Sun Yang was shocked by Xu Shu's answer, he didn't expect that Xu Shu was already the object of expansion after five years in his heart!

"Yuan Zhi, let's talk about it, are you going to go north, or south?" Sun Yang continued to ask, in his heart, if Hanzhong wants to continue to expand, there are only two ways to go, one is to learn from Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, to attack Guanzhong and use Guanzhong as a springboard to sweep the world; The second is to go south to take Yizhou, the country of abundance, the wealth of Yizhou, their power will expand rapidly in a short period of time, don't you see that Shu Han is almost a state and Wei Wu are tied for the three kingdoms?

After hearing the two places proposed by Sun Yang, Xu Shu smiled and shook his head, on the surface, these two places are the best and most important places in Hanzhong to attack in the future, but in Xu Shu's opinion, these two places are not the places he wants.

"Not these two places? That's weird! …… Yuan Zhi, could it be that you want to go east to Jingzhou? Looking at Xu Shu shaking his head, Sun Yang was very surprised, if it weren't for these two places, then according to common sense, maybe Xu Shu wanted to go east into Jingzhou! In Sun Yang's heart, this is a good direction, as long as Xu Shu can take Jingzhou smoothly and connect with Yangzhou, where Wu County is located, then the entire south of the world will be completely in his hands, although almost only the later Ming Dynasty succeeded in the history of the southern expedition to the north, but Sun Yang does not mind staging this geographically impossible miracle more than a thousand years in advance!

Just when Sun Yang was secretly admiring Xu Shu's foresight, Xu Shu's reaction shocked Sun Yang, Xu Shu's ideal direction was not Jingzhou!

"Yuanzhi, it's not the land of Guanzhong, it's not Yizhou, it's not Jingzhou, do you still want to go west and capture Longnan, the land of Liangzhou?" Sun Yang said angrily, he knew that choosing to attack not only the land of Liangzhou, where there were few people, but also the people were fierce and the land was barren, this was a place that no clear-eyed person would choose! If you go there, you might as well stay in Hanzhong!

But this time Sun Yang was disappointed again, Xu Shu smiled when he heard Sun Yang say that the land of Liangzhou in Longnan was right, and he meant to go west into the north of Shu and the land of Longnan!

"Yuanzhi, your head isn't faint, right? What do we do in places that are useless to influence the world? Liangzhou is the poorest state in the world, and not only are all forces intertwined here, but foreign races are also eyeing and often invading, not to mention whether we can use Liangzhou to do anything, even how to attack Liangzhou and defend Liangzhou is not a simple matter! ”

Sun Yang didn't know how Xu Shu had the whimsical idea to capture the land of Liangzhou, but in Sun Yang's own opinion, he felt that the land of Liangzhou could be suspended, and when he took advantage of the pride of dominating the world in the future, Liangzhou would naturally be in his pocket, and even the lost land in the Western Regions could be recovered by Sun Yang!

"Childe, what you said is reasonable, if we want to capture Liangzhou, it is indeed a difficult thing, but Childe, you must understand that Liangzhou has what we lack the most in the future! In other words, do you know what was the most difficult thing for us to capture Liangzhou? Xu Shu smiled and said, this hides the purpose of why he chose to attack Liangzhou!

"The biggest difficulty for us to attack Liangzhou?" Sun Yang repeated it in his mouth, and immediately reacted, if they want to take or hold Liangzhou, the most lacking thing is, of course, the war horse! With enough war horses, you can train enough cavalry, and with enough cavalry, isn't it a very simple thing to gallop through Liangzhou, which is almost a flat horse? Even, it is not difficult to learn from Huo Qu's illness and seal the wolf Juxu, and teach the aliens of the grassland a hard lesson!

"War horses! Yuan Zhi, do you mean that the attack on Liangzhou is for the sake of war horses? ”

"That's right! Childe, it seems that you have understood this, now what we lack most is war horses and cavalry, with war horses and cavalry, we have a better grasp of seizing the world! This time, Xu Shu put away his smile, but said very seriously, that's right, everything he wants to do is for the war horse!

