Chapter 1021 Lian Wu destroys Liu
Things have two sides, and nothing is perfect.

There is a reason why the solution that the people can learn from it but not know it can be passed on for more than two years.

In feudal society, what kind of living standard is best for the common people to maintain?
Facts have proved to be food and clothing line.

This sounds absurd. Isn't it good for the people to live and work in peace and contentment?

Yes, not good.

In fact, Wang Xuan himself understood this point.

As for the reasons, there are many reasons. The first is that the land area is limited. There is only so much arable land, and all of it cannot be used to grow food. Not to mention the problem of crop rotation, economic crops such as mulberry, cotton, and hemp also need arable land. Therefore, the population that can be fed is limited after all.

When the limit is reached or close to the limit, once there is a natural or man-made disaster, it will inevitably form a sweeping trend, and then it will be a doomed end, and there will be no eggs under the nest.

In ancient times when there were no new food crops, chemical fertilizers, etc., the best way to continue the rule was to let the people live below the food and clothing line. Hunger was the most effective way to control the population. Otherwise, no empire could last for more than 50 years.

Take the Great Han Dynasty as an example. Before the arrival of Wang Xuan, the maximum population that could be supported during the peak period of the Great Han Dynasty was no more than 7000 million. It was developed only to be broken.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, due to the sharp drop in population due to wars, the population was only about 1300 million when the Western Han Dynasty was established.

Under such circumstances, if the common people live well, even if there is no improvement in the level of medical care, the population will triple to about 60 million in the Hanwu period 4000 years later.

Were the people of the Han Dynasty prosperous?
No, so, if the people are really rich, it only takes 50 years for my Chinese people to break through an empire.

This kind of simple mathematical problem will not trouble those wise men in ancient times. In the ancient times without family planning, the only way is to let the people live on the line of food and clothing, so that they cannot reproduce wantonly. In this way, whether it is natural disasters or man-made disasters, It can consume the population to a certain extent.

Afterwards, disaster relief is all that is needed. Even if there is a rebellion, it is usually on a small scale and can be easily extinguished. If it is controlled a little bit, it may consume a little more.

This sounds very cruel, but the fact is that there are too many people to feed, and the ruler can't just pull people out to kill a batch every time before the limit is reached, right?

That's a tyrant, so so what if he doesn't.

This is also the reason why members of Cao Cao's family are not optimistic about Liu Bei and Wang Xuan.

It's not that everyone doesn't know about many things, and it's not that they haven't tried to change them, but when manpower is limited.

In addition, people go to high places and water flows to low places. Now you have made the people rich, but when the population soars to a certain level in a short period of time?

The quality of life will inevitably be reduced, and there will be rebellion at that time, and the intensity will be even higher.

Another point is that when the positive life is rich, people will pursue more things, which will inevitably lead to more social conflicts. These things are the key factors that destroy a country.

Among other things, the problem of wanting to go up the channel when you are full, just a conflict between a poor family and an aristocratic family is enough troublesome, and it may not be a good thing for everyone to study.

Of course, these are based on the inability to expand the size of the empire. The problem is that in Wang Xuan's eyes, these do not exist.

The world is big, I want to occupy it!

What about the yellow peril?

How to make the world harmonious?
How to make the world free from racial discrimination?
It's very simple, there is only one color in the world!

As for the aftermath, that is not what Wang Xuan needs to consider.

……

Back to the point, in the eyes of Xun You and others, the current Liu Beifang is a huge monster that looks beautiful, and at the moment this monster is cocooning, trying to use this shell to protect itself for the last step of evolution, once it is completed, it can soar into the sky , but this moment is also when the monster is weakest.

If it can be pierced in one fell swoop, it will definitely kill the monster, and return the family to a bright future. At worst, it will have to make a huge hole in the shell, and let the monster bleed to death through bloodletting.

Now, through Xun Yu let everyone see the urgency of the situation clearly, and through Xun You unified everyone's thinking, Cao Cao slowly stood up, his eyes swept across everyone's faces, and he said in a low and firm voice: "The tyrant Liu Bei's strategy has never been done since ancient times, and it is actually a harm to all people in the world. At this critical moment, the people of insight in the world are all working together to overcome difficulties, and there must be no excuses."

"You must know that this world is not dominated by one person, but by tens of thousands of people. There will be no eggs under the nest. If you don't move, you will move like thunder. If you can't kill with one blow, there will be no chance."

Cao Cao did not say this as the owner, but from the perspective of the family. In fact, Cao Cao was most worried about the fact that the families always wanted to preserve some strength.

If you want to be with Liu Bei and Wang Xuan, can you keep your strength?

Not to mention that the poor family supports Cao Cao, at least they should do their best to support him.

Looking at the entire Three Kingdoms, except for the Mi family who broke their family to support Liu Bei in order to get rid of their status as merchants, no one has ever done this, but they are surrounded by top-notch families.

In the final analysis, apart from the combination of Liu Bei and Wang Xuan, the enemy of the family is still the family.

"Don't worry, my lord, we will work together to fight Liu Bei to the death!" Xun Yu took the lead, and everyone came out to salute Cao Cao at the same time.

I hope you understand. Cao Cao didn’t say anything more. After all, the aristocratic family has a way out, as long as the Jingzhou aristocratic family does not do stupid things, such as the Xun family and the Chen family and other top aristocratic families are willing to give up most of their rights and go to Liu Bei. Liu Bei Impossible not to charge.

In the end, it wasn't that Liu Bei or Wang Xuan couldn't tolerate them, it was that they were unwilling to give up.

After the monarch and his ministers made an agreement, Chen Qun went out and said: "Report to the lord, the subordinates suggest that we contact Soochow for joint action on this matter. Soochow just died of Zhu Ran, and internal conflicts have intensified. They need a channel to vent. Talk to Liu Bei. Going to war again can repay Sun Ce's determination, and it will also make the Soochow family speechless."

"Furthermore, the matter of killing Liu is not a matter of our family. Soochow must contribute if it does not want to be helpless in the end."

"Mr. Wen is right. Even Sun Zailiu can share a lot of pressure for our army." Xun You also echoed.

"Then what can you bring out? Soochow doesn't work in vain." This is the real thing. The enemy is the enemy, and the interests are the interests. This point must be clearly distinguished.

"Give Jingnan to him." Cao Cao said directly: "Isn't Dongwu known as the number one naval division, then let them be fulfilled, and the upper reaches of the river will also be sent to them. I would like to see whose water is owned by the Sun and Liu families." The teacher is more profitable!"
