After the Ruijin Camp entered Juye Ze, it took five days to clean up the cottage and the place where the family members of the gangsters lived near the water pond. .Nearly 3 people, men, women and children were driven out of here. For them, they still don't know where to settle down.

Li Xian didn't have any sympathy when he ordered these things to be done. No matter how those people pleaded or cried, they couldn't move his heart of stone.A few hooligans took the opportunity to instigate the cavalry who tried to get the people to attack the Ruijin Camp, but they were picked out by the quick-witted Flying Tiger Secret Agent who rushed into the crowd and chopped off their heads on the spot.The resolute measures shocked everyone, even if they didn't want to, they could only leave the place where they lived for two or three years.

Maybe they will all become homeless wanderers, maybe they will find another place to be thieves again soon, or maybe they will return to their hometown to start a new life.But all of this has nothing to do with Li Xian, because these people must not stay. For the terrain of Juyeze, these people are far more familiar than the people in Yanshanzhai.Leaving them behind can only be a disaster. At some point, they will blow up the hard-won victory like a ticking time bomb.

He failed to kill Zhang Jincheng in one fell swoop, so Li Xian had to be more careful.

During these five days, the soldiers of the Ruijin Battalion gathered all the fishing boats in the water and set them on fire.This was also to prevent Zhang Jinzhi's troops from coming in by water after returning. Just in case, there were nearly 5000 troops in the Ruijin Camp, but more than [-] people were stationed by the waterside, patrolling day and night.

That's why Li Xian wants to keep the craftsmen who built the boats. Boats are a necessity in Juyeze, and without boats, the huge water berth becomes meaningless.The boat can be burned, but the craftsman must stay.

There are still a few years before the collapse of the Great Sui building, and Li Jiajun will live in Juyeze in the past few years.Whether it is a fishing boat or a warship, it must be available.Temporary destruction is for temporary stability, and there is no other way.

In the end, there were about 300 craftsmen left behind, and these people were strictly controlled by Li Xian's order.Before solving Zhang Jin said, the prevention of these more than 300 people should not be taken lightly.To establish prestige, but also to show kindness.Among the more than [-] people with family members, their parents, wives and children were also left behind as an exception, but they were not allowed to leave Juyezawa, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.Most of these people were captured by Zhang Jincheng from various places. In fact, they didn't react too much to who would be the master of Juyeze.

Li Xian's cautiousness seems a little too much, but it is also a means that must be implemented.

The homes of these people were basically razed to the ground by Zhang Jincheng's men, and they followed Zhang Jincheng back to Juyeze in desperation. They just wanted to survive, but they didn't have any support for Zhang Jincheng.They don't really care who is the owner of Juye Ze, what they care about is whether they can survive.

This being the case in troubled times, the people at the bottom are the ones suffering the most.

On another five days, Daxi Changru led more than [-] infantrymen from the Li family army to arrive. So far, the army has all entered Juye Lake.Reorganize the cottage, build a water village, and then send more people to patrol around the clock.In the first few days, you can't take it lightly.

Next, what Li Xian has to do is to think about the stability of Ju Yeze.

Zhang Jin said that when he occupied Juyeze, in order to ensure the survival of tens of thousands of people in Juyeze, he had to go out and loot their houses, and countless villages were razed to the ground by bandits.Although Li Jiajun's food and grass are not a problem in a short period of time, Li Xian can't ignore it.Go out and plunder the people?How long can the looted things last?

Li Xian is waiting, waiting for a chance to make a fortune.

……

……

Strolling along the edge of the lake, looking at the huge lake that can't be seen at a glance, just like standing on the sea and looking far away, it can open up people's minds.Although it is a pity that all the fishing boats were burned for the sake of safety, it is a pity not to be able to go boating on the lake, but it is also very pleasant to just stand on the shore and watch the lake and mountains.

"It's a pity. It would be great if there was a boat. You can go to the lake to have a look."

Standing beside Li Xian, Ou Siqingqing said with some regret.

Li Xian smiled and said: "There are boats. I had a few larger warships dragged to the shore and they were not burned. But we have only just arrived at Juyeze, so it's better to be safe. We will go boating on the lake later. There are plenty of opportunities. After I get rid of Zhang Jincheng, I won't have any scruples."

"I know."

Ou Siqingqing smiled and said, "I just think it's a pity that those boats burned."

Li Xian took her hand and sighed: "Silly girl...how can you hide your thoughts from me? I know you don't feel sorry for those fishing boats, but you feel sorry for the people who were driven out of Juyeze by me?"

Ou Siqingqing nodded with her lips pursed, but did not speak.

