In late winter, Guanzhong ushered in a new snow season.
The earth is covered with snow, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are covered with a layer of silver, rivers are frozen, and people come to winter every year.
It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year. People have long been looking forward to a few thick snow. When the flowers bloom in spring next year, the land will absorb more water, so as to moisten the dry land and make drought a history of the past.
Under the snowy weather, the palace city is also covered with layers of snow. After attending the Grand Court meeting, the officials went out of the Jianzhang palace hall and stepped on the channel that had just been cleaned up. Those who should go back to the office Yamen in the palace city may not choose to go home.
"It's finally settled."
"Yes, it was originally scheduled to be held in the eleventh year of Yuanshuo. Now it is the end of the twelfth year of Yuanshuo."
"New Year's Day is the beginning of the new year. Naturally, it is a great auspicious day."
"Unfortunately, the proposal to change the year was rejected by his majesty."
The main topic of the great court meeting was to proclaim the emperor and determine the time of the ceremony. The mood of the officials was excited.
Yuanshuo is the year after Liu Yan officially founded the people's Republic of China. Yuanshuo is also the first new day of the year (i.e. the first day of the first month). The original choice of this year is that the Han people need a new start and embark on the journey of rejuvenation.
Now the old land of the Han family has been completely recovered, and even many lands that the ancestors wanted to fight but couldn't fight have been included in the territory.
Monan is now the northern Xinjiang of the Han Dynasty. It is vigorously developing animal husbandry, providing a large amount of wool for the mainland and supporting the textile industry.
The Han Army also crossed the desert and swamp into Mobei, which is not used now, but only as a bridgehead.
In addition to the border troops stationed in Mobei, the Han Army also stationed a standing army for a long time. In the west, it is aimed at xigaoche, in the north, it is aimed at Rouran tribal alliance, and in the northeast, it has been fighting with Murong remnant and Tuoba remnant.
In the southwest, the Han people advanced again after the demise of the Eastern Han Dynasty. They crossed the farthest position their ancestors could reach and entered the deep mountains and forests. At present, they are directly connected from the land to the sea in the west, expanding the size of the Qin Empire for future generations.
In the northeast, the trace of the Han people has appeared within the Arctic Circle, and even the fleet has directly driven into the area full of ice. If the conditions do not allow, they should step on the north pole and put a flag, indicating that the north pole is also a sacred and indivisible land of the Han people from now on.
In terms of orientation, the east of the (Korean) Peninsula is actually the sea. After crossing the Strait is the Japanese islands, and then to the East is later Alaska. From the land in the west to the land in the East, the sea belongs to the Han people.
Fall over each other is not the territory of the Han Kingdom, but it is not so different. The ordinary Japanese people are eager to become a person with a registered residence in the Han Dynasty. The Japanese noble nobles want to be attached to it. What is more, they say that the Japanese army stationed over two hundred thousand of the Japanese army has been stationed in the county for a long time.
Liu Yan changed Alaska's name to Near East. It probably means the North American land nearest to the East.
There are already Han strongholds in the Near East. Due to the extremely bad environment, many strongholds have been established, but there are not many people in each stronghold. Their task is to explore that continent and offshore, so as to lay a foundation for entering the North American continent in the future.
In the south, the mainland is directly the mainland of Han, extending to the sea. All the explored islands are included in the territory. At present, the farthest exploration is in the waters of Guam. The navy is trying to find a string of islands (Hawaii) mentioned by Liu Yan, but the progress is not ideal.
"We also have borders overseas." Liu Yan stood beside a hung map, pointed to the a San continent and looked at the people: "not counting the sea area, the territory of the Han Dynasty is twice as large as that of the previous Han Dynasty!"
After the great court meeting, Liu Yan held another small meeting with the core ministers at the regular meeting. Three gongs and nine Qings, including important military officials, were present.
"The A-San mainland meeting is the land where the Han Dynasty opened another different surname enfeoffment. It has also been announced at the great dynasty meeting, and it will be officially circulated in the di newspaper." Liu Yan looked at sitting upright, but he was full of happy ministers: "your first fief will be here."
Today's imperial meeting dropped two heavy bombs in a row. The first is to determine the time of the imperial ceremony, and the second is to confirm the enfeoffment of different surnames.
In the fourth year of Yuanshuo, Liu Yan went to the throne of emperor Jin in Mount Tai and officially challenged zhengshuo of Sima family. In the seventh year of Yuanshuo, he became a unique zhengshuo.
In the ninth year of Yuanshuo, there was a enfeoffment at that time, but it was limited to a very small range. At that time, Ji Chang, as prime minister, solemnly opposed it, and most ministers did not agree to the actual enfeoffment. The main reason was that the old land of the Han family had not been recovered at that time, let alone such a large territorial expansion.
From the ninth year of Yuanshuo to the twelfth year of Yuanshuo, the land officially accepted as Han soil in just three years. The area is indeed far more than the estimates of all central dignitaries, including Liu Yan. According to various statistics, it has even reached 6 million square kilometers.
From the ninth year of Yuanshuo to the twelfth year of Yuanshuo, it was really an exaggerated peak of expansion. Although most of the newly expanded land were islands, it really laid a size of the Western Han Dynasty.
In the process of bringing those islands into the territory of the Han state, the Han people did not encounter man-made strong resistance during the expansion. What caused trouble to the Han people was only how to conquer nature.
Look at the map hung up. The islands of the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia have basically become Chinese soil.
Look at the location of the Indochina Peninsula. The whole land from the rising sea (South 1 sea) to the a'san ocean is also Han soil, which is directly connected from the land to the a'san continent.
"There is no doubt about the strength of the great man." What Liu Yan desperately needs to wake up is: "but compared with our population, the land is really too large."
Eating and supporting is a fact recognized by all the big guys, which is a happy worry. Liu Yan personally revisited enfeoffment. People with similar thinking have long been willing to extend this topic. In addition to selfishness, it really needs enfeoffment.
"Zhu Qing..." Liu Yan walked back to his position, sat down and looked around: "at present, you must do two things well. The matter of enfeoffment and coexistence with other countries are all major events, so you can't be careless."
The ministers naturally stood and saluted: "promise!"
Liu Yan will not personally decide who should be assigned where. He will still be a referee.
For the Han country, which can not expand endlessly, how to get along with other countries also needs to be studied.
"My Lord." LV Yi endured for a long time and felt that the time was right: "Daqin and Sasan envoys put forward an idea..."
