Chapter 601: Let You Go

After the Huazhou army advanced to the direction of the Daliao River, it stopped advancing and temporarily stationed there to rest, and now the Huazhou army at the forefront has about 35,000 people, and the remaining 10,000 soldiers and the 30,000 regiments from Beifu outside the Guanwai are maintained in various places as an occupation army.

In the eyes of the Ming army that had surrendered and those who had not surrendered, it was generally believed that Huazhou's military strength was insufficient and difficult to maintain, and that it could only stop advancing and digest the land that had been occupied, and then have the strength to continue the attack.

All the defense of the northern province outside the Guanwai has been taken over by the regimental training, and these regimental exercises are all so-called new regimental training, which has been organized for less than a year and a half, and there are still 4,000 regular troops and 2,000 escorts to guard against unexpected scenes, and the remaining "old" regimental training has already entered Liaozhen and is beginning to maintain it locally, and there are still 20,000 regimental exercises in progress.

At present, the busiest are the regimental training envoys at all levels, who now not only have to manage the regimental training of their subordinates as grassroots officers, but also take on the task of training those reorganized surrendered Ming troops.

After the regular army advanced to the Great Liao River, it was equivalent to holding the throat of Liao Town, and those Ming troops who had not yet fought were already blocked in Liao Town, Gaizhou Wei, Fuzhou Wei, Jinzhou Wei, and Dingliao Right Guard, all of which were in the time of the requisition of the army, because they were guarding key areas, or they were too far away from Liaoyang and Shenyang, and they were not included in the requisition.

Although Jinzhouwei, Gaizhouwei, and Fuzhou are all very close to Bohai Bay, the most powerful Huazhou army is the navy, and when the Liaozhen War has not yet happened, all kinds of ships in the port have been smashed by Huazhou's gunboats and completely blocked inside.

These guards only have the right guard of Dingliao, because the leader of the guard is the descendant of Li Gufeng, the general of Liao Town, so he did not mention any conditions, and simply surrendered.

The other three guards were arranged by the governor of Jiliao to garrison people from other factions according to the tradition of the size of the Ming army, and the possibility of persuasion to surrender was not great.

Huazhou's regimental training volume is equivalent to seventy percent of the regular army, and the equipment is not as good as the regular army, but such training volume and training methods, including those equipment, are already a first-class strong army in the Ming army, and no one will know this kind of insider information.

All the occupation troops have such a problem, that is, with the elongation of the battle line, the territory occupied is getting larger and larger, it is necessary to divide the forces to maintain order, otherwise there will be a fire in the backyard, so the later it is, the more insufficient the troops, although the Huazhou army is also Han, it is easier to control and control the territory, that is to say, it can quickly control the population resources, and quickly replenish the army.

But after all, this is taking time, the current situation, Huazhou can only be in the area of the Da Liao River, can not continue to move forward, after all, you can't advance here, Daming will not be there waiting for you to enrich the military resources, you Huazhou occupies Liaozhen outside the Guan, at most the scale of a province, but the Ming Dynasty north and south of the thirteen provinces plus the north and south of the Zhili, this is more than ten to one, or even dozens to one of the power gap.

This time the Huazhou army achieved such a result, many people thought that it was a surprise, the Ming army was caught off guard to have such a rout, if the imperial court was given time to react, and the country's financial and military resources were concentrated, then the Huazhou army could not stand firm It is not known, so those who surrendered before had other ideas at this time.

Including Li Gufeng, the chief soldier of Liaozhen, he vaguely regretted it in his heart, but at this time, he was already without soldiers and no generals, just a rich man in Shenyang, and there was no one who was willing to go out of the city to report the news, so he was just secretly anxious there.

The regimental training sent out to fight this time did not pay attention to the speed of the soldiers, but they leaned over steadily, leaving enough time for the other party, but what was surprising was that these regimental exercises and the dignified battles on the battlefield of those guards were all defeated by the Ming army.

Speaking of which, what is surprising is that those who don't know the details of Huazhou, if they learn about Huazhou's regimental training system, they will find that if such an army does not win against the Ming army, it can only be said that the person in command is incompetent.

Liaozhen has been peaceful for too long, in the years before the war, each guard station, more than 300 days a year, training for ten days can already be called rigorous and diligent, the most important responsibility of the soldiers in this era is to farm, pay rent, since not fighting, making money is the right thing.

