Soon the two of them followed Zhongzhi to a conference room in the Southern Xinjiang Command.The security outside is very strict.

"Drink tea." The lieutenant colonel ordered his soldiers to bring three cups of tea, and the lieutenant colonel picked up a cup and drank it.He felt a little heavy in his head, which was because of drinking, and now he needed tea to clear his mind.

"My name is Chen Zhong. I'm a staff officer here." The lieutenant colonel introduced.

"Drink tea." Chen Zhong said to the two.

"How do you know Major Bai Litt?" The lieutenant colonel asked curiously.

"We are businessmen. Major Bai Litt is in charge of the defense of our area. We got to know Major Bai Litt because of business." Qin Guoren said.

"What business do you do?" the lieutenant colonel asked at this time.

"This." The Qin businessman looked at the lieutenant colonel.

"Don't worry, I don't have to say anything." The lieutenant colonel persuaded the other party to come.

"Okay, sir, I, we are in the arms business, because we need a lot of guns, shells and so on for smuggling. These things are profitable businesses for us, but these things are detailed in the federal law. export license, but the military has no right to verify these things. Therefore, we got to know Major Bai Litt." The Qin businessman explained and nodded.express understanding.He is well aware that some border areas are true, especially in areas with special defenses, and such things often happen.Here in the Western Regions, the arms smuggling business is the most profitable business. Those Western Regions people always want to transfer the powerful things of the Qin people to other places to make a lot of money, and the Qin people have a lot of cheap firearms, and these firearms give the Western Regions people very powerful taro , so people in the Western Regions like this weapon very much.

Where there is demand, there is supply.In this way, the arms business will expand.A large number of arms dealers sell their weapons exclusively to these people from the Western Regions, but most of them lack formal certificates, which require the approval of the Ministry of National Defense, and a lot of factory serial numbers to be filled in. It is extremely difficult to register these procedures cumbersome.This is Xuzhou.No one is willing to spend a lot of time filling in these things. The correct way is to transport the muskets privately. It is precisely because it is illegal to do so. These businessmen like to bribe those border officers.Border officers also hope to have some income ⊥ In this way, businessmen and military officers have known each other and discovered such a thing a long time ago.But he found that no one reported this matter.It was only later that he realized that everyone knew about such a thing, and no one reported it, because if they did, everyone would be in trouble to death.

"What is this Western Region businessman doing here?" Chen Zhong asked.

"He is my partner." The Qin businessman explained.

"Britt told me that you have an important piece of information. If the information is useful to us, we will give you a lot of rewards." Chen Zhong said.

"Yes. Yes." The Qin businessman said.

"Let's talk. Tell him what you saw and heard." The merchant from Qin State said to the merchant from the Western Regions.The merchants from the Western Regions were a little nervous.

"It's okay, tell me. If what you said is useful, I think we will give you some rewards." Chen Zhong said while drinking tea.

The businessman from the Western Regions looked at Lieutenant Colonel Qin Jun, and he was still a little nervous. The businessman who took care of him was beside him, but he was still a little nervous.

"Have a cup of tea." The Qin businessman said.

"Drink tea. Drink tea." Chen Zhong motioned.Speaking of the Qin businessman putting the teacup in the hands of the three Western Regions, the Western Region businessman looked at Chen Zhong nervously, and it took about seven or eight minutes before the Western Region businessman calmed down.

Chen Zhong waited patiently.Had two cups of tea.The drunkenness slowly subsided.

"I am, I am in the arms business. I bought a large number of guns from you to buy Yuezhi people and Wusun people on the plateau." The merchant from the Western Regions said and nodded.

"The sales of muskets became popular all of a sudden. It's not just us people in the Western Regions who need muskets. The Yuezhi people and Wusun people also need muskets, and they need a lot of muskets. It's just that there were few at first, but now there are many. They buy from us in bulk, and they use gold when they trade with us. It’s just that we don’t know where the gold comes from. But they do use gold to trade.” Western Region merchants emphasized.

Agent Chen Zhong nodded.Signal the other person to continue talking.

"Recently I bought some artillery. This artillery is very powerful. After firing, it shocked many people. Those people need a lot of artillery, so I imported a lot of artillery from Qin to buy those people. However, the price of these artillery is very high. It's expensive, and the transaction requires a lot of money," said the Western Region businessman.

"Therefore, I decided to sell them separately, because I was afraid of being ambushed by them, which would be very disadvantageous to me." The merchant from the Western Regions said.After selling a large number of guns to the other party, the other party needs another more powerful weapon. This weapon is the cannon, but the price of the cannon is very high, and the amount of gold required is also very large. These are unbearable for ordinary people. s price.

Therefore, the object of the transaction is generally specific.

