Chapter 2504 Closing the Border ([-])

Sure enough, just as Jun Lintian expected, it didn't take long for the court of Hou Chu to abandon the people of the ten border cities and spread like wildfire, sweeping the entire Hou Chu like a whirlwind.

For a while, the people of Hou Chu were panicked.

If a country has no way to provide shelter to the people, and even sacrifices them in exchange for some benefits to satisfy the desires of certain special classes, how can such a country give the people a sense of security? !

For the people, what they want most is an environment where they can live and work in peace and contentment, and a country where they can live without worrying all day long.

Before Tantai Rui died, the people of Hou Chu were lucky.

After Tantai Rui's death, everything changed.

In order to compete for the position of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, and mine to gain supreme power, they can only be the objects of sacrifice!
The restlessness of the common people was soon known to the ruling class.

"What did you say? There have been a large number of refugees flocking to Datang, Liang Guo and Nanyue?"

"Yes! During this period of time, more than [-] people have fled one after another. And I don't know who is fanning the flames among the people, saying that Hou Chu is about to subjugate the country, and the people of Hou Chu are about to become subjugated slaves, so they to run away in a hurry.”

Subjugate? !

This term made everyone's heart tremble.

They all knew in their hearts that if they continued to entangle like this, they would become precarious without the oppression of the Jin Dynasty.

However, they have already reached such a point, how can they give up! ?
Hold on!
Persevere and they will achieve their goals!
This tacit understanding was quietly formed among several big heads, and everyone ignored the core of Hou Chu's gradual decline, and they turned their fingertips elsewhere.

"Damn it! Who is scaremongering here?! Has it been found out?" Someone roared.

"No, the other party is very cunning, we can't catch them at all."

"Damn it, this is obviously a conspiracy by some people to shake the foundation of our country and the hearts of the people. We must find a way to deal with it."

"How?" After a long silence, Hubu Shangshu suddenly said: "If that's the case, then close the country! Anyone who wants to go out from Houchu must have a document, otherwise it will be regarded as treason and will be killed without pardon!"

"This……"

Everyone present was stunned.

Is this approach really effective?
Shouldn't they try their best to refute the rumors?

But... the most ridiculous thing is that they can't refute the rumors at all, because what the "rumors" say is the truth.

Because of the problem of military pay, they could only ignore the people of the ten cities.

"My lord seconded the proposal!"

"My lord also agrees!"

……

In the approval of "secondary proposals", Hou Chu closed the external borders.

However, such a move undoubtedly stimulated the people of Hou Chu who were already frightened.

Since it is impossible to leave the country, the safest place is the capital Xiliang!
In an instant, people from all over the country began to rush to Xiliang, some defected to relatives, and some begged along the way.

And all of this is just to save his own life.

However, such a wave of refugees undoubtedly increased the burden on Xiliang, affected the normal operation of the entire Xiliang city, and flooded the streets in the city with refugees, which was rather self-defeating.
