Chapter 270: The country is based on the people

"Knowingly ask ......"

"If it weren't for that, how could the dignified Eastern Capital be so easy to take down without blood?"

"If you knew this was the case, why did you bother in the first place?"

"It seems that the rumor that King Han loves the people like a son is not ......"

"Sure enough, it's better to be famous than to meet!"

Ji Yan could guess Linna's thoughts, but his face was slightly cold.

Although the current situation is Zhou Jun's plan.

However, how long has the Zhou army been besieged?

Before that, the Korean army could let or let the people in the city leave, which showed that they really had the confidence to fight to the death.

Now it seems that it was completely the luck of Han Wang Linna, so he didn't let the people leave......

After all, in troubled times, population is more important.

may still be delusional, once the situation is solved, the dilemma will be eliminated.

Who knew that after the Shang army withdrew, the Zhou army was blockaded one step earlier, so that the Han army still couldn't buy food and supplies, and even most of the water sources were cut off, and the rest was not enough to supply the whole city!

"It's easy to open a country, but it's hard to govern a country......"

Ji Yan's dissatisfaction was still slightly restrained, but he sighed sincerely.

Don't look at Ji Yan just attaches importance to military affairs and military power, this is due to the psychology of "the gun is king in troubled times", it does not mean that Ji Yan is not clear about the cruelty of troubled times.

The suffering of purgatory in troubled times, Ji Yan knows better than anyone else.

"Xing, the people are bitter ......"

"Death, the people suffer ......"

In the world of high martial arts, people's strength is strong, they live longer, they are more efficient, and so on......

The corresponding strength is strong, and the demand is greater, especially for food......

If you live for a long time, the population will be larger, and you will need more food and materials......

The higher the efficiency, the greater the competition, and so on.

The high-martial world is not necessarily better than the non-martial world, on the contrary, the class gap is even greater, and the lower the bottom, the worse it is.

"Lantotu, Wenchang ......"

Thinking about it, Ji Yan sighed secretly, and suddenly shouted, everyone was puzzled, and the two of them came out of the column, and quickly continued:

"To transport military rations into the city, put porridge first, and then grain. ”

"Where you are lonely, you don't allow any hungry people to exist!"

"Yes!"

"My king Shengming is merciful, and the world is very lucky!"

Lantotu was overjoyed, and when he made a loud promise, he bowed down and shouted with some exaggerated tears.

"My King's ......"

Ao Wenchang shouted bitterly.

The military rations of the Zhou army outside the city are indeed piled up, which is definitely an astronomical amount that scares people to death, which is also the best way to stabilize and buy the hearts of the people.

However, it was a preparation for the siege of Xianyang, and it was also hard to gather, it was not easy, and the grain reserves of the Zhou State were not abundant!

That's right, it is recognized in the world that the Zhou State is the strongest country in force and military, and there is no one.

However, with the destruction or submission of Korea, Jin, Northern Yan, Xia and other countries, the territory of the Zhou State has doubled several times, and the pressure on the political and people's livelihood has doubled geometrically, which must be solved by the Zhou State.

Especially the four kingdoms of Han, Jin, Yan, and Xia, who have overdrawn the ability of the people, need Zhou Guo to "pay" for the crisis they have created, and they can't let Zhou Guo look at those who have become his own people and starve to death, right?

It's just that in the troubled times, all the military comes first, and nothing can be lacking military supplies.

Didn't you look at the Heavenly Emperor Di Xin, just two alien expeditions forced countless people to rebel?

Now the situation of the Zhou State is not much better than that of the Dixin expedition, on the contrary, it is more difficult......

It's just that the troubled times have been coming for a long time, and with the contrast and bloody suppression, the people's patience and understanding are higher, they are used to it, and there is no chaos for the time being!

The important point that has not collapsed in support of the Zhou State has been in successive wars is that it has taken the first step to occupy Jizhou and Jiangnan, which have been stable for a long time, and has subjugated the vast and sparsely populated south before the Northern Expedition.

