Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Chapter 159: The imperial book, every word is heartbreaking, Qingzhou is boiling!

Li Junxian continued: "Your Majesty, I don't know, but according to the intelligence, it doesn't seem that the Great Yan army is going to move south. It's just that the troops are stationed on the border, as if they are defending something."

"On the contrary, the Turks are ready to make a move, but they seem to be afraid of something and have not made any next move."

This statement came out.

Li Shimin was stunned.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Li Jing also looked at each other blankly.

A moment of silence.

Fang Xuanling took a breath and said slowly: "Your Majesty, maybe this time the Great Yan is to prevent the people of the Tang Dynasty from escaping into their country."

"I think it must be for this reason."

"I guess Emperor Dayan also knew that what he did last year was unreasonable, so he didn't dare to do it again this year. Therefore, he first expressed his intention and showed his kindness to Your Majesty."

"After all, during this period, Dayan has been sending books to Datang. If they wanted to go south, they would have cut off the supply of books long ago."

"Coupled with the tens of millions of strings that caused Dayan to be surrounded on all sides, they are even more afraid to move."

When Fang Xuanling's voice fell, everyone's eyes trembled.

It seems reasonable!
After Li Shimin thought for a moment, he nodded: "Indeed, Xuanling, what you said makes sense. After all, everyone has defrauded the Tang Dynasty and other countries so much money this year, and received so many benefits last year."

"He has gained so much that he still can't digest it. This year... he probably doesn't want to completely break up with me, Datang. He, Great Yan, probably just doesn't have the courage."

"exactly!"

Li Shimin nodded constantly as he spoke.

It seems that he has convinced himself.

Du Ruhui, Li Jing and the others thought for a while.

Indeed...this explanation makes the most sense!
At this juncture.

Although Datang is sad, but!If they really fight, will Dayan be his opponent?
impossible!
How old is Dayan?How big was the Tang Dynasty?
This only affected two states. You know, the Tang Dynasty had ten states in the world! !

"Okay, don't worry about the Great Yan. How is the Turks doing?"

Li Shimin couldn't help asking.

Li Shimin didn't think about it at this moment, and maybe everyone present didn't think about it.

Dayan was much smaller than Turk, but the first thing they wanted to know was Dayan's movements.

But they still insist on saying that the Great Yan land is small and not something to be afraid of.

The first one to mention Da Yan is enough to show how seriously they take it!

It's just that Great Yan has risen too fast and progressed too fast, making it intolerable or even unacceptable.

This is human nature.

Just like your neighbor, who has always been poor, suddenly wins millions in the lottery and becomes a nouveau riche, you will not be able to believe it, or even believe it.

When they are sure that this is true, they will criticize him as a nouveau riche, step on shit, and other jealous remarks. Except for saints, no one will congratulate him. This is all human nature.

And right now, Dayan... is the upstart!
"Your Majesty, although the Turks are powerful, according to the judgment of the Governor of Chaida and others, the Turks will not invade our Tang Dynasty in a large scale. This is not their attack on the Weishui River!"

"In addition, if the Weishui raid is repeated, Dayan has a grudge against the Turks, and Dayan might stab him in the back!"

"So Governor Chai reassures us that Qingzhou... is absolutely fine!"

Li Junxian's words are conclusive.

And when he heard that it was Chai Shao's judgment, Li Shimin was completely relieved.

"I see, this is a good thing."

"Then ignore them. The most urgent task is to quickly find a way to appease the people and the refugees who are about to appear!"

Li Shimin said, turned and walked towards Tai Chi Palace.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others hurriedly followed.

…………………….
Youzhou.

The locust plague has passed for several days.

Thousands of miles in the red land.

No particles collected.

All that was left of the crops in the cultivated fields were jagged dry weeds, and as for the fruits, there were no fruits at all.

The locust plague is too serious.

The entire Qingzhou almost suffered a disaster.

In various villages, counties and towns, and even Taiyuan Prefecture, countless people have begun to pack up their things, and a wave of refugees is brewing.

Pu County.

This is the most populous county in Qingzhou.

last year.

Because of the proximity to Chang'an City and the small scale of the locust disaster, it can be said that only a very small number of people were lost.

but.

