Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

"It's not a problem or no problem." Chen Xi shook his head very calmly, "You also know what I am, if you are not my brother, I will probably only give you a very perfunctory answer Understand for yourselves."

Zhen Yao laughed dryly when he heard that, Chen Xi could really do this kind of thing.

"But you are my uncle and I belong to that kind. My relatives can help when they are able, and I am willing to arrange them in suitable positions, so you can ask me, and I will give you An accurate answer." Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yao seriously.

Chen Xi has a clear view of the situation of the Zhen family. Among the top aristocratic families at the county level, the Zhen family is purely large, but there are not many people in the family who are good at planning. Even those elders are only good at making money. , Let them do the planning, it really doesn't work.

This is different from the situation of the Deng family. Although the Deng family also relies on their size, the Deng family is actually conscious. The simplest point is that the Deng family is not a businessman. Awareness of malicious profit-making by other families.

In fact, Deng Tong is mediocre, but Deng Tong has self-knowledge and the wisdom to distinguish right from wrong. Such a large Deng family has been able to maintain its current size. Deng Tong's ability to distinguish right from wrong is very important.

At the very least, Deng Tong will not look forward and backward when he has the opportunity, especially after he has calculated his bargaining chips and is sure that he can do it, then no matter how conspicuous it is or how malicious the surrounding families are, Deng Tong will continue get on with it.

The Zhen family really didn't have this awareness. As the head of the family, Zhen Yan is purely taller than a dwarf. It is purely overthinking to expect the Zhen family to develop against the malice of other families.

Therefore, in the face of Zhen's doubts, Chen Xi had to speak clearly, otherwise the Zhen family would not have misjudged, and there was a high probability that they would be ruined directly.

"Please Zi Chuan speak up." Zhen Yao said solemnly. "Midiya is the last guarantee for your family. That place is good, but you must be aware that it does not belong to the Han Dynasty." Chen Xi said seriously.

Although the relationship between the Han Dynasty and Rome is very good now, you have to consider that when the relationship between the Han Dynasty and Rome was very good, the power of the Yuan family in Eastern Europe died one after another.

Rome killed more than 100,000 barbarians in Eastern Europe, and the Yuan family killed an army of the same size in Eastern Europe. When Huang Fusong saw nearly 100,000 young and strong Silas in Xiancheng earlier, why did they fight until now? Only the 10,000-strong Slav Iceaxe Corps commanded by Valery, Igor, and Oleg remained. Where did the other legions go?

To be more direct, why the Slavic tribes that once scattered in Eastern Europe are now relying on the Ural Mountains, it is all for the Yuan family's loyal blood!

Without more than 100,000 casualties, how can Rome send an "invitation" to Yuan Tan when it invades Northern Europe?

That's not pure nonsense, even with Yuan Tan, since

As the lord, he was invited to Northern Europe by a letter from Rome.

It is a great shame, but in the world, apart from the two orthodox invitation letters, maybe only Yuan Tan is eligible to receive a notification letter from Rome.

Realistically speaking, the friendly relationship between the Han Dynasty and Rome is only because there is no obvious conflict of interest at present, so they can live in peace.

But in the future, there will inevitably be conflicts between Rome and the Han Dynasty. Once the Han Dynasty really annexes Guishuang, Rome will inevitably intervene.

After all, in the normal diplomatic relations between countries, there are only father and son, and the relationship between father and son is trying to develop. If you want to be completely equal, just look at your five fingers. All five fingers are long and short. !

Therefore, in the war between the Han Dynasty and Guishuang, the result of a quick victory is that a follow-up conflict with Rome will inevitably erupt, and the result of continuing to procrastinate is that it will not be able to win in a short time.

As the actual prime minister, Chen Xi was actually the one who took the lead in implementing the national strategy. In addition, he knew in his heart that with the rise of a great power and the birth of a hegemon, it was impossible to ignore the interests of others.

Relying on being low and being small will not kill the overlord. In the face of a blockade, you can only rely on your strength to break through. Admitting cowardice can't solve any problems, so Guishuang must die. If Guishuang is killed, Rome is willing to go to war in Central Asia, then Go to war, kill a wave of Central Asian families, and the rest

Those are the countries that Chen Xi needs.

