Chapter 1272: Take Baekje
These Silla nobles were really frightened, although many county towns had not yet been affected, they did not dare to command or contact those city guards now, even the generals of these city guards.
Because to put it nicely, these generals are all generals, but if the soldiers at the bottom don't listen to you, what is the difference between you, a general, and a soldier?
The Jinseong incident was like a signal, the people in the cities of the entire Silla, and the ordinary soldiers suddenly found that they were nothing at all, if it weren't for the Tang Dynasty announcing that it had taken over the entire Silla.
I'm afraid that these soldiers are going to do something, but now that the Tang Dynasty has announced that it has taken over, and their original noble generals don't dare to care about them, these soldiers have maintained their current tacit understanding.
When the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty quickly came to the various cities of Silla and began to directly take over these cities, both ordinary soldiers and ordinary Silla people, as well as the remaining nobles of Silla, were also relieved.
It's so scary, these pariahs are like crazy, they are so ruthless, if they continue, I'm afraid they will be killed too.
These nobles are now shrunk into their homes like turtles.
And the officials of Datang also quickly began to manage at their own pace in various places.
First of all, the opening of relief grain depots in various parts of Silla began to make use of the disaster victims in various parts of Silla, distributed food to them for the winter, and began to hire them to cut down trees and build temporary houses in various local cities.
The ordinary people of Silla did not have much work in the winter, and they did not need to work for the time being, but Datang still hired a large number of Silla people to transport supplies and food.
Large quantities of supplies and grain were constantly delivered to the border between Silla and Goguryeo.
When the situation on Silla's side changed dramatically, the king of Baekje next door and Baekje were also assassinated, but this was not a rebellion, but an assassination, and a large number of crossbows shot them directly on the spot when the king of Baekje led the hundred officials to sacrifice heaven and earth a year ago, and at least two-thirds of the ministers died directly with the king and others.
Although there were thousands of guards around, these guards didn't react at the first time.
When this incident broke out, the entire Baekje was also in turmoil in an instant, and the royal family of Baekje itself was not very influential enough, and when so many important people died, the entire court of Baekje instantly began to fight for power.
Generals from some of Baekje's families also began to try to get their hands on the situation.
It's just that their actions are naturally not as fast as Datang, and the king on the side of Baekje was not elected, and when the situation was chaotic, Cheng Yanjin directly led 5,000 Tang soldiers to attack the Baekje King City, and announced that Datang would take over the entire Baekje.
The excuse used is slightly different from Silla, the excuse is that considering that there were a large number of rebels in Silla next door, and then the Silla royal family and nobles were wiped out as a whole, and now Baekje also has such a trend, so Daetang wants to take over the whole of Baekje.
Along with Cheng Biting Kim's order, 10,000 Tang soldiers also landed at a port close to Baekje.
At this time, these nobles of Baekje were also dumbfounded, they never expected that the Tang Dynasty would announce the takeover of the entire Baekje at this time, but now ...... They really can't resist.
The current Baekje can't have one heart at all, not to mention that many soldiers in Baekje are assisting the Tang Dynasty in the border war, and their current domestic army is just some.
When more than 10,000 elite troops of the Tang Dynasty arrived here, the royal city of Baekje could only accept the takeover of the Tang Dynasty.
Cheng Biting Jin is different from Li Daozong, although nominally Li Daozong is also responsible for these, but Cheng Biting Jin is doing more extremely, after taking over Baekje, he first canceled the command of all the generals of Baekje's army, but temporarily incorporated Baekje's soldiers into the Tang Dynasty army for mixing.
In other words, Datang was originally the squad leader of one squad, but now he needs to bring two more squads of Baekje soldiers.
Because there were no mid- and high-level generals, and only low-ranking officers were left, all the soldiers in Baekje naturally would not resist.
Then Cheng Bingjin began to implement a series of temporary policies of the Great Tang in Baekje, but what no one expected was that even so, on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the day before the Tang Spring Festival, a noble family in Baekje was massacred.
This nobleman is the maiden family of the king and queen of Baekje, and he is usually arrogant and domineering, so it can be said that the entire capital of Baekje is boiling with resentment, but because the other party is usually extremely powerful, and several people in the family are high-ranking generals of Baekje, and they have military power.
Who would dare to make a mistake among ordinary people? Therefore, some of the nobles of this noble family once openly robbed the people's daughters in the capital of Baekje and killed people on the street. Later, it was said that the victim tried to climb the dragon and the phoenix and seduced him.
But now, because of the takeover of the Tang Dynasty, all the nobles of Baekje have no military power, although they live in a deep mansion compound and have some family members at home, but because there is no army to protect them, and there are not many troops left in the capital by the Tang Dynasty, they are mainly stationed outside the city.
So in the end, this tragedy was caused, and the point is that no one knows who did it, because after this family was massacred, it was also set on fire by bandits, and most of a mansion was burned down.
Subsequently, the Tang army had to enter the city to garrison, but for the follow-up investigation of this matter, the Tang army directly gave the result: although the Tang army took over Baekje, it only maintained the stability of Baekje society and ensured that there would be no turmoil in Baekje.
As for some of the major cases that occurred in Baekje during this period, they will be postponed and wait for the order of the Tang Emperor, and whether they will be exchanged for the future new king of Baekje or handed over to the Tang Dynasty for investigation will require the orders of His Majesty the Tang Emperor.
And Datang's way of dealing with it, no one can say anything wrong on the surface, but secretly, it is like opening some strange prelude.
But what happened, Cheng Biting Kim doesn't care, Baekje is a small country, and there are problems, but it is easier to deal with it after the Silla side, as long as the idea of winning these people is achieved.
Datang Chang'an.
After receiving the latest news from Silla, Li Ke also went to see Li Shimin as soon as possible, and then the members of the Tang Military Department, plus important ministers such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Changsun Wuji, held an emergency meeting.
"The topic of this meeting is very simple, that is, to completely solve Goguryeo." After Li Ke first handed the information in his hand to Li Jing and the others, he directly expressed his opinion first.
