The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Newspapers in Xianyang have recently set off a wave of "grabbing". People have just slowed down from the prime minister's assassination and entered another wave.

in the north. The two newly established states of the Qin State had already surrounded Mobei where the Huns had retired. Take the desert as the dividing line. To the south, the grassland is rich in the territory of the Qin State, and to the north is the territory of the Xiongnu that is more wild. Among them, East Mongolia has recently occupied a large area of ​​new grassland. This pasture is today's Xilin Gol Grassland. From here, an offensive against the Mobei court of the Xiongnu can be launched from the side.

Before August. The attacks on the Huns in these two states were only the army and security guards, and the armed men of the trade were carrying out. They make a living by it. The army has only a small number of cavalry units to conduct reconnaissance and ambush activities. Meng Tian is responsible for the defense of the two states. He has a seventh mobile division in his hand. This is a mixed formation division. It consists of cavalry, infantry in carriages, and rapid artillery units.

Rely on fast country roads. The huge national highway network can only pass some important traffic intersections. Can't go deeper. Therefore, it is still relying on those rural roads built spontaneously. These country roads are often the dividing line between several pastoralists.

It is these country roads. The two newly established states are firmly controlled like Qin Jun's blood vessels. On the edge of the desert. The engineers of the Qin Army are extremely meticulous. They have arranged a large number of barbed wire fences, and mines are often buried in the middle of these barbed wire fences. There are pyrotechnics such as flash hiders. The occurrence of landmines is also logical.

The defensive facilities formed by these barbed wire fences and mines made the Xiongnu dare not go south easily. At the same time, the Qin Army reserved a large number of entrances and exits. These entrances and exits are generally selected at the traffic pass. These places have a large number of troops. It is also a gathering place for trade, security guards, and merchants. The merchant brought in a large amount of supplies. At the same time, trade was also carried out in exchange for a large number of prisoners of war slaves, horses, cattle and sheep, leather and so on in the hands of armed men. Then the merchant sells these things. This is a business line that makes 200% profit. Many people are involved. A large number of veterans, speculators, adventurers, vagrants from the Six Nations, and even the military are involved.

As August begins. Some grassland owners in the two states began to participate spontaneously. They not only want to acquire a large number of slaves, but also for excitement. The newspaper reported the cowboy story in a rotten way. Many grassland owners are eager to try, and they also have their own capital.

They sold some of their cattle and sheep to a meat processing plant. Sausages, bacon, canned food, etc. can be produced there. They get money. The money makes them want to expand their pasture, or buy more cattle and sheep.

But some pastoralists have found a way to make a fortune. Instead of spending the money in your hands to buy slaves and cattle and sheep from those slave traders, it is better to organize some people to grab them yourself. Think about it. This is so exciting. This idea comes from the gun club established by the Qin Army. There are all kinds of muskets for people to choose, try their hand. It is also a place for people to exchange information.

So these grassland owners took their faithful servants in twos and threes. Hu people, or Yue people, they will not take the Huns to beat the Huns. Qin didn't believe them in his heart. Then recruit some people. Hire some experienced military officers as commanders. that's all. A flagrant small invasion began. Such things happen frequently.

They relied on a compass and a more accurate map to cross the desert and then went deep into the territory of the Xiongnu. Army commanders often choose night as the time for raids. At the beginning of the month, only the crescent crescent illuminates the earth. This is very suitable for sneak attacks. So they blocked the road with temporary snake-shaped barbed wire as usual. Then began a fierce bombardment with horse cannons. Rockets are very expensive weapons, but horse artillery can be rented from the army. The Army is also very willing to rent out the horse cannons that are about to rust to these people.

think about it. Under a group of thugs holding shotguns, shotguns, rifles, and revolvers. The tribe that the Huns had just recovered was once again in a catastrophe. The killing overnight gave these people a great harvest. They seized a large number of horses, cattle and sheep. leather. Some Hun women became a reward for the allegiance of their servants. The injured Huns were brutally killed. No one wants to spend medicine to treat them. Those middle-aged men who survived by chance, as well as a large number of young people, the elderly were tied to logs with barbed wire and escorted back to their camps.

The news of getting rich always spreads quickly. Such actions stimulated other grassland owners, and they gave generously. They organized their own armed forces to participate in such a foreign raid. By the end of August, this kind of sweeping reached a climax. Starting from Simon State to East Mongolia State, more and more people are participating. Qin Jun's statistics of officers in charge of this matter. The number of participants turned out to be as many as 80,000 people. Some state legislatures have even begun to enlist militias to participate, and the tax is far from enough to repay the debts of the banks. They are looking for new bright spots for making money.

Under the high return, some new armed companies began to be established. Although they are small, some heavy weapons need to be leased, but it is this kind of company that meets the needs of the grassland owners for slaves.

By the beginning of September, more and more people participated. Many pasture owners have completed the collection of forages and the preparations for the winter have also been completed. There is nothing to do at this time, in order to earn a little extra money. Many of them are involved. Advanced weapons made them fearless of the Huns. The generation gap in weapons is a gap. Insurmountable, unable to fill.

"Grab the collection." The word began to be used by newspapers. Because, the Xiongnu tribe began to take the initiative to retreat further north. It is increasingly difficult for armed personnel to acquire a large number of slaves at once. Horses, cattle and sheep, etc. They often take a long time to find a decent tribe. When it was time for the attack, several groups of people rushed to participate. The term "grab harvest" was originally used to harvest crops, because agriculture is extremely demanding on the weather. but now. The term "grabbing" was used to harass the Huns. Because I was late. nothing left. It is very expensive to organize a group of armed men. If you can't attack a bit bigger. A tribe with more than one thousand five. The cost is difficult to recover.

"Grab the Harvest" vividly compared Qin's harassment in the north. The grassland owners are complaining to the Huns, but Meng Tian is happy to bloom.
