North of Qin State.

"Sir, have you heard? The Department of War is going to be reformed. This reform may require the abolition of a large number of troops." A colonel staff member worriedly said to Newton. Newton is now a brigadier general. He is not too worried about his future.

"I haven't heard anything? Let's talk about it. The reform of the War Department will only develop on the good side, not the worst situation. Here, it is better than staying in the north. Look at those Hun tribes. The situation is very bad. Therefore, we are still the best here." Newton comforted the other side.

"I don’t mean that. I mean, if the Ministry of War abolishes the army, I think that our ethnic minorities, such as the mountain people, the Huns, and the Hu people, are the first target. The Qin people’s army is not very good. It may be abolished. Moreover, if it is reformed, every reform is technical. I have heard some people say that the Qin army had abolished the army when it was preparing muskets, and now, it is necessary to carry out military reforms. Those of us who use muskets , We are in a disadvantaged position. Although we are very mobile, you look at us. We don’t have much technical content. If this goes on, it must be abolished or retired. In that case, many people will face retirement. It's possible. What can we do after we go back. The entire tribe depends on us soldiers for food." The colonel said with some excitement.

"Yeah. You are right, but don’t worry, Qin’s military reforms will not be carried out rashly. They always have to think about it before proceeding. You have seen it. Even we are no longer in the army. The outside world also needs it. Ours. It's just that we all have to learn." Newton said. For the outside world, Newton yearned even more. However, he believes that the military career he chose is not bad, but he is still at a loss for military reforms. Many things need to be learned and accepted to master. He hadn't seen many things. He is even more looking forward to such an unknown challenge.

When others are considering survival issues, he is more concerned about how to learn brand new things, and whether they can accept these things is still unknown to him.

Southeast Asia, this is the title of Chu people, but most of the Chu people overseas don’t know that this continent is called Nanyang Continent. In their opinion, these city-states on the Nanyang Continent can be robbed because they occupy a lot of The advantage of large weapons is very obvious. People on the mainland use cold weapons, while they use hot weapons.

"Sir." Our next goal should be the Dhara Kingdom. The city-state of this country is not far from the sea. After we attack, we can take him. "An officer with the rank of major on his shoulders said. His uniform is very dirty and it doesn't look like a regular army.

"Well. Let's fight this Dhara Kingdom, how many people are there?" Li Man asked. Li Man's pirate fleet has been assembled. In order to shorten their supply line, they spent a lot of money from Zhang Xiongdao to supply the gunpowder they needed. Artillery shells, in addition, some warships added some muskets, bayonets were also equipped with some, and the artillery was increased a lot to increase siege operations.

"The number of them is small. There are more than 10,000 people in the entire city. Their army has only more than 2,000 people. The equipment is extremely backward. They have not even seen a gun. We attacked them during the last artillery attack. They quickly took shelter, which allowed them to escape a disaster, but I think they are already in disaster this time. We need to attack this Dhara kingdom to meet our supply needs. Our cost this time is very large. If If we cannot be satisfied in the Dhara Kingdom, our morale will be severely deficient." said the major officer on the side.

"Yes, this time we are going to attack the Dhara kingdom. The wealth in Dhara is ours. Those Dhara people will stay with me." Colonel Li Man said.

"Sir. Don't those people be killed?" the major asked inexplicably.

"No. Can't be killed. When I came, I heard that in our eastern colony, the nobles of Chu need a lot of slaves. These people are good slaves, and we can sell them for a great price. Isn't it great to make a fortune?" Li Man said.

"It's the sir, but some people still have to be killed." said the major.

"This is natural, fighting, there are no undead people, we want this effect. Prepare, we are going to attack the Dhara kingdom, take the Dhara kingdom, you can pick the women inside, and you can take the wealth inside. "Li Man smiled and gave the order.

"Yes, sir." The major left excitedly.

Dhara Kingdom. It is a small city-state on the east coast of the western continent. His population is widely dispersed, but the population in the city is very small. The standing army has only more than two thousand people. Li Man and the others have harassed before, but they have not seriously attacked. After being replenished this time, they decided to take this city-state, and then establish a forward base here, step by step deep into the mainland, because the mainland is rich in population, wealth, food, women, these are what they need most. s things.

"Boom. Boom. Boom." The two artillery boats bombarded along the coast. The Dhara people who heard the rumble of the artillery had taken shelter, but the Chu pirates had already begun to put down their boats and land. There were a lot of them this time. The number of people who disembarked was as high as more than 500. In comparison, they were not many, but they were morale high and well equipped. Before they were equipped with muskets without bayonets, but now they have perfected Musketeers Equipped with bayonets, the Musketeers are an absolute killer against those Dhara soldiers. As long as they fire two rounds, the opponent will quickly collapse. Therefore, Li Man stepped up his efforts against the musketeers this time, but in terms of artillery, they added some infantry artillery, but they were all small-caliber infantry artillery, most of which were two-inch-caliber infantry artillery. These artillery can deal with infantry, but deal with those castles, if the castle facilities are adequate, they have no way at all. But he believed that it was enough to deal with Dhara City. After all, Dara City is not a big city.

The Chu people are constantly preparing to go ashore. The Dhara people have already taken refuge. They have nothing to do with these armies that use fire-breathing pipes, because they think this is a **** sent by the heavens, and they have no way at all. They can only watch.
