The first thousand and seventeen chapters of the uneasy heart
Linsha City is in the hinterland of Shazhou, and is six or seven hundred miles away from the border of Qingzhou. Therefore, it is absolutely difficult for those refugees to come to Linsha City.
Now it seems that 600,000 refugees have arrived in Linsha City, but Lin Ze believes that the number of refugees lying on the road will definitely not be less than 100,000.
When Lin Ze thought of the fact that more than 100,000 refugees fell on the road, he was really murderous to those leaders of the Qingzhou rebels.
"Sir, you..." Ma Ziqiang on the other side could not stop him. He is now just an eighth-level master. He is much worse than Lin Ze's ability to directly fight against the innate masters.
"Oh..., sorry, General Ma, sorry!" Lin Ze reacted, quickly gathered up his murderous intent, and apologized to Ma Ziqiang.
"General Ma, I just remembered the leaders of the Qingzhou rebels who caused this huge disaster. Therefore, I couldn't help it, so I could not help it, and I was so embarrassed to make such a mistake that I accidentally hurt you." Lin Ze explained here.
Ma Ziqiang understood as soon as he heard it and said generously: "Sir, what do you say? Beiyi also hates the leaders of the Qingzhou rebels. With their birth, they should have understood the difficulties of the lives of the lower class people. Logically speaking, after they rebelled, they should treat these lower class people well, but they directly ignored the lives of these lower class people and drove them out of Qingzhou.
To be honest, with their strength, they can completely rescue most of the refugees, but in the end they made such a choice. Therefore, sir, for these people, Bei Zhi also wanted to tear them directly."
When talking about this, Ma Ziqiang's eyes also flashed with endless murderous intent, and endless murderous intent to those rebel leaders in Qingzhou.
In history, similar things have happened.
The most obvious example is Li Zicheng in the late Ming Dynasty.
Li Zicheng was obviously born to the lower class, not just Li Zicheng, but most of the leaders of the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty were born to the lower class, so these people knew the hard life of the lower class.
But how did they do it after the uprising?
Not only did they not help the lower class people, but also, during the uprising, they directly took over a large number of ordinary lower class people and treated them as cannon fodder on the battlefield.
In order to avoid these lower-level people not working hard when siege the city, they also detained their families as hostages in the camp. When they were defeated, they left these old and weak behind to block the pursuers behind them.
These rebels did not do such things once or twice, but countless times.
Even Li Zicheng did the same.
Even if he later proposed slogans such as "equal land and free grain", "welcome the King of Chuang, and do not pay grain when the King of Chuang comes" that seem to be very friendly to the people, in fact, these are just slogans. How did Li Zicheng do it before, and how he still does it now, at most it is more hidden.
Not to mention the others, Li Zicheng broke through Kai//Feng and directly dug the dam of the Yellow River. It can be seen that he is not a good person, or that he is actually a hero who does not love the people and only treats the people as bargaining chips.
Every time the Yellow River breaks the dam, the harm is extremely great. Li Zicheng's dam breaks directly drowned more than 300,000 people near Kaifeng Prefecture, so there are countless people who have lost their dependence on life.
If Li Zichengzhen had a life of loving the people and understanding the people at the bottom, he would not have done such inhumane things.
This is just an example, and there are many similar things.
Let me put it this way, from the time Li Zicheng began to rebel until his death, the number of innocent people who died was definitely calculated in millions.
Such people are not qualified to be emperors.
The result proves this. Li Zicheng, who was ruthless in the people, eventually died dramatically at the hands of several farmers.
This is really something that people are doing and God is watching. It is not that they don’t repay you, but that the time is not there. Once the time comes, it will immediately take your life.
"General Ma, have the refugees in the city been resettled now? How many have found a way out and how many are displaced?" Lin Ze asked.
"Sir, this..." Ma Ziqiang's face turned red.
"Please forgive me for your sins. I am humble and incompetent. I have not found a way out for the refugees in the city yet. All the refugees are still in the city and have not placed many people." After saying that, Ma Ziqiang lowered his head with guilt.
"Oh..." Lin Ze sighed in his heart, but he was not disappointed, because not only in Chu, but even in ancient China, the government had the most refugees to be placed in the government, and in the end they would still be sent to the spot.
As for these refugees looking for new ways out, there are very few.
