Chapter 43: Conquer Rome and Parthia
I heard that Liu Xie really wanted Denuo’s scientific team to help the Han Dynasty build satellites and construct satellite communication systems.
Gana had no choice but to follow Liu Xie's wishes.
This thing doesn't count as developing military weapons directly for the Han Dynasty.
Or rather, it has come to this point.
The top executives of Denor, led by Dukao, just want to protect the super gene and the technology in this area.
As for the remaining things, even if the top leaders of Denor do not give them, Han will be able to develop them sooner or later on its own.
So, since we have compromised, there is no need to continue to make things more complicated over trivial details.
After explaining Gana's satellite construction, Liu Xie did not stay with her any longer and turned around to go to Yuqin again.
After all, people's physiques are different.
When he completed a transformation, the effect he could achieve was far inferior to that of other generals.
Now that the second renovation has been completed, he is worried that the same situation will occur again.
However, when Yuqin finished testing him, the results showed that he was only far inferior to the other generals in terms of strength.
In terms of lifespan, it is similar to that of other generals, and the upper limit can reach two hundred years.
In this way, Liu Xie felt much more at ease.
Next, it’s time to get down to business.
The ministers in Luoyang who were qualified to hold court meetings soon received the news that the emperor had returned and summoned his ministers to the palace to discuss matters.
Even high-ranking officials of Denor who were appointed as Han officials, such as Dukao, were summoned to the Chongde Hall.
After a series of procedures, Liu Xie sat on the throne and glanced at his ministers with a sharp gaze.
There are many new faces in the court, and many old faces are missing.
The new faces are all officials who have been selected through assessments in the past decade.
As for the missing faces, it goes without saying!
But we can only blame them for not being good enough!
The number of places for transformation is limited. There are so many people lining up who want to leave their names in history that it’s impossible to catch up!
What about them?
Resources are limited, and just one corner of China is not enough to allow all the Han people to reach for the stars and the sea.
Therefore, global unification is imperative!
"Your Majesty, please excuse me."
After his thoughts raced through his mind, Liu Xie immediately stood up and supported the ministers who were bowing to him with his hands.
Dukao, dressed in Han-style official uniform, looked at Liu Xie on the throne, and his heart was filled with complicated feelings!
He learned from Gana and Yuqin that Liu Xie could live to be 200 years old.
He thought he could outlive Liu Xie, but he never expected that Liu Xie actually mastered the technology to increase his lifespan.
Seeing that Liu Xie, who is already nearly fifty years old, can live for another hundred years...
In fact, even if he has to wait for another hundred years, he can still afford to wait and has the patience to wait.
However, if Liu Xie can increase his lifespan once, why can’t he increase it twice or three times?
It is even possible to reach his own level.
At this moment, he knew that it was impossible for him to outlast Liu Xie!
Just as he was thinking about it, the court meeting moved on to today's topic.
The ministers also advised: "Your Majesty, after more than ten years of great governance, the Han Dynasty and China have reached an unprecedented prosperity."
"In such a prosperous era, we should civilize the surrounding barbarians and make them part of China..."
This is today's topic.
The main purpose is to give the Han Dynasty a legitimate reason to launch a war, so that the emperor above can legitimately send troops.
However, there are still some people who are conservative and say things like "those who love war will eventually perish" and "those who are unscrupulous in their military spending."
Liu Xie was too lazy to pay attention to these people.
With his current power, once he makes a decision, no minister can stop him.
Besides, there was nothing wrong with his move to unify the world.
Looking at the entire known universe, is there any civilization like the later Earth civilization, with so many political regimes?
How can a civilization that can't even speak in a unified voice and has known infighting for thousands of years move towards the stars and the sea? It was just a procedure, but Liu Xie made a dictatorial decision and finalized the matter directly at the court meeting.
The reason why he convened this court meeting was not to discuss with his ministers, but to make notifications.
After that, it is necessary to arrange matters such as the personnel for the expedition.
These still need long-term consideration. After all, the world is huge, and even if the Han Dynasty has many talented people, they are not enough to be spread out all at once.
Therefore, to unify the world, we have to do it step by step.
First take over the area closest to the Han Dynasty, and then develop it for a few years.
Then use these conquered areas as springboards to gradually conquer the world.
Liu Xie also had some preliminary ideas.
As for the sea, it was left to Sun Jian and his son Sun Ce, as well as those talented people in Jiangdong who were good at water warfare.
At the same time, Liu Xie also classified them as navy.
The original Han navy had also begun to slowly transform and train at sea a long time ago.
After steam battleships and ships were built, they were the first to learn how to operate them.
However, it doesn’t matter if there is no time to familiarize yourself with it.
In this day and age on Earth, who can withstand the cannons of a battleship?
Even if they fight with their eyes closed, they can still scare the other person to death.
As for the army, it was still led by General Lu Bu, with each general leading an army.
The train will take them to the border of Dahan.
Then they fought all the way, building railways all the way westward until they joined forces with the navy and completely opened up the world.
As for military advisors and the like, Liu Xie had no intention of equipping them with them.
After all, those so-called strategists are now holding important positions in various parts of the Han Dynasty, and it is unrealistic to withdraw them all.
On the one hand, since we have satellite communications, the command center in Luoyang can give direct commands, so there is really no need for that.
With absolute military strength, it doesn't matter even if there is no command.
……
After leaving the court.
The officials also returned to their posts, each doing their own job, and began to prepare for war in full swing.
But Liu Xie still did not rest, but found Gana again and asked Gana to provide him with a map of the current world situation.
It is now AD 227.
At this point in time, there are only three countries in the world that can be compared with the Han Dynasty, or in other words, can be compared with the previous Han Dynasty.
They are: the Roman Empire, the Kushan Empire, and the Parthian Empire.
These three empires, together with the Han Dynasty, are known as the four great powers of Eurasia.
If the Han Dynasty was still the same as before, no matter which of these three empires it encountered, it would undoubtedly be a tough match.
But the Han people today are no longer the same as they were before, and facing them again can even be described as a dimensionality reduction attack.
Therefore, the only thing Liu Xie should consider now is how to assimilate them quickly.
And, how to minimize the resistance in these areas.
He is not a butcher, so naturally he doesn't want to commit massacres or other inhumane things.
The reason why he wants to unify the world is ultimately to integrate resources to develop the large collective of "Earth civilization".
And population is naturally a resource.
Regardless of whether it is a country or a civilization, population is of paramount importance in the early stages of development.
Therefore, there must be a good way to avoid it...
