Chapter 505: Pacify

'The pyramid is also a very stable structure. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info', Li Chen's pen gestured to this half-human-tall, wooden, hollow pyramid model inside.

'Egypt will also happen to the ground ox to turn over, but the golden tower is as stable as Mount Tai, for thousands of years, no matter how big the ground ox is, it cannot shake a single cent. Why? ’

I think you've all seen it, the quadrangular shape, it's very stable. No matter how the chassis shakes, or pushes from above. Li Chen pushed the hollow pyramid and didn't move.

But what if it's the other way around? Li Chen motioned to a few guards, lifted the pyramid, held it up, and turned it upside down, "I don't need to say it, you also understand that it can't stand at all." ’

'This is true of a building structure, let alone a national society. Li Chen moved the pyramid out today, not only to promote that the West also has a brilliant civilization, which is the truth. This is an inverted pyramid structure, which was the case at the end of the Ming Dynasty, even if there are no natural disasters, it will not last for a few more years, and there will be a large number of civil uprisings.

Why promote yeoman farming. Smallholder farmers are stable. Only when small farmers are stable can the country be stable. First, it would be better for countries to move towards a pyramid structure. There are large and stable small farmers. Li Chen paused and gestured to the bottom. 'They're this. ’

It seems to be the most inconspicuous, but it is the most important thing for the country. Li Chen motioned for the guards to put the pyramid in the right place, and continued, "For a long time, the Qin and Han dynasties had a large number of peasants, and the country was stable. The Qin State was founded by farming and warfare, and the Han Dynasty was not bad. Our dynasty is even more to stabilize the world with the government and military system. ’

The gradual decay of the government soldier system also symbolizes the decline of our dynasty, and Emperor Xuanzong replaced the government soldiers with expanded cavalry, but he could not fight. He motioned to the guards to turn the pyramid in one direction, revealing the other side, which was divided by five lines, and five colors were added to divide the pyramid into five levels

'Look, the top is royal, the least, and the least. The next layer is the taxi, and the peasants are at the bottom, which are two very important parts, the middle industry and business, which can be expanded, but the bottom cannot be less in any case. The top can't be bigger, otherwise it's upside down. ’

Won't the expansion of the middle part affect the country and society? Li Chen compared his hands, two guards moved the pyramid slightly, and one of the waiters took a big rugby ball.

Li Chen didn't mean to advocate rugby, it was just a model. Rugby, although this kind of sport also requires technical content, is more brutal and more suitable for the army, but it hurts too much.

Playing rugby, many of them have been replaced by Progeria dementia. Rugby, boxing and other sports, there are often them. But strangely, other sports are less so. Later, someone studied it, because their brains were broken, so it wasn't Progeria Alzheimer's disease.

It's a very simple test, you put an egg in a clear glass bottle filled with water, and shake it up and down vigorously. You see if the egg will break, very hard, very often...

It's almost like a rugby, although you wear a helmet, but your brain is hit so often that it's like an egg, and you don't have time to absorb the impact. The human brain doesn't seem to be good, but it still suffers from the loss, which makes those athletes have a lot of memory loss and other symptoms.

Li Chen didn't want to get the army himself, and such a person appeared. Not only memory loss, but also many symptoms, such as irritability. So she didn't want to advocate rugby at all, today it's just a metaphor. He put a few big football balls on it.

If the pyramid becomes like this, it will be very stable, and I have advocated commerce and commerce, and the merchants and workers have played a role. Although it can't stand up, it's large in the middle, but it's also a stable structure. ’

This group of people is not only a businessman, but also a worker. I define this class and teach it to be the middle class. In fact, some of them are small yeoman farmers, and they can also be regarded as middle class. If you think of the people at both ends, the end is regarded as those slaves, proletarians. Then the middle class can be small merchants, workers, and some peasants. ’

'A person who has property does not have to have a land, a house, or a skill, and is also considered a property. Those who have no permanent property have no perseverance, and a strong middle class is the strength of the stability of all countries. They are the most stable, and may not seek to be motivated, but they are the most supportive of the imperial court, and the most disgusted with those criminals and traitors. ’

If you are in power in the future, you should also pay attention to the lower classes, the propertied and the proletarian, and those who have great wealth. Find out about the situation of the people under your rule. If you can't pay attention to this, it is good to pay attention to the proletarians and those who have a lot of wealth. ’

'Once, there was a great Qin state in the west. It was once very strong, and it can also be regarded as the Great Qin of the West. The country is vast and the people are numerous. After years of fighting and defeating many former Qiangdi, the Great Qin people added their might to many places. ’

