The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 1748: Shang Wen's helplessness

"Zhao Guo and we thought of going together." Shang Wen said after seeing the telegram sent by Zhao Guo and Li Mu.

"What's wrong?" Meng Yi asked Shangwen.

"The way Li Mu thought of was war and bank." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"It's nothing, right?" Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"Yes." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"Look at it." Shang Wen picked up the telegram and went to Meng Yi's side to explain.

"What is war?" Shang Wen asked.

"It's to develop the market." Shang Wen said in surprise.

"Zhao country has a lot of human resources, especially they have a large number of veterans. Zhao’s food production is insufficient, especially for those veterans. Zhao’s financial difficulties make it more difficult to maintain the expenditure of a large army." Shang Wen Speaking of.

"So. Li Mu chose the method of war." Meng Yi said.

"Yes." Shang Wen said.

"Not only these, they also plan to set up a bank, the bank can solve the financial difficulties, with funds, they can purchase a lot of things. In addition, there are wars where they can expand their territory and seize more spoils. With these, it is enough. Repay the debt of the bank." Shang Wen said.

"It's just that, what about Zhao's domestic economy?" Meng Yi asked worriedly. Meng Yi worried that Zhao Guo's excessive expansion would lead to weak domestic economic growth. If this were the case, Qin Guo's investment plan would be wasted. This is not good news for Qin State.

"Don't worry about these. We will solve these." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"These two things, I think, can be closely related to Qin's current policy. The two countries can better resolve this matter." Shang Wen said.

"En." Meng Yi nodded.

"Okay." Meng Yi said.

"However, before, I think you should go to the General Staff, where I think you should be needed." Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"Why?" Shang Wen asked.

"Because the General Staff is worried about one thing. We will know when we go." Meng Yi waved the letter in his hand and said.

"What do you mean?" Shang Wen asked.

"The General Staff asked us to solve the problem of reinforcements. The problem of the Western Regions has been difficult to solve." Meng Yi said to Shangwen. Then two people arrived at the staff.

Staff. In front of the huge sand table. Shang Wen, Meng Yi, Wei Liao, Wang Jian and others gathered in the direction of the Western Regions.

"Qin's current military defense is relatively weak. We can only huddle in the desert and the southern foot of the Xiaowang Mountains to defend." Wang Jian introduced.

"Because the forces are really limited, we usually form a defensive fortress core in units of companies. But at the edge of this core. The cavalry of the Parthian nation and other cavalry teams can pass, if they are lucky enough, they can directly Get here." Wang Jian said and pointed to Huangshi City in the Western Regions.

"This is the end of our Western Region Southern Line Railway. There are a lot of materials accumulated here, and various businessmen gather here. If they harass here, our situation will be more passive." Wang Jian introduced worriedly.

"It seems that the situation is very not optimistic." Shang Wen said in a low voice.

"Yes. The prime minister is right." Wang Jian nodded and said. Although Shang Wen's voice is very small. But I was still listened to.

"Our situation is very not optimistic." Wang Jian said to Shang Wen.

"We are in the Western Regions, the huge Western Regions, Little Wangzhou plus Wangzhou, and there are only 20,000 Qin troops. Twenty thousand Qin troops are scattered over a radius of thousands of miles. Our strength is very weak. We have only one in our hands. The mobile force is also very limited." Wang Jian said worriedly.

"We need reinforcements." Wang Jian said to Shang Wen.

"The problem is the present. It is impossible for Qin State to draw out more reinforcements. Especially the mobile units." Wang Jian said.

"As long as there are reinforcements. Is it all right?" Shang Wen asked.

"Yes, as long as there are reinforcements." Wang Jian said.

"Is it okay for any country, race, or nationality?" Shang Wen asked.

"This. It's better for Qin Jun." Wang Jian said. In fact, Wang Jian's inner world still hopes that Shangwen can establish several new Qin State divisions from the newly established states of Qin State. Then replace those Qin divisions with combat experience to the Western Regions, so that Qin can solve the problem of insufficient strength.

But Shang Wen does not want to do this, nor does he want to do it. Because it is too unwise to do so. Several states in the Qin State have just become the Qin Federation. They need time to get the benefits of becoming the Qin Federation, rather than benefiting from the federal states on a large scale. Shang Wen will not recruit a large number of soldiers from the Qin State Federal State anyway. This approach is very unwise.

"Of course, we hope that the prime minister can recruit a large number of soldiers from Qin's federal state, which is of great benefit to us." Wang Jian said to Shangwen.

