The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 2356: The Admiralty is independent

"Very good, very good." Li Guo said after the first reaction.

"Very good, quick. Launch the attack immediately. Now that the Karachi people have been stunned by the huge explosion, they don't know what to do." Li Guo exclaimed excitedly, but Ma Biao was at a loss, telling the truth. , He saw such an explosion for the first time. Never before had anything of such great power exploded. He was already very shocked.

Li Guo knew that for the Yue family, this was an important opportunity. The opening of the city wall meant the fall of Karachi. What he has to do now is to attack quickly, because the Karachi people certainly did not react from the huge explosion.

"Hurry up and launch an attack. Hurry up." Li Guo shouted loudly. But no one reacted, because the Yue people were also shocked by such a shocking military action.

Although this is an opportunity, such reactions are equal for both sides. First of all, the Yue people are not ready to launch an offensive, especially the Indians, which severely hinders the Yue people’s offensive path. For such a huge explosion, they thought it was the gods of heaven who were angry. Because such an astonishing explosion could not be created by humans at all, but the people of Yueshi did it. The campers who have seen such a huge explosion can only respect the Yue people even more.

But the timing of the attack was gradually missed. The Yue people cannot launch an offensive in a short period of time. Their soldiers need to be reorganized. The same goes for the Karachi people, but they are shocked a lot, especially in terms of morale. The attack was delayed, but the Yue people concentrated a certain amount of firepower and launched a firepower test. The Karachi people's situation was very bad.

Qin State Xianyang. Within the Ministry of Defense.

"From my personal point of view, the navy is very important, because the navy can protect Qin's trade. Although Qin's navy has nothing to do, Qin also has maritime needs. I personally think so." Navy Minister Wang Shu Speaking of. The Secretary of the Navy is not a good position for the Qin State Navy. The Secretary of the Navy has been replaced for six consecutive terms. The reason is that the Navy cannot get the R&D it wants and maintain the military expenses that it usually needs. This has led to the extremely slow development of the Navy. Under such circumstances, many naval officers and soldiers are quite critical of the Secretary of the Navy, because the Navy Department is a subordinate unit of the General Staff Headquarters, and for this unit they are responsible for more administrative management and military expenditure quotas, but because the Navy always takes Less than the required military expenditure, and the position of the five major services is very embarrassing, this directly caused the Admiralty to be inferior. This is also the reason why the Secretary of the Navy has changed six consecutive terms. The shortest one is only three months, and the longest one lasts for only nine months. The development of Qin's navy was exceptionally slow.

"Qin does not lack naval technology, but lacks the conditions for naval development. At present, Qin may not have noticed these. Therefore, the navy develops slowly, or because the navy does not have such a demand, most of Qin’s trade is related to land. The main reason is the construction of railways. This is the reason why the Qin army is developing rapidly, because many wars are fought by the army. But unlike the navy, Qin has no maritime needs and there are not many wars. The Marine Corps is directly under the jurisdiction of the prime minister’s house. They have a lot of convenience." Wang Shu said. He was not born in an orthodox navy. He was transferred from the army to the navy. The minister of the navy has been changing. Wang Jian's replacement was very annoyed. Therefore, he directly found a general who was born in the army and transferred to the navy to manage the navy. Wang Jian intends to let the army take over the navy, because judging from the current state of development, the navy’s situation is very bad. Completely confused. Instead of letting the navy continue to exist, let the army merge with the navy. In fact, the navy itself feels very bad about this secretary of the navy, because Wang Shu was born badly. He was born in the army and transferred to the navy halfway to develop. Who knows if this army guy will sell the navy. In the army, navy officers and soldiers all have such concerns.

Wang Shu has already heard of it. He knew what it was like to get down from the Secretary of the Navy. He was sixty years old. He has become a veteran at this age. Perhaps the above meant that he was deliberately retired. The Secretary of the Navy can't do it for long. If he goes down, he will retire and stay at home. The competition in the army is very fierce. Basically, young people participate in it. The Navy needs fewer people. He just moved to the navy for development, the navy just lacked manpower, but the actual situation is like this. This location is not good.

After thinking about it, Wang Shu decided that he would not be short-lived Secretary of the Navy. He wanted to do something, at least to reverse the problem of insufficient naval expenditure, so he found Wei Liao and tried to convince him that it would be better for him to meet the prime minister and let him reverse this unfavorable situation. He knew that Shang Wen supported the development of the navy.

