Chapter 1788

As king Jiang Hui of Qi pointed out the names of Wei, Zhou and any countries, a group of confused princes brightened up one after another.

The vast ocean between Datang and Dashang is called the South China Sea by Datang and the East China Sea by Dashang. No matter what the name is, in fact, the area of this ocean is only one circle smaller than the Pacific Ocean in the age of no spirit.

The most powerful and geographically best island, of course, is Penglai Island, a super Island, which is a little larger than the British Isles on earth.

However, its location is also in the middle, about the same distance from the big business and Datang. Penglai Island is definitely not the first place for people in exile from Datang or Datang in history.

The largest area of the archipelago nearest to Datang is only about the same as the curved island on the earth. Together with dozens of smaller islands around it, it forms a country called Wei. The state of Wei is close to Datang. That is the most ruthless island country bullied by the gentry and nobles of Datang.

In the past few hundred years, commerce and trade were not so developed, and navigation technology was not so outstanding. Many gentry and nobles sitting on the land were difficult to touch their interests on overseas islands. However, with the development of Commerce and trade and the rise and fall of science and technology in the recent two or three hundred years, the world also has the style of the era of great navigation.

The Weiguo islands were the private plots of Jingzhou gentry and merchants in the south of the Tang Dynasty. Many grains, gold, silver and gem veins, fishing and hunting resources produced on the islands were occupied by Jingzhou powerful gentry and big capitalists in 8899.

The situation of Datang's Jingzhou to the South China Sea and Yangzhou's congressman Wang is aimed at Datang's East China Sea, while Datang's vast eastern sea is connected to the mainland where Rome is located. There is not only an island country established by Chinese and Miao people, but also a kingdom formed by some Roman white people wandering out.

The current situation of Wei state is similar to that of Ying state before the establishment of Daqi. All citizens, including the aristocrats and gentry in the Kingdom, are private plots and back gardens exploited by the Tang Dynasty.

However, it is very difficult for the defending country to want to be independent and want to make a new world like Jiang Renmei, a former ancestor of Qi.

I don't mention anything else, just a little. With the current traffic conditions, the powerful gentry of Jingzhou in the Tang Dynasty sent a private fleet to defend the country. It will only take more than ten days at the fastest, but will they come to Qi? For at least two or three months, the sea route is smooth. With the help of monsoon, it can be so fast.

If we catch up with the sailing against the wind and current, it would be nice to arrive in half a year.

This is still the current navigation technology. It will take a lot longer to replace the era when Yingguo collapsed and Qi was established decades ago.

This geographical advantage led to the gentry and nobles of the Tang Dynasty. Although they had a large number of private fleets, merchant ships and so on, they could even borrow the Tang navy to do things, but the road was too far... They were still led by Jiang Renmei. Taking advantage of this time difference, they were able to get rid of the great pressure and rise step by step under the weakness.

Weiguo can't do it. It's too close to Datang Jingzhou. Not only the Navy or fleet can travel quickly, but also it's easy to set up a transport fleet to transport a large number of troops on the largest island of Weiguo.

However, because Wei is very close to the Tang Dynasty, the total territory of this country is very small, less than one tenth of that of Qi, but it is more densely populated, with a population of more than 9 million.

Generation after generation of civilian fishermen who could not survive in Datang set sail to sea in search of new hope. 99% of them arrived in Weiguo first.

Although the Wei state is seriously exploited at present, in fact, when the sea trade is underdeveloped, they also live a good life as children. In terms of human reproduction ability, it is easy for more than a dozen generations to have a violent population.

If the kingdom of Qi wants to go north and replace it with Li Tang, the kingdom of Wei must take it. The only way to occupy the kingdom of Wei is to storm soldiers in Jingzhou. Before Jiang Hui said this, the whole kingdom of Qi thought about annexing the kingdom of Wei more than once.

They just have to worry about the influence, mainly the influence of the three empires. They are not in a hurry. Do they really want to implement it? With the strength of Qi's 150000 Navy and 50000 elite army at present, we can finish defending the country in a few months.

Heaven and earth can learn from each other. The most difficult thing for them to defend the country is not the country itself. The country has less than 10000 navies and only a few thousand army. Dare you imagine that this is a country with a population of more than 9 million?

However, the kingdom of Wei is the private plot of powerful gentry in Jingzhou for a week. No matter how they want to develop, they will be restricted and suppressed, and they can't develop at all. Many senior officials and gentry in the kingdom of Wei are kneeling Tang School, and the royal family is just a puppet.

The most difficult thing for the state of Qi to swallow Wei was the response of Jingzhou in the Tang Dynasty.

The state of Wei is in the north, the state of Zhou is in the west of the state of Qi, and the state of Zhou is also composed of a string of islands. The total area of the largest island is three times that of the curved island on the earth, and the volume of 100000 square kilometers is one twentieth of that of Penglai Island in the state of Qi.

The state of Zhou is an archipelago country closest to the great Shang Dynasty. The whole country is similar to the state of Wei, with a population of more than 8 million and a total of more than 20000 troops. It is the private garden of all gentry and nobles in the two coastal provinces of the great Shang Dynasty.

Everyone in the king's office of Qi knows that they, the state of Wei and the state of Zhou, as well as the great Shang and Tang Dynasties, are actually one ancestor, one nation, Chinese and Miao descent. They really initiated the national war to swallow the kingdom. Then the biggest defect of Qi, the shortage of population, can be solved at once.

Qi, Wei and Zhou have a total population of more than 20 million. They are all of the same race, and there is no distortion of being ruled by foreigners.

They are 100% sure that after annexing hundreds of islands of Wei and Zhou, they will treat the original people of Wei and Zhou and give them the same treatment as the people of Qi... Then the people of both countries will madly support the king's office of Qi.

Who is willing to buy the land they have worked hard to grow and the food harvest is good, at the price of spitting blood? Who would like to see a golden mountain not far away, which was originally yours... But was occupied by foreign merchants and Tang Haozu, and drive you to dig? All the digging was carried away by those guys?

In the past, Yingguo people could not stand such treatment. Only when Jiang Renmei rose and shouted to let Yingguo people stand up, did she respond to countless questions.

Even in the early stage of resistance, Jiang Renmei lost the battle, but as long as Jiang is still alive and the flag does not fall, she follows countless people as soon as she comes out of the mountain.

The king's office of Qi determined that as long as we play according to the old ancestor's routine and copy it, we can easily beat the state of Wei and the state of Zhou and tens of millions of people.

They are afraid of the follow-up reaction of Shang and Tang.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Xiucai, the prince of Qi, said, "father, it's not difficult to beat Wei and Zhou. What's difficult is the Jingzhou senior management of Datang and the response of the two provinces of Datang."

"Among them, Wei is the most relaxed. Although Jingzhou's giants will not give up easily, we can lobby the capital nobles in other states of Datang to hold back Jingzhou. Those new capital nobles will never be soft when they sell their country."

"It's hard to say about Zhou. The prestige of the Shang emperor is growing, especially the news of his cultivation of immortals. Once the two provinces persuade the Shang Emperor... Big businessmen try their best to support the Zhou state, our Qi navy may not be able to get benefits."
