Face Slapping the General - Chapter 96
In the next period of time, Wu Qiao began to order people to build new warships on a large scale. Wu Qiao is keenly aware that the scientific theories discovered by scientists in neutral countries can be used to create the latest weapons, which can overshadow all weapons in the past. Wu Qiao invested tremendous resources in this, and the speed of building new warships was very fast.
In such a critical period, the businessmen once again demonstrated their moving patriotism. During this change, the army actually made a lot of IOUs. However, this is far from enough. Reforming the equipment requires a lot of money. Therefore, Wu Qiao dispatched the Minister of Finance to discuss loan matters with neutral countries. The result of the negotiations was that the neutral country got a large amount of loan with low interest rate.
Every time a batch of new warships is built, Wu Qiao will personally study it and weed out a batch of old warships that he thinks are useless. There are many opponents of this. They believe that in this critical period, it is unwise to force the use of warships to retire. In this regard, Wu Qiao replied: “Not only are warships precious, but soldiers are even more precious. It is okay to lose warships. Soldiers cannot survive if they die. Letting such warships continue to fight will cost a lot of people for no reason.” This statement has been praised a lot. After all, soldiers were not treated as human beings during the Empire. .
Some opponents believe that it is not necessary to replace a new warship, because at present, our own side is a little better than the other in terms of weapons. Now replacing warships will undoubtedly force the other side to invest in equipment upgrades. You may lose your advantage. Wu Qiao retorted: “Reforms will happen sooner or later. It is not now or in the future. It will appear every once in a while. Wouldn’t it be better for us to take the initiative? It is better to be ahead than to be led.
At the same time, Wu Qiao upgraded his army in all aspects. He forced every battalion in the army to review its own loopholes and the problems it was facing, and write a report to submit it, he would personally check it, hit these places and immediately began to fill all loopholes and solve all problems, and finally Yu Jiyao to check the results of rectification. If you don’t know what to do, Wu Qiaohui and Ji Yao come up with ways to alleviate the situation. Wu Qiao required that each battalion report must have five items listed in strict order of urgency. Wuqiao has also added a new system, welcome all people to make suggestions, Wuqiao will send people to investigate if it is mentioned more frequently. Wu Qiao believes that the imperial rule left many stubborn illnesses in the army, which can never be cured automatically. Only severe reforms can enable the army to maintain a strong combat effectiveness in this most critical period. During the implementation of this series of measures, during the tense rectification, many places became less pleasant than before, and many executives felt pressured. Many people realized that the establishment of a new country is not just to “save” the army, but to re-lead.
In addition, Wu Qiao had to deal with Jingyan.
Wu Qiao discovered that although Jing Yan had formed an alliance with him out of self-interest, in fact, Jing Yan was still very nervous about some issues. As long as Wu Qiao dominates him, acting like a leader, or mentioning the word “great country”, Jing Yan will be obviously very unhappy. However, in many cases, Wu Qiao does not do that at all, but Jing Yan himself is too sensitive. Up. Everyone knows the saying that there is only eternal interest between countries, but Jingyan still has a very low point of anger. So Wu Qiao became extra careful, always reminding himself that he must remember that he is only a collaborator, long live equality, and sometimes even lowered his position again to praise the other party.
——He hopes that everything will go well and be carried out in a pleasant atmosphere.
In such cautiousness, Wu Qiao and the neutral countries reached an agreement on an important issue, which is to block all trade with the republic. This incident happened very suddenly. The neutral country carried out routine cargo inspections at the airport, but forcibly purchased all the goods sent to the Republic, only discounted the price, and then ordered the merchant ship to return to the place of departure. The merchants’ financial compensation cut off their trade with the Republic.
At present, the two major countries rely on trade with neutral countries. After years of war, many industries that have nothing to do with military industry and basic life were unable to develop. They were all imported from neutral countries. Now they are all blocked in an instant, which makes the people of the Republic a little frightened, because it will take some time to rebuild their domestic industries.
With regard to the blockade of trade, neutral countries have extremely double standards. Prior to this, neutral countries have always advocated that the economy and politics are independent, and that the economy should not serve politics. However, it has a bowl of turbulence and changes from time to time. It only depends on which approach can bring convenience to itself, and its attitude is obvious. I can’t stop talking, talking like farting. Many business partners in the Republic who have business dealings with companies in neutral countries are very angry, because Jing Yan’s volatility makes them face bankruptcy, and the stock prices of many companies overnight Evaporated 90%, and when they mentioned Jing Yan, they all referred to the words “Fart Jing”.
“Jing Yan completely destroyed the neutrality of a neutral country, and the neutrality that he had persisted for hundreds of years was gone.” Suddenly, the sky was condemned.
Wu Qiao was worried that Jing Yan’s face was too thin and he would not be able to stand the criticism, and he was worried all day long. Fortunately, Jing Yan didn’t say anything about it afterwards.
During this time, Wu Qiao could only sleep for three hours a day. Tan Yan felt distressed and sometimes asked people to bring some soup to Wu Qiao.
Tan Yan made those soups by himself. He has his own set of supplementary recipes. Wu Qiao doesn’t know what’s in it. Anyway, after drinking it, he can really regain his strength. Originally, some of those who seemed to be sick were dizzy, throat, itchy, and lungs. The signs are gone.
