In fact, Lee Shin decided to make this arrangement not only for the soldiers of the northward-bound army, but also for the soldiers captured in the Silla war.

Besides farming and land reclamation, working in mines and as a miner are also options!

This has always been Dongning's policy!

Meanwhile, in Silla, the next step is to recruit militia from various parts of Dongning to form patrol police teams responsible for defending Silla.

Back in Gilju, when Liu Zheng, the commander of the Divine Martial Army, learned of this news, he also began to negotiate with the Silla advisors.

Given their disadvantageous position, the Silla army heading north had no chance of turning back.

Left with no other choice, I had to agree to the request.

After the negotiations concluded, the Silla army marching north laid down their weapons and surrendered to King Shin's army.

These 40,000 to 50,000 people were also sent in batches to Dongning and Liaodong to be placed under local supervision, as required.

As for General Jin and his group of generals, they were also taken to the mountains and forests of Dongning to live in seclusion.

With this, the entire war in Silla came to an end.

Under the thunderous action of King Shin's army, the war against Silla was quickly brought to an end.

However, Lee Shin did not rush to leave Silla.

After all, Li Xin still had an urgent matter to attend to.

That was the matter of handling the aftermath for Silla.

"Your Highness,"

Zhao Bingzhang frowned and said, "Silla is located in the heart of Dongning and Liaodong, bordering our Dongning and Liaodong. Now, it has been occupied by us, and the entire territory is under our control. Therefore, we can no longer allow them to become independent. In my opinion, we should establish our own rule in Silla. Only in this way can we ensure the long-term stability of the Silla region."

"this……"

Li Xin frowned as he listened to Zhao Bingzhang's words, deep in thought.

How to deal with Silla is indeed a problem.

However, what Zhao Bingzhang said also makes sense.

After all, it was a place on the outskirts of the country. If it continued to be ruled by the King of Silla, there was no guarantee that Silla would rebel again one day, which would be a loss.

Perhaps, establishing direct rule over Dongning would be a good option!

Li Xin hesitated for a long time before nodding and saying, "That's fine! Let's do it according to Mr. Zhao's wishes. Silla will be established as a province, with Silla City as its capital!"

Officials were transferred from Dongning Province to take over Silla Province and implement the Dongning policy.

In addition, Liu Jingxuan was appointed as the Governor-General of Silla Province, with full authority over Silla's military and political affairs.

Liu Jingxuan is an old man from Dongning!

Historically, he served in Dongning Province and was in charge of all affairs in Dongning.

The fact that Liu Jingxuan was transferred to Silla Province this time is enough to show how much Li Xin values ​​Silla Province.

As Zhao Bingzhang said, Silla was the heartland of Dongning and Liaodong, and the peace of Silla was crucial to the peace of Dongning and Liaodong.

With Silla's territory secure, Dongning had no worries about its rear.

Dongning is also able to wholeheartedly deal with threats from within the Great Wall and the grasslands!

This was also the solution devised by Li Xin, Zhao Bingzhang, and others to break the deadlock.

After Li Xin issued the order, Dongning also dispatched 10,000 to 20,000 militiamen to enter Xinluo Province.

Liu Jingxuan also arrived in Silla City by land.

A group of officials also began to take over the administration of Silla Province.

In particular, the Dongning policy, after being implemented in Silla Province, also garnered widespread support from the people.

After occupying Silla, they confiscated all the land owned by the former prime minister Kim Tae and his close relatives.

These large families, especially the Jin family, own a lot of fertile land.

A rough estimate reveals that the area is in the hundreds of thousands of acres.

As instructed by Li Xin, Liu Jingxuan distributed all the land to the displaced people.

Those people who lost their land were deeply grateful to Dongning and to Prince Xin after they received their land.

Silla was, after all, a newly occupied territory of Dongning, and there were no conflicts of interest there.

Lee Shin did not intend to rely on the local gentry and powerful clans to rule Silla.

Therefore, in addition to large families such as Kim Tae, all the smaller families and landowners with large tracts of land within Silla territory were also liquidated.

All the land that has been occupied in excess shall be returned and distributed to the displaced people.

The land redistribution plan implemented in Silla led the people of Silla to overwhelmingly support the Dongnyeong army.

With the addition of policies such as five-year tax exemption for farmland and exemption from poll tax, the local people were overjoyed.

In some fields and along the roads, people knelt down, shouting, "Long live Prince Xin! Long live Prince Xin!"

With a series of measures, and relying on the militia and the intimidation of the army, the process was carried out quite quickly.

Therefore, the takeover of Silla Province's administration proceeded without major setbacks.

While Liu Jingxuan and others took over the administration of Silla Province, Li Xin also ordered the Tiger Army and the Divine Warrior Army to assemble in the vicinity of Silla City.

After the pacification of Silla, Dongning opened up new opportunities!

Inside Silla Castle.

Li Xin, Zhao Bingzhang, Wei Dahai, Liu Zheng, Liu Jingxuan and others gathered here.

"Gentlemen,"

Looking at everyone, Li Xin said, "The battle against Silla has come to an end. The strategy we devised to break the deadlock has also been successfully implemented."

With the territory behind Silla secure, we can now turn our attention elsewhere.

And here, there's not much left to do.

As he spoke, Li Xin looked at Liu Jingxuan and continued, "The aftermath of the Silla crisis will be handled by Liu Jingxuan. Things here are basically done."

Next, we need to consider our next course of action!

Upon hearing this, Wei Dahai and Liu Zheng's faces lit up with excitement.

They already know a little about the next steps.

At this moment, Li Xin continued, "The next action plan is naturally to launch a long-distance expedition across the sea!"

However, this expedition will take place in Daiyue Province!

We plan to cut off the canal from behind, thus severing the capital's logistical supply.

In this way, together with our special operations forces on the Yulin front and in various parts of the interior, we will be able to take the capital in one fell swoop!

Victory is just around the corner!

Liu Zheng, your unit should immediately begin reorganization and training during this period.

Once the Dongning warships and transport ships arrive at Silla City, we will immediately board them and cross the sea to launch a long expedition to Mount Dai!

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Liu Zheng quickly agreed.

This time, their Divine Martial Army was the only force to cross the sea on the expedition, so Liu Zheng was very excited.

"Your Highness,"

Wei Dahai scratched his head and asked, "What about our Tiger Legion?"

"The Tiger Warriors, follow me!"

Li Xin said, "Let's go to Yulin City!"

"To Yulin City?"

Wei Dahai frowned, then realized that there was also fighting in Yulin City, so he didn't say anything more.

After finalizing the next steps, the entire Silla region began to mobilize.

Meanwhile, merchant ships and transport vessels from Dongning arrived at Xinluo City, and Liu Zheng's Shenwu Army boarded the ships and sailed off into the distance.
