Regarding the issue that only Li Ke's orders were conveyed in these states, it did not cause any waves. Ordinary people did not care. They only believed in His Highness. If His Highness gave the order, it was naturally right.
In their subconscious mind, His Highness has become equal to His Majesty. In their view, since His Highness has announced this, His Majesty must have agreed.
As for who His Majesty is, it doesn't matter.
From the perspective of local officials, they know the situation in the court better. In the past year or so, His Highness has lived in Liangyi Palace. Many orders and decrees were issued by His Highness. Now there is just one more one. What's the matter? the difference?
Human habits are a very scary existence, and the things that are subtly affected are more terrifying than you think. Now, whether it is the court, Chang'an or local officials, they have long been accustomed to Li Ke's direct orders. To their subconscious, Li Ke Complying with the order is equivalent to His Majesty's order, and it is equivalent to His Majesty's agreement.
This is a habit. They have been accustomed to this subtle influence for a long time, and they will naturally not question anything.
Otherwise, why would Li Shimin let these states issue this order in the name of Li Ke? It's because of this habit, this subtle influence.
Now, except for Li Ke, if the prince's order reaches these places, do you believe it or not? These local officials will have to hesitate and then ask for confirmation.
Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never issued any orders, if one suddenly comes, of course everyone will be suspicious.
Amula looked at the scene in front of him and took a deep breath. Let's go down the mountain from the stronghold. It won't be a loss! Today's Xinbu Township is no longer the Xinbu Township with only 500 people. There are nearly 20,000 troops stationed here.
In order to station the army, after the arrival of the 20,000 people, they helped them level the unleveled land in the previous township, and even compacted the land directly. In addition, they helped them build many drying facilities. Stove, I heard that some kind of steam drying method can be used to save the wood from waiting for several long months.
It may be completely dry after more than ten days, and then it can be used to build houses after a few more days of drying.
And with the wood now piled up near each household, Amula felt that it was more than enough to build two houses for them! Not only that, although they live in tents now, each of their households has received subsidies from the court to provide them with enough food to last until next year's grain harvest season.
In addition, this is especially true for salt, and a complete set of iron farming tools has been provided to each household, which is more complete than what they originally had!
In addition to farm tools and animal power, each of their households was given buffaloes, and a set of rice-planting carts were also given to their village, which is much faster than manual rice-planting.
And all these subsidies, I heard, were handled by His Highness the court, because in the Tang Dynasty, these were force majeure factors and were within the scope of state assistance.
The only thing that they can't replenish is the chickens, ducks, and piglets that each household has lost.
But that's not important, because the prices of these things are not that expensive, and the iron tools the court replenished for them have long exceeded their original family property. What's more, when they retreated, they also took away some important assets and property in the family. money.
Therefore, they only need to use their money to buy a batch of these chickens, ducks and piglets from the village, and it is not expensive.
It is precisely because of these reasons that in almost twenty days, everyone in their tribe has gone from being at a loss at the beginning to now being full of confidence in the future. Although the entire village lives in tents, the faces of the villagers The girl smiled again, and the children started playing in the village.
And Amula and the others are more confident that the Tang Dynasty will definitely become stronger in the future!
Today is a special day. Amula and the others are watching the ceremony. They are located halfway up the mountain. They can see it more clearly. Almost everyone in the village is here.
Because today, the army is going to go to war! The general who accepted His Highness's order from Chang'an has arrived, and 20,000 troops will set off from here to conquer Mangbu and Wangbu!
In fact, the entire Xinbu Township no longer hates the enemy so much, including the families of the five sacrificed tribesmen.
We can’t blame them for having no vision, nor can we blame them for being ruthless. Because in the past, this was the environment they had grown up in. In these deep mountains and old forests, death always came too easily, whether it was an accident or a fight.
As relatives, they are equally sad, but they are also actually numb. Everyone has encountered the death of their loved ones due to accidents. Over time, everyone has even become accustomed to it.
The previous hatred and pain was caused by the murder of relatives and the destruction of homes.
Now, homes are always being rebuilt, relatives cannot return to this world, and life always has to go on. More importantly, war kills people. The lives of your relatives are lives, but the lives of these Tang soldiers are not. ?
They did not want any of these soldiers who sincerely helped them to die in battle and be unable to return to the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, the family members of these murdered villagers found the village chief, hoping that he could talk to these generals. There is no need to avenge them, as long as they ensure that the enemy does not invade them, so as to avoid more soldiers dying because of them. .
But they failed in the end. General Hou Junji, the general of the Tang Dynasty who had just arrived, did not tell them more, but only told them a few words.
First, they are all soldiers, and it is the duty of soldiers to obey orders, and the orders are given by His Highness the King of Qin and they have no right to change them.
Second, His Highness the King of Qin said that those who dare to violate the power of the Tang Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are. Not to mention killing five people of the Tang Dynasty, even if they only injured one person of the Tang Dynasty, they must be made to answer!
Just these two sentences made these family members burst into tears. When they went there, they were very entangled in their hearts. They wanted to avenge their relatives, but they did not want the soldiers to sacrifice.
And when they got this answer, they couldn't tell how they felt, and they had mixed feelings in their hearts. However, when these families came back, they found Amula, hoping that their children could join the militia for training, and then wait. After meeting the age limit, join the army!
"Woo..." The melodious sound of horns resounded through the valley. In the military camp below, neatly lined up soldiers had stepped out of the camp neatly. The long queue followed the road in the valley like an endless dragon. To meet the enemies of Tang Dynasty.
And this place will not be abandoned, because it will become a frontline logistics base, and there will still be five thousand soldiers stationed here.
