The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Not everyone is as reluctant to leave the Xia Kingdom as Luo Huan and Chu Honghang, although the generals have a good life with Wang Ze, but the temptation of becoming the lord of a country also makes many people excited, this is a real marquis of the land, not a title in name.

After more than three months of debate, Wang Ze promulgated at the end of December the second batch of lists of 25 vassal states to be newly divided, with a total of seven first-class princes, 12 second-class princes, and six first-class princes.

Jiang Chuan, Xu Ning, Zhang Hang, Xun Yun, Ge Wei and He Liang are all first-class marquis, and their level is the same as the top ten marquis states that were divided for the first time, but because of the development time of ten years late, they will inevitably suffer some losses in the competition of vassal states in the future.

Unlike the other five people's feudal states in Kunlun Continent, not only He Liang is the only prince who is not a military general, but even the marquis he is the only prince who is not in Kunlun Continent, it can be said that He Liang is the most special one among these princes.

may be because of Wang Ze's debt to He Liang, as the first person in the Xia Kingdom to open up the outside world, He Liang has made great contributions to the Xia Kingdom's strategy through the West and the foundation of the West over the years.

He Liang was also qualified when he was divided last time, but because Wang Ze couldn't leave He Liang for a while, and He Liang was not very old at the time, Wang Ze delayed it for a while, and until now He Liang is in his fifties before he has a chance.

Before the separation, Wang Ze personally called He Liang to the palace and took out the world map for He Liang to choose by himself, as long as it was not the current territory of the Xia Kingdom, it could be rowed away, which could be said to be a place of ointment.

However, He Liang's choice was somewhat unexpected by Wang Ze, but it was reasonable, He Liang only asked Wang Ze to divide the land on the west bank of the Xindu River in the west of Tianzhu to himself.

In the future, as long as it is any piece of land on the west bank of the Xindu River, as long as it is attacked by him, then it will be He Liang's own land, but not on the east bank of the Xindu River, the land here Wang Ze has already made his own arrangements, and it will be of great use in the future.

At this time, there were many small countries established by the Yueshi people or the Huns in the lower reaches of the Xindu River, but these people had already integrated into the culture of the Tianzhu people and regarded themselves as an authentic Kshatriya, so Wang Ze did not need to pay attention to any Chinese branch issues with these people.

Because He Liang has been serving as the chief treasurer of the Nanyang Commercial Bank, although he has also commanded armed merchant ships to fight water battles with pirates from many countries at sea over the years, he is still not good at military affairs compared to other generals, and the natives in the lower reaches of the Xindu River are relatively weak compared to the fierce Kunlun Nu in Kunlun Continent.

In addition, in order to ensure He Liang's safety, Wang Ze also agreed to send a team of experienced soldiers to help He Liang develop his territory, so that with He Liang's past team, he could more or less establish a preliminary Houguo shogunate.

In addition to He Liang, the other five first-class marquis states, thirteen other second-class marquis states, and six first-class marquis states were also divided into coastal locations around Kunlun Continent.

The second-class marquis has thirteen people, including Zhou Duo, Yu Feng, Han Wen, Han Biao, Zhou Guang, Zhou Qiang, Liu Wancheng, Yang Pengfei, Shen Sanshui, Zhao Yong, Gu Bin, Meng Xian, and Zong Li.

The first-class Boguo has six people, including Li Shun, Zhao Kun, Shang Shengmao, Zhao Qin, Ling Cheng, and Pu Hong.

Because these princes are all military generals, they only need to bring their own personal soldiers plus some of the recruited young men to maintain themselves in the local area, Wang Ze did not send additional troops to assist, but only gave them the basic materials to establish a feudal state.

When considering the land of the feudal princes, Wang Ze also considered a lot, because the all-out westward expansion of the Xia Kingdom was likely to lead to a chain reaction in the Roman Empire and other countries in Taixi Continent, in order to occupy the territory first, Wang Ze simply divided the entire Kunlun Continent.

When the first batch of princes were divided, Wang Ze almost sealed most of the land on the east bank of Kunlun Continent based on his debt to his two younger brothers and compensation to Cheng Chong and Zhu Rui.

The southernmost part of Kunlun Continent, the strategic place of South Africa and Falklands in later generations was the direct territory of Xia State, so only six of the twenty-four princes who were divided into Kunlun Continent this time were divided into the east coast, and the other eighteen princely states were all established on the west coast.

The first batch of states established on the west coast of Kunlun Zhou were only the vassal states established by Hu Bingchang, Sun Xing, and Qu Liulang.

Compared with the east coast of Kunlun Continent, which is much closer to the Xia country, the west coast is even farther away from the Xia country, not to mention the Xia country itself, and even the Nanyang territory of the Xia country seems so far away, even if the three of them have joined forces to transport the population over the years, there are only 1230,000 people now.

