Capital Datang

ww.x.om The south of the Silla Royal Palace was originally an open space, but now a row of simple houses has been built. There are many Silla officials working in it. This is the newly established household registration management office.On the outer wall of the house of the household registration management office, there are many windows, and there are long queues lined up at the windows, most of them are Jincheng people who come to register, and there are also many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty maintaining order.

On the tall city wall of the palace, Li Yin and Jin Shengman sat side by side, quietly watching the people of Silla below.It's just that one is smiling, and the other is full of worry.

The smiling face is naturally Li Yin. He has been in Jincheng for a while, and his control over Silla is steadily increasing. The recruitment plan that has been prepared for a long time has finally begun to be officially implemented. It can be said that everything is according to him. The previous plan is carried out, and after Silla is fully grasped, it will be Baekje's turn.

However, Jin Shengman was a little worried. Although she also agreed to the recruitment, she was mainly forced by the food shortage. In order to avoid large-scale starvation, she had to agree to Li Yin's recruitment plan. It's just that she still has some doubts about Li Yin's character. She is worried that after these Silla people are recruited away, they will be sold as slaves by Li Yin like those slave hunting teams in the past. After all, the guy next to him is Datang's biggest slave head.

But no matter how worried Jin Shengman was, it was useless. She could only pin all her hopes on Li Yin's character, so she sighed and forced her attention away from the job recruitment. He opened his mouth and said, "Your Highness, do you have any news about Jin Gengxin and Jin Chunqiu?" Capital Datang 320

When Li Yin, who was full of ambition, heard Jin Shengman asked about this matter, his face was a little annoyed, and he said in a bitter tone: "Since they left Dingchuan City, there has been no definite news, but according to As far as I know, they have already gone south, and they are likely to flee to Baekje. The reason why they disappeared a while ago is mainly because most of the generals at the checkpoints along the way to the south are direct descendants of Kim Gengshin. Together, we helped Jin Gengxin to conceal his whereabouts, which made it impossible for us to hear about them."

The last time Li Yin sent people to hunt down Jin Gengxin and Jin Chunqiu, they escaped into Dingchuan City by only half a step. At that time, the 3000 light cavalry led by Hu Li could not attack the city at all.We had to wait until the infantry behind arrived, but at that time Jin Gengxin and Jin Chunqiu fled again, and there was no news of this escape, as if the [-] people disappeared out of thin air.

At first, Li Yin was a little strange about this situation. After all, they were three thousand elite soldiers, so how could there be no news?It wasn't until these two days that he used Wu Meiniang's intelligence channel in Xinluobu that he discovered that it was the generals at the checkpoint on the way to the south who were at fault. After all, Jin Gengxin had been in charge of the military for many years, and most of the generals were his direct descendants. These people banded together to help him conceal it.Naturally, Li Yin couldn't get any news.

Jin Shengman's face sank when he heard the news, although she knew that Jin Gengxin had a high prestige in the military.But he didn't expect that so many generals in his country were willing to take risks to conceal the news for him. From this point of view, if Jin Gengxin really wanted to do him any harm, it might not be difficult.

Thinking of this, Jin Shengman asked in a cold voice: "Then how does His Highness plan to deal with this matter?"

Li Yin thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Kim Gengshin's military prestige in Silla is extremely high. This situation is very unfavorable to us, because judging from the current situation, Kim Gengshin is likely to seek refuge in Baekje. If the time comes He led the Baekje army to attack Silla, and I am afraid that countless generals will turn their backs, so in order to change this situation, we must be ruthless!"

Jin Shengman frowned. She seemed to understand Li Yin's meaning, but she hesitated and said, "Although we don't have many troops in Silla, we still have some generals. If we replace all of them, what should we do?" Where can I add it? And now that we are at war with Baekje, if such a big move is made in the army, Baekje will definitely find out, if they take advantage of it at that time..."

Jin Shengman didn't go on, the two reasons she put forward were already very sufficient, although she knew that many generals belonged to Jin Gengxin, but now is not a good time to move them.

But Li Yin laughed out loud after hearing this, because Jin Shengman didn't understand what he meant at all. He didn't want to take such trouble to replace all the generals in Silla, but had other plans. He said with a murderous face: "I'm not interested in any military reforms in Silla. If Baekje has the courage to take in Kim Gengshin and Kim Chunqiu, then the king will directly send troops to destroy the entire Baekje and pacify the peninsula in one fell swoop." The chaos in the world!"

