Three Kingdoms: I Am Not an Ant Thief Chapter 724: A World of Great Conflict
Compared with the hearsay outside, what Sun Ce got here is first-hand information. Because he is also an experiencer of this war!
After Liu Bei was completely defeated by Da Gan, Sun Ce also broke away from the Han army and became an ordinary citizen living in Jiangdong. Xu Wei did not care about such a defeated general.
Of course, Sun Ce did not live passively. Instead, he relied on the Sun family's power in Jiangdong to find a way to build a fleet and turned into a major maritime trade merchant.
In these years, Sun Ce has been transporting brown sugar in Yizhou Island, copper ore in Luzon Island, and spices in the South China Sea. This period was also a golden period for the development of maritime trade. Sun Ce can earn a lot of money every year, and his fleet is constantly expanding. among!
When Liu Bei planned to launch an army to attack Tianzhu, Sun Ce remembered how Liu Bei had taken care of him. He led his fleet to help Liu Bei's army transport logistics supplies, and later helped Liu Bei sell the loot from Tianzhu!
Of course, Sun Ce and the others received extremely generous rewards for their support of Liu Bei. As long as they followed Liu Bei this time, the businessmen who supported Liu Bei made more than 10 times the profit. Sun Ce was no exception. He made hundreds of millions of dollars this time alone. .
It was because Sun Ce joined the war against Tianzhu that he understood the inside story so clearly, because he was beside the battlefield at the time, and he even lamented that Tianzhu's country was defeated so quickly.
Zhou Yu sighed: "It seems that Duke Xuande is planning to learn from what he did when he was in power in Han Dynasty. This is to drive out all the upper classes in Tianzhu!"
Sun Ce said contemptuously: "These nobles of Tianzhu are even more corrupt than the powerful nobles of the Han Dynasty. They have no value at all and are completely unworthy of sympathy. Moreover, we have paid so much for this war, and Duke Xuande wants to reward us." These followers and his soldiers must also eliminate the upper echelons of Tianzhu!"
Zhou Yu worriedly said: "But not everyone can be a governor. At that time, Lei Gong was the enemy of the whole world. The powerful nobles of the Han Dynasty yelled and killed the governor, but the governor was too strong. Although I don't know the situation in Tianzhu now. , but according to your statement, although the upper class in Tianzhu are conservative and corrupt, their power in Tianzhu is more powerful than the powerful noble families of the Han Dynasty.
The ruler is one of his own, and he can gather the people of the entire Han Dynasty to rebel, but Xuande Gong and the others are just outsiders. I am afraid it will be difficult to mobilize the entire people of Tianzhu to follow him to deal with the nobles of Tianzhu. If Xuande Gong does not have good control The strength of the people of Tianzhu will probably overwhelm Duke Xuande’s army, and it will be drowned in the hands of tens of millions of Tianzhu people.”
In Zhou Yu's view, Xu Wei is not easy to learn. After thousands of years of history, the only person who can truly change the world by relying on the power of the bottom is the one in power. In Zhou Yu's view, this means that Xu Wei has won the world. It is the most difficult and difficult to learn, not to mention that Liu Bei is still learning how to govern in foreign lands like Tianzhu, so it is easy to make things superfluous!
Sun Ce nodded and said: "Gong Jin expected it to be true. Before I left Tianzhu, the countries of Tianzhu had already begun to form a coalition, and the nobles of Tianzhu also began to look for Guishang, the most powerful overlord in Tianzhu, to support them. However, Guishang The country occupied by Duke Xuande is still thousands of miles away, so it will be difficult for the Kushan army to reach the battlefield in a short period of time."
Of course, the strength of the Tianzhu coalition is not bad, which is why the Xuande Guild brought all the gold and silver treasures to Jidu, because the war in Tianzhu is about to break out!"
"Although people like Xuande Gong have been defeated repeatedly, they have been able to fight again and again. Now they are rebuilding the Han Dynasty in Tianzhu. If this is really successful, the achievements established by Xuande Gong will probably not be inferior to that of Emperor Shizu of the year. !" Zhou Yu admired Liu Bei even more. Even though the entire Han Dynasty had fallen, Liu Bei still didn't give up. He could not find many people with such willpower in history!
Then he said a little puzzled: "The ruler agreed to allow his subordinates to go to the South China Sea to explore. The current South China Sea is probably full of riots. During this period, almost every month, many people came to the South China Sea to make a fortune, so that the whole The South China Sea is almost boiling."
"Now news of Duke Xuande's victory has come from Tianzhu, which has made the people of Daqian even more agitated. I don't understand what the old man in power is thinking. The world has just stabilized, and he can't think of a way to recuperate at this time. To restore the vitality of the world, but instead take frequent actions and make the world become turbulent. How can anyone in the world govern the country like this?"
Xu Wei's way of governing the world was incomprehensible to traditional scholar-bureaucrats like Zhou Yu. It was okay to let his subordinates occupy the South China Sea. After all, Dagan did not have the strength to occupy the South China Sea. The ruling subordinates should develop the South China Sea first. These wastelands The island can be regarded as a reward for the heroes, but letting Liu Bei build a Han Dynasty in Tianzhu is incomprehensible!
But Sun Ce said excitedly: "On the contrary, I feel that such a world is full of vitality. It is not like the old men who were full of decay and lifelessness. When a man stands in the world, he should carry a three-foot sword and achieve unparalleled achievements. Now All the heroes in the world are thinking of ways to make great contributions, and Brother Wei plans to imitate them and occupy an island in the South China Sea to build a country of his own."
Zhou Yu was not surprised that Sun Ce had such ambitions, but he said worriedly: "Although the ruler agreed to let his subordinates divide feudal countries and establish a country in the South China Sea, it does not mean that Lei Gong is willing to let us go to the South China Sea to establish a country in the same way, especially Bo Fu. You were an enemy of the government at the beginning, so the imperial court will be more wary of people like you."

But Sun Ce smiled and said: "Although you have far-sightedness, Gongjin, your understanding of Lei Gong is not as good as that of Brother Wu. Lei Gong is more ambitious than you think. You thought Lei Gong would not be willing to let me establish a country in the South China Sea, but think about it now Lu Bu, who founded the country in Nanzhong, and the Yuan family, Wang family and Yang family, who established their power in Nanzhong, were the powerful noble families of the Han Dynasty.
They were also enemies of Daqian, but when they established a small country in Nanzhong, Lei Gong not only did not stop them, but also helped them with logistics. Otherwise, Lu Bu and the others would not have established their foundation in Nanzhong so smoothly. Nanzhong is such a big place. , Thunder God will give up if he says to give up, so now that we occupy some small islands in the South China Sea, Thunder God will not care at all, but will applaud our actions!"
Sun Ce's words also puzzled Zhou Yu. All dynasties in the past dynasties would first appease the remnants of the previous dynasty and then kill them all. But what they did in power was exactly the opposite. When he was still weak, they went around to kill all the clan members. , and when he was strong, he let these enemies go. It’s completely unfathomable!