"General Ma, this is not possible. The spring plowing has passed now. Therefore, how will they live next year in the second half of the year? Should they rely on those porridge that is as clear as a soup?" Lin Ze asked very directly.
It's already summer now, so why has the spring plowing passed long ago? Therefore, these refugees can only be supported by the government. However, there is always a starting point for such assistance. As long as these refugees are not found a way out, they will die sooner or later.
Ma Ziqiang obviously knew this, so he couldn't say anything about Lin Ze's words.
"This... sir, you can let Huyi fight, but thinking about these questions is really not the strength of Huyi. So, sir, Huyi will wait for your order to wait for the deployment." Ma Ziqiang replied in a bachelor's opinion, looking like Lin Ze was the leader.
Lin Ze felt funny when he saw it, but Lin Ze didn't say anything about him, because Lin Ze didn't expect anything at all.
As a general, it is already good that Ma Ziqiang can do this now. It is indeed a embarrassment for him to find a way out for these refugees.
What's more, when Lin Ze came to see Ma Ziqiang, he was actually trying to recruit him. Now that Ma Ziqiang takes the initiative to come to his door, it would be strange if Lin Ze was unhappy. How could he blame Ma Ziqiang?
"Ma Ziqiang, how is the wasteland around Zuo Acropolis?" Lin Ze asked about the fields around Zuo Acropolis.
Most of the refugees are farmers, so as long as there is enough land, they can be resettled.
"Sir, don't think about this. The land within a hundred miles of the surrounding area of the Left Acropolis is the land of the generals before the Left Acropolis, so..." Ma Ziqiang shrugged and said.
"Well, it seems that I can't do it if I want to place these refugees around the Left Acropolis." Lin Ze muttered to himself.
"In this way, Ma Ziqiang, you are now organizing those refugees, let's go to Huangsha Town!" Lin Ze said directly.
"Huangsha Town? This..." Ma Ziqiang hesitated a little and couldn't help asking: "Sir, Huangsha Town is a desert area, and there is no land there either."
"Who said there is no land there? This general was the general of Huangsha Town before. From the beginning of I came to Huangsha Town to now, more than 100,000 acres of land have been opened up." Lin Ze said proudly.
"Sir, is this true?" Ma Ziqiang asked in disbelief.
He has been to Huangsha Town three times before and is very clear about the situation there. Now he really doesn’t believe that it will become so good.
"Haha, Ma Ziqiang, Huangsha Town is indeed a semi-desert area, and it seems that it is not suitable for farming. However, he cannot grow the land because of the lack of water. In fact, about two or three meters below the sand is still fertile black soil. I am very embarrassed. This general happened to have a skill in his hand, which is to easily locate the groundwater.
Huangsha Town is short of water, but there is no shortage of groundwater resources, and it is even rich. In addition, the tens of thousands of horses prepared by this general can be regarded as fire-armored cattle for use in plowing oxes. It is not difficult to open up land around Huangsha Town. As long as there are enough manpower, not to mention 100,000 mu, even one million mu of land can be opened up."
"Nee..." Ma Ziqiang took a breath. He really couldn't have imagined that Lin Ze was so capable that he had opened up land in the desert.
Ma Ziqiang immediately believed Lin Ze's words, because such a thing could not be concealed. Ma Ziqiang just asked and could immediately know that this matter was not true, so he believed that Lin Ze would not deceive him.
"If you really have this million acre of land, it will really solve the livelihood of these more than 500,000 refugees. I am really amazing!" Ma Ziqiang was completely conquered by Lin Ze in his heart.
In his opinion, solving the problem of vitality for these more than 500,000 refugees was a huge problem, but it was solved simply by Lin Ze. From this moment on, Ma Ziqiang was sincerely surrendering to Lin Ze.
(Even if one million mu of land is distributed equally, the 500,000 refugees each have two mu. With two mu of land, they will never starve to death. What's more, a large number of people can work in Linze's factory.)
"Sir, after hearing that you had eliminated more than 500,000 sand thieves and completely solved the border problems in the west, I was thinking in my heart how good it would be if I were your subordinate. In this way, Wei Zhi could also show his strength.
Now that I have simply made Beizhi trouble for countless days, I don’t know what to say, but I hope to work hard under my command in the future. Please accept Beizhi!!”
After saying that, Ma Ziqiang stood up and knelt on the ground.
At this time, Ma Ziqiang's heartbeat was very fierce.
