Section 4 Losses and Gains

In the sixth year of the Apocalypse (the tenth year of the Later Jin Mandate of Heaven), at the end of June, the Liaodong General Military Mansion in Guangning City.

"It is reported that the original Jiannu Zhengbai Banner Banner Owner Huang Taiji, under the support of the rest of the banner owners Baylor, has succeeded to the throne in Shengjing more than ten days ago, called Tiancong Khan."

"It is reported that Huang Taiji ordered the name of the Jin State to be changed to Qing, and the name of the Nu people was changed to Manchuria."

"It is reported that Huang Taiji has rectified the soldiers and horses of Jiannu, not only reorganized the Manchurian Eight Banners, but also newly established the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners, and is vigorously rectifying the internal affairs."

Yuan Mingxuan stood in the hall and read aloud the information obtained by the Investigation Division, Liu Yunwei and the generals and governors listened without saying a word, and everyone's expressions were very serious. Everyone originally thought that once Nurhachi died, Jiannu would fall into a situation where the dragons were ownerless, and even a civil strife for power would break out, but the strong rise of Huang Taiji disappointed everyone's expectations.

After Yuan Mingxuan read all the information, Liu Yunwei sighed heavily and said, "I really didn't expect it!" This Huang Taiji is a more difficult guy than Nurhachi. Nurhachi focused all his attention on the conquest, at best he was a brave and warlike commander, while Huang Taiji was a monarch who focused on the development of national strength, had a mind and a right wrist, which is not good news for us! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone began to discuss, full of worries about the future situation in Liaodong, and the lobby suddenly became noisy.

After a while, Liu Yunwei waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, "The Investigation Division continues to pay attention to the movements of Huang Taiji and the Qing Kingdom, and will report as soon as there is news." ”

"My subordinates understand!"

"Okay, now let's talk about the battle in Liaodong this time, have the casualties of each department been counted?"

Liu Yunwei asked with a solemn expression, looked around at the generals present, and saw that everyone's expressions were not very good, so his heart sank, and he continued: "I'll go to the standard barracks first. ”

"In this battle, the soldiers of the pacesetter battalion lost a total of 2,488 people, four thousands, and more than 10 generals."

With Liu Yunwei at the beginning, everyone began to report the casualties of each department in turn.

"In this battle, a total of 3,297 soldiers of the Feiyu Battalion were martyred, including Cen Shaomin of the cavalry battalion, five thousand generals, more than 20 hundred generals, and general generals were martyred."

"In this battle, a total of 3,417 soldiers were martyred in the trapped camp, including two thousand generals, 22 hundred generals, and general generals."

"In this battle, a total of 2,835 soldiers were martyred in the Tiger Battalion, including one thousand generals, more than 13 hundred generals, and general generals."

"In this battle, a total of 4,176 soldiers of the Yue Cavalry Battalion were martyred, of which the B battalion garrisoned Jingbao Mountain, three thousand generals, twenty-four hundred generals, and the general martyrs."

"In this battle, a total of 2,117 soldiers were martyred in the Zhichong battalion, of which eight were martyred by the general and general commanders."

"In this battle, a total of 3,766 soldiers of the Yingyang Battalion were martyred, of which four were martyred."

"In this battle, a total of 2,108 soldiers of the Changshui Battalion were martyred, of which six were martyred."

"In this battle, a total of 2,993 soldiers were martyred in the Yulin Battalion, of which 11 were martyred by the general and the general."

After all the generals finished speaking, the hall became extremely silent, and the losses of the various units of the Han Wei army in Liaodong had exceeded everyone's expectations. After several battles, nearly 30,000 soldiers were killed in battle, and two garrison generals were martyred, such heavy casualties were the first time since the establishment of the Hanwei Army!

Liu Yunwei said in a deep voice: "In this battle, all departments of our army lost more than 27,000 soldiers, and there were two garrisons and dozens of thousands of generals who were martyred!" They are all heroes of the dynasty and heroes of China! The matter of the bereavement of the fallen and wounded soldiers must be completed as soon as possible! ”

Ma Shiming, who was on the side, got up and said: "Please rest assured, the city division has raised enough money and food, and is negotiating with the general soldiers of various towns about the pension, and will not snub the meritorious soldiers." ”

"Although the soldiers of the various departments have suffered a lot of losses, but you should not be down, our army has won the most Jiannu heads in this battle, with a total of more than 48,000 Jiannu heads, more than 20,000 Mongolian Tatar heads, and more than 40,000 traitor army heads! In this battle, our Hanwei army annihilated a total of 100,000 enemies, and the results were also rich! ”

Hearing this, everyone's morale rose sharply. Yes, 100,000 enemies were annihilated in World War I! Such a great martial arts, but also only in the early years of this dynasty will have, this time the Hanwei army soldiers went north to Liaodong, although the soldiers suffered a lot of losses, but the great feats made, it is also rare!

