"Husband, you haven't been home for a day." In the palace, Chang Le sat in front of Su Li with his chin in his hands, a look of dissatisfaction on his face. "Has it been a day?" Su Li raised an eyebrow. After his attributes exceeded 200, Su Li was beyond the scope of human beings and basically did not need sleep. However, the northwest was vast and there were many ethnic groups. The documents left behind were almost massive. Su Li was not aware of it for a moment and devoted himself to it, but he did not distinguish it. time. "This land in the northwest is so vast, with so many ethnic groups and so many things. After looking at it for a whole day, I lost track of time." Su Li shook his head and sighed. "Are you acclimated when you first came here?" Su Li asked with a smile. "That's not true. It's just that compared to Chang'an, people's livelihood here is too poor... But fortunately, I have Snow Goose to accompany me, and Che'er is quite lively. She just ran around and went hunting!" Changle said with a smile. Compared with Chang'an, even the location of Su Li's palace is rural. The city wall is quite tall, but the city is also sparsely populated. If you leave the town, you may not be able to see anyone even if you walk for a long time, not to mention the roads. It can be said that there are almost no roads. After all, the land of the Central Plains has gone through thousands of years of construction. This place is just a barren land that civilization cannot touch.

"Shangdang is like this. I can't even imagine what it will be like going to the northwest." Changle shook his head and said. "I have been to... that place. There is not even a proper road... and there are no villages. Most of the Hu people live in no fixed places. It is common for ten and a half months to be without a human being. "Further to the extreme west, there are mostly deserts. If people go in, they will basically be unable to get out if they get lost. Further to the north, there are snowfields, with severe cold weather and year-round wind and snow..." Su Li said. Su Li's fiefdom was so big that it almost spanned the seasons. This side is slightly closer to the Central Plains, and the climate is barely normal. As for the outside? It can be said that it is spring here in Shangdang, summer in the west, and Tutian in Beijian... "It's such a big place with so few people. It's difficult for me to inform you of anything...~/..." Su Li sighed. Here, the most difficult thing is to gather people together to convey orders. In such a vast place, it is not an exaggeration to say that most of the small tribes are isolated from the world. It may even take a year and a half before they accidentally learn that this place has a new owner. "This Shangdang is not a place to stay for a long time..." Su Li sighed with emotion. "I'm afraid we will go to Tubo when we turn around. Madam, please make some preparations early." Su Li knocked on the table and said. "Ah? Going to Tubo?" Changle was slightly surprised. "Shangdang is too far south... Although it is adjacent to the Tang Dynasty, it is livable and life is better, but the places where barbarians gather in my fiefdom are mostly in the far northwest. If the palace When it comes to Shangdang, it would take ten days and a half for the soldiers and officials to deliver the message and execute the order, and it may not be delivered even for a year and a half." Su Li said. The reason is very simple. This territory is too big. Shangdang, where Su Li is currently located, is equivalent to the southeastern part of Su Li's fiefdom. The living conditions here are better, and the number of Han people is the largest. As for the place where the Hu people gather, it is across from Su Li. Thousands of miles. If Su Li wants to change customs and truly establish his own country here, he must base himself in the center of the northwest and be able to radiate to the entire northwest faster and better. Tubo is a good place, based on the plateau. After the construction of Songtsan Gampo and Ludongtsan, there is land that can be cultivated, sufficient water sources, and the foundation for building a cluster city. Going down the plateau is the grassland, and further south is Shangdang. Going northwest from the plateau is the snow-capped mountains.

This place can radiate all Su Li's fiefdoms, and message delivery can be more immediate. As for Shangdang, in Su Li's eyes, it is equivalent to a window to Datang. If Su Li wants to rule the northwest and change customs, he needs a large base of Han people. Su Li can attract a large number of immigrants with her own appeal. Coupled with some preferential policies, it is not difficult to attract a population of one or two million. There is no way, the population base is too small, who knows how long it will take just to have children? The Tang Dynasty had a population of at least 20 million, and a population of two to three million from Li Er was not excessive. This is also to quickly assimilate the foreigners in the Western Regions and carry out a real change of customs. Without a sufficient base of Han people, changing customs is a pure joke. "My current plan is to rely on the Central Plains to introduce population, build pillar industries, increase food production, change customs, eliminate all obscene descendants, beliefs, and abolish all the messy languages, writings, and customs of the Hu people. These things are not nested in the Shangdang It can be done. However, no matter how much Tubo is built, it is not as livable as Shangdang. If you are not used to staying there, you can always go back to Shangdang. "Su Li said. Changle shook his head and rested his head on Su Li's shoulder. "How could I be separated from my husband?" Changle could hear the ambition in Su Li's words. In the past, the husband was always tepid and uncontested. Now he may have his own fiefdom, hold great power, have new ambitions, and want to do something big. Changle is very supportive of his husband. Although I am very greedy for the warmth of my husband by my side, shouldn’t a man do something big? My husband has been with me for so long, and now I finally have new ambitions. ABS...... Come and accompany your husband instead! '."Yes." Su Li nodded and gently hugged Chang Le's waist. "It's a mess here, but there are no rules. As long as I don't find it boring, I can handle political affairs without her being there," Su Li said. "But even if I want to go to Tubo, I'm not in a hurry." Su Li shook his head. "Before that, I'm afraid I have to go out for a while! Gather all the Hus and take a look!" Su Li's eyes flashed with murderous intent! Su Li really intends to change customs, but the road to changing customs (Qian Zhao) has always been accompanied by blood and killing! The First Emperor unified the writing, language and thought of the system, and it is unknown how many people died among them. Su Li changes customs and integrates cultures. It sounds gentle, but it is more terrifying and difficult than killing. Listen, destroy the other party’s language, literature, history, beliefs and customs! Let the other party convince you of your language, writing, history, beliefs, and customs!

This matter is difficult. Given the vastness of the northwest, it is impossible for ordinary people to summon all the barbarians. It would take more than ten years just to send messages on horseback... So Su Li planned to make a trip on his own. He had Bai Long, and Bai Long could share one of Su Li's attributes. With Bai Long's current foot power, it would only take a month or two at most to summon the barbarians. If you support it, keep it; if you don’t support it, die! Su Li does need some Hu officials to facilitate the better implementation of the change of customs, but it does not mean that Su Li can tolerate the violation of Yin and Yang!
