdom, and I think such worries are unnecessary." Shang Wen said.

"Our goal is very clear, that is, to be able to cede the war between the Goguryeo Kingdom and achieve stability on the front, and then we can use other methods, such as opening up trade, to make contacts, so that we may be able to reach a ceasefire, after all, the Goguryeo people will choose this way when they can't go north." Shang Wen said.

"At that time, we will be able to do business with the Goguryeo people, and the Zhao State will have a large amount of pig iron, which can be sold to them. In exchange for more support from them. Shang Wen said.

"We will not get involved in the affairs of the Korean Peninsula, our goal is very clear, it is to end the war, and the purpose of the war is not to continue fighting, but to make peace, and to carry out more in the form of trade. The war potential of such ethnic minorities as Goguryeo was squeezed out by trade, and the war potential was slowly lost in trade. Shang Wen said at this time.

"Hmm. The prime minister's idea is really clever. At this time, Li Mu said.

"Thank you for the compliment, but I think Zhao Guo should not only introduce a simple arsenal, but also have more civilian factories. More incentives should be given to the introduction of funds. In this way, Zhao Guo can go further. Shang Wen said.

"Hmm. Thank you Prime Minister for the reminder. Li Mu said.

"I think Zhao Guo will also have his own investment in this regard." Shang Wen said.

"Zhao can produce a large number of rails, these rails are the advantages of Zhao, if Zhao wants to establish a larger colony, it is inseparable from the railway support of Yan, Qin can provide financial support, Yan can provide labor advantages, and Zhao can occupy a great advantage according to the raw materials he provides." Shang Wen said.

"Is the advantage of the railway that the prime minister said here?" Li Mu asked.

"Yes." Shang Wen nodded in acknowledgement.

"Only in this way can we make up for our losses in mines, you know, the price of mines is not cheap, if you lay mines, it will cost a lot, and the soldiers of Zhao State also need training, and at least a few thousand sappers are needed to concentrate such a large minefield layout. Probably more if it was actually needed. Therefore. We need to complement our needs in other ways. In this way, we can only make up for it from this place. Shang Wen said.

"Huh. It seems that doing business with the Qin State, the Qin State will not lose a lot. Li Mu said with a smile.

"It's a must." Shang Wen said with a smile.

"If we lose money, there is no need for us to develop in depth on the issue of Yanguo." Shang Wen said.

"That's right. Zhao Guo can also make a profit. This is the situation I hope to see, and I hope that in the future, Qin and Zhao will be able to carry out more such cooperation. After all, such a profit is very optimistic. Li Mu said.

"Yes, a lot." Shang Wen said.

"Goguryeo is our next target. We will definitely lose money when we fight the Goguryeo people, but when we do business, they will lose even more. Shang Wen said.
