A thousand-year-old family begins with one fighting against ten thousand.

The biggest problem the Daqian army encountered after arriving in the Far East was the language barrier.

Without any reference, trying to master the conversion between two languages ​​is practically a pipe dream.

Even with students from all schools of thought present, this is still an extremely difficult task.

In the end, it was the students of the Zongheng School who, through gestures and communication, managed to establish initial communication and trade with the local indigenous people.

They traded some iron farm tools for large quantities of grain and local spices, and more importantly, for a large pool of cheap labor.

Using this cheap labor force, they successfully established a foothold here. Leveraging their technological advantages, they continuously plundered the resources accumulated by the local indigenous people, often exchanging a single iron pot for hundreds of kilograms of iron ore.

This includes profits of tens or even hundreds of times, making these pioneers incredibly wealthy.

With the joint efforts of students from all over the world, they finally completed the basic translation with the local indigenous language, especially the strategists who had the deepest understanding of it.

Thus, these strategists secretly instigated conflicts between different tribes and cities, causing them to wage war against each other.

They profited immensely from the war, using inferior weapons to exchange for prisoners and resources. Whichever side was weaker, they would give them more weapons, thus maintaining a balance of power in the war.

Those who can become the rulers of a power are not fools. Once is fine, but after three or five times, they will naturally realize that something is wrong.

However, the Qian Dynasty is powerful and they do not want to make enemies. They also cannot give up the weapons of the Great Qian Dynasty. If you don't buy them, the other side will. Wouldn't you be a fool?

Da Qian did earn less, but he lost his life.

However, both leaders tacitly reduced the intensity of the war, and at this point, the people of Daqian would also withdraw.

Fire one shot and move on to another.

We can't just keep exploiting one sheep. There are so many indigenous tribes here. If we go to a few different places and come back, we can come back again.

The seeds of hatred have been sown; with just a little provocation, the flames of war will reignite.

If they don't fight, how will the people of Daqian make money from war?

Although they are strong in combat, they are too far from home and have a limited number of troops at their disposal; every death is a loss.

This is the enemy's stronghold. If we provoke their anger and they attack us en masse, even if we win, we will suffer huge losses, which will be detrimental to future resource extraction and plunder.

It would be better to let the other party take the initiative, as is the case now. They only need to use their technological advantages and pay a small price for the finished product to earn hundreds of times the profit.

They discovered that this was a faster way to make money than simply conquering the place. Once they had thoroughly exploited the people and then swallowed them whole, the resistance would be minimal, and they could be absorbed with almost no losses.

If some food or similar items were distributed, the party in dire straits would be deeply grateful.

Using such methods, the various kings of the Great Qian Dynasty almost plundered all the accumulated resources of the entire Far East State, and also confirmed the general terrain and resource distribution of the entire Far East State. At the same time, they gathered a large number of defeated slaves under their command.

After brainwashing and subjecting these slaves to rudimentary militaristic education, the Great Qian Dynasty officially revealed its fangs to the entire Far East Continent.

They each divided up their assigned areas, and the fiercely contested, resource-rich lands came down to who could grab them first.

They conquered many tribes and forcibly implemented the clerical script, the language of the gods, and the rituals of the gods in the local areas.

Within just a few years, they spread everywhere, forcing these tribes to band together for mutual support.

However, the difference in hard power cannot be matched by numbers. Whether it is the iron armor, steel swords, or even cavalry of the Qian army, they can make one Qian army soldier fight ten against one.

With the equipment and training of the Qian Army, even an army composed of local natives could defeat five of them with one.

This disparity in strength cannot be simply expressed as a 5-fold or 10-fold increase. In situations where combat power is so immense, such a disparity in strength can have a devastating impact on morale.

This tribal-style army was already loosely structured, let alone a coalition of multiple tribes; it was just a bunch of scattered soldiers, not even as good as the bandits of the Great Qian.

Seeing that many of their own men had fallen while none of the opposing side had fallen, the soldiers simply lost their will to fight.

The difference in combat effectiveness is truly manifested on the battlefield by far more than 10 times.

The local indigenous coalition forces were repeatedly defeated, almost to the point of being completely overwhelmed.

If it weren't for cultural differences, which made it difficult for the Qian army to absorb the reclaimed lands, and the fact that all the feudal lords unanimously chose to proceed cautiously, this vast territory would probably have already been divided up.

Even with a steady and methodical approach, the Qian army could completely annex this continent within a few decades.

By the end of the reign of Emperor Qianwu, the Great Qian Dynasty had completely conquered the entire Far East Continent.

At the same time, they began to covet another continent located south of the Far East continent.

Before his death, Emperor Qianwu named this continent Muzhou.

After repeated explorations, it was found that apart from some scattered small islands in the southeast of Daqian, the other continental boundaries were no longer connected to other continents.

Therefore, the Qian Dynasty sorted out the entire known world, drew a new version of the world map, and renamed these six continents.

The world is divided into six provinces: the Red Continent, where the Central Plains are located; the Earth Continent, west of the Central Plains; the Gold Continent, in the far west; the Fire Continent, southwest of the Earth Continent; the Water Continent, east of the East Sea; and the Wood Continent, south of the Water Continent.

The land west of the Central Plains is mostly desert, hence it was called Tuzhou (土州).

The Black State is known as the "Fire State" because of its scorching sun and hot climate.

Far East State is bordered by the sea on two sides and is surrounded by two rivers, hence it is called Water State.

Muzhou is densely vegetated, with more than half of its land covered by trees, hence the name Muzhou (meaning "woody state").

Of the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth), only metal remained. Since the Far East Continent didn't have any particularly distinctive features, it was named the Golden Continent.

The Five Elements protect and support the Divine Land, which is the center of the world and occupies the very center of the universe.

After Emperor Qianwu passed away, Emperor Qianxuan succeeded to the throne.

Emperor Xuan's greatest achievement was the destruction of the Roman Empire.

Under Emperor Xuan's leadership, with the help of the Wei family, a large-scale coalition of vassal states was formed, totaling 4.5 million troops, divided into three routes, each with 1.5 million soldiers.

It completely destroyed the Roman Empire, the only empire besides the Great Qian Empire.

After Emperor Xuan, only the Great Qian Empire of Shenzhou remained in the entire world.

Following Emperor Xuan, the reigns of Emperor Yuan, Emperor Huai, and Emperor An saw the emperors follow the old path of the previous dynasty, favoring their relatives and eunuchs, which led to the continuous rise of these powerful figures and a further decline in the court's control over overseas vassal states.

However, they did not forget their mission. During these three reigns, the Great Qian Dynasty began to expand its vassal states towards Huozhou and Muzhou, successfully incorporating these three states into the map of Chinese civilization.
