After being reminded by Xin'er, Li Yu couldn't wait to summon Hu Cao, who managed the household registration of the Metropolitan Protectorate, to participate in the military Lu Jingyu. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info His person was originally the Yan Wangfu Hu Cao Shen military, and after Li Yu came to Liaodong, he became the protector of the capital and the capital, but he had the right to appoint the officials of the capital and the palace on his own.

Since he did not want to appoint any more officials at all levels of the former capital protectorate, send them to the local area, and replace the position of the former Goguryeo people in the city recovered by Li Yu. Directly promoted the officials at all levels of the former Yan Wangfu by several levels and promoted them to officials at all levels of the Metropolitan Protectorate.

"Your Highness, according to the statistics of the ministers and local governments for more than a month, there are about 80,000 households and 400,000 people registered in the area controlled by the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate."

After more than a month of hard work to count the first year of the General Chapter, Lu Jingyu took the household registration situation of more than a dozen prefectures under the direct control of Li Yu and said: "This household registration number is only an approximation, just experienced the Goguryeo rebellion, many people hid in the mountains and forests and could not be counted, some people may have died, and the actual population may be different from the population ratio on the household register. ”

"There are so many people?" Xing'er, who was sitting in the hall wiping the sword in her hand, opened her cherry mouth and said in surprise. After so many years of fighting, the population should be even smaller.

Lu Jingyu was a little disappreciative and said: "Hehe! Miss Xing'er, after the pacification of Goguryeo in the first year of the general chapter, the imperial court counted that there were 697,000 households in Goguryeo, and it was estimated that there were more than 3.485 million people. At present, there are about 400,000 people under the control of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, but there are not many at all. ”

"In other words, there are more than 3 million people in the area controlled by the Goguryeo rebels, so can't they recruit hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses?" Xing'er was even more surprised, and she didn't bother to wipe the sword in her hand, and looked at Xun Jun with surprised eyes. If this is the case, then how can Xun Jun's less than 30,000 soldiers and horses fight? I'm afraid I'll have to wait for the imperial court to draw out the army.

"Xing'er, it's not you who calculated, what Lu Senjun said is just paper numbers, and the actual population will be a lot less."

Xin'er, who acted as Li Yu's adviser and a little nanny for life, and often helped Li Yu deal with government affairs, said with a light smile: "What Lu Senjun said is the statistics of the first year of the general chapter, in the past two years, in view of the continuous rebellion of Goguryeo, Your Majesty has moved hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo's rich and powerful homes to the open land of Jianghuai, Shannan, and Jingxi Prefectures twice, and now there are not as many people in Andong as there were two years ago. ”

"Miss Xin'er is right, Gu Chen knows that Gozang has a son named Ansheng, who led more than 4,000 Goguryeo families to Silla in the spring and February of the second year of the general chapter. In addition, in the past two years, due to the chaotic situation in the Andong region, rebellions have occurred frequently, many people have died due to military disasters, and many more have fled to other places. The more than 3 million people counted in the first year of the general chapter are not as large as they were two years ago. To the east of the Liaohe River, the number of people under the governors of Jian'an, Liaodong, and Xincheng is 30% less than that of two years ago. ”

400,000 is a lot, and recruiting soldiers and horses from them can probably recruit 20,000, and the total number of soldiers and horses I have in May can also be 60,000. Thinking of this, Li Yu's frowning brows also expanded, revealing a smug smile. After the first few months, the replenishment of troops is no longer too much of a problem.

However, only by recruiting Han people in the Liaodong region can they ensure their basic loyalty, and the Liaodong region has fallen into Goguryeo for more than 300 years, how many Han people will there be in other places besides southern Liaoning?

"Lu joined the army, when you counted the household registration of the people in the various states recovered by our army, did you count how many local Han people there were?"

"Your Highness, wait a minute, let someone find it." Lu Jingyu flipped through the household registration book on a few pages, "Your Highness has found it, and there are 50,000 Han households and 10,000 non-Han households in Anshi, Mianyue, Yayue, Houhuang, Jili, Wugu, Daxing, Bozhuo, Yincheng and other prefectures. ”

"What about the situation of the Han people in Shicheng, Beisha, and Qingnipu?"

