The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 726: Win over the navy

Even Qin's meteorological experts could not explain what happened to the weather in Yan State. Qin's meteorology still stayed on the basis of meteorological data observation. Due to the restriction of geographic location surveys and the supplementary relationship of geographic data.

If Qin wants to understand the entire weather system, he needs to set up different meteorological observation stations in different geographical locations. For example, in the Siberian high pressure zone, which has the greatest impact in winter, Qin must send some meteorological personnel to establish meteorological observation stations in Siberia. There is still under the control of the Huns. It is impossible for the State of Qin to set up a weather observation station there. Another example is to observe the warm and humid air currents in the south. The State of Qin appears to be even more distant, and there is no overseas colony in the State of Qin. Not to mention weather observations.

The development of meteorology is first established on the basis of geographical knowledge. Although, especially in terms of global knowledge, Qin Guo learned the fact that the earth is round by observing other stars through an astronomical telescope. For example, the moon and Mars are two major stars. But the actual situation is still not corroborated. This kind of corroboration still lacks strong evidence to prove it.

For this reason, Qin’s National Science and Technology Award can only temporarily award the Geographical Award to geologists, while the category of Geographical Discovery can only be temporarily shelved.

However, the commercial trade activities of the Qin and Chu countries are proceeding smoothly through the Yangtze River trade. Qin's inland water transport industry is developing rapidly.

A large number of shipyards have been established in Qin’s southern Yangtze River Jiangbei Wharf, from wood to iron armored and steel armored ships. From ship repairs to cargo unloading, warehouse storage, and cargo re-circulation, there are related industries for development.

"There are so many kinds of commodities from Chu. But the most scarce thing in Qin is not raw materials. It is a large number of slaves. These slaves come from the Yue people region in the south of Chu. The natives of the Yue people live in the south. And the Chu country. Like the merchants of the Qin State, the merchants in China set up a large number of mercenaries who used muskets and weapons to capture them, and then gathered them and transported them to the State of Qin."

"These Vietnamese natives will then be transported to the dock. First, they will be washed in groups of stripped clothes. The cold winter makes these southern natives feel a little scared. They panicked watching the Qin people disinfect and spray these with water. Disinfect water, (Qin people use hydrogen peroxide for disinfection.) Then these slaves were detained in cages. Chu merchants funded the construction of a slave trading platform on Qin's wharf."

"These slaves are painted with various signs, usually according to their physique and gender. Qin slave traders buy these slaves from Chu merchants at relatively low prices, and then transfer them to railway construction sites or Taking water transport into the land of Bashu, the farms there need a lot of slave labor."

This is an unpublished article in the "Businessmen's Guide" of Qin's economic magazine. It can be seen from this article that Chu's economy has begun to take the initiative to move closer to Qin's economic needs. Chu State not only provides a lot of cheap raw materials. At the same time, it also began to actively participate in the labor force. Participating in the provision of cheap labor means that after Qin, Zhao, Yan, and South Korea, the fifth country Chu also participates. The slave trade expanded in this way, and the slave trade issue will play a very important role in the subsequent development as the economic situation of various countries unfolds. For this reason, China's internal war has expanded overseas, involving a large number of overseas countries investing in it. The scale of the war continues to escalate.

But now, Chu's naval forces must first develop.

"I'm General Xiang Yan, the commander-in-chief of the Chu State Water Army." Xiang Yan shouted loudly. The water thief who was surrounded on the opposite side looked nervously at the big man standing on the bow of the ship in the distance.

"Have you heard? It's General Xiang Yan." The water pirates heard Xiang Yan. Everyone began to shake. After all, Xiang Yan's reputation is very prestigious in Chu State. Especially those who wander on the edge of life with weapons. Everyone who fought has heard of it.

"General, dangerous. If those water thieves release cold arrows, the general's life is at stake?" a general eagerly persuaded.

"Yes, General. You are the backbone of my Chu State Water Army, and the Water Army can't live without you." Another general eagerly persuaded.

"Don't say anything. I would have planned it myself. All retreat." Xiang Yan yelled.

Speaking of the generals slowly retreating, but after they gave a wink, they signaled the shield players behind to quickly step forward to block the stray bullets that might be launched. You know, at this time, the Chu State Marine Corps gradually changed into new firearms. Heavy weapons such as machine guns were also carried on the armed merchant ships at Qin's wharf. The new guns were not only equipped by the Chu army, but also by the water thieves who robbed the armed merchant ships of the Qin State. Comparing Chu's navy and water pirates, there is not much difference between the two sides. On the contrary, some water pirates were stronger than Chu's navy in some aspects.

