Volume 2 The Kingdom of the Han Dynasty Chapter 71 Expeditionary Force

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lu Bu's suggestion was not approved in the end because Liu Xuan wanted to stabilize the north first before considering the issue of westward expansion.

    The reason is also very simple. As long as the Northern Wei Dynasty is leveled in the north, and Rouran is conquered, there will no longer be any large-scale alien races in the north of the Han Dynasty - there are still alien races, but they are scattered across the vast land.  At most it can be considered a small village, and it is very backward and has little combat power. You can ignore these existences at all. The army will just move over and recapture it directly. Even if there is resistance, I am afraid that a single army of soldiers can wipe out the entire village.

    The north was about to be completely pacified, so there was no reason to suddenly turn around and fight to the west. More importantly, Liu Xuan knew that there were more powerful forces going west, not to mention that the Ning State established by that guy Zhang Lu was stuck in the road.  Gateway region to Europe.

    This fight will not be as easy as in these two games, and there will definitely be casualties. Although Zhang Lu's soldiers are not strong enough, Zhang Lu himself is still somewhat strong. If he is right, he will target ordinary people.  The soldiers were killing and wounding, but Liu Xuan had no good solution.

    What¡¯s more, wars have their own casualties, and Liu Xuan doesn¡¯t want to solve this problem - an army without casualties cannot fight a tough battle, and he doesn¡¯t want his men to be a group of veteran soldiers who can only fight with wind and wind.

    At the same time, before heading west, Liu Xuan also began to consider occupying the Americas.

    He sent Sun Quan to develop Australia, but the two continents in America are also fertile soil. It would be too wasteful if not developed properly. Moreover, if the place is left alone, it will easily be exploited by the enemy - directly there  If a forward base is established on a piece of land, Liu Xuan's Han Empire will be in a very dangerous situation.

    So from the very beginning, he planned to place the battlefield outside the earth, even if it really came to the earth.  You must also control it in the air and don't give the opponent a chance to land.

    Only in this way.  Only a big man has a chance to make a comeback within a certain period of time.  At the same time, it will not affect its own development. If the battlefield is placed on the earth, the chance of final victory will be greatly reduced, and it will be considered a victory.  The vitality will also be severely damaged, and it may take hundreds or thousands of years of cultivation to recover - by then the opponent will probably have prepared more troops and weapons.

    Even if the generals of the Han Dynasty practiced the skills specially prepared by Liu Xuan.  It will get stronger as we fight, but it can't resist the Cultivation Empire filling it with endless troops and horses.

    "Therefore, going west is not possible for the time being. Not only is it not possible, while the imperial court is developing and constructing the northern region, it will also send an expeditionary force across the Pacific Ocean to the Americas."

    Sitting in the court hall, Liu Xuan directly expressed his thoughts. All civil and military officials in the court sat there obediently, listening carefully to the emperor's words, for fear of missing a word.

    When I heard this.  Liu Ye, Minister of War, immediately understood what the emperor meant: "Your Majesty, do you want to take America into your hands first?"

    "Let's not talk about South America in the Americas. The terrain in North America is open. In addition, the climate is very close to that of the Han Dynasty. There will be no discomfort after the Forbidden Army passes by. At the same time, there are only some undeveloped barbarians and indigenous people there, and there is no large-scale force.  It doesn¡¯t take too many soldiers and horses to occupy such a large piece of land!¡±

    After a pause, Liu Xuan waited for everyone to digest these contents before continuing: "In addition, Sun Quan founded the country in Australia and proclaimed himself emperor. Now he has managed such a large Australia well. He also has a map in his hand. If he wants  In terms of external expansion, the two continents in the Americas will definitely be his top priority - as long as they occupy them, they will have a way out even if Australia is attacked!"

    This involves an issue of strategic depth. Perhaps the generals of this era have not considered strategic concepts such as exchanging land for time, but they still understand the general principle.

    ??In other words, if the Sun family has an extra territory, he will have more room for maneuver, and with more trump cards, his chances of turning defeat into victory will increase.

    If it were originally true, Liu Xuan might still be happy to let Sun Quan develop the foundations of those two continents before he would destroy Sun Quan and take over directly. This would save a lot of trouble - such as choosing a place to build a city, building a city, etc.  roads etc.

    But now he no longer thinks so. In order to integrate the world as soon as possible, he plans to take the initiative and directly control North America - South America has many primitive jungles, and it is not good to develop that place. It is not good not to develop it. It is suitable  There are not as many places for large-scale settlement as in North America, and there will be many difficulties in development, so we put it aside for the time being, and at the worst, open up the coastal areas first.

    When America falls into the hands of the Han, Europe and Africa will be left.

    These two continents, Europe and Asia are connected, and Africa is relatively close to Europe. Liu Xuan felt that if he wanted to attack Africa, it would be better to move Europe.It would be better to take advantage of the situation after pacification, or simply let the Scourge Legion directly go south and cause harm to Africa first. Anyway, the Scourge Legion are all dead, and they are not afraid of Africa's weird terrain and bad climate environment.

