"Qi people have developed a new type of warship. This kind of warship poses a great threat to us. Our code name for them is the tortoise." A navy lieutenant colonel said. Many people looked at it with the information in their hands.

"This kind of ship is covered with iron armor. His protection has increased very high. At the same time, it has increased the ability to prevent fire. This improvement is of great help to their naval defense." The navy lieutenant colonel continued. .

"The worst thing is that their offensive capabilities have been strengthened by the artillery of the State of Zhao. There are 30 large-caliber artillery pieces, all with a caliber of about seven inches. They are extremely powerful. Our current warships can hardly withstand their rounds. With a volley, it is very likely that we will be defeated by them all at once. This situation is very likely to occur. This is the biggest difficulty we are currently facing." said the Navy Lieutenant Colonel.

"The artillery shells we are equipped with are difficult to penetrate the iron armor. Even if it penetrates, it is difficult to form a threat in a short period of time. The weak defense of our warship will directly cause the collapse of our warship's offensive. It is a unilateral advantage, which will cause great harm to us." said the Navy Lieutenant Colonel.

The people present were silent after hearing it, they were very clear about the advantages of this kind of warship. With regard to the warships currently equipped by South Korea, it is difficult to gain an advantage.

"So next, we need to solve this dilemma. We must surpass Qi's warships in attack and protection." The Navy Lieutenant Colonel demanded.

"Qi people can wear iron armor, and we can do the same." An engineer said Qi Guo's practice of wearing iron armor.

"As a result, the sailing speed of the ship will be reduced a lot. We can't fight and run, relying on our maneuverability to fight, but now we are all at once limiting our maneuverability." Another engineer said.

"Yes. If we do this, our maneuverability will be reduced a lot. Not only that, ships that sail very slowly have little effect on combat." Another engineer said.

"Shall we fight like this? Every time we see Qi’s warship coming over. We flee. In this case, if we encounter a large-scale decisive battle, we will flee as a whole. In this case, the loss to our Korean navy It's very big. It can't be done." said the navy lieutenant colonel.

"If the power of a steam ship can provide a larger scale of power, I think such a thing is more acceptable." An engineer said in a low voice.

Other engineers are still thinking of ways to solve this problem, but they are more technically solving this problem, and have not overused some new technologies, and some engineers believe that only new technologies can solve such problems.

Qin State, Xianyang.

"Well, a very good solution. Dawan has always lacked enough soldiers to carry out a defense plan, so that they can solve this problem well. For those retired soldiers, I have always been worried about how to solve them. Employment issues." Shang Wen said.

"For example, training. This requires the government to provide them with some training positions. Not only that, we also need to provide more financial support, and the financial side can't provide such a large amount of funds. This is for us. , Is a big difficulty, if we do this, it can be regarded as a big problem solved for us." Shangwen said.

"Yes." Meng Yi said.

"It is difficult for those retired Huns to educate. I know their situation. Although we have strong requirements, they can stay in office and recognize at least 500 words, but many of them can only know 300 words. Originally, we planned. Reduce the standard to expand the scope, but the result is that 500 words are the limit. If there are only 300 words, it is very difficult for them to read the combat manual. This is an extremely difficult thing." Meng Yi said.

According to the business survey, Qin State concluded that the number of characters commonly used among Qin citizens exceeds 2,000. According to such a standard, the standard of 500 characters is still very low, which is only equivalent to Qin’s primary school culture of less than three years. Because the number of words they can recognize has exceeded 600 words, it is for them to face such a level of knowledge. It becomes extremely difficult. Educate them, many things are difficult for them to accept, which is a great difficulty for them.

In the northern part of Qin State, in Zhang Mo's personal tent, because he has obtained a lot of data, his men are making statistics. The first snow has fallen here. The first batch of reserve materials has been sent to the Huns and related tribes. The Huns had a warm winter for the first time.

"Is Officer Zhang here?" an old tribal leader came in and asked with a smile.

"Oh. It's Chief Mo. Come in and sit down." Zhang Mo put down his work and welcomed him.

"Oh. Chief Zhang, I will ask your opinion on some things first." Chief Mo said unceremoniously. Zhang Mo asked him to prepare some milk tea for him. Steaming milk tea can relieve the discomfort caused by the cold.

"Oh. I don't know what Chief Mo wants to know?" Zhang Mo asked curiously.

