Chapter 306: News from the Quartet
War is a new distribution of wealth.
From the opening of the camp in Jinling on the fifth day of the second month to the liquidation and seizure of Zhu Qiang, in just over a month, the Scouts harvested nearly 100,000 taels of gold and more than 700,000 taels of silver.
Among these silver coins, 20% went to the Taiwei Mansion, 10% went to Chuzhou logistics, and the remaining 70% was distributed by the upper and lower soldiers, plus the battle damage pension.
Rao is like this, everyone has a good harvest.
Among them, the soldiers with military merits, in addition to the rewards of real money, must also be on the merit book, and promoted according to merit.
Huo Bao's two companions, An Changsheng, Li Yu, and Jia Daishan, were not idle this time.
An Changsheng and Jia Daishan practiced martial arts, and they did not follow Huo Bao's side, but followed Hou Xiaoming's troops to fight Wujiang County.
Due to the main battle of the magistrate and the county lieutenant of Wujiang County, the county soldiers resisted desperately, making the battle in Wujiang very tragic.
More than 300 child soldiers were killed in the battle, and more than 700 were seriously wounded and slightly injured.
Similarly, the child soldiers killed more than 500 enemies, seriously wounded and captured more than 2,000.
An Changsheng and Jia Daishan both made military merits.
"I beheaded one person and seriously injured two!"
Jia Daishan hung his arms, and when he talked about the battle a few days ago, he still shuddered.
On the battlefield, there is no time to think too much; After the battle, remembering the sound of a sharp blade entering the flesh, he felt a cold hair stand up.
But a few days passed, and when he remembered the tension and excitement of the battlefield, he only had an aftertaste.
If he had to do it all over again, he wouldn't have been so frustrated.
Not only did he behead one person, but also injured himself.
Thinking of this, he glanced at An Changsheng and was grateful.
At that time, the situation was urgent, and a county soldier targeted Jia Daishan.
He's old here, he's inexperienced, and he's critical.
If An Changsheng hadn't pulled him, he wouldn't have had a skin injury, and his arm would have been cut off.
If he really wants to become one-armed for the first time on the battlefield, then he will become a big joke.
An Changsheng is much more stable than Jia Daishan, and he doesn't babble about his exploits like him.
The exploits of war are recorded in the merit book, and what is preached, those who should know will know.
Huo Bao looked at the two of them and felt a toothache.
One pretends to be an adult, and the other is really old.
If it was according to his original intention, he didn't want the two teenagers to face the killing at such a young age.
Both of them are eleven or twelve years old, and they are still elementary school students in later generations.
But Jia Daishan is not very old, and he has already shown his belligerent side, and this time he is also desperate to fight with the trip.
An Changsheng is here, a disciple of the general, and the future successor of the water master, and he cannot be regarded as an ordinary child.
Jia Daishan beheaded one person, An Changsheng beheaded three people, if according to the rules of the army, the former can be promoted to captain, and the latter can be promoted to ten chiefs.
"Dai Shan, follow the Great Sage in the future!"
Huo Bao has an arrangement: "Remember the merits of immortality, and enjoy the treatment of longevity." ”
If Jia Daishan wants to be a general, he must work on his qualifications step by step.
The future second-generation Guogong will never be able to be scrapped.
An Changsheng trained beside Huo Bao, and then he wanted to return to the water division to serve, and his military merits were saved first.
The two had no objections, Li Yu looked at the two with envy in his eyes.
Huo Bao looked in his eyes and didn't say anything.
On this expedition, Li Yu followed Zhu Qiang's side to fight, and he also had some credit, but it was not comparable to military merits, and it was not to the point of being included in the merit book.
Let's see later.
At the end of March, the main force of the "Eastern Expeditionary Army" led by Deng Jian returned to Suzhou.
After resting for a few more days, the army divided into two routes and returned to Jinling by water and land.
The generals of the navy division escorted the ministers of the three prefectures and captured the waterway back to Jinling.
Deng Jian and Huo Bao returned to Jinling by land.
The sailor has a building boat, and naturally the waterway is more comfortable than the land route.
But the water and fire are ruthless, and now it is the spring flood of the Yangtze River, and the water is turbulent, in order to be safe, Deng Jian took Huo Bao by land.
Four hundred and twenty miles from Suzhou Mansion to Nanjing, Deng Jian and others walked for 10 days and returned to Jinling on April 15.
In two and a half months, the land of Sanfu was all returned to the Chuzhou army.
The whole city of Jinling was shocked.
The tens of thousands of defenders in Suzhou before have always been uneasy, but now that the place has been leveled, the Chuzhou army is really stable.
Even if the 100,000 imperial court soldiers and horses in Hangzhou really moved, the Chuzhou army had no worries and would not be afraid.
Huo Wu took the generals who stayed behind in Jinling and personally greeted them outside the city.
