After two days, Xu Qing doesn't plan to let the little Dragonfly out of the house. The temperature difference between the inside and outside is too big, so it's easy to get sick. When Huier wants to see her sister, she will let Huier come to her yard by herself.
A Ying asked: "is everything arranged outside?"
Xu Qing stretched his waist: "well, all the arrangements have been made. Finally, we can begin to have a happy cat winter."
Heavy snow, everywhere is covered with silver, a desolate, the whole world because of the cold into silence.
However, this year some people are destined to miss the happy cat winter.
Xu Qing is not sensitive to the news from the outside world. At dinner, Li Changting told her that war broke out in several small countries around her this year, so that many people were displaced and came to DAHAO for help.
The most common way to deal with foreign victims is to ignore them, because there are so many cases of surrender and betrayal in history. How can one's own people have the spare power to take care of others when they are still in difficulties.
Because of the successive blizzards, some of these victims were frozen to death and starved to death every day. In the past, when he was rich, although DAHAO would not accept these alien people, he would also provide some help without harming his own interests.
But now DAHAO hasn't completely recovered from the natural disaster. His family is still in a tight situation. There is no surplus food and materials to save others.
Although it is pitiful, it is helpless.
However, things soon turned around, and everyone did not expect that at this time, situ Xiao would open the gate to welcome the victims!
As soon as situ Xiao was kind-hearted, more than 50000 victims rushed to the border city of Yuzhou.
The small countries in which the war broke out were originally located in the northwest, the closest to Yuzhou. Situ Xiao was very kind and saved many people.
As enemies, Li Changting and the king of Beiling had to doubt situ Xiao's enigmatic operation.
Everyone is thinking about a question. Does situ Xiao have so much food to support so many victims?
"There is no doubt that situ Xiao's purpose is to attract people." At lunch, Li Changting said, "although situ Xiao was forced to revolt in a hurry, he has been planning for many years. He must have prepared enough supplies for the army. At least he can supply his own people. However, more than 50000 victims are not a small number, which is equal to the number of the valiant army."
Xu Qing frowned and asked, "how about the grain reserves in the border city?"
Li Changting: "the total population of the border city is about 80000. The government's grain reserves should not be much. Even if situ Xiao takes over the granary and collects grain in the city, he can only support more than 50000 people for one month at most."
Xu Qing: "situ Xiao forcibly occupied this city. Will he be kind to the people in the city? If the people don't want to collect grain, will he rob them? What should the people in the city do when they don't have enough food for the winter? "
Li Changting: "I'm not worried about this. I'm afraid situ Xiao will drive out the people in the city in order to accept the victims. It's not his people. Situ Xiao has never been soft hearted."
Xu Qingmu was stunned, but it made sense to think about it.
The people in the border city are all the people of DAHAO. Now situ Xiao has occupied the border city, which makes the border city seem to betray DAHAO. The people in the city will surely be discontented and panic. After all, there is no precedent for slaughtering the rebels in history.
The people in the border town are so innocent that they didn't want to betray their country. Now they are suppressed by situ Xiao's army. But after all, these people are not Si Tu Xiao's people. It's certain that they have different ideas. Si Tu Xiao must have thought about the situation that the people in the city will cooperate with the enemy in the future.
If there is no sense of security in the place where they live, how can the soldiers at the bottom have a good sleep? Moreover, as the weather gets colder, the soldiers can't bear to patrol and watch the city people day and night, which is a waste of manpower and material resources.
If he could not submit to them, there was no need for situ Xiao to exist.
Slaughter is impossible. Even for the sake of his reputation as emperor in the future, he can't slaughter innocent people at this time. Although he is ambitious, he is not so cruel and cold-blooded.
Just expel the people who have different intentions. These people will naturally go to Yuzhou City for help, and they can also make some trouble for Li Changting.
It can be said that Li Changting had a thorough understanding of situ Xiao's thoughts. As soon as he said that situ Xiao might drive away the people in the city, situ Xiao was already making arrangements.
Situ Xiao advertised and informed people from door to door that those who did not intend to obey him would leave the border town within one day. But once they left, they could only take personal belongings, three-day grain and a small amount of thick clothes, which could ensure that they would not starve and freeze to death when they arrived at the enemy barracks or Yuzhou City.
Situ Xiaoman thought he was humane. Although the people in the border town would hate him in the end, he was a rare generous Lord in the history books.
Li Changting personally led 30000 cavalry troops to the border town and sent envoys there.
Before the gate of situ Xiao's side was opened, I heard that Li Changting had come to meet him. In an instant, situ Xiao almost killed the envoy angrily. What he hated most was that Li Changting could find out his ideas everywhere!But this time, just like countless times before, situ Xiao had to bear his anger and let Li Changting take him away.
Most of the victims are young and strong men, young women and children, which are much better than those in the city.
After all, situ Xiao also had a trace of impatience. He had vowed to defend this border town, and the people here were also the people he sheltered.
It's not popular to give in and suppress by violence. In the final analysis, situ Xiao didn't trust these people, so it's better to count the foreigners who came to make him feel at ease.
When the people in the city heard that DAHAO's army came to meet them, they almost danced with joy. Except for a few people who wanted to submit to situ Xiao, most of them left the border city with a heavy burden under heavy inspection.
It's not because of their loyalty to DAHAO that they can leave their warm and comfortable home in this bad weather, but because they know the end of the rebellion. If situ Xiao accepts more victims, they are likely to starve to death.
Situ Xiao asked the victims to rob them of food, which was tantamount to killing them. Anyway, if you look left and right, you can't live in the border town. It's better to gamble. At least from the previous style of the imperial court, you won't give up these ordinary people.
Now there is also Yin Xiang in the court, most people are still full of hope for going to Yuzhou City, not to mention now DAHAO's soldiers to escort them, let them feel full of security.