They are mainly homesteaders, which is a bit like the government soldier system. Their soldiers, loyal and strong. But then it also collapsed, and although they conquered many countries and conquered many places, they failed to make good use of those places. In the end, he lost the yeoman farmers on which he depended, and instead employed many aliens who had no loyalty to the country and no shame. In the end, even the emperor inserted a bid to sell his head. ’

'The barbarians, who could not get enough money, killed the emperor and hung his head on the tip of a spear, and whoever could pay the price, they sold the throne to whomever they could. ’

The experience of the Romans can be very good for the Tang Dynasty to learn from. That's all for today. Everyone can get a history of the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and go back to read it. ’

From the pyramids to the Romans, Li Chen ended today's lecture. After the spring ploughing, he gave lessons to these people again, as long as he had time. He used to teach those children, but now he teaches Hanlin scholars and prime ministers, and he wants to instill his ideas in this country, and he also wants to provide more stimulation, hoping to change the cycle of chaos in China.

After the class, he was still thinking about what he wanted, and he had already sent people to supervise the situation of the envoys in various places. As mentioned earlier, if you want to send troops, you have to pay money. Zhou Pan picked a good time, but there was no way to enter the army in the middle of winter. Not even after the beginning of spring.

Because it is necessary for spring ploughing and manpower. Therefore, everything that transports money and food will have to wait until March. March transport, April dispatch is considered fast. After half a year, it's winter again. However, now Li Chen is already urging the troops. Because he's already sent the money.

How to send it? Very simple. Fly Money. There are banks in various localities, and the local governments have set up banks using the money they originally used to lend money, and the profits of the banks in various localities still belong to the localities, and only centralized management can be achieved. In this way, it is easy to achieve the goal of connecting the world.

The imperial court only needs to allocate funds, and all localities will make envoys and go to the bank to get money. As for whether the bank has enough money, it is a problem for the bank. The court is allocating the money. Since the money has gone down, send troops to me, and it will not work.

Just as Li Chen was thinking, an urgent report came from outside, 'What, tens of thousands of people gathered to make trouble? Li Chen listened to the report of this Hanlin bachelor and said that something big happened outside, and tens of thousands of people gathered to make trouble.

Last year, those Li Chen expected to eliminate the old army, and secretly rumored that Li Chen planned to completely eliminate them, and some people were brewing trouble. was secretly reprimanded by Li Chen, collected evidence, and asked Chang'an and Wannian County to arrest these people.

Together with his family, he was exiled to Longxi and went there to pioneer. I thought that the snake could not be headless, but I didn't expect that these people were really energetic, and they were actually in Chang'an, and they could be connected under his nose.

'How's it going?' Li Chen asked in a deep voice, "Back to the saint." They divided their troops into three routes, blocking the eastern and western cities respectively, as well as the Mingde Gate, and it is said that tens of thousands of people participated in it, along with their families. ’

'Saint. At this time, a guard ran to report that there were signs of gathering in these three places.

The east and west cities of Chang'an are one of the most lively places in Chang'an. was blocked by a group of soldiers and slaves and Qi family members, and there was no way to do business at all. The businessmen reacted quickly, negotiated with several rebel leaders, gave them money, and let them go.

I don't know if I planned to do this at the beginning, or if I only had this idea after receiving the money, the three places began to gather, and it was said that they would gather in front of the Danfeng Gate to protest to Li Chen. At present, the people of the eastern and western cities have gradually dispersed and began to gather towards Danfengmen.

'Those merchants are so quick to respond?' As a businessman, he immediately thought of buying with money, but this should be a lot of money, right? If it's everyone, why is the response so fast?

'Saint, actually.... The Hanlin scholar paused for a moment before he said, "Actually, early in the morning, these people began to gather, and the Chang'an and Wannian county orders first concealed it, but only tried to send officials to expel them. 'Poof, I see, I went to class for a while, and it turned out that I started gathering during class.

'Hmph, they want to invite me, they think too well. Li Chen's eyes shot a fierce breath, these people would actually think that they could gather to protest, but they had already prepared.

'Convey the spirit and lead the generals to the temple. Li Chen asked people to pass on the left and right armies of the gods. Xiaohu, they came quickly, basically they have already entered the palace and waited.

As soon as they heard that there were people in Chang'an who gathered to make trouble, it was still the old army, the left and right Longwu and the Yulin army, Xiaohu and they immediately prepared, everyone suspended training, rested first after eating, and waited for orders at any time.

