"Yes, we have to defend this. What's so good about it. It's still difficult to breathe. If you still do that, I'm afraid it will be romantic and fatal." Old Wang said with a helpless expression.

"Let's eat the sheep first." Seeing the old Wangtou's expression.The second lieutenant said directly.At this time, the soldier had successfully cut open the belly of the sheep with a bayonet, and the internal organs of the sheep slipped out.

"Oh." The old Wangtou sighed helplessly.The same is guarding the border.The first battalion on their side guarded the border obediently.The food supplies come in canned food. Besides meat, the canned food is still meat, and occasionally there are a few canned fruits, and then I have nothing to do for a day.Staying here, the whole person panicked.

But the Second Battalion on the side made a fortune here.They started to communicate with the local Qiang herdsmen and started a business. They exchanged canned food for a large amount of sheep, because the canned meat of the Qin State also contained sheep, but the sheep of the Qiang people did not have any salt. In the case of salt, Qin's canned food is very important.The Qin people were greatly impacted by the country.The military salary of professional soldiers is the same as that of ordinary workers, but in Qin State, the working hours of workers are only four hours, especially for skilled technicians, the wages are not only higher, but the working hours are less, many people choose to work at the same time part time.As a result, the salary exceeded the salary of the officers and soldiers of the Qin State, and even an officer could not compare with the salary of a skilled worker.Moreover, in the country of Qin, many people became rich almost overnight. As long as you have the courage to find opportunities to make money, such things are possible.

In addition, this is a border area, and many people have made a lot of money by relying on their own discoveries. It can be said that gold is everywhere here.And many officers and soldiers have seen actual examples, that is, those retired soldiers quickly found a way out. They either captured a large number of slaves, or found some important minerals. In short, many people discovered this fact. And this fact directly stimulated the soldiers' nerves.

Ever since, I saw some soldiers, when they were defending their posts, they actually started business directly with the local Qiang people. Whether they were the Qiang people in the mountains or the Qiang people they came into contact with, in short, they believed that as long as they could Do business, no matter who it is.It will be all right.They exchanged a large amount of cattle and sheep with cans that can keep enough heat every month. They were enough to improve food for themselves. They began to sell a logistics person. The logistics person sent these cattle and sheep to towns farther away, where there were Butchers who specialize in slaughtering cattle and sheep can make more money.

In addition, women, slaves, and Qiang people who do business sometimes need special commodities, such as backward muskets and gunpowder.The people of Qin taught them how to use muskets through the barbed wire, and explained to them with a few simple words that they could only understand.Sometimes, they will personally kill a cow or a sheep with old-fashioned muskets.The Qiang people happily bought muskets.There are a large number of stocks of this kind of musket in Qin State.This is the result of the full production of the Qin State Arsenal.And such an old-fashioned musket, a flintlock musket.It can be sold in large quantities without the need for gun registration. The proliferation of guns makes the border of Qin State an excellent place for gun sales.A musket can be exchanged for twenty heads and six.Sometimes a few young local women are added.These things are enough to make them rich.The local military chiefs see this as an opportunity for them to make a fortune.They swear they don't want to leave the place.

The local tribal leaders of the Qiang people are also willing to exchange for these things.The muskets frightened them.And with muskets, they can be in an advantageous position in tribal conflicts, which is better than bows and arrows.

And this kind of business has happened on other lines of defense.And when such a thing happened, it stimulated the nerves of other people. Many local military chiefs actively participated in it, and the leaders of the Qiang tribes also actively participated in this kind of trade. up.Shuangfa can actively carry out trade and supply what both parties need. Canned food with enough salt can make the local Qiang people healthy and strong.Local salt is too scarce.The lack of salt can easily affect the health of a tribe's soldiers, and long-term consumption of food with too much salt will also have a great impact on the body.In this situation.The exchange of both sides is as necessary as we think.

The Qiang tribe, after obtaining the musket, can form an advantage in weapons and equipment. In this way, there is a strong guarantee for the tribe's external expansion. Those tribes with weaker strength will grow rapidly with the help of the musket Standing up, they can challenge their much stronger tribes.Then win each other.The conflicts and battles between the tribes indirectly stabilized the defense line of the Qin army. The tribal conflicts within the Qiang people made it impossible for the Qiang people to shift their attention to them.This is much more beneficial to the Qin army.

The local military chief of the Qin Army also got a little information from the materials exchanged by the two sides, but he wanted to know more details about the other party.More detailed communication is needed, but the language gap between the two sides is too great.Many soldiers of the Qin Army were not willing to learn these things at all. Only some young officers were still interested, and others knew that trading with these people could get enough benefits.

And the efforts of Qin State in this area are not enough. The people of Qin State only have a small number of diplomats, and the main direction is in the six eastern countries. Qin State does not have enough strength to understand the emerging border of Qin State. There is a great shortage of talents in this area. There are various technical schools in Qin State, but only a very few schools have diplomacy courses.With language, not enough people realize this.This is the current predicament of the Qin State, and such a predicament is really unfavorable to them.

