Chapter 222: Economic Colonization

Li Quan's meaning couldn't be more obvious, that is, to support the opposition forces in their country, to support the pro-Tang forces, to ensure their control of the Sahara Desert, the solar energy collection and conversion technology has matured, and the future desert is no longer useless, at least there are abundant sunshine resources, large area, and there is no shelter, it is the best photovoltaic base.

Moreover, he still has a big killer weapon like the Babel Fruit Tree, and even go further and completely occupy the Sahara, as long as the time is ripe in the future, it is not impossible.

Feng Ping looked at Li Quan's eyes with a light in his eyes, where did he not know what his Majesty thought, he hadn't thought about it so much before, but after being reminded by His Majesty, he felt that this didn't seem impossible, but he couldn't be in a hurry, so he said:

"Your Majesty, the Sahara Desert is the largest desert on the Water Blue Star, with an area of 14 million square kilometers, and it is about to catch up with a large number of countries, so there are a lot of countries around the Sahara Desert, although our country is not afraid of them, even if they are multi-country union, but the minister believes that it is still necessary to pay attention to the international influence, and the most important thing is that it is the back garden of Europe, if we suddenly have a conflict over there, it will undoubtedly attract the attention of many countries, so the minister suggested starting to only target one country, if they promise the best, we are renting the desert to operate normally, and our original intention is the same, there is no need for conflict, we will continue to find the next countryIf you encounter someone who does not know the current affairs, it will be relatively easy to concentrate on dealing with a country, preferably if there are no other forces behind it. ”

Li Quan calmed down and nodded: "You're right, I still need to know more about the situation and think about it carefully, I will personally talk to the elder of the pavilion about this matter, let him personally take charge of this matter, you go down first." ”

"Yes, the minister retired. Feng Ping left the palace and shook his head, he didn't expect that his inadvertent words would cause such a big butterfly effect, and he was really silent for those countries.

After Feng Ping left, Li Quan thought about the feasibility of this matter, so he made up his mind to boil a frog in warm water there, and slowly encroach on it, not in a hurry, anyway, there is still a lot of land on Penglai Island that has not been developed.

"System, tell me about the situation in the Sahara, and your suggestions?" asked Li Quan.

"Formed about 2.5 million years ago, the Sahara Desert is the second largest desert in the world after Antarctica, with an area of about 14 million square kilometers, it is the world's largest sandy desert, located in northern Africa, the climate conditions in this region are very harsh, and it is one of the most unsuitable places for living things on the water blue star. ”

"The Sahara Desert is divided into several parts: Western Sahara, the Central Plateau Mountains, the most inhospitable areas in the east, the Tenele Desert and the Libyan Desert, and the highest point of the Sahara Desert is Mount Cusi in the Tibes Plateau, with an altitude of 3,415 meters. ”

"These are not things you want to care about, what you should care about is the distribution of countries around the Sahara Desert, from west to east, from Western Sahara, Morocco, Mauritania, Mali, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Niger, Nigeria, Chad, to Egypt, Sudan. ”

"Of these countries, there are two that can be considered, one is Western Sahara and the other is Chad. ”

"Chad is a landlocked country, there is only one large inland lake in the country, with an area of about 3,000 square kilometers, most of them live around this Hu, but because there is no moderation, and the evaporation is increasing, in a few years, this lake may bottom out, and the people of their country will be more difficult in the future, this is an opportunity for us, and this country is very large, with an area of nearly 1.5 million square kilometers and a population of nearly 15 million. My suggestion is to put it aside for now as a backup option. ”

"I think Western Sahara is your first choice, Western Sahara is located in the western part of the Sahara Desert, bordering the Atlantic Ocean, with Morocco, Mauritania, Algeria is adjacent to a disputed area claimed by Morocco, and the Frente POLISARIO, an independent armed group, which rules about a quarter of the barren area to the east of the area, most of the rest occupied by Morocco, and a total of 47 countries currently recognize the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic as one of the independent Arab States. ”

"You can support the local independent armed groupThe local independent armed organization Polisario unified Western Sahara, but this way you can look at the attitude of their leader, I don't think it's too difficult, not only do you have the genetic potion, which is something that all those in power dream of, but also have a strong military force, which can help them turn the barren desert into an oasis, if I am the leader of that organization, there is no reason not to cooperate with you, the only thing they have to worry about is that it is easy to ask God to send God. ”

After hearing this, Li Quan asked, "Do you mean that we should occupy Western Sahara first?"

The system shook his head: "No, in fact, if you want me to say, you don't need to occupy those lands at all, when the desert of Huaguo is full of fruit trees, the whole world will know that you can manage the desert, at that time, if you find out your movements in Africa, fools will know what you want to do? ”

"Also, if you occupy those places, then the local black uncle, what are you going to do with it, if you accept as your New Tang Dynasty nationals, they may be willing, but are you willing, are your citizens willing, when the time comes, your New Tang Dynasty black people will be more than 50%, if you don't accept them, you can't kill them all, so it's not a good idea to occupy Africa. ”

"But I can't dictate the host's decision, and if you still want to do it, I'm for it. ”

"My suggestion is similar to colonization, economic colonization, support pro-Tang regimes, make friends with pro-Tang countries, help them govern the desert, you can get more Tongtian fruits, you can also use the huge desert area to develop the photovoltaic industry, and you can get a good reputation all over the world and increase your prestige, isn't this your original intention before, and you can kill multiple birds with one stone, why be greedy for other people's land?"

When Li Quan heard this, he rolled his eyes: "You are really atmospheric, is that a bit of land, any country that has not heard of it, their land area is larger than ours, okay, I am not afraid of a battle with a book for a Penglai Island, and now what is in front of me is a larger land area, I am afraid that those small countries will not succeed, and our army will be able to teach them to be human beings in minutes." ”

The system responded: "At this time and that time, Penglai Island at the beginning was because the land area of your Xintang was too small, and it was difficult to support your development, but now it is enough to upgrade, and there is no need to be so troublesome." ”

Li Quan argued: "Then what should I do next time I upgrade, don't we need the condition of national strength for the next upgrade? If we have a larger land area, we will be able to carry more people, and we will have more resources and greater strategic depth, and this will be very obvious to the enhancement of comprehensive national strength, isn't it?"

The system didn't speak, and said after a quiet moment: "Okay, anyway, you can upgrade at any time now, and I won't hide it from you, haven't you always wanted to know the secret of Zhenguan Island, I'll tell you now." "I want to talk about "Super King" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "Youyue Literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