"That's it. One of our commercial teams was ambushed by the other party. Fortunately, we didn't lose much. Later, I found someone to investigate this matter. It turned out that their gold was exhausted, so they had to The method of robbing is used, and I learned one thing, that is, their background may have the background of the army." Said the businessman in the Western Regions.Hearing this, Chen Zhong frowned. If this matter was true, then the problem would be even more serious.

"What do they want these cannons for, do you know?" Chen Zhong asked at this time.

"Well, one thing I learned is that they want to develop southward, because this kind of weapon is extremely powerful. There is a country in the south that has powerful weapons made of elephants. Few people can defeat those elephant troops." The merchant from the Western Regions said. time to speak.

"But guns, and terrible cannons, these weapons can pose a great threat to those elephants. So they want to buy a lot of cannons from us, but, they are too hateful. They want to take the cannons from me , I want to get help from the Qin government. Teach these Yuezhi people and Wusun people who don't know how powerful they are." Said the Western Region businessman angrily.

"You mean, they bought guns, and the guns were not used to deal with us, but to develop southward?" Chen Zhong asked at this time.

"Yes⊥that's the case. I have changed the object of business. The business of Anxi is much easier than theirs." At this time, the Western Regions businessman said.

"En." Chen Zhong nodded.

"Is there anything else?" Chen Zhong asked the Qin businessman at this time.

"No more. That's what he wanted to say. I also got the news from him." The businessman from Qin State said.

"Do you want to get help from the people of Qin?" Chen Zhong asked at this time.

"Yes. We really need Qin people to teach those Yuezhi people and Wusun people a lesson." Said the merchant from the Western Regions.

"Well. You continue to do your business. We need to evaluate how much this news will affect us. We also hope that you can continue to provide relevant information. If necessary, I think we may take some measures." Chen Zhong said.

Then Chen Zhong sent the other party away.And Chen Zhong quickly ran to the staff department.He is in charge of intelligence collection by the staff department, and he has received too much information from these businessmen recently.But a lot of information was not of much use. At that time, the businessman from the Western Regions brought important information.

"You mean, the artillery we sold has gone to the Yuezhi people and Wusun people who fled to the western plateau. But these Yuezhi people and Wusun people dare not fight with us, they decided to attack south " Chen Zhong analyzed the information he got and said.

"What do you mean?" the chief of staff asked Chen Zhong.

"My idea is that these Wusun people and Yuezhi people may launch a military operation. People from the Western Regions have suffered a lot from doing business with these people. If we can do business with them in the name of Qin, I will Think, we can get greater benefits. In addition, we can send military observers to carry out diplomatic activities. Understand the situation, anyway, these people are not our Qin people, we beat them. The important thing is that we want to understand other aspects Especially to the south, what is the area to the south?" Chen Zhong said.

"En." The chief of staff thought for a while.

"This issue is very important, and it is also a very important piece of information." The chief of staff thought for a while and said.

"En. You sort it out and report it to the staff and the Ministry of Defense. Maybe they want to see such a report." The chief of staff said to Chen Zhong.

"Yes, officer." Chen Zhong nodded excitedly.He knew that if the higher authorities paid attention to this situation, there would be new trends in the Western Regions.

The report was quickly sent to Xianyang, Qin State.

"This report is very interesting, but it doesn't mean much to us. The Qin army is currently on the defensive, and it is impossible to send troops to this place." Wang Jian said after reading it.

"If it is given to the Ministry of National Defense." Yang Duanhe looked at Wang Jian and arrived.

"They are useful, but not us." Wang Jian said.

"The prime minister's office has been emphasizing the development of the Western Regions, the development of the Western Regions, and the development of the Western Regions market. I think that now they have sold arms and weapons to these people, and these people dare not fight with us Qin people. They can only develop in the south. The south has We really don't know what kind of place it is. I think it's still possible to develop in that direction. In this way, we can develop in that direction when we are free." Wang Jian said.

"Give it to the Ministry of National Defense and see how they do it." Wang Jian said.

"Well, it's easy to handle." Yang Duanhe said.

within the Ministry of Defense.

"I think it's necessary to discuss the recent situation with the prime minister." Wei Liao said.

"Well. I also think so. The latest intelligence is very complicated. Many situations are intertwined with politics, diplomacy, and military affairs. If these issues cannot be properly handled, it will be difficult to judge the security situation in these areas. It will cause great harm to our next move." Meng Tian said worriedly.

"En. I just don't know what the prime minister will think." Wei Liao said.

"Entire, I think it's better to let him take a look. Recently, the prime minister has been competing with Yang Dong more frequently. If the army's problem can be solved well, I think the prime minister also hopes to get the support of the military. If the old can be alleviated The military's question is very beneficial to the prime minister's competition for Asia." Meng Tian suggested.

"En. I think it's okay, that's it. First sort out this report and pass it to the prime minister, so that the prime minister can think about the countermeasures in a relaxed manner. Then discuss with us a good strategy to solve this problem, not only Qin Guo Domestically, we must also consider the main areas of the Qin State in the future." Wei Liao said.
