For the next period of time, Guo Peng stayed in Jiaozhou, waiting for his son Guo Qiong to arrive while visiting Jiaozhou.

This legendary land was not until more than a thousand years later that it truly shines because of its reliance on the sea.

It has not received real attention for a long time before this. It has always been the legendary [Wild Land] where exiles will go.

This is a regrettable thing for this land.

For the Wei Empire, which is facing the invasion of small ice rivers, it is very meaningful to develop the Jiaozhou area in advance to make it an important production base.

For this reason, Guo Peng also invested huge sums of money and a large number of troops to carry out security wars here for a long time.

The security war between Yunzhou and Jiaozhou was the longest-lasting war since the pacification of Jiangnan. After the war between Zhang Liao to deal with the Shanyue bandit group in Yangzhou ended, the security war between Yunzhou and Jiaozhou was in progress.

Now that the Yunzhou security war, which Li Gan was responsible for, has ended, the Jiaozhou security war, which Taishi Ci and Xu Huang, has entered its later stages.

The historical problems left over from the Han Dynasty in Jiaozhou, and the descendants of many ancient Yue people have been wiped out by the Wei army.

In the later period of Guo Peng's reign, Xu Huang, the former subordinate of Zhang Liao, gradually took over Zhang Liao's former position, cooperated with Taishi Ci's naval army, and shouldered the important task of public security war in Jiaozhou. Zhang Liao, the former general manager of the Southeast Military Region, was just named.

In order to protect Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao had actually been removed from military power by Guo Peng and began to take on the main responsibility for communicating with the Roman Empire.

As long as the official visitor of the Roman Empire comes, the first thing to do is to go to Jianye City to find Zhang Liao, and go to Luoyang through Zhang Liao's introduction and protection.

Zhang Liao himself was a little confused, thinking that he had started diplomatic work inexplicably, as a general.

But it seems that Zhang Liao's transfer is quite successful now. At least it has been a long time since the court officials have submitted a letter asking Guo Peng to transfer Zhang Liao from the southeast and let him return to the court to work.

Xu Huang, a general of the Mesozoic generation, replaced Zhang Liao's real power, and together with the Navy Commander Taishi Ci, launched a strike against the local separatist forces in Jiaozhou, went deep into the mountains and old forests and other rarely visited places to carry out small wars at the level of plowing and sweeping caves.

Guo Peng's will to develop Jiaozhou is firm and he will not allow any force to interfere in Jiaozhou, which will hinder his overall plan.

With the progress of the public security war in Jiaozhou, the military farming work in Jiaozhou has also achieved considerable victory, especially in the Honghe Plain, that is, the Jiaozhi County area, where the military farming work has begun to show results.

The military farming work at the level of hundreds of thousands of people was fully launched and grain was continuously stored. Jiaozhou already had a considerable amount of grain storage, which was enough to support the 30,000 Wei army to fight in Jiaozhou.

Guo Peng also took the time to meet Taishi Ci and Xu Huang, encouraged the two of them, and praised their battle. Likewise, he went to the military camp to have a meal with the soldiers, and showed off his appearance. He also did what he had done in Yunzhou in Jiaozhou.

What remains is that he had a rare leisure and found a sunny beach along the coast, and took his family to make barbecue and eat seafood on the sunny beach. It was a little fun and he had a full thought of himself.

Guo Peng stayed in Jiaozhou until early April, waiting for his third son Guo Qiong and his huge fleet.

When he saw Guo Qiong, he found that his third son seemed to be quite disappointed.

Unlike the feeling of reluctance to leave before Guo Jun left, he also had a beautiful yearning. Guo Qiong only had reluctance to leave and had no yearning for the future.

When he saw Guo Peng and Cao Lan, his eyes turned red, and Cao Lan was crying and went up to hug her son.

Guo Peng stood aside and sighed.

He gave the children a good elite education, taught them civil and military skills, let them learn cultural knowledge, and military skills, so that they can master the necessary knowledge reserves to survive one by one.

Some people also helped them, gave them advice, fought for them on the battlefield, and with the continuous assistance from their motherland to them for at least three years, it was not difficult for them to gain a foothold outside.

But the only thing that this plan did not consider is their autonomy.

Guo Jun is a strong child. Guo Peng saw it, so he sent him away and asked him to create his own future. In addition to reluctance, he also had a little free and easy life like a vast ocean and sky.

But Guo Qiong is just an idle child.

Guo Peng did not pay much attention to the children other than Guo Jin. This was his serious dereliction of duty as a father, and it was simply a scumbag in the world.

Among his few understandings of other children, Guo Qiong is the one who has no desire to win or lose the most and dislikes to stand out.

