"And one more thing."

After talking about China's navy, the silver-haired old man thought for a moment, picked up the teapot and poured tea for the other party, and then said leisurely, "China's population is too large."

Shan Yuan was stunned and didn't understand why the other party said that.

China has always had a large population, right?

This is a fact in itself!

The silver-haired old man glanced at the other person and then continued.

"Shan Yuanjun, do you know how many people there are in China now?"

Shan Yuan shook his head, but the old man said seriously, "Seven hundred million!"

These two words made Shanyuan take a breath of cold air.

"Yes, in recent years, they have been increasing at a rate of more than 10 million to 20 million per year. Now they have reached this terrifying point. If they continue to grow..."

"And this is data unilaterally announced by China. There may be more hidden populations."

"That's almost ten times the size of the Empire."

"Such a large number of people are powerful beings in the entire world. You and I have both experienced wars, and we know that population resources are an important factor that determines the outcome of a war. Otherwise, how could that furry bear persist until now?"

Shan Yuan thought that at the end of the war, their human resources would be exhausted and they would have no choice but to send the children who had not grown up.

And Germany, the same thing.

On the other hand, Mao Xiong and Huaxia, with their sufficient population, fought successively and defeated their opponents.

"The other side's continued population growth is not a good thing for the empire."

"You know, when the land cannot meet the pressure of the population, they will need more land."

"And if you want to change internal conflicts, you can only focus on the outside."

"So, we have to find ways to limit each other's population growth."

The silver-haired old man's eyes were full of wisdom.

Of course, he also understood that overpopulation was not a good thing.

If China continues to grow at its current population growth rate, its population will increase to a terrifying two billion in less than fifty years.

This number will bring very heavy survival pressure and will put China into a heavy burden.

Just filling these people's bellies is enough to give them a headache.

But this is just wishful thinking on his part.

China cannot fail to see the advantages and disadvantages brought about by population explosion. It is nothing more than a matter of trade-offs.

What's more, humans are intelligent creatures.

When a family faces survival pressure, will it still choose to have children?

No, they will evaluate the current facts and take corresponding measures to avoid the appearance of children.

But even so, I believe that in the next ten years, if China does not take control measures, the population will still increase rapidly.

In particular, the opponent's base is too large.

So, they need to do something to prevent the worst from happening.

Shan Yuan was silent when he heard this.

Facing China's huge population base, not only they have a headache, but also the Alliance in the north and the United States across the ocean, facing a sea of ​​warriors, all have to scratch their heads and think carefully.

"Your Excellency, if you want to limit the population growth of the other side, the most important thing is to restrict food, and the second is to work hard on medical construction."

"As long as there is not enough food, the neonatal mortality rate will increase. The population will naturally increase slowly!"

After thinking for a while, Shanyuan finally expressed his opinion.

"But, given our current situation, it is difficult to do it."

"Medical facilities can affect it. But food!"

"Moreover, the other party has begun to promote high-yielding corn. Large areas of corn are grown in the north, which not only provides food, but is also used for export in exchange for supplies."

"More importantly, the other party's breeding base is inland. Let alone us, even the United States behind it cannot effectively destroy it."

"The momentum has been established."

The silver-haired old man nodded, "We know this!"

"However, corn is a coarse grain after all, and its planting range is limited!"

"Just maintain the current situation, but other changes must not occur!"

Shan Yuan was surprised, and then said seriously, "Could it be that China has other actions?"

The silver-haired old man nodded, "Due to the emergence of high-yield corn, the Chinese agricultural department secretly implemented a basket of support plans. In this, our allies got some information."

"This is very bad for us!"

Shan Yuan took a breath of cold air, "Your Excellency, we must not allow another high-yielding crop to appear in China. In this case, the rise of China will be the biggest threat to the empire."

"Don't worry, not only we understand this matter, but our allies also understand it!"

"The emergence of hybrid corn has attracted the attention of the allies, and they have lost the best opportunity to deal with the furry bears. Of course, they will not let China rise."

"Our allies have already started to implement it, and I believe it will be effective soon."

"And what we need to do is."

The silver-haired old man showed a ferocious look in his eyes, "Let the Chinese people realize the pressure caused by overpopulation."

"Let them control the population themselves."

Hearing this, Shanyuan nodded sharply, "Your Excellency, I understand."

"I will contact experts and scholars to declare the pressure that overpopulation puts on society, the pressure on land, and the obstacles to the progress of civilization..."

"I believe those smart people, those friendly people, will do it."

The silver-haired old man smiled and nodded. China has no shortage of smart people.

But smart people are not necessarily good people.

"In that case, I leave this matter to you."

"Ha Yi! In order to make the empire strong, Shanyuan will do whatever he wants to do."

After saying that, Shanyuan stood up and left the palace under the leadership of the waiters.

Ah~~~

Kill me~~~

Suddenly, a voice came from inside the wall, and Shan Yuan couldn't help but stop.

After confirming the source of the sound, Shan Yuan's face suddenly turned pale.

"Your Majesty~~~"

On the other side, the silver-haired old man came to a palace, knelt down and sat aside, looking at the figure under the imperial doctor.

The emaciated man lying on the bed with a withered face. Who would have thought that the once high-ranking God of the River Nation, the man who once led the empire to glory, the man who could maintain the dignity of the empire even if he failed, would actually look like this.

His hair fell out, his eye sockets were sunken, his eyes were unfocused, and his body was as shriveled as a ghost.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Roaring, ferocious, and terrifying.

It wasn't until the imperial doctor finished his work that the man calmed down his voice, and his heavy breathing gradually became steady.

The nasolabial folds on the silver-haired old man's face were all pinched together, and his eyes were full of pain.

The once god is now like a dying old dog.

Unthinkable and unacceptable.

"Yizheng, how is your majesty?"

Stopping the doctor who was leaving, the old man asked in a low voice.

The doctor shook his head and motioned to go out.

When the two came outside the store, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Excellency! Your Highness's body!"

The doctor insisted and shook his head, making the old man's heart sink to the lowest point.

"Your Majesty has an old illness. If you follow the previous treatment, there will be no problem."

"But during the last epidemic, the sustained high temperature not only broke down His Majesty's immune system, but also caused various diseases."

"Even if the high temperature is controlled in the end, it's too late!"

"Now, the cancer in His Majesty's body is getting worse."

"It used to be once a week, and now it's once every two days. If it continues like this, I guess..."
To be continued...
