Li Xian's speech caused a huge response in Shang State. Li Xian did not say anything empty and pretentious, nor did he say anything lofty about why he was fighting, nor did he use any tricks like there must be brave men under a big reward.
This speech was more like a "narration", telling the past of Shang State, the future of Shang State, and the voices of countless people of Shang State.
The Shang State was founded only forty-three years ago. What does this mean? It means that many people in the Shang State still haven't forgotten the past. Although there are many newborns in the past forty years, the past population is still large.
Especially for many newly added territories of Shang State, many places even have less than 20 years. Li Xian's words awakened everyone's past memories, which were not distant.
The cultivation world before the Shang Dynasty was actually very chaotic. The other countries only cared about ruling, and no one really cared about the people's livelihood. Even if a country really wanted to do something occasionally, the power in the country was not enough and it was completely unable to suppress the separatist nobles, sects, etc. in the country. Only in the Shang Dynasty did the power in the hands of the country can suppress the people.
To be precise, the overall power of justice in Shangguo has an overwhelming advantage, and no lawbreakers dare to mess around. Therefore, the cultivation world of Shangguo is quite stable, and the entire country of Shangguo is very stable.
Now, the peaceful world of Shang is about to face unprecedented pressure and change. To cope with this change, the whole Shang nation needs to work together.
In this speech, Li Xian did not mention anything about conscription, war, national mobilization, etc. from beginning to end, but Li Xian also told everyone - we have no way out.
The tragic conditions of the ascension channels are still vivid in my mind, and not only those of Shang State, but also those of Li Huotian, as well as those of the ascension channels recently photographed by the Tianwaitian Exploration Joint Group in other worlds, and so on. All of them are like this.
The pictures of the ascension passage brought by the Tianwaitian Exploration United Group from another world completely shattered the last bit of luck in everyone's heart. Ascension is the road to death.
If everyone wants to ascend, and the whole country wants to ascend, they can only fight with the immortal world, and only after winning can they truly ascend.
Li Xian's heartfelt words awakened the anger deep in the hearts of the people of Shang State.
Soon the country began to give various instructions: the free economic model began to shrink, and militarized management began throughout the country. The Shang Dynasty, which had been pursuing a free economic model for more than 40 years, finally began to enter a planned economic model; to be precise, a "semi" planned economic model.
Under the regulation of the state, almost all the discrete resources of society were injected into the industry, especially the heavy industry. Some light industries also began to transform and general military supplies, medical resources, etc., and excellent industrial workers were centralized.
If it were in the past, if the country had done this, everyone would have opposed it; but this time no one opposed it—there were one or two opposing voices, but they were quickly drowned out.
For this 'home', everyone has to work hard.
In addition, a method called "scissors gap" has quietly emerged in the business world. The state "intercepts" private capital by slightly raising the prices of daily necessities such as food, and invests these resources in industrial development. This is a very effective temporary measure, at least for a short period of time, which can promote the rapid development of the country's industry.
