A large number of Persian insurgent troops are retreating in the territory of Rest. They fought a defeated battle when they were on the offensive. After suffering a huge loss, they could have taken that strong city, but unfortunately, the Parthians were very strong in defense. In order to completely solve their defensive problems, they put in counterattack forces at the most critical moment. In that case. As a result, the Persian insurgents suffered heavy losses.

"I just said that your situation is not very good. After you have suffered a certain loss. And after the other side implements a strong counterattack, your army will quickly collapse." Du Fei said.

"You are right." The black widow nodded helplessly. What he saw was a large number of wounded soldiers. They lost more than half of their weapons. In addition, there were only 20,000 people who had participated in the battle of more than 70,000 people.

"When the war encounters a slight setback, it will retreat quickly. Or retreat. This has a very bad impact on the war." Du Fei said. In the offensive operations, the first wave of offensive caused the Persian insurgents to lose a certain number of troops. Some other insurgents saw the lost army, after losing a large number of troops. They evacuated quickly. If you follow the standards of the new South Korean army, this is an escape. Such guilt is to be executed. However, the order of the Persian restoration government was completely invalid. They cannot control so many insurgent troops.

"Do you mean that all the uprising troops must be managed by our restoration organization?" the black widow asked.

"Yes. That's what I mean." Du Fei said. The black widow was silent.

Chu State, Pengcheng.

"I agree to participate." Fan Zeng said. Chen Ping asked Fan Zeng to do one thing, and that was to participate in the Western Trading Company. This requires Fan Zeng to invest a sum of money. In addition, Chen Ping also wrote a letter to the King of Chu, hoping that King Chu can also be a role model for participation. General Xiang Yan from the military also participated. Xiang Yan supports the expansion of such things.

"I will provide a sum of money, but more funds still need the participation of those councils and big businessmen." Fan Zeng said.

"Well, the current businessman's attitude is better. However, the attitude of the parliamentarians is not very clear. Some people are involved. However, there are still many people who are unwilling to come in." Chen Ping said, shaking his head.

"Well. I think, is it right to give some congressmen some preferential tax policies to attract them to participate, Prime Minister, the only way to attract them." Chen Ping said.

"Yeah. I think so, if we don't pay taxes and don't pay taxes everywhere, our situation will become very useful." Fan Zeng said.

"Yes. We are not relying on the company's tax revenue to make money, as long as the overseas colonies brought about by expansion are the problems we can solve." Fan Zeng said.

Seth country. Guo Xiang's office.

"What do you mean?" Guo Xiang asked angrily.

"The country of Seth seems to be collecting more taxes. The intention is not clear, it seems that the Parthian nation in the east is in chaos. We also know this, but we don't know what the other party wants to do. They tax our trade. It has increased a lot." An economic adviser said.

"Tax increase? How can they be so casual." Guo Xiang said.

"Yes, but their taxation is very strange. For arms and weapons, large-scale tax exemption, some technical aspects, they will also be exempt. And for some other materials, such as other materials, such as silk and other materials . Will increase a certain amount of taxation.” The economic adviser said.

"What do they want to do?" Guo Xiang asked.

"I don't understand. For such a large-scale introduction of military technology and other things, I am worried that they may take military actions against the Shabbat in the East." The economic adviser said.

"This is a major event, but such a thing is also very unfavorable to us, and we still need them to do such a thing." Guo Xiang said.

"Telegraph immediately to let the local people know about this." Guo Xiang thinks this matter is very important. Judging from the movement of the State of Seth, this is indeed happening. Seth has established a series of military industrial enterprises, which can produce some flintlock guns, light artillery, and some unqualified large-caliber guns. Artillery. These are all artillery made by the Seth people. According to some information they have collected, the Seth people seem to have expanded their armaments on a large scale. It seems that there is a lot of interest in the rest of the East. Think about it, the same is true. After all, they still need to do something like this. After all, this is of great value.

The telegram was soon sent to South Korea, Xinzheng.

"On the one hand, we are levying a lot of taxes. On the other hand, we are stepping up arms." Han Shu looked at the telegram in his hand and said to Zhang Liang.

"You tell me, what are they trying to do?" Han Shu said, handing the telegram to the Minister of Defense.

"My lord, I think that the Kingdom of Seth wants to move the Persians and the Parths in the east. After all, they have fought a war with the Parths, and they may not lose too much force." Said the minister.