Now, as the first county and town they arrived at after the locust plague crossed Chang'an, the situation was extremely bad.

In the village, mourners are everywhere.

The county town is in ruins.
The people have lost their past lives, and everyone's face shows anxiety and confusion about the future.

After so many days, there has been no official statement or any sign of opening a position. It seems that the news coming from Chang'an is also very bad.

The court also had no food for disaster relief.

Everyone is pretending to be dead, only the people of Qingzhou are starving here.

Puxian Street, in front of the closed grain store.

Many people squatted in the corner, their eyes red.

They have nowhere to go.

We can only stay here, waiting for the food store to open.

but,

Since the day before the locust plague began, all grain stores in the county have closed their doors.

Even if you have a little money, you can't buy a grain of rice at all.

of course,

Most of the people had no food or money.

"It's been how many days, why hasn't the court issued a notice? Our Pu County is close to Chang'an, but we haven't received any news."

"The imperial court... Haha, I'm afraid the imperial court has given up on us, right? They don't have food either. The food is still in the hands of the noble clans, just like last year!"

"Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to the rumors from the court last year and should have gone to Dayan!!"

"Yeah, this is the worst choice I've ever made in my life! I didn't go to Dayan! Otherwise, we would plant Dayan No. [-], and when we can plant potatoes next year, would we still have to worry about food and drink in this life?"

"Brothers, let's go to Dayan. I think the court will not care about us. Even if we become refugees, escape famine, and go to Chang'an, what will happen? Even if we are lucky enough not to starve to death, if we continue like this, I can’t see the head at all, go to Dayan and you will have a head!”

"But my family's ancestors have lived in Pu County for generations. Alas, that's all. They are almost starving to death. It's me who has embarrassed my ancestors. I'll go to Dayan too."

"......."

Many people shouted.

Here, there is some confusion.

Somewhat noisy.

It has also become a somewhat popular place in the quiet Pu County.

For so many days, the entire Pu County was about to become a place of death.Everyone stopped talking because they were hungry.

Also at this time.

On the quiet street, I suddenly remembered the shouting.

"Sell the newspaper, sell the newspaper!"

"The latest issue of Dayan Weekly only costs one penny per copy. One penny can't even buy a grain of rice, but it can provide you with a good place to go!"

"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, the latest issue of Dayan Weekly, the Dayan court wrote a letter to us people, take a look, read it!"

"Dayan, Dayan, we ordinary people should take a look at the latest news from Dayan. The imperial court of Dayan has always been concerned about our Qingzhou!"

"......."

The vendors selling one by one took to the streets again.

This time it was fair and above board, not as sneaky as before.

because.

Li Shimin banned the sale of Dayan Weekly in Qingzhou, so for a period of time, the sales tasks were completed in private.

And now.

There is no other reason for this, because the patrol agents in Pu County are also hungry and have no strength.

If you can't live anymore, who will care about the court's tasks?
"Dayan Weekly? Come here quickly and give me a copy!"

"I also want!"

"......."

After hearing such shouts, the hungry people squatting at the base of the wall became turbid and a little blue, with eyes shining with hunger.Suddenly there was a glimmer of hope.

They never expected that the Tang court did not think of them, but the Great Yan court thought of themselves.

And, it’s only a penny!

As the hawker said, you can't even buy a grain of rice for a penny in Pu County today!

"Quick, read it to me!"

"What's written on it?"

"That's it, hurry up! Scholars, read what the Great Yan court said."

"......."

Many illiterate people surrounded those who were buying newspapers.

Suddenly,

Pu County actually glowed with a lot of vitality.

The people all looked at the newspapers expectantly.

Great inflammation!

Great Yan court!

At this moment.

A commoner who looked like a private school teacher stood up and walked to the front.

All of a sudden, he attracted many people.

"Everyone, let me read to you the letter written by the officials of the Great Yan court to us."

The man cleared his throat and shouted with all his strength.

"Dear Han Chinese compatriots in Qingzhou, I, Dayan, know about the disaster facing Qingzhou and am deeply saddened. However, due to my status, I am unable to intervene directly."

