There are three levels to the acquisition of new territories: the first is to advance, the second is to occupy it, and the third is to digest it.

From the "Open Sea Order" at the beginning of Shenzong's reign to the forty years of effort in Siyi Jingping, with the blessing of science and technology, it almost didn't take much effort to fight and kill, and it was like a bamboo.

There is an old saying called 'three generations out of aristocrats', so that the new people can form a sense of belonging to the Chinese nation, three generations is the minimum, and what Dayu has to do is to complete the most basic political integration before the Europeans who love to play division and engage in '28 division' come over. This requires three prerequisites: first, the Han can adapt to the local climate and take root in the new region, second, there can be no strong enough local forces to influence the rule of the central government, and third, the most basic conditions, that the Han population is sufficient to fill the new region. At the first great court meeting in 2760, when the number of Qi people counted in the Yellow Book of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was close to 40,000, Shenzong immediately issued the "Dingbian Order" to encourage the Han people to start large-scale overseas immigration and fill the territory with population.

There are generally three criteria for measuring whether a civilization has successfully covered a region, namely race, culture, and language, and if these three indicators converge with the source of the spread of civilization, then the region can be successfully integrated into the civilization system, such as the Goths, Germanic peoples, Bolgars and other foreign races, once they accept the Ecumenical Christianity or the Orthodox Christianity, they will immediately be transformed into the category of 'Europeans'. And if you only meet one or two of these criteria, you can only say, 'The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard', such as Ottoman, who converted to the Heavenly Sect and called himself Sudan, but never made a fool of Hailifan. Now Dayu has not been excluded from the Age of Discovery, and according to the first-come, first-served principle, it has occupied a lot of territory and needs to be digested slowly. The criterion for 'digesting' a place is that more than ninety percent of the residents of a new area identify themselves as 'Dayu people', which is a cultural concept rather than a political one. Spread the way with the crowd tactics that China is best at, where can the areas dominated by savages or low-class civilizations withstand this all-round demographic, cultural, economic, political and military suppression?

Now most of Asia, the whole of Australia and North America, are flying the national flag of Dayu - the nine-star Taiji Golden Dragon Flag, and when the Europeans, who think they are the center of the world, finish robbing Africa and want to get involved in Asia, they will see how terrifying a truly complete Eastern empire is.

In order to maintain the control of the imperial power over the distant territories, in addition to sending important confidants as political envoys, weakening the importance of generals in the army, and propagating the new idea of 'serving the country, the people, and the king', it also relied on the development of transportation and newspapers.

The invention of the tricycle has given people who can't afford horses a means of transportation, which in turn has promoted the improvement of road quality. Road repair has always been the focus of the Ministry of Engineering, and it is not worse than water conservancy projects, as for the former large project of building the emperor's tomb, it has long been thrown into the corner by Shenzong. However, if someone asks for the repair of the imperial tomb, it will not be long before they are sent to a certain construction site as a supervisor, and so far, the site selection of the 'divine tomb' or the preparation of the coffin has not been determined.

Newspapers are the only tool to ensure the transparency and accessibility of government decrees, and even if officials who disobey the government are caught endlessly, at least there is a way to complain, and the policies conveyed from Shangjing will not change in the city of Zaisan Lake or Pingyi. However, it also had a side impact on the Confucian Confucian and Mencian doctrine that advocated 'rule by etiquette, rule by virtue, and rule by man', and changed to 'rule according to law, and religion by etiquette'. The controversy between reason and law has often become the subject of newspapers, but the government and the opposition have gradually recognized the principle of 'punishment for violating the law', and the prince and prince, who have been cut down many times, dare not challenge the authority of the law at will.

In fact, this is not surprising, the size of the integration of monarchs and subjects in the Confucian and Mencian era was not large, and the information was transparent, and the policy would not be deformed, so that the bond could be established by relying on ethics. Now a letter is sent from the southernmost Nanyu mine in the north of Nanzhou to the northwestern Anyi City, and it will take almost a year at the earliest, there is no open and fair law, only the so-called 'ritual law', once the local emperor who holds the local clan power and the officials sent from abroad collude, the people's livelihood and economy are controlled, which is not necessarily a good thing for the increasingly wealthy cross-regional businessmen.

Under the compulsion of the Chinese industry, all kinds of new or old goods are gradually fixed to an industry standard, and on this basis, the business of China Insurance Company has gradually expanded from maritime trade to other aspects. With the 'national brand' as a guarantee, other private industries that Chinese companies have not set foot in have also spontaneously formed guilds of various sizes in the corresponding regions to seek insurance business, and thus learned the 'industry standard'.

