Chapter 682 Lead the snake out of the hole
This is what the government soldiers are like. They are soldiers in wartime and farmers in non-wartime.

Yunchu himself felt that it was time to practice the drill, and today was just right, so he took it as a reassurance for those veterans.

This kind of gathering of government soldiers and people is something that Chang'an, Wannian, and even the entire Datang state government should do.

It's just that there is no place like Chang'an, and the two counties of Wannian take this matter so seriously.

Since the advent of gunpowder, the city wall is actually not that important. What is great is just a small barrier on the way of the enemy's attack.

Compared with the human heart trapped by the city wall, Yunchu prefers the human heart, not the city wall.

There are 20 people outside Wannian County, and a larger population of 30 outside Chang'an County, which is basically the same as the residents in Chang'an City, half to half.

Yunchu needs more than [-] people outside the city to produce a large amount of grain, vegetables, and livestock, so as to supply the daily expenses of the people in the city as much as possible.

People in the city continue to make money and pay people outside the city to maintain their living standards. This is a problem that complements each other.

It's just that the people in the city still somewhat look down on the farmers outside the city.

There is no way around this. This kind of discrimination comes from human nature and cannot be eliminated. Therefore, when Yunchu set prices for grain, vegetables, meat and eggs, etc., he was biased towards farmers outside the city.

Therefore, farmers outside the city do not have much inferiority complex when facing the city people. After all, they keep all the good things to eat for themselves, and the bad things are transported to the city for the city people to eat. eat.

Complementing each other is the way to get along. It has nothing to do with whether you like each other or not. Anyway, whether you like it or not, we all have to be tied together to live a good life.

There are many cavalry outside the city, and many armored soldiers inside the city.

In Wannian County and Chang'an County, there are many high-class household registrations in the countryside, so they recruit more cavalry, and there is no extra space for raising horses in the city. Therefore, they mainly develop armored soldiers, and they are heavy armored soldiers.

As for how to maintain the love for the government soldiers who have no mouths and Yongyetian when most of the people in Chang'an are not short of food and clothing?
The usual tax cuts could no longer impress the people of Chang'an, so Yunchu creatively proposed the subsidy method.

Not only are there subsidies, the county government also stipulates that there are many occupations, only government soldiers can participate, and non-fu soldiers cannot participate.

For example, the profession of guarding, or the field of long-distance business, and for example, the government soldiers can participate in the selection of bad people, the selection of Wuhou in Huoxunpu, the selection of fast arresters, the selection of government servants, the selection of urgent express delivery, etc. In short, as long as you become a government soldier , the future is bound to be bright.

If the benefits are given, it is natural to have to work hard. The benefits of the government have never been easy to get. Fortunately, the concept of taking other people's money and being controlled by others has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

On this basis, Yunchu naturally wanted to train these people to death. If he didn't train them to become elites, he would feel sorry for his painstaking efforts on Fubing.

Now, when it's time for inspection, judging from the current situation, the results have already come out. Whether it is military discipline or proficiency in the military formation, they are all good, and they are all positive when sending troops.

It can be said that these government soldiers in Chang'an City can't find any other shortcomings except for spending money.

Of course, if soldiers don't see blood, it's nothing. Yunchu is currently actively looking for places where soldiers can see blood.

If they can really fight a few battles, these government soldiers will become real soldiers.

Seeing that the cavalry rushed out in black, they ran along the road until they reached the horizon before turning back.

Yunchu was somewhat dissatisfied, because these cavalry deliberately avoided the farmland and vegetable fields, and ran along the main road.

Residential dwellings were not allowed within three miles outside Chang'an City, only large tracts of open land where food and vegetables could be grown, even pigs could be raised, except for houses higher than six feet.

This is a requirement for combat readiness, and both Wannian County and Chang'an County have implemented it quite well.

The cavalry ran out, and the remaining armored soldiers could only practice on the spot.

It has to be said that the appearance of the brigade's troops practicing under the city is astonishing.

The barbarian who was still arguing with Han Da just now, seeing this kind of battle, quietly led his camel caravan to Qujiang, where the caravan should go, he just didn't want to An extra fee for the use of the carriage is just a matter of convenience.

Abdul Hashim, the envoy from the Great Food Kingdom, and Aziz Said saw the entire exercise. The two looked at each other without speaking, but the expressions on their faces were definitely not calm.

"Chang'an is the western capital of the Tang people. They also have Luoyang, the eastern capital, and two cities of the same size as Jinyang and Beijing."

"Chang'an has the largest population, followed by Luoyang and Jinyang. We cannot exaggerate the strength of the Tang people, nor can we underestimate the strength of the Tang people. We must record what we see and hear."

"This time I happened to go to Luoyang with Yunchu to attend the enthronement ceremony of Yunna Buddha. You might as well go to Jinyang and see if that Beijing is as huge as Chang'an."

"After watching Jinyang, I am going to go to the south of the Great Tang Empire. I heard from the Dashi businessman who first came to Datang to do business, that you can return to Dashi by land, and you can also return to Dashi by sea. No matter what, I Want to try."

