Su Dingfang didn't have any definition in his heart about the other two powerful countries that Li Xiang said, but he had heard Li Xiang say it, and it was far away from our Datang.

"Sometimes I wonder, do we have to occupy their land?"

Su Dingfang felt that the current territory was big enough, and the newly occupied land was not good, taking the Western Regions and Fusang as an example, the land in these places was not comparable to the Central Plains at all.

In this age of farming, what's the use of occupying this place if you can't farm it? Take these lands in Fuso as an example, even if you plant all the land seeds, it may not be able to produce much food, so what's the use of occupying it with such great effort?

Of course, Fuso and Goguryeo can complement each other.

There is enough land on the Goguryeo side, but there are not enough people, so we can just pull the people of Fusang and let them grow food for us, so that the land of Fuso can feed a small number of people.

But are other places so complementary to each other? Su Dingfang felt impossible.

"There is a question of strategic depth here, there are many things that we don't need now, such as some useful minerals underground, but with the development of society in the future, these minerals will become more and more important, and we want to win a big empire for future generations, and then they don't need to buy these minerals from others."

Li Xiang didn't know how to explain this matter, so he could only explain to them about the future of the current development.

Su Dingfang nodded a little blankly, this guy's thinking is quite advanced, but he can't catch up with Li Xiang's thought, after all, from the Great Qin era to the present, the scope of our activities is the surrounding area of the Central Plains, and other places are regarded as barbarians.

Now it is basically proved that the old people's thinking left behind is correct, their place is really far worse than our land, even if the land of Nanzhao is slightly better, but the grain production is much worse than ours, and it takes a lot of effort to beat them down, except for so many more slaves, it seems that there is no benefit.

When Li Xiang and Su Dingfang were discussing the future of the Tang Dynasty, Taro Ito and Yasukawa Fukuda were very depressed, and they didn't expect that the situation would turn out like this, and it would become so fast.

The two of them can still live in the city, but now they can only live in the wilderness, so the two of them are very depressed at the moment.

Just when Li Xiang's siege policy was settled, about a week later, the situation on the battlefield changed again.

Taro Ito's food was the first to be eaten, so he knew that he could only eat it on the mountain, so Taro Ito gathered the last 5,000 people who could fight and led them to rush in the direction of Fukuda Yasugawa.

Fukuda Yasukawa also knew that if he unites one more person now, he will have a greater chance of living, so Fukuda Yasukawa also abandoned his previous suspicions and led his men to start attacking the encirclement, hoping to meet with Taro Ito's people.

Suzuki and Kato Jiro carried out the siege mission, and Genzaburo Okawa carried out the task of capturing slaves, thinking that the two sides had lost the ability to attack, who knew that in this situation of mourning and victory, Suzuki's encirclement was first broken through, and although Kato Jiro's side was able to withstand it, it also let Ito Taro rush over.

Now the two encirclements are combined into one encirclement, although they are still surrounded in the end, but Suzuki Zhongtai's ability to lead troops is really not good, Li Xiang also made some adjustments at this time, Suzuki Zhongtai still returned to the capital of Fuso, specializing in civil affairs, as for military matters, all handed over to Kato Jiro.

When seeing this change, Genzaburo Okawa and Suzuki Chutai both regretted it a lot, if the two could unite, Suzuki Tadashi would hand over all the forces in his hands to Genzaburo Okawa, then the union of Genzaburo Okawa and Suzuki would be invincible.

But now Li Xiang's arrangement has directly dismantled the union of the two of them, and now the most powerful military is Jiro Kato, and Genzaburo Okawa and Taro Watanabe have retreated to the second and third.

The most depressed is Lord Suzuki, the number of troops under his command is the largest, but because of the mistake of this encirclement, Li Xiang did not hold him responsible, but only stripped him of his military power, which is already quite face-saving, does he dare to have other ideas?

So after this guy said goodbye to Li Xiang, he immediately boarded the ship with his entourage, or returned to the capital of Fusang as quickly as possible, and then seized the time to resume production, as long as the more grain was taken out, the greater his talent.

As for Gensaburo Okawa in the future, you can only rely on yourself, there was originally a good opportunity for cooperation, in front of the two, but neither of them cherished this opportunity, and now this opportunity can no longer come back.

Taro Watanabe, who is far away in Fukuoka, is also in a hurry, but the question is what can he do? Now Li Xiang ordered him to be stationed in Fukuoka and Nagasaki, and regarded this place as the base camp of the Tang army, so he could only honestly build military camps and roads, as for going to the front line to fight, it was the business of Saburo Okawa Genzaburo and Jiro Kato.

Now the whole of Fuso has basically formed a surrender force dominated by these four people, and as for some rebels in various places, with the negative belief of Fukuda Yasukawa and Taro Ito, they will enter a low state.

But Li Xiang also absolutely understands that these people in Fusang are different from people in other places, don't look at them not resisting now, but there must be a seed of hatred in their hearts, but Li Xiang is not in a hurry, as long as he finds out and deals with it, he will be able to kill their idea sooner or later.

When Yasukawa Fukuda and Taro Ito met again, the two could almost be said to be hugging and crying, although the two had a feud in history, and the two families didn't know how many people they had killed each other, but looking at the current tragic situation, the two really couldn't hate it.

Datang's army didn't spend a single soldier, almost all of them were fighting inside the cabin, except for the slight participation of the Datang Navy Division, the other armies were standing next to it, looking at it, this made the entire Fusang divided into two parts, and the two really didn't know where Fusang's future was.

"What else can we do now?"

Taro Ito doesn't have the pride of the past, and he doesn't have the pride of the Ito family, and now he looks like a lost dog.

The resourceful Yasukawa Fukuda didn't know what to say, and not far away was Jiro Kato's army......