    At the same time, there is no need to be afraid of various creatures on the African continent

    "Huh? Thinking about it this way, it seems that South America should also be dealt with by the Scourge Legion!"

    Compared to Africa, the jungles of South America are more troublesome, especially the indigenous people of South America who like to hide in dense forests. There are also various bugs, piranhas, crocodiles, pythons, etc. there.  Even tyrannical soldiers like the big man wouldn't be able to stand these ferocious creatures if they sent ordinary people over.

    After all, although the soldiers at this time are powerful, they are not out of the category of human beings. Unless all the soldiers become immortals, in that case, he doesn't have to care about these messes and can just lead the soldiers and horses to fight into the universe.

    But the Scourge Legion doesn¡¯t have this problem. If nothing else, as long as they don¡¯t get killed by those nasty bugs, they can avoid a lot of trouble.

    Liu Xuan touched his chin and kept this in mind, wondering whether to form another natural disaster army or transfer people from Sun Ce?

    Anyway, it¡¯s not troublesome to transfer people from Sun Ce. Just go directly to the sea from Europe, cross the Atlantic Ocean and go straight to South America!

    "Your Majesty, it is indeed feasible to attack America, and it will not require too many soldiers and horses. I estimate that 50,000 soldiers will be enough to wipe out North America, but to develop the entire North America, this"

    Liu Ye turned his head and looked at Zhuge Liang, the Minister of Household Affairs, and Huang Chengyan, the Minister of Industry.

    Speaking of which, development and infrastructure construction are inseparable from these two people. The key to attacking the Americas is not the army, but whether these two are sure to develop and construct the entire Americas.

    Zhuge Liang calculated in his head and nodded directly: "If Your Majesty is not in a hurry, in about ten years, the Han Dynasty will have a lot of surplus people. Although these people are not afraid of not having jobs in the Han Dynasty, they will to some extent create a labor force.  It would be a good thing if we could have such a place to go to the surplus situation!¡±

    The Han Dynasty has developed over the years. After so many years, the population is growing faster year by year - fewer people die, more people live, and more and more children are born every year. How can the population not grow faster?

    ??At least for now, the population of Dahan has reached a considerable height, which is not only enough to fill up the large area of ??land just conquered by Dahan, but also ensures that the areas originally owned by Dahan will not be affected in any way.

    It's just that Liu Xuan took a step too far. He had just destroyed the Northern Wei Dynasty, occupied the entire Northern Wei Dynasty and most of Siberia, and wanted to develop North America. No matter how large the population was, it was not used in this way, so Zhuge Liang said: If  Development starts ten years later, then no problem.

    This means that it is okay to develop now, but the development progress in the north and North America will be affected to varying degrees, and the initial speed will definitely not be able to increase.

    If it doesn¡¯t work well, both ends will be affected. It¡¯s better to focus on the north first and hold off on the North American side for a while.

    ¡°Anyway, children are being born in large numbers and quickly, and in ten years another batch of children will grow up. The placement of these people will be a headache enough. Things in North America have just solved this problem.

    "Where is the Ministry of Industry?"

    Hearing the emperor¡¯s inquiry, Huang Chengyan nodded with a smile: ¡°There is no problem with the Ministry of Works! Whether it is various construction equipment or materials, the Ministry of Works can prepare them in the shortest possible time.¡±

    Over the years, the most hilarious person I have ever spoken to is Huang Chengyan.

    The daughter worked hard and even became the minister of the temple. She was only slightly lower than herself in terms of rank, and she was also a concubine that the emperor loved very much. At the same time, the various development and construction projects of the Han Dynasty kept the Ministry of Industry occupied all day long.  The novel mechanism also made Huang Chengyan extremely happy.

    While studying what he likes and doing big things at the same time, he feels that his life is really not in vain - not to mention that since he started practicing, he is now running for two hundred at his age, and he is still alive and kicking, and even his hair has changed a few times.  Returning to black, what else could he be dissatisfied with in this situation?

    Therefore, Huang Chengyan smiles all day long and is friendly to everyone he meets. Many young people who have just entered the court think that he is a good old man - in fact, it is almost the same.

    When the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry said this, Liu Xuan knew what to do.

    "No matter what, first send 50,000 troops to occupy North America. If those natives make trouble, kill them all! Of course, if you are willing to submit to the Han, then you can teach them!"

    Those indigenous people who want to integrate into the Han Dynasty definitely need some education, which also involvesWhen they arrived at the Ministry of Rites, the big bosses of the Sixth Ministry looked at each other and began to think about who should be sent to North America with this expeditionary force.

    But it¡¯s hard for others to say. One person is determined, and that is Gan Ning, who is still in the Pacific and in charge of the naval fleet.  Because Yu Jin was transferred to the north to lead the ships, Gan Ning was in charge of everything on the sea. After Liu Xuan left the court, he asked Gan Ning to follow him to the imperial study. He wanted to discuss it with Gan Ning.  The specific matters of this expeditionary force.
