Chapter 5: Pros and Cons

Of course, the tsunami speech will also have a group that they support. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Where's my credit! We're just a small boat and it's a good U-turn! It is the painstaking efforts of the generals and the cities that have made the hearts of the people in our Linhai City territory stable! ”

Li Tang said modestly, but he didn't say anything. Because, Li Tang wanted to see what the generals thought.

"Then the mainland is fine, how can there be a civil uprising? Looking at the momentum, it is not small, is it premeditated? ”

The speaker was a representative from the dream space, Ah Shu, that is, Tang Shu after the name change.

"There are many reasons for this! Now the Han Dynasty has lasted for hundreds of years, and the population has multiplied. The originally surplus fields gradually became strained.

And as the number of landlords, families, and royal families increased, they annexed a large amount of peasant land, turning the peasants into tenants, who could barely make ends meet by selling their labor, but had no surplus food to guard against possible accidents.

Originally, this would not have caused any chaos, but it is a pity that in the past six months, the climate on the mainland has not been normal.

In the past six months, floods, droughts, locust plagues, earthquakes, tornadoes and other disasters have continued in various parts of the mainland. There are also crops that die in the fields because it does not rain; Some crops are about to be harvested, but strong winds and hailstorms have blown them all down and knocked them down, and there are also locust plagues that have emerged one after another in various places, affecting all walks of life such as agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery, and the crop output on the mainland has been seriously reduced.

Under normal circumstances, people can mortgage their land and sell their property in exchange for money and grain to survive. Unfortunately, the wealth of the following people gradually became scarce, and their assets were concentrated in the hands of a few, so that the famine immediately became a factor of social instability.

After all, if you don't have food, you can do anything. At this time, someone raised his arms and shouted, naturally the responders gathered! ”

It was Shi Tianze who made this explanation, although Shi Tianze was not the original Shi Tianze, but his wisdom did not change, and he directly saw the key to the problem.

"Then the court will turn a blind eye and listen to it?" It was the young Huang Wudie who spoke!

And today's eunuchs in the court interfere in politics, relatives dictate power, and the upright people in the court are driven out and ostracized, leaving most of them flatterers. Everyone's mind is on intrigue, how can they care about the life and death of the people? And the emperor is mediocre, intoxicated with pleasures, and does not care about political affairs, how can the people see the sunny day?

As a result, the people's lives were not settled, and the court did nothing, leaving the people to fend for themselves. And Zhang Jiao was already prestigious, and at this time, when he raised his arms, those broken settlements naturally responded! After all, rebellion is at most beheaded, and if you don't rebel, you will starve to death. Instead of starving to death, why not give it a go? ”

This Zhang Hongfan also actively analyzed the incident!

"The general trend of the world is that it must be divided for a long time, and it must be divided for a long time! It's just that the people are suffering; Death, the people suffer. If the superior does not act, it is the people who suffer; But careerists are raging, and the dead, wounded, and suffering are still ordinary people! So, no matter what, we must not mess with Linhai City! If there is chaos, how can we be worthy of the people who trust us! ”

It was Li Tang who spoke.

"The Lord is merciful!"

Everyone's sycophants quickly picked it up.

"So, it doesn't matter what kind of great sage and good teacher he is, or the imperial court, it's good that he doesn't mess with my Linhai City. If we were to disturb my coastal city, we would not give in. In order to protect the interests of the people of Linhai City, even if it is the king of heaven, we must fight to the end. ”

Li Tang still vaguely stated his position, whether it was the court or Zhang Jiao, he would not buy it. It is impossible for them to work hard for their benefit.

It's just that there are not many people who can understand the intention behind this meaning, but everyone has the concept of "first being good at Linhai City, and then helping the world".

"My lord is right. Linhai City is Linhai City, the mainland is the continent, and it cannot be mixed together. We should first guarantee our own development, and then think about the mainland. ”

Among the generals, naturally some people understood the thoughts that Li Tang wanted to express, and immediately echoed.

"My lord, I suggest that we adapt to all changes with the same. The general direction remains the same, and appropriate corrections are made on some details. ”

"That's exactly what I want."

Li Tang agreed. The generals were originally a little eager to try and prepare to show their skills in the troubled times, but they had to shut up at this time.

"In that case, let's predict the changes that the Yellow Turban Rebellion may bring!"

"Looking at the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army, it is estimated that it will not be extinguished in a moment and a half. And the imperial court is a hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen, and it is not so easy to be overthrown.

Therefore, the Yellow Turban Rebellion is destined to last for a relatively long time. At that time, all the places will be in turmoil, the young and strong will go to war, the people will not be able to produce normally, and when the time comes, horses, iron tools, equipment, grain, salt and other strategic goods will inevitably be scarce, and we in Linhai City can make great efforts in these industries.

