"The Qi people are rushing over." Some soldiers of the Chu army shouted loudly after stretching out their heads to see the situation.The soldiers of the Chu army raised their guns one after another and began to aim.

"The distance is still a bit too far." A Chu army officer said after looking at the distance of the Qi people.

"Kill it." The people of Qi still marched forward regardless of their own safety.

"Boom." The small-caliber artillery fired continuously.They loaded solid shells and directly bombarded the ranks of the Qi people.

"Ah." There was a scream.A bloody road was opened up in the Qi people's team.The people of the Qi State were staggered by the direct bombardment, their internal organs were bombarded everywhere, and the bombardment of the small-caliber artillery caused a lot of casualties to the people of the Qi State.The Qi people's team was instantly sluggish.Their offensive paradox temporarily stalled.But still stop attacking.

"Come on." The bloody bombardment did not stop the Qi people, and the soldiers of the Chu army were amazed.

"Come on." The Qi people continued to attack.

"The distance is very close." The Chu army officer shouted loudly.

"Get up. Aim and shoot." The Chu army officer shouted loudly at this time.Outside the trench, there were a lot of shouts from the state of Qi, which made the soldiers of the Chu army a little flustered, but the officers forced the soldiers of the Chu army to shoot.

"Bang. Bang, bang." The soldiers of the Chu army quickly stretched out their heads, aiming and shooting.

With a burst of shooting like lightning and thunder, the Qi people were knocked down, and the Chu army fired.The losses of the Qi people increased rapidly. Under such circumstances, it is obviously not very wise to continue to attack.In addition, the Chu army musketeers continued to shoot.Under the intensive killing, the Qi people retreated naturally, even if the chief personally supervised the battle, they did not stop Zhuo Bing from retreating spontaneously.

Qin's Western Regions.

"Da da da." In a telegraph carriage, a telegraph operator was receiving the content of the telegram from Xianyang.On the side, King Qin carefully read the telegram.And Meng Tian supervised the translators to translate as soon as possible.The length of this telegram is quite long, and the telegraph personnel have already sat here for more than two full diagonals.King Qin's tea has been changed several times.King Qin patiently looked at the contents of the recently translated telegram.The contents of this telegram came from Xianyang.It was Meng Yi who sent it to King Qin explaining the smuggling trade situation.

In the telegram, Meng Yi explained very clearly the reasons for the smuggling trade, as well as the next steps to solve the problem, methods and so on.This telegram dissected the incident in great detail. In this telegram, Meng Yi tried his best to excuse the smuggling trade and asked to take advantage of the trend in order to reduce Qin's losses.This point made King Qin a little unsure. What King Qin was worried about was the laws and regulations of Qin.What Meng Yi is worried about is that because of the emphasis on law and discipline, the development of the situation in Qin State will be unfavorable.

"Meng Tian. What do you think?" King Qin handed the telegram that he had just read to Meng Tian, ​​and Meng Tian carefully took the telegram to check.King Qin waited patiently for Meng Tian's own opinion.

"I believe that the prime minister's telegram is of great significance for Qin to stabilize the border states." Meng Tian said in a low voice after reading it.Because he didn't know what attitude King Qin had, but judging from the rampant smuggling trade, Meng Tian believed that King Qin's attitude was a bit opposed, but if you look at the overall situation.The king of Qin also had to consider the safety of Qin's borders. If the borders were damaged, the Western Regions captured by Qin would be lost.

"Oh. Tell me." King Qin said at this time.

"The current situation in the border states is indeed not optimistic. Although the towns we passed along the way are relatively prosperous, most of these prosperity are related to the smuggling trade in the border states of Qin. The prime minister mentioned it in the telegram. Several other border states of Qin There are such smuggling situations in several other border states." Meng Tian said.

"The prime minister is right in what he said in the telegram. Only when these border states of Qin State stabilize and develop prosperously, can Qin State have a stable expansion of territory, and Qin State can concentrate on the feat of unifying the world. " Meng Tian said.

