Chapter 523: Alien Warrior
Huang Sheng saw that Hu Jianfeng was about to move, and encouraged him: "Hu Jianfeng, if there are different opinions, let's discuss them." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Hu Jianfeng immediately stood up and said, "My lord, I dare not agree with the theory of Cao Hucheng's brothers. If the Heavy Infantry has a fully loaded flintlock bayonet in their hand, it will not be any different from holding the 'Armor-Piercing Spear' in hand-to-hand combat.
However, our army can theoretically shoot at close range face to face, and some soldiers can even keep the bullets in the barrel to deal with the most ferocious enemy troops, so it is imperative to completely replace the cold-armed troops. ”
Cao Hucheng was anxious, and said loudly: "My lord, I don't think it's bad for all the cold-weapon infantry to switch to hot weapons, but considering that many veterans just can't skillfully control flintlock guns, I ask my lord to give them the opportunity to stay in the army and serve." ”
Huang Sheng said with a smile: "You don't need to explain, this officer will not do a one-size-fits-all approach, and is ready to phase out the cold weapon troops within three years, and those soldiers who have never been able to skillfully control flintlock pistols should be honorably discharged from the army after serving for another year or two!"
Moreover, this official only decided that the Huang family's training of new soldiers is focused on training firearms, and the cold weapon troops still need it, but we don't need to conduct basic training, and it is completely possible to select the Ming soldiers who serve the Huang family, and they can also choose wolf soldiers and Li people, and their cold weapon skills are still good. ”
Everyone discussed the departure and stay of the cold weapon troops, talked about the ferocity of those wolf soldiers and Li people's village bravery, and then studied the deployment of the Jiaozhi border.
There must be heavy garrisons in the mountainous areas bordering Laos, and there must also be a large number of garrisons on the borders of Guangxi and Guangdong in the Ming Dynasty.
The garrison on the border of the Ming Dynasty is not to guard against the invasion of the Ming Dynasty, but to prepare for the gradual encroachment to the north, and also to guard against the Yi rebels going south.
Huang Sheng also set up nine towns, but this town was not a town commander, but a purely militarized small fortress of garrisons.
However, there will be a thousand soldiers of the Huang family stationed here, and there are three generals under the jurisdiction of cavalry, infantry, and muskets, as well as a hundred field artillery, with no less than twelve artillery pieces, and a grenadier flag.
The warriors stationed here are not just patrolling their own defensive positions and shrinking back to defend themselves. Instead, they actively prepared for war, made a sand table of mountains and rivers in front of the border, and expanded their territory when the time was ripe.
The garrison headquarters must mobilize the army and the people to build fortresses, train village warriors, reconnoiter the terrain, and build safe silos to store grain, so that the military towns they are stationed in will become bridgeheads and base camps for launching attacks.
Huang Sheng led the troops like this, always taking the initiative to attack, not afraid of the small scale of the war, afraid that the soldiers would not be trained in actual combat for a long time.
It has been a year since the overall victory of the Great Viet Kingdom, and many places have been in operation for a year and a half.
Due to the enthusiasm for building homes, too many two-story blue brick houses are lined up one after another.
The biggest difference is that the main structure of these buildings is made of stone and bricks, with a certain proportion of reinforced concrete, and it is particularly large, which can accommodate 100 households and allow 1,000 people to live without feeling crowded.
Because of the continuous immigration, there are more than 300,000 Han people from Shanxi Province and tens of thousands of people from the Shandong Peninsula recently.
As long as the hard-working and simple Han people get land, even if they start from scratch, they will soon get food and clothing and become well-off, and with the investment of the Huang family, ordinary people who want to do business and run workshops will also get low-interest loan support.
Nowadays, even fights and brawls are rare in Cochin, everyone is busy, everyone is busy with life, busy training, and there is no spare time.
The Liangguang Ming Army, the Wolf Soldiers and the White Pole Soldiers have been fighting with the Huang family for almost two years, and they should also let their squad return to their hometowns and return to their hometowns.
Huang Sheng summoned the former Ming military attachés and asked them to bring the troops home, and the documents prepared for the merit were ready-made and sent directly to these military attachés.
They will receive 30,000 beheadings, and of course, the casualties of the soldiers under their command are quite few, and the number reaches half, this is because most of the soldiers ask immigrants to settle down in Jiaozhi, and take the initiative to become soldiers stationed in Jiaozhi.
Huang Sheng selected half of the people to transfer their families to work and live, and of course they would be reported dead.
These military attachés were dumbfounded when they saw that they not only let them go back, but also gave so many military exploits, and the casualties in the report were also able to let them privately share a lot of the court's buried silver and pensions.
There are many military attachés who are reluctant to return to their original army and ask to take over their families to serve in the army.
Huang Sheng politely rejected their surrender, because it was not easy to settle, these military attaches were not satisfied with the treatment of regular soldiers, they had grades, and the chief flag officers of the Huang family were all selected leaders, how could these old officers become their bosses?
Seeing that the Huang family had no intention of leaving them to serve, they only said that if there was anything difficult for everyone to get along with, the Huang family would definitely help.
These military attachés gave up when they had no illusions, and successively took their men and horses to Guangzhou from the Huangjiahai ship to go home, they were victorious divisions, and there was no doubt that they were promoted to the rank of knight.
Half of their soldiers happily stayed in Cochin to become garrisons, some of them had already arrived, and some were on their way to migration.
The far-sighted Huang Sheng knew that the 2,500 wolf soldiers who had survived many bloody battles had fought with the Huang family's private soldiers for nearly two years, and had been completely assimilated, and everyone could understand the Huang family's official dialect, and some could even write two or three hundred Chinese characters silently.
Huang Sheng refused to leave them all, but selected forty percent, and let the rest go home.
When these wolf soldiers return to their cottages, they will tell the villagers what they have seen and heard in the past two years, and see that the relatives who have returned from the war with Lord Huang have grown strong and earned a lot of money, and their mouths are full of new words that they don't understand, and the propaganda effect will cause a sensation in their cottages.
Huang Sheng has not yet planned to seek Guangxi, it is estimated that many ordinary people in Guangxi will return to their hearts, and they will hope that Lord Huang can govern Guangxi as soon as possible.
Moreover, these wolf soldiers who went back may still pull their fellow villagers in groups of three or five to take the initiative to cross the border and take refuge in Jiaozhi, hoping to get acres of land and settle down.
Of course, Huang Sheng will accept a steady stream of people who take the initiative to take refuge, and Jiaozhi will also trade and communicate with Guangxi.
This is another conspiracy, who has the ability to crack such a scheme?
The use of high-pressure policies to coerce may be counterproductive, these wolf soldiers who went back have broadened their horizons, and it is no longer possible to be submissive, their force value is also terrifying, if they are inspired to rebel fiercely, I am afraid that the Guangxi Weisuo army will not be able to bear it.
The model beauty is also going home, she has already fallen in love with Jiaozhi, and the same is true of the Qin family brothers, Huang Sheng did not calculate the white pole soldiers, and did not let the Huang family's private soldiers bewitch the white pole soldiers to stay.
The Qin brothers and Ma Xiangling saw that all the Ming troops had left many horses and horses to hand over to Lord Huang, and reported these horses to the imperial court as casualties.
They were participants in the conspiracy, knowing that such a vast land needed too many soldiers and civilians to defend it, and Lord Huang should especially need the population and soldiers.
