Liu Ruyan was also stumped by this question. You know, in this world, population is also a resource. Chu Fan did not kill all the Huns and Gan people he captured, but made them do high-intensity physical labor in Wei State in exchange for a chance to survive.
But this time Chu Fan was planning to exterminate all the people of Japan, which was obviously very unreasonable. You know, no matter which country it is, it will not easily implement such an extermination policy. On the one hand, in this world, population is a resource and labor force that can create considerable wealth for the country.
Another point is that if a country implements such a cruel policy when occupying another country, then this country will be boycotted by many countries on the Shengwu Continent. Moreover, if this country wants to continue to attack other countries, the people of these countries will fight to the death, which will also bring great trouble to the country's conquest.
Liu Ruyan couldn't understand the reasoning for a moment and could only say, "I don't know why His Majesty would do this. Logically speaking, His Majesty has no connection with the Japanese. Why would he hate Japan so much?"
Qiu Ya said, "If you can't figure it out, why not ask His Majesty later? Do you think you are more capable of governing the country than His Majesty? His Majesty can definitely think of the problems you can think of. Stop imagining things here."
Liu Ruyan smiled and replied, "That's all I can do. It's not the first time I've been unable to understand the decisions Your Majesty makes. I'm used to it."
Chu Fan asked at this time: "What are you discussing?"
After Chu Zhenglin left, Chu Fan heard Liu Ruyan and the others talking excitedly and immediately asked. Hearing Chu Fan's question, Liu Ruyan immediately expressed her doubts.
Chu Fan didn't think of how to answer this question at this moment. After all, it was impossible for him to say that in a world outside Ningwai, his country was invaded by the Japanese and 35 million people were killed or injured?
If I say this, let's not talk about whether Liu Ruyan and others will believe that there is a world called Blue Star. Even if they believe that the Japanese have done such heinous things on Blue Star, the Japanese in this world have not done such things. What I am doing is completely taking my anger out on innocent people, which is not a wise move.
Chu Fan tried to explain: "Is the Japanese Kingdom far from our Wei Kingdom?"
Liu Ruyan replied, "Wa is not far from Wei, but with the strait separating them, it's difficult for people from Wei to reach Wa. Natural events like storms can make reaching Wa even more difficult. There's even the possibility that a ship could be capsized by a storm, and the cargo and crew could be lost at sea."
Chu Fan continued after thinking about the idea provided by Liu Ruyan: "We already know that it is very difficult to reach Japan safely. If we encounter a storm at sea, it is possible that the ship and the accompanying personnel will be lost.
Therefore, no matter how powerful the Wei State was, it was actually very difficult to completely rule the Wa State, which had not been weakened too much. After all, it was impossible for the Wei State to station a large number of warriors and soldiers in the Wa State all the time.
However, if Wei withdraws some of its warriors and soldiers, the aristocratic families and sects in Japan will become restless. Even if Japan can finally quell these rebellious forces again, Wei will suffer heavy losses.
This is why, despite its small size and modest strength, no nation has ever completely conquered Wa. Even now, nearly every nation on the Shengwu Continent is seeking wealth on Wa's islands. They may have formed various factions, large and small, but none have ever considered ruling Wa. Otherwise, they wouldn't have acted so recklessly there.
At this time, only Liu Ruyan could keep up with Chu Fan's pace, so most of the answers were given by Liu Ruyan. After listening to Chu Fan's words, Liu Ruyan also had her own ideas.
Liu Ruyan said, "Your Majesty, what you mean is that if you want to completely rule Japan, or if you want to completely occupy Japan's territory, you must first destroy Japan's living forces so that they cannot form any resistance in the future. Only in this way can you maintain long-term and stable control of the situation after occupying Japan."
Chu Fan thought this reason was quite good at this time, so he agreed.
"That's right. When the population of Wa drops to a certain number, Wei will be able to stabilize the situation in Wa with a small number of warriors and soldiers. Then, we can migrate some people from Wei and assimilate the remaining population of Wa. Then, Wa will be able to completely become a part of Wei.
By then, the new residents on the Wa Island will consider themselves citizens of Wei. Even if Wei withdraws most of its troops, as long as there are no major changes, Wa will still accept Wei's rule."
Liu Ruyan had been fooled by Chu Fan and sighed, "I see. Your Majesty's thinking is indeed much longer-term than ours. We only saw a few shortcomings. I didn't expect that governing a country would involve so many concerns. If I were the Empress of the Canglan Empire now, I would never have thought of this reason."
Chu Fan continued, "Besides, the ones who killed the Japanese in Wa were warriors and soldiers from other countries on Shengwu Continent. They had nothing to do with our Wei Kingdom. At most, we didn't 'help' Wa to resist the invasion of other countries on Shengwu Continent. Our Wei Kingdom is very friendly to Wa. How could the Japanese people resent us?"
After Chu Fan finished speaking, Liu Ruyan shuddered. Chu Fan had always acted very relaxed, as if nothing had much to do with him. Many matters were handled by the Royal Affairs Office or by court ministers.
However, Chu Fan had always been very concerned about the situation in Japan. He was very concerned about the situation in Japan, personally formulating various conspiracies and tricks to deal with Japan. If Chu Fan used such thoughts to deal with the Canglan Empire, then the Canglan Empire would probably be no better than Japan.
Fortunately, she has become Chu Fan's woman, and the Canglan Empire and Wei Kingdom are also in a cooperative relationship. Chu Fan should not do such a cruel thing to the Canglan Empire.