Although the regimental training in Huazhou is in the name of the militia regiment, in fact the militia is full-time, and military skills are trained every day under the leadership of the regimental training envoys who are veterans, one is practiced for less than 10 days a year, and the other is trained all year round, and the degree of well-equipped equipment is not on the same level.

Everyone has no experience in war, if Huazhou's regimental training is to lose, it is a fantasy, three guards, 20,000 regimental training, the battle ended after the first snow fell in Liaozhen, these regimental training with combat experience was organized into ten infantry regiments.

Those who have been calculating the combat strength of the Huazhou army can be dispatched have calculated a number for Huazhou at this time, and now there are a total of 50,000 regular troops, and only these soldiers can be dispatched, but the Jizhen Jing camp in Guangning and Guannei, including the soldiers and horses nearby, it is not a problem to mobilize 200,000, which is really too disparity.

The people at both ends of these heads were worried again, as if to confirm their worries, even if the Huazhou Army had trained those regiments as regular troops, it still held the Da Liao River and did not advance a point.

In November of the 22nd year of Jiajing, Huazhou issued a message in the whole territory of Liaozhen that he occupied, this news has no precedent, and it seems inexplicable in the eyes of everyone, the content of this notice is that Huazhou is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and does not force the people of China to choose a camp.

If you are willing to return to Daming, the Huazhou army will never stop it, of course the land and the house will not be taken away, and the rest of the property Huazhou will definitely not deduct a star and a half, and send it out of the country, this news can really be called inexplicable, but in addition to being inexplicable, no one will stop it, and it will be troublesome to stay in Liaozhen and continue to fan the flames and make trouble.

Those who have always had no confidence in Huazhou, and those who are also extremely worried, especially those who have some industries and have a status in Liao Town, think that they can understand the situation, and after getting the news, they saw that someone crossed the Da Liao River safe and sound, and they took action one after another.

There are also some more pedantic scholars, who are not even in the countryside if they go by themselves, inciting others to go with them, saying that they are loyal to the Ming Dynasty, so why bother to serve and rebel. If this kind of remarks are changed to a different environment, for example, Daming, Jinyiwei and the people of Dongchang can simply and neatly give you a decision.

However, the regimental training to maintain law and order in Huazhou was only there to watch from the sidelines, and those who wanted to surrender and reorganize the troops were also prevented.

Of course, the effect of incitement, as well as the people who followed back to the Ming Dynasty are few and pitiful, in the process of dividing the land and setting taxes, all the military households and civilian households have made a bargain, first the field is less than two percent, and then the public land is distributed to everyone's hands, when Huazhou and Liaozhen fought, it is the time of harvest, Huazhou defeated the determination policy, and the harvest of these public fields was really distributed to everyone's hands.

Compared with previous years, this year's grain has almost doubled, think about the harvest in the coming year, who is willing to follow, farmers and military households are thinking clearly, who really gives people benefits will follow whom, anyway, we Han people sit in the country, what do you say that the Huazhou army can't live long, what is the matter with the soldiers in Liao Town who are plain and proud.

It's a little ridiculous to say that the most wanted to leave in the entire Liao Town was nothing more than three people, Xu Yan, the governor of Jiliao, the eunuch of the supervising army, and Li Gufeng, the chief soldier of Liao Town, but Li Gufeng didn't dare to go back at all, such a big failure responsibility, and he surrendered to the other party, even if he went back, he was beheaded, although he didn't have any confidence in the situation in Huazhou now, but he also stayed in the mansion honestly.

As for Xu Yan and the eunuch, they were under house arrest at this time, and they didn't know what was going on outside, they were prisoners, not free people, and they didn't have the right to return home.

After these people crossed the Da Liao River, they went all the way to Guangning along the official road, and some people were directly preparing to enter the customs to join their relatives, along the way, there would naturally be many people who asked them what was going on in that mysterious Huazhou, although they were full of slander and rumors, but there was also a lot of information passed through them, and many people outside began to have some preliminary understanding of Huazhou.

No matter how these people spread rumors, one thing can never be changed, that is, the 100,000 soldiers of Liaozhen were beaten by the other party in such a short period of time, how strong is the Huazhou army, Guangning's soldiers and horses originally wanted to make some tests on the Huazhou army in the Great Liao River, but since those people passed by, they immediately shrunk.

At the beginning of December, the Ming army of Zhenjiang Bao and Jiucheng on the edge of the Yalu River surrendered, with the Great Liao River as the dividing line, and the land in the east was already owned by Liao Town.

However, no one thought that outside the Guanwai controlled by Huazhou, Liaozhen, and North Korea were already connected......
