"Yes, sir." The [-]-[-] man from Qi quickly left.
"Hurry up. Hurry up, everyone, retreat to the seaside." Ying Yu shouted loudly.They are all people who have retreated from the battlefield, and many of them have fought against the Chu army.These people are basically civilians, and they don't have many weapons, let alone how much combat experience they have.In Ying Yu's view, it was impossible for these people to fight.
On the side of the Chu army, Qi State's attack can be described as extremely fierce. These slaves have been enslaved, and their grievances are very heavy.Therefore, they were very vicious when they wiped out the Qi guerrillas.They will retaliate against the Qi people desperately, as long as they see the Qi people, they will kill them all.Women will also be killed alive.This is an extremely terrifying thing.Ying Yu just heard about it, and already felt very scary. In desperation, he had no choice but to let these people retreat to the north of Qi State by sea.Where, they may still have a new way of life to go.
"Sir, why don't we stay. Why are we retreating. We can continue to fight guerrillas," Stone asked.
"The Chu army is coming fiercely, and our losses are huge, and our military force is also small. Originally, I wanted to wait for a while to accumulate, but now it seems that there is no time at all." Ying Yu said.
"Let's retreat. The most important thing for us is to maintain our strength, and then we can consume the Chu people, not to consume them hard in the short term. The retreat is to prepare for a bigger attack in the future. Understand," Ying Yu said.
"En." Stone nodded half understanding.Then he left.
"Come on." Chu's army of slaves crazily rushed towards the position of Qi's guerrillas.
"Quick. Gather those with muskets. Aim. Listen to my orders." A Qi guerrilla officer shouted loudly.Soldiers with muskets quickly gathered.They went into aiming mode.
"Aim. Shoot." The officer shouted loudly.
"Bang bang bang bang." Fierce gunshots rang out quickly.The Chu soldiers who rushed to the front were shot and killed mercilessly.
"Second round." The officer shouted loudly.
"Bang bang bang." Then there was another round of violent shooting.
"Retreat." The chief shouted loudly.After the two rounds of shooting, they retreated quickly. Behind them, they had a platoon of soldiers waiting for them as a support.Then the Chu army charged again.They will also encounter such shooting.The Qi guerrillas retreated by shooting round after round in this way.

"There are more and more of these commodities. If we can't sell them, our situation will be difficult." A Korean businessman said looking at the pile of goods.
"Our ship is empty. But if these things cannot be sold, the consequences will be unimaginable, unimaginable." The Korean businessman said persistently.
"I don't know, what does General Tian think?" Shang Wen asked Tian Heng who was beside him.
"We are short of these things in Qi. For example, we lack too much food. There are more materials that can be shipped to us. It's just." Looking at the pile of goods, Tian Heng thought in his heart Very happy, but not satisfied.
"It's just that we don't have money." Shang Wen said this key question.
"Talk this way." Shang Wen thought that some of the following words were private conversations.
"The current situation is that merchants need to transport these goods to Qin State, so that they can get the money they want. In other words, Qin State is the buyer and they are the seller. The buyer cannot find the seller. Buying and selling will naturally fail." Shang Wen said.
"Speaking of which, isn't this a ready-made opportunity?" Shang Wen said.
"Sir, what you mean is that Qi State can use taxation or our rights as a guarantee, so that we can get the goods, and after selling all these goods to Qin State, we can give the other party part of the payment and profits. It is." Tian Heng said.
"By the way. This is a costless business. If Qi State is unable to do so, Qi State can outsource these businesses, such as Korean businessmen and businessmen from other countries." Shang Wen said.
"Good advice, sir." Tian Heng said excitedly.
"In this way, Qi State can have taxes and money to enter, and Qi State can rise again." Tian Heng said excitedly.He seemed to see a very broad prospect.
"En. There is one more thing that needs your attention." Shang Wen said.
"What's the matter?" Tian Heng cupped his hands and said.
"It's the issue of taxation. Taxation is a big issue." Shang Wen said while lowering his head and rubbing his feet back and forth.In fact, he didn't know if Tian Heng could accept this truth.I don't know if the current state of Qi can withstand such a test.
"You also know that Qin's tax is very low, only 5.00%. This is an important opportunity brought by Qin's current rapid development, but the difficulties at the beginning are far beyond your imagination." Shang Wen said.
