Chapter 121: The Family's Considerations
"There are Huns on the northern grasslands, the Northern Huns!"
Chen Xi felt his scalp tingling after hearing this.
Anyone who knows the history of the Han Dynasty will know these three words: Northern Huns.
For the Han Dynasty, the Northern Huns were mortal enemies, and for all indigenous peoples, fighting the Northern Huns was almost a bloodline inheritance.
If there is any way to whitewash Lu Bu in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, killing the Huns is definitely the most effective one.
Not to mention the three-surname servants of Lu Bu in the novel, even if it was Lu Bu who had five-surname servants, he could immediately clear himself by killing a few thousand Huns.
There was only one politically correct thing in the Han Dynasty, and that was to fight the Huns.
Since the time of Emperor Wu of Han, eating, sleeping and fighting the Huns became the three unchanging things in the Han Dynasty.
This is evident from the fact that even a wise man like Jia Xu immediately began to prepare countermeasures when he learned that the Northern Huns still existed.
There is no way. There are few empires in the world fighting each other to the death, and even fewer that fight to the point of national destruction and extinction.
The Xiongnu occupied the northern grasslands in the past and were definitely the world's number one empire at the time. As their neighbor, the Han Dynasty suffered a lot from them.
It was not until the reign of Emperor Wu of Han that the Han Dynasty rose up to fight, relying on the rich wealth left by the rule of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, and the emergence of the two pillars of the empire, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
Emperor Wu of Han did not completely defeat the Huns, but only pulled them off the throne of being the world's number one.
Then, the Han Dynasty produced nearly six generations of wise rulers before the Xiongnu was finally defeated.
Although in the late Western Han Dynasty, the Huns were divided into two parts, the Northern Huns and the Southern Huns, and the Northern Huns retreated far away, it did not stop the Han Dynasty's obsession with fighting the Huns.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Dou Xian even went deep into the northern desert and defeated the Northern Huns in Yanran Mountain, leaving behind the famous story of "Inscribing the Stone at Yanran". Since then, the Northern Huns completely disappeared.
Logically speaking, with the Han Dynasty fighting so hard, the Huns would definitely be completely wiped out, but the world is so wonderful that the Northern Huns still survived tenaciously.
In history, the Huns even migrated westward to Central Asia to act tyrannically, and when Attila became the leader of the Huns, he even earned the reputation of "Scourge of God."
Although the current Northern Huns are far from the Hun Empire at its peak, they are still alive and will inevitably come into conflict with the Han Dynasty.
"Anything else?" Chen Xi looked at Guo Hao and asked. The situation was indeed quite dangerous.
With the two former mortal enemies lurking around the Central Plains, it's no wonder that Guo Hao and the others were so anxious to choose a decisive battle.
"There is also the Goryeo region in the northeast. Like the Dongying region, its strength has been forcibly raised. It is probably also an empire of the lowest level."
Guo Hao himself felt a little suffocated. All in all, the big man had to fight on five fronts, and each opponent was not so easy to deal with.
"Ah, it seems that deciding the outcome in one battle is the most difficult!" Chen Xi sighed.
"Hahahaha, it's good that Zichuan has such confidence!" Guo Hao couldn't help laughing as he looked at Chen Xi, who didn't take the potential danger seriously at all.
He was indeed worrying too much. With two powerful cheats, one civil and one military, how could he not win?
"Compared to military strategies and planning, I am better at making the areas under my rule prosperous. As long as we are strong enough, we can easily defeat them when the time comes." Chen Xi could not deny it.
Although he had never come into contact with these things before and had only seen them in books at most, after understanding the functions of the attributes, he realized that there would be no shortage of supplies in the Han Dynasty as long as he was there.
Political attributes will increase resources according to political attribute points.
It doesn't sound like much, but Chen Xi clearly feels that he can at least increase the output of his subordinates by five times, and it can also weaken natural disasters, which will definitely make their development surpass that of all empires.
Roughly speaking, in the same acre of land, Chen Xi's administration can produce 5,000 kilograms of grain, while even a character with a political rank of 100 can only produce 2,000 kilograms.
The larger the base number, the greater the gap. Once the gap is widened, it will be impossible for anyone to surpass Chen Xi in this regard.
Ever since Chen Xi learned about the situation, he became very ruthless, and his slacking nature was aroused to the extreme.
A salted fish that is forced into a corner is the most terrifying. Chen Xi simply closed the door and started writing and drawing under the protection of the army, intending to formulate a complete development plan.
To be honest, Chen Xi also felt that he was a little abnormal. After his spirit was strengthened, not only his thinking was extremely active, but his reactions were also extremely fast.
A plan covering a ten-year development plan was produced in less than three hours.
However, Chen Xi, who had a deep sense of crisis, did not stop at all. After just one meal, he took out the plan again and began to check for omissions and fill in the gaps.
Guo Hao did not disturb Chen Xi. Since Chen Xi was working hard, he couldn't fall behind.
After much hesitation, Guo Hao still did not bring guards with him. He thought that the noble families in Yingchuan were not so stupid and would not force an attack on him, a great general.
After all, he is an extraordinary person and will not die even if he is killed. The thousand-year-old families in Yingchuan should not be so stupid as to offend him for no reason.
What's more, he didn't show any sign of being at odds with the aristocratic family. In fact, he came here to recruit talents, and they should all be one family.
The head of the Xun family looked at the visiting card sent by the servant and frowned slightly, feeling a little headache.
In fact, he received the news on the first day that the new general Guo Hao arrived in Yingchuan, but he had not thought clearly until Guo Hao came to him whether he should bet on Guo Hao.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion and the death of Liu Hong had allowed him to find many clues, and every sign indicated that troubled times were coming.
Troubled times are the turning point for every aristocratic family. The reason why the ancient aristocratic families have been able to pass down to this day is due to their extremely bloody way of inheritance.
The family separated the outstanding sons and daughters and placed their bets on different princes.
Those who survive are the direct descendants, the main family, and those who die are the cornerstones. This is how the blood transfusion of the aristocratic families is accomplished.
Even such a cautious bet may not guarantee the continuation of the family.
For example, the three brothers of the Zhuge family, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Dan, each ruled a country.
Zhuge Liang returned to Shu, Zhuge Jin returned to Wu, and Zhuge Dan stayed in Wei. Although none of them had the last laugh, the ability of the aristocratic families in betting was evident.
The head of the Xun family looked at the detailed information about his outstanding children with a headache.
There are only four young men who can match the position of general: Xun Yu, Xun Yan, Xun Chen and Xun You, but none of them are at home.
Xun Yu ran to Chenliu, Xun Yan ran to Jiangdong, Xun You went to find his uncle Xun Yu, and Xun Chen ran to the north to look for a wise leader.
The other disciples don’t even have spiritual talent, and sending them out would simply offend Guo Hao.
For a moment, the head of the Xun family was a little distressed. Guo Hao seemed to be in a good position, but in fact he was a tree without roots. If he wanted them to bet on him, he had to at least give them something that could give them hope, otherwise it would be impossible.
But now no aristocratic family supports Guo Hao. In their eyes, Guo Hao is simply a vanguard for the king.
