Chapter 695: The world is stable
Xingding for six years......
Li Zhong asked Pei Du a question, "If I want to swallow the world, Aiqing thinks, how many chances can Datang have?" ”
Pei Du was also a little caught off guard by his sudden question.
"Why did Your Majesty suddenly ask that?"
Li Chong replied: "I just don't want to leave trouble for future generations." ”
Pei Du also replied: "But this is not easy. ”
LI Chong; "You say...... If the whole earth is Datang's, is it good? ”
Pei Du also replied: "That's good, but it's just ...... This involves the matter of war, and the minister still hopes that His Majesty will consider it carefully. ”
Li Chong: "I didn't say fighting, I just wanted to study the feasibility of doing this." ”
For example...... If you really want to fight, how many troops will be needed, and how many days will it take. ”
Pei Du: "It's not easy to say this minister. ”
Li Chong: "Then you still say that you know the soldiers, it seems that you are still a little worse." ”
Li Zhong finished speaking calmly.
Pei Du also had a cold sweat on his face.
The current Liao State has moved its capital to Pyongyang, the former capital of Goguryeo.
If Li Chong was taken by surprise, he sent two thousand men dressed as a merchant group, and then launched a surprise attack on the Liao State.
Li Zhong felt ......
Truth be told, it's not impossible to win.
Then, after entering the palace, he killed all the royal families of Liao.
In this way......
The Liao State has no royal family to inherit the throne, and as long as he persuades the officials of the Liao State to surrender, he may be able to take the Liao State.
Of course!
All of this is an ideal scenario of imagination.
When it's time to do it, maybe it won't be like that.
If you do something unifying at the wrong time, you will become Qin Shi Huang.
Do you want to become Qin Shi Huang and become the first emperor to unify the world?
In fact, if you think about it seriously, this is still very attractive to him.
The question is......
Let's not talk about whether we can win the war, and whether we can rule stably at that time is probably also a question.
After all......
Do you think that you alone can break through the law of historical cycles?
Even if you unify the world, it may take 300 years, 300 years will not work, it will be 800 years, and after 800 years, all this will be just another cycle.
No one wants to easily jump out of the cyclical law of history.
Unless......
Everyone has cultivated immortals, and they don't have to worry about eating, drinking, and Lazar.
Xiuxian entered communism.
Otherwise......
If the productive forces and the relations of production do not change, all this is in vain.
……
Come to think of this......
Li Chong simply gave up directly.
Li Chong: "You go back to duty." ”
Pei Du: "Yes. ”
Li Chong: "I ...... I still choose to believe in the wisdom of future generations, and I am too lazy to toss around. As the song "Sailor" sings, 'He said that in the battlefield, the best thing to use is fire, the cost is low and easy to operate, and it can defeat more with less, he said to set fire, a little wind is the best, but if it rains, it will be over.'" He said that there is nothing to do, whoever sets the fire does what, it is better to stay at home, the wife and children are hot and ......'"
……
After thinking about not going to war for the time being.
Li Zhong then ......
also set his sights on the matter of Yu Lie of Fen VI.
If you don't fight, it doesn't matter.
But......
You can't be a salted fish either.
Domestically, where reform should be carried out, it is still necessary to reform, and it is ...... I also want to tell my sons and grandsons more stories about the martyrs of the sixth generation of the Qin State, so that they can also learn the spirit of the monarchs of the Qin State.
……
Xingding for six years......
Over the course of this year, Datang has gained a lot of wealth from overseas by virtue of Pangu, Football City and Luoyang Library.
As a result, the people have become more abundant and well-fed, and they have become more comfortable and contented.
Although it is ......
Datang is not really smooth sailing, and there are droughts and floods in some states and counties.
But......
With the sincere cooperation of Li Zhong and the ministers, the impact of these disasters has also been reduced to a very low level.
Finished!
In the process of disaster relief, they also settled accounts afterwards and arrested a lot of local corrupt officials.
