For the improvement of Qin's financial capabilities. The State of Qin still needs a process, and this process requires the people of the State of Qin to think about it by themselves. Because Shangwen's help in this regard is extremely limited, Shangwen only gave such a reminder to King Qin. The Qin State Financial Institution can only upgrade itself based on this prompt.

The Western Regions of Qin State.

"Quickly set this up." A lieutenant colonel said to the engineers of the Qin Army.

"Strong. Hard." The engineers exhausted all their strength to erect the steel frame.

The lieutenant colonel looked at these steel frames.

"Sir, it's going to be dark soon." An ensign officer looked at the sky worriedly and said.

"Yes." The lieutenant colonel said by looking at the sky.

"This is so naive, our steel frame is not hypothesized, this communication can't be done." The ensign waved his arm and said.

"Don't worry, we can only come slowly." The lieutenant colonel said sadly.

"Assuming equipment is not so easy." The lieutenant colonel continued.

"Sir, the weather forecast says that there may be a large area of ​​cold air coming in the next few days. In this case, our situation here will be even worse. The difficulty of erecting equipment will be greatly increased. With the special team, they will Tian has been preparing, it may be about to leave." The ensign said.

"If you give us some more time, it may be more abundant for us." The ensign suggested.

"I think too, but I will give it a try, but this is a war. The war would not give us more time." The lieutenant colonel thought for a while and said.

"It's just that, our situation will become more difficult." The ensign said worriedly. The lieutenant colonel waved his arm to beckon him not to say anything.

The speaking lieutenant colonel is the radio communication squadron responsible for contacting the special team this time. Because the radio needs to communicate with each other, they need to build more wireless receivers, so the equipment is extremely large, and the special team can set off at any time, so , They arrived ten days later than the special team. And their work has just begun. The difficulty can be imagined, coupled with the influence of bad weather. They don't know at all whether the radio is working properly.

"Sir, do we cancel the use of radio equipment? We can do it with manpower. You must know that this mission is reconnaissance and not a large-scale invasion." A special team member said.

"Enough. There are our own arrangements, what can we do?" a lieutenant replied.

"Everything is ready. We can set off at any time." The lieutenant ordered.

"Yes. Sir." The member lowered his head and replied.

As for the situation of communication equipment erection, the staff also has the situation.

"Wang Ben meant that our special team should be deployed as soon as possible. If the delay is longer, our situation will become more complicated." Yang Duanhe said.

"It's not just these, it takes too long to set up the equipment. The special team is difficult to deploy in that place. They themselves worry that if the time waits too long, their vigor will disappear." Yang Duanhe said.

"Are they adapting to the combat situation in that place?" Wang Jian asked such a question at this time.

"I think." Yang Duanhe looked at Wang Jian's stern eyes.

"Maybe not." Yang Duanhe replied.

"Let them be fully prepared." Wang Jian said.

"Okay." Yang Duanhe said. Wang Jian knew that the erection of equipment caused their slow progress. However, what Wang Jian was worried about was not the problem of the equipment, but the weather, the topography of the combat area, and the arrival of severe cold weather. The severe impact caused by the bad weather was far away. It is greater than the hypothetical degree of the equipment, because keeping the communication knows the situation at best. As far as Qin Jun's current projection ability in the Western Regions is concerned, he is simply unable to transport them back. In contrast, what Wang Jian is worried about is what he should think about most. The strength of a country’s military capabilities is not its weapons or the combat effectiveness of the army, but the strength of its long-range projecting ability. After long-range projecting, it still maintains a strong combat capability. This is the sign of a strong military. , Qin State still failed to meet such requirements.

"What's the situation in the Hexi Corridor Defense Line?" Wang Jian asked next.

"We have mobilized all the militias that can be mobilized in the vicinity, and require people in various places to strengthen their guard." Yang Duanhe said.

"The main town has also organized a militia. The town has also built some necessary fortifications to deal with some obstacles to the cavalry." Yang Duanhe said.

"Not bad." Wang Jian said.

"We have mobilized all the forces we can mobilize. However, without a regular army as a reserve team, I am still a little worried. If we have an army that can harass the other party, perhaps we can reduce some defensive pressure. After all, the Qin army on the defensive line. Defense. The strength of the army is too long. Very low-level officers are reporting that their morale is low. The soldiers feel very tired without changing their defenses for a long time. This situation is the same as the situation in the Changping War." Yang Duanhe said To.

