Chapter 2357 The Foundation of Chang'an
...
Even though it was a rough estimate and not very accurate, Liu Tong felt his scalp tingling after seeing it.
With such a huge number of people gathered together, if something really went wrong, the impact would be huge.
Moreover, it is very difficult to restrain such a large number of people. After all, these people are civilians, not military soldiers.
There is a very obvious gap between the two sides in terms of discipline and innate training, and this gap is basically unbridgeable.
Even though these people are soldiers, their number is so large that there are only a few people in Chang'an who can truly command them.
What's more, these people are not soldiers, but just ordinary people. They are inherently weaker than the army in terms of organization and discipline.
Moreover, most people tend to follow the crowd, so if something goes wrong, it will be a big trouble.
This kind of thing has happened in history.
Think about the period of Emperor Wu of Han. Also in Chang'an, the common people of Chang'an could even fight against the imperial guards of Emperor Wu of Han. Just thinking about this, you can see how outrageous Chang'an was.
If this is instigated by others and causes any trouble, I'm afraid we will have no choice but to call in the army to suppress it.
Emperor Wu of Han was able to personally come forward and, relying on his own face and prestige, directly quell the unrest of the people without having to send out troops.
However, in the current situation, with previous experience as a lesson, Liu Tong really had no confidence in his heart.
"Isn't this number a bit too many?" Liu Tong put down the intelligence information in his hand and murmured softly.
You know, in a sense, she has only seen this kind of number of people a few times.
The number of pure Dawn people reaching this level is something that has never been seen before.
Even in the past when work was used for relief, there was never so many people placed in such a small place. They were basically assigned to various construction sites and managed separately.
"Indeed, in the past, there were only tens of thousands of people, and it looked quite empty..." Si Niang frowned slightly, feeling surprised by the number of people.
Under normal circumstances, the open area left in front of the Weiyang Palace was actually not that large. In the past history, it was only convenient for the imperial guards to gather.
It is a place where the elite troops of the Northern and Southern armies gather, and it would be good enough if it could accommodate tens of thousands of people.
This huge square was built as a result of Liu Tong's suggestion. It is a precious piece of land left over during the expansion of Chang'an. It covers a very large area and can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people without any problems under relatively crowded conditions.
It’s not because Liu Tong had a foresight about this and reserved the corresponding area in advance, but because Liu Tong was very clear about one thing.
That is, with the capital being located in Chang'an and the subsequent rapid development of the country, Chang'an will inevitably expand further and welcome more people. At that time, whether it is high-ranking officials or other special personnel, it will be very difficult to have a central place again.
In order to avoid such embarrassing situations in the future, Liu Tong naturally made plans in advance and reserved corresponding land for possible heroes in the future.
Of course, in Chen Xi's opinion, the area left now is more than enough.
After all, the top position is one person per job, and even if there is a temporary increase due to external expansion, it will not increase to such an outrageous extent.
To the extent that Chen Xi sometimes wondered that leaving behind such a vast area and venue might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface. However, out of trust in Liu Tong and the eyes of a later comer, Chen Xi did not say anything.
He was just feeling a little uneasy in his heart. With this uneasy feeling in mind, Chen Xi, in the process of developing Chang'an, in addition to the conventional planning, also built some military camps and stationed them in Chang'an City to ensure the safety of Chang'an.
“There won’t be some weird people among these people, right?” Liu Tong originally wanted to try to lure out some perverts, but faced with the current situation, he could do nothing about it.
With so many ordinary people, it takes a lot of energy for the Princess Guard to maintain order at the scene, uphold public security, and ensure that there is no major unrest and chaos.
To ensure the safety of the people and Princess Yang Di while completing these mission objectives, it is too difficult to accomplish such goals among two or three hundred thousand civilians.
Compared with one's own goals, the safety of these ordinary people is obviously more important, and much more important.
Liu Tong, who had such a scale in mind, was ready to give up his original plan and prioritize the safety of the people. At the same time, he began to seriously replan the area to make it as perfect as possible.
"Then Tongtong, if the number of people is really not enough, do we need to mobilize other troops to maintain order on the scene..." Si Niang Liu Tong used the pen in her hand to draw one trajectory after another, and based on the number of troops deployed above, she couldn't help but remind her.
In Chang'an City, in addition to the Princess Guard, there are actually many other legions.
Chang'an City is very large, and there are several normal patrol teams alone to ensure the normality and order of Chang'an City.
Under the current special circumstances, there is actually no problem in withdrawing one or two legions to maintain order.
"Regular troops have their own patrol missions, and during this period of time, more and more supplies have been distributed in Chang'an City, the distribution areas have also increased, and the corresponding maintenance personnel have also increased. In this case, rashly withdrawing troops here is likely to cause greater turmoil. What's more, the most essential purpose of this activity is to distribute the corresponding supplies to those in need. As for other purposes, they can all be postponed..." Liu Tong retracted his expression and spoke calmly with a calm attitude.
Of course, in addition to these regular troops, there are also many elite professional troops in Chang'an City. What's more, they basically do not engage in patrol missions.
These large numbers of elite troops are the foundation of Chang'an City's stability.
Before being sure of the truth behind this matter, Liu Tong would not rashly mobilize such an army.
Chang'an, which has taken so much time to achieve peace and gradually prosper, would be better off not being tempered by the trials and tribulations of life.
"In that case, I will go and find out the reason behind this..." Si Niang was not surprised by this answer. She nodded on the spot and then prepared to go to work... (End of this chapter)