"But now, several border states of Qin State are extremely unstable. This is not a good thing for Qin State. Because only these states are stable. Our unanimous foreign policy. The unstable factors come from them These states are all immigrants from the six countries. Why did the six countries immigrate? It is to make my Qin country strong and prosperous. That is to say, the people are rich." Meng Tian said.

"Smuggling is for the benefit of the people. If there is no profit, there is no plan for smuggling. At present, if Qin wants to stabilize these states, it must let these states develop and prosper. Only these states can allow the people to have the power to expand abroad. .” Meng Tian said.

"En. Besides, the tribes in these prefectures and small states in the Western Regions can do business and trade, and the Qin State can expand its influence from it. At the same time, it can also benefit from taxation. It can also solve the disadvantages of the Qin State's market. Is it?" Qin Wang asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Meng Tian replied.

"En. The widow understands. It seems that Meng Yi has considered it very carefully, and the widow approved it." King Qin thought it over at this time.In other words, if Qin wants to advance eastward, it must stabilize the situation in the west and north.Otherwise, Qin will face the danger of multiple fronts.And how to stabilize the west and north.It is necessary to find a way to make these areas prosperous.How to prosper.Obviously, it is no longer possible to rely on the development of agriculture to expand more farms and pastures in the west and north.Because these solved the problem of the people of Qin not being hungry, but they could not solve the problem of the prosperity and development of the border states of Qin.To solve this problem, there is only one way, and that is to open the treaty ports and encourage trade. Only by opening up trade can the border states of Qin State develop. After the development, Qin State can also extract taxes from them, and then expand fiscal revenue. It will also allow the Guanzhong area to further develop.Clearly, this is the big picture.It can only be seen clearly when standing at a high enough height.It was from such a height that the King of Qin understood the state of Qin and agreed to Meng Tian's idea.

"So, about the cooperation with South Korea?" Qin Wang then asked.

"This, I still don't understand?" Meng Tian replied.

"The development paths of the two countries are different, so naturally there are differences. How Qin can better develop with South Korea still needs the planning of the prime minister." Meng Tian replied truthfully.

"En." King Qin nodded, regarding the issue of South Korea, King Qin believed that Meng Yi was very considerate.Because judging from the current situation.It is true that there is no necessary possibility for the two countries to form an alliance, but the two countries will cooperate on certain projects, and the King of Qin has not yet made a clear certainty, because the King of Qin still does not know where the two economies can cooperate.If they cooperate, it will be beneficial to Qin State, but South Korea will be unfavorable.This made King Qin a little confused, so King Qin consulted Meng Tian for his opinion, but Meng Tian is a general, and he himself doesn't know much about economic matters.In this way, King Qin has no more reference.However, this matter can be regarded as an important step.

"It's a cannon, the cannon we ordered." On a colony in the south of Chu State.The Chu people who unloaded the goods on the shore shouted loudly.

"It's the cannon. The cannon we ordered has arrived." The Chu people shouted happily.These cannons were ordered by them, and those merchant ships successfully arrived at the port of the southern colony of Chu State after avoiding the attack of the storm and the harassment of pirates. The people of Chu State who came to unload the goods stepped forward one after another. Check out their artillery.Colonies are only armed with muskets, and artillery is only available on merchant ships, so the defense of the colonies is relatively weak.After the establishment of a self-government in the colony, the government decided to strengthen its own defenses to resist the increasingly bad pirate harassment.At the same time arm the local militia.After these militias are strengthened by artillery, they can develop further inland.

As the number of colonies increases, the use of colonial land begins to become tense, which is very detrimental to local economic development, but the local land is controlled by the indigenous people. Although the colonial authorities can further expand the land, if you want In the case of expanding the land, relying on the militiamen with muskets in the colonies will not be able to win the initiative at all. Only with cannons can the situation be won.So, the colonies massively imported artillery to arm themselves.Only artillery can pacify those local natives.

