Chapter 463 The two southern countries are dishonest

This is a very beautiful victory in itself. We are about to report victory to Chang'an City, but suddenly a big problem is thrown at us. If these more than one million people cannot eat, they may be hungry after one or two meals.

But as time goes by, these people may rebel. How did they live their lives when we were not here?

"Back to the general, we have also investigated this matter. Most people also eat grass roots and bark, and their daily consumption is extremely limited. We don't need to give them too much food. We just need to let them eat some every day. About ten people can

It consumes as much as one of our soldiers."

Hearing the answer from his quartermaster, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that these are more than one million people. Even if the supply for them is slightly less, it is by no means a small number. Now if only ten people are needed

If it were one-third of the grain, many things would be easier to talk about.

"Distributing the seeds I brought cannot leave them idle. If they are left idle, there will be all kinds of things to do every day to keep them busy. Another 400,000 people will be transferred to Jiangbei.

go."

Li Xiang thought for a while and said, if the people in the prisoner of war camp have something to do, they will have less time to think independently every day, but if you don't arrange life for them, then these people may think about freedom and rebellion every day.

, so Li Xiang had to keep them busy.

Normal seeds have already passed the sowing time this season, but Li Xiang's seeds were redeemed from the system, so if you plant them at this time, you will still get a harvest, and you will have a harvest in three months. As for these three

For months, they could only eat gruel every day.

Goguryeo's population in the south of the Yangtze River is a bit large, but there is a lot of land in the north of the Yangtze River, so Li Xiang has to reconcile it and transport all these hundreds of thousands of people to the north of the Yangtze River and let them cultivate the land there, even if you people all die there.

, as long as it can be exchanged for a granary for Datang, it is worth it, and I am not afraid of any infamy.

"It's cold in the north now. If we send them there, we have to equip them with some cotton-padded clothes. So the money..."

Su Dingfang said with some distress, our soldiers all wear a lot of cotton-padded clothes, but if these Goguryeo people are also equipped with them, is it a bit too much? You must know that many people in the Tang Dynasty do not have cotton-padded clothes.

"You have to invest when you should invest. Otherwise, there will be no harvest in the future. Some of our soldiers will continue to go south. What are they wearing these cotton clothes for? Are they going to the south to sweat? In addition, we searched the surrounding villages.

In a place where millions of people live, it shouldn't be difficult to find clothes worn by 400,000 people. Just treat it as loaned to them first, and then pay us back when the food they grow comes out."

Li Xiang's words made everyone nod. Li Xiang's method is okay. We are not driving all the people over, but only a part of them. We will provide some of them in several places. These people's warm clothes

That's considered solved.

After that, we will also provide them with basic living security. Of course, it will also depend on their ability to complete the task. If nothing is cultivated after that, then you will freeze to death in the ice and snow. This world is a world of the jungle and the strong.

There aren't that many human rights to speak of.

After arranging these things, the generals in the tent all went out to work. Although it is relatively simple to say, it is enough to keep these generals busy for several days, and even several days may not be completed.

"What is the general thinking?"

When Li Xiang turned around, he found General Li Jing staring at the map.

"Your Highness, come and see, we are in this position now. The remaining land of Goguryeo is less than three hundred miles in depth from north to south, let alone the army. In the next battle, I think there may be a hard battle."

General Li Jing frowned and said, "We came from Jiangbei and caught Goguryeo off guard. Coupled with Gai Yuansu Wen's policy mistakes on the front line, we have achieved what we have now. If we continue to move south,

, there may be a hard battle, because the land of Goguryeo has shrunk and a large number of people have gathered in this land, so we may have to face a large number of Goguryeo soldiers and residents every time we take a step forward.

"The general is right. Even if only some of them resist, it is not a small number for us. From the launch of the attack to now, our casualties can be said to be minimal. However, in the next battle, our casualties may be only

It’s going up.”

Li Xiang is the last person who wants his troops to suffer casualties, but it is impossible to fight without casualties. Even in the 21st century, all countries insist on zero casualties, but in real combat, no matter what your skills are,

No matter how advanced it is, it can only reduce casualties as much as possible, but it is impossible to achieve zero casualties.

"Then do you think this is okay? They have indeed sent back many people. This area has been overloaded. Originally, this area could only accommodate more than one million people, but now it can accommodate more than four million people.

People, they already have no food, so why don’t we postpone the attack and seal the northern line, and at the same time write to Silla and Baekje, asking them to also seal the southern line of defense to trap these people.

.”

General Li Jing thought for a while and said, although everyone pays attention to a quick battle, but judging from the current situation, if a quick battle is really needed, then the loss of the Tang army will definitely not be a small number. If we besiege one or two

In a few months, internal fighting may start, and by then we may be able to occupy this place without any effort.

"The general is right. This is also a good way. We can block the northern defense line, but can Silla and Baekje listen to us? Neither of them has much population. This is a way to increase their population.

good chance."

Li Xiang said with some doubts that the two countries have expressed their willingness to become vassal states of the Tang Dynasty, but they may not necessarily be obedient when it comes to operating these matters. Now population is the most important resource. The reason why Goguryeo can claim to be on the peninsula

The king dominates because its population far exceeds that of the other two countries.

Now that Goguryeo has collapsed, the other two countries also want to take advantage of this catastrophe, so absorbing people from Goguryeo is the most important channel.??
