Chapter 35 Development Depends on Plunder

In the room, Wu Meiniang was still dealing with the things in the court, raised her head and saw Li Shen push open the door of the room and walk in, smiled slightly, and said, "Why did you come to the concubine tonight?" ”

"It's not too early, why are you still dealing with official business?"

"It's over soon, it's just some more urgent things, and we have to do it tomorrow." Wu Meiniang yawned slightly and said.

Li Shen nodded slightly.

Wu Meiniang then smiled again and said, "Are you satisfied now?" ”

"What nonsense, what are you satisfied with, isn't that it."

"By the way, what the hell is going on with that woman? It can't be that you want to be included in the back house again, right? ”

"Who?"

"What do you say?" Wu Meiniang said angrily.

"You don't know who you say this clearly, how do I know who it is?"

"It's the woman who came with Yirou."

"That's her master."

“”

“”

The next day, I slept until the sun rose, and when I got up, the bed next to me was already cold, and Wu Meiniang had developed a habit for many years, even if she slept late at night, she would still wake up at about five or six o'clock every day.

After washing up, the little eunuch guarding outside the door came to tell Su Dingfang that he was already waiting in the hall.

"The minister has seen Your Majesty." Su Dingfang watched Li Shen walk in, hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and gave a military salute and shouted.

Li Shen looked at Su Dingfang with a smile on his face, went back to clean up, and sure enough, the whole person was much more energetic, nodded, and said, "Sit down." ”

"How's it going?" Li Shen then asked.

Su Dingfang picked up the information placed on the table and handed it to Li Shen, and said: "The specific situation is written in it, including the situation of the countries in Fanbang, as well as some geomorphological features along the way, which are relatively hurried and not very specific, but the general situation is still very clear. ”

Li Shen took the thick document, looked at it casually, nodded slightly, although the map was not very well depicted, but he could also know where the specific location was, including the estimated area of the mountains and forests, put the document down, looked at Su Dingfang, and said, "Tell me your opinion." ”

"The area is too large, the population is sparse, at present, according to the minister, it is not suitable to march over there, the key is that the distance is too far, but the big food country can take it, that is, there are more mountains and forests over there, which is very unfavorable for the war, once people hide in the mountains and forests, if you want to find them out, I am afraid it will be very difficult, and now the land area of the Tang Dynasty, the people do not need to move at present, once they have migrated, these people come out of the mountains and forests, it is very unfavorable for the people." Su Dingfang said with a frown.

Some don't quite understand why Li Shen did this, the territory of the Tang Dynasty and now that Tubo and Turkia have been completely included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, there is no need to continue to expand, even if it does, it is not the right time in his opinion.

Originally, the population in Datang was not large, and many places were barren, according to the current population of Datang, if these places in Datang could be reclaimed, it would already be very good.

Why choose to travel thousands of miles? Even if these places are in the hands of Datang, what is the use? It's not put there yet.

Li Shen nodded and said: "Even so, these lands are already in our hands, I don't know if even if we don't need things ourselves, it's not a bad thing to put them there, not to mention the land, the resources under the ground are an infinite treasure, and there are too many nations in this world, and the earth is so big, it can only be provided for the development and use of a nation, and it is easy to cause too fierce competition to use, and sooner or later this planet will be destroyed by excessive exploitation by people, I'm just getting things done ahead of schedule and leaving a way back for our children and grandchildren. ”

The earth is so big, and the rate of human reproduction is faster than that of any species, as a modern person, Li Shen certainly knows, and he has also decided that Huaxia will implement the imperial system to control, so that all the forces of the country can be used to develop, and this will be written into the law, and no one can destroy it.

There are only so many resources on the earth, and sooner or later they will be exhausted, so what will happen at that time?

As long as the Chinese nation controls this piece of planet and uses the strength of the whole country to develop the level of science and technology, it may be able to go to outer space in a few hundred years and find a place that can provide human survival.

Now that he is here, he will definitely do these things, and he will also give the people who have lived on this land for thousands of years a stable and peaceful environment, even in the future, they can continue to survive.

"Since Your Majesty has said so, what else can the minister say." Su Dingfang said with a wry smile, who can know what will happen in the future, I don't know how many years I have to wait, to put it mildly, it is unknown whether Datang can still exist at that time, think so far, is it necessary? Of course, he didn't have the courage to say these words.

"By the way, how is the situation when you go to the countries of the Western Regions?"

"It's okay, how can I say that the reputation of Datang has spread over there, and the countries in the Western Regions are relatively cooperative, and they haven't done anything embarrassing."

Li Shen nodded slightly, this is also something he has long expected, in history, the Tang Dynasty was able to borrow troops from the Western Regions, not to mention the current Tang Dynasty, not only completely wiped out the Turks, but also completely incorporated Tubo into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the news must have spread to the countries of the Western Regions, not to mention that the combat effectiveness of the new army cannot be hidden from anyone at all, in the face of the combat effectiveness of the new army, as long as those who understand will make a choice.

After a brief conversation, Li Shen also instructed the future cleaning of the surrounding countries, and let Su Dingfang leave, as long as he explained these things, Su Dingfang only needed to follow his instructions.

Li Shen is imperative to expand into Europe and Africa, although Africa is too barren, but there are many more resources buried under its land than anywhere else, how can Li Shen let go of these resources easily.

Things must be tightly held in our hands, even if they are not needed at present, they will definitely be able to be used when the time comes, and the resources of those places can be mined first, and the things on our own land can be kept and kept for future generations to make good use of.

A country's development depends on plundering other people's resources, and how can we talk about development without plundering.
