"You did a good job. This battle was very difficult. But you played your due role." Wang Ben said, patting Newton's shoulder.

"Thank you sir." Newton nodded and said.

"But, sir, we still hope to participate in the next battle. After all, we can still participate in the battle." Newton said to Wang Ben.

"Well. I can understand your eagerness to fight. But sometimes, our soldiers still need a good rest." Wang Ben said with a smile.

"Don't worry, take more rest." Wang Ben continued comfortingly. Newton knew very well that in order to gain a higher position in the Qin army, he must continue to participate in battles and gain greater military merit in battles.

"Haha." Wang Ben laughed.

"I want to ask you, what do you think of the Western Regions prisoners of war?" Wang Ben asked, looking at Newton.

"This. I don't think these prisoners of war are of much use. If they are used for prisoner exchanges, they might be better." Newton saw Wang Ben's eyes with hope. Wang Ben thinks that the other party must want to let himself talk about the problem in favor of the prisoners of war.

"Yeah." Wang Ben nodded.

"You Huns invaded the Central Plains before, every time you looted a large number of people. You don't lack food. Similarly, the Qin State does not lack food, why can't you guarantee the safety of the prisoners of war?" Wang Ben said.

Hearing this, Newton's heart suddenly tightened. he knows. Wang Ben, the highest official, put forward this idea. There must be a certain prejudice against the Huns, and such prejudice cannot be eliminated.

"I know that you Huns, all profits other than military salary are calculated based on the first level." Wang Ben said.

"Therefore, you would rather kill more prisoners of war than **** those prisoners to the camp, because you need to spend a lot of energy to **** them. At the same time, the combat manpower will be reduced a lot, and these prisoners of war will bring you a lot of money. Big trouble, you are naturally reluctant to do this." Wang Ben said.

"Yes. Sir. We really think so. For these prisoners of war, we are willing to kill them instead of keeping them." Newton said to Wang Ben.

"Well, I understand what you think." Wang Ben said.

"But doing so will have great disadvantages to appease the people of the Western Regions. Now we need to change this situation. After all, some of the Western Regions are good for Qin State. If you blindly kill, it will cause their dissatisfaction. Holding resentment is extremely unfavorable to us Qin people." Wang Ben said.

"Of course. We also have to make some concessions on specific matters. For example, in terms of specific salaries, we will increase the price of prisoners of war higher than those of the first level. In this way, the officers and soldiers will have a lot of money. Income, what do you think?" At this time, Wang Ben asked Newton.

"This is very good. Just doing this will make our combat more difficult." Newton said with some embarrassment. He thought it was okay to raise prices and change the prices of captives. However, in this case, there would be great difficulties in combat difficulties. After all, such difficulties would make the Xiongnu officers and soldiers bear a certain price.

"In this case, we will double the price. You can make specific arrangements based on the actual combat missions. Try to catch those prisoners of war." Wang Ben continued.

"In this case, our task will be much easier. Thank you, the chief, for thinking about us Huns." Newton continued.

"Well, it's a big deal to say so." Wang Ben said.

"If you enter the Qin army, you are a good brother." Wang Ben said to Newton.

"If you do well, you can be promoted to general in the future. I really want to see you." Wang Ben said to Newton.

"Chief Xie." Newton saluted and thanked.

"Okay, follow me to see other officers and soldiers, I need to understand you cavalry units." Wang Ben said with a smile.

"Yes, sir." As Newton said, he took Newton to check their camp.

Wang Ben wanted to change the price because his chief of staff brought good news. The good news is that the railway company is willing to pay a certain price to buy these prisoners of war and become slaves. They need to build a large number of railways. But they lacked enough labor to build railways, and these prisoners of war were the best labor. The current supply of slaves was very limited, and Qin had very few foreign operations. In this case, the labor market demand is very strong, especially the Qin State Railway project is launched a lot. The labor needed is even more.

The plan proposed by the Chief of Staff to transform prisoners of war into railway labor was immediately supported by Wang Ben. Therefore, he decided to modify their military merit standards and increase the amount of rewards for prisoners of war. In this way, the situation of killing prisoners of war could be improved a lot. There are great advantages to building railways.

The north of Qin State.

"Leader Li Ma." Ju Qi smiled and caught up with Li Ma.

"Oh. It turned out to be Mr. Ju." Li Ma smiled and said to Ju.

