At that time, the number of the Qin army will no longer pose a strong threat to some regions and foreigners. In this way, the Great Qin can rule for one year, three years, or ten years, but what about 20 years? 50 years?
Therefore, it is better to firmly stabilize the existing territory with its separation and combination.
As I said before, the Huaxia people are of the blood of Yan and Huang, and the descendants of Yan and Huang were very honorable titles in ancient times. Many strong people among ethnic minorities scrambled to get involved with the two emperors of Yan and Huang. Children and grandchildren, they will definitely copy guys and beat you non-stop until your mother doesn't even know you.
For thousands of years, the concept behind Yan and Huang has long been a cultural concept that transcends ethnic groups. Therefore, no matter the Baiyue in the south, or the nomadic peoples such as the Xiongnu and Donghu, including the Yuezhi, Wusun and other Western Regions, they originally regarded themselves as descendants of Yan and Huang.
The Great Qin and the Siyi all regarded themselves as descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, coupled with the uniqueness of the territory of the Great Qin Empire, there was a natural geographical barrier.The southeast is facing the sea, the north is a land of ice and snow, the west is a desert, and the southwest is the Himalayas. With such a geographical pattern, it is also doomed that the Qin Dynasty will not be like Europe, which will become smaller and smaller and difficult to unify.
The territory of Huaxia has these natural geographical barriers, and it is difficult for foreigners to invade. When the internal consciousness is unified, this also makes the territory of Huaxia divided and combined, and it will inevitably be unified.
That is to say, based on such a foundation, the Great Qin achieved great unification in terms of territory, mind and heart, and national consciousness.Then, it is not an exaggeration for the Great Qin Empire, or the Huaxia Clan to continue for thousands of years.
And once Daqin always wanted to rule other regions, it might be asking for trouble.
Daqin, once it includes Africans, Europeans, and different skin colors, you have to let them see themselves as descendants of Yan and Huang, and let them have no resentment and just dream.
When the skin colors are different, the national consciousness cannot be unified, and the Great Qin will fall apart sooner or later.
That being the case, it is necessary to manage the territory of China in a down-to-earth manner, so that people of the same skin color can integrate and unite their ideologies, and integrate into one body to build China together, so that the Chinese nation can stand forever in this world. Long term plan.
In fact, the Yuan Dynasty is the best example.
Kublai Khan and Genghis Khan both fought to Europe, but they fought too many places and too far to rule, and it was impossible to occupy them all the time.Therefore, the Yuan Dynasty continued to conquer different places by force, and finally chose to occupy the territory of China for long-term rule. The reason is that the territory of China has a unique geographical barrier and can achieve long-term rule.
For Li Yang, it is not without reason why it is said that among the four ancient civilizations, only China’s history has not been disconnected, in terms of geography, skin color, and the consensus of descendants of the Yellow Emperor.
Chapter 385 New Year's Plan
Although Li Yang did not explain the military strength of the Great Xia Kingdom and the Maurya Dynasty, he clearly opposed the eager pursuit of expanding the territory. The east is the East China Sea, the south is the South China Sea, the north is the icy cold land, the west is the desert, and the four directions of the Great Qin Dynasty are all barriers. If you open up borders, it will not be Yanhuang."
"Once the Great Qin has a variety of races, the Great Qin no longer refers to the Great Qin of the Chinese nation. As the saying goes, if it is not my race, its heart must be different. In the end, the Great Qin will be chaotic, and it will not last!"
"That's why, sitting in the land of China, unifying the descendants of Yan and Huang, and making the country rich and powerful, the Great Qin can last forever. Because as long as the Chinese nation survives in this world, Great Qin will always exist in this world." Li Yang expressed his thoughts in his heart. Speak out.
These words made everyone in the Qilin Palace fall into deep thought.
In the hall, there was a moment of silence.
Because what Li Yang said was a topic that everyone had never thought about before.
After some careful consideration, everyone showed signs of awakening at the same time.
Yes, Great Qin can unify the Xiongnu, Donghu, Sushen, and Fuyu, it can unify Baiyue, and it can even unify the Western Regions, because everyone regards themselves as descendants of Yan and Huang.
And if you want to unify Central Asia and a more distant world, the people there are not only different in race, but also in skin color and belief. Self-proclaimed?
More importantly, once Daqin includes races with different skin colors, Daqin will no longer represent China, and Daqin will only become the name of an empire.
An empire that cannot unify its thoughts, national consciousness, and sense of identity will fall apart sooner or later.
At that time, Qin will be in chaos.
However, if Daqin was sitting in the land of China and ruled all the descendants of Yan and Huang, then the situation would be completely different.
The great unity of the Huaxia region, the great unity of thought and national consciousness, everyone in the country has a sense of identity.In this way, Great Qin is the motherland of all descendants of Yan and Huang. In other words, the name of Great Qin symbolizes the Chinese nation!
As long as the Chinese nation is still there, the Great Qin will be there for thousands of years and forever.
After trying to understand all this, everyone bowed deeply to Li Yang, and said in unison: "Mr. Zhen is far-sighted, and I will be taught!"
