The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 358 Chen Ziming's Ambition
Chapter 370 Chen Ziming's Ambition
Chen Ziming began to focus on these five bald heads. It is absolutely impossible to build temples for these bald heads and let them preach in the big man.

In order to have a more detailed understanding of the current world structure and the current strength of the Guishuang Empire, the Anxi Empire and the Roman Empire, Chen Ziming kindly invited a few monks to visit Linzi.

The prosperity of Linzi amazed the bald heads, especially after visiting Linzi Academy, the bald heads even asked to study here.

Chen Ziming said with a smile that we will discuss it later, and at the same time ordered the secret guards to monitor these monks, not allowing them to approach Linzi Academy and Linzi Medical College, and not allowing these monks to secretly record some related things.

For the introduction of China's new inventions to the West, these monks or missionaries played an absolute role. How could Chen Ziming make such a low-level mistake.

Through Chen Ziming's insinuations, Chen Ziming also learned a lot about the situation in several other countries.

Although the Guishuang Empire, which is closest to the Han Dynasty, has a large land area, it is much weaker than the Han Dynasty, and the area occupied by the later Tajik stretches to the Caspian Sea, Afghanistan and the Indus River Basin.

However, the internal contradictions of the Guishuang Empire are sharp, and the population is not large, and the military strength is far less than that of the big men. It is a country that is easy to bully.

As for the Parthian Empire, it can also be called the Parthian Empire. Its location is almost the entire territory of Iran, Iraq, and Armenia in later generations, and parts of Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and Afghanistan. The big man is small and powerful.

As for the Roman Empire farther away, its territory includes almost the whole of Europe, West Asia and North Africa.

But to Chen Ziming's relief, the big man today is definitely the strongest, with the largest population and military strength, and the most sophisticated weapons and equipment.

The Silk Road started from the Han Dynasty, passed through the Guishuang Empire and the Parthian Empire, and finally reached the Roman Empire. It can be said that it traversed the four major empires of the time.

These monks are not actually authentic monks, they are just a group of ascetic monks on the edge of the Parthian Empire. Buddhism originated in Tianzhu, that is, ancient India, and now part of it is occupied by the Guishuang Empire, and the others are not very powerful.

Buddhism already existed in the Parthian Empire, but the religion of the Parthian Empire was not limited to Buddhism, so the monks looked at the big man who did not have a strong religion.

After learning about this, Chen Ziming had a plan. He immediately organized a caravan and went back the same way with these monks. The caravan brought a lot of special products of the great man, the most of which was the world-famous silk.

Chen Ziming formed a caravan not only to re-open the Silk Road, he not only sent some businessmen who knew how to do business, but also sent Liu Bei's envoy to bring the friendship of the great man.

Of course, these are superficial, and the most important thing is that, except for a few big Han envoys and merchants, the rest of the entire caravan are all elites carefully selected by the dark guards.

Their task is to draw maps, understand the customs of various places, and collect various materials. At the same time, they are preparing to lay down roots in various places and collect all the information about the ancient countries on the Silk Road.

"Ziming, is it really necessary to do this? The Guishuang Empire, which is the closest to my big man, is tens of thousands of miles away." Liu Bei knew what Chen Ziming wanted to do, but now that the big men are unified, they set their sights tens of thousands of miles away. Isn't the Silicon Frost Empire a bit too far-sighted?

"Brother, now you also know how big this world is." Chen Ziming's eyes flickered, and he said excitedly in his heart: "Besides the big man, there are many vast and fertile lands, and the power there is very weak, and the life there The level is very low.”

"I understand what you mean." Why didn't Liu Bei understand Chen Ziming's thoughts? Let's see how Fuzhou, Jizhou, and Heilongzhou came to be, and then look at what Jiangdong is going to do. Isn't it just expanding outward and constantly expanding.

Liu Bei doesn't know why Chen Ziming is so keen on expanding outwards. In Liu Bei's view, the Dahan has enough territory now, and now the Dahan is the best place. The surrounding places are all barren land. In a bitter cold place, precious lives were sacrificed.

"Brother, you don't understand." Chen Ziming shook his head and said: "The big man is not big enough, the territory of the big man is not enough, the people of the big man are not rich enough, and the vision of the big man is not long enough."

Chen Ziming became more and more excited as he spoke. He pointed to the land other than the big man on the map and said, "Here, there are fertile plateau land, there are countless minerals, and here is a kind of black water that the big man will need in the future."

"To the east of the Han Dynasty is the sea. Today, there are no enemies from the sea to the east of the Han Dynasty. But in the future, when other major countries in the world have powerful navies, the sea areas of the Han Dynasty will no longer be safe. Therefore, the Han Dynasty must build a strong navy. "

"And there are countless countries in the north, west and southwest of the Han Dynasty. They are still very weak, so weak that they can still be controlled by the Han Dynasty. But in the future, hundreds of years later, thousands of years later, these countries will always be Once it grows stronger, the big man will face the prying eyes of countless wolves."

"Brother." Chen Ziming said sincerely to Liu Bei: "I hope that in my lifetime, I can bring the big man to the point where the whole world looks up to him, and make the big man so huge that after any enemy sees the territory of the big man, there will be no trace of invasion. thought."

Chen Ziming's words shocked Liu Bei deeply. Liu Bei's eyes were only on the Central Plains. He wanted to unify the Central Plains and reproduce the glory of the great Han.

However, Chen Ziming's eyes were indeed on the whole world, and the mere Central Plains region could not satisfy Chen Ziming's appetite at all.

"But..." Liu Bei frowned and said, "Is it really possible? Who can manage such a vast country."

Liu Bei looked at the place where Chen Ziming's fingers passed, and it was Chen Ziming's target. It was ten times bigger than today's big man. It may take several years to walk from east to west.

"I know what big brother is worried about." Chen Ziming looked at Liu Bei who was frowning and thinking, and said, "But as long as the system is perfect, there will be no problems, and in the future, we will build countless strong and wide roads to connect every corner of Dahan."

In fact, Chen Ziming is also worried that with today's traffic conditions, when the country reaches a certain size, the centralized power cannot manage it at all, and it is very easy to split.

But so what, those places are still part of the big man, and sooner or later they will be unified.
