At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

But people's hearts are unpredictable. Fengguo can defend the central government, but after gaining real power, he can also rebel against the central government. Of course his son will not resist his existence as a father, but what if he dies?

At a distance of three months, even if it is impossible to defend, the Central Empire has entered the final stage when it needs to defend.

After careful thinking and calculations, the father judged that beyond this distance, no matter where your brother is sealed off, it is impossible for you to have any conflicts with your brother. You can develop well, build a country, and expand your territory. "

Chapter 1427 One Thousand 330 Seven Chinas There Are Chinas Beyond China

Guo Peng's explanation dispelled some of the doubts in Guo Jun's heart, and made him sure that his father's idea was not a whim, but careful thinking.

Perhaps the nautical exploration operations that started in Yande four years ago are paving the way for today's all.

That is to say...

At that time, did my father decide to let us go this way?

Guo Jun's mood suddenly became a little complicated.

"But there are also problems with doing so. I can understand why Liu Bang didn't choose this way."

Guo Peng said: "First of all, Liu Bang is not like a father who knows the size of the world and knows that a corner of China's Shenzhou is not the whole world. He naturally thinks that there is no country worth caring about outside of China, so he never thought about sealing it outside.

Secondly, sealing it out is a big project, which requires the full support of the state, the army, food, ordnance, population, and various materials, and a steady stream of supplies.

These materials need to span three months and be transported by sea ships for a long time, which may last as long as three years or even longer. This is a very huge expenditure, and most countries cannot afford it. "

"So, father thinks Liu Bang can't do it?"

Guo Peng nodded.

"If it weren't for the big ships and shipping, and the experience accumulated over the years, as a father, I don't think I can do it. Three months, spanning three months, can only be sustained with a base as big as shipping. Otherwise, more will be consumed than sent out, and the court's finances will collapse."

"There is such a loss?"

"Yes, the loss is that great, but with sea transportation, ports, and people who are familiar with sea routes, the difficulty of this task will be reduced. At least, it is by no means impossible."

"I see."

Guo Jun nodded slowly, but her expression was still a little confused.

"If you have any questions, you can ask."

Guo Peng is willing to answer Guo Jun's doubts.

Guo Jun lowered her head, looked at the map, her mind was spinning a thousand times.

He had a lot of doubts.

"Father, is Zong Zhou enfeoffed for the purpose of expanding the territory?"

"That's natural. During the Zongzhou period at the end of the Shang Dynasty, the world was wild. How can we be full of our own people like we are now? King Zhou of Shang conquered Dongyi several times. At that time, Dongyi, which is today's Qingzhou and Xuzhou, was a foreign land.

The land of Shandong at that time was like the grassland once occupied by the Xiongnu and Xianbei. It was barbaric, and there were tribes of barbarians everywhere, who were against us. The ancestors developed and prospered in the Dahe Basin, and then naturally followed the Dahe all the way to the east.

On the way to the east, they conquered all the way, opened up the territory all the way, and turned the land of Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou into the territory of China.

Every inch of the land we own now was taken by the ancestors from the barbarians. They fought for thousands of years, fought for thousands of years, blended blood, and merged into one. In the end, it became what China is today. Become Huaxia Shenzhou. "

Guo Peng pointed to the territory of China on the world map, and taught Guo Jun these important knowledge very seriously.

Let him know what is real. An inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood. The territory of the empire is not born with it, nor is it a gift for phone bills, but obtained by the ancestors all the way.

Guo Jun seemed to have opened the door to a new world. She repeatedly praised and nodded, as if she had completely forgotten the pain just now.

He still has questions to ask.

"Father, if it must be three months, why is it possible to divide the feudal clan into Zong and Zhou, but not feasible to divide it into the first Han Dynasty?"

"Zong Zhou is more than a thousand years ago. Can you predict the traffic conditions of the land under our feet thousands of years ago? Are the roads, bridges, and water conditions at that time exactly the same as they are now?"

Guo Peng's rhetorical question left Guo Jun speechless.

"When Zong Zhou was enfeoffed, the traffic conditions were very bad. There may be no communication between different places. A county is separated, and everyone may not be able to see each other for the rest of their lives. At that time, Zong Zhou's enfeoffment may be just in line with the situation. three-month requirement.

But with the passage of time, the labor of the people, and the improvement of transportation after hundreds of years, the distance of three months was broken, so the contradictions between countries began to intensify, and the annexation war began. "

Guo Peng's explanation made Guo Jun feel abnormally reasonable, and felt that this might be the real situation.

