Chapter 603: Opportunity to Lead the Troops
None of the hundreds of elite rebels who rushed into the east gate escaped the net, and all of them were wiped out......
Facing the street full of blood and gunsmoke in front of him, battalion commander Yang Zhongwei directly showed a bloodthirsty satisfied smile on his face.
Under the gaze of a group of subordinates, he directly opened his mouth and ordered: "Musketeers, all bayonets...... Rush out of the county seat and eliminate the remaining rebel army outside the east gate...... The recruit company, in a platoon unit, reinforced several other city gates...... ""After the reinforcements arrived, the defenders in three directions immediately opened the city gates and launched a counterattack against the rebel forces outside the city...... Inform all officers at and above the company commander level that during the counteroffensive, all counteroffensive units should capture as many prisoners as possible......"
Five hundred elites were in front of their eyes, and they were all wiped out in such a short period of time. The shock to the other rebel armies outside the East Gate is absolutely incomparable......
In their eyes, the elite of the 500 chaotic army can be easily wiped out by the defenders, not to mention the rabble with less than 400 people......
So, when the closed gate of the east gate was opened again, hundreds of tigers and leopards, armed with muskets with good bayonets, rushed out of the city gate and rushed towards them.
These chaotic soldiers, who were terrified of the strong combat effectiveness of the Tiger and Leopard Army, their already pale faces became even more pale at this moment.
In addition, in the night, they have long been in chaos, losing the command of their respective leaders......
Hundreds of rebels, as soon as they saw the shadow of the Tiger and Par Army, completely lost the courage to continue fighting, and fled backwards. What's more, he even threw away his weapons directly, knelt on the ground, and waited for the Haw Par Army to come and capture him......
The idea of defeat and surrender, like a plague, quickly spread among the hundreds of rebels......
In the blink of an eye, there were hundreds of people who surrendered on their knees and were killed by the Haw Par Army's muskets. The remaining more than 200 rebels disappeared directly into the dark night......
"Rabbits will bite when they are forced to hurry, let alone these rebels...... Order the brothers to stop the pursuit, clean up the battlefield, and wait for dawn to clean up these chaotic soldiers one by one......"
It started from the time of the child, and it took two hours for the shouting and killing sound around the county seat to completely quiet down......
Because there were too many prisoners of the rebels, there were more than 600 people. Influenced Yang Zhongwei and directly sent the prisoners to the barracks for care. At the same time, several members of the Standing Committee, including the Supervisory Envoy, also gathered at the garrison camp again with excitement on their faces......
Looking at Yang Zhongwei, who was sitting on the main seat with a calm face, the deputy county commander in charge of criminal law, he directly said with excitement on his face: "Battalion Commander Yang, with the cooperation of the internal guards, this official has raided a total of six landlords and gentry here, and captured more than 280 people in the courtyard...... As for the other results, although no specific statistics have been made, with the wealth of these families, at least 100,000 taels of silver can be confiscated......"
As soon as the words fell, another deputy county commander couldn't help but let out an exclamation: "So much, Lord Zhou, you are not wrong......
At this time, Yang Zhongwei suddenly spoke: "With Ben Jiang's understanding of these households, 100,000 taels of silver is still less...... In addition, Ben will also be able to clearly tell everyone that this 100,000 taels of silver is just the beginning......"
Speaking of this, Yang Zhongwei's face instantly became stern......
Facing the gazes of several Standing Committee members looking at him, he replied: "According to the order of the palace, all the landlords and gentry who participated in the riot last night, for whatever reason, will first raid their homes, and then go to trial and convict...... So, starting tomorrow, all of us here are busy......"
"Therefore, the general decided that from tomorrow, the garrison battalion will take the prisoners in the barracks as a platoon, and copy the ...... one by one."
"In addition, I would like to remind everyone that in the process of raiding the house, if the general and the inspector are found to have committed corruption...... Then I'm sorry, according to the laws laid down by the royal palace, the punishment will be severe......"
There are dozens of landlords and gentry, and all the families and nurseries they can concentrate on are more than 2,000 people.
However, after last night's battle, hundreds of people were captured, and thousands of people were killed, not even a third of the original ones actually escaped. What's more, there is only a third of the family guards left, most of them are unarmed, and they are full of fear of the Haw Par Army!
Under such circumstances, the county government's raid on the house could not have gone more smoothly......
In less than five days, these landlords and gentry were reduced to prisoners. As for their property, without exception, all belonged to the royal palace......
The main hall of the Beiwang Palace, the Beiwang Weizheng, and the chief of staff of the Haw Par Army, Sun Chengzong, were discussing the reorganization of the Haw Par Army. Zhao Yun and Luo Yangxing rushed directly into the lobby with excitement on their faces.
Zhao Yun, who has a straightforward personality, didn't care what Wei Zheng was doing, and said directly......
