As the king of soldiers in the previous life, Wang Yu's own conditions needless to say, and he has the advantage of a prophet, and his luck at the beginning of the start is also very good.

If you want to do this, it is not enough to sweep away the heroes and establish a new dynasty, even if you kill all the nomadic tribes on the grassland, it is useless, as long as you still use the previous set, you can't escape the fate of the rise and fall of the dynasty and the reincarnation of hundreds of years.

The answer that Wang Yu has prepared is a comprehensive expansion strategy to completely reverse the fate of Chinese civilization!

Think about it, when did the Chinese civilization become synonymous with humility and forbearance? Wang Yu is not very sure, but the impression that Chinese civilization is weak does exist, so later generations have the so-called great revival.

This may be related to the restrained foreign strategy pursued by the Central Plains Dynasty from the Song Dynasty onwards. If you have strength but are not domineering, or you are simply strong from the outside, and without strength, of course you will be treated as a weakling.

In fact, not only in the Song and Ming dynasties, but even in the most proud Han and Tang dynasties, the Central Plains Dynasty did not implement a thorough expansion policy. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, not only did they all return the rivers and mountains that were defeated in the Han Dynasty, but they also almost lost the land of Sanfu; The territory of the middle and late Tang Dynasty was also far smaller than that at the beginning of the founding of the country, and even less than that of the early Ming Dynasty.

The real period of continuous expansion of Chinese civilization was in the pre-Qin era, which many people did not know much about, and there were few relevant records.

At the beginning of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, Chinese civilization was still confined to the Yellow River Valley, and waited until the Spring and Autumn Period. The vast territory south of the Yangtze River has been developed to a certain extent. By the time of the Warring States Period, the territory of China had basically been finalized. In this long period. How much has the Chinese civilization expanded tenfold?

The root cause is nothing more than a truth, there is competition to have pressure, and there is pressure to have motivation. The princes' territory is their own, and in order to gain greater power, they naturally have to go all out to open up. Permitted by the system and driven by interests, in the hundreds of years after the alternation of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, Chinese civilization was able to expand outward at an extremely strong speed.

That's why Wang Yu had the idea of extraterritorial separation.

People are selfish. Only when you are fighting for yourself can you exert all your strength, even beyond the ordinary.

The expansion of the pre-Qin era was stopped only after encountering the moat in several directions outward, and then there was a situation of fighting for hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

At that time, the technical conditions were limited, and expansion was indeed a bottleneck, but now it is different. With Wang Yu, the technical productivity has also improved a lot compared to before, and Wang Yu naturally has to consider the unfinished work of the ancestors.

In the history of China, a successful expansion policy. There is really only one such case, and the West has an Age of Discovery. The two cases are two or three thousand years apart, but the core spirit is the same. Divide and delegate power. And then there will be tangible expansion.

How different can there be between those overseas governors and princes in the era of the Great Voyage? Send a message back and forth. It will take months or even years, where can we talk about effective control? What the mainland offers is better living conditions and more advanced technology, the former attracting adventurers to go back and throwing money around, and the latter guaranteeing the advantage of the local government over the overseas market, and that's it.

Perhaps it was because I read too many fantasy novels in later generations, so that the heroes of the Three Kingdoms era would not shed their blood in infighting, but turned into a force to promote historical progress, which was also something that Wang Yu was looking forward to.

Although what Ma Dai said was just a hypothesis that he didn't believe, Wang Yu really wanted to try it to see if he could subdue Cao Cao and Sun Ce and make them the vanguard of China's foreign expansion.

Of course, there must be a limit to expansion, and whether a larger Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States will be staged in the future, Wang Yu can't say. But it is very likely, even in the Age of Discovery, there were local wars such as the American Revolutionary War, and finally ended with two world wars?

But Wang Yu still wants to try, if he doesn't try, how do you know that it won't work? Anyway, he knew that it would definitely not work to unify the Central Plains step by step, and then ascend the throne and become emperor, which has been proven by thousands of years of history.

Wang Yu has more than 2,000 years of Chinese and foreign knowledge, and it is not strange to have this in mind, but Ma Dai is just a military general of the Han Dynasty, where can he think clearly about the logic in this for a while? was surrounded by Wang Yu's words, and he was immediately confused.

Frowning and thinking for a long time, he only partially understood, knowing that Wang Yu's vow not to be the emperor really had a deep meaning, and he would not tear the earth and seal the king in the inherent territory of the Han Dynasty.