"There is no way, we can't change defense at this time." Wang Jian said.

"Yes, we can only increase military strength. Instead of reducing military strength, the problem is." Yang Duanhe said.

"Where do we draw forces? Qin Jun has already transferred all the forces that can be transferred. In this case, how do we draw troops?" Wang Jian asked.

"En." Yang Duanhe nodded.

"However, we thought of a way." Yang Duanhe said at this time.

"What way?" Wang Jian asked.

"Zhao Jun. Now Zhao Jun has a large number of troops to be transferred to the Western Regions, but the situation in the Western Regions is not very clear. If we can hire these soldiers to defend, I think. The situation may change a lot." Yang Duanhe said .

"Use Zhao Jun?" Wang Jian looked at Yang Duanhe and said.

"Yes." Yang Duanhe said.

"At present, only this method is feasible. You must know that we are recruiting troops, but it is impossible to use them in a short time. You must know that they have just been established, the familiarity of the equipment, and the generation of combat effectiveness. There is no time for a year. There are also battles, I think it will be difficult for us to carry on." Yang Duanhe said.

"However, to use Zhao Jun, it will cost a certain amount of expenses. Is it deducted from the military expenses?" Wang Jian asked.

"This is something that can't be helped. If we can persuade the Prime Minister's House to talk about this, I think it might be better." Yang Duanhe said.

"En." Wang Jianen said. He is thinking about this problem.

"Do you think our line of defense is a big problem?" Wang Jian asked such a question.

"This. I think there is still a problem. As for the size, our defense line is supported by one or two divisions. The front of a division's defense is very large and wide, so that our depth is difficult to guarantee. Such a situation "Yang Duanhe said unoptimistically.

"Yes." Wang Jian was also worried about this. In the Hexi Corridor, the maximum force Qin can deploy is only one or two divisions. However, the area that one or two divisions must defend is very large. As a result, the Qin army can only deploy in key areas. For other peripheral areas, they can only set up some obstacles or bury a large number of mines to complete. Relying on this line of defense to prevent the infiltration of the Qiang people in the mountains, Wang Jian was also very bottomless in his heart.

"Call the Prime Minister's Mansion to clarify the situation." Wang Jian thought for a while and thought it was better to ask Zhao Jun for help. For Zhao Jun, Qin Jun is very familiar with this opponent, they still have tenacious combat effectiveness, especially the combat effectiveness of Li Muyi Jun admires Qin Jun very much. Both Qin Jun and Zhao Jun understand both sides very well, and they have just risen. The Qin Army’s internal evaluation is generally not high because the new Korean Army’s combat targets have always been weak. Coupled with the rigid study of the Qin Army, they generally think that Zhao Jun's combat effectiveness is not high. Therefore, Qin Jun is more inclined to use Zhao Jun on the issue of which country's army to use.

In the palace of the prime minister of Qin State.

Shang Wen and Meng Yi began to discuss this issue seriously.

"Our line of defense needs to be made up." Shang Wen said.

"Yes, think about it, there are only 10,000 to 20,000 troops, and it is difficult for me to imagine how they can complete such a large area." Meng Yi said from the perspective of Qin's security.

"Yes. That's right." Shang Wen said.

"It's really difficult," Shang Wen said.

"Therefore, the General Staff hopes that we can hire Zhao Jun. In this direction, the Zhao Jun has gathered a large number of troops here. These troops are extremely idle, and Zhao Jun himself cannot afford a large amount of defense expenditure. , Their financial situation is very bad, if we use these Zhao Jun, I think the situation may be better." Meng Yi said.

"Such considerations also make sense." Shang Wen said.

"But using Zhao Jun's words, we can afford their salaries and logistical supplies, which will increase our military expenditures." Shang Wen said worriedly.

"But it can solve our Hexi Corridor defense problem. If good, we can. Directly use these Zhao Jun to fight in the southwest direction and completely solve our Hexi Corridor flank security problem." Meng Yi said.

"En." Shang Wen touched his chin and began to think. For Meng Yi's words, Shang Wen felt that it would be more beneficial to Qin State. Although Qin State has spent a certain amount of money, it can solve the security problem. At the same time, Zhao Guo may also be willing to see this. After all, their national defense expenditure is not very large. And Shang Wen's solution to the problem in this way can be said to solve a problem of Zhao Guo to a large extent.

"I think this thing is good." Shang Wen said.

"But." Shang Wen turned. And Meng Yi looked at Shang Wen.
