Li Yu took Dou Huaike, the military officer of Wangfu Cang, Cao Shen, as the history of the Silla inspector, and left the Zhenyi army under the command of Wei Chi Xunyan to stay in Silla, and built another Zhenyi City on the west bank of the Shili River in the west of Jincheng as the residence of the Zhenyi army.

The land within a radius of ten miles of Zhenyi City was owned by the Tang Dynasty garrison, and Silla people were recruited to cultivate the tenants, and the land rent was fifty percent. The Silla people were not allowed to settle in the city to prevent spies, and the food of the garrison should be sent by Silla.

Kim Jong-ah, the queen of Silla, and a group of hundreds of officials who had taken office climbed the west tower of Jinseong, which had not yet been restored, and watched the Tang army slowly leaving the city with complicated faces.

Half a year ago, Silla still had a land of thousands of miles from north to south and more than 500 miles from east to west, with more than 3 million people, and its national strength reached the peak of history. These Silla officials and magnates even reaped a lot of land wealth from Silla's great expansion.

However, in just half a year, all the territories gained by Silla's more than 100 years of expeditions to Gogoryeo in the north and Baekje in the west were lost, and the wealth accumulated for hundreds of years was lost. These eunuchs and magnates who were powerful and prosperous in Silla not only lost their family wealth, but in order to survive, they also willingly became the pawns of the Tang State to control Silla, which is really sad!

When the Tang army walked away, the Silla ministers on the castle tower returned to the palace with their queen in arms, and looked for a solution to the dilemma of the people's livelihood withering after the war and facing the coming cold winter.

In the past, a large number of young and strong people were conscripted into the army, and they either died in battle or fled to the mountains and forests to cause trouble for bandits, resulting in insufficient labor force in the countryside to harvest grain, and a lot of grain was rotted in the fields under the rain in autumn.

The food reserves that had been stored in the past were almost depleted in this war.

At present, half of the people of Silla are facing the problem of insufficient food, and if they cannot solve the food problem well, maybe this winter, how many people will freeze and starve to death, and the hungry people in various places do not know how many riots will occur.

In addition, to the worry of the Silla monarchs, King Yan put another shackle around the neck of Silla before leaving.

Forty percent of Silla's annual tax revenue was to be paid to the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, and the remaining 60 percent was to be transferred to the treasury of the Silla Tang Army stationed in Jinyi Fortress and controlled by the Inspector Shi after deducting the military and political needs for one year. Without the decree of King Yan, no one can call it.

As the Silla ministers left with their queen Kim Jong-ah with a stomach full of sorrow, Kim Bisu and Kim Nak-su in the crowd looked at each other with malicious smiles across the crowd.

This is the first close contact since Yan Wang announced the position of the two that day.

The two approached under the escort of their own soldiers, their faces full of smiles as if they had seen old friends they hadn't seen for many years, but the soldiers behind them stared at each other, holding the hilt of their knives, and drew their knives to tear them apart if they didn't agree with each other.

"I'm curious, how did you, who were in the prison at night, have my limbs chained to me, managed to escape the rebellion in his eyes from the people sent by Kim Famin?"

Jin Luoshui smiled heartily.

"Huh!" Jin Bisu let out a breath of turbid air and said, "Of course, it was the Tang army who stormed the prison and saved me!" ”

"Your life is like a rat in the gutter, smelly and hard. Most of the prisoners in the prison were killed, and it happened that the Tang army attacked you when they fell to you......"

"This is the blessing of His Royal Highness King Yan, how can a person who loves glory understand it?"

Jin Luoshui smiled sarcastically, and suddenly pointed at Jin Bisu and laughed, "Jin Bisu, aren't you also a raccoon dog?" ”

"But I failed, and you're a solid speculative wallgoer. History will remember that you were a golden law before the destruction of Jincheng, and took the opportunity to kill the officials and generals in the city. After the city was broken, in order to invite merit from King Yan, you defected to the battle, captured the palace, and dedicated Jin Famin and other members of the royal family to King Yan, becoming King Yan's loyal eagle dog......"