In this era, there is no national concept, Wang Yu's behavior, Ma Dai can only understand it from his own point of view, thinking that this is another way of saying that others are not allowed to sleep on the side of the couch, and it may also be a legend that Wang Yu hates the Hu people.

It took a long time to sort out his thoughts, and after a while, Ma Dai raised his head and said in a deep voice: "The general's meaning has been understood. But Xiliang Zhuqiang is different from the Xiongnu and Xianbei, they are also the people of the Han Dynasty, but they have been oppressed too much, so they have repeatedly rebelled, and there is no disrespect for the imperial court. ”

After that, he solemnly saluted, and as soon as he shook it to the ground, his expression and tone were extremely sincere: "Uncle General's temper is a little arrogant, Zhuqiang has been oppressed too much, and a lot of grievances have accumulated in his chest, and now the Central Plains is already tense, even if the general does not think about himself, he should also think about the people of the world!" ”

Wang Yu was so angry that he wanted to laugh, so he said that the pedantic reader is not the most terrible, the most terrible is the half-hung reader. Ma Dai's clichés, it couldn't be easier to refute them, but look at Ma Dai's expression, quite solemn look, there is not the slightest trace of falsification, if you refute it, you will really have to turn your face if you don't do it.

Wang Yu didn't want to make trouble to that point, there was no room for compromise between him and the Xiliang army, and the battle would definitely have to be fought, otherwise it would be better to let hundreds of thousands of Qianghu move to the heart of the Central Plains, such as Bingzhou and Hedong? Sooner or later, we're going to have to make a big mess. Although Wang Yu's historical knowledge is limited, he still remembers the Wuhu of Chaohua, and the Qiang people are one of the main forces!

Still, hit it down. He doesn't have to completely eliminate the other party, Xiliang Jin Ma Chao. is also a very popular celebrity, defeating the momentum of Xiliang people. It is the most perfect to let them obediently follow the routine of Pingbeice.

If you want to achieve this goal, you need a bridge, and the Ma Dai that you send to the door is precious.

"It is not difficult for Zhuqiang to move to the Central Plains, but the racial defense must be disregarded, and they must be broken into pieces, put on Chinese clothes, learn Chinese language and culture, and truly regard themselves as the people of the Han Dynasty. Do you think this is possible? ”

"Since the general said so, then the general has nothing to say." A trace of green gas flashed on Ma Dai's face, and he seemed to be a little annoyed, but he still didn't say anything after all, and sighed, looking a little deflated.

……

Compared with Wang Yu and Ma Dai, who are not speculative, Ma Yunluo and Lu Qiling are very happy to see each other.

Ma Yunluo was originally arranged to wait outside with the guards, but she was idle, and slipped out while she was staring at her guards without paying attention. Then he asked Lu Qiling everywhere in the mansion where she was.

No matter what era or place, beauties have unique advantages, and Ma Yunluo is pretty. The mouth is also sweet, although the guards have been informed that it is a peony with thorns. But she still agreed to her request.

It's not that the guards are obsessed with the tricks and even ignore the rules of military law. It's just that Wang Yu ordered in advance to be polite to Ma Dai and his party. It's not too urgent, just say yes. Ma Yunluo just wants to see Lu Qiling, who is strong in martial arts and is also an idle master, so why not meet him?

As for whether there will be an accident or something...... The guards in the army have all been on the battlefield, who has not seen the majesty of Mrs. Lu charging into battle and capturing the flag? What could happen? Someone went to ask for instructions right now.

The general's wife and the commander of the first army, no matter what level of identity, Lu Qiling has the right to participate in the secret, she is not interested in ordinary intelligence, I heard that there is a girl with the same martial arts who wants to see her, she is still very interested.

Originally, the guards were also worried that the two rare women would not let the strong woman with the eyebrows meet, whether it would be like their own lord meeting the little overlord of Jiangdong, and there would be a fierce collision or something, who knew that as soon as the two girls met, it would be like a handkerchief in a few words.

In addition to being relieved, the guards were also puzzled, and in the end they could only explain: no matter how strong a woman is, she is also a woman after all, and if she wants to maintain a strong image in front of outsiders, she doesn't need it in front of her kind.