"I don't know if Chief Li is free, I just got a bank loan, which can solve your weapon problem." Ju Qi said.

"Ah. Really? Can Mr. Ju really solve our weapon problem?" Li Ma heard the news. Laughing immediately, he thought that Ju Ji would not lie to him.

"Yes. There is no problem at this point. It is just that our cooperation needs to be discussed in detail. Otherwise, my problem will be very big." Ju Qi said at this time.

"Oh. Don't tell me, I still have a problem to tell Mr. Ju, my problem may be more difficult." Li Ma said.

"I don't know what's the problem with Chief Li?" Ju Qie asked with some worry. After all, he is very worried about what other problems Li Ma has. Such problems will make his plan a big surprise. He doesn't want such accidents.

"Oh. That's it." Li Ma said.

"After you found me last time and after discussing those things, I felt that a tribe like our own couldn't do things like what you said. After all, we couldn't take it off with so many chassis. Therefore, I have more I found a few tribes, weapons." Li Ma said with a smile.

"Oh. This thing." Ju Qi was a little surprised when he heard such a thing, but he carefully wanted to flow, thinking that the other party was doing the right thing. After all, relying on the military power of a tribe alone could not sweep the entire desert. The northern grassland, while further expanding a larger territory, after all, the military strength is still not enough. In this case, it is possible to provide more weapons and equipment, as long as enough land is obtained.

But at this time, Ju also remembered one thing. Those prisoners of war could just provide the railway company with a large amount of cheap labor. Although the number of participants was large, compared with the cheap labor, Ju said that these are still acceptable. .

"These. There is no big problem." At this moment, Ju Qi shook his head and said with a smile.

"No problem, no problem." Ju Qi said at this time.

"Come on, let's talk about specific cooperation." At this time, Ju Qi invited Li Ma to say. Talking that two people entered the tent of the leader of the Lima tribe.

"We can provide you with weapons. I am also willing to deal with a few more tribes. However, I have one condition." Ju Qi said at this time.

"Yeah. Mr. Ju can talk about it." Li Ma said at this time.

"When you occupied the northern territories, for the population of those tribes, I hope you can bring more people. With these people, it will be fine. Of course. I will give you a good price for those people. "Ju Qi said.

"It's good for those people to kill, why do you want those people." Li Ma said puzzledly.

"If you can provide us with a certain population, I will give you a suitable price. These prices can allow you to discount a lot of weapons costs. With these things, you can expand more land." Let's talk about it.

"Yeah. Okay, I promise you." Li Ma thought for a while and decisively agreed to Jue's terms.

"Next is the issue of land transactions." Ju Qi said.

"Every time you clear a thousand miles away, we will trade. In this way, we can also be guaranteed, and you can receive money in time, with greater guarantees." Ju Qi said.

"Well. That's not bad. You guys are quite good at thinking for us." Li Ma thought for a while and said.

"In this way, our transaction can be completed, and you also have sufficient funds to complete your tasks. Everyone is fine as soon as they come." Ju Qi said.

The reason why Ju He did this was actually because he was worried that it would be bad for the other party to take the weapon. If they could trade within a certain result, it would be of great benefit to them.

"In addition, there is another requirement, which is also our most worried issue." Li Ma continued.

"What's the requirement?" Ju Qi asked at this moment.

"Logistics supply, the biggest problem in this war is the logistic supply. The Qin army's logistic supply can be easily solved. But our logistics, you also know the situation of our tribe." Li Ma said at this time.

"This situation is very easy to solve, I can solve it for you, but this requires you to provide more land, only in this way, these materials will be resolved." Ju Qi made his own terms.

"Yeah. It's easy to say. I agree with this plan." Li Ma nodded and said at this time.

"In order to ensure the safety of our logistics, I decided to mortgage our tribe to you. In this case, you can rest assured, and I can rest assured." Li Ma decided at this time. Actually. Li Ma left his tribe to Ju Qi, because he knew that the daily expenses of these tribes were also very large. Although the tribe still had some food, it could not last long. If you give it to Jue, Ju and out of your own needs, it will definitely help your tribe. In this way, you will have a great guarantee for your own tribe problem.

"Yeah. Okay." Ju Qi knew what Li Ma thought, but there was no way to understand it. After all, he still needs these tribes to make a fortune, and without any investment, he can't make it. Ju and finally agreed to this condition. In this way, the tribe had a unified plan and began to expand northward.

