As a son of an aristocratic family, Xun Chen was very aware of the family's greed, but this greed was also one of the driving forces behind the family's crazy progress.
Because only this kind of greed that wants to grab everything can make the family strive to move forward, and can the family have the courage to swallow an elephant. Maybe countless people will fall in the process, but in order to seize the highest glory , and more people will come forward.
The feud has been made, and we can't win it, but it doesn't matter, wait a little longer, our Yuan family will use our capital to connect these aristocratic families, you wait in Rome, if you don't start a three-continent war, my Yuan family's family crest Draw it backwards!
What can I say about the current situation of the Yuan family? If you want to say that it is good, it is indeed the best among all the aristocratic families, but if you want to say that it is bad, it definitely deserves to be bad.
If the Yuan family, which is located in the extended area of Sizhao City, wants to expand, it must choose Eastern Europe. However, even if Rome has short legs, it at least knows that there is room for others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch. In other words, once it enters Eastern Europe, the Yuan family and Rome will have nothing to do with each other. Conflict is almost inevitable.
What's more, the Yuan family has offended Rome, and Rome even sent people to beat the Yuan family unceremoniously. This seemingly just beating method, for the Yuan family, is basically equivalent to laying down hidden dangers for the future. When the Yuan family entered Eastern Europe, Rome would inevitably appear.
Whether it is to eliminate its own hidden dangers or to defeat the Yuan family, Rome will definitely take action. This is not good news at all for the Yuan family.
"How about it, do you want to try the beauty of Rome?" An uncertain smile appeared on Xun Chen's face, while Xun and others were thoughtful.
"After the Battle of Han and Gui, the territory of the Cao family was basically forcibly determined. If you want to continue to develop by then, I am afraid that the only option is to cross the sea. And across the sea, in any case, it is the radiation area of Rome. ." Xun Chen looked at the four people opposite him with half-squinted eyes.
Chen Qunxu was working on a few cases. Unlike Cheng Yu, who was proficient in tactics and did not think about it for a long time, Chen Qun had really thought about the choice they should make after defeating Guishang. As Xun Chen said, cross the sea and enter Africa is almost the only option.
It’s just that judging from the current situation in Rome, Africa is a difficult place to get hands on. It’s better to be far away, but if it is too close, Rome will never mind cutting off the Cao family who reaches out. For a prosperous empire To me, this is almost instinctive.
"The capital is not enough, and it doesn't mean much to us." Xun looked at his brother and said silently.
"No, it's just that we don't have enough capital now. Sooner or later we will have enough capital." Xun Chen shook his head and rejected Xun Chen's answer, "What kind of existence are we people, what kind of existence are the families behind us, in our hearts Countless."
Xun Chen was not joking. He knew very well how far a family that had obtained a large amount of land, seized the essence of an empire, and absorbed the nutrients of Anxi could grow.
Maybe no change will be seen in five or ten years, but after a generation passes, Xun Chen estimates that the total number of things on the Parthian territory may be stronger than the former Parthian Empire.
Under these preconditions, their Yuan family is doing crazy exports in Eastern Europe, Northern Europe, and Great Britain. The current Parthian Empire families are in Central Asia and are making trouble in West Asia. Cao Cao and some families near the Persian Gulf are exporting across the sea. Sea, naval battles, those who can go to Africa are exported in Africa. Although Rome is strong, it may not be able to push so many.
Based on Xu You's plan back then, it was definitely not possible to go eastward anyway, and the places to the east were barren lands, but to go west, Eastern Europe was really a good place, even if it could only be planted once a year, it wouldn't be possible. Worthy of the foundation of the imperial industry.
It can be said that the biggest problem is Roma who is next to him. But is the relationship between the Yuan family and Roma good? Damn it, Rome may be able to kill the Yuan family easily in the future. In that case, what else is there to talk about? You kill me for ten years, and when I gain power, I will kill you directly.
Xun Chen, Shen Pei and these people no longer pursue victory within ten years. In the next ten or even twenty years, the Yuan family will definitely be at a comprehensive disadvantage against Rome, and this disadvantage is likely to be controlled by Rome. Don't beat the Yuan family to death.
What a humiliation this is. In the eyes of other aristocratic families, being able to compete with the top empire, even if they are beaten badly, is enough to be called powerful as long as they are alive. But for Xun Chen, why should he use this way to show your strength.
The hegemony that we have worked so hard and exhausted to create is just like this in your eyes? But if you can't win, you can't win. Since you know this in your heart, then when you can't win, you will lower your head silently, endure all the humiliation, and wait for the final opportunity to come.
"If we have enough capital, we probably won't have the intention to attack Rome." Xun You suddenly said, "If we want to take action, we must do it when we have reached the peak in all aspects. If we delay it too long..."
