With the appearance of 10 senior musketeers of the Taiping Army with a full 100-man team, the strength of Hong Tiancheng's troops has increased from more than 100 remnants to more than 1,100!

Each Taiping Army 100-man team has 104 people, and 10 is 1040 people!

According to the military standards of this era, Hong Tiancheng can already proclaim himself the commander of an independent combat corps.

As a group of veteran Taiping Army musketeers with red turbans and arquebuses drove into the ruins of the town, the surrendered townspeople were startled and thought that the troops of the Crimean Khanate were coming......

The civilians of this era were very short-sighted, they rarely traveled far on weekdays, and many of them had never seen what the Crimean Khanate army was like, but they did know that the Tatars looked different from the whites.

The Crimean Khanate was ruled by Mongol descendants who split off after the fall of the Golden Horde, and most of them were Mongols mixed with various races, slightly similar to the Asian-yellow people of the East, and looked similar to the blind white Polish civilians......

After this siege, there were about 1,000 white townspeople and harmless women and children who surrendered, in fact, there were more than 1,000 militiamen who took up arms when the people resisted in the towns, and 1,000 people in the towns with a population of more than 3,000.

Fortunately, Hong Tiancheng is a person who pays attention to practical interests, although he doesn't care about the lives of white people, he knows very well that the population itself is also an important resource, and the living slave cannon fodder is much more useful than the dead aliens.

Since most of the buildings in the town were burned to the ground, Hong Tiancheng only walked around the town and returned to the camp set up outside, with thousands of younger brothers, it was not difficult to build a comfortable camp tent in the wilderness, and the raw materials of course came from robbing the Poles of supplies.

Although burning, killing and looting is shameful, we have to admit that this way is indeed a way to 'get rich' quickly in the shortest possible time.

Under Hong Tiancheng's order, Kaspersky the dog quickly identified the church personnel among the surrendered civilians, as for the government officials and minor nobles in the town, they had already been killed by the red-eyed Taiping soldiers during the war, and when Hong Tiancheng did not give a clear order to stay alive, the Taiping soldiers would naturally deal with the enemy according to their own wishes.

As the head of the last resistance force of the militia, the mayor of Loren was not only captured and tortured alive by the Taiping soldiers, but his inhuman-looking corpse was also hung high on the half-burned town tower, always warning the surviving Poles that this is the fate of the rebel Taiping army!

After capturing the town, the Taiping army seized sufficient firearms, and the more than 100 remaining Taiping soldiers were all redressed as firearms, and of course, there were many cold weapons on their bodies.

The more than 100 surviving Taiping soldiers were organized by Hong Tiancheng into a 100-person personal guard team, because they did not have a military commander who was good at commanding operations independently, so Hong Tiancheng planned to let them be responsible for protecting their own safety and miscellaneous functions on weekdays, so that it would also be convenient for Hong Tiancheng to command this group of Taiping soldiers who did not have grassroots officers.

You must know that for those Taiping Army hundred-member teams that have been formed, Hong Tiancheng only needs to give an order in a general direction, and they can carry it out perfectly, whether it is military or management and suppression, it is not a problem.

Hong Tian became a convenient management, numbering the senior musketeers of the Taiping Army with ten full 100 people as one to ten teams, responsible for various external affairs and combat missions, and the more than 100 Taiping soldiers who had experienced brutal siege street battles became Hong Tiancheng's personal bodyguards and servants who served him in daily life.

It's not that Hong Tiancheng doesn't want to take out a few Polish girls to serve him, and he can have a healthy and beneficial interaction between men and women if he has nothing to do, but Hong Tiancheng is very afraid of death, so he has no sense of trust in this group of Polish women whose family and friends died in his hands, and he is not afraid of 10,000 just in case, if he is taken by the pillow person when he sleeps at night, Hong Tiancheng will die blindly......

Although Hong Tiancheng said that he was greedy for enjoyment, he knew that this aspect of the matter had to be slowly figured out, and he was now just a large-scale and very murderous leader in the eyes of the world, and when he really cleared his identity and became a king, it was the time to enjoy it with peace of mind.

It didn't take long for the surviving clergy in the town church to be escorted to Hong Tiancheng, because these clergy did not participate in the resistance battle, and surrendered as soon as the Taiping army entered the city, so they were not killed.

As for Hong Tiancheng's intention to gather the Catholic clergy, it was naturally to make better use of the nearly 1,000 Polish civilians who had been captured.

Under the 'screening' of the Taiping Army, among the thousands of Polish civilians, there was not a single useless old man or child, all of them were young men and women, and because the women were weak-willed to resist, women accounted for as many as seventy percent!

What makes Hong Tiancheng feel pity is that these women are all from ordinary townspeople and villager families, and the real children of nobles and wealthy businessmen either died in the war, or were sent to heaven by their own people when the city was broken, ensuring that they would not be insulted......

The main reason why the Polish nobles and wealthy merchants in the towns were so decisive was that the Tatar bandits had treated the Polish nobles and the wives and daughters of the rich merchants very harshly, and after the torture, the female slaves who were either relegated to the lowest class were either worse than dead or tortured and killed.

In this era, there is no 'tofu Shih Tzu' for women among the commoners, because of the right of the nobles to do whatever they want, if there are really beautiful women in the commoners, they will often become the 'personal belongings' of the nobles, and naturally, they will be separated from the social status of the commoners, until they are old.

In the Polish-Lithuanian kingdom in the 17th century, the powerful and rich really could have no scruples, because they didn't need to be legal about commoner women!

Powerful white men naturally don't want to have green heads after they die, so they simply send their mistresses, wives and concubines and daughters to heaven to repent before they die......

As a result, it can be imagined that Hong Tiancheng really has no interest......

He felt that he was the leader of more than a thousand corps, so he couldn't treat himself badly, anyway, there would be opportunities in the future!

Hong Tiancheng's taste is still quite high.

"My lord, four priests and deacons have been brought."

Escorted by the Taiping soldiers, four bearded Poles dressed in dirty monks' robes walked into the tent with frightened faces.