"Have you thought about it, Childe, now the world is about to be in chaos, and in terms of the forces we have or will have now, the war horse is the most lacking. There are no horses in Hanzhong, there is no place to raise horses, and it is even more impossible in Wu County, and it is almost impossible in the whole of Yangzhou! Xu Shu continued, he knew very well that it was impossible to expand with their power, and it was impossible to have a cavalry that would make the world fearful and win the world on horseback for them!

After listening to Xu Shu's words, Sun Yang fell into deep contemplation, he understood that Xu Shu was right, the status of the war horse in the current position is equivalent to the mobile force of later generations, not only strong combat power, but also fast action, with a strong cavalry, many impossible things have become possible!

But Sun Yang still had a little hesitation in his heart, although the cavalry was said to be born as the nemesis of the infantry, but Sun Yang, who came from later generations, knew very well that the infantry wanted to defeat the cavalry as long as the tactics were right, it could be achieved. And at least in the next ten years, Sun Yang knew that he would have very few cavalry to use, and it was feasible for him to use his financial resources to form a cavalry that was not weak.

In Sun Yang's heart, the existence of Hanzhong, he is preparing for Guanzhong! According to his meaning, the first priority in Hanzhong is to seize the land of Guanzhong! Because there is not only Chang'an, an extremely important city in the world, but also the homeland of the old Qin people.

Even if the land of Guanzhong has gone through a great drought one after another, and Chang'an has lost its status as the political center of the Han Dynasty, and the people are almost empty, Sun Yang still does not want to give up there, because the land of Guanzhong is not only an important terrain, as long as the weather is good, the extremely perfect agriculture there will also bring him a lot of food, in other words, Sun Yang wants to use the land of Guanzhong to lay a good foundation for him!

Xu Shu saw that Sun Yang had not answered for a long time, and he knew that the reason why Sun Yang could not answer him at the first time was that Sun Yang had a plan in his heart. In any case, Xu Shu had to persuade Sun Yang to take the land of Liangzhou first, because whether he went south or north, although he made great profits on the surface, the long-term benefits were not as good as the benefits of taking Liangzhou!

After a little thought, Xu Shu thought of the place that Sun Yang wanted to attack, that is, the land of Guanzhong, because Xu Shu had heard Sun Yang mention the land of Guanzhong more than once, and it was obvious that Sun Yang was extremely concerned about the land of Guanzhong, and the purpose, what Sun Yang could think of, Xu Shu could naturally think of.

"Childe, I guess the reason why you are so hesitant is that you want to use the soldiers of Hanzhong to capture the land of Guanzhong, right? I don't deny that the land of Guanzhong is indeed a good place for us, but have you ever thought about it, Gongzi, Chang'an is in the hinterland of the land of Guanzhong, although it has lost its status as the capital of the Han Dynasty, but nominally, Chang'an is still the capital of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years, if it is occupied by outsiders, we will not become the target of the public, and it will attract the people of the world to attack it! Xu Shu Chen complained about the disadvantages of seizing the land of Guanzhong.

"Also, have you thought about it, Childe, if the old Qin people return to their homeland, they must restore their ancestors, then when the news leaks out, the descendants of the Qin State appear, what do you think the people of the world will do? What about those loyal to the Han family? Childe, in the land of Guanzhong, we must not take it down too soon! Xu Shu continued to persuade that if outsiders discovered the existence of the descendants of the Qin State, it would not be a good thing waiting for them!

Sun Yang, who was still hesitant, suddenly hesitated even more after listening to Xu Shu's words, yes, he forgot that the descendants of the old Qin people must not be discovered when the Han dynasty was still extremely powerful, and what was waiting for them must be infinite pursuit, not necessarily, the general trend of the world will undergo unimaginable drastic changes because of this, which is something that Sun Yang absolutely cannot accept! Sun Yang prefers the world to follow the script of the original history first, because he is familiar with this history, and he can get greater benefits from it!