A place fifty miles west of the coastal area of ​​Qi State.

"Sir, in about fifty miles, we will be able to reach the coastal area. There is our Marine Corps there." said a teenager dressed as a civilian.

"Little atom." Zhang Ying said while looking at the distance.

"Don't tell anyone about our mission this time." Zhang Ying said to Xiao Atom. Xiao Ao is Zhang Ying’s order. Zhang Ying’s main mission this time is to take over the South Korean Marine Corps in the coastal area, and then open up the sea route as quickly as possible and open up the maritime logistics supply line.

"But, sir, we have an order from the Ministry of National Defense. What are we afraid of? Just go directly to take over the army. Isn't it possible?" Xiao Atom said dissatisfiedly.

"Other officers directly take over the army and issue orders, but sir, you are not like that, but others say you are good." Xiao Atom said.

"I am different from others. We have to complete our tasks as soon as possible, and don't say much about other things." Zhang Ying said. Zhang Ying came under the order of the South Korean Ministry of National Defense. He knew exactly what his order was. Ordering him to get through the logistics supply line as soon as possible was the most important task.

"After we arrive in the coastal area, we still don’t publicize our affairs. We'd better go to the coastal area to take a look at the surrounding conditions, especially the conditions of the merchant ships. If we are not sure about these merchant ships, it will be very disadvantageous for us ." Zhang Ying said. Zhang Ying is very clear about the meaning of those merchant ships. If you go from the sea, you need a merchant ship. Without a merchant ship, you can’t complete the task. Therefore, his task is to solve the problem of merchant ships first. However, the previous behavior of sending troops to control merchant ships made the merchants very dissatisfied with how many merchant ships there are in the coastal area. I don't know in my heart, the only way is to investigate and see for yourself to see what the businessmen need.

"Yeah." Little Atom nodded. Expressed willingness to abide by Zhang Ying's orders.

"Okay. Let's see the situation, let's go." Zhang Ying said, and rushed to the coastal area with Xiao Ao.

Xinzheng, South Korea.

"This is the young man of Chu State." Fan Zeng introduced to Shang Wen.

"Oh. We have seen it." Shang Wen said to Fan Zeng.

"The Young Master Negumi came to Xianyang of Qin State in those days." Shang Wen said to Fan Zeng.

"Oh. I didn't think of this." Fan Zeng said to Shangwen.

"Yeah." Shang Wen nodded.

"Let's talk about business, I hope to speak straight to the point." Shang Wen said.

"Yeah. The prime minister is happy." Ning Chu said to Shang Wen.

"This time, we hope that the Prime Minister can talk about our country of Chu. After all, Chu is also a big country. Under such a big meeting, Chu should also do something." Said Ng.

"Well. This meeting is mainly to liberalize tariffs of various countries and promote trade growth among countries. The world is huge and there are various products. Such products are not available in all countries." Shang Wen said.

"If the switch tax is released, it will be conducive to the development of trade among countries." Shang Wen said.

"On the issue of Chu State, I think Chu State has done a very bad job. Tariffs are very complicated. And you are extremely obstructive to commerce. I hope that Chu State can change this." Shang Wen continued.

"After the tariff issue, there is still a lot of infrastructure. It is best to open up the main traffic arteries, especially the Yangtze River, and there are also a large number of railway projects. These are all favorable measures that will help the development of Chu's commercial trade. "Shang Wen said. Minzu listened patiently. He is weighing all the pros and cons.

"Are there any more? Prime Minister?" At this time, Minzu asked.

"Yes." Shang Wen nodded and said.

"There are also objects that Qin State's banks need to invest in. Only with the objects of investment can the State of Chu develop rapidly." Shang Wen said.

"Yeah." Ning Chu nodded. He believes that these are great benefits for Fuxing Chu State. Such benefits are long-term. He knows that there is a certain reason for Qin's development in this way. Although he does not know what kind of development results such development will bring, he thinks that this is the case because of his sensitivity to politics. He should accept his suggestion.

"Okay, I accept all of these suggestions," said Ning Chu.

Fan Zeng nodded aside.

"It's just that we have a big problem in the state of Chu." Ng Su continued.

"What's the problem?" Shang Wen asked.

