One thousand three hundred and thirty-seven, besides China, there is also China, and it will be endl
Guo Peng's explanation dispelled some of Guo Jun's doubts, making him sure that his father's thoughts were not on a whim, but had made meticulous thoughts.
Perhaps the navigation exploration action that began in the fourth year of Yande is to lay the foundation for all this today.
That is to say...
At that time, did my father decide to let us take this path?
Guo Jun's mood suddenly became a little complicated.
"But there are problems doing this. I can understand why Liu Bang didn't choose this way."
Guo Peng said, "First of all, Liu Bang is not like a father. He knows how big the world is, and knows that a corner of China's China is not the whole world. He naturally believes that there is no country worth caring about outside China, so he never thought about banning the past.
Secondly, outward sealing is a big project that requires full support from the state, including the army, food, weapons, population, and various materials.
These materials need to be transported over three months and last for a long time by sea ships, which may last as long as three years or even longer. This is a very huge expenditure that ordinary countries cannot afford."
"So, my father thinks Liu Bang can't do it?"
Guo Peng nodded.
"If it weren't for the sea ships and sea transport, and the experience accumulated over the years, I wouldn't feel that I could do it. Three months, spanning three months, can only hold on to a large base like sea transport. Otherwise, more consumption will be made than what is sent out, and the court's finances will collapse."
"There is such a loss?"
"Yes, the loss is so great, but with sea transportation, ports, and people familiar with sea routes, the difficulty of this task will be reduced, at least, it is definitely not impossible to do it."
"I see."
Guo Jun nodded slowly, but his expression was still a little confused.
"You have any questions, please ask."
Guo Peng is willing to answer Guo Jun’s doubts.
Guo Jun lowered his head and looked at the map, his thoughts were twisting and turning.
He had a lot of doubts.
"Father, was it because Zong Zhou divided the feudals to expand territory?"
"That was natural. During the late Shang Dynasty, the world was wilderness, and there were no people everywhere like now? King Zhou of Shang conquered Dongyi several times. At that time, Dongyi was today, Qingzhou and Xuzhou, which were in a foreign land.
At that time, the land of Shandong was like the grasslands occupied by the Huns and Xianbei. It was wilderness and was full of barbarian tribes, which were enemies of us. The ancestors grew stronger in the Dahe River Basin, and then they naturally followed the Dahe River eastward.
On the way east, he conquered and expanded his territory, and turned the land of Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Xuzhou into the territory of China. The Shang King went east to the east and went to Zongzhou, and also carried out the eastern expedition in order to conquer this area.
Every inch of the land we now own is taken by our ancestors from the hands of the barbarians. They fought a thousand-year war, a thousand-year battle, and bloodlines blended together, and finally became the current China, and the former barbarian land finally became the Chinese state."
Guo Peng pointed to the territory of China on the world map and taught Guo Jun these important knowledge very seriously.
Let him know what real one is like, one inch of mountains, rivers, and one inch of blood. The territory of the empire was not born, nor was it a gift for phone bills, but it was obtained by his ancestors' conquests along the way.
Guo Jun seemed to have opened the door to a new world, and kept praising and nodding, as if he had completely forgotten the pain just now.
He still has questions to ask.
"Father, if it must take three months, why is it feasible to divide the throne and Zhou dynasty, but is it impossible to divide the throne in the Han Dynasty?"
"Zongzhou has been around for more than a thousand years ago. A thousand years ago, what was the traffic conditions of the land under our feet? Can you predict? The roads, bridges, and water flow conditions at that time were exactly the same as those now?"
Guo Peng's rhetorical question left Guo Jun speechless.
"When Zongzhou divided the feudal situation, the traffic conditions were very poor. The place and the area might not be in contact with each other. A county was separated, and everyone might not be able to meet in this life. At that time, Zongzhou's feudal might have met the requirements of three months.
But as time went by, the people's labor and transportation improved hundreds of years later, and the distance of three months was broken. As a result, the contradictions between countries began to intensify and the annexation war began."
Guo Peng's explanation made Guo Jun feel unusually reasonable, and he felt that this might be the real situation.
The real thing that happened in the real situation was the reason for the success of the Zongzhou seal and the collapse of the Chengzhou seal.
"In this way, with the help of the Dachidao repaired by the pre-Qin period, the distance of three months is enough to reach anywhere in the Central Plains from Chang'an, and to allow anywhere in the Central Plains to arrive in Chang'an within three months. In this way, the feudal system is naturally not feasible."
Guo Peng finished speaking and looked at Guo Jun.