When the requirements of standardization and digitalization gradually become the most important basis for measuring government affairs, economy, military and other aspects, this impact is reflected in the ********, which is the dispute between etiquette and the new law. Facts always speak louder than words, and numbers always prove the facts most directly and clearly, so it is inevitable that religion will gradually decline.

The Suez Canal project is the most important link between Dayu and the West, and the merchants who come and go bring the history and experience of Europe and the Great Food, and every year more and more new translations of the "Literature Dictionary" are printed, and the strange stories of the West are often on the stage in the countryside, even the illiterate people who sell wontons in the mountain villages know that the earth is round, and there are a group of people with different looks and languages on the other side of the sea. Europeans, you can see it if you go to a port, our ancestors have never seen so many rare things, maybe one day, they will come to our ravines to mine!

There is no blind 'admiration for foreigners', there is no complete 'breaking of the four olds', the Chinese nation has not experienced the red wave of fanaticism and ignorance, will not completely deny the millennium precipitation, maintain the superiority of civilization, absorb Western culture, supplement the knowledge gap, and add more tolerance and curiosity to the local culture.

The Eastern Giant turned around slowly, although the movement was very weak, although it was very difficult, but did not close his eyes and fell asleep.

***********************

After the "Border Order", the second and third princes who were already crowned finally got permission, and Kaichun took the eleven-year-old fourth prince to the canal construction site, and the remaining cousins of the Gu family, who had not been far away last time, could follow. The three princes held the letter of appointment of Yi Qingfa and the title of external auditor of the China Canal Company, and traveled collectively at public expense.

The person who really got the external auditor qualification certificate was the youngest fourth prince Yuan Wang, and the person who really went to work there was Xie Qiwei, and he also brought several brothers of the Xie family, Xie Lian's sons Xie Qiwu and Xie Qicheng, Xie Pang's son Xie Qirong, etc. True? The leader of the army is Xia Bufan, who took the initiative to invite Ying, he will board the ship in Longmen City, his position is temporarily replaced by Ren Shuo, and Lu Quhai's brother Lu Guanhai replaces Ren Shuo and is stationed in Saigon and Cam Ranh Bay.

The queen who sent her sons away sat in the small study, patting her grandson Xiao Ran and her youngest daughter Jiajia Gu Yuan on the back in amazement, and coaxed them to take a nap. Xiao Ran is only two months younger than the two little aunts, and the three younger ones have reached the age of three, and they followed the eighty-six-year-old Xiao Lu to enlightenment in the Chongwen Pavilion together, going to school for half a day every day, taking a nap in Kunning Palace. Tomorrow is their recess, Xiao Ran and Jiajia wake up and play for a while, and then they will go back to Qingyiyuan.

Yiqing in front of the other bookcase was holding Yaya Xie Dan lovingly, and the little girl's row of millet teeth was white and neat, smiling non-stop, without any sleep. Although Xie Dan was nominally his niece, he felt that this little baby was the daughter that Gu Ci gave birth to him. Since she was born, her exclusive small bed has been placed in the small study, as long as Yiqing does not go out, she must stay by the bedside, whether the little bun is crying and playing, or eating, drinking and Lazar, he is patient and stops the urgent matter at hand to deal with it, and is more conscientious than Gu Ci, who is a mother.

The extremely jealous emperor could only sneak over and get close to him from time to time, thinking that Yaya might get closer to him in the future, and often hugged another daughter sourly and glared at him. But if he didn't help take care of the children, Gu Ci couldn't take care of the two babies alone, and the small study was not a place that anyone could easily approach.

Say a thousand things and ten thousand, you can only endure it!

The child is very important, and the child's mother can't ignore it, Yiqing finally let the little girl squint, put it into the bed lightly, and comforted Gu Ci in a low voice, "Don't worry, the 'Tianlong' is walking along the coast, with General Xia here, it is safe." ”

The University of Grey had already made an octant of astronomical navigation, and the Andong Navy made several direct voyages between Hanes Island-Ceylon-Longmen to find out the hydroclimatic conditions, and the sailing time was reduced to less than two months, and the pirates of the shortest Barsudan and Tianzhu were cleared to go around almost all the ships flying the flag of Dayu.

"Eh, I'm not just worried about safety," Gu Ci was a little confused, not knowing how to express it, "It seems that I, as a mother, can't help the children too much......"

If she could still have a prediction of the 'world situation' before she was assassinated, after a few years, the so-called history has long been like a wild horse with a prolapsed anus, spreading its hooves and running endlessly. As a pure housewife, in addition to attending the occasion where the queen should appear, she met some internal and external wives, and completely devoted herself to the cause of raising children, circling around her two little daughters. Suddenly, when he learned that his three sons had set sail for the sea, he realized that he had no idea what Europe was becoming now, and that he had to pay attention to where there was danger.

