Chapter 1580 Recognition
After confirming that the new Mercury was also a planet suitable for human habitation, the Han Dynasty once again fell into carnival and was once again convinced that Liu Xiu was the destined emperor who was loved by heaven. Otherwise, why would he get everything he needed? Just when they were beginning to worry about the lack of land, Mercury, which was impossible to generate, directly became a planet suitable for human habitation.

So a lively discussion on the transformation plan for Mercury began in the court. It took the entire court about a year to complete a complete Mercury immigration and development plan, and then another year to prepare. Finally, the first wave of immigrants to Mercury set sail. Under the personal leadership of Liu Xiu himself, a huge fleet consisting of 1 star shuttles and 10 million immigrants set out from the Earth and began the immigration work to Mercury.

And when this fleet arrives on Mars, there will also be five star shuttles and 5 million Martian immigrants heading to Mercury.

Originally, court officials were planning to have Earth immigrants directly move to Mercury and suspend the immigration plan to Mars. It was not that Earth and Mars would be immigrated at the same time, but that Earth would continue to immigrate to Mars at the same time.

After all, the total population of Mars has long reached the point where it can be self-sufficient. We only need to allow the Martian immigrants to develop on their own, while the Earth continues to export excess population to Mercury, which makes it easier to implement.

Instead of migrating from both planets to Mercury at the same time, or even from Earth to Mars at the same time, etc., in the eyes of many court ministers, this is a complete waste of human resources.

In fact, to normal people, the plan proposed by the ministers is normal. However, this more complicated immigration plan has been strongly supported by Emperor Liu Xiu, and even promoted by him. Any official who dared to oppose this plan openly was demoted, and some were even directly dismissed. This allowed this complicated plan to be implemented.

But only a few people could understand this plan. So even though the new immigration fleet had already set sail, Liu Yi, who was named King of Wu, couldn't help but ask his brother in the VIP cabin, "Brother, the officials below secretly complained to me that in order to sort out this complicated plan of simultaneous immigration to two planets, they spent at least an extra month to sort out the plan."

"And if only Earth was used for immigration, the fleet could have set out a month ago. And it would have saved at least 40% of the various immigration costs. Why do you insist on immigrating to two planets at the same time? After all, Mars is just an immigration, so why do we have to do it again?"

"Alas!" Hearing his brother's question, Liu Xiu sighed and said, "I thought you would understand me, but I didn't expect that you couldn't see my intention either."

"Well, I can't say it directly in front of others, but I still have to say it to you. First of all, immigration is not an easy task. After arriving on Mercury, these immigrants will face new challenges. When we immigrated to Mars before, all kinds of troubles occurred, resulting in great losses."

"So this time I plan to have the Martian immigrants and the Earth immigrants work together, so that the Martian immigrants can use their own experience to guide the new Earth immigrants and avoid these troubles."

"But this is only one aspect, not the issue I am most worried about. What I am most worried about is actually the independence and belonging between Mars and Earth!" Liu Xiu sighed, looking at the starry sky with a far-reaching gaze, "As early as hundreds of years ago when the first interstate immigration began, belonging to China has always been a big problem. Those first-generation immigrants were fine, and they all considered themselves Chinese. But as the second and third generations began, their living circles were fixed on other continents, completely separated from the core circle of China." "They will gradually think of themselves as Americans and Europeans. Although they will feel that they are Han Chinese, they may not necessarily feel that they are Chinese."

"You and I should be very clear about this. When you were a child, you often said that the Chinese looked down on us Americans. When you have the ability in the future, you must lead America to independence and never be a dog for the Chinese!" Liu Xiu said lightly. Liu Yi blushed and then said, "Brother, why do you still mention these things? Wasn't I young and ignorant back then that I would say such things?"

"Now that you've grown up, you naturally know the problem here, but most young people don't have your wisdom. In the 10 years when we fought all over the world, how many idiots did we kill who wanted to cede territory and become the king of Europe or Australia?"

"It can be said that if it weren't for your brother, there would be countless empires on this earth, and whether all Han people would consider themselves Chinese. This is also the fundamental reason why I have been constantly improving transportation over the years, madly encouraging and building tourism between continents, and forcibly promoting annual leave, ordering all companies to give at least 15 consecutive days of leave every year, and everyone must travel to other places during these 15 days."

"Others think that this is to boost the development of tourism. In fact, I am afraid that these people will forget that they are Chinese after living in one place for too long. Therefore, I need to use these actions to solidify everyone's cognition and let everyone understand that they are from the same nation and the same country."

"What's more important is to root the idea of ​​great unification in everyone's heart, so that they know from birth that every inch of land on the earth belongs to China. In this way, even if our Han Empire disappears in the future, the new king will definitely try to unify the world."

"Your Majesty is wise, I am not as wise as you!" Liu Yi sighed after listening to his elder brother's thoughts.

"So the reason for the separate migration this time is also true. Mars is different from Earth. No matter how far away the ocean is on Earth, a teleportation array can directly cross it. So now the barrier of the ocean is almost non-existent. The people of the empire can appear in every part of the empire as they please. If this continues for a long time, the cognition of the Chinese Empire will be rooted in everyone's heart, and then the earth will not be divided."

"But Mars is different. We don't have the ability to build interplanetary teleportation arrays yet. We can only rely on large shuttles to travel between planets. This means that it will be very difficult for ordinary people to return to Earth."

"It may not be a big deal for the first generation of immigrants, but when it comes to the second and third generations, they probably no longer recognize themselves as Earthlings, but instead think of themselves as Martians."
