After hearing these words, Yi Yun couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. This was something he never expected.
He originally thought that the crown prince would ask for some troops to help Xiliang County defend Tuobayu, but he never expected that he would actually ask for someone, and anyone could be anyone, which was a bit outrageous.
In his opinion, population is often a burden. It makes no sense that the prince does not want an army but so many ordinary people.
He couldn't help but remind: "Your Majesty, this time is different from the past. Tuobayu knows that you are my sole heir to Beiliang. It is very likely that he will go to pieces and catch you even if he suffers huge losses!"
The Crown Prince is the only heir to Beiliang. Once he falls into the hands of the barbarians from the Northern Territory, the consequences will be disastrous.
Not to mention that Xiliang will be destroyed, even Beiliang will be led by the nose.
"No problem!"
Lin Yi waved his hand and said without saying anything. He chuckled and said, "It's just a little Tuoba Yu. I don't need my father to take action. I just need enough people to run Xiliang County!"
One hundred thousand troops from Beiliang arrived at Xiliang County. Lin Yi had known about this for a long time. After all, the net was now fully penetrated, so this matter could not be hidden from his eyes and ears.
To be honest, he was still very touched. This was a father's care.
But now in Dayu County, unless the barbarians from the Northern Territory come out in full force, they absolutely cannot do much, so the requirements for military strength are not too high.
On the contrary, Beiliang is now under great pressure. If the troops are put on his side, it will lead to instability in Beiliang, so he did not choose to ask for the army. He only needs to relocate some of the population.
That’s right, it’s population!
Xiliang County has been abandoned for so many years, and the population itself is very declining. In addition, he has killed tens of thousands of people before, so the population is still a bit too small.
Even though we had previously acquired a lot of Yellow Turbans to replenish the population of Xiliang County, it was still a drop in the bucket.
At first, he didn't feel that the population was small, but when he recruited laborers to build the city, he discovered this problem.
After redeploying the labor force, a vacuum phenomenon has even appeared in many places. This is undoubtedly a problem of insufficient population. If we launch some more projects, Xiliang County will become a ghost town.
In Lin Yi's opinion, this is a big problem.
This problem only occurs in Xiliang County. Once you take over Tuobayu's territory, the population problem will become more serious, so this problem must be solved.
Migrate the population!
This is Lin Yi's solution, to bring in the population from elsewhere to supplement the population shortage in Xiliang County.
The biggest dividends in the world are generally brought by population. After all, there is supply only when there is demand, and population is extremely important. I will have a lot of plans in the future, and they all require people.
Although it has its own system, it is enough to have the Xiliang Iron Cavalry in the military aspect, but in terms of development, it needs the population to promote it in order to achieve this goal faster.
The greater the population, the greater the dividends.
What's more important is that Lin Yi has a system of convincing people with virtue. The people who migrate here are all aiming to convince others with virtue, so they can definitely be exploited.
The rewards generated by the system, as long as you have a little better luck, will definitely be a huge profit.
Because of this, Lin Yi decided to ask the old man to help immigrate some people. This was a simple matter.
"Little Tuobayu?"
After hearing these words, Yi Yun and Bai Zizai couldn't help but dumbfounded. Tuobayu was the powerful Condor General in the north, and was actually a small figure in the eyes of the Crown Prince.
This simply makes no sense.
But since the prince is so confident, the two of them can't say much, and this plan is completely acceptable to Beiliang.
Because the food pressure in Beiliang is not small, the prince moved part of the population into Xiliang, which is good news for Beiliang. This business can be done. It not only alleviates the food pressure, but also obtains good things like cement.
Earn money with blood!
Yi Yun said excitedly: "In that case, I will reply to the prince, and you and your son will discuss the rest among yourselves!"
"OK!"
Lin Yi nodded, but he didn't have any objection.
But to be honest, he didn't plan to give the old man finished cement directly. After all, the road from Xiliang County to Beiliang was full of mountain roads, and the transportation cost was really too high.
He is planning to build a new cement factory in Beiliang. The formula will still be in his hands at that time. As the prince of Beiliang, with Luo Wang taking care of him, he does not have to worry about leaks.
As for why I didn’t choose to hand over the formula, it’s because this formula is really too important.
Although the old man has only one son and will not trick his own formula, but not all of his people are reliable. If a white-eyed wolf appears, it will be troublesome.
So the best choice is to be reliable in your own hands!
If it is taken by the Daning Dynasty or the barbarians, it will not be a good thing for you. Cement may be just a building material for others, but it is different for the enemy. It is a strategic material.
Once the enemy has mastered the cement, if they block several passes with cement, it will be a big trouble for them to attack in the future.
Even if you have explosives, you will suffer heavy losses in the face of such condescending suppression. Explosives also have an attack range, and your trebuchet will be shot into a hedgehog before it even gets close.
After Yi Yun completed a task, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, it is said that Tuoba Yu is coming with great force this time. Our Beiliang Guards have more than a thousand people in Xiliang County, and they can be deployed by Your Majesty at any time."
!”
"Haha, thank you Commander Yi, I won't be polite if necessary!"
Lin Yi smiled, but did not refuse.
As for Bai Zizai, he didn't say much, just threw a token in front of Lin Yi, then turned and left.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Wang Yue said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is the Shura Order. With it, you can mobilize the Shura Army. It seems that Mr. Bai has recognized your Majesty!"
This Shura Token is the exclusive token of the leader of the Shura Army. Now that Bai Zizai gave it to the Crown Prince, he obviously recognized the Crown Prince's status.
"Haha, this prince is the only heir to Beiliang! If the old man doesn't recognize my words, who can he recognize?" Lin Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said quietly.
We are the prince of Beiliang. Whether he recognizes that we are princes or not is understandable.
Now that Bai Zizai left so easily, he might have long suspected that he was secretly hiding his strength, otherwise he would never be so relieved.
After all, it is a gateway to Beiliang. As Shura General, how can he give in easily? It can only be said that he has already noticed it.
