Chapter 480: Hundreds of thousands

The mobilization of troops and horses was a matter of great importance, and Li Shimin's somewhat tired expression suddenly perked up.

"I'll see, it's redeployed again?"

Li Shimin wondered if Youzhou City had any other plans, so he hurriedly opened the file and looked at it, there was not much content on it.

"Brother-in-law, all my people go to the barracks outside the city, is there enough space?"

"Don't worry, some of the vanguard soldiers have already been stationed in other locations, so your people used to think that there is a large school field over there, which can be used for military training." Li De explained.

"Okay, I'll get people out of Youzhou City as soon as possible." Li Shimin responded.

The people in Youzhou City quietly evacuated, and after the Li brothers' soldiers and horses left the city, the places left in Youzhou City began to be transformed.

Li De didn't want to waste the existing conditions, and just used it to train elite soldiers.

The first thing to do was to build a school on the original barracks contact, mainly for the soldiers to learn.

In winter, many people have nothing to do, and there will be a good income to help in the vanguard's workshop, and the city of Youzhou is very quiet, and the streets are sparsely populated, but the situation of several workshops is completely different.

After winter, it will soon enter the farming season, there is too much land on this side of Youzhou City, and a large number of people are needed to open up wasteland and plant, and it is indispensable for Youzhou City to have long-term peace and stability.

The craftsmen worked hard to make the plough and various production tools, and recruited many experienced people to train the cattle, but all kinds of products were also being hoarded.

Li De also sent people to find the coal mine, and his plan was to use coal stoves in Youzhou City tomorrow winter, so that they could experience the warmth of the ondol.

"Boss, I boiled lotus seed porridge to dispel the fire."

Luo Luo has caught up with a maid now, running in front of Li De every day, and his careful service makes Li De sometimes embarrassed.

"Okay, let's put this, I'll drink it later."

"Boss, it's so quiet in Youzhou City now, and it's rare to see people during the day." Lolo Dao.

"The population thing is already working, and I believe that someone will come after the winter." Li De speculated.

"What if the land reclamation goes well, but if there are too many people to come, and we don't have enough food?"

Li De also knew that Luo Luo was right, no matter what time food was the most important thing, hoarding reserves was a very important link.

Building a high wall and accumulating grain is also a strategy.

Now that the city wall of Youzhou is there, solving the grain is to ensure completeness.

"Lolo, do you have a good idea?" Li De asked.

"Now we should send people to the south to contact the grain merchants, and send the grain as soon as the snow is slippery." Lolo Dao.

"Is there any good way to attract them?" Li De continued to ask.

"Yes, we don't have a lot of land, and the grain merchants also want to make money by selling grain, and the excess after our harvest can be sold to these merchants in exchange for silver, which can just alleviate the shortage of granaries."

"Well, it's a solution."

Li De had thought about these things a long time ago, but when he heard Luo Luo also think of them, he felt that it was useless to keep Luo Luo by his side.

"Then this matter will be handed over to you to be in charge of Quanqin." Li Dedao.

"Boss, I just came up with an idea." Luo Luo immediately said, it can be seen that she doesn't want to go out to do things, and Li Decai will not retract her words.

Luo Luo was angry when she saw this, she just came up with an idea, and she was appreciated by Li De, who wanted to put herself in, so she had to leave three days later.

Three months later, the grain merchants did not wait, but a large number of displaced people migrated to Youzhou, numbering hundreds of thousands.

Li De, who learned the news, was a little puzzled why so many people suddenly came to Youzhou, and within two days, the people of Red Peony sent the news over.

Li De saw it, his heart was on fire, and the people of Red Peony found that someone was deliberately spreading rumors, these people came under the pretense of other people's hands, and among such a large number of people, there must be people who had been arranged a long time ago.

They are all homeless people, mainly poor people, if they are not handled well, these people are enough to subvert Youzhou City.

Soon, Li De summoned all the lieutenants to discuss the matter.

"Governor, who could be this instigator?" Shi Huaiyi asked.

"It's not possible to know for sure yet, but one thing is for sure, this person should have a relative understanding of the situation in Youzhou City." Li Dedao.

This is also what he cares about the most, the fact that the red peony didn't find it shows that the other party's spies are also very experienced, and it is difficult to answer if it is not possible to deduce who it is according to the news of the red peony.

"Could it be that we have a spy within us?" Shi Huaiyi said in surprise.

"Not necessarily, after all, if you want to know about the situation in Youzhou City, as long as you hide it well, it is very easy to send the news out."

Shi Huaiyi thought about it, it should be that he was too careful.

"Youzhou City can accommodate 50,000 people, and if the houses need to be built, some of the people who came before have not been properly settled." Li Shimin said.

"Hundreds of thousands of people, they must not be put into the city, they can only be assigned to the grange, so many people cannot be all, at least not for a while." Li Shimin continued.

Li De knew that even if he wanted to register and supplement the household registration, it would take many days to complete, not to mention the division of the land, and it would take a lot of time to reclaim the famine.

"We have to prepare in advance, or we will stop the people who are coming and disperse them to the nearby state capital?" Hebida asked.

"Governor, here's a solution." Shi Huaiyi followed.

Li De felt that it was not good to divert the diversion, but he still felt inappropriate when he thought about it, and said: "Do you think that if someone takes the lead, let them go to the various state capitals and they go back, if we refuse them, the consequences will be very serious." ”

"I'm afraid that if it spreads, no one will come to Youzhou in the future, and this trick is really damaging." Ding Qilin said.

Don't look at his young age, but he has a flexible brain and can understand things a little bit.

"Now that Youzhou City is short of people, it will be unable to accept so many people again, which will inevitably cause a lot of problems, and choosing this time to instigate the people may have been calculated a long time ago, that is, it is expected that Youzhou City will not be able to refuse these people." Li Jing said.

"Let's talk about any solutions we have." Li Dedao.

Everyone was pondering.

"If these people want to come, they must be resettled, and food is a big problem." Li Shimin said.

The problem is to the point, but the key is the lack of food.

"The Chamber of Commerce can raise some of it, but it won't be too much, it's okay to accept 10,000 people, but it's definitely not okay to accept hundreds of thousands of people." Wei Li said.

"That's right, these people want to accept but can't accept them all, our Youzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and there is a lack of population, but absorbing the population needs to be gradual, so let's make a plan according to everyone's opinions." Li De said.
