Seeing the team in white coming, Fan Jingwen and the others were shocked.

Su Tiancheng's report, he also saw it, and felt that this was a huge victory, the two thousand soldiers led by Su Tiancheng suffered less than 500 casualties, but they wiped out 6,000 rogues, killed more than 2,000 people, captured more than 1,000 people, and escaped less than 2,000 people, and the leader of the rogue robbers committed suicide by himself, such a brilliant victory is by no means something that ordinary armies can do.

With such a huge victory, all the teams were dressed in white.

Fan Jingwen somewhat understood, why did the Jiangning battalion have such extraordinary combat effectiveness, maybe their attitude of respect for ordinary sergeants can explain a lot of problems.

Seeing Fan Jingwen and the others, Su Tiancheng hurriedly dismounted and stepped forward.

"Su Tiancheng, the magistrate of Jiangning County, meet your lord."

"Excuse me, Master Su, the emperor is very happy to have eliminated the old Liukou Hui Ministry, the holy decree has arrived, you will follow me to the military department to receive the order, by the way, please come to the military department to receive the order."

"The subordinate obeys."

Outside the imperial city, the banquet has been set up.

Su Tiancheng and Zhu Xianxin entered the lobby of the military department and knelt to receive the holy decree.

According to the rules, Zhu Xianxin is the county lord, the identity is not ordinary, the emperor is a relative, it is difficult to have the opportunity to be named the lady of the order, and now, she is both the county lord and the lady of the order, and her identity is becoming more and more noble.

After the decree was announced, Fan Jingwen talked with Su Tiancheng for a long time, and no one participated in this conversation, and no one knew what they talked about.

Qin Sande, the eunuch guarding the town, was very happy, after arriving in Nanjing. He gave Su Tiancheng the greatest support, and the emperor was very appreciative, and he had already issued a secret decree to praise him several times, and if it continues to develop according to this trend, the next step. It is not difficult to return to the celebrant and serve as the eunuch of the palm seal.

Zhang Taining was completely shocked, if last time, Su Tiancheng led the sergeants of the Jiangning battalion, including the sergeants of the Xiaocai battalion and An Qingwei, to defeat more than 10,000 rogue soldiers led by Zijin Liang, and there was still the suddenness of the sneak attack, but this time. It was a completely head-to-head duel, with 2,000 soldiers and 6,000 rogues, without the slightest opportunism, it was completely a bloody battle. This shows how frightened the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion is. He was born in a family of military generals and knew the combat effectiveness of the army. I saw the battle report and saw that the losses of the cavalry battalion were so heavy. also understood, the team that greeted the relatives for Lu was all dressed in white.

In Zhang Taining's impression, the one who can have such a brave combat effectiveness is none other than Houjin's Manchu Eight Banners, fighting in the wild. The Ming army met the Eight Banners, no chance of winning, the Eight Banners were not good at attacking the city, if it weren't for this reason, I don't know how the battle was going on in the north of the Road.

He couldn't help but secretly guess. If the Jiangning camp meets the Eight Banners, what will be the result.

In the Jiangning camp barracks, the remains of the fallen soldiers were all transported back and buried in a unified manner, and the families of the soldiers were also invited to the barracks to give them the last ride.

The families of the fallen soldiers received a pension of one hundred taels of silver, and they rented the official land they planted, and were exempt from all taxes for three years, and all the harvest on the land was their own.

The soldiers who died in the Jin Wangfu were also buried, and from this day on, they had a new identity, and they were also soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion.

The clerk of the Jiangning battalion recorded the list of all the fallen soldiers, including personal information, which was requested by Su Tiancheng, and these records should be carefully kept for all the sergeants to pay respects to.

This is an unprecedented incentive, the incentive to leave a name in history, just imagine, which dynasty and which generation of ordinary sergeants, after the death, will leave their names, a general will be successful and ten thousand bones will wither, I don't know how many unknown sergeants in the road have achieved the reputation of the general, but in the Jiangning camp, the situation is different, ordinary sergeants, after the death, also have to leave their names.

participated in the funeral, the guards of the Jin Palace, and were going back.

Su Tiancheng took out 1,500 taels of gold and handed it to the guards who went back, in which, in addition to the pension of the dead guards, the remaining silver taels, each of the guards could get one tael of gold.

The cavalry battalion, which was already full, was understaffed after this fierce battle.

The recruitment of Liu Shiliang, Luo Chang, Ma Huabiao, Liu Tiehan and others is basically over.

Because of Su Tiancheng's wedding, this matter was naturally delayed, recruiting sergeants must require Su Tiancheng's nod, the more soldiers, the greater the expenses, don't underestimate the expenses of the Jiangning battalion, it is an astronomical amount, even if it is the two major battalions in Nanjing, there is no such a big expense, if Su Tiancheng didn't think of a way, it would definitely not be able to maintain.

