On both sides of the Baijiang River estuary, the tunpu is connected, and the Qianmo is vertical and horizontal.

Patches of fields are now being ploughed in the spring.

A handsome flag fluttered on the field road, and the Shuaifu soldiers escorted Li Xiao, the deputy capital of Anton, to inspect this good scene.

Zhao Zhiman, the commander of the soldiers and horses and the commander of the water division, rode a horse to accompany Li Xiao, pointing out the scene in front of Li Xiao and explaining the situation of the government soldiers and cultivating the fields.

Li Xiao, as the deputy metropolitan protector of Andong Province, also served as the observer envoy of Andong Province, the envoy of economic strategy, the pacification envoy, the regimental training envoy, the camp field envoy, and the transfer envoy.

After the long-term battle suppressed the flame of Baekje's restoration, Li Xiao is now fully promoting the affairs of Baekje Tuntian.

The government soldiers and the township warrior soldiers also gave land to the people.

Nowadays, a large amount of land in Baekje has been monopolized in the hands of a few Baekje nobles and powerful people in the past, and most of it has been given to the government soldiers, village warriors and common people, and many others have been sold to the noble and powerful landlords of the Central Plains, and some of them have been allocated by Li Xiao to various government offices and official schools as official fields and school fields.

Spring ploughing is busy everywhere.

Even the fields owned by the Tang people of the Central Plains are also a busy scene. Li Xiao had already issued an order that all fields should not be barren, even if the land was bought by the nobles of the Central Plains, it must be cultivated and not abandoned.

If the land is abandoned, then the marshal has the right to temporarily take away the land and rent it out, and the original landlord has no right to enjoy it, and they have to pay a high fine, and if they do not plant for three consecutive years, the marshal has the right to directly take it into official ownership.

It is said that after this handsome order was issued, it aroused the dissatisfaction of many Chang'an nobles and powerful people who owned the land, and they also complained to the emperor about his black situation, but Li Xiao didn't care about this, he only knew that the game of Baekje must be revitalized, and the grain harvest must be ensured first.

On the edge of a field ditch, the black fish who was sowing seeds with his wife, father-in-law, brother-in-law, etc., saw Li Xiao and Zhao Zhiman who came to patrol on horseback, and hurriedly pulled his wife and knelt on the ground with a coo, and bowed to Li Xiao and them again and again.

Calling the handsome and the great grace of the Yanei, I will never dare to forget it.

Zhao Zhiman recognized the black fish at a glance and called him up with a smile.

"Blackfish, let me ask you, are you still satisfied with you, the Baekje bride?"

"Satisfied, satisfied, a thousand and ten thousand." Blackfish laughed repeatedly.

"Then let me ask you again, are you satisfied with the 100 acres of military land allocated to you by the government, as well as your small courtyard?"

"Satisfied, very satisfied."

Zhao Zhiman nodded, "It's good to be satisfied, you must know that you are grateful, you used to be poor in Huaixi, but now here, with the care of the handsome, your thirty-year-old old bachelor married the twenty-eight Baekje Jiaoniang, and also got a hundred acres of military land, and became a soldier who everyone envied, and life is not bad." You have to keep in mind that all this did not fall from the sky today, and all this is not easy to come by, so you must train the land well and protect all that you have now. ”

"Heiyu understands, thank you Yanei, thank you Dashuai!"

Li Xiao had also heard of the name of the black fish, and pointed at him with a horsewhip with a smile, "I want to thank Your Majesty for the grace of heaven and the benevolence of the imperial court." Now that you have a family and land, you must be diligent and honest, and work hard to support your family. Saying that, Li Xiao turned his head to Zhang Cong beside him and said, "Give this big black fish two thousand money, two pieces of cloth, and give him a run of his family." ”

The black fish was happy and busy kowtowing like garlic.

Li Xiao summoned his father-in-law and brother-in-law for questioning, and they were even more terrified and answered all questions. After chatting a few words, Li Xiao also comforted them with kind words, let them live honestly, and then rewarded them with some money.

For many days, Li Xiao took the soldiers to inspect the entire states and counties of Andong Province, and everywhere he saw was a busy scene of spring ploughing.

