The fleet of the 8th Division, because Shangfeng did not allow it, docked at the Yujing No. 1 pier, and finally had to choose to dock at other piers far away from Yujing City, and did not arrive at Yujing City until noon on May 10.

This time, when I came to Yujing City again, I passed through one town after another, which made Ouyang feel even more profound!

There are also a lot of different views from the first contact.

Yujing City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, is indeed prosperous and abnormal, and there are crowds of people everywhere. It is not much worse than the sea on the earth, which is known as the ten-mile ocean field, and New York, the international capital, or some places are more prominent.

But!

There are always two sides to everything!

Behind the prosperity is the hardship of countless middle- and lower-class people.

On the outskirts of Yujing City, Ouyang witnessed the scene of some ordinary people who couldn't survive selling their sons and daughters;

I also saw some high-ranking officials and dignitaries bullying people and scolding ordinary people;

I also saw the rows of low and dilapidated slums behind many bustling streets.

There are so many scenes like this, Ouyang has seen too many along the way!

Datang?

"Is this really the Tang Dynasty?"

Ouyang couldn't help but ask.

When he just crossed over to the Blue Star, Ouyang didn't have such a deep understanding, he only saw prosperity, and only saw the military strength of the Tang Empire, but the longer he was in contact, the more Ouyang could feel the huge polarization between the rich and the poor in the Tang Empire.

Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road!

The national strength of the Tang Empire is very strong, it is one of the best powers in Central Continent, and the annual financial figure is an unimaginable astronomical figure. However, the vast majority of its finances are not used in basic public facilities and buildings, nor are they used much in people's livelihood and welfare, but on military construction.

The situation in Blue Star is chaotic, and it is in a great era when all countries are climbing the peak, and it is understandable that more troops will be invested.

After all, if the army is not strong, the country will be bullied, and the people will not be able to live a good life!

But!

Datang's annual financial revenue, in terms of army construction, tends more towards the upgrading of equipment, and ignores the income of ordinary soldiers.

For ordinary soldiers of the 12th Group Army, their annual salary is less than 10 yuan!

10 yuan?

What is this concept?

In any slightly high-end restaurant in Yujing City, this 10 yuan can't even afford a meal!

10 yuan is converted into rice, at most you can buy 150 catties of rice, where is it enough for a person to live?

And how can one person feed the whole family?

Soldiers' income, extremely low!

The gap between the rich and the poor is extremely serious!

This is a great hidden danger behind the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Maybe it won't be okay now, after all, the Tang army's combat effectiveness is very strong, and it has won successive victories in the wars with the bordering countries, which has greatly enhanced the pride of the people. But this sense of pride, it is built on the basis of a serious gap between the rich and the poor, and the low income of soldiers, once the Tang army loses again and again, and suffers a lot of defeats, this hidden danger will be like a tsunami, dragging the Tang Empire into the abyss!

"This kind of huge hidden danger, can't the leadership of the Tang Empire see it?"

"Could it be that the head of state, who has controlled the giant wheel of the empire for 38 years, can't he see it?"

"No, they can see it!"

"But they just didn't solve it!"

In the end, Ouyang, Rommel and others came to the most critical point!

The head of the Tang Empire is 89 years old!

He led the people and army of the Tang Empire to bring a country with a land area of only 100,000 square kilometers to glory through conquest and annexation, and the land area of the Tang Dynasty has reached more than 1.1 million square kilometers today.

The land area has expanded by 11 times!

It can be said that the head of the Tang Empire, he is a hero.

He is the greatest hero of the Tang Empire!

However, he is now 89 years old, and no one knows how many years he will live? For a hero, there is nothing more uncomfortable than the twilight of a hero. He wants to lay more land for the Tang Empire in his lifetime!

Under the annual war, even the richest and strongest country has to be empty!

The Great Sui Dynasty in Chinese history, how strong and rich it was!

Even the Tang Dynasty, which is known as the coming dynasty of all nations, the rule of Zhenguan and the prosperous era of Kaiyuan created by it, if compared with the Great Sui Dynasty, the gap is not a little bit. But such a powerful Great Sui Dynasty has collapsed in the battles every year. What's more, it's the Tang Empire of Blue Star now?

"The Tang Empire, what is needed most now is not expansion, but to end the war as soon as possible and enter recuperation!"

Ouyang said secretly: "Maybe the head of the Tang Empire is planning to recuperate after ending the dispute with the United Emirate of Bezos and counterattacking Qingbei." ”

This is undoubtedly a shocking gamble on the future of the country!

If the bet is won, the Tang Empire will go further!

If the bet is lost, the Tang Empire is likely to collapse!

Moreover, there is no shortage of careerists in any country and any world, and in the Tang Empire alone, there are many high-ranking military and political officials waiting for an opportunity!

Waiting for the death of the Führer, they rose together to compete for the Führer's throne!

Datang is now like a beautiful national capital sitting on top of a volcano, and its huge hidden dangers may erupt at any time!

At that time, it will be a bloody battlefield!

The Tang Empire has its own problems, but at the same time, many countries in this world, or rather, all countries, have the same problems!

Every country wants to compete for world hegemony!

Every careerist, wants to be in power!

This is a great time when everyone wants to reign on the throne, and every nation is struggling to climb the peak!

The stronger the country, the stronger!

If the country is weak, the country will die!

This is a multiple-choice question!

May 11, a.m.

Ouyang, Rommel, Arnold, Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, Jiang Xiaoyu, Zhao Gang, Gao Qian, Wei Monk, Zhang Dabiao, Lei Zhan, Huo Simiao, and a group of more than a dozen people strolled through the streets of Yujing City.

The first stop is the Senate of the Tang Empire!

"If our nascent Shanhe Party wants to become truly strong, then it must get more say in the future, and winning a seat in the Senate is the most urgent step for us at present!"

Arnold said in a deep voice.

Ouyang said awe-inspiringly: "If you want to get a seat in the Senate, then in the upcoming battle with the United Emirate of Bezos, you will have a chance to make a name for my Longquan Corps!" ”

Hearing Arnold's words, everyone nodded in unison.

In everyone's eyes, there was a flash of hope!

~~~~~

The heroes of the Tang Empire gathered in Yujing City, and Ouyang also saw a lot in a few days.

The elites drawn from various group armies are indeed much stronger than the current Longquan Corps!

Whether it is weapons and equipment or the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, the Longquan Corps still has a long, long way to go.

There is only one day left until the day of the expedition to the north!

On this day, Fang Jiangong and Ouyang finally met.

The first update of "" was sent.