In Chen Xi's words, for about ten years, I, Chen Xi, have almost been transformed into your logistics base. Not to mention allowing you to get whatever you want inside the Han Dynasty, at least I will give you what you need as much as possible. Even in the past ten years, you have enjoyed a low-intensity battlefield controlled by the country, a controllable situation, and an unscrupulous development method. I, Chen Xi, basically guarantee the benefits that each of you can get. , Lingdi can get more benefits!

Armor, bows and crossbows, population, secret techniques plundered from Guishuang, updated agricultural production technology, etc., Chen Xi released what he could to the major families.

To be honest, before the Yin clan, Liu clan, and Guo clan were wiped out, as long as Chen Xi gave Kuai Yue a little hint to strengthen the suppression of the Anxi bandit army, it would not have caused trouble to that extent.

However, Chen Xi didn't hint at it, because it's always a waste to let some big families who haven't changed their minds understand what's going on now, and spending so much is not for you to change places to enjoy the blessings!

Central Asia is very large, but it is also small. There are only forty or fifty families of the Han family with names and surnames. Even if all of them are in Central Asia, there are more than forty families, which is more than enough.

Based on the territory of Central Asia, if it is divided equally, each family will get more than 100,000 square kilometers, not to mention that it is only the northern aristocratic family. The land that each family can get is not small, even if there are some non-county-level alliances Family, but generally every faction has obtained a very large piece of territory, if it is just lying flat, it is definitely enough.

But does Chen Xi want to lie flat?

If it was just to make this group of people move to a more comfortable place, why would Chen Xi continue to support them since the family moved out.

So far, many materials produced by the Han Dynasty have been used to support these founders.

Although during this period, according to the terms, it was actually a loan with certain interest, etc., but after the Yin and Liu clans destroyed the country, the Chang'an Bank seemed to have a bad debt and didn't want to settle it. It's best to pay back, if you can't pay it back, if the country is destroyed, I won't hold it accountable.

To be honest, it’s because this is Jianguo, and everyone knows that the benefits of building a country are endless, and they also think that Chen Xi is doing it with the attitude that one of the ten successes will be bloody money, otherwise, he might be suspicious.

But in fact, in terms of long-term calculations and the general trend of conspiracy, Chen Xi, who has studied in the lower reaches of history, is far stronger than others. Playing conspiracy, there are a group of people who can kill Chen Xi, but this kind of brilliance will give you nothing Here, it is very difficult for Chen Xi to lose.

The major aristocratic families knew that they had borrowed a lot of materials from Chen Xi, and if the founding of the country was really successful, they might have to pay back a huge amount of materials, but they still borrowed.

Because all things are the most difficult at the beginning, as long as you can get through the beginning and really get up later, you may not be able to pay back the huge amount of supplies you are talking about now.

Therefore, the road of founding a country was not guided by Chen Xi, but after Chen Xi picked it out, the wildly growing ambitions of the major aristocratic families made it inevitable to take this road.

Only in this case can these aristocratic families grow to a large enough size in a short enough time, and then they can survive in the later stage.

Even if the territory of Central Asia is very large, the Han Dynasty and Rome really fought, with Mediaa hundreds of miles east and west as the battlefield, and the major families would be affected at most, and would not enjoy the beating of the main force of Rome. The battle of the river is known, the first to die was the Wenjia, Mengbang and other dynasties, and the aftermath of the battle of the empire is also very fatal to miscellaneous fish.

Chen Xi's requirement for the Central Asian family is that when that day comes, they can withstand the aftermath, that is, they can develop to the level of the previous Zhuluo Dynasty.

Although it is said that the Zhuluo Dynasty is finished, but one thing must be said, the Zhuluo Dynasty can be regarded as a force distributed by the empire, and it was finished.

Chen Xi could not figure out what happened to Rome when Guishuang fell in the 13th year of Yuanfeng, but Chen Xi guessed that when Guishuang fell, Rome would definitely try to make a move. It was inevitable for Yuan Tan to be beaten, and the turmoil in Central Asia was inevitable. In that case, the Zhen family will not have a good time in Mediah.

Of course only

It will not be easy. Compared with other families, the Zhen family will definitely not die, and the trading city must still be there. No matter how hard you try to fight with the ancient and northern barbarians, the exchange market will generally not be closed, because there are things you need on the opposite side. This thing will not be banned unless it is absolutely necessary.

