"This is the situation in Chu State. The power of the nobility is generally greater than the power of the royal family. This is also the political feature of Chu State." Xiao He said to Yingyu.

"Okay. We have made the right choice, and hope that our choice is correct." Ying Yu said to Xiao He.

Chu is a big country. This big country lies in its demographic advantage. The population brings a large number of soldiers. At the same time, it has a vast territory. Although Qin once invaded a large area of ​​territory, he re-expanded a large area of ​​land overseas to make up for it. After their previous losses, Chu State is recovering, but this situation has changed because of the changes in Chu's internal political situation. Because the power of the Chu royal family was gradually weakened. The coup and a series of military actions have greatly weakened this situation, but the power of the nobility is quietly surpassing the power of the royal family. This is also an important reason for the weak cohesion of Chu. For banks to make money, they don't care what the political trend of Chu State will be. They only need to find a suitable partner for cooperation.

Qin State War Department.

"The Ministry of the Army, a newly independent department." Bai Dong said to all members after taking office. He is a retired colonel, a politician from the people, of course, he was nominated by the prime minister, and King Qin approved it.

"Our department faces great difficulties." Bai Dong said.

"The army is facing all kinds of difficulties. Our army needs to reform, change the bad things, adapt to the times, and become better. I hope to cooperate with you happily, and I hope you support me." Bai Dong said simply. Originally he wanted to talk about a lot of things, such as the shortcomings of the army, the future, etc., but he decided to change it temporarily. Suddenly he had a good idea to look at the grassroots, to see the bottom, what kind of situation is there, maybe They can change a lot.

"Yes. Sir." The officers nodded and said.

After the crowd dispersed, his deputy minister Li Le stepped forward

"Sir, can I make some suggestions?" Li Le is a soldier, his rank is major general. The officer was born.

"Yes." Bai Dong nodded. Li Le nodded. His position is very embarrassing. His commander is a retired colonel, neither is a brigadier general, and he is a major general. In principle, he can lead an army, but now he has to take orders from a civilian officer, a retired colonel. This is where the civilian officials govern the generals. As the Ministry of the Army becomes a department unit under the Prime Minister's Office, it will naturally be managed by civilian officials, because the Qin State needs civilian officials to change some situations in accordance with the needs of finances.

"I think that we should not be too anxious about the reform of the Army. We don't know much about the situation. The Department of the Army knew about these conditions before. However, for various reasons, the war and the logistics supply situation are outstanding. I know these." Li Le is very frank. Speaking of.

"But there are still some situations. We don't know. We don't know what the Prime Minister's Office requires, and there are too many situations at the bottom. The former Secretary of the Army knows about these situations, but the difficulties are great. I hope you can go down and take a look. Understand some of the underlying conditions and change this situation." Li Le said.

"Yeah. Thank you, thank you very much. Your suggestion is very good." Bai Dong nodded and said.

"To be honest, I'm also a soldier. I like to go straight. I just had this idea. I originally prepared a lot of opening remarks, but now it seems that I don’t need it anymore. All I have to do is go and take a look. What happened in the end?" Bai Dong said.

"Sir, you are doing the right thing. I can foresee that the Prime Minister's Office is deliberately promoting this army military reform. The funds that our army may receive will be reduced a lot. Sir, your responsibility is great. I am very worried. The army treats you very much. After all, this is a very difficult thing. The Chief of Staff also knows this problem, and the former Secretary of the Army has realized this problem, but the military expenditure is still used for war. In the case of reduced funding, I am very worried that our army It's still difficult to maintain this situation." Li Le said.

"Don't worry, the prime minister said that there are always more solutions than problems, and we will solve these problems. In this way, we must have confidence." Bai Dong said with a smile.

"Okay." Li Le nodded. He knew that the army had many problems, and the Qin army might have to face a large-scale adjustment. This adjustment may exceed any previous one.

The Ministry of the Navy of the State of Qin.

"The Koreans are actively building their shipyards, and we need to provide a lot of technology. Moreover, the Chu State sent us some telegrams, they hope we can send some naval officers to teach them some military knowledge, and then set up them. The naval officer school and the naval sailor school." Wang Shu looked at the telegram in his hand and said to his subordinates.

