Power and Empire Chapter 3028: Yelü Palace (12)
Rain water hits the uneven eaves of Guangmu City. The white water drops are like lines falling on the blue stone streets
The heart is cold, like the rain in front of me,
On the deserted streets, clanging, a bell from the largest temple in Guangmu city came with a cold and cold rain through the rain, and all the Guangmu people on the street looked dead gray, if In the past, someone would stop and listen to the bell from the temple. They would not smile until the seventy-seven-forty-nine ringing was done. Even some wealthy children in the city would be on the Jiu Nongwa city and wait until the bell After the sound was knocked out, yell okay unscrupulously. The voice could hardly be heard by the whole Hirogi. They just like to look at the imperial patrol on the street with a blank face, these Xilu barbarians who don’t understand anything. , How can I know the ingenuity of this bell, seven or forty-nine times, that is the number of death knells, it is very bad, but now, no one has done this, even the bell is no longer continuous Absolutely seven or seven forty-nine times, but after nine consecutive times, there is no more sound
There was still a crowded Hiroki before. At this moment, it is just like a bird, bathed in the first rain of summer in a deserted state.
Located at the gate of Guangmu City, a team of wealthy Guangmu family members full of family properties is slowly leaving the city along the gate of Guangmu City. In front of this motorcade, many Guangmu nobles have chosen to leave in panic. Hiroki
The Long Family has given up Hiroki, and Hiroki Castle is over!
With the news that the whole Hiroki was in despair two days ago, the wealthy families in Hiroki City disappeared five or six out of ten. Hiroki’s people’s hearts have completely dissipated, no matter how they were right. The Long Family was full of eagerness to regain Guangmu, and the Guangmu people were beaten to pieces by the news that came two days ago
Just two days ago, the leader of the Long Family Patriarch, Long Paqin, had an army of 300,000 troops that was close to Guangmu. The strength of the troops can definitely be described as overwhelming. Everyone thinks that the Long Family’s recovery of Guangmu is just a matter of course. , Maybe even a war would not start, the empire would obediently withdraw from Guangmu, but the result was like a bolt from the blue, stunned the entire Guangmu people
The dragon family army has reached a place less than twenty miles away from Guangmu, but a letter from the imperial emperor tells Longpo, who is regarded as the **** of war by Zhongbia, directly ignores Guangmu. He did not hesitate to order the army to retreat, and they were all at the gate of Guangmu, but they left again. It seems that in the eyes of the Long Family Patriarch, Guangmu is no longer worthy of the abandoned son. The news came, and the whole Guangmu The hearts of Mu’s people were cold. Those Southwest aristocrats in the city who were inextricably linked to the Long Family soon received more accurate news from their families through their respective channels. The Long Family did indeed give up its plan to recover Guangmu. Going all-out towards the lower reaches of the river, the various hidden children that were originally lurking in order to regain Guangmu have become wastes at this moment.
"The Long Family is really despicable, and found that Guangmu could not be recovered temporarily, so he simply encouraged the nobles in these areas to completely destroy Guangmu"
Kashiwa Wufeng, who had just been appointed as Hiroki Shou by the emperor, stood murderously on the Hiroki city wall, frowning his eyebrows at the flag flying on a carriage blocked at the gate, and his eyes flashed cold. Luminous, said in a cold voice, "That was the Longlu family, one of the largest giants in Guangmu City. It was one of the three side branches that spread out after the Long family entered the Southwest. Is to penetrate the roots into Guangmuri,
It is said that one-half of the shops in Guangmu City have the shadow of Long Lu's family more or less. Now they are posing as if they are leaving Guangmu. Obviously, they want to tell other people in the city that the Long family will give up Guangmu. Now, as long as the nobles in Guangmu move, the six southwestern cities from Guangmu to Lanzhicheng will have an impact.
I will finally stabilize the situation, I am afraid that it will immediately fall into panic
Unexpectedly by Bai Wufeng, Princess Mingyue's face was quite calm, and the corners of her mouth smiled slightly. It seemed that these nobles who dragged away most of their wealth from Hiroki had no intention of pursuing them at all, even vetoed them. Bai Wufeng proposed to detain these nobles by force, but calmly waved his hand
"Let them go, otherwise, it would be the truth of the Long Family. After all, the Empire has promised the Long Family not to interfere in the stay of the cliques in these areas."