"It's like this. We got some news from the south and the west. These news came from the Qin army. Many men in our tribe went to serve as soldiers. As a result, the Qin army had to reorganize a lot. People have been retired. They can’t go to the army. Some people want to find a job in a local factory, but they ask for literacy and training. We don’t understand and don’t know a lot of things. We can’t count. This. This is a big problem." Chief Mo said.

"This. There is no other way. The reform of the War Department is like this. We are the Navy and cannot help you." Zhang Mo said helplessly.

"This, I know, but what I want to say is that this recognition is very important. I think so. It's cold and we can't go out. Moreover, we made a lot of money this time. With such a sum of money, Shall we improve our situation, that is, let you send some people to teach us to read and write, some characters, your characters, as long as we have more than 500 characters, and the more advanced ones are more than 1,000 characters, we can do it In this case, we can go out to work and do some things. This is also a good way to increase the income of our tribe. It is also possible for us to do some business." Chief Mo said.

"Do you want to learn, read and write?" Zhang Mo asked in surprise.

"Yes, right. It's the same as Chief Zhang said. We just learn some if we can learn. We don't force anything else. As long as we can understand more than 500 words and get a good job, it will be fine. It's that simple." Chief Mo said with a smile.

"Well. This is a good thing. In this way, your quality will improve a lot, but. Such a thing is beyond our control. However, I will apply for such a thing for you, if possible, Qin The national education department should send you teachers for free to teach. After all, this is education, and education does not cost any money." Zhang Mo said.

"Then, thank you so much." The other party said excitedly. Chief Mo was very grateful for everything Zhang Mo did. And sincerely asked Zhang Mo to attend their party. Zhang Mo had to agree. The people here are very enthusiastic and honest, they don't have many ideas. For such people, Zhang Mo feels very suitable for him, and Zhang Mo has a deeper feeling for them.

Qin State, Ministry of the Navy.

"This is a telegram sent by Zhang Mo. He asked some teachers to go to the north to teach the Hunu tribes, some writings, and our words. He said that it only requires more than five hundred characters." A naval officer held it. The telegram said to Wang Shu.

"We are the Admiralty, not education." Wang Shu heard Zhang Mo's telegram. He found it difficult to understand.

"Sir, how to deal with this matter?" the official asked.

"Give it to the Ministry of Education, or directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Perhaps this matter is a bit special, but considering Zhang Mo's great contribution, we must consider their affairs, but the ships we sent to the north seem to have lost contact. . This is not good for us." Wang Shu said.

"Yes, sir, do we continue to send some new expedition ships to the north?" the navy official suggested.

"Well. Well, I can only do this. After all, we can't wait like this. However, this time we have to send more ships, but considering the impact of the cold weather on the navigation, I think this time The number of ships should not be too many, we should reduce some, but more ships just need to be prepared." Wang Shu said.

"Yes, sir." said the Secretary of the Navy.

"Sir. This is a new naval report." The director of the Naval Weapons Research Office said nervously.

"What happened?" Wang Shu waved his hand to indicate that the navy officer could go down.

"That's it. The Qi navy is preparing to launch a batch of new warships. They pose a great threat to the South Korean navy. This kind of ship is covered with iron armor and has strong defense capabilities and is equipped with many large-caliber artillery. Although their speed is relatively slow, they can pose a great threat to those South Korean ships. The South Korean side is very worried about this. They have sent a telegram, hoping that Qin and South Korea can carry out related cooperation." The director said.

"This matter looks very tricky, but the threat to us is not great. For the Koreans, it is an insurmountable problem." Wang Shu sat down and said.

"Yes, sir. The Korean side has rethinked the use of some new technologies, but those technologies are generally immature. Under such conditions, they hope to further cooperate with us." The director said.

"Well. The Admiralty can cooperate in this matter, but we need some benefits. It's just such a matter, and I don't know how to solve it yet." Wang Shu said.

"We need to report with the Prime Minister's Office. In addition, we hope to attract the attention of the General Staff. After all, in the traditional sense, we are more concerned with threats on land. If this matter can attract the attention of the General Staff, it is the most important thing. It's great," Wang Shu said.

Qin State, the General Staff.

"What would happen if Dawan and Tocharo formed an alliance?" Yang Duanhe asked Wang Jian.

"I don't think the situation is very good." Wang Jian said.

"The two countries have not reached a true alliance. Such a relationship is still very complicated." Wang Jian said.

