Datang: I was tricked by the system

"I didn't expect this guy to be so powerful, it seems that I really underestimated him."

Li Deyu quietly followed behind Li Yi, seeing with his own eyes that Li Yi found one after another surviving refugees, he couldn't help muttering.

"It goes without saying that our Emperor Yi is the most powerful." Wu Mei appeared next to Li Deyu at some point, looked at Li Yi, and said proudly. "A good bird chooses a tree to live in. If you are willing to follow Emperor Yi, I would like to give you a few words of kindness."

"Why are you here?" Wu Mei's appearance surprised Li Deyu.

"Of course I'm here to save people." After Wu Mei finished speaking, she followed Li Yi regardless of Li Deyu's reaction.

She remembered her current identity very clearly, if it wasn't for Li Jing's talent, she would never have said a word to Li Deyu.

But how to choose is up to him.

Seeing Wu Mei leave, Li Deyu didn't take it seriously, he didn't want to do things with that guy Li Yi.

……

Xue Rengui led his troops to search for ten days before finding the rest of the people or corpses. Those who should settle down have already been settled, and the corpses have also been processed. The places where the refugees live are disinfected every day to prevent There is a plague.

But the weather was cold at this time, and even with supplies such as cotton coats, many people still fell ill due to the dual reasons of being frightened and losing their loved ones.

Fortunately, You Tang has already sent many medical students from the medical school, even Sun Simiao, the dean of the medical school, came in person, together with some local doctors, the treatment work can be carried out in an orderly manner.

"Report to Your Majesty, Duke Lu of the Great Tang Dynasty, Cheng Yaojin, is already outside the city with his troops and supplies, and will arrive here in about half an hour."

Li Yi nodded, "Well, just tell the soldiers to observe discipline and do their own things well."

"Yes!" Xue Wanche took the order to retreat.

After Li Jing heard the news, he led Li Deyu out of the city on horseback to meet Cheng Yaojin. When the two met, Cheng Yaojin was shocked, "General Li, why are you here?"

Li Jing smiled bitterly, especially when he saw Cheng Yaojin's 5 horses and the not-so-large amount of food and supplies, the smile on his face became even more bitter.

At the same time, he secretly rejoiced that if Emperor Yi hadn't rescued him in time, Cheng Ji's population would not have survived this disaster.

In the past ten days or so, Emperor Yi has led his people to rescue all the victims and made arrangements for settlement, while the troops from Datang have only arrived late.

"To be honest, I have been here for more than ten days." Li Jing replied with restrained emotions.

"Oh? The general was ordered by His Majesty? I don't know what the disaster is like here? Have the people been settled safely?"

Hearing Li Jing's words, Cheng Yaojin felt relieved, and asked quickly.

Li Jing nodded, "Don't worry, Lord Lu, the people have already made arrangements."

"Very good, very good." Cheng Yaojin nodded again and again, "I brought food and supplies, which will be distributed to the common people."

"This..." Li Jing looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid it won't be needed."

Yihuang has already arranged everything, food, clothing, housing and transportation are much more luxurious than these things in front of him, if not, the day lily will be cold when Cheng Yaojin arrives.

"Duke Wei came here on purpose, but do you have something to say?" Cheng Yaojin is not stupid. Li Jing has been puzzling since Tuyuhun appeared in Cheng Jiben. He has such a bitter expression, presumably something happened to him do not know things.

The reason why he didn't ask was because he felt that the timing was wrong.

But now, he told himself, it was strange that the refugees didn't need these things.

"Could it be because of Emperor Yi?"

The only person he could guess and connect with was Li Yi.

Li Jing nodded and told Cheng Yaojin what happened these days.

After Cheng Yaojin listened, his eyes widened, "Yihuang is so generous?"

"In comparison, the things I brought are indeed too shabby." Cheng Yaojin looked at the food and supplies he brought, and smiled wryly.

"Let's not talk about it, advance into the city, Emperor Yi helped the people of Tang Dynasty, we should thank you." After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, the smile on Li Jing's face became more and more bitter.

This incident really made that boy Deyu right.

Because of the catastrophe, the common people already blamed His Majesty. No matter how Emperor Yi descended into the world like a god, saving the common people from suffering, and taking care of them in all aspects, how could the common people still think about their Majesty in their hearts.

Long ago, he acquiesced that he was Li Yi's subject.

But Li Jing couldn't tell the truth about this matter, so he didn't speak up.

……

"Your Majesty, the rescue work has been completed, shall we evacuate or stay?"

Xue Rengui, Xue Wanche, and Shan Xian all stood in front of Li Yi, waiting for Li Yi's next arrangement.

"Help people to the end, send Buddha to the west, since we're here, we can't ignore them, besides..." Li Yi's tone paused, "I like the Longyou area very much."

As far as Li Yi clicked, Xue Rengui, Shan Xian and the others understood what he meant.

"I'm going to arrange for the soldiers to rebuild their homes for the people."

"No!"

Li Yi raised his hand to stop it. Although rebuilding a favorite Longyou area is very exciting, they have already helped the people a lot.

If even the construction of the homeland is done by them, it will only go too far.

The gratitude in the hearts of the people will gradually become a matter of course.

"Wouldn't it be better for them to build a new home of their own?" Only when the refugees get busy, find the hope of living, and find their own value, will they strive to survive.

Xue Rengui and Shan Xian looked at each other and understood Li Yi's intentions, "Your Majesty wants to use work for relief?"

Li Yi nodded, "Pay wages and provide subsidies, but the post-disaster reconstruction must mobilize the refugees. On the one hand, we can preserve our troops, and on the other hand, we can prevent the refugees from causing chaos due to their idleness."

"Besides, there is one more thing I need you to do." After Li Yi finished speaking, he gave Xue Rengui a blueprint, "I want you to recruit workers to build a road from the Longyou area to the grasslands, passing through Tubo, and the Tianshan Mountains." official way."

It was also during the earthquake that Li Yi suddenly realized the necessity of such a road.

Building a road to connect the five places of East Turkic, Western Turkic, Tuyuhun, Tubo, and Longyou regions will not only facilitate the assembly of troops, but also facilitate access to the Western Regions.

At that time, whether it is marching and fighting, or controlling the Silk Road, it will become much easier.

Therefore, this path is very important and necessary!