"But!" Bai Wufeng also wants to explain his interests to Princess Mingyue
"Don’t worry, the departure of these gate valves will affect
How much influence we have caused, "Mingyue Princess said disregardingly." Don’t be afraid to say frankly. It won’t take long for these Southwest aristocrats who have left Guangmu to discover that they have made a big mistake, and they will be crying at that time. Shouting and wanting to return to Guangmu, there is absolutely no such opportunity! "
"Oh? Your Highness already has a countermeasure?"
Bai Wufeng’s face was stunned. The Long Family’s hand was quite vicious, it could be described as a draw from the bottom of the pot. Since it was unable to reclaim the land, he simply took away all the aristocratic and powerful families in the area occupied by the empire, leaving a large number of civilians. And now it’s the beginning of summer. The noble family took away most of Guangmu’s property and supplies, but left the vast majority of civilians in Guangmu for the empire to raise. The past summer is the time when food is not available, once it appears. Famine and turmoil are the big problems of millions of refugees. Once the hearts of the people fluctuate, the consequences will be disastrous. Even if the empire finally suppresses the flow of refugees with force, it will make the empire no longer have the energy to take care of the dragon family. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
"It's not a countermeasure, I just got an imperial land decree signed by your majesty!" Princess Mingyue's eyes flashed with imperceptible excitement, she seemed to think of something, and the corner of her mouth smiled
"Land ordinance?"
"I’ve been unable to figure out why the empire obviously relied on force to conquer, destroying countless cities and countries in the Western Continent. More than 80% of the empire area was conquered within a few years. Logically speaking, it’s quite unreasonable. It is impossible for a stable area to become a part of the empire without more than ten or twenty years, but this is the magic of the empire"
Princess Mingyue's voice paused, and she said with emotion, "No matter which ethnic group, as long as it is conquered by the empire, it will often recognize the dominance of the empire within a short period of time, so the empire can miracle. In ten years, it has expanded to such an extent, spanning east and west continents, and controlling a population of 30,000. This is absolutely impossible in any era. In fact, the secret is very simple. It is nothing that the empire never cared about them. The so-called nobles, instead, allocated the land in the occupied areas to the original lowest and largest civilians. As long as the majority of the civilians support the rule of the empire, the rule of the empire will be stable."
"As for those nobles whose interests have been damaged, under the powerful force of the empire, without the support of civilians, what storms can be set off!" Princess Mingyue had a hint of mockery at the corner of her mouth. She was born in the royal family, strictly speaking, too. The top class among the nobles, commenting on her class like this makes her feel very fluctuating in her heart
"Land? His Majesty said, His Majesty has signed the order to divide the land to the common people?" Bai Wufeng took a breath when he heard it, and even his face was shocked. Land, the empire would even occupy the land in the area. Distribute to farmers. . . . . . This is no wonder. Originally, Bai Wufeng was still strange. Instead of blocking the departure of these Southwest aristocrats, the Empire still opened the door to convenience. It didn’t even ask for cross-examination and just let it go. It feels like it’s waiting for these Southwest aristocrats to leave. The nobles are all swept away in a single brain. They don't care about the departure of so many nobles in so many areas, and the possible regional turbulence. It turns out that they have long planned to carve up the land of these wealthy families. If people don't leave, how to divide them? Now people are gone. Only one order is needed to divide it up!
"No wonder the empire is so powerful. With such a foundation, no one can really shake it!"