"Good, good, Bokang is a great contribution!"
Huo Wu looked at the tens of thousands of troops, watched the seizure of hundreds of cars, and patted Deng Jian's shoulder with deep emotion.
Taizhou Baishan was surrounded by the counterinsurgency army before, and the Taizhou army had no way to ask for help.
I didn't want to have a sudden change in mid-March, the rebel lord was demoted and transferred, given poisoned wine, and hundreds of thousands of Shanxi troops were leaderless and defeated by the Taizhou army.
The Taizhou army took the opportunity to capture more than 100,000 imperial soldiers and horses, and had prepared a ferry before, wanting to cross the river to capture Suzhou and Songjiang.
After receiving the news that the Chuzhou army had captured Sanfu, Taizhou Baiyi turned around and did not cross the river.
There are many soldiers in Chuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, but the white shirts of the provinces in Henan Province are like scattered sand, and the Taizhou army will naturally not come to touch the hard bone of the Chuzhou army.
The "Eastern Expeditionary Army" successfully captured Changzhou, Suzhou, and Songjiang before the Taizhou Army, obtained three kinds of resources, iron, grain, and salt, and also drilled soldiers and horses along the way.
"There are also good news in Luzhou, Shuzhou at the end of February, and Shouzhou in mid-March!"
Huo Wu reported good news to everyone.
At the beginning of the year, the "Five States Raiders" were formulated, and they were all in hand.
However, what is worrying is that the nest of the Qi Chun army was copied by the imperial court to suppress the rebels, the first general under the Qi Chun army Shou Tianwan was killed, and the main force of the Qi Chun army withdrew from Jiangbei and went south to Wuchang Mansion.
Wuchang Mansion is a thousand miles away from Jinling Mansion.
Due to the "Eastern Expedition" and "Southern Expedition" of the Qichun Army last year, most of the territory of the Qichun Army and the Chuzhou Army has been occupied by the Qichun Army.
Even if the men and horses are lost this time and the old nest Qichun is lost, there are more than a dozen state capitals actually occupied by the Qichun army.
Even if the Chuzhou Army completes its strategy this spring, it will only have twelve state capitals, and it will not be able to compare with the Qichun Army for the time being.
"But there is a change in Beijing?"
Deng Jian asked.
Qi Chunjun's side is thousands of miles away from Jinling, and the two places are not right for a while; The Taizhou Army is close to Yangzhou, and it is only separated by a river from Suzhou and Songjiang.
A good counterinsurgency general, if he says that he will be poisoned, he will be poisoned, which is too strange.
"The emperor has made a prince!"
Huo Wu shook his head and said: "I'm really dizzy, I actually poisoned the generalissimo of counterinsurgency for this!" ”
The year of the emperor's establishment is the time to establish the crown prince.
However, because he had no sons-in-law, the emperor loved the sons of the concubines, which caused the dissatisfaction of the descendants.
The queen was born in a noble family, and her uncles and brothers are all leading generals, and they control forty percent of the soldiers and horses in the world.
The queen's concubine died young, and she wanted to set up a palace man who was raised as the crown prince.
In order to establish the crown prince, the emperor wrestled with the descendants, first ignored the local erosion, and then used this to weaken the power of the descendants.
As early as last year, the imperial court sent troops and horses to "recover" Hangzhou Mansion, and the emperor did something and transferred a marshal from the descendant clan.
This time, the Shanxi troops were transferred to the south, and the old trick was repeated.
"It's crazy!"
Huo Bao also felt inexplicable when he mentioned this emperor: "Is this a slow fear of the defeat of the world?" A capable general, either killed, or idle, when he married someone else's daughter, he wanted to cross the river and tear down the bridge after borrowing power? If you really have that ability, it would be okay to find a replacement person, or if you can gather military power, but you are a fool, and the good situation has been ruined! ”
Although the white shirts of Taizhou are ostentatious, there are only two states, hundreds of thousands of troops came down to quell the rebellion, and they were surrounded to death, and victory was a matter of time or time.
But this defeated emperor didn't want to "recover" the place, but was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with the general's victory, so he found an excuse to transfer the main general, so that the battle situation was reversed immediately.
Master Lin touched his beard and said, "If the sky wants it to die, it will make it crazy!" ”
The owner of the horse village pouted and said: "Grind and chirp, set up a prince, and set up a prince for three years, if you really do it, you will directly abolish the queen...... If you use it for a while, and sharpen it for a while, you won't be afraid of forcing the descendants to rebel! ”
Deng Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "If only the Jin family could rebel!" ”
The Jin family is the biggest general today, with more than a dozen generals.
Jin Cuo is just an illegitimate child, raised in the Shu Branch, and his qualifications are much stronger than ordinary people.
In this "Eastern Crusade", the general with the greatest meritorious service was Jin Cuo.
Deng Jian loves talents, and he really can't wait for a few more Jin family members.
