"A terrible situation." Zhuge Liang sighed involuntarily when he walked down the city wall. Unlike Sima Lang, Zhuge Liang had figured out what the people behind him wanted to do, but Zhuge Liang doubted whether this could really hone his ferocity.
?What if you play to death?
"What's wrong?" Sima Lang tilted his head and asked casually.
"I just understand some people's thoughts, but it's of no use." Zhuge Liang said flatly. He really wasn't Chen Xi. How could he have such strong self-confidence to interfere in such a big pit? He really wasn't afraid of Aldaxi.
I will bite them all to death!
Slaying a dragon is indeed very satisfying, and it really tests one's mind. Those who bathe in the dragon's blood will definitely have some ferocious spirit. Those who can pass the level of slaying a dragon will be warriors, even if they are trembling and sweating profusely.
Anyone who truly defeats the evil dragon with his own strength is a warrior.
But the problem is that the Han Dynasty chose such a giant dragon to practice. Zhuge Liang didn't know how Chen Xi felt, but Zhuge Liang himself was a little flustered. Even though Ardashir was dormant recently, Zhuge Liang could still see how strong Ardashir was.
How many points are there.
Now it looks like he has made peace with the Cui family because of the power of the Han Dynasty, but in fact Zhuge Liang knows very well that Ardashir is grinding his teeth and claws, waiting for the opportunity. Now he can only say that he is dormant, not useless, you know even if
Now that Zhuge Liang is backed by so many comrades, he is not absolutely sure that he can kill Aldashir.
"I have no idea what Chen Hou and the others are thinking." Zhuge Liang sighed.
In fact, even Jia Xu and others did not fully understand Chen Xi's thoughts, but since this order was issued by Liu Bei and Chen Xi together, Jia Xu and others felt the ferocity of Aldashir on paper.
, but when faced with Chen Xi and Liu Bei joining forces, they had no intention of blocking them. Besides, hadn’t the family capsized yet?
If Zhuge Liang wants to say it, the title of one of the most intelligent people throughout the ages is definitely not an exaggeration, but no matter how smart he is, he would never have thought of what this group of aristocratic families in the Central Plains who still pretend to be gentle gentlemen have learned after experiencing the dark era.
Why after hundreds of years of chaos, the founding of the Sui and Tang Dynasties simply pressed the barbarians into the soil and rubbed them. Isn't it because in the dark age, they remembered the nascent civilization's use of violence to fight violence, and once again took back the ancestors' swords to expand the soil?
The ferocity of the time of Xinjiang!
There has never been an inch of land in the Central Plains that was donated by others. It was all taken back by fighting with the enemy with real swords and guns. The family can now show a gentle gentleman and a moral and civilized side. To put it bluntly,
Our ancestors established civilization in uncivilized ways.
What is civilization? To cover up uncivilized etiquette and rules is civilization.
Without the uncivilization of the past, where would civilization come from? If we cannot take the first step, how could we travel thousands of miles later? Do we really think that these things are all assimilated by benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, and trust?
If any of these large families in the Central Plains does not have this ferocious character, then they should stop living and just be obedient grandsons. What is the use of the family?
Do you really think that the five surnames and seven hopes will all be good names in future generations? Are you kidding? The bones underneath these seven things can really build a throne!
Chen Xi's idea is very simple. It is to let this group of families in the Central Plains see the bloody brutality in Central Asia, open their eyes, and let them understand what kind of era it is outside. Wanting to build a country without seeing blood is not a dream like this.
If you do it, Ardashir is the whetstone, and the Han Dynasty will give you all the details. If you can't even pass this test, then you can just be your grandson!
Zhuge Liang could not have imagined what would happen in the next few hundred years, nor could he have imagined that during that period of time, these aristocratic families, who were now like miscellaneous fish, would emerge in an endless stream. It can be said that the war between the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms was no longer a war between the barbarians, but a war between the barbarians and the barbarians.
The family is at war.
Even towards the end, the situation became clearer and clearer. A large number of families that had existed for thousands of years were overthrown, and the remaining monsters themselves even had the ability to fight against the country.
Chen Xi does not need this kind of family that secretly controls the country. What he needs is the kind of feudal country that is directly on the surface. You can grow as strong as you want. Compared with internal fighting for power, Chen Xi even feels that
It's more interesting to move vertically and horizontally.
Look at how far these dozens of wealthy families and dozens of counties in the Central Plains can grow. Even if there will be pain during this period, compared to the benefits that such pain can bring, Chen Xi would rather pursue something more important.
Amazing benefits.
After all, society has developed to this level, and aristocratic families that rely on the people's support and anointing, and those that rely on others to go through labor pains, should also go through labor pains for the will of this country. What's more, these are not completely meaningless things. If successful,
, according to Chen Xi’s counting method, he can count many super families.
The combat capabilities of those super families in this era, apart from other things, every one of them can compete with the old Yang family, and they are much stronger than most families today.
