Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

When Chen Xi pointed to the map and began to tell Liu Bei's senior civil servants what the world is, the people who were in contact with it for the first time were extremely shocked.

Zhuge Liang, who is known for his prudence and wisdom, couldn't maintain his indifferent look at this moment. The vastness of the world completely exceeded their expectations.

"This is the world, the complete world, that is, the world I have been telling you to unify." Chen Xi said calmly, "The Great Qin has already arrived, but we have not yet unified. We need a line of defense to stop the Great Qin from crossing the border."

"Great Qin has worked thousands of miles, I'm afraid even if he comes, he won't be able to fight." Zhuge Liang has calmed down at this time, staring at the map with his eyes, silently remembering it in his heart.

"That's not the case. We know about Daqin because we also have people who have traveled thousands of miles and hunted with Daqin in the Anxi Empire." After all, Li You was very optimistic about Zhuge Liang, so after Zhuge Liang asked, he gave an explanation directly.

"Wenru, please repeat those things." Chen Xi said to Li You.

Li You didn't refuse either, and narrated what happened in the Anxi Empire combined with the information he had collected interspersed.

"In other words, Anxi is already lonely, but Daqin is at its peak." Xun Yue frowned, "Even so, Daqin is not worth fighting with us, after all, the distance is too far, and it is not far to conquer a country. It's not what Mingjun did."

"I'm afraid Daqin is similar to what we think. There is no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the earth, and the distance of thousands of miles is not too far away." Fazheng said slowly, "If the official roads are like those laid by Gongyou Generally speaking, for a distance of ten thousand li, it takes only forty days for the entire cavalry to go.”

The horses of this era are different from the era without the spirit of heaven and earth. Even if the wild horses have not acquired the inner energy, their physique far exceeds the vast majority of BMWs in history. A treasure horse that travels hundreds of miles.

"The distance of thousands of miles greatly limits the deployment of troops on both sides." Xun Yue is not a waste material, he is also an all-rounder, and his military strategy is not bragging. Changes in the climate far away are enough to cause any famous general to lose his troops."

"Cut, nonsense, it would be hell if the climate problem can bring down old man Hua." Cookie said with a face of dissatisfaction. Although he was afraid of Hua Tuo, he still recognized Hua Tuo's medical skills very much, whether it was Zhang Zhongjing or Hua Tuo can solve this kind of dissatisfaction.

"Okay, we are an empire, and the other side is also an empire. We have each other and we have each other. Climate change is ignored, so what about the deployment of troops, even if we ignore food and grass, and collect food on the spot, how many troops can we deploy? Is there 100,000? The question is 100,000." Soldiers and horses have entered a unified empire..." Xun Yue glanced at everyone present, there was no need to say anything else, but the meaning was self-evident.

"What Xun Zhizhong said is indeed reasonable." Liu Ye smiled and took over the words, "A hundred thousand soldiers and horses are indeed not a problem for a unified empire, but we let the other party take action, and we don't do anything?"

"That's not the case." Xun Yue shook his head, pinched his beard and said slowly, "I just think it's too nervous to work so hard for a distant and uncertain enemy. Occupying the Western Regions, but in the end we had to give up, it is too far away from us."

Before Liu Ye could open his mouth, Xun Yue cut off the other party's words, "It is true that our marching speed is much faster than two hundred years ago, but is it really worth our investment? One hundred thousand cavalry to consolidate, where can we go?" How much does it produce?"

Xun Yue's words directly caught many people's attention. Only Chen Xi looked at Xun Yue happily. He had never realized that Xun Yue was so powerful and looked at things from such a strange angle.

"An empire can grow there." Chen Xi said with a smile.

"But that empire is thousands of miles away from us." Xun Yue shook his head.

"We can spend ten to twenty years building an official road, once and for all." Chen Xi said with a smile, that road must be repaired, if it is not repaired, the Western Regions must be reversed, surrendered, repeated hundreds of times all over.

"It's worth it?" Xun Yue frowned slightly, "What's the point of investing so much."

"As long as the road is built, villages will naturally appear on both sides of the road, market towns will form, and finally cities will appear." Chen Xi laughed loudly, "And that road must be repaired. Even if there is no Daqin, I will not allow Wusun, Cheshi and those small countries Repeatedly."

"As for the distance, the range that a country can rule is the distance that the army can reach within 100 days. Of course, if you are really strong enough to make the surrounding countries desperate, there is actually not much difference between 100 days and 200 days..." Chen Xi continued.

After a hundred days, if the army still cannot enter the arena, it will basically reach the extreme wall of the empire. At that time, if you continue to expand the scope of rule, the result will be that the opponent will turn against you after withdrawing the army.

Of course, there have been some dynasties in history that have clearly broken through the extreme wall of the empire. To be honest, the main reason is that the conquered have given up struggling.

It doesn't matter whether the army enters the field for 100 days or 200 days after the rebellion of the conquered, because for the dynasty that broke through the extreme wall of the empire, it enters the garbage time after entering the field. Simply put, for this kind of empire, next to The country is rubbish.

Crush the enemy every minute, and the opponent rebels and crushes it once. If the number of crushing is too many, there will be no rebellion, so the empire has broken through the extreme wall of the empire, but for a feudal dynasty, to achieve this level, That's no ordinary difficulty.

Xun Yue was silent for a while. He understood what Chen Xi said very thoroughly. The scope of the country’s rule was almost as Chen Xi said. However, the official road that Sun Qian had been constantly building had also become an eternal treasure from this perspective. Weiye, Sun Qian is using this method to gradually expand the limit of the empire's rule.

"If we don't build roads, our ruling scope can only reach the level of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty at its largest. If we build roads, we and the other party will become neighbors!" Chen Xi said calmly.

"Why should we allow the other party to occupy the place we will occupy in the future? If the other party is stronger, we will be weaker." Chen Xi looked at Xun Yue and asked, "Unification has never been my goal, and it has never been Xuande. common goal."

Xun Yue looked at the painting of the vast and boundless land, and finally fell silent. It was obvious that Chen Xi wanted to create a great cause for all eternity, and he did have that ability!

If one day the official road is cultivated across the Western Regions and reaches the extreme west, as long as the Han Dynasty has enough horses, it will be able to arrive within a hundred days, and hundreds of thousands of troops will be thrown into another empire!