It’s just that the food and drink, brought and taken, inevitably make people wonder. “The marshal was flattering too hard, right”, “I didn’t find him a flatterer in the past,” many people muttered in their hearts.
However, there is no way, this thing is really not easy to transmit. Generally speaking, if you want to give a regular item to another person, you can send it directly. The machine will automatically analyze and detect a series of attributes such as the type, material, and shape of the item, and then directly destroy it here, and on the other Carry out item remodeling. However, the transmission is only limited to “regular items”, and sometimes even regular items will make mistakes. The machine is also fully marked “Please do not transmit important or valuable items. If the transmission fails, you will bear the consequences.” Strongly irresponsible. As for food and drink, Tan Yan naturally does not think that it can be reshaped. In all likelihood, the things that come out are very disgusting. What will happen if Wu Qiao swallows it in his stomach and keeps it uneven. Moreover, Tan Yan almost never used the teleportation machine to give Wuqiao things. In the past, the small gifts he bought after the restoration of various star regions were also taken by others. He always feared that his heart would be ruined by the machine, and he did not want to take that risk.
…
Eight months later, the new warships began to take shape, and they were no longer sporadic.
In this process, in order to improve energy efficiency, the godlike Qiu Yanting was also invited as a consultant. It was Qiu Yanting who discovered Qingsha at the beginning, and, knowing everything about Qingsha, the entire universe would never use Qingsha better than him. He saved everyone before he was jokingly called “God”.
Wu Qiao was finally lucky enough to meet me.
His facial features are exquisite, but his complexion is pale, his lips are also pale, he doesn’t see the sun all year round, his posture is tall and thin, and he walks straight, completely different from soldiers.
Regarding the fate of the new warships, Wu Qiao made the following arrangements: “Put all the new warships into service and catch the Republic by surprise.”
When the Republic has also reformed its weapons, it will take more than a year.
“Okay,” Tan Yan asked, “How to distribute?”
“All of them will go to the east line.” Wu Qiao said, “no one will stay on the west line.”
“Oh?”
A circle was drawn on the map of Wuqiaodi: “It is mainly arranged in these bases, to prevent enemy warships from escaping back into the universe, and annihilate the opponent’s fleet when opportunities arise.”
“Ok.”
“This kind of blockade will have a relatively poor initial effect, but as the investment increases, the blockade will gradually increase, and it will become tighter and tighter like a giant python, and finally strangle the opponent alive.”
“Well, I understand what you mean.”
“Good.” Wu Qiao particularly liked this feeling. That is, no matter what the plan is, as long as you say the beginning, Tan Yan will understand all the ideas behind him, grab a lot of time, and improve a lot of efficiency. Although, for some other generals, this is a troublesome thing. Every time, as soon as Wu Qiao said a sentence or two, Tan Yan understood everything. This made them wonder if their abilities were really that bad and the distance between them and the marshal was really that far. Otherwise, why can’t they see through Wu Qiao’s thoughts and guess the 95% behind it? What they think is the most terrifying thing is that they often only listen to the talk that was arranged at the beginning, and they have never missed it. It is really hard to imagine that even a couple who have lived together for more than a hundred years may not have such a tacit understanding.
“Tan Yan,” Wu Qiao lay down on the table, revealing that he had never shown a side to outsiders, “I’m tired.”
“Ok.”
“I said I’m tired, so you just say ‘huh’?”
“…” Tan Yan smiled, “Wu Qiao, are you acting like a baby with me?”
“…You say yes.” In fact, he was acting like a baby.
“Okay. What can I do?”
“What can I do…” Wu Qiao raised his head and showed his eyes from above his arms. “You can tell me a story.”
“……what?”
“Tell me about you when you were a kid.” Wu Qiao hadn’t heard much of those things.
“When I was young?”
Wu Qiao said, “Yeah.”
“That was how I was when I was a kid.”
“Do not believe.”
“Okay, then I will think about it.” Tan Yan seemed to really think about it, “I often cried the teacher with anger.”
“…What did you do?” What can I do to make the teacher cry?
“I have everything.” Tan Yan explained in detail, “For example, the teacher was late. After entering the room, she explained why she was late. I patted the table and said that the reason she had made up was really wonderful, or she Talking about the problem above, I said that her method of solving the problem was terribly stupid. During class, she called her classmates to come around to see me solve the problem.”
“You…” Wu Qiao imagined it, and felt terrible–how could the person he likes be like this? Wu Qiao was always obedient when he was in school.
“In short, all aspects are not worrying.” Tan Yan recalled carefully, “Yes, it’s all aspects, except for one point. I didn’t make her worry about that.”
“Which point is it?” Wu Qiao felt curious.
“Well,” Tan Yan smiled, “I never fall in love with anyone.”
“…”
“You also know that, although no one will ban it, it is also a headache for the teacher.”
“Yeah.” Wu Qiao naturally understood. Students are still young, so it’s normal to worry.
“However, if I knew you at that time, I guess I wouldn’t be able to do this only one.”
“…”
“That teacher…” Tan Yan smiled again, “I hated me at the time, but now I am proud of it. We still have contact. She is still teaching at the school. The school moved several times, and she followed Go, I should really like teaching. By the way, there is only one thing I don’t like. She always feels that I can have today and she is struggling to save it is inseparable. She thinks I would be a gangster without her. Nothing can save me.”
Wu Qiao: “…”
