Chapter 1186 Swords and arrows have no eyes
"After these Xiliang people leave today, within ten days at the latest, I guess the hungry people from Xiliang will come..."
When Bai Qingyan said this, Bai Qingqi immediately understood.
He nodded. Back then, Bai Jintong raised the prices of emerald brocade and furs to make the people give up farming. He joined hands with the eight major families in Xiliang to prevent the news from reaching the emperor's case. He hoarded food and planned to use food to curb the throats of the people... Harvesting the hard-earned money earned by the people with emerald brocade and furs, so that Xiliang is severely short of food.
Later, when Tianfeng Kingdom came to Xiliang, they searched for food everywhere. The people in Xiliang were miserable, not to mention that there were many refugees, and famine had already broken out in some places. They were all stripped.
And because Ye Shoucheng has always been the territory of the Ye family, Ye Shouguan has the final say most of the time, so although Ye Shouguan can't stop most people from giving up farming, Yechengguan has a lot of food anyway!
Coupled with the fact that the Ye family's power in Yecheng Pass was entrenched for generations, neither the Xiliang court nor the Tianfeng Kingdom dared to come to Yecheng Pass to search for food, which allowed the people of Yecheng Pass to live.
But the people in other places in Xiliang are not as lucky as the people in Yechengguan, who can rely on the local government to survive the food shortage.
"During the famine in Yanwo, Ah Jue led people to southern Xinjiang, so there was a small part of the Bai family army in Ah Jue's hands! Yan Guo... also knew the importance of people, so at that time they secretly led the victims to Yanwo. Go to the country!" Bai Qingyan paid attention to his feet, supported his stomach with one hand, and walked downstairs with Bai Qingqi, "If my guess is right, the reason why Yan Kingdom also chose to attack Yunjing in two ways is not for peace. Our Dazhou seized the territory, but to attract a wider range of Xiliang people to the Yan Kingdom!"
"Soldiers... come from the people, and if we want to achieve a great military strength in the Great Zhou, we must have a large number of people. Although our Great Zhou has reached a private agreement with the Yan State to compete with the state affairs of the two countries and merge one country, but You still need to make two-handed preparations, don't put all your eggs in one basket!" Bai Qing said in a gentle and measured voice.
The corner of Bai Qingqi's lips showed a very shallow smile: "But the eldest sister released the people in Yecheng Pass out of the city today, in order to let these Xiliang people understand the situation in Yecheng Pass and how Da Zhou treated the people in Xiliang. Tell me about the situation!"
She nodded: "Compared to the various promises Yan Jun made to the people of Xiliang, do you think the people of Xiliang are more willing to believe what the people of Xiliang say... come to Yecheng Pass, or are they willing to go with Yan Jun?"
"Of course, the words of my compatriots are more believable!" Bai Qingqi's smile deepened. The elder sister always used the most open and upright schemes to seek justice after seeing people's hearts clearly.
It is also Qi, the most powerful.
If it is raised directly and harmless, it is stuffed between heaven and earth.
With an emperor like Changjie in Dazhou, the future will definitely be what the ancestors and grandfathers of the Bai family expected. Inside and outside the court, the whole country is full of righteousness, and they all use evil to seek righteousness without conspiracy.
"If at that time, people from Yecheng Pass turn back, it will be even more attractive to Xiliang people from all over the world to come to Yecheng Pass." Bai Qingqi said.
"That's the reason..." Bai Qingyan nodded with a smile, "The vastness and vastness of the sea can be accommodated by the sea! The people are the foundation of a state, and if a country can accommodate the people of a hundred countries, it can achieve its prosperity through the ages. "
Walking down from the city wall, Bai Qingqi let go of Bai Qingyan, and followed Bai Qingyan unhurriedly: "So, Eldest Sister plans to stay to attract the refugees, and then settle them down...or even take them to other cities Settled down, and then set off back to Dadu?"
"Well, I have already sent someone back to Dadu to deliver the letter. I will rush back before the palace test, and set the date of the palace test on March 15th." Bai Qingyan looked up at the sunny sky and exhaled mist, " I hope that by that time, we have already pacified Xiliang, if... our brothers and sisters return to the capital city together, grandpa will be pleased if he sees it."
Hearing this, Bai Qingqi drooped her eyes and pursed her lips for a while, followed Bai Qingyan for a while before saying: "Eldest sister, before March 15th, Aqi tried her best...to calm down Yunjing! Capture Li alive Tianjiao!"
"Don't rush forward!" Bai Qingyan thought of the veteran general Cui Shanzhong taking command of the expedition, but he still felt uneasy, "You are facing the resourceful old general Cui. My grandfather once said... General Cui Shanzhong is full of tricks and will do anything on the battlefield! Not as straightforward as General Ye's, Yun Poxing's tricks are not enough in front of the old general Cui Shanzhong, so you need to be cautious in everything, put the overall situation first, and don't rush the time!"
Bai Qingyan didn't want Aqi to destroy Xiliang before this date because of his own words, and do something rash to hurt him and his younger siblings.
"Eldest sister that Ah Qi knows is nothing...it's more important than family being here, safe and sound!" Bai Qingqi smiled, "Eldest sister, I'm really happy...and my brother is alive , I am very glad that Ayu is still alive! I am more happy than anything else!"
"Eldest sister knows!" Bai Qingyan couldn't reach the top of Bai Qingqi's hair when she raised her hand. Looking at Bai Qingqi's white hair, her heart was sour.
Since Bai Qingqi came back, except for the enthronement ceremony, it was the first time she came back, and she had never spoken her heart to anyone like this.
She patted Bai Qingqi's shoulder with a smile: "You can all come back, you are all safe, and so is Elder Sister... I am happier than anything else!"
·
That day, there were quite a few Xiliang people who wanted to leave Yecheng Pass. At first, Bai Qingyun asked them to handle it one by one, but later found that there were too many people, so Bai Qingyun simply asked them to line up at the gate of the city, hand out money and leave.
On this day, Dazhou distributed the money until it was dark, and there was still an endless stream of people queuing up. Dazhou had no intention of stopping it. Many Xiliang people who were afraid to leave... feared that Dazhou would kill people behind their backs. The neighbors all left, and my heart was not shaken, and I discussed with my family members about leaving.
Unexpectedly, before more people from Xiliang lined up to leave, some people who had taken their money out of the city in the morning turned back and wanted to enter the city, but they were stopped outside the gate of Yecheng.
The gatekeeper general of Ye Shouguan stared at the people of Xiliang who were about to enter the city gate: "You are not the people of my Great Zhou, leave quickly and don't wander around the edge of my Great Zhou city, otherwise don't blame swords and arrows for being blind!"
As soon as the general who defended the city finished speaking, some soldiers immediately drew their swords and raised their bows. The common people had never seen such a battle before, and they immediately fell to the ground, their legs were so weak that they couldn't stand up at all.
Third watch, good night, little ancestors!
