In fact, when things developed to this point, even the other surrounding earls whose territories were far away from Lanling City already knew what was happening in Lanling City. However, when they learned the news, of course
Some people are excited, but no one really dares to send troops to conquer Li Ba Dao. The reason is very simple. The people who are qualified to conquer Li Ba Dao are not other earls. Logically speaking, it should be the Marquis above Li Ba Dao.
But coincidentally, there is no marquis in Li Badao's territory, because the original marquis is now the Duke of Hanshan. After occupying his territory, the Duke of Hanshan did not enfeoff a marquis. First of all, there is no redundancy.
The city was given to the Marquis, and secondly because Duke Hanshan naturally knew that the more nobles he had, the more difficult it would be to manage. It was precisely because of this that under the current situation, Li Badao did not encounter any problems despite his very rough approach.
Any resistance, of course, the resistance mentioned here is naturally the resistance given to him by his superiors.
But now the other earls around think that Li Ba Dao is too crazy now. No one thinks that what he is doing is correct. Even people who know what he is doing think that Li Ba Dao is now crazy.
He has gone completely crazy, and what he is doing is suicidal. After all, one thing that has to be admitted is that although Li Badao has shown a very powerful combat power, he has also shown that he has no control over the viscounts in the towns under him.
The absolute intimidation power of Li Ba Dao is something that other counts do not have, but what Li Ba Dao did next is difficult for many people to accept. They are actually afraid of Li Ba Dao, because they are now completely
They can't understand what Li Ba Dao is doing. Sometimes if people can't understand a person, they often think that person is a fool. Of course, this is only the initial stage. If it is a very powerful person who makes them unable to understand,
If they understand, then they will naturally not simply think that the other person is a fool, but will just continue to figure out the other person's mind.
But it is obvious that as long as these people are studying Li Ba Dao, they simply cannot understand what Li Ba Dao is doing. Now he is digging his own grave by doing so. Originally, according to what he did before, even if it is not possible
It is said that he has reached the point where he can become a marquis, but with his ability to control the surrounding towns, it will definitely not be a problem for him to become the most capable earl under the Duke of Hanshan. Such an idea is definitely achievable.
Because the strength shown by Li Badao now is strong enough. You know, everyone knows that Lanling City has changed hands, and even the name of the city has been changed. Even they know that Duke Hanshan is
It is impossible not to know, but it is a pity that at this time, Duke Hanshan has never sent troops to attack Li Badao. Even those who have been monitoring Duke Hanshan have noticed that Hanshan Function and Jufei have not sent troops to attack Li Badao, and even
He didn't even send anyone to question him, which made many people have many different thoughts.
In their view, this is actually Duke Hanshan's connivance towards Li Ba Dao. After all, if Li Ba Dao was just a simple person seizing power, he might not be worthy of so many people's attention. At most, people would only want to see what Duke Hanshan did in the end.
Just deal with him, but just when people learned that Li Ba Dao had taken Lanling City into their own hands, before they could wait for Duke Hanshan to react, they heard the news of Li Ba Dao's attack on Wuhai Town, and
The day after this news came, I heard that Li Badao had successfully defeated the Xuanshi army in Wuhai Town and razed the entire Wuhai Town to the ground. Such an action has been well demonstrated.
Given Li Ba Dao's powerful strength, it is understandable that Duke Hanshan did not want to attack Li Ba Dao's Lanling City under such circumstances. After all, Duke Hanshan only wanted his own territory.
It is stable, and as long as the subordinates in his territory are obedient enough, it is naturally impossible for him to send troops to conquer it at the beginning.
But what Li Ba Dao is doing now is completely incomprehensible. If Li Ba Dao simply robbed Lanling City and then shocked the surrounding towns, there is actually nothing wrong with it.
Yes, after all, he is a usurper. Although there is no so-called treason in it, there will still be a very important problem after all, that is, the aristocratic power in the towns under his command may be dissatisfied with Li Ba Dao. But now Li
Ba Dao has also solved this problem very well. It can even be said that it has solved this problem perfectly. It may even be difficult to decide for a while whether to choose the most powerful earl under Duke Hanshan, but if it is to
If the Duke of Hanshan finds an earl who can best control the power of his town, then Li Badao will definitely do his part now. Under such circumstances, it is natural that Li Badao will use his extremely powerful combat power to give this point to
It was shown, so people thought that what Li Ba Dao did after that was crazy.
You must know that in such a situation, even some people who think they have seen it thoroughly think that what Li Badao is doing now is completely seeking death. He does not even need to wait for others to attack him, he just does it.
Those things are likely to make all the noble forces in the towns that just surrendered to him start to resist him again, and he even brings the forces of those towns together. This is not asking for death. But what is it?
What happened next shocked even more people, because Li Ba Dao actually started to build a city, and Lanling City started to build around him. The other earls did not realize what Li Ba Dao's move was for.
, they also did not understand the role of building a city and how to build a city. Li Badao was quite clear about these things, because he had built cities more than once, and in the end those cities became his territory.
He not only has a way to build a solid city, but also has a way to stabilize it.
