Guo Jia smiled and did not explain to Fazheng. He knew that Fazheng must have made speculations, but he suppressed them. Sometimes the long-term friendship between the two parties makes people involuntarily ignore the correctness, but it goes against emotional judgment. This
That is what is called sensibility.
However, Fazheng does have emotional qualities. He has never experienced more than 20 years of depression. Friendship is more important to him than power.
It is precisely because it comes easily and is obtained so easily that we are dismissive of it, and this is how power is for the current Fa Zheng. What is something that can be obtained easily by one’s own wisdom, is it important to have friends’ greetings?
Lu Su and Liu Ye were relatively silent. Liu Ye's actions were indeed unpleasant, while Lu Su was a good old man. All forces would have an internal fight before the final step, but the difference was in the degree of internal fighting.
Some forces will eventually fail due to internal fighting, while other forces will reach a balance and compromise through constant internal fighting. They are no longer bound by lofty things like ideals, but by mundane things like interests.
Together.
This is an inevitable step for all forces before and after they reach the top. After all, conquering the world and sitting on the world are two completely different situations. Many of the groups that were formed when conquering the world have hindered the progress of society when they conquered the world.
Having said that, this is another kind of Tao that changes with time. Also changing with time are those who conquer the world together. Human ideals themselves are constantly changing. Mortals can only see everything in front of them, but wise men can see the future.
It is impossible for a thousand people to be alike, which means that it is destined that not all people have the same ideals.
It can be said that most people's ideals have been realized before and after the power reaches the top. After the ideal comes the world and reality, which are shackles that mortals can never break away from. Naturally, those leaders with more lofty ideals have not yet achieved their goals.
At this time, whether the ideal is compromised by the secular world, or whether the ideal conquers the secular world, it is uncertain, but a fierce collision is inevitable, and the internal fighting begins.
Either for ideals, or to hold on to the existing bottles and jars, it is absolutely impossible not to do something. Someone on both sides must fall, but if you attack your former comrades, in the end, whether the idealist or the realist will win,
Even if your heart is as hard as iron, you will inevitably get tired.
Needless to say, if the final winner is a realist, it will inevitably evolve into a coalition of interests. If the final winner is an idealist, the ideal will inevitably be tainted with secular colors, and then fall from the lofty to the commonplace. The idealists will also inevitably have internal internal conflicts.
After fighting and reflecting, another group of tired idealists fell into the world.
At this time, it is estimated that the idealists will no longer fight with this group of idealists who after reflection thought that they were wrong and then fell into the mortal world. They have killed some of their comrades. The only remaining ones are a few nerve-wracking guys.
I have no interest in anything else.
Afterwards, the idealists collapsed, returned to mortals, and once again became normal interest group structures. This was an inevitable scene for almost all successful forces. As for why some did not appear, the reason was too simple. Their top leaders were still very young.
What people see as success is just the beginning to them.
This is also the reason why Chen Xi wants to tell the "facts", one is to avoid upcoming disputes, and the other is to ensure internal purity.
To be honest, if every civil servant, including Li You and Jia Xu, were not young and in good health, Chen Xi would not be able to stop the struggle of this group of people even if he opened the world map.
Just because they are young, the passion of these people has not disappeared, and there are still more ambitions that have not been revealed. They are all in their seventies and eighties. Even if they open the world map, they have nothing to do with them. They will fight no matter how hard they fight. There is no way to stop it.
live.
As for Jia Xu and Li You, who are now considered old men, these two guys are very confident about their lifespans, and fighting for another thirty years is no joke!
This is a matter of mentality. Li You and Jia Xu basically don’t have any old ideas. They all hold that I can fight for decades more. Their mentality is very young, so hanging out with people like Chen Xi doesn’t look old at all, and some
People become prematurely old at the age of thirty.
[In such a vast world, I have always felt that two or three people like us in an era are enough to carry out their own responsibilities. If there are more people in the world, there will be no room to accommodate it. It turns out that we are just limiting ourselves.] Liu Ye was silent in his heart.
I suddenly thought, how can two or three people be enough in such a big world?
[The world is so big, how can we occupy it? There are not enough people, and the transportation problem is too difficult to solve. Although Anxi and Kushan are far apart, they are still within the radiation range of a unified empire. No matter how far they are, transportation will be limited.
Now, we must find a way to solve the problems of troop strength and food and grass transportation.】
The problem Lu Su was thinking about was very practical. For the Han Dynasty, the scope of rule was not actually the scope of conquest, but was limited by the time the army arrived. Once the army failed to arrive within fifty days, there was nothing you could do if a rebellion occurred.
Solved.
Coupled with the difficulty of transporting food and grass, the pressure of transporting food and grass caused by the fifty-day march may be greater than the trouble you will cause by conquering that area. This is the most helpless part of the classical empire. It is not that it cannot be defeated, but that it is limited by
Due to the difficulty of transporting troops and the pressure on food and fodder, we had to abandon the conquered land and withdraw.
Building official roads is indeed the key to solving the problem. After having the concept of Tianxia, Lu Su has begun to consider building two national roads, two national roads for Anxi and Kushan. However, Anxi is okay, but Kushan is too troublesome.
Much more.
[Jia Wen and this guy’s Ma Zheng is now barely taking shape, but it will take another two to three years to really produce results. However, it is much better now that Jizhou is occupied. When Youzhou is annexed, Ma Zheng will
Even if the problem is solved.] Lu Su silently thought about the future path.
After all, Chen Xi only planned, that is to say, he only made the frame structure. Lu Su still needed to solve the other problems himself. With a large number of horses, the marching speed of the mounted infantry could far exceed that of the infantry.
In other words, if there are enough horses, the empire's radiation radius can be doubled, which is very valuable to Lu Su. After seeing the vastness of the world, Lu Su no longer only focuses on the Central Plains.
As a top wise man, Lu Su is no longer thinking about leaving his name in the history of the Central Plains, but about leaving a strong mark on the larger stage of the world, and enclosure is something that is deeply rooted in the bones of almost every Central Plains person.
Instinctively, regardless of whether they are scholars, farmers, industrialists or merchants, or whether they are high or low, the passion for the land will always flow in the blood of the Central Plains people.