In addition, the environment here is relatively not as good as the east bank of Kunlunzhou, and the dense rainforest climate is even more dangerous, all of which makes the princes who have newly joined the ranks of the west very surprised.

Still Gu Bin couldn't stand it, he took the initiative to ask Wang Ze: "Your Majesty, since everyone thinks that the desert in the north of Kunlun Continent is barren, then please ask Your Majesty to divide this land north of the desert to me, I just hope that Your Majesty will give me the right to conquer the north!" ”

Seeing that Gu Bin actually took the initiative to give up a piece of fertile land that was originally divided into him, the red-faced generals who were originally competing for it also found that they were in love, so they also returned to their original appearance one by one, and finally stopped snatching it.

Wang Ze looked at the secret joy in his heart, it is estimated that Gu Bin also got the details of the Roman Empire from Mi Ke and He Liang before, and may want to take advantage of the decline of the Roman Empire to snatch a piece of land from its land, after all, the Roman Empire will face a big crisis in the next decade or two.

At this time, if Gu Bin develops well, he can also have 20,000 or 30,000 troops, and it is possible to take down the Andalusian region of the Roman Empire, but what does it matter? Anyway, it is good for the Han people, and no matter how good the Roman Empire is, it is just a foreign race.

Thinking of this, Wang Ze laughed and said: "Everyone still has to learn from General Gu, since this is the case, I will give you the right to conquer the countries north of Taixi Continent, but in the future, the country must not change customs, and we must adhere to the etiquette and civilization of my Han family!" ”

Wang Ze also gave everyone a preventive shot in advance, because in ancient China, there was a mentality that if you enter China, you will be in China, and if you enter Yidi, you will be Yidi, and many Han generals abandoned the original Han culture after conquering foreign races, and went to the local indigenous culture.

This is the case with the Chu Guozhuang Bridge, the Qin Dynasty is like this with Zhao Tuo, and many other Wei Manchu who established Wei Manchu Korea and many others have chosen this approach.

It is undeniable that this can make the local aborigines recognize you as soon as possible, but this will not do any good to the entire Han civilization, and it is not conducive to the spread of the Han civilization to the outside world.

In addition, this is also seriously inconsistent with Wang Ze's fundamental intention to divide the princes, he wants to turn the whole world into the world of the Han people, if you people abandon the Han civilization in order to rule the natives well, it is better not to divide the princes.

At this time, other generals also saw Wang Ze's appreciation from the conversation between Wang Ze and Gu Bin, and even some slightly more astute generals also discovered Gu Bin's plan.

Although they also envy Gu Bin for some vague support from Wang Ze, but the Great Qin State (Roman Empire) is a Taixi power after all, and it is not something that a newly sealed prince like Gu Bin can deal with at all, so although everyone thinks that Gu Bin may have a chance in the future, it is more likely to provoke the Great Qin to crusade against the army.

When the decree of the Xia court spread to the world, its impact was far more than that, and these newly baked princes did not know what kind of changes their majesty would bring to the whole world.

Because of the gradual increase in the influence of the Xia State this time, the news of the birth of dozens of princes also quickly spread to the Turks and the Sui Empire.

At first, the Turks were overjoyed and thought that by removing so many veterans, the combat capability of the Xia army would inevitably decline sharply, so that their opportunity would come.

Dulan Khan did not expect that the Xia State would only divide some of the generals, and these generals were mainly the generals of the infantry army and the naval army, and the cavalry generals who fought with the Turks were basically there, so the Turks not only did not achieve any results in the next period of time, but even lost their troops.

After the news reached the Sui Empire, Emperor Wen of Sui was speechless for a long time, and since ancient times, there are no more than two means for high-ranking generals and generals with high merits, one is to kill meritorious heroes, and the other is to collect their military power, and then glorify their titles.

However, the Xia State opened up another means, allowing these generals to go to a more distant wilderness to create a foundation, so that they could not only avoid domestic cannibalism, but also have a large number of helpers, and in the future, when there are too many domestic people, they can also export to the outside world.

However, Yang Jian asked himself that it was impossible for him to do this, after all, these foreign princes were extremely far away from the mainland, and it was not impossible to rebel against future generations in case of a day, and Yang Jian admired Wang Ze's approach very much when he thought of this.

What Yang Jian felt most could learn from was that this approach could largely avoid the emperor's descendants from killing each other, anyway, this world is so big, it is completely possible to carve out pieces of territory, and then divide all these descendants into their own territory.

In this way, everyone has the throne to do, and there will be less internal fighting, and now Wang Ze's harem can maintain the current harmony, which is also related to Wang Ze's clear explanation of his thoughts to the three daughters, and there is no competition for interests, and of course there will be harmony between them.

After dividing the princes, it has already arrived in the New Year, Wang Ze can hear the crackling firecrackers outside when he stands in the palace, and the people inside and outside Zhenhai City are already celebrating the arrival of the New Year in advance.