It can't even help but give people the feeling of fishing law enforcement.
Of course!
As long as you don't commit it, then there is no such thing as fishing enforcement.
All I can say is......
It's just that they're just a bit more secretive about their regulatory approach.
Over the years, Li Chong has come into contact with the ministers.
At this time......
The ministers in the court have generally been able to understand Li Chong's temperament.
Plainly!
Corruption is definitely not okay, as for others, such as you secretly doing business or something, or even lending usury to others, Li Chong will not care too much about you.
Qingliu can be said to be like a fish in water in Li Chong's dynasty.
Somewhat of the ability to compete with other officials.
Especially in this court, the voice is very loud.
Of course!
Li Chong won't say anything, what Qingliu says is what it is.
In all things, there must be evidence.
As long as the evidence is conclusive, the case will be prosecuted.
Not for people, only for things.
In fact......
The most difficult part of being an emperor is the reward for meritorious officials.
Before......
Li Chong is not an emperor, so he doesn't understand how difficult Li Er really is.
Now it's your turn to be emperor, and you'll find out.
If an official, he has made a meritorious contribution by impeaching other officials.
Do you want to promote this official?
Or is it ......
What kind of reward to give?
In fact, the reward of material and power positions is still said.
More critically......
In fact, it is the follow-up effect.
The lack of rewards is not conducive to maintaining a clear stream of impeachment of corrupt officials.
How much is the reward?
Resources are limited.
So......
Why is it that in ancient times, there were many things where there was no reward, so simply not rewarded, and directly killed.
This is why some emperors did not plan the details of the reward in detail, so that, in the end, they could only kill them.
The more Li Chong understands these things, the more he understands.
It doesn't matter if it's a person, or something, or something, in short......
Everything is just reincarnation.
Just like a small grass, when it grows and flourishes, there will inevitably be times when it declines and withers.
If you want to maintain a lush growth all the time, it is nothing more than human wishful thinking.
In this world, there will never always be such good things.
And every time you think about this fact......
Li Chong will also understand more and more that all that he has done is actually in vain.
Is that true, just do nothing?
Simply......
Just leave it to its own devices?
Apparently!
Neither is it!
Because even every time it's a cycle over and over again.
But at least......
The next cycle is definitely better than the previous one.
It's like......
In the past, the people did not have enough food and clothing.
And at least ......
In the current cycle, as long as the people are not too lazy, as long as they still want to work hard, they can still be fed and clothed.
The price of rice in Luoyang, the highest price of rice per bucket is only ten or twenty wen.
And for those large states that produce grain, the price of rice is directly as low as only two or three cents per bucket.
Moreover......
This situation has been maintained for nearly 200 years.
Who's to say......
Li Chong, and the efforts he and Li Er had made, were of no use at all?
Ultimately......
Li Zhong came to a conclusion.
Although the cycle is still there.
But as long as we continue to work hard and keep approaching, mankind will eventually get rid of hunger and poverty little by little, and reach a beautiful world where everyone can be fed and clothed, and everyone wants to do what they want to do.
And the key to such a world......
There seem to be two.
One is called the reform of the social system.
one, called Science.
But what do you really have to say......
There may be only one – and that's science!
Only science keeps evolving.
So......
Even if this cycle is still there, even when this cycle is at its worst, it is estimated that with the blessing of science, everyone will be able to live better than the previous cycle in the next cycle.
Therefore, the only thing that is really useful to human beings is science.
……
You can't fight with Liao and Jiaozhi.
Next......
Li Chong, the emperor, should not be interesting.
In addition to clocking in and out of work every day, Li Chong's favorite thing to do next is to think and create.
Because......
He really likes this kind of stuff.
Of course!
It's not that it's really written except for the last dynasty.
After all......
He will also play with Xiaoxiao and Li Zixin.
This year......
With the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the peace of the people, Li Chong gradually fell into a state of standby lying flat.