"This is why I will never seal your brothers in China. I vigorously rectify traffic. It takes 600 miles to speed up and travel around the country without a month. The traffic has changed completely differently from that time.
If you are enfeoffed in the country, you are purely self-destruction. Even if you have lost your real power and cannot threaten the emperor, it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor will not attack you, or that the descendants of the descendants will attack your descendants.
The flesh and blood are killed, and the blood is a situation that I don’t want to see, so you must leave Wei State, you cannot stay here, you must leave."
Guo Peng pointed to India.
"Here, there are big countries like the Kushan Kingdom, and there are many small countries with their own characteristics. You have to go to this land, take a ship, take troops and weapons, defeat them, occupy their territory, and build your own country."
Guo Jun looked at the place where the ban was prepared for him by Guo Peng and was silent for a long time.
"So my father had already thought about everything?"
"It's almost the same. A few years ago, I've already started thinking about the way out for you. I've felt that I can't let you stay in Wei. You can go out and treat your brothers, yourself, and better treat Wei."
Guo Peng sighed.
"It is not enough to just stay on the land of China. The population is increasing, land annexation becomes increasingly severe, and taxation becomes increasingly difficult, which will inevitably lead to the decline of the country's power. Reform is only one aspect, and there are many obstacles. If we cannot find another way, the life of the Wei Kingdom will be only three hundred years."
Guo Jun raised his head and stared at Guo Peng.
"Is my father doing this so that our brothers can open up new territory overseas like the princes of Zongzhou?"
"Of course, your brothers are the Emperor Zhou, you are the princes, go and explore, open up all these unparalleled lands and fertile lands, take them in your hands, and then trade with the Emperor, do business, communicate with each other, and open your horizons."
Guo Jun lowered his head again, looked at the world map, and thought about what Guo Peng said while looking at it.
He suddenly thought of a very important question.
"Father, what you said is that the distance of three months cannot be reduced. If one day the distance of three months is broken, and you can get here from Luoyang without three months, what should I do?"
Guo Jun looked up, pointed his finger at the land of India and looked at Guo Peng.
Guo Peng was silent for a while.
"That day, I can't see it, and you can't see it. It's the future, a long, long, long time, and future, maybe one or two hundred years, maybe three or four hundred years.
At that time, our father and son had long turned into dust and no longer existed. It would be meaningless to consider these at this time, just as King Wu of Zhou would not consider the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
A Jun, do you want me to consider their situation and difficulties for the descendants in two or three hundred years later, and there is still a solution? If it really reaches that point, the Wei Kingdom will not last long and it will perish in advance."
Guo Jun didn't say anything, thought for a while, and nodded silently.
"My father thought carefully."
"This is not Zhouquan, this is just a desperation. I don't want anything to happen between you brothers after I die. I don't want to see anything between you brothers after I die. I don't care enough about you when I am alive. I don't want you to suffer after I die.
Ajun, your father is an emperor, but he is also your father after all. I don’t want to see your brothers kill each other, nor do I want to see whoever dies in depression. You are outstanding talents I have carefully cultivated. You should display your talents.
I hope you can create something, have your own country in these places, and implement our Wei rules and regulations. Then decades later, there will be China outside of China, and it will continue to be passed down from generation to generation."
"Father……"
Guo Jun felt that his throat was a little dry and didn't know what to say to express his thoughts.
The father and son were speechless.
After a while, Guo Peng folded the map and handed it to Guo Jun.
"Take it, this is a gift for you. In your lifetime, if you can calm down the land of poison, dominate the continent of poison, and then go to the tomb of the father, burn this map to the father, so that the father can know that you have fulfilled your expectations for you for your father.
If you cannot do it in your lifetime, tell your son, your grandson, and your descendants to pass on it from generation to generation. When you finally dominate the land, send someone back and burn the map to your father and let it know."
Guo Jun looked at Guo Peng, hesitated for a while, and finally reached out to take the map.
"If my father's expectations are like this, I will do my best."
"Recreating China in a foreign land is not a merit that can be left in history."
Guo Peng patted Guo Jun on the shoulder.
Holding the map in his hand, Guo Jun only felt that part of the confusion and dissatisfaction he had buried in his heart for many years had disappeared.
A whole new world appeared in front of him. The dark world that originally belonged to him seemed to be filled with rich colors in an instant, and he saw infinite possibilities from it.
He could not stay in Wei, and he felt dissatisfied, painful and desperate about it.
But it is another thankful thing for him to go to the new world to show his strength instead of being placed under house arrest in Luoyang City for life, which is a gratifying thing.
