Chapter 208: Laying down a piece of land with both hands

"Wow~" Li Su lifted the red cloth on the sphere, revealing a strange sphere supported by a shelf below, only to see that the ball was all blue, but on the blue, but there were patches of irregular yellow, which looked like patches, which was not beautiful at all.

"Sixth brother, this ...... What is this? Li Zhi looked at this strange ball, although it was not beautiful, but it was very exquisite, whether it was a bracket or a round ball, it seemed that it was carefully made by a master craftsman, so he was curious for a moment, leaned over and touched it with his hand, but was glared back by Li Su fiercely.

Others, such as Li Ke, Princess Changle and others, were also very curious, but they didn't dare to ask more when they saw that Li Ke's anger had not subsided. Li Chengqian and Li Tai were blocked at the entrance of the palace, they couldn't get out and couldn't get out, and they were too embarrassed to come back, so they couldn't advance or retreat for a while, so they had to stare at Li Su coldly.

"Not convinced, huh? Good! If you have a backbone, then I will only talk to the other brothers and sisters today, why does my father value me as a son so much, not only increase the guards around me, but even let me recruit private soldiers? Li Su looked at the two people in front of the hall and said with a sneer.

As soon as Li Su's words came out, Li Chengqian and Li Tai's faces changed greatly, and they knew that the number of King Qi's guards was exceeded, but they didn't expect that their father would even allow Li Su to recruit private soldiers, which is simply too indulgent for a prince! It's just that this sentence just hit the itch in their hearts, so although their faces were full of displeasure, they still flicked their sleeves and came back cheekily.

And Li Ke also knew about it for the first time. At the moment, he seemed hesitant, and he really couldn't believe that his father, who had always been shrewd, would agree to such a thing? As for Princess Changle next to her. His face was even more incredulous, and his gaze at Li Su was like looking at a monster. With her understanding of her father, the other party would never allow her son to control too much military power!

Although Li Chengqian and Li Tai both came back obediently, Li Su did not intend to let them go like this, but snorted coldly and said again: "The eldest husband was born in the world, so he should carry a three-foot sword like his father. What kind of husband is a man who makes immortal achievements, like you who fight to the death at home all day long? ”

Li Su's repeated sarcasm finally stimulated the always arrogant Li Tai. He shouted angrily and pointed at Li Su and said, "Li Su, what kind of thing are you, and what qualifications do you have to teach me?" Say that we are not husbands, then what are you, don't you still want the throne of your father in the end like us? ”

Compared with Li Tai, Li Chengqian was very calm, although he was also angry by Li Tai's words, but he could still stay calm, looking at the other party with a calm face and not speaking.

"What qualifications do I have?" Li Su looked at the two elder brothers, Li Tai and Li Chengqian, with a sneer. Then he looked around at the surrounding brothers and sisters, especially at Li Ke, Li Zhi and Princess Changle a few times, and then said, "Then I will tell you clearly today that I will not be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if I really want to be the emperor, then I will be like my father, and I will use my own hands to lay down a piece of the country!" ”

As soon as Li Su's bold words came out, I thought it would attract everyone's admiration. Unexpectedly, Li Zhi jumped up in fright, pointed at Li Zhi and exclaimed: "Sixth brother, you want to rebel?" ”

"Get out~, you're rebelling!" Li Su was almost angry with Li Zhi's words. In fact, it is not to blame Li Zhi for misunderstanding, Li Su said that he wanted to lay down a piece of the country, but he did not specify where to fight, and Li Zhi's knowledge of geography is all in the Central Plains, which is at most within the scope of the Tang Dynasty's rule, so when he heard Li Su's words, his first reaction was that his sixth brother wanted to rebel.

"Liulang, what do you mean by that, the Central Plains is all under the rule of my Tang Dynasty, where are you going to lay down a piece of the country?" Li Ke also reacted the same as Li Zhi at the beginning, but he had a calm personality, and after a little thought, he immediately dispelled this speculation, but his cognitive scope was all within the scope of Datang, so naturally he couldn't figure out what Li Ke was referring to?

"The world we live in is very big, not only the Central Plains, there are Western Regions and Turks in the west, Tubo, Liuzhao, Linyi and other countries in the south, Silla and Baekje in the east, and even the Wa Kingdom overseas, and there are many tribes in the northern grasslands. Li Su said with a proud face. He also felt a little helpless about the ancients' idea that the Central Plains is equal to the whole world, but fortunately now that he is here, he can one day reverse their arrogant concept.

