Chapter 370: Disarmament drives military change

King Qin was more satisfied with such a diplomatic deployment. The reason for the satisfaction is simple. King Qin was worried about helping a neighboring country train its army. Even bigger, let it launch a coup. This made King Qin feel a little uneasy.

And when Shangwen proposed large-scale disarmament. King Qin's performance was even more intense.

"Disarmament. How can this work? Daqin has never disarmament on such a large scale. As a result, the six countries are even more unscrupulous." King Qin changed from shock to a clear attitude. Disarmament is impossible. Military strike. Has always been Qin's strengths. This strength is also a place where the six countries are extremely afraid. Qin's attack on the Six Nations. Always maintain a high pressure situation. Reduce the number of troops. This situation cannot be guaranteed. Traditional policies are deeply rooted.

"Your Majesty, disarmament is imperative." Shang Wen simply replied. Shang Wen is very wise. He knew that King Qin needed to calm down. Only when you are calm can you continue. Shangwen only said such a sentence. He was silent. He is giving King Qin time. Enough time to cool down.

King Qin didn't understand, he was the one who carried out large-scale conscription and reform. But now, it is suddenly disarmed. It took only a few months. The change turned out to be so great. King Qin himself felt that there was a problem. The silence gave King Qin a time to sober himself up. It also made King Qin begin to think about the reasons for Shangwen's method.

"Sir is silent, why is this?" Qin Wang asked. Hear the question of King Qin. Shang Wen replied.

"Please wake up the king." Shang Wen said.

"Oh. Wake up." King Qin smiled after speaking.

"Mr. Gao Yi, I have worked hard for Da Qin." King Qin suddenly woke up. Shang Wen is to keep him calm. The starting point is only for the Qin State.

"This is where the minister's duty lies." Shang Wen saw King Qin calm down. The reasons and benefits of disarmament have changed. Come one by one.

"My lord, disarmament is extremely beneficial to Da Qin. There are three reasons why."

"I Daqin issued government bonds on a large scale. These bonds have raised a lot of funds for Daqin. This is also the reason for the smooth progress of the war. But now the military expenditure far exceeds our budget. Three million gold. All of a sudden. The expenditure went to more than two hundred gold. This is still to be stopped by the minister in time. Otherwise, I will increase military expenditure."

King Qin listened. very shocked. The military expenditure is so large that it is even more expensive than the original expenditure for fighting a war.

"In addition to the necessary expenditures, a large part of these military expenditures comes from the internal competition of the three major services. The king does not know. If the weapons on the military expenditure list are developed, even if there are two million six-nation armies in front of the Qin army. Qin Jun can also tear it apart easily." Shang Wen said.

King Qin smiled. Hearing this, I am still very happy. Who doesn't want their army to be strong.

"But the price is that our country, Qin, will collapse as a whole, and the economy of Qin will not allow such an army to exist." Shang Wen said.

"Second, the structure of the army. The army that our Daqin maintains now. Its army is still the main part. The navy and the heavenly army do not even reach one percent of it. The army's structure is unusually large and bloated. Now we are in front of us. It is no longer possible for the enemy to attack us from the front. They were broken up by our Qin army, broken down, and scattered in a large area. They are very flexible. Such a bloated and huge army is very unsuitable for this kind of combat method. "

"Third, Daqin needs to return to the track of economic construction. Especially to digest the vast land currently occupied by the Qin army. This requires population. It requires labor. Soldiers have been in the war for a long time. The economic damage to Daqin is too great. It is also the driving force of population growth." Shang Wen said.

"Yeah. Mr. Go on." King Qin nodded and approved Shang Wen's idea. And these are very correct.

"My lord. Our disarmament is actually to keep the Qin army stronger. This is a military revolution. Advanced weapon technology requires a comprehensive innovation in tactics and strategy." Shang Wen put forward his own views.

"On the basis of undiminished combat effectiveness or higher requirements. The Qin army is required to use more technology. And the technical requirements are getting higher and higher. Its effectiveness in warfare may exceed before. But the scale is less than that. The structure is more reasonable. The sky army and The navy will be able to advance the three armies together. There are many ways to attack the opponent. The enemy can't defend it." Shang Wen said.

"Okay." King Qin exclaimed.

"The most important thing is. Our country's economic burden is much smaller. Moreover, the technological level of military equipment has improved. It is also the rapid increase of our Daqin technical reserves. The two promote each other. This is a great boost to the economy."

"In addition, the king should also improve the reserve service system of Daqin. Only in this way can the training level and combat effectiveness of the army be improved."

"Well, yes. There is Mr. Lao for these things. The widow is absolutely assured of his husband." Qin Wang said.

In fact, this is to let Shang Wen feel relieved to do it boldly. King Qin saw it. Shangwen's starting point. It is often from the perspective of the country. Not an individual. And most of the considerations are based on economics. on economic. This is the shortcoming of King Qin. It was also something that King Qin couldn't understand.

"minister,……". Shang Wen understood what King Qin meant.

"Okay, sir, you don't need to be polite. The widow should thank the prime minister. Zhao Gao tells the widow about some changes in Xianyang every day. These changes are not too late in one day. The widow should go out for a walk." King Qin said.

...Then the two officials had no further discussion on state affairs. But it was strange to talk about some irrelevant topics. When these are finished. it's getting dark. Shangwen will also go back to his residence to draw up some terms. These are a series of terms signed with South Korea. These terms are still confidential. After all, it also involves the content of coup support.

In order to ensure the consistency of South Korea's diplomacy with Qin. Shang Wen proposed it for the first time. It is necessary to lease an area on the main traffic road as an intermediate rest stop for Qin State. This is actually Qin's lease area. In this area. The State of Qin will have its own politics, justice, and even the power to garrison troops. And such a leased area. Shangwen will set up five along the main traffic arteries. It can be increased at will if necessary.

At the same time, in order to ensure the rapid response ability of Qin Jun. Shang Wen asked South Korea to cooperate with Qin. Build a lot of roads, highways, and railways. Even the airports and terminals that will appear later. This is to some extent. Qin State is exporting its own advanced technology. But the premise is that some of South Korea's independence is disappearing. Shang Wen didn't know how much the other party accepted. But in order to take the initiative. Shang Wen wrote the draft very clearly and obscurely. And a lot of modern vocabulary is used. The purpose is very obvious. That is to get the most benefit in the negotiation.

Simultaneously. Shangwen also copied a copy early. This one is for Yan Guo.
