Of course, another aspect of the human heart is sinister and greedy.

"Shi Yuan, I give you the scepter..." Fei Qian looked back and said, "If anyone takes advantage of a natural disaster to gain personal gain, ignore the overall situation, and force the common people to sell their fields... Once verified, they will be killed."

amnesty!"

Pang Tong looked upright and answered: "I obey the order!"

When a natural disaster strikes, it is often the time when big landowners celebrate the most. Just like the stock market crash in later generations, retail investors mourn but institutions become fat.

People's selfish desires are never-ending, so Fei Qian cannot place his hopes on the so-called "benevolence, justice and morality" of these gentry and landlord class. Those who should be warned in advance should warn in advance. If someone really dares to make a fortune by taking advantage of natural disasters and commit crimes against the wind, he should not do it.

The weirdo would use it to scare the monkeys.

In addition to domestic problems, Feiqian also has external problems.

As Feiqian, whose current territory is all inland, is actually quite eager to have an outlet to the sea, and Yuyang is obviously more suitable for such needs. It has salt and iron, and is close to the sea. If you get Yuyang, it means

After two or three years of operation, Feiqian can form a maritime army, start trying transoceanic trade, and even conduct long-range naval strikes.

but now……

Xun You looked up at Fei Qian, then at Pang Tong.

Pang Tong frowned slightly.

Xun You hesitated for a moment, coughed again, and asked: "My lord, so far north..."

Fei Qian and Pang Tong Xun You had discussed this issue before, but Fei Qian had never made up his mind.

Fei Qian was silent for a while and sighed.

Pang Tong and Xun You glanced at each other, then remained silent, obviously helpless.

In the distance, many people began to use flying hammers to pound wooden piles. The loud pounding sounds and labor chants could be heard clearly even from the city wall.

With more people, the original benefit should be that it is powerful.

Powerful enough to change some originally tragic fates,

Just like this land in Guanzhong, it must have been a world of wild beasts and a garden of birds at the beginning, but now that Fei Qian is standing here, he can no longer hear the roars of wild beasts and the noise of birds.

This is a question of advance and retreat.

The wild boars that were wandering around in the wilderness disappeared, and the leopards hiding in the grass disappeared. They had to hide far away, go into the mountains and forests, and give up the plump land to humans.

What is the scariest animal in the world?

The answer is people.

Fei Qian couldn't talk about this issue from an academic level. He could only judge from the reality before him. People can't fly, they can't run horses, their claws can't compare to tigers and leopards, and their teeth can't compare to even wild boars. But everything around them is...

It is human territory, and no animal can compete with humans.

And what is the most terrifying thing among humans?

The answer is hunger.

Fei Qian still remembers the scene in Chang'an when refugees were everywhere, looking like walking corpses in the wilderness. Even the bark and grass roots were dug out, and a piece of cake could be exchanged for a human life.

"Retreat!"

Feiqian sighed.

"My lord is wise..." Xun You said with his hands raised. Xun You's advice was to be more conservative.

"My lord, think twice!" Pang Tong said with a frown. Pang Tong meant that he could take some risks.

Xun You is not wrong. From the perspective of people's livelihood, Xun You said that after capturing Yuyang, not only must Yuyang be protected, but if the weather turns bad, a large-scale refugee wave will inevitably occur.

The earth will be under new and huge pressure. Under such circumstances, continuing to maintain a long supply line is asking for death. It is better to abandon Yuyang and stabilize ourselves first.

Pang Tong was not wrong. Pang Tong considered it from a strategic perspective. Yuyang is undoubtedly the foothold of Youbei. With Yuyang, the entire Youzhou can be regarded as revitalized. And if the climate in Guanzhong is like this, then the same is true for Jizhou and Yuzhou.

He would suffer the same disaster, and if he gave up conquering Yuyang at this time, not only would all the previous preparations have been wasted, but it would also give Cao Cao time to breathe.

The choice belongs to Feiqian.

Fei Qian finally chose to be conservative.

After fighting until now, Fei Qian is not willing to retreat when he has an advantage. But the problem is that after defeating, he must defend. If he doesn't defend, then why bother to fight? But if you really want to defend Yuyang, from the current point of view,

, will be a very difficult thing.

Obviously, after the capture of Yuyang, Yuyang cannot quickly return to self-sufficiency, at least within one or two years, that is, one or two seasons of harvest, so it must require a large amount of supplies in the early stage.

Whether these supplies of food and grass are transferred from Yinshan to Changshan, and then from Changshan to Yuyang, or from Shangdang to Taiyuan, and then from Taihang Mountain to Changshan, and then to Yuyang, even though the journey is long on weekdays, it is not

It is unacceptable, but if there is a comprehensive disaster and both the north and the south are in trouble, we have to squeeze out money and food for long-distance transportation...

Another aspect of the problem is that the Little Glacier climate affects not only Fei Qian, but also the nomadic peoples in the desert. Under the hardship of hunger and cold, if Fei Qian wants to maintain the safety of such a long supply line, how much energy will it have to invest?

People, materials and finance?

"Retreat. The reason for this is that when Zilong Zhongda was there, a certain person wrote a letter to inform..." Fei Qian waved his hand and said. Although doing this is indeed more depressing, what can be done? Keep the person first, and as for the

There will naturally be opportunities for Yuyang in the future. If you cannot retain people, even if you take Yuyang, you may lose it in the future.

The higher you are in a high position, the more careful you have to be.

After all, a single order can affect tens of millions of families.

Some things, even the most profound pain or memories, will slowly fade and become blurred over time. In the end, one day you may not be able to remember anything at all, leaving only a scar, but desire is

It will not disappear over time, and may even become more and more thirsty and intense.

Fei Qian wanted to control the greed of the gentry and landlord class under his rule, and at the same time he also had to control his own desires, but making such a choice was still a very difficult thing.

It is difficult to choose, but it is necessary to choose. After all, between the choices, there is the whole world.

This time it may be a nationwide climate change. It is naturally impossible to avoid it in Guanzhong Sanfu, and it may even affect Sichuan and Sichuan. Hmm. Fei Qian suddenly remembered that some people have no idea what will happen to the Little Ice Age in the future.
