Before Li Xuan led tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians south to Liuzhou City, the more than 10,000 troops led by Hao Bonian could not wait idly in Liuzhou City.

Although they also need time to recuperate and recharge, it may take a month or two!

In the battle of attacking the capital city of Liuzhou, the losses of the southbound army were certainly there, but it also took so long to rest and replenish.

In the Battle of Liuzhou City, the casualties among the southbound army were relatively large among the 3rd Garrison Brigade and Tusi Soldiers, and the casualties of the 1st Infantry Brigade and the affiliated regular armies were relatively small.

Among them, the 3rd Garrison Brigade suffered about 500 casualties, the Tusi soldiers suffered more than 300 casualties, and the 1st Infantry Brigade, artillery, baggage, and other units combined suffered about 300 casualties.

The total number of casualties is about a thousand!

But this is actually acceptable for a siege force of more than 10,000 people, especially for such a storm.

You must know that they not only conquered the city of Liuzhou, but also annihilated all the tens of thousands of Ming army defenders in the city.

Thanks to the fact that the Liuzhou capital city faces the Liujiang River on three sides, and the north side without the river is the main direction of attack of the Tang Dynasty's royal division, so that after the city was broken, the Ming army in the city could not escape at all, among which more than 3,000 people died in battle or were seriously injured, more than 4,000 people surrendered one after another, and some were scattered throughout the city, they took off their military uniforms, threw away their weapons and returned home.

At present, the Tang Dynasty is continuing to clean up in the city.

After the southbound army ended the battle of Liuzhou City, on the one hand, it cleared Liuzhou City, and on the other hand, it also began to rest and replenish on the spot.

Among them, the replenishment of the Third Garrison Brigade was the easiest, and more than 500 people were directly selected from the surrendered Ming army to replenish on the spot, and in less than two days, the Third Garrison Brigade, which had suffered heavy losses, became the first to restore full strength.

The personnel of the First Infantry Brigade and other units were also replenished simply, and the training department directly supplemented more than 200 newly trained personnel, and also selected some personnel from the surrendered Ming army to supplement them.

Strictly speaking, these Tusi soldiers do not belong to a part of the Tang Army, but the local Tusi soldiers in order to express their hearts to the Tang Dynasty, each family sent a different number of soldiers, and the follow-up soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are naturally irrelevant, and they need to be supplemented by each Tusi themselves.

Moreover, in the battle of Liuzhou City, the combat effectiveness of this Tusi soldiers was still good, although the casualties were not small, but it effectively reduced the pressure on the Tang Army.

Therefore, after the war, Hao Bonian asked the Tusi in Liuzhou to continue to replenish their troops and restore the strength to the previous 1,500 people, and gave the Tusi soldiers the official name: Liuzhou Independent Regiment, which will have three infantry battalions.

Although the officers of this Liuzhou Independent Regiment are still not the officers of the Tang Dynasty's division, but the leaders of those Tusi, the Tang Dynasty has sent some so-called liaison officers to this unit on the grounds that it is better to cooperate with the Tang Army, and these liaison officers will serve as deputy positions of regiments, battalions, and teams.

The Tang Dynasty is doing this, naturally with the intention of completely incorporating these Tusi soldiers into the Tang Army in the future, but at present, the Tang Dynasty still needs to win over these local Tusi, and it is not good to do too much, so it can only take its time.

Although the various units of the southward army have not yet been replenished, they have not continued to stay in Liuzhou, and the second infantry regiment, the third garrison brigade and the second cavalry battalion of the first infantry brigade have already moved south to Xiangzhou first.

And Hao Bonian stayed in Liuzhou City with the rest of the part, waiting for Li Xuan's arrival!

And Li Xuan also took the Fifth Infantry Regiment and the Guards Battalion, the First Cavalry Battalion and the main civil and military senior officials to the south first, when the soldiers and civilians in the rear had just entered Guangxi, the troops led by Li Xuan had already arrived in Huaiyuan.

Then he took the ship prepared by the Navy and the Logistics Department directly down the river, and it is expected to arrive at Liuzhou Capital City in three days!

The holy car is about to arrive in the capital city of Liuzhou, and Hao Bonian and other civil and military officials on the side of Liuzhou are also preparing to welcome the arrival of the holy car.

For example, a large number of people were recruited to repair the destroyed city walls, clean up the corpses in the war, and then clean up the main streets in the city, and cover them with loess, and order every household not to dump garbage directly on the street in front of their homes.

Except for a very few, there are not many bluestone pavements on the streets of these years, and most of them are dirt roads, even in big cities such as Nanjing and Jingshi, when it rains, the streets are full of mud.

And no one pays attention to any hygiene these days, the dung of horses and other livestock is pulled casually, and no one cleans it up, so don't be surprised when you walk on the bustling street and step on a bubble of, don't be surprised to smell the smell of feces and urine, that's normal.

