At the end of the war, the 2,000 Quang Ninh troops on the expedition suffered about 300 casualties, of which 105 were killed in battle and died due to serious wounds, and 210 were lightly and seriously wounded.

More than 300 casualties were within Sun Bin's tolerance, and the troops were not long after they became an army, and only after experiencing a real baptism of battle could they become elite troops.

After arranging the bereavement of the dead and wounded soldiers, Sun Bin began to look through the battlefield capture records handed in by Chen Zongbai.

"Four hundred old-fashioned shotguns, six hundred long knives, five hundred bows and arrows, and seventy-five thousand taels ......of silver," after a cursory reading of the records, Sun Bin closed the record book and said: "You have selected a batch of suitable shotguns to be used in the troops, and those that are damaged will be handed over to the headquarters for unified repair, and cold weapons such as broadswords and bows and arrows will be distributed to the young militia for use, and as for the silver, 60,000 taels will be handed over to the treasury for backup, and the remaining 15,000 taels will be reserved for the rewards of soldiers participating in the war." ”

"Brother Xie Guo, the next generation of brothers who participated in the war, Mr. Xie." 15,000 taels of silver were distributed to more than 1,800 people, and each person could get an average of 80 taels, and 80 taels of silver was worth the military salary of an ordinary soldier for one or two years, so Chen Zongbai would behave like this.

"Fifteen thousand taels of silver are what the brothers deserve, you don't have to thank me." Sun Bin waved his hand, thinking of the task assigned to Chen Zongbai, and asked, "How many Annan women have been recruited?" ”

"There were 24,000 people in all, most of them women between the ages of 18 and 30, and more than 3,000 teenage girls who had been orphaned by the war.

"Brother Chen is doing a good job, what is the crime?" Sun Bin picked up Chen Zongbai, who bowed his hand, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince has always advocated the continuation of some correct administrative measures in the Heavenly Kingdom period, and Brother Chen's treatment of girls is in line with the Prince's proposition, and it is too late for me to reward Brother Chen, where will I blame you." ”

"Mr. Miao, I was just soft-hearted at the time, and I didn't expect so much."

"It's okay, Brother Chen, you just need to understand that this matter is beneficial to the Wehrmacht." Sun Bin invited Chen Zongbai to sit down and continued: "There are still 200,000 brothers in Rio Grand Sul who are singles, and the proportion of Chinese men in Quang Ninh and Lang Son exceeds that of women. Sun Bin took a sip of tea, paused for a while and continued: "Due to the war in Annan, young and strong men have been seriously killed and injured, and the proportion of women of appropriate age is higher than that of men, so obtaining women from Annan is the most effective method at present. ”

"Annam women have a docile and obedient personality, and Annam has been influenced by the Central Plains culture for thousands of years, and most Annam women are willing to marry Chinese." Chen Zongbai agreed.

"Brother Chen led the troops to fight, and the women of Annam in the areas they passed through were afraid of the scourge of the rebellion and might not be willing to return with the troops, while the two provinces of Quang Ninh and Lang Son have been governed by our army for nearly a month, and the people are stable, and many women are willing to marry Chinese brothers as wives, and the number of Annam women who are willing to go to South America to divide the land has also reached nearly 40,000."

"I heard from Mr. that South America is vast and sparsely populated, and Annan women have always been hardworking and able to endure hardships, and they can help their brothers there a lot when they go to South America." Chen Zongbai said with a smile.

"Hehe, Brother Chen, don't you also want to ask an Annan woman to be your daughter-in-law?" Sun Bin quipped.

"Hi hi, don't hide it from Mr., I fell in love with an Annan woman on the road, and wanted to admit her into the door, hoping that Mr. would allow it."

"Marrying a wife and concubine is your private matter, and I can't control it."

"Alas, I understand."

"Go back and deal with your own private affairs, and I will explain a few things to you next."

"Sir, please."

"Wu Ya finally lost power, Lu Zhiping, Huang Chongying and other peasant troops were recruited, you should have heard about it, right?"