"Yes, Lord, but, Lord, I think the purpose of the Seth people's taxation of us is very simple. On the one hand, they want to fight, but at the same time they don't want to pay. After all, their economy has just started. Since there is no They have to pay for the money. In this way, they will target the economy at our trade and impose unreasonable taxes on us. This is such a big loss for us." The Minister of Defense said.

"They think very well." Han Shu said unhappily.

"My lord. We think so too. The local businessmen have sent dissatisfied telegrams several times. They are extremely annoyed by the behavior of the Seth people. After all, they have annoyed our trade." The Minister of Defense said.

"Yes, Lord, I also mean the same thing. The Seth people have good ideas, but they are not good for us. We can't wait any longer." Zhang Liang emphasized at this time.

"Yeah." Han Shu nodded, Han Shu also felt very dissatisfied with Seth's behavior. Han Shu still knows such thoughts.

"But, there is a question, are our logistics supplies done well?" Han Shu asked.

"My lord, we are still quite prepared. In Karachi, we have established a series of military factories, but the soldiers are a bit short. However, we have already cooperated with the Shazhou side. Maybe we can start military cooperation with them. , To recruit some military personnel. In this case, our military strength will rise rapidly in a short period of time." The Defense Minister said.

"Well, I understand." Han Shu nodded.

"But preparations are still insufficient, and the Navy still lacks enough fuel. Can you solve this problem?" Han Shu asked.

"This." The Minister of Defense, Zhang Liang and the other ministers were unable to answer this question.

The technical department of the Ministry of Defense of South Korea.

"The fuel issue, I see, you don't have to fight." said a middle-aged technical backbone of the Ministry of Defense.

"Coal, in foreign countries, we found a small amount of coal. But in Seth Country, but found a large amount of oil, the Seth people already have a record of using oil." Said the middle-aged technical backbone.

"And now, you know. We are in overseas areas, it is difficult to find coal, so it is very unfavorable for us." The middle-aged technical backbone said to many technicians.

"We are in technology, not in politics. The political situation is far different," said the middle-aged technical adviser.

"Since there is no coal, this is the actual situation. We use petroleum and liquid fuels. After all, researching liquid fuels is of great benefit to us." said the middle-aged technical backbone.

"What does the supervisor mean?" some technicians asked.

"Our boilers that burn liquid fuels, not coal, are far inferior to liquid fuels in conversion efficiency. There are also steam turbines. We need such a large turbine, and its efficiency will be very high. That's it." Speaking of the technical backbone of the year. Technology requires experimentation. Rather than excessive discussion, the discussion is meaningless.

State of Zhao, Handan. Guo Kai's Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Unexpectedly, the Koreans will still need our coal." Guo Kai said with a smile.

South Korea’s warships lacked a large amount of coal. The only way was to import coal from the Kingdom of Zhao and then transport it to the South to the West. Only in this way can they have sufficient coal resources for large-scale expansion.

"Prime Minister, Korean warships need a lot of coal fuel. Our warships, merchant ships also need it." The Defense Minister told Guo Kai.

"Yeah. I know this, but we don't have a place to put our coal." Guo Kai said.

"Look at this map, most of the area is occupied by the other party. We have any place to use, we need to find a place to stay." Guo Kai said. Guo Kai had to think about Zhao's naval expansion. The Zhao State Navy needs to expand, and some islands need to be expanded, but these islands are all occupied by South Korea.

"Prime Minister, do we make some exchange terms with South Korea? We rent some places, or exchange some places with coal." The Defense Minister said.

"Well. Good way. Discuss with the Koreans and say that we need a place to hoard a lot of coal resources." Guo Kai said with a smile. He finally found a suitable place to expand Zhao's territory.

Qin State, Xianyang.

"For now, Dawan seems to be reluctant to build a railway. Their parliament seems to have such an attitude." Meng Yi said.

"It's not like, that's it." Shang Wen said, shaking his head.

"What should we do then? We have no way to solve such a problem. You must know that this requires a lot of funds. Dawan fought a war and there is not much money. The only solution is to borrow money. But they are unwilling. Borrowing, they have the recovery after the war, and in addition, they greatly suppressed the welfare of the soldiers. These." Meng Yi said to Shangwen very worried.

"This is the matter of the Dawan people. We can no longer manage the situation of the Dawan people." Shang Wen put the report of the Ministry of National Defense aside. Wang Jian’s report. Shang Wen has already seen it. Wang Jian analyzed that there is a very high possibility of a military coup in Dawan. This possibility is very high. Shangwen decided to wait for the political situation to change before making a decision. After all, without building a railway, the Qin army would not be able to expand further, and the oil problem would not be solved without expansion.

