Chapter 818: It's hard to give up
"Governor, our people have made contact with Su Yong, but the result is that he is unwilling to leave because of the responsibility of guarding the city."
"Okay, this is not in a hurry, you need to be patient, now the anti-kings are making trouble everywhere, and the focus will be on gathering the people first."
"Yes."
What the anti-kings did made many people have no way to live, and no matter how many people can be saved, they can't all the people in the world move to Youzhou.
A city in Youzhou has been able to top three or four Chang'an cities, the residential area is expanding again and again, the population of the sixteen states of Youji has broken through to the six million, and the population of the entire sixteen states of Youzhou is as much as 13 million, of which Ningzhou, Liaobei is counted.
Chang'an's population is no more than a million.
The population of a Youzhou force can account for one-half of the Sui State, and it is not an exaggeration to be regarded as the largest force.
Why is the total population so small, there are many factors, the war is the most important battle for Emperor Yang of Sui, and Goryeo can call in a million male soldiers.
As a result, there was not much left to come back.
Not only consumption, but also the birth rate is not high, and having children is very risky.
In a few years, the birth rate of the sixteen states of Youji is much higher than that of other state capitals, because of the construction and development of maternity hospitals, and more importantly, the training of a large number of professional midwifery doctors, and the perennial popularization of knowledge.
With a huge population, there is no ideological confinement, and all of them work to create value, which is the main reason why the development rate is so fast.
What Li De can do is to try to gather the fleeing people and provide them with a job so that they can create their own lives through labor.
Mastering the population is not far from mastering the world.
Li De decided not to let the anti-kings continue like this, because he was worried that they would shift the war to the south, and did not want Hebida and Weili to divide their minds to deal with the troublemakers.
After thinking about it, it was decided to expose a series of things that the anti-kings had done recently.
The newspaper was printed, thinking that the damage caused to the people by the anti-king's attack on the city and county was infinitely magnified, and it took up more space to report.
After it spread, the anti-king people were immediately criticized by various forces, especially Li De who stood up and spoke this time.
"Hmph, what is this Li De going to do, only allow them to recover the city and county, we are doing it to infringe on the people's property and affect the construction of the town and hinder development, you see what the newspaper says is really too much."
The anti-kings are in Luoyang, where would they have thought that the newspapers in Youzhou would target them.
Many people did not speak, many of the things written in the newspapers were facts, and they were used to the actions of the soldiers and bandits, and they could not stop them at that time.
But to write it out is to slap them in the face.
They He Cheng thought that Youzhou's newspaper would have such a big influence, and it was completely a "wedding dress" for Youzhou.
"Let's discuss how to deal with it."
At the end of the newspaper, Li De had already made it very clear that for the sake of the people and stability, you can surrender to Youzhou, and once threatened, 500,000 vanguard soldiers will serve as your solid backing.
The anti-kings never thought that there would be such a manipulation.
Publicizing the surrender of various state capitals to Youzhou, they are very worried that they have many cities and counties that have not been attacked.
Under the pressure of facing them, if there is really a county guard who asks for help from Youzhou, how should they face the vanguards.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I thought I could slow down the plan to occupy the city and county, and bribe the county guard with some benefits to keep them from cooperating with Youzhou." Li Midao.
"That makes sense."
The power of the guardian of a county is very great, as long as they negotiate cooperation, they may not want to join a force. 89 Books
Now the royal family has no time to take care of it, so the county guards of the state capitals are the local masters, and no one does not like power and wealth.
The point raised by Li Mi led them to find another way.
"Well, if that's the case, let's leave it at that." Luo Tiehan Road.
"You promised happily, because you occupy the most cities and counties." Madelai said.
Luo Tiehan didn't argue, he knew that this Ma Delai's territory was in Ningxia, and even if he occupied more cities and counties, the city's economy was very limited.
What they said was nothing more than envy and jealousy, and they could all understand it.
Li Mi was very depressed in his heart, the speed of the Wagang soldiers' capture was very fast, and many of the places occupied by the cities and counties had already divided 100,000 soldiers and horses to deploy various cities and counties.
Now that Li De has come forward, there must be a plan, and a newspaper has stopped their development plan.
He cares more about Li De than Li Yuan, the first major force is not to say, maybe the Li family may not be an opponent.
"Mao Gong, what do you think of this thing that Li De did?"
"Maybe it won't be long before Youzhou's strength will be further expanded, and then the first enemy will be the Tang King Li family." Xu Mao is fair.
"Will Li De really do anything to Li Yuan?" Li Mi asked.
"In terms of the speed of Youzhou's recent expansion, it will soon face the Li family, and it will have to conflict with it when the time comes." Xu Maogong analyzed.
"What can we do?"
"If you want to win, you may be able to unite with the anti-kings to help the Tang King fight against Youzhou together, the advantage of this is that in case of success, you can get it from the dragon's work."
Li Mi was silent, and Xu Maogong naturally knew that this was unwilling.
"If it fails, it can weaken the strength of the Li family, and then it can be developed and integrated against the anti-king forces to compete with one of them, but this time there will be risks."
Li Mi remained silent.
He found that no matter how he chose, he couldn't seem to be the leader, was he really willing to give up the heart of competing for the world?
Xu Maogong didn't say that he was very much in favor of uniting the anti-kings to fight against Youzhou, and when the time came, with the strength of the vanguards, they would all be wiped out, and the world would be peaceful.
If Li De knew that Xu Maogong had such a tendency to self-destruct, he would definitely throw an olive branch, and such a person who could consider the overall situation for the world's major events was available.
Xu Maogong's pursuit is nothing more than glory and wealth, and following Li Mi can't give full play to his talent at all, and he has to endure all kinds of emotions of the leader, which is comparable to a negative emotional receiver.
How can it be smooth in the long run.
When it feels like there's no hope for the future, there are more ideas.
If he wants to defect to Tang Wang or Li De, he can only think that he can't do that, if he puts it into action, he will be treacherous, and his reputation will be ruined, and he can't do anything.
Otherwise, why are there so many people who are not in trouble, can't they see which bowl the benefits are?
None of them are stupid, but they can't help themselves a lot of the time.
If you want to turn the camp, you need an opportunity, once you don't handle it properly, it will be embarrassing, and good things will become bad things.
So Xu Maogong's depression is known only to him.
Li Mi is still thinking, in fact, Xu Maogong said very clearly, that is, if you want to get ahead, you can do it, but if you want to be the emperor, you really have no future.
It's a pity that those who know the times are Junjie, but it's a pity that it's easy to get and it's hard to give up.
