After arranging the tasks of the generals, Li Xiao did not stay for a long time, but immediately returned to Baijiang Fort by boat without stopping, and stayed there for only one night, and the next day he set off by boat and returned to the Shuai Mansion along the Baijiang River.

Returning from the north, Li Xiao had a serious sense of crisis.

The Japanese sent back a prince, and as a result, they gathered in response to the call, and quickly gathered tens of thousands of rebels, which he had not expected before.

And the Japanese people directly sent troops to Baekje, which was even more surprising, coupled with Goguryeo's ambiguous attitude now, which made Li Xiao feel deeply urgent.

The night before Jiuchicheng left, Li Xiao had already written a memo to the imperial court, requesting that a group of government soldiers be transferred from Henan, Jianghuai, and Hebei provinces to Baekje.

In the recital, he described the situation as critical, saying that without reinforcements from the Central Plains government, Baekje might not be safe. The situation that was fought hard at the beginning will be ruined, and it may be even more difficult to take Baekje next time.

He didn't know if the imperial court would send troops or how many, but this could only be a good expectation.

The reinforcements of the imperial court are only counted out of the plan, and they can't really be completely counted on.

Baekje's defense still has to rely on itself.

Zhao Zhiman and others are generals, they only need to defend a city and stick to their tasks, but he Li Xiao is handsome and has to lead the overall situation.

Dedicate yourself to one thing, and time always flies.

The sky was already shining outside the window in the backyard of the Shuaifu, and when Cui Yuenu was holding a bowl of millet porridge on his desk, the red candle had already burned to the end.

Smelling the fragrant millet porridge, Li Xiao put down the pen in his hand and stretched.

Yuenu was very diligent in helping Li Xiao open the window and put away the paper and pen on the table.

The cool morning breeze hits the face with an indescribable comfort, which makes people feel comfortable.

Looking at the girl Yuenu, Li Xiao suddenly remembered something.

"Yingluo has been alive at home recently, right?" He asked.

"It's still like that." Cui Yuenu wanted to speak and stopped.

"Say whatever you want."

"Da Shuai, if you want me to say that she is too hypocritical, Da Shuai is not in the house these days, she quietly wrote to the Cui family, and asked people to send a lot of things over, she really regarded the things in this Shuai's house as her own. If you want me to say, Dashuai just treated her too politely, if Dashuai directly accepted her, she would definitely not be like this again. ”

Li Xiao picked up breakfast and said while eating, "I want to see how arrogant this girl is." ”

For him, the current Cui Yingluo is just a beautiful woman, and he Li Xiao actually lacks women the most. As long as he wants, how many don't.

But Li Xiao didn't want to let her go, just stay by her side, looking at the expression of hatred and dissatisfaction of the once noble five-surnamed woman, it was actually quite good sometimes.

Her presence reminds Li Xiao of how many enemies he has.

"Moon slave, what do you think of this Baekje woman working in the Shuai Mansion?"

"It's good, these people are very attentive and responsible."

Li Xiao nodded, no matter what, after the Tang army conquered Baekje, it would be dominated by Baekje people at this stage and even for a long time, and the Tang occupation army would always be a minority.

After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, they implemented the strategy of separating the Manchus and Hans, and they built Manchu cities in various places to separate them from the Han people. This strategy is not impossible, but Li Xiao feels that it is still not good enough.

As soon as he saw the moon slave, he thought of an idea, that is, marriage.

Let the officers stationed in Baekje take the women of the tame powerful tribes of Baekje as concubines to strengthen their rule by marriage, and the soldiers can also marry or accept local women of Baekje as wives and concubines.

For those Baekje people who married with the Tang Dynasty soldiers, they could be included in the household registration of the Tang Dynasty, and they could be given land grants.

There are so many people in Baekje, they have to fight and pull. For example, the royal family and nobles must be suppressed with all their might, confiscating their property and escorting them to the Central Plains, and the general large landlords can marry and use their influence to establish local order.

From the maid Li Xiao thought of proton again.

Those powerful landlords all sent their children to be protons, nominally to receive a cultural education in Sinology. Li Xiao felt that it was necessary to establish a state school and a county school in Baekje to comprehensively promote Han culture and education, which could also be regarded as colonial education.

You have to start from a young age, let those Baekje babies learn Han culture from a young age, and subtly accept Han culture and accept the Tang Dynasty from the Tang official dialect.

In the future, the Tang Dynasty will definitely immigrate to Baekje one after another, and perhaps after the Han immigrants increase in the future, the problem of rule will not be much trouble, but now, only a few thousand Tang people will definitely be more difficult among the Baekje people with a population of two or three million.

After breakfast, Li Xiao did not rest, but asked the moon slave to fetch him a public uniform.

He didn't wear armor today, and he didn't want to wear armor when he didn't lead the army. is wearing a Tang Dynasty official uniform, Li Xiao is now a purple-robed goldfish, and he is particularly majestic after wearing it.

In front of the bronze mirror on the floor, Li Xiao took a closer look and found that he had been a little darker recently, but he also seemed to be stronger.

It's just that the complexion is not very good, and it is a little haggard.

