No. 127 Disappointed
PS: Thank you for your support and trust, the swordsman is so ashamed, the historical background of the swordsman seems to be not enough to control the subject of the emperor stream, it took more than three hours to write a thousand words, the brain is blank, it is just a waste to the scum, and suddenly there is a feeling that Jiang Lang is exhausted.
This speed is really not suitable for online serialization.,The swordsman doesn't plan to rush the manuscript for the time being (and there won't be any more online serialization if the book is not finished in the future),Calm down first.,Learn the writing techniques of other gods.,Look at more Ming history materials to increase the background.,Book friends, don't chase it for the time being.,Put it in the bookshelf to fatten.。 When the swordsman is finished, I will inform you. Sorry, ashamed! The swordsman has lost his character, has no discipline, hides his face and cries!
……………………
It is estimated that there will be more than 36,000 soldiers in Zhejiang, more than 34,000 soldiers in Fujian (including 10,000 Zheng Zhilong's soldiers and horses, and the imperial court will calculate the meaning of 10,000 soldiers for him), and the four provinces of Liangguang and Yunnan, excluding the Tuntian soldiers, the total number of soldiers is about 80,000. The governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, the governor of Liangguang, the governor of Guangxi and Yunnan, and the governor of the four provinces were each one, and the main force was deployed at the junction of Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan provinces, mainly to guard against Zhang Xianzhong's troops in Sichuan and to deter the local Tusi and Yao people.
Now most of Sichuan has been occupied by Zhang Xianzhong's Great Western Army, the imperial court whip is out of reach, almost out of control of Sichuan, temporarily unable to restructure, the main force of Huguang is still the remnants of Zuo Liangyu, plus Zhang Tianlu, Zhang Tianfu, Huang Binqing and other towns, the total number of soldiers is about 45,000 people, the south Zhili Jiangxi generation is handed over to the Beijing camp defense after rectification, the south Zhili Jinggi area is defended by more than 40,000 imperial battalion water and land army, and Jiangbei is defended by 70,000 soldiers of the rest of the four towns.
According to the draft plan, the total strength of the Nanming soldiers is expected to be about 300,000, of which Nanzhili and Huguang, which are located in the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, account for nearly 200,000, and the auxiliary troops who are equipped with food and pay are controlled within 100,000, which is three-fifths less than the more than 1 million troops registered in the original military department!
It seems that the strength of the army has been seriously reduced, but in fact it is just turning the false into reality, turning a series of false figures in the account books of the Ministry of War into real troops!
The total strength of Li Zicheng's Shun army, who had fled to the old nest of Shaanxi at this moment, was only more than 200,000, and the main force of the Manchurian, Mongolian and Han Eight Banners that entered the pass with the Tartars was only 1230,000, even if they added Wu Sangui, Tang Tong, Jiang Yang and the local town soldiers who surrendered, the total strength was not more than 300,000.
Generally speaking, this military reform has greatly infringed on the interests of the town generals and officers of the guards in Beijing, Fujian, Zhejiang, Liangguang, Yunnan, and Guizhou, and will certainly encounter considerable resistance in the course of rectification and reform.
The new system deprived them of various vested interests such as embezzling military salaries, occupying military fields, enslaving soldiers, etc., and the removal of military power was secondary, after all, they still knew very well how much combat power the battalion leaders under their command had, although they did not dare to rebel against it and face the court openly, and there would definitely be no less small actions behind the scenes. What the final effect of the restructuring will be, when the time comes, it will depend on the means of the provincial ministers.
If it is handled well, it can save at least four or five million taels of military salaries and more than one million stone of military rations for the imperial court. Grain is good to say, Huguang and Jiangxi are all major grain-producing provinces, and the imperial court is not short of grain, but military spending is a little unbearable. Nanjing's household income is only more than 7 million taels.
In the original history, because of the huge military expenditure, resulting in a financial deficit and deficit of millions of taels, Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and others had to alleviate the financial crisis by selling their official positions to quench their thirst.
