In fact, what he was most worried about was that after the establishment of the country, the various princes would completely cut off all contact with each other.
After all, Luoyang, Ruyang, Pingyang and Nanyang together only have 2.8 million people, which is still a big gap compared with other forces.
"However, there is one more thing that needs to be addressed, Lord!"
After a pause, Dan Qiusheng on the side spoke again.
"Sir, it's okay to say it."
"Lord, what I expected is true. In a few days, no matter in Luoyang, Nanyang or even Pingyang, many merchants and people will rush to Ruyang to settle down. I'm afraid we still need to be prepared."
Dan Qiusheng touched his beard.
This is common sense!
However, although the stalls in Ruyang are now quite large, the actual population is only 150,000 or 60,000. It may not be a good thing to have too many people influx all at once.
"People from the other three places enter Ruyang?"
Li Mo frowned, then turned to look at the God of Wine, Zhang Xu.
"Sir, I wonder when the outer city wall will be completed?"
Zhang Xu and Gongshu Ban have been responsible for the construction of the outer city wall. Li Mo is not very clear about many details. He can only see that the city wall is slightly higher than the previous day every day.
"My lord, the main body of the city wall will be completely completed by the day after tomorrow at the latest. The outer city wall will be put into use after the main body is completed. The courtyard building on the city wall can be slowly built in the future."
The God of Wine Zhang Xu immediately replied.
This time,
No one knows better than him how strong the city walls of Ruyang are.
That is to say, the master-level Gongshu Ban is in charge. If it were other craftsmen, it would be impossible to repair Ruyang's city wall in one or two years.
"The day after tomorrow? Okay! Let's go to the city wall together the day after tomorrow. As long as it can be used, it won't be a big problem even if there are people pouring in."
Li Mo nodded.
Now all the people in Ruyang Old City have moved out, and the guards at the four gates of the old city have been replaced.
Except for the people who still need to come to the county government to complain, the people who work for Yibo Tower, and the people from Yuntianzhuang, there are very few people activities in the inner city anymore.
"Yes, my lord!"
"Lord, there is one more thing that needs to be resolved."
After discussing the matter of people from other three counties entering the city, Dan Qiusheng said again.
"Sir, please speak."
"Now that the lord is the leader of the party, it would be inappropriate if he continues to deal with trivial matters in Ruyang City! We still need to recruit some more talents to manage the county."
Dan Qiusheng bowed slightly.
The situation is now very clear. As long as other forces have established their own countries, Ruyang will definitely be no exception.
By then, we cannot let our lord go to trial cases every day like the county magistrate.
"What you said makes sense. I wonder if you have a suitable candidate?"
Li Mo paused.
In fact, he had already thought of what Dan Qiusheng said.
There are more and more things happening now, and the people in Ruyang City are already too busy with lawsuits, etc. They have to go back and forth to the clay mine every day, which is extremely tiring.
As for Master Zeng and Dan Qiusheng?
The two men are overqualified and underqualified in governing Ruyang. They are left prime ministers. How can they be allowed to be the leader of Ruyang with their talents as right prime ministers?
"This... we don't have a suitable candidate for the time being!"
Looking at each other, Master Zeng and Dan Qiusheng shook their heads slightly.
Regardless of Yibo Tower or Yuntianzhuang, basically all of their subordinates are warriors, military generals, and not many scribes.
It’s just Zhao Hai, he still needs to be in Luoyang next time.
"That's all... let's take care of the talent matters slowly. Let's stabilize the situation first. If that doesn't work, we can build a new Gongyuan and recruit some talents and scribes."
After pacing back and forth for a moment, Li Mo said.
Talent matters are not as simple as coming up with an idea, sometimes it also requires a bit of luck.
"yes!"
.......
The sun rises and sets, and a few days pass in the blink of an eye.
As time went by, there were many voices condemning and insulting An Lushan, but the imagined war did not break out.
Just as Li Mo, Master Zeng and others expected, all the forces had an unprecedented tacit understanding and stationed troops at the regional borders of various places.
Tubo officially incorporated Longxi County into its territory. The 200,000 Heshuo Army from Anlu Mountain settled in Qinzhou, and Shi Siming's army controlled Fanyang, Pinglu and other areas that were the original three counties of Anlu Mountain.
Guo Ziyi's 150,000 Hedong Army stood still and continued to be entrenched in the Taiyuan area to oppose Shi Siming's forces.
The remaining ones are Yang Guozhong's Jiannan Army and Xiangyang King Li Feng, as well as the one hundred thousand Lingnan Army brother Shu Han.
Li Guangbi's 150,000 Shuofang army settled in Liangzhou, led by Li Xuan, king of Liang.
Moreover, there was also movement on Gao Xianzhi’s side of the Anxi Army.
He also rushed to Liangzhou with an army of 200,000. As expected, the King of Liang should be the strongest among the princes in terms of strength and geographical location.
If we only count military strength, Li Mo and Xiangyang King Li Feng are the two weakest.
However, these ordinary people don't care too much,
It doesn't make much difference to them who becomes the emperor. After all, Li Longji's performance was average.
But no one can stop the migration trend.
After the spheres of influence were redefined, the places where the various princes were located became popular in the eyes of the people and merchants.
On the official road, you can see people migrating and moving anytime and anywhere.
hour to noon,
The official road to Ruyang was already full of people.
Unlike other princes who moved directly, the people who went to Ruyang were relatively conservative. They wanted to visit Ruyang first. If Ruyang was not as good as the original county, there was no need to move.
Except for the common people,
There were two pairs of horses and men marching side by side on the official road. There were officers and soldiers in front of the team to clear the way, and the battle was not small.
At the same time, the curtains of the two carriages moving side by side were lifted at the same time, and the people inside were still chatting with each other.
The team on the left is the magistrate of Pingyang County, Gao Wu, and the team on the right is the magistrate of Nanyang County, Zhang Ze!
Ever since they learned that Li Longji and the prince had been beheaded, they had made an appointment to come to Ruyang to meet Li Mo.
no way,
They were just the head of a county, with dozens of police officers and hundreds of soldiers under their command. They could not even think of being independent with such strength and could only rely on others.
Before that, the two of them had already sent an official document to Li Mo, and Li Mo also sent a reply.
"Actually...my lord, it is better to sit in Ruyang than in Dongdu! Dongdu is so prosperous..."
Looking at the pedestrians on both sides of the road, Gao Wu touched his beard and said.
"That's right. In ancient dynasties, many emperors made Luoyang their capital, which shows how suitable Luoyang is... but it just doesn't happen..."
On the opposite side, Zhang Ze also spoke in agreement.
before that,
They all thought that Li Mo would sit in Luoyang and make Luoyang the capital, but in the end it was still Ruyang.
This made the two of them very puzzled.
In their eyes, Luoyang is many times stronger than Ruyang and has a population of millions. It is a big city! Ruyang is incomparable.
"Oh, I really don't know what our new master is thinking. Not to mention Luoyang, even Pingyang, Nanyang is much better than Ruyang."
After a pause, Pingyang County Magistrate Gao Wu said again.