Therefore, the concerns of the generals of the Chu State Water Army were not unreasonable, and Xiang Yan had already entered the range of fire from both sides in order to shout. With an order, the bullet can penetrate Xiang Yan's body. The distance between the two sides is only three hundred steps.

"Leave me all!" Xiang Yan roared. The shield players who had just protected Xiang Yan withdrew back. And the generals were anxious.

"Look, the shield players who just protected General Xiang have withdrawn." The water pirates craned their necks and watched. They saw the shield players retreat with their own eyes, and the target of Xiang Yan could be clearly seen in the sights of their rifles. . At this time, as long as the shooter holding the rifle among them pulls the trigger, Xiang Yan is likely to be hit.

"You are not a born water thief, but a helpless move due to the situation. I should be able to understand and appreciate your feelings." Xiang Yan said loudly.

"You are really helpless to become a water thief. What you did before. I won't know anything about it. I will give you a great opportunity now." Xiang Yan deeply knows the ingredients of the water thief on the other side. Water pirates are caused by land mergers. A large number of unemployed farmers have no choice but to become cheap labor and flow to cities, and some of them have no choice but to become water pirates. From an objective point of view, this is a historical necessity.

"You have also heard about it, and have seen it. Chu's navy is indeed inferior to Qin's navy. I am afraid that some of you have fought against them. How about Qin's navy?" Xiang Yan asked loudly.

"The iron tortoise of the Qin Navy is too difficult to fight." The water pirates said to themselves. In fact, their opponent is not the Qin State Navy, but only Qin State’s naval reserve force, Qin State Armed Merchant Ship.

"Qin State's navy is so strong, is our Chu State's Yangtze River so respectfully gifted to Qin State?"

"This general does not agree. Now the opportunity is in front of you. You don't have to be water pirates. This general allows you to join the Chu State Water Army. You and I are like brothers. Together defend the Yangtze River in Chu State." Xiang Yan shouted loudly. Tao.

This is an excellent psychological choice, water pirates live well, that is water pirates. After all, they are not as good as officers and soldiers in name. However, no matter how poor the treatment of officers and soldiers is, they are also the regular army, representing the armed forces of this country. Xiang Yan also saw this.

His idea is very simple. It is the use of recruitment techniques and peaceful means to solve the problem of water theft. The actual situation is indeed the case. If he fights, Xiang Yan is very clear about his own strength. The equipment of Chu's navy can only depend on the weapons imported by Qin to change little by little. But again, water thief can achieve this goal through robbery. The weapon equipment gap between the Chu State Navy and the Water Pirates is not very big. However, the gap in combat power and tactics between the two sides is still considerable.

Xiang Yan had clearly collected the tactical improvements and arrangements of water pirates. Water pirates would usually use sneak attacks to launch surprise attacks. Or take an ambush to attack. In the use of firearms, water thieves are more familiar with firearms than naval forces. They will use platoon gun tactics to suppress the firepower of their opponents. However, the Chu navy does not have such an arrangement. There are still some soldiers in the navy who cannot practice their weapons proficiently. The reason is simply because the bullets are precious and they are reluctant to shoot. Because of the frequent robbery, the water pirates have much more chance of shooting than regular troops.

It is based on this consideration that Xiang Yan decided to employ peaceful means to recruit these water pirates into the navy in the form of recruitment, and then mix these water pirates with the original soldiers of the navy in a certain proportion. Arrangement, Chu's navy summarized some tactics of water pirates and then formed Chu's unique navy tactics.

It can be said that Xiang Yan’s idea is very correct. There are tactical arrangements for what kind of weapons and equipment. Qin state-owned armed merchant ships, of course, use large formations for centralized defense, while Chu’s weapons and equipment clearly lag behind Qin’s weapons and equipment. For the country’s armed merchant ships, Xiang Yan wants to change this approach in the short term in response to such threats. The only way is to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers. In addition to people, combat effectiveness is tactics. And these two points, the water pirates have exactly it. Moreover, the State of Chu can also take this opportunity to eliminate a major trouble.

Afterwards, Xiang Yan told the water pirates what she wanted to say. What did Xiang Yan say. The purpose is to clarify one fact one by one. Recognize one truth. The water pirates slowly relaxed, slowly erected their guns, and listened to the general.

The whole process is like a teacher explaining a truth to a group of students. The reason for this is that if you give up the illegal undertakings they have done and join the army, you have combat effectiveness, but you need a platform to perform. Now, it is time to provide such an opportunity to give you a platform to showcase your personal talents.

"Okay. Let's go back." Xiang Yan finished speaking, and then ordered to go back. Lifting the encirclement of water pirates is a show of sincerity.
