Chapter seven hundred and eighty fifth soft knife cutting meat
Li Jun's military rations were prepared for the siege of Luoyang, and they were collected through hard work. It was not easy. Li Guo's grain reserves were not abundant!
That's right, it is recognized by the world that Liguo is the strongest country in terms of force and military power.
However, as Tang, Wei, Beiyan, Xia and other countries perished or surrendered, Liguo's territory expanded several times, and the pressure on politics and people's livelihood doubled exponentially, all of which had to be solved by Liguo.
Especially for the crisis created by the four kingdoms of Tang, Wei, Yan, and Xia, which overstretched the people's capabilities, Liguo needed to "pay" the bill. Liguo could not let Liguo watch those who had become his own subjects starve to death.
Bar?!
It's just that in troubled times, everything must be military first. Whatever is missing, military supplies cannot be missing.
Didn’t you look at the Civil and Military Saint Emperor Yang Guang, but only two foreign expeditions forced countless people to rebel?
Today's situation in Liguo is not much better than during Yang Guang's expedition. On the contrary, it is more difficult and miserable. It's just that the troubled times have been coming for a long time. With contrast and bloody suppression, the people's tolerance and understanding are higher. They are used to it. For the time being,
Nothing happened!
The important thing that has supported Liguo's continuous wars and has not collapsed is that it took the first step to occupy the long-stable Jiangdu and Jiangnan. Before the Northern Expedition, it had conquered the vast and sparsely populated south. Now it is completely a matter of transferring grain from the south to the north and demolishing it.
The south wall complements the north wall.
However, there are many mountains and forests in the south, and the land is vast and sparsely populated. The agricultural industry is not developed. The main food is hunting and meat, and there is not much rice.
Don't forget that the Sui Empire, which has the strongest foundation, is still watching.
The backside of Liguo, which is now unparalleled in strength, is also riddled with holes. It is easy for it to collapse in one place or collapse across the board, just like "a dike of thousands of miles collapses in an ant nest."
What about unifying the world?
There are only so many food supplies in the world. Some people eat too much, and some people always eat too little!
If Li Guo conquered the world with force and military power, but collapsed in terms of food and people's livelihood, it would be a big joke. It is estimated that Li Guo will be infamy for thousands of years and become an eternal joke!
In fact, this is also one of the main reasons why Wu Xin and Taiwei Wei Xiaokuan, led by the old Wei army and the old Yan army, conquered the Tang Dynasty and set their sights on the Sui Dynasty. It was not just a military stance. After all, as long as they surrendered, they would be able to calm down sooner or later.
Those soldiers of the old country who were disarmed and returned to their fields were prone to cause chaos. If they were starved and did not rebel, they could only become bandits. If they were left alone, they would be easily incited. If they were hungry again, they would most likely become enemy troops again!
This principle is similar to that of many alien races or beasts who do something they know they cannot do, and who still go to war and invade even though they know they cannot win.
There is no way, resources cannot support so many people or animals, so we can only survive and eliminate the fittest. A group of people will die to relieve the pressure!
It's cruel and ruthless, but also helpless and realistic!
The wealth of the world will all return to Guanxi (Guanzhong).
After the defeat in the Battle of Henan, the Sui Empire stood still, most likely because of waiting for the collapse of the Li Kingdom.
War is not just military or battlefield, it is also a great weapon in economy, people's livelihood, politics, etc.!
"yes!"
Before Changsun Wuji could finish speaking, Wu Xin glanced sharply, causing Changsun Wuji to grit his teeth and reply.
In any case, Luoyang, the eastern capital, is extremely important. Providing rice porridge and food is indeed the best and fastest way to stabilize the country and win over people's hearts.
Of course, for those high-level groups, this method is of little use, and they don’t care about it!
Even though there were many people dying of hunger in the Eastern Capital City, many people still bathed every day, ate well, practiced martial arts with all their strength, and were well-nourished.
"Flower father-in-law..."
