The most arrogant in history

Chapter 918 1 The heart creates man.

Ye Kun asked again:

"So, how big is the area we actually control?"

Song Kui thought for a moment and said, "There is no specific area, because wherever we go, that is Chinese territory. The local natives are completely unable to compete with us. In other words, we can control whatever we want."

With Song Kui's military force and technology, it will be an absolute dimensionality reduction attack on the African continent.

He could just point his finger and say that this entire continent belongs to China, and no one would dare to object.

"very good."

Ye Kun nodded and said slowly: "I plan to send two princes to the West Sea Continent to take charge of the overall situation and further exercise actual control over the West Sea Continent. Song Kui, do you have any suggestions?"

Song Kui thought for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the West Sea Continent already belongs to the Chinese territory. The problem now is that there are too few Han people and development is slow. If you send a prince over there to take charge of the situation and bring more immigrants, that will be enough."

Ye Kun asked again: "I hope that within 20 years, the Huaxia people will be able to completely control the fertile land of the West Sea Continent and exploit its mineral resources. How many people do you think we need to migrate there?"

"This……"

Song Kui smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, the West Sea Continent is too large. Even if we send 10 million immigrants there, it is still sparsely populated. As for immigrants, I think the more the better. Because there will be casualties on the way to immigration; after arriving in the West Sea Continent, many people will die from acclimatization and disease."

Ye Kun nodded and said with a smile: "How about this, you write me a detailed report about the West Sea Continent. Also write a development plan for the West Sea Continent in the future. The more detailed the better. Show it to me in five days."

"My minister obeys."

Song Kui bowed and said goodbye.

Song Poliu did not leave, and asked Ye Kun in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I wonder how you plan to deal with Song Kui and his family?"

"I have already noticed that Song Kui has rebellious intentions. However, considering that he came to his senses in time and has made great contributions in the past, I have decided not to punish him."

Ye Kun sighed: "It was Song Kui who traveled across the ocean and found crops such as rubber trees, corn, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, etc. for us. It was also him who laid the foundation for the Huaxia people in the West Sea Continent.

I am a reasonable person and I also cherish old times. Therefore, I will not punish Song Kui. "

Song Poliu was very grateful and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty is a benevolent ruler throughout the ages. Song Kui will definitely repay you with his death!"

Ye Kun smiled and said, "There is no need for him to die in return. When the princes go to the West Sea Continent, Song Kui can return to his homeland of China and retire peacefully."

Wei Caiqin and the prince's great migration is about to begin.

Song Kui is still needed to lead the way.

Song Poliu went to the West Sea Continent and gained a lot of knowledge. She smiled and said:

"Your Majesty, if our diesel-powered warships do not break down, they will be able to reach the West Sea Continent in half a month. I heard that the West Sea Continent is divided into two large parts. Song Kui is in the South Continent, and there is also a North Continent, right?"

Ye Kun turned the globe and said with a smile: "Of course, it's all marked on the globe."

"But, no one of us has ever sent anyone to the North Continent of the West Sea."

"I was thinking about that, too..."

Ye Kun shook his head: "Due to the limitations of national strength and productivity, our large-scale immigration has reached its limit. If we migrate to the West Sea and North Continent at the same time, our financial resources will not be able to support it and the country will collapse."

The Western Sea and the Northern Continent refer to North America.

Ye Kun couldn't take care of it now.

In the future, immigrants to North America will no longer need to take the Western Sea route, but will instead go through the Bering Strait and the Pacific route.

The route heading north will save a lot of mileage.

There are also Fuso Nagashima and Sakhalin Island, which serve as transit and supply stations.

If large-scale immigration to North America is really implemented, bases and transit stations must be built on Fuso Nagashima and Sakhalin Island first.

Song Poliu was ambitious and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am willing to explore the North Continent of the West Sea for China and establish a base first!"

"No, we can't take care of the Western Sea and Northern Continent right now, so let's wait."

Ye Kun smiled and shook his head: "First, concentrate on replenishing the immigrants in the Oil Peninsula and the Mediterranean area."

There is a serious shortage of people in the Mediterranean region.

There were thousands of small castles in the Eastern and Western Roman Empires.

If we send 500 people to occupy each castle, it would require hundreds of thousands of people!

Song Poliu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will return to transport the immigrants."

There has been no war recently, and most of the warships have been turned into transport ships.

Ye Kun smiled and said, "You should also take a few days off and get yourself together."

A few days later, Song Kui's report came out.

Ye Kun read the report and forwarded the full text to Wei Caiqin for her reference.

Wei Caiqin had already sent her two nephews to lead several thousand vanguard troops and immigrants to the sea.

Wei Ning, the eldest son of Jingzhou at that time, devoted himself to having children after he became unemployed and raised more than 30 sons.

Those sons have now started their own families.

Therefore, the people related to the Wei family once again formed a huge family.

Wei Caiqin's intention was to take away most of the Wei family to assist her two princes in managing the West Sea Continent.

The Wei family members dared not disobey and had to immigrate obediently.

Ye Kun also instructed the arsenal to provide Wei Caiqin's immigrant army with three thousand new muskets, two hundred steel cannons, and other weapons.

Only powerful military force can ensure the obedience of Song Kui's old subordinates.

The construction of the Suez Canal officially began.

Ye Kun took a warship and personally came to the end of the Red Sea Strait to check the construction progress.

Tintin’s suggestion is very good, and the desert sled he designed is also very practical.

Five thousand camels are responsible for transportation here, carrying the yellow sand used to dig the river channels to distant places.

The sand-carrying ship is still under design, so ordinary cargo ships will be used for the time being.

The laborers put the yellow sand into rubber buckets, stepped on the gangplank, and carried them to the cargo ship for unloading.

After the cargo ship is fully loaded, it turns around and returns, unloading the yellow sand deep in the strait.

In the direction of the Mediterranean, the same construction is carried out, advancing southwards.

The commander-in-chief was at the scene and reported to Ye Kun: "Your Majesty, I think this progress is still very fast. Maybe in three years, we can open the canal.

Our technical department is currently building a special sand-carrying ship and a small cart for loading sand. In the future, the small cart will be directly loaded with sand and pushed onto the ship, which will be faster.”

Ye Kun smiled and said, "If you can finish it within three years, that would be even better. Keep working hard, and I'll give you credit when the time comes."

Building the Suez Canal in three years is simply a pipe dream!

It would be great if we could dig the river through in five years.

Then we need to build sand control dams, docks and ports, and logistics operation centers...

The commander-in-chief said: "Your Majesty, we should not build it so wide at the beginning. First, dig the river channel to make it navigable, and then continue to widen the river channel. In this way, transportation and supplies will be much more convenient."

Ye Kun frowned: "Isn't this nonsense? Our canal project design has been finalized. How can we change our mind and do whatever we want?"