When he came back, he heard that Lu Zhiping, Huang Fusheng and others put Wu Ya under house arrest and finally took refuge in the Hue court, and then Huang Chongying and other troops followed suit in turn. The Hue court did not spend a single soldier to subdue most of the Chinese armed forces in the territory, for this reason, the lord of Annam named Huang Jiyan as a scholar of the Zhengyi Pin Qinzheng Palace and the capital of the five armies, and controlled the military and political power of the Hue court. ”

"Huang Jiyan's ability to fight is not good, but he is very good at playing with power, and through the merit of recruiting Chinese armed forces, he won the high position of the capital of the five armies in one fell swoop, and became the first person worthy of the name in northern Vietnam, and our army should be careful when dealing with him in the future."

"Although the peasant army forces have openly surrendered to the Hue imperial court, in fact, the area under their control is still the original territory, and the Annan army still can't control them, so there is no need for us to be afraid of Huang Jiyan."

"We must guard against Huang Jiyan secretly sowing discord and disrupting the balance between the various Chinese armed forces."

Chen Zongbai looked like he didn't understand, Sun Bin didn't continue to go deeper, and said: "Our army is rich in strength and is not afraid of the Annan army's open and dark arrows, I told you that these are to give you a wake-up call in advance, so that you can be mentally prepared."

The situation in Annam has returned to stability, and Huang Jiyan has to deal with the affairs of the Hue court on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to deal with the annexation ambitions of the French, and he will not provoke the Chinese armed forces in the north for a short time, so taking advantage of this time, the troops mainly do two things: the first is to train the whole army and improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, and the second is to send people into Guangxi Province to recruit the surviving brothers of the Kingdom of Heaven and the young and strong refugees.

I have made my own arrangements for sending people into Guangxi, and the fleet from South America will arrive in a few days, and the officers and foreign instructors who will come with the ship will assist you and the other commanders of the troops in training the troops. ”

"Don't worry, sir, I won't let other brothers laugh at you."

Sun Bin talked to him alone to explain that he attached importance to him, so Chen Zongbai immediately expressed his position. ……

After the armed civil strife of the peasant army, which posed the greatest threat to the Qing army in Guangxi, only a few thousand young and strong remained, and the territory occupied by them shrank by nearly half.

The remaining forces of the peasant army led by Lu Zhiping and Huang Fusheng were greatly reduced, and they lost their threat to the Qing army in Guangxi after being recruited by the Annan court.

The people do not raise officials and do not hold them accountable, the peasant army defects to the Annan court and no longer makes trouble for the Guangxi officials, those Manchu officials who are usually high in the sky are happy to be idle, coupled with some operation, the Guangxi officials do not know how much money they spent, and they fished out Wu Yazhong, who was under house arrest, from the hands of the peasant army, and then successfully formed a chapter, exterminated the peasant army, and beheaded the rebellious leader Wu Yazhong became the credit of the Guangxi officials, and took this opportunity to expelled Feng Zicai from Guangxi by the Guangxi governor and political envoy who had always looked down on Feng Zicai's Taiping army. He was sent to the front line of Yungui to suppress bandits with his officers and soldiers to listen to orders, and Feng Zicai's vacant position as the governor of Guangxi was held by Xie Jigui, the military commander.

Xie Jigui is a close confidant of Zhang Kaisong, the governor of Guangxi, in the original history, Wu Ya's final counterattack on Taiping failed, Zhang Kaisong in order to give him additional military merits, replace Feng Zicai's position, ordered Xie Jigui to send troops to Annan to encircle and suppress Wu Yazhong's remnants, but there was no result for a long time, and Feng Zicai had to send troops to quell the rebellion, so Feng Zicai sat on the position of Guangxi governor for 20 years. And this time Xie Jigui did not suffer defeat, and used Wu Yazhong's head to get what he wanted, and Feng Zicai could only leave in disgrace to make room for Xie Jigui.