"If the taxation problem is not resolved, it will be difficult to proceed with anything. Why is there such a big riot in Qi State? What is the reason? It is because King Qi launched continuous wars, and the wars consumed a lot of financial resources. Qi State's financial resources are exhausted. So we began to recruit from ordinary people, and the war got bigger and bigger, longer and longer, and the burden on the people became bigger and bigger, which finally led to such a big disaster.” Shang Wen said.
"The state of Qin also tried its best to avoid such things, so we established a law to let everyone know the tax rate of the state of Qin. Then recruit some capable ministers and officials to collect taxes. The local tax is known to the public and strictly enforced by the officials. , in order to ensure that there will be no mistakes in any link in the middle." Shang Wen said.
"For example, you collect one-third of the tax. When it reaches the people, the tax is actually as high as two-thirds. The people can barely maintain such a high tax. When you increase the tax by two-thirds At that time, the people have nothing left. They can only get up and knock you down. Otherwise, they themselves will starve to death. Such endings abound. I hope General Tian can take care of himself." Shang Wen said.
"En." Tian Heng nodded.
"Please teach me, sir." Tian Heng saluted respectfully after listening to Shang Wen's words, and asked Shang Wen to finish some specific opinions.
"Well. This. I can't teach you. You can only figure it out for yourself. You can look at South Korea. The situation in South Korea was not as good as your Qi country at the beginning. Now, South Korea's strength has surpassed your Qi country, and it has grown rapidly. situation." Shang Wen said.
"En." Tian Heng nodded.Approved Shang Wen's view.
"How South Korea can do this, I think it has something to do with their open mind, continuous active learning, and aggressiveness. At present, King Qi has lost his aggressiveness. Not only King Qi, but also the king of Qi. Even some aristocratic ministers of Qi State have lost such determination. And you, General Tian." Shang Wen turned back and said.
"What we are facing is a dilapidated state of Qi. If we can let go of everything with a broad mind at this time, and boldly learn and do it, we will naturally know how to do it." Shang Wen said.
"To be honest, Qin also has this problem," Shang Wen said.
"Some people say that my policies in Qin State are equivalent to Qin State's second reform." Shang Wen said with two fingers stretched out.
"Although the resistance to the second reform does not seem to be very great, in fact, these factors still exist. My approach is to cultivate a new force to promote the reform. The reform is not the behavior of one person, but history behavior." Shangwen said from a historical perspective.
"If the reform is carried out, there will be a lot of resistance. Because everyone is against you. And if you want to implement the reform, you will face unprecedented resistance. Only when you let many people follow you can you have such a broad prospect Only then will there be more space to display it." Shang Wen said.
"Follow me?" Tian Heng still didn't understand.
"Let's give an example." Shangwen thought for a while.
"I noticed South Korea," Shang Wen said.
"The Queen of Korea and I are good friends," Shang Wen said.
"I know a little bit about the situation in South Korea." Shang Wen continued.
"South Korea seized the Three Powers in the form of a mutiny at the beginning." Shang Wen said.
"After the coup, South Korea began to implement policies that benefit the people. Such as reducing taxes, allowing land annexation and other measures, in fact, it is to reduce the power of the Korean nobles and then foster new support forces. These forces are civilians. .They have merchants, craftsmen, etc. They get a lot of benefits, even rich people, they will get a lot of land. And all kinds of goods. And the power of the nobles is weakened. They will oppose , In this way, it becomes two opposing parties. The two sides have formed conflicts on some issues. And this contradiction is the root of the problem. As a civilian force, it supports the Queen of Korea, so the Queen can come to power, because the other party The power is great." Shang Wen said.

"En." Tian Heng nodded thoughtfully.
"Korea's businessmen, craftsmen, and farmers all support the Queen of Korea. Korea naturally has a rising power. On the contrary, the aristocrats began to decline as a result of being hit." Shang Wen gestured with his hand.
"Sir, do you mean that nobles must be defeated?" Tian Heng asked.
"It doesn't have to be a blow, it's just some of the means." Shang Wen said.
"Currently, the Qi State has no strength to rely on, so you can develop very well. There are many difficulties in development, and the power of the nobles will hinder you from developing some things. In this way, Qi State can make a difference , if Qi State wants to make a big difference, it must make some major adjustments in some aspects." Shang Wen said.
"En. At the same time, it is bound to be an enemy of some forces." Tian Heng said.
"Yes." Shang Wen said.
