Long Tian's idea was not wrong. The best way to conquer was to turn the enemy into one's own people.

The barbarians were backward because of many problems such as education. They were all human beings, so there were no pure barbarians.

It was just that the current situation in the North was not able to conquer and utilize the barbarians.

Whether it was building a city or launching a war of conquest, it was very costly. Today, the self-sufficiency of the North was still a problem, and there was no sufficient strength and resources to deal with the outside world.

"Order Ran Min to focus on defense, and at the same time find a way to investigate the situation inside the barbarians and prepare for our future actions."

Long Tian made a decision.

"Your Highness, Xiang Yu and others have now successfully controlled the Zhenbei Army. Should we also take action on the city guards of each city?"

Bai Qi raised another question.

"There are dozens of cities in the North. We cannot directly send troops to attack them, and we have limited generals. Jia Xu, what do you think is a better way for us to control these cities?"

For this, Long Tian has not thought of a suitable solution for the time being.

"Your Highness, I think we can directly summon all the city lords and the main generals of the city to come to Zhenbei City to report on their work. In this way, we can also judge their attitudes."

"In addition, we can make use of General Gao Shun's expertise. The cultivation of the Northern Border City Guards is generally first-grade warriors, which is not very useful to be honest."

"Why not take this opportunity to let General Gao Shun select some people and train them individually, and strive to break through to the second grade as soon as possible. In this way, we can also expand the strength of the Zhenbei Army in disguise."

Jia Xu gave his own suggestions.

"Your Highness, this is a good idea. If they are not guilty, these people will come here. If they don't come, we can deal with them in a targeted manner."

"Moreover, this is indeed an opportunity to expand the Zhenbei Army. Our recruitment during this period has not been very effective. Currently, there are not even 10,000 people. This is mainly because the population of my northern border is limited."

"Almost all the forces in other parts of Xia Kingdom are also recruiting soldiers to expand their strength. It is not easy for us to snatch people. It is better to directly train these ready-made city guards."

Bai Qi and others agreed with Jia Xu's proposal.

This is the situation in Xia Kingdom now. Not only are the forces in various places expanding their forces openly and secretly, but even the forces in Kyoto, including the royal family, are not idle.

The northern border does not have much advantage in this regard.

In this world, it is not difficult to cultivate internal strength and become a first-class warrior, but the difficulty will increase exponentially with each step up.

Second- and third-grade warriors are resources that various forces are fighting for, but first-grade warriors are ignored. These people can only become city guards. They are good at protecting a city, but they are basically not needed in major wars.

"Okay, but it is also difficult for us to train city guards, especially the skills. There are many low-level skills, but not many are suitable for the army."

Skills are also a key factor that limits a person's growth. The reason why the family is powerful is because they control these resources.

Ordinary people want to change their fate, except for those who have the opportunity to change their fate, they can only work for these families in exchange for skills and other resources.

Bai Qi and others also frowned after hearing this. Although they are all generals in the army and the skills they have learned are suitable for killing on the battlefield, the skills they have learned are of high level and are not suitable for everyone.

"Let's do this, General Gao Shun, the training of soldiers will be handed over to you. As for the skills, this prince will provide you with some low-level skills. You can study and see if you can improve them."

There is no way, it can only be like this for the time being.

"Wait, I have a solution. Let's do this. Bai Qi, immediately order all the city guards and the city lords to report to the Northern Palace in three days."

"Regarding the training plan for the city guards, you should make a plan. Don't affect the public security of each city. I want our northern border to have no city guards in the future. All of them will become the Zhenbei Army, a stronger Zhenbei Army."

Suddenly, just when Long Tian was about to give up, the voice of the system sounded. It turned out that the task of controlling the northern border was completed. Now the Zhenbei Army was completely under control, and there were 20 gifted masters such as Bai Qi. The stability of the northern border was basically no problem. This was considered to have completed the task.

Looking at the options in the list, Long Tian suddenly changed his decision.

It's good to have a system. Problems can be solved in time.

Although everyone didn't know why Long Tian changed his mind, they thought there was a way to solve it.

"Jia Xu, there is nothing wrong with your plan, right? We can't let Zhen Wude ruin our plan."

Long Tian asked.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. When the lords and generals of each city arrive at Zhenbei City,The day Zhen Wude left the northern border."

Jia Xu was very confident.

"Cao Zhengchun, how is your plan going?"

Recently, Cao Zhengchun's main task is to establish an intelligence network and vigorously develop intelligence personnel.

"Your Highness, the Shadow has been initially built and can be used at any time."

Cao Zhengchun is very busy. The establishment of the Shadow is not like conscription, which can be carried out openly.

"We must ensure quality and quantity, and we would rather have less than less. You know the importance of intelligence, so I won't say more."

"Recently, check the whereabouts of the palace guards Long Qi and Long Ba."

These two people have been with Long Tian for nearly 20 years. Now their whereabouts are unknown. Long Tian is very worried. If possible, Long Tian must find them.

"Bai Qi, how is the situation with Yue Fei? Are there still many refugees pouring in? ”

Recently, there have been a lot of refugees pouring in, which has also brought great pressure to Yue Fei. The food delivery to Zhenbei City has never stopped.

"Yes, Your Highness, this matter must be manipulated by someone. If nothing unexpected happens, it must be related to Qingzhou."

"These people want to take advantage of our unstable foothold and internal chaos to send in a large number of refugees to disintegrate our economy and food reserves. There are even many people with ulterior motives mixed in with the refugees, trying to incite the refugees to make trouble."

"Fortunately, Yue Fei arrived in time, and with the food support provided by Your Highness, there was no trouble. General Yue Fei has killed hundreds of impure people under strict investigation."

Long Tian was not surprised. This is indeed a good way to target the North.

"Tell Yue Fei that anyone with a purpose, no matter who they are, should be killed by this prince, don't have any concerns."

"In addition, we can't keep these refugees for nothing. We have to find things for them to do in exchange for food. Those who don't obey should either get out of the North or die. ”

It is impossible to support idle people, and there are hidden dangers. After all, there are too few people who know how to repay their gratitude, and there are many ungrateful people.