"Dashuai, Chang'an Angel has arrived!"

The captain of the guard, Zhang Cong, came over to report that this kid was still wearing a pair of bright light armor, and he walked loudly. This set of armor was rewarded by Li Xiao, and he was reluctant to take it off after he got it, and he couldn't wait to wear it to sleep.

"Is there a will so soon?"

Coming to the front hall, the envoy from Chang'an has been waiting for a long time, this envoy set out from Chang'an five days ago, water and land turnover, day and night, almost without stopping.

Sitting there, his face was even more haggard and ugly than Li Xiao's.

"I've seen Li Dashuai." The messenger was a person Li Xiao didn't know, wearing a cyan official robe, not very old, looking like a literati, and he didn't have the arrogance of a child of the world. Li Xiao is estimated to be a young official from the Shu imperial examination.

After a cold noise, the incense table was placed to welcome the holy decree.

The holy decree was somewhat unexpected by Li Xiao, and the emperor issued an edict to divide Andong Road into two and split it into two provinces, Liaodong Province and Andong Province, of which Liaodong, Goguryeo and the more northeastern provinces were assigned to Liaodong Province, and Liaodong Metropolitan Protectorate was set up, with Wei Chigong as the metropolitan protector and Xue Rengui as the deputy metropolitan protector and governor of Liaodong Metropolitan Governor's Office.

The land of Baekje, south of Goguryeo, was set up as the capital of Andong and was also managed by Silla. The imperial court took Pei Xingjian as the protector of Anton, this Pei Xingjian is the widow of the former Sui famous general Pei Xingji, who was born in Wenchen, but is known as the male of Confucian generals.

However, the imperial court awarded him the title of Protector of Anton, and he is now a servant of the Ministry of Officials.

The imperial court asked Pei Xingjian to be the protector of the capital, but he did not take office, obviously because of Li Xiao. After all, with Li Xiao's qualifications and age, he was not enough to serve as the protector of the capital, but the imperial court also knew that Li Xiao was doing well in Baekje, and he didn't want to send a boss over through him, so as not to discord with the generals at that time, so he simply found a famous person to be the protector of the capital, and let a talent like Xue Rengui be the deputy protector.

Dividing Andong Province into two is also out of practical considerations, now the imperial court is mainly using troops to the western Turks, and the east is mainly defending, Goguryeo is not destroyed, and Andong Province is isolated from the north and south, and it is inconvenient to unify the overall situation, so it is simply divided.

Xue Rengui guarded Liaodong, and Li Xiao guarded Baekje.

In fact, it is still the same as in the past, but after the split in two, the responsibilities are clearer.

In this holy decree, there is also news that makes Li Xiao very happy.

The emperor transferred 8,000 soldiers from the Huaiyang Prefecture of Qi, 200 ships of all sizes and 2,000 sailors to reinforce Baekje, which were assigned to Li Xiao and stationed in Andong for a long time.

Eight thousand soldiers, plus two thousand sailors, that's 10,000.

The reinforcement of 10,000 people was really timely for Li Xiao. And the size of the two hundred ships and two thousand sailors Li Xiao also valued, with a little training, then he could form a real sailor fleet with the ships under Zhao Zhiman's command.

With the advanced ships of the Don Army, there will be no opponent at sea.

"When will reinforcements arrive?" Li Xiao asked the angel.

"At most, we will arrive in three or five days, and I hope that the marshal will prepare as soon as possible to settle down to reinforce the generals."

"There is no problem with this, there are now five prefectures and 180 counties in Andong Province, and in addition to these prefectures and counties, many fort acropolis have been built, which is enough to accommodate these people."

The official said, "Dashuai, the imperial court means that in order to ensure the long-term peace and tranquility of this Baekje, these Qingqi Zhunyang 8,000 soldiers who came to help will not go back, and they will be stationed in Baekje for a long time in the future. ”

Li Xiao was even happier with this news, the new soldiers stationed in Baekje for a long time, that is, they will not leave when they come.

"I wonder when their families will arrive?" Li Xiao hurriedly asked.

"No family is here for the time being."

"Why?" Li Xiao was puzzled.

As a result, the angel's reply made Li Xiao cry and laugh, it turned out that although the emperor had drawn 8,000 soldiers for Li Xiao, in fact, these soldiers were not really government soldiers, they were temporarily selected by surprise. Most of them are selected from the sons and nephews of the old soldiers in the military houses in Qingqi and Huaiyang, and the ones selected are basically those second sons and concubines, and most of them are just married and unmarried.

Only in this way can young people who are not married come to Baekje without worry.

However, in this way, Li Xiao originally hoped that as soon as these government soldiers arrived, their hopes of moving their families would be disappointed.

Here came 8,000 young bachelors.

There are only these 8,000 young singles, and there will be no more family members coming.

But when I think about it, something is better than nothing.

These singles are not afraid to come over, they have no family and no wife, Li Xiao is responsible for helping them find their mothers and giving them a real home here.

When the time comes, the fields are divided, the daughters-in-law are married, and the children are born, then the hearts of these bachelors are here, and everyone will definitely defend this newly conquered land even more diligently for the sake of their own family property and for their wives and children.