Fusu also realized that the races of the Great Qin cannot be mixed, and the Great Qin can only be the Great Qin of the Chinese nation, so he also bowed to Li Yang immediately: "The teachings of the Taifu, the students must take it to heart!"
Li Yang nodded in satisfaction. As long as the entire Western Region can be unified, for Great Qin, it would be tantamount to establishing the territory of the Chinese nation.
Next, what the Chinese nation has to do is to unite as one, defend the land and love the country, unite as one, help and love each other, and strive constantly for self-improvement.Don't be repeatedly invaded by foreigners like the original history, don't be humiliated by foreigners like the original history, but should stand in this world as a strong man for thousands of years.
Of course, all of these are ideals in Li Yang's heart.As for whether he will get what he wants, he himself doesn't know, the only thing he can do is to try his best to work towards this goal.
In the original history, the Huaxia nation was repeatedly invaded by nomadic peoples. Every time a foreign race invaded, the Huaxia nation was littered with corpses, and there were no people for thousands of miles.For example, Wu Huan Hua, Kublai Khan went south to Jianyuan, Huang Taiji and Eight Banners entered the customs...
But now, Li Yang has unified all the nomadic peoples such as the Xiongnu and Donghu, and merged them into Daqin.More importantly, at this time, Daqin and these nomadic tribes did not subdivide the ethnic groups because of different customs, but as the descendants of Yan and Huang, they jointly regarded themselves as the Huaxia tribe.
In this way, it is natural to avoid the historical chaos, avoid the massacre of going south to Jianyuan, and avoid the massacre of Huang Taiji's entry into customs.Because everyone is of the Huaxia nationality, even if the dynasties change, there is no need to massacre the so-called "Han people" in order to achieve a balanced population and facilitate rule, as in the original history.
Because today's Chinese nation will no longer be divided into each other.
Without the aggression and massacre of the nomads, Li Yang believed that the Huaxia nation would be stronger and more prosperous than the original Huaxia in history!
It would be even better if he could occupy Asia, command the world, and be the hegemon of the world for thousands of years.
In the Qilin Hall, everyone was discussing the millennium plan of the Qin Dynasty and the Chinese nation. This New Year's Eve in the 11th year of the AD passed quietly like this...
On this New Year's Eve night, when the old is saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, Daqin has determined the direction of his future struggle.
The territory of the Great Qin will stop at the Western Regions, no longer eager to expand the territory, but focus on making the country rich and the people strong.Vigorously develop the handicraft industry, strive to build a commercial society, and realize the prosperity of the Chinese nation.
At the same time, open up sea and road trade channels as soon as possible, use trade as the main means, and strong military power as an auxiliary means to make Daqin banknotes into an international trade settlement currency.With the hegemony of Qin coins, we can control global resources and wealth, lead the world economy, rule the world order, and achieve the ultimate goal of ranking in Asia and ordering the world!
This... is also the most suitable path of hegemony for Great Qin!
This kind of hegemony is the most advanced and brightest. For the Chinese nation, it is also the most profitable, and it is the most durable and sustainable path to hegemony.
Of course, apart from Daqin's long-term plans, Li Yang also has plans for the new year.
For example, farmers are encouraged to raise silkworms and grow mulberries, and vigorously develop the textile industry, especially silk.At the same time vigorously develop the glass industry.
In the new year, once the international trade channels are opened, silk and glass handicrafts will become the main commodities of Daqin's international trade, and they will also be luxury goods. (PS: During the Qin Dynasty, there was silk.)
In addition, Li Yang also suggested that in the new year, farmers are encouraged to plant a large amount of sugar cane, which can be made into candies and sold as luxury goods to the nobles of all countries in the world. (Sugar cane was planted in southern China around the Zhou Dynasty, and "Zhe" in the pre-Qin period was sugar cane.,)
To sum up, it is to use luxury goods as the main export commodity to earn money from foreigners.Only in this way can there be huge profit margins.
In addition, Li Yang has a bold plan.
That is, when the flying shear ship at the shipyard is completed, when Qin Jun goes to sea to join Shaohao and Qin Shihuang, he is going to let Qin Shihuang and the others build America into the "farm" of Daqin.
Because there are so many varieties of crops in the Americas, it can be said that the land is vast and abundant.What corn, sweet potato, jicama, potato, cassava, pumpkin, peanut, sunflower, pepper, tomato, kidney bean, lima bean, apple, pineapple, custard apple, guava, avocado, cashew, cocoa, American ginseng, papaya , upland cotton, tobacco grass, etc., in short, there are countless varieties.In particular, the introduction of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and pumpkins directly stimulated the great development of China's population in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Therefore, the Americas could not be more suitable as Daqin's farm.
In addition, at this time in the Americas, the aborigine population was not large, which was also conducive to rule.
Moreover, it is worth mentioning that according to historical records, there are tens of millions of bison in America!Therefore, in addition to planting in the Americas, the North American bison can also be domesticated and the Americas can be turned into a pastoral land.
In short, Daqin is the owner of this "farm" in America.Let the aborigines of the Americas plant and breed for Daqin.
Of course, in terms of planting, besides planting basic grains, Li Yang has an even crazier idea, which is to plant a large amount of tobacco in America.