Guo Jin and Guo Qiong are relatively close. Through some descriptions of Guo Jin, Guo Peng indirectly understood that his third son has never fought or robbed since childhood. He has a Buddhist style and I don’t know where he developed it.

Perhaps because he never paid attention to other children, he had no idea about their growth process, let alone the journey, so he could not understand Guo Qiong's thoughts.

I don't have the intention to understand every child at all.

Whether it is marriage or the future, such major events in life are all his arbitrary decisions made out of national security and stability and the future of the nation, and he never considered the children's autonomy.

A feudal parents' arbitrary style.

Of course, this is not important to him at all. Young people only look at their own wishes and do not pay attention to the future and interests. They insist on what love they want, but after decades, how many couples will they live together?

So instead of loving the dying thing, it is better to let him act arbitrarily, which will be beneficial to the royal family.

When this policy was announced to the public, as far as he knew, except for Guo Jun, whom he first knew, the other children seemed to have raised objections, saying that they were unwilling to leave Wei to create their own country.

How comfortable is it to live in Luoyang?

How comfortable is it to live in the palace to have a peaceful and peaceful life?

Why have to leave?

Several children conveyed their unwillingness through their mothers, and the one who reacted the most strongly seemed to be Guo Qiong. He mentioned to Cao Lan several times that he was unwilling to leave. He seemed to have contacted Guo Jin in private, but none of them were successful.

Because this is the basic national policy set by Guo Peng and his father.

His son wants to become the forefront of the nation's exploration, guide the entire nation to look outward, go out, and embark on an unconceived path.

As for their own will, it is completely unimportant and can be ignored.

You have to leave, you can't do it if you don't leave.

If you want to blame, you are my sons and I became the emperor again.

Why, can you enjoy the rich and delicious food, but can’t bear it when you go overseas to build a country?

If you want to leave, you will walk, if you don’t want to leave, you will walk!

After Guo Jun went to sea, everything became settled. The children were forced to learn the necessary knowledge to build a country by Guo Peng, and began to cram the imperial education, intending to make up for it - the so-called sharpening of guns in the face of battle, and even if they are not happy, they will be shining.

There are still several years left for you to learn more and you can use it in the future.

Guo Jun has developed well in India, constantly expanding territory and expanding his power, gradually showing Guo's style back then, which made Guo very proud at one time.

But as Guo Qiong and his mother hugged each other and burst into tears, Guo Peng suddenly felt that he seemed too arbitrary.

This strategy is definitely not wrong, and the guiding ideology is definitely not wrong. There is absolutely nothing wrong with going out. This is an absolutely feasible strategy. It is beneficial to the entire country and nation.

Under national policies, individuals' autonomy is actually insignificant.

If the children of the Chinese royal family can decide their own future, and if the children of princes, nobles, high-ranking officials and nobles can decide their own future, there will be fewer stories about marriage to princesses and talented men and beautiful women.

Not only China, but under any regime system around the world, most of the children of this ruling class have to sacrifice freedom.

So Guo Pengda did not take into account whether the children were willing to do this variable from the beginning.

The child dared not resist and accepted it. At most, he would turn red in front of him and cried with his mother in his arms.

Guo Peng sighed for a long time, sighing that as a failed father, he also became more and more determined to send them all out.

I'm sorry for you, I can't be sorry to others anymore. There is one thing I have to be worthy of. If I give up halfway, I'll have really wasted so many years of hard work.

Mr. Guo can't afford to lose this bet on national fortune.

So Guo Peng turned his body on his back and did not watch the scene of the separation between mother and son.

Guo Qiong couldn't change anything with tears after all. The moment his father turned his back, he gave up.

My mother's reluctance cannot change anything. Now, he can only go south to the Thousand Islands country that he has never been to before, but is destined to spend the rest of his life there.

Guo Peng knew the anger in his heart, so before he set off, Guo Peng called him to his favorite sunny beach and met and talked with him alone.

"In so many years, this seems to be the first time that our father and son have been together alone, right? Do you blame me?"

Guo Peng sat on the soft beach, wearing a single dress and blowing the sea breeze. In a trance, he felt like he was returning to his previous life, which was very wonderful.

Guo Qiong didn't feel this way. He knelt together on the beach, sitting upright.

"The father is busy with military and national affairs and has no time to care about his son. This is a normal thing. The son never blames his father."

"I hope you really don't have one, because I am not only the father of you, but also the king and father of more than 80 million people in the entire Wei State. I have limited energy and cannot take into account the overall situation. I hope you can understand me."

Guo Peng sighed.

"Of course my son understands his father."

Guo Qiong's face remained unchanged and his voice was dull.

Guo Peng nodded, wanted to get a distance with his son, so he wanted to talk about some daily topics.

"Arjun, you... are twenty-six this year?"

“Twenty-four.”

"oh."

Guo Peng was silent for a while.
