New vassal states!!

Hearing these words from Liu Xu's mouth, the entire hall was boiling.

You know, I don't know how many people in the main hall are waiting for this news.

So far, there are only 5 vassal states in the empire when they were first created, namely Cao Cao's Wei State, Sun Jian's Wu State, Yuan Shao's Zhao State, Liu Bang's Han State, and Liu Bei's Ren State.

Such a division of vassal states was created to meet the needs of all the characters, but now it is not enough.

In fact, the State of Wei, the State of Wu, the State of Zhao, and even the State of Ren are all fine, and the land is enough.

But with the appearance of the entire Han Dynasty's civil ministers and military generals, as well as the emperors, so many talents are crowded into the land of a Han State, then it is obvious that some talents are rich, and many famous ministers and generals can only stay in a small room and live a life of reading books every day, which is really too wasteful.

As for those emperors, they all thought about how to get out of the control of their ancestors, have their own country, become emperors again, and hold the supreme power, but they were all at peace anyway.

Now that they have finally heard the plan of the new vassal state from Liu Xu's mouth, these people are naturally extremely excited.

And Liu Xu continued, "Many Aiqing may already know, now that the world will of the White Elephant World has begun to recover, a large amount of frozen land is thawed every day, and the land that can be cultivated at present has reached the area of nearly a province. In the future, there will be more such land, and in one year, the unsealed land will reach three provinces, two years later it will increase to five provinces, and after three years, the new land will be more than our existing land. ”

"So I plan to create eight new vassal states in each of the four directions of the southeast, south, and northwest, and they will create more lands in this new land!" Liu Xu said.

"There are eight places for the vassal states!" Everyone's eyes lit up, and the number was more than they expected.

"But as you know, these lands are all new, and there is no population on them, let alone various materials and resources, so these resources must be expropriated from the existing five vassal states, and each old vassal state must be paired with two new vassal states to provide corresponding resources and population to the new vassal states for development!" Liu Xu continued.

And these words made the smiles on many people's faces disappear.

As I said before, except for the old Liu family, the national fortunes of the other three vassal states are so lost, and the Zhao State has never even founded a country in history, so they have no talent at all, and it is not enough to barely hold on to their current existing territory, let alone create a new vassal state.

Therefore, there must be no one in the quota of the vassal states this time, but they have to hand over the population and resources of their own countries to help the new vassal states open up, which makes them have some imbalance in their hearts no matter what, and it is naturally difficult to see a smile.

People are selfish, and they are all heroes originally, so it is natural for them to have such thoughts and attitudes.

Of course, they don't have the ability to disobey Liu Xu's order, as long as Liu Xu forcibly gives the order, they will still obediently hand over the corresponding population and resources. It's just that in this way, when Liu Xu can't control it, or is not in the empire, then there may be all kinds of fun between the old and new vassal states.

Liu Xu himself also knows this, so after seeing everyone's expressions, Liu Xu directly added, "However, the resources of the old vassal states naturally cannot be given in vain, and as the old saying goes, it is not difficult to borrow and borrow again, so I think it is better to borrow these people and resources!" ”

"First of all, I ask the old vassal states to lend at least 5 million people and 10 billion imperial coins worth of various materials to each new vassal state. This is the minimum floor, and if the old vassal states are willing to borrow more, I have no opinion. ”

"After borrowing, it is repaid, and the deadline is 30 years. After 30 years, the new vassal states must return half of the land developed during this period to the old vassal states and become the new territory of the old vassal states, and the new vassal states can also take the remaining population and land and continue to develop more land and resources to expand their own territory. ”

"Until I decide to create the third batch of vassal states, you can expand your territory without limit, as long as you can settle and build villages on these lands according to the standard of at least 100 people per square kilometer, then these lands are yours!" When Liu Xu's voice fell, all the old princes had completely changed their previous attitudes, and they were all staring at the new princes, eager to lend out all kinds of people and resources immediately.

After all, for these princes and kings, it is their irrepressible desire to expand their territory, but Liu Xu suppressed it very hard before, and did not give them any more opportunities to develop their territory, and they can only live in their three provinces at present.

And now a reasonable opportunity to increase the territory has come, as long as the population and resources are lent, after 30 years, they will be able to take half of the territory of the other side, which is probably the only opportunity in 30 years.

As for the question of whether there are more human resources to take over these territories, the old vassal states have nothing to worry about.

Because after 30 years, the indigenous officials of the empire have grown up completely, and some of them may not be much weaker than the reflection role, and these indigenous officials will be able to support the official system of the new land, rather than only relying on those reflection roles.

As for those who aspire to become new princes, they also appreciate Liu Xu's policy.

First of all, with this policy, they are not afraid that those old vassal states will be reluctant to lend resources.

Because the total harvest of the old vassal states lies in the total amount of new territory they have opened up after 30 years. The more initial resources and populations the old vassal states give, the faster they will develop the land, and the more territory the old princes will harvest after 30 years.

Therefore, these old princes will definitely do their best to give them all kinds of people and resources, so as to ensure that they can harvest more land in 30 years.

Will they, the new princes, be passive and slack off? After all, it seems that I have been working for others for the past 30 years!

That's also impossible, because half of the land developed is their own, and if they develop less in the past 30 years, they will naturally get less land after 30 years, which is more than worth the loss.

In addition, what he repaid was only the land, but he did not have to repay the people and resources he borrowed before, so in the past 30 years, it is natural to try his best to make these people and resources produce more people and resources.

Therefore, the new princes will definitely do their best to develop the new land, and the entire system of the old and new princes will be completely revitalized, and the top and bottom are full of vitality, which can be called a conspiracy that no one can refuse.

"How did the lord come up with such a ruthless routine!" Several princes looked at each other as if they were looking at each other, and then locked their eyes on Zhuge Liang behind Liu Xu. Well, it must be Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's trick.

In this regard, Liu Xu could only roll his eyes helplessly, because this was really his own idea!

"Then it's time for the most critical step, who are these eight new princes!" Liu Xu squinted his eyes and said happily.
