I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Xu Wei asked Jia Xu to bring a map of the world that he recently drew. This battle map is one foot long and eight feet wide. It is the world map that Xu Wei created according to his own memory after he was discovered on Wa Island!
And after this map was rolled out, everyone was surprised. Although they didn't understand the affairs of other continents, they could understand the topographic map of Dahan. What surprised them most was that Dagan only Take a small piece!

Then Xu Wei said: "This is our world. The territory that I Dagan and Dahan together occupy is only one-tenth of the world. There is a bigger world outside waiting for us to open up. This is why I let Cao Cao go." The reason is that the outside world is so big, there is absolutely no need for us to kill each other in this small corner of the big man."

Guo Taixian said: "Even if the outside world is so vast, we can still occupy it by ourselves. Why should we give it up to enemies like Cao Cao? This is not feeding tigers!"

Wang Ge said: "Brother Guo is right. If it is cheaper, it is cheaper for our own people. How can the ruling party give up these places to Cao Cao, the enemy? How many places have been opened up since the establishment of Dagan, and the entire desert has been annexed by us. Now, although these places are big, as long as we are given the world, we may not be able to occupy all the continents on this map!"

Other high-ranking cadres booed one after another. Everyone had the same idea, and Cao Cao, the great enemy, should not be taken advantage of.

But Xu Wei said with a wry smile: "You guys really think that opening up a new home is such a simple matter."

"Let me just give you an example. In order to fight against us, Liu Bei spent a lot of effort to develop the land of Jiangnan. Although the harvest was huge, the casualties were not small, such as conflicts with savages, various local diseases and beasts, etc. , it can be said that it can be said that every mu of land reclaimed requires a human life. The current prosperity of Jiangnan is the result of countless human lives.

And this land in the south of the Yangtze River has been developed. Counting from the first emperor's unification of Baiyue, the Han Dynasty has developed the land in the south of the Yangtze River for more than 400 years, but everyone knows what the situation in the south of the Yangtze River is. Inhabited, other places can be said to be wild lands, and there are more barbarians than Han people!This land in the south of the Yangtze River still has a foundation of 400 years! "

"However, people from the Central Plains are prone to acclimatization when we go to the south. Three out of 10 people who go to the south will die, and there are many plagues. If a plague breaks out accidentally, all the people in a place may die."

"Plague!" Everyone trembled when they heard this term, because most of the people present had experienced the danger of plague.

I don't know if it's the climate problem or the overpopulation, and the big Han has reduced the investment in infrastructure, which has led to an increase in all kinds of garbage, and the plague is rampant. During this period of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was very popular, even terrifying. degree.

Places with large populations such as Qingyou, Ji and Xu have experienced plagues.At the beginning, the great virtuous master relied on the treatment of the plague to have such a high prestige in Jizhou and even the whole world. Even some officials with 2000 shi became disciples of the great virtuous master. It can be said that the plague was the most feared natural disaster in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

In recent years, the war may have caused the population to decrease. Xu Wei and the princes from all over the country have vigorously repaired the infrastructure of the Han Dynasty. Coupled with the colder climate, the plague in the Central Plains has finally decreased. It has not even broken out in the past few years, but Liu Bei developed Jiangnan. As a result, the plague in the south of the Yangtze River gradually increased, and the scope of its spread gradually widened.

...

And the most recent plague that broke out last year, even with Liu Bei's full support, [-]% of the population in Changsha County died, and the entire village in other places could be wiped out. A plague caused the entire Jiangnan land to lose several. One hundred thousand people.

So in this period, regardless of the power of any natural disasters and man-made disasters, it is not as powerful as the plague, so everyone will be frightened when they hear this word.

Xu Wei said: "That's right, the hotter the place, the easier it is to breed plagues. A cold place like Wa Island is not a big deal, but look at these overseas islands in the south of the Yangtze River, these places are extremely hot, basically There is no winter, there are only rainy seasons and dry seasons, it is because of this climate that plagues are easy to breed, if people like us from the Central Plains rush to become famous, it is very likely that a plague will take us all away."

