The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Qin's strategic focus was determined for a while. It is mainly Shang Wen who advocated cutting military expenditures. To reduce government expenditure and increase social infrastructure construction. But Qin's military still cannot completely give up.

In particular, the media exposed the Baihe incident in which Qin was wiped out in the north by nearly two hundred people. Because the location where the bones were found was close to the Baihe River at the time of the incident, Qin State named a certain river in the north. So it is called the White River Incident.

The exposure of the Baihe incident caused Qin to reconsider the threat from the north. Although measured from the map, it is impossible for the Huns to go south on a large scale. The Huns are about 3,000 miles away from Xianyang in the Qin State. This distance is enough to keep Qin's capital safe. However, after all, the Huns had evil deeds beforehand, and Qin was unwilling to see his neighbors full of malice. In short, under the influence of successive victories abroad, the people of Qin have formed a concept. That is, either be a weak neighbor. This neighbor is what Qin Guo wants to clean up, and he will take care of Qin's unreasonable demands.

Either it will be completely extinct by Qin State. This is Qin's concept of foreign warfare. This concept is extremely domineering and uncompromising. Qin's belligerence was thoroughly aroused. Because war is good for everyone.

"Our country has deployed troops to the west twice. The recent Baihe incident shows that the Huns are re-emerging and they will again intend to go south. It is reported that our country's military strength in the north is very limited. The Qin army deployed more than 30,000 regular troops in the north. Zhao Jun, who is less than 50,000 in number. This situation worries our people." A reporter said in a press release.

"Excuse me, can the regular army of more than 30,000 people guarantee to prevent the Huns from going south?" The reporters questioned Wang Jian, the chief of the general staff. And Wang Jian's answer is yes.

"Of course not." Wang Jian replied.

"The Huns come and go without a trace. We don't have a specific defensive line in the north to defend them from going south. But instead of defending, it is better to increase troops to eliminate them completely. I think so." Wang Jian said directly. The reporters quickly took down what Wang Jian said.

The newspapers that followed began to figure out what Wang Jian meant.

"The chief of the general staff intends to increase troops to the north. Completely eradicate the great disaster of the northern Huns." The title reads. In this way, Wang Jian meant to use the north. For this reason, Meng Tian from the north began a meeting after learning of this news to discuss how to innovate tactics.

As for the previous train strategy, Meng Tian believes that it is still necessary. After all, this is based on civil infrastructure, and there are so many railway lines under construction in Qin. This is no problem.

For new tactical issues. There are many proposals, for example, to focus on the transportation network. In particular, it emphasizes mobile operations. The transportation network relies on the highway network to divide the northern grassland piece by piece again. Then build defense points. Auxiliary mobile defense. In the end, all the Huns in the highway network were eliminated, one piece after another, one piece after another. There is actually not much innovation in this kind of tactics. But no one knows how effective it is. But these are all built on the basis that the Qin Army has in the north. As for the future, these troops stationed in the north for a long time are also unclear.

In comparison, the Xianyang staff was somewhat innovative, and Wang Jian’s publicity in the media made the Qin army bound to increase its troops in the north. The White River incident and the statement of the Chief of Staff are enough to determine the strategy.

That was what King Qin meant. There was already a huge market for that mainland policy. In comparison, the interest in the ocean is not great. Coal and iron ore on land have just begun, and Qin’s growing steel demand has stimulated this demand. Especially in the north, coal and iron ore are concentrated, which creates a kind of inertial thinking. Then the grassland where the Huns gather must have a large number of coal and iron ore. It is this kind of inertial thinking that promotes the prevalence of this mainland policy.

It can be said that the rise of the mainland policy is an industrial civilization, especially steel production as a representative of civilization. The social demand of iron and steel will surely make Qin go north. This is the inevitable choice of Qin. in contrast. Shangwen's marine demand is not so big yet. Or the potential ocean demand pattern has not yet been fully revealed. Shangwen’s ocean policy has a potential consideration, which is oil, not coal, and steel. However, the places where Qin State uses fuel are mainly concentrated in the Guanzhong area. The oil from the north of Qin State and the shallow oil layer from Qi State are enough to support the usage of motor vehicles in Guanzhong area.

In other regions, especially the newly built prefectures in Qin State, a large amount of animal power is still used as a means of transportation. Even trains use coal instead of diesel. In this way, the importance of ocean transportation is far less attractive than the northern land. Under such circumstances, the northern land policy began to be finalized. There is no big market for marine policy for the time being.

However, Shang Wen maintains that the coming year will still be a little trouble. And on the grounds of reducing military expenditures, the army is required to reorganize. This means that the army is required not to use a large-scale army, but to use a new army and equipped with new weapons to attack the Huns. This is also in line with the characteristics of innovative tactics. Because, at this time, the Huns had changed the previous direct-impact combat method of the large corps and changed it to wolf pack tactics and guerrilla operations. As a result, the Huns' fighting methods became more and more flexible, while the Qin army's fighting methods seemed a little dull and conservative. Even with the use of flexible tactics like the cavalry, the cavalry is a systematic search. At the same time, the Huns used the grassland combat advantages to conceal their own characteristics as much as possible. For a while, the Qin army showed signs that it was difficult to cope with. Although these still exist in the report. But this point has already been noticed by the Qin Army staff.

Just when Qin's attention gradually shifted to the north. Qin's flight test site is testing a new type of aircraft. This is the early helicopter.

The emergence of helicopters is not accidental. With the popularization of propeller technology, the folks have also imitated them, especially a kind of bamboo dragonfly toy from Qi State. This toy is actually a kind of experimental product of propeller. An extremely accidental child became a toy, and then this toy immediately spread back to the State of Qin. Inspired by this, Qin scientists began to notice another mystery of the bamboo dragonfly, hovering, moving forward, and flying backwards. If you use this as an aircraft. It must be a brand new aircraft.