"All countries are now actively developing the naval cause. What I know is that the Royal Navy of South Korea and the Navy of Chu are also the same. We Qin must do something. If we don’t let it go, our status will be reduced a lot. As far as I know, Qi and He Yan may still have such an idea. Qin will face a great opponent in naval construction in the future. This is something we don’t want to face.” Wang Shu was a little excited to Wei Liao. Speaking of. He knew that the only way to get more military support was to increase the potential threat of the Qin State. This is how the army’s development was. They often reported a large number of military threats in the newspapers, such as the Huns threat theory and the mountain men threat theory. Or it is the theory of the threat of the Western Regions, and it constantly emphasizes the enemy's strength and Qin's military disadvantage. Then they received military expenses, but the Qin Navy did not have such a threat. Their threat came only from the taxation vessels of the Chu aristocrats and a small amount of water pirates. Water pirates have been transferred to the sea for development on a large scale. Because the significance of the Yangtze River Golden Waterway is waning. The coastal areas have great potential for development.

"I know all this." Wei Liao put down the pen in his hand and said.

"Qin State is facing such a threat, but the overall military expenditure is in the process of lowering. Qin State needs funds in many places, and this amount is also very staggering." Wei Liao said.

"Sir, I think we should do something. Even a slight increase in naval funding is beneficial to the development of the Qin navy. Qin cannot rely solely on the development of the army, nor can it rely solely on the development of the heavenly army. The navy, if If Qin State abandons the sea, then one day South Korea, the Chu State Council will launch an offensive from the sea. Then, how does Qin State face such a threat, and what must we do now?" Wang Shu said to Wei Liao. Regarding the development of the Navy, he personally believes that as long as it increases and changes the current situation, he, the Secretary of the Navy, will become independent.

"Yeah. You may be right." Wei Liao said with some compromise. Wei Liao didn't know much about the development of the navy. But he knew that at present, the Qin army is huge, not only that, the sky army is being strengthened, and the navy is the weakest link, the reserve forces are not counted, because they are part of the Qin war mobilization capabilities. The Marine Corps is the Qin Expeditionary Force. They have to maintain an expeditionary state at any time, while the Army is in a situation of excessive consumption. They need a lot of infrastructure, especially rail transportation. In fact, the development of the army is directly related to Qin’s economy, especially the development of trade, but the navy, in terms of maritime affairs, South Korea and Chu are actively developing, and Qi is planning to build a navy, and Yan may also be involved. Participating in it, on the contrary, it was the state of Qin who established the navy first, but there was no movement at all, that is, the state of Qin should strengthen some naval construction without increasing military expenditure.

"I give you such an opportunity. I need you to sort it out and try to persuade the Prime Minister as much as possible." Wei Liao is considering safety. Give the other party such an opportunity.

"Thank you sir." Wang Shu said.

Inside the prime minister's house.

"Are you finished?" Shang Wen asked Wang Shu with his hands. Maybe it was because he was too nervous. Wang Shu just repeated the words to Wei Liao excessively a few times, and Wei Liao on the side couldn't listen anymore.

"This. Prime Minister, I think, I may be over. But I hope that the Prime Minister can seriously consider it. I hope that this can really be achieved." Wang Shu said excitedly.

"Haha." Shang Wen smiled. Then he signaled Wang Shu not to be nervous and sat down. Meng Yi gestured personally. Wang Shu looked at Shang Wen nervously. He didn't know whether what he said attracted the attention of the other party. If he did not attract attention, then his own future and the future of the Navy would be in an extremely unfavorable situation, Wang Shu Now he regrets a little bit. He regrets why he didn't write more, or in other words, to give himself a more complete opportunity. Anyway, he is very anxious now.

"I personally attach great importance to the construction of the navy." Shang Wen said.

"Qin State needs the navy very much, but the current situation is like this." Shang Wen said. Hearing this, Wang Shu was excited to stand up, but Shangwen motioned to the other party to sit down.

"From the army to the navy, we need a transition and a balanced development strategy. But at present we can do some things. For example." Shang Wen looked at Wei Liao, Meng Yi, and then Wang Shu.

"We made the Admiralty separate and became a department unit under the Prime Minister's Mansion. What do you think?" Shang Wen proposed at this time.

"The Admiralty? Come out independently?" Wei Liao was a little surprised. He didn't understand what Shang Wen's thoughts meant, or what Shang Wen thought of, but Wang Shu on the side was overjoyed. This means that the Navy will be taken seriously.