"Lord Wang, if you win, our Tiger and Par Army will win again...... All the riots* that occurred in Beizhili and Shandong provinces were all eliminated. Not only that, but we also seized all kinds of finances worth 18 million taels of silver in this storm*, which can be described as a huge ......."
As soon as Zhao Yun finished speaking, the excited Luo Yangxing said: "Lord Wang, I have lived up to the love of the prince here and achieved very great results...... According to statistics, a total of 59 civil and military officials above the seventh rank participated in this riot*, including many county commanders and prefects...... However, I am sure that there must still be a lot of court spies in the two provinces that have not been exposed, so I will definitely use these civil and military officials who have been used to dig out all the spies hidden by the court in the two provinces......"
Hearing this result, Wei Zheng's eyes lit up at the same time, and he subconsciously spoke: "Chief of Staff, let's really come whatever we want?" Just now, I was still worried, and the border army of the imperial court that was intercepted by us did not have any silver, no, Commander Zhao and Lord Luo sent us silver......"
Speaking of this, Wei Zheng immediately shifted his attention to Zhao Yun and Luo Yangxing. Facing the two people, he said with a satisfied face: "Well done, Commander Zhao, it seems that you, the garrison commander, are still very competent." With less than 8,000 veterans and 20,000 recruits, almost 100,000 people in the two provinces were wiped out...... Good, very good play......"
Zhao Yun's face turned red suddenly, and he replied to Wei Zheng: "Lord Wang, although there are many people who are in rebellion, they are all a group of rabble. Although we are all new recruits, we are very well equipped. If you can't win against those rebellious soldiers with such good muskets and grenades, then my old Zhao's battle all these years will be in vain......"
"In addition, if I have the opportunity, I still want to leave the garrison and go to the field army, even if I am a division commander...... Every day in the garrison headquarters, I am almost crazy, and I can't touch a real battle......"
After Zhao Yun's complaint was finished, Wei Zheng not only did not get angry, but instead showed a meaningful smile......
Then, under Zhao Yun's incomprehensible gaze, he spoke: "Since you want to lead the field troops, then this king has fulfilled your wish this time...... This time, we intercepted more than 50,000 elite border troops in Beizhili and the major border passes...... With so many people, in addition to replenishing the losses of the other three armies, two more corps could be formed...... The king's idea is to make you the commander of an army, and as for the position of garrison commander, you will also be in charge for the time being......"
Hearing this, Zhao Yun's eyes immediately shot out two scorching gazes.
Stared at Wei Zheng and asked, "Lord Wang, I can really go to the field army to lead the troops......
Wei Zheng affirmed: "Not only you, but also the chief of staff must also serve as the commander of an army...... As for you, as soon as you become a military commander, there will be a battle waiting for you, and that is to crusade against North Korea...... Since he dares to send troops to attack our Tiger and Leopard Army, he must be prepared to withstand the wrath of our Tiger and Leopard Army......"
At this time, not only a pair of eyes, but Wei Zheng's entire face was replaced by scorching heat. He assured Wei Zheng loudly.
"Please rest assured, when the time comes, I will definitely make the Korean country pay a very heavy price......"
After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun suddenly thought of something, and continued to ask: "Lord Wang, when will I lead the troops and accept the ...... of the troops?"
Wei Zheng shook his head and replied, "Don't worry, it will take at least another month...... You must know that most of the tens of thousands of officers in the elite of the border army are gone...... If we want to rebuild these tens of thousands of elites into combat effectiveness, there is only one way, and that is to completely disrupt them and reappoint officers ......"
"Therefore, before becoming a military commander, you still have one more thing to do, that is, to evaluate the merits of all the officers and men of the garrison troops in Beizhili and Shandong provinces, and the promotion that should be promoted, and the rewards that should be changed to rewards. And according to their ability, a part of the officers will be selected to serve in the field troops...... This is because the shortage of officers at all levels in these two armies, which have not yet been formed, has reached almost seventy percent ......."
After finishing speaking, Wei Zheng quickly shifted his gaze to Luo Yangxing on the side and continued......
"Lord Luo, you are indispensable for the internal defense to achieve such great results in such a short period of time. However, the current situation facing our Tiger and Leopard Army can never be described as an exaggeration in the words "being attacked by the enemy on the belly and back", so the task of internal defense is still very heavy......"
"In the next time, in addition to continuing to dig up the spies hidden by the imperial court in Beizhili and Shanxi provinces, the internal guard also has an important task, that is, the officers in the army......"
"Of the 50,000 officers and men of the Multilateral Army that we intercepted, the number of officers exceeded 500...... You must find out the background of these officers in a short period of time, and dig out all the people who belong to the imperial court......"
"For us, the army is the capital where we can stand here, and problems can occur anywhere, but the army must not have problems...... "R1152