"What does your majesty mean to say, let us focus on Chu's navy?" Zhang Liang asked after receiving Han Shu's telegram.

"Well. Yes. Prime Minister." The South Korean ambassador nodded.

"En." Zhang Liang nodded and said.

"However, it is obvious that the people of Chu State went to war on their own." Zhang Liang was still a little confused, after all, very few regular military forces of his own country went to war with the nobles, and it seemed unrealistic for the two sides to go to war.

"It sounds impossible." Zhang Liang shook his head and said.

And Meng Yi is also actively solving this problem.

"We plan to start with Chu's navy." Meng Yi summoned some military advisers and diplomats and said.

"I plan to cooperate with Chu's naval forces to contain each other. But how to cooperate specifically, I think, we should establish Qin's own colony." Meng Yi said.

Hear here.All people, you look at me, I look at you.They couldn't believe that Meng Yi would say such a thing.

"Yes. That is, we want to establish our own colony." Meng Yi said.

"However, we are not using muskets or cannons to develop our colonies, but money." Meng Yi said.

"Use gold, silver, enough loans, and various business conditions to achieve our goals." Meng Yi said.

"But, Prime Minister, does this have anything to do with our use of Chu's navy to contain the opponent?" A diplomat raised his hand and asked in puzzlement.

"Yes. Prime Minister. Do this. We really can't figure it out. We can't figure it out." Another diplomat said.

1548 Bah, it's so hard

"I think we should rely on the power of the media. If we cooperate with the Chu State Navy under the banner of the Chu State Navy, or allow the Chu State Navy to escort those merchant ships, what will the nobles do? " Meng Yi said.

"Just do it," a security consultant said worriedly.

"Is it a bit slow? Judging from the current media reports, the public's reaction to this matter seems not too optimistic." The security consultant said.

"Yes, Prime Minister." A young diplomat said worriedly.

"En." Meng Yi nodded.

"But if we make a big publicity that we got the colony. So what do you say?" Meng Yi said with a smile.The reason why Meng Yi thought this way was a suggestion made by one of his cabinet deputy ministers of finance. He believed that the current impact on the Prime Minister's Office of Qin State was too great.So, he thought that he should divert the attention of the domestic people.Once it is transferred, it will give the Prime Minister's Mansion a lot of time to solve the problems of the nobles of Chu State.

According to the information provided by Feng Jie.The State of Chu has acquired a large number of colonies overseas, but the State of Qin does not know what these colonies are like. Considering this aspect, Meng Yi decided to make some progress in this area. At least the State of Qin has its own colony. Then according to the rapid development of this colony.The Colony certainly won't cost too much.

"Maybe so, yes, but I think we should have a lot of flexibility when looking at this matter. Moreover, we have our own navy. Why don't we let our navy go out and let them develop their own colonies. Maybe this It is of great help to us. You know, it takes a lot of money to buy a colony. This is a lot of money for us." A retired military officer said.He wore civilian clothes, but pinned to his costume was a medal from the Northern Campaign.In order to show that he participated in the battle against the Huns in the north and was a qualified soldier.

"Well. If we send troops to occupy the colony, we will naturally need our own strength to complete it." Meng Yi said.

"Yes." The veteran consultant nodded.

"We can try it, let our navy prepare, and we have to participate in it." Meng Yi said.

Then several people began to formulate several plans.These proposals were then screened and submitted to relevant departments.

"How far can your ships go?" Shangwen has been investigating local economic issues these days.

"I don't know. We can go east and find some small islands. Getting there is our limit," the old man said.

"En." Shangwen nodded.

"Did your ships also get wood from the woods over there?" Shang Wen asked.

"Yes. Those woods are important raw materials for our shipbuilding. But there will not be a ship launched for several years." The old man continued.

"Yes. There are so many financial resources to build a ship." Shangwen said.

And their ships won't be too big.Shangwen thought in his heart.

After Naofumi walked around for a while, he didn't understand anything.

"What are you doing here?" Shangwen ended his understanding of the old man.But Shang Wen met Mo Li as soon as he came out.

"What are you doing here?" Shang Wen asked angrily.

"I'm afraid you'll run away." Mo Li said.

"Don't worry, I can't run away. Without you, how could I run so far. From Qin to the east coast of Qi." Shang Wen said.Then he took his notebook and left.

"What are you doing? It's mysterious." Mo Li asked after catching up.

"Investigate." Shangwen continued walking.

"It takes a lot of labor to support a lot of people with guns who don't produce," Shang Wen said.

"This is a science." Shang Wen continued.

"But this village is too backward. It's just a small fishing village. It can't do anything." Shang Wen said.

"I have nothing to do. The boat is too small and I can't go anywhere. Most importantly, I don't know where to start. This place lacks too many things." Shang Wen said with a wave of his hand.

"En. Have you been busy thinking about these things these days?" Mo Li asked.

"Yes." Shang Wen said.

"I don't even know what to do," Shang Wen said.
