Chapter 4043: The situation is different

Loma. Scipio's army is changing their weapons and equipment. All the original flintlock rifles have been recovered and sold to some Roma allies, who need these weapons to defend Hannibal. Although the power of the flintlock is not great, especially in the range, it is a life-threatening range, but it is better than nothing. Many people still like to have such weapons. Scipio quickly put away more than 2,500 rifles in his hands. With the money he got, Scipio only bought less than 180 rifles. . And less than twenty pistols. The ammunition still needs him to prepare separately.

"I can't wait to sell the cannon assigned to us," Scipio said.

"In this case, we will be found out soon. If your legion doesn't even have weapons. The result can be imagined." Li Fu said.

"Well, what I want now is to fight more ambushes and solve some situations completely. In this way, the problem will be much simpler." Scipio said.

"Ambush?" Li Fu asked.

"Yes, guerrilla warfare, we have no money at all, support us to do this, the ammunition and supplementary ammunition situation is completely different, financially does not give us more money, the Senate is too complicated and inefficient, wait until they supply us. If you hold it in your hands, all problems will become delayed, and Lockheed Martin will encounter unprecedented danger. Faced with such a danger, really, I feel very worried. We have no ability to reverse it.” Scipio said. .

"Unfortunately, your position is not big enough." Li Fu said.

"You are only considering your corps from a military level. I think you should think about this issue from a higher angle." Li Fu said.

"I am currently studying more information about the staff. I can give you some reference. What I want to say is that in such a situation, many things require us to make some timely responses. That is to say. , We have to solve this problem from a higher level." Li Fu said.

"I don't understand what you mean?" Scipio said puzzledly.

"It's very simple. If you are only the governor and solve the finances, you can easily solve this problem. How to say, in fact, it is very simple. You can make loans with Korean banks, and at the same time, develop industry and commerce, so that many people Support you, as long as you can solve business problems, you can solve fiscal and taxation problems, solve fiscal and taxation problems, and borrow money. Naturally, it is not a problem. With a little funding from agriculture. Lockheed Martin's problem can never be solved." Li Fu said. .

"It's very reasonable. Can you lend me the books and materials in your hand?" Scipio became very interested, and he found that he began to be interested in the position. His corps had less than five thousand soldiers, but he was only equipped with less than two hundred rifles, which was too few. It is a big problem for him, but it can be solved from other angles. For example, borrowing funds from Koreans as collateral can be taxed. In this way, short-term financial problems can be solved. As for economic and financial issues, this is the first time Scipio has been involved. He felt that there were still things he didn't know. In short, Li Fu's reminder gave him a lot of room for ascending steps, and this space allowed him to see another new situation. Although he is very young, what he needs is an opportunity. If others can't give them these opportunities, he will fight for it himself. Anyway, he must do this. This is a bold young man, and being bold may only be more reckless. However, this problem can be solved from another angle. This requires wisdom and one of his own ideas, and Scipio is such a person.

Fabian’s command camp.

"Domestic condemnation is very unfavorable to you. If this goes on, it will have a great impact on your political future." Zhang Jun said helplessly. Perhaps because of Fabian's character, or because of Lockheed Martin's strength, it will have a huge impact on any result. In short, this matter gave him a great influence, and they must face many things passively.

"I know. There will be a lot of opposition, but as far as I can see it, I didn't do anything wrong. For us Lockheed, what I did is correct." Fabian said.

"I know. This is correct, but the problem is that all Loma people don't think so. Your personal sacrifice is too great." Zhang Jun said.

"I don't care personally. This is what I should do. It's just that Hannibal's problem has not been resolved. Hannibal's military strength has been strengthened a lot. We are under too much pressure." Fabian said. To.

"I think you are only fighting inside, that is, fighting in your own homeland. If this goes on, it will have a great adverse impact on yourself and Lockheed Martin. The situation is already very obvious, which consumes Hannibal locally. Of course, the military strength of the United States is correct, but he will also suffer heavy losses and be greatly injured. This approach is the source of the Loma’s current grievances, complaints, and opposition. If we can put the army behind Hannibal , I noticed a place, that is in Hannibal’s Spain, that is his supply logistics base, if we can destroy there, I think the situation will be better for us. In this way, our situation will become It's even more advantageous." Zhang Jun said.

"Spain?" Fabian asked.

"Yes, destroying the place has the same value, and then using it as a springboard. It is also possible to achieve this goal by directly killing the mainland of Carthage. The Loma Navy still exists, and they can still play a certain role. In short, This matter, I think, from a strategic offensive point of view, such a goal can be achieved, of course. Solving financial problems will become extremely difficult. Because it requires a lot of funds, borrowing money, and going to the Bank of Korea Borrowing money is unavoidable. After all, no country can bear such a big financial problem." Zhang Jun said.

"I understand." Fabian said. He believed Zhang Jun and trusted the Bank of Korea to a certain extent. However, the Senate did not view it that way. In their opinion, banks and usury are the same. of. Although some Roma people have opened banks, the profitability situation is not very good. In a peaceful environment, banks can easily make profits. However, in the case of war, there is only cooperation with the government, and there is no other way. They can make a lot of profits in a short period of time. This is the current situation they have to deal with. Such a situation will make their situation passive, but it can solve the problem more easily.

But the veterans of Lockheed Martin believe that this is a waste. This wasteful stubbornness and prejudice make it difficult for them to have a positive view. Fabian was completely restricted. If finances cannot be resolved, the military problem will naturally not proceed, the military will not be able to reach a certain level of confrontation, and it will naturally not be able to balance the military problems. And all of this has a lot to do with the Senate. But now, Fabian's political prospects are worrying, and Zhang Jun is very worried about it, so they need to change the consul. But who can solve such a problem, Zhang Jun himself is not clear.

Inside Hannibal's command camp. Their army won again. The rich spoils stimulated the greed of the soldiers. More and more soldiers are eager to win the war on a larger scale, but Hannibal is worried.

"Fabian's situation must change. If the Roma can change their commander, this is the best way. If not, the situation will be very unfavorable for us." Hannibal said. Although they have achieved a certain victory, if they want a large-scale victory, they still need to solve one person. Fabian. Fabian is wrong in the view of the Loma people, but Hannibal does not think so. From the perspective of human military strength, Fabian is the smartest, because he balances the weakness of Lockheed Martin's military power while achieving a balance of his own finances and military effects. Although it is inefficient, it is very useful, because many things Hannibal can't easily unfold, if you replace him, the situation will be different.

"It's not the same to replace Fabian, it's a matter of the Loma people." Li Wei said.

"No, we also have a share. I have a feeling that the situation of the Roma people may become even worse. They will change their consuls. Let's wait. However, I am very concerned about the domestic situation. Worry, you know. The domestic situation seems to be a little unfavorable for us. Many things have exceeded our expectations." Hannibal said. He cannot criticize the decision of the Carthage Senate, but he hopes that he can change some situations, such as solving some current crises, or giving financial support, or they can promote peace talks. In short, he wants to do something.

"I don't know anything about this kind of thing, but I can only hope that the Zhao government can handle this matter properly. It is better for us to worry about our own affairs. After all, this is what we are going to do. We can't do anything. This can only express regret." Li Wei said.

It was not them who did the wrong thing, it was the Carthaginian Senate. They should be punished. If they did something wrong themselves, should they blame the expeditionary forces fighting in Italy? This is very ridiculous.