Li Xian pulled her to sit down in a small pavilion by the lake, looked at the rippling water of the lake, said in silence for a while: "The common people are pitiful, I know. But if we don't drive them all out, once Zhang Jincheng brings It is impossible to guarantee that they will not cooperate with these people. Although these people were snatched by Zhang Jincheng from outside and forced them to settle in Juyeze. I know they do not necessarily support Zhang Jincheng, but even if there are I am not willing to take any risk, after all, the lives of tens of thousands of people are now on my shoulders."

"The greatest characteristic of the common people is patience. Zhang Jin said that maybe they were not good to them, and they robbed their food and raped their wives and daughters. But after a few years, the women who were robbed have already gotten used to the current life. , Those bandits who took their bodies forcibly at the beginning have now become their husbands. With children and a home, they accept their fate. From the time when they hated those bandits who robbed their homes, now they stand at the gate of their yard waiting every day It's not a slow process and it's not difficult for them to accept it when their men rob the house and come back to reunite."

"Now that we are here, it seems to be good for them to keep them. In fact, their resentment towards us far exceeds the resentment towards Zhang Jincheng. Maybe in another year, two years, they will get used to our arrival, Re-stabilize their lives, but... I don't have a year or two to appease them, because the enemy can't give me a year or two."

Li Xian's voice was very soft, and his reasoning was also very strange.

So although Ou Siqingqing nodded slightly, she didn't quite understand.

"I told you before that to build a paradise, there will be no war, no disaster, and no sorrow. Maybe you will think that what I am doing now is to make the people sad. I am a liar."

Li Xian smiled and said, "But, what is the prerequisite for building such a happy land?"

He answered his own question: "I am alive. Only when I am alive can I realize the ideal in my heart. If... we all died because of a moment of soft-heartedness, you said, those who were driven out of Juyeze by me before Sad people, will they not laugh?"

"There is still a long way to go in the future. Maybe I will do many seemingly cruel things, but Qingqing... You have to believe that in the future, I will definitely be able to fulfill what I promised you."

Ou Siqing nodded, her face flushed slightly.

"Tell you a story."

Li Xian smiled and said: "A long time ago, the south of the Central Plains was occupied by three people. They established their own countries respectively. One was called Wei, the other was called Shu, and the other was called Wu. Among them, the person who established Shu Called Liu Bei, he was very weak when he first raised his army, with only a few thousand troops and only one county. Later, his opponent Cao Cao of Wei State led hundreds of thousands of troops to attack him. Liu Bei couldn't beat him and had to escape, but he was a benevolent A philanthropic person couldn't bear the common people to fall into Cao Cao's hands, so he took the people of the whole county and ran away together."

"Liu Bei has a very famous and capable man named Zhuge Liang. He persuaded Liu Bei, my lord, if you evacuate with hundreds of thousands of people like this, you can't even walk twenty miles a day. Cao Cao’s army will fail if they catch up. It’s better to abandon the people, we can escape the pursuers by traveling lightly. Liu Bei refused, saying that I can’t bear to see the people being implicated because of me, and must take the people with us.”

Li Xian asked Ou Siqingqing: "What do you think, for the common people, is Liu Bei's benevolence or Zhuge Liang's benevolence?"

Ou Siqingqing said without hesitation: "Liu Bei, he can't bear the suffering of the people. He would rather be chased by Cao Cao's pursuers than abandon the people. Naturally, Liu Bei is benevolent and righteous."

Li Xian smiled and shook his head: "Actually, you are wrong."

"Because Liu Bei fled with hundreds of thousands of people, he couldn't go far every day. Although Zhuge Liang repeatedly blocked Cao Cao's pursuit with clever tricks, he was finally caught up. In order to kill Liu Bei, Cao Cao's men fought hard. Before chasing and killing them, both Liu Bei's soldiers and civilians were killed in front of them. I don't know how many people were killed. I only know that if they didn't go with Liu Bei, Cao Cao's men would be killed There is no need to massacre people."

"If they stay at home, that county will become Cao Cao's territory, and they will become Cao Cao's people. Why would Cao Cao kill them? Doesn't Cao Cao need people? If Liu Bei listened to Zhuge Liang's advice, just Fleeing with his own army, will his soldiers die because of the encumbrance of the people? Will the people... be massacred?"

"So, Liu Bei, who seems benevolent and righteous, is actually an idiot. To put it in a darker way, who knows that his purpose of fleeing with [-] people is to use the people to block Cao Cao's pursuers? It looks like Zhuge Liang, who is not benevolent, is actually thinking about the people, because he knows that no matter how insidious Cao Cao is, his country needs people. Can it be called a country without people? Walk with the people, then the common people
