How does 252 spend money?
"I don't know what I'm saying, do you understand?" Shang Wen asked loudly to the students below.
Everyone's expressions were different, and Shang Wen couldn't see everyone's reaction. First of all, Shang Wen's analysis has surpassed the understanding of everyone present, and not many of them know what is happening in the people. They only know that it is enough to have a war. But the war is still brainy. Some of the officers' minds suddenly couldn't turn around. After all, their understanding of war. It comes from their participation in the war, that initial understanding, from contact to killing the enemy. and to the reflection on war. They never thought about it.
But other officers were keenly aware of what the war was going to change. As for what to change. They don't know, but they know that the war is going to change, and it's going to change.
"Excuse me, sir. There will be one thing that I don't understand. In the very small naval phalanx, a young ** said in a voice.
"Oh. Say. Shang Wen replied.
"My lord, according to what you mean, this is how I understand it, is it that in the future, how our three branches of the military will develop is completely up to us. Is that what adults mean? The young man said solemnly.
"Yes. That's what it means. Shang Wen said.
"I don't know, what to do? Especially our Navy. A newly established branch of the military. The young man asked.
"Yes." Shang Wen nodded in approval. This question is really timely, Shang Wen thought to himself. I was worried that I didn't have to go down the stairs, so I continued the next topic. Because there are really not many officers in the Qin army who really think. To be able to ask such a high-level question is really brain-clearing.
"First of all, I want to ask. What is your name. Shang Wen asked.
"The last general, Zhang Han." The young ** voice replied.
"Zhang Han." Could it be that this person is the Zhang Han of the end of Qin. He is not from the army, how did he run to the navy. In Shang Wen's understanding, this person fights naval battles, isn't it? Shang Wen really didn't know the bottom in his heart.
"How did you end up in the Navy?" Shang Wen then asked.
"The last general originally planned to go to the Heavenly Army, but he was not chosen. Later, when the last general heard that the king was going to set up a navy, the last general signed up for it. The result ・・・・・・ alas. Zhang Han finally sighed deeply.
"Why sigh?" Shangwen asked.
"The Navy is inferior to the Army. If I had known this, I might as well have stayed in the Army. Zhang Han complained a little.
Shang Wen smiled slightly. Noncommittal.
"The next thing I'm going to talk about is to solve this problem. Since I'm asking you to compete, there must be a way to compete. Shang Wen changed the subject.
"I wonder if you've taken any vacations?" Shang Wen asked the crowd a question.
Everyone shook their heads in unison. Indicates that there is none.
"Oh my God. Looks like I'm going to have to talk to your instructor and give you a vacation. I will give you one day every seven days a week. Shang Wen said that he missed his mouth at first, and then changed it all at once, considering that he would give them two days, it is estimated that the instructors will not agree. Just come up with a compromise. Let it go for a day.
Everyone looked surprised. They hadn't thought of it yet, and there was such treatment.
"You can take advantage of the holiday to go to Xianyang and have a look. You can also go to the arsenal of the Qin State to find out about the situation. This is good for you, I don't want our Qin State's military academy to teach stupid people who don't know anything and are seriously out of touch with society. Fool. Shang Wen said.
"Now Xianyang City, as well as several surrounding counties, and then various counties of Daqin, all have to sell something called bonds. People call him War Bonds, Patriot Bonds, Welfare Bonds, and so on. This was the first type of negotiable bond issued by the Qin state, and with these bonds, they could acquire large tracts of land after the end of the war. So they scramble to buy first. I don't know how many are currently in circulation. A lot more every day. But I know for sure that we've raised a lot of money. There were enough of them to sustain the war until the end of the war. Shang Wen said.
"In other words, what we have now is money. How the money is spent becomes a problem. Shang Wen threw out a question.
The people below began to talk about it. Some talk about how to spend the money. Huabei. Others think that there is something wrong with this adult. Some can't guess the meaning of Shang Wen's move.
"Originally, this matter required the king's consent, but I think it is of great significance to implement it now. In the future, you will have to set up your own branches, weapons and equipment, logistics issues, how to train. How to build military facilities is a matter within your services. What the Qin State needs is to be able to pull out one of your armies at any time and be able to win the war. ”
"For this reason, I decided to give you a subject first. That's how to spend money. The question of how to calculate military spending. Shang Wen said with a wave of his hand.
"Twenty thousand gold bonds for each service, in addition to thirty thousand special bonds, for the purpose of the activities. You need to apply for it before you can use it. I don't care what to do with the 20,000 gold. But I want to see a significant increase in combat effectiveness. equipment, you can go to the manufacturer to see. Go to the discussion, put forward your own opinion, explain. Then procure the relevant equipment. None of that. But in general, you have to make a plan, a report. Tell us more about what you're purchasing, how much it is, how much it will be, and why. For the excess part, you can report and apply. The rest of the funds will be the responsibility of the Ministry of Defense, and you can go to the Lieutenant. Shang Wen said back and forth.
There was an uproar at the bottom. The conversation began.
"Be quiet. Be still. Shang Wen said loudly. The crowd finally fell silent.
"Now, I've answered the way you guys compete. Also answered your question, Zhang Han. Shang Wen said loudly.
"As for doing so. It's all up to you. I've given you a lot of freedom. I hope to see your wonderful performances in the near future, or in this war against the Moon Clan. You are representatives of a new type of army. You represent the beginning of a great era. Shang Wen finished speaking and prepared to leave.
"By the way, for the military uniform, I will send someone to discuss with you as soon as possible, as for how to choose, that is your business." After saying that, Shang Wen left.
The army cadets exploded all at once. It was proposed to raise the diet. All at once it was opposed by everyone, who believed that the money should buy a lot of new equipment.
And the navy, like a strong injection, suddenly became lively. They first decided to build a ship. Get rid of the current situation completely. And the Heavenly Army quietly left, and most of them wanted to go to the airship workshop to have a look. They plan to purchase a large number of airships at once.
