Liu Jun has money to buy, buy, buy, and Li Xiao received so much deed money, not just to collect money for the imperial court. In fact, he divided the deed money into three parts, one cent to pay tribute, one cent to the envoy, and one cent to stay in the state.

Two-thirds of the deed money was still in Li Xiao's hands in the end, and after several transactions, Li Xiao received more than 10,000 yuan of deed money, and there were as many as 10,000 yuan left.

With such a large amount of money, Li Xiao actually arranged it a long time ago.

"Recruitment?" Liu Jun was surprised.

"What's surprising?" Li Xiao asked rhetorically, the first thing he had to do after taking office was to form a team of soldiers and horses of the Economic Strategy Mission, and even the next step was to establish a force subordinate to the state in the Wuzhen Prefecture Mansion.

Of course, this kind of soldier and horse cannot be the same as the government soldiers and the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and this soldier is actually equivalent to the township soldiers and militias. It is not a formal soldier, but it can play a certain role in peacetime.

In any case, after all, this is the Korean Peninsula and Baekje, and this is still the front line.

If there is no soldier, then he, who is known as the commander of the army, is really just an empty title. If there were no soldiers, he, the assassin of Wuzhen Prefecture, would be unable to truly govern the people here.

This is a newly conquered area, except for those soldiers of the Eastern Crusade, it is rare to see even a Han Chinese, how can you manage those conquered Baekje people without swords, guns and clubs?

It is impossible to be all caught and sold as slaves, and everyone is sold out, so he Li Xiao is still a fart thorn in history. Besides, if this kind of extermination policy is really implemented, I am afraid that the people of Baekje will never be willing to be captured again, and then there will definitely be a rebellion everywhere.

Along the way, Li Xiao had already thought about how to carry out his work after he arrived.

At present, he can rely on the Eastern Expeditionary Naval Division, but after all, it is better to rely on himself than on others, he is a field army, and his main task is to attack cities and conquer cities on the front line, and it is impossible to always send people to help him maintain order in the rear. In the future, the more places are captured, the more unable it is to divide the troops.

In addition, the policy towards the Baekje people should also be a combination of grace and power, and should not be blindly tough and high-handed.

At least we have to maintain a stable state first, and then slowly introduce the immigrants of the Central Plains, open up the wasteland here, and finally wait for the imperial court to set up a new military government here, and after there are government soldiers stationed, it can be truly stable.

This thorn history is not easy to be, and this slight appeasement makes it even more difficult to be.

To be good, you must first have your own human gun.

Now that he has thousands of dollars in his hands, Li Xiao is ready to immediately implement his strategy and recruit troops first.

However, there are no Han Chinese here, so only those Baekje people can be recruited.

In the final analysis, it is actually to recruit a group of two dogs to maintain order.

"These Baekje people may not be reliable."

"I know, aren't you still here now, and they don't dare to mess around. Choose a batch of honest ones first, and use them first. ”

Conquering the people with razing and dividing the people of Baekje is the top priority.

After all, Baekje is also a dynasty that has been established for hundreds of years, although it is not as advanced as the Central Plains Dynasty, but over the years, it has also had its own class, including nobles and commoners, as well as many slaves.

Baekje was a small country in the country a long time ago, and then Mahan was powerful, and then a royal family from the Buyeo Kingdom in the northern Liaodong went south and established Baekje Kingdom here, annexing Mahan and other large and small powers, and finally became one of the three heroes of the Liaodong Peninsula and the Korean Peninsula with Silla and Goguryeo.

The Eastern Expedition Naval Division came to the east, and the Baekje people resisted stubbornly, but in the face of the powerful combat power of the Naval Division, they were vulnerable, and in just half a year, they had lost more than 30 cities.

Now that the Tang Dynasty has established two prefectures and ten counties in the occupied area, the Baekje garrisons that resisted the most fiercely at the beginning were either killed or captured, and the nobles and heroes who were high in the past were also dealt a big blow.

Many fled with the defeated army, and some were trapped and stayed for the time being.

Now they are all trembling, and the money is not less paid to the Eastern Expeditionary Sailors, but they have not been promised protection.

"My initial plan is to recruit 3,000 villagers in Wuzhen Prefecture as state soldiers."

Before the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the garrisons of the central court, each region also had its own state and county soldiers, and these soldiers were not subordinate to each other. The central army was under the direct management and control of the imperial court, while the state and county soldiers were under the command of the state and county.

After the Sui Dynasty, the imperial court gradually abolished the state and county soldiers, and in the past, the assassins had great power, just because they could manage the people and command the army.

During the Yang Guang period of the Sui Dynasty, the state was abolished and the county was stayed, and a general guard was set up under the Taishou, so that the Taishou was in charge of civil affairs full-time, and the Tongshou was responsible for the command of the army, and the separation of civil, military, and civilian forces greatly weakened the authority of the Taishou.

In the Tang Dynasty, further, the soldiers of the world were all subordinate to the Twelve Guards, and the state assassin history basically could not directly command the troops.

Now Li Xiao wants to rebuild the state soldiers, which is inappropriate, but because this is a newly conquered land on the frontier, it can be regarded as an expedient measure, after all, Li Xiao is not only a assassin, but also a pacification envoy, and the envoy himself is also a military position, so he has this authority.

"Three thousand?"

"You're not afraid of their rebellion?"

"Why be afraid?" Li Xiao was very confident, he planned to recruit only from the lower classes of the original Baekje, and even from the slaves of the nobles and powerful people in the past.

"Anyone who comes to recruit soldiers from our state, once selected, will be rewarded with 100 yuan each, and they will be counted as soldiers after eating state food. Food and clothing are provided by the state capital, and those who join our army, whether they are slaves or civilians before, will become the children of the Tang Dynasty, become free people, and the past slave status will be pardoned, and the past debts will also be forgiven. ”

Liu Jun was dumbfounded.

"Can it still be like this?"

"Absolutely."

He only recruited slaves and low-level commoners, and never those nobles and nobles of Baekje.

This is to divide the Baekje aborigines, the nobles of Baekje are strong and powerful, but they are small in number, and they are the most unwilling to see the Tang conquer and occupy Baekje, so these people will not really be willing to conquer Baekje by the Tang Dynasty, and will resist openly and secretly.

On the contrary, those slaves and civilians with more numbers, they are already having a hard time, and they don't have any wealth or anything like that, so they don't need to talk to them about any nation, family and country or anything like that, if the Tang people come and live a better life, of course they are more willing to support the Tang Dynasty and follow the Tang Dynasty.

In this way, the people of Baekje will be split into two parts, and no matter how much the upper echelons of Baekje do not give up, without the support of the lower classes, it will be difficult for them to achieve great things.

As for saying that those Baekje people can't believe it too much, of course Li Xiao will be on guard first.

"After the three thousand state soldiers are recruited, I will let the mercenaries brought by my second brother Zhao be instructors to train and lead them. I won't really give them any weapons until I have completely tamed them, so let's give each of them a stick. ”

"Just a stick? Wooden guns are not given a single shot? ”

"If you want any gun, it's good to have a stick, anyway, I don't expect these state soldiers to be able to do anything right away, but it's just to act as a subordinate for the commander, and the bullet pressure deters those Baekje magnates and powerful."

"A bunch of sticks, can it be of great use?"

"Let's talk about it."