"I don't know if I'm right?" Kim asked with a smile.

Jin Luo snorted coldly, as Kim Bisu said, when it comes to the crime against Silla, he is much heavier than Kim Bisu, who plotted to coerce Kim Famin to surrender in Kaesong but failed to be arrested, and most of his family was killed. It was he who lightly deceived the palace city as the general of the palace guards, killed all the palace guards, captured Jin Famin alive, and gave it to the Tang army with his own hands.

History will focus on remembering him as a traitor to Silla, and the people of Silla who are hungry and cold at the moment will regard him as the No. 1 traitor.

"The concubine who was pulled down from your bed that night served my subordinates very well, but unfortunately, she died too quickly."

Jin Luoshui and his subordinates talked and laughed about the concubine who was fortunate that night, and left with a laugh.

Jin Bisu's face turned blue with anger, that little concubine was his favorite, but she was humiliated to death by the enemy.

"In this life, I don't take the head of Jinluo Shuixiang, and I swear not to be a person!"

The scene of the two parting unhappily fell in the eyes of Dou Huaike, who served as the principal of Silla in the distance.

"Dou Changshi, the two of them won't fight in the city, right?"

Wei Chi Xunyan said a little worriedly.

"His Highness has just left Jincheng, and the two of them dare not do anything no matter how bold they are. His Royal Highness's arrangement for the two of them, one person commands the palace guards stationed in Jincheng Palace, and the other leads the Suqing army stationed in Jieyichang County, which is dozens of miles apart, and there are left and right forbidden troops and your Zhenyi army to suppress them, forgive them and dare not openly lead the army to seek revenge. But in private, I'm afraid the two will fight hotly. ”

Dou Huaike said with far-reaching eyes.

……

The troops and horses that returned north with Li Yu were the last and largest group of the Tang army in Silla, totaling 30,000 people, and the march stretched for ten miles.

Along the way, the prestige left behind by the Tang army caused the people of Silla to retreat one after another, and they only dared to hide in the mountains and forests to watch secretly.

From Jincheng to the north to Pyongyang, the journey is more than 1,500 miles, and the road back to the north is mountainous, and the army travels only 40 miles a day, and it will be faster to reach the river valley plain, but it can travel 60 miles a day. It is expected that it will take about 20 days to return to Pyongyang.

If it was a rapid march, the speed would be faster, and it was not a battle to be taken by surprise, Li Yu felt that there was no need for this, so he walked back slowly.

The only thing that made Li Yu unhappy was that it was the end of December after he returned to Pyongyang, and it was too late to rush back to Chang'an for the New Year.

"After I go back, I will explain the reason to my father and queen mother, and I will not return to Chang'an for the Chinese New Year this year."

Li Yu, who was sitting in the steady carriage, thought about the fire.

Thinking about what happened this year, Li Yu was quite emotional, at the beginning of the year, he captured a large area of land at the confluence of the three rivers, and surrendered the local Heishui and Ya tribes who fled to surrender, and the territory was expanded to the temple street of the Heishui estuary in later generations. Silla, which was regarded as a major trouble, was also pacified, and from then on there was an additional source of wealth, and the focus of the coming year should be fully focused on the development of the South Seas.

It's just that Anton's finances have always relied on the number of trading houses and workshops he established to produce and sell exclusive goods to make huge profits. Although the annual profit is high, it can support the ordnance and food of hundreds of thousands of troops, hundreds of thousands of immigrants, the salaries of officials of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, and overseas exploration and development.

Counting the large and small expenses, Li Yu found that the high profits he earned every year were facing a situation where he was stretched.

There are not only Li Yu's commercial bank business that has not yet fully explored the national market to bring greater economic benefits, but also the small population in the early Tang Dynasty, and the market size is not too much impact. Due to the frequent droughts and frosts in Guanzhong in recent years, the economy of Guanzhong, which has a large population, has declined, and the four towns of Anxi have been captured by Tibet, and the war has led to the interruption of the Silk Road from time to time.
