Chapter 9 Linxi Consolidation
Li Qingyuan's soldiers also took out knives and guns to stand on the necks of these fifty soldiers according to his prior explanation, these soldiers and generals were dumbfounded, what kind of game is this? Do you resist or do you resist illegally?
Just this stunned kung fu, all the soldiers were restrained by the other party, Li Qingyuan was even happier, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, these people's IQ is obviously not online.
Li Qingyuan rolled his eyes, tied up these people, ordered the door to be closed, and then found a small soldier to go to the woods outside the city to inform, and after a while, the rebels in the woods left two hundred people to take over the city wall, and the others began to sneak to the other three city gates.
And here, Li Qingyuan tied up the people and began to rush from the city to the east gate, Li Qingyuan went to the east city slowly, and suddenly hundreds of people outside the city suddenly besieged the city gate, so scared that the remaining three gates were quickly closed.
So when Li Qingyuan arrived in Dongcheng, he immediately shouted: "Is there a bandit attacking the city?" I'm here to support you, brothers, hurry up to the city wall to defend, don't let the bandits enter the city, give me a hard beating! ”
As soon as the soldiers at the east gate saw that the helpers were coming, they immediately put down most of their minds, only they were always a little confused, why did the reinforcements come not long after they were sent? And who is coming to help?
When these officers and soldiers went up to the city wall, the gatekeeper always saw a man wearing a general's uniform, and hurriedly came over to salute, Li Qingyuan asked: "The enemy is there, show me quickly." ”
The general manager hurriedly took Li Qingyuan to the city wall to chop, but as soon as he turned around, he was stabbed to death by Li Qingyuan, and the others also acted immediately as if they had a signal, and all the fifty people guarding the door were killed in less than a quarter of an hour.
Li Qingyuan opened the city gate to let the rebels in, and after entering, he immediately closed the city gate and ordered that if anyone came to ask, he said that the city was arresting bandits and closed the city gate for three days.
A similar method was adopted, Li Qingyuan took the north gate and the west gate, and then the rebel army entered the city and the whole city was under martial law, and when Wu Sanniang came with a large army, he saw the city gate and city wall with no traces of battle.
After listening to the descriptions of his subordinates, he was even more impressed by Li Qingyuan's wisdom, and when the whole army entered the city, Li Qingyuan's first thing to do was not to rob and requisition grain, but to plan to reorganize the troops.
Otherwise, everything is chaotic, which is not conducive to command, and there is no efficiency in fighting, after discussing it with Wu Sanniang, Wu Sanniang immediately agreed.
Time was urgent, Li Qingyuan didn't have time to think about it in detail, so he simply used the simplest method to divide the righteous army into two parts, one was the soldiers, and the other was the logistics personnel.
The combat unit is divided into a squad of 12 people, with two five-person combat squads, and a squad leader and a cook, and the leader of the combat squad serves as the first deputy squad leader and the second deputy squad leader respectively.
The four squads are a platoon, plus the platoon commander and the signal corpsmen are exactly 50 people, and the four platoons are a company, and the company has a baggage squad, and the communication squad and company headquarters are about 220 people.
The four companies are a battalion, plus the battalion-level baggage platoon, communications platoon, and security platoon, totaling about 1,000 people. As for the larger establishment, it seems that it is not needed for the time being.
Li Qingyuan was busy with the reorganization of the whole day, running and fighting all day long, Li Qingyuan simply felt that his whole person was tired and scattered.
However, adaptation is nine deaths and one life, and if it is not adapted, it is ten deaths and no life, and in order to survive, Li Qingyuan has to learn advanced experience.
In the end, more than 4,800 people escaped, and after excluding more than 1,500 people who were unfit for combat, Li Qingyuan organized the remaining 3,300 into 12 battalions......
Originally, Li Qingyuan only wanted to organize three battalions, but when he thought that he would fight local tyrants to recruit new recruits next, he would build more shelves first, so as to save trouble when unpacking the seal in the future.
In order not to affect his combat effectiveness, Li Qingyuan deliberately set up two full-fledged battalions and ten rack battalions, and the selection of these battalion commanders gave priority to the more than ten temporarily appointed squad leaders who initially followed him.
In fact, there are other considerations in the first adaptation of the local tyrants, after all, the rebels are all peasants, and blindly letting them fight the local tyrants may become a robbery feast.
Only when the organization and rules are established will the next action not cause chaos. Anyway, the whole city is under martial law, and the Linqing defense line has not yet discovered the situation here.
A day later, Li Qingyuan finally put up the shelves of the troops, and as for the logistics department, it was divided into several groups according to technical categories, and there was no work for them to do now, so it could be regarded as supervising the logistics first.
After dividing the pairs, Li Qingyuan ordered everyone to strengthen the defense, and then sent people to inquire about the people in this Linxi City, who were the worst and the people hated the most.
And he himself found a room and went to sleep in a hurry, he was too tired for two days and a night, Wu Sanniang came to him in the middle of the night, saw that he was sleeping fragrantly, covered him with a quilt and went to sleep.
Li Qingyuan slept until more than eight o'clock the next day, turned over and wanted to continue sleeping, only to remember that he was still in the Qing Dynasty, and immediately woke up, slept a fart, and then fell asleep.
Li Qingyuan came out and everyone was waiting for him in the courtyard, and when he saw Wu Sanniang also wearing white clothes and standing at the door with double knives on his shoulder, Li Qingyuan asked: "Your injury is not healed yet, don't move, this time it's not to fight, just to kill a few big families, you just arrange the logistics." ”
Wu Sanniang said with a smile: "How can I be so fragile, now everything is almost fine, don't believe it, I will play a few ...... for you." ”
Li Qingyuan helplessly stopped: "Okay! Good! Good! You are powerful, but I let you take charge of the logistics and be responsible for packing up the supplies and silver, and I also want you to deter them, after all, I am afraid that I will not be able to suppress these people by then. ”
Wu Sanniang nodded at this time, indicating that she knew, and then Li Qingyuan asked the people who had inquired to report, and began to clean up these heinous crimes in order.
originally thought it was a very simple thing, but the first household encountered fierce resistance, and it is no wonder that this is the case, because the first target Li Qingyuan chose was the largest big family in the city, and the largest big family was often the most vicious.
There are no longer a few servants in this family, relying on the courtyard wall for defense, Li Qingyuan looked at these people shouting around just but didn't dare to rush up, and he was half dead of anger.
It's no wonder that the ancient siege battles were months or even more than a year, and these people couldn't rush in at once, so all that was left was screaming.
Li Qingyuan ordered people to prepare explosives packs, if you want to say that this kind of black powder explosives pack, it may not work to blow up the city wall, but blowing up this kind of courtyard wall is not a matter of all at once, these people are all brainless!
Li Qingyuan was instructing the logistics troops to stop the explosives package, and Wu Sanniang came over and said, "Qingyuan is a real person! My stepfather once tried, but a cart of gunpowder could not blow up the city walls even under the city, and the gunpowder was useless. ”
"What did your father use for gunpowder?" Li Qingyuan was surprised, how could it be useless?