Xun You didn't speak, but everyone knew that if it was delayed for too long, I'm afraid no one would really provoke Rome, and peace would wear away the will in many cases.
Therefore, Xun You knew very well that what Xun Chen said was likely to happen in the next ten years. In other words, after the alliance was truly formed, the Yuan family would definitely start to have friction with Rome in the ninth or tenth year from now. .
This is definitely not a short war, but a long war lasting ten years or even a hundred years, and the scope of the war will be very large.
"It won't take too long." Xun Chen shook his head and said, "It may only take one to two generations for us to grow to a population of 20 million, and those guys in Central Asia can basically do so within such a time. China has developed to the same level, and you are pretty much the same."
"Together, we will be a huge alliance similar to the current Han Dynasty. However, Rome is limited by their situation. The number of people who can increase it to 100 million is already the limit. Their development potential is locked by themselves. Xun Chen crossed his hands and said cautiously.
"That said, it's not enough." Xun shook his head and said.
Xun Chen was silent. He knew that what Xun said was that the benefits were not enough, but in this matter everyone could only get what they needed. The Yuan family had a clear goal of winning Eastern Europe. As long as they really won it, they would only need to build walls high and accumulate grain widely. , three generations later, without relying on these people to compete with Rome, the Yuan family has nothing to fear, because at that size, even if they lose, they will not die!
The problem is that Xun bluntly pointed out this point, which is not very good for Xun Chen. Attacking Rome across the sea is indeed the development direction of the Cao family, but even if it is obtained, it will only be an enclave for Cao Cao , unless Cao Cao dared to give up Beigui's natural security and Beigui's wealth, and took his entrepreneurial team to Africa.
However, compared to Yuan's Mao Yao, if Cao Cao chooses to move his team to Africa, it will be more than just a little bit dangerous. It is almost equivalent to starting a business again. If it succeeds, Cao Cao will be established in Africa and create another business. There is no problem with the imperial industry, and it can be said that it has completely escaped the control of the Han Dynasty, but if it fails...
"I'm surprised, why don't you go in and listen?" Chen Gong looked at Mao who suddenly appeared in front of him and said with a strange look on his face.
"No, I generally know what Xun Youruo will say." Mao shook his head and said, "No matter how you talk about this matter, it will be facilitated in the end, because we don't have many choices, so I won't go. "
Apart from Xun, the person with the best strategic vision under Cao Cao is probably Mao. He was able to propose a strategic plan early on to serve the emperor with orders but not ministers, farm crops, livestock and military resources. In terms of vision, it is really not a joke, so he discovered it early Disadvantages of entering Beigui from Herat.
Xun and others also discovered it, but this was the Han Dynasty, was it Liu Bei who tricked Cao Cao? Doesn’t count.
"I think you should go and listen. Maybe your friend Xun will reveal the secret!" Chen Gong poured himself a drink and helped Mao Ye pour a glass of wine.
"The Yuan family and Roma are facing each other. They are no match at all now, but as long as they hold on, there is no telling who will be in the future. Therefore, everything the Yuan family is doing now is to hold on until the future." Mao said calmly, holding the wine glass. "The empire is right in front of the Yuan family, so they will do everything they can to hold it on. Sometimes I even suspect that Chen Zichuan did it on purpose."
"No, there is no doubt, he did it on purpose." Chen Gong grinned, the two looked at each other, then raised their glasses together and drank the wine.
"Then if you say so, the Yuan family is not at a loss." Mao Chang sighed and said.
"Is there any loss or loss in this world? Life is important, but so is one's own struggle. At least when it was released, no one was optimistic about this step. But now that it has reached this level, who dares to say it is not the case? "Chen Gong was extremely calm. Chen Gong knew what the old Yuan family wanted to do and what Chen Xi wanted to do.
"Then do you think the Yuan family can really persuade those in Central Asia?" Mao asked, looking at Chen Gong with a smile.
"I don't think I can say it, but even if I can't say it, the old Yuan family still has to take action. Things like foundation cannot be left to others. What you get by your own ability is the safest. Relying on others is just a castle in the air. Ye Hou should know this very well, so even if the people in Zhongya don't move, the Yuan family will move." Chen Gong said softly.
Mao nodded. It is indeed the case. If we say which family is the most radical and the most terrifying among all the families in the world now, it goes without saying that it must be the Yuan family. It is not only the motivation for revenge, but also hegemony. motivation.
Therefore, for the Yuan family, the alliance between the Central Asian aristocratic families and even the Cao family is just picking up rabbits on New Year's Eve. They can celebrate the New Year with him or without him!