Wu Xin nodded and named him again, which made people nervous and concerned, but Wu Xin solemnly ordered:
"Our country runs the army rigorously and does not offend the common people. However, the situation is critical, but we have to find out all the wealthy businessmen and powerful people in the city, and register all the food and materials without a single silver or copper. We will try our best to distribute supplies and save the whole country.
City people."
Speaking of this, Wu Xin paused for a moment, giving everyone time to digest and understand, and then quickly added:
"The people are our top priority. At this time when all lives are in ruins, those who create difficulties for disobedience, regardless of their status...will be punished with treason!"
"yes!"
Everyone present was shocked. Hua Gonggong's beautiful eyes revealed a bloody light and he responded quite excitedly.
This is one of Hua’s favorite things to do!
The faces of the surrendered ministers of the Tang Dynasty changed greatly, but they held back forcefully. No one dared to refute at this time.
For example, the Li Yuan, Chai, Zhou, Zhao, Cui, Yuwen, Li and other famous families and their branch heads and representatives in Dongdu, as well as Baima Temple, Zixia Temple, Zizhu Gang and other famous Dongdu families are known all over the world.
Sect gang...
Dongdu was trapped for several months, and countless people died of hunger, thirst, and exhaustion. However, people like them at the peak level had a profound background and had little influence. The food storage alone could not be carried for several months, let alone several years.
Isn't it enough to prepare several months of military rations for tens of millions of troops to alleviate the starvation situation in Dongdu? That's definitely impossible, it's definitely more than enough.
However, there are not many but not many people who know the amount of Lijun's military ration reserves outside the city. At least, they are basically unknown in Luoyang City. At this time, no one will and dare not disobey Wu Xin.
To put it simply, there are two and a half cancers in the world... Buddhism, aristocratic families, and sect gangs, they count as half.
It has always been the main target of eradication by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty and the Civil and Military Saint Emperors. They all understood it. Even the Civil and Military Saint Emperor Yang Guang launched an expedition for this purpose and caused a raging war. Don't Wu Xin and Ce Tianfu not understand?
After taking Luoyang, the eastern capital, the general trend of Li Guo was basically determined. Unification of the world was inevitable sooner or later, and governance of the world was imminent.
Luoyang, the eastern capital, is just a "test place", just the beginning...
What Wu Xin is doing now is just to give vaccinations, knock on mountains and shake tigers, etc., so that everyone can first have an acceptance process and be mentally prepared.
Of course, Wu Xin is just preparing for a rainy day. Before truly unifying the world, he will not take drastic measures for the time being. He will only adapt to local conditions, adapt to circumstances, cut slowly with a soft knife, and boil frogs in warm water.
Who wants to object? Who dares to object? Then you have an idea, how to solve it?!
The bloody massacre in Li Guo's second mansion is notorious. It simply smeares Li Guo and is even worse than the Demon Sect. Doesn't Wu Xin know that?
I know, but I ignore it and act stupid!
There are many rebels, rebels against the king, bandits, etc., but if they are not killed enough, Wu Xin will add fuel to the fire. Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish!
Everyone can understand why heavy scriptures are used in troubled times!
Anyway, Wu Xin wants to take away the Queen and Eunuch Hua. When the time comes, all the forces want to hate but can't find anyone to target them. Wu Xin really has good intentions!
"Emperor, this is really not a job for humans. If I could concentrate on my cultivation, I would be promoted to the Immortal Realm by now... There are gains and losses!"
Regardless of whether anyone guessed what he was thinking, Wu Xin shook his head tiredly and thought to himself.
I even want to explore the more powerful and vast outside world as soon as possible...
With obvious laziness and escape mentality, what Wu Xin can do is try his best to stabilize the world and lay a solid rear...
I'm still young, it's not time to just wait for death and spend my old age in peace!
Damn it, I am a tired and busy life!
Wu Xin comforted himself, then raised his head and stepped into the palace city, the most important area of Luoyang, the eastern capital!
