Chapter 629: The War Will Begin
Gao Shun and the others arrived in Guidu City, Ma Gui was very happy, this time his life span increased by sixty years, and he was simply rejuvenated.
Ma Gui first reported to Gao Shun on the development of the past few years and the situation of the Roman Empire, the provinces of the Roman Empire became independent one after another, and Spain, Gaul, Germania, Macedonia, Gregoria and other countries were established on the original territory.
In recent years, Ma Gui has not been idle, and the territory has expanded a lot to the south, extending south along the Nile, reaching the confluence of the Blue Nile and the White Nile, and building a rammed earth city there.
The situation in the Roman Empire was exactly what Gao Shun wanted to see; Gao Shun was very satisfied with the development of the Egyptian Empire.
Now Ma Gui's second son is in his forties, and his grandson is almost an adult, so Ma Gui wants to pass on the throne to his second son, so that he can follow Gao Shun to warlord more territory.
Gao Shun smiled: "Okay, I was just about to tell you about this, after we leave this time, the possibility of coming back is very small, you have to explain everything clearly." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty! You hope that you will leave some trap camps for Xiao'er as guards, and Your Majesty will grant permission. Ma Gui asked again.
Gao Shun did not refuse, and said: "Okay, leave eight hundred, no more, now the armed forces of the Egyptian Empire are already very strong; The strength of your three empires is almost the same, the number of strong crossbowmen and bed crossbowmen is the same, and the number of high-level cavalry and high-level infantry is not much different; The only difference is that the navies of the Egyptian Empire and the Western Wei Empire were stronger, while the navy of the Anxi Empire was slightly worse, so the Anxi Empire had 3,600 more camps. ”
Ma Gui was very happy and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
Over the next two months, Ma Gui passed the throne of the Egyptian Empire to his second son and explained everything he could think of; Now his martial arts value is very high, and his resourcefulness is not low, and Gao Shun has raised the intelligence of his second son and grandson to the level of 88, making it easier to communicate with each other.
Gao Shun took advantage of this time to walk around, and to his surprise, the first children born here began to read, and there were many private schools in the villages, towns, and cities teaching children to read; Hearing the immature sound of reading, Gao Shun's mind was very uneasy, thinking back to his life as a child, it was in stark contrast to today's children, and I hope that this peace can be maintained for a long time.
But he knew that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, peace is built after killing, and peace must be backed by strong military strength.
Ma Gui's second son married Fang Liang's daughter, and Fang Liang was also very happy with this arrangement, after all, the current emperor is his son-in-law, and the future emperor of the Egyptian Empire is his grandson.
Everyone picked up Li Qiang and went to Ctesiphon, the capital of the Rest Empire.
Sun Cheng was asked to pass the throne to his second son, and transferred 800 officers and soldiers from the trap camp to the Western Wei Empire, as the royal guard of the Western Wei Empire, specifically responsible for the security of the palace.
Sun Cheng reported to Gao Shun about the local situation, and what satisfied him the most was that several empires were now in good contact with the country and the kingdoms along the way, and there were constant trade policies and exchanges.
Gao Shun was relieved to learn that the domestic situation was stable; What saddened him was that many of the people who followed him in the world have passed away.
When everyone arrived in Ankara, Xiang Rong was already waiting; The arrival of everyone made him feel a lot more relieved.
Xiang Rong first suggested to Gao Shun: "Your Majesty, the Roman Empire is now unable to bear the heavy responsibility of resisting the barbarians, rather than leaving them to waste resources, it is better to take advantage of the situation to destroy them; The newly established kingdom of Macedonia and other countries are developing very strongly, and we have to take precautions, or take precautions, and it is better to eliminate them in advance. ”
Gao Shun smiled: "Hahaha, I like this suggestion, then you discuss the attack plan first." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Everyone took over this task, but most of the work was undertaken by Li Qiang, Ma Gui, Sun Cheng and others.
Xiang Rong was busy passing on to his son; This time, Gao Shun transferred 800 officers and soldiers from the Rest Empire, which made him very happy.
What has not yet been canonized are the eleven grandsons of the people and the seven grandsons of Gao Shun, who are now all over twenty years old, and Gao Shun is ready to train them well in the next war, and then divide the territory of Europe to everyone; Gao Shun's other eldest grandson has been crowned Emperor of the Huaxia Empire (South Africa).
On the territory of Europe, Gao Shun is not ready to build a large empire, but to build more small empires, otherwise, with so many people, the territory is not enough; The best location in Spain, France, and England, Gao Shun planned to canonize his three grandsons, and the remaining four grandsons, Gao Shun was ready to take to the Americas, where he would establish four Han empires and a large number of small Han kingdoms.
A month later, Xiang Rong's second son ascended the throne and became emperor of the Western Wei Empire.
Ma Gui, Li Qiang and others also couldn't wait to report their plans to Gao Shun.
Gao Shun said with a smile: "Haha, your martial arts are very high, there is no need to concentrate together, so I plan, this time to send troops in multiple ways, and all the children are adults, we must let them participate in the war, let them know the cruelty of the war, and at the same time let them realize that there is only one end of defeat, that is, death, which is very beneficial for them to manage the country after that, instead of always being closely protected under our wings, not experiencing wind and rain, and will always be children who will not grow up." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, just follow your plan." Ma Gui said busily.
Gao Shun pointed to the map and continued: "I led a team from here to destroy the rebels in the Gallic region of Spain, and then launched an attack on the Germanic provinces; Meng Zhen led his troops across the strait to destroy the independent kingdoms of the eastern Roman Empire; Meng Wen led his troops from here to exterminate the nomads in the north; Zizhuang Ling has a task, that is, to lead the troops to the Kushan Empire, to establish a grassland kingdom on the territory of the Kushan Empire, the capital can be in Ferghana or in the Huotura Basin, and the king of this kingdom will be Zizhuang's grandson, so that it is easy to get the support of the Xiliang Kingdom; Subsequently, Zizhuang led the cavalry of the Kushan Empire to wipe out the barbarians in the area east of the river. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." The crowd should go down.
Ma Gui asked again: "Your Majesty, are we still going to exterminate all the alien races this time?" I hope to keep more slaves, otherwise the strength will decline too much. ”
Gao Shun retorted: "No, you must not have a merciful heart, you must cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise there will be endless troubles; All the nobles and citizens of the old and weak must be beheaded, even slaves, and only some strong slaves must be kept, and they must have beautiful daughters to be concubines of our officers and soldiers; We must take advantage of this war to wipe out all the aliens, so that this land can be regarded as the territory of our Han people. ”
Gao Shun felt that Li Qiang and Zhao Xiong led the army to wipe out all the nomads on the grassland, and they would not be threatened by the nomads for at least a hundred years, so he was not worried that the weakening of his strength would lead to barbarian invasion; What's more important is that his life span has increased too much now, if he conquers most of the Americas, then his life span will increase a lot, and after he stabilizes the affairs of the Americas, he will still have the opportunity to return here, and at that time, he will send troops again to sweep the steppe barbarians, so that he can keep these kingdoms stable for a hundred years.
Now that Gao Shun has decided, everyone no longer insists and begins to prepare for the expedition.