The real things that happened in the real situation are the reason for the success of Zong Zhou's enfeoffment and the reason for the collapse of Cheng Zhou's enfeoffment.

"It has been developed in the pre-Han period, with the help of the Dachi Road repaired in the pre-Qin period, the distance of three months is enough to reach any place in the Central Plains from Chang'an, and it is also possible to reach Chang'an from any place in the Central Plains within three months. , the feudal system is naturally unfeasible.”

After Guo Peng finished speaking, he looked at Guo Jun.

"This is the reason why I will never seal you brothers in the country. I have vigorously rectified the traffic. It takes less than a month to travel all over the country with a [-]-mile express. The traffic has completely changed from what it used to be.

Sealing you in the country is purely self-destruction. Even if you have lost real power and cannot threaten the emperor, there is no guarantee that the emperor will not attack you, or that future emperors will attack your descendants.

Flesh and blood, blood relatives kill each other, that is a situation I don't want to see, so, you must leave Wei, you can't stay here, you have to go. "

Guo Peng pointed to India.

"Here, there is a big country like Guishuang Kingdom, and there are also many small countries and small states that are self-contained. You have to go to this land, take a sea boat, bring troops and weapons, defeat them, and occupy their territory , to build their own country."

Guo Jun looked at the place where Guo Peng prepared for him to seal the country, and was silent for a long time.

"So father has already thought of everything?"

"Almost, a few years ago, my father had already started to think about the future for you. My father felt that you should not be allowed to stay in Wei. If you go out, it's good for your elder brother, good for you, right Wei Guo is better."

Guo Peng sighed.

"It's not enough to just stay on the land of China. The population is increasing, land annexation is becoming more severe, and taxation is becoming more difficult. This will inevitably lead to the decline of the country. Reform is only one aspect, and there are many obstacles. If we can't find another way, Wei Guoshou will not be able to survive. 300 years."

Guo Jun raised her head and stared at Guo Peng.

"Father did this to let our brothers go overseas to open up new territories like the princes of Zong and Zhou?"

"Of course, your elder brother is the emperor of Zhou, and you, the princes, go to open up, develop all these unowned lands and fertile land, hold them in your hands, and then trade with the emperor, do business, and exchange what you have. , open your horizons."

Guo Jun lowered her head again, looking at the world map, thinking about what Guo Peng said while looking at it.

He suddenly thought of a very important question.

"Father, if according to what you said, the three-month distance cannot be reduced, and if one day, the three-month distance is broken, and it takes less than three months to get here from Luoyang, what should I do?"

Guo Jun raised her head, pointed to the land of India, and looked at Guo Peng.

Guo Peng was silent for a while.

"That day, I can't see it, you can't see it, it is the future, a long, long, long time in the future, maybe 200 years, maybe 400 years.

At that time, our father and son have long since turned into dust and ceased to exist. It is meaningless to consider these things at this time, just like King Wu of Zhou would not consider the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Ah Jun, do you want me to consider their situation and difficulties for future generations two or three hundred years later, and is there a solution?If it really came to that point, Wei Guo would not last long, and would perish early. "

Guo Jun didn't speak, thought for a while, then nodded silently.

"Father is very thoughtful."

"It's not comprehensive, it's just a consideration out of desperation, I don't want anything that I don't want to see happen between you brothers after I die, I didn't care enough about you when I was alive, I don't want to die, you guys Still have to suffer.

Ah Jun, your father is an emperor, but he is also your father after all. I don't want to see your brothers killing each other, and I don't want to see any of you die in depression. You are excellent talents I have carefully cultivated. You should show yourselves talent.

I hope that you can create a career, you can have your own country in these places, and implement the rules and regulations of our Wei. After decades, there will be China besides China, and there will be endless generations from generation to generation. "

"Father……"

Guo Jun felt that her throat was a little dry, and she didn't know what to say to express her thoughts.

The father and son were relatively silent.

After a while, Guo Peng folded up the map and handed it to Guo Jun.

"Take it, this is a gift from my father. In your lifetime, if you can pacify the land of Shendu, dominate the mainland of Shendu, and then go to my father's grave, burn this map to my father. Know that you have fulfilled what the Father expected of you.

If you can't do it in your lifetime, tell your son, your grandson, your descendants, pass it on from generation to generation, and when you finally monopolize this land, send someone back and burn the map to your father, so that For the father knows. "

Guo Jun looked at Guo Peng, hesitated for a while, and finally reached out to take the map.