"I can only provide you with minority soldiers. There are also recruited soldiers. These people are excellent tactics. They have strong mobility. They can constantly harass and attack the enemy." Shang Wen said to Wang Jian.

"Besides." Shang Wen then said to Wang Jian with a telegram.

"I can provide you with some soldiers from the State of Zhao. As for how many there are." Shang Wen said and handed the telegram to Wang Jian.

"It depends on how much you and Li Mu can talk about." Shang Wen said and sent the telegram to Wang Jian. Wang Jian looked at Shang Wen strangely.

"Soldier of State Zhao?" Wang Jian looked at Shang Wen.

"Yes. Zhao State soldier." Shang Wen nodded and said.

"War and bank. What does this mean?" Wang Jian asked.

"This is a soldier." Shang Wen said to Wang Jian.

"There are a large number of veterans in the country of Zhao. Zhao cannot support these soldiers at all, and the grain output of Zhao is not enough to feed them." Shang Wen said.

"Therefore, we have a large number of soldiers involved. As for how to cooperate, I think we will solve these problems." Shang Wen said without worry.

"Prime Minister, don't you worry about the military expenses?" Wei Liao said worriedly at this time. Because in his opinion, Shangwen would find a way to deduct part of each military expenditure, and this time directly increase the number of troops.

"Don't worry." Shang Wen said easily.

"Because participating in the battle this time is a commercial organization, not a soldier, a soldier in the true sense." Shang Wen said.

"This." Wei Liao looked at Shang Wen worriedly. It means as if this war has been out of control.

"The difference is here." Shang Wen said.

"Prime Minister, war is a service for soldiers, so merchants shouldn't participate in it." Wang Jian felt that Shang Wen took war too lightly. It is not treated as a real war at all. Therefore, he directly said such a thing about Shangwen's remarks.

"Why?" Shang Wen asked unceremoniously.

"The soldier is to win more resources for the country. The businessmen are the ones who develop this resource. There is a big relationship between this," Shang Wen said.

"It's just that businessmen shouldn't care about our soldiers' affairs." Wang Jian also said unceremoniously.

"Whatever?" Shang Wen said.

"If the Western Regions are to be kept, they can only increase their troops, and these are the troops that can be provided at the moment," Shang Wen said.

"I want to report this matter to the king in detail." Wang Jian said coldly.

"Well, I will too. But I want to solve the problem of soldiers." Shang Wen said. Speaking of Shangwen, he left. Meng Yi looked at the two people facing each other, feeling that their heads were about to explode. In desperation, Meng Yi chased it out.

"Why are you so angry?" Meng Yi asked.

"The war needs a new form, and General Wang Jian should keep up with the trend of the times." Shang Wen said.

"General Wang Jian certainly has something wrong, but he has a lot of experience in warfare. Li Mu admires it very much," Meng Yi persuaded.

"A lot of things need to be accepted and cannot be set in stone. The current state of Qin. I, the prime minister, already knows very well. Finance can't spend so much money. Therefore, military matters have to be changed. And Wang Jian. Not at all. Knowing this, he wants me to recruit soldiers from those federal states. Then replace soldiers with combat experience. I know this, but if you do this, the federal government will issue bonds and spend money. What is this? "Shang Wen waved his hand and said.

"In this case, we will go back to the old road. This is not the situation we want to see." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"We have to solve military expansion. Military expansion can open the other side's market and bring great profits. Since there are profits, businessmen will do it. Then we soldiers can stop and carry out military reforms. I have explained all of these. "Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"In order to appease the soldiers of the State of Qin. That's all I can think of." Shang Wen said.

"However, on the issue of the Western Regions, General Wang Jian will not give in at all. He wants me to reinforce these military forces. I can't help it. If this is the case, the finances will be completely distressed. I am afraid that the federal government will stop functioning. "Shang Wen said helplessly.

"There will always be a way," Meng Yi said.

"There is no way." Shang Wen said directly.

"There is only one way. Qin needs soldiers. It needs a large number of soldiers. But the current situation of Qin is not when it comes to recruiting soldiers, financial support is not supported, and the people don't really want to fight." Shang Wen said.

"The places where there are soldiers are only those ethnic minorities. They are poor. We are rich in Qin. Not only that, but there are six countries and six countries that are extremely miserable. They have a large number of old troops to deal with, and they have no way. We have a way. To solve this problem, these troops can expand and expand the influence of our Qin Federation. This is a great thing, but General Wang Jian just refused to agree. I can't help it. There really is no way." Shang Wen waved his arms helplessly.