There is no longer a scene of last year's war, the Acropolis of Litunbao in the countryside is criss-crossed, and there are soldiers and villagers patrolling everywhere along the road, and the tense atmosphere before the half is gone.

Those Baekje nobles and magnates who used to be high in the past have been thrown down one after another, guarded, and can no longer be powerful.

"Anton's situation is very good!" Changshi Liu Renliang sighed.

Now in the land of Andong, there are 180 counties in 16 prefectures of the Five Capital Governor's Mansion, with a total of 20,000 government soldiers, in addition to the previous batch of 10,000 reinforcements, Li Xiao has successively asked the imperial court for 7,000 people, plus the original 3,000 Tang soldiers, making the total number of Tang troops reach 20,000, which is the number of a standard field army in the Tang Dynasty.

And the number of Xiangyong is also rising.

There are 200 people in each county, and the total number of township warriors has reached 60,000.

These village warriors are also soldiers and farmers, in fact, they are the same as the government soldiers, and they are soldiers in their spare time and in wartime. It's just that they don't have the qualifications of government soldiers, and their treatment is worse, and their equipment and equipment are naturally much inferior to government soldiers.

But the number is still very large, which makes Li Xiao actually have the combat power of four legions in Andong Dao.

In particular, the military offices and forts garrisoned by these government soldiers and village warriors formed a chain of ropes and controlled the Andong area very tightly.

There were some Baekje rebellions in various places, but each time they were uprooted as soon as they appeared. The king of Buyeo, who is still in exile in Goguryeo, did not dare to return to Baekje.

Perhaps because of the effectiveness of Yi Xiao's methods in Baekje, the Goguryeo people have not made any major moves, and although they have continuously sent some scout sentries to cross the border, they have never broken the previous truce.

The Goguryeo people still maintained an attitude towards the Tang Dynasty and did not dare to break the delicate balance of today.

If Baekje is not chaotic, the Goguryeo people will not dare to make any changes.

And Li Xiao is in Baekje, which makes Baekje more and more stable.

On the other hand, on the Silla side, the situation is getting worse and worse.

Liu Renliang asked Li Xiao, "Dashuai, Silla sent an envoy to ask for help, but we still refused?" ”

Shuaifu Sima Li Jinxing said disdainfully, "Those Silla people are really useless, they can't beat tens of thousands of Japanese people, and they still have the face to ask for help several times." ”

"This time the situation seems to be a little different, it is said that the king of Silla, Kim Chunqiu, is seriously ill, and I heard that it seems that he is going to die. It is said that Kim Chunqiu wanted his son Kim Famin to succeed him, but there were also many nobles who wanted to support their second son Kim In-wen to succeed him, and there were also people who wanted to set up a young son, Kim In-tae. ”

Silla was defeated by the Japanese attack, in fact, it was precisely because Jin Chunqiu was seriously ill that the Silla court was fighting around the heirs, and they were too busy with internal fighting to defend themselves against foreign enemies.

Originally, there was no doubt that Jin Famin was the son of the world, and there was no doubt that he would succeed to the throne, but Jin Renwen, as the second son, also had his capital, and his capital was that he had been to the Tang Dynasty as a proton and became Emperor Gaozong's personal guard.

Gaozong said that he came to the court by sea, and his loyalty was acceptable, and he was specially awarded the general of the left leading army, and he was allowed to return to the country last year. Tang conquered Baekje, and Kim In-wen also assisted in the attack as the deputy commander of the Silla army.

With these experiences, Kim In-man undoubtedly became the leader of the pro-Tang faction in the Silla Dynasty, and now the pro-Tang faction intends to support Kim In-man as the king. Compared to Kim In-wen, the prince Kim Famin actually represents another attitude towards the Tang Dynasty of the Silla Dynasty, that is, using the Tang Dynasty to deal with the three enemies of Goguryeo, Baekje, and even the Wa, and they even want to use the hands of the Tang to seize the land of Baekje and Goguryeo.

"Is Jin Chunqiu really going to die?"

"Yes, it is estimated that I will not live for this month, and the prince of Kim In-wen sent a secret envoy to come, hoping that the marshal can send troops into Silla and support him to succeed to the throne at a critical time." Liu Renliang nodded.

Li Xiao touched his chin, "It's quite interesting." ”