"In addition, in the name of the Jiliao Governor's Office, the soldiers of Tuntian in each town will be requisitioned, and enough troops will be drawn from them to supplement the various departments, and the army of each department will complete the strength within a month! The Planning Division is responsible for this matter. ”

Zhou Tianyi got up and said, "Please rest assured, the subordinates will do their best to complete this matter as soon as possible." ”

"The governor has previously written to the imperial court, requesting the rebuilding of Liaodong Town, and placing Liaodong Town under the jurisdiction of the Jiliao Governor's Office, and now the imperial court has replied and approved. Therefore, the deployment of troops in Jiliao towns should also be adjusted: the governor decided to appoint Wu Xing, a general of the trapping camp, as the chief military officer of Liaodong Town, and led the trapping camp and the Huben battalion to garrison Guangning City; Wen Polu, the chief officer of Jizhou Town, led the Changshui Battalion and the Zhechong Battalion to garrison Jizhou Town; Lu Ying, the chief officer of Tongzhou Town, led the Feiyu Battalion and Yulin Battalion to garrison Tongzhou Town; Li Tianhao, the general of the Yuecai battalion, and Gao Hongguang, the general of the Yingyang battalion, were stationed at Shanhaiguan with the governor. ”

Lu Ying, Wu Xing and other eight generals got up together to receive the order.

Then, Liu Yunwei said to Zhao Shujiao, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan: "General Zhao, Shanhaiguan is the throat of Liaodong, and it is necessary to ensure that the Hanwei army has a heavy defense when it goes out!" Therefore, the Governor has decided to let you train 10,000 defenders for a period of one year, and after a year, the Governor will see an elite army of 10,000 people, how about it? ”

Zhao Shujiao was overjoyed when he heard this, just imagine, which of the generals doesn't want to have more and more troops under his command? What's more, since Zhao Shujiao served as the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, he has always been the logistics captain of the Hanwei Army, and now Liu Yunwei wants to let his army guard Shanhaiguan, which is ready to let Zhao Shujiao defend one side independently!

"The last will be ordered! Please rest assured that the last general will do his best to build Shanhaiguan into an iron wall! ”

Liu Yunwei nodded with a smile, and praised Zu Dashou and Man Gui again, encouraging the two to continue to work hard. Zu Dashou and Man Gui were both smiling, and they all said that they would work hard to lead the troops and continue to defend the territory of Liaodong.

After finishing speaking, Liu Yunwei began to mention the people of Liaodong who were brought back after this battle. Everyone saw that Liu Yunwei had assigned a task to everyone, but they ignored Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Liaodong, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, you must know that in the Battle of Ningyuan, it was Yuan Chonghuan who shelled Nurhachi, which is a great feat! Could it be that the superintendent had some misunderstanding about Yuan Chonghuan, or something happened?

"As of today, there are 360,000 people in Liaodong who are stranded in the area of Quang Ninh, and the Governor's Office immediately inventories the land in various parts of Liaodong Town, and this governor wants you to complete the resettlement of these 360,000 people within two months, and then spend a month to build houses, distribute warm clothing, and farm tools and seeds for the next year. The Governor has only one requirement for you, and that is that before the winter falls, all the people must have shelter, clothing, and food, and not a single person will freeze to death this winter! ”

Yuan Mingxuan, Sun Yuanhua, Ma Shiming, Zhou Tianyi, Hu Kun, and Chen Zi all stood up with solemn faces, and assured Liu Yunwei that they would do their best to complete the task.

Liu Yunwei also nodded and said: "You don't have to worry about money and food, I have already sent someone to contact Zheng Zhilong, a guerrilla in Haiphong in Quanzhou Prefecture, Zheng Zhilong sent a reply yesterday, and the first batch of one million taels of silver and three hundred thousand stones have been shipped." ”

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed.

"Okay, let's talk about the things that everyone is most concerned about, and the reward from the imperial court has also come down. However, your official positions have basically not been promoted, except for Wu Xing's promotion to the chief military officer. ”

Zhao Kaishan said with some dissatisfaction: "Big brother, although we lost more than 20,000 soldiers in this battle, we also beheaded 100,000 ranks!" Why doesn't the imperial court reward us? ”

Zhao Kaishan shouted, and the rest of the generals present also shouted. Seeing this, Liu Yunwei was also helpless, so he could only let everyone vent for a while, and then said: "You guys be quiet first, it is reasonable that the court did not reward us this time." After all, now that our Hanwei Army has more than 200,000 troops, if you vigorously promote the generals, won't the strength of your troops expand even more in the future? If that's the case, how can you reassure the imperial court! ”

Lu Ying said indignantly: "Then the imperial court can't be rewarded for its merits!" Not only did we annihilate 100,000 Tartar captives, but we also killed Nurhachi! ”

"Therefore, the imperial court gave all eight of you knighthoods, and allocated a reward of three million taels of silver, and Wei Zhongxian also exempted all the military tuns of my Jiliao four towns from paying taxes for three years!"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned at first, and then fell into ecstasy. Eight leading generals were knighted by the imperial court at the same time, what does that mean? It means that a new military class is being formed! In the near future, perhaps the situation of the noble and the lowly will be broken by everyone in one fell swoop!

Seeing everyone's happy looks, Liu Yunwei secretly said in his heart: "This round has come to an end, and it will be up to Ben Du and Huang Taiji to see who heals the internal injuries first, and who deals with internal matters first, who will be able to take the lead in the next game!" However, the situation on the side of the court is not optimistic! ”