When Li Su said the last sentence, his eyes turned to Li Chengqian and Li Tai, but for these bold words he said, they did not resonate with the two at all, especially Li Tai also said with some sneer: "Where can the wilderness be compared to the richness of the Central Plains?" ”

"The Savage Lands?" After hearing this, Li Su said with a sneer, "Fourth brother, I have to say that you are indeed very ignorant, do you know how many resources we need in the wild land in your mouth?" ”

"You ......"

Hearing that Li Su was targeting himself again, Li Taigang wanted to be angry, but he didn't expect Li Su to give him a chance to speak at all, grabbed the globe on the table and interrupted him: "Everyone may not know this thing, but I believe that all the brothers and sisters here should know what is called Hun Tian Shuo, according to the explanation of Hun Tian Shuo, the place we are in is a huge sphere, I will temporarily name this sphere the earth, and this thing in my hand is a model that will be made according to the shape of the earth, so it is named the globe ......"

Hearing that Li Su finally began to explain this strange sphere, everyone on the field fell silent, and even Li Tai and Li Chengqian held back their anger, wanting to see what tricks Li Su wanted to play?

Li Su showed the globe to everyone, and then pointed to the location of Datang and said: "Everyone, please see, this is the Datang where we are, although our Datang claims to have a vast land area, but in fact, it only accounts for one-tenth of the land area of the entire earth!" ”

"Wow~, Sixth Brother, according to what you mean, on this globe, all the yellow places are land, and the blue part is the ocean?" Li Zhi was very smart, and when he saw Li Su pointing to a yellow area and saying that it was the Tang Dynasty, he recalled the territory of the Tang Dynasty in his memory, and immediately understood the meaning of the color of the earth's meter surface.

"What the ninth brother said is right, although I named the ball under our feet the earth just now, but the area occupied by the land is not large, not even thirty percent, and the remaining seventy percent is all ocean, so really calculated, the territory of our Datang is only a few tenths compared to the earth, which is not remarkable at all!" Li Su continued to mercilessly hit everyone present, so that they could recognize the insignificance of Datang compared to the earth.

"No matter how big it is outside, our Datang is the real kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, and all the surrounding countries are subservient to the majesty of my Datang, can there be a more powerful country in this world than my Datang?" Li Tai read too many sage books, and he read all the sage books stupidly, but he still insisted on reporting the theory of the Heavenly Empire.

However, his words are right, because in the era of the Tang Dynasty, whether it is Rome, Persia or Arabs, they are several points worse than the Tang Dynasty, and Li Su really can't think of anything to refute this, but he has not answered another question raised by Li Tai just now, and now he just picked it up.

"Hmph, it is estimated that in your eyes, fourth brother, all the land outside of Datang is a wild land!" Li Su said and raised the globe in his hand, and pointed on it with the other hand, "This is the Goguryeo that our Datang has just laid, and the territory is rich in iron ore and coal mines, and now there are people developing it, this is the Wa Kingdom, the country is rich in silver mines, and here is Linyi, although the place seems to be small, but the rice produced in China in a year is higher than the total rice output in my Datang in a year." ”

Li Su introduced several relatively close countries in the southeast of Datang in one breath, and then pointed to the distance, pointed to an island and said: "This is Java on the South China Sea, which is more suitable for cultivation than Linyi, and the country is rich in gold, copper, iron and other minerals. In addition, as in Java, it is also very suitable for agriculture. ”

After talking about Southeast Asia, Li Su's fingers dragged along the island chain to the southeast, and finally his hand was designated in a very huge yellow area, and then said solemnly: "This is a big island, it can also be said to be a continent, its area is only a little smaller than our Datang, the mineral deposits on it are very rich, especially gold, silver, iron, carboniferous and other resources, most of which are still richer than my Datang, plus this continent is very suitable for grazing, it can be said that it is a rich island!" ”

Li Su's series of introductions, everyone present was stunned, they didn't expect that outside the Tang Dynasty, there were so many rich places, not to mention the rest for the time being, just Linyi, Java and other places are rich in grain, it is enough to make countless people feel excited, after all, most of the countless turmoil in the Central Plains Dynasty was caused by food problems, so the Central Plains Dynasty from the emperor's ministers to the people of Li regarded food as life.

Li Su had already been introduced, and he didn't pay any attention to the stunned expressions of these brothers and sisters, and his fingers left Australia and kept heading east, and finally stopped at the new continent that he had dreamed of.