It is precisely because of the current situation that Li Ba Dao's actions have become completely incomprehensible to the other earls around him. However, what Li Ba Dao did was quite rigorous. He also
It is clear that the nobles in the towns under him still have little interest in following him in building cities, so the method Li Badao currently uses is still to build cities compulsorily. In fact, it is precisely because of this that the other earls are now
Everyone thought that Li Badao was looking for death now. He first destroyed those towns, then plundered all the resources in those towns, but then used those resources to build cities for those viscounts. It seemed that in the end, they all
Resources have been spent on them, but the first thing is how to calm down the anger of the viscounts, which is the most difficult. The second thing is to gather these people together. What if they suddenly start to resist?
Li Badao had to face hundreds of thousands of Xuanshi troops at the same time. It was impossible to win such a battle.
The third point is actually very important, that is, even though Li Badao has plundered all the resources in the surrounding towns, he still has very few resources after all, and building a city is not only a taboo,
At the same time, it is also a huge consumption. If Li Badao wants to build a city now, even if he invests all his resources, whether he can build a city is still a question. At this time, it is basically equal to Li Badao.
Ba Dao is constantly wasting the resources he has obtained, but in the end things will definitely not be accomplished. These are the issues that everyone cares about. There are also many people who just want to wait and see Li Ba Dao unable to build the city because of exhaustion of resources.
What happened next is that all the urban forces are now forcibly brought together by Li Ba Dao. Under such circumstances, even Li Ba Dao cannot always suppress the noble forces under him. If things can be done now
If it develops smoothly, it will naturally be a very satisfying situation.
But if more people have been complaining because of Li Ba Dao's actions, and even if they don't get any benefits in the end, then it is definitely impossible for them to continue to follow Li Ba Dao like this. In fact, building a
The power and resources needed by the town are not too much. If these people really get no benefit from following Li Ba Dao in the end, the worst they can do is kill Li Ba Dao, and by the way, they can also try to snatch the title of earl, and
Even if it fails, they can definitely return to their own territory and develop again. These situations are naturally not a big problem in the eyes of these people. It is precisely because of this that these talents can now be more unscrupulous.
Follow Li Badao to do things. In fact, among the problems that the previous earls thought about, the first few problems were not too big. Only the last problem involving resources was the biggest problem. After all, if it could be transformed from a town
If it becomes a city, then of course these viscounts who have been guarding the town would prefer to change it.
After all, the city is naturally something that many people yearn for, but it has always been a taboo, because only after reaching the title of earl can you truly start to own your own city, but Duke Hanshan has many viscounts.
There are only a dozen earls, and there are only a dozen cities. Under such circumstances, people without cities naturally always look at the big nobles living in the cities with envy, but there is no way to change this, because
Everyone knows that it is taboo for people below the earl to build a city, and they also know that the resources required to build a city are too great, so many people are naturally daunted, but now the matter raised by Li Badao really makes many people afraid.
Everyone has become extremely shocked. They don't know what Li Ba Dao's ultimate goal is. They even think that Li Ba Dao is just playing, or more accurately, he is playing with fire and burning himself. Under such circumstances, of course it is not possible.
They are optimistic about what Li Ba Dao has done, but under such circumstances, the nobles in the towns are definitely not willing to accept such a situation. They are actually very anxious. Although it seems to be a sure-profit business,
But they are actually very dangerous.
It is precisely because of this that Li Badao actually faces a lot of resistance now, but Li Badao's solution to this resistance is also very simple and crude, that is, to build eleven cities at the same time. Such a generous move shocked everyone.
Even the nobles in the towns who were very opposed to Li Ba Dao at first are now convinced by Li Ba Dao's approach. No matter whether Li Ba Dao will succeed in the future, at least the things Li Ba Dao has done now are true.
Let these people see his ambition and firm ideas. Under such circumstances, they must cooperate with Li Ba Dao a little, but now it is definitely a reasonable thing to let them cooperate with Li Ba Dao. After all,
They have now concluded that Li Ba Dao needs to do this, not to harm them. This is a normal process. Under such circumstances, the reason why Li Ba Dao dares to do this and the reason why he is able to do this is
, also because Li Badao has begun to invest a lot of resources, and these resources are not even enough.
Li Badao is not in a hurry. He has never been stingy about investing his resources. He has done this many times, and now he has more and more resources at his disposal, which proves that he is really
He clearly understands what is the most correct thing to do now, and his approach is completely correct. Although other earls and so-called nobles do not understand why Li Ba Dao does this, Li Ba Dao does this.
The purpose is not to make them understand, but to conquer them better. At this time, Li Badao is actually quite courageous. He is currently building the city, constantly consuming his own resources, and even
Even his subordinates don't know where his resources come from, but Li Badao is not in a hurry now. Although his resources are constantly decreasing, he already has better ways to increase his resources.
Resources. Of course, Li Ba Dao has always done this kind of thing in an extremely simple and crude way, and this time Li Ba Dao certainly had the same idea.
When everything started to go on track, Li Badao began to regroup his army of Xuanshi. These Xuanshi were all Xuanshi from Lanling City. By now, they were completely determined to follow him. And this time when
They were somewhat surprised when they learned that they were going to fight with Li Ba Dao, because there were no enemies around Lanling City. But the goal given by Li Ba Dao made them all dumbfounded. (To be continued)