Sell these materials to the mainland, earn enough capital, and train a strong army. ”

"It's a pity that the trade routes around the country are bound to be rampant with bandits, and if you want to trade, it is estimated that it is difficult!"

"There's no need to worry. The world will not be completely chaotic. Moreover, whether it is the imperial court or the Yellow Turban Army, if they want to buy our materials, we must send them to a safe place for delivery, and at this time they must ensure the safety of our transactions, otherwise, we will not trade.

In addition, there are thieves rampant on land, we have no choice, we can go by water! If the blind guy wants to do some tricks on the waterway, I guess General Tsunami will be interested. ”

It was Ye Hui who spoke, after all, he had been in charge of the Kunpeng Legion for some time, and he was more familiar with business than other generals.

"That's a good idea. The land is not passable, it is a good time to develop water transportation! Whether it is the Yangtze River Basin, the Yellow River Basin, or some tributaries, as long as there are boats, they can be entered! ”

Gan Ning is also familiar with inland navigation, so he spoke positively.

"My lord, the recent Yellow Turban Rebellion. The movement of displaced people is restricted in various places, so the restrictions are basically gone, which is very disadvantageous for us to replenish the population of the territory! ”

To be honest, Linhai City now has a population of 240 million, which may be a lot, but it is still too small for such a large area under the jurisdiction of Linhai City.

Linhai City has more than 40 million square kilometers under it, and it is a seaside and water town with a warm and suitable climate, and there is very little drought and other climates, so there is no problem in feeding 2 billion people!

What's more, Li Tang still has a Qiankun bracelet, although there are only 1 million square kilometers inside, it is more than enough to support 240 million people!

"You say the number of displaced people is not increasing?"

Li Tang can't say that the displaced people are not refreshing, after all, the understanding of the aborigines and the increase in the number of displaced people are all migrated from the mainland.

If the homeless people are not refreshed, then there are still so many villages and towns in the Qiankun bracelet, it is completely unnecessary! It's better to build a city in these outer places, and maybe you can get a reward for expanding your territory!

If you can build thousands of cities on Yishu Island and the Ryukyu Islands, each with a population of hundreds of thousands, then these territories will be connected and impregnable.

"Then let's demolish the villages and towns in the Qiankun bracelet! All built at key points on each island, and important locations managed to be upgraded to cities. Others, depending on financial resources, are also upgraded to cities. ”

It's not that Li Tang doesn't want to build all the cities, it's just that upgrading to a city requires a lot of money, and it's okay to upgrade ten or twenty cities, gritting his teeth.

However, there are thousands of cities, and they have to be well planned. A bad one, easy to bankrupt Linhai City.

Although Ye Biao couldn't understand why Li Tang wanted to demolish the villages and towns in the Qiankun bracelet, it was not easy to question Li Tang in public. Can only cope with:

"It's possible, it's just that everything needs to be stable."

"It's good!"

Li Tang knew Ye Biao's doubts, after all, Li Tang knew that the Qiankun bracelet could brush the qualifications of the homeless, but Ye Biao didn't know. Moreover, Ye Biao couldn't understand the matter of refreshing the homeless people, so he was like this.

However, when the village was to be built in the Qiankun Bracelet, it was Li Tang who made it happen, and Ye Biao was unwilling to use so many village building orders in the Qiankun Bracelet.

At this time, Li Tang ordered the demolition, although he was puzzled, but it was in line with the overall interests of Linhai City, how could he oppose it?

"My lord, our army is now numerous. Each has its own tasks, but I think it's better to plan ahead. "It was Guo Kan who spoke, and this person led the Lion Awakening Legion, but in fact, there is no task at present.

Now, Li Tang has put on a position of not intervening in the mainland and preparing to be neutral, which makes these generals who have no tasks panic, after all, there is no military merit without war, and there is no right to speak!

"It also makes sense, so let's talk about the tasks of each team in the future?"

"The main goal of the Blue Whale Legion is to fight and subdue pirates from all over the world, while ensuring the safety of the shipping routes. Now, with the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the binding power of the government has been greatly reduced, and there are bankrupt homeless people everywhere, who will become pirates.

Therefore, the task ahead will only get heavier. This legion, which should be strengthened, can be drawn from the Sunset Legion, the Jinfan Legion, and the Navy SEAL Legion to join this legion. The number of legions is around 1.2 million. ”

"The trade of the Kunpeng Legion will become more and more extensive, and even go deep into the interior and the Great Lake, so. The required forces have been strengthened.

Moreover, merchant ships are now being built in shipyards everywhere, and these merchant ships are getting larger and larger, with enough space on them to accommodate enough soldiers. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the strength of the Kunpeng Legion. It is proposed to double the number of people to 500,000. In the future, as the fleet expanded, the number of people continued to increase. ”
