Chapter 271: Southern Daoist Temple_3

The entire financial situation of Su Country was mired in this vicious cycle.

However, if Su Xuange wanted to cut down the army, he dared not.

It was not easy to put down the rebellion, absorb the elites from those rebels into the army, and strictly control them. If you cut down their army now and send them back to the local area, those people would lose their livelihood and income. What do you think they would do?

It would be good if they just turned to banditry in the mountains.

For those who are more daring, is it not possible that they would kill officials and gather people and rebel, seizing cities again?

By then, Su Country would have to go through another rebellion.

It is precisely for this reason that, even though he knew he could no longer afford the financial burden, Su Xuange had to grit his teeth and accept those rebels.

Once the people were brought in, their income problem had to be solved.
