God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

The people present basically pretended that they did not hear what Liu Tong said.

Anyone who blatantly said that he regards the Emperor as a mascot would be buried in graves long ago if he dared to say this or yelled at him.

As for now, even if you really want to do such a thing, you will basically do it secretly, at least you won't say such things openly.

However, when Liu Tong said such words, others could only pretend that they did not hear them, rather than feeling that there was any violation of regulations.

The eldest princess is just so outrageous, and some eldest princesses can even be even more outrageous, directly influencing the change of imperial power...

"Forget it, I'm not the one who's having a headache in this regard. Take a rest!" Liu Tong glanced at the list next to him, closed his eyes directly, and began to fall asleep.

The warm sunshine is shining on my body, it is really a good weather to sleep...

In the Fenggao City Government Affairs Hall, Chen Xi and Li You were both thoughtful after listening to Taoist Priest Zixu's report.

"Is this still the case in Nanya?" After Chen Xi chose to let Taoist Zixu leave, he knocked on his desk and fell into thinking.

"The terrain is flat, the climate is hot, the rainfall is abundant, the land area is vast, and the land is fertile. Any seeds can grow if you sow them..." Li You slowly summarized the truth of what Taoist Zixu said, but his tone became heavier and heavier.

Even in the Central Plains region, known as the most fertile Xuzhou region, or in the Guanzhong region, the most productive Jizhou region, in this regard, the gap between them compared to the Ganges Plain can be said to be visible to the naked eye.

The Ganges plain is a combination of all the necessary conditions for food production that they could imagine. It is a land given by heaven.

What kind of luxury is it to just drop food seeds and they will grow?
And in such a huge area, how many people will be supported even if technological waste is grown?
It can be said that with this level of land cultivation and the population that can be supported by extensive stocking, in Li You's view, there is no problem at all in the empire.

After all, such a large plain and the land is so fertile that raising 40 to 50 million people is just a matter of fun.

And with such a sufficient number of people, even if they are piled up, they can produce an empire-level combat power. After all, if there are too many people dead, there will always be strong ones, right?

"It's a pity that it can't be done. Will the other party's hard power be too huge?" Although Li You knew some basic conditions in South Asia, he also made some calculations and conversions, and finally got an answer that he thought was pretty reliable. spectrum answer.

No matter how good your farming skills are, even if your skills are a little poor, then if you calculate according to the template of the Liangzhou people, you won’t be worse than the Liangzhou people, right?
As for the land being given up, Li You never had such an idea in his mind, but habitually calculated it based on the area held by the other party.

An approximate grain production and the population that grain production can feed are obtained.

And this huge number makes it even more difficult for the somewhat ambitious Li You.

An empire with such a large number and such a large number is definitely not something that is easy to annihilate.

And such a long-distance labor expedition itself consumes a lot of logistics and food. If there is no forward fortress, it always feels like it will fall short.

"Is there so many people on the other side?!" Chen Xi listened to the results calculated by Li You and felt that the gap between them and his own results was really big. "According to this kind of land area, or even more, I have already reduced their cultivation level to the level of Liangzhou people..." Li You said calmly.

There is no way, that damn place in Liangzhou, really, as long as you are willing to grow grain, it must be someone else's granary. In addition, growing grain itself does not yield much harvest. After all kinds of taxes are removed, there is not much grain harvest.

So, wouldn’t it be enough to just grow some crazy food and use other people’s homes as granaries?
Under such circumstances, it would be nonsense to expect the Liangzhou people to have good planting skills.

"A native of Liangzhou?" Chen Xi recalled the Kushan Empire in his memory, and finally nodded thoughtfully.

In the Brahmin structure system, which specializes in crafts, craftsmen and grain growers are separate, and both are professionals. Although the grain grower technology is not very refined, the technology is not particularly bad.

Theoretically speaking, with such professional divisions, such excellent land, and a climate that is worthy of being fed by God, it is more than enough to feed a population of one to two hundred million, let alone 40 to 50 million people.

However in reality. Whether the Kushan Empire can have 20 million people, let alone 40 to 50 million people, is a question worth discussing...

"The land does not grow food, but is dedicated to gods and Brahmins? What kind of garbage is this?" Li You objected immediately after learning the result of the information.

There is excellent land that is not allowed to grow food. If this was done in the Central Plains, even officials would be beaten to death, and most likely they would be innocent.

If you hold the land and plant food, there will naturally be no objection. But if you hold the land and fail to plant it, that is a recipe for death.

"There is no way, the Brahmin system is like this, which leads to the fact that the Kushan Empire obviously has huge potential and room for development, but in the end it can only become what it is now..." Chen Xi said calmly.

A place that can support hundreds of millions of people can now only support 20 to 30 million people. How luxurious is this?

Northern Guizhou has a population of nearly 6 million, Southern Guizhou has a main structure of about 10 million people, the combination of various states in the Baicheng Dynasty also has a population of about 5 million, plus the Bengal region further east, etc., the three With a population of tens of millions, there might actually be some.

Of course, the population counted by the Brahmins themselves definitely does not have this number, and even 30% of this number is considered an act of barely living.

"In other words, the Kushan Empire itself, even if the north and the south are at odds, still has a population of close to 20 million?" Li You heard that this was only half of the population in his heart.

While lamenting that the Brahmins were not human beings, they were also somewhat thankful that thanks to the other party's lack of human behavior, they had the opportunity to forcibly annex them.

After all, an empire with 20 million people and an empire with 50 million people have completely different mobilization capabilities and sustained combat capabilities.

The former can still fight a dozen, but with the latter, they can only maintain a stable relationship at such a long distance.

"It can only be said that they have not yet started to annex the Baicheng Dynasty. Otherwise, the number of people would be even larger..." Chen Xi also understood the dilemma faced by the Kushan Empire at this time. It really cannot be done based on manpower...