If you don't step on that bubble of, you're embarrassed to say it's a bustling street!

When Li Xuan settled in Xingquan Mansion City before, he was surprised and deeply disgusted by the urban sanitation environment of this era.

In the city of Xingquanfu, extremely strict hygiene management measures have been implemented, strictly prohibiting people from defecating anywhere, throwing household garbage at will, and even more prohibiting people's livestock from pooping and urinating on the streets.

Catch one and punish one!

To this end, Li Xuan also set up a pilot city management office in Xingquan Mansion, which directly belonged to the Xingquan Mansion Patrol Police Bureau, and their responsibility was to manage the sanitation, buildings and other messy things in the city, which were basically similar to the urban management of later generations!

Since the day of its establishment, the Xingquanfu City Management Office has exerted its incomparable combat effectiveness, and its combat power is illustrious, comparable to the Datang tax inspection team, and countless personnel wearing the 'chengguan' armbands of the city management office are wandering around the streets, closely monitoring the entire city, so that many criminal dealers who defecate and take out garbage have nothing to hide, and obediently pay the fine!

Through the strict management of the city management office, especially the heavy fines, the appearance of the city in Heungcheon Province has undergone great changes, at least the situation of open defecation, garbage, feces and urine is no longer happening.

In order to let His Majesty arrive in Liuzhou City and see a clean and tidy Liuzhou City, Ma Wei, the prefect of Liuzhou Mansion, personally led a team to sort out the dirty and messy problems in Liuzhou Mansion, and in just a few days, a total of thousands of fines were imposed, and more than 1,000 taels of silver were fined, which not only made Liuzhou City look new, but also contributed more than 1,000 taels of silver to the newly established patrol police station.

In addition to these, it is also necessary to prepare the palace, the offices of the ministries and yamen, and even the residences of high-ranking officials.

Li Xuan did not come with a large army alone, but with an entire royal family and all the officials and family members of the Tang Dynasty such as the cabinet and the Privy Council.

When these people come, they must have an office location, and they also need a place to live!

Li Xuan's palace was originally intended to be set up in the Liuzhou Mansion, but the previous Liuzhou Governors are estimated to be unwilling to bear an extravagant and wasteful reputation, and it is estimated that the Mansion has not been repaired for decades, resulting in this Mansion is in tatters, if it is to be repaired, it is estimated that the amount of reconstruction is about the same, but if it is not repaired, do you dare to let the emperor and the Queen Mother and the Empress live here? What if the house collapses one day?

At this time, everyone looked around in Liuzhou City, and found that they seized a residence of a big salt merchant who was quite good, whether it was the scale of the land or the degree of luxury, leaving hundreds of streets behind the mansion, in addition, the salt merchant's house happened to be near the mansion, and there were many original Ming army yamen institutions and some large family residences next to it.

It was just right to build a political center around the salt merchant's house.

After some discussion among the civil officials who greeted the holy driver, they agreed that the confiscated salt merchant's mansion was more suitable as a palace than the government office.

Therefore, it was to send people back north to report to Li Xuan, after all, this was to find a place for Li Xuan to live, and they couldn't decide on their own.

Li Xuan didn't think it mattered about this, he prided himself on being a person with great ideals!

When he led the army to the battle, he could even sleep in a tent, and he had lived in the broken mansion in Xingquan Mansion for so long, and the temporary palace that everyone found for him must be more than a tent, so he directly recognized it with a stroke of the pen.

After Li Xuanren, who was still far away in Huaiyuan, approved, many officials who arrived first began to prepare, and then the female officials of the palace inner courtyard, who arrived a day earlier, also arrived in Liuzhou City with some extremely strong women, and then began to pack up in detail.

After returning to Xingquan Mansion from Liping Mansion, Li Xuan felt that there were many people in the palace, and it became more troublesome to manage.

So he officially established the institution of the Imperial Household Court, but unlike the outside institutions, the people in this institution are all women.

Its institution is similar to the eunuch institution of the Ming Dynasty, but the accusation of this palace is very pure, that is, to take care of the daily life of the royal family, and it is limited to that.

At present, more than 100 female officials and maids in the palace are all under the management of the palace inner court.

Li Xuan's establishment of the palace inner court and the female official system was used to replace the eunuchs in previous dynasties!

The eunuch, a product that violates human nature, is obviously not in line with the greatest and most advanced industrial country of our time, and represents the Tang Dynasty of the new direction of human development!

Although the Tang Dynasty followed the tradition in etiquette, and even rigidly implemented according to the Zhou rites, such as the title of the army's 'division and brigade', it is actually derived from the Zhou rites, which is not an imitation of the modern Western army, but a title that China has had since ancient times!

But while abiding by the tradition, it is also deepening the reform, otherwise, how can the Tang Dynasty lead mankind to conquer the stars?