"The Han people in Qingzhou, after decades of turmoil and struggle, finally settled down from the chaos in the late Sui Dynasty. But! The newly established Tang Dynasty did not give the people of Qingzhou, or the people of the ten states in the world, It brings prosperity and prosperity, but on the contrary, it colludes with the clan clans, treats the people tyrannically, colludes with the local gentry, and embezzles the land and houses of our people!"

"More than ten years have passed, and our people in Qingzhou have not seen the light. They are still living in darkness, struggling on the edge of starving to death."

"Last year, I, Dayan, saw the disaster in Youzhou, and I wished I could stand with the people. But! I, Dayan... after all, my name is not justified!"

"But, compatriots, we are compatriots. When we, the people of Great Yan, saw how hard you were working, we all agreed to open the country and try our best to help you!"

"After the locust plague last year, many people stayed in Dayan and became a part of Dayan. But! I, Dayan, know that the other people in Youzhou who stayed in the Tang Dynasty are still not peaceful and stable. I miss them very much! "

"Last year, Youzhou was hit by a disaster, but the clan clans rarely united together. They only thought about their own interests and never considered their compatriots!"

"As a result, people are displaced thousands of miles away and starve everywhere, but they just raise the price of food and eat the flesh and blood of our compatriots to satisfy their desires!"

"Last year, how many compatriots left us? One thousand? Ten thousand? Or twenty thousand? It's hard to say, but I, Dayan, believe that all of your compatriots know it clearly!"

"This time the locust plague has come again, but the court has been doing nothing for so many days. The nobles and clans are competing to raise prices, and they don't take the people in their eyes at all, and keep it in their hearts! I, Dayan, feel even more sad!"

"Throughout the dynasties, there have been countless tragedies for the people. We should learn some lessons! History has taught us that our compatriots must unite closely. Dayan will always be with you. Only in this way can we defeat this disaster!"

"If we waver in compromise and still have illusions about the clan, compatriots, we will suffer even more painful lessons in the future! What happened last year is so vivid in our minds, are we going to have to watch ourselves become refugees this year? , did your wife, children, and children at home starve to death on the road?"

"Wake up, compatriots, stop having illusions about the Tang Dynasty court, and stop having illusions about the clans and clans!"

"We are all. Our Majesty, Yang Kuan, is the orthodox emperor, and he also owns the imperial seal. My Majesty, Dayan, is the one who is truly destined by destiny! And, my Majesty, Dayan, founded the country in Dayan to inherit the aspirations of Yao and Shun and open up the world for all generations. Peace!"

"Dayan and Tang Dynasty are from the same origin. I believe you all understand Dayan. There is a bright future here in Dayan, and it belongs to us as well as you!"

"Come back, come back! You have been away from Dayan for a long time. Dayan belongs to us. This is the sacred mission given by history to our generation!"

"The times are advancing and the situation is developing. All the officials of Dayan believe that after Qingzhou enters Dayan, we will jointly create an unprecedented glorious history for Dayan. Sooner or later, the Tang Dynasty and the noble families will be swept into the trash can inside!"

"Long live our compatriots! Long live the people! Long live Dayan...!!!"

When this man read the last three sentences, his voice completely broke.

The voice fell.

quiet!
silence!

Needle drop can be heard!

Silent!

There was no sound in the entire streets of Pu County, as well as in the surrounding people.

They were all stupid!

Dayan... Has Dayan been thinking about them?

Are you thinking of them?
Yes!

Fellow!

We are all Han Chinese, not aliens, but our compatriots! !

Putting aside the difference between Datang Building, they are actually the same!

at last.

I don’t know how long it took, but someone suddenly shouted: "Dayan...Dayan! The officials of Dayan are right. If you stay with them, if nothing else happens, you will definitely not be hungry!"

"Of course not!"

"Long live Dayan, long live Your Majesty!"

The sound came out.

The entire Puxian Street exploded instantly.

Countless people were all excited.

"Dayan is waiting for us. Over there...it turns out that Dayan has been waiting for us all along!"

"Join Dayan! What Dayan said is right, the Tang Dynasty and the noble families will be pulled down sooner or later!"

"Yes! In that case, we in Qingzhou are following the Tang Dynasty next door? It's the same if we join the Great Yan! The Tang Dynasty doesn't care about us, and the noble clans exploit us, but the Great Yan is different!"
