The chaos in Yunyang is getting worse.
Everyone feels that he is a waver in the wave of the times, and everyone sees their own opportunities in this chaos. There seemed to be an invisible hand pushing behind this, and half-truths and half-false rumors spread throughout Yunyang.
The news that Li Yi killed his father and usurped the throne, the news that Karpas and Li Yi are at odds with each other, the news that some sons in Yunyang are about to move... Rumors and rumors that are difficult to tell are spreading in the streets and alleys at a very fast speed, one version a day, Every time is more exciting, not to mention the crazy amount of information, but also with all kinds of reversals.
For example, Li Yi killed his father and usurped the throne, and various theories can be derived. It is a huge hot spot in the field of communication to make a black hand against one's own biological father, so specifically how and why did he do it? The matter will be traced back to Karpass, and even further back to Lord Yunyang himself. It was precisely because Lord Yunyang marginalized Li Yi that Li Yi chose to fight desperately to snatch his father's power.
This is the official history, and there is naturally unofficial history corresponding to it. For example, someone said that Liyi had a concubine named A Ping. He never thought that the Lord of Yunyang also fell in love with this woman, so Liyi became angry and became a concubine. He stabbed Lord Yunyang with a knife. Compared with official history, unofficial history is easier to be talked about, and this topic is also being heated up at a faster speed.
Then everyone found that the things that can be excavated have almost been excavated, so they can only go forward to trace the source, and explore why Lord Yunyang and Li Yi have to go to trouble Yuxi City over and over again, and what is the problem between them and Li De . So some "informed people" started Copled's years when he was a sharpening stone in Yuxi City. The knife he wanted to sharpen broke, but the stone itself became sharper, which no one expected.
Now that Yuxi City was mentioned, the topic naturally began to lead to Yuxi City.
How prosperous the construction is, how peaceful the people are, how brave the soldiers are... The people of Yunyang are no strangers to Yuxi City, and a lot of news has come out of it in the past two years, but In the past, everyone was always skeptical. After hearing the information until now, they have gradually begun to believe—
In other words, they instinctively chose to believe.
Because people have expectations for good things. In their minds, Li De is also the son of Yunyang after all, and the sphere of influence of Yuxi City can still be regarded as the boundary of Yunyang, and there is no essential difference from other city lords. If it is really as beautiful as the legend says, maybe there is still hope for my future, and everything is not so bad.
Ten days later, under tremendous pressure, Li Yi declared that Lord Yunyang had been seriously injured in the battle against Yuxi City, and that he would take over the position of Lord temporarily. And the first thing he did after taking power was to order Karpass, who was halfway through the army, to return to the east of Yunyang to stand by and not to approach Lingyun City.
This also adds a bit of credibility to the rumors.
Another three days later, Li Ren, the eighth son of Yunyang, brazenly launched an army to conquer Li Yi, calling him the culprit of killing his father, and everyone in the world got to punish him. Not long after, three more young masters jumped back and joined the battle. It's like a volcano that has been silent for a long time erupts suddenly, and no one knows when this war will stop.
If Liyi wins, it's okay, but if Liyi falls, the other princes will definitely start a new round of internal fighting, which is almost endless. The power of the people, which had been squeezed to the extreme, suffered even heavier oppression. Many people will add all kinds of high-sounding reasons to the war, but the essence of wasting people and money will not change anyway.
All kinds of compulsory conscription, various wartime tax burdens, and various clauses have become shackles on the necks of the people.
Not to mention that the military disaster itself is easy to ruin a family. After all, conscription and taxation are still exploited by law. All kinds of unreasonable robbery when the army passes by often bring a more serious blow to a family. In the past, most of the nobles in Yunyang looked down on the people in Tiancheng's territory, but now the common people in Yunyang are gradually becoming like Tiancheng, living without a fixed place and living by changing sons.
When walking on the road, you can often see homeless people squatting on the side of the street covered in mud.
In the middle of the night, from various places, desolate cries could be heard.
Many people who could not bear the torment committed suicide, and their bodies would not be found until a long time later, and they had already rotted beyond recognition.
All the city lords are desperately squeezing the people to collect wealth, and they are all desperately trying to recruit young men into the army. But everyone knows that those armies are places where they never return, so the people often flee when they can. Countless people turned into refugees and wandered in Yunyang. No one took them in, and they didn't know where they were going.
At this time, a distinctive conscription order suddenly filled the streets and alleys of Yunyang overnight.
The first recruiting plan of Yuxi City has begun!
Houses, houses, money, land, everything you need to settle down can be obtained here.
With cheap prices, extremely low taxes, and comprehensive social welfare, everyone can live in peace.
Moreover, there is something that most poor families never dare to think about—compulsory education that is almost completely free.
This means that their children have the opportunity to learn knowledge and change their destiny. Maybe it's just being an accountant, maybe it's just writing and drawing for others, but they don't have to travel outside in the severe cold and heat, and in their eyes, it is already a very good job.
In addition, there is a saying in Yuxi City that "one person is a soldier, and the whole family is honored". Children of soldiers can enjoy some special care, and Yuxi City offers very favorable conditions to soldiers. There is nothing to say about salary, accommodation, and food. Apart from the hard training, there is almost no point to be picky about.
The military regulations and disciplines of Yuxi City were additionally posted on the recruitment order, which seemed to be far stricter than those of other city lords, and it also discouraged many people who wanted to sneak in and sneak in.
The quota for the first phase of the conscription plan is 50,000.
After the conscription order was issued, He Yue actually felt a little uneasy. Everything that can be done has been done, but if the people of Yunyang are unwilling to come to Yuxi City, the future development strategy will be a little nervous. So he didn't sleep well for several days, until not long after, He Yue received a letter from Fang Shisan from the front line.
It took only one week for the 50,000 carefully selected soldiers to be recruited, and there were still people coming over in a steady stream. The purpose of Fang Shisan's letter was to ask He Yue how to properly accommodate these people. In order to be able to come to Yuxi City, the people outside were almost overwhelmed. Many people knelt in front of Fang Shisan and begged her to take her in, claiming that no matter what, they were unwilling to return to Yunyang, which was about to become a hell on earth.
He Yue asked for Lide's thoughts, and Lide yawned, his tone full of laziness:
"Since you're here, you're a guest of Yuxi City, just keep it... What, is there not enough land?"
He Yue nodded, and Li De smiled and waved his hands, and said lightly:
"Then fight until enough."