"Sir, it's good to say in terms of technology. We only need to cooperate with the Korean military industry. Patent fees can bring us a lot of income. But we need to build a series of brand new ships." A technical official said. With regard to technology, the Navy Department has confidence in it.

"Oh, sir, I personally think that for technical issues, we should adapt to the current needs. At present, all places are actively building ships, and the speed of building ships is required to be fast. We need a solid, fast, and flow-through operation that can be produced. The ships of Chu people need them, and the Koreans also need them. They can be built quickly.” A young man raised his hand and said.

"Well, yes, this proposal is very good, speed up the research, we need to provide them with such ships, so that the navy will have funds. As for personnel training, we can do the same, the navy has a large number of such personnel, we can Teach them how to use a variety of navigational instruments. However, in terms of experience, especially in terms of experience, I think our Qin Navy may not be as good as the South Korean Navy. Their experience is more abundant. Therefore, I suggest that we cooperate with the South Korean Navy. This question." Wang Shu decided.

"Yeah." Many people have recorded that the most important department of the Navy Department is the technical department. This is a department that can bring a lot of technical reserves. It was this department that I wanted to focus on most at the beginning.

Inside Shang Wen's office.

"Are the two departments operating normally?" Shang Wen asked Wei Liao.

"Yes, they are all operating normally. I have shared a lot of things, at least the army and navy have reduced a lot, which is very good." Wei Liao said.

"Yeah. But there is one thing that needs our attention, that is, the Navy Department proposed the idea of ​​building a naval base. They plan to build a naval base in the north. There are great difficulties there. And it takes a long time to build it, which I am worried about. That's it." Shang Wen said to Wei Liao.

"Well, I read the report. The difficulty is great, but once the construction is successful, our navy will have its own outlet to the sea, but the cost is very high. We need to expand the entire north to get the outlet." Wei Liao Speaking to Shangwen.

"Yes, this requires the cooperation of the Army, but the problem is that the two services cannot get such cooperation at all. This is what I worry about. I am thinking about how to expand at an extremely fast speed. But. No." Shang Wen said, shaking his head.

"The Prime Minister, I think we should not be too anxious about this matter, but at present, I think there is an opportunity, for example, trees. South Korea has established a large number of shipyards in Jiaozhou, which is Xinjimo, and a large amount of private funds have already entered it. They are all under construction, but they lack wood. It can be said that it seems unlikely that a large amount of wood will be built there, and the demand for wood is very large. The people of Yan are trying to find a way, but the ice is extremely severe in winter, and they can only rely on it. Railway transportation is done." Wei Liao said to Shangwen.

"You mean, this might be an opportunity?" Shang Wen asked.

"Yes. That's what I mean. Wood is a good opportunity for expansion. After all, wood is cheap and in great demand. The number of ships built may be a huge number. Where does this wood come from? There are a lot of wood in the north and the north. The wood can meet our needs." Wei Liao said to Shang Wen.

"It seems that our focus may re-focus on the north." Shang Wen said.

"Yes, but our technical department may create more things. We don't know the current situation, but the result is like this." Wei Liao said. His subconscious mind is that the Qin State's Admiralty is very promising. They created a lot of things that the Qin Navy didn't have.

"Well. There is still some time before the new technology is really promoted. I think the demand for wood will make us target this demand in the north. In this way, we will expand this demand. That's it." Shang Wen nodded and said. There are still some railways in the north that can do this, but the country of Yan does not. A war cost the country of Yan this opportunity.

There are many virgin forests in northern Siberia. In the eyes of the Huns and Qin people, they are useless, and the winter is long and cold. No one wants to stay in such a place, and the cost of cutting down trees is too high, because the cold is extremely cold. Easily consume physical strength and inconvenient transportation is also an important factor. In this way, it is very difficult to develop, but the demand for building ships is huge, and this demand comes from South Korea’s shipbuilding industry, a new industry.

"Xin Jimo, I feel that it is still the name of a Qi nationality, our city should not be called this name." Han Shu said to Zhang Liang in his office.

"This." Zhang Liang looked at Han Shu in confusion.

"I think it's called Qingcheng." Han Shu thought about it.