After nearly two months of assessment and recruitment, 3,000 recruits entered the barracks, plus the 500 guards of the Jin Palace, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion have reached about 9,000 people.

Although the number of people has increased, the combat effectiveness still needs to be greatly improved.

Especially the sergeants selected this time, Su Tiancheng is not very satisfied, these people, they used to be rogues, and they fought well, they obeyed military orders, and the sergeants led by Zijinliang were among the rogue teams, and their combat effectiveness was relatively strong, but their shortcomings were also very obvious, and even a little fatal.

Most of these sergeants were mutinous sergeants in the Ming Dynasty in the past, because of the problem of arrears of salaries, the problem of deduction and exploitation of superior officers, etc., they rebelled and became the main force of the rogues, but in the process of continuous conquest, there were indeed big problems in their discipline, and it was normal for them to loot and kill people at will.

After the defeat of Yingshan, these sergeants have undergone great changes in their psychology, probably because they have suffered too much torture, and they seem to be a little cringe, and they can't see blood or fighting spirit on their bodies.

These are things that Su Tiancheng can't tolerate.

In his heart, the Jiangning battalion must be a well-disciplined army, and it is very necessary for the army and the people to live in and out of the water, and this is the source of the army's strength, and only with the support of the common people can the army be able to maintain itself for a long time.

The conquest is only one aspect, just if it is won, even if it is invincible in the world, it will not work.

Only through brutal training can we train out our physique, know how to be grateful, and understand what we are fighting for, so that it is possible to train sergeants who are not afraid of death and to train an army that can look down on the world.

The temporary establishment of the Jiangning battalion is 11,000 people, the Xiaocai battalion, the forward battalion, the Jianrui battalion, the infantry battalion and the Shenji battalion are all 2,000 people, and the scout battalion is 1,000 people.

Su Tiancheng didn't have so much time to delay.

Sun Chuanting, Sun Yuankun, Liu Shiliang, Luo Chang, Ma Huabiao, Liu Tiehan and others, looking at Su Tiancheng, they already knew the way, and Su Tiancheng was not very satisfied with the sergeants recruited this time.

In this, Sun Chuanting seems to be more casual, his identity is a little special, as a consultant, he mainly puts forward some opinions and suggestions, and will not interfere in the specific affairs of Jiangning Camp for the time being, and the rest of the people are different, the rise and fall of Jiangning Camp has a great relationship with them.

"You all know the way, I am not very satisfied with the sergeants recruited this time, although these people still have combat effectiveness, and they may be able to gallop on the battlefield after a period of training, but is this enough, no, so some of the things I said today, I hope you can keep in mind that this is the main purpose of the Jiangning battalion."

"The military regulations of the Jiangning battalion can not be described as strict, it cannot be said that they are not meticulous, on the surface, it looks very good, but what is the real cohesion, it is not these rigid military regulations, but beliefs."

"Belief is a bit ethereal, everyone is difficult to understand for a while, let me give you the simplest example, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, what to fight for, what to kill the enemy desperately, in the victory of Michi, for what has such a heroic performance, except for the honor of the soldiers, the honor of the Jiangning battalion, is there nothing else."

"The situation is definitely not like this, let's just say that the treatment of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, looking at the army of my Ming Dynasty, who can meet such a standard, the care and care of the soldiers' families must be meticulous, this is the simplest truth, faith needs to be supported by material, and it needs to be supported by care."

"This is my personal understanding, and it is also what the Jiangning Battalion must do, no matter how difficult it is, the treatment of the soldiers must be put in place, no matter how poor they are, they can't be poor, and the families of the soldiers must be proud of them."

"We've done all of this, and we've done a lot of things."

"Today I will say the most important thing, from now on, all the officers and men of the Jiangning battalion must establish a viewpoint that the common people are our food and clothing, and we must not harm the interests of the common people, and if the officers and men of the Jiangning battalion do evil and bully others, they must be engaged in military law, no matter who is involved."

"To give a simple example, our Jiangning battalion was ordered to fight, and everywhere we went, we were not allowed to arbitrarily requisition the people's money and food, we were not allowed to enter the people's houses at will, and we were not allowed to fight and insult women............

Sun Chuanting's eyes widened, this is the first time he has heard such a point of view, when the imperial army fights, it is all required to contribute to the people, and everyone also thinks that the war is originally for the people, and it is a matter of course to ask the people to contribute, and I can't imagine that the Jiangning camp has such a request.

This is a completely new concept, not to mention Sun Chuanting, even Sun Yuankun and others feel a little incomprehensible, but Su Tiancheng said that they must do it. (To be continued.) )
