Steel Dynasty - Chapter 1076

[Chapter 1067 Strategy]

The darker the night, the brighter the lights of the palace become.

The official putting of wired telephones into use is undoubtedly a major event for the empire. With the explosive growth of the empire’s talents, the empire’s technology will also explode.

So for Xiao Ming, this is just a natural thing, and it is also the result that should be obtained after more than ten years of accumulation.

Because of this, he is not too worried about technological development now. For him, the most important thing now is how to plan the territory of the future empire.

“Today you are gathered here because of the phone call. Why don’t you take this opportunity to talk about the strategic issues of the empire in the future? The mortars have been transported to Nanyang, and the war in Nanyang will soon break out. If the war goes well, we It may be necessary to take over a region with a population almost equal to that of the empire. For this reason, your cabinet must be mentally prepared. “

For India, the cabinet ministers now have a basic understanding of this region.” Fiji said: “Your Majesty, the veteran thinks that for India.” India should adopt a strategy similar to that of Britain, which is to rule without governing. All the empire needs is to absorb wealth from India, and there is no need to waste resources on how to govern India.”

Pang Yukun and Fiji’s ideas are surprisingly consistent on this issue. Said: “I agree with Mr. Feige’s suggestion. I believe that overseas colonies should be managed according to local conditions. For Australia, a colony with only a small number of indigenous people and a vast area, we must send officials and relocate the population in accordance with the imperial policy. Governance, because this type of colonial empire can achieve real occupation. “

After a pause, he continued: “For colonies with a large number of indigenous people, such as Indonesia, the Philippines and other areas, we should adopt a high-pressure policy and force the indigenous leaders through war. Recognizing the empire’s dominance forces the indigenous leaders to serve the empire’s colonial economy. In this way, we can maximize benefits with only a small amount of cost. “

After Pang Yukun finished speaking, Zhan Xingchang said, “I have different ideas. I believe that the current population welfare policy implemented by the empire will inevitably lead to a sharp increase in population in the future. The current population of the empire is nearly 100 million. Within ten years, an increase of 30 million people will be more than enough. If time is extended further, the population will only grow in a straight line. , by then the domestic land will definitely not be able to meet the demand for land, so the empire should seize areas with excellent land resources in advance before this problem arises. “

” Mr. Zhange meant that he could even massacre the local people for this purpose .

“Aborigines?” Yang Chengye heard the hidden meaning in Zhan Xingchang’s mouth.

Zhan Xingchang nodded and said loudly: “Everyone, with the advancement of the empire’s science and technology, the empire’s civilization and ideas will surely radiate to every corner of the world, and facts have proven that the so-called racial superiority theory in the West is extremely wrong. Yes, any race can master advanced scientific and technological knowledge as long as they receive a good education. Once these civilizations are civilized, they will no longer be willing to be ruled by the empire. They will definitely seek independence in the future, and by then, the empire that once ruled and oppressed them will Become their biggest enemy.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ming nodded slightly. As the empire becomes stronger and stronger, many people are already thinking about the future of the empire.

“Mr. Zhange’s words may be a bit wishful thinking. It is already very valuable to properly govern the empire. Now the empire simply does not have that many officials to govern the entire world. Moreover, killing the natives will only cause the colonies to fall into chaos and intensify conflicts. The empire will spend a lot of military expenditures to maintain The colonies are stable, this is just one colony, two, three, four, or even more, why is the empire wasting so much money?” Fiji said.

“The most important thing is to kill all the indigenous people. Who will sell the industrial products of the empire? Therefore, this matter is a lose-lose matter. Western countries probably hope that the empire will fall into the quagmire of war with the indigenous people.”

Zhan Xingchang smiled, He said: “So, what I mean is to occupy the good land and adopt Feige’s approach to the low-value land. At present, I only focus on Australia, North America, South America and India. Among them, the number of indigenous people in the first three places is Not much, and the Western colonists basically drove out the local indigenous people. We only need to drive away the Westerners to successfully control these three areas, but the Indian population is too large…”

After saying that, Zhan Xingchang looked at Xiao Ming.

“India is a natural plantation. Since it is a plantation, it requires a large number of people to work. Massacre is not beneficial to the empire, but it will still be a potential threat to the empire in the future. For this reason, we need to support dozens of countries here, and Not one.” Xiao Ming said lightly. Compared with mineral resources, India is not actually rich, but India’s vast plains are very suitable for the growth of crops. Because of this, India can feed a large population with such a small amount of land.

In fact, he already had his own ideas about the issue that everyone is discussing now. As Zhan Xingchang said, the civilization of the empire will definitely bring changes to the world. This is a natural law. The invasion of advanced civilization by barbarian civilization will lead to Advanced civilization falls into decline.

When advanced civilization invades barbaric civilization, it will bring its own advanced culture. For example, human exploration of space has come to a standstill due to technological limitations in the contemporary era. However, if alien civilization arrives, earth’s technology will develop rapidly. Of course, it is also possible that people on earth will be like North Americans. The Indians were also exterminated.

As for why Western colonists engaged in large-scale industrial construction in the colonies, the reason is actually very simple. One is to sell goods, and the second is to improve the consumption level of the colonies and sell more goods.

Therefore, in addition to strictly controlling weapons and cutting-edge technology, colonists in history were willing to transfer low-tech industrial technology.

Now there are similar voices in the empire, and many officials have suggested that the empire open low-end technologies to colonial countries.

In this way, the empire can gain huge profits, and the consumption power of colonial countries can also be increased, thereby promoting the sale of the empire’s high-end industrial products in the colonies.

“As far as I know, this India is composed of many princely states, each doing its own thing, and is not a complete country.” Pang Yukun said.

“This is indeed the case, but the present does not represent the future. In order to prevent problems before they occur, we must consider this.” Xiao Ming said.

Although contemporary India is known as a country where 100 million people manage 1.1 billion livestock, this country still has the ability to disgust people, and he will not give them this opportunity.

Three changes to tomorrow.