"Your Highness, these three states are basically Han people, with 30,000 households, and the non-Han population is very small." Lu Jingyu turned to the record of the household registration situation of the three states at the southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula. These data were obtained by ordering officials in various localities to separate the Han and non-Han household registrations when counting the remaining local household registrations.

As a descendant of Yan and Huang, Lu Jingyu was still quite curious about how many Han Chinese were left in the Liaodong region, which had been ruled by the Goguryeo people for more than 300 years.

Although the officials of Shicheng, Beisha, and Qingnipu were not appointed by Li Yu, they were not officials transferred from the interior of the Tang Dynasty. However, due to the predominance of Han Chinese in the area, the local Han officials appointed after the capture of this place during the Taizong period were more loyal to the Tang Dynasty than those Goguryeo who surrendered, and Li Yu's new policy of ruling Anton did not touch their interests and did not resent.

The geographical location of the three states also made them a base for the Tang Dynasty to cross the sea to transport troops, grain and grass to Liaodong and a maritime gateway to control Andong.

"It's just Your Highness, in a certain statistical Liaodong household registration, I still don't know the situation of the Han people in the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of the four prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of the Goguryeo people, who are still served as governors, assassins, and county commanders!"

"I order the four governors to return to the governor's mansion and send the household registration of the people under his rule to the governor's house, and then you will count them."

"That's great." Lu Jingyu was very happy, and after the household registration of the Sidu Governor's Mansion was delivered, he would be able to roughly know the situation of the Han people in Liaodong.

"Congratulations to Jun Xun, at present, the people in Liaodong are living in hardship due to long-term wars, and with our recruitment conditions, we must be able to recruit tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, which can solve the current problem of insufficient troops." Xin'er congratulated Li Yu playfully and cutely.

"The slave family will dedicate another source of troops to expand the army for Jun Xun, I don't know if Jun Jun wants to know?"

"Oh?" Li Yu was overjoyed in his heart, since Xin'er said that there is, there must be one, "Xin'er, don't sell it, tell me where it is?" ”

In addition to the North Buyeo is the hometown of the Buyeo people, the other three governors are the original Han Dynasty Liaodong and Xuansu two counties, the local Han people are the mainstay, and it has always been the essence of the area east of the Liao River. After decades of war, the local population has decreased a lot, but it is still more prosperous than other regions, such as the two cities of Liaodong and Yanzhou. Moreover, most of the local Goguryeo people were forcibly relocated to the interior of the Tang Dynasty, and most of the people who stayed were Han Chinese, which was also an important reason why when the Goguryeo rebels were surging before, and the main cities of the Sandu Governorate had neither rebellion nor fallen. ”

"Are you saying that I can also recruit soldiers and horses among the Han people ruled by the Sandu Governor's Mansion?"

"Of course! Jun Xun, this move can not only weaken the strength of the Sandu Governor's Office, but also enhance the local Han people's desire to return to China and the Tang Dynasty. ”

Lu Jingyu also said: "There are still many Han people in the governor's mansion of the three capitals who were former Sui soldiers and people who conquered Goguryeo but did not live in the local area, the number is no less than hundreds of thousands, and there are many of their descendants in the local area in the past few decades. ”

It seems that he has been mistaking many people living in the area east of the Liao River for Goguryeo! There are still so many people living along the east side of the Liao River who are their own compatriots.

Kenuo's large number of recruits from the Sandu Governor's Mansion also made Li Yu hesitate, after all, this area was an area with extremely fierce resistance to the Tang Dynasty, unlike the three southern states of the Liaodong Peninsula.

"It is better to recruit Han people as soldiers in the three capital governors' districts, and wait for the three governors to send the local household registration, and then make a decision on whether to recruit troops in these three places after checking the Han people's household registration." Li Yu finally made a sound decision, if the soldiers recruited from the three places were turned against each other by the Goguryeo rebels, it would be a big trouble.