Bai Wufeng’s eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but burst open with a smile. The reason why aristocrats are aristocrats is that besides being superior to aristocrats, there are also various interests involved. Such a class, think It is very difficult to become his own in a short period of time. He joined the empire in the Northwest Wilderness War. Although he has been in the empire for more than half a year, he has always been in Zhongbia and even the empire. I have never been there, and naturally I don’t know the rule of the empire. The empire’s method of gathering people from the northwestern steppe in the wilderness area has opened his eyes to him. Only now has Princess Mingyue said that the empire still distributes land to civilians. The decree felt that the empire let the northwest grassland people build roads in the wilderness is completely a pediatrics. In any dynasty, the biggest cornerstone is the common people. For most common people, who can keep them full and warm is the savior, not to mention it. In such troubled times,
Even at this moment, a thought flashed through Bai Wufeng's mind. This was not planned long ago, right? If the empire wants to be in the southwest and north in the shortest time
Hold your face firmly, the biggest obstacle should come from these Southwest aristocrats. If the murder is carried out, I am afraid that it will cause more trouble, so it is better to scare all these people away. After all, these so-called regions The rich family is actually the largest landlord in the area
There are only two types of land in Central Bialand. One is Guantian. About 20% of this land is about 20%. The rest is the land of wealthy families. There may be some independent farmers who have gone through more than one hundred years of mergers and acquisitions of wealthy families. Except for Guantian, it is the land of wealthy families in various places. In the southwest, there are no even Guantian. Except for the land of Long Family, it is the land of wealthy families in other regions. Tiandi, the tens of millions of people in the entire southwest are basically farmers from the Long family and the regional giants. Don’t look at these aristocratic giants all leaving Guangmu. Under normal circumstances, these giants will still send people to Guangmu every quarter. Collecting various land fees is like sucking blood, turning the north-southwest occupied by the empire into their own back garden. But now, once the imperial decree is promulgated and the land is re-divided to farmers, these lands have nothing to do with these giants. Relationship
"These Southwest aristocrats who are full of thoughts about sitting and eating the empire's cheapness, this time they were sold by the Long Family, and they don’t know yet. The Long Family wants to enter the court and win the hands of the Song Clan. The most lacking is Money, so encourage them to go south, if they stay in Guangmu, or it is difficult to handle, now, even if it is a branch of the Long family like the Long Lu family, when it comes to the Long family base camp that is in urgent need of a large amount of money to support the main court, I am afraid that even the skin and bones have to be pulled out. What's more, for these trivial regional nobles, it is grace for the Long Family to let them have a bite of food, and they ran to die one by one!" Princess Mingyue tapped his finger lightly. He hit the cold Guangmu battlements and watched Long Lushan sitting on the carriages carried by the four servants, dressed in a blue shirt, humming a little song leisurely. I felt that the other party was really very sad, and I felt that I had been with this a few days ago. It’s not worth it to be regarded as a bankrupt guy soon.
And as Fatty Fatty said, people’s minds are of the highest priority. Don’t look at Guangmu City’s ignorance of the empire. With the departure of these nobles, as long as the land decree is promulgated, Guangmu people’s minds will fall in the shortest time. On the side of the empire, Guangmu can be regarded as the Guangmu who truly belongs to the empire, and he can truly let go of his hands and feet in Guangmu City and respond with one answer!
The sun has gone halfway from the sky to the west, and the sunlight is slanted on the armor of Mongolia Luo, reflecting the light of the cold forest
in front of Mongolia~IndoMTL.com~ A large number of prairie cavalry are surrounding a city. Arrows are clustered like locusts. The prairie infantrymen with heavy shields have crawled all over the city like ants climbing candy. The height of the earth wall is not high, and above the earth wall, the people who are struggling to slash and kill are also steppe people. There are too many steppe infantry from below, and one of them will make up for it when the scimitar falls. Splashing out of the sky of sparks, he has made both sides red eyes, assaulted by heavy armored pawns, he was thrown off the wall by the other party holding his legs, and none of the Fengtai tribesmen in the back breathed well. Ready to pounce again,
Above the city wall, the Yelu Family and Fengtai Department of the same camp were crowded together at the moment, flesh and blood stumps were packed on the ground, and blood spattered around like a squeezed tomato. It was under the early summer sun. The wall of the city is like touching a thick layer of absorbent paper, each sheet is full of blood
"Pop" the flagpole that bound the Yelujia battle flag was cut off, and the battle flag fell off immediately, and was grabbed by a pair of strong hands. Mongol Luo smiled fiercely at the corner of his mouth, raised his whip, and said to the generals behind him" I have seen all of them. I raised the flag and entered the Imperial Capital. Yelu Hongtai just watched and didn’t dare to do anything. Now, the Yelu’s family in the seven border towns to the north has been taken down by us in four at a stretch, and even the tribes we allied with were not saved. They, it can be seen that the Yelu family is now rebellious. As for those tribes who are still watching the situation, as long as we sweep these seven border cities, they will follow us to the Imperial Capital like hungry wolves who smell blood. When the time comes, If you want to get a piece of the big fat from the Imperial Capital, you have to listen to the dispatch of my Fengtai Department. If the Imperial Capital is defeated, my Fengtai Department can justify the establishment of the Fengtai Royal Court and let the glory of the Golden Family reappear. With the world"
