Chapter 108: Sorting out the situation
A full 1,200 military household prisoners, almost all of them surrendered to the army, Li Jing directly selected 500 of them to reorganize the personal guard battalion, and the rest each supplemented the vacancy of each battalion in the field battalion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At first, these military households still resisted a little, after all, they all wanted to replenish their own property from their looted property, but when they heard Li Jing swear about the good days ahead, and openly and secretly restrained them with military regulations, Zhang Erma saw the benefits, and took the lead in handing over the money he had obtained from the looting in Shenchi County.
The remaining military households had to be reluctantly handed over one by one, so that Li Jing could forget it but had a matter in his own heart, those residents who had been guarding outside the urn city all night, at this moment seeing that the things that had been robbed of their homes were returned one by one, they felt a sense of belonging to this group of thieves in their hearts, after all, the officials and soldiers did not regard them as individuals, so naturally they were only thieves.
Li Jing struck while the iron was hot, and announced several rules such as fair trading, no forced buying and selling, and no arbitrarily breaking the door of a family, which made these residents more convinced, you must know that the Chinese people have asked for very little since ancient times, they only want a stable life, anyway, it is the right thing to pay taxes and live a dull life with their mother-in-law.
As for who the king flag is on their heads, they don't care, anyway, if they have something to eat, they won't die of hunger.
In this way, when Li Jing sent down all the salaries of the regular army field camp one by one, he immediately made almost all the soldiers happy, which was a real amount of money, and heard that the dead and wounded soldiers had been properly settled, so that they had no worries, and everyone was boiling at once, and even a few bold people shouted Long live, so that Li Jing saw it in his heart, and called the army's heart available.
As soon as the third watch day passed, the three headquarters of the Tuntian battalion, which had been temporarily replenished, all went straight to Wuzhai under the leadership of Li Fugui, and then, the troops of the second, third, and fourth battalions also set off one after another.
And today, he is already the governor of thousands of soldiers and horses, although it is his own seal, but sooner or later, he will teach the world to convince all the people, he will capture Beijing one day, ascend to the great treasure, it is not impossible, this great rivers and mountains, how can it fall into the hands of foreign people, this magnificent era of exploration, how can it be without the roar of the oriental dragon......
The army all set off, Shenchi County ushered in a new day, the sun rose in the east, the sun shone on the earth, people came out to work as in the past, although the shops were beaten yesterday, but fortunately, Li Jing returned the goods, they were able to continue to open, all this, there is almost no difference from the past, except for the soldiers patrolling the streets and alleys.
Although the main force is gone, the Shenchi garrison camp has also been established, and there are three full of 600 soldiers, and the garrison battalion is different from the regular field battalion, and its commander is lowered by Li Jing by one level, and all of them are called the acting staff generals, and the Shenchi is the first garrison battalion, and the first staff general is from the personal barracks under Li Jing.
In order to prevent the garrison battalion from getting out of control, Li Jing directly used Li Guitian, who was born in the Li family, who was the grandson of Li Chujiu, the old patriarch of the Li family, since Li Chujiu's death, he has been following Li Jing's side, and now Li Jing has no one available, so he can only let these relatives occupy the position first to avoid the loss of military power, and selected two from the relatives to serve as the captains of the first and second capitals of the Shenchi garrison battalion.
In this way, the entire Shenchi Camp was in the hands of Li Jing, and even if their ability was poor, they were finally able to obey orders.
"Returning to the field, Shenchi is where my Li clan is located, remember not to be careless, I specially selected three elites from the guards to the Japanese army for you to practice, you must be cautious, firmly hold the military power and not let go, and go to the back of the officers and troops to suppress, and you must not send your troops to the battlefield to go through." After arranging military affairs, Li Jing left Li Guitian alone to teach carefully.
Seeing that although he is in his twenties, but the hardships of farming in the past, where is the experience from his own more than ten years of military career, seeing that he is sincerely afraid to accept, his face is full of excitement and hesitation, but he sighed a few times in his heart, right now, there are too few people who can use his own family.
Finally, he shook his head with a distressed face, and told him to step back and think alone.
At present, seize the God-given opportunity of the annihilation of the official army on the west road, capture the land of Baode, Qilan, and Daisanzhou, take the neighboring states and counties as the foundation of their existence, and temporarily expand tens of thousands of soldiers and horses is not a problem.
Thinking back to the end of the Ming Dynasty, the elite Qin soldiers, the white pole soldiers, the Liaodong iron cavalry and the Guanning soldiers, not to mention the more ferocious Tartar soldiers, if they didn't have an elite soldiers and horses in hand, how to develop and how to divide the territory? Not to mention forcing the imperial court to recruit peace, I'm afraid I won't even be able to survive.
The establishment of elite troops is nothing more than the establishment of powerful cavalry, and the second is to equip the troops with armor on a large scale, these two, one is the cavalry, not to mention where to get horses, even the training time is not enough for their own family, the elite cavalry is not trained in four or five years.
Not to mention armor, in such a place where there is a shortage of iron and silver, don't even think about equipping armor on a large scale, just say that enough pig iron Li Jing can't get it, let alone the craftsman who makes the armor can't find it.
These two roads are temporarily blocked, Li Jing had to find another way, while pondering how to improve the firearms, on the other hand asked people to find raw materials, ready to start manufacturing their own life made of earth explosives, even if it is worse, it is stronger than the gunpowder of the people in the late Ming Dynasty, which is convenient for transportation and powerful, and it is suitable for warfare.
However, this matter is not in a hurry, and after a few months of work, it is impossible to gather the raw materials needed for the army to fight, and when this matter is finally determined, the sky is about to dawn, Li Jing held on to his spirit, walked to the gate of the county office, looked at the east, and thought silently in his heart, and he didn't know what the situation of Zhao Mosheng's department was now.
Wutai, Fanzhi leaned on Datong Town, and I don't know if I can hold on now, and then I thought about it, my own family has encountered the main force of the official army in Shenchi, then Zhao Mosheng, Tie Ding has also encountered the official army, if he can't hold on, his own house is in Yuanping, and the base camp of Chunxian County will be driven straight into by the official army commander.
If the official army heard that they had captured Shenchi, and continued to advance westward at that time, there would be no soldiers and horses in their hands to resist it, so when they thought about it, they became more and more anxious, and directly called a soldier to come over, and directly wrote a letter to the rising sun, asking him to take it down, and directly hand it over to the cronies scouts, so that they could quickly set off and go directly to Wutai to find Zhao Mosheng......