"If father's expectation is so, son, I will do my best."

"Recreating China in a foreign land may not be a feat that can be remembered in history."

Guo Peng patted Guo Jun on the shoulder.

Holding the map in his hand, Guo Jun only felt part of the confusion and dissatisfaction buried in his heart for many years disappeared.

A whole new world appeared in front of him, the gray world that belonged to him seemed to be filled with rich colors in an instant, from which he saw infinite possibilities.

He can't stay in Wei State, he feels dissatisfied, painful and desperate for this.

However, he was able to go to the new world to flex his muscles instead of being imprisoned in Luoyang City for life, which is another thing to be thankful for and gratifying to congratulate.

So next, Guo Jun couldn't wait to ask what kind of help he could get, so that he could build a country in the poisoned place and rebuild China.

Chapter 1428 One thousand three hundred and thirty-eight what a lucky thing

Of course, it was impossible for Guo Peng to let his son develop colonies while being a pirate while being poor.

That model is no different from the gang of pirates in Western Europe.

He went to the local area to establish a country, not just a colony for plundering capital.

What he hopes is that the local area will have long-term peace and stability, and it will completely become the living residence of the Huaxia people. It can live for a long time, survive for a long time, and become their real home.

So he will definitely give his sons some capital to develop the colony.

"Army, population, officials, and technologies that are useful to you, Father will arrange them for you."

Guo Peng said: "The eldest son owns most of the inheritance, and the other children will also have a small part of the inheritance to divide. I will hand over the throne and the entire Wei Kingdom to your brother for my father. Your brother will not stop you from taking part of the property and going to other places. The feudal state was founded.

Weifu will prepare an elite army for you, arrange some people to move with you to live in the poisoned place, and provide you with money and food assistance. You will multiply and live in the local area, gradually expand your power, continue to open up, and keep making progress. "

Guo Jun nodded slowly.

"If this is the case, within three years, my son will be able to gain a foothold in the local area and be self-sufficient, and will no longer need money and food assistance from the court."

"It's certainly better."

Guo Peng nodded, and said: "To deal with the local barbarians, we must pay attention to the coexistence of assimilation and enlightenment, and always keep in mind that people who are not of our race must have different hearts. Men must be turned into coolies and let them fend for themselves, while women are used to reproduce. Expand the population.

Teach them to recognize Chinese characters, speak Chinese, eat and wear the same as Chinese people. All the original customs are destroyed and cannot continue to exist. This is particularly important. If those customs continue to exist, the local people will not completely into my family.

Only by destroying all the original local written records and indigenous gods, completely destroying everything that existed before, and then introducing our language, customs, and folk beliefs about ancestors, land, etc., can it be fully integrated into China, do you understand? "

"My son understands."

Guo Jun has also heard a lot of Guo Peng's tactics against foreign races such as Xianbei, Xiongnu, Karasuma, Qiang, and those small countries with high nose bridges in the Western Regions.

Now they are either coolies or strong laborers. They are obedient and obedient, and they all live a farming life. Basically, there is no possibility of causing trouble again.

Guo Peng adopted a policy of complete assimilation towards these foreigners.

Destroy their original customs, language and beliefs of gods, and start from the self-identity of the entire ethnic group to carry out a complete Sinicization transformation.

There will be some resistance in one generation or two, and there will be no such resistance after three generations.

Moreover, their own population is far less than that of the Wei people, and it is only natural that they are completely annexed and assimilated.

After two generations, they will not be any different from the Central Plains Han people.

There shouldn't be any problems with the annexation and occupation of weak civilizations by strong civilizations. If there are any problems, it must not be a problem related to civilization.

It must be something wrong with the politician's own head.

Facts have proved that the methods adopted by the first and later Han dynasties are not as effective as Guo Peng's, so such methods are naturally widely recognized and widely sung.

The so-called conquest is first of all military conquest, and then civilized conquest.

It is necessary to use powerful force to defeat their resistance and show force, so that they will not dare to resist, know the strength of the Wei Empire, and further prepare for civilized conquest.

In the eyes of the enemy, the strength of civilization represents the strength of force, and if force is strong, civilization will naturally advance, and it is worth learning and even worshiping.

Therefore, human beings still advocate strong force in their bones. When the appearance of civilization is torn apart, force is still inside.

According to the current combat effectiveness of the Wei army, it is really not just a joke to deal with those unsystematic and unorganized indigenous armed forces.