"First of all, the Dawan people are powerless to launch an offense. And Tochara is also powerless to launch an offense. Both countries are passive defenses. In contrast, the offensive Parthians will become very active, and they can start from Dawan's offensive can also be launched from Tocharo's side. Or it can be launched from a more northerly position. In short, things are extremely beneficial to the Peacers but not to us." Wang Jian said.

"After all, they are simply conducting defenses instead of conducting effective operations. Faced with such a situation, what we can do is very limited." Wang Jian said. Yang Duanhe looked at the map and nodded.

"If the two countries can greatly consume the offensive force of the Parthians in defensive operations, and can have a cavalry force launch an offensive, this problem can be solved very well." Yang Duanhe said.

On the moon, Moran's command car stopped. They need to rest here.

The soldiers are looking for a source of water. Choose a campsite. Tent the tent.

"The ones here are still very good." Moran said to Meng Ping.

"Yes. It's really nice here. It turned out to be the location of the camp of the Indian Army." Prince Barrie said. Meng Ping looked at each other. Prince Bali was taken hostage, and only when the Indian army retreated to the east bank of the Indy River could he return to Indy. But he was not worried at all, because the Indian army had retreated. The speed of the retreat far exceeded his imagination, and many things were lost. They don’t need the tents, some heavy baggage.

"Well. I don't know what Prince Barry thinks about all this?" General Moran asked.

"I don't have any thoughts. Our failure is worth it. You have the help of the people of Qin, and there are airships in the sky. Those things have caused a lot of chaos for our soldiers. And your offensive operations on the southern front blocked our retreat. If you continue to increase your military strength, our hundreds of thousands of troops and various logistics units will be trapped here. Without food, the land here is very barren, and our national strength has been greatly weakened. We cannot afford it. Such a large-scale attack." Prince Barry said.

"Yeah. But, I want to know, what are your plans next?" Moran asked.

"Reorganizing the army, you have shown us your greatness and our shortcomings. Although we have imitated your muskets, it is too inconvenient in terms of weight. If we want to control the southern city-states, just There must be an army like yours, this is what we must do." Prince Barry said.

"Yeah. That's right. However, it takes a lot of money. I don't know if you still have the ability to continue to form such combat units, you know. The amount of money required is very large." Mo Lan said.

"We will find a way to solve this. This shouldn't be a problem." Prince Barry said. Moran looked at Meng Ping. Meng Ping just shook his head. He felt that this was unbelievable. After such a huge war, he doubted whether the Indians' mobilization ability could continue.

"It's okay to borrow debt, but it requires a lot of debt. At the same time, our bank cannot support more gold coins. Because there are not many gold coins." said the representative elected by the Bank of Korea.

"This, I know." Prince Holly said.

"I want to know, how do you solve such a problem?" Prince Holly asked.

"Issued bonds, mortgaged us a lot of bonds, and then we issued paper money. Of course. How much the government lent us, how many bonds we issue, and increase by more than 50%." The bank representative said.

"Paper money?" Prince Holly asked.

"Yes, issuing banknotes, that is, we lend you banknotes, you issue bonds, we use banknotes to buy, banknotes must be in circulation. We are good, we naturally lend to you, if you use gold coins, gold coins have to wait forever . The situation of the war has been difficult to wait.” said the bank representative.

"Yes, it's hard to wait any longer." Other bankers said one after another.

"I understand this. But, can only these paper money problems solve such problems? How many paper money can we get?" Prince Holly obviously hasn't figured out such problems. For him, money is metal, and those precious things The metal, when will those pieces of paper become currency? It is difficult for him to understand.

"This is difficult for us to understand, but we need to explain it to you," said the bank representative. A prince with no financial knowledge, and a group of savvy bankers. This kind of business is totally inclined to bankers. They will induce Champa to issue more bonds. As a collateral, Champa must use banknotes. The right to issue banknotes is mortgaged to the bankers and Champa will return it. What they get is precious metals, and what they get is paper money. At the same time, when a large number of paper money enters, they directly obtain the currency issuance right of the country. Although there are still some problems, these paper money will bring great efficiency. This kind of efficiency is definitely not comparable to the northern Indian countries, because it lacks enough conditions to solve such problems. They cannot use financial problems to solve their current financial difficulties, and their only way is to levy taxes, which will only aggravate their more crisis financial situation. Indy may collapse at any time. This is a method that can never be sustained for a long time. But the Indians did just that.