In the same way, the same is true for the Han Dynasty and Rome. Rome also has what the Han Dynasty needs, and the Han Dynasty also has what Rome needs. Moreover, the Midea Trading City symbolizes the friendship between the Han Dynasty and the Roman Empire. It is impossible for the Zhen family in Dia Trading City to be pulled out to sacrifice the flag.

Of course, it will not be taken to be sacrificed to the flag, which does not mean that it will not be cleaned up, but the safety of life is guaranteed, and the basic food and clothing are guaranteed. Other floating wealth, just go with the wind. When the Han Dynasty wins, Maybe I can get some back, but when the Han Dynasty wins, the day lily will be cold.

What's more, if the two empires are so huge and their core areas are so far apart, if they really fight, they will end decently in the end, and since it ends decently, it will be more difficult for the Zhen family to get their money back decently.

After listening to Chen Xi's explanation, Zhen Yao was dumbfounded. This kind of long-term planning ability is really outrageous, but the problem is that under Chen Xi's explanation, Zhen Yao also realized that this will definitely happen, even if it does not happen in their generation , the next generation will also occur.

Immediately, cold sweat emerged from Zhen Yao's forehead.

"Don't worry, the advantage of Midea Trading City is that there is no security problem, and it is easier to obtain floating money there." Chen Xi said with a gentle expression.

"If we can convince Ma Mengqi." Zhen Yao exposed some unknown plans of his family almost without thinking.

Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yao, "It's rare, your Zhen family is still planning on this aspect, I thought you would always vote like this."

Embarrassed, Zhen Yao persuaded Ma Chao that this was a sudden whim when the Zhen family went to Midia, and the success rate was not low.

"However, you all underestimate Rome." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "Do you think those people at the top of Rome really don't know about Ma Chao's background?"

In this world, as long as Rome wants to find out something, there is no possibility that it cannot be found out at all, and Cyprian disappeared without a trace. No matter how you search Rome, you can’t find it out. In fact, you already have the answer. .

Not to mention that Ma Chao's background was not hidden, even if it was hidden, Rome could find out, so those people at the top of Rome knew what was going on with Ma Chao, but did they care? Those at the top of Rome don't care at all.

The difference between the Roman imperial system and other imperial systems is that the Roman emperor is the first citizen. If there is any country in this era that can legally allow foreigners to become emperors, it is only Rome. As long as you have enough merits, as long as you agree with Rome , you are Rome!

After reaching the position of Ma Chao, which is equivalent to the governor of the province, he should be the duke one step further, and the distance from the emperor is actually not too far away.

Coupled with Rome's adopted son inheritance system, as long as Ma Chao can be recognized by Severus or Caesar and belong to the Claudius family, Ma Chao's legal system will be directly in the top five. In this case, he will be adopted as an adopted son. That is basically equivalent to being designated as the heir.

The problem is whether you admit it or not, Ma Chao actually has a strong claim to the Qiang people. In essence, the most orthodox king of the Qiang people is Ma Chao.

It's just that Ma Chao's fist is not as big as the three fools, so this strong claim is useless, but if Ma Chao is designated as the heir, then his strong claim will be useful.

In addition, the Qiang people belonged to the orthodox Yandi lineage, so Rome had a strong claim to China, and of course China had a strong claim to Rome in turn.

As for expecting Ma Chao to become the emperor of Rome to give up the interests of Rome, this is nonsense. At most, a certain degree of friendship is within the scope of not hurting feelings.

Is the general situation in Rome the same for the Han Dynasty?

This is also the reason why the top management of the Han Dynasty rarely considered Ma Chao in terms of strategy. Ma Chao could choose whatever he chose in the end, and to be honest, it is understandable to choose anything.

After all, Ma Chao is in Rome, even if he can't become emperor, the duke really only needs to spend time.

As the governor of Media, with Ganassis directly under him, the road to dukedom has already been clearly defined, and the Han Dynasty can't place a lot of money on Ma Chao.

The blood on Zhen Yao's face disappeared in an instant, if so, Midea would be a pit of fire! Their Zhen family is very likely to be taken by Ma Chao to sacrifice the flag and cut off the shackles!