The conjecture of the guards is actually slightly biased, the reason why the two girls hit it off at first sight is that there is a factor of sympathy for each other, but the main reason is because Ma Yunluo's mouth is very sweet, and the relationship between the two is more like the relationship between stars and fans.

"Sister Lu, you are in such a great figure, you are only two years older than me, but you are so much taller than me!"

"Sister Lu, your strength is so great, maybe you can try it with my eldest brother, you know who my eldest brother is, right? It was the one named Ma Chao who proposed to you that year, in fact, he wanted to come, but unfortunately the road was too far and the time was too late...... By the way, is it fun to recruit relatives in martial arts? I heard that you beat that hateful Cao Wenlie very miserably, you really deserve it! Why is Cao Wenlie hateful? That's a long story......"

Ma Yunluo pouted, what are the eyes without beads, soft bones, no manliness or something, and counted Cao Xiu fiercely, it seems that Cao Xiu was indeed angry at Cao Xiu's refusal to marry.

Lu Qiling also felt the same hatred for the enemy: "That Cao Xiu, what kind of horse is Cao Cao said he is, he can't even stop my little girl's ten moves, what kind of hero is it?" Sister rest assured, it won't be long before we have to go to war with Cao Cao, and I'll see my sister vent your anger when the time comes. ”

"Well, it's all up to my sister." Ma Yunluo nodded obediently, squinted his eyes and smiled happily. The sister of the Liang family is really right, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and finding a common enemy is the fastest way to pull the relationship.

The two daughters talked happily with each other, but for a while they forgot that each other's camp was also hostile, and just as the two were discussing how to become Jinlan sisters, Ma Dai came out with a cold face.

"Oh no, second brother's face, the matter must not have been negotiated!" Ma Yunluo shouted that it was not good.

"Doesn't that mean that when he sees you and my sisters again, they can only be in the battle array?" Lu Qiling came back to her senses, and for the first time, she felt that it was not such a wonderful thing to go into battle.

"This sister can rest assured, my father is an old stubborn, obviously he hasn't read a few books, and his family background is not very good. But I just want to learn the style of some high-ranking families, sister, I think it will definitely be impossible to go into battle. I just look forward to seeing each other on the battlefield in the coming days, and my sister will show mercy. Try not to hurt my second brother's life. ”

"Don't you have three older brothers?"

"Although the third brother and the fourth brother also practice martial arts, they don't plan to be military generals, but to be scholars, and they won't go into battle. As for the big brother...... He has a big temper, if he finds out who deliberately let him, it is really more serious than the revenge of killing his father, it must be a discord, don't pay attention to him, don't pay attention to him. The second brother called me. Sister, the green mountains do not change, the green water flows forever, and Yunluo will leave. ”

"Sister cherishes on the road," did Lu Qiling quite reluctant to meet a friend who could be said, and when she was saying goodbye, she suddenly seemed to remember something, "That's right." You wait here......" he asked, turned around and ran away.

Ma Yunluo was stunned, and was in a daze, when Ma Dai had already walked over. asked with a calm face: "Xiao Wu, you sneaked out again, who were you talking to just now?" ”

"Friends." Ma Yunluo had no intention of explaining a lot. Anxiously asked, "Second brother, why didn't the matter come to fruition?" Didn't you say you were going to show sincerity? ”

"Hey. There are so many wishful thoughts, what's the use of just being sincere? "I was sulked by my sister. Ma Dai sneered: "National defense? Although he doesn't read much and has limited knowledge, he has never heard of this kind of exquisiteness, what happened to the Qiang people? No matter how bad it is, can it be worse than those corrupt officials in the DPRK? ”

Ma Yunluo knew this taboo in the family, Ma Teng's brother's father Ma Ping's career was frustrated, he went to Xiliang, and married a Qiang girl, so the Ma brothers all have Qiang blood.

This bloodline has brought a lot of convenience, and the reason why Zhuqiang is the leader of Ma Teng is because of this relationship, which is regarded as his own person. This, in turn, made the Demateng brothers doubly discriminated against on the side of the Han Chinese.

The contradiction between Han Sui and Ma Teng comes from this. The former thinks that he is a famous man of the Han family and has a noble status, although he is also in the rebel army, he is still much more noble than Ma Teng. Ma Teng is also a thunderbolt with a fiery temper, where can he stand this? Naturally, he had to flip the table and turn his face.