As soon as Li Yin's words came out, Jin Shengman was stunned immediately, but then she and he suddenly understood what the gap between a big country and a small country is. Maybe in the eyes of Silla, Baekje is an extremely powerful opponent, but in the Tang Dynasty In the eyes of the prince Li Yin, Baekje is just a small country with a small country and a weak people, which can be pacified with a backhand. After all, in the face of such a huge power gap, Li Yin is simply lazy to play any tricks.

However, Jin Shengman thought of another question, and asked again: "Your Highness, it is the cold winter, it is really not a good time to start a war, and although the national strength of Baekje is worse than that of Silla, after all, there are tens of thousands of troops. If only relying on the Tang army brought by His Highness, I am afraid it is still a little tight, and if we use our Silla army, it may be rebelled by Jin Gengxin, so is the plan to destroy Baekje too early?"

Jin Shengman obviously didn't know enough about Li Yin. Since he said that he wanted to destroy Baekje, he naturally had a plan in mind, so after hearing this, he smiled and said: "The cold winter is indeed not conducive to the use of troops, but now we are all It is almost November, and this winter will not last long. As for the strength of the troops, it is not a problem. I can borrow tens of thousands of troops from Pyongyang at any time, and I still have a strong reinforcement that has not yet arrived. The calculation time is about the same Now, when they arrive, it will be the time when Baekje will perish."

The strong support Li Yin mentioned naturally refers to the group of students in the military academy. Although there are not many students who came to practice this time, they are what Li Yin needs most, because the 5000 people he brought from Dengzhou, They are all from the slave hunting team. After training by Hu Li and Zhou Long, they can barely become a qualified Datang army. However, this army has a huge shortcoming, that is, there is a serious shortage of qualified low-level officers. The training is completed in a short period of time, but it is impossible to train officers in a short period of time, so the combat effectiveness of this army is not very strong, and when the group of people from the military academy arrives, Li Yin will organize these people into his own Serving as an officer in the army will definitely raise the combat effectiveness of the army to a higher level.

Jincheng's job recruitment went very smoothly. In order to earn a living ration for the young and old in their families, many Silla men first registered their household registration and then applied for jobs with the recruiting Datang merchants.There are a lot of Datang merchants who come to Jincheng to recruit workers, and they can do all kinds of jobs, but the rewards they earn are naturally different for different jobs, and some jobs also have strict requirements, such as age, gender, and whether they are physically strong or not. They all have different requirements, so even if you want to do some jobs, people may not accept them.

And once admitted by the Tang merchants, the recruited Silla people must immediately live in the residences arranged for them by the Tang merchants, and these Tang merchants will also give a lot of food to the workers' families in advance. Giving food is to reassure the recruited Silla people, but they are afraid that these people will run away after collecting the food, so as soon as the food is sent out, these people will temporarily rob their personal freedom, and when they get enough money, they will immediately go on the road .

After seeing Jincheng's recruitment so smoothly, Li Yin and Jin Shengman finally extended this recruitment method to the whole of Silla. After all, since the war with Baekje for a year, Silla has been in a state of food shortage. Among them, even Jincheng, the capital city, has no food to buy, let alone other places.

It was also because of this food shortage that the merchants of Datang brandished grain bags and began to recruit workers on a large scale in Silla unscrupulously. Moreover, this kind of recruitment was not limited to men, even young women were also recruited. This is mainly to recruit people for the domestic textile factories in Datang, but it is a pity that because Datang captured Silla women as Silla maidservants in the past, Silla people were extremely wary of Tang people, and men also Forget it, the big deal is to buy strength. It would be too dangerous for women to work in Datang, so few of those recruiting female workers signed up.

Seeing this situation, shrewd businessmen immediately made changes. They no longer recruited female workers, but set up food processing factories, leather processing factories, and wool textile factories in Silla. The territory of the next Anton Protectorate's Mansion is almost all large-scale farms and pastures, producing a large amount of livestock meat and fur. In the past, they had to be shipped across the Bohai Bay to Dengzhou for processing, which would cost a lot of freight. , in comparison, Silla is still close, and the freight alone can save a lot of expenses.

In addition, manpower in Silla is also very cheap. Because of the war, men in Silla suffered a lot of casualties, and even widow villages appeared in some places, so when recruiting workers, it is not easy to recruit manpower.But the men are gone, but the women are still there, and they also need to support their families, so when the merchants of the Tang Dynasty recruited people with food, many Silla women who were about to starve to death immediately signed up.Capital Datang 320

It is precisely because of the entry of these Tang merchants that the food shortage in Silla has been greatly alleviated. Of course, starvation must have occurred, but at least there have been no large-scale starvation incidents. This is very important for Jin Sheng For Man, this is undoubtedly great news.
