The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 2425: The northern railway

"How's the weather?" Li Gan asked the weather officer Li Mi.

"The weather has been pretty good recently. We are under high pressure. The temperature is a bit low during the relatively high pressure, but it is helpful for us to maintain a relatively stable wind direction. However, considering the special area where you fly, you have to cross a bunch of mountains, where the wind direction is extremely high. Unstable, I hope you fly as high as possible. Avoid the chaotic wind direction between the valleys causing extreme bad effects on your flight." Li Mi introduced. He is the best weather officer sent by Li Xin's Ministry. Qin State still does not have a comprehensive grasp of local weather data. This requires a lot of time and energy to do a good job. But Li Mi can only share the results of his own research to facilitate them to complete such tasks.

"Okay, we accept this suggestion." Li Gan nodded and said.

"Damn it, no, if we fly high, we have to reduce fuel. Who knows if we can find the expeditionary army, if we can't, we have to make a forced landing, or we have to float in the wind." Qin Li on the side said worriedly. Flying high means that they have to reduce their weight as much as possible. It also means that they may carry a lot less fuel.

"There will be ways. We can throw away our food and some supplies. Those things are useless. Other places can also be reduced, such as fire protection equipment. Just leave one. Others Throw it all away, I think it can be done." Li Gan said.

"Just kidding, isn't it a bit crazy for us to do this?" Qin Li asked.

"No, that's it. Anyway, this is a one-way flight. We can’t do anything about it. Sometimes, I think the airship may burn up after we make an emergency landing, and it’s a cumbersome thing. It’s better to find a way to remove the useless. I think that those heavy armors should be removed so that we can fly higher, and then, carry more fuel so we can fly farther. That’s it. Let’s remove the extras.” Li Gan said To.

"Okay." Qin Li nodded. Then the two people started their modification work. They needed to dismantle a lot of things that they thought were useless, and then save more space to carry fuel.

"That's the radio equipment?" Li Xin said to Chen Na.

"Yes, sir, that is the radio equipment. In order to ensure that they can operate, we plan to ship two at a time, as well as other important parts, so that they can keep as many as possible." Chen Na said.

"I heard that these things are easy to damage? Is that right?" Li Xin looked very tired, and the expeditionary forces tortured him uncomfortably.

"Yes, sir. There is a two-transistor inside, and it is easy for him to send a signal. This thing is easy to break. If the temperature is too high, it is easy to burn out, and it is fragile when bumped. There is really no way." Chen Na introduced .

"You must be careful, the expeditionary force's connection needs to be completed by you. Your mission is very important." Li Xin nodded and said. He doesn't know the principle of radio transmission, but what he knows is that if the equipment does not work, his troops will not be able to get in touch.

"I wish you success in this mission." Li Xin looked at Chen Na and said. Then Li Xin saluted.

"Thank you, sir." Chen Na responded.

Ministry of National Defense of Qin State.

"Yan State's wood is almost selling crazy. I heard that many of them have gone to chop wood." A lieutenant colonel complained.

"We also have a lot of northern forests, and there is a lot of felled wood. And more than the desert in Mobei." Another lieutenant colonel said. They are making some plans, and the above has given them a task, which is to let them study how to expand the occupied area in the north, but they have not been able to do this. They need to study.

"Damn it, my old Tian. You should know that the place is very cold now. It is more than forty degrees lower than freezing point. The weather is terrible to think about." A lieutenant colonel said.

"Yeah. Yes, the place is very cold. The Huns cannot survive in that place. They can only rely on us. I really don’t understand that the above allowed us to expand in that place. I don’t know if we occupy such a place. Is it just that? Cut the wood?" Lieutenant Colonel Old Tian said.

"I think this matter is not so simple, because the value of a single piece of wood felling is too low. It is of no use, and merchants will not invest in such a place, that is, the cost of sending troops to occupy and send troops is very high, and the financial funds are also consumed. Very uneconomical, this is a disaster for us." Lieutenant Colonel Old Tian said, shaking his head.

"This is the above matter, we must consider to solve this matter from another angle, if it is expanded." Another lieutenant colonel said.

In the palace of the prime minister of Qin State.

"We have carefully studied the situation in the north. If we expand, we will face many problems, such as logistical supplies and temperature. The climate there is not suitable for our expansion to the north, and the Huns cannot stay in that place for a long time. Going down, the living conditions there are extremely bad. I worry that the railway may freeze and become more brittle." Wei Liao said to Shangwen.

"I know. The climate in that place is very bad. Especially in winter, because of the frozen soil, building a railway in that place requires a greater price. In addition, the terrain is extremely special and we need to spend a lot of money. Buying explosives to blow up those places to build railways, and the economic value of the area is very low, and the development value is low. It is impossible for businessmen to invest in the construction of civil railways." Shang Wen said to Wei Liao.

"Yes, these are the difficulties we face. These difficulties are enough to make us unable to carry on, and the financial funds consumed are very large." Wei Liao said to Shangwen.

"Well. I discussed with Meng Yi and decided to levy taxes. To increase the tax rate of certain types of taxes, or to develop a brand new tax rate to increase government revenue in order to solve these problems, we can give a longer time, but We must solve this problem." Shang Wen said to Wei Liao.

"I personally think that the construction of this railway in the north may require very large financial resources." Wei Liao looked at Shang Wen and said.

"Well. Ten years, if it doesn't work, 15 years, 20 years, we must finish." Shang Wen said firmly.

"Yeah." Wei Liao nodded in agreement. He agreed with this view.