In addition, the three princes were released at once, and many people outside thought that this was an opportunity specially set aside by the emperor for the crown prince, so that he could consolidate his power and compete for favor, and it was inevitable that there would be undercurrents. When Ah Sheng was fifteen, he determined the position of the crown prince without any suspense, and after he returned from his mission, except for the participation of the dynasties in politics, there was no outstanding performance. And Ah Shuang has traveled all over the Quartet Army in recent years, Ah Sang has been reporting to the Privy Council every day, and the youngest Ah Wei has almost become Yiqing's full-time little secretary, except for going to GLI University, he is following Yiqing to hold meetings and take accounts. In the eyes of others, these performances are simply a signal that Shenzong is afraid of the prince, not only let the two princes divide the military power, but also divide the largest financial resources in the inner treasury. Although Gu Ci didn't think that her sons would fight each other for a throne, she really had no clue about the way out for the princes, even if Yuan Yi asked her for advice.

IT'S LIKE, WORKING HARD TO GET A MASTER'S DEGREE AND A DOCTORATE, AND WORKING HARD TO MAKE A WORLD WITH THE BOSS WHO IS ENGAGED IN SYMBIAN, BUT IN ORDER TO HAVE A CHILD, HE RESIGNED IN ORDER TO HAVE A CHILD, AND WHEN THE BABY WENT TO KINDERGARTEN TO BE RELIEVED, HE CAME OUT TO LOOK FOR A JOB, ONLY TO FIND THAT THE WORLD IS CHANGING TOO FAST, AND THE MOBILE PHONE OPERATING SYSTEM HAS CHANGED TO IOS AND ANDROID! The previous resume is a blank slate!

Housewives have been out of society for too long, and their thinking is outdated!

***********************

In the evening, Yuan Yi ended her official duties early and came back early to accompany her wife, knowing that she must be unhappy to send her three sons away in one go, so she deliberately 'encouraged' Yiqing to take Yaya out to play and appease Gu Ci alone.

As a result, hearing her complain like this, the Emperor of Shenzong laughed out loud, "How old are they, how can they let you worry about it anymore?" ”

"I probably can't really help much!" The old husband and wife, Gu Ci never tabooed anything because he was the emperor, and sighed lightly, "Is it possible, in the future, I will be a daylily who doesn't ask about the world?" Watching you tired like this? ”

The stall is big, Yuan Yi and Yiqing are now busy people, sleeping less than six hours a day, and often busy until midnight. Nearly fifty people in the secretariat handled the case for Emperor Shenzong, and in this way, the abridgement that required him to personally review the matter every day was no less than an Oxford dictionary. Yiqing has to manage such a huge multinational company, and he also has to take time to take the pulse of the family every ten years. If she hadn't come up with so many ideas, she wouldn't have made the two of them tired like this, this is an ancient time without computers and OA systems!

Gu Ci hugged her husband distressedly, next year will be his fiftieth birthday, and he has gray hair on both sideburns.

"I had already left the affairs of the Western Regions, Kangzang, Dali and the Northeast to Ah Sheng," Yuan Yi hugged her and kissed her comfortingly, "When these children come back, let them choose their own places." ”

"Choose?"

Yuan Yi pondered for a long time before he said solemnly, "I plan to let them take over the domain." ”

Gu Ci was distressed at first, and after a while, Yuan Yi knew what she was worried about, and hurriedly added, "Where to let them discuss with Ah Sheng by themselves, besides, it is not difficult to come back once a year, and in the future, the grandchildren will have to be put in Beijing and raised until they are ten years old before they can go back." ”

“…… It's just reluctant to let them work hard. Thinking about the glowing eyes of his sons when they sent Gu Yi away, Gu Ci sighed and didn't say anything.

Self-made, domesticated savages, even a piece of bricks and tiles have to be burned on the ground, and the young son of the dignified protector of the country, there is not just a simple matter of enduring hardship. Fortunately, the shipping routes and transshipment routes have been completed, and the east and west coasts of Dongzhou have begun to gain popularity, and the few Han people have brought planting and horses, and the local Inca natives are quite friendly, hoping that there will be no more massacres of genocide.

At first, she just wanted to flap her little wings and point out the most likely direction to her husband, but she didn't expect to get such an amazing result in this land where the geography has changed. But for those who stand tallest, it is not surprising at all, the extra Zhuanjiang River has increased the difficulty of the northern Taoma men to enter the game in the south, so there are no pure nomadic victors such as Yuan and Qing. With a more closed structure, emperors who want to achieve hegemony will naturally consider developing in other directions, and the Chinese inheritance of the Western Regions, Kangzang, Annam, Goryeo, and Dongying has never been broken.

Now that you have opened the sea enclosure, you are one step ahead, and you can formulate your own rules and gameplay, is it possible to give it up in the future?