Why does the current Han Dynasty support this group of trumpets? If they are to charge into battle, this group of people is not as good as the regular army. Isn't it just to raise a group of big trumpets who can fight and resist by investing such a large capital?
Not to mention anything else, if there are five of the Yuan family now, the Kushans don’t need the Han Dynasty to do it themselves. If five old Yuan families surround them, maybe in more than ten years, the Han Dynasty will be destroyed.
Being able to collect corpses for Guishang would be much better than what we are doing now.
Chen Xi's goal is to cultivate a pan-Chinese cultural circle. Although cultivating a super-large unified empire is the best and most correct choice, reality does not allow it.
In fact, looking at the territory that the Han Dynasty currently occupies, we know that the Han Dynasty is already full and cannot continue to eat. If it continues to expand its territory, it will not even have people left.
Even the Ganges River Basin, if the viaduct had not solved the road problem and forcibly broke through the empire's extreme wall, and the Ganges River Basin was really handed over to other members of the Han cultural circle, it would have been counterattacked sooner or later. As a last resort, Chen Xi would choose to
When you are full, eat the Ganges River Basin.
Thanks to the value of the Ganges River Basin, when Chen Xi proposed the goal of attacking the Ganges River Basin, all interest groups in the entire Han Dynasty forced the development of national power to the Ganges River.
In fact, when the territory of the Han Dynasty has developed to this extent, the most important thing to do is to cultivate the interior intensively, increase the population, delay for decades before attacking, and leave the outer circle to those interest groups who have not yet had enough to deal with.
.
The problem is that if it is delayed for a few decades, Chen Xi may not have the energy to fight. If it is left to the underfed interest groups in the outer circle, it may not be able to take advantage of Kushan.
So in the end it developed like this. It is clear that the country has not been completely developed, and there is still a big gap in population, but it is tied to the battlefield and forcibly opened up the Ganges River Basin. At the same time, the output of the Ganges River Basin is extremely explosive, and all the benefits are lost.
The group is focused on long-term interests and does not care about what is in the pot now, otherwise there will be some turmoil in the country.
Now that these problems have not broken out, we can only say that all the interest groups that can cause domestic unrest are looking for food outside and have no time to cause trouble.
But after all, this was not a long-term solution. The Han Dynasty was already in a state of overstretch, and there was not enough population and time to digest the nearly 30 million square kilometers of mountains and rivers.
It can be said that after eating Kushan, the Han Dynasty will have to practice cross-legged practice for decades, fight less and try to increase the population to 200 million to 300 million.
The problem is that after releasing the Manan Mountain and storing the swords and guns for decades, it is a question whether the Han Dynasty can have the current combat effectiveness. Therefore, Central Asia is very important, the feudal state is very important, and the peripheral Rome is also very important. There is overall peace and local wars.
The overall situation must be maintained for a long time.
Because without overall peace, how to develop the country, the economy, and science and technology without local wars, how to hone the army, how to maintain combat effectiveness, and how to verify the power of new toys? Chen Xi is not a devil, and he will definitely not
If you mess with your own people, you can only wait for the enemy. Rather than waiting for an enemy to fall from the sky, it is better to arrange one yourself.
At least compared to enemies falling from the sky, the enemies you arrange are controllable in terms of combat effectiveness and threats. Even if they get out of control, there are solutions to deal with it. Even if they cannot be completely solved, they can still solve most problems.
In fact, compared to what Zhuge Liang was worried about, the Yang family was actually very calm, especially after discovering the beginning of spring, Zhuge Liang actually returned to Chang'an. They decisively threw aside the bait plan they had prepared and challenged Aldashir alone?
The Yang family is not crazy yet.
A winter of eating grass has sharpened the will of the younger generation of the old Yang family to a great extent. Now this group of people has truly completed the hard work of their minds, their muscles and their bones, and their bodies. Although they are thinner than when they came here.
There are a lot of them, but these people look much more fierce than when they came last year.
The traces of pampering and pampering among the Central Plains aristocratic families have disappeared, and the success and youthfulness of Parthia have been mixed together. They have become the saviors of the Parthia people, harvested a large number of people's hearts, and have the foundation for establishing a state.
It's just that at this time, the Cui Yang family, which had already obtained the benefits they deserved, decisively broke up. Just because they were allies, they had to stay far away. No one wanted to stay close to a very good ally, especially when both parties did what they did.
Things are still the same thing.
The Cui family is afraid of the Yang family, and the Yang family is also afraid of the Cui family. They can reach an agreement when attacking Ardashir, and they can also reach an agreement when dealing with the outside world. But if the two of them build a country together, one of them must be destroyed, otherwise
No one feels at ease.
There is room for others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch. Both parties know this.
So after the two families determined that Zhuge Liang had returned to the Central Plains and had no backing, even if they could get some benefits from Aldashir, they would have to spit it out sooner or later. They decisively found a sunny day and made some gruel to get together and disperse.