Wang Ge and the others looked at the map and found that these islands are located in the south of the Yangtze River. Although they understand geography, they also know that the more they are in the south, the hotter the climate, and the more humid and hot the place, the more likely the plague will break out. They still know this!

"Not to mention these areas on my current map. These places don't even have a savage country, and the infrastructure is even worse than Jiangnan. It can be called a barren land. There are all kinds of places like this. All kinds of dangers, one of the plagues, and other diseases and dangers that we don't know about, if you want to drive to such a place to open up a new homeland, I will naturally support you with all my strength."

This is not Xu Wei’s alarmist talk. Going to Southeast Asia to resist the establishment of a country in this era is a desperate effort. Even with the support of Dagan, Xu Wei can’t guarantee that these people can survive. The era of great navigation, the early various colonization The strongholds are easily taken away by a wave of natural disasters, and they are still colonies in the temperate cold zone. At least these strongholds are less prone to all kinds of abnormal plagues. If there is no country on the land near the equator, there will basically be no colonies. It was not until the end of the 19th century that medical technology exploded that there was a wave of dividing the world.

Of course Xu Wei has the idea of ​​opening up the world. It is best to occupy all those unowned lands, so that his future generations will suffer, and all of them will be returned to the ancestors of these white people.But in this era, if you want to open up a new homeland, you really have to fight with your life. If you go to Southeast Asia, you may really die.

This is also the reason why Xu Wei let Cao Cao and others go overseas, even if it is Wa Island, Cao Cao's people are not said to be close to death, but they are also life and death. In this case, why bother to kill him.Maybe a virus of some kind would take Cao Cao away in a single wave.

Moreover, Xu Wei still needs people like Cao Cao to accumulate some experience in pioneering places, so he is even more reluctant to let Cao Cao's stepping stone be wasted like this.

After being told by Xu Wei, people who learned that there are many crises overseas, and those who want to go to places other than the big Han, let go of their minds, just kidding, war or something, everyone still has ways to resist and has experience, but the plague and I can't see other diseases, so what method to use to resist, this kind of unknown thing is even more frightening!
...

Then Xu Wei continued: "These places on the map, we must find a way to stand down and become the land of our big man. If you don't take it from God, you will be blamed instead. This island is the best defense zone for my big man. If the enemy at sea here wants to attack us, he must break through the string of islands first. This way we will have time to defend, and we can even take the initiative to attack based on these island chains.

But if we don't occupy these places, these islands are occupied by other people or countries, and then they will become the front line to attack our front. One of us present will be a sinner in history. "

"So Cao Cao is giving us the lead to accumulate experience. We need to see what problems and dangers will occur after Cao Cao develops these islands. With Cao Cao's wayfinding, if we are developing these islands, It will be much safer.”

"If you also want to occupy an island like Cao Cao and open up a country, I will definitely support it."

Xu Wei is telling the truth. How heroes should treat this is a worldwide problem. Now it is Xu Wei's turn to face this problem, and now Cao Cao has given Xu Wei a way to solve heroes. All the heroes are taken overseas, and let them go overseas to toss and build a small country.This not only opened up the boundaries of Chinese civilization, but also placed these heroes.After sorting out the internal problems of Daqian, it was even possible to find a commodity market and a source of raw materials for Dagan's industry, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.

However, few of the high-level executives in Daqian are interested in going to some deserted island overseas.I am about to become the founding hero of the country, and I will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future. Now I have to go to a barren land to live a hard life, and it may take decades. Even if the island belongs to me, I can be king and hegemony, but for What's the point of leading a group of savages to dominate?
Anyone who wants to go there can go there, anyway, there are not many people present who are willing to go there.

But everyone understood the reason why Xu Wei let Cao Cao go. This was to use Cao Cao as a pathfinder, so that they could learn more about the overseas situation through Cao Cao!Everyone suddenly realized that it was for this reason that the ruling party let Cao Cao go.