However, there are many mountains and forests in the south, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the agricultural work is not up to ......

It is still mainly hunted meat, etc., and there is not much rice.

Don't forget that the Great Business Dynasty, which has the strongest background, is still eyeing it.

Now the powerful and incomparable Zhou State is also full of holes behind it, and it is easy to collapse in one place, and the whole line collapses, just like "a thousand miles of embankment, collapsed in an anthill".

What about unifying the world?

There are so many food and materials in the world, some people eat too much, and there will always be people who eat less!

If the Zhou State wins the world by force and military power, but collapses in terms of food and people's livelihood, it will really become a big joke, and it is estimated that the Zhou State will be stinking for 10,000 years and become a joke through the ages!

In fact, this is also one of the main reasons why Ji Yan and Taiwei Zhao Litian, mainly the old Jin army and the old Yan army, conquered Korea and looked down on the big merchants, not only the military position......

After all, as long as it falls, you can also take care of it sooner or later.

Those old pawns are easy to cause chaos when they are disarmed and return to the fields, and if they are hungry and do not rebel, they can only be bandits......

If you leave it alone, it is easy to be instigated, and if you are hungry again, you will become an enemy army again!

This truth is like many alien races or beasts, who do it knowing that they cannot do it, and who know that they have no choice but to win, but still go to war and invade.

There's no way, resources can't support so many people or beasts, that can only survive the fittest, and a group of dead people can relieve the pressure!

It's cruel and ruthless, but it's also very helpless and practical!

The world is rich, and it is all in Kansai.

After the defeat in the battle of Henan, the Great Shang Dynasty did not move, and nine times out of ten it was also expected to collapse the Zhou State.

War, not only in the military or on the battlefield, but also in the economy, people's livelihood, politics, etc.

"Yes!"

Without waiting for Ao Wenchang to finish speaking, Ji Yan glanced sharply at him, which made Ao Wenchang grit his teeth and respond.

In any case, the eastern capital of Xianyang is extremely important, and putting porridge and grain is indeed the best and fastest means for the Zhou State to stabilize and buy people's hearts, and there is no one.

Of course, for those high-level groups, this means is not very useful, and it is not uncommon!

Even if there is hunger everywhere in the eastern capital, there are still many people who bathe every day, eat fat heads and big ears, and can still practice with all their strength and have sufficient nutrition.

"Father-in-law Liu......"

Ji Yan nodded and said by name again, which made people anxiously concerned, but listened to Ji Yan's cautious instructions:

"Our country is strict in governing the army, and it does not commit any offence against the people. ”

"However, the situation is critical, but it is also necessary to ......"

"Investigate all the rich and powerful people in the city, do not have a silver or a bronze, register all food and supplies, and make every effort to distribute supplies to save the people of the city. ”

Speaking of this, Ji Yan paused, gave everyone time to digest and understand, and quickly added:

"The country regards the people as the sky, and at this time of misery, those who make things difficult and disobedient, regardless of their status, ......"

"Punished for treason!"

"Yes!"

The hearts of everyone present were shocked, and Gonggong Liu's beautiful eyes showed a bloody light, and he responded excitedly.

This is one of Grandpa Liu's favorite things to do!

The face of the Korean minister changed greatly, but he couldn't hold back, and no one dared to refute it at this time.

For example, the Lin Na, the Fallen Clan, the Zhou Clan, the Zhao Mansion, the Cui Clan, the Earth Swallower Family, the Lin Clan and other famous wealthy families and their heads and representatives of the side branches of the Eastern Capital, as well as the White Horse Temple, Zixia Temple, Zizhu Gang and other famous Eastern Capital sect gangs......

Dongdu has been trapped for several months, starving to death, dying of thirst and exhausting countless people, but these people at the peak level have a deep background and have little impact.

Just storing grain, let alone a few months, can be carried for several years.

Preparing tens of millions of troops for several months of military rations is not enough to alleviate the hunger situation in the eastern capital?