"With these cannons, those natives can completely pacify us. The current colony is only on the coast, and the inland along the coastline is only a dozen miles deep. Only when you go deep into the inland can you find minerals. Next, the colony must rely on Mining is the only way to develop the economy." The chief elected by the colony said to his militia captain.

"Then, in the next step, we will continue to attack the local aborigines," said the militia captain.

"Yes, the next step is to do that," said the Colonial Prefect.

"However, in this way, we need a large number of soldiers. What if these soldiers fail in the battle?" the militia captain said worriedly.

"No but," said the Colonial Prefect.

"The colony needs land to plant some cash crops for profit, and a large amount of minerals to be excavated. These need to be developed in depth. Do you know?" the local governor said.

"Do you know how the people of Qin developed?" the magistrate asked.

"I don't know," said the militia captain.

"The people of Qin developed in this way. Their land has expanded a lot. Look at us, the land area is too small." The colonial chief said.

"We are just by the sea, and there is nothing by the sea. Only by developing inland can our colony grow, understand?" said the colony chief.

"Yes, sir," said the militia captain.With the growth of Chu's overseas colonies.The development space of the colony is getting smaller and smaller. On the contrary, their opponents, the local aborigines, occupy a large amount of land, which is rich in agricultural resources and rich in mineral resources.Ever since, the colony decided to develop inland.These are the spontaneous decisions of the local governors.They saw their own development path from Qin, but the actual needs of the colonies still need further development.

After the Colonial Governor left.The militia captain shook his head helplessly.

"Crazy. Completely crazy. If this continues, our situation will not be good." The captain of the militia is extremely pessimistic about expansion, because the people in the colony are unwilling to fight, and after a round of bloody battles between the colony and the local aborigines .Both hairs are temporarily in a state of balance.Not only that.The colony is also actively developing. In addition to developing agriculture, the colony is also developing handicrafts. On the one hand, the local aborigines need a lot of handmade products to meet their needs.The requirements for territory do not seem to be so strong. In addition, some new immigrants from some colonies are not very strong about expansion. What they want is a stable residence, not a strange place just arrived. Start desperately.

Therefore, the militia captain was extremely pessimistic about the expansion of the colony.But the colonial magistrate was too anxious.

"How's the battle on the front line?" Ying Yu led his troops to move to the mountainous area with favorable terrain, and more and more guerrillas participated in the offensive operations, and Ying Yu's approach seemed very conservative.In this situation.Many people complained to Ying Yu, they didn't understand why their chief became timid at this time.

"I don't know." Stone said in a low mood.

"What's wrong?" Ying Yu immediately asked loudly.

"Others are attacking, why do we have to retreat, I don't know, is the officer timid or afraid?" Shito complained.

"Are you angry, kid?" Ying Yu said to Shi Shi with a smile.

"Don't dare, we can only obey our chief's own decision." Shitou said unconvinced.

"I know you're not convinced, kid. Knowing the current situation, the guerrillas are attacking the camp of the Chu army, but we are constantly retreating." Ying Yu said.

"I also want to attack, but the current situation is that we are too optimistic." Ying Yu said.

"It took us only one or two months from the development of guerrillas to the current situation. However, we have grown from more than 100 people to more than 2000 people today. The number has increased a lot. But don't forget. Our What is the real combat power?" Ying Yu said.

"We are not yet capable of confronting the Chu army. The Chu army has regular infantry, artillery, and chariot soldiers. But our infantry is still unable to hold a gun. Most of the weapons are still very backward. The quality of the officers is also very poor. Not good enough." Ying Yu said.

"We can command a company to fight. We can make ambushes, but the Chu army can wipe out our guerrilla operations. They can fight with thousands of people at the same time, but we." Ying Yu shook his head and said.Obviously, guerrillas do not yet have such capabilities.

"So, now, tell me, how is the guerrilla attack going?" Ying Yu asked.

"This." Stone scratched his head at this moment.