Hashim nodded and said, "That's very good."

When the big cannibals watched the Tang army's military exercise, they didn't have much trouble in their hearts. After all, no matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty was, it was not very possible to send such a large number of soldiers to the Western Regions River to fight the big cannibal.

This scene was completely different in the eyes of Tubo and Japanese envoys, especially the Tubo envoys, after seeing the enthusiastic military exercises under the city, they became more and more determined in their hearts that the whole Tubo family would manage the west.

He didn't think the brave Tubo warriors could fight such an army after coming down from the plateau.

The Japanese envoy's eyes were full of admiration, behind him was the supremely prosperous Chang'an City, and in front of him was the strongest army in the world, which added another layer of Japanese envoy's admiration for Datang.

As for whether Datang would use such a powerful army to attack them, the Japanese envoys were very disapproving of this.

He didn't think the people of Datang would have any interest in their barren, earthquake-prone and volcanic island. If Datang allowed, he would be willing to take all the Japanese people out of that island and live in Datang.

Looking around, Yunchu couldn't find a place where the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty could practice killing the enemy. Although the Tubo people were very suitable, it was a pity that they stayed on the plateau and were unwilling to come down.

Unable to find a chance to fight a large-scale war, Yunchu planned to let the people here go to the Western Regions in batches, or go to Dahang City and the southern waters to go to sea as a caravan escort or as an adventure group. , It doesn’t matter even if you leave Datang to become a robber. In short, you need to train yourself as a qualified soldier as soon as possible.

The bloodiness of Chang'an people must be maintained, Yun Chu felt that this was the most important thing.

Let me leave Chang'an for all those who are capable, and then bring the good things to Chang'an, and bring them to my family.

The people who watched Yunchu practice soldiers and horses were not only the envoys from various countries, but also people from the Tang Dynasty.

Their focus was different from that of others. In their view, the emperor had just left Chang'an, and Yun Chu was performing troops in Chang'an.

Yunchu blocked Chang'an, and the land deed transaction between Wannian and Wannian counties blocked the way for many people to get rich.

Therefore, Yun Chu is far from being favored by Chang'an people as others imagined.

Therefore, when Yunchu finished his military exercise in the evening, there were no fewer than one hundred messengers going to Luoyang via Baqiao.

Four hundred miles away, only thirteen post stations, under the condition of changing horses but not changing people, he was able to report Yun Chu's plotting misdeeds to his staff in Luoyang in one day and one night.

Yun Chu didn't care about these things, it was Wen Wen and Di Renjie's business, they had been guarding the other side of Baqiao early, waiting to catch the messenger.

In fact, it wasn't the two of them who were arresting the messengers, it was Bai Qisi's people who were arresting the messengers.

Because it was Chang'an's Baiqisi Commander Zhang Donghai who made the move, so the two of them could take a look at those people by the way, and they were dissatisfied with Yunchu.

Zhang Donghai was in charge of arresting people, Di Renjie was in charge of reading the letter, and Wen Rou was in charge of excerpting. After waiting overnight, Di Renjie pointed out the important points, and Wen Wen re-polished it into a memorial, and handed it to Zhang Donghai to take it to the emperor.

Zhang Donghai watched clearly from the side. These two people did not change the content of the letter, did not exaggerate, did not conceal, and just told the emperor in a straightforward manner. There are many people in Chang'an who are dissatisfied with Yunchu and hope that the emperor will replace him. Luo Yunchu, gentle these two people, so that they can take the opportunity to buy the land deed at a low price, and after the government builds the house, they will come to the empty-handed white wolf.

At dawn, Rourou and Di Renjie rode back to Chang'an, took out a hand-painted map and put it on Yunchu's desk, and said, "We always thought that Chang'an belonged to us, but who knew that people thought Chang'an belonged to them. Let's go, many people want to control Chang'an."

Yun Chu glanced at the map, and found that all kinds of names and surnames were densely marked on the map. You don't need to look at the names behind, just look at the surnames to know that there is no family that is easy to get along with.

Yun Chu pointed his fingers on the map, and said to the two brothers who hadn't slept all night and were now dizzy: "The money is here, how should I harvest it?"

Di Renjie pointed to Cui's name and Zheng's name and said: "Change the geographical ranges marked by the two of them, and they can pinch each other by themselves. The aristocratic families are not monolithic. They have a long inheritance and long-standing hatred. , and these hatreds cannot be undone.”

Rourou followed and said: "The place they are competing for was originally the place we wanted to develop. We can consider selling the land deed to them at a high price. After we collect the money, we can choose a place to resettle the people. To develop their territory, it will be developed anyway.

In this way, people will not be offended, and we will also have good benefits. At that time, the valuable land will be compensated to the people, and the worthless land will also need someone to take over, right?

Anyway, Chang'an is so big, which is good and which is bad, after all, our brothers have the final say, don't you think? "