"The problem with Chu is that we don't have a unified government that solves domestic problems. I think the prime minister is also very clear about the nobles of Chu, and the government of Chu cannot meet such needs." Said negative.

"Yeah." Shang Wen nodded.

"Don't know what Young Master Ningfu thinks?" Shang Wen felt Ningfu came here, not to discuss the meeting. It's something else.

"I hope that we can get the help of the State of Qin to establish a strong government in the State of Chu. In this case, the State of Qin can do everything in the State of Chu. But if there is no such thing, the conditions proposed by the State of Qin are recommended. Okay, Chu State can't achieve its own goals either." Ning Chu said to Shang Wen.

Shangwen frowned when he heard this request. Shangwen was a little annoyed at such a request, because Shangwen said these things with sincerity, but Ning Chu asked to support them in their political activities. Qin State has not had such activities. Shang Wenwen can oppose this matter.

When Fan Zeng on the side heard such a request, he couldn't help shaking his head, because he knew very well that Shang Wen would not agree to such a request. Obviously, Shang Wen would definitely not agree to such a request, and the matter would not happen. Will be established.

"I generally would not agree to this matter." Shang Wen said.

"But I will think about the matter of Chu State, maybe I can think about it." Shang Wen frowned and said.

"This." Ning Chu was a little surprised. He didn't understand why Shangwen didn't accept his request, maybe it was because he was too straightforward. Ning Chu thinks so. The subsequent meeting suddenly became a lot colder.

Ning Chu was sent away soon. Meng Yi persuaded Shangwen.

"I think the Chu State affairs should be agreed." Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"If you agree, it is a conspiracy. Use a conspiracy to subvert the Chu State." Shang Wen said.

"I can't do such a thing." Shang Wen strictly refused.

"If you don't do this, it will have very serious consequences. The current plight of Chu is very balanced. The nobility is the main reason for raising tariffs. But there is no political power in Chu to reduce tariffs. I think That guy has the ability, heart, and willingness to do such a thing. Why don't we agree to them?" Meng Yi said.

"Even so, we can't do this. In doing so, we are using a conspiracy to subvert a country. If this is the case, it poses an extremely serious threat to us. In particular, the future of Qin's unification war, Qin needs very much. With a big reputation, if Qin does this, public opinion will be very unfavorable to Qin." Shangwen said.

"Yeah. What you said is very reasonable." Meng Yi said.

"Qin's public opinion really needs such maintenance, but the situation in Chu is indeed very bad. I think the prime minister is still not clear about some details. Qin's sugar price has risen very sharply, and the price of tea is also very high. The country of Chu has already monopolized the entire southern trade. In the Western Regions, the country of Qin needs a lot of tea, silk, sugar, and these products of the country of Chu. On the contrary, the various products of the country of Qin have dropped a lot." Meng Yi said To.

"This." Shang Wen was a little surprised, he really didn't expect such a thing to happen.

"Countries are already very dissatisfied with Chu. They have monopolized a large amount of this kind of trade, and a large amount of gold flows into these countries, but only part of our products enters Chu. Things like Chu are really annoying. If you want to If we think about it, our loss will be too great." Meng Yi said.

"Yeah. There is such a thing." Shang Wen said.

"Yes. This kind of thing has happened many times, and our current inventory has been reduced to a fairly small level." Meng Yi said to Shangwen.

"We can only solve these problems if we solve the problems of Chu, otherwise, it will seriously affect our trade in the Western Regions. Many of the commodities we give are given to the nobles of Chu. If we don’t overthrow the nobles of Chu. The regime will always be detrimental to the Qin State." Meng Yi continued.

"Cheng should think about it. Most of our businessmen's profits are eaten up. This is very detrimental to us." At this time, Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"It seems we have to solve this problem." Shang Wen thought for a while and decided to do this.

"Yes. I think we should pay attention to the current situation." Meng Yi said.

"Especially in the case of South Korea. South Korea is at war with Chu State. At least it is a local war, but this is only happening outside the land of Chu State. If we can fund negative Chu, Zah Chu State. Have a greater impact. I think these can be done. In addition, I think that specific things should be left to the bank, after all, this matter has great risks, and the profits brought by such risks are very huge. "Meng Yi then suggested to Shang Wen.

"Yeah." Shang Wen nodded.

"Yeah. There are ideas." Shang Wen said.
