Chu State, Pengcheng. A meeting room in the Partial Hall of the King of Chu. This is a high-level meeting.

"This is news from South Korea not long ago." King Chu looked at the report in his hand and handed it to Xiang Yan, Xiang Liang, and Fan Zeng. Chen Ping didn't know what happened. However, this kind of conference itself carries great national security problems.

"Karachi, a trading port city of the Koreans, was bombed by the Qin air force." King Chu said. After all, King Chu himself didn't know whether they were bombings caused by Qin's heavenly army or Qin's army aviation. In short, they could only be called the air force.

"Before, the Koreans discussed air defense issues with Zhao Guoren. After all, Qin has such a large air force, they can carry quite a lot of bombs to reach our heads, and the air defense problem is extremely serious." The King of Chu said solemnly.

King Chu was very worried about this problem, because he knew that the problem would become extremely serious. Quite a few airship leaders drove straight in and dropped a lot of bombs. After a while, Pengcheng would fall into a sea of ​​flames. The last Pengcheng may become a ruin.

"My lord, the air force of the Qin people is quite large. According to what we know, there are at least 20 squadrons of bombing airships in Qin. If they further tap the war potential, this number may exceed one hundred. There are many. When we use it intensively, our country of Chu can't stand it at all." Xiang Yan said worriedly.

Xiang Liang nodded to the side. Xiang Liang agreed with such a point of view. Everyone knows that Qin hasn't become a big country for several years. They have been actively developing the economy, and the rapid development of various sciences and technologies, even Xiang Liang could not accept it. Moreover, once this economic strength was tapped, it was quite terrifying. For example, airships, they just usually maintain 20 squadrons. Airship forces. As for South Korea, Zhao Guo, in total, had less than seven squadrons of bombing airships, and many airships were still unable to fly. The threat of these countries to Qin is almost slight, because they want to fly over Taihang Mountain and Hangu Pass. The geographical advantage allows Qin to suppress this situation. The most terrible thing is their technological advantage. Who knew they would have it? What kind of anti-aircraft weapon.

"I know this too well, so next, our things will become much simpler. What we have to do is to unite, no matter how much it costs, we will also unite with Zhao and South Korea, and get from it. For some air defense weapons, we also have an important mission, and we also have a bombing squadron like Qin's." King Chu said.

When Fan Zeng heard this, he looked at King Chu. This requires a lot of funds. Without these funds, how would he deal with these things? Fortunately, there are some copper mines in the south that can offset them, but these copper mines can only solve some problems. .

Chen Ping also looked at King Chu, he knew. Financial problems must have been difficult to sustain. Because the capital required is a huge amount, they simply cannot afford it.

"This." Fan Zeng said with some embarrassment.

"My lord, this requires a lot of financial funds. From the current point of view, our financial funds have just improved. At this point, we have a lot of funds and we are going to enter it." Fan Zeng said. Relying on maritime trade, maritime tariffs have increased the financial capacity of Chu, but only a little. Chu still lacks considerable financial funds to do some infrastructure work, and now, a large amount of funds have been concentrated all at once. In the military field, this made Fan Zeng very embarrassed.

"You can think of a way to solve this problem. The issue of national defense cannot be delayed. Once you go to war with the people of Qin, you will obviously not be able to check the people of Qin. I think you are very clear about this." King Chu said.

"This, we understand. It's just that there are great financial difficulties." Fan Zeng said embarrassingly.

"Well, I heard that several northern countries are actively issuing bonds, and we can do the same in Chu State, issuing a large number of bonds to make up for the funding gap. Chu State’s current financial situation is very good. This state, yes, Everyone is good." Chu Wang said. King Chu thought of bonds. In his view, bonds were the only effective way to make up for the lack of financial funds.

"Well, well, let's go back and discuss the result." Fan Zeng had to agree.

The expansion of the weaponry made Fan Zeng feel extremely heavy, because it was very difficult to resolve these weaponry, and this was definitely not an easy thing to solve. It will take a considerable amount of time to completely solve it.

Inside Fan Zeng's office.

Fan Zeng didn't know how the meeting ended, but what he knew was that a lot of money was spent. He was wondering where to find such a large amount of money for the King of Chu.

"With such a large amount of funds, there is a considerable gap. How should we solve it? Issuing bonds, the problem is who will buy these bonds. As you know, public utility bonds are better to say, but other bonds are simply not possible. The only way to solve such a problem is, what I think of is that the problem can only be solved by plundering a large number of colonies in various places." Fan Zeng said after drinking. He felt that this incident made him extremely irritable.

"Prime Minister, I think that in addition to plundering this matter, we must actively develop colonies, and then use overseas colonies to solve our bond problems. In other words, we treat the economies of those overseas colonies as The collateral for our bond issuance." Chen Ping thought of it. he knows. If Chu country wants to develop and possess, it must divert its attention. In other words, it must transfer domestic contradictions and pressure to foreign countries. This is what he and Fan Zeng said.

"Well. Transfer, this method is good, but will those people buy it?" Fan Zeng asked.

"It depends on how much overseas benefits we can get. If we can get a lot of benefits from overseas, the sales of these bonds will not be a big problem. The most important thing is that we need to have a good relationship with the bank. Everything. It's not a problem." Chen Ping suggested.

"Yeah. It seems that this can only be done. No matter what we have overseas, as long as it is valuable, we will take it all." Fan Zeng put down the water glass in his hand. The increase in military spending made Fan Zeng very helpless, because he could not collect taxes on a large scale.