Inside the headquarters of Li Zuoche.

"Sir, our unit number no longer exists." A Captain Dawan said helplessly. Some troops have been withdrawn. Many officers and soldiers have been disbanded on the spot. They have no military pay and no welfare, which makes them very dissatisfied.

"How is your treatment?" Li Zuoche asked worriedly. He knew that in order to solve such a thing, a large amount of military expenditure would be necessary.

"No, nothing, military uniforms, even some guns have to stay, many officers and soldiers are very dissatisfied." The captain said dissatisfied. His face was full of sadness.

"The situation of the regular army is a little better than ours. Our situation here is the worst. I don't understand. We have done a lot of things to the country. It was the **** **** who gave this order. It's really wicked." The other party said dissatisfiedly.

"It's really wicked, why do you do such a thing. I really don't understand." Li Zuoche didn't understand why Dawan would do such a stupid thing.

"Your situation is very dangerous. If the military has a lot of dissatisfaction, what will they do?" Li Zuoche said.

"They will have a rebellion. Then they will quickly launch an attack on the parliament, which will cause a lot of chaos to the political situation of Dawan." Li Zuoche said worriedly.

"Forget it. Such things are no longer something we can worry about." Li Zuoche said. He has received an order to return to his country. He needs to sort out a lot of combat records and reports. Recording a series of military activities in this battle will greatly promote the style, tactics, and outcome of future battles. These are no longer what they can consider.

Inside Meng Tian's headquarters.

"Sir, if this continues, the Dawan army will have a large-scale military coup. In that case, we. There is no way to stop their situation from happening." A staff officer said worriedly.

"We are just the command headquarters, we are only commanding the allies, for the political affairs of various countries. We simply cannot do this. This is not something we can do." Meng Tian said.

"Okay. Let's discuss the record of this battle. Record what we know. In the future, our military academies will have to learn these things. With these, our military capabilities can rise rapidly. . Sorting out these conditions is what we should do well." Meng Tian said.

"This. Yes. Sir." Many staff nodded.

"We should see. The scale of the war is getting bigger and bigger. Infantry cannot leave the effective supply line. Cavalry operations require a lot of maneuverability. Such maneuverability can bring us great combat effectiveness. "Meng Tian said.

"In this battle, if the two cavalry groups were not for the outflank tactics, we would have been unable to do such a thing." Meng Tian said.

War requires a large amount of logistical supplies and operations, which are needed by infantrymen. At the same time, the blockade and assault effects of cavalry operations are also obvious.

"Also in this battle, air power has exerted great military effectiveness. Especially some technical weapons. For example, the emergence of the Zhao State airship, this weapon against the infantry and the defensive fixed fortresses of the Parthians in the encirclement. It has caused a great impact, and the use of machine guns, machine guns, and explosive weapons has greatly changed the scale of the war." Meng Tian said.

"The situation of the war has changed a lot." Meng Tian said.

The staff members recorded it one after another. But when the normal war was recorded, some Dawan officers had already gathered.

Dawan 2nd Infantry Division.

"Sir, you have seen our situation. Our casualties have exceeded 30% of the soldiers, and now, the government does not give us more funds to give them pensions, and it doesn’t matter if we don’t give them. We don’t even care about them. Now. This. This is definitely not something people do." Many officers said dissatisfiedly.

"I know this." Teacher Chen Muge said.

"However, sir, our treatment and military supplies have been reduced by more than half. Our soldiers still have many injuries. In the case of injuries, their supply food can only be drunk. Some porridge and food have been reduced by two meals from three meals a day. Didn’t this allow our soldiers to disband themselves? Such care is simply horrible.” Many officers and soldiers said with dissatisfaction.

"I know." Chen Muge still said.

"Sir." Many officers said excitedly.

"Go out. Go out." The chief of staff waved his arms and drove them out at this time. He knew that such a thing could no longer be avoided.

"Sir, I am worried if this continues," the chief of staff said.

"I know. But I can't help it. Among the military units that are being dismantled, there is the second, the 1st Infantry Division. Because our two infantry divisions have suffered a lot."

"Sir, shall we wait passively like this?" the Chief of Staff asked.

"What else?" the teacher asked.

"I think the fault lies with the parliament. They let Dawan's national interests be ignored for a little money. This is unfair to us. We have been treated unfairly, so naturally it is to do more." Speaking of long.

"This. This is the military." The division commander thought for a while and finally didn't say anything. After all, he could guess something like this, and the officers and soldiers had great opinions.