The two have quarreled many times in recent years, although there are factors of competing for power and profit, but the root is in the difference between Han and Hu. Otherwise, there are so many leaders of the Xiliang rebels, Han Sui is only the nominal leader, and his strength is not much higher than others, why can't Ma Teng get along with him alone? is also because it is just a battle of will, the two are also fighting and peace, and they have not formed an inextricable mortal enmity.

The Qiang bloodline is a taboo in the Ma family, no one has ever dared to mention it, and they don't dare to murmur behind their backs, let alone mention it in front of the children of the Ma family.

Although Wang Yu didn't mention Ma Teng's Qiang bloodline, the smell of 'not my race, his heart will be different' revealed between his words and deeds also made Ma Dai uncomfortable.

Now, he finally understands why he has never dealt with each other, but his uncle's hostility towards Qingzhou is so strong, it must be that the Qingzhou army has a very harsh relationship with the Huns, Xianbei, and Wuhuan in successive battles, and the treatment of the loser after the victory? Things hurt like that!

With this layer of obstacles, there is little point in talking about conditions such as land cession and border closure. Thinking of the inevitability of the big battle between the two armies, how could Ma Dai be worry-free?

Seeing his sister's sensible nod, Ma Dai sighed, originally thinking of finding a good home for Xiao Wu, but now it seems that there is no hope at all.

"Let's go, since we are going to fight, it's better to prepare as soon as possible." Ma Dai is also a heroic man who can afford to let go, knowing that things are irreparable, and he doesn't worry too much, so he immediately prepared to leave Qingzhou and return to Hedong to resume his life.

"Wait a little longer, Sister Lu hasn't come back yet." Ma Yunluo did not obey obediently, she eagerly looked in the direction where Lu Qiling left, wondering what the other party wanted to wait for.

"Sister Lu......" Ma Dai knew his sister's familiar temper, but he didn't expect that it was just his own conversation with Wang Yu that he would be so familiar. Thinking that Wang Yu was not afraid of shocking the world and making women generals, but he defended Han Hu so tightly, and the sullen feeling in his heart was even more depressed for a while, and the male and female defense seemed to be much more defensive than Han Hu's, right?

He couldn't persuade Ma Yunluo, and remembered what was on his mind, but he didn't urge for a while, until Ma Yunluo snorted lightly, and then he came back to his senses.

Ma Dai observed, it was an ordinary single-wheeled carriage, if it was special, the carriage was more tightly closed, and there might be some heavy objects in the carriage, leaving deep ruts.

When he got closer, the person who drove the car bowed slightly and said to Ma Yunluo: "Miss Ma, my general has always been unable to stand the parting, so he didn't come to say goodbye, knowing that the girl was going to travel far away, and the road was uneven, so he sent a refined carriage in the army, and there were some gifts in the car, not a tribute, please smile." ”

"One side of the relationship, Ling Shang is too polite, this gift is still ......" Ma Yunluo's beautiful eyes were only spinning around in the car, but Ma Dai knew that he was familiar with the world, and knew that if he accepted this gift, he would inevitably accept it, and I am afraid it will be difficult to clean it up in the future. But only halfway through the words, Ma Yunluo pulled his sleeves and squeezed his eyebrows.

"This was given to me by Sister Lu, second brother, why are you refusing to do so? Besides, aren't you curious about how this carriage was made? ”

"This ......" Ma Dai didn't care much about the former reason, but the latter made him hesitate. There are a lot of skilled craftsmen here in Qingzhou, and there are countless new weapons made, maybe there is really some way to this carriage.

The coachman is also very good at observing words and feelings, and explained a sentence quite incomprehensibly: "During the Eastern Crusade, the army used such a vehicle, and everyone who used it said that it was good." ”

Ma Dai was stunned.

……

"Husband, I give people gifts, what are you mixing with? Could it be that you secretly saw the appearance of the Ma family's sister, and you were tempted again? The gift was successfully delivered, but Lu Qiling was not very happy, because someone inserted a kick in the middle of the gift-giving process.

"It's a blind thing, obviously I haven't even come out of the flower hall."

Of course, Wang Yu would not admit this account, and said with a mysterious smile: "Although Ma Dai is also a little paranoid, he is a very pragmatic person, and he can't show him the weapons at the bottom of the box, and send him a car, which also makes him understand the strength of our Qingzhou more accurately, which can be regarded as making some preparations for the future." Anyway, the things you send are so heavy, you have to have a good car to transport them, right? ”
