"In the future, Datang will become more and more prosperous and wealthy."
"At that time, who can still have some food in their house? At that time... can we really regain the bloody nature we have today?"
Li Sheng's question immediately stopped the group of scholars.
They all come from poor families, but they have read a lot. Since childhood, they have thought that their horizons are higher than others - and in fact, this is indeed the case.
But... I have read this military book countless times. It was not until Li Sheng asked this question that everyone suddenly realized that there had never been any military book that talked about how to take care of the aftermath after winning a battle!
Even if there were, there is no military book that can provide such foresight and foresight!
Holy Marquis...
So scary!
Li Sheng sighed sadly, "So there are some things that you must plan for in advance."
"Actually, you just said that you should go back to the Central Plains now and leave the rest of the battle to the friendly forces in other battalions. There is another reason for this, that is... after all, everyone is marching outside. If God brings something unexpected, how can our relatives at home withstand it?
?”
"So, we must solve this problem once and for all."
"How to deal with it……?"
King Luo Bin murmured and asked. At this moment, Xie Zhongyuan suddenly raised his head in fear.
"The Holy Marquis, could this be his plan to establish a Protectorate..."
"Hey, you three young people, have you seen that the old ones are still the hot ones?"
"That's right, this time we are going to directly penetrate the entire Turkic wave and uproot it!"
"Starting from next spring, there will be no more Turks in the world. Only our Tang Dynasty..."
"Mobei Protectorate!"
After Li Sheng finished speaking, several scholars were completely confused.
Damn it...
The appetite of the Holy Marquis is too exaggerated.
It's already very rare for us three thousand people to defeat more than 300,000 Turkic troops.
You actually want to penetrate directly and capture the entire Mobei?!
That is several times the territory of the Turks!
If you don't take into account the natural environmental conditions, it is almost on par with the Central Plains.
"Holy Lord this... this..."
"Isn't this..."
Ma Zhou even started to breathe quickly.
Everyone's brain started to feel dizzy.
King Luo Bin was also extremely frightened and blurted out, "Isn't this equivalent to...taking over the world again after Your Majesty?!"
That's the real craziness of this plan.
The entire natural area of Mobei is several times that of Turks!
If we only count the core areas of Turks, it is even more than ten times.
Capture the entire Mobei at once.
Li Sheng's appetite... is so outrageous!
This is the reason why everyone really failed to think of Li Sheng's intentions.
Being so greedy, this ghost can imagine.
"That's right!"
At this point, Li Sheng's explanation session is almost over.
He put away his smile and revealed his fierce eyes.
"When a man is born in heaven and earth, he should carry a three-foot sword and make unparalleled achievements."
"Just go back to your hometown, get a few taels of silver, and share two acres of land... Do you think this is okay?"
Li Sheng said this.
Ma Zhou, King Luo Bin, Xie Zhongyuan, Gao Ziyang and others were all stunned.
Gao Ziyang suddenly said, "But isn't this how everyone lives? If everyone pursues high-ranking officials and rich salaries, wouldn't there be a fight in the world?"
After Gao Ziyang said this, Li Sheng was stunned on the spot.
Damn it?
This kid has a future.
With this structure, it is simply unjustifiable to not focus on training.
Li Sheng laughed on the spot.
"Hahahahaha!"
"That makes sense! I actually figured out the concept of involution myself. One day I will get to know Li Er well, and I will recommend you to anything!"
As soon as Li Sheng said this, Gao Ziyang's face immediately turned red, and the three people beside him looked envious.
Who doesn't know that the Holy Marquis is His Majesty's number one right-hand man today?
But it sounds strange. Since the Holy Marquis is His Majesty's right-hand man, isn't he already very familiar with it? Why does it seem that he is not familiar with it...
In their imagination before joining the academy, the relationship between the Holy Marquis and His Majesty was almost that of Uncle Liu Huang and the Marquis Wu - at first glance, the title of Shengxiang Marquis was not enjoyed by ordinary ministers.
Of course, this is not an important matter, and no one is obsessed with this...
Gao Ziyang was a little excited, this was... it was an unexpected surprise. But...
The doubts in my heart are still unanswered.
Fortunately, Li Sheng explained it next.
"What you said makes perfect sense. In fact, Han Feizi said this, but it was later harmonized by a group of corrupt scholars, so you don't know. In fact, it is precisely because one person gives birth to five sons, and each of the five sons gives birth to five grandchildren. As long as the world
If there is peace, the population will continue to grow.”
"But there is only so much arable land in the world - this is just an absolute quantity, and it does not take into account land annexation or other situations to calculate the net land holdings of the people."
"At this time, there are more people, but the food produced in the fields remains unchanged. As time goes by... what will be the consequences? You all have read the books of sages, so I don't need to say more, right?"
"At that time, everyone will attack each other for food, clothing, wealth and silk... The tens of millions and nearly 100 million Han people in the Han Dynasty have become less than ten million today. What do you think is the reason?"
"This is involution!"
After Li Sheng finished speaking, Gao Ziyang and others were immediately stunned.
Damn...this metaphor is simply too vivid.
Two words, actually vaguely cover the countless ups and downs of China for thousands of years.
What is the meaning of subtle words and righteousness?
This is the meaning of small words...
Everyone just wanted to shout.
The saintly prince is truly worthy of his name!
"So at this time, what do you think...should we do?"
"Shengshuai, you mean..."
At this point in the conversation, Li Sheng basically made it clear.
Everyone immediately thought of four words.
Expand your territory!
Dry!
Just do it and it’s done!
However, unlike the enthusiasm of these scholars, Li Sheng, who appeared to be a scholar but was actually as stable as an old dog, continued.
"It is precisely to expand the territory. China has many talents since ancient times, but each dynasty and each generation often started to kill each other for a few buckets of food as soon as they were in their prime. They also had to shoulder the heavy pressure of border defense. Everyone, is this in the river?"
"This is unreasonable!"
"Nurture a good habit of expanding your territory. This is the right way to solve the problem of involution!"
After Li Sheng finished speaking, several scholars had completely understood.
However, Ma Zhou was still a little confused, "But Holy Marquis, we are raising an army for no reason... I'm afraid this is also inconsistent with morality."
"hey-hey……"
Li Sheng laughed slyly when he heard this, "So the place we are going to is none other than Mobei. The Turks have been harassing our Tang Dynasty borderland every year. The combined area of this borderland... Calculating the entire Mobei area, it is not excessive.
Right? Doesn’t this mean you have a good reputation?”
"Besides, that place in Mobei is the center of the World Island. We don't occupy this place. We keep it for others to celebrate the New Year? A place like Central Asia is occupied by the Turks. Can they understand this?"
