Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 1969: The expected change

In the early years, the Son of Heaven sent three princes to North America successively.

They are the fifth son of Emperor Zhuang Guifei and Li Lu, King of Jin.

Followed by Kang Fei's sixth son, Zheng Wang Li Jing.

Thirdly, it was born to Concubine Jin, who had passed away at an early age, and was brought up by Queen Dong, the seventh son of the emperor, and King Li Cong of Song.

The above three princes are all princes who have vassalized North America, and they are also the only three vassal kings in North America that the Tang Dynasty canonized in North America.

Of course, although there are only three feudal lords in North America, it does not mean that the three feudal lords have divided up the entire land of North America.

Although it is said that when the Son of Heaven first conferred the three princes, he divided most of the North America he controlled and gave them to them. There are also northern states, but now, he only has an enlarged new Jinshan state as a fief.

Huang Liuzi and Zheng Wang Li Jing were also granted the title of Wuhu Prefecture and Central Prefecture in the early years, and the Central Prefecture of that year actually included a large part of the current New South Continent. Later, when North America changed its state, his fief became The enlarged Wuhuzhou.

The seventh son of the emperor and King of Lu, Li Cong, were awarded the title of Sanhezhou and Nanhezhou, but now they have become only one enlarged Nanhezhou.

This is because last year, after Li Xuan adjusted the states in North America, they were officially divided into seven states, and he also adjusted the fiefdoms of the three princes, instead of letting them continue to have multiple states, but one state per person.

At the beginning, Li Xuan mainly considered that North America is a good place. If he only gave three princes, it would not be fair to other princes.

And Li Xuan still has a lot of princes, and now there are seven or eight princes who have not been divided into adults, Li Xuan has to consider that other princes also have a fief.

Therefore, in today's North America, three of the seven states belong to the feudal lords, but there are still four states that have not been enfeoffed, and the New South Continent and Sanhe Continent in these four states are the empires in The true essence of North America.

And in the future, Li Xuan is not going to seal this New South Continent out. This place is too important, and Li Xuan plans to always be under the direct jurisdiction of the empire.

Don't mention the follow-up, just talk about the current situation in North America. The three vassal kings have been in North America for many years. Even if they are trash themselves and have no talent, there must be a large group of talented people in their respective palaces.

These people spend all day thinking about how to help their princes control real power, develop fiefs, and accumulate strength in order to prepare for future changes.

What's the change?

No one dared to say this, but everyone knew that it was the chaos after the death of the Son of Heaven.

Today, the Datang Empire seems to rule the world, but there are still many internal hidden dangers, especially the contradiction between the local and overseas territories, which can be suppressed in a short time, but it will definitely not be suppressed in the long run.

This can be seen from the situation on the North American side in recent years.

In this regard, many ministers in the court, especially those military and political leaders, believe that to strengthen the control of overseas territories, it is best to completely prohibit the localization and industrialization of overseas territories.

Let overseas territories honestly become local suppliers of agricultural products and industrial raw materials, and dumping grounds for industrial products.

As long as the overseas territories don't have enough industry, they can't have armed forces, so even a rebellion won't be a climate.

This is the unified idea of ​​many important officials of the Tang Dynasty.

but!

The Son of Heaven doesn't think so!

Holy Son of Heaven Li Xuan knew very well that forced suppression would not fundamentally solve the problem.

On the surface, you can prohibit the outflow of machinery and equipment, but people smuggle and secretly build arsenals. In fact, it is difficult to find out in the mainland. The Tatars can smuggle some machinery and equipment from the empire, not to mention the overseas territories within the empire system.

Second, even if you can stop the outflow of machinery, you can't stop the outflow of talent.

Don't you see, countless people immigrate overseas every year, especially those who go to North America, although most of them are farmers, but there is also no shortage of highly educated and highly skilled talents.

For these high-tech talents, people can grind a machine tool by hand, and then use the hand-built machine tool as an industrial mother machine to manufacture more machine tools and then more mechanical equipment.

As long as there are enough talents, in fact, in a few years, even if it is impossible to purchase local machinery and equipment, they can also establish a preliminary and simple industrial system.

Therefore, it is unrealistic to purely localize and prohibit technology leakage.

You are banned for a time, a year, ten years, but fifty years, a hundred years?

Besides, even in the mainland of the empire, there are many people who support overseas localization, such as companies that also have business in overseas regions.

For example, the American Mining Company is a typical example. You don't look at their company's headquarters in Shanghai, but their main business is in North America, where they have many gold, silver and copper mines.

At the same time, they have always been promoting the localization of the Americas, and at the worst, they have to allow them to use machinery and equipment in the mining industry, so that they can expand their production capacity and get involved in basic minerals such as coal and iron ore.

Instead of the current situation, we can only rely on manual mining of gold and silver, which is costly and difficult to expand.

Also, the Empire's Pacific Oil Company has also discovered traces of oil in the Americas. Since this year, they have been advocating localization in Sanhezhou in North America and imitating the Baku region, and then they can exploit oil!

In other words, even within the empire, there are many people who support the localization of North America.

Opponents and supporters, they are all for their own interests, and can find a lot of reasons.

As for the Holy Son of Heaven, for the current situation, he will continue to drag it until the radio comes out. When the ship's sailing speed is faster, and the guns and guns are more technically advanced, they will gradually let go of the localization of the Americas~www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Anyway, it is impossible to hold down the pressure, it is better to control it slowly.

However, Li Xuan, the Son of Heaven, can probably predict what will happen after the North American side is completely localized.

Rebellion is a high probability.

Especially when there is a conflict of interest between the manufacturing industry in North America and the local manufacturing industry, even if the three vassal kings are unwilling, the people below will push them to resist the Jinling side, but as long as the local side continues to maintain technical skills, especially There should be no problem in continuing to suppress North America due to its military-technical superiority.

As for what problems will arise in the longer future, this Li Xuan doesn't care. Anyway, it will be decades or even hundreds of years later.

If he had to worry about it, it had to be his crown prince Li Hao or simply his grandsons!
