Chapter 436: Call on both parties to accept mediation

With the support of King Qin, Shang Wen boldly let go.

The disaster situation was a little bit lighter than Shangwen had imagined. Because wheat is spring wheat. At this time, the drought was terrible. Now the heavy rain is pouring down, alleviating the drought to a certain extent. Although part of the fields were affected by the disaster, because of the large tracts of wheat fields, it has become a large area. Compared with the loss. Much lighter. This is the benefit of concentrating land on a large scale.

Although the disaster was relatively light, Shangwen still introduced several measures to support agriculture in accordance with the original plan. For example, government guarantees and the establishment of agricultural funds. Provide a large number of interest-free loans to farmers. The farmers have their own ideas. They either expand production or build some water conservancy facilities. In short, it is their own plan.

At this time, the exercises between the two sides stopped tacitly. It's as if the two parties had negotiated before. The reason why Qin Jun was unwilling to exercise was simple. Boring. They want to focus their energy on the other nomads. After Yan Guo has tested his army through exercises, he wants to fight on the front line. The new South Korean army completed a secret force buildup through exercises and tested the actual combat capabilities of the army. As Shangwen had speculated at the beginning, Han Wangan was very anxious and recruited all the people that could be recruited across the country. What's even more funny is that even so, he still did not give up on levying heavy taxes. With this. Han Wangan has been squeezed off the political stage.

Shangwen urgently convened a military meeting. Wang Jian's staff has already received personal orders from King Qin. It is required to draw up a plan to cut military spending by half. The war has been very different from before. Before the Qin State, all wars were based on solicitation. The private sector paid more. But this time, war has become an act of state. The state fully mobilizes all people to participate through military expenditures. Wang Jian also realized this. Therefore, he accepted the order with a long-term strategic plan and instructed the Chiefs of Staff of the Three Armed Forces to further cut funding. Although the three armies had complaints, the order was given by King Qin himself. They did not dare to complain, so they took the initiative to cut some unnecessary expenses.

Shangwen convened a military conference to compensate for the injustice of the three services after cutting military expenditures. This is to give a slap and a sweet jujube to eat. Shangwen's sweet jujube is the reserve force under the jurisdiction of the three armies.

Shang Wen is the government representative, Wei Liao is equivalent to the Minister of National Defense, and Wang Jian is the executor who actually controls the three armed forces to formulate specific plans. The chiefs of staff of the various services were also at the meeting. Shang Wen first put forward his own plan.

The country’s armed forces include regular army, reserve, and militia. The three armies are always under the command of King Qin. It is a prerequisite. After politely speaking, Shangwen finally stated the specific measures of the plan.

National military expenditure is only provided to the regular army. And part of the reserve. In other words, all the country’s war potential will be delegated to the private sector. The civilians will provide the army with potential forces on a large scale. The armed forces have the right to administer the reserve forces under their jurisdiction. This is a big cake. The people present didn't react at once. Shang Wen continued to launch his own plan.

The state will encourage the establishment of a large number of clubs, these clubs include aviation, navigation, the army already has security, trading company armed personnel. But to appease the army. Still established a gun club. The personnel in the club are all under the jurisdiction of the armed forces. They have the right to recruit these personnel after receiving different levels of mobilization orders.

This plan came out. The three armies started to talk all of a sudden. Although they lost a lot of funds. But got a big cake. Because many people will be selected from these clubs. They are very happy to accept this proposal. The plan passed without suspense. None of the three armies objected. This is the first time a problem has been solved without quarreling. As soon as the meeting broke up, the chiefs of staff of the three armies began to greet them and leave in a hurry. They want to build their own club crazy. Although their funding is limited. The money is still out.

After solving this problem. Shang Wen is going to end this exercise. Half a month has passed since the exercise. It's time to stop. Both sides can't afford it. Moreover, long-term stalemate is easy to wipe out the gun and misfire. Shangwen decided to take the initiative to call on both sides to stop the exercise and call on all parties to sit down and negotiate.

At the beginning of June, Shangwen clearly put forward his thoughts in the State of the Union address.

"As everyone knows, Qin, Yan. And Zhao, Qi held large-scale military exercises on the border. Now the exercise is nearing its end. I call on all parties to stop the exercises and withdraw their troops.

Qin State hopes for peace. The conflicts between the nations cannot be resolved by war. The reason for this exercise is because Zhao and Qi jointly sent troops to attack Yan. The war caused a lot of civilian casualties. Qin Guo didn't want to see such casualties. Out of humanitarianism. I call on all parties to accept Qin's mediation. Able to sit down and talk quietly. Return the peace to both sides. "Shangwen finished the rhetoric emotionally. The reporters obviously wanted to know more, so they enthusiastically spoke and asked questions. But Shangwen finished his final statement. He stepped down and ended the State of the Union address.

After all, this matter has not been trusted yet. Previously, Shangwen wrote to each other to accept Qin's mediation in the name of Qin's prime minister. It depends on the attitude of all parties. That's what Shang Wen can do. And at this time, obviously can't say too much.

The reporter could not get an answer from Shang Wen. So they wrote articles one after another and started to put forward their own guesses.

"Financial Express" headlined an article "The War Passed By." It explains the attitudes of all parties in more detail. The reporter believes that the State of Qin has been fighting continuously for a year since it started last year. War consumes a lot. At the same time, it was attacked by a large number of slave traders and farmers. Many veterans voluntarily applied for retirement. From this point of view. The prime minister may take the initiative to end the exercise.

According to a military officer who asked not to be named, the Qin army is about to start a large-scale disarmament recently. It seemed that Qin Jun really didn't want to go to war anymore.

And Zhao Jun. After this war. The number of casualties has surged. I'm afraid I can't continue. And the only ones who can go on are Yan and Qi. But now the situation is clearer. What attitudes are adopted by both parties. We need to wait and see.

As soon as this article was published, Qin's stock and futures markets plunged by 3%. At the same time, people began to fiercely discuss Qin's next plan. But people have reason to believe. The State of Qin may not take the initiative to fight. Because the war really lasted long enough.