Then Xiaohu and Gao Biao entered the palace, leaving some generals in the camp, ready to respond at any time, they entered the palace, 2 waited for Li Chen's order, so Li Chen sent someone to pass the edict, and they appeared.

'Oh, it's coming so fast. When Li Chen saw them and came so quickly, he probably knew what they were thinking, and after a few commands, Xiaohu and Gao Biao took the order.

In front of Danfeng Gate, tens of thousands of people gathered in a mighty manner, blocking the nearby crowd and paralyzing half of Chang'an.

Tonghua Gate is nearby, here is known as the first gate of Chang'an, in addition to a large number of people in and out, many of the people living in this vicinity are Daguan dignitaries, even the Sixteen Kings Mansion where Li Chen used to live are here.

Now all the people are crowded with protesters, and the noise is so loud that all the shops in the neighborhood have closed their doors, and so is the inner square. It's just that although the gate of Lifang is locked, many people keep looking out from the fence to see the excitement.

I saw the nearby streets, the heads of people were moving, the noise was abnormal, and everyone was shouting, saying that Li Chen treated them harshly, did not want to go to the frontier Tuntian, was born to be a Chang'an person, and died a Chang'an ghost. Dead and alive are reluctant to leave Chang'an.

Seeing that more and more people gathered, some were rebels and their families, and some were not afraid of death to see the lively people. Speaking of which, these people didn't seem to have any plans, so they came here to protest to Li Chen, but no one knew what they were going to do later.

'Boss, what's next?' In the crowd, several people gathered around a man with a black face and a beard and asked, 'What to do?' The man replied unhurriedly, 'We don't need to do anything, on the contrary, the goal has been achieved, and it's time to slip away.' ’

'Slipped? That's it? A few people looked at each other, they spent months arranging, concatening, and after several leaders were arrested and exiled, they risked sending them to concatenation, and just slipped away?

"Hmph, the dog emperor's face has been cut, just wait for us to watch a good show." The boss sneered, "Now that the crowd has gathered so much, it is very lively near this Tonghua Gate, and soon the crowd will start beating, smashing, robbing, and burning." ’

When the time comes, the Dog Emperor will order the arrest of the people and the order to pacify these rebels. In fact, the boss didn't know how it would develop later, and he was only ordered to do it here, but even if these rebels dispersed on their own, the emperor's prestige would be greatly damaged. Even Chang'an can't manage it well, how can it manage the world.

It is better to suppress it, and the bloody conflict will only make the other feudal soldiers sad, and when the time comes, they will spread the rumors that they will abolish the feudal domain and reorganize the military of the world, which will make them believe it even more. When the time comes, the world will be chaotic if it is not chaotic.

Just when the boss wanted to take a few of his subordinates and leave early, the Danfeng Gate opened. When the boss squeezed for a long time and couldn't squeeze out, and regretted why he was so profitable, Danfeng opened the door widely, and a pair of soldiers, holding shields as the vanguard, began to suppress these rebellious troops and their families who demonstrated to the emperor.

It was easy to suppress these chaotic troops, and Li Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Began to discuss with several prime ministers how to deal with these people.

First of all, some people will be enriched to Longxi. Longxi is dilapidated and in urgent need of population replenishment. It just so happens that there are too many people in Chang'an, so it happens to be reduced.

In addition, part of it will be handed over to the Huainan Jiedu envoy for placement. Li Chen means to develop Jiangnan. Although the economic center of gravity of Datang has gradually shifted to the Jiangnan region. However, Li Chen knows that there is still a lot of room for development in Jiangnan.

During the Five Dynasties, Wu Yue and the Southern Tang Dynasty vigorously developed the south of the Yangtze River, built water conservancy, and expanded many arable land. Li Chen also wants to gradually open up these areas. On the other hand, it is also to avoid these chaotic armies from being unstable in the Western Regions and connecting with each other.

Although it is unlikely, they will not be placed in the same area. With modern traffic conditions, it is too difficult to connect in series, but it is better to divide it into two and reduce the number of people in the same area.

Several prime ministers praised Li Chen for his leniency, and now he is crusading against the rebellion properly, these rebels are so annoying, and it is really hateful to make chaos at this time. Li Chen's treatment in this way can be regarded as leniency.

It's just that after Li Chen thought that it was okay, a lot of bad news came one after another, casting a shadow on Datang's rebellious war. (To be continued.) )
