Chapter 4020: Oil resources

"Our failure this time is firstly due to poor preparations, and secondly, the matter of the blockade. We can't block the Armenians. They will run away automatically. This is simply the biggest disadvantage for us. It is the existence of these people that led to our final failure." Li Guo said.

"I don't understand, I want to know, what on earth do you think?" Li Feng asked.

"The matter is very simple. Our main battle failure this time is due to many factors. We can make rectifications on our own. For example, first establish a blockade and restrict Armenians' military actions. In this way, we can fix the opponent." Li If so said.

Regarding this war, the people of Qin were also thinking about it, and they actively sought various ways to take over.

"I think things are not that simple. The main reason for this battle is the road. Whether it is an offensive or a retreat, Armenia does not have a road to walk. Many soldiers fell on the road to retreat. The road was muddy. It makes our situation more difficult to walk. This is the worst for us, and the worst is that many of our military equipment cannot be transported by road to reach the destination we want. This It directly caused our mistakes in firepower output." Li Feng said. He was also summing up. He believed that the road conditions had a great impact on this battle, because Rest was unable to make his logistics supplies complete as they should be, and many supplies could not be delivered in time. As for the advancing soldiers, the road conditions became abnormally slow, coupled with the rainy weather, which made their condition even worse, and many weapons and equipment fell into the mud.

"I feel that what we said is not right. We should gradually eat into their territory instead of actively launching a large-scale offensive. From the very beginning, we made a big mistake. Faced with such a situation. We all acted too anxiously." Li Guo concluded.

"Well, I recently studied your series of operations. I think that many of your ideas are correct. For example, we can adopt a policy of tenderness and absorb part of the Armenians to participate in our military operations. Let the Armenians To solve each other’s problems, that is to say, your locals fight against the locals in combat operations. Such operations will save us more costs." Li Feng said.

"I think it is impossible to trust the locals in that way. They are all untrustworthy people and they will have a huge impact on us." Li Guo said.

"When using these Armenians, we should become more cautious. After all, they will have a great adverse effect on us. In the face of such a situation, we must not allow such things to continue to happen. Otherwise, they will be very detrimental to us, and we must not let this happen." Li Guo said.

"I think the biggest benefit should be focused on other things. For example, we can use elite combat and send special forces to do such things." Li Guo said.

"Well, no matter what, our ideas won't be appreciated by the superiors. For us, it will cause more massive losses. We think too much." Li Guo said.

How to do it specifically? They act as consultants, and the staff can only make relevant suggestions. The specific decision lies with the high-level.

In Lou Jing's office, the Minister of Defense met with Lou Jing to discuss some time.

"The situation in China and the West is quite chaotic for us." The Defense Minister said.

"Introduce." Lou Jing said.

"In Persia, there is a melee between warlords. The fighting has become extremely fierce. Many battles have become more and more frequent. According to our financial understanding of them, there are many things that we cannot but consider, such as the Yapian arms business. The unfolding." The Secretary of Defense is a serious soldier. His analysis began to be comprehensive, because he found that national defense has many connections with many things, and this connection is bound to make them consider some specific situations.

"Yeah. Tell me. Maybe, what can we find?" Lou Jing said.

"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister. We have discovered that with the import of a large number of armaments, for example, in Persia, we have a considerable import of armaments. At the same time, because of the competition of the Chu people, the price of munitions It has also begun to decrease rapidly. The influx of so many weapons has further aggravated the degree of warlord melee, and the intensity has far exceeded our estimates. Under such conditions, a situation is developing towards our unfavorable situation. We must resolve such matters as soon as possible," said the defense minister.

"The specific situation is this. We continue to import pornographic films and armaments, which has caused the intensity of the war to become more and more intense. As a result, the warlord’s financial needs have become more frequent, and we can , To provide some financial support, and these support, there are many conditions, such as they can provide more tariffs, and support for trade convenience, etc., but these are still not enough, we still need a lot of things "The Minister of Defense said.

The defense minister’s views are still somewhat incomplete, but Lou Jing has already seen the problem. The Minister of Defense was still explaining some issues, but Lou Jing was thinking about other things.

Yapian and munitions are the two most important trades. These trades will bring huge benefits to Qi. At the same time, because of Chu, Chu also began to export more Yapian and munitions on a large scale, which led to China and the West. The situation has become more and more complicated, coupled with the melee of the Persian warlords, making this fierce battle more difficult to resolve. The conditions of the war are already in an extremely unfavorable state.

Regardless of the factors of war, a very important economic factor has aroused Lou Jing’s concern, that is, trade balance, exporting a large number of elegant films, arms, these things can bring them more economic benefits, this is True, but the problem is that these things will bring them more profits, and these profits are the trade surplus, but for the Persian warlords and the Persian economy, they will become more and more withered. In the next military operations, how should they maintain such a state, or in other words, how should they deal with such a situation. He is not very clear about this, but what he needs is. But he felt that he could find what he needed from these gaps.

"I want to know, among these things, what kind of things can help us solve their trade deficit problem, we must know that a large amount of capital is continuously exported, which will cause their economy to become more and more deteriorating, relying on pure grazing. , And the agricultural economy is very difficult to recover. Coupled with constant wars, this will make their situation even more unfavorable. Therefore, under such circumstances, I would like to know how we should deal with such a situation. Such a situation?" Lou Jing suddenly put forward such a view. Yes, how is this problem solved. He wants to hear the opinion of the Secretary of Defense.

"Well, what I know is that there is a woman’s economy. Persian women. A large number of Persian women are seen as a brand new commodity exported to various countries. Mr. Prime Minister, you should know that many men like Persian women. They I think their eyes, and other things, are a kind of good demand, so they have this requirement." The other party said.

"Well, but this still can't meet this demand. How many women they can export, and women, this is a demographic resource. They can't use up all the resources. This way, for them, it will be almost impossible. Cause huge losses." Lou Jing said.

"Oil. Mr. Prime Minister, it’s oil. There is another important economic pillar, and that is oil. They leased us a large amount of oil-containing areas, we exploited it, and then provided them with a certain profit, or sold it directly to them. , But there is a certain risk. Under normal circumstances, we collect oil to guarantee our own interests." The Defense Minister said.

"Oil gains?" Lou Jing asked.

"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister, the oil revenue is not just us doing this, it is the Koreans who do the most. Koreans are forced to close many oil refineries. They just maintain a certain scale of oil production and then steal them on a large scale. The oil resources in these areas, with such oil resources, they can buy more money. Many countries do this. This is an important way for those Persian warlords to maintain military operations." The Minister of Defense said.

"Can we do this? I think, you know, there are many places where oil is currently needed. Although we also have a lot of oil here, but, you know, these oil resources can only meet some of our needs. We More still need to be imported, and we need to occupy some points there to become our important source of oil imports." Lou Jing said.

The oil business is the most money. The most profitable business is because many places can meet their needs. Under such conditions, many things can greatly satisfy their economic interests, because this demand becomes more and more extensive. Lou Jing would not fail to see this point, that is, he saw this point, so his situation became even more urgent. Naturally, what attracted Lou Jing was oil resources.