But Wang Ge and the others didn't want to be dispatched to the island, so when faced with Xu Wei's words, everyone said: "We still need to do something, how can we leave the government when the world is not yet unified, and open up the island?" Things are left to others.”

Xu Wei understood all this now, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Wang Ge's thinking. If it weren't for the fact that there was no way out these days, who would want to go to the island.

You must know that the so-called age of great voyages is not that Westerners have a great spirit of adventure and are willing to risk their lives to discover the new world. It is just that the decline of Western civilization at that time is almost impossible to survive. Who would believe Yin Liya back then? Most of the peninsula is actually the territory of camels.

Those countries in the west are not only small in size, but also poor, so poor that they are as rich as camels, and they don't want to look at them.

The so-called Eastern Expedition sounds good and looks soul-stirring, but in essence it is just some poor people who can't survive. They want to rob rich people like camels and just get up and become robbers.

...

On the side of the big Han, the nomads want to rob the farming people. According to them, the Xianbei people have conquered the big Han dozens of times. It can only be said that bragging is also their specialty!But at that time, they were not only poor but also weak, and they couldn't even rob others, but they were beaten to death by others.In the end, he had no choice but to desperately develop towards the ocean, and finally they really developed a way out.

From here, it can be found that if it is not for people who really cannot survive, basically no one will give up the land of civilization and go to those so-called wild places.

At this time, Dahan is a beacon of civilization that is more hopeful than Hope Country, and the land outside Dahan is even more exaggerated than Uncle Hei's. How many people are willing to go to such a place?

This is why the dynasties of all dynasties learned the enfeoffment system of the Zhou Dynasty, but they learned it in a mess.

People are assigning heroes to wild lands to open up new foundations.The emperors of later generations cared about their descendants, and allocated their descendants to rich places. Naturally, these rich places have money, food and people. These princes have everything, so they can only want to fight hard. Can you grab the throne of Nine Five Supreme?
So the chaos of the Seven Kings and the Rebellion of the Eight Kings raged all over the world, and the system of enfeoffment stinks like this.

In fact, it's not that the enfeoffment system is bad, but that the emperors of later generations don't want their children and grandchildren to be divided among the poor and remote areas.

If you really seal these princes and grandchildren in the backcountry, they have to find a way to farm to support themselves, recruit people, and develop their territory from a village to a town, and then to a city, to complete the real-life version of Minecraft. After this process, it will not be possible to build a decent city after dozens or hundreds of years, and after so many years of hard work to survive, naturally there is not so much energy to think about the throne of the Ninety-Five Supreme.

Naturally, the world will be peaceful and peaceful. After a few hundred years, this city will become a group of cities or even a country. You can see that the Chinese civilization has opened up a new territory.But now Xu Wei wants to send the heroes of Dagan to places outside the territory of Dagan.

Obviously, it is better for them to be voluntary, and Cao Cao is a good example of how to make them voluntary. If Cao Cao can succeed in founding the country, he might be able to attract a large number of ambitious and capable heroes to divide the land and build the country. The lack of heroes is also a good thing for the new Dagan dynasty.It can be said that this is a win-win business.

But Jia Xu still said: "Even if you want Cao Cao to occupy overseas territory, you can't entrust it near Wa Island. This is too close to our Treasure Island. If Cao Cao has ambitions, I'm afraid he will find a way to occupy it." Treasure Island, when the time comes, we will be infested with tigers."

"It's better to move Cao Cao to this island north of Wa Island. This island is thousands of miles away from Treasure Island, and there are so many lands in the middle. Naturally, it is difficult for Cao Cao to influence us."

The place Jia Xu was referring to was Hokkaido. Xu Wei remembered that there seemed to be some kind of slaves on this island, and there seemed to be a little iron ore on the island, and there seemed to be nothing else.After thinking for a while, Xu Wei nodded and agreed. With Cao Cao's ability, even a place like Hokkaido is enough for him to toss about.
