As mentioned last time, Guo Youzhi suggested that a part of the Eastern Wu soldiers should be sent to Vietnam and Laos in later generations to engage in development.

Liu Hou has a little understanding of the history of Annam, and knows that it is divided and merged with the Central Plains Dynasty, and for as long as two thousand years, when the Central Plains Dynasty was strong, they were attached to the Central # Central Government # government, and once the Central Plains Dynasty was weakened, they would stand alone # and become a country of their own.

The reason for this is that the vast majority of people living here are local natives, who have their own culture and traditions, and they have a low degree of imperial identification with the Han people, and they will always think that they are the invaded and enslaved party, so they will resist the power and the invaders at every opportunity.

Liu Hou's idea was to relocate a large number of Han Chinese to these places, so that the number of Han Chinese far exceeded these local natives, and the natives would become a minority. However, the Han people in these places have such a high rate of infection and mortality that they may not be willing to go there even if they are given more preferential policies.

So, it has always been a place where prisoners were distributed. This time, in the face of 50,000 Eastern Wu soldiers to deal with, Guo Youzhi thought of this place. In Guo Youzhi's words, it is no longer suitable for them to go there to Tuntian.

These people are all young and strong, and they have been trained for a long time, and their bodies are very good, and their resistance to epidemics and harsh environments is much stronger than that of ordinary people, so it is most suitable for them to go to Lingnan for large-scale development.

Besides, even if they can't bear the harsh environment there and die, it is not the people of Shu who die, no matter how many Wu people die, the subjects of Shu will not feel sad, at most they will feel pity because they have lost some strong labor.

Another reason why Guo Youzhi suggested that a part of the Eastern Wu soldiers be sent to Lingnan is that there is still an army in the Lingnan area, and Fei Yuan has been expanding his Lingnan Army and constantly attacking southward, with this army, he can control a large number of Eastern Wu soldiers.

The major mining areas and Lingnan accommodated most of the Eastern Wu soldiers, but there were still a small number of Eastern Wu soldiers who could not handle them, and Guo Youzhi planned to disperse them to the local area and have them supervised by local officials.

In the days that followed, the Red Army became even busier, not only with the combat units, but also with the logistical support units. Bands of baggage soldiers were sent out under various fames, and some were sent to the localities to collect grain in the counties and townships;

Some were sent to various mines to haul ore; The most striking thing was that a large group of men and horses were sent to Lingnan, and the external version was that the distance was long and the grain production there was very abundant, and a large number of people were needed to carry it.

Among the people who went to Lingnan this time, the Eastern Wu soldiers accounted for the majority, and a small part were the original baggage soldiers of the Shu Kingdom, which was just to hide people's eyes.

Liu Hou had a secret decree to Fei Yuan, and as soon as these people arrived in Lingnan, Fei Yuan would detain the Eastern Wu soldiers according to the secret decree, and then they would become free labor for the death squads attacking the southern natives, clearing wasteland, farming, logging, and mining.

Of course, Fei Yi had to have a clear reason for stranding so many heavy soldiers in Lingnan, Fei Yi gave Liu Hou a twist, saying that the Lingnan area is vast and sparsely populated, and a large number of people are needed to develop the land.

Liu Hou naturally wouldn't disagree with this recital, this was originally instructed by him. However, in order to take care of the emotions of other ministers, Liu Hou never agreed to Fei Yi, but only replied to him, it is okay to leave people, but not all of them, and it is necessary to give priority to ensuring that there are enough people to transport grain and grass to Jingzhou, and the surplus people can stay.

As a result, these redundant people who were left behind by Fei Yi were naturally all Eastern Wu soldiers, and those who transported grain and grass back to Jingzhou were all members of the original baggage team of the Shu army.

Next, similar incidents occurred in the major mines, and the management officials of the mines first detained the Eastern Wu soldiers who came to transport the ore, and then wrote to the imperial court to request that these manpower be reserved for their use.

In the end, even the counties and townships had this kind of detention of baggage members, but due to the small number of officials and arresters in the county and township-level administrative units, and considering the difficulty of management, there were very few Dongwu soldiers assigned to the counties and townships.

Generally speaking, in ancient times, in a county, there were only 3 official apes that really had a establishment and a salary: county order, county lieutenant, and county cheng. Of course, there may be classics and histories for different dynasties, but the total number is in the single digits.

They have to pass the national civil service examination (imperial examination) and obtain the title of jinshi before they can hold the position, and their subordinates such as the master, the head catcher, the canonical history, the official servant, etc. are all recruited by the county magistrates at their own expense, and they are all temporary workers without establishment, called officials at that time, of course, from the perspective of social status and the nature of the work they are engaged in, these officials are indeed quite modern official apes.

In ancient times, even the number of these temporary workers would not be too much, generally speaking, there were about 200 people in a county, and the reason was very simple: first, the population of a county in ancient times may be about the same as that of a modern township, and there are fewer people and fewer things, so naturally there is no need for so many official apes;

Second, the ancient government did not have so many functions as the modern government, for example, if you want to open a restaurant, you don't need to apply for a health certificate at all, and you don't need a fire permit. The function is smaller, and the natural workload is much smaller.

Third, the staff and officials of ancient officials were hired by officials out of their own pockets, and in order to save costs, these officials were naturally reluctant to pay out of their own pockets and hired more officials.

Fourth, in ancient times, grassroots rule mainly relied on the armor protection system and the internal governance of individual large families. These personnel, who are equivalent to village officials and directors of neighborhood offices, are not included in the official ape establishment.

This is also the reason why the proportion of ancient official apes is much smaller than that of modern times. It's a bit off topic, to get back to the point, because there are fewer official apes in the counties and townships, so there are very few Dongwu soldiers in each county and township who can accept and resettle, and I am afraid that these local officials will not be able to cope with it at all, and it will be miserable if they are not accidentally given the opportunity to make trouble.

This time, Guo Youzhi arranged the latent Eastern Wu soldiers in batches, and acted very secretly, and did a good job of secrecy. The lurking Eastern Wu soldiers didn't understand what was going on at all, and they were dealt with in large numbers.

By the time the command system of the Dongwu soldiers in lurking reacted that something was a little inappropriate, it was already too late, most of the 50,000 Dongwu soldiers had already been secretly divided, and only a small number of Dongwu soldiers risked their lives to make trouble, and the result could be imagined.
